Pyrena – Yeah! We should plan a subplot in our stories where Pam and Phelicia trade places by accident! It would be so funny! I'm glad you liked it!

Princess Pinky – Yeah, I know I rock lol! And Christie and Loretta are bitches aren't they? Don't you just love to hate them? And Zach doesn't know about Pam's feeling, since she doesn't even know herself yet! And did you think that I would Lexa and Jesse down two teammates? I have plans, and they won't be completely not in it, they just have a lesser role. And TRUST ME! When Melinda and Emma (Paige's twins) are born, they're gonna blow both boys out of the water, being twins, they have an unstoppable magical bond!

Prince Halliwell – Yeah, it's a telepathic blast! And Piper's outburst was so her! And you'll need to wait and see about Pam and Zach (taps nose) and a little bit of hijynx from Chris there lol!

Piperfairy – Yeah, it's the same Zach, I liked his character. And… Connor isn't born until Chapter 36, sorry!

Wyatt halliwell – I'm glad you liked it! And wait and see about Pam and Zach!

Aidan Parker And The Chamber Of Secrets

Paige awoke peacefully, the sun coming through a small crack in the curtains and landing on her face. She turned over to see that Aidan was already up, which was odd, as he told her that he wasn't working today. They had both manage to manevour a day where they both had a day off work so they could spend some time together. She slid out of the bed and pulled on a pair of Aidan's boxers and one of his shirts before opening the bedroom door and walking into the main area.

Paige loved this apartment, it was on the top floor of a fifteen story building, which is was one of the only places in the building that had high ceilings and a beautiful skylight, which let you seethe stars every night and allowed an amazing amount of light into the place. The kitchen was really part of the living room, since the area was so big, all it needed were some kitchen worktops and cooking appliances She heard something sizzling in the kitchen area, eggs were sitting in one of the big pans and were about to burn! Paige quickly grabbed the spatula and moved them around so that her breakfast wouldn't be ruined. It wasn't like Aidan to leave something like this that could be dangerous, and why did he leave the gas on? Paige was forced to think of the one possible explanation. Demon attack.

A large glowing portal suddenly opened in the living room, Paige raised her hand, ready to send whatever came through that portal into the wall. Aidan walked casually through the vortex ad appeared next to Paige, who lowered her hand.

'Hey,' Aidan smiled

Paige pointed at the portal now closing, 'What the hell was that all about?'

'That?' he gestured behind him, 'Oh, just some Elemental stuff, how are my eggs?' he walked to the kitchen

'Hold it!' Paige put the greasy spatula on his chest to stop him 'You can't just come through a portal and expect me not to ask questions!'

Aidan rolled his eyes, 'I told you! Elemental stuff! What do you think I was doing?'

'I don't know! And that's what scares me!'

He sighed, 'Look I'll explain after I change my shirt,' he pointed at the greasy stain on his top and walked into the bedroom. Paige followed him in shortly after, she went up to him and ran her hands over his well-built chest.

'Look, I'm sorry… I just… When you come through a portal at eight am, I tend to want to know where you've been.

He pulled a tight t-shirt over his shoulders and soothed her by rubbing her arms, 'I know, and I promise that you'll understand soon,'

'Okay… I'll go over to Piper's, see if she's busy,' Paige sighed, 'So much for our romantic day off,'

Aidan smiled, 'C'mon Paige, if I get this sorted out, our day could still end with a bang,' he raised his eyebrows

Paige smirked, 'Down boy, I'll see you later,' and with that, he was consumed with water and disappeared.


Piper ran through the dining room with Chris in her arms, the vase on the table blowing up as she did.

'Chris, honey, stay here!' she ordered, the little boy just nodded and hid under the table while his Mom fought off the demon. Piper blasted the demon back into the sunroom and ran in, but the demon shimmered out of her way and reappeared, standing in front of her.

'Why don't you damn Mantis demons ever give up?' Piper growled as she ducked out of the way of its sharp scythes, which it was swinging about crazily. One of the scythes made contact with Piper's stomach, cutting her slightly and sending her flying towards the wall that separated the living room and sunroom. She thought quickly and phased out, going through the wall and landing on the stairs.

The Mantis demon shimmered in front of her again and was about to bring down his deadly scythe, when he was sent flying towards the door by an unknown force.

Paige walked in from the dining room with Chris on her hip.

'Catch you at a bad time?' Paige offered a hand to help up her sister.

'Ugh…' was the response, Piper made a quick gesture towards the ground, a brown light emitting from her palms and going into the floor. She kept doing this until a cloud of orange light burst forth around the Mantis demon, vanquishing it instantly.

'Wow, someone finally got a handle on their new power…' Paige said, impressed

'It's hardly new Paige, I've had it for a year, and my yard has never looked better!' she beamed.

Paige laughed, 'Anyway, what was that all about?'

'Ugh… Swarm of Mantis demons are in town, they've stopped by uninvited several times,'

'Sounds serious,' Paige put a supportive hand on her sister's shoulder, 'I don't see how you're coping without me,'

'Yeah, yeah… Could you look after Chris? I need to go P3 and finalise stuff with 'The Killers' manager, they're playing at the club in a couple of weeks,'

'Sure… I need to check the book anyway,' Paige set her nephew down

Piper groaned again, 'I don't even wanna know why…' she headed for the door and picked up her car keys, she saw the weather outside and cursed, 'Snow!' she turned back to Paige, 'Tell your boyfriend to sort out this mess! And soon!' she walked out into the fresh blizzard and slammed the door.

Paige bent down to Chris, 'Hey, you wanna learn more about uncle Aidan?'

'Sure! Does that mean I can look at the Book Of Shades?' he said hopefully,

Paige stifled a laugh, 'Yes it does!' she hoisted him onto her hip and climbed the stairs to the attic. Once there, she flipped the pages until she found what she was looking for. The Elementals page.

It was one of the most extravagant pages in the book, flames were in the bottom right corner, a wave of water across from that, a tornado above it, and a tree sat in the top right corner. The ancient Wiccan symbols for the four elements were also there Paige began to read

Elementals are the four immensely powerful beings that that protect and balance the world. With the powers of earth, wind, water and fire, it is very rare to them to be seen or attacked. However, not all Elementals are born as one, sometimes they are chosen when another has fallen. There is a legend that the very essences of the elements themselves are kept in the Elemental Chamber, a heavily guarded place that exists on another plane, elementals are brought here by the others to receive their powers and to be blessed by the four planets that are said to govern over each element. Venus is said to govern Earth, Mercury to Water, Mars to Fire and Jupiter to Wind.

She turned the page, hoping to find more information, but when she realised that that was the entire book had, she hit the page,

'Oh come on! Beings that have been around for centuries and there's only a page!' the pages of the book suddenly began to move by their own, an unknown wind moving the pages until it settled on one of the pages in the summoning section.

Paige went back over to the book, and was about to read, when there was a crash downstairs that attracted her attention.


Pamela flew into the coffee table, her books flying out of her hands and onto the floor while her stomach bled freely. Zach quickly fired a telepathic blast at the Mantis demon and ran over to help Pamela up. Jenna concentrated on the demons mind, finally conjuring an illusion in the form of all three Charmed Ones. They walked towards the demon and began to say the spell

'Dark being of the foulest order,

Your filthy soul will cross the border,

Bend to the will of the Power Of Three,

And a fiery vanquish you will see!'

The Mantis wailed in pain as his body began to come apart in the flames. It exploded, leaving a scorch mark on the floor. Pamela winced in pain from Zach helped her sit up,

'Aunt Paige!' she breathed out of her teeth, still in pain.

Paige was running down the stairs with Chris, 'Here, hold him,' she handed him to Jenna as she put her hand over Pamela's stomach and the cut healed instantly.

'Ugh… Damn bugs,' Pamela groaned as Jenna and Zach helped her up.

'How long have these guys been attacking you?' Paige asked

'For about a week, usually Emma, Aunt Piper and me are here, but not always,' she replied,

'Wow… I'm really out of the loop these days!'

'Yeah, I came here to do some homework and that asshole threw me into the table!'

'Language,' Paige scolded, Pam rolled her eyes,

'C'mon you guys, my room's this way, you wanna come, Chris?'

'Okay!' He took Pam's hand and they climbed the stairs.

Paige walked into the kitchen, getting the dustpan and brush so she could clean up the glass of the vase that was in pieces on the dining room table. She bent down to sweep up the remains when there were noises coming from upstairs.

'Not again… I don't even live here,' Paige groaned before orbing out to the source of the noise.


The alter was blasted with an energy ball, blasting the Book Of Shadows into the wall. Paige surveyed the scene; Aidan was on the ground healing the Wind Elemental, Skye, while Danielle, the Fire Elemental, seemed to meditating. Paige soon saw what she was doing when fire suddenly sprang forth from the floor, engulfing the demons in flames and killing them.

Pamela walked in and looked around the attic, 'What the hell… Is this place like a truck stop for demons!'

Paige let out a sigh, healing an unconscious man on the ground, 'Pretty much… Wait a minute, who the hell is this I'm healing?'

Aidan helped Skye to her feet before answering, 'Uh… He's the Earth Elemental,'

'Really?' Pamela looked at the guy, 'He doesn't look like a fearless leader to me… Although he is pretty hot,' Paige hit her on the arm, 'Sorry… That time of the month,' Aidan cringed at her fearless proclamation.


Piper climbed the steps into the Manor, overly aware of the fact that there was someone parked outside watching her. She suddenly remembered what Paige had told her some reporter from Phoebe's newspaper being after them. Phoebe… A pang of sadness hit Piper; she hoped that her sister would return home soon, as Elise had been calling recently, wanting to talk to her about expanding her column. Piper had just told her to e-mail her, but Elise had put up a fight, wanting to speak to Phoebe in person, but she had won eventually.

Not only that, the entire family missed her like crazy! Wyatt and Chris would ask where their Aunt 'Phee' was, and the recent Power Of Three spells hadn't packed the same power, Pamela and Emma just couldn't keep up when it came to powers, Pam was too young and Emma, she just wasn't Charmed.

Piper but her hand on the handle, but it flew open from the other side and a man stormed out.

'This is too much for me… I'm outta here!' he stomped down the stairs

'Grant! Come back!' Paige shouted out the door before noticing her big sister, 'What are you waiting for? Freeze him!'

'I can't!' Piper nodded towards the reporter's car, who was watching the scene intently.

'Ugh… Great,'

'Mind filling me in?'

Paige walked back into the house with the oldest Halliwell close behind. Piper saw all the people in the living room and just gaped, not knowing what was going on.

'I think you've met everyone, there's Skye and Danielle, we saved them from the brink of death,' the two Elementals just nodded wordlessly.

'Okay, what's going on?'


'What! You failed!'

'They went to the Charmed Ones, sir! My entire group was vanquished by the Fire Elemental!' the Mercenary demon cowered before Auron, his current client.

'The Charmed Ones? Ha! They are no threat without the middle sister! Don't use it as an excuse!'

'But the three remaining are strong! Even without the Earth Elemental!' he squeaked

Auron closed his eyes, the markings on his eyelids made it look as if he had no eyes. He smiled,

'They are beginning to split up to cover more ground,' he suddenly scowled, 'Your men were sloppy, they've left residue that the witches can scry with,' he opened his eyes.

'Just out of curiosity, why do you want the Elementals powers?'

He smirked, 'That's easy, so I can control the rest of them,'


Paige sat on a stool, looking at the Book of Shadows, which was now sitting on a new altar as Aidan stood next to her. She was looking through the pages carefully, not wanting to miss anything out. Finally losing patience, she shouted, 'Auron!' while using her telekinesis. The pages flew forward, finally landing on one in the demon section.

'Is this the guy?' she tapped the picture

Aidan leaned over her, Paige could smell his cologne, 'Mmm… Yeah, he's the one… upper level…astral projection…power hungry…' Piper walked into the room as he finished.

'Okay, Danielle and Emma went to go get Grant. If he puts up resistance, Emma can just zap him! And Skye, Pamela and me are going to take out the mercenary demons,'

'Do you know where they are?' Paige rested her elbows on the book

'Yeah, we scryed with some of the dust left from the attack, you coming?'

'Uh…' she glanced at Aidan, 'No, you guys won't need me, you're all a lot more powerful,'

Piper looked back and forth between her baby sister and Aidan before smirking and walking out the room. Paige went to look at how to vanquish Auron, when a mystical wind blew into the attic, scattering the pages and making them land on a certain one.

'A summoning spell for… hidden unknowns?' Aidan read from the book while pulling a face at the same time, 'Maybe the book's just delusional,' he said, flipping back to the Auron page, but the books flipped back to the summoning spell.

'Or maybe… It's trying to tell us something,' Paige looked at the spell, 'I think it's about us, rather than Auron,' she looked up at him before looking down and saying the spell, much to Aidan's surprise.

'Something lurks, within my soul

Doubt that is, as black as coal,

Reveal the truth, show to me

All the answers I'm meant to see,'

A blue portal opened up in the middle of the room, it looked a lot like the one Aidan had come through that morning. She gave him a look before walking into it and he reluctantly followed.

Paige looked around her surroundings, wherever she was, it was the most beautiful place she had ever seen! It was a large cave, except that the walls hummed and glowed softly, Paige could hear a breath taking song being played somewhere.

'It's the Angel's Melody,' Aidan appeared next to her, 'No one knows where it comes from, but it's never stopped playing,'

She looked down, noticing that water lay beneath them; they where standing on a large stone island and the rest was dotted with smaller stone pillars. There were four large islands, similar to the one they were standing on, and each glowed with the colours of green, red, blue and purple. Paige could only gape at this… heaven.

'Angel's Melody…' she turned to Aidan, 'You know where we are?'

He nodded, 'The Elemental Chamber,'

'Well… Thanks for letting me in,' a voice said, both swivelled round to see Auron on the edge of the portal, stepping in just in time, before it closed.


'Okay, this makes no sense, the crystal keeps dropping here! They're around somewhere!' Piper exclaimed as they she threw the crystal onto the ground of the alley they were in. Skye was about to say something, when her eyes went misty,

'Oh my God…'

'What?' asked Pamela, who had returned from her sweep of the rat infested place. Danielle flamed in with Emma and Matt, who seemed reluctant.

'Skye… Did you sense that?' Skye merely nodded

'Sense what?' Emma asked, completely confused

'A demon has infiltrated our Sanctuary,'


Paige deflected the fireball, the attack hitting off Auron's chest and knocking him back a bit. He shook it off just in time to put up his hand and stop the wave of icicles that Aidan had thrown.

'Silly beings! You can't defeat me!' he roared.

'No… But we can,' a woman's voice said, Auron spun round to see the cavalry had arrived in the form of everyone, 'Skye! Now!' Danielle shouted, both Elementals assaulting the demon with fire and lightning. Aidan joined by throwing a powerful jet of water at him. All of this still wasn't enough, so Piper jumped in and used her geokinetic abilities to complete the pattern.

Thunder crashed as Auron screamed and writhed in the powerful attacks, he began to disintegrate from the feet up and was vanquished.

'Well,' Pamela walked up to the ashes, 'At least he went out with a bang,'


Paige was staring out onto the moonlit city of San Francisco from her living room, she smiled when a pair of arms snaked around her waist from the back and someone began kissing her neck,

'When I turn round, I hope I see Aidan Parker,' she joked,

'Mmm… If you don't turn round, I'll just need to keep doing this,' he kissed the point that connected her shoulder and neck. Reluctantly, she turned around to face him, although she was met by a passionate kiss, which made up for the loss of love for her neck.

'So, are we okay?' he asked

'We never were not okay… I just don't see why you hide these things from me when they just end up amazing me!'

He smiled, 'I'll try and remember to tell you all the details of being an Elemental,' he grinned, 'But right now, let's just have a private moment shall we?' he picked up in his arms and he splashed them out to the bedroom, Paige's giggles echoing along the way.


NEXT TIME: After a major slip up during ghost vanquishing talk, Emma's dark secret is finally revealed and the sisters don't know how to treat her. She leaves the Manor, only to find comfort in the arms of the new Earth Elemental

Chapter 32 'The Truth Revealed' will be up soon!
