Last time
"Hear these words, here my cries,
sprit from the other side
come to me, I summon thee,
cross now the great divide."
And for the second time small lights surrounded her and the flowed over to the clear space in front of them, and slowly but steadily it began to take form. A woman in a sparkling blue dress was stepping out of the light, the young woman stepped out of the light and pulled a very handsome man out with her.
Hermione was speechless. "Mum? Dad?"
Her Family
Back to the story
The other three couldn't say a word but they where all thinking the same. 'Hermione's parents? But there dead aren't they?'
"Mum? Dad?" Hermione said again tears poring down her cheeks.
"Oh honey, don't cry." Phoebe said quietly, and pulled her daughter towards her.
Cole walked over and hugged his daughter but then quickly let go, fearing he'd get too attached.
"Phoebe we're not meant to be here." Cole said. Then looked up at the ceiling and yelled.
"LEO!"
"LEO GET YOUR MAGICAL ARSE DOWN HERE NOW!"
"For Merlin sake Cole this is you daughter!" Phoebe cried still holding on to Hermione.
Phoebe pulled back quickly from her daughter and started to examine her just as Penny did. Then she found what she was looking for.
"Cole!"
"LEO!"
"Cole!"
"LEO!"
"Cole god dam it look!" She yelled at him.
"Yes Phoebe, Hermione has lovely arms now will you come on?"
Phoebe grunted and made Cole look closely at the symbol on Hermione's arm. Cole looked at Hermione with soft eyes.
"You're the Charmed one?" He asked softly.
"Yes…Dad." Hermione answered him shyly.
Cole looked a bit shocked at being called dad but quickly got over it. "Is the symbol complete?" Phoebe asked while hugging her again.
"Prue competed it two hours ago."
"Wait Prue's here?" Cole and Phoebe asked at the same time. Hermione could only nod. Before anyone could say a thing.
They saw someone appear in a bright blue light,
"Leo!" Cole walked over to him. "Piper?"
"You called? Wait what are you two doing here it's against the rules." Leo said. Then he saw Hermione.
"Oh my"
"Who are you?" Hermione asked looking quite shocked.
"Oh sorry I'm Leo. I'm Pipers husband." Leo smiled warmly at her.
"Wait then you're an" Hermione couldn't finish.
"we're angels." Finished for her.
"Piper what are you doing here?" Phoebe asked hugging her sister.
"Ok Leo what's going on? We know the rules so why are we here. How could Hermione summon us?"
"Your powers." Leo stated simply.
"What?" Hermione, Cole and Phoebe asked together.
Leo sighed, "You two are meant to give Hermione your powers so she can"
"So she can defeat the source." Piper cut in. feeling it be better to hear it from her own lips.
"The Source?" Phoebe looked incredibly worried. "Leo it's impossible the Source can only be destroyed by the power of three!- and she only looks like one to me."
"It's the way things go now Phoebe it can't be helped." Cole said trying to calm his wife down.
Phoebe sighed and wrote the spell down and handed the paper to Cole. They both took a deep breathe the started the spell.
"What's mine is yours
What's yours is mine
Let our powers cross the line
I offer up my gift to share
Share the powers through the air."
The small white lights that surrounded Hermione's parents now slowly made their way to Hermione. Just like before.
The lights covered her from head to toe in a white cloud of smoke. When Hermione looked down at herself she found she started rising off the floor. Again. She noticed that the mark on her arm was now turning different colours.
"Blessed be." All three said together.
"Hermione" Piper looked at her with sad eyes. "you have to send them back." Hermione shook her head and started to cry again.
Once she started crying Phoebe hugged her close again.
"Oh Hermione, my baby. I love you so much. But this isn't our place anymore it's yours."
Cole kneeled down next to his wife. Holding on to Hermione for dear life. "You have to send us back honey."
"How?" Hermione asked bitterly. "Just wish for it." Phoebe told her as she stood up.
Hermione nodded but nothing happened.
"Leo why isn't it working?" Cole asked. Before Leo could answer Hermione screamed. A black hole had opened itself in the middle of the common room.
"Oh my god! Leo the Nexcess!"
"What that's impossible." Cole and Leo said at once. "Tell him that!" Phoebe said and moved Hermione behind her.
"I am light, I am one too strong to fight,
returnto dark where shadows dwell,
youcannot have this Halliwell,
goaway and leave my sight,
andtake with you this endless night"
"Piper, Hermione say it with me! It's to strong!" Phoebe shouted over the noise.
"I am light, I am one too strong to fight,
returnto dark where shadows dwell,
youcannot have this Halliwell,
goaway and leave my sight,
andtake with you this endless night"
Piper, Hermione and Phoebe recited the spell four times before it would disappear for good.
"Phoebe, Cole! Leo, Piper! How lovely to see you again!" Everyone looked up to see Dumbledore, Prue, Penny and Snape enter the Common room.
"Mum? Dad?" Phoebe and Piper said the same way Hermione had when she saw them. "Oh Phoebe! Piper! My darlings!" Penny was positively glowing with love for her daughter hugging her so tight it hurt.
"Phoebe!"
"Piper!"
"Prue!"
"Leo!"
"Cole!"
"Sev!"
It was such an incredible sight a time for everyone to be happy but all Hermione could think about was Piper, she was out there some where Leo had not said it but if he was an angel so was she, 'and I'm going to find her!' Hermione said to herself.
"Hermione what did you do?" Penny asked staring down at herself. She was losing her deathly glow, so were Cole, Phoebe, Piper and Leo. It was almost like they were alive!
"Its not me!" Hermione said without taking her eyes from them.
"All of you check your powers." Dumbledore said wisely. So for the next ten minutes the room was filled with small explosions, flying, small objects moving at will. You name it, it was there.
"Well if you all have your powers then it's not that bad. Cole, Phoebe, Leo, and Piper you'll all have to stay." Dumbledore said happily.
"We'll discuss it at dinner come on!"
All of them left for dinner and Hermione started to wonder where Draco, Pansy and Blaise had all gotten to.
They all walked do The Great Hall. "It's good to be back!" They all said at once.
"That I agree with shall we go make an appearance." Dumbledore said he had a twinkle in his eye. The group nodded their heads and walked into the hall. Dumbledore walked in a few minutes behind everyone. He went directly to the staff table Hermione noticed their was an extra table in front of the staff one.
The Hall started to fill and everyone started at the table. Soon the hall was full and Dumbledore stood up.
"Professor Penny Halliwell will be taking Charms along with Professor Prue Halliwell for that reason as most of you have noticed there is an extra table well this is for our new Defence against the Dark Arts Teachers..
May I introduce Professor P. Halliwell, her husband Professor C. Turner." Phoebe and Cole entered the hall hand in hand waving at Hermione and Draco before sitting at the table. "Next we have Professor P. Halliwell-Wyatt and her husband Professor L. Wyatt, and their son Wyatt Mathew." Leo and Piper walked in with the baby and winked at Hermione's shocked face. Wyatt instantly felt Hermione's Wiccan power and suddenly orbed into Hermione's arms.
Dumbledore smiled. "It seems that our head-girl is familiar with the family so why don't you sit with them for your dinners instead of sitting at your house tables" Dumbledore suggested. Hermione stood up and motioned Draco to come with her. Draco shook his head.
"Mr Malfoy. Why don't you join in with the family, seeing as your already part of it." Draco laughed then stood up and followed Hermione to the teachers table. . When they got to the table they got pulled into a big hug by Piper.
"We've heard so much about you!"
They all sat at the table when the food appeared in front of them Hermione and Draco Once they had finish Dumbledore stood up and announced that everyone but the new teachers and the heads could go. Dumbledore approached them they all stood up.
"Now seeing has your all family I think you should all share a common room what do you think?" Everyone nodded "Great now follow me." They all followed Dumbledore as he led them through the school stopping at a portrait of Melinda Warren,
the professors gasped "The password is 'Charmed' (The portrait swung open and the professors entered first.) "Hermione am I right in assuming you would like to stay with your parents?" Hermione nodded.
"Then I see no problem in Draco staying with you. You two may share a room if you wish." Dumbledore said
"Really?" They both asked together
"We all know of your relationship and you are of age now so there shouldn't be a problem."
"What about the mission dorm?" Draco asked.
"Well in light of the situation, we'll put everything on hold for the time being." He said before leaving the heads walked in and closed the portrait shut behind them they went straight to their room it was a light powder blue with powder green bedding it looked fantastic all their things had been put away.
They went back out and sat on the sofas waiting for the family to come out so they could talk.
