Hi this is my first Charmed fic haven't decided if it's a one-shot or not. Probably is. This is loosely based on that episode Once upon a

Time. Slightly AU, and in the future.

Chris and his younger cousin, Persia, were alone in the manor, as everyone else was either at work, or fighting a new demon, or at magic school, and

the babysitter hadn't arrived yet. They were fighting their own battle; against the fairies Wyatt had angered the week before when he had captured

their prince, Thistle's son, Thorn.

"Okay, what have we got to avoid? Midnight's in two hours, so as long as we can get from here to Wyatt's room without being killed, we'll be fine."

Chris panted, having just run from the basement to the kitchen. Not much of a distance, but it is up a set of stairs.

The quarter witch glared at him. " We have to avoid 'tweens. Those are things like shadows, doors and windows. Remind me why we can't orb?"

Chris scowled. " Wyatt."

" I'm never playing dare with him again. Why did we play that game with him again?"

"Mind control spell. He dared us to say the half ling spell. Now we can't use our whitelighter powers, for a whole week. All I've got is telekinesis.

You?" Chris gasped, as he bolted into the hall and used his telekinesis to flick the light switch.

" Nothing I know of. I had healing, levitation and orbing. All whitelighter!" Persia yelled, as she joined her cousin.

She paled when she saw the stairs. " How come Aunt Phoebe's book never said anything about stairs being 'tweens? And why didn't our moms tell

us that little detail?"

Chris looked at the stairs and groaned.

"I don't know, but we're gonna yell at them later. HOW THE HELL ARE WE SUPPOSED TO GET UP THERE?"

Persia shrugged, and began to chant.

" Orbing powers, forced to flee,

Return now to aid me,

From here to there we must go,

But a safe way we do not know

Help us avoid the fairies wrath

Give us now, a safe path"

An elevator appeared in the wall.

The two cousins went in. The doors slammed shut and moved with speed comparable to the one Prue, Piper, and Phoebe went in when they were

trying to save Tom.

The two cousins were forced onto the ground, and when the elevator stopped theyran out to find… they were in Wyatt's room.

" Why didn't we think of using Spells earlier?" Persia pondered, after they set Thorn free.

" Personal gain?" Chris thought out loud.

Persia shrugged. Then screamed and grabbed Chris when her hand started glowing.

The red light shot out of her hand, and blew up Wyatt's favourite chest of drawers.

The two stared at it, looked at each other, and then ran back to the living room like bats out of hell.

When they got there, they collapsed on the sofa.

"You got a new power." Chris mused.

"And I can't tell anyone because we'd get into trouble. We were in Wyatt's room, and we used magic. If they find out, we're screwed." Persia

groaned.

"Why would we give you into trouble? The Elders made me watch the whole thing! You two were great." A voice said.

Persia threw herself at the owner of the voice.

"Daddy!" She cried.

" Uncle Kyle!" Chris yelled.

" Hey, how are my favourite nine year old nephew, and my favourite seven year old daughter?" Kyle Brody smiled.

The front door slammed, and they could hear Piper, Paige, Leo, Wyatt and Phoebe talking.

Kyle leaned over and whispered. "I've been in here the whole time."

The kids grinned.

"So have we." They whispered, before going to tell their moms that they had played, 'Rescue the Fairy Prince' with Kyle, just so they could see

Wyatt's face.
