Chapter 12 Exposed.
The group of teens and Travis are still looking through the Merriwick Book of Shadows and the Sommers Book of Shadows. While searching through the two Books of Shadows whatever they find interesting they write down on a piece of paper. The group soon discover they have quite a lot written down.
"Guys, maybe we need something to keep all these notes on that doesn't take up too much space," Rose suggested.
"Like a whiteboard or something?" Travis asks.
"Something like that yes." Rose answers. Travis nods and casts a basic conjuring spell. That makes an average size mobile magnetic landscape whiteboard. Henry Jr and Rose start hanging their pieces of paper that are full of notes.
"All, we've figured out right now is the names of all the Rings of Power. And the name of the witch bloodlines chosen to protect the rings." Henry Jr says.
"Merriwick, Sommers, Harper and Rider and Mills." Rose reads out the five with bloodline.
"But they are six rings so what happened to the sixth bloodline." Henry Jr points out.
"That's something we have to figure out. Right now we need to locate the three known other bloodlines. And talk to them there has to be a reason why Nate, Travis and Ethan weren't aware of the Rings of Power." Rose replied.
"Well from one of those letters off David to his grandmother Gail. All it really mentioned is that keeper of the rings is chosen by age oldest to youngest. David's mother was supposed to be the keeper before David. But she passed before she had the chance." Henry Jr said.
"I know you're hacking days are done. But if you can please run their names. Birth records etc. While I'll work on a spell to locate them." Rose requests.
"Yes, the quicker we solve the mystery of the Rings of Power the better." Henry Jr responds.
Sam, Wyatt and Chris appear inside the Sommers Bar and Grill in a swirl of orbs of light. The teenagers and Travis's attention immediately turns to Sam, Wyatt and Chris. The teens run over to Sam and the fallen Halliwell brothers.
"Wyatt, Chris." Henry Jr shouts. While Sam focusing on healing the fallen brothers. The demon that attacked Wyatt and Chris in their hotel room shimmers into the Sommers Bar and Grill with other demons.
"What is this meet the family," Travis spoke annoyed. Travis isn't particularly fond of the Halliwell family lately. But it doesn't mean he wants two of them dead in his bar.
"Just kill them all." The demon who attacked Wyatt and Chris snapped. Throwing a lightning bolt at Sam. Before anyone else could process it. Ethan quickly makes a gesture with his hand quickly conjuring a powerful wall of wind strong enough to deflect the lightning bolt back at the demon who threw it vanquishing him. The teens and Travis quickly find themselves engaging in a fight against the demons. While Sam focuses on healing Wyatt and Chris. Henry Jr with concentration managed to fire multiple spikes of ice through demons chest vanquishing them. Travis vanquishes demons with bolts of electricity. Rose redirects demons fireballs with her pyrokinesis power. Then finally Nathaniel uses a small spell to slow down the demons reaction ability allowing Ethan to use his aerokinesis pin some demons to the floor and limit their movement so the others could vanquish them! Once all the demons have been vanquished the teens and Travis sigh in relief and so does Sam. Sam fully heals Wyatt and Chris who saw the fight! Sam gets to his feet as do Wyatt and Chris.
"Wait what's going on here Jr?" Wyatt asks expecting an answer.
"Kind of let the cat out of the bag here," Rose commented.
"Gee, you think." Henry Jr responds.
"Jr, you have powers when did this happen? Was it a curse and how did you keep this from us?" Wyatt asked.
"A CURSE," Nathaniel snaps.
"And now you know why I didn't and still don't want my family here." Henry Jr mumbles.
"As much as I love reunions with the family that treated my brother like a piece of trash. I have a strict policy only one Halliwell in my bar at one time. So, blondie and green eyes please leave." Travis said only using the word 'please' as a false term of politeness.
"Jr, maybe we should take this outside," Chris suggested. Ethan gently reaches for one of Henry Jr's hands. Henry Jr notices but no one else does.
"Actually no anything you have to say you can say it here. After, all my friends aren't exactly strangers to magic." Henry Jr replies.
"Fine, when exactly did you get powers. What reckless thing did you do? And why didn't you tell us?" Wyatt questions.
"I got my powers not long after I got here. And second I didn't do anything reckless you guys naively thought that you could send me to another country for protection. And just assume magic wouldn't follow. Well guess what it did I was gifted with the powers of being a witch. And as for my reason for not telling you is that I knew that you guys wouldn't listen. You would just assume I went out to find magic and I decided to get powers for attention." Henry Jr shouted.
"It's been proven mortals can't handle powers nine times out of ten the magic poisons them pollutes their minds. It happened to Dr Williamson, he accidentally got injected with my mom's blood, Aunt Phoebe and Aunt Prue and went power crazy." Wyatt points out. Rose just wanted to end the discussion decides to speak up.
"Enough, now I don't really know you two. But first things first we know Henry. Henry is smart, he's kind and compassionate. And here a history lesson for you during the magic switch where mortals gained magic and witches or any other magical beings lost their magic. Some mortals used the magic they gained for good reasons and didn't abuse it. And Henry hasn't abused magic so far actually he used it for good. And is still using magic for good. Henry is apart of our coven and we have some business we need to do. So please leave after, all we don't need you two messing things up. And if you tell anyone I'll turn you into toads. And considering your family has very little magic right now. I'm pretty sure that's a risk you don't want to take." Rose points out to Wyatt and Chris. While threatening them at the same time.
"Mr, erm Henry's grandpa sir can you orb them out, please." Nathaniel requested. Sam nods before orbing himself, Chris and Wyatt out.
