Melinda
Power of One
Episode 7
Utopia
25th November 2025
I don't know where to start. The whole world has gone mad! The effect of the Full Moon is gone, but what it has done to the people out there is indescribable. A lot of people has killed someone and have to deal with that now. Emotionally but also by law! Women crying while they hold their just born baby that they had killed themselves. So much misery! It is breaking my heart. The Cleaners are working like crazy to make sure that the world forgets what happened, but they can only clean up the mess the magical beings has made. Good or Evil. The damage that the normal people have created can't be fixed by Cleaners.
If you go out to the streets it looks a war has taken place. We are heading for dark times and there is nothing I can do then watch. Wyatt is saying that in the last week, we also have lost a lot of magical beings, but also the same amount on Demons. I have seen Wyatt and Chris for like 10 minutes the last couple of days. They are working around the clock to fix what can be fixed.
As it comes to me, I have been feeling pretty ok. I feel strong and reborn. Something in me has changed after feeling the raw power of my ancestors.
This whole Moon thing has brought Jake and me together. It feels like he is the one for me, but there is so much between us, starting with one of the most important thing and that is our magic. More precisely, the way we use it.
He is really of making circles and praying to the Goddess and God. Holding Asbats and Esbats and we, well we are Charmed. We can skip all those kind of things and get right to the point with things…I believe that we will find a way. We have to. I can't lose him again!
After Melinda was done writing, she kept hanging around in her room. Her brothers were gone and she was all alone in the house and had already cleaned up everything yesterday, so there was not much for her to do. She didn't want to watch the television. The only thing you saw at this moment was misery.
The government was thinking that this was some kind of test to humanity. Others believe it was an alien invasion in our brains, which made the whole world aggressive. It was all bunch of crap and Melinda wished that she could call the news station and tell them it was the work of a very mean witch, who cast a spell 300 years ago, but with everything going on, nobody would even think for a second that it would be true and probably lock her up. She decided to go to magic school and visit her mother. She took a teleportation potion, which she had lying all over the house, just in case she needed quickly one.
Magic School
Melinda orbed in at the great hall of the school. Everybody was running around and the teachers were trying to calm down some of the students. Some of them were crying, some of them were angry. The people at Magic School weren't affected by the Full Moons spell, but their parents outside the school were. So some of them were vanquished by Demons, some had disappeared, most of them were hurt. The students at school had a hard time dealing with it. They had the feeling that they had could have done something to help their parents! Her heart went out for them and she was just about to walk up to some students she had taught herself, when she heard her mother's voice behind her. She turned around to see Piper sitting on the ground holding a girl, who just had heard that her parents didn't made it and she had collapsed on the ground, crying and Piper was hugging her and trying to calm her down. Piper looked up and saw her daughter standing there and you could see the relief on her face.
Melinda walked over to her mother and Piper let the girl gently go, so she could get up.
Piper: Hi honey. How are you?
Melinda: Bit tired, but ok.
Piper: I heard what happened in the woods. I'm proud of you. Too bad I couldn't see this amazing power that you have shown. I felt it all the way here, but couldn't get away. The school was filling the last couple of days, with wounded students and students that had lost someone they loved. How is it in the outside world?
Melinda: It is horrible. A lot of people are hurt or killed by their loved ones. Women who has killed their own children! Everything is a mess. The Cleaners and whitelighters are working around the clock to make sure that all exposed magical being and magical actions are forgotten by humans.
Piper: Who is going to make the humans forget of what happened? Now that magic is exposed to the world, some people will try to figure out what really happened.
Melinda: On the news they are talking about a military test or even an alien invasion. Piper laughed by that idea.
Piper: That would be a change if it was true! How are you holding up in the Manor?
Melinda: I was about to ask you the same question. How are you holding up here at Magic School?
Piper: Well you know. It is not home, but Leo has done his best to make it feel like home. You want to see, she asked smiling?
Melinda: Sure! While they were walking to the chambers of were Piper was staying, they catched up on things like Melinda staying alone at the Manor. About the raw power and of course about Jake! They walked in the chamber and Melinda stopped at the spot and was watching it with open mouth. It was like she walked straight in the living room of the Manor. Leo knew how much it hurt Piper that she had to leave her house, so he created magically the living room so it still felt like home…Melinda was completely surprised and proud of her father of thinking about stuff like that.
Manor
After her visit at Magic School, Melinda came home and had nothing to do, so she called Jake to see if they could meet somewhere. Unfortunately Jake was too busy with making healing circles and trying to send as much positive energy to the world with his coven. Melinda felt restless and wanted to do something useful. She decided to go outside and see if she could help out people. She changed her clothes and went downstairs and walked towards the kitchen to get a drink, before she left. When demons all around her shimmered in and started to attack her. Melinda froze most of the energy balls that came her way, but the demons shimmered out and shimmered in all over the place and attacked her from all sides. She blew some energy balls away. Some she directed back at the Demons with her telekinesis and some of the Demons were vanquished. Now Melinda was hiding behind the dinner table which was blown in to halve and there were three demons left. First they kept shooting energy balls at her direction and then suddenly it stopped and the demons shimmered out.
Melinda got up from her hiding place and was completely freaked out about the attack. 'This was close' she thought to herself. She looked around at the mess and groaned. Then out of nowhere she got hit by an energy ball in her back and flew across the room against the wall. She recovered quickly and blew the Demons up, who came closing in on her. After all Demons were vanquished, she kept sitting there and waited if there were more coming, but it didn't and she got up. She looks around and started to chant:
"Let the object of objection become but a dream
As I cause the seen to be unseen."
All the broken furniture started to repair itself and in seconds things were normal again. Melinda smiled. 'I just love magic', she said to herself. She got in the kitchen and got the drink and walked back to the dinner room and to the door, to get her coat. When three Avatars appeared in front of her out of nowhere and Melinda holds her hands up to blow them away and they flew to the door and got up quickly not looking pleased.
Melinda: Oops! Sorry didn't see that you were the Avatars. I just got attacked by a bunch of Demons, so I'm a bit edgy.
Alpha: It is ok. You must wonder why we have come to you? He said.
Melinda: No not really actually, but do tell, she said impatiently, knowing that it couldn't be good if all three avatars appeared in front of her.
Gamma: You must have noticed the outside world and the suffering?
Melinda: Yes I have and the cleaners and whitelighters are working on it, to make the world forget what happened again.
Alpha: We know, he said and looked at Melinda worried.
Melinda: What? What is it? She said getting more inpatient by the minute.
Alpha: Almost twenty years ago we have come to your mother and aunts and asked the same question as we are asking you now, he said cryptic, which made Melinda more irritated.
Melinda: Ok, can you get to the point please? I have stuff to do and need to go!
Alpha: Some things shouldn't be rushed and should be decided with care. Melinda made a face which indicated that she was losing her patience. 'About 20 years ago your parents agreed to create a new world called Utopia.
Melinda: I know. I have read all the history books about the previous Charmed Ones.
Gamma: Back then we hadn't planned it ahead and just wanted the world get rid of Demons and evil.
Now we had almost 20 years to prepare for a new chance to change the world and make it a better place.
Delta: This time we will and can make sure that everybody will change and that there will not be people who can cause any trouble. Everybody will be happy!
Melinda: In meantime everybody will also loose there free will, I guess.
Alpha: No they don't. This will not be like the last time. The only thing that changes is, that people won't have to fear evil again. People will be happy about themselves and about the people around
them.
Melinda: I got the point. Why do you come to me?
Delta: Because you are the strongest magical being that walks the earth. We have been collecting power over the years, but still to make a big change as this, we need your power added to the collective to make this happen.
Melinda: I don't know about this. It doesn't feel right. Who am I to decide to change the whole world?
Alpha: Have you looked outside lately? People are suffering. Murdering each other! Demons are lost. A lot of magical beings has been killed, which infect the world, more then you maybe realize. A lot of nymphs are killed. This means that they cannot use their power to make the plants and trees grow. A lot of whitelighters has been killed, who cannot help their charges anymore, which leaves the charges unprotected against evil. I can continue with this for a while.
Melinda: I got the point. I didn't think about that yet.
Alpha: We believe that this is the way, to make the world normal again. Otherwise we believe that this suffering will get worse and that the world we know will never be the same again.
Melinda: I have to think about this. I cannot just give you an answer right now.
Gamma: We understand, but please make haste with whatever you decide to do. The faith of the world is in your hands at this moment.
Melinda: Thanks. That makes it so much easier to make a decision, she said sarcastically.
Delta: We will leave you for now. You know how to reach us when you have decided. Melinda nodded and the Avatars left, leaving Melinda with her thoughts.
John's lair in the Underworld
John was pacing around in his lair. He was restless. He found out what really happened with the world after Melinda had saved it. Now he knew why Demons attacked him and he also knew that they were themselves again, so he closed his eyes and one of his minions appeared.
Demon: You have called for me, my liege?
John: Yes I have. Now things are back to normal I can continue with my plan. To become the new Source of all evil!
Demon: How can I help my liege?
John: Find me a mind reader and then kidnap one of the kids from magic school. If I'm right, they have all learned their history about the previous Charmed Ones and they will know where the Grimoire is hidden.
Demon: The Grimoire? But that book has been lost many years?
John: I know. I still need it. In the Grimoire is the ritual which gives me the full power of the Source.
Demon: I will do my best, my liege! The Demon shimmered out leaving John with a huge evil grin on his face.
Manor
Melinda was sitting on the couch in the living room and was thinking about what happened the last days with the Moon and the world going mad and the Avatars and what she was supposed to do now?
This was all too much and she needed help. She closed her eyes and thought of both her brothers. Both of them orbed right in.
Chris: You called? Both her brothers looked awful and tired and like they haven't been sleeping for days.
Melinda: Yes I did. Are you guys ok? How are you holding up? How is it up there?
Wyatt: A hell. Everybody is in panic. We have lost quit an amount of whitelighters and a lot of charges are terrified for a Demon attack, now they have no protection of a whitelighter.
Melinda: That doesn't sound so good. How is it with the humans?
Chris: The same. The whole world is in panic. Magic is exposed and it is impossible to make the whole world forget, he said frustrated and ran his hands through his black hair.
Melinda: Well maybe I have a solution, she said looking at her brothers?
Wyatt: Really? Tell us.
Melinda: I had a little visit from our friends the Avatars and they want to create another Utopia.
Chris: Like the one they did all those years ago?
Melinda: Yes, only this time it will be different and people will not vanish in thin air, like it happened then, when someone caused conflict.
Wyatt: What do you think?
Melinda: I think it would solve our problems instantly, but I'm not sure if this is the way. Something about it annoys me, but I can't put my finger on it! She said frustrated.
Wyatt: Did you already talk to mom and dad?
Melinda: No I haven't and you guys are also not telling them, till we have decided what to do.
Chris: Why? They can help.
Melinda: That's the whole point you guys. This is the reason I have sent them away. We are now the Charmed Ones. It is our call. Like it was theirs back then. Otherwise they can move back in and help us out with everything. The Demons must take us seriously and fear us and not our mother.
Wyatt: Ok, so it is then our decision?
Melinda: Well we don't have to give answer right away, but they expect as soon as we can an answer.
Chris: We can't keep it long hidden from mom and dad. I suppose if we go through with it, it will happen in magic school, like the last time?
Melinda: I think so. I didn't ask actually. I was just attacked by a whole bunch of demons and when I was done with them, they appeared with this offer.
Wyatt: I will ask the Elders and their thoughts about this.
Chris: I don't think they are going to like it.
Wyatt: Well if you look at what is happening in the world, I don't think they will argue with us and be happy that everything turns to normal again.
Chris: If we do this, then there will be no longer Elders, he said looking at his brother. Wyatt realized what his brother was saying.
Wyatt: I'm going up there and will come back soon. Don't decide anything without me, ok? He orbed out.
Melinda: I'm going to check the Book of Shadows to see if I can find anything, which can help us decide what to do.
Chris: Ok. I will go and see if I can help out anybody. I'm just a call away if you need me and I will think about the Avatars in the meantime. He gave his sister a kiss on the forehead and orbed out, leaving Melinda alone and confused.
John's lair
In the meantime has John summoned all the leaders of the Underworld to explain to them what really had happened last week and why everybody behaved weird and angry and informed them about his plans about becoming the new Source.
Manor
Melinda had been talking with her aunts. Phoebe was sick. She couldn't take the sorrow of all the people. It was crushing in on her like needles. She couldn't think straight or even talk normally. Aunt Paige was also helping out with the rest of the whitelighters to heal anybody she could and help out as much as she could. After talking with her aunts, she decided that she had to tell her mother and dad. Her mom probably already knew, with being the Matriarch and all and be able the distress of one of her family members. She took a teleportation potion to the Magic School.
Magic School
She orbed in the great hall and nothing had pretty much changed, since she left. She closed her eyes and took a deep breath and then started to search for her mom. She past her dads office and knocked on the door.
Leo: Come in.
Melinda: Hi dad. Do you know where mom is? I need to talk to you both about some important stuff.
Leo: I think she is in the Manor.
Melinda: Huh? I just came from the Manor.
Leo: Sorry. I meant the magical Manor, he said smiling and Melinda grinned too.
Both of them walked out the office to the direction of the Manor. They walked in and Melinda stopped again and kept looking around and touching stuff, to see how real it was, and it felt pretty real. Her mother came downstairs from the stairs and walked up to her family.
Piper: I thought I felt you two walking in, she said hugging them both. She looked at her daughter and then got serious. 'I think we should all go to the living room and sit down, because I have a bad feeling about what Melinda is going to tell us. They all walked to the living room and Piper and Leo sat next to each other, holding hands and wait for what her daughter was about to say.
Melinda: I had visitors today. First I was attacked by a swarm of Demons out of nowhere. It was pretty close. Then just before I wanted to go outside and see if I could help anybody, the Avatars appeared.
They want to create again a Utopia, but this time it will be different.
Piper: last time they came to us, we trusted them too and it sounded great, but then when it was too late, we found out that they weren't completely honest with us. First they tricked us by saying that first everyone else would change and then if we liked what was happening, we would change too. But they didn't wait, they changed us too, if we wanted or not. Then, she continued before Melinda could interrupt. Then started to make people disappear. Erase them, because they were causing conflict.
Melinda: They told me, that it would be different this time. They have learned from their previous mistakes and they understand that we are also able to eliminate them, how un-effected they may seem to our powers.
Piper: I don't trust them. How will they deal with conflict? Put all people who cause conflict on a special island they have created for them?
Alpha: Maybe I can explain. They all turned to see Alpha standing by the door opening. Piper hold her hands up and wanted to blow him away, but the Alpha held both his hand up. So Piper kept her hands in the air, but didn't use her powers.
Piper: How dare you to interfere in our conversation. This is what I mean, she said to Melinda. They cannot be trusted. They can hear and see everything and if they don't like it, they make people disappear.
Alpha: I understand that the last time was not ideal. But like Melinda has told you, we have learned from our mistakes and we will make sure that history not repeats itself. Have you been outside the Magic School lately, piper?
Piper: What has that to do with anything? She asked annoyed.
Alpha: I would go and see for yourself what has become from the world. Then I believe you would agree with us that the world needs desperately a change. Something we can provide.
Melinda: he has a point mom. You haven't seen the world and what it has become.
Piper: There is one thing I don't understand. Didn't you save the world by stopping the effects of the Moon?
Melinda: I did, but I couldn't make the people forget the things they have done. If I hadn't stopped it, it would have been worse than it is at this moment, but it is now also pretty bad.
Piper: Honey. This is not a good idea. He may say whatever he wants, but the Avatars have shown themselves twice and twice they have changed the world into Utopia. First 600 years ago and the last time almost 20 years ago. Both times, people fought them and won in the end. There is a reason for that. Otherwise the world still would be Utopia. She looked deep in the eyes of her daughter, hoping to get through to her.
Melinda: I understand mom, but I still have to think about it. I just can't ignore what is going on with the world and just think about what I would want to do or not…there are innocent lives depending on it.
Piper: I will not allow it! She said sharply.
Melinda: Mom I love you with all my heart, but this is not up to you anymore. We are now the Charmed Ones and it is our decision now, like it was yours back then. Piper looked as she got slapped and backed a bit away from her daughter. Leo came standing next to her, for support.
Piper: I'm maybe not a Charmed One anymore, but I'm still the Matriarch of this family. So I still have some say in this.
Melinda: Mom, I didn't come her to fight with you. I also didn't come here for your permission. I came here to inform you about what is going on. I wanted to hear your opinion about the whole thing and I think I have just got my answer. Melinda turned around to Alpha: 'let's do this' she said. Alpha nodded.
Alpha: I will inform the rest and we will start the preparation. Tonight at midnight we will make the change, if that is ok with you, he asked looking at Melinda? She just nodded and he disappeared.
Leo: Honey, shouldn't you talk to your brothers first, before you decide on your own? This is a very big decision and if the change happens there will be a lot of things that will change. There will be no more Magic School and no more Elders. You will still have your powers but you won't have to use them anymore, which sounds cool in the beginning, but can be a pain in a long run. I just hope that you have made the right decision and didn't made it of annoyance or to prove some point or so.
Melinda: Maybe I should have discussed it with the guys.
Piper: So you are saying that they have no clue about the offer of the Avatars?
Melinda: No, they do. But we had decided that we should think about it. Wait. She closed her eyes to summon her brothers and they orbed in right in front of her.
Wyatt: What's up? Any news about the Avatars?
Piper: Hello to you too. She said with sarcasm. The boys both turned around to see her mom and dad standing there.
Chris: Mom, did you come to visit us?
Piper: Sweetie you are in Magic School.
Chris: You are right. I can feel it. This is so weird and in a freaky way also very cool, he said grinning.
Melinda: I have said to the Avatars that I want to do the change, she blurted, through the pointless conversation her brother was having about the magical house.
Wyatt: You did what?
Melinda: I told them that I agree with the change.
Chris: Well I don't. I believe that we can fix it ourselves.
Melinda: Really? How are you planning to do that Chris? You have seen what is happening with the world. How are we going to fix it? How are we going to make sure that everything will be normal again?
Chris: We are working on it. That's why we need to talk to you, he said to Melinda. The Elders think that we if we write the right spell and combine all the powers we have, meaning the Elders, us and mom and we say the spell all at the same time, than the world would be normal again. As far as you can call it normal!
Melinda: And you are sure that will work?
Chris: No, but that is the best we got for now.
Melinda: This is my point. The people are already confused. Not everybody forgot what happened yet, so if we do the spell, how will that affect the people and the way they think? We are no gods. We cannot keep playing with people's minds.
Wyatt: That is not what we are trying to do Melinda. I don't understand why you are so eager to say yes to the Avatars and take the easy way? Are you so eager to lose your free will?
Melinda: They have told me, that we won't lose our free will. They promised.
At that moment Paige orbed in with Phoebe, who looked terrible and very pale. Wyatt rushed over to help Paige to put Phoebe on the couch.
Wyatt: What happened to Aunt Phoebe? He asked worried/
Paige: Because she is an empathy, she feels all the sorrow and suffering from the whole world and she can't handle it and I can't blame her. They whole world is gone mad. People are fighting. People are crying on the ground in the middle of the road, not caring if they will get hit by a car.
Chris: We are working on it. It is actually good that you are here. He explained to Paige and Phoebe what the plan was and what Melinda was planning to do.
Paige: You can't be serious, she said looking at Melinda. They lie and keep secrets till it is too late. We have found that ourselves 20 years ago. They cannot be trusted.
Melinda: So I have been told. But we are not 20 years later. They have told me that they have learned from their mistakes all those years ago and this will not go the same way as it did back then, she argued. Paige just looked at her and then turned around to check on Phoebe. Melinda stared around to her family, who was watching her and she never felt this alone as she did at this moment.
She took a teleportation potion from her pocket. 'I'm sorry that you all feel this way, but I believe that this is the way to save the world or at least what is left of it.' She threw the potion and was gone.
Chris: I'm going to get her. We need to talk about this.
Leo: Maybe it is wise to leave her be for the moment. She will come around. Besides she will need to power of three to do the spell with the Avatars and as long as you guys don't agree then she can't do anything.
Manor
Melinda orbed in and sat down at the dinner table. She felt a migraine coming up and needed to lie down for a minute. She felt terrible. She didn't understand why her family was so hardcore against it.
All the problems they had would be solved in an instant. She was thinking about this, when her whole family orbed in to have an intervention with Melinda. She looked up at her family and wanted to teleport herself away, because she knew what was coming. She got up and wanted to walk away, but her mother stopped her.
Piper: Sit down. We need to talk!
Melinda: Why? I already know what you all going to say. Nobody listens to me, so why should I listen to you.
Leo: Honey what has got in to you. Why are you fighting us all about this? Melinda didn't look at her father. 'Why are you so willing to let the Avatars and take it over.
Melinda: Because I'm sick of it, she yelled at her father. I'm sick of being a witch and be afraid, if I'm going to die today or tomorrow. I'm sick of the pain in the world and the suffering. I just want it to stop and till now I'm the only one who is come up with a solution, but nobody supports me with it.
Piper: Because we know how they work. Sweetie, listen to me. We are not undermining your decision, but you have to be realistic. We cannot let this happen again. They have become more powerful in the last 20 years and we can like the last time, not wait till we find out, that people are missing. The world seems bad now, but at least people have feelings and if they are suffering, they know why they are suffering. You cannot go through with this. Please understand where we coming from. We have dealt with them.
Wyatt: Besides sis, you need the Power of Three to do the spell and I and Chris aren't doing it…sorry.
Alpha: There is no need for that, he said. Everybody turned around to see three Avatars standing there.
Paige: Alpha and Gamma and who might you be? she asked to the one she didn't recognize.
Delta: My name is Delta.
Paige: Did you know that the one before you killed my ex and I was told, that one for the many wasn't such a big sacrifice.
Alpha: Paige, what happened with Agent Brody, was unfortunate, but he killed one of the Avatars and she react in self-defense. That is hardly murder, like you call it.
Phoebe: That is not true, she said weakly. I remember that I had a vision of Beta, throwing a lighting ray thing at Kyle, before the potion even hit the ground.
Alpha: Everybody. We shouldn't be dwelling in the past. Like we said, we have learned from our mistakes and are here to redeem ourselves and prove to you that we are completely good now.
Piper: Funny. I thought the Avatars were beyond good and bad? She asked with sarcasm? So you are admitting that you were evil when you were tricking us to create Utopia?
Alpha: Piper, you are twisting my words.
Piper: No, I'm just referring to what you just said and how it really is…
Alpha: Melinda, before we go I just want to let you know, that for the change we are no need of the Power of Three. You have shown such a great deal of power that it will be enough to complete the transition.
Wyatt: That is why you have come to Melinda alone and not to all of us! Alpha looked surprised by this reaction and had for a moment nothing to say and stared one more time directly at Melinda and shimmered out. Wyatt turned to his sister. 'I know you don't want to hear it right now, but you cannot let this happen. You cannot let the Avatars take over'.
Chris: We understand that you want the suffering of the world to stop, but don't forget, without you it would have been worse. If you hadn't stopped the Full Moon, then there was nothing left to save. Please Melinda, think about this. I know it sounds great, no more suffering, no more demons, but don't forget, not all demons are bad. Think about Bianca. I will lose her, after the Avatar has done their thing.
Melinda: Bianca! I hadn't even thought about her yet.
Chris: Indeed. Also all the other magical beings will be gone. Everything will be controlled by the Avatars. Melinda looked shocked by this idea.
The doorbell rang and Paige walked over to open the door and came back with Jake.
Jake: Hi, he said a bit unsure seeing everybody looking serious and all around Melinda. 'Is this a bad time?
Piper: Actually it is Jake. Was there something special you needed?
Jake: I just came by to see how it is with my girl? He said smiling at Melinda.
Leo: I think it is a sign that you are here Jake. He said looking thoughtful.
Piper: What are you thinking, she said looking at her husband.
Leo: Well it is something Alpha said. That the Power of Three is not needed and that Melinda can do it on her own. She was also the only one, who was strong enough to break the curse of the Moon.
Can we not do the same thing like with the moon and change maybe the wording of the spell and make sure that the positive energy she had sent to the Moon, flows over the whole world and make everybody positive and normal again.
Melinda: If we do that, then what are we different from the Avatars? If we make everybody happy, then it would seem like the killing or the loss they had, will be gone, erased.
Leo: No that is not what I meant. Elders have the ability to take pain away from people and let the pain come back slowly so they are ready to feel everyday a little more, but able to deal with it. If we can do something like that? Then the world will still be a mess, but a better mess, like it was before all this happened. Do you understand a bit what I'm trying to say?
Melinda: I think so. If we do the spell, people will not forget, but will be able to coop better with their situation then the way they are dealing now with it.
Leo: Yes. Exactly!
Melinda: That doesn't sound that bad, dad! Good one!
Leo: Thanks honey, he said and hugged his daughter.
Wyatt: Ok. Looks like we have to start writing a spell fast.
Leo: Jake is it possible for you to go to the woods and to the same place and create a circle with the witches of the First order and wait for us there, till we have everything ready.
Jake: I guess. He looked at Melinda, who nodded and he nodded back and walked to the door to leave.
Melinda: Walked behind him and made him turn, so she could kiss him and when she let go, he was completely red of the blushing when he looked up and saw the whole family watching them. 'See you soon, she said and let him out and turned to her family.' Ok let's do this. Mom, Aunt Paige and Phoebe and I, will work on the spell. You two go to the Elders and tell them what is going on and what we are planning to do. Dad you go to Magic School and find the spell for the Avatars, if they attempt to stop us.
Leo: That's my girl he said to Melinda. Guys can you guys orb me to Magic School? Wyatt and Chris walked over to their father and orbed out. The women stayed behind and came al sitting by Phoebe, who still didn't look so well.
Woods
One hour later they orbed all in at the circle where Melinda not a week ago, broke the spell of the witch, who had caused all this trouble. The old women were already waiting for them. Like before Melinda stepped in the circle and her family stood behind the older women also holding hands and creating their own circle by holding hands. It cracked literally with energy of all those powers combined. They were just about the ritual when the Avatars shimmered in.
Alpha: Melinda? What are you doing? You cannot use your powers for something else. Otherwise there will not be enough to make the change.
Melinda: There will be no change. We have found another way to make sure that the world will be better again.
Alpha: That is impossible. If it was possible we would have suggested that as first.
Melinda: Or, you wanted to control the whole world again.
Alpha: We have explained to you, that this is not the case. We thought that you agreed with us and we have been preparing us for you.
Melinda: Sorry that you had to go through all that trouble, but like I said, we have found another way.
Alpha: Melinda, please think about this. You have no idea what will happen if you cast that spell. It can backfire, but what we are offering is a guarantee.
Melinda: What will happen to Bianca? She is the girlfriend of my brother and she is a Demon? What will happen to all the magical beings?
Alpha: Well the magical beings will not be needed anymore, because everything will be perfect in Utopia. For Bianca we can't do anything unfortunately.
Melinda: As good as it sounds, I think I will keep with my own solution.
Alpha: I'm very sorry to hear that, but we have come too let this pass us by. We have waited patiently 20 years for this day and now it is so close, we can't let it go. I'm terribly sorry for what I'm about to do. But before he could do anything, her family had broken the circle and stood all beside Melinda. They all took a potion out of their pockets and showed it to the Avatars.
Gamma en Delta backed away from Alpha, who still stood there, looking at the Charmed Family and to the potions and at last his eyes stayed with Melinda again.
Alpha: Melinda. Please this is the best solution. Please give us a change.
Melinda: Hmmm i wonder what you were planning to do, when you just apologized for what you were about to do and then chickened out when you saw the Avatar killing potions.
Alpha closed his eyes for a moment and another 12 Avatars appeared and without the witches of the First order, the Charmed family was outnumbered.
Alpha: Again I'm terribly sorry for this. This is not the way, but we have no choice. If we don't act now, we will never get a chance like this.
Chris hurried quickly to the witches of the First order and orbed them to safety and when he orbed back. It looked like a battle field. His Aunt Phoebe was lying on the ground and had no power to do anything, so he ran over to her and orbed her to the witches of the First order. When he orbed back, lighting rays were flying through the open space and he saw his brother shooting white lights out of his hand and Melinda and his mother were holding hands and with the other they focused on one Avatar and together they were strong enough to blow up one of them. He quickly threw out his hand to one of the Avatars, who was about to attack his Aunt Paige, who was orbing in and out and attacking and defending. His dad was hiding and he ran over to the middle of the battlefield and with his telekinesis, he threw an Avatar away from his brother, who was about to attack. Potion flew through the air and most of the Avatars were vanquished. Gamma and Delta both of them got hit.
The other Avatars who were left, stop fighting, because they became weaker and weaker and had almost no power to stand up against the Charmed Family.
Melinda: Hey Alpha, catch she yelled and threw the potion, but Alpha was about to shimmer out, but Chris used his powers to make sure that the potion got quicker by Alpha then he could shimmer out and he also got hit. The two unknown Avatars who still stood fell to their knees, feeling very weak and shimmered out just in time.
Paige: That was fun, she said grinning.
Chris: I'll better go get everybody from the hiding place. He orbed out and in a few seconds he orbed back in, with the older women and Phoebe.
Silvia: Let's do the spell. They all nodded and took their place as before.
The older women started to chant again in a strange language, which Melinda recognized from the last time. Again she felt the power slowly coming her way through the earth and like before the power hit her hard and she had to put her nails in the ground not to fall. When she took the power, she was glowing like before and her whole family was staring at her in awe. They hadn't seen anything like this in all those years that they have been witches. Melinda got up.
Melinda: Can I the spell please she said gently to Silvia, who gave her a piece of paper in her hands. She closed her eyes and focused that things would be like they were before and started the chant:
'I call upon the magic of the light.
Away with anger, stress and strife
and please stop this fight.
I ask for luck, charm and smiles,
And to embrace life's joyous miles.
Bless the world with happiness,
and take away the worlds sadness'
They all tuned in and they all said the spell 3 times together, before Melinda closed her eyes and let all the positive energy she had go and they had to break the circle to close their eyes, because she was shining so bright, that nobody could see a thing anymore. And like it started, it ended. Melinda kneeled and started to ground herself on the cold earth. Everything was back to the way it was.
Dear Dairy,
What a week. So many things happened. Last week we saved the world of that crazy Moon, but with a cost. People hadn't forgotten what happened to them or what they did. So when the spell was broken, the world was still a huge mess.
I felt terrible. I didn't want to outside or watch TV. I couldn't bare so much pain at once. But it can always be worse I guess. I saw Aunt Phoebe and she looked awful. I can't imagine how it must have been for her, to feel all those emotions. On the other side I'm also proud of her. Even with all the pain, she still wanted to help and be useful. I always knew that I came from a line of strong woman, but to see it and feel it is so totally bizarre.
This week I felt weak and not worthy of being a Charmed One. I hated myself for acting the way I did, but somehow I couldn't stop myself….so weird….like I was watching myself go against my entire family and I could slap myself, but like a said, the words kept coming out of my mouth.
Avatars came and asked me to change the world to Utopia. They had really good arguments and for a while I really wanted to do it, because it would have solved all the problems at once. Till Chris pointed out about Bianca. His demon girlfriend and about all the other magical beings, that would vanish. Somehow that did it and the whole idea of changing the world to Utopia, somehow didn't sound so fun anymore. Thanks to something the Avatars told us, we were able to change the world in our own way back to how it was.
They told us, that the Power of Three wasn't needed to make the change. That I had enough power of my own to do it and dad came up with the idea to use that and the witches of the First order to do the spell.
Jake the sweetheart, who came by to see how it was with his girl (meaning me hihihihi) and he arranged that the witches would be ready for us.
Stupid Avatars. They tried to stop us, but weren't a match for us, because we had some Avatar vanquishing potions ready for them. They will not be bothering us soon and after I'm done writing in you I will write in the Book of Shadows about them. Mom did it also in the past and I feel like I have to do it also.
Again we called upon the raw power of mine and sent out all the positive energy I had in me to the world.
Now all is normal again. I have another mission. John. That demon is pissing me of and I haven't forgot what he tried to do in the last couple of weeks and I will find a way to vanquish his sorry ass.
I'm beat and need a good night sleep.
Speak to you soon,
Melinda
