Chapter 2 Melinda's POV
I saw Paige orb in and back out, thus bringing out Meta, tracking her orb trail. Shit, I tried to freeze Meta before she looked into Aunt Paige's eyes, but she had already gazed into the Medusa like Titan. I pulled out a potion me and Chris had made a couple days before and tossed it at her, it made her move forward a little bit, but not much of anything else.
"Hey, you do know that Tunics have been out of style for hundreds of years don't you?" I said, finally making her turn around glare set in her eyes. I took that opportunity of surprise, and flicked my hands at her causing an explosion to hit her face, causing her to stumble. I flicked my hands at her again, momentarily freezing her. As I started to run towards Aunt Phoebe I pulled on a pair of sunglasses, hopefully being able to deflect Meta's stone cold glare. "Aunt Phoebe, don't look into her eyes!" I shouted at her, and I sprinted over, grabbing one of the potions my aunts made, and tossed it at her, but it had no affect.
I grabbed more potions and started to flick my hands at her, causing multiple mini explosions to hit her. With one final glare, she left in a wave of heated fury. I turned to Aunt Phoebe, and asked, "You ok?" Aunt Phoebe numbly nodded at me, and just looked at my face, as if trying to recognize me.
"Did you call me Aunt Phoebe?" she asked. Oh shit, did I call her Aunt Phoebe?
"Uh, no?" I said, clearly guilty.
"Yes, yes you did," she said, folding her arms. Aunt Phoebe suddenly tensed up, and then a minute later she opened her eyes. "Melinda?" Phoebe asked suddenly. "No, way you're the little girl that Piper saw when she went to the future," Aunt Phoebe said, suddenly very happy.
"Well, kind of." I muttered. Phoebe smiled suddenly, and pulled me into a hug, and I gratefully returned it, glad to be in the hug of a loving aunt. "I missed you," I whispered. I pulled away and sighed. I know I promised Chris at one point, that I wouldn't let the secret slip, and I did it to one of the biggest blabbermouths in the family. I'm sorry Chris. "Aunt Phoebe please don't tell Mom or Aunt Paige," I pleaded with her.
Aunt Phoebe gave me a shocked look, "You must know I can barely keep any secrets, especially about family." She said chuckling.
"Seriously, please don't tell anyone. You weren't even supposed to know, but I slipped." I said, arms behind my back. I may have exposed myself, but I am not going to expose Chris. I don't want him to be mad at me for that. Speaking of Aunt Paige, I turned around and saw she got turned into a statue.
"Oh no, Paige," Aunt Phoebe said.
"Shit," I muttered.
"Watch your language missy," Phoebe instantly. I rolled my eyes, despite Aunt Paige being turned to stone.
"I'm nineteen, not nine," Clearly not the issue, Mel. "We need to get Aunt Paige back to normal before Mom gets here." Still not the point of coming back in time, Melinda, but I can't tell Aunt Phoebe that her cutest nephew at the moment, that he will grow to be the Source of All Evil. Chris, please be safe.
Meanwhile in the Future (Chris' POV)
As I sent Melinda off into the portal, I felt a little relief that she was going to be ok, Mom and the Aunts would protect her. I stared at Wyatt; none of the old Wyatt was left inside him. "Aww, such a valiant thing to do there little brother." He smirked at me. "She is the only meal ticket that is keeping you alive right now, little bro,"
"Leave her alone," I muttered, and all I got in return to that was, a strong kick to my head.
"Oh, come now Christopher. You know I won't hurt our little sister. Now, unfortunately, I can't grace you with my presence for the moment. Now I got a little surprise for you little "bro". Enjoy yourself, buddy," With that he disappeared in a flurry of Dark orbs. Chris was about to orb after him.
"Don't even try Chris." A female voice sounded throughout the whole attic. "The whole attic is covered with a spell to block whitelighter's orbing ability." No, I thought, she can't be here. I weakly turned around and saw a blurry, but still I could tell it was her, Bianca. I can still remember her. She had been so sweet, and she seemed like a normal human, but was I wrong.
We had been dating for almost a year and a half, and I was about to propose to her on our last date. She was ok with me being half-witch, half-whitelighter. So I brought her to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge. Just as I was about to get on one knee, Bianca got a knife out. "Bi?"
"I'm sorry Chris," she had said to me, and she backhanded me. I orbed and reappeared in the same spot. I had finally noticed the Phoenix tattoo on her arm.
"You're a Phoenix?" At the time, I was so confused, but now it makes so much more sense. Of course she was ok with me being a witchlighter, she was a fucking demon the whole time. "What was the point of putting me through this Bianca? Almost two years of dating, and just throw this in my face when I was down on my knees to propose." I said tears starting to sting at my eyes.
"You, what-," Bianca stammered.
"You heard me you bitch," I spat at her. Demons shimmered in, and they stared at her clearly pissed off clients.
"Why isn't it done Bianca? We have paid you, and yet you can't get one simple bounty!" The demon sent a single energy ball towards her, but despite the fact she had tried to kill me, I saved her. I sent the energy ball back at him. She turned and stared at me, still shocked. Then she grabbed my arm, pulling me away from another energy ball shooting at me. She vanquished her clients and turned to me. I pulled the ring, and threw it at her. "A life for a life. If you ever come near me or my family again, I will vanquish your sorry backstabbing ass," And I had gone home telling everyone that I had loved, that I vanquished her. I don't know why I lied, but I did.
"You," all my hate, anger, and just every other emotion all filled into one word. She gave me a loving look. Was this bitch high?
"Oh Chris, is that anyway to look at someone you love?" Now I know she is high. I don't love her anymore, not after that stunt. Then I looked at the chain around her neck, and the engagement ring I had bought was attached.
"Are you high or something? I should have vanquished your ass when I had the chance." I spat, literally blood on her heels. I focused on the ring, and made it shoot off her neck. Bianca, instantly bent down, and grabbed my neck, her superhuman strength.
"Please baby, I don't want to hurt you. I love you," She slightly loosened the grip on my throat so I could speak.
"Take your fake lies, and shove them up your dumb bitch ass," I said. And the next thing I know, my whole world is covered in black light.
Mel's POVI hope I can figure a way out of this before Mom or Dad comes home. "Aunt Phoebe, we need to write a spell. Maybe we can break it before Mom gets home." Phoebe nodded, and grabbed a notepad and a pencil. I began to write One who is held in a charm, Release her now without harm. Good, this should be strong enough to unlock Paige from her stone prison. "Aunt Phoebe, I got a spell." Me and Phoebe went over to Paige's frozen form and began to recite the spell.
"One who is held in charm, Release her now without harm," we recited at the same time. After a few moments, Aunt Paige back to life. She took a gasp of breath, and looked around.
"Did we get her?" she asked. Then she looked at me, "And who is she?" What was I going to tell her?
Wow, that was a lot, lol. Hope you enjoyed the chapter. :D
