Chapter Three
Is That Excalibur?
Paige was sat at a round table with a pentagram carved into the wood. She placed her hand on the top point of the star and watched as her sisters each placed one hand on each point. A hand came out of the shadows and rested it on the bottom point of the star. She and her sisters let out a scream of pain as electricity raced up and down the pentagram. A sinister laugh burst ran through the room, chilling Paige to the core. She let out a final scream before she and her sisters were turned to dust…
Paige woke up screaming, causing Kyle to fall out of bed. "Owwww!" He whined. Paige jumped out of bed, wrapping her dressing robe around her naked body.
"Kyle, I had the weirdest dream!" She told him frantically. "But I don't think it was a dream! It seemed so real! I think it was a premonition or something!" Kyle stared at his wife through bleary eyes.
"Paige, you don't get premonitions," He mumbled. "It was probably just a dream." He climbed back into bed and, before Paige could reply, he fell asleep, snoring loudly. Paige checked the time on her alarm clock. 3:06 AM! The youngest Charmed One groaned, rubbing her pretty brown eyes.
"Maybe he's right," She whispered and slid back under the lilac sheets.
OOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
The next morning, Piper was having the usual struggles to get her daughter dressed. "Payton Cassandra Halliwell, don't you even think about going back to bed! You are going to get dressed and have your breakfast now!" Piper said sternly. Payton stamped, dressed in purple pajamas and fluffy purple slippers, stamped her feet and yelled, "NO! Don't wanna get dressed!"
"Payton, you will do as you're told!" Piper replied, trying to not raise her voice. Payton plonked herself down on the floor and started screaming and banging her feet and fists on the carpet.
Piper let out an annoyed sigh, pushing her long brown hair out of her face. "Sweetie, please get dressed," She said desperately. Once again, Payton shook her head. Piper groaned. I think the Terrible Two's have started late for Payton, She thought.
Oo OOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
Meanwhile, Paige was up in the attic, flipping through the Book of Shadows. "There is nothing in this book!" She exclaimed, slamming it shut. "All I want is a spell to find out what the hell is going on with my dreams, but NO! It's obviously way too much to ask!"
"Anything I can help with?" Phoebe asked, leaning against the door frame. Paige let out a sigh of relief.
"God, yes!" She replied. "I need a spell that will tell me what my dreams mean." Phoebe grabbed a pen and paper pad from one of the shelves. "I'm your girl," Phoebe told her. "Okay…let me think…" She began to scribble frantically, stopping every so often to scribble out and change words. Eventually, she had the perfect spell.
Paige took the paper from her and read out, "For those who want their dreams revealed, open minds and secrets unsealed, show me now what this means, give me the reason for my dreams!"
Suddenly, a whirling tornado appeared in the middle of the attic to reveal a long glinting silver sword…stuck in a stone?
"What the hell?" Phoebe said breathlessly.
"Phoebe…why is Excalibur in our attic?" Paige demanded.
OOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOo
In the Underworld, the Oracle watched all of this in her crystal ball whilst Fleur peered impatiently over her shoulder.
"Well, this is certainly interesting," The Oracle said in her mystical voice. "It appears that Excalibur has chosen a new owner…a Charmed One."
"What do we do?" Fleur asked the brunette demon.
"We kill her," The Oracle replied and flared out.
A/N: Hope you liked it. Review please!
Next chapter: The Charmed Ones are taken to Camelot by 'Merlin' and Paige decides to play Queen Arthur for a while. Her sisters are more reluctant…especially when they find out that when Paige became the owner of Excalibur, they lost their powers!
Charmedelot will be up soon.
