Prue's Story.
Prue climbed the stone spiral staircase and walked into her fathers office, "Sirius?" she called out.
Sirius was sitting behind Dumbldore's desk writing on a piece of parchment. He looked up when he heard his name being called, he smiled, "Prue."
"What are you working on? Prue asked, smiling back.
"Just re-writing some of Dumbldore's plans for the Order." Sirius told her.
"Need any help?"
"No need, all done." Sirius smiled. "Did you need anything?"
"Um. Yeah, actually there was something I needed to tell you."
Sirius took her hand from across the desk. "What's wrong?"
"No, there's nothing wrong exactly, its just. Everything...Things you need to know, because, I don't know if we'll have time to talk, before this war comes, or after.
"..."
"Sirius, I've, I've never been able to say I love you. Not at first anyway, when I was a kid, I said it to my mum just before she went off to vanquish some, water demon. And she died, that was the last thing I said to her, as she may have told you. Then since dad was always of becoming the Great Albus Dumbldore, I had too take care of my sisters, even though back then they were starting up at Hogwarts and I was trying my hand at Durmstrang institute for magical learning. First wiccan witch ever excepted into the institute.
But you know I dropped out after my fifth year Durmstrangs Dark Arts lessons where just more than I would have liked to handle. Anyway my sisters and I got closer and with me back at Hogwarts for my 6th year we were closer than ever, and I learnt to say it to them, and I let them into my heart again and my dad, some times.
"Prue."
"No, let me finish, I know I'm rambling, but I need to get this out. I need you to know."
Sirius looked at her and smiled warmly, "Tell me then."
Prue sighed. "Voldemort appeared, He wanted me, I was the oldest, that made me the most powerful. But dad took our memory's, we forgot each other for our own safety, I forgot them and how to love... I closed my heart again, a few years later we got our memory's back. the source was back and Voldemort was still rising into power.
It was Paige's wedding I couldn't miss that they needed me, to be the oldest sister again.
And the last thing I said to her... before she walked up the alter was, I love you."
Prue had tears in her eyes "...And she's dead Sirius. My sister is dead. But we beat the great evil so that's consolation for the death of my baby sister, right? Funny thing is the dark side won, we were foretold to be most powerful because of the power of four, but we never got to test it.
But know everything is suddenly getting back on track. Phoebe and Piper back mostly, mum too, and getting to know Wyatt again, and Hermione. Just Paige missing.
But the most important thing? Being here again, with you. Sirius, you have this power over me. You've made me able to bring down all those walls I built around myself, made me open my heart, every rule I had. Gone. Sirius, I think you've
I just want, need you to know that I really love you. And that you've made it easier for me to say. Thats my story.
Sirius looked completely euphoric. "I love you too Prue, always."
Prue laughed, "Really?"
"Of course."
"I'm pregnant Sirius."
"..."
"..."
"What?"
"I'm pregnant?"
"Oh."
"Oh."
"OH! Your pregnant!" Sirius shouted as if what she said had suddenly made all the sense in the world. He walked around the table and picked her up around the waist spinning her around.
"We're pregnant!" He laughed.
Prue laughed as her slipped out of its bun, and over her shoulders.
"Prue do you know exactly to what extent this how powerful this child is going to be?" Sirius asked excitedly. "Your the The charmed one."
"Sirius I was a charmed one. Hermione is THE charmed one."
Sirius sighed, "Yeah Okay but, you where THE charmed one of your generation. You will always be the super witch, its your legacy."
Prue shook her head, "if you say so."
"I say so." Sirius kissed her.
"So the Source is what exactly?"
"The source of all evil. The Source itself is not a specific demon, but actually a very ancient ethereal entity of supreme supernatural evil and magical power. Its Mode of Operation over the ages has been to move into the body of each demon that held the position of the Source, absorbing the powers, personality, and memories of each said demon into itself.
Therefore, each demon that defeated other demons to hold the position of the Source, would over a long enough period of time literally become the same Source possessing the new host and its body with all his powers. But this is generally known to most Demons. Except Cole turner that is, who is actually was the source at one point." Piper scowled notably at the Book of Shadows.
"My dad was the source of all evil take that, Voldy." Hermione grinned.
" Pay attention Hermione. The Source had many powers including pyrokinesis, telekinesis, Immortality, Immunity, Regenration, adjusting, reconstitution, flaming, sensing and possession; was able to phase, appearing as a non-corporeal entity; cast flameballs and force blasts; could move at extremely fast speeds; generate electrical fields; shapeshift and even transform. The Source was also telepathic, able to read 'souls'; and minds and project and hear thoughts, even across dimensions; create mental illusions; and cloud minds, subtly influencing them.
His very presence was enough to momentarily disrupt Magic protection spells." Piper read aloud.
"So we'll know if he's about." Hermione grimaced. "But I don't get it, Voldemort hasn't said a word, what's he planing?"
"From what Severus has gathered, the Source has absorbed the Hollow, and Voldemort is planing to absorb the Source. But that's all we know." Piper told her.
Hermione sensed her aunts dislike as she spoke of the three worst evils of the world. "If he succeeds he'll be the most powerful Demon in t he world."
"you said it. not me."
"How do we stop him?"
Piper sighed, and Hermione felt the weight of her emotions.
"We don't stop him. You do."
"...Huh?"
"Hermione you've always know, what you had to do."
"well yeah. but .. all by my self?"
"Your the only one that can, we don't have our powers any more, were only a reflection of what we used to be, it has to be you."
"I know. OK how do I do this."
The spell to vanquish the source is a spell that calls upon all of our ancestors in order, so we'll have to re write it. the last to die you say first. pulling out a piece of parchment. she wrote,
Piper,
Phoebe,
Paige, Patricia
Penelope Melinda...
Astrid, Helena
Laura and Grace
Halliwell Witches
Stand strong beside me
Vanquish this evil
from time and space
"God, so weard having to write my own name here." Piper sighed.
"Thats it?"
"No that would be to easy, you'll need a spell to vanquish the Hollow, and the Harry has to kill Voldemort, thats his destiny, and all the demons they send us too."
Hermione groaned. "Shit."
"Hermione You'd better go, Phoebe's waiting in the chamber." Prue told her as she walked into the classroom.
"Now, Up kick spin and down." Phoebe shouted instructions, as her daughter levitated in mid air.
"She's ready." Phoebe told, Cole who on the floor doing push ups. "123...124...125...Not yet she's not. 126...127..."
Phoebe grunted. "How can you say that, look at her, she's levitating like you taught me. Using the air under her feet as if it where solid floor."
"Phoebe face it she's only ready when she can do this." Cole smirked and stood up.
"Hermione!"
Hermione looked down from where she was levitating. "Yeah dad?"
"On your feet."
Mione used to her fathers training, was on her feet in an instant.
"Cartwheel, floor kick, middle block, back flip, fireball!" Cole barked in a voice Phoebe knew all to well.
Phoebe watched proudly as Hermione completed all of Cole's orders. The way she had once done.
"back kick, palm heel strike, molecular combustion, spin and middle kick, back flip slide and fade!"
Hermione faded and reappeared on her knees at her mothers feet, breathing heavily.
"Now, she's ready." Cole told her smiling.
Hermione sat on the floor in their common room, Draco's head in her lap. They sat together both thinking about the evil they had witnessed that night, while the rest of the school had sat down to dinner, Hermione, Draco, Pansy and Blaise had been summoned by Voldemort again.
This time they did not commit any of the challenges Voldemort had set for them, really it seemed he was quite pleased with them after their fast tasks, apparently nothing else needed to be shown.
No, tonight the had stood before him as his followers and listened to his plans to absorb the source into himself. They listened to his plan to over take Hogwarts in a few months time.
They had stood silently through it all, in shocked silence, and Hermione had used her empathy power (which she now controlled to perfection.) She felt his power, his hatred, towards the world. It sickened her.
They had even stood silently through the duel between Lucius Malfoy and Severus. Thought Hermione felt Draco's murderous hatred towards his father, when Lucius had shouted that Snape was welcome to the adulterating whore.
"Hey guys, maybe its time for you to get to bed?" Leo said, as he walked into the common room, the family in tow.
Draco sat up, and with one look in Hermione's direction smiled slightly, "Actually we where waiting for you all to get back. We have something to tell you." He said.
"Oh? Whats up?" Prue asked, sitting down by Sirius.
"We've decided, that with the war and everything we want to hold on to every bit of normality we can, we want to live every moment, because we don't know if we'll live to see it all." Hermione breathed out.
"What is it your saying Mione?" Piper asked confused.
"She's saying that I've asked her to marry me. And she said yes." Draco filled in.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"Thats great." Phoebe beamed. "I think your doing the right thing, who knows what could happen." She told them.
"I agree." Cole grinned Grabbing Phoebe and kissing her lovingly.
Hermione and Draco smiled at each other.
"We'll get this sorted as soon as possible." Piper promised happily.
"Well now that we're deciding things, we might as well tell you." Sirius laughed as he nagged Prue.
"Not you too! I can only fix up one wedding at a time!" Piper said exasperated.
Prue laughed and shook her head, "No wedding, not yet, actually its more like a baby shower."
"..."
"..."
"Thats amazing! How far are you?" Piper said after the shock had warn away.
"4 months."
"And a half." Sirius grinned.
"God i knew she was getting fat." Cole smirked.
"OI!" Prue narrowed her eyes at him, causing a book to fly into his face.
"Ah! Sorry sorry!" Cole yelled, holding his nose.
"Prue, with the baby due in 5 months, you'll need to go into hidding like Cissa." Phoebe told her frowning.
"Actually, i found a spell in the book to speed up pregnancy, I'm going to try it." Prue told them.
"..."
"Oh, Prue no!" Piper shook her head.
"Its safe Piper, its moms spell, and she'll preform it, I'll do it and when Im six months, I'll give birth birth as if it were nine months gone." Prue explained.
"We'll talk to mom about it. But not tonight, I'm going to bed Wyatts all alone up their." Piper rolled her eyes at her sister, sticking out her tounge at her.
"Goodnight."
"Goodnight." Phoebe said back.
Prue sighed and waved her hand as Piper's book followed her up the staircase.
"Thank you!" Piper called from her bedroom.
"Your welcome!" Prue called, smiling again.
