Part 4: The Reminiscence of Prue.
For a moment the girls were worried they had killed Lily, but within a moment Lily woken up with a gasp, she glanced around her and glanced up towards the sisters and smiled, she and stood up looking towards them. "It worked."
"There is one problem Lily, the spell we cast had taken away all your powers from your vampire side. The ability not to grow old and the ability to heal yourself. Do you understand that Lily; you should be completely mortal" Piper said
"Okay." Lily replied. Lily walked out the circle of candles and over to the large window of the attic and glanced outside to the brightly-lit street, she smiled and then turned to Phoebe, "Let's go outside!" With that Lily ran past the three sisters and in to the hallway, the sisters followed.
"Wait, Lily." Phoebe said stopping Lily in her tracks. Lily looked up towards Phoebe. "You can't go out looking like a rag-doll. I'm pretty sure we have some old clothes around here for you to wear just until we go shopping."
"We don't really need to stay around for this do we?" Piper asked
Phoebe shook her head. "No, not really. Lily and I are going to go clothes shopping and bedroom shopping for her. You and I both know that Lily may have to stay with us for quite a while, so I think it would be wise. You and Paige can go to work; Lily and I will be okay alone."
Paige and Piper nodded and got ready for work. Meanwhile back in the attic, Lily and Phoebe fumbled though cardboard storage boxes to find some clothes and successfully found some old clothes. They were the clothes that Phoebe did not expect to find, they were of course a clothes set of her eldest sister's Prue's, which were the red and black long sleeved dress and stockings and black shoes. She remembered the clothes set from when her two eldest sister's Prue and Piper and traveled into past to stop their mother Patty from making a pact with the warlock named Nicolas. Phoebe had begun to reminisce her relationship with Prue, and tears fell down her face.
Lily looked over towards Phoebe and noticed her crying and so she walked over towards her to try and comfort her. Phoebe's saddened thoughts turned into happy thoughts thinking about the past, Phoebe smiled and took the clothes out of the box and handled them over to Lily.
"Here you go Lily, you can wear this today to the shops." Phoebe said happily.
"Thankyou Phoebe" Lily said happily and followed Phoebe out of the attic and into Phoebe's room.
"After you have a shower you can come in here and get dressed okay?" Phoebe said handing Lily bath towel, after directing her to the bathroom. "I will wait downstairs in the kitchen; I will get you some breakfast."
Lily carried her new clothes and bath towel from Phoebe into the bathroom and closed the door behind her after watching Phoebe go downstairs. Back up stairs Lily was trying to figure out how to use the shower and after a small mishap she got it working and started to wash herself.
After twenty minutes Lily worked out how to use the shower and put on the modern clothes, but keeping her dragon medallion on her and then went downstairs to find Phoebe drinking a cup of coffee and with breakfast cereal laid out for her.
After looking at Lily, Phoebe was reminded of Prue's child self, but of course Lily was not Prue.
By now Piper and Paige had went to work and Lily and Phoebe was in the kitchen talking about many modern things over breakfast, because Lily was not born into a world with cars, buildings or airplanes for that manner, Phoebe had to teach Lily about all things modern.
After breakfast Phoebe gathered her purse and Lily and went out the front door, Lily was happy she could see the sun against the blue sky and against the green grass, Lily smiled happily and ran out onto the road when they was car driving speedily in both directions. Lily was right in the middle of the road and a car was speeding at her, Lily was terrified and looked at the car but before Phoebe could yell out to stop her, one of Lily's powers was shown. Lily crouched down into a bundle on the road and within a moment everything around her was stopped in their tracks, the traffic, the birds and even the pedestrians on the footpaths were frozen.
However Phoebe and Lily were not frozen, Phoebe was confused; "Lily has the power to freeze time?" Putting away her confusion she knew that everything wont stay frozen for long and ran over to Lily helping her up from the ground and taking her onto the footpath, in that instant everything became unfrozen.
"Lily, what have I told you?" Phoebe asked sternly.
"That something's in the modern world are dangerous, like cars." Lily looked at her. "I'm sorry."
"It's okay dear, just be careful not to go on the roads without me by your side, you are out of your old kingdom now" Phoebe said caringly, while running her hand through Lily's brown locks of wavy hair. "Just stay by me until you learn how to make your way around in San Francisco okay?"
"Okay Phoebe" Lily nodded, understanding the full dangers of being in the modern world of America.
"Let's go shopping now shall we." Phoebe asked and walked back across the road carefully with Lily, and helped her into her car. With that Phoebe got into the driver's seat and pulled out the Halliwell Manor's driveway before driving down the road.
As Phoebe drove their way down the street she was very thoughtful of what Lily might be, but no one in their knew and neither did the elders. And so then sparked a question, Phoebe glanced over towards Lily, "Lily, what happened back there, with the cars?"
Lily stared blankly towards the dashboard for only a moment before glancing around before looking towards Phoebe. "I don't know what you are talking about."
"You stopped time, Lily. You stopped everything around you from moving"
Lily glanced down, "I didn't know that I did it. I'm sorry"
Phoebe looked over towards Lily once again, "Don't be sorry, apparently that was a magical power that saved you from being killed."
"I don't die so easily. Trust me"
Phoebe turned her sight back to follow the road down and into the car park of the mall, lost in thought she frowned thinking, It seems as though this child is more than she seems, more than we know, and whatever that is I am going to find out.
Even though Phoebe thought her thoughts about Lily were unheard Phoebe looked surprised to hear Lily's next set of words. "I believe there is much about me, but I am not so sure anymore." Phoebe called the car to a stop and climbed out of the driver's seat with Lily getting out the car also and walking over to her. "Phoebe, I want to know who I am and why am I here?"
