Chapter Eight: Breaking in the Magic

Its been over a week since Piper and Leo introduced magic to the children. Piper was so thankful that she got her powers back, she realized what she did in binding their powers was just wrong. She knew deep down that magic would find its way to them. It took Pru, Sander and Greg sometime to get use to Leo orbing in and out of the house now.

All three were strictly told not to use magic unless it was absolutely needed. Sander was really into magic. He would stay up late talking to his mom, and reading the Book Of Shadows. His power was still developing. For the first couple of days, he had telekinetic fits, where things just flew around the house because of his anger. Piper explained to him the importance of keeping his anger controlled, and that his power is channeled through his eyes and hands.

Greg buried himself in his work, at Electronic Boutique, and lacrosse practice. He was happy with his powers, but was reluctant. He liked to pretend to go home and act as if he had no powers. He had not read the Book of Shadows but in the safety of his bedroom, when Sander wasn't in there, he practiced his power. He didn't want things to change, but change was bound to happen, but people change not their entire lives.

Pru on the other hand pretends she has no power. She has yet to receive a premonition and doubts she ever will. She has been so busy with school, and cheerleading, she didn't even care to bother with it. She didn't believe that she had a power, but she respected her mom and never said any of this outloud.

"Good morning." yawned Sander as he entered the kitchen on a warm Monday morning.

"Morning to you too son!." said a joyous Leo. "Why the smile, Dad?" asked Sander as he took his usual spot next to his dad. "Do I need a reason?"

Piper was rushing around the kitchen making an overly elaborate breakfast. She loved to cook for her family.

Pru walked into the kitchen, wearing a pink halter top, and a short mini skirt. "No way in hell are you going to school in that." said Piper not even looking at Pru.

"Mom, everyone is wearing it." argued Pru, but she knew to back off.

"Where the hell is your Brother?" asked Piper.

"Mom, are you tense about something?" asked Sander, as he drank some juice.

"No, it's just that I miss my sisters."

"Mom, that was like twenty years ago, its okay to move on. They wont be angry." said Pru as she comforted her mom, she always comforted Piper when Piper had an emotional upheaval.

"I know."

The family was sitting at the table eating a delicious breakfast, when a noise was heard in the living room. The Wyatt family got up together and walked to the living room, Piper leading.

In the living room, was an ugly demon with green skin and red eyes. "Mom! What is it?" asked Pru, scared.

"A demon. Stay calm." ordered Piper as she raised her hands to blow him up. The demon flung his arm and Piper went flying into the wall and was knocked unconscious.

"Greg! Freeze him!" said Pru as she checked on her mom. The demon jumped up and was about ready to pounce on Greg. Greg, rose his hands and the demon stopped mid-jump.

"Bastard!" said Sander as he squinted his eyes and moved the demon into the grandfather clock. "Oops."

The demon ran back at them, Leo moved in front of them, and orbed them to safety. They reappeared in the attic. "What do we do?" asked Pru, scared.

"The Book." said Sander as he ran towards it. Sander automatically started to flip through the pages, trying to find the demon.

"Here he is. Detra, the demon of despair. He inflicts despair to his victims by clouding up their judgement. Powers include telekinesis, supernatural jumping, and energy balls." read Sander, as he turned the podium for his siblings to read. Pru ran her hand over the drawing as was hurled into her first premonition.

Premonition (Trough her Eyes)
Sander telekinetically sending Detra into the wall of the attic. An energy ball is thrown at Greg, Greg freezes it. Leo in the corner healing Piper. A blast of mental energy is thrown at Sander, he dodges, but gets thrown out the window. Leo orbs out and orbs back in with Sander. Piper wakes and blows the demon's arm off. Demon jumps into the air, to be met with a freeze from Piper. Sander, Greg and I are at the Book. We read the spell, and the demon blows up

End Premonition

"Pru? What happened?" asked Greg concerned.

"A vision. Okay its in our favor. Sander stay away from windows if you can. We need him to jump, so we can freeze him and say the spell. "explained Pru as Detra emerged int the attic.

"Dad, revive Mom!" yelled Pru as she dodged an energy ball.

Detra moved in and telekinetically flung Sander. Sander was pulled to the left, and his body sailed directly through the glass, and he began his plummet to the ground. Leo orbed out in a swirl of light and reappeared with Sander.

Detra ran at Greg, who instantly froze him in place, for the time being.

Piper awoke to see the broken window, and Leo healing her son. In anger, she rose up and flung her hands. The demon's arm glowed yellow, then blew up. Piper stared at it. "That's new."

Detra, who was no unfrozen rose up into the air as if to pounce on Piper. Piper froze him, and motioned for her kids to say the spell.

The three kids gathered around the book, and started to read the spell:
"Demon of Despair in our sight
Take your place in depths of night
With this spell we seal your fate
In hell you take rightful space"

Detra glowed red, and then burst into a ball of flames.

"Congratulations. That was your first and not your last demon vanquish. Now go straighten up, school starts in ten." said Piper as she hugged each of her kids as they walked out of the attic.

Piper went to the Book, as Leo healed the window. Piper glanced at a page in the book, which was surprising to her. "Leo come read this." said Piper. Leo walked over and read over her shoulder the contents of the pages.

There was a picture of Prue, Piper and Phoebe on the left side of the Book, and on the right read: The Charmed Ones. Then there were three smaller paragraphs under the heading.

She is mother of three with her whitelighter husband. Her past life incarnation was P. Baxter, whose power was temporal stasis.

Phoebe Halliwell. November 2, 1975 June 14, 2001. Phoebe was the youngest Charmed One. Her powers included Premonition, and levitation.

Phoebe died along side her sister against the demon, Grogs. She had no children.

"Leo, I didn't know the book entered us into it." said Piper, surprised.

"Yea, the book does things all on its own. That's the beauty of magic." smiled Leo as he kissed his wife and they descended the stairs.
