Piper looked at her sisters and Billie whom she also thought of as a sister. Seeing the sisters were all she had left in the world.
"I'm not sure wut I feel. Should I be scared or wut"
"This is starting 2 freak me out juss a little bit" Paige said
"Ooh Ooh she's moving! She's moving!"Phoebe pointed out 2 every1 while pointing at the now moving woman on the floor.
Piper got back and prepared 2 let off a few rounds if this unknown...THING attacked.
The visitor coughed and looked up 2 see the 4 women standing over her. She immediatly backed up n2 the wall beneath a window. She grabbed the blanket that was on her and covered her face. Seeing the sunlight hurt her eyes horribly. When the witches saw this they realized that their guest was more afraid of them than they were of her. Phoebe moved foreward and spoke softly 2 her. Telling her everything would be alright and they weren't going 2 hurt her.
"Phoebe? Wut are you doing?" Piper asked
"Were did you come from?" Phoebe asked As Phoebe got closer.
The visitor pushed against the wall harder. Phoebe stopped moving 2wards her and held out her hand
.
"Come on, no1 will hurt you"
"Pheebes, I don't think she understands"
She reached out 4 Phoebes hand,
"I think she does" Billie said
Piper turned 2ward her sister and said,
"Paige go get Leo"
"I'm right here" she heard a voice from behind her say. It was Leo. Standing at the top of the stairs watching the whole time.
"Leo you were suppossed 2 get the boys out of here"
"I did but Wyatt orbed himself and Chris out of the car and back 2 the manor. I found Wyatt in the kitchen by the door. like he was waiting 4 me"
"Where's Chris?" Piper said with much concern.
"He's in the playpen. Where did she come from?" he asked Looking around the basement 4 the hole.
They were all facing Leo when their visitor stood up. Leo looked at her and said,
"I think I'll go get her some clothes 2 put on. He went back up stairs an dcame back shortly with some sweat pants and a tshirt. When he got back he noticed Wyatt was still standing by the door looking in its direction. Not looking down in the basement but at the door opening.
"Wyatt wut are you doing?"
Wyatt orbed away. Leo went n2 the day room where he had left Chris. Wyatt was there in the playpen with his brother. Leo felt a sigh of relief pass over him when he saw his sond 2gether. At least he knew that Wyatt hadn't left the manor. He went over 2 them and told Wyatt 2 stay put with his brother. He headed back n2 the kitchen 2 go down n2 the basement. He hurried down the stairs and handed the clothes 2 Billie who was closest 2 him. Billie then handed the clothes 2 Phoebe who was sitting very close 2 the naked woman. Phoebe showed the clothes 2 the woman and asked if she needed help putting the clothes on. She juss looked at Phoebe...confused as if she didn't understand. But she did. At least she knew she did but still allowed Phoebe 2 put the shirt on her.
1st the shirt, then the pants. It was like she was dressing 1 of her nephews except the person she was dressing was afraid of her.
Phoebe watched as the visitor stood up and instead of letting Phoebe finish dressing her, she finished herself.
Phoebe held out her hand again and this time she took Phoebe's hand. She walked past the others and watched them. Watching them as if they would attack. It seemed she only trusted Phoebe. Phoebe led her upstairs and n2 the kitchen where the visitor stepped on a piece of glass with her bare feet. It didn't seem 2 phase her she juss kept walking and looking at the 4 behind her. No1 else noticed really that she had stepped n2 glass until Paige saw the blood.
"Phoebe?"
Phoebe turned 2 look at Paige while still leading the girl
"She stepped in glass"
every1 looked at the floor and noticed little specs of blood. Phoebe sat the girl down and took her foot n2 her hands while Leo the last of the line grabbed the Med Kit from under the sink.
"Here" he passed the kit 2 Phoebe. "She seems 2 like you."
"Wait a minute" Paige said "I can heal her or did you 4get I'm part whitelighter"
" Paige she may not let you get close enough 2 heal her" Leo said
"Well if Phoebe talks 2 her she may let me"
They all looked at Phoebe who had already began pulling glass from her foot.
"My name is Phoebe and these are my sisters Paige and Piper. Thats Pipers Husband Leo and that's Billie. She family too.
Hearing this made Billie smile. She had heard the sisters and Leo refer 2 her as family many times b4 and everytime she heard it it made her smile.
"Paige is gonna help me with your foot becus its bleeding very badly and she can help you better than I can" she said all this while looking the girl square in the eyes. She looked back at Phoebe and smiled a childlike innocent smile. Her smile alone let every1 know that she understood. Paige approached while still making eye contact and placed her hands over the girls feet 2 heal them. Paiges hands began 2 glow as the healing process took hold of the girls feet. In no time flat Paige had healed her. Leo suggested that Paige orb the 2 n2 the living room the was already glass n obstacle free. She did so b4 Phoebe could talk 2 the girl and tell her wut was 2 happen.
Phoebe, Paige and the girl were all seated on the couch in the livingroom when the others got there. Phoebe turned 2 her sisters and spoke.
"So wut do we do with her? Apparently she can't be a demon she's afraid of us"
"Phoebe all demons are afraid of us or their juss special ed students who don't kno any better" piper said can't believing they have another problem on their hands. Saying this made the girl tilt her head and look at Piper with confusion and disbelief.
"Piper!" Paige yelled
"Wut? That has 2 be their problem. I wouldn't go up against us even if I didn't have all my good sense. We're the CHARMED ONES 4 Christ sake" when hearing this the girl began 2 speak.
"Your the Charmed Ones? Which generation?" she asked waiting 4 an answer. All the while every1 was surprised 2 find out their guest spoke perfect and proper english. "You can talk?" billie asked
"Of course I can. I juss didn't say anything because I didn't kno who you were. And I couldn't at the time. Over 300 years in stasis will leave your motor and verbal functions fried"
"Alright who are you? And how'd you get in our basement?" Piper asked
"My name is Phoenix" she replied "I've been asleep a long time"
"I've heard of you" Leo replied not believing wut he saw b4 him "Asleep, wut do you mean?" he continued 2 say
"I mean I've been asleep...waiting 4 you. Well them." She looked up at all 4 women not knowing who wus who. "There's only suppossed 2 be 3 of you. Wut generation is this? She asked with a look of pure confusion.
"Wut do you mean hun?" Phoebe asked Thats when Leo chimed in.
"This is the 1st generation of Charmed ones. This is Billie, she's another powerful witch" he said this while holding Billie by the shoulders and introducing her 2 the person they now knew as Phoenix.
"Leo do you know something about this?" Piper asked her husband impatiently awaiting an answer.
" I know that Phoenix is suppossed 2 be a myth."
"Leo after 8 years we've learned there's no such things as myths" Piper said 2 him with sarcasm.
"Yeh I know but Phoenix has been magics best kept secret on both sides. No1 dares speak of her 4 fear of her coming back. 2 speak of her is strictly forbidden. Good magic tells her 2 be the most evil entity ever"
"Hey man I am not evil!" she jumps up and yells at Leo and around the room.
Every1 looks at her and then back at Leo
"Let me finish. Your also known as the destroyer of all evil. You kill those of dark magic 4 fun"
"Well that part is true" she smiles and takes her seat back up. Paige rolls her eyes and says,
"Aren't we the cocky 1"
"Look I wasn't suppossed 2 be awaken until the Charmed ones were 2gether. Don't tell me your juss coming n2 your powers. Please don't tell me your JUSS NOW coming n2 your powers"
she said more like begging 2 god than asking a question.
"8 years honey, and we thought we were done with demons"
"I'm not a demon!" she yelled again this time at Piper.
"And other magical beings" Pipercontinued looking aggrevated.
Wondering who this chick thought she wus talkn 2. She wus Piper Halliwell. The baddest demon ass kickn witch around. She wasn't gonna have some1 come n2 her home and mess it up 4 her and her family.
"So you kno how 2 use your powers? Gud your gonna need them 2 take on the source"
"Been there done that took 2 of em out" Paige said unenthused. Not believing this person juss found out about this. Even though she not even an hour ago came out of watery grave.
"2 sources? How? When?" the look of confusion and disbelief has yet 2 leave her face.
"Years ago" Billie responded "they took out the triad twice 2"
"Wut? Oh no, something is seriously wrong here"
"Somethings wrong with us taking out the source and the triad?" Piper asks
"No not that. If you've been battling demons 4 8 years I shoulda been awake as soon as the power of 3 united. Where's your whitelighter?" the girls looked at Leo with eyebrows raised.
"Are you their whitelighter? She asked. Now standing and headed 2wards Leo.
Leo smiled, "Well I wus but I'm mortal now"
"Yes and my babies daddy" Piper said proudly.
Phoenix chuckles, "your kidding right? You can't be. Its against the rules"
"Oh with the rules and wutnot again. Listen the elders and the charmed ones don't get along so well these days" Piper says
"I gotta get up there. Things have seriously gone awry since I've been gone..." She stops herself in mid sentence. "Wait... If your juss another witch and you 3 are the charmed ones. How did you heal?" she asks Paige with wide eyes and serious disbelief.
She looks back at the others and drops her head n2 her hands and plops back down on2 the couch next 2 Phoebe.
"Oh no no no no no no no no no! This is not happening! This can't be happening!" she looks up at the crowd again.
"Are all of you part witch part whitelighter?" "No juss me" Paige says while raising her hand with a half smile on.
"You kno this is probably why I juss woke up. All 3 of you were suppossed 2 be human witches born of a powerful line. You destroyed the prophecy..."
She stops talking due 2 a jingling in her head. "Their calling me. Now they wanna call me!" Leo looks up and replies, "Me 2"
Piper looks at her husband
"WUT! Wut do you mean their calling you 2? Your mortal Leo you shouldn't hear that. Not that"
"I thought you were mortal"
"I am, but I heard them. I know their ring. Paige?"
"Yeh their in my ears 2"
"Well lets go I need 2 find out somethings. I need 2 find out a lot of things. I can't orb yet so uh.."
She points at Paige already 4getting her name. Paige announces herself once again. "Paige! my name is Paige"
"Yeh right, lets go...Paige" Paige takes hold of her hand b4 they can go anywhere she stops her and tells Leo 2 get his butt in motion.
"Lets go babies daddy. If you can hear the call they want you 2" All 3 orb out.
"Not again! I am not loosing my husband 2 those slave drivers again. How many times does that make it?" she asks the only 1 who really knows...herself.
"1 minute she's quiet and naked and now she's giving orders" Piper heads n2 the kitchen 2 clean while she waits 4 them 2 return. Still ranting about the elders, and now the new problem...Phoenix.
Phoebe and Billie are close in tow.
"I don't understand" Piper says "How did Leo hear the call? He's human now"
"I don't know about you 2 but, I'm more concerned about who she is and why she came out of a hole where the Nexus wus"
Phoebe says grabbing a broom and starting 2 sweep.
"I can check the book if you like" Billie says while picking up the dishes and broken glass off the counters.
None of them have yet 2 notice that the blood that tracked from the basement door 2 kitchen table is now gone. Vanished...gone like the hole in the basement floor.
While with the elders Phoenix communs and learns of all that she has missed ever since the birth of the sisters. Including wut happend with Leo and Piper, Phoebe, and Paige. And even Billie and Christie...and of course they had 2 tell her about Prue.
She finds out the reason she didn't wake on time is bcus Penny Halliwell binded the 3s power at a young age. Had she not then Phoenix would have been their whitelighter, their guide and they would have been as powerful as she wus. Now she must teach them 2 use their powers 2 their full potential.
And while doing so. Not let them know who she really is. They remind her that she has seen them b4. And where she's seen them. And why she became wut wus known as the Nexus. Why the Halliwell line has always lived in the manor. They were her protectors while she slept. And when she awakend she wus 2 become theirs. But now she has more than the power of 3 2 protect. She has her secrets.
Leo and Paige looked on as she began yelling at the elders and watching this made them hide their smiles. 2 actually see some1 besides Piper give it 2 them wus amazing and unbelievable. She must have been a very powerful whitelighter.
"I already knew about Penny binding their powers. I'm connected 2 the Halliwell line... Or did you 4get that?
After hearing this Paige and Leo looked at each other wondering wut the hell wus going on. Wut wus she talking about, being connected 2 the Halliwell line?
"Wut do mean, connected?" Leo finally asks
"Yeh, how are you connected 2 the Halliwell line." Paige asked
She turned 2wards the 2 and waved her hand across the air. B4 they knew it they were back at the manor and Phoenix wus nowhere 2 be seen.
"Well it looks like she got her powers back" she could hear Piper still ranting in the kitchen, so they headed in that direction.
"Its about time you guys are back!" Phoebe yelled "Leo your wife is driving us crazy."
Paige and Leo begin filling the others in about their new friend. How she seemed 2 have struck fear in the hearts of the elders.
"My kinda girl" Phoebe said with a smile
"Ya know, I think I was wrong about her. I'm starting 2 like her already." Piper said also with a smile at the fact that some1 besides upper level demons scare those guys.
After talking all night about wut wus 2 happen next every1 decided 2 bunker down at the manor 4 the nite.
October 14th 6am Phoebes asleep on the couch she wakes up 2 see a woman sitting on the chair across from her staring at her with beautiful hazel green eyes.
Wearing all black and a ponytail. Phoebe recognized her as Phoenix all cleaned up.
"Good morning" she said with a smile
"I've always hated mornings, but I guess this 1 can be considered a good 1" Phoenix replied
"Where have you been all night"
"I had somewhat of a staff meeting with the elders"
"Oh. And how did that go"
"They never shutup" they both share a laugh She looks at Phoebe and asks,
"Are you hungry? Cus I'm starving. They don't have a McDonalds up there." She smiles Phoebe smiles back with a small laugh and answers,
"Yeh I think caould eat"
"Good breakfast is on the table"
"Pipers up, why didn't she wake me"
"She's not yet. I thought I'd put myself 2 work"
"You didn't have 2 do that"
"I wanted 2. Especially after the mess I've made yesterday? I think Piper would be a little appreciative that she didn't have 2 cook 2day"
They heard footsteps coming down the stairs. Phoebe couldn't believe her eyes when she saw not 1 not 2 but 6identical clonesof Phoenix walk down the stairs and right up 2 them. They walked up 2 Phoenix and disappeared n2 her in a ghost like manner.
"1 for every person in the manor"
"Wut?"
"I haven't been able 2 connect with you or your sisters while I was in stasis. So when I came in this morning I sent a clone of myself 2 each of you 2 learn about you, while you slept. It was the only way that I could...catch up on wut I've missed since you were children"
"You could've juss asked" Phoebe says. "It would have taken 2 long"
4 a moment Phoebe felt violated, but realized after everything Paige and Leo had told her from wut little they had found out about her, that she was right. She DID need 2 know everything about them and fast.
"So you think demons are gonna start attacking again"
"No I don't think so. Not yet anyways, but hey, you never know. Better safe then sorry...right"
"Yeh... right"
"Why you in a rush 2 fight" she puts her fists up and playfully throws some punches at Phoebe.
"Kick a little demon ass? Come on put em up, put em up. I may let you get a hit in there even" she says in snagglepusses voice.
They crack up laughing. They hear Piper say, "I see some1s getting along well"
"Morning honey" Phoebe says 2 her sister then added more morning greetings 2 the line of people coming down the stairs. Phoenix points 2 the dinning table. "Breakfast is on the table and mores in the kitchen"
"WoW. Now thats a spread" Piper says while sweeping her long brown hair from her face.
"Well if you'll excuse me I have 2 go"
"Already?" Piper asked
"Go, go where?" Phoebe asked not realizing she asked as if she would never see her again.
Everytime she looked at Phoenix she remembered the premonition she shared with her sisters.
"Well if I'm gonna be your new whitelighter" she says this while holding her fingers up in the quote, unquote way.
"I'm gonna have 2 make sure that there are nomore demons looking 2 make a quick come up off you ladies"
"You'd think they woulda learned by now" Paige says stuffing her mouth with a bagel.
"Well you got the look down. I thought angels liked light colors" Piper says about the all black on black ensamble Phoenix was wearing.
"That's the point. And I happen 2 like black. Not 2 mention I'm no angel" she smiles a wide smile at Piper that she can't help but 2 smile back.
Leo comes downstairs carrying both of his sons making weird noises at Chris. Piper turns her smile 2 the 3 coming 2wards them.
Both boys turn 2 from Leo and look at Phoenix. Chris outstretches his hands 2 her as if wanting 2 be held. She cocks her head 2 the side and raises an eyebrow at him.
"Wuts he doing?" she asks "He wants you 2 hold him?" Leo says in a questionable way.
"Why"
"Good question." Piper says She looks at Piper
"Not... that its a... a bad thing. Its just... He..."
"He doesn't usually take easily 2 people" Leo finishes her sentence.
She looks back at Chris and Chris is still watching her trying 2 reach her. He starts whinning and reaching 4 her.
"Well you gonna pick him up or you gonna let him cry?" Piper with a smile on her face says Phoenix reaches 4 Chris and holds him at arms length. Looking at him strange. He starts screaming.
"Your holding him wrong" Billie says "you gotta hold him close" she comes over and pushes Chris properly n2 her arms. He stops crying and looks at Phoenix.
Phoenix looks awfully nervous holding him. You can almost hear her heart beating thru her chest. Wyatt begins wiggling free, arms stretched out 2ward her. Leo hands him over and she takes him knowing if she doesn't, it'll be a Chris segment again. Every1 is watching, wondering, why have the boys taken 2 this person whom they've only seen 4 the 1st time 2day. At this moment the chandelier begans 2 shake and glow a weird blue color. The samething it did b4 when Prue, Piper, and Phoebe became the Charmed Ones. And again when Paige came n2 their lives.
The 3 begin 2 glow at the sametime.
"Whoa, wut the hell is goin on? Leo get the boys"
Piper and Leo move 4ward 2 grab the boys only 2 be knocked down n2 those close 2 them. The glowing stops
"Wut just happend?" Phoenix asks breathing heavy and scared. Looking 2 the boys 4 an answer. The boys smile at her, Piper and Leo grab the boys. Giving them a once over.
"They seem fine" Leo says still checking Wyatt whom he was holding. "You okay buddy"
"Yeh!" Wyatt says excited and smiling at his dad.
They look at Phoenix. "Wut juss happend"
"Calm down were just as confused as you are" Phoebe says "Thats wut happend when the 3 of you became the Charmed Ones" Leo said looking 2wards the chandelier. Then back at Phoenix. Her eyes openend wide, her chest heaved 4ward as a deep breath entered her body. She was surprised...she was in shock.
Being a Charmed One wasn't suppossed 2 happen 2 her. That was only bestowed on the Halliwell line which she wasn't apart of. Maybe that's not wut it ment, maybe it ment something else. She wus suppossed 2 be the Charmed Ones guardian. Not 1 of them.
She paced back and forth in the livingroom in front of the couch where Phoebe sat. "Will you stop doing that! Your making me nervous"
"Is it hot in here, cus I'm hot"
She removes her long black coat.
"Its hot in here." She start rolling up her sleeves.
Phoebe rolls her eyes, stands up and catches Phoenix and pulls her down 2 the couch on her next rounds of paces.
"Paige went 2 see the elders 2 find out wut that was and wuts going on"
"When is she gonna get back? Maybe I should juss go up there myself" she says with panic in her voice.
"You can't orb yet, you tried already remember?" she looks at Phoebe with a look that ment she didn't wanna hear it.
"Even if you could, your so nervous right now you'd probly end up over the dead sea somewhere." She exhaled and looked at Phoebe again. She was right. Who knows wut might have happend if she tried using any of her powers right now. She slumped down n2 the couch clutching a pillow. Looking miserable.
Phoebe felt sorry 4 her and worried at the same time. Even more so she was worried about her nephews.
Piper and Leo are in the kitchen cleaning up after the breakfast dishes and all the un eaten food.
"Leo wut the hell happend in there? Is she a demon?
"She's not a demon Piper. She's a guardian. The elders wouldn't have called her up there yesterday if she was a demon"
"We don't know that"
"Yes we do"
"No we DON'T"
He pulls Piper close.
"Its gonna be okay." He rubs her back 2 comfort her. "Billie took the boys out and Paige is finding out all she can from them right now"
"You said its happend 2 us b4"
"Yeh with Prue and then again with Paige"
"Yeh! But when we met Paige Leo we didn't glow!" Piper said
"Yeh, but you 4get their all part whitelight and their 3 powerful witches" Leo said "What!" Piper said looking at him.
"We've seen 4 ourselves the power Chris and Wyatt have when they get older. The power Wyatt has now!"
"Are you my husband or an elder again"
"I'm being optimistic about this. Hoping that she's here 4 another reason. Maybe she"
Paige orbs in. "She's their whitelighter?" she says. "Well she is. Where is she"
"In the livingroom with Phoebe, lets go" Piper says and waves her hand 4 the other 2 2 follow her.
"Wut did they say" Leo asks The 2 occupants of the couch jump up waiting 2 hear wut they hope is good news.
"The usual...riddles. Wut they did say that I understood was seeing there were 4 Charmed Ones" she holds up 4 fingers "They didn't wake her up"
"So they knew about you from day 1?" Piper asked
"Only when my parents died and I orbed out of the car did they sense me and know who and wut I was"
"So they decided 2 leave her in a tomb? How nice of them" Piper says with a look on her face saying I told you they were no good.
"But I was their whitelighter all their lives" Leo said
"Yeh only bcus they didn't have powers. They didn't need her. The elders thought 2 just leave you as our whitelighter"
"Then the boys where born" Leo said
"Powerful witches" Piper said "The Charmed Ones are only female and come from our ancestrial line"
Phoenix sits back down and looks at the floor.
"Not anymore they aren't. The boys ARE Charmed" Paige said "So she's a Charmed One"
"No she's their guardian. But their connected now in some way"
"Wut kinda way Paige? Your starting 2 sound like them bcus now I'm confused"
Phoenix picks her head up from looking at the floor.
"I am Charmed. I always have been"
They all looked at her. Her voice began 2 crack. Now realizing she had 2 tell them a secret she promised she never would. A secret they both had took with her 2 her grave.
"But I was never suppossed 2 connect with any of you other than your guardian." "Wut do you mean?" Leo asked
"Leo let her talk" Phoebe said.
She looked nervous and antsy as she stood up in front of them.
"I'd been around...way b4 the Warren/Halliwell line. I wandered looking 4 others like me. I'd never found them. I'd found plenty of demons and covens. And then 1 day around 1660 I came across a coven in a colony in Virginia." Their eyes widend.
"I think you know the 1 I'm talking about, bcus you were there. I had decided 2 stop wandering. After all, I'd have all of eternity"
she was interrupted by Phoebe, she looked at Phoenix and said,
"You were there 10yrs b4 we got there"
"Yeh I was. I had finally gained the trust of the coven. I showed them that I was gud and I even took the witches oath. Bcus of how young I looked back then, they took me in. I had nowhere else 2 go. I was tired."
Every1 except Leo feels their faces remembering that while they are the most powerfull witches around...they still age.
"See I had known about my powers and I had learned how 2 use a lot of em, but the coven, they showed me so much more. They showed me how 2 use my powers 2 their full potential"
"How many powers do you have?" Phoebe asked green with envy. After all she was still missing a few that the council had taken.
"Phoebe!" Piper said giving her the evil eye Phoebe shruged.
"Its ok. You should know wut powers I posses," She turns and looks at Phoebe and says "But I lost count a long time ago just like I did with my age." She continues her story again.
"Anyway I showed them that I had powers like theirs, but I was stronger and I knew it... Only 1 of them knew how powerful I really was. Her name was Charlotte..."
"Charlotte Warren?" Piper asked
she swallows hard and continues.
"Yeh, and in return 4 keeping my secret and letting me stay with the coven...I-I gave her something that she couldn't have... A child"
Every1 in the room is speechless except 4 a few questions that really needed answers 2. They didn't even notice Billie come back in with Wyatt and Chris. She came in the room and asked wut she had missed when she was rudely shushed by every1. She gave a look as 2 saying Sorry and began 2 listen where Phoenix had left off.
"But how? Your female" Piper says.
"The seer did it 2 Phoebe" she countered looking at Phoebe
"Yeh but Cole was the father" Paige said
"Only bcus he had bcome the source, the seer wanted Cole and Phoebes power and birthright in the child that was ultimately hers. Even without Cole the child would have still grown"
"The thing is I didn't mean 2 give Charlotte a child. Charlotte and I were very close. She was the mother I never had... And I was the child she couldn't have.
Here husband had left and bore a child with another woman, when he was told she couldn't conceive."
She pauses, b4 telling them more.
"I had the power to heal. Anytime I'd get hurt I'd justheal myself."
Another pause, her voice started 2 crack again. She was becoming unhinged.
"I thought...I thought if I healed her she could have kids, she'd get her life back and everything would be better 4 her."
Her eyes start 2 well up as she fights back tears. Thinking about the only person who had ever been a mother 2 her. The only person who ever loved her.
"I knew I would eventually have 2 leave. She needed some1."
Tears fall from her eyes heavily. The memories were 2 much. Even 4 a powerful being like herself.
"I didn't wanna leave her alone. 2 leave her with no1? She didn't deserve that. She was family and you never leave family like that. You never leave them alone"
She said this with so much conviction, and so much pain that the sisters and Billie dropped their heads and fought back the tears in their own eyes. Knowing exactly wut she ment. They 2 had family who had left them...alone.
"I kno the feeling" Piper being the 1st 2 say. She was thinking of Prue. The others nodded in agreeance.
"Well why didn't you help when she was kidnapped?" Phoebe asked curiously
"I couldn't. I was dead by then"
"I thought you couldn't die"
"No I can die. I juss can't be destroyed. 1st they hung me, then they burned me at the stake"
Hearing this made even Leo cringe.
"4 wut?" Paige said "4 being a witch wut else"
"They had 2 kill you twice? That is some serious overkill"
"I guess you can say I deserved it. I was warned by Eva 2 never use my powers out in the open. I didn't think any1 was around and some1 saw me multiply and blink. I was moving water from the lake 2 the cave and they grabbed me. And with me being an outsider they wanted nothing more then (country voice) a good ol' fashion hangin."
This made every1 smile and laugh.
"Been there" Piper and Phoebe said in unison raising their hands. They smiled at each other and laughed again. Phoenix smiled.
"I was killed October 13,1670, I was ressurrected October 31,1670 b4 midnight at the same time Melinda Warren was born 2 the world and 2 magic. I got 2 see Melinda, Charlotte, and the coven 1 time b4 I left. I WAS suppossed 2 be dead. Bcus of that the whole using your powers 4 personal gain thing came n2 effect."
They frowned at her. Now they knew who caused that problem.
"There's so much about me you girls don't know yet. And it'll take me a lifetime 2 tell you...your lifetime anyway" she smiles
"Then that makes us family" Paige says
"And you'll always have a family here with us" Phoebe says holding Phoenix' hand "Thats right" Piper stands up and hugs her new found family member,
"welcome home" they all join in on the group hug.
Leo loosend his grip of the group and looked at her.
"Wait we still don't know why you and the boys glowed"
2 elders have orbed in.
"We do. It was her reinstatement n2 the Warren/Halliwell family" 1 of them said "Ladies I'd like you 2 meet Phoenix Warren. She is of course the proprietor of magic and the Warren/Halliwell line." The other said
"Wut do you mean proprieter?" Phoebe asks
"All magic, good and evil comes from her."
"But the Halliwell's magic is by far the most powerful. Especially now that your reunited"
"You mean the Warren/Halliwell line. She is a Warren" Leo corrects them.
"And we are Halliwells" Phoebe says
"And were all powerful dammit!" Piper says

"Will I get 2 meet the others?"

"Don't worry I'll be back. I'm not leaving you again. I promise." She smiles at them as they orb away.
"She'll be back" Leo says as he watches tears roll down their faces.
