A/N: I'm giving credit to Magiccatprincess' giving me permission to do this. I don't own Big Time Rush or Charmed or the superpowers.
This was "The Fourth Sister" I had to do MAJOR changes, but hope you like it. Read and Review. Also, if you don't know this was between "The Wedding from Hell" and "The Truth Is Out There… and It Hurts".
Ch. 1 The Fifth Brother
In a dark blue bedroom, stood an average teenaged male as he rummages around his room. He finds a small statue and places it on the rug in front of him. He fetches an old fashioned mirror and places it front of him as well. Avalon was dressed in black jeans and a black tee and red tips in his hair; he has black candles positioned around him. He grabs a lighter and lights them around him. Except for one, he sits down and gets into meditating position. He then lights it.
Avalon sighs in deeply as he chants, "Come to me Kali. I conjure thee Kali. Come to me Kali. I conjure thee Kali."
In the mirror, a flash of white crosses the surface before a pale looking woman appears wearing a pure white dress. Her blonde hair and blue eyes made her so welcoming, Kali.
Kali speaks nicely, "Don't worry Avalon, I'm here."
Avalon smiles happily, "It's been over a week."
Kali states sweetly, "I know. Be patient Avalon."
Avalon protests, "But I've done everything that you've asked. I've followed the Charmed Ones. I know their every move."
Kali comments kindly, "Which will all become valuable in good time. You must trust me. You must make them want you as badly as you want them."
Avalon nervously looks at the closet but then quickly smiles, "I talked to my mom today."
Kali asks worriedly, "How is she?"
Avalon shrugs his shoulders as he states, "I don't know. She's better...I think. I miss her." Towards the end of that sentence, he frowns sadly at of how much he missed her.
Kali replies with a kind smile, "She's gonna be so proud of you."
Avalon asks hopefully, "Yeah? I hope so."
Kali asks Avalon, "Are you ready to receive your power?"
Avalon pumps his first in the air with a big smile as he states, "Hell yeah. You know I am."
He chuckles a little, thinking about how awesome his gift might be.
Kali proclaims, "Remember, it's a sacred power. If I give it to you, you must use it only as I say."
Avalon shakes his head in agreement, "I-I will. I promise."
Kali instructs Avalon, "Very well. Reach for the mirror. Put out your hands. Feel the power." Avalon reaches his hands towards the mirror. His hands begin to glow as he receives the power, but he closes his eyes as he feels the power going through him. His hands stop glowing and he puts them down.
Kali continues, "You know what to do. Go to Kendall, Logan, James, and Carlos."
Avalon grabs he coat and exits the room, he slams the door hurriedly. Kali smirks and then blue electricity appear in the mirror. Kali shows her evil demon self.
Meanwhile...
Kendall was sitting on the orange couch, holding papers in his hand and sighs sadly. Another reward flyer for a lost pet. Logan walks into the living and takes a spot next to Kendall as he turns on the TV.
Logan sighs annoyed, "Uh... well I think I see... yep. There's definitely nothing on."
Kendall nods to himself, "Definitely."
James enters the living room with a mug of hot chocolate and makes his way around the sofa while saying, "Can't believe we've the most channels around here and nothing to watch."
Carlos walks into the living room with a bowl of cereal and sits next to Logan on the couch while James was looking at the TV set.
Carlos looks at Kendall and asks with a mouthful of cereal, "What's he looking at?"
Logan sighs, "Another lost pet flyer. I guess he feels for them in someway."
Before Carlos could say a thing, there was a loud knock on the door and all; except Kendall, looked at the door.
James looks down to seeing Logan and Carlos staring back at him. He rolls his eyes as he knew what they were implying, "Fine...I'll get the door."
James opens the door to 2J and smiles widely at the figure, "Kendall...It's for you!" James calls out.
That made Kendall looked up from the flyer and he sees Jo walking with James.
Kendall glares at James as he mouths, 'Oh my god!'
James points to Jo while she was staring at Kendall. "Kendall?"
"Huh?" Kendall asks after finish sending a dagger glare at James.
"What's the matter," she asks concerned.
"He found a lost pet flyer and wishes he knew how to help the owner," Carlos explains after setting his empty bowl down onto the table.
Jo looks to Kendall and comments, "Aw. Have you tried any of the shelters?"
Kendall sighs sadly as he looks back to the paper, "Yeah. Nothing."
Jo said, "Well...I'm sure someone is bound to find the..."
She walks over to Kendall and sees the flyer and finishes with a soft smile, "cat."
Kendall sighs and nods, "Yeah."
"Anyway..." Kendall said as he stands up, " Uh, thanks for coming. I'm sure you must be hungry after your rehearsal."
"Rehearsal?" Jo parrots shocked as she places her hands on her hips.
James rushes over to Kendall and puts his arm around Kendall's shoulder, "Oh, that's just Kendall being Kendall. Just worrying about your career and all. So much he forgot that you've gotten the day off. Think of him as your big brother. Believe me, I know I do."
Everyone laughs a little after the comment while Kendall was looking at James.
He states with a smile looking at Jo, "Isn't he a scream."
Jo asks Kendall, "Would you mind giving us a moment. I promise, I'll be right back, OK?"
Kendall answers, "But...you just got here."
"I know and I'm sorry, but my boyfriend just arrive and we're going to be busy most of the day. Okay?" Jo explains with a sad smile.
She walks backwards into a wall and Kendall cries out, "Oh careful."
"Oh," Jo stated a little shocked she forgot the wall there. She laughs awkwardly and then bumps into a picture frame. "Oh! I'm so sorry," she states as she looks at the picture of the four guys.
Kendall walks over to her and asks, "You all right?"
Jo waves her hand dismissively, "Yeah. Yeah. I'll just..."
She picks up the picture and sets it back on the wall, "I'm fine. Really."
"You sure," James questions as he walks behind Kendall.
"Yeah, you good?" Kendall rephrase James question.
"Yeah," Jo adds with a nod, "I'm good. Bye guys."
James and Kendall watch Jo leave.
James state lowly, "Oh. Quite possibly the finest body in the city."
"In the state," Kendall retorts.
James replies, "In all the land."
"Just remember, she has a boyfriend James. She's taken," Kendall said looking at James.
"But if she didn't I know for sure that I would-" James was interrupted by Kendall.
"I saw her first. Meaning I get dibs on her for being the oldest as well," Kendall stated.
"Nuh-uh," James protested.
"Uh-huh," Kendall retorts.
They walk black to where Logan and Carlos were, as they try to find something to watch on TV.
Few minutes later...
Jo passes a flyer on a sign and walks by a car. Avalon is in the car and sees Jo walk away. He turn around in his seat and looks back through the rear window. He looks at the flyer and a bolt of electricity flashes from his eyes and hits it. It burns slowly and he smiles brightly at the power.
Noon...
Carlos was in the kitchen, taking a cinnamon roll out of the microwave and puts it on a plate. He walks over to the fridge and opens it. He grabs a carton of milk and pours a glass of milk. He walks back to the tray with the cinnamon bun and place the milk on it. He picks it up and walks to the living room.
"Hmmm?" Carlos tilts his head to the side as he shrugs.
"Kendall...Here you go. Apple cinnamon?" Carlos asks Kendall as he hands it over to him.
"Right. Thanks," Kendall nods as he looks out the window; he stood watching Jo and her boyfriend carefully.
Logan and James slid down the slide as James states, "Trust me Loges. One hot night is all you guys need to get back on track."
The walk over to the balcony and converse more.
"Yeah. I just hope you're right," Logan nods nervously.
"You two are perfect for each other. Just like Jo is perfect for-" James was cut off again by Kendall, "Ahem."
James waves nervously, "Hey...Kendall. How's it going?"
"Oh...you know. Good and all," Kendall states as he studies Jo and her boyfriend.
"Ah...Um, are you sure?" Logan asks as he looks out the balcony.
"Uh..." Kendall said as he ignores Logan's statement.
Carlos looks over to James and points out, "Nice outfit."
Kendall turns around and sees James wearing one of his navy blue dress shirt with black long khakis.
Kendall states after eying James's outfit, "A little too nice...for 9 o'clock in the morning with no place to go."
James muses slightly, "Hmm. I'm glad you like it."
Kendall drinks some milk and looks back to Jo and her boyfriend.
"Spying on her, I see. That's new for you Kendall," James comments.
Logan speaks, "Uh...James, come here. I need you for something for tonight's date."
James doesn't move and Logan yells, "James!"
When that didn't work, he grabs James's arm and heads towards the kitchen. Once they were out of earshot, Logan releases James's wrist and intensely stares him down.
"I think that Kendall likes Jo," Logan stated as he gets a mug and begins making coffee.
"What's not to like? She's a great girl," James replies with a smile.
"No. I mean... really likes her. Like likes her." Logan explains as he still pours his cup.
James asks obliviously, "Your point being?"
"Never mind. Classic James," Logan answers as he shakes his head.
"Wait..." James said as the words sank in, "Define that."
"Define what?" Logan asks still looking at his cup.
"Classic James," James repeated.
Carlos answers as he walks into the kitchen, "I think you know."
James gasps shocked by Carlos's answer while Logan passes him the cup of coffee.
James speaks, "Okay. Look Logan and Carlos, I think we need to put some major closure on this or we're gonna be in rocking chairs slurping oatmeal out of rubber spoons and I'm still gonna hear about Roxanne."
James turns to Carlos and asks, "Carlos, am I a girlfriend thief?"
"Totally," Carlos said as he looks around the table.
"Besides Roxanne, whom again Logan, I never touched. Okay?" James said as he looks to Carlos because he 'Hmm.'
Carlos comments as he faces James, "My girlfriend Becca Wilson."
James laughs a little in disbelief with what Carlos said, but Carlos's face was serious.
"Becca Wilson...Sixth grade Becca Wilson?!" James asks astonished.
"You kissed her at homecoming," Logan explains, "It traveled around school fast."
"No...I didn't kiss her at homecoming. I was helping her because she choked on her food," James stated annoyed.
"Oh please. You were all over her with your body and face and swag...whatever," Kendall announces as he walks into the kitchen. He pours himself a cup and looks at James expression.
"I didn't even looked like this back then. I wasn't even half as amazing as I am now. Not to mention my swag level was almost nonexistent back then," James defended himself.
"James...you've always had swag and mixed with your body and face. Well..." Kendall trails off not wanting to start a fight.
Logan states as he looks between Kendall, and James. "So, I think I'll just let you two work this out on your own. But, um, just remember, I get the house tonight. Just Camille and me. No warlocks, no innocents to protect and especially, no brothers or family."
Logan leaves with his mug and Carlos looks between James and Kendall as he excuses himself, "Yeah...that reminds Misty needs me for something. So...Bye!"
Carlos rushes to the door and Kendall and James were just staring at each other closely. Both of them take a sip of coffee.
Kendall starts, "So you know... it's not like either one of us has a problem finding girls. Right?"
James snorts, "Please."
Kendall lowers his mug and continues, "So if one of us... got Jo, whom by the way already has a boyfriend,... it'd be OK with the other one. We clear?"
James states still holding his mug, "Absolutely. Positively correct."
Kendall smirks, "So we can just consider this a friendly competition."
James suggests with a smile, "Sibling rivalry."
"War," Kendall responded with a stern smile.
"Exactly," James said as he nods his head.
At another place...
There's a two-story building, completely white as a young boy enters it. He rushes through the complex and enters his room. Avalon is lying on his bed writing in his journal while listening to music.
Avalon mutters to himself, "Dear Journal..."
Before he could write more, he heard someone knocking on his door and he looks at it.
A feminine voice calls him, "Avalon, sweety, open the door."
Avalon looks back to his journal and writes as he mumbles, "Life sucks here."
The woman states from the other side of the door, "I'm gonna be late for work."
The blonde slightly portly woman, who was wearing a brown small, short sweater over her blue outfit, opens the door. Avalon puts his journal under his bed and sits up from the foot of the bed.
He looks up to her and states not even caring, "So that part about this being my room, that was a lie?"
The woman replies, "It's my apartment Avalon."
"So you keep reminding me Aunt Jackie," Avalon retorts with some attitude.
Aunt Jackie looks around the room and blurts the first thing that comes to mind, "Why don't you get some light and air in here?"
She goes to open the curtain, but Avalon stands up and puts his arms over his chest as he protests. "Because I like it dark and stale."
Aunt Jackie stops and turns around, facing Avalon with sad eyes.
She asks hurt, "Why are you so antagonistic to me?"
"How come you haven't called my mom yet?" Avalon quickly asks.
"What?" Aunt Jackie replied sounding stun.
Avalon explains, "To see how she's doing, or just to say "hello"? It would help her you know. I mean, it's not like she's got a lot of family."
Aunt Jackie crosses her arms over her chest and comments, "She has to take responsibility for her own actions."
Avalon counters, "She's not in jail. She's in rehab. She didn't do anything wrong to take responsibility for. She's sick and that's it. It's nothing to be ashamed of."
Aunt Jackie drops her arms by her side and speaks calmly, "Whatever."
She leaves Avalon's room and he slams the door close. He walks back to his bed and continues to write while listening to Slipknot.
During that moment...
Misty and Carlos were at a Blockbuster, they were searching for a video to watch at Misty's place.
Carlos and Misty were in different isle and Carlos grabs one tape, "Ah, ever see "Lethal Weapon 3"?"
He turns around and was about to hand it to her until she said as she still searched for a tape, "Not very romantic."
"Right. Of course," Carlos speaks as he slowly walks back and puts the video back.
Misty gasps happily, "Ooh!"
Carlos turns to her and she continues, "Hey, look-y here."
Misty shows him the video as she asks, "How about "Double Indemnity"?"
Carlos looks around the place before whispering to her, "It's black and white."
He goes back to looking for a video as Misty whispers back, "Right."
She puts the tape back where it was. A Blockbuster worker comes to them and states, "Video paralyzes."
"Excuse me?" Misty said confused.
The worker states, "You're probably two minutes away from leaving without a rental. Mind if I help? After all, I am a pro."
"Sure," Carlos nods to the guy.
The worker leaves as they both look to each other and smile as they turn their heads to opposite directions.
Misty speaks to Carlos as she eyes the video collection, "Doesn't matter what we pick anyway. We'll probably never get around to watching it."
"Oh yeah? Pretty cocky there," Carlos said as he walks over to her.
Misty retorts, "Actually what I meant was something always seems to come up. Get in our way."
Carlos defends, "That's not true."
Misty tilts her head at him as he thinks about it, "OK, well, maybe it's sometimes true, but there's always a perfectly good reason."
"Carlos... there's never a perfectly good reason. As a matter of fact, there's never usually even a reason at all. Good, bad, or otherwise," Misty stated annoyed.
"All right," Carlos said with a smile as she moves closer to him, "You...me...alone...tonight. Nothing and I mean nothing will get in our way. Guaranteed."
Misty ponders as she puts her arms around Carlos's neck, "I'll hold you to that."
Carlos whispers with a smile, "Okay."
They kiss for a second, but the worker comes up to them with a video.
The worker proclaims, "I got it."
He interrupts their kiss as he announces the name of the movie, ""Body Heat"."
Carlos and Misty look to each other and smile as they state together, "We'll take it."
The three of them run off to the cash register and Carlos and Misty buy the movie.
Sometime later...
Avalon enters his room and repeats the actions he did before to summon Kali. He is in front of his mirror.
Avalon chants, "I conjure thee Kali."
In a white flash from the mirror, Kali appears. "I'm here Avalon."
Avalon quickly speaks, "I'm going crazy here Kali. I can't wait any longer."
Kali comments gently, "The Big Time Rush brothers don't understand our way. They don't know the full uses and joys of their powers."
Avalon simply suggests, "Then I'll show them."
Kali offers, "You must gain their trust first. You must let them welcome you into their coven."
Avalon nods understandingly.
He adds, "I won't disappoint you. I swear."
Kali speaks, "Then it's time."
The closet door opens and Avalon goes to it and gets a cat as it meows.
"Take the cat back to the Palm Woods," Kali states calmly.
Avalon pets the cat and smiles wide.
Evening...
Kendall looks into the lobby and sees Jo sitting down, reading her lines. He fixes himself and then goes over to Jo.
Kendall asks Jo, "About done for the day?"
Jo answers as she reaches the line of the manuscript, "Just about."
Kendall speaks to Jo, "Uh...well, Logan's got a date so we kinda gotta clear out. I was thinking about catching a movie."
He looks at her and asks, "Wanna go?"
"I can't do it." Jo stated and Kendall was a little hurt as she raises from her seat and goes to another corner of the room.
"OK," Kendall said as he sees Jo walk pass him.
"You know...It's hard enough that I've to do this. But with you here, it makes everything ten's times harder. However...I can't seem to stop this feeling I get when I'm with you," Jo said as she reads the lines and Kendall understands what is happening.
"Oh...you studying you're lines?" Kendall asks as Jo shakes the book in front of her.
"Oh, right. Ha...You want to be polished up for your new acting role. Keep practicing, don't wanna be stuck. Restrained. You don't want to lose your touch," Kendall said as Jo nods from her book.
"Sort of like risotto with minute rice," Kendall adds and Jo giggles a little, "It's a cooking analogy I learned from Carlos."
"Are you worrying about me?" Jo asks still reading the manuscript.
"Yeah, just don't call me big bro. Okay?" Kendall said and both laugh.
"Yeah," Jo comments as they laugh and she closes her script. "Anyway uh...I have to work for New Town High tomorrow. Maybe later I can talk to you and your band mates?"
"Or better yet, why not come over...Say about lunchtime?" Kendall offers.
Jo smiles, "Okay."
Kendall repeats, "Okay."
Jo asks Kendall, "So what time's that movie?"
Next they hear screaming and Kendall runs out the door, he meets with James and both see a car accident. A small group of people were gather there and Kendall and James weave their way through. Once in the center, they found a young boy holding a cat.
He looks up and heaves as he smiles, "I got it."
Minutes later...
Kendall and James both go to the young boy as the paramedics help clean him.
The boy answers their questions and then they heard a small gasp. "Tiger!"
They see a little girl running to them, "Tiger! Oh Tiger!"
She takes the cat out of the boy's hands and pets him while asking the guy, "Where did you find him? We were worried sick. He's been missing for a long while."
The boy states as he eyes Kendall and James, "I was just walking by and I um, saw one of your flyers and poof. I saw the cat crossing the street and ran up to grab him. It's funny how he was there. Like magic."
Kendall and James both laugh nervously as they walk closer to the boy. Kendall speaks, "Wow. I hope you didn't hurt yourself too bad."
The guy shrugs, "I'm fine."
Kendall and James look to the paramedics and they nod, confirming that the boy was fine. He jumps off the truck and soon it drives off as the crowd dissipates. Both eye each other and silently agreed.
Minutes later...
The three of them were in 2J as they walk over to the living room. James and the guy take a seat on the couch while Kendall stays standing.
"I bet you're hungry after that heroic rescue?," Kendall asks.
"Actually...I'm a little bit hungry," the boy said with a nod.
"Well then...Let's see if we can find you something to eat," James said as he pushes himself off the couch and walks to the kitchen with Kendall.
In the kitchen...
Kendall whispers to James, "I think something is up."
He grabs some left over cookies and puts it on a plate while James took a pitcher and pours a cup of tea.
"What?" James asks softly.
"I don't know...it's just. Too big a coincide," Kendall states lowly.
"Let's just feed him and let him leave quickly," James stated lowly as they walk back into the living room.
"Here you go," Kendall offers the plate as he sets it down nicely right in front of the boy.
They both sit on the couch as the boy eats and drinks.
"You must've been pretty hungry," James stated because of how the boy was wolfing down the food.
The boy looks up at James and nods while he eats.
"Okay...can you explain how you found Tiger?" Kendall asks the boy while raising an eyebrow.
"Just like I said, found him across the street. Then...well, you know the rest," the boy states.
"And he didn't try to scratch you or anything?" Kendall questions.
The boy nods, "No. I guess I'm charmed like that."
Kendall and James laugh nervously at his statement.
Knock! Knock!
James and Kendall look to the door and then to each other, Kendall quickly went to the door and opened it. He sees Jo there and laughs a little, remembering what he did.
"Sorry about that Jo. I didn't mean to blow you off," Kendall answers truthfully.
"It's okay. Now, you'll let me know when we can go to the movies right? I mean...I wanna clean up before the movie," Jo said looking at herself.
"Movie?" James announces as he emerges besides Kendall, "What movie?"
"A war movie," Kendall quickly stated.
"I love war movies. Mind if I tag along?" James asks the two.
"Uh sure. Why not? I'll be right back," Jo said as she leaves.
Kendall glares at James while he puts a big smile on his face.
Avalon asks, "You guys aren't going out are you?"
Both turn to him the boy behind them.
"Oh...well actually, we made plans for tonight. Just first let me get my wallet," Kendall said as he tries to find his wallet.
"Uh, what's your name?" James asks.
Avalon politely declines, "Oh. No. No. I don't want your money."
The door open and saw Logan and Camille at the door.
Kendall and James both said at the same time, "Hey Camille!"
"Hey guys," Camille waves her hand at them as Logan had with mouth open wide.
Before they all went inside so they weren't blocking the hallway and Logan was going to say something when the door opened and Misty and Carlos walked into the room.
Camille, James, and Kendall and said, "Hi Misty."
Misty replies back with a smile, "Hi."
Logan speaks slightly angered as he eyed his brothers, "Hey. I thought we all had plans tonight?"
"This boy just found the missing cat AND didn't get a wound from a car accident," James explains why there was another person in the group.
"Avalon," Avalon introduces himself to the group as he raises his hand.
Logan said as he pulled out his wallet, "Well that's great. Um, is fifty bucks enough?"
Avalon states as he stands up, "Uh, I don't... I don't want a reward. We need to talk."
Carlos asks eying the guy, "About what?"
The four boys' faces dropped and lost color as Misty eyed them all carefully.
"Uh..." Carlos began to speak but spots Jo and comes up with something as, "Misty Harris, this is Jo Taylor."
"Hi," Jo waves and Misty waves back at her.
Carlos then pulls Camille with Misty, "This is our friend Camille."
He pushes the three of them together, "You three chat and we'll be right back."
"Okay," James said as he and Kendall lead Avalon away.
"Hey, did you hear about the wedges that are coming soon?" Camille asks the girls and soon they were talking amongst themselves.
"Thanks again," Kendall said as they push Avalon away.
Carlos and Logan look back to Camille and Misty, and then back to the guy.
They walk towards him as Carlos speaks kindly, Yeah...I'm sorry, but you can't stay."
Logan adds, "Now really isn't a good time."
Avalon protests, "I'm...I'm not leaving. Don't you understand? I'm one of you."
He points at light bulb and starts to make it brighter.
"No!" Kendall shouts worryingly.
"James do something!" Logan shouts in his high-pitched voice.
"Um! Uh! Um! As quick as a sneeze I order this scene to freeze!" James chants a spell and stops time, but Avalon doesn't freeze.
Avalon nods, "Very cool."
He walks around the three girls carefully and then to the light bulb that was way too bright.
James speaks as he places his arms over his head, "Um, wait. You didn't... he didn't...you didn't freeze?"
Avalon walks to them and explains, "That's because I'm a witch too."
Logan rubs his ears at the statement, "Um...excuse me? A what?"
Avalon walks closer to them and pleads, "Look, I just want us to be friends."
James looks at the three girls and the light as he states, "Uh, guys, we don't have much time before they unfreeze."
Kendall interrogates him, "How did you find out about us?"
"I'm gonna need more than a couple of seconds for that," Avalon stated waving his hands for emphasis.
Carlos looks over to the group and speaks nervously, "We really need to move things along here."
"Kendall," Logan said eying their older brother.
Kendall understood what he need to do. He looks to Avalon and states, "OK. You need to leave here now."
Avalon replies flabbergasted, "What? A...why?"
Kendall responds quickly, "Because we don't know who the hell you really are, so just leave. OK? Go. Go. Go."
He pushes Avalon while Avalon protests, "No. I'm not leaving."
Kendall growls, "Leave now or else."
"Or else what," Avalon shot back.
Both of them had a staring contest, until Avalon looked down at Kendall's feet and a bolt of lightning escapes his eyes. Logan squints his eyes and redirects the bolt as the bolt went out the balcony. Avalon smiles as he walks away and then time resumes. The light bulb bursts and the girls duck while screaming.
Misty asks shocked, "What the hell was that?"
The three girls slowly stand up and safely remove the glass off themselves. Carlos was waving his hand, hoping to get rid of the smell of smoke; however, it didn't do much.
The girls turn to the guys and Jo asks, "Hey, where did that guy go?"
James starts, "Uh. You know he just-"
Logan squints his eyes quickly, slamming the front door and turning back to the guys.
Logan finishes, "Uh! Uh. Left."
Carlos and Kendall were trying to air out the room.
Late Night...
Avalon explains his time with the Charmed Ones.
He said, "Why wouldn't they accept me. You said if I brought the back the cat and met them I..."
Kali interjects, "Was it the oldest? Was it Kendall that sent you away?"
Avalon nods, "Yes."
Kali speaks, "Avoid him. He's the strongest. You must separate them. Together they're Charmed. Impenetrable."
Avalon looks down and asks, "But what if they don't want me?"
Kali smiles, "Carlos and James will. In their own way. They're searching for someone to relate to. Someone to share thier witchcraft with. Their gift with."
Avalon looks down again and pouts. Kali questions him, "What's the problem?"
"I... I don't know," Avalon stated sounding a little doubtful.
Kali retorts, "You're the one that came to me remember? You're the one who wanted... brothers."
Avalon declares, "I know. I want a family. I don't have anybody. What do you get out of it? I mean, you know, you never really said."
Kali responds, "Warren magic is old and powerful, and I want it. And since they're new to the craft, if I'm ever going to get it, it has to be now...through you. Just do as I say Avalon. Make Carlos and James convent your power, then we'll both get what we want."
Next day...
Logan was walking around the kitchen talking onto his cell with Camille, "Camille...I know yesterday night was supposed to be our night, but...things don't always go as planned."
While Carlos was on his cell with Misty as he brings a towel out from the bathroom.
"Misty, it's not what you think. It's hard to explain. It's just..." Carlos said as he took the movie and then placing it onto the table.
Misty replies from the police station as she reads some files, "Just another one of those things you can't explain. It's a broken record Carlos."
Carlos was spreading butter on his toast as he comments, "Look, I wanted you to stay. You have to believe me."
Misty retorts as she walks around her dad's office, "Then what happened? Why'd you want me to leave all of a sudden?"
Carlos rebuttal quickly, "I told you. Something came up. Band mates stuff. I can't really go into detail without betraying someone's secret."
Misty shakes her head, "Carlos."
Carlos places his two pieces of toast onto his plate and speaks, "Look Misty, I'm unpredictable. OK? That's just part of who I am and you have to accept that because I can't change it."
Misty stops and sits down on the desk as she counters, "I don't want you to change Carlos. I just..."
She sighs as she rubs her head, "I just want to have a normal moment with you. That's all. Is that too much to ask for."
Carlos takes a bie and sets the toast back down, "All right. Let's just try it again. Tonight? Uh, same time? Same place?"
Misty asks with a smile, "Same movie?"
Carlos smells smoke, turns to his hand and he mouths, 'Shit.'
He didn't even noticed he was burning the tape, he quickly looks around and throws it into the sink.
Splash!
Carlos said, "Uh, yeah. OK, so what? 8 o'clock?"
Misty smirks, "I'll try to be there. Bye."
"All right. Bye," Carlos smiles as he ends the call.
He turns to find Logan rushing into the kitchen as he mutters, "If I ever see that little artiest again..."
Kendall and James come in and Kendall goes straight to the fridge while James was going to grab some cereal and a bowl out of the cupboards.
Kendall sighs, "Just got done dodging Jo's questions about him. That was close."
"Too close," James said as he moves himself and his bowl of cereal to the table.
"Way too close. The question is, who is he?" Logan states annoyed.
James points out, "And what does he want?"
Carlos states, "Let us not forget Avalon found Tiger."
"Yeah. He's probably the one who stole the cat in the first place," Kendall said as he bit into his apple.
"Um...Hello? Paranoia check," Carlos said looking at Kendall.
"Carlos, for all we know, he's a warlock. One trying to get us," Logan explains.
"Thank you Logan," Kendall smiles for someone was listening to him. He walks out and everyone follows him to the living room.
James counters, "He can't be. He didn't freeze."
Logan retorts, "Well...that spell was a little bit iffy."
James continues ignoring Logan's statement, "Beside, he said he was a witch."
Kendall sighs, "OK, a bad witch maybe."
James crosses his arms over his chest, "Yeah, a bad witch with a really cool power. Better than mine. That's for sure."
Kendall turns to James accusingly, "Why are you so quick to defend him?"
"I'm not defending him. I'm neutral," James said as he puts his hands up, "And saying he has a cool power."
"Why are you so quick to condemn him?" Carlos asks Kendall.
"So you're defending him now," Kendall states as he looks at Carlos.
Logan comments, "If he is a witch, a good witch, then it might be kinda cool considering he's the first one we've run across."
"Exactly," both James and Carlos said triumphantly.
"Guys," Kendall started after finishing his food, "we don't know anything about him—how he got his powers. How he found out about us?"
Carlos points out, "He tried to tell us, but you two kicked him out."
"Yeah," Login nods, "But, he would have exposed us if I hadn't intervene."
Carlos frowns at Kendall and Logan, "Kendall. Logan He's...he's a kid. Besides, if he is a witch, he probably feels just as alone as we did. Maybe he just needs some friends."
Kendall counters, "Or maybe he's out to destroy us. It wouldn't be the first time."
Carlos said as he turns his head to look to his side, "OK."
"All right, until we find know who he really is, let's just steer clear. OK?" Kendall looks at Carlos as he turns to face Kendall and nods.
Kendall speaks as he remembered what his mom said, "I need to run an errand for mom. Be back soon and remembered steer clear from him."
"Speaking of errands, I need to run one for Gustavo. Meaning hell," Logan stated with a dry laugh.
"Me too," James said as he and Logan sigh.
They leave and Carlos hears the house line rings, he answers it.
"Hello?" Carlos asks, "Avalon?"
"You wanna meet up where? At your school," Carlos said as he walks to his room.
Minutes later...
Carlos was waiting in front of the high school, like Avalon said. He checked his watch and sighs. He thought, 'What is taking this guy so long? I should't even be here.'
He checks his watch one more time until he hears footsteps and turns his head to find it. Avalon comes to the bike fence where Carlos's waiting outside behind him.
"Psst," Avalon tries to get Carlos's attention.
He turns around and sees Avalon, he walks up to the fence. Both begin to walk even though both are on opposite sides of the fence.
"I'm so glad that you came," Avalon stated with a smile.
"I'm glad that you called actually," Carlos said truthfully.
They walk towards a locked gate.
Avalon asks, "Bet you got a few questions huh?"
"A few. Uh, what time does school let out?" Carlos asks.
Avalon looks behind him and then back to Carlos, "Uh, now."
He goes under the gate's chain lock as Carlos stands there shock.
"Uh, whoa. Whoa. Hey, what are you doing?" Carlos asks still shocked what the kid did.
Avalon answers as he gets out of under the chain of the fence, "Oh, the same thing I'm sure you did a thousand times. Am I right?"
"Well..." Carlos trails off as he remembered all the times he did sneak out of school with James.
Avalon smiles, "I am right."
The two begin to walk and Avalon stops in front of Carlos as he bluntly asks, "Um...you didn't tell your asshole dick of a brother about this, did you?"
Carlos states, "Hey, watch your mouth. Kendall had every right to be upset about what you did."
Avalon smiles widely, "It's funny how you knew that I was talking about Kendall and not Logan or James."
He walks and Carlos follows him to a car, "Hey, come on. Let's go for a ride. I'll tell you everything that you want to know."
Meanwhile...
Kendall was out shopping for food. He goes into one isle and bumps into someone.
"Oops," Kendall quickly apologizes, "Sorry."
He helps the person up as she groans. He turns her around and see that it was Jo.
Jo smiles, "We've to stop meeting like this."
Both laugh as they begin to walk.
"You know I used to work in a shop as well," Kendall said to Jo.
"Wow. Did you own the place?" Jo asks.
"No. I was just a worker. Also, I wasn't too shabby." Kendall states.
"Hmm. I'm impressed," Jo said with a smile.
"Good, I mean...um...good that you and me are spending time together here as opposed to the apartment and James," Kendall states
They pass a Quizzo's and Kendall asks, "Uh...you hungry?"
"Actually, yeah." Jo nodded as the two went into the restaurant.
"You know what's so weird," Jo asks as she eats her sub with Kendall.
"What?" Kendall asks intrigued.
"You know, actually, in the Mayan culture, the cook was second in the hierarchy only to the medicine man," Jo stated.
"Mayans? You know about Mayans?" Kendall asks shocked.
"Sorry," Jo said as she looks down.
"No. That's good. You really are a modern renaissance woman," Kendall said. "At least I think I used it right."
Jo nodded, "You did."
"Uh, so, is James here too?" She asks.
"What? James? Here. No. No. No. No. No. No. He's probably at his gay and lesbian group right about now," Kendall stated with a smile. As they both go back to eating their subs in silence.
Evening...
Carlos and Avalon walked into 2J and through the place.
"This is the dining room. That's the conservatory, which is just another fancy name for family room or living room. And finally, Swirly the Slide." Carlos has been guiding Avalon around the place.
"This is so the shit, man. Oh, I love it here," Avalon states as he sits down on the couch.
Carlos sits next to him and Avalon asks, "Any girls you want?"
"I've a girl in mind already, Misty Harris. But my two other brothers are fighting over a girl name Jo," Carlos explains with a small smile.
"And who are the two that like this Jo?" Avalon asks.
"Kendall and James. It's just...Uh, confusing." Carlos answers.
"How come?" Avalon asks confused.
"Well, you see, Kendall and James are having a sort of little competition going over her," Carlos stated as he eyes Avalon.
"Well, it's good that you've someone. I mean, how can no one like you. You're so cool," Avalon comments.
"So...why can't one of them use their powers? Cast a spell on her or something. You do have powers, don't you?" Avalon questions.
"Now, what makes you think I do? Or that we've powers," Carlos asks hoping to get the answers.
"Please. You're a witch," Avalon stated with a shrug like it was obvious.
"Yeah, which brings us back to how do you know that. You promised," Carlos said.
Avalon spoke as he sits up, "I have this teacher. She's great. She's like my mom. She told me."
"Who is she?" Carlos asks interested in the probability of another good witch.
Avalon answers, "Another witch. Like a high priestess or something. She said you and James were the coolest and I would like you the best. She was right."
"Well I'd like to meet her sometime," Carlos said with a smile.
"Yeah?" Avalon asks as he looks around.
Carlos nods then Avalon asks, "Is your room up there?"
"Mm-hmm," Carlos said.
"Come on. I want to share something with you," Avalon stated as he stands up, "You're gonna love it. I promise."
Few minutes later...
Carlos and Avalon were in Carlos's room and Avalon was putting on black lipstick as he looks at the mirror.
Avalon states as he pulls away his lipstick, "I like mirrors. They never lie to you."
Carlos walks behind him as Avalon continues, "They always tell you the truth whether you like it or not. It's basic black. The color of my soul."
He caps his lipstick as he replies, "Do you want to try it?"
Carlos shakes his head no as he retorts, "You're soul's not black."
Avalon states while putting away the lipstick, "You know the feeling that I mean. You're different, you know, you'll never want what they want. You belong on the edge. We aren't pink people Carlos. We aren't normal."
He turns around as he responds, "You want to see something incredible? Better yet, you want to try it?"
Carlos inquires, "Try what?"
Avalon smiles, "I'll show you my powers if you show me yours."
During that moment...
Logan and James walks in, "Hurry up, I need the place."
He shouts, "I know."
He asks as he closes the door, "There better not be anyone else home?"
He looks around and throws his jacket off on the table as he mutters, "Better not be."
Back to Carlos's room...
James opens the door and is shocked to see them.
"What the-" James stop as Carlos interjects, "Wait. Before you say anything, just come and see."
James nod as he goes over to them and sits down with Carlos and Avalon are sitting on the ground Indian style. In between them a laid out handkerchief with some candles.
Avalon grins, "Don't be afraid."
He holds out the palm of his hands while Carlos and James looks between them and Avalon, then the grabs them. All forming a circle around the piece.
Carlos asks feeling anxious, "OK. Now what?"
Avalon glances at the mirror. Kali appears slightly and then disappears. He chuckles a little.
"She's giving it to you too," Avalon smiles.
"Who is? Giving me what?" James asks confused.
Avalon leans into them and states excitedly, "The power."
He pulls back and looks around, he spots an alarm clock.
He asks curiously, "Carlos, does that clock work?"
Carlos shakes his head no, "It's been broken since forever."
Avalon smiles, "Wait here."
He grabs the clock and sits down in front of Carlos and James with the clock.
"Touch this," Avalon orders and James touches it.
The red numbers turn on as if it was brought back to life and Avalon explains, "It's the power of electricity. You're hand is like a mini thunderstorm."
Both giggle and then Carlos looks to Avalon as he smiles, "It's kinda like my power."
Carlos flexes his fingers and forms a small fireball, "It's the power of heat. You're hand is like the sun."
"Whoa," Avalon gasps amazed by Carlos's powers.
Carlos grins at Avalon's expression, "That's pretty cool huh?"
Avalon nods still looking at the fireball.
All turn to see the door opening while someone speaks, "James are you done yet? Also is Carlos with you..."
All see Logan at the door as he eyes Avalon.
"Logan," Carlos gasps as he extinguishes the fireball. He, James and Avalon stand up.
"What are you doing?" He asks as he closes the door.
He speaks angrily at Carlos and James, "Don't you think Kendall is going to flip when he sees Avalon here."
He adds, "He has no business being here."
Avalon shouts, "Hey, get out! This is his room!"
Carlos looks over his shoulders and whispers, "Avalon..."
"No. He and Kendall treat you worse than my aunt treats me. It's not right," Avalon states glaring at Logan.
Carlos puts his hands between the guys as he calms Avalon down, "It's OK. Relax."
Ring!
They hear the doorbell ring and Logan shoots an annoying look at Carlos and James as he opens the door and leaves. Carlos and James look back to Avalon before leaving as well with slumped shoulders. Avalon kneels down and blows out the candles.
Logan reaches the door and opens it with Camille standing there while holding blue roses, "So...What do you think?"
Logan looks between Camille and the roses as he utters, "Ah..."
Carlos and James slides down the slide as he shouts, "Logan, I can explain."
"Carlos!" A voice calls out and Carlos knew that voice.
He gasps, "Oh no!"
He sees Misty with a giant bottle of Coke-Cola as she smiles, "Soda, pizza, Body Heat...What do you think?"
Carlos awkwardly laughs as James waves at her. He sees Carlos rushes to the door and opens and closes his mouth as he tries to say something.
"Oh no...Let me guess? Rain check?" Misty asks disappointingly as she lowers down the items.
Camille looks to Logan, "Same here."
"Misty..." Carlos spat while Misty just shook her head.
"Logan, this is...this is getting ridiculous," Camille said sadly.
Avalon slides down the slide and comes up to James as he sees Logan was talking to Camille and Carlos was talking to Misty.
"I know. Believe me. You have every right to be upset, and I can't talk about it right now but I will. I promise," Carlos speaks with clasps hands as he begs, "Please believe me."
"Camille, I know you too have as much a right to be upset and I promise. Tomorrow? You. Me. Palm Woods Park? 2:00? Please?" Logan begs Camille.
Carlos suggests, "Please, believe me. Tomorrow? You and me by the Palm Woods Pool? 1:00? Please?"
The two girls looked at each other and then to Logan and Carlos.
Misty nods, "OK. Tomorrow 1:00."
She waves to James before leaving who waves back. Camille slaps Logan across the face as she leaves.
"Ouch!" The guys chorused as Carlos closes the door and begins to walk away. He walks up to Avalon and James.
Logan asks shocked, "Now why is he here?!"
Logan passes the three of them and Carlos calls out, "Logan. Logan! I am so sorry."
He follows him to the kitchen as Carlos continues, "I totally forgot."
Logan rubs his sore face as he asks harshly, "What the hell is he doing here? What's the matter with you?"
James and Avalon follow them and Avalon declares, "This is his place too, OK? He can do whatever he wants."
Carlos turns to Avalon and calms him down, "Avalon..."
He turns to Logan and states, "He's not what you think he is."
Avalon looks to Logan and glares, "Face it Carlos. He doesn't understand. He'll never understand."
He picks up his book bag and leaves 2J. Logan and James look at Carlos as he sighs and shakes his head at them.
Later...
Avalon was in his room and talking to Kali.
Avalon speaks, "I don't understand. Why can't they accept me still?"
"Because of Kendall and Logan. If there were no Kendall or Logan, Carlos and James would be with us now," Kali explains.
Avalon states crossed, "I hate them and I wished one of them was dead or both."
Aunt Jackie walks up to the door and asks worryingly and angrily, "Avalon? What's going on? Who's in there with you?"
She opens the door and comes in as she continues speaking with anger in her tone, "You skipped school today and I want to know why."
Avalon hollers back at her, "Get out of my room!"
"How dare you speak to me in that tone!" Aunt Jackie states.
She notices the candles as Avalon stands up and asks confused, "What's going on here?"
Avalon motions his finger to the door as he shouts, "I said get out of my room! Leave me alone or else..."
He points his finger at Aunt Jackie and in the mirror Kali is her demon self. She throws a bolt of lightning above Aunt Jackie where the lights were and made the bulb explode. The fire hits the bottom of her dress and quickly escalates. She screams and tries to put it out by slapping it with a jacket.
"Aunt Jackie?!" Avalon asks scared seeing his aunt running out of the room. "Aunt Jackie!"
Aunt Jackie was able to diminish the fire and Avalon runs up to her and grabs her behind her. He hugs her and then she starts to convulse. He releases her as he sees Aunt Jackie's hair stand up. She slaps herself, trying to make her body feel something and through the fear of being too numb; she hits the wall.
"Oh god!" Avalon cries out as he sees Aunt Jackie falling down the stairs. Avalon runs downstairs as he cries, "Aunt Jackie?!"
He stops short and sees his aunt on the floor motionless.
"No. No. No," He mutters as he rushes to his room to get his cell.
Minutes later...
Avalon was sitting on the stairs, numbly looking as the cops and paramedics were there. They were doing their job. They take Aunt Jackie away in a stretcher. Avalon walks up the stairs as he goes into his room.
Avalon sees Kali and she asks, "What did you tell the police?"
Avalon worriedly replies, "That the light bulb exploded, making her come closer to the candle which caught her dress on fire and she fell down the stairs."
He covers his eyes as he looks down, "Oh my god. What have I done?"
He looks to Kali with watered filled eyes, "I didn't mean to hurt her."
Kali calmly states, "Your powers are growing. It is natural, your powers are connected by emotions; therefore, strong emotions means you become stronger."
Avalon freaks out, "I know, but as soon as Aunt Jackie wakes up, she'll tell them what really happened. I've got to get out of here."
Kali quickly objects, "No!"
"Why not?" Avalon asks loudly.
"You must go back to the Charmed Ones. You must complete what you've started," Kali responds sweetly.
"But how?" Avalon asks as he looks to Kali hoping for an answer.
"James won't stop you, and Carlos's already an ally. They'll be able to turn Logan as well. Only Kendall stands in our way. You must use your powers. You must take Kendall's place in the power of four," Kali explains clearly
"Don't disappoint me Avalon. You said you wanted a family. And now you'll have one," she states with anger in her voice.
Later back at 2J...
Avalon is there and James pours Avalon a cup of tea and gives it to him while Carlos was trying to make Avalon feel better. Logan is on the phone as Kendall stands there and switching his gaze from Logan's pacing to Avalon.
"Thanks," Avalon said as he takes a sip.
"You poor thing. You're shivering," Carlos said as he tries to help Avalon.
"I'm okay," he said with a soft smile.
He looks to Kendall and speaks, "I know that you don't like me and I know that the last thing you want to do is help me. But I don't know where else to turn. I don't have anybody else."
Logan walks in with phone in hand as he states, "He's telling the truth. His aunt was admitted to the hospital."
Avalon asks worryingly, "How is she? Is she OK?"
Logan explains as he turns to Avalon, "She has a broken arm and a concussion."
Kendall blatantly asks, "How did she fall again?"
Avalon answers, "I don't know. I...I heard her scream and, and then I found her on the floor and I called 911. I promise, if you just let me spend the night and get some sleep, I'll tell you everything you want to know about me tomorrow."
"He can't stay alone," Logan said as he looks at Kendall.
Carlos offers, "He can sleep in my room as long as James doesn't mind sleeping on the couch."
James was about to protest when he remembered Avalon's situation, "Fine."
Kendall states seriously, "No magic."
Avalon comments, "I swear."
Late Night...
Avalon and Carlos were in Carlos's bedroom with Carlos asleep, but Avalon was awake. He spots a shimmer from the mirror and Kali appears in it.
Kali orders softly, "Now... is the time."
Avalon nods as he takes off the covers of the bed and quietly goes out into the hallway and closes the door. Kali appears as her demon self. Avalon was carefully walking up to Kendall's room. He opens the door slightly and sees Kendall asleep. He then prepares to use a plasma ball.
"What are you doing?" a voice calls out.
Avalon turns around and sees James in a bathrobe. "Um..."
He closes the door and looks back to James, "I was just looking for the bathroom."
"Oh. It's down the hall to the right. You can't miss it," James smiles. "Oh wait! I think Logan's in that one, take the one downstairs."
"Great, thanks. Good night," Avalon states as he goes to the bathroom. James looks in Kendall's room, he carefully opens the door and sees he's still asleep. He closes the door quietly as he goes to the couch.
Morning...
James was on the ladder replacing the light bulb Avalon broke. Kendall hands him the new one.
Kendall whispers to James, "I'm going to the hospital to see his aunt in an hour. I'll be back OK?"
"You should bring Logan. You know, just in case you need help with something," James suggests.
As if on cue, Logan passes them and went to the kitchen. Carlos slides down the slide with Avalon behind him. Both stand up and Logan, whom was distracted by looking at his cell, almost bumps into him.
"Whoa. Sorry. Didn't know you were there," Logan states with a happy smile.
"That's okay," Avalon said returning the smile as Logan leaves.
James turns on the light and cheers, "Yes!"
He steps down from the ladder and turns to Kendall as both head to where Carlos and Avalon were.
Kendall speaks to Avalon, "Avalon, I'm leaving with Logan and we're going to check on your aunt. Let her know where you are. We'll talk when we get back okay?"
"Yeah. Sure. Tell her I love her," Avalon speaks with a little smile.
"What!" Logan gasps annoyed as he rushes to the kitchen.
"No! No, no. Kendall, I can't. I need to make things right with Camille. Take Carlos or James," Logan offers once he is in the kitchen.
"But you're good with all the doctor-y terms and things," James counters with a smile.
Kendall replies with a smile, "I promise to bring you back on time, okay?"
Logan nods in defeat as they leave the front door.
James comes in the kitchen and smiles, "Well...Come on. Let's get something to eat."
Carlos smiles brightly while Avalon nods and they go to the table.
At the hospital...
Kendall was sitting by Aunt Jackie's hospital bed with Logan. They wait for the nurse to help Jackie to sit up.
Aunt Jackie asks confused, "I don't understand. Why is Avalon staying with you? I don't even know who you are."
Kendall states a little hurt, "Um...actually we just met your nephew. He found one of the tenant's lost cat."
Jackie nods in realization, "Oh."
She continues, "So that's what he was hiding."
Kendall looks at Logan and Logan asks in disbelief, "Um...Excuse me. Hiding?"
Jackie replies, "In the closet. He wouldn't let me go anywhere near it. You're lucky he didn't sacrifice the poor thing."
Logan comments confused, "I'm sorry? Sacrifice?"
Jackie leans closer to them and state, "He's a strange kid. Very troubled. Into all sorts of wierd stuff. Black magic, voodoo. God knows what else. No wonder he doesn't have any friends."
"What makes you think he's into black magic?" Kendall asks raising an eyebrow.
Jackie answers, "You should see his room. It seems like every time I walk past there he's in there...chanting or something. Sometimes, I swear, I even hear other voices. I know he's not happy there. I'm only taking care of him until his mom gets out of rehab."
Kendall asks as he stands up, "Do you mind if we stop by your place and pick up some things for Avalon?"
Jackie replies tiredly, "No."
Logan stands up and speaks kindly, "Great. Thanks. Feel better. Bye."
They exit the hospital quickly.
Palm Woods Pool...
Carlos exits the lobby and goes to an empty folding patio chair besides Misty, who was waiting by the pool.
Before he said anything. Both heard a loud voice calling, "Carlos!"
Carlos and Misty, as well as everyone else, winced at the loud voice. He turns around and sees Camille walking up to him.
She asks, "Carlos, I can't seem to get a hold of Logan. Why?"
"Last I know, he was going to the hospital with Kendall," Carlos answers.
"Oh...That's alright Carlos. Thanks for telling me," Camille states as she leaves.
Carlos looks to Misty and then to Camille and he knew he was going to regret his next decision.
"I'll be back," he said to Misty before running after Camille.
"Camille! Camille, wait!" Carlos calls out.
Camille stops and Carlos catches up to her as he tries to help Logan's situation, "Listen to me, I'm sure there's a perfectly good..."
"Explanation?" a voice said behind him and he closes his eyes.
Misty walks over to Camille and crosses her arms over his chest, "Wanna bet?"
Carlos was in the most awkward position and knew it and knows no one was going to help him.
During that moment...
Kendall and Logan walk into Avalon's room, both look around the room closely. Logan opens the closet and sees some black candles and the other stuff Avalon uses when he calls Kali. Kali appears in the mirror behind Logan in demon form and then disappears. Logan looks over his shoulder at the mirror. He examines in closely. Kendall walks over to where Logan was and then sees Avalon's journal by the bed. He picks it up and reads one of the pages.
Logan turns around and sees Kendall holding a book. He goes over as Kendall reads, "Kali says we're close to taking over the BTR coven. I hate lying to them."
Kendall hands the journal to Logan as he reads it while Kendall picks up his cell and calls home.
"Hello," James said from the other end.
"Uh, James. It's me," Kendall said as Logan puts down the journal.
From the living room, James stands up out of his seat while Avalon was sitting on the couch reading a magazine.
"Kendall, where are you? Carlos called. He says Logan was supposed to meet Camille at Palms Wood Park," James said.
Logan grabs Kendall's cell as he speaks, "Um. Listen, we have a bigger problem to deal with. Call him back and tell him to come home. I'll...I'll explain it to you guys later."
Kendall takes his cell back as he shoos Logan out the door with him, "And James, whatever you do, don't let Avalon out of your sight. Okay?"
James looks over his shoulder at Avalon.
"Yeah sure," James replies.
"All right. Bye," Kendall state as he leaves. Kali appears in the mirror in demon form.
Back at 2J...
James pocketed his cell as he turns to Avalon, "They're on their way home. We can have our little chat when they get here."
Avalon nods, "Yeah. OK."
He puts down the magazine and stands up. "Mind if I go upstairs and lay down? I'm...I'm not feeling real well."
James smiles, "Sure. Go ahead."
Avalon leaves as he climbs up Swirly. He comes into Carlos and James's room, grabs his backpack, and leaves. He goes to Logan and Kendall's room and sneaks in.
Downstairs...
James was about to sit when the doorbell rang, he sighs and goes up to open.
"Oh. Hi Jo," he speaks elatedly.
"Hi James? Is it just you?" she asks.
"No. Me and this guy, Avalon, are the only ones here. Everyone else is coming later," James states with a smile.
"Oh...Then, I guess I can leave you two alone then. Sorry," she apologizes.
"Wait! You're leaving already? Don't you want to come in and relax at least?" James asks as Jo was about to leave.
"Fine. I'll stay for a little bit," Jo states as she stares at James weirdly.
"What?" James asks out of curiosity.
Jo comes out of her stupor and speaks, "Just...just out of curiosity, um...are you and Avalon..."
James raises his eyebrows in confusion as Jo continues to speak, "Ha. Um... I mean, Kendall said that..."
James interjects moving his arms, "Kendall said what?"
Jo retorts, "Uh. Nothing...I think I need some water."
She quickly flees the room, leaving James to wonder what Kendall could said to Jo about him.
In Logan and Kendall's room...
Avalon sets some candles on a handkerchief gets in a meditating position.
Kitchen...
Jo sits at the table as James comes in.
"Wait, Jo, what did Kendall say to you?" James asks as he was facing her.
"Uh, it doesn't matter, really... forget it," Jo replies as she goes over to the sink and washing her hands.
James smirks, "Well, whatever he said, you should probably take it with a grain of salt, 'cuz sometimes his medication makes him say the strangest things! But, not to worry-his shrinks are on it."
Jo turns her head to James and questions, "Shrinks?"
James nods and Jo has a shocked look on her face as she looks back to the sink. James chuckles behind her back. He sees Avalon's jacket on the chair and picks it up. He gasps as he is pulled into a premonition.
In it, Kendall opens the door to his room and Avalon is sitting there. He throws a plasma ball at him and Kendall is hit. He collapses on the floor and then Logan comes in and Avalon shoots a lightning bolt out of his eyes. It strikes Logan and he is electrocuted to death. The premonition ends.
James mutters shocked, "Oh my god. Avalon."
Jo hears her cell ring. She picks it up and then looks out the window. She looks back to James as she pockets her cell.
"They're home," Jo said.
James frowns, "Oh no."
He rushes out of the kitchen with jacket in hand, leaving Jo confused.
Kendall and Logan's room...
Avalon sets a small animal skull in the middle of the candles. He hears someone running up to the door. James opens the door as Avalon throws a plasma ball.
"Avalon?" James asks as he opens the door. The plasma ball heads straight at him, James opens the jacket and catches it with Avalon's jacket. It catches on fire and Avalon stands up.
"Avalon!" James calls out while shaking the jacket and throws it on the ground. He stomps on it to extinguish the fire, "What the hell are you doing?"
He holds his left arm as he looks back to Avalon.
"James... I'm sorry," He leaves after saying that and James sadly looks at him.
James was sitting on a stool while Carlos was in the fridge trying to find an ice-pack. Jo, Logan and Kendall were there as well, looking at James's arm.
"Maybe we should take you to the hospital," Logan said as Carlos brings him a pack of ice.
Carlos gives it to James who places it on his left arm as he states, "No. It's not that bad."
Jo asks "Well, how did it happen anyway?"
James comes up with a lie, "Uh, candles. Avalon had some candles lit and I guess the jacket got to close, and then he ran out of the house."
Jo states as she looks at James, "It sure caught fire fast."
Logan said, "Um, Jo, we got this. Don't worry, you can go."
Jo asks as she stares at Logan "Are you sure? I don't mind."
James replies, "No. Logan's right. I'm fine. You go ahead."
Jo nods, "Okay. I'll stop by later to see how you're doing."
James and Kendall say at the same time as Jo leaves, "Great."
Once Jo was gone, Logan and Kendall turn to James.
Kendall asks flatly, "OK. So, how did this happen?"
James answers, "I had a premonition...that Avalon was going to hurt you and Logan, so I tried to stop him."
Carlos sighs, he knew he was wrong and was going to admit it. "I should have listened to you Kendall. You were right about Avalon. He's evil."
Logan counters, "No. Actually, he's not, but he is being used by an evil spirit and I think I know which one, so come on."
They all leave as James puts down the ice pack on the table and follows them.
Meanwhile...
Avalon was in his room, putting stuff in his backpack. He goes to the closet. Kali appears in the mirror.
Kali states slightly crossed, "Where are you going Avalon?"
Avalon retorts sadly, "Go away. I don't want anything to do with you. I don't want to be a witch anymore."
Kali speaks calmly, "But you haven't finished what we've started."
Avalon adds feeling sad, "But I'm hurting people. Don't you understand? First Aunt Jackie, now James. I have to leave."
Kali speaks gently, "Aren't you going to say good-bye first? Touch the mirror, Avalon. It's OK. I'm not upset. Touch the mirror and I'll go away too."
Avalon slowly approaches the mirror and touches it. Kali goes into Avalon's body. "Hello...(His voice changes to evil.)...Avalon"?
He smiles.
Back to 2J – Living room...
The Charmed Ones are looking through the Book of Shadows.
Kendall states as Logan flips the pages, "Kali. Kali. Kali."
Carlos points the page as he reads, "There, there. "An evil sorceress cursed into her own dimension. She appears in reflections and has the power to possess...""
Logan finishes, ""...innocents and use them as pawns to steal a witch's power.""
James states, "Wait. I don't understand. So she's using Avalon to try to turn us into bad witches?"
Carlos looks to Logan, "Does it say anything about how to get rid of her?"
Logan responds as he reads from the book, "Uh, yeah. " To get rid of her: shatter her reflection.""
He closes the book annoyed, "However the hell we do that."
"Here," he gives Kendall the book. The door slams open and there stands Kali in Avalon's body.
Carlos asks, "Avalon?"
Kali casually walks towards them while in Avalon's voice, "Hello James. How's (Kali's voice emerges) the arm?"
James questions, "You're not Avalon?"
Kali remarks, "You're not kidding."
He throws a plasma ball at them. Logan pushes his brothers to the left and he goes to the right. It hits a trash bin as it has erupts into flames.
Avalon screams fearfully, "Carlos! James! Help me!"
Kali takes control again, "Never mind."
Kendall quickly tosses the book to the side. Kali throws a plasma ball at them. Kendall quickly transforms into a fly as Carlos and James duck. It hits a chair and the chair catches on fire.
Carlos looks at the fire and then back to Kali, his expression turns serious as he stands up. He forms a fireball in his hand and throws it at Kail. "Take this!"
Kali smirks as he throws a plasma ball, both collide and cancel each other out. Kendall transforms back to his normal self.
"My power's already greater than yours Carlos," she said as Carlos throws another fireball at her.
Kali rolls her eyes and throws a plasma ball at him, both projectiles were going to collide; however, Kali breathes a small bolt of lightning out of Avalon's mouth as it heads to the plasma ball. It goes through it and hits Carlos's fireball, dissipating into nothing as the plasma ball stops short of Carlos. It expands and then explodes, sending Carlos to flying into the kitchen's wall.
"Carlos!" the three boys call out.
Kali turns to Kendall and states, "My power's greater also than yours Kendall. It's only a matter of time."
Logan rushes over to James and kneels next to him as James kneels too.
"Time? James, that's it!" Logan exclaims.
Kali looks at them as Logan explains, "Freeze him!"
James looks at him and then back to Logan, "Avalon doesn't freeze, remember?"
Kali looks at Logan and shouts, "No!"
He forms another plamsa ball and throws it towards Logan and James. Logan squints and sends it back at him, he absorbs it.
Logan retorts, "Yeah, but Kali will. Say the spell!"
"But you said and I quote, 'Well...that spell was a little bit iffy.'" James quoted Logan.
Logan retorts, "This isn't the time for that! Just say the damn spell!"
"As quick as a sneeze I order this scene to freeze!" James chants the spell as Kali screams, "No!"
James freezes Kali and Avalon's body falls to the floor. James looks behind him and pulls his mirror from under the couch.
"Logan! Will this mirror work?!" he asks as he shows his small mirror.
"I don't know! I think it's way too small," Logan replies.
Kendall shouts, "I got an idea!"
He rushes up the slide, leaving Logan and James to stare at each other and the frozen Kali. Soon they hear something sliding down the slide, a big mirror flies out and Logan stops it.
"Logan! The mirror! Get her to the mirror!" Kendall yells as he voice echoes from the slide.
"No! Not my mirror!" James exclaims as Kendall comes out of the slide.
"James...it is either your mirror or your life!" Logan said annoyed.
"Let me think about that," James said and Logan shot him a look.
"Are you kidding with me right now!" Logan shouts.
"Fine! But you guys own me a new mirror!" James states as he glares at Logan and Kendall.
Logan squints his eyes and uses his power to throw Kali in the mirror. Once Kali was in the mirror she screams, "No!"
She pounds on the mirror as a feeble attempt to escape from it. Carlos was already there and hits the mirror with a broom. Kali screams as the glass is shattered and disappears.
Noon – Carlos's room...
Carlos enters his room with Avalon standing by the mirror. His hair washed the red dye and he's wearing a red t and blue jeans.
Avalon speaks nicely, "Thanks for the outfit."
"No problem. It's James's," he states as he leans on the wall.
Carlos smiles wide and walks to Avalon, who grabs his jacket. "All set?"
Avalon nods, "Yeah. I'm all set."
Carlos asks worryingly, "You OK?"
Avalon states, "Hmm. I don't think, uh, looking into a mirror is ever going to be the same."
He turns around to see Carlos there.
Carlos replies, "Yeah, well, the demon's gone Avalon, forever."
Avalon nods, "Yeah, well, unfortunately all the other ones remain. It's so hard."
Carlos comments, "Oh, I know. It was hard for me too when I was your age."
Avalon asks, "Yeah?"
Carlos states, "Are you kidding?"
Both go by the dresser and Avalon holds his coat as Carlos speaks, "These are the hardest years of your life."
Carlos sits on his bed as he finishes, "The one thing I learned is you just gotta be yourself."
Avalon giggles a little as he puts on his coat.
Avalon shots a comeback, "Easy for you to say. What if yourself sucks?"
Carlos comments, "Well, you don't have to worry about that."
He sees Avalon rolls his eyes, "No. Avalon, I'm serious. You are a great kid. I could totally see us hanging out together in school. A couple of troublemakers. You, me and the guys."
Both he and Avalon laugh a little.
Avalon speaks after getting his coat on, "I'm going to miss being a witch. Having powers...and having brothers."
Carlos points out, "Yeah, well, you've got your mom. And your aunt will be home from the hospital tomorrow."
Carlos stands up and states with a smile, "OK, now remember, do not tell anyone about us BTR spiritual brothers right? It's just our little secret."
Avalon comments as he puts his book bag on, "I promise."
Carlos nods, "OK."
They leave Carlos's room and he when they reached the lobby door, Avalon sees his mom there. He looks back and says, "Bye."
BTR said together, "Bye."
He goes into his mother's car and drives away.
Carlos rubs his face and Kendall asks, "Why are you rubbing your face? That plasma ball got you in the gut, didn't it?"
Carlos nods, "Yeah, but before that Misty and Camille ganged up on me and both slapped my face after I try to explain Logan's lateness."
"Speak of the devil," Logan states as he sees Camille strolling up to him. Logan leaves the group and walks up to Camille.
"Hey," he waves.
"Hey," Camille said happily.
The guys grinned elatedly that Logan was going to not feel Camille's wrath. James turns around as he feels love. He spots the person and pokes on Carlos's shoulder, "Psst. Carlos. Carlos!"
"What!?" Carlos angrily replies as James points back to inside the lobby. He looks into the lobby and sees Misty there. He quickly runs over to her.
"Hi," Carlos said as he looks down.
"Hey," Misty said also looking down.
They begin to walk to the pool and Misty said, "Uh, can we..."
"...we talk?" Logan asks Camille as they walk around the park.
Camille said "Hmm... Is there really..."
"...anything to talk about?" Carlos asks.
"I'm sorry Carlos for slapping you yesterday," Misty admits.
"I'm sorry for blowing you off for those time," Carlos said honestly, "I'm really sorry."
"I know. Maybe another time then," Misty winks at Carlos as she heads to the lobby.
At the park...
"I'm sorry for missing you yesterday. Really I am, I just was caught up in some band thing and couldn't leave. You understand?" Logan speaks to Camille.
Camille looks at him, 'you've-got-to-be-kidding-me' was written all over her face.
"Camille...I'm sorry..." Logan states sadly.
She comments angrily, "So am I!"
Logan was shocked by Camille's tone, "What do you mean by that?"
Camille shakes her head, "I mean, come on Logan. Who we kidding? I mean, let's face it. One of us is obviously more interested in this relationship than the other."
Logan shakes his head, "That's not true and you know it."
Camille retorts, "Isn't it? Then how come I'm always the one left standing there looking like an idiot."
Logan tries to reassure her, "I can explain."
Camille shakes her head, "No, you can't. Or you won't."
She stands up and walks a few feet away from the bench they were sitting at, "Damn it Logan! I still love you. I'm not saying you have to explain it all to me Logan."
Logan walks up to her as she speaks, "That you're prerogative. All I'm saying is... it hurts that you don't trust me enough."
Logan comments, "I do trust you Camille. It has nothing to do with you, it's just... it's just something that I don't know if you can handle."
"Logan, I get it that you can't ever share that secret with anybody. But...I'm not everybody, I'm your girlfriend. Doesn't that mean something," Camille asks.
"Yes, of course it does," Logan answers.
Camille replies, "Well I hope that's true for your sake."
"Camille...I just don't want you to worry about me," Logan stated nicely. "You know me so well."
"That's the problem. I know you too well and I know the next time this happens...you won't tell me again," Camille replies sadly.
"Camille...I don't know what to do. All I know is there's nothing I can say or do to reassure you, that I'm there for you. I have to help my brothers, you know that," Logan states.
"So...I guess," Camille stops talking as she wipes her tears from her eyes.
"Camille... Are you saying that you don't want to see me anymore?" Logan asks hurt.
"I don't know what I want anymore," Camille sobs out as she runs from the park, leaving Logan in the park.
