As she sat there, her hair practically covering her whole face, a frown and staring eyes, she whispered to Jason as he walked by, "Seven Days."
"Whoa!!" he yelled just noticing her when she said that. Her eyes and her head followed him as he sat back in his seat. Her and her friends started cracking up.
"Kati!!!" the teacher yelled.
"What? What'd I do?" she asked him.
"Stop laughing!!" he yelled.
"Okay, Mr. Murrrrrrrrrtile," she said with a blank expression on her face.
"Go to the office!" Mr. Murtile told her.
"I'd be happy to!" she exclaimed but still she walked slowly.
"Kati Matthews, go!!!!"
"I'm going, gosh!! You don't have to be so—" she stopped herself. When she reached the office, she called her mom. "Come pick me up I'll tell you why later!"
"Kati, I didn't adopt you to cause trouble. I'm not mad. I could never be mad at you. You know I love you." Paige hugged her new daughter close. The fifteen-year-old smiled at her new mom. "And you know, you give me comfort, ya know, since my boyfriend died, last month and all."
"Same here, my biological mother died three months ago, from a car crash." Kati's blonde hair cascaded around her face softly. "What happened to him?"
"He died when Bata, you'll find out who she is soon, shocked him, and this powder he threw at her killed her, too. And we brought him back to life and he seemed to be fine, but we, of course, we had to send him back because, ya know, he was already dead, and people would get suspicious. Then, I needed someone to fill the gap so Phoebe decided that I should adopt a daughter. So that's how I got you!" Paige explained.
"You guys are pretty cool!" Kati told her. "Well, are we gonna stay in the car all day or are we gonna go inside?" Kati laughed.
"Well, your home early! Did you have a good day?" Piper asked cheerfully.
"Yeah, sure," Kati walked right past her.
"What's her problem?" Piper asked Paige.
"You and her have issues," Paige replied.
"No, we don't!" Piper exclaimed.
"Yeah, ya do, you just don't notice." Paige nodded once and walked the other way. She walked to her daughter's room. "Hey, Kati!" She looked up. "You know how you said we're cool in the car? Well, there's something even cooler about us. We're witches. Don't say anything! We'll show you. Good witches, not the kind in movies. Watch this!" Paige orbed out and appeared behind her. "I'm behind you!" She orbed back to her original spot. "I can also do this!" She held out her hand. "Candle!" The candle disappeared in bluish-white lights and reappeared in Paige's hand. "Piper! Phoebe! Show Kati your powers!" Piper walked in the room. Paige threw the candle at her. Piper froze the candle. "Phoebe! Bring an apple!" Phoebe walked in the room and handed her the apple. Paige threw the apple at Piper. Piper blew up the apple. "Apple!" the pieces of the apple appeared in her hand. "Phoebe, your turn. Show her your powers." Phoebe levitated in the air and came back down. "Okay, now show her the vision of the utopia."
"Are you gonna be able to accept all of that?" Phoebe asked.
Kati nodded. "Now I have something to show all of you guys! Aunt Phoebe give me your hand, Mama you, too. Now both of you join hands with Aunt Piper. Close your eyes." She closed her own eyes. Kati was concentrating. "Think of a loved one you miss the most. Now open your eyes." There were two beings in the circle. First, there was Prue, then, there was Kyle.
"Oh my gosh!" all three shouted.
"Don't let go!" Kati told them quickly. "If you can see them, they are letting you know that they are in heaven!" She let go. They disappeared. "I'm a Summoner. Wanna see something else I can do?" She fixed her hair, her expression, and whispered, "Seven days!" Then, she burst out laughing. So did Paige. Piper just rolled her eyes and walked out of the room. Phoebe went to her room.
"Leo!" Piper called.
"Yes, Piper?" Leo had just arrived in the room.
"Find out all you can about Summoners."
