Chapter 3
_____________________________________________________________________________________________
The next morning Chris woke up to the smell of breakfast cooking, he groggily sat up and rubbed his eyes from sleep. He stood up, stretched and orbed to the bathroom to take care of his business and cleaned up. After he was done he orbed back down to the living room and walked to the kitchen to see who was up already. When he walked in, he was hit fully in the face with the delicious aromas of all sorts of food.
He looked around and saw plates on the center counter, each filled with all sorts of foods. There were bacon, ham, sausages, pancakes, toast and eggs cooked in different styles, from scrambbled to poached to sunny side up.
"Good morning, so how you sleep last night?" Piper voice asked which broke Chris's stare at the morning meal.
"Ah fine, not great but good enough." replied the teen. He looked over to where Piper was, she was standing at the stove cooking something. She was also looking through the Book of Shadows at the same time.
"So what you'll like this morning, coffee, tea, milk, apple juice, orange juice?" asked Piper.
"Orange juice is fine."
Piper walked over to a cabinet, took out a drinking glass and filled it with orange juice and handed it to Chris.
"Thanks." Chris thanked Piper as he took the glass of juice from her.
A few minutes later Phoebe and Paige walked in.
"Morning." greeted the two younger sisters at the same time.
They went over to the counter, grabbed their own drinks and sat down where Chris was seated at.
"Well lets eat." announced Piper as she brought over the last egg and placed the frying pan in the sink.
"Where's Leo?" asked Phoebe, seeing her brother in law not anywhere in sight.
"The Elders called him this morning, he had a lot of explaining to do."
As they started to eat, Piper continued to look through the Book of Shadows. Not a few seconds later Leo orbed in.
"So what did they say?" asked Piper anxiously, seeing her husband who finally came back from his meeting with the Elders.
"I explained everything to them and decided that me taking the position of an elder wasn't meant to be so I'm relieved from the duties."
"And that means?" Piper pressed hopefully.
"That I will be staying with you guys as you whitelighter again, along with Chris." explained Leo as he grabbed some toast.
"Thats great!" exclaimed Phoebe happily. And everyone else nodded with an grinning smile.
"So Piper, have you found anything in the Book of Shadows?" asked Paige.
"Nothing so far."
"Why don't I keep looking while you eat." offered Chris as he reached over and took the book from Piper and continued to look through it, where Piper stopped at.
"Something still puzzles me Chris." said Paige.
"Yes." said Chris for Paige to continue as he flip through the pages.
"I thought only the blood of our family can look through the Book of Shadows, so may I asked how can you?" (Note: I forgot how the Book of Shadows works so this is how I put it.)
At that question everyone looked at Chris with a good question look.
"I can explain that.
Back in my time, when I was in the safe house with Wyatt we decided on a plan to attack the Titans. During the fight I was injured and lost a lot of blood, when they brought me back they managed to heal me but I had a large blood lost and I would need a tranfusion. Of the whole safe house only Wyatt had the same blood type as me, so he volunteered to be my donor. That the reason why because back in my time I looked through it before but maybe it was the lifebond with Wyatt as well." explained Chris.
"Lifebond?" asked Piper.
In a nervous and uncomfortable voice he explained, "Its almost like being married but not offically."
"My son is married and only being 20." Piper sighed.
"Stop worrying honey, at least we know that they love each other very much." assured and comforted Leo.
"Ah, here it is the page on the elements." said Chris trying to get off the subject when he found what he was looking for.
"What does it say?" asked Paige curiously.
"The Four Elements.
The four elements known as Wind, Water, Earth and Fire are known to be the greatest and oldest magic sources known. They lived back to the time before the earth was created. They are known to be the elements to create the world as well. As any being they eventually pass away but reincarnated through time their souls along with their powers. Every life they live, they will always be friends. One of the elements with be the soulmate of another, alway together in every life to complete one another.
As Wind is with Water creation of storms to bring life, as Earth is with Fire creation of the earth to grow life." finished Chris.
"So according to the book all we need to do is to find one of the elements and we can find the others as well. Find one element and their boyfriend or girlfriend will be another element." sorted out Phoebe.
"Yes but how do we find one, there is so many people in San Francisco. It will take forever." said Paige.
"Not really, all we need to do is to reveal the information on this scroll to help us." putted Leo as he took out the scroll that he was given.
Before anyone could say anything else the phone rang. Seeing Phoebe was the closest one she walked over and picked up the phone.
"This is the Halliwells.
Oh, morning Elsie. What? You want me to come in? Its kind of urgent? Alright fine I'll be in awhile." and she hanged up.
"Sorry guys but Elsie want me to come into the office. Sorry Chris." Phoebe apologized.
"That okay, you guys still have your own lives to life anyhow."
Phoebe then left the kitchen to change and get back to her office.
"Well let clean up this mess then we could head up to the attic and see if we could open this scroll." suggested Piper as she went over to the sink.
"I'll go check on Wyatt." and Leo orbed out.
--------------------
At Phoebe's work place, she finally arrive.
As she walked to her desk, her boss walked in and following behind her was a young man about 20 years old. He had a messy mop like sandy blonde hair that were at neck length, light blue eyes and light colored skin. He was an inch or two shorter than Chris and had Chris's body build.
"So what was so urgent, that you called me in today?" asked Phoebe.
"Phoebe I would like you to meet Aaron Winsor he's our new comic artist for our paper he just moved here. Aaron this is Phoebe Halliwell, you will be under her supervision for now." Phoebe's boss introduced.
"Uh, nice to meet you. Comic artist?" she shook hand with the teen and look over at her boss in question.
"I thought this is a good idea to get younger readers to buy our paper. So I'll leave it to you guys. Oh yeah Phoebe, because of the successful charity we pulled off I thought to have an celebration. I was wondering if I could use your sister's club again."
"A celebration?"
"Yes, this Friday."
"Three days from now?!"
"Yes that right."
"Alright I'll ask her then."
"Thanks. Well I'll leave you two now." and Elsie walked off.
"So you just move here?" asked Phoebe.
"Yeah, I lived back in New York and when I finished my schooling, we decided to move here." replied Aaron shyly.
"So you moved here with your parents."
"Um no my parents wanted to stay in New York, so I moved here with my significate other."
"Oh, your girlfriend."
"Um, actually my boyfriend. I hope you don't mind that sort of thing." Aaron said hopefully.
"No don't worry I don't. I have a friend that is gay as well." assuring the teen as she thought back of Chris.
"Thanks." Aaron thanked.
"So you're a comic artist?"
"Well not just a comic artist. Besides drawing cartoons, I draw real life objects as well along with people. I also draw comic styles from those super hero comics as well."
"You have quite a talent then." appraised Phoebe.
"Yeah, that what all my friends say as well. So what do I do now?" asked the new staff member.
"Well lets see. Damn I forgot my work and stuff at home, I have to go back and get it. Hey, do you want to come along? I could show you around and you could meet my family." offered Phoebe when she looked around finding that she had forgot her things at the manor. She already had take a liking to the teen, and be friends with him easily.
"Um okay, are you sure?" accepted the teen comic artist.
"Yes, I'm sure. My sisters won't mind. Besides we have someone living there that you might want to become friends with seeing that you just moved here."
"Okay then."
And they left the office and head towards the Halliwell's home.
