Ch2: The Talk.

The four small boys were seated on the brown couch in the living room of the Mitchell household. In front of them stood Jenifer Knight, Sylvia Garcia and Joan Mitchell all looking rather nervous, they needed to explain what was going on to the four boys yet they had no idea where to even start.

Seperating herself from the other moms Brooke stood a few feet besides the couch talking into her cell phone with her husband with a furious but also lost look on her face.

It wasn't like his parents never argued before, heck they did so constantly so James tried to ignore his mom and instead turned to look at Kendall who shrugged showing that he to had no idea what was about to happen.

Unlike his three slightly older friends Carlos didn't want to be patient and wait for to start with this 'talk'. The events of the day had been too exciting to even think of sitting still. The six-year old looked at his mom. "I made it warmer." He proudly told his mom.

Sylvia smiled a little smile at that. "I heard sweetie."

"And I saw the future." James joined in grinning despite his headache. "It's felt really weird. It looked like... The tv channel we have. Nostalgia tv." He said not noticing his mom choke on a sob before exiting the room.

Logan did and it confused him even more. He looked at Joan. "Mom?"

Joan sucked on her inner cheek thinking of a way to say this. Like her Logan possessed the power of telekinesis, but to be honest she hadn't expected him to be able to use it the same way she did. It must have to do with their ancestor... "Melinda Warren," Joan started half considering summoning Kevin to help explain this to Kendall, but knowing it was too soon after her relative had died to do so. "Melinda was a witch who lived in the 16th century." She started explaining.

"We are her descendents." Sylvia added.

Logan frowned at that. "We? But... I don't get it we're not really family. Are we?"

"It's been hundreds of years since Melinda died honey." Joan smiled. "And family spreads in different ways. Me, Sylvia, Brooke... Kevin. We're all witches from the Warren line. That makes you four witches to boys."

"Dad was a witch?" Kendall finally spoke up.

"A very powerful one." His mom answered smiling faintly. She grabbed a chair from the dinner table and pulled it to her setting it near the couch. "Kevin... I know this is going to sound like on of your comic books." She flashing Carlos and James a smile who grinned leaning closer to hear more of the story.

This really was like their comic books! Just instead of superheroes they were witches and instead of super powers they had magic powers. And there were no mutants, doomsday devices or radioactive monsters but demons.

Ignore those facts and it was just like a comic.

"I was on my way back from a party when I was attacked by a demon. I freaked out. I mean I'd never seen anything like it.. I got saved from the monster by a large brown bear."

"Dad could turn into animals to." Kendall concluded finally smiling.

Jenifer nodded. "He did. Imagine my surprise when that bear shapeshifted into a human."

"Jen became obsessed."

All heads turned to look at Brooke who'd just stepped back into the living room. "Jenifer spend weeks trying to figure out who her mystery saviour was." She told the four young boys keeping her face carefully blank. "Of course everyone thought she was crazy when she said she was saved from a slimey blackk goo monster by a large bear who turned into a man." Brooke let out a small chuckle. "But when she did find him she held on and never let go."

"A decision I'll never regret." Jenifer said without even a hint of doubt in her voice. "Despite all the magic drama that comes with this family it's also giving me so much." She said looking at Kendall who had a thoughtful look on his young face. "I have great friends, you, Katie and your brothers..."

All four moms looked at the four boys expectantly all waiting for Jenifer's words to sink in. They weren't that surprised when all four realized it at the same time. They could tell by the way their heads jerked up and their eyes grew.

"Brothers?"

"Well you are the next generation of Warren witches." Sylvia pointed out her voice close to teasing. "In a way you four are brothers. If not by blood than by spirit."

"Ha!" Kendall cried grinning for the first time in days. He happily jumped of the couch. "I'm still the oldest brother. No one's my boss!"

Putting her hands on her hips Jenifer tilted her head to the side so she could glower at him. "Oh really?"

"I mean besides you mom." Kendall hastily said smiling sheepishly.

"We're brothers!" Carlos cheered throwing his arms in the air. "How awesome is that!"

James smirked mischievously. "Yeah and you get to be the baby brother!"

"Hey!"

Logan stared at his three best friends might open in a silent O. He couldn't believe they could make jokes after what their moms just told them. "It's not funny!" He yelled. "We're monsters!" That successfully shut everyone up.

Sylvia was about to deny what Logan just said but Kendall beat her to the punch."No we're not." The blond simply said. "You heard what mom said. Dad saved her from a real monster. Evil monsters don't save damsels in distress."

"But witches on tv-"

"Are ugly." James interrupted Logan with a look of distaste on his face. "We don't loo like that." He said hand going up to touch his nose as if checking if had somehow gotten large and crooked during this conversation. "They are also mean."

"Glenda isn't!" Carlos cried. "In the wizard of Oz she's really nice." He grinned. "I can't wait to tell everybody at school about this!"

"You can't." Brooke told him. normally that would be enough, after all no one said no to Brooke Diamond, but Carlos found himself forgetting about the unspoken rule in the light of current situation.

"Why not?"

"Because then we'd get burned at the stake." Logan moaned sinking deeper into the couch. A picture on the wall across them suddenly fell down without reason.

"We'll work on that." Sylvia smiled shaking her head in amusement. "Your powers for now are connected to you emotions. They react to them."

Logan cringed realizing things never would go back to the way they were. "So I can move things with my mind?"

Nodding Joan looked over at the now crooked hanging picture frame that was hanging side ways. She flicked her hand in the direction of the picture using her telekinesis to hang it correctly.

Logan's eyes grew at the control his mom possessed over her own powers. "Why didn't you tell us?!"

"You weren't ready! We planned on doing this when you were twenty not six." Brooke snapped before putting a hand on her chest and taking a calming breath. This wasn't supposed to be happening. She'd always known this would happen. Ever since the boys' future selves visited them... And yet she had somehow hoped to keep her baby from a life like this. "You can't ever use your powers for personal gain and you are too young to understand that now."

"You know what I don't understand?" Logan cried jumping of the couch. "How you could lie to us our our whole lives!" He cried before running out of the room the door magically swinging shut behind him.

Joan watched him go with a pained look on her face. "Oh Logan." She whispered closing her eyes.

"Mom?" James quietly asked knowing it was foolish to ask his next question thanks to the tension in the room, but he wanted to know. "Why did I get such a lame power?"

"Lame?" Brooke blinked. Premonition was one of the most desirable power to both good and evil. That her son could consider it lame would surprise most witches.

"My power's worse." Carlos complained. "I can make it warmer what's special about that?"

"Thermokinesis grows." His mother told him snapping her fingers a small flame appeared on her index finger.

"No way!" Both Kendall and Carlos gasped in amazement.

Sylvia smiled being the only mother that actually enjoyed introducing the boys to the world of magic. She understood that Brooke was worried, the woman had married a cupid and went against all rules to not only stay with him but have a child with him to. She also understood why Jenifer was reluctant. The poor mortal was now single mother of two witches.

But Sylvia herself had never been to fond of the idea of binding powers even though they didn't have a choice at the time. "There are active powers like telekinesis, pyrokinesis and shapeshifting, but there are also passive powers like premonition and invincibility."

She giggled when James 'harumped' and crossed his arms an annoyed pout working its way on his face. "I want an active power."

The talk could have gone worse. Sylvia thought watching as the three remaining boys talked amongst themselves taking in all the information like sponges, but they still had a lot to learn and a long way to go. Sylvia knew they could do it.

After all they were Charmed.
