I was ten years old at the time and Azmodon the king of worms was torturing me for spilling a vial of a potion he had been working on, it was a pretty big explosion that caused many demons to be killed and destroyed half of his laboratory.
“How dare toi touch my things, I have told toi once and I have told toi a thousand times, if toi touch my things I will beat you. Now get out of my sight toi worm.” Azmodon
“Yes, Sir” Boy (I was terrified at having made him angry but it seemed this time he was montrer mercy, of that I was somewhat grateful, but at the same time I was highly suspicious.)
Over the course of a week I kept hearing him talk about some grand plan he wants to put into action and I kept thinking what a joke he was. No one has ever killed the Charmed ones and no one ever will.
A jour later he walked into my small tanière, den and un-cuffed me from the mur and spoke to me in a calm voice.
“I am releasing you; get out before I change my mind. toi will find a stone arch down the hall. Touch it and toi will be transported to the surface world. Do not ask me why, I have much to do and little time to get it done. NOW GO” Azmodon
Ever since then I have not looked back, I was walking the streets of San Francisco looking for a couple of bucks ou just a small bite to eat. I got very lucky, a woman pushing a shopping chariot, panier found me huddled on a park bench and she took pity on me from the beginning. She showed me how to beg for money and she let me keep all of it, she taught me how to look and act pathetic which I found to be very helpful when a couple of local college kids saw me. They gave me 100 dollars and I remember being so happy that I ran back to the camp to tell her when I saw it. The camp was being attacked par demos and people were dying left and right. I saw her and she told me to run and do not look back but I did and that is when I saw a fireball hit her and she turned into a pile of dust before my eyes.
I remember crying like I never have before; I Lost a good friend and my mentor. It was 2 weeks since that happened and I still had 80 dollars so I negotiated with a local innkeeper and he let me stay for a week even though it would hurt him a little but he only charged me 60 dollars which was really nice of him.
I was left with 20 dollars so I went down to a local pizza place and I bought a large pizza ad I went back to the hotel and the owner greeted me and offered me a six pack of soda since he was going to be switching to diet, me and him ate pizza and drank soda while he asked me about how I got so bad into my current situation and I had to lie to him of course but he believed me.
Late in the night at around 10:00 I decided to go on a walk through a local alley way and that is when I saw it. A demon that stood 6 feet tall and he was harassing a woman who was apparently a witch and was trying to vanquish him with no success.
Then I saw them, the Charmed ones. The three of them looked so powerful and at the same time I was frightened par them.
“Step back now ou we will vanquish you. I mean it, no funny games” Piper
“Do toi think toi can defeat me, a couple of puny witches? Ha ha ha don’t make me laugh.” Demon
In less than a few minutes they read some kind of a funny sounding rhyme and the demon burst into flames.
Just as they were about to orb away I accidently tripped on some boxes and they heard me
“What was that noise?” Paige
“I don’t know, Paige go check it out. Phoebe and I will check out the book of shadows to figure out what demon that was.” Piper
“Be careful Paige, it could be a trap?” Leo
“I am fine, just go on without me.” Paige
They orbed out and one of them started walking towards the sound I made with a bottle in her hand filled with a purple fluid.
“Hello. Is anyone there? This is not funny, come out now ou toi could get hurt.” Paige
I was about to leave when I slipped and hit my head on the sidewalk and I felt arms pick me up gently and when I opened my eyes I saw what I thought was an angel.
“Are… are toi a… Angel?” Boy
“Lol, no I’m afraid toi are still in the land of the living, but thanks for the compliment.” Paige
“My head hurts, what happened to me?” Boy
“You hit your head pretty good, here let me check it.” Paige
I could feel her déplacer my hair around a little bit and then she paused and I was afraid because I still had scars from Azmodon flaying my scalp from spilling his potions.
“Who did this to you? Was it your parents?” Paige
I became terrified and tried to run
“It’s ok dude, no one is going to hurt you, toi are sûr, sans danger with me I promise.” Paige
“Demon, there is a demon here.” Boy
Cole walks up behind Paige and says to her
“Who is he, and why is he injured.” Cole
“He hit his head while trying to climb the side of the building.” Paige
“Should toi heal him, it looks serious.” Cole
“I was going to do that now.” Paige (She stretches her hand across my head and she tries to heal me, but I get scared and I feel power course thru me and I see Cole fly across the alley and as Paige runs to help him up I escape.)
I manage to get back to the hotel and she is unable to catch up.
“What the hell was, how did he do that? Could he be a witch?” Paige
“Unlikely, I could sense his power; it was much stronger than a witch’s power could ever be. But he doesn’t feel like a demon either. We should tell Leo about this.” Cole
“I agree, let’s get back to the house.” Paige
Paige orbs Cole back to the manor and the view shifts to the manor
“Paige toi got back, did toi ever find out what that noise was?” Piper
“Yes, it was a small boy. He looked terrified and he hit his head trying to climb up a building and Cole shimmered in which freaked him out and I think ou we think he might have powers.” Paige
“He did something to me and I flew back almost 30 feet into a brick wall, I am lucky to be alive.” Cole
“And did toi do anything to provoke him?” Phoebe
“No I swear it, I was just going to comfort him and he kept saying DEMON.” Cole
“Ok this is going to require a change of plans, we need to find out what his story is whether ou not he is an innocent we need to protect ou if he is some kind of a demon In disguise. Leo, can toi go ask the elders about him while I look in the book.” Piper
“Sure thing honey, do toi need anything from the store, I could stop there on my way back?” Leo
“Some pain and lait is all. But hurry up.” Piper
“Ok, I l’amour you” Leo
“I l’amour toi to” Piper
They Kiss briefly and he orbs out while piper and her sisters discuss the boy with Cole.
“Ok, so where did he run off to? I find it hard to believe he could go far, he looked badly malnourished. He also had scars on his scalp from what looked like an Athame. He might have been abused par his parents.” Paige
“Then we need to find him quickly, he could be dangerous in the frightened state he is in.” Phoebe
“Cole, do toi need a cold pack for your head.” Piper
“No, I’m fine. I just want to help find him. I don’t blame him for doing what he did; he was obviously terrified of me. But does that mean he could sense my demonic nature ou what.” Cole
“Its possible sweetie, but we need to find him before he does something he might regret.” Phoebe
Meanwhile back at the hotel I am opening my backpack and pulling out a small book, the one the demon found me with when I was born. It had funny or seals on the outside and several times I thought about pawning it but I could never bring myself to do it.
I could never read anything inside it, it was in Latin. I know because I went to a bibliothèque once and showed it to a librarian and she got all traverser, croix eyed and a dit she cannot read Latin.
I put it away and I lit a candle and I cracked open a bud light I swiped from college kids a few doors down. I didn’t really like the taste but I was doing it for my Friends who died.
The view shifts back to the manor and Leo orbs in and has a worried look on his face.
“We got a very serious issue, and it is a time sensitive one.” Leo
“What is it? Is it about the boy?” Piper
“Yes, apparently he is the last of his kind and toi guys have to protect him until he can receive his full powers.” Leo
“That’s it, Leo. Exactly what kind is he of?” Paige
“A Mage, Beings who command the forces of nature and can live for hundreds of years because of this connection and they are extremely powerful as children, when they become adults they are almost like gods.” Leo
“OK, that is almost too much to take in at one time.” Piper
“So that must be why he has the cuts all over him, Maybe a demon captured him and he found a way to escape.” Paige
“But, why is it toi never mentioned mages to us until now?” Piper
“They are extinct Piper, ou they should be. The world has not seen one for over 1000 years. So evil will do and use whatever it can to persuade him to turn.” Leo
“So we need to find him quickly, Phoebe go scry for his location while I prepare a knock out potion.” Piper
“I already know where he is at, the elders consider this to be a haut, retour au début priority and they gave me his location.” Leo
“Ok then I will go make a stun potion real quick then we can go.” Piper
Back at the hotel I am getting sleepy from the half bière I drank and I place it in the fridge and I tuck myself in and I leave the lights on but pull the covers over my head and I fall asleep
View shifts back to the attic and we see Piper holding the potion and all of the sisters and Cole orb in to the hotel lobby.
“I will ask the manager about a boy and see what I get.” Paige
“Excuse me, how may I help you? Are toi interested in a room?” Manager
“No, Actually I am with the department of social services and I am here about a boy toi seem to have donné residence to. Is he still here par any chance?” Paige
“Yes, but he will probably freak out when toi see him, I will just give toi the key to his room so he doesn’t blame me. He is a good kid, extremely thoughtful. That’s why I am taking a killing just so he can have a place to crash. I was going to call toi guys tomorrow so I am glad toi arrived now. It is room 228 and up on the seconde floor. I want toi to give this to him, I would rather he keep his money than I take it. Good Luck” Manager
“Thank toi sir, toi have been most helpful. And that is very sweet of toi to give him his money back.” Paige
Paige and Phoebe walks up to room 228 while Piper and leo stand guard near the door. Cole waits in the car.
“Ok here is the plan, I open the door and try to keep him calm while toi orb behind him and use the potion on him to stun him.” Phoebe
“Ok, but try not to screw it up. We cannot chase him all night.” Paige
Phoebe walks up to the door and puts the key card into the slot and it clicks unlocked and she gently and quietly opens the door.
She walks in and finds the room is spotless save for a few pop cans in the trash and a pizza box on the table, tableau with not a crumb left over. She walks over to the lit and notices I am fast asleep and then she notices the book on the table.
She opens it and she is dumbfounded as to what it says.
She walks over to me and gently shakes me awake and I stir and I pull the covers down slightly.
She shakes me again and I pull them off of me, I sit up with my eyes still closed and she giggles slightly and shakes me again.
“Wake up sleepy head, it’s time to get up.” Phoebe
“Are toi an angel? Because toi smell so pretty and your hair is so soft.” Boy
She giggles and says
“No, I am a friend of the woman toi met in the alley.” Phoebe
“Why, why did toi guys follow me? I just want to be left to myself. I didn’t do anything wrong, I swear it.” Boy
“I know toi didn’t, but young boys don’t belong in a hotel eating pizza. They belong with a family that can take care of them and give them happiness.” Phoebe
“Your… your… name is Phoebe, Right?” Boy
“How did toi know my name?” Phoebe
“I don’t know.” Boy
“You better get dressed, we got a warm meal for toi and some clean clothes.” Phoebe
“That demons stench is all over you, I’m not going with you.” Boy
Phoebe looks at me with a surprised look and then speaks
“How can toi smell him on me?” Phoebe
“I just can, now leave me be ou I will defend myself.” Boy
“We are not here to hurt you; we want to help toi out. Please come with me.” Phoebe
“NO!!!” Boy A violent gust of wind comes through the windows and knocks her off the lit and I stand up and grab my book and backpack ad just as I make it to the door a tall man and a short woman stand in front of it and they won’t budge.
“Let me go NOW!!!.” Boy
“Just try to relax; we are not going to let anyone hurt you. I promise.” Piper
“It’s ok, I know you’re scared. Just calm down and let us help you?” Leo
Just then I feel hands grab me from behind and that woman from the alley takes a bottle opens it and pours it down my throat and I feel myself pass out.
Time and l’espace seem to float away as I slumber
I start to wake up slowly and I have no idea where I am at.
“I think he is waking up, Piper go get Leo.” Paige
I see the lady from the hotel walk up to me and place her hand on my head with a cold rag and I try to pull my face away but she grabs the back of my head and she smiles at me.
“It’s ok, I’m not going to hurt you, I promise.” Phoebe
“Then why did toi guys drug me and bring me here. Just a social call?” Boy
“LOL, toi do have a sense of humor. We brought toi here because we think toi might have magical powers.” Phoebe
“Then just take them and kill me, and quit with this routine already. I know why toi are pretending to be them. So toi can lull me into a false sense of security then steal my powers so I cannot fight back.” Boy
She looks sad from my comment
“I am not a demon, I’m a witch. I can cast spells and I have the power to levitate and see into the future. Do toi know what powers toi have?” Phoebe
“I don’t have any powers.” Boy
“Then where did the gust of wind come from?” Phoebe
“How should I know, Maybe it was something toi did to trick me into feeling sorry for toi ou something.” Boy
“And why would I do that?” Phoebe
“I don’t know” Boy
Phoebe walks to Piper and Paige and just as she leaves I get the idea to run towards the door and just as I get there I hit some kind of a blue mur that disappears as soon as I quit touching it.
“Ouch, my head” Boy
“Do toi really think we would leave toi alone if we didn’t have a backup plan in place? We placed crystals all over to keep toi from leaving until we help toi get straightened out.” Cole
“Stay away, Phoebe help me. He’s going to kill me.” Boy
“No he’s not; he would never hurt toi ou anyone else. He is an angel. He won’t hurt toi I promise.” Phoebe
“He has blood on his hands, and he keeps looking at me in a funny way.” Boy
“I don’t have blood on my hands, they are clean see.” Cole
“Cole would never hurt you, I promise toi that. He is a good guy now.” Phoebe
I start to cry a little and I beg to them
“Please just let me go, I promise I won’t tell Azmodon ou anyone else what I’ve seen.” Boy
“Who is Azmodon?” Paige
“The demon who found me as a baby, He let me go a mois il y a and I managed to get out into the streets where a nice lady let me stay in her tent and after a week ou two she was killed along with all the other poor people and I have been out on the streets until I got to stay at a nice hotel.” Boy
Phoebe teared up and Paige was trying her best to hold it back and cole just sat there with no expression
“I drank a bière to honor her, she liked bud light. I found one near a bunch of college kids. I miss her so much.(At this point I am crying loudly and Phoebe holds me while Paige strokes my back and Piper walks in to figure out what happened.)” Boy
“Why is he crying, did toi freak him out again cole.” Piper
“No I swear, he is probably upset because of his Friends being killed par demons.” Cole
“What friends?” Piper
I manage to wipe away my tears and I speak
“She was a bum who lived in an old warehouse with a bunch of other bums and she gave me a place to stay and taught me how to beg for money and showed me stuff like how to sew together strips of fabric into clothes and stuff. I was running back accueil to montrer her a 100 dollars I was donné par a college dorm and I saw them being mutilated par demons and she told me to run while a ball of feu hit her and she died.” Boy
“Her name was Margaret and she like bud light and chameau cigarettes. I bought her some for her birthday with some change I managed to find and she was so happy. She was like a mom to me.” Boy
“It sounds like toi l’amour her very much; it was a very good thing of her to give her life to save you. She must have loved toi to.” Piper
“And now she’s gone and I am so scared and I don’t know what to do.” Boy
“You poor, sweet boy. We are here to help you. Why don’t toi go upstairs with phoebe and she can help toi take a bath. It always relaxes me and toi can even have bubbles in it.” Piper
“Ok, thank toi very much. I am so sorry for attacking you. I didn’t know toi were good. (I run up to cole and I hug him).” Boy
“It’s ok little guy, I am not mad at you. If anything I thought toi got me pretty good, toi should take a little pride in it.” Cole
“That is the sweetest thing I have ever seen, Cole toi look like toi are about to cry.” Paige
“I’m fine, I just got something in my eye is all.” Cole
I walk upstairs and Phoebe comes in with me and asks me how hot I want the water to be.
“I am not sure; my back hurts if it is too hot. I think warm would be fine.” Boy
“Ok, just let me add some soap to it… There all done now I will go out and let toi get undressed and toi just holler at me so I can help get your back clean.” Phoebe
“Ok, thank toi for helping me.” Boy
“It’s no problem at all.” Phoebe
She walks out and closes the door and I kick my shoes off and get undressed and walk into the tub and I feel the searing white hot pain that follows. My flesh on my back exposed I wince in agony and the only thing to keep me from passing out is the memory of her sweet face and the nice things she a dit to me.
After a half an heure she opens it gently and asks me if I need help with my back. I don’t answer mainly from pain
“Do toi need help with your back?” Phoebe
“…..” Boy
She walks in and crouches down suivant to the tub and she starts to wet a scratch pad and starts working over my neck which feels good but then she does it on my upper back.
“Ouch it hurts, please stop. PLEASE.” Boy
“I am sorry but I have to get this dirt off of toi if toi want to be clean.” Phoebe
The water behind me starts to turn rose and she notices
“Oh my god what is that?” Phoebe
She stops and picks me up gently and she screams at the sight of my disfigured back.
“OH MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? WHY DIDN’T toi TELL ME TO STOP?” Phoebe
“I tried to, but toi wouldn’t listen.” Boy
“PIPER… LEO… PAIGE… GET IN HERE HE NEEDS HEALING.” Phoebe
Leo runs up and Piper and Paige is behind him.
“What happened, WHO DID THAT TO HIM?” Paige
“OH MY GOD, toi POOR BOY. I AM SO SORRY. LEO HEAL HIM NOW” Piper
“I’m on it(He heals me and the skin stretches back in place and it no longer hurts .) There toi go. I cannot heal him all the way.” Leo
“Why not?” Piper
“I don’t know, but he needs ointment on it ou he will get an infection.” Leo
Phoebe apologizes to me and as she brushes her hand on a scar she gets a premonition.
(I bump into a table, tableau with a freshly made batch of Firepetal jus, jus de and it spills and Azmodon takes his infernal whip and hits me ten times)
Phoebe snaps out of it and she is crying hysterically and her back is bleeding badly and she has the same marks as I do
“OH MY GOD, THAT SICK BASTARD, HE DID THIS TO toi DIDN’T HE?” Phoebe
“Yes, but only because I was careless and ruined one of his potions.” Boy
After Leo heals her and she calms down a little She grabs me and tells me
“There is nothing that a sweet and innocent boy could ever do to deserve to be beaten with a whip like that. What he did was wrong and unspeakable. It was a cowardly and inhuman thing to do and I am so sorry that he did that to you.” Phoebe
(She hugged me hard and I was sobbing a little and Piper spoke)
“Maybe we should give him and phoebe a few minutes to calm down.” Piper
Leo, Piper and Paige walked out and Phoebe kept hugging me and I was trembling from the overload of emotions that I had no experience with.
I kissed her on the forehead and she looked confused.
“What was that for?” Phoebe
“I like you” Boy
“Lol, I can see we are going to need to talk with piper on that subject.” Phoebe
“What subject? I just a dit I like toi is all. Besides, I don’t have a clue why toi are so defensive about it all the sudden. All I did was Kiss toi on the forehead. It’s what Margaret did to calm me down, it made me feel happy.” Boy
She smiled at me and Kissed me back and I giggled a little
“I need to wash your back now, ok?” Phoebe
“Ok, be careful though.” Boy
“I promise.” Phoebe
She washes my back and I feel at peace, except when she touches an exposed muscle and it makes me twitch a little.
After I am done she walks out for a bit and comes back with some clothes and places them on the lit and tells me when I am ready I should get dressed for dinner.
I get out and carefully dry off and i notice there is no shirt.
I get dressed and walk down the hall and she catches me with a medical kit and has me go into her room.
“Phoebe, what’s wrong with him exactly. I heard he got beaten ou something.” Cole
“It was Azmodon, he beat him like a rag doll over a spilled potion because he was trying to tidy up his den.” Phoebe
“That is awful, I hope it doesn’t hurt him too much.” Cole
“He bled in the tub, because I cleaned his back too hard and he wouldn’t explain it to me” Phoebe
“He was probably trying to act brave; He probably has a crush on you.” Cole
“I think he might, he kissed me in the tub. Told me he loved me and a dit his friend did that to him to calm him down. But he did not say it to my face so I think maybe he was embarrassed to admit it.” Phoebe
“Sounds like I have competition, I need to step up my game a bit then.” Cole
“Lol, just don’t mention it in front of him. I don’t want toi embarrassing him any plus than he has been.” Phoebe
“I promise” Cole
I walk in and Phoebe asks me to sit on the edge of the lit and she starts to rub some ointment on my back and it soothes the pain instantly, but it is really because she is doing it but I will not admit it to her.
“How does that feel, am I pressing too hard?” Phoebe
“No, it feels wonderful. Thank You.” Boy
“Ok I need to bandage toi up now so just stand up and go to the side of the bed.” Phoebe
I do what she asked and I feel her hands pressing onto my back as she applies a bandage to me and I feel at peace
“There toi go, all set. Here is a chemise I picked out for you. Piper made some Burgers and French fries and Paige wanted to have a quick chat with you.” Phoebe
“Thank you, (I hug her and she jumps a little and I gently Kiss her on her cheek and she giggles slightly and I walk out and close her door).” Phoebe
“You see, I told toi he likes you. Do I hear wedding bells?” Cole
“Cole, toi are such a pervert, Lol. I will have to talk to Piper to get her opinion. He might just be jouer la comédie affectionate. I read that when kids are taken out of a bad situation they tend to get very affectionate and in some cases attached to the person who did it. It is a normal defense to the pain he is going through.” Phoebe
I walk downstairs and Paige greets me at the end of the steps.
“Hey, tiger. Why don’t we have a quick chat? I wanted to ask toi about your book.” Paige
“It’s not for sale.” Boy
“Lol, I don’t want to buy it silly, I was just curious if toi have ever tried to read it?” Paige
“Once, I went to a bibliothèque and asked a librarian. She told me she didn’t speak old Latin.” Boy
“So I guess toi have had no luck lire it then?” Paige
“No, but I bet Phoebe could. She is super smart and pretty.” Boy
Paige cracks a smile and looks to Piper
“I am starving, could I get some nourriture now, Please.” Boy
“Sure, salut piper is that grub done yet.” Paige
“Yes, Tell Phoebe to come down and ask her if Cole is staying.” Piper
A few minutes later Paige walks down with Phoebe and she looks so gorgeous and so confident
We sit at the table, tableau and I am sitting suivant to Piper and Phoebe
“I made burgers and fries, I have pepsi and some root beer. Help yourself” Piper
“Thank you, I am starving.” Boy
“Hey Piper could I get a Pepsi please.(I run up to the fridge and Piper seems taken aback and I rush back and hand it to Phoebe with a smile and I say)” Phoebe
“Here toi go, Enjoy” Boy
“Lol, What was that all about?” Piper
“Thank toi so much, that was very sweet of toi to do.” Phoebe
“Hey little man, could toi get me a Pepsi?” Paige
“I guess.” Boy
“I could use a Pepsi myself, If toi don’t mind” Leo
I run and grab them and give one to Leo and Paige and I sit down.
I eat the whole burger and I eat everything off of my plate and I get up and I offer to take Phoebe’s plate into the cuisine and I wash them and I walk over to phoebe.
“Would toi like to sit with me?” Boy
“Sure, why not? I just need to talk to Piper real quick then I will rejoindre toi ok.” Phoebe
“Ok, don’t take too long. I am going to go look at my book.” Boy
She giggled and I helped her up which put a look of amusement on Leo and Piper as well as Paige
I go sit in the living room and she talks to Piper
“I have a big problem; I think he has a crush on me. In the tub he kissed me on the forehead and told me he liked me and when I was putting the ointment on he kissed me on the cheek and told me I was beautiful.” Phoebe
“Well, maybe he is just getting attached because toi helped him.” Piper
“The thing with grabbing toi a pop and almost tackling piper seemed a tad obsessive to me. And he almost complained about having to get me and leo a pop. But he got toi one like it made him happy. Maybe he does have a crush on you; toi should explain to him why it would never work out.” Paige
“I agree with Paige, but toi need to do it easy and in a caring way. If his s’embrasser toi is bothering toi then toi shouldn’t have to put up with it.” Leo
“He is probably just expressing an emotion he doesn’t understand. He was with a demon his whole life. toi should let this play out for awhile until we can figure out what is going on.” Piper
I was sitting there trying to figure out what my book a dit when Phoebe and her sisters plus Leo walked in and Phoebe sat beside me.
“Honey, could we talk to toi for a minute Please?” Phoebe
“Yeah sure, anything.” Boy
“I need to ask toi an important question, and I need toi to be honest.” Phoebe
“Ok, I will try to answer.” Boy
“I won’t get mad ou make fun of toi nor will my sisters. I just need toi to be honest with me; toi don’t need to be embarrassed about it. Do toi have a crush on me?” Phoebe
“What is a crush?” Boy
“Well, A crush involves admiring someone from a sûr, sans danger distance. toi feel a hugely powerful emotion, stronger than anything you've felt before. toi obsess over this person. toi would die for them. toi think about them constantly. toi are thrilled when toi are near them and miserable when toi are away from them. toi desperately want to tell the person how toi feel - but are frightened of it at the same time.” Phoebe
“I am not sure, maybe toi should go away tomorrow and we can see if I am miserable with toi gone.” Boy
Piper and Leo let out a good belly laugh and Paige keeps herself from giggling
“Lol, Alright. But do toi think about me constantly ou would toi die for me?” Phoebe
“I just met you, I wouldn’t need to die for toi because I wouldn’t let toi come to harm to begin with.” Boy
Now Piper and Leo are smiling and Paige has a tear down her cheek
“You are just too cute, how would toi be able to protect me? What if I was half way across the world on a trip with cole, would toi still be able to protect me?” Phoebe
“Yes, I l’amour you. toi remind me of the nice lady that would visit me in the underworld. She was a good Demon, she didn’t hurt any innocents ou anything. She brought me bits of nourriture and sang to me softly while stroking my head. But she had to quit because Azmodon would have flayed me and her Alive.” Boy
Leo and Piper had a tear down their faces and Paige was sobbing a little and Phoebe had a tear forming in her eye.
“She was like a mommy to toi wasn’t she? Is that how toi see me?” Phoebe
“Yes and I loved her very much but now I l’amour toi even more, I wouldn’t be sad if toi went away for a short time because I know I can keep toi safe.” Boy
Phoebe was tearing up at the words I gave to her.
“The old mommy taught me some magic, she told me it was something written in my book. I think she called it a spell. She a dit only I have the power to cast it and whoever I cast it on would be immortal for a short time. She a dit it will take a lot out of me to do it.” Boy
“Can I see this spell toi are talking about?” Phoebe
“Of course, I want to montrer toi my book.” Boy
“I would l’amour to see it, is it ok if everyone looks at it?” Phoebe
“If toi say it is alright then I don’t mind, just not cole. The book would try to hurt him if he touched it.” Boy
I walk over and pick the book out of my bag and a grab a piece of beef jerky and I sit back down suivant to phoebe and I open it up to the middle and I montrer her the spell.
“You place your hand here and i place mine their and it will keep toi from harm. For awhile anyways,” Boy
“How long will it protect me?” Phoebe
“For a day, I think. I don’t know how to read it so I cannot cast it.” Boy
“It’s ok, toi will learn some day.” Phoebe
“Do toi have any other cool spells in there?” Piper
“I am not sure; I can’t read latin so I have not been able to figure it out. But I did cast a spell from here once. I conjured a blue rose.” Boy
“Could toi conjure one for me?” Phoebe
“Of course I can, I just need a plain leaf and a twig.” Boy
Piper and Leo are amazed at all the images in my book and after a few moments Paige comes back with a leaf and a twig and hands them to Phoebe.
“Here toi are, one leaf and one twig. Fresh from the backyard.” Paige
“Thank You.” Boy
“I need a piece of paper and a pen, let’s go to the table, tableau in the dining room.” Boy
So Piper gets me a piece of paper and a pen and we walk into the living room and I get to wrok drawing a perfect cercle and I duplicate the spell joint, joint d’étanchéité exactly.
“So what is the cercle toi are drawing?” Piper
“A spell seal, it focuses the magic and amplifies it, it also allows me to transmute the twig and leaf into a rose. Watch” Boy
I place the twig and leaf on the cercle and I clap my hands together and touch them to the cercle and it glows bright blue.
“Oh my god, that looks dangerous. We better get back.” Phoebe
“it’s okay, it won’t hurt you. It’s just magic. WATCH!” Boy
The twig and leaf start to melt and change into a deep blue rose with a gorgeous green stem.
“Here toi go Phoebe, a blue rose.” Boy
“This is so beautiful, thank toi so much. What’s the matter toi look tired?” Phoebe
“I am a little, I’ll be alright. I just need to rest for a minute.” Boy
“Does it always take energy from toi to cast a spell?” Piper
“Just at night, when the sun is not out.” Boy
“That was a very cool trick but toi should be careful, it took a lot out of toi just to make a rose. But toi did a very good job. I am proud of you.” Phoebe
“Yeah that definitely tops Prue’s summoning spell, Can toi teach me how to do it?” Paige
“Sure, just do what I did. toi will get it on the first try. I promise.” Boy
“Do toi ever get tired during the jour when toi use magic?” Leo
“No just at night, I am not sure why.” Boy
“Are toi tired for bed? I could tuck toi in if toi want?” Phoebe
“Please, can toi read me a story?” Boy
“I would be happy to, how about Hansel and Gretel?” Phoebe
“Ok, let’s go” Boy
Phoebe and I walk up the steps and once we are out of sight Piper hugs Leo and starts to cry.
“He is such a sweet boy; I need to talk to toi guys about him. I was thinking of having him stay here permanently. I could talk to Darryl and explain the situation to him. He has been so sweet and caring since we got him here and I don’t think I could ever tear him away from Phoebe. It would be devastating to him and her. He also needs to be in an environment where his powers can be nurtured and no mortal could provide that. If we give him up to social services he may never have the freedom to develop his powers. Would toi guys mind it at all if he stayed here with us?” Piper
“No sweetie, he is plus than welcome. It would be kind of fun to have a little rug rat running around causing mischief. Plus when he gets older he will add to our powers threefold and we could be unstoppable.” Paige
“Paige, His powers are the least of my concern. But I agree with you. It would be fun to have some noise in the house Besides, I could look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to teaching him about witchcraft and maybe he could teach us about Mage craft. What do toi think Leo?” Piper
“I think it would be wonderful, I could teach him the history of Magic and about personal gain and maybe even about his people and what they were like.” Leo
“We should talk to Phoebe first but I am saying yes now, I hope she does.” Piper
A few minutes later Phoebe walks down the steps and she has a tear in her eye.
“What’s the matter Phoebs?” Paige
“He is just so sweet and caring and he thinks of me as his mommy. Do toi guys know how many times I wish a child would call me that? Now I have one that loves me unconditionally and would probably die to keep me safe. That makes me so happy inside, to know he thinks of me so highly. I wish he could stay, I would be happy to be a part of his life.” Phoebe
“Actually Phoebe, I was just talking with Paige and Leo and that is what we are going to decide on. He doesn’t belong in the mortal world, and he loves toi so much that I think the best course of action is to adopt him. Raise him as an adopted member of the family and the things he could teach us and the things we could teach him. Would make any amount of trouble and difficulty worth it. I care about him almost as toi do Phoebe so I am saying the choice has to be yours.” Piper
“Then I say yes, yes. Without a doubt. We need to talk to Darryl to get it going but I want us to take him shopping tomorrow for some clothes.” Phoebe
“I agree, but try to keep him away from the toys. We want him to be a battle hardened mage not a wuss kid playing mighty morphin power rangers.” Paige
“Lol, Paige toi got some growing to do that’s for sure.” Piper
“Lol” Leo
“What, whatever. I just want the best for him. I intend on teaching him all the finer points on magic. Like how to blow up demons and Maybe, Just maybe one jour we can watch him kick the Sources cul, ass and send him packing with a vengeance.” Paige
“Here here, let’s go to lit now though.” Piper
Just then orbs appear and an elder orbs in
“Hello, how are toi all doing? I hope I am not disturbing toi all.” Sandra
“No, what’s wrong this time.” Piper
“Nothing thankfully, but the three of toi should know that tomorrow night he will receive his full powers. We have confirmed this through several sources; he will become a full mage par tomorrow night at Midnight. During a full moon, he must perform this ritual very carefully and he must do it alone. ou else he will become mortal.” Sandra
“Ok, kind of soon don’t toi think, he barely has come to terms with his powers and now toi want to add plus to the mix?” Phoebe
“This is not our doing, we had no idea that a mage would be born into the world. His powers will be legendary, as will his deeds. The four of toi will be his mentor, toi must guide him and protect him from the influence of evil and once his power is fully awakened he will not be able to be changed to a side again. If he is good at the ritual he will be good his entire life. Here is the scroll with our blessing’s. Take care of him like he was your own, our future may depend on it someday.” Sandra
She orbed out and Phoebe looks at the scroll then at Piper
“Did she just make all of this much plus difficult than it needed to be?” Phoebe
“Yes, but we will keep him good. He is already good as it is. Besides I can’t wait to wake him up tomorrow. Oh he is going to be so handsome when he grows up.” Paige
“Ok honey, I think I will wake him up. It would be better for me since he trusts me the most, I think if anyone else does it he will probably freak a little.” Phoebe
“Ok, but can I be there when he wakes up, I want to give him some demon vanquishing tips.” Paige
“I would like to be there so he knows I care for him too. And Leo since 3 votes against one toi got to be there when we wake him up to tell him the good news.” Piper
“Then I will just change my vote and make it unanimous. Besides I think he will be plus receptive of me once he has gotten a good night’s sleep.” Leo
“Ok, let’s go to lit before we stay up till midnight.” Piper
“Yeah, we could practice for a kid of our own.” Leo
“Or we could sleep and talk about it tomorrow night.” Piper
“Lol” Paige
“I am going to go to bed, Goodnight.” Phoebe
“Goodnight, I am tucking in too.” Paige
So the view shifts from night to jour and I slowly stir in my lit and I hear the door opening.
Four people walk in and I can tell they are Piper, Phoebe, Leo, Paige
“Good morning, time to get up, Rise and shine!” Piper
I jump up and Paige giggles at my speediness
“I got some wonderful news honey, how would toi like to stay here with us, forever?” Phoebe
“I would l’amour that plus than anything, besides I hate sleeping out in the rain and cold. It gets a bit too chilly for me.” Boy
“lol” Paige
“We want toi to stay here with us, and I can teach toi allot about magic and Leo can tell toi about what a mage is and what they used to do. Also one jour I promise toi we are going to find a way to find Azmodon, whatever it takes. He will pay for the way he treated you, but right now there is someone downstairs who wants to meet you. She is called Sandra and she is an elder, she is very anxious to meet you.” Piper
I run to Phoebe and I hug her then I run to Paige and give her a hug as well, I Hug piper and Leo and run downstairs as happy as I can possibly be.
“Hello, this is quite an honor. My name is Sandra. I am an elder. How are you?” Sandra
“I am ok, I am uncertain about things but I am very happy here. How are toi doing?” Boy
Sandra seems taken aback
“I am just fine, thank toi for asking. Why don’t we sit down and talk?” Sandra
“Ok, salut guys toi can quit spying now.” Boy
Piper Leo Paige and phoebe walk from the haut, retour au début step and they sit down suivant to me and me and Sandra talk
“So, I am sure toi have a ton of question and i will try to answer as many as I can.” Sandra
“What is it like to be an elder?” Boy
“Wow toi pick some tough ones don’t you? Ok it’s about helping people and coordinating the efforts of good so we get the maximum benefits with minimal costs ou consequences. It is very interesting; toi can orb and go anywhere. toi have a serious power boost. It can be fun at times.” Sandra
“That was a good question dude.” Paige
“What is my name?” Boy
Everyone fell silent except Sandra
“What would toi like it to be? It can be anything toi want” Sandra
“Phoebe, what would toi like to call me?” Boy
“I want to call toi whatever toi want to be called, after all a name is permanent.” Phoebe
“Jacob, I want my name to be Jacob.” Jacob
“Are toi sure, it will be yours forever. “ Sandra
“Yes, I want to be called Jacob.” Jacob
I sense something from Sandra.
“What are toi not telling me?” Jacob
“Wow, toi can read my mind. I thought toi had not developed that power yet. toi are a mage, and toi are promised a great deal of power and in order to get it toi must perform a ritual tonight at midnight under the full moon.” Sandra
“What kind of ritual?” Jacob
“A very special one, Phoebe could toi please montrer him the scroll?” Sandra
Phoebe hands it to me and I open it up.
“I understand” Jacob
“HOW? I thought toi could not read latin.” Piper
“I couldn’t last night, but now I can. It is very strange isn’t it?
Jacob
A question stirs in my mind.
“What happened to my people, I mean the other mages in the world?” Jacob
“They were killed par a vicious demon, a demon they were tricked into summoning; one jour soon toi will have the power to destroy the demon. Until then toi must help the sisters with their destiny. Then toi will be able to fulfill yours.” Sandra
“Will Mommy ever have a child besides me?” Jacob
Phoebe tears up and puts her hand on my shoulder
“All I can say is, yes she will.” Sandra
“What is my destiny right now?” Jacob
“To help the sisters vanquish the Arch-Demons.” Sandra
“What is the source?” Jacob
“A very evil being who is the source of all unhappiness and has power over evil.” Sandra
“Will Cole ever become human?” Jacob
Phoebe squeezed my shoulder and I could hear her cry
“That I do not know for sure, but I can say it is possible.” Sandra
“It was nice meeting you, would toi like a rose?” Jacob
Sandra smiled and nodded
Paige orbed me another leaf and twig and I drew the spell joint, joint d’étanchéité again and I performed the ritual turning the twig and leaf into a Red rose
“Here toi go, it’s a gift. Have a sûr, sans danger journey.” Jacob
“Thank you, toi are very sweet. Be safe” Sandra
She orbed out and Phoebe hugged me
“What is wrong mommy, did I make toi cry?” Jacob
“No, toi are just the most caring person I have ever met. Why were toi thinking about cole?” Phoebe
“I know toi l’amour him, I can feel it. If there is a way to make him human I promise toi I will do it myself, for toi mommy.” Jacob
Phoebe cried on my shoulder and I started to tear up
“Don’t cry mommy, it’s a good thing.” Jacob
“It is a very good thing, I am so proud of you. Would toi mind if Cole came down here now?” Phoebe
“No, not at all. He makes toi happy so I am happy.” Jacob
“He is so sweet and such a handsome boy.” Piper
“Yes he is, a very sweet boy.” Paige
“He does have a big heart, hopefully it stays that way.” Leo
“Cole, toi can come out now.” Phoebe
He shimmers in and I shiver a little bit until phoebe putts her hand on my shoulder and I calm down.
“Jacob has something to say to you, it is so sweet.” Phoebe
“Hey Jacob, listen no hard feeling about throwing me into a wall. I am fine, don’t worry about me.” Cole
“Soon toi will be better than fine, I know a way to make toi human.” Jacob
Cole is speechless and so is everyone else.
“What did toi just say?” Cole
“I know a way to make toi human; I looked it up in my book. It will take 7 days to make the potion but it will strip toi of your demonic side and cleanse your karma. So toi won’t feel guilty anymore.” Jacob
Cole started to cry and he hugged me
Everyone froze up but I hugged him back with a smile on my face.
“I promise toi I will do it. I just need some rare ingredients only toi can get safely.” Jacob
“Anything, just tell me what they are.” Cole
“Something called iron chardon and another plant called dragons blood plus a lock of Medusa hair. The hair can be found in china near a Buddhist temple. It is a plant of some kind. I am not sure. Let me go grab my book.” Jacob
I run to the living room and get my book and I sit down and flip through the pages until I find the potion recipe
“It is called the Turncoat Potion, A potion that turns a demon human and strips them of their powers and demonic nature’s. Also cleanses karma and it is permanent. No plus powers for you.” Jacob
“Looks like I can teach toi potion basics after all, it will be fun I promise.” Piper
“I will also need some quicksilver and a Harpies tongue. Some fennel and a plant called Pain Root.” Jacob
“I have never heard of it, are toi sure that is what it says.” Leo
“Yes, I would not lie and I am not wrong.” Jacob
“Ok ok, chill Jacob we believe you. I can see he has my snappy side down well. Do I really sound like that.” Piper
“Yes toi do piper.” Phoebe
“But we forgive you.” Paige
“I may know what he is talking about, the source keeps a strange plant near a cauldron that he says has roots that appear as if they are in pain, Maybe that’s what he is talking about.” Cole
“It has the power to kill and the power to restore life, depending on what it is mixed with.” Jacob
“So it can go two different ways, unless toi get it exactly right to the recipe.” Cole
“yes” Jacob
“How do toi know all of this, why are toi so in tune with your destiny all of the sudden?” Paige
“All mages go through a period of absolute lack of clarity. On the jour of their ascension they are gifted with the knowledge of their alignment. Since I am still good I now know a great deal of knowledge there is to know about Mage Craft. But once the ritual is complete I will be donné all knowledge of Mage Craft in the universe. I will ascend to a higher plane of understanding. My magic will grow tenfold and I will be a full mage.” Jacob
“That is so cool, are toi going to be like albert Einstein ou what?” Paige
“I will have a uniform understanding of Mage Craft and I will be able to conjure creatures to fight my battles and to get information from. I will be able to live for a very long time, much longer than anyone else. I will have the powers that come with it. I will be able to cast master level spells and create magical items with spell seals.” Jacob
“Sounds like toi are looking vers l'avant, vers l’avant to all of this, just try to not get too caught up in magic. toi should try to have a life separate from it. There are plus rewards in life than just the results of a spell toi cast.” Piper
“I think we should encourage him in his studies, Mage’s are very able potion makers. He could teach toi a thing ou two from that tome of his” Leo
“I think it’s awesome that he is going to have a ton of power, he can maybe one jour montrer me a thing ou two on vanquishing demons.” Paige
“Are toi feeling alright sweetie? toi have been so obsessed with teaching him the joys of maiming and killing demons, do toi think that is healthy to teach a 10 an old boy?” Phoebe
“Maybe not, but I have to teach him something, I don’t know how to do anything else that he could put to some real use.” Paige
“She is just being nice, don’t pick on her mom.” Jacob
“Yeah don’t pick on me phoebe, ou Ill sick Jacob on you.” Paige
“LOL” Piper
“LOL” Leo
“I want to do something for toi guys, is that ok mommy?” Jacob
“Yes, as long as toi don’t orb us into another dimension.” Phoebe
I flip thru my book quickly and I find a spell.
“Omnus trepra gebrine” Jacob
The table, tableau magically clears off and all kinds of breakfast nourriture appears and everyone looks dumbfounded at my spell.
“Wow, Jacob toi are starting off toi role as a Mage quite nicely. Pass the pain Leo” Paige
“There are six kinds, which one do toi want?” Leo
“Whole honey wheat” Paige
Leo hands her a slice and she is content
“This is crazy honey; toi should have told us what toi were going to do before doing it. How are we going to store all of this food?” Piper
“It will disappear in one hour; only the nourriture toi eat will remain. Besides toi spend way too much time cooking and cleaning. Just enjoy yourself, don’t make me enchant toi to.” Jacob
“LOL” Paige
“The scrambled eggs are perfect, so fluffy and tender. I also like the Belgium gaufres with three different sauces. Nice touch!” Phoebe
“I l’amour the bacon, it is so crispy. The jus, jus de is like it was just squeezed.” Leo
“I like it when people are happy, it doesn’t get any simpler than that.” Jacob
Phoebe gave me a gentle Kiss and she hugged me.
I l’amour toi soo much, toi are such a good boy.” Phoebe
“Get over here and eat cole, it’s getting cold.” Jacob
“Are toi guys ok with that?” Cole
“Yes, before I turn toi into a toad, LOL” Jacob
“Lol” Phoebe
We all enjoy the nourriture for about 35 minutes and after we finish up I use some magic to clean the house and when piper comes back down from getting ready she is blown away par how clean it all looks.
“Honey, did toi do all of this? I thought we agreed toi wouldn’t use your powers too much?” Piper
“I just wanted toi to be free from cleaning today; toi use that as an excuse way too much.” Jacob
“We have told her that for months now, she won’t listen to reason.” Paige
“Yeah, so honey I was wondering If I could take a look at your back again, I need to see if it is healing properly.” Phoebe
“Ok, but it feels fine today, normally I would be in pain but today I am pain free. It is strange, No?” Jacob
Me and Phoebe walk upstairs and we go into the bathroom and she lifts up my chemise and looks at the bandage ad pulls it away.
“I don’t believe this, it’s impossible. It is completely Healed.” Phoebe
“We should celebrate, Pizza.” Jacob
“Maybe later, but I don’t believe it. Let’s go montrer my sisters.” Phoebe
We run downstairs and she shows piper and Leo and Paige and Cole.
“He is completely healed, how is that possible?” Phoebe
“Mage’s can heal themselves much plus quickly because they have such an intense connection to nature. This grants them a fast healing time and their magic becomes plus powerful with age.” Leo
“So when he hits the big triple digits he could become a god, theoretically” Paige
“Yes, which is why the elders sent us to him to make sure he stays good, if he were to turn evil it could undermine good forever.” Leo
“So I could become a god?” Jacob
“Not literally, but in a way toi would be nearly immortal and have unlimited powers.” Leo
“My head hurts” Jacob
“Lol, It will take time before toi understand things like Leo can.” Phoebe
“So what are we doing today, I was hoping to rent a movie I have wanted to see but because I lived on the streets I was unable to see it because i had no parent’s” Jacob
“What movie is it, we could rent a few tonight?” Piper
“Hellraiser 2, It is a scary movie filled with demons and a puzzle box that kills when opened.” Jacob
“Sounds terrifying, I’m in dude. I l’amour a good horror flick where people are being dismembered and maimed.” Paige
“Where did toi hear about that at? Doesn’t sound like a movie a ten an old should be seeing?” Piper
“What’s the big deal, I have seen people get blown up par demons and i am perfectly fine, besides he is going to be my Nephew and I am going to spoil him regardless. I say he can watch it.” Paige
“Fine but if he has nightmares toi can deal with him screaming himself awake.” Phoebe
“Fine, I bet toi he won’t have nightmares, because he is a big boy and a Mage.” Paige
“Don’t fight please, let’s just get along?” Jacob
“Oh, he is so cute. My little ambassador. We should get toi a tuxedo. toi would look so cute in it.” Phoebe
“When do I go to school?” Jacob
“Well we still have to talk to Darryl and then we have to enroll toi but soon hopefully.” Piper
“Can toi help me build something, Leo?” Jacob
“Sure, what were toi wanting to build?” Leo
“A big table, tableau with no legs, three times my size and it has to be exact.” Jacob
“Why no legs? How will toi sit at it?” Phoebe
“Oh mommy, toi are so silly sometimes. It is not for sitting at, it is for ascending.” Jacob
“You mean for your ritual, to become a full mage?” Leo
“Yes, I need it to be precise and without flaws. I need lots of chalk too and some white robes. I will need to make a staff sometime today.” Jacob
“Easy little man, we will get toi covered don’t worry. I for one am looking vers l'avant, vers l’avant to the ascension ritual. It should provide me a valuable insight into Mage Craft.” Paige
“We could run par a landscaping store and pick up a young tree, which would make a good staff.” Piper
“No, that is murder. It must be made of ironwood.” Jacob
“Lol. toi really are a friend of nature aren’t you?” Phoebe
“Well, I know a landscaping company that sells ironwood poles for a decent price, how long does it have to be exactly?” Piper
“About 4 feet tall, and if it has leaves on it then it would be better.” Jacob
“Ok, so can toi montrer us this ritual? montrer us how it works?” Phoebe
“Of Course, here (I flip open my book and I turn it to the first page and it is in Latin.)” Jacob
“It’s in latin sweetie.” Piper
I wave my hand over the page and it turns to English.
“That was unbelievable; toi are getting good at this.” Piper
“I build the table, tableau and draw a hexagonal spell joint, joint d’étanchéité with an inverted hexagram and I stand in the middle with my peignoir, robe and staff and I channel my energy through the joint, joint d’étanchéité and I am lifted into the air and a huge beam of white light will fill me with the knowledge and power. Then I ascend to a full mage.” Jacob
“You make it sound so cut and dry, how do toi feel about it?” Piper
“It is what I want, plus than anything in the world. I want to be able to protect my new family.” Jacob
Everyone tears up a little and Phoebe hugs me.
“I l’amour toi all so much and toi have been kind to me, on the streets people would throw things at me and make fun of me. But here I feel sûr, sans danger and loved. I want to help toi defeat the source and I want to montrer all of toi the things I have learned and the things I will learn soon.” Jacob
Everyone started to cry gently and I found myself in a great big ours hug.
“You are such a sweet, sweet boy. We l’amour toi too.” Piper
We all hug for a few moments and I wipe the tears from my eyes and I open my book to magical staff construction.
“I need to have this made exactly at 6:00 pm tonight, it is a mage’s staff and I need to summon the four elementals to imbue it with power. Water, Fire, Earth and wind. They will be difficult to find but I have a spell to summon each of them once I find their hiding place. They are known to trickery so I need to be careful.” Jacob
“What do they look like? They sound so cool.” Paige
“Here is a picture of them.” Jacob
I turn to the page on the back and it shows 4 elementals, one of them resembles a flame the size of a man and has a human head. One has the appearance of a whirlpool of water and has a female face in the center. One looks like a tornado and has a face in the center and the earth one looks like a humanoid made up of twigs and vines and mud.
“They look so cool, I will look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to speaking with one. Maybe they have a cool power they are willing to teach me.” Paige
“No, they only speak to mage’s. Sorry.” Jacob
“Oh dangit, oh well. Would toi be willing to ask them for me? I would repay toi quite handsomely.” Paige
“They do not like greedy people bugging them with demands for power; they would destroy everyone upon hearing it. They are quick to temper unless they are released as soon as possible.” Jacob
“So I guess that means no, Right?” Paige
“I am sorry, I wish I could but it is not possible.”Jacob
“It’s ok little dude, it’s not your fault.” Paige
“Well toi should probably get ready so we can go, ok?” Phoebe
“How? Change my clothes?” Jacob
“Yes and toi should take a douche and be sure to brush your teeth.” Phoebe
“Ok, I l’amour you.” Jacob
“I l’amour toi to sweetie, now hurry up and get ready.” Phoebe
I run up the steps and get ready while Phoebe talks to piper and Leo and Paige
“He is such a sweet boy; I am so lucky to be a mom to him. I don’t care if he isn’t mine. I l’amour him just the same.” Phoebe
“I know, that is one of the most wonderful things about adoption. The rewards are endless and in your case they really are. Think of the magic he could montrer toi and the powers he could help toi get” Paige
“Last thing I heard toi were an outlaw and toi disobeyed your parent’s, which worries me somewhat.” Phoebe
“Lol” Piper
“Is that all toi think about, getting new powers, Besides my SON is responsible enough not to give toi any magic toi are not ready for. He knows toi are way too gun ho on magic.” Phoebe
“I am not gun ho on magic, I just want to get to know how powerful his people were and to do that I am hoping he will teach me a few spells I can put to some real good use.” Paige
“Well hopefully he will teach the three of toi a few cool spells so demons will have a tougher time hunting us. I look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to teaching him about Mage’s; there is a lot he needs to know so he won’t make their mistake.” Leo
“Which mistake would that be?” Piper
“Becoming power hungry and using demonic magic, it is a real threat to him at such a young age.” Leo
“I hear that, well I think I am going to go check up on him, he is just too cute and I can’t stand to be away from him. I kept checking up on him during the night. He is so cute when he sleeps.” Phoebe
“Phoebe, I think toi are obsessing.” Paige
“No I’m not, he thinks of me as his mommy, which is just too cute and sweet.” Phoebe
“He is a sweetie, that’s for sure. Have toi decided what toi are going to do about Cole? Does he want to risk the potion Jacob told him about?” Piper
“He wants to start as soon as possible, as soon as Jacob finishes ascending to a full mage.” Phoebe
“It’s going to be so cool when he does the ritual. What kind of snacks should I make for us? It will be quite a show.” Piper
“I don’t think that is fair to him, he is not allowed to eat at all during the ritual ou he will fail. We should support him par not stuffing our faces while he is ascending. It would be kind of rude.” Leo
“You are so right, we should support him par stuffing our faces at around six then we will be able to make it through.” Piper
“Lol, good idea.” Phoebe
I walk down in a pair of jeans and a tank haut, retour au début on with a pair of new sneakers.
“Oh, toi look so cute. Come over here so I can see you.” Phoebe
I walk over to Phoebe and she spins me around and tells me it was a good choice and I pull out a pair of sunglasses and I put them on.
“Where did toi get those from, toi look like MacGyver. Lol” Phoebe
“I saw him on the télévision and I wanted to look like him so I conjured them. Do toi like them Mommy?” Jacob
“I l’amour them, toi look so handsome and toi are just going to make the ladies die.” Phoebe
“Dying is bad, don’t say that mommy.” Jacob
“LOL” PIPER LEO PAIGE PHOEBE
“Ok, I am sorry, can toi forgive me?” Phoebe
“Ok, I forgive toi but try to be plus positive. If anything they are going to find me yummy.” Jacob
“Lol, where did toi hear that word?” Phoebe
“From you.” Jacob
“Lol” Everyone
“Such a positive role model, I hope he doesn’t say anything like that at school. Can toi imagine the horror of having to get a call because he a dit his teacher was yummy? That would be hilarious.” Paige
“It would be kind of funny; But Maybe we should teach him words he should never say, just so we can avoid things like that.” Piper
“No, I think we should just wait for awhile. There is no point I giving him a gun if he doesn’t know how to use it anyways.” Phoebe
“I agree, so Jacob are toi ready to go out?” Piper
“Yes, let’s go.” Jacob
Me and Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Leo walk out to the car and we get in and drive to the police station
After 15 minutes we get there and Darryl is waiting outside smoking a cigarette.
“Hello Darryl, we need some help with something?” Piper
“Sure guys, just ask?” Darryl
“We need to go somewhere sûr, sans danger and talk, maybe out back behind Denny’s would be ok?” Piper
“Sure, just give me 5 minutes.” Darryl
We wait for a few minutes and I am leaning on a mur and I see him walking to us
“Hey guys, what’s up? Another demon toi need covered up?” Darryl
“Not quite, we were sent par the elders to find this little boy because he is a Mage and he is the last of his kind. We want to adopt him and as a matter of fact we need to adopt him. He doesn’t belong in the mortal world and if social services find him he will never be able to fulfill his destiny. The truth is that he thinks of Phoebe as his mom and he would be devastated if he was pulled away from her. He was raised and tortured par a demon his whole life so he does not have parents. Can toi help us?” Piper
“Boy toi guys give me tough ones. I think I can help but it will be difficult. Have toi tried using magic to accomplish it?” Darryl
“We can’t, it would be personal gain.” Piper
“We wouldn’t have bothered toi with this if it wasn’t important. This could affect the whole world, not just us. “Phoebe
“Is it alright if I talk to him for a second?” Darryl
“Sure, just don’t make sudden movements. He freaks out easily.” Phoebe
Darryl walks up to me and kneels down
“Hey little guy, do toi want to live with these people?” Darryl
“Yes, plus than anything. They are my family, and they have been so caring and nice to me. Please let me stay with them.(I run up to him and I hug him and cry begging him to let me stay.)” Jacob
Darryl starts to cry a little and he talks to me gently
“I don’t have much of a say in the matter but I promise toi I am going to do whatever it takes to let toi stay with them.” Darryl
I walk off with Paige and he talk to Phoebe and Piper
“He is such a nice boy, god I wish I could just snap my fingers, I would make his wish come true. I’ll do it. I can pull a lot of my weight with the department of social services. As far as I know it is plus than likely toi guys should be able to adopt him.” Darryl
“Thank toi Darryl, that’s all we ask.” Piper
“This is for toi to give to Sheila” Jacob
He looks dumbfounded
“Who’s Sheila?” Darryl
“Your wife silly” Jacob
“Can he read minds ou what?” Darryl
“Yes, kind of. Just take the blue rose and say thank you. He did go through a little trouble to make it.” Phoebe
“It’s a gift to say thank you. Mommy can we go now?” Jacob
“Yes just a second, go play with Paige for a second.” Phoebe
“Ok mommy” Jacob
“He is so sweet, I l’amour him so much. I hope this works out.” Phoebe
“How did he make a blue rose? I have never seen one this color before.” Darryl
“It is a spell he used and we need to make him realize magic cannot be used out in public.” Piper
“It was sweet of him, I will be sure to give it to her. Thanks little man.” Darryl
“Ok, honey I want toi to promise me that toi won’t use magic out in the open anymore ok. I am not mad ou anything it’s just that it could put mommy in danger and all of us in danger. Do toi promise me?” Phoebe
“I am sorry, I promise.” Jacob
“Good, Thank toi sweetheart.” Phoebe
“Can we please go now I gots stuff to get and not much time.” Jacob
“Hold your chevaux there, we are almost done.” Paige
“Ok, but I need to get started soon. And Leo don’t forget, I need your help.” Jacob
“I know Jacob, don’t worry it will happen, I promise.” Leo
We stand around a while longer while Darryl makes some calls and He tells Piper
“She told me they want to have a meeting at your house with 2 people from social services, they a dit if the meeting goes well they will sign the papers that will allow him to déplacer in with toi guys.” Darryl
“Thank toi so much, I hate to ask toi for stuff all the time. Thanks so much.” Piper
“It is no problem at all; he seems like a sweet kid. One quick question though, why is he so anxious to get going and what does he need to start?” Darryl
“Tonight at midnight he needs to perform a ritual to awaken his full power ou else he will be made a mortal. He is excited par it and so are we as a matter of fact.” Phoebe
“Can I come and watch, consider it my payment?” Darryl
“As long as Jacob says it is ok, salut honey can toi quit bouncing around long enough so mommy can ask toi a question?” Phoebe
“Yes, sorry mommy.” Jacob
“its ok sweetie, I’m not upset. Since Darryl helped us to allow toi to stay with us would it be alright if he comes for the ritual?” Phoebe
“OK, but he needs to be quiet because the elementals don’t like mortals talking too much, it gets on their nerves.” Jacob
Darryl and Phoebe laugh gently and he says thanks buddy
“I look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to it; it is at 12:00 right?” Darryl
“You should come at 11:30 so toi won’t be late.” Jacob
“I will buddy, thank toi so much for inviting me.” Darryl
“Well we gotta get going; he is starting to get a little hyper. He must have snuck some coffee from pipers stash.” Phoebe
“He better not have, little rug rat.” Piper
We get
“How dare toi touch my things, I have told toi once and I have told toi a thousand times, if toi touch my things I will beat you. Now get out of my sight toi worm.” Azmodon
“Yes, Sir” Boy (I was terrified at having made him angry but it seemed this time he was montrer mercy, of that I was somewhat grateful, but at the same time I was highly suspicious.)
Over the course of a week I kept hearing him talk about some grand plan he wants to put into action and I kept thinking what a joke he was. No one has ever killed the Charmed ones and no one ever will.
A jour later he walked into my small tanière, den and un-cuffed me from the mur and spoke to me in a calm voice.
“I am releasing you; get out before I change my mind. toi will find a stone arch down the hall. Touch it and toi will be transported to the surface world. Do not ask me why, I have much to do and little time to get it done. NOW GO” Azmodon
Ever since then I have not looked back, I was walking the streets of San Francisco looking for a couple of bucks ou just a small bite to eat. I got very lucky, a woman pushing a shopping chariot, panier found me huddled on a park bench and she took pity on me from the beginning. She showed me how to beg for money and she let me keep all of it, she taught me how to look and act pathetic which I found to be very helpful when a couple of local college kids saw me. They gave me 100 dollars and I remember being so happy that I ran back to the camp to tell her when I saw it. The camp was being attacked par demos and people were dying left and right. I saw her and she told me to run and do not look back but I did and that is when I saw a fireball hit her and she turned into a pile of dust before my eyes.
I remember crying like I never have before; I Lost a good friend and my mentor. It was 2 weeks since that happened and I still had 80 dollars so I negotiated with a local innkeeper and he let me stay for a week even though it would hurt him a little but he only charged me 60 dollars which was really nice of him.
I was left with 20 dollars so I went down to a local pizza place and I bought a large pizza ad I went back to the hotel and the owner greeted me and offered me a six pack of soda since he was going to be switching to diet, me and him ate pizza and drank soda while he asked me about how I got so bad into my current situation and I had to lie to him of course but he believed me.
Late in the night at around 10:00 I decided to go on a walk through a local alley way and that is when I saw it. A demon that stood 6 feet tall and he was harassing a woman who was apparently a witch and was trying to vanquish him with no success.
Then I saw them, the Charmed ones. The three of them looked so powerful and at the same time I was frightened par them.
“Step back now ou we will vanquish you. I mean it, no funny games” Piper
“Do toi think toi can defeat me, a couple of puny witches? Ha ha ha don’t make me laugh.” Demon
In less than a few minutes they read some kind of a funny sounding rhyme and the demon burst into flames.
Just as they were about to orb away I accidently tripped on some boxes and they heard me
“What was that noise?” Paige
“I don’t know, Paige go check it out. Phoebe and I will check out the book of shadows to figure out what demon that was.” Piper
“Be careful Paige, it could be a trap?” Leo
“I am fine, just go on without me.” Paige
They orbed out and one of them started walking towards the sound I made with a bottle in her hand filled with a purple fluid.
“Hello. Is anyone there? This is not funny, come out now ou toi could get hurt.” Paige
I was about to leave when I slipped and hit my head on the sidewalk and I felt arms pick me up gently and when I opened my eyes I saw what I thought was an angel.
“Are… are toi a… Angel?” Boy
“Lol, no I’m afraid toi are still in the land of the living, but thanks for the compliment.” Paige
“My head hurts, what happened to me?” Boy
“You hit your head pretty good, here let me check it.” Paige
I could feel her déplacer my hair around a little bit and then she paused and I was afraid because I still had scars from Azmodon flaying my scalp from spilling his potions.
“Who did this to you? Was it your parents?” Paige
I became terrified and tried to run
“It’s ok dude, no one is going to hurt you, toi are sûr, sans danger with me I promise.” Paige
“Demon, there is a demon here.” Boy
Cole walks up behind Paige and says to her
“Who is he, and why is he injured.” Cole
“He hit his head while trying to climb the side of the building.” Paige
“Should toi heal him, it looks serious.” Cole
“I was going to do that now.” Paige (She stretches her hand across my head and she tries to heal me, but I get scared and I feel power course thru me and I see Cole fly across the alley and as Paige runs to help him up I escape.)
I manage to get back to the hotel and she is unable to catch up.
“What the hell was, how did he do that? Could he be a witch?” Paige
“Unlikely, I could sense his power; it was much stronger than a witch’s power could ever be. But he doesn’t feel like a demon either. We should tell Leo about this.” Cole
“I agree, let’s get back to the house.” Paige
Paige orbs Cole back to the manor and the view shifts to the manor
“Paige toi got back, did toi ever find out what that noise was?” Piper
“Yes, it was a small boy. He looked terrified and he hit his head trying to climb up a building and Cole shimmered in which freaked him out and I think ou we think he might have powers.” Paige
“He did something to me and I flew back almost 30 feet into a brick wall, I am lucky to be alive.” Cole
“And did toi do anything to provoke him?” Phoebe
“No I swear it, I was just going to comfort him and he kept saying DEMON.” Cole
“Ok this is going to require a change of plans, we need to find out what his story is whether ou not he is an innocent we need to protect ou if he is some kind of a demon In disguise. Leo, can toi go ask the elders about him while I look in the book.” Piper
“Sure thing honey, do toi need anything from the store, I could stop there on my way back?” Leo
“Some pain and lait is all. But hurry up.” Piper
“Ok, I l’amour you” Leo
“I l’amour toi to” Piper
They Kiss briefly and he orbs out while piper and her sisters discuss the boy with Cole.
“Ok, so where did he run off to? I find it hard to believe he could go far, he looked badly malnourished. He also had scars on his scalp from what looked like an Athame. He might have been abused par his parents.” Paige
“Then we need to find him quickly, he could be dangerous in the frightened state he is in.” Phoebe
“Cole, do toi need a cold pack for your head.” Piper
“No, I’m fine. I just want to help find him. I don’t blame him for doing what he did; he was obviously terrified of me. But does that mean he could sense my demonic nature ou what.” Cole
“Its possible sweetie, but we need to find him before he does something he might regret.” Phoebe
Meanwhile back at the hotel I am opening my backpack and pulling out a small book, the one the demon found me with when I was born. It had funny or seals on the outside and several times I thought about pawning it but I could never bring myself to do it.
I could never read anything inside it, it was in Latin. I know because I went to a bibliothèque once and showed it to a librarian and she got all traverser, croix eyed and a dit she cannot read Latin.
I put it away and I lit a candle and I cracked open a bud light I swiped from college kids a few doors down. I didn’t really like the taste but I was doing it for my Friends who died.
The view shifts back to the manor and Leo orbs in and has a worried look on his face.
“We got a very serious issue, and it is a time sensitive one.” Leo
“What is it? Is it about the boy?” Piper
“Yes, apparently he is the last of his kind and toi guys have to protect him until he can receive his full powers.” Leo
“That’s it, Leo. Exactly what kind is he of?” Paige
“A Mage, Beings who command the forces of nature and can live for hundreds of years because of this connection and they are extremely powerful as children, when they become adults they are almost like gods.” Leo
“OK, that is almost too much to take in at one time.” Piper
“So that must be why he has the cuts all over him, Maybe a demon captured him and he found a way to escape.” Paige
“But, why is it toi never mentioned mages to us until now?” Piper
“They are extinct Piper, ou they should be. The world has not seen one for over 1000 years. So evil will do and use whatever it can to persuade him to turn.” Leo
“So we need to find him quickly, Phoebe go scry for his location while I prepare a knock out potion.” Piper
“I already know where he is at, the elders consider this to be a haut, retour au début priority and they gave me his location.” Leo
“Ok then I will go make a stun potion real quick then we can go.” Piper
Back at the hotel I am getting sleepy from the half bière I drank and I place it in the fridge and I tuck myself in and I leave the lights on but pull the covers over my head and I fall asleep
View shifts back to the attic and we see Piper holding the potion and all of the sisters and Cole orb in to the hotel lobby.
“I will ask the manager about a boy and see what I get.” Paige
“Excuse me, how may I help you? Are toi interested in a room?” Manager
“No, Actually I am with the department of social services and I am here about a boy toi seem to have donné residence to. Is he still here par any chance?” Paige
“Yes, but he will probably freak out when toi see him, I will just give toi the key to his room so he doesn’t blame me. He is a good kid, extremely thoughtful. That’s why I am taking a killing just so he can have a place to crash. I was going to call toi guys tomorrow so I am glad toi arrived now. It is room 228 and up on the seconde floor. I want toi to give this to him, I would rather he keep his money than I take it. Good Luck” Manager
“Thank toi sir, toi have been most helpful. And that is very sweet of toi to give him his money back.” Paige
Paige and Phoebe walks up to room 228 while Piper and leo stand guard near the door. Cole waits in the car.
“Ok here is the plan, I open the door and try to keep him calm while toi orb behind him and use the potion on him to stun him.” Phoebe
“Ok, but try not to screw it up. We cannot chase him all night.” Paige
Phoebe walks up to the door and puts the key card into the slot and it clicks unlocked and she gently and quietly opens the door.
She walks in and finds the room is spotless save for a few pop cans in the trash and a pizza box on the table, tableau with not a crumb left over. She walks over to the lit and notices I am fast asleep and then she notices the book on the table.
She opens it and she is dumbfounded as to what it says.
She walks over to me and gently shakes me awake and I stir and I pull the covers down slightly.
She shakes me again and I pull them off of me, I sit up with my eyes still closed and she giggles slightly and shakes me again.
“Wake up sleepy head, it’s time to get up.” Phoebe
“Are toi an angel? Because toi smell so pretty and your hair is so soft.” Boy
She giggles and says
“No, I am a friend of the woman toi met in the alley.” Phoebe
“Why, why did toi guys follow me? I just want to be left to myself. I didn’t do anything wrong, I swear it.” Boy
“I know toi didn’t, but young boys don’t belong in a hotel eating pizza. They belong with a family that can take care of them and give them happiness.” Phoebe
“Your… your… name is Phoebe, Right?” Boy
“How did toi know my name?” Phoebe
“I don’t know.” Boy
“You better get dressed, we got a warm meal for toi and some clean clothes.” Phoebe
“That demons stench is all over you, I’m not going with you.” Boy
Phoebe looks at me with a surprised look and then speaks
“How can toi smell him on me?” Phoebe
“I just can, now leave me be ou I will defend myself.” Boy
“We are not here to hurt you; we want to help toi out. Please come with me.” Phoebe
“NO!!!” Boy A violent gust of wind comes through the windows and knocks her off the lit and I stand up and grab my book and backpack ad just as I make it to the door a tall man and a short woman stand in front of it and they won’t budge.
“Let me go NOW!!!.” Boy
“Just try to relax; we are not going to let anyone hurt you. I promise.” Piper
“It’s ok, I know you’re scared. Just calm down and let us help you?” Leo
Just then I feel hands grab me from behind and that woman from the alley takes a bottle opens it and pours it down my throat and I feel myself pass out.
Time and l’espace seem to float away as I slumber
I start to wake up slowly and I have no idea where I am at.
“I think he is waking up, Piper go get Leo.” Paige
I see the lady from the hotel walk up to me and place her hand on my head with a cold rag and I try to pull my face away but she grabs the back of my head and she smiles at me.
“It’s ok, I’m not going to hurt you, I promise.” Phoebe
“Then why did toi guys drug me and bring me here. Just a social call?” Boy
“LOL, toi do have a sense of humor. We brought toi here because we think toi might have magical powers.” Phoebe
“Then just take them and kill me, and quit with this routine already. I know why toi are pretending to be them. So toi can lull me into a false sense of security then steal my powers so I cannot fight back.” Boy
She looks sad from my comment
“I am not a demon, I’m a witch. I can cast spells and I have the power to levitate and see into the future. Do toi know what powers toi have?” Phoebe
“I don’t have any powers.” Boy
“Then where did the gust of wind come from?” Phoebe
“How should I know, Maybe it was something toi did to trick me into feeling sorry for toi ou something.” Boy
“And why would I do that?” Phoebe
“I don’t know” Boy
Phoebe walks to Piper and Paige and just as she leaves I get the idea to run towards the door and just as I get there I hit some kind of a blue mur that disappears as soon as I quit touching it.
“Ouch, my head” Boy
“Do toi really think we would leave toi alone if we didn’t have a backup plan in place? We placed crystals all over to keep toi from leaving until we help toi get straightened out.” Cole
“Stay away, Phoebe help me. He’s going to kill me.” Boy
“No he’s not; he would never hurt toi ou anyone else. He is an angel. He won’t hurt toi I promise.” Phoebe
“He has blood on his hands, and he keeps looking at me in a funny way.” Boy
“I don’t have blood on my hands, they are clean see.” Cole
“Cole would never hurt you, I promise toi that. He is a good guy now.” Phoebe
I start to cry a little and I beg to them
“Please just let me go, I promise I won’t tell Azmodon ou anyone else what I’ve seen.” Boy
“Who is Azmodon?” Paige
“The demon who found me as a baby, He let me go a mois il y a and I managed to get out into the streets where a nice lady let me stay in her tent and after a week ou two she was killed along with all the other poor people and I have been out on the streets until I got to stay at a nice hotel.” Boy
Phoebe teared up and Paige was trying her best to hold it back and cole just sat there with no expression
“I drank a bière to honor her, she liked bud light. I found one near a bunch of college kids. I miss her so much.(At this point I am crying loudly and Phoebe holds me while Paige strokes my back and Piper walks in to figure out what happened.)” Boy
“Why is he crying, did toi freak him out again cole.” Piper
“No I swear, he is probably upset because of his Friends being killed par demons.” Cole
“What friends?” Piper
I manage to wipe away my tears and I speak
“She was a bum who lived in an old warehouse with a bunch of other bums and she gave me a place to stay and taught me how to beg for money and showed me stuff like how to sew together strips of fabric into clothes and stuff. I was running back accueil to montrer her a 100 dollars I was donné par a college dorm and I saw them being mutilated par demons and she told me to run while a ball of feu hit her and she died.” Boy
“Her name was Margaret and she like bud light and chameau cigarettes. I bought her some for her birthday with some change I managed to find and she was so happy. She was like a mom to me.” Boy
“It sounds like toi l’amour her very much; it was a very good thing of her to give her life to save you. She must have loved toi to.” Piper
“And now she’s gone and I am so scared and I don’t know what to do.” Boy
“You poor, sweet boy. We are here to help you. Why don’t toi go upstairs with phoebe and she can help toi take a bath. It always relaxes me and toi can even have bubbles in it.” Piper
“Ok, thank toi very much. I am so sorry for attacking you. I didn’t know toi were good. (I run up to cole and I hug him).” Boy
“It’s ok little guy, I am not mad at you. If anything I thought toi got me pretty good, toi should take a little pride in it.” Cole
“That is the sweetest thing I have ever seen, Cole toi look like toi are about to cry.” Paige
“I’m fine, I just got something in my eye is all.” Cole
I walk upstairs and Phoebe comes in with me and asks me how hot I want the water to be.
“I am not sure; my back hurts if it is too hot. I think warm would be fine.” Boy
“Ok, just let me add some soap to it… There all done now I will go out and let toi get undressed and toi just holler at me so I can help get your back clean.” Phoebe
“Ok, thank toi for helping me.” Boy
“It’s no problem at all.” Phoebe
She walks out and closes the door and I kick my shoes off and get undressed and walk into the tub and I feel the searing white hot pain that follows. My flesh on my back exposed I wince in agony and the only thing to keep me from passing out is the memory of her sweet face and the nice things she a dit to me.
After a half an heure she opens it gently and asks me if I need help with my back. I don’t answer mainly from pain
“Do toi need help with your back?” Phoebe
“…..” Boy
She walks in and crouches down suivant to the tub and she starts to wet a scratch pad and starts working over my neck which feels good but then she does it on my upper back.
“Ouch it hurts, please stop. PLEASE.” Boy
“I am sorry but I have to get this dirt off of toi if toi want to be clean.” Phoebe
The water behind me starts to turn rose and she notices
“Oh my god what is that?” Phoebe
She stops and picks me up gently and she screams at the sight of my disfigured back.
“OH MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU? WHY DIDN’T toi TELL ME TO STOP?” Phoebe
“I tried to, but toi wouldn’t listen.” Boy
“PIPER… LEO… PAIGE… GET IN HERE HE NEEDS HEALING.” Phoebe
Leo runs up and Piper and Paige is behind him.
“What happened, WHO DID THAT TO HIM?” Paige
“OH MY GOD, toi POOR BOY. I AM SO SORRY. LEO HEAL HIM NOW” Piper
“I’m on it(He heals me and the skin stretches back in place and it no longer hurts .) There toi go. I cannot heal him all the way.” Leo
“Why not?” Piper
“I don’t know, but he needs ointment on it ou he will get an infection.” Leo
Phoebe apologizes to me and as she brushes her hand on a scar she gets a premonition.
(I bump into a table, tableau with a freshly made batch of Firepetal jus, jus de and it spills and Azmodon takes his infernal whip and hits me ten times)
Phoebe snaps out of it and she is crying hysterically and her back is bleeding badly and she has the same marks as I do
“OH MY GOD, THAT SICK BASTARD, HE DID THIS TO toi DIDN’T HE?” Phoebe
“Yes, but only because I was careless and ruined one of his potions.” Boy
After Leo heals her and she calms down a little She grabs me and tells me
“There is nothing that a sweet and innocent boy could ever do to deserve to be beaten with a whip like that. What he did was wrong and unspeakable. It was a cowardly and inhuman thing to do and I am so sorry that he did that to you.” Phoebe
(She hugged me hard and I was sobbing a little and Piper spoke)
“Maybe we should give him and phoebe a few minutes to calm down.” Piper
Leo, Piper and Paige walked out and Phoebe kept hugging me and I was trembling from the overload of emotions that I had no experience with.
I kissed her on the forehead and she looked confused.
“What was that for?” Phoebe
“I like you” Boy
“Lol, I can see we are going to need to talk with piper on that subject.” Phoebe
“What subject? I just a dit I like toi is all. Besides, I don’t have a clue why toi are so defensive about it all the sudden. All I did was Kiss toi on the forehead. It’s what Margaret did to calm me down, it made me feel happy.” Boy
She smiled at me and Kissed me back and I giggled a little
“I need to wash your back now, ok?” Phoebe
“Ok, be careful though.” Boy
“I promise.” Phoebe
She washes my back and I feel at peace, except when she touches an exposed muscle and it makes me twitch a little.
After I am done she walks out for a bit and comes back with some clothes and places them on the lit and tells me when I am ready I should get dressed for dinner.
I get out and carefully dry off and i notice there is no shirt.
I get dressed and walk down the hall and she catches me with a medical kit and has me go into her room.
“Phoebe, what’s wrong with him exactly. I heard he got beaten ou something.” Cole
“It was Azmodon, he beat him like a rag doll over a spilled potion because he was trying to tidy up his den.” Phoebe
“That is awful, I hope it doesn’t hurt him too much.” Cole
“He bled in the tub, because I cleaned his back too hard and he wouldn’t explain it to me” Phoebe
“He was probably trying to act brave; He probably has a crush on you.” Cole
“I think he might, he kissed me in the tub. Told me he loved me and a dit his friend did that to him to calm him down. But he did not say it to my face so I think maybe he was embarrassed to admit it.” Phoebe
“Sounds like I have competition, I need to step up my game a bit then.” Cole
“Lol, just don’t mention it in front of him. I don’t want toi embarrassing him any plus than he has been.” Phoebe
“I promise” Cole
I walk in and Phoebe asks me to sit on the edge of the lit and she starts to rub some ointment on my back and it soothes the pain instantly, but it is really because she is doing it but I will not admit it to her.
“How does that feel, am I pressing too hard?” Phoebe
“No, it feels wonderful. Thank You.” Boy
“Ok I need to bandage toi up now so just stand up and go to the side of the bed.” Phoebe
I do what she asked and I feel her hands pressing onto my back as she applies a bandage to me and I feel at peace
“There toi go, all set. Here is a chemise I picked out for you. Piper made some Burgers and French fries and Paige wanted to have a quick chat with you.” Phoebe
“Thank you, (I hug her and she jumps a little and I gently Kiss her on her cheek and she giggles slightly and I walk out and close her door).” Phoebe
“You see, I told toi he likes you. Do I hear wedding bells?” Cole
“Cole, toi are such a pervert, Lol. I will have to talk to Piper to get her opinion. He might just be jouer la comédie affectionate. I read that when kids are taken out of a bad situation they tend to get very affectionate and in some cases attached to the person who did it. It is a normal defense to the pain he is going through.” Phoebe
I walk downstairs and Paige greets me at the end of the steps.
“Hey, tiger. Why don’t we have a quick chat? I wanted to ask toi about your book.” Paige
“It’s not for sale.” Boy
“Lol, I don’t want to buy it silly, I was just curious if toi have ever tried to read it?” Paige
“Once, I went to a bibliothèque and asked a librarian. She told me she didn’t speak old Latin.” Boy
“So I guess toi have had no luck lire it then?” Paige
“No, but I bet Phoebe could. She is super smart and pretty.” Boy
Paige cracks a smile and looks to Piper
“I am starving, could I get some nourriture now, Please.” Boy
“Sure, salut piper is that grub done yet.” Paige
“Yes, Tell Phoebe to come down and ask her if Cole is staying.” Piper
A few minutes later Paige walks down with Phoebe and she looks so gorgeous and so confident
We sit at the table, tableau and I am sitting suivant to Piper and Phoebe
“I made burgers and fries, I have pepsi and some root beer. Help yourself” Piper
“Thank you, I am starving.” Boy
“Hey Piper could I get a Pepsi please.(I run up to the fridge and Piper seems taken aback and I rush back and hand it to Phoebe with a smile and I say)” Phoebe
“Here toi go, Enjoy” Boy
“Lol, What was that all about?” Piper
“Thank toi so much, that was very sweet of toi to do.” Phoebe
“Hey little man, could toi get me a Pepsi?” Paige
“I guess.” Boy
“I could use a Pepsi myself, If toi don’t mind” Leo
I run and grab them and give one to Leo and Paige and I sit down.
I eat the whole burger and I eat everything off of my plate and I get up and I offer to take Phoebe’s plate into the cuisine and I wash them and I walk over to phoebe.
“Would toi like to sit with me?” Boy
“Sure, why not? I just need to talk to Piper real quick then I will rejoindre toi ok.” Phoebe
“Ok, don’t take too long. I am going to go look at my book.” Boy
She giggled and I helped her up which put a look of amusement on Leo and Piper as well as Paige
I go sit in the living room and she talks to Piper
“I have a big problem; I think he has a crush on me. In the tub he kissed me on the forehead and told me he liked me and when I was putting the ointment on he kissed me on the cheek and told me I was beautiful.” Phoebe
“Well, maybe he is just getting attached because toi helped him.” Piper
“The thing with grabbing toi a pop and almost tackling piper seemed a tad obsessive to me. And he almost complained about having to get me and leo a pop. But he got toi one like it made him happy. Maybe he does have a crush on you; toi should explain to him why it would never work out.” Paige
“I agree with Paige, but toi need to do it easy and in a caring way. If his s’embrasser toi is bothering toi then toi shouldn’t have to put up with it.” Leo
“He is probably just expressing an emotion he doesn’t understand. He was with a demon his whole life. toi should let this play out for awhile until we can figure out what is going on.” Piper
I was sitting there trying to figure out what my book a dit when Phoebe and her sisters plus Leo walked in and Phoebe sat beside me.
“Honey, could we talk to toi for a minute Please?” Phoebe
“Yeah sure, anything.” Boy
“I need to ask toi an important question, and I need toi to be honest.” Phoebe
“Ok, I will try to answer.” Boy
“I won’t get mad ou make fun of toi nor will my sisters. I just need toi to be honest with me; toi don’t need to be embarrassed about it. Do toi have a crush on me?” Phoebe
“What is a crush?” Boy
“Well, A crush involves admiring someone from a sûr, sans danger distance. toi feel a hugely powerful emotion, stronger than anything you've felt before. toi obsess over this person. toi would die for them. toi think about them constantly. toi are thrilled when toi are near them and miserable when toi are away from them. toi desperately want to tell the person how toi feel - but are frightened of it at the same time.” Phoebe
“I am not sure, maybe toi should go away tomorrow and we can see if I am miserable with toi gone.” Boy
Piper and Leo let out a good belly laugh and Paige keeps herself from giggling
“Lol, Alright. But do toi think about me constantly ou would toi die for me?” Phoebe
“I just met you, I wouldn’t need to die for toi because I wouldn’t let toi come to harm to begin with.” Boy
Now Piper and Leo are smiling and Paige has a tear down her cheek
“You are just too cute, how would toi be able to protect me? What if I was half way across the world on a trip with cole, would toi still be able to protect me?” Phoebe
“Yes, I l’amour you. toi remind me of the nice lady that would visit me in the underworld. She was a good Demon, she didn’t hurt any innocents ou anything. She brought me bits of nourriture and sang to me softly while stroking my head. But she had to quit because Azmodon would have flayed me and her Alive.” Boy
Leo and Piper had a tear down their faces and Paige was sobbing a little and Phoebe had a tear forming in her eye.
“She was like a mommy to toi wasn’t she? Is that how toi see me?” Phoebe
“Yes and I loved her very much but now I l’amour toi even more, I wouldn’t be sad if toi went away for a short time because I know I can keep toi safe.” Boy
Phoebe was tearing up at the words I gave to her.
“The old mommy taught me some magic, she told me it was something written in my book. I think she called it a spell. She a dit only I have the power to cast it and whoever I cast it on would be immortal for a short time. She a dit it will take a lot out of me to do it.” Boy
“Can I see this spell toi are talking about?” Phoebe
“Of course, I want to montrer toi my book.” Boy
“I would l’amour to see it, is it ok if everyone looks at it?” Phoebe
“If toi say it is alright then I don’t mind, just not cole. The book would try to hurt him if he touched it.” Boy
I walk over and pick the book out of my bag and a grab a piece of beef jerky and I sit back down suivant to phoebe and I open it up to the middle and I montrer her the spell.
“You place your hand here and i place mine their and it will keep toi from harm. For awhile anyways,” Boy
“How long will it protect me?” Phoebe
“For a day, I think. I don’t know how to read it so I cannot cast it.” Boy
“It’s ok, toi will learn some day.” Phoebe
“Do toi have any other cool spells in there?” Piper
“I am not sure; I can’t read latin so I have not been able to figure it out. But I did cast a spell from here once. I conjured a blue rose.” Boy
“Could toi conjure one for me?” Phoebe
“Of course I can, I just need a plain leaf and a twig.” Boy
Piper and Leo are amazed at all the images in my book and after a few moments Paige comes back with a leaf and a twig and hands them to Phoebe.
“Here toi are, one leaf and one twig. Fresh from the backyard.” Paige
“Thank You.” Boy
“I need a piece of paper and a pen, let’s go to the table, tableau in the dining room.” Boy
So Piper gets me a piece of paper and a pen and we walk into the living room and I get to wrok drawing a perfect cercle and I duplicate the spell joint, joint d’étanchéité exactly.
“So what is the cercle toi are drawing?” Piper
“A spell seal, it focuses the magic and amplifies it, it also allows me to transmute the twig and leaf into a rose. Watch” Boy
I place the twig and leaf on the cercle and I clap my hands together and touch them to the cercle and it glows bright blue.
“Oh my god, that looks dangerous. We better get back.” Phoebe
“it’s okay, it won’t hurt you. It’s just magic. WATCH!” Boy
The twig and leaf start to melt and change into a deep blue rose with a gorgeous green stem.
“Here toi go Phoebe, a blue rose.” Boy
“This is so beautiful, thank toi so much. What’s the matter toi look tired?” Phoebe
“I am a little, I’ll be alright. I just need to rest for a minute.” Boy
“Does it always take energy from toi to cast a spell?” Piper
“Just at night, when the sun is not out.” Boy
“That was a very cool trick but toi should be careful, it took a lot out of toi just to make a rose. But toi did a very good job. I am proud of you.” Phoebe
“Yeah that definitely tops Prue’s summoning spell, Can toi teach me how to do it?” Paige
“Sure, just do what I did. toi will get it on the first try. I promise.” Boy
“Do toi ever get tired during the jour when toi use magic?” Leo
“No just at night, I am not sure why.” Boy
“Are toi tired for bed? I could tuck toi in if toi want?” Phoebe
“Please, can toi read me a story?” Boy
“I would be happy to, how about Hansel and Gretel?” Phoebe
“Ok, let’s go” Boy
Phoebe and I walk up the steps and once we are out of sight Piper hugs Leo and starts to cry.
“He is such a sweet boy; I need to talk to toi guys about him. I was thinking of having him stay here permanently. I could talk to Darryl and explain the situation to him. He has been so sweet and caring since we got him here and I don’t think I could ever tear him away from Phoebe. It would be devastating to him and her. He also needs to be in an environment where his powers can be nurtured and no mortal could provide that. If we give him up to social services he may never have the freedom to develop his powers. Would toi guys mind it at all if he stayed here with us?” Piper
“No sweetie, he is plus than welcome. It would be kind of fun to have a little rug rat running around causing mischief. Plus when he gets older he will add to our powers threefold and we could be unstoppable.” Paige
“Paige, His powers are the least of my concern. But I agree with you. It would be fun to have some noise in the house Besides, I could look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to teaching him about witchcraft and maybe he could teach us about Mage craft. What do toi think Leo?” Piper
“I think it would be wonderful, I could teach him the history of Magic and about personal gain and maybe even about his people and what they were like.” Leo
“We should talk to Phoebe first but I am saying yes now, I hope she does.” Piper
A few minutes later Phoebe walks down the steps and she has a tear in her eye.
“What’s the matter Phoebs?” Paige
“He is just so sweet and caring and he thinks of me as his mommy. Do toi guys know how many times I wish a child would call me that? Now I have one that loves me unconditionally and would probably die to keep me safe. That makes me so happy inside, to know he thinks of me so highly. I wish he could stay, I would be happy to be a part of his life.” Phoebe
“Actually Phoebe, I was just talking with Paige and Leo and that is what we are going to decide on. He doesn’t belong in the mortal world, and he loves toi so much that I think the best course of action is to adopt him. Raise him as an adopted member of the family and the things he could teach us and the things we could teach him. Would make any amount of trouble and difficulty worth it. I care about him almost as toi do Phoebe so I am saying the choice has to be yours.” Piper
“Then I say yes, yes. Without a doubt. We need to talk to Darryl to get it going but I want us to take him shopping tomorrow for some clothes.” Phoebe
“I agree, but try to keep him away from the toys. We want him to be a battle hardened mage not a wuss kid playing mighty morphin power rangers.” Paige
“Lol, Paige toi got some growing to do that’s for sure.” Piper
“Lol” Leo
“What, whatever. I just want the best for him. I intend on teaching him all the finer points on magic. Like how to blow up demons and Maybe, Just maybe one jour we can watch him kick the Sources cul, ass and send him packing with a vengeance.” Paige
“Here here, let’s go to lit now though.” Piper
Just then orbs appear and an elder orbs in
“Hello, how are toi all doing? I hope I am not disturbing toi all.” Sandra
“No, what’s wrong this time.” Piper
“Nothing thankfully, but the three of toi should know that tomorrow night he will receive his full powers. We have confirmed this through several sources; he will become a full mage par tomorrow night at Midnight. During a full moon, he must perform this ritual very carefully and he must do it alone. ou else he will become mortal.” Sandra
“Ok, kind of soon don’t toi think, he barely has come to terms with his powers and now toi want to add plus to the mix?” Phoebe
“This is not our doing, we had no idea that a mage would be born into the world. His powers will be legendary, as will his deeds. The four of toi will be his mentor, toi must guide him and protect him from the influence of evil and once his power is fully awakened he will not be able to be changed to a side again. If he is good at the ritual he will be good his entire life. Here is the scroll with our blessing’s. Take care of him like he was your own, our future may depend on it someday.” Sandra
She orbed out and Phoebe looks at the scroll then at Piper
“Did she just make all of this much plus difficult than it needed to be?” Phoebe
“Yes, but we will keep him good. He is already good as it is. Besides I can’t wait to wake him up tomorrow. Oh he is going to be so handsome when he grows up.” Paige
“Ok honey, I think I will wake him up. It would be better for me since he trusts me the most, I think if anyone else does it he will probably freak a little.” Phoebe
“Ok, but can I be there when he wakes up, I want to give him some demon vanquishing tips.” Paige
“I would like to be there so he knows I care for him too. And Leo since 3 votes against one toi got to be there when we wake him up to tell him the good news.” Piper
“Then I will just change my vote and make it unanimous. Besides I think he will be plus receptive of me once he has gotten a good night’s sleep.” Leo
“Ok, let’s go to lit before we stay up till midnight.” Piper
“Yeah, we could practice for a kid of our own.” Leo
“Or we could sleep and talk about it tomorrow night.” Piper
“Lol” Paige
“I am going to go to bed, Goodnight.” Phoebe
“Goodnight, I am tucking in too.” Paige
So the view shifts from night to jour and I slowly stir in my lit and I hear the door opening.
Four people walk in and I can tell they are Piper, Phoebe, Leo, Paige
“Good morning, time to get up, Rise and shine!” Piper
I jump up and Paige giggles at my speediness
“I got some wonderful news honey, how would toi like to stay here with us, forever?” Phoebe
“I would l’amour that plus than anything, besides I hate sleeping out in the rain and cold. It gets a bit too chilly for me.” Boy
“lol” Paige
“We want toi to stay here with us, and I can teach toi allot about magic and Leo can tell toi about what a mage is and what they used to do. Also one jour I promise toi we are going to find a way to find Azmodon, whatever it takes. He will pay for the way he treated you, but right now there is someone downstairs who wants to meet you. She is called Sandra and she is an elder, she is very anxious to meet you.” Piper
I run to Phoebe and I hug her then I run to Paige and give her a hug as well, I Hug piper and Leo and run downstairs as happy as I can possibly be.
“Hello, this is quite an honor. My name is Sandra. I am an elder. How are you?” Sandra
“I am ok, I am uncertain about things but I am very happy here. How are toi doing?” Boy
Sandra seems taken aback
“I am just fine, thank toi for asking. Why don’t we sit down and talk?” Sandra
“Ok, salut guys toi can quit spying now.” Boy
Piper Leo Paige and phoebe walk from the haut, retour au début step and they sit down suivant to me and me and Sandra talk
“So, I am sure toi have a ton of question and i will try to answer as many as I can.” Sandra
“What is it like to be an elder?” Boy
“Wow toi pick some tough ones don’t you? Ok it’s about helping people and coordinating the efforts of good so we get the maximum benefits with minimal costs ou consequences. It is very interesting; toi can orb and go anywhere. toi have a serious power boost. It can be fun at times.” Sandra
“That was a good question dude.” Paige
“What is my name?” Boy
Everyone fell silent except Sandra
“What would toi like it to be? It can be anything toi want” Sandra
“Phoebe, what would toi like to call me?” Boy
“I want to call toi whatever toi want to be called, after all a name is permanent.” Phoebe
“Jacob, I want my name to be Jacob.” Jacob
“Are toi sure, it will be yours forever. “ Sandra
“Yes, I want to be called Jacob.” Jacob
I sense something from Sandra.
“What are toi not telling me?” Jacob
“Wow, toi can read my mind. I thought toi had not developed that power yet. toi are a mage, and toi are promised a great deal of power and in order to get it toi must perform a ritual tonight at midnight under the full moon.” Sandra
“What kind of ritual?” Jacob
“A very special one, Phoebe could toi please montrer him the scroll?” Sandra
Phoebe hands it to me and I open it up.
“I understand” Jacob
“HOW? I thought toi could not read latin.” Piper
“I couldn’t last night, but now I can. It is very strange isn’t it?
Jacob
A question stirs in my mind.
“What happened to my people, I mean the other mages in the world?” Jacob
“They were killed par a vicious demon, a demon they were tricked into summoning; one jour soon toi will have the power to destroy the demon. Until then toi must help the sisters with their destiny. Then toi will be able to fulfill yours.” Sandra
“Will Mommy ever have a child besides me?” Jacob
Phoebe tears up and puts her hand on my shoulder
“All I can say is, yes she will.” Sandra
“What is my destiny right now?” Jacob
“To help the sisters vanquish the Arch-Demons.” Sandra
“What is the source?” Jacob
“A very evil being who is the source of all unhappiness and has power over evil.” Sandra
“Will Cole ever become human?” Jacob
Phoebe squeezed my shoulder and I could hear her cry
“That I do not know for sure, but I can say it is possible.” Sandra
“It was nice meeting you, would toi like a rose?” Jacob
Sandra smiled and nodded
Paige orbed me another leaf and twig and I drew the spell joint, joint d’étanchéité again and I performed the ritual turning the twig and leaf into a Red rose
“Here toi go, it’s a gift. Have a sûr, sans danger journey.” Jacob
“Thank you, toi are very sweet. Be safe” Sandra
She orbed out and Phoebe hugged me
“What is wrong mommy, did I make toi cry?” Jacob
“No, toi are just the most caring person I have ever met. Why were toi thinking about cole?” Phoebe
“I know toi l’amour him, I can feel it. If there is a way to make him human I promise toi I will do it myself, for toi mommy.” Jacob
Phoebe cried on my shoulder and I started to tear up
“Don’t cry mommy, it’s a good thing.” Jacob
“It is a very good thing, I am so proud of you. Would toi mind if Cole came down here now?” Phoebe
“No, not at all. He makes toi happy so I am happy.” Jacob
“He is so sweet and such a handsome boy.” Piper
“Yes he is, a very sweet boy.” Paige
“He does have a big heart, hopefully it stays that way.” Leo
“Cole, toi can come out now.” Phoebe
He shimmers in and I shiver a little bit until phoebe putts her hand on my shoulder and I calm down.
“Jacob has something to say to you, it is so sweet.” Phoebe
“Hey Jacob, listen no hard feeling about throwing me into a wall. I am fine, don’t worry about me.” Cole
“Soon toi will be better than fine, I know a way to make toi human.” Jacob
Cole is speechless and so is everyone else.
“What did toi just say?” Cole
“I know a way to make toi human; I looked it up in my book. It will take 7 days to make the potion but it will strip toi of your demonic side and cleanse your karma. So toi won’t feel guilty anymore.” Jacob
Cole started to cry and he hugged me
Everyone froze up but I hugged him back with a smile on my face.
“I promise toi I will do it. I just need some rare ingredients only toi can get safely.” Jacob
“Anything, just tell me what they are.” Cole
“Something called iron chardon and another plant called dragons blood plus a lock of Medusa hair. The hair can be found in china near a Buddhist temple. It is a plant of some kind. I am not sure. Let me go grab my book.” Jacob
I run to the living room and get my book and I sit down and flip through the pages until I find the potion recipe
“It is called the Turncoat Potion, A potion that turns a demon human and strips them of their powers and demonic nature’s. Also cleanses karma and it is permanent. No plus powers for you.” Jacob
“Looks like I can teach toi potion basics after all, it will be fun I promise.” Piper
“I will also need some quicksilver and a Harpies tongue. Some fennel and a plant called Pain Root.” Jacob
“I have never heard of it, are toi sure that is what it says.” Leo
“Yes, I would not lie and I am not wrong.” Jacob
“Ok ok, chill Jacob we believe you. I can see he has my snappy side down well. Do I really sound like that.” Piper
“Yes toi do piper.” Phoebe
“But we forgive you.” Paige
“I may know what he is talking about, the source keeps a strange plant near a cauldron that he says has roots that appear as if they are in pain, Maybe that’s what he is talking about.” Cole
“It has the power to kill and the power to restore life, depending on what it is mixed with.” Jacob
“So it can go two different ways, unless toi get it exactly right to the recipe.” Cole
“yes” Jacob
“How do toi know all of this, why are toi so in tune with your destiny all of the sudden?” Paige
“All mages go through a period of absolute lack of clarity. On the jour of their ascension they are gifted with the knowledge of their alignment. Since I am still good I now know a great deal of knowledge there is to know about Mage Craft. But once the ritual is complete I will be donné all knowledge of Mage Craft in the universe. I will ascend to a higher plane of understanding. My magic will grow tenfold and I will be a full mage.” Jacob
“That is so cool, are toi going to be like albert Einstein ou what?” Paige
“I will have a uniform understanding of Mage Craft and I will be able to conjure creatures to fight my battles and to get information from. I will be able to live for a very long time, much longer than anyone else. I will have the powers that come with it. I will be able to cast master level spells and create magical items with spell seals.” Jacob
“Sounds like toi are looking vers l'avant, vers l’avant to all of this, just try to not get too caught up in magic. toi should try to have a life separate from it. There are plus rewards in life than just the results of a spell toi cast.” Piper
“I think we should encourage him in his studies, Mage’s are very able potion makers. He could teach toi a thing ou two from that tome of his” Leo
“I think it’s awesome that he is going to have a ton of power, he can maybe one jour montrer me a thing ou two on vanquishing demons.” Paige
“Are toi feeling alright sweetie? toi have been so obsessed with teaching him the joys of maiming and killing demons, do toi think that is healthy to teach a 10 an old boy?” Phoebe
“Maybe not, but I have to teach him something, I don’t know how to do anything else that he could put to some real use.” Paige
“She is just being nice, don’t pick on her mom.” Jacob
“Yeah don’t pick on me phoebe, ou Ill sick Jacob on you.” Paige
“LOL” Piper
“LOL” Leo
“I want to do something for toi guys, is that ok mommy?” Jacob
“Yes, as long as toi don’t orb us into another dimension.” Phoebe
I flip thru my book quickly and I find a spell.
“Omnus trepra gebrine” Jacob
The table, tableau magically clears off and all kinds of breakfast nourriture appears and everyone looks dumbfounded at my spell.
“Wow, Jacob toi are starting off toi role as a Mage quite nicely. Pass the pain Leo” Paige
“There are six kinds, which one do toi want?” Leo
“Whole honey wheat” Paige
Leo hands her a slice and she is content
“This is crazy honey; toi should have told us what toi were going to do before doing it. How are we going to store all of this food?” Piper
“It will disappear in one hour; only the nourriture toi eat will remain. Besides toi spend way too much time cooking and cleaning. Just enjoy yourself, don’t make me enchant toi to.” Jacob
“LOL” Paige
“The scrambled eggs are perfect, so fluffy and tender. I also like the Belgium gaufres with three different sauces. Nice touch!” Phoebe
“I l’amour the bacon, it is so crispy. The jus, jus de is like it was just squeezed.” Leo
“I like it when people are happy, it doesn’t get any simpler than that.” Jacob
Phoebe gave me a gentle Kiss and she hugged me.
I l’amour toi soo much, toi are such a good boy.” Phoebe
“Get over here and eat cole, it’s getting cold.” Jacob
“Are toi guys ok with that?” Cole
“Yes, before I turn toi into a toad, LOL” Jacob
“Lol” Phoebe
We all enjoy the nourriture for about 35 minutes and after we finish up I use some magic to clean the house and when piper comes back down from getting ready she is blown away par how clean it all looks.
“Honey, did toi do all of this? I thought we agreed toi wouldn’t use your powers too much?” Piper
“I just wanted toi to be free from cleaning today; toi use that as an excuse way too much.” Jacob
“We have told her that for months now, she won’t listen to reason.” Paige
“Yeah, so honey I was wondering If I could take a look at your back again, I need to see if it is healing properly.” Phoebe
“Ok, but it feels fine today, normally I would be in pain but today I am pain free. It is strange, No?” Jacob
Me and Phoebe walk upstairs and we go into the bathroom and she lifts up my chemise and looks at the bandage ad pulls it away.
“I don’t believe this, it’s impossible. It is completely Healed.” Phoebe
“We should celebrate, Pizza.” Jacob
“Maybe later, but I don’t believe it. Let’s go montrer my sisters.” Phoebe
We run downstairs and she shows piper and Leo and Paige and Cole.
“He is completely healed, how is that possible?” Phoebe
“Mage’s can heal themselves much plus quickly because they have such an intense connection to nature. This grants them a fast healing time and their magic becomes plus powerful with age.” Leo
“So when he hits the big triple digits he could become a god, theoretically” Paige
“Yes, which is why the elders sent us to him to make sure he stays good, if he were to turn evil it could undermine good forever.” Leo
“So I could become a god?” Jacob
“Not literally, but in a way toi would be nearly immortal and have unlimited powers.” Leo
“My head hurts” Jacob
“Lol, It will take time before toi understand things like Leo can.” Phoebe
“So what are we doing today, I was hoping to rent a movie I have wanted to see but because I lived on the streets I was unable to see it because i had no parent’s” Jacob
“What movie is it, we could rent a few tonight?” Piper
“Hellraiser 2, It is a scary movie filled with demons and a puzzle box that kills when opened.” Jacob
“Sounds terrifying, I’m in dude. I l’amour a good horror flick where people are being dismembered and maimed.” Paige
“Where did toi hear about that at? Doesn’t sound like a movie a ten an old should be seeing?” Piper
“What’s the big deal, I have seen people get blown up par demons and i am perfectly fine, besides he is going to be my Nephew and I am going to spoil him regardless. I say he can watch it.” Paige
“Fine but if he has nightmares toi can deal with him screaming himself awake.” Phoebe
“Fine, I bet toi he won’t have nightmares, because he is a big boy and a Mage.” Paige
“Don’t fight please, let’s just get along?” Jacob
“Oh, he is so cute. My little ambassador. We should get toi a tuxedo. toi would look so cute in it.” Phoebe
“When do I go to school?” Jacob
“Well we still have to talk to Darryl and then we have to enroll toi but soon hopefully.” Piper
“Can toi help me build something, Leo?” Jacob
“Sure, what were toi wanting to build?” Leo
“A big table, tableau with no legs, three times my size and it has to be exact.” Jacob
“Why no legs? How will toi sit at it?” Phoebe
“Oh mommy, toi are so silly sometimes. It is not for sitting at, it is for ascending.” Jacob
“You mean for your ritual, to become a full mage?” Leo
“Yes, I need it to be precise and without flaws. I need lots of chalk too and some white robes. I will need to make a staff sometime today.” Jacob
“Easy little man, we will get toi covered don’t worry. I for one am looking vers l'avant, vers l’avant to the ascension ritual. It should provide me a valuable insight into Mage Craft.” Paige
“We could run par a landscaping store and pick up a young tree, which would make a good staff.” Piper
“No, that is murder. It must be made of ironwood.” Jacob
“Lol. toi really are a friend of nature aren’t you?” Phoebe
“Well, I know a landscaping company that sells ironwood poles for a decent price, how long does it have to be exactly?” Piper
“About 4 feet tall, and if it has leaves on it then it would be better.” Jacob
“Ok, so can toi montrer us this ritual? montrer us how it works?” Phoebe
“Of Course, here (I flip open my book and I turn it to the first page and it is in Latin.)” Jacob
“It’s in latin sweetie.” Piper
I wave my hand over the page and it turns to English.
“That was unbelievable; toi are getting good at this.” Piper
“I build the table, tableau and draw a hexagonal spell joint, joint d’étanchéité with an inverted hexagram and I stand in the middle with my peignoir, robe and staff and I channel my energy through the joint, joint d’étanchéité and I am lifted into the air and a huge beam of white light will fill me with the knowledge and power. Then I ascend to a full mage.” Jacob
“You make it sound so cut and dry, how do toi feel about it?” Piper
“It is what I want, plus than anything in the world. I want to be able to protect my new family.” Jacob
Everyone tears up a little and Phoebe hugs me.
“I l’amour toi all so much and toi have been kind to me, on the streets people would throw things at me and make fun of me. But here I feel sûr, sans danger and loved. I want to help toi defeat the source and I want to montrer all of toi the things I have learned and the things I will learn soon.” Jacob
Everyone started to cry gently and I found myself in a great big ours hug.
“You are such a sweet, sweet boy. We l’amour toi too.” Piper
We all hug for a few moments and I wipe the tears from my eyes and I open my book to magical staff construction.
“I need to have this made exactly at 6:00 pm tonight, it is a mage’s staff and I need to summon the four elementals to imbue it with power. Water, Fire, Earth and wind. They will be difficult to find but I have a spell to summon each of them once I find their hiding place. They are known to trickery so I need to be careful.” Jacob
“What do they look like? They sound so cool.” Paige
“Here is a picture of them.” Jacob
I turn to the page on the back and it shows 4 elementals, one of them resembles a flame the size of a man and has a human head. One has the appearance of a whirlpool of water and has a female face in the center. One looks like a tornado and has a face in the center and the earth one looks like a humanoid made up of twigs and vines and mud.
“They look so cool, I will look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to speaking with one. Maybe they have a cool power they are willing to teach me.” Paige
“No, they only speak to mage’s. Sorry.” Jacob
“Oh dangit, oh well. Would toi be willing to ask them for me? I would repay toi quite handsomely.” Paige
“They do not like greedy people bugging them with demands for power; they would destroy everyone upon hearing it. They are quick to temper unless they are released as soon as possible.” Jacob
“So I guess that means no, Right?” Paige
“I am sorry, I wish I could but it is not possible.”Jacob
“It’s ok little dude, it’s not your fault.” Paige
“Well toi should probably get ready so we can go, ok?” Phoebe
“How? Change my clothes?” Jacob
“Yes and toi should take a douche and be sure to brush your teeth.” Phoebe
“Ok, I l’amour you.” Jacob
“I l’amour toi to sweetie, now hurry up and get ready.” Phoebe
I run up the steps and get ready while Phoebe talks to piper and Leo and Paige
“He is such a sweet boy; I am so lucky to be a mom to him. I don’t care if he isn’t mine. I l’amour him just the same.” Phoebe
“I know, that is one of the most wonderful things about adoption. The rewards are endless and in your case they really are. Think of the magic he could montrer toi and the powers he could help toi get” Paige
“Last thing I heard toi were an outlaw and toi disobeyed your parent’s, which worries me somewhat.” Phoebe
“Lol” Piper
“Is that all toi think about, getting new powers, Besides my SON is responsible enough not to give toi any magic toi are not ready for. He knows toi are way too gun ho on magic.” Phoebe
“I am not gun ho on magic, I just want to get to know how powerful his people were and to do that I am hoping he will teach me a few spells I can put to some real good use.” Paige
“Well hopefully he will teach the three of toi a few cool spells so demons will have a tougher time hunting us. I look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to teaching him about Mage’s; there is a lot he needs to know so he won’t make their mistake.” Leo
“Which mistake would that be?” Piper
“Becoming power hungry and using demonic magic, it is a real threat to him at such a young age.” Leo
“I hear that, well I think I am going to go check up on him, he is just too cute and I can’t stand to be away from him. I kept checking up on him during the night. He is so cute when he sleeps.” Phoebe
“Phoebe, I think toi are obsessing.” Paige
“No I’m not, he thinks of me as his mommy, which is just too cute and sweet.” Phoebe
“He is a sweetie, that’s for sure. Have toi decided what toi are going to do about Cole? Does he want to risk the potion Jacob told him about?” Piper
“He wants to start as soon as possible, as soon as Jacob finishes ascending to a full mage.” Phoebe
“It’s going to be so cool when he does the ritual. What kind of snacks should I make for us? It will be quite a show.” Piper
“I don’t think that is fair to him, he is not allowed to eat at all during the ritual ou he will fail. We should support him par not stuffing our faces while he is ascending. It would be kind of rude.” Leo
“You are so right, we should support him par stuffing our faces at around six then we will be able to make it through.” Piper
“Lol, good idea.” Phoebe
I walk down in a pair of jeans and a tank haut, retour au début on with a pair of new sneakers.
“Oh, toi look so cute. Come over here so I can see you.” Phoebe
I walk over to Phoebe and she spins me around and tells me it was a good choice and I pull out a pair of sunglasses and I put them on.
“Where did toi get those from, toi look like MacGyver. Lol” Phoebe
“I saw him on the télévision and I wanted to look like him so I conjured them. Do toi like them Mommy?” Jacob
“I l’amour them, toi look so handsome and toi are just going to make the ladies die.” Phoebe
“Dying is bad, don’t say that mommy.” Jacob
“LOL” PIPER LEO PAIGE PHOEBE
“Ok, I am sorry, can toi forgive me?” Phoebe
“Ok, I forgive toi but try to be plus positive. If anything they are going to find me yummy.” Jacob
“Lol, where did toi hear that word?” Phoebe
“From you.” Jacob
“Lol” Everyone
“Such a positive role model, I hope he doesn’t say anything like that at school. Can toi imagine the horror of having to get a call because he a dit his teacher was yummy? That would be hilarious.” Paige
“It would be kind of funny; But Maybe we should teach him words he should never say, just so we can avoid things like that.” Piper
“No, I think we should just wait for awhile. There is no point I giving him a gun if he doesn’t know how to use it anyways.” Phoebe
“I agree, so Jacob are toi ready to go out?” Piper
“Yes, let’s go.” Jacob
Me and Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Leo walk out to the car and we get in and drive to the police station
After 15 minutes we get there and Darryl is waiting outside smoking a cigarette.
“Hello Darryl, we need some help with something?” Piper
“Sure guys, just ask?” Darryl
“We need to go somewhere sûr, sans danger and talk, maybe out back behind Denny’s would be ok?” Piper
“Sure, just give me 5 minutes.” Darryl
We wait for a few minutes and I am leaning on a mur and I see him walking to us
“Hey guys, what’s up? Another demon toi need covered up?” Darryl
“Not quite, we were sent par the elders to find this little boy because he is a Mage and he is the last of his kind. We want to adopt him and as a matter of fact we need to adopt him. He doesn’t belong in the mortal world and if social services find him he will never be able to fulfill his destiny. The truth is that he thinks of Phoebe as his mom and he would be devastated if he was pulled away from her. He was raised and tortured par a demon his whole life so he does not have parents. Can toi help us?” Piper
“Boy toi guys give me tough ones. I think I can help but it will be difficult. Have toi tried using magic to accomplish it?” Darryl
“We can’t, it would be personal gain.” Piper
“We wouldn’t have bothered toi with this if it wasn’t important. This could affect the whole world, not just us. “Phoebe
“Is it alright if I talk to him for a second?” Darryl
“Sure, just don’t make sudden movements. He freaks out easily.” Phoebe
Darryl walks up to me and kneels down
“Hey little guy, do toi want to live with these people?” Darryl
“Yes, plus than anything. They are my family, and they have been so caring and nice to me. Please let me stay with them.(I run up to him and I hug him and cry begging him to let me stay.)” Jacob
Darryl starts to cry a little and he talks to me gently
“I don’t have much of a say in the matter but I promise toi I am going to do whatever it takes to let toi stay with them.” Darryl
I walk off with Paige and he talk to Phoebe and Piper
“He is such a nice boy, god I wish I could just snap my fingers, I would make his wish come true. I’ll do it. I can pull a lot of my weight with the department of social services. As far as I know it is plus than likely toi guys should be able to adopt him.” Darryl
“Thank toi Darryl, that’s all we ask.” Piper
“This is for toi to give to Sheila” Jacob
He looks dumbfounded
“Who’s Sheila?” Darryl
“Your wife silly” Jacob
“Can he read minds ou what?” Darryl
“Yes, kind of. Just take the blue rose and say thank you. He did go through a little trouble to make it.” Phoebe
“It’s a gift to say thank you. Mommy can we go now?” Jacob
“Yes just a second, go play with Paige for a second.” Phoebe
“Ok mommy” Jacob
“He is so sweet, I l’amour him so much. I hope this works out.” Phoebe
“How did he make a blue rose? I have never seen one this color before.” Darryl
“It is a spell he used and we need to make him realize magic cannot be used out in public.” Piper
“It was sweet of him, I will be sure to give it to her. Thanks little man.” Darryl
“Ok, honey I want toi to promise me that toi won’t use magic out in the open anymore ok. I am not mad ou anything it’s just that it could put mommy in danger and all of us in danger. Do toi promise me?” Phoebe
“I am sorry, I promise.” Jacob
“Good, Thank toi sweetheart.” Phoebe
“Can we please go now I gots stuff to get and not much time.” Jacob
“Hold your chevaux there, we are almost done.” Paige
“Ok, but I need to get started soon. And Leo don’t forget, I need your help.” Jacob
“I know Jacob, don’t worry it will happen, I promise.” Leo
We stand around a while longer while Darryl makes some calls and He tells Piper
“She told me they want to have a meeting at your house with 2 people from social services, they a dit if the meeting goes well they will sign the papers that will allow him to déplacer in with toi guys.” Darryl
“Thank toi so much, I hate to ask toi for stuff all the time. Thanks so much.” Piper
“It is no problem at all; he seems like a sweet kid. One quick question though, why is he so anxious to get going and what does he need to start?” Darryl
“Tonight at midnight he needs to perform a ritual to awaken his full power ou else he will be made a mortal. He is excited par it and so are we as a matter of fact.” Phoebe
“Can I come and watch, consider it my payment?” Darryl
“As long as Jacob says it is ok, salut honey can toi quit bouncing around long enough so mommy can ask toi a question?” Phoebe
“Yes, sorry mommy.” Jacob
“its ok sweetie, I’m not upset. Since Darryl helped us to allow toi to stay with us would it be alright if he comes for the ritual?” Phoebe
“OK, but he needs to be quiet because the elementals don’t like mortals talking too much, it gets on their nerves.” Jacob
Darryl and Phoebe laugh gently and he says thanks buddy
“I look vers l'avant, vers l’avant to it; it is at 12:00 right?” Darryl
“You should come at 11:30 so toi won’t be late.” Jacob
“I will buddy, thank toi so much for inviting me.” Darryl
“Well we gotta get going; he is starting to get a little hyper. He must have snuck some coffee from pipers stash.” Phoebe
“He better not have, little rug rat.” Piper
We get
