Next one will come al lot this chapter I played a bit with some elements of the episode "Prince Charmed".

Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed or any of its characters.

Suddenly they heard Piper scream: "Wyatt!"

Melinda immediately grabbed a knife from the countertop and orbed to Wyatt's room. A demon in a black robe stood over the cradle of her brother, who was screaming. He was holding some sort of wand. Without thinking she ran towards him with the knife in her hand. The demon let the wand fall on the ground as she stabbed him in the back. A fireball appeared in his hand, but before he could throw it Chris orbed in and threw him into the cupboard with his telekinesis. Well the demon tried to get up, Melinda run towards him and pushed him back to the ground. Then she stabbed him multiple times, before he exploded. As she looked up, the young witch saw her parents and aunt standing in the doorway, all looking at her in shock. Piper walked to the cot to pick Wyatt up and then cradled him in her arms. A small ache shot through Melinda, but she immediately pushed the pain away. It was in no way useful to be jealous. But she couldn't deny it hurt that her mother was still looking at her in disgust, well that monster-to-be had all her love. Suddenly Melinda realized how she must have looked. She was sitting in the middle of a mess that was a baby room well she was covered in demon blood. The cupboard the demon had landed on was broken, there was a scorch mark on the wall and demon blood on the carpet.

"Are you alright?" Chris asked kneeling next to his little sister. Physical she was, so she nodded. Even though her mother looked at her like she was some kind of monster.

"Piper, don't worry. I will clean up the room", Melinda tried to make it right.

When she walked towards Piper, she turned a little bit, so Wyatt would be further away from her.

"Good", Piper said cool.

"I just saved you son. Why do you treat me like a monster?" Melinda said irritated to her mother.

"Have you seen yourself fight? You looked like demon, fighting like that with a kitchen knife."

"So what. I had to learn how to fight to stay alive and that I fight like a demon is kind of true. It was after all Bianca who taught me how to fight."

"Well I bet you mother will be very proud of you", she said sarcastically.

That was when Melinda couldn't stand it anymore. "Chris, let's go. Maybe we can find something out about this demon." Then she and her brother orbed to of the house.

– At the Attic –

Piper glanced at her son that was safely in this father's arms, before she continued to flip through the Book, trying to find the demon that attacked Wyatt, but without result. What worried her the most was that this might the order of demons Leo had told her about? Like many they were after Wyatt, but if the Elders know about it, they must be very dangerous.

"Piper, that was cruel to say", Phoebe said.

"What?" Piper looked at her sister.

"What you said to Melissa. You know she lost her mother. Besides that she and Chris saved Wyatt."

"I know, but they frustrated me. One moment they seem to be helpful and the next they look more like a couple of demons."

"Well, they still don't deserve it to be treated that way."

Paige walked in the room. "Let's worry about our whitelighters later. They probably won't show their face quite some time. So let's focus on the demon at hand", she said looking over Pipers shoulder. "Did you find anything?"

"No. Let's hope we just vanquished it."

"Famous last words", they suddenly heard Chris say, how appeared in a cloud of lights. Immediately Melissa materialized next to him.

"You are back quickly", Piper reacted.

"Well keeping Wyatt safe is more important, than... It just doesn't matter", Melissa said.

"We asked around in the underworld and found out who are after Wyatt", Chris said.

"It's a demonic cult called the Order", Chris continued, "They used to be very powerful, till their leader was killed and they think he is reincarnated."

"Wyatt?"

"He is so young, that they can turn him evil", Melissa said.

"So this is what turns him? The demon you have been looking for all this time?" Paige said.

"Maybe, but I don't think this is what happened in our timeline. Since he was raised by you." She nodded to Piper and Leo "That wouldn't happen if he had been turned by the Order they would keep him."

"They should be easy to vanquish with the Power of Three."

"Leo, do you watch Wyatt?" Piper asked.

"You're sure, you will be alright?"

"Chris and I will be there too. So don't worry", Melissa said.

"No way, Mel. You're not going", Chris said. "These demons are way too dangerous."

"I fought thousand times more powerful beings. So shush."

"No." Chris gave his little sister a stern look. "Besides it's better if there are two people watching Wyatt."

"Fine", Melissa snarled.

Chris took Phoebes hand and Paige hers and they orbed out.

– – – – – – – –

She and Leo were left behind in an awkward silence. Melinda knew very well how much Leo distrusted her. Not that she liked him better then he liked her.

"Let's go downstairs. Wyatt probably would like to play with his toys."

"Fine, but you stay away from him."

"Fine." Well she said that Melinda grabbed the Book of Shadows and followed Leo to the conservatory. Her father and brother already sat on the ground, playing with some cars. She sat on the bench and made herself comfortable, flipping through the book. By now she knew it practically from inside out, so it didn't take long before she lost her concentration. Staring at her little family scene, she realized that she never had that. At least not with her father. He would leave even before she was born and never be there for her. How hard hadn't she tried to get his attention? But he always ignored her. He had always missed the important moments in her life.

Suddenly a red car appeared on the book. She took up the toy and smiled at Wyatt. "Do you want to play?"

The toddler nodded happily.

"Wyatt, Melissa is really busy reading. So she can't play with you", Leo said, giving her nasty look. The one she used to get when she continued nag for his attention. Then he stood up and walked towards her taking the toy out of her hand.

The rain was pouring down. Well a seven year old Melinda sat with her back against the pillar of the Golden Gate Bridge. Tears mixing with the raindrops. Her hair was still in a bun and she had makeup on her face. It was the day she had her first ballet performance. The most perfect day and it had been ruined by her dad, who again had forgotten his promise to come.

Blue lights appeared and Chris materialized in front of her. He was wearing a raincoat and had an umbrella in his hand. Holding it above her head, he sat down next to her. "You know that Dad is just an ass."

"You can't say that. It's a bad word."

"Well it is truth anyway. Dad should have been there to see you dance."

"Dad probably had to save the world or something, right. My performance isn't that important", the little girl said with a watery voice.

"It is. You practiced for months. You know, Mom is very proud of you."

"Really", she asked hopeful.

"Really. She told me. And I think you dance really well."

A watery smile appeared on her face.

"But don't tell anyone a said that. Or I will orb your teddy bear to China", Chris added quickly.

Melinda's short arms circled around her brother's torso. "Thank you, Chris", she murmured.

Chris freed himself from her arms. "Let's go home. Mom will be worried."

Leo looked at her surprised. Melinda wondered if it was the little scene between her and Chris that surprised him or that it was just the shock of seeing her memory.

"I'm sorry about your dad. No parent should abandon their child like that."

"Remember you said that."

"What do you mean? I will ever neglect Wyatt, will I?"

"No, but it's good to keep in mind that's all."
