Chapter Fourteen: Forever Charmed
The news about witches and magic spread throughout the city like wild fire. Everyone was talking about it.
School was terribly different. Greg was right, Wiccans' were going to be persecuted. Sander and Greg stayed close through the day, with only two classes together they had to be careful. Thankfully, no one would think to link them to magic. Sander saw one of his best friends, Matthew getting hassled for wearing black and a pentagram. He was Wiccan.
"Hey, Darren, why don't you go do something more productive? You know like brush your teeth?" said Sander as he went up to his friend, and his attacker.
"You know what Wyatt?"
"What is that Darren?"
"Everyone knows that he's a witch, and that people like him attacked that man. You don't want people thinking you're one of them." growled Darren.
"Thanks for the tip. I can handle myself." smiled Sander, which was the truth, he did after all wield the power of sledgehammer with just the wave of a hand. Darren stalked off angrily, towards his group of friends.
"You okay, Matt?" asked Sander, as he opened his locker.
"Yeah. People just need to grow up. What do you think about that news report? Because I think it's a bunch of garbage. That man is probably lying about the whole thing." said Matt, as he waited for Sander to get his books.
"Yeah." said Sander, wishing he could tell people the truth, about him and the story.
However things for Pru, were even worse. Sacramento was alerted of the murder, and the College Board was organizing a raid on dorms looking for witch type stuff, spells, candles, incense, symbols, books, and even jewelry. Pru was scared because it was a witch hunt, and being who she was, it was dangerous. As her room was inspected, nothing was found. However, she did have a silver triquetra around her neck. Her mom and dad gave it to her when she turned eighteen and left for college. Sander and Greg have one too. Everyone in the family has a triquetra. Piper had the one from her 28th birthday, and her three children have one as well. It represented the unity of the three, together as one. Magic.
"Miss Wyatt, may we ask why you have a suitcase packed?" asked one of the administrators, as he noticed her suitcase, packed in the corner of the room.
"Family emergency, I need to go home." said Pru as she stared at the man.
"What is the nature of the emergency?"
"My grandmother is ill, and her time is limited." lied Pru, who looked sad, and her eyes were watering.
The man just mumbled and left the room. Since Pru's roommate was gone for the day, she called her dad. "Daddy!" Leo orbed in seconds later.
"Yes honey?"
"Orb me home. What if Mom needs the power of three?"
"Alright. Are you taking anything?"
"Yeah, my suitcase. Let's go." said Pru, as she placed one hand on the suitcase and another on her dad. And the two of them orbed out.
School went by uneventful for Greg and Sander. Matthew and his coven of two others, Denise and Christian, were persecuted and unfortunately, Sander wasn't there to help out. Everything changed again during fourth period, which Greg and Sander had together, Government. Mr. Jones was talking about the third amendment when the principal's voice was heard over the PA system.
"Attention to all teachers. Please turn on channel 8 for the twelve o'clock news."
Mr. Jones complied and turned on the television. The news reporter was sitting in her usual seat on the set, and behind her a black screen could be seen with fire, and the words WITCH HUNT in fire letters.
"And now, breaking news with Sharon Gobstone."
"Thank you Karen. I'm here at the home of Henry and Renee Keller. Supposedly, Henry found a witch book in his wife's study. The book, he said, contained a spell to kill demons. "What are demons exactly?" he asked us, for we didn't have an idea. He then told us his wife came into the study and yelled at him for touching her Book Of Shadows, or so she called it. He then told us she used her magic on him, by making him fly into the wall. He then in an attempt to quell her, he pulled his gun on her, and to no avail, she used her magic again and he fired. The bullets riddled her and she fell to ground in a pool of blood. He told us what her last words were: "With my death will make way for magic to live on, for the Charmed three will rise up and end this hunt. The hunt for which we were meant to die for. Blessed be." Again, this raises questions as to who are the Charmed Three? This is Sharon Gobstone reporting."
"Thank you Sharon, now we warn the public, if you come across a witch, be careful. The government is ruling them as dangerous to your safety."
"Oh my god, those freaks are out there." said a boy in the back of the class.
"Who are these Charmed freaks? They're evil I'm guessing!" yelled another boy in the back of the class. At that, Greg turned around and looked at his brother, who sat in behind him. Sander raised his eyebrows. For the first real time Sander felt scared, so did Greg.
"Will Lysander and Gregory Wyatt please report to the office for dismissal immediately. Thank you." came the principal's voice over the intercom. Sander and Greg got up and gathered their textbooks then went to the office.
"What is this about?" asked Greg to his brother as they walked to the office.
"I don't know."
They entered the office to see a grim looking Leo, and Mike. Leo looked as if he had been crying, and Mike looked as if he was mud wrestling. His black clothes were covered in mud.
"Dad? What's wrong?" asked Sander as they walked out to the car, "And why do you have Mom's car?"
"Boys, there's something I need to tell you." said Leo, tears coming to his eyes.
"What is it?" said Greg angrily.
"There was an attack. Your Mom tried to freeze him and blow him up but it was useless. He killed her." cried Leo as he broke into tears.
"No, No, No! MOM IS NOT DEAD!!" screamed Sander, not caring who heard him.
"Who?" said Greg, who was letting his emotions get the better of him.
"The demon Malikik." said Mike as he tried to comfort Sander, who was on the ground crying.
"This isn't happening." said Sander as he shook back and forth like a little child.
The car ride home was silent. Sander and Greg's cars were left at the school for the time being. Mike sat in the back with Sander, who cried on his shoulder. Greg sat in the front next to his dad, staring out the window, tears silently streaming down his face. Leo kept his eyes on the road, Sander could tell Leo couldn't cry anymore.
"Where is mom's body?" said Greg as he broke the silence.
"The Manor with Pru. Pru came home because of the hysteria, but when she got home Mom was fighting the demon. Pru saw the demon kill your mom, she vanquished him in rage, but she didn't know what to do. I tried to heal her, but it was too late. Pru I think called the coroner." said Mike.
"What do we tell people?" said Sander, who finally stopped crying.
"I guess we can say car accident. Like we did with Prue and Phoebe." suggested Leo, as he pulled into the driveway.
Pru was standing on the front porch, angry. Her face was red, and streamed with tear smudges. She wore all black, and her triquetra was noticeable. Sander and Greg both got out of the car and ran up to her, and embraced her.
"We have to be strong for Mom." said Sander through his tears.
"We have to live our destiny. As the Charmed Ones." said Greg, who lost it completely and balled his eyes out.
"Forever Charmed." said Pru, who too was crying.
I hope you all liked. Yes it is sad that Piper died. What's Leo going to do? Is he going to stay with his family? Or leave? A new power and a new destiny will be revealed in the coming chapters! Review!!! Thanks, Damien455
