A/N: Thanks to all the reviewers. You guys (girls) are the reason I am writing this next chapter. You all give me motivation to write and go on. This chapter is just coming off the top of my head so I do apologize if it's not the best…

Fanmania: Those names took about a half an hour to come up with… But I like them and I think that they were catchy. There's a little joke here about one of the names coming up in this chapter…

ColePhoebe4eva: Yup, you were right on the mark! I hope you like the following chapter. I'm trying to find a way to fit Cole into the story. I'm thinking possibly having the elders re-make him human for some underworld information and Phoebe falls out of love with Jason and back in love with Cole… I don't know… Just an Idea…

Powers:

Patience: Orbing, telekinetic orbing, psychokinetic orbing, molecular manipulation (like Piper) and object manipulation (ability to change forms of objects to other objects.)

Phaith: Orbing, telekinetic orbing, psychokinetic orbing, superspeed, telepathy.

Prudence: Telekinesis, astral projection, premonitions, levitation, (a new power comes in this chapter due to some important news. I don't want to give it away!)

All three children have a natural telepathy with each other. They can hear each other's thoughts and communicate with each other. It's not important now but will be later on in the story.

Chapter 14: Household Mania

"Should we celebrate their half-birthdays?" Paige asked, confused. She and Kyle hadn't really done anything momentous with Phaith in the six months since her birth.

"Well, if not half-birthday, then their wiccaning," said a voice that came out of thin air. A split second later, Grams appeared in her traditional white orbs.

"Must we go through this-" Piper started.

"Oh, Piper. I thought that you learned your lesson the last time. You can't deny these children their ancestry! This is what they were meant to become. They will carry on your legacy."

"Okay Grams, no need for the long speech. You've convinced me," Piper sighed. "Let's just do it now, that way we can help them learn to develop their powers. He younger the better, right?" Piper wasn't very convinced.

Phoebe smiled as Little Prue sat in her lap, happily giggling to herself. Prue turned her big blue eyes on her great-grams and smiled. "Ga!" she cried.

Phaith and Patience sat in a small playpen playing tug-of-war with a small teddy bear.

"Mi!" Phaith cried.

"No!" Patience yelled.

"Girls," Piper said softly as she picked up the two arguing babies. She handed Phaith to Paige and sat down with Patience.

"Alright," Phoebe said, finally. "We'll go get ready and have the girls in the attic in a half an hour."

"Fine," Grams agreed. "Until then, I'll just wait here."

"Oh joy," Piper muttered as she walked up the stairs, meeting Leo halfway up.

"I heard that!" Grams called.

She handed Patience to Leo and smiled. "How would you like to give our daughter a bath while I get ready for her wiccaning?"

"Wiccaning?" he asked. "Since when-?"

"Since Grams showed up and said that the new Power of Three is to get their wiccaning. You know, just saying that makes me feel like I'm not needed anymore. I feel like I'm old." She sighed and stared at the floor.

Leo placed his hand on the side of her face and brought it up to match his. "You should be happy that you've brought in the next line of the most powerful witches on this planet. And they could even more powerful that you and Phoebe and Paige as long as you give them the knowledge they need. You were meant to pass this on. And with Wyatt and Chris with them, they'll be a force to be reckoned with. And we've seen the way both of those boys have turned out. They are pure good and live with it in their hearts. And the sooner that they get their powers; the sooner we can teach them right from wrong. You know that as long as we raise these girls right, we have nothing to worry about. We've seen the way Wyatt and Chris turn out. The fact that Chris died for his family says something. With them as role models, Patience, Phaith and Little Prue are going to be pure good. And-" Leo stopped as Patience reached up and began to wrap her fingers around his bottom lip. "Hey sweetie," he said as he lifted her up and kissed her cheek. "You're daddy's little girl aren't you?" Patience giggled as Leo turned back to Piper. "I'm just saying-"

"I know that you're just saying. I get it."

Paige and Phoebe had been standing at the bottom of the stairs and were now staring up at Piper and Leo, open-mouthed and flabbergasted. Paige spoke first. "Bit wordy, isn't he?"

Piper nodded. "You know our Leo. Never shuts up when he needs to." She stopped at the icy look she received from her husband and smiled. "But you know that we still love you." She pecked him on the cheek. "Now, that bath?"

Leo's look of brief displacement vanished as his daughter mimicked her mother and tried to kiss him on the cheek. "Sure." He turned up the stairs. "Are we ready for a bath?" he asked in a childish voice. Patience made a soft cooing noise as her and Leo disappeared up the steps.

Piper's face softened. "I remember the first time we talked about having kids. That was the same week you fell in love with that dumb flutist and our house was like a kid magnet," she said looking at Paige.

"Well, it wasn't my fault that he was really Allen O' Dale now was it?" she shot back.

"Normally you have that ability of sniffing out bad magical things."

"Well, that night, my bad magic radar was turned off."

"Hey kids, let's not get into a fight right before out daughter's wiccanings," Phoebe said.

"Fine," Piper and Paige said at the same time.

Phoebe turned and walked into the living room where Jason sat with Little Prue on his lap. Something had come over her in the past few months and she hadn't quite figured it out. Almost like her and Jason weren't in love anymore. She smiled at the both of them. As much as she wanted to tell Jason, she couldn't break his heart like that. He loved their daughter and possibly her too. But whatever was there long ago was now gone. Was it the appearance of Cole that was doing this to her? Did she really want Cole to come back and be with her and her daughter? A small voice in the back of her head was screaming "YES!"

She sat next to Jason and looked at her daughter's cute, pudgy, face and smiled. "After Leo's done, can you give Little Prue a bath?" she asked. "I have to get ready for the ceremony."

Jason nodded. "No problem," he replied. He stood up as Leo came down the stairs with Patience in his arms. Jason picked up Little Prue and headed up the stairs. Phoebe could tell that something was bothering him but didn't want to get him worked up.

When Paige walked into the kitchen, Kyle had already begun to bathe Phaith in the large kitchen sink. He looked at Paige as she entered. "This means a lot to you doesn't it?"

Paige closed her eyes as she nodded, silently. She opened them again and looked at him lovingly. "It's a part of who they are and who they're meant to become."

"It's a part of you," Kyle finished. Again, Paige nodded. "You know, I'm glad that at least I know about all of this magic stuff and how it works."

"Well, it's a part of you now. You're a Whitelighter and our daughter will be too. Well, half anyway."

Kyle smiled. "And I wouldn't trade it in for anything," he said as he kissed Paige lightly on the lips.

"I'm going to go on upstairs and get ready. I think Grams said that we'll start in about twenty minutes."

"Can do."

Paige walked up the stairs and saw Phoebe and Piper busily scrambling to get ready. She calmly went into her room and began to get dressed for the event.

After about half an hour, the wiccanings had been preformed and everyone was sitting in the living room. Suddenly, there was a flash of blue and white lights as an Elder orbed in. He turned to Phoebe. "Ms. Halliwell, I've come to give you some news."

"Oh no," Phoebe sighed.

"Oh, it's nothing bad, I assure you. It's actually quite an honor for me to do this. I have come to inform you that your daughter, Prudence Kristen Halliwell has been announced as the next Waterbearer. As one of the five Elementals, she now has a spot in the Night of Aoluoes (however you're supposed to spell that!). I hope that you take this as a joyous momentum but do not take it lightly at the same time." And with those words, the Elder orbed out.

"Wow," everyone that had the ability to talk, said at the same time.

A/N: Okay everyone, how was that? The Waterbearer thing was something I just thought of the other day… I hope you like it… it makes it a little more interesting…
