Hey guys! I'm back, and with a vengance! See what you make of it! And remember: review!
Disclaimer: I own no one or anything in this fic but Phynn.
Grams' hands shook slightly as she reached forward and took Phynn into the other arm. (AN: Remember, she's holding Chris, too.) There were tears in her eyes as she surveyed her two new great-grandchildren. "A girl, Piper!" she said happily. Piper smiled right back. "See? I told you we could carry on the tradition just fine." Pheobe put her arms around Piper's neck and hung on her, smiling as well.
Grams bounched the babies in her arms gently and cooed at them. She looked up inot her eldest grandaughter's face. "Twins?" Piper nodded, and said, "We were only expecting Chris, but I guess Phynn decided to come along for the ride." Grams laughed. "Well, I'm glad she did. It's about time we had another girl Halliwell. Now, have you done anything for their wiccaning yet?" Piper looked down. "Uh..." Grams sighed exasperatedly. "Good heavens, girl. Come, we have a lot to do."
Pheobe took Chris, but Grams refused to relinquish Phynn as she led the way downstairs. "Now, you must tell me all that's been happening." She said when they all got situated on the couches and chairs in the living room.Chris, Wyatt, and Phynn were on the floor on a pallet, playing and listening to the adults talk.
"Well," Piper began, "A few days ago Phynn and Chris displayed their powers." Grams took it in stride. "Really? At this age? What can they do?" " So far, Chris has only shown his whitelighter powers, but Phynn-"
At that moment, there was an explosion that blew everyone out of their seats. A demon burst in through the stairwell, and snarled at the moaning adults on the floor. Piper stoodand tried to blow him up, but the demon then threw an energy ball at her. She grunted as she hit the floor hard in an effort to dodge it, but it still burned her on the side as it hissed past, shattering the window behind her.
The demon bent down to pick up the children, but Chris put up a force field. Wyatt was crying; he'd hit his head on the hardwood floor when the explosion had knocked him over. Chris and Phynn had been lying down, and so had missed the blast.
Phynn waved her arm at the demon as before, and he caught fire.He screamed, then exploded into ash. Now Grams was suprised. "Did she just..." Piper nodded as she pushed herself up. "Yep, she's got my powers. I should have used them, actually." She quickly walked over and picked up the crying Wyatt. Sensing their brother's pain, or maybe just reacting to the attack, Phynn and Chris began to cry, too. (AN: The babies are not empaths, they just have a strong bond with each other and Wy) Grams and Paige picked them up, and soon they had all quieted. "Leo!" called Piper. Her husband orbed in. "What happened?" he asked, looking around at the destroyed living room. "Another attack. Did the elders find anything?" Leo sighed. "No." Piper looked angry and was about to start a tirade, but Leo said quickly," They're trying, sweetheart. We're doing all we can; it's going to take time. Demon factions don't just tell us who they are, you know." "I know, Leo." piper looked at Wyatt in her arms, then at her other children in Grams's and Paige's. "I have to go." Leo said. He kissed Piper quickly and orbed out again.
To lighten the mood, Grams said," I assume you called me here because you needed a wiccaning?" "A double wiccaning." put in Pheobe. Paige handed Chris to Pheobe and clapped her hands once.
"Okay, I'm going to make another batch of potion in case those creeps come back.She turned in a swirl of orange hairand headed towards the kitchen.Pheobe handed Chris to Piper and kissed Grams and the babies quickly. "I have to go back to work before elise kills me. Bye! And don't worry, Piper, I'll be back in time tonight."She grabbed her keys and purse on her way out the door.
Piper and Grams took Phynn, Wyatt, and Chris into the kitchen as well, and set them up in their carry chairs. Then they walked over to where Paige was fixing the potion, and began to talk about the demons again. "There have been at least six attacks in the last two weeks alone. All of them, save for this last one, have been the same type of demon." Paige said as she mixed ingrediants. "What kind of demon?" asked Grams. "Aren't they in the book?" Piper took over. "That's what's so wierd. They are in the book, but they're only Assasine Demons. Someone is sending them; a relentless someone. Basil." Paige threw her the bottlefrom where she was measuring herbs. Piper added a pinch to the smoking pot on the stove. Grams threw in a few ingrediants that went well and that she kew to be powerful. "Okay, stand back." Paige warned. They retreated a few steps and Paige threw in a pig's foot. (AN:Because they potion was not for a specific demon, they didn't need flesh.)
There was a small explosion of smoke and a bang, then Piper, paige, and Gramsstepped back to the stove, vwaving away the smoke. "Let's hope this works." Paige said as she began ladling the smoking blue liquid into vials. Piper looked at her children through the smoke. "It will."
