1x07: The demon and the old witches

Mel was looking through the book when Parker and Pacey starred into the room.

Pacey: "In and out got it?"

Parker: Rolling her eyes, "Yeah I got it," They walked over to Mel, "Hey little Mel how you doing?"

Mel: "Okay, you guys need the book?"

Parker: "Yeah," Mel moved out of the way and Parker looked down at the page Mel was on, 'twice cursed,' Parker looks back to her cousin's pained filled blue eyes, "Ignore this stupid book, it's wrong half of the time,"

Pacey and a voice: "Parker!"

Parker groans as she saw behind her male cousin was Grams.

Mel: also seeing Grams, "Who's she?"

Grams: "Penny Halliwell,"

Parker: "Pain in our ass,"

Grams: "Paige you need to have more respect for me!"

Mel: "Paige? I thought your name was Parker, Parker,"

Patty: As she appeared right next to her mother, "It is, but Paige is her first name,"

Grams: "Should have been Phoebe or Prue then again Paige is sometimes worser than those two combine. Piper was the only angel,"

Patty: "We're Halliwells, I'm Patty,"

Mel: "Dead ones?"

Parker: Crossing her eyes over her chest, "That always come back to annoy us!"

Grams: "Paige,"

Pacey: Seeing that Parker was thinking about blowing up Grams, "Mom! Aunts that I love, come in here before Parker kills your GRAMS!"

Parker: "What happened to in and out dipshit?"

Pacey: "I thought of it better that you not kill Grams again,"

Parker: "Why not?"

Pacey: "Don't know I got the urge to keep Grams intact,"

Parker: "Why? It's not like she's not already dead!"

Grams: "PAIGE!"

Prue and the other sisters walk into the room.

Phoebe: "Oh and that's where my youngest daughter is. Funny seeing as I haven't seen her the whole day," Looks over to Prue, "She gets this from your son. He taught her not to call in,"

Prue: "Not the way I tell it,"

Piper: "Mel what are you doing in here honey?"

Mel: Looks down, "Looking at the book," She looks up to Piper's eyes, "I hope you don't mind,"

Paige: Seeing and knowing how Mel must feel, "We don't, and we wouldn't mind, it's yours too honey, just don't take it out of the house, we don't need another me incident,"

Piper: Chuckles remembering that memory. "I think she's more responsible that you were at her age Paige,"

Paige: "Hell I know it!"

Parker: "Mel we know how to share!" She moves the page that Mel was on, Mel shoots her a grateful glance, "So what brings the dead to our living attic?"

Grams: "Show more respect Paige, your worse than Henry!"

Paige: "Grams my son isn't bad, he's an angel!"

Nix: Orbs into the room dressed in her beige suit and her hair up, "Oh please mom don't lie to yourself that boy was hell growing up! Hell he was worse when he was near Linn Lex Hazel and Chris those four are hell on wheel even without the boy. More hell than B Wyatt and Damian," She let down her hair and glamoured into street clothes, she then walks over to Parker and wraps her arms around her cousin's shoulders. "So Paige when you going back to work?"

Parker: Her voice gets all unemotional and it makes her mother and aunts hell even Patty and Grams flinch. "If you want to stay alive you'll never call me that again!" She smiles sweetly to her cousin, "And NEVER!" Phoebe shoots her a look and she sighs, "Next week, mom is making me, I want to stay jobless and be like Pacey, I want to hunt demons every second but since I'm a Halliwell I'm stuck to be in both worlds,"

Pacey: "I'm not jobless, I just have an easy job, and on second thought so do you!" Because of the look she sent him that said 'do you want me to tell your mother what we're doing', "Well isn't next week when you start helping the cupids?"

Parker: She smiled liking that excuse, "You're right, mom I can't go do work,"

Phoebe: "The hell you can't!"

Parker: Rolling her eyes, "Fine!"

Mel: "Where do you work?"

Parker: "Newspaper, I'm a profession picture-taker!"

Prue: "Its photographer,"

Parker: "I like mine more,"

Mel: "Wait you're the photographer that never goes to work and I get stuck doing your job?"

Parker: "Most likely,"

Mel: "Oh no you're going to work I want to be able to write again!"

Parker: "Fine!" She looks over to Nix, "Heya Nix, where's Lexy?"

Nix: "With him, I'd say in NY or Nevada anywhere but here,"

Parker: "Always in states that start with N,"

Nix: Knowing full well what her cousin was doing, and hella annoyed because of it, "Go be a cupid somewhere else!"

Parker: "Fine," She looks over to Mel," "Heya Mel,"

Nix: "Mel run, now!"

Parker: She sends Nix a glare, "Shut up Phoebe-Phoenix! Or you're going to wish you didn't know me!"

Nix: Waving off Parker's threat as if it was no such threat but deep down she was a little apprehensive. Parker was not a good Halliwell to piss off, she did have that good old Halliwell temper, hence why she would always get into a fight with Grams, plus the woman put Parker in a category that made it hard as hell to do anything right something that made Parker a little uneasy while using magic around Grams, "No way am I letting her get stuck with you as a cousin, run Mel run,"

Pacey: Sighs almost annoyed, "Grams why are you here?"

Grams: Throwing him a concerned look, Parker glares at him, "What's wrong with you Andrew?"

Pacey: He looks back to Parker as is confused why she's looking at him like that, "Nothing Grams but I have other things to take care of!"

Parker's thoughts: "Pacey why don't you just leave,"

Pacey's Thoughts: "Can't leave without my twin,"

Parker's Thoughts: "Like that ever stopped you?"

Pacey's Thoughts: Looks back at her confused, "Park,"

Patty: Cutting off their conversion, "Well go take care of them, we only need to talk to Mel and I guess Piper or Leo maybe Chris and Wyatt,"

Mel: "Why would you need to talk to me? I don't even know you!"

Grams: "No but we now who you are,"

Patty: Knowing Piper was about to explode, "Welcome home Melinda Robin Halliwell,"

Mel: "I'm sorry?"

-x-x-x-
Things happen but we don't really know why,
Once more you tell those lies to me,
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty? (Honesty...)
Torn apart at the seams and my dreams turn to tears
I'm not feeling this situation.

Various shots of the city the last one stops to show the manor's attic. Underlined by the song: 'The Kill,' by 30 seconds to Mars.

Pacey: Looks between them and then back to Parker he grabs the book. "I'm going to go now, Parker coming along now?"

Parker: Looks over to a shocked as hell Mel, "I'll stay,"

Pacey: "Suit yourself, Nix can I have your help?"

Nix: "Sure anything for you coz as long as I'm not being covered in any slim," Pacey just laughs, "I wasn't kidding Andy,"

Pacey: "I can't hold any promises Phoebe,"

Both walked out of the attic. Piper turned to look at her mother and Grams. Mel just stood there confused about how they knew what they knew.

Piper: "Okay explain to me how you know about Mel,"

She looked anything but calm.

Grams: "We've always known who she was," She looks over to Mel, "I'm proud of you, good job with Alec,"

Mel: She turned another color, "How the do you?"

Patty: Smiles at her, "Know about Alec?" Mel nods, "Same way we know about Vince,"

Mel: Blushes, "I have no idea what you're talking about!"

Parker: Under her breathe, "Yup she's a Halliwell alright, none of us ever know when we have love, thank god I'm not like that!"

Patty: Looks at Parker for a second shaking her head, Parker smiles back to her not understanding, "Look Mel it does not matter, we're just glad you're safe again,"

Piper: "Wait are you telling me that you know where my daughter was all this time?"

Mel: Looks shocked she'd never seen Piper this angry, she turns to look at Parker, "Maybe we should,"

Parker: Hugs Mel, "Don't even think about it, Mel you're a Halliwell now, it's time to deal with pain in the ass named Grams,"

Grams: "THAT'S NOT FUNNY PAIGE!"

Paige shakes her head.

Prue: "Kinda was,"

Phoebe: "Very!"

Grams: "You two would say that!"

Piper: "HEY! I asked you something answer me now!"

Patty: Knowing full well they would not be allowed to be anywhere near the manor after this day, "Yes honey we knew,"

Hank conjured another athame and threw it at the demon. Vincent threw an energy blast at some demons but as they vanquished them more seem to come into the room.

Vincent: "You know who we need?"

Hank: Knowing the answers, "WYATT CHRIS! We need some help!"

Blue and white lights poured into the room and both men appeared next to each other. Chris saw the demons after his cousin and went straight to help Hank. Wyatt on the other hand saw the demons after Vincent and went to help him.

Wyatt: Throws an energy ball at some demons then waves his hand and most of them going flying into a wall. "Why didn't you wait for us?"

Chris: Throwing back some energy balls that were thrown at him, "Yeah! We just got off of work; we'd have loved to help!"

Wyatt: ducks as an athame was thrown at his head, "Especially with the day I had,"

Chris: Sends a demon a kick, "Me too,"

Vincent: Throws a demon to the floor and then stabs him with an athame, "Well sorry but we couldn't wait,"

Hank: Orbs the last demon somewhere, knowing who his mother was it was most likely a volcano, "Yeah, we got bored,"

Chris: Looks over at Hank drily, "Where's Lex?"

Hank: "He's out cold over there," He runs over to Lex and heals his head, "Heya buddy, how are doing?"

Lex: "Why did you throw me?"

Vincent: Walks to help Lex to his feet. "Sorry about that Lex, but you looked like a demon."

Damian: Shimmered into the room to have a bunch of athames pointed at him. "This is cool I thought we were family already!"

Wyatt: Puts his athame down. "Sorry man, but you can never be sure,"

Damian: "True,"

Vincent: A little impatient. "Did you find anything?"

Damian: Rolls his dark brown eyes, and runs a hand through his short black hair. "Yeah, yeah I found this lair of the…"

Vincent: "Where?"

Damian: Looking a little anxious he's never seen Vincent like this knowing full well what might happen if they didn't do what he wanted, "Follow me," And it wouldn't be pretty.

Leo: Orbed into the room and looked at his wife. "Hey Piper…" He was forced too stop short because he saw how she was looking at her mother and Grams. He also noticed that Mel and Parker were in the room next to their aunts/mothers. "Hey girls,"

Mel: Ops out for not saying Leo, "Hey,"

Parker: "What's up old man?"

Leo: "I'm not that old Parker,"

Parker: "You wanna bet? Because I have one going with Pace and Nix that says you're older than my father,"

Leo: Messing her hair, "You'll lose that bet Valentine," He didn't miss the look that Phoebe threw him.

Parker: Not picking up on how her mother felt or looked, "Uncle LEO! I told you how much I hate that name, don't start or my dad will start too,"

Mel: "Valentine? How many names do you have Parks?"

Parker: "Paige Parker Valentine Halliwell, nice to meet you,"

Mel: "Oh,"

Parker: "Hell you think my name is long I happen to know that your," She looks at the looks she was getting, "So Grams what brings you to our kitchen?"

Grams: Shoots her a look because now everyone is looking at her. "Well Paige if you really must know,"

Parker: Rolls her eyes, "Can I just ask you something?" Grams looks at her, "Why do I always get called Paige?"

Grams: She saw the fear in Phoebe's eyes. "I call everyone by their first name you know that!" She looks back to Piper, "Now getting back to your daughter,"

Mel: "Mel will do just fine!"

Grams: Sends her a look, "God did you not learn any manners?"

Parker: "She's a Halliwell I thought we didn't have any,"

Grams: "No we have you just don't PAIGE!"

Parker: "I'm going to blow her up one day mark my words!"

Phoebe: "Parker enough,"

Parker: Sits back in her chair, "FINE!"

Leo: "What's going on?"

Piper: "Apparently our dear Grams and mother! Knew where our daughter was this whole time, and they opt not telling that they knew,"

Leo: "Oh," He looks at them, "I'm sure they had their reasons," He looks over to them with an Elder look but deep down he felt enraged, "What where they?"

Patty: "There were some things she needed to do," Mel rolls her eyes, "Wasn't the whole Alec thing worth it in the end?"

Mel: "Really? You're going to use him as a good thing? Yeah, I don't think you have a big brain,"

Parker: "Mel!" Mel turns to look at her, "We like Grandma, we don't like Grams," Mel laughs she couldn't help it, Parker had made a face when she said it, "Believe me, you're yelling or picking a fight with the most loveable ghost we got, and you don't want to turn he nice one into Grams!"

Grams: "Phoebe control your daughter!"

Phoebe: "Grams I can't control her anymore, I thought you knew that,"

Mel: "Looks, I'm sorry I yelled but please don't act like you did me a favor,"

Patty: "Didn't we?"

Mel: Looks into her eyes and can see what she's talking about, Mel looks down, "Okay maybe you did, but that's not going to stop P…" She stopped herself from saying Piper she didn't want to see Piper hurt again.

Parker: Knowing what she was going to say, "It isn't going to stop Aunt Piper from killing you people," Again Mel turns to look at her thankful if only now Parker would take her away from the manor, away from the people that knew everything she had ever done and who she had done it with. "So now that Mel knows you know, you'll deal with her mother, because I know for a fact, Pacey or Andrew as he is known by Grams! Needs some cousin help and for some odd reason I know Nix ain't his twin from another mother so please excuse us,"

She took Mel's hand and walked out of the room and into the living-room. Still they could hear Piper yelling.

Mel: Looks over to Parker. "Parker, thank you,"

Parker: Doesn't look at Mel as they walk up to the attic. "For what?"

Mel: "For not letting them see what I was looking at, for getting me out of there,"

Parker: "We're cousins I thought you knew that,"

Mel: She stops and so does Parker, "Why is it so easy for you guys? To just take me in as if nothing?"

Parker: "Come on,"

Mel walks with her as Parker enters a room that looks like it hasn't been used in years but even so everything in the room stayed the same. There was a little bit of pink but there was a lot more light purple, it reminded her of her room back at her apartment with Vincent. There were a bunch of teddy bears around and there were pictures of what looked to be Parker and some girl. Parker goes and picks up a picture; it's the only one that doesn't have dust on it.

Mel: Parker gave it to her and she looks down to it. "Who's this?"

Parker: Pointing the people out, "That's Nix," She had short brown hair and huge brown eyes. "That's Pacey," He had short spiky hair and was wearing all black, "He grew out of the black, now he wears other colors," Then she points to a girl that is wearing a pink shirt and jeans, she has light brown hair and as huge blue eyes. "That's me," She looks up to Mel as she sees Mel's eyes shine, "Yeah I used to have lighter hair," She then points to the last girl, she has a huge smile she's missing some teeth but all in all she has a cute smile. She has light-light blue eyes and short dark brown hair, "And that's you, we were about 7 Nix was eight or nine,"

Mel: "That's me?"

Parker: Nods, "Mel I want you to know that the real reason why we can except you so easily is simple quite simple," Mel looks at her, "We knew you'd come back, and now that you are back, well, we just don't want to lose you again,"

Mel: Looks into Parker's blue eyes, "I hope we don't,"

Parker: She looks down now, "You can keep it, if you like," She looks up to her, "You don't have to but," She looks away again, "You can if you do,"

Mel: "Thanks," She takes the picture out of the frame and sticks it in her pocket. Parker never looks to see if she does take it she just looks at some other pictures, "Come on let's go look for Pacey and Nix,"

Parker: Looks back to her, "You got it!" They head for the door, "Oh but I have to warn you," She sighs, "You're not going to be happy about the demon we're chasing this time,"

Mel: "Why?"

Parker: "Because, he hates Halliwells,"

Mel: "And?"

Parker: "Guess what you are?"

Mel: Smiles for the first time she doesn't think it's a bad idea, "I'm Halliwell,"

Parker: "Damn straight,"

They walk up into the attic now.

---------------

Hope you like that, I like the little bit at the end. Looks like Mel is coming around, and Piper isn't that happy with her mother and Grams. Grams just likes to piss people off doesn't she? She does call Parker Paige. And I don't think I like her excuse, she should have come up with something better, Hell Parker doesn't trust that excuse either. But that's cause Parker doesn't like Grams, well anyways I hoped you like it and I'm going to try to update again on Sunday or tomorrow. See ya and review if you want another chapter by Monday!
