Little Witch
Chapter Three
Wyatt walked into his living room and saw his mom, dad, his two aunts, a red-haired woman, and a dark-haired girl. The girl looked almost exactly like Aunt Prue, only younger. She had the same light blue eyes, long, dark hair, pale skin, and even the same stubborn set of her jaw. "Uh...what's going on here, exactly?" Wyatt asked.
"That's your aunt Paige and your cousin Pippa. Enjoy." That came from his mother, and he looked the two unfamiliar women over again. Aunt Prue had a daughter? He had a cousin? How much had Wyatt missed exactly?
Prue told the story over again to Wyatt, and he kept looking over to Prue's daughter, Pippa. He had a cousin who was not only a lost Halliwell, but a half-demon. Damn it, he thought. She probably has more powers than I do. She probably has no idea how to use them, though. The last thought perked him up, but his momentary happiness was killed when the Elders summoned his dad. Leo was an Elder, too, but it was still annoying when he was constantly summoned by them. It made Wyatt want to go up there and tell the other Elders that they couldn't have his dad all the time. He knew his mom felt the same way - even though she saw it more jokingly - but they both knew they couldn't do that.
While Leo was gone, Wyatt tried to talk to Pippa, his newfound cousin. She, apparently, wanted nothing to do with him, though. Every time he asked her a question about herself or her magic, she'd give him clipped, vague answers. Eventually he just gave up and stared at the rug. When Aunt Pheobe tried to talk to her, though, she opened up like a flower. Wyatt felt both a little surprised at the fact that Aunt Pheobe was being so nice to the spawn of her sister's betrayal and annoyed that Pippa treated him like he was diseased but treated Aunt Pheobe like they were best friends.
He'd been talking to Paige - his newfound aunt - when Leo returned. "Prue," he said solemnly. She looked up from watching Pippa intently. "You've been summoned by the Elders. Take my arm." Aunt Prue cautiously took his arm and they orbed out without another word.
