Charmed Without A Choice

[Prue's Empath]

OOC: Magic ,can I be Phoebe since I followed rules?

[~*Alicia*~]

Chris looked at Draydon and he realized he had no choice rather than let him in. He disliked the fact that he always hid something from them but apparently it was the same thing that all his family had hidden for years, and suddenly it all made sense why Draydon always got their mail or the weird things that they heard coming from his house, somehow everything pointed towards him.
"So, you're a witch, hah?" Chris said and opened the door so that Draydon would come in. He didn't want to let him in but he knew Piper would be really mad if he didn't.
"Why don't you sit there and I'll go and get my mom?" He said pointing the living room. When he was halfway upstairs he heard Piper and Leo sord of arguing so he thought it wouldn't be a time to bug in. He went back downstairs and saw Draydon. Apparently he had to go and talk to him.
"So, what do you want to talk about?" He said and sat on the couch across Draydon.

After waiting for a few seconds, Chris widened the gap in the door just enough to let Draydon through. Relieved, he walked through the opening and heard Chris tell him to wait in the licing room as he climbed the stairs to get Piper. He stopped half-way as he heard raised voices, turned around and walked back down the stairs. "So, what do you want to talk about?" Chris asked, sitting down across from Draydon. "Well..." Draydon said, wondering what he wanted to ask first, "I dunno, I've just never actually seen a demon, only read about them on the internet, and even then i wasn't sure if it was correct facts, I mean it is the internet. I've never been attacked by a demon, I guess I've flown under the radar for some time. I have practiced my powers whenever possible, but I've only known about all this stuff for two years. So I guess my first question is... what? What is all of this about? How do I defend myself if a demon attacks? I just want to know all about all of this." Draydon paused, knowing fully well that Chris couldn't explain all of this in a one sentence answer, this would take time.

[charmingsoul]

After Chris told Phoebe that he just wanted to have a look at Jake and that everything is ok he went into his bedroom.
"Eh? And what happened??", Phoebe said confused. But Chris was already in his bedroom, so he didn't hear her question.
Phoebe thought about following him, but than she decided to ask someone later. She went back into her room and slept a while.

When Paige heard a lot of noise in the manor, she woke up very fast. She prepared herself and went to Phoebes room.

"Phoebe??", she whispeered... "Phooeeebeee"... suddenly Paige began to knock at the door, she became louder and louder. "PHOEBE!!!"
After a while Phoebe opened dozily the door. "What's up?", Phoebe asked.
"What's up???!!! You slept, you wanted to wake me up if something happened!!", Paige said reproachful.
"Well, yeees... but nothing happened... well, i don't know WHAT exactly happened... but chris said that everything is fine and than he went away into his bedroom and i wanted to ask someone else later..."
"Nothing happened? And why is here such a noise?"

Suddenly both of them heard excited voices again. They looked at each other, nodded in agreement and went downstairs.

There they found Chris and Draydon. Chris seemed to feel unwell- and draydon also looked strange.

"I thought Chris hates Draydon", Paige asked insecure.
"Me too... Well, I guess we really have to talk with him- otherwise we don't understand anything anymore very soon, if nobody tells ous what happened."

The sisters went to Chris and Draydon. "Hey Draydon...", both of them said while they waved insecure to him.

"uuuhm... chris? Can we have a talk, now... please... well, i see that you talk to him right now... but it seems to me- no, to us... that many things happened and to be honest- we don't know anything and we feel a little bit ...", Phoebe stammered, "-...excluded",Paige said.
"yeaaah, thanks Paige, that was the word i searched for.... so, chris... could you tell us what happened- and what's happening here right now...?? Something seems to be strange.... "


Paige and Phoebe looked expactant at him and waited for some answers.

[~*Alicia*~]

Chris looked at his aunts, he sighed.
"Why don't you go upstairs to the attic? You'll get a better sight of what's going on." Chris looked at his aunts and realized that neither one of them was leaving, Chris turned to look at Draydon. "Would you excuse me?" He said stood up and whispered to his aunts. "Mom, Dad and Aunt Prue are upstairs in the attic with Jake, they can explain better what happened, now I am in the middle of something here, would you mind?" Chris said and then turned to look at Draydon. He gave his aunts a fierce look, the ones that Piper gave when she was starting to get mad. The look clearly said get out of here! He then looked back at Draydon.
"Um...sorry...where were we?" He said looking at him.

[charmedfan1211]

Before Chris had a chance to answer Draydon, Paige and Phoebe descended down the stairs.
Paige muttered something to Phoebe. Both of them looked odd, and insecure.
Chris got up and muttered something to the two women, to which they muttered back. A few more mutterings were exchanged before Chris finally sat down and said to Draydon, "Umm...sorry...where were we?"
Draydon stared back wondering where to start...again. "Ummmm.. well, do you want me to start at the begginning again or what?"

[~*Alicia*~]

Chris looked at him and suddenly remebered that Draydon wanted to know about demons.
"Sorry my mind is a little off today, me and my family are having a hard time. But let me see....demons....um" He stayed quiet for a while, thinking about what to say to Draydon. After a long pause he spoke. "Well, demons are...are...look, Draydon I can't really explain that. It is...hard and...complicated." Chris said hesitating. Demons have been in his life for so long he could barely remember when they weren't brought into a conversation. "All that I can tell you is that they usually go after us wanting our powers." He stood up and looked at Draydon. "Hold on, now I need my mom here!" He said and walked towards the stairs and shouted. "Mom!" Piper came downstairs and looked at Draydon.
"Hi, Draydon." Piper said.
"Mom, Draydon's also a witch and he wants to know about demons, I am positive that you'll be able to explain that to him better than me." Chris said and sat down again.
"So, you're a witch, hah?" Piper said. "Well, how long have you known?"

[charmingsoul]

Chris told Phoebe and Paige that they should go to the attic, because Piper, Prue and Leo could explain everything better than he. After this he went back to Draydon and gave both of them a grim look.

"He competes with his mother... the same fierce look", Paige whispered laughing to Phoebe. Phoebe smiled and than they went upstairs to the attic.

"So you guys, could you tell us please what happened, or do you want to -", Phoebe slowed down when she saw the three jakes. She looked stunned at him. "-... exclude us...", she stammered.

Paige also looked very shocked.

"Well, I guess you owe us an explanation... right now!", Phoebe said very loud and appalled.


But before someone was able to answer, Chris yelled for Piper and she went downstairs.

"Piper!!!", Phoebe said irritated. But it was too late, she already left the room.

"If someone of you is thinking about following her- forget about it. You'll all stay here until Phoebe and me know what's up here.", Paige said definitive after she woke up again from her shock.

[jakehalliwell]

(Sorry guys I was away for a while)


Jake(1) and Jake(2) had managed to be dragged upstairs into the attic relucattnly and not by choice by Prue who had orbed the pair into the room. The slightly distant Jake sat on the chair, arms folded, looking un amused while Jake(2) bounced on the spot, biting into a cookie.


Prue looked up at her two sisters and sighed. "Jake said a spell out loud and it split his soul into three, but into which parts I am not sure" sighed Prue as she flipped through the book.


"God, this is such a suck fest, can we please just move thing along, I could be outside in the real world having fun for once" snapped Jake(1) and the real Jake rolled his eyes. "Since when did I become such a bitc-Ow!" he yelled as Jake(2) hit him.

"That's a bad word! When you say bad words, santa cries!" stated Jake(2) as he pouted and Prue gave a nervous laugh as she looked at her sisters. "Okay, any bright ideas?"

[charmingsoul]

"Oh dear... this is a joke, isn't it?", Phoebe laughed nervous.

But when she looked into Prues eyes, she stopped laughing. She felt that she didn't feel very well. "I guess she feels bad, because she mabye blames herself for this...", Phoebe thought.

She went slowly to Prue, took her into her arms and whispered softly: "Don't blame yourself... things like this happen, it wasn't your fault..."

"Well, we'll make it... somehow... uhm... Paige, do you have any ideas?"; Phoebe asked.

"To be honest... no... isn't there a spell which makes it undone? Leo, do you have an idea, you usually know what to do... don't you??"

[jakehalliwell]

"Uh, screw this" grumbled Jake(1) as he got to his feet and twisted his hands. "My sense of fashion has turned to crap, give me something with a little more snap" he stated and his ordinary t-shirt and jeans turned into a sleevless zipped top, black in coloyr with it's collars up and a black and white arm bound on his wrist, a hand band with holes for his fingers on his left hand, black and white straps, a necklace with an upside down heart and tightly fitted black jeans with a silver and red belt around his waist with styled slip one, black and gold shoes.

"Better, now, if you exuse me, I'm going to find some actual fun" stated the rebelious duplicate and he suddenly dissapered in blue and white orbs, Prue too shocked to even react looked at the remaining Jakes, the original shocked and looking at the sisters. "Don't look at me! My clone did it!"


"Yeah but he is you, or at least a part of you, a supressed half, just like your sugar high duplicate over there" stated Prue as she pointed to the third Jake who was bouncing on the spot listening to pop music with the headphones.

[~*Alicia*~]

"Phoebe, it is not that simple you know?" Leo said looking at Phoebe and Paige. He then heard one of the Jakes talk and then saw him orb out. "OMG! Not again!" Leo said and looked at Prue. "Who's going to get him this time?" Leo said and looked at Paige and Prue, since they were the only other 2 that possesed tha power of orbing. He started to walk around the attic waiting for the response.

Meanwhile Piper and Chris were sitting in the living room, looking at Draydon. When they heard loud steps in the attic. Piper stood up.
"No, I'll go." Chris said and orbed to the attic. Piper looked at Draydon and gave him a smile.
"Would you excuse me for a sec?" Piper said and walked upstairs there she found only 2 Jakes, Phoebe, Paige, Prue, Chris who orbed in a min. ago and Leo who was walking really nervous all across the attic.
"What's going on here? Where is the other Jake?" She exclaimed.

[jakehalliwell]

"Okay, we need to calm down, I'll go get Jake the rebel, Leo, calm yourself, Piper, stop being...you and calm down along with Leo and Jake..and Jake, stay here."


"No arguments here" stated Jake but Jake(2) pouted and huffed. "I want some ice creeeammm! No cookies, no ice cream! No cookies! No...wait both! No, cake!"


Prue stared blanky before orbing away to try and find the rebelious Jake in a swirl of orbs. Jake(2) continued to bounce around the attic like a four year old as he munched on his cookie happily and Jake stared at his duplicate with totaly confusion and bewliderment.


A good few minutes and Prue orbed back, her hair sticking up like a mad man and she had dust on her.


"He blew me up" she blinked in suprise and Jake blinked. "I did?"

"Not only that but somehow he knew how to get to Magic School and has got all the teenagers to rebel and the school is in chaos. You mister are so in trouble when I get your soul in your body!" declared Prue as she pointed at Jake who blinked. "Me!? I didn't do anything!"


"Can we go see the zooooo now?" whined Jake(2) and Prue stared at the young acting Jake and flicked through the book. "I knew it, this duplicate spell splits the supressed personalities of the user, so rebel Jake and child like Jake are the ones that Jake...well...the original Jake, have supressed through his life."

[~*Alicia*~]

"Well, we can fix it, right?" Chris asked and looked at his parents and aunts.
"It is not that easy, Chris." Leo said and Chris looked at Piper.
"What did you do when Aunt Prue casted the spell?" Chris asked looking at his aunt and mother.
"Well, we didn't do anything, they vanished when they finished what they were brought to do." Piper said looking at Prue. "Can't you go and take him out of there?" Chris looked at his mother and took a deep breath.
"I'll go, I remember when I had a rebel face that I suppresed, maybe if I talk to him, I can get him here." He said looking at his parents. "Besides, if he gets violent I guess I'll be able to handle him." Chris said looking at his hands. And then orbed away. Piper looked at Leo.
"Do you think that he will able to handle Jake?" She said and looked at the other 2 Jakes.
"He is Chris, he is just like his mother, he can do everything. Right, Pru?" Leo said, hugged Piper and looked at Prue.

[charmingsoul]

"I think so too... all your sons are like you, sis", Phoebe laughed.

Paige heaved a sigh, sat down and held her head in her hands.

"Well, let's summarize all this stuff... Jake read a spell and tripled hisself with it... one jake is the real jake, one the rebellious Jake and one... the childish jake. And know the rebellious Jake is in the magic school and made all the students rebellious too?", Paige said disgruntled.
She looked at the faces of leo, piper, phoebe, jake, jake(2) and prue like someone would say that this all was just a joke- but her hope washed away by the look at their faces.

"So... it's just like always... great"; paige said with an ironic undertone. "And what are we going to do know? I mean, we should help Chris somehow... shouldn't we?"

[jakehalliwell]

Magic School when Chris arrived would be completely trashed, without loud music playing and hundreds of teeangers cheering and dancing and drinking, with Jake somwhere in the middle, dancing along to the music like a proffessional, his body in perfect rhyme with the music. One of the teachers who was still around ran through the corridor. "What is going on here!?" he cried and Jake turned to him and grinned and the teeangers yelling grew quiter as Jake pointed at the teacher.


"Let the object of objection become but a dream as I cause the scene to be un-seen" he cried and with that the teacher dissapered, quite literally and the teenagers cheered and went back to dancing and drinking and some fighting.


"Jake, can you think of any reason why these two would appear?" she asked and Jake shook his head as he watched his duplicate bounce all over the attic like a hyperactive five year old.


"No idea, I don't remember acting like either of them..."


"Well these sides of you were supressed so that explains that, but what I don't get it is why they came out.."

[~*Alicia*~]

Chris looked at the rebelious Jake, dancing and drinking in the middle of the crowd.
"Jake!" He shouted and approached him. He started to run towards him. "Jake! You're coming with me, now!" Chris shouted when he reached Jake. All the students looked at him. Chris looked at both of his hands. "Powers don't let me down now." He whispered.

Meanwhile Piper was walking back and forth, back and forth.
"Maybe they came out to express themselves and make them understood. And when they finish doing that, they will leave as easy as when they came out." Leo said and looked at Piper who stopped walking and looked at the real Jake.
"Jake, you have to think why this sides of you came out, and what do they want." Piper said. "The answer is in you."

[jakehalliwell]

"Right now I think we need to trust Chris, if things get out of hand we will help, but right now it's best we all don't go at once" stated Prue to Paige.

"I have no idea, I didn't even know that-" he trailed off and suddenly stumbled backwards slightly, but Prue quickly grabbed his back and slowly eased him onto the chair, Jake's eyes fluttered dimly and he looked slightly dazed.


"His soul has been seperated so his body is weakening, it's not life threatening but he won't be able to do things properly into we get all of his soul back together" stated Prue and the bouncy Jake curiously looked at his real self as he poked his head curiously.



"Oh? Says you and what army?" asked Jake as he jumped from the banister he had been on and walked over towards Chris, the students looking at Chris, ready to follow Jake's example.


"I am finally free and I am not going back, you on the other hand, can go back" he stated and held his hand out and a ball of dark fire began to form in his hand, clearly this Jake had more power over his mailpulation of darkness and was creating dark elelemnts with it as he thrusted his palm in Chris's direction, firing the two dark, blue fire balls at his older brother.

[~*Alicia*~]

Chris moved the 2 fireballs with his power and looked at Jake.
"I know how you feel, I know how mad are you, I get it and the anger you feel right now makes you want to hate everyone, but that's not the answer, Jake." He looked at his brother and then at everyone. "I know who you're mad at...you're mad at life because of everything you went through, you're mad at your foster parents for not being here right now, but most of all you're mad at your real family for not being there for you, for not protecting you, for giving you up." He stopped and swallowed and looked at his brother, he knew the part about giving him up was just a lie but he had to say it, no matter how much it hurt inside.

Piper was still walking up and down and then remembered that Draydon was still downstairs.
"OMG! Draydon!" She suddenly yelled and ran downstairs, there she found Draydon sitting in the living room. She looked at him.
"Draydon, I am so sorry, but today it's a dificult day for me and my family. Can you come another day? I promess I'll make it up to you, Chris and me."

[jakehalliwell]

Jake snorted at Chris's comment but it became clear in his eyes that a part of him had been angered by the older one's words.

"You just don't get it do you, I am Jake's inner desires, I am his ID, just like Prue, Jake was the one who kept me on hold for so long, we were so angry at the world, but we were so terrified, we went through foster parent after foster parent, too afraid of being abandoned that we did not cause a fuss, we did not get to be a teenager, I was held back, I am who Jake should have been growing up, the rebelious kind and I am not going back" he yelled and flung his hand at Chris, sending black lighting towards him.


Prue raised an eyebrow at Piper's fleeing form but paused suddenly. "I can feel it, Jake's anger, or at least his inner beings anger, I guess it's because we're related that I have a stronger connection then most whitelighters...someone should go help Chris."
