Chapter 2- Death In The Family
"What?" Chris asked again, "Did you have a premonition or something?"
"Yes and its none of your business Halliwell," Nora replied.
"Tell me."
"No."
"Tell me!"
"N-O!"
"Tell me NOW!" Chris closed what ever distance there was between them.
"It was something about a prophecy are you happy now?" Nora explained and Chris nodded. A prophecy about Chris and me, alright, this is REALLY weird! Nora thought as she turned around. Chris grabbed her arm and turned her back around.
"Hold up, you just called me Halliwell!" Chris yelled.
"Isn't that your name?" Nora asked as Chris gapped at her. Nora took the DVD box from the counter and handed it to Chris who looked at it wide eyed.
"Holy shit…" Chris mumbled as he looked at the DVD box.
"Maya! Take Wyatt to Magic School!" Nora yelled into the living room.
"Alright!" Came the reply and blue orbs filled the living room.
"I'm leaving, I'll be back later," Nora told Chris and then orbed into a dark alley. Nora walked down the alley and entered a fortune teller's shop.
"Good morning ma'am, how can I help you?" The middle aged gypsy asked as Nora sat down in front of her.
"Umm… how much do you know about prophecies?" Nora asked uncertainly. The gypsy eyed her. "Sorry, let me rephrase that. How many prophecies do you know?"
"Most of them, why?" The gypsy replied.
"Well, I had a premonition and-"Nora paused and held out her hands, "-can I show you I don't know how to explain it exactly."
"Sure hon," The gypsy placed her hands over Nora's and closed her eyes. "The thrice-blessed prophecy," the gypsy whispered.
"Huh?" Nora looked at the gypsy, confused beyond reason.
"It's the thrice-blessed prophecy. It states, 'the second Charmed one, her second child with the girl of different realms under the full moon of March will bring with them the third Charmed ones and live together forever." The gypsy explained.
"Piper is the second Charmed One and Chris is her second son. I'm from different realities so that means-"Nora stopped talking and stared blankly at the gypsy, "-thank you sooo much. How much do I owe you?" Nora got up.
"Nothing. This is your first visit," the gypsy replied and smiled sweetly at Nora.
"And probably not my last," Nora mumbled under her breath as she exited the store and orbed into Phoebe's office.
"ACK! Nora! Where's Wyatt?" Phoebe jumped as Nora appeared in her office.
"Chris took him to magic school. Look I walked past Chris and we brushed shoulders and I got a premonition about a prophecy. So, I went to a gypsy. Turns out the prophecy says that on the full moon of March Chris and I will be together forever and that our kids are the next generation of Charmed Ones," Nora took a breath, "when's the full moon?"
"Tomorrow night," Phoebe answered and Nora groaned, falling onto the coach.
"Well, that's fuckin' great!" Nora cried and slammed her head into the head rest.
"Maybe you should tell Chris about the prophecy," Phoebe said and Nora pouted. Chris orbed in.
"What prophecy?" Chris asked and Nora and Phoebe looked at each other.
"The one that states that under the full moon tomorrow night, you and Nora will be together forever and your kids will be the next Charmed Ones," Phoebe explained.
"WHAT!" Chris yelled and Nora stood.
"Well, I'm going." Nora stated.
"Why?" Phoebe snapped.
"I've got to go and kick evil's ass," Nora replied.
"What evil?"
"The one after Wyatt, doiy!" Nora replied, frustrated.
"Hold up there! We'll vanquish him together. Then, we'll figure out a way to get you home," Phoebe said, Nora frowned.
"First, the evil has to be killed, NOT vanquished and second, there's nothing for me to go back to!" Nora yelled and orbed. Phoebe got up and stood next to Chris.
"Chris, orb now!" Chris put his hand on Phoebe's shoulder and orbed.
"MAYA!" Nora screamed as she ran into the classroom. Gideon pushed the athame through Maya's stomach and she fell to the ground. "YOU SON OF A BITCH!" Nora yelled and threw her hands up, sending Gideon flying across the room.
"There's two of you, great." Gideon mumbled as he stood up.
"I knew I should have killed you when I first got here!" Nora snarled, advancing on Gideon. Chris and Phoebe ran into the room and saw Nora do a spin kick, sending Gideon against the same wall. Nora ran over to Maya. "Maya, can you hear me? It'll be ok!" Nora said as she pulled the athame out of Maya's stomach.
Maya smiled, "hey, at least I get to die in Charmed," her breathing became harsh. Tears came falling down Nora's face, "I'll say hi to mom and dad for you." Maya's eyes slowly closed. Phoebe ran over and got Wyatt and Chris just stood in the doorway.
Nora grabbed the athame and stood up, facing Gideon, fire literally burning in her eyes.
"You killed my sister. I now have no family and you're the idiot that turns Wyatt evil," Nora said, "any last words Gideon?"
"Yah, who the hell are you?" Gideon asked and Nora threw the athame at him, piercing him in the heart. Gideon fell to the ground, dead. Nora fell to her knees and put her hands on her face. Chris ran over to her and wrapped her arms around her shoulder and orbed. They appeared on the Golden Gate Bridge.
