"I call being a whitelighter!" Three year old Melinda squealed in the playroom. The cousins were playing their favorite game. "Hey Melinda, why do you always want to be a whitelighter? Why not a witch?" Olivia asked her cousin in curiosity, Melinda shrugged "Because my daddy is a whitelighter and he protects the witches" she stated proudly "Oooooh Can I be the witch?" Phoenix excitedly asked Wyatt nodded "Sure" she replied "I can be your whitelighter Nixy!" Phoenix and Melinda were, as their mothers said, inseparable since they were born. When they got old enough to talk to each other they instantly became best friends. "oh I'll be another witch!" Chris said with a smile. "I can be your whitelighter to Chrissy!" Melinda said happily "Melinda, my name is Chris" the little toddler shook her head "Noooo its Chrissy" Wyatt and Olivia let out a giggle, Chris gave them a glare and sighed in defeat, as Melinda smiled proudly. "Well I guess me and Olive are stuck being the demons, AGAIN" Wyatt said emphasizing the word again. Olivia rolled her eyes "Its Oliviaaaaa" she said annoyed.
Olivia and Phoenix were throwing pillows at each other pretending they were fire balls. "Melie!" Phoenix called and Melinda orbed next to Phoenix, or as Melinda called her Nixy. Melinda froze the pillow that Olivia had thrown at Phoenix mid air and threw it back at Phoenix. "Hey no fair" Olivia laughed after she got hit with a 'fireball' Chris and Wyatt, however were having a battle of their own. "Pillow" Wyatt said as a pillow appeared in his hand, and he playfully hit Chris in the head with it "Hey!" Chris yelled as he hit Wyatt back.
After a little while the kids got tired of that game and decided to go down stairs to see their parents. Melinda took a seat on the couch between Piper and Wyatt. "So munchkins what were you guys doing upstairs?" Piper asked "Playing a witch vs. demon game" Olivia answered "Were you guys using powers?" Phoebe asked, the kids looked around "Noooo" they all replied back, too bad they were bad liars. Phoebe looked around at the kids suspiciously. All of a sudden a demon shimmered in the living room.
"Really? What? Do you have some sort of death wish?" Piper asked sarcastically but stood up, forcing Melinda and Chris behind her. "Hello charmed ones" the demon sneered. Melinda and Phoenix had heard about demons but neither of them had actually seen one till now. Piper tried to blow him up but only managed to blow up his arm "Why you…" but the demon was caught off by him being frozen. The charmed ones looked around the room. "I..I didn't mean to" Melinda began saying as she stepped out behind Piper. "It just sort of happened" Melinda said, her hands still in the gesture that caused the demon to freeze. They just looked at her, everyone but the kids, who had already knew Melinda could freeze things. "I'm I in trouble?" the little girl asked looking at her mothers and aunts reactions. "No sweetie, I'm just surprised you did that, I mean after all it was the first time you've seen a demon" Paige told her niece. Piper picked her daughter up "Guess what time it is?" she asked, Phoenix rolled her eyes "Awww man not nap time" she said looking at her mother. Paige picked her up "Yup" she simply said, Phoenix frowned "But I'm not tired" Phoenix lied. "mmhmm sure your not" Paige told her daughter sarcastically.
Right when Phoenix and Melinda's head touched there pillows they were instantly asleep. Piper and Paige kissed their daughters and quietly walked out of Melinda's room, shutting the door behind them. When they were back in the living room, along with their other sister Phoebe, Piper began talking "Chris and Wyatt are going to have a friend from magic school come over tomorrow for a play date in case Henry or Olivia wants to come" Piper said looking at her sisters, Piper didn't really want her kids going to magic school at first, but the fact that both Leo and Paige would be there helped change her mind, that and the fact she didn't really want her kids exposing magic to all the mortals in school. "Sure I think that's a great idea!" Paige said with a smile "Henry has been having trouble making friends at magic school and I can't figure out why" Phoebe shrugged "He seems to get along just fine with his cousins" Paige thought for a moment wait a second she thought "Hey did anybody even see Henry since we got here" she said, her voice beginning to show panic. Piper and Phoebe looked at her "Now that you mention it.." Phoebe began thinking, all at once the sisters quickly got up and went up stairs to search for the little boy.
Piper walked in the play room were Wyatt, Chris and Olivia were playing, careful not to wake up the little ones across the hall. "Has anybody seen Henry?" Phoebe asked coming in along with Piper. The kids looked at each other. "No" they replied looking back at the adults concerned Henry, if you can hear me, where are you? Chris asked Henry telepathically. In the guest bedroom was a reply "He's in the guest bedroom!" Chris told Piper and Phoebe. Piper looked at him "how did you…" "I have telepathy remember?" Chris asked his mom with a smile "Oh right" Piper said grabbing Phoebes arm as they went out to tell Paige.
Paige was looking frantically in Wyatt and Chris's room no Henry she thought. "Paige he's in the guest bedroom" Phoebe told her sister and they all made their way there. In the guest bedroom, Henry was just drawing on a piece of paper on the bed. "Jr. what are you doing in here and not out there with you cousins?" she asked he looked up at her "I don't know. I don't think they like me" He said sadly, his mother frowned. "we like you Henry" Phoenix and Melinda said in union, they heard all the commotion and got up to see what was going on. "You do?" Melie smiled and climbed up on the bed next to her aunt and cousin "Of course, you're our cousin" Melinda said, giving her older cousin a big hug. "Ya you're my big brother Henry I sort of have to love you" Phoenix said plopping on the bed with them. Henry smiled and rolled his eyes and Paige couldn't help but smile at her children and niece. "Well I love all of you" Paige said bringing all of them into a group hug. "we love you to mom" Henry and Phoenix said in union "I love you to Auntie Paige" Melinda said giggling. Paige smiled and they just stayed like that for a while before they all fell asleep. Turns out they were tired.
THE NEXT DAY
"I can't wait till Andrew gets here!" Wyatt said excitedly "He's a witch to but he doesn't have the powers that we do" He said "Why not?" Phoenix asked joining in the conversation Paige picked her daughter up "Because mommy and your Aunts are very special" Paige told her. "How Melinda asked sitting on the couch next to her mom. The older kids already knew about their moms being charmed ones yet they didn't quite understand it yet. All they knew is for some reason they were more powerful than other witches and so they would be to. "Chris and Wyatt sat on the floor of the living room playing thumb war while Olivia giggled and watched. Henry sat by his mother and sister. "Well" Piper began "Mommy and your Aunts are more powerful than other witches, so that we can protect the innocent" Piper explained. Phoenix nodded "How did you become more powerful?" Melinda wondered "Each generation of Halliwells are stronger than the last, because our great-great-great-great-great grandmother Melinda Warren created the Warren/Halliwell line" Paige answered but the little ones just looked confused "You may not get it now, but when you're older you well." Piper told them, they both just looked at each other and nodded.
Ding-Dong! The door bell rang, "That must be Andrew" Piper said, setting Melinda down and answering the door, her sisters right behind her. "Hello you must be Mrs. Halliwell" Andrews mom said at the door "Yes, you can call me Piper, and these are my sisters" she said gesturing to them "Phoebe and Paige" Andrews Mom nodded "You can call me Sandra" she said sticking out her hand, which all the sisters took turns shaking. "And you must be Andrew" Paige said looking down at the little blonde boy. Andrew nodded and they lead the way to the living room were the cousins were. "You know Wyatt and Chris from school, This is my daughter Melinda" Piper said while Melinda smiled "And her cousin Phoenix" Phoenix just looked at him, instantly not liking him for some reason, she just continued to stand next to Melinda. "And that's there other cousins and my children Henry and Olivia" Andrew nodded "I know Olivia from school too" he said shyly. "Oh hey Andrew" Wyatt said walking up to his friend, with Chris and Olivia behind him. "Hi Andrew" Olivia greeted, Andrew smiled.
Wyatt took Andrew up stairs to the play room along with Olivia, Chris and they even invited Henry to come. "I'm sorry I have to go and leave like this" Sandra told them "Its not a problem" Piper replied with a smile "If you're sure, I'll just be gone for a few hours, call me if you need anything" Sandra told them as she left. "She seemed nice" Phoebe said after Sandra was gone "Ya she seems pretty normal to for being a witch" Paige added "We'll maybe she's a mortal and her husband's a witch?" Piper added. Melinda started going up the stairs but before she could reach them a hand pulled her arm "were are you going?" Phoenix asked her cousin "Just upstairs to play with them" Melinda said smiling "Don't you want to?" Phoenix shook her head "No thank you, that kid gives me the creeps" Melinda looked at her cousin "Really? why?" she wondered "I don't know. I just don't like him" Melinda nodded "well then I don't like him either" she replied smiling, Phoenix looked up at her grinning, whoever she didn't like, Melinda didn't like, and vice versa, As they said they were inseparable.
Melinda and Phoenix decided to play dolls down stairs while the big kids were upstairs. Piper, Phoebe and Paige had gone in the attic talking about whether or not they should bind the kids powers.
"I don't think we should" Phoebe said looking at her sisters "I mean what if they really need them?" she asked "Hopefully they don't" Piper told her "Yes but what if they do? And besides the moment to bind their powers is already gone, they already know about them and I don't think it would be right to force them to give up their powers" Phoebe told her older sister, Paige nodded "I have to agree with Phoebes on this one" Piper sighed in defeat "Fine."
Right in front of the three sisters orbs began to appear, and Melinda and Phoenix were there. "Melinda what did I say about orbing in the house?" Piper looked at her daughter "I know, I know but I didn't see the need to walk all the way to the attic" she said innocently. "What were you talking about mommy?" Phoenix asked walking over to Paige, who picked her up "About if we should bind you and your cousins powers" Melinda tilted her head "What does bind mean?" Piper scooped her daughter up "it means we would hold on to your powers until you got old enough to use them" Piper told her, Phoenix looked worriedly at her aunt "You decided not to do that right?" she said hopefully, Phoebe laughed "Yes, were going to let you guys keep your powers as long as you use them responsibly" Melinda looked at her Auntie Phoebe "How can we learn to use them at all if we're not allowed to use them?" she asked "You learn to use them at magic school" Paige pointed out "Ya but me and Melinda don't go to magic school yet" she argued "hmmm" Piper thought "What if we show all of you how and when to use your powers our self one day a week?" Piper asked out loud, Phoebe smiled "Would we still be able to go to magic school when were old enough?" Melinda asked hopefully "Only if you want to" Piper answered. "Yay" Phoenix and Melinda said in union as their aunt and mothers laughed.
