Chapter 5
This and the Next( and possibly a few later chapter) is a little different then the others.. part of it is NOT told in Prue's P.O.V, only for the sake she can not remember things about her sister and her mother. You will get Paige, Phoebe, Cole's, Leos, Joshua's, Philips, and Pyralis. And MAYBE if ur lucky.. Prue's (Big Prue not Little Prue lol)
I want to thank you all for reviews. I think I may have confused you all slightly. I would never STOP writing this story. Writing is the only way I can escape from reality and we all need to do that once and awhile. I was saying I would simply stop updating my writings. But on with the chapter.
Also I apologize on my lack of updating. I have had problems with my computer.. So bare with me on the lack of updates.
General. P.O.V.. Told by a Narrator
"Here these words.
Hear my cry Spirit from the other side.
Come to me, I summon thee.
Cross now the Great Divide"
Prue whispered the words as tears already threatened to fall. The candle light bounced off her face, showing her reflection in one of the old broken mirrors. A swirl of blue light suddenly filled the attic, before settling in the center of the circle, made by the candles, and came into form.
A sixteen year old girl, with long brown hair and piercing blue eyes stood the softest of smiles on her face. "I thought you don't age any longer once you die. Shouldn't you still be five years old?" Prue's voice wasn't exactly cold, but it wasn't the most welcoming.
"There are exceptions to all rules Prue. I wasn't suppose to die, so I am allowed to age till we reach 27 years of age, when I am suppose to die. THEN I shall stop ageing.
Prue just nodded at her sister. Melinda stepped out of the circle, and materialized fully before walking over and placing her arm around her sister. "I'm sorry hun. You know she wouldn't be able to come."
"But why?" Her voice was soft and shaky as she took comfort in her sisters shoulder.
"You have to heal Prue. So does the family and so does mom. Time only heals. Don't worry you'll see her again. I mean Aunt Prue is able to come ain't she?"
"MELINDA IT WAS 18 YEARS BEFORE SHE COULD COME. I can't wait 18 years. I just can't" More tears streamed down her pale face as she flopped down on the ground, letting her arms hit the floor in frustration. "I need her here now Mindy."
"I know. But I was lucky I could come." Prue let off a side ways smiled as she looked at her sister. "It has been to long."
"11 years. God have I missed you all. Do you know how much I wish I could be down here kickin' ass with ya'll"
"At least you have mom." Prue was beginning to calm her voice, but still their was cracks with each in take of breath.
"Now I do. I haven't been able to talk to you or her in 11 years. I missed you guys so much."
"We missed you to, we tried calling for you Mindy. Many of times, but the damn Elders.."
Melinda began to softly rock her sister as she was once again becoming hysterical. "I know Prue. I know. I was angry at first to. But I accepted it. You have to, also. She can still see you up their you know. I watch you. I am sure she is proud of you. As I am."
"Thanks. Tell her.. I.."
"I know. and so does she." Melinda let out a soft smile, as the door slowly creaked open and Phyre stood in the attic doorway, over hearing part of the conversation it didn't take her long to realize who Melinda was.
"Oh my god. You guys look so much alike." Phyre continued to stare, amazed on the girls looks, even know. "Well we ARE twins Phyre."
"But still. I mean.. You're dead."
All three girls let out a soft smile. "I have missed you both, but I must leave." Gently letting go of her sister, Melinda headed back towards the circle. Letting out one last reassuring smile, the blue lights soon began to form at her feet and were traveling up her body. "She loves you Prue. Does she ever. Give everyone both of our love." Her voice echoed in the attic long after her body had disappeared.
Phyre scratched the back of neck softly, staring down at her "broken" cousin. "At least Grams didn't come this time."
"I couldn't even remember Mindy. I can't even remember my own sister Phyre. I can't tell you her favorite color, her favorite food, what music she likes, or anything. She is my own sister."
Both girls stood in the awkward silence. Prue had her hands placed over her eyes, as the tears soaked through them. Phyre swallowed back a gasp, and titled her head softly, her green eyes full of sadness.
"Come on hun. We are on Patrol." ~~~
Paige's P.O.V.
~~ "Guys we are having twins." The biggest grin appeared on Piper's face as she rubbed her stomach in a circular motion. Leo stood behind her and as she announced the news, softly kissed her forehead.
"Oh my god Sweetie I am so happy for you." Phoebe jumped off Cole's lap and ran to Piper. Picking Piper up, she spun her around twice before setting her down and kissing her stomach. "Hi my little nieces. I can't wait for you to come out. I'm gonna teach you to kick box, and how to role out of a punch, and a little gymnastics and."
"Hey Phoebs. No way are you turning my nieces into little miniatures of you. One is enough." I glanced upwards at Joshua, and slapped his hand softly, which lay resting on my hips.
Phoebe shot him the evil eye. "Hey buddy they aren't your nieces for another 7 months. Their still ain't a ring on my sisters' finger."
"Their will be by the end of today. We are going shopping." I felt my cheeks blush softly as I also walked over and began playing with Piper's stomach.
"This calls for a celebration. Everybody in the kitchen for some wine. Except for you missy." Cole shook his finger in front of Piper's face playfully. "You can have some milk, or apple juice."
"Thanks Cole I appreciate it."~
** A sudden mixture of gray swirling smoke filled the room and everything suddenly blurred out of site. A few seconds latter everything came clearer, and everyone was once again in the kitchen. Except now, Phoebe's stomach was swollen quite large, and the two little girls only 2 and a half months old, lay in the daddies arm sleeping quietly. **
I laughed at Phoebe as she began putting hot sauce on her peanut butter and egg sandwich. "Alright that's just gross. Piper didn't even go through that."
"Well I don't know what to tell you. My children are fatter then Pipers." Chuckling softly, I shock my head as Cole rested his chin on my head. "This makes me feel short. But can you have your wife eat NORMAL food. I mean that's just gross."
He chuckled as well, "Sorry she's eating for three now."
"Yeah what's with this family and twins. I swear if I wind up the size of a watermelon when I get pregnant and there are TWO things coming out of me, Josh isn't allowed with in 40 yards of me."
Cole let out a smile, as Phoebe hit him in the back of his head, not exactly lightly either. "Don't laugh. You're getting their buddy." Before he could respond the tiny screams were heard through the house, and above them was Leo calling for help.
"I got him" I told Phoebe, who was already half way through her sandwich and raced in the front room, to see the once peaceful scene now held two tiny screaming babies and a frantic father.
"They are calling and Piper's at P3. Paige please help me." He looked so helpless I couldn't resist. Taking my nieces, I slowly began to rock them back and fourth and began singing them a song, as Leo smiled and orbed out.
After about ten minutes of my singing, they still continued to cry. Not as loud as before, but it wasn't stopping. I was beginning to get frustrated, and my knees were getting tired of "gently" bouncing.
"They don't like that song." Turning to see Piper with two large brown bags under her arms I let out a small smile at the site of her trying to balance them and close the door. Putting them down by the door, she reached her hands out for her babies.
I gladly handed them over, and picked up the bags to take them into the kitchen. I heard Piper's voice singing a soft old song I didn't recognize. I began putting the food away, at least what Phoebe wasn't grabbing and shoving in her face.
"That's the song mom use to sing to us." I glanced at Phoebe as she wiped a small tear from her eye. "I don't remember much, but I remember when ever I was scared or anything after mom died, I would run into Prue's room and Piper would not to soon after would come in their as well. And Prue use to sing us that song, saying it was mom's favorite and how she sung us to sleep when we were little with it."
I let out a soft smile and peeped behind the wall, to see the babies slowly closing their eyes and snuggling into the creases in Pipers shoulder as she sung them the beautiful song. Piper hadn't the best voice but the site made it seem like an angle singing. "Beautiful" I heard myself mutter, and I heard Cole saying something about soon that would be Phoebe." **
My breathing was faster than normal and I could feel my heart racing. I slowly began to sob, trying to soften the sound not to wake up Josh., to no avail. He slowly sat up, and wiped his eyes with the back of his hand before protectively wrapping his arms around me. I placed my head against his bare chest, and his steady heart beat slowly began to bring me back to reality.
We sat in silence a few minutes before he allowed a slight whisper to escape his mouth. "It's ok baby. It was a dream. Whatever it was can't hurt you."
"No Joshua, it was Piper."
"She came to you in a dream?"
"No, the past Piper. With Melinda and Prue and they were babies. Phoebe was pregnant, and we weren't married. First when she told us about the girls, and then one time when she song them to asleep. She was so beautiful."
"I know you miss her sweetie. But you have to start accepting her death; these dreams aren't helping you sleep. First, you kept reliving her death, and now you're remembering her past."
"I know. But I saw Melinda too. She was so tiny. And she clung to Prue, they were so protective of each other. Phoebe looked about 4 months with the girls, so Melinda and Prue had to be only a few months. Piper was so good with the girls." I felt the tears fall from my eyes and onto his chest. He didn't move his arms from around me, and for that I was grateful. He gently stroked my hair, and held me close as we lay their.
"I know you miss Melinda and Piper baby. So do I. We all do. Just try and go back to sleep."
