Torn in Two

[staceface510]

We’ve all read stories about Chris, Wyatt and Phoebe’s children in the future but what about Paige? Was she cursed to live a lonely live? To me, no, she wasn’t. She married a wonderful male witch and had twin girls. They were perfect to her. Paris was born first and as she grew up she had the powers to orb, telekinesis, and premonitions. Parker was second and she could also orb but she could also conjure. They grew up happily until one day their older cousin, Wyatt, turned evil. One year later, when they were ten, he brutally murdered their mother and aunts. They drifted apart then. Paris turned more towards the rest of the family and Parker kept to herself. This is Parker’s story.



Parker and Paris sat on the Manor’s living room floor playing with their dolls. Paige smiled as she watched her daughters. They were her world.
“I’ll be right back,” Paige told her daughters as she walked out of the room. Paige walked into the kitchen and saw a demon shimmer into it behind Piper.
“Knife!” Paige yelled throwing it at the demon. It hit him dead on but not before he stabbed Piper. Piper sank to the floor as the demon burst into flames.
“Leo!!” Paige cried out as she ran for her older sister.
“Paige!!” Phoebe called from the conservatory. Another demon had shimmered in there and was attacking Phoebe.
Paige ran to her other sister praying Leo would heal his wife. Paige burst into the room and telekinesis orbed the couch on top of one demon. The commotion had finally caught the attention of the children in the house. Paris and Parker walked into the room and stood there shocked. Melinda came running downstairs with Chris on her heels. They all got there in time to see Phoebe get stabbed by a demon.
“MOM!” Melinda cried out running over to her. She was then blocked by some dark orbs.
“No little cousin. I want you to see her suffer,” Wyatt said cruelly.
“NO!!” Melinda screamed as she watched her mother died. Wyatt laughed evilly as he easily tossed Melinda across the room.
During all of this Paige was still fending off her own demons. She was pissed off which helped her kill more demons.
“Aunt Paige, just give up. You’ll never be able to beat them,” Wyatt said smirking.
Paige then defiantly defeated the last demon easily and faced her oldest nephew.
“How could you do this?” Paige demanded.
“Because I can. Say good-bye to your family,” Wyatt said throwing a conjured atheme at Paige where it hit her dead on.
“MOM!” Paris cried as she went to run over to her. Parker stood there in shock. How could her cousin do this?
“Not yet,” Wyatt said stopping his cousin in mid-track and froze her there. Paige life essence finally left her a few seconds later.
”Now that was fun,” Wyatt said.
“YOU BAST..” Chris yelled before Wyatt cut him off.
“You shouldn't use that language in front of our cousins. Well I best be going,” Wyatt said as he orbbed off to his mansion.


5 years later, Parker woke up in a cold sweat.
“Paris, I had that dream again,” Parker said to a figure across the room in another bed.
“The one of mom dying?” Paris asked sleepily. She sat up which revealed that she looked exactly like Parker. Same build, same color of deep brown hair, and same bright hazel eyes. Only difference was that Paris’s hair was past shoulder length and very girly while Parker’s was cut shorter and chopped into layers.
“Yes,” Parker said ashamed. She just couldn’t get over her mother dying. No matter how hard she tried. The next day Wyatt took her father and Phoebe’s husband’s life causing Paris, Parker and Melinda to be orphans.
“It’s ok Parker. Mom is always watching over us,” Paris said trying to comfort her twin but was slowly drifting back off to sleep.
Parker sighed. How did this happen? Her and Paris use to be so close but now Paris wouldn’t even stay up to talk to her. Parker got up and walked out of the room and out into Chris’s apartment’s main room. Wyatt took the manor from them about 4 years ago so all 4 of them shared this apartment. Parker walked out onto the balcony and looked out. She felt so alone. Not even her own family was with her.
“Hey, what are you doing out of bed?” A comforting voice came from behind her. It was Chris. Being the oldest at 21 he had to be the parents of the rest of them.
“I had that dream again,” Parker answered staring out over the city. It was once rather beautiful but now it looked ruined.
“Parker. It’s ok,” Chris said hugging her. He had always felt like an older brother not a cousin to her.
“No it’s not. I just stood there and let her die,” Parker sobbed into her cousin’s chest. He was a good foot taller than her but you could easily see the family resemblance in them.
“You were only 10. I could have helped. I was 16,” Chris said attempting to comfort his cousin.
“I still could have helped her! Paris tried to go help her. I just stood there staring,” Parker continued sniffing.
“It’s ok!” Chris said pulling away from their hug and looking Parker in the eyes. She seemed so sad and lonely. No matter how much Chris reached out to her Parker remained distant.
“No it’s not,” Parker answered looking away. She always felt like Chris wished he could read minds like Melinda. She went back to looking at the city.
“You should really get back to bed,” Chris said after a few minutes.
“I won’t be able to go back to sleep,” Parker answered in a monotone voice.
Chris sighed. “Parker, why are always so distant?” He finally asked.
“What?” Parker asked looking at Chris confused.
“You seem so distant. You are always thinking and rarely talk unless asked a question,” Chris explained.
“I’m sorry I don’t talk as much as Paris,” Parker spat bitterly. “I’m sorry I can’t fit into this supposedly happy family. But guess what! We have no reason to be happy. 3 of us are orphans, you are a half orphan. We are barely making ends meet and our own family is the source of all evil,” Parker continued. It felt good to vent.
“Parker!” Chris scolded. She seemed so bitter. He then continued, “We aren’t all happy. But we need to stick together if we want to make it in this world.”
“Whatever,” Parker said leaning on the railing and going back to looking at the city.
Chris sighed and left her alone on the balcony. He knew he wouldn’t be able to convince her. Why did Halliwell’s have to be so stubborn?
Parker continued staring out until the sun rose. It made the world look slightly better. Parker sighed loudly and went inside to change.

“Hey, there you are. I wondered where you went,” Paris said cheerfully when Parker entered the room. Paris was dress in somewhat cheerful clothing for school. School was still ran for students who thought they could risk going outside or those who could protect themselves.
“Yeah…I had to go think,” Parker mumbled as she pulled on a black tee shirt and darker blue jeans. They may be twins but they were getting more different by the day.
“Do you have to dress so depressing?” Paris asked while she put on some make up.
“Do you have to dress so bright?” Parker retorted walking out of the room. Paris sighed and put the finishing touches on and walked out into the main room.
“What’s for breakfast?” She asked Melinda who was in the kitchen.
“Whatever you fix yourself,” Melinda said smirking. Melinda looked strikingly like her mother. Their powers were even similar. Only Melinda had telepathy instead of empathy.
“Thanks Chef Melinda,” Paris said smirking as she fixed a bowl of cereal and sat down next to her sister. Parker was quietly reading the paper which was relatively thin.
“Can I see that after you?” Paris asked cheerfully. It was too much for Parker to bear.
“Here,” Parker said passing it to her sister and finishing off her cereal quickly. She then walked off to their room again. She liked finishing getting ready on her own.
Parker walked out into the living room and waited on her sister and cousin to get ready. They took forever. Their hair and makeup had to be just right. Parker didn’t care. She purposely cut her hair short so she wouldn’t have to worry about it.
“Come on!” Parker cried out for the 3rd time. They would have to orb if they didn’t get moving.
“I’m coming!” Paris and Melinda yelled from their rooms. Parker rolled her eyes. They should have been twins, not her and Paris. A few minutes later they walked out looking great.
“I’ll meet you guys there,” Parker said orbbing off. Paris grabbed Melinda’s hand and orbbed them to an alley a block away from school. Paris and Melinda got there first and started walking off not even waiting for Parker. A second later Parker appeared and saw her sister and cousin walk around the corner not waiting for her.
“Thanks,” Parker muttered sarcastically. She started off when she heard somebody behind her. She glanced behind her and saw something move. Parker turned around and got ready to fight.
“Who’s there?” Parker asked bravely.
“Your worst nightmare,” A demon answered showing himself. He quickly threw a fireball. Parker orbbed in place and quickly conjured her own fireball and threw it back.
It grazed the demon’s shoulder.
“Is that all you got?” He asked telekinesisly throwing her into the wall. Parker hit it hard but she quickly got up and conjured a sword. She charged the demon and stabbed him in the stomach.
“Now this is a fight,” He said throwing her backwards. He pulled out the sword himself and started to swing it at Parker. Parker quickly made it deconjure and conjured herself one. She swung it hard and it made contact with the demon again. With his last bit of strength he threw a fireball. It hit Parker’s arm.
“d**n...” She muttered as she fell down.
“Help!” Parker cried out in pain. She hated asking for help but she needed it. She heard orbs and turned to face them. But right after she saw who it was she blacked out.

[staceface510]

A hour or so later Parker finally woke up. She sat up and looked around. She was in the manor.
Oh no… Parker thought seeing as Wyatt lived in the manor now. She most likely only had a few more minutes of life.
“My master, she has awaken,” A random person in the room called out. Parker blinked to try and clear her vision. She had a major headache, most likely from the fall, but her arm was healed now.
“Thank you Drake, you are dismissed,” Wyatt said walking into the room. The man nodded and walked out. It was now just Wyatt and Parker.
“What do you want?” Parker asked bravely.
“What? No hello for your dearest cousin?” Wyatt asked pretending to be hurt.
“No, why did you kidnap me from that alley?” Parker asked.
“You asked for help,” Wyatt answered plainly. He then sat on a chair across from Parker.
“I meant from my family,” Parker replied coldly.
“I didn’t see any other family there,” Wyatt said as a fact.
“They would have come,” Parker said but she thought differently. Why did he come first to her? Her sister and cousin were only a block away.
“Are you sure of that?” Wyatt asked trying to make her reconsider it.
“Positive…” Parker said more confidently than she felt. They probably would of found her, later rather than sooner.
“You do remember I can read minds right?” Wyatt asked smirking. Crap… went through Parker’s mind right then. That caused Wyatt to smirk a little wider.
“So why not just leave me there for one of your demons to kill?” Parker asked wondering why Wyatt had brought her back to the manor.
“Cause I have plans for you. I’ve been watching Chris’s apartment very closely lately. You don’t fit in do you?” Wyatt asked almost caringly.
“I fit in quite well thank you,” Parker said defensively.
“But do you really? Why didn’t Melinda or Paris wait for you in that alley? Why is Chris always working and Melinda and Paris are always out somewhere, leaving you all alone?” Wyatt asked.
Parker sat on the couch thinking. She knew they loved her, but why did they always exclude her from things? She made some effort early on to be in their presence but they didn’t care.
“They don’t care about you. They only keep you around to conjure things they need,” Wyatt said. He had been watching them long enough to know that Parker often conjured food or other necessities for them when times were rough.
“Come live with me. I’ll care for you. I’ll raise you to be strong and powerful,” Wyatt continued making Parker confused.
“No…I can’t. I’m good,” Parker said confused. She rubbed her head as Wyatt implanted some visions in her head. It was Parker sitting alone in her room while the rest of her family was out in the living room laughing. It was Parker walking out into the living room and the other three leaving.
“Stop!” Parker said opening her eyes. She was ready to cry but she wouldn’t do that in front of Wyatt. “You can’t force me to join you,” Parker continued standing up ready to orb out.
“My offer still stands,” Wyatt said as Parker orbbed out. He then stood up and smirked. He would get her on his side no matter what. She was the key to his plans. Wyatt soon dark orbbed out.

Parker orbbed into Chris’s apartment.
“Chris!!” Parker yelled out. She soon heard footsteps from down the hall.
“Parker, wait, shouldn’t you be at school?” Chris asked,
“I was going to school but then a demon attacked and...” Parker managed to get out before being interrupted.
“Parker! Get your butt back to school and stop cutting classes,” Chris scolded his youngest cousin.
“CHRIS!! I was attacked by a demon and then...” Parker attempted to continue with her story.
“Parker Janelle Halliwell,” Chris scolded and then continued, “You orbbed your butt back to school now!”<br>“But Chris!” Parker said almost pleading. He needed to hear her story.
“Go!” Chris commanded. Parker sighed and orbbed out.

Parker appeared in the park near the apartment. Maybe Wyatt was right. Maybe they didn’t care about her. Maybe…they didn’t love her either. She was just there to conjure food for them. She doubt they would remember her birthday if she didn’t share it with Paris. Parker sighed and started walking down the path. Nobody was in the park anyway. Wyatt had taken it over awhile ago and he scared all the families and the bums away.
“Hello little cousin,” Wyatt said from a park bench. He knew she would end up her sooner or later.
“Hi,” Parker said sitting down on a bench across from him. Why did he have to be right?
“You ready to join me yet?” Wyatt asked rather casually.
“No,” Parker said immediately but she didn’t know if she meant it. She was good and would always.
“You sound so confident, but your thoughts say something else,” Wyatt said with a slight smirk.
“Just stay out of my mind,” Parker snapped.
“Getting angry are we? You’re just mad I pointed out the obvious truth to you,” Wyatt said as the smirk got wider.
“Shut up! Just shut up!! You are trying to confuse me! I’m good…I’m good,” Parker said grabbing her head. When she had finally snapped out of it, Wyatt’s arm was around her almost sympathy like.
“Better?” He asked.
“I will be when your arm is off of me,” Parker said shrugging it off.
“Fine, I should be going anyway. The manor is always open for you,” He added before orbbing off.
Parker sighed and checked her watch. She could head back to the apartment if she wanted but instead she stayed there and thought. Why was Wyatt trying to turn her? If wasn’t like she was the strongest. The others had at least 3 powers. All she had was conjuring and orbbing. So the reason had to be her conjuring. She knew she was about the only conjuror left seeing as Wyatt killed most of them so they couldn’t join together and conjure a force of magic to defeat him. But why spare her? She would have been easy kill. Parker sighed and decided to orb home. Maybe Chris would listen to her now.

Love it Stace this is great more soon!

Thanks!

“Why haven’t you killed her yet? You know she could easily defeat you,” Price, Wyatt’s advisor, asked his master.
“Cause if I do that then she can’t help me at all!” Wyatt answered angrily. Parker was more stubborn than he thought. He didn’t have much more time before the prophecy would be fulfilled.
“But if you kill her then she would be no threat and then the world is easily yours,” Price argued.
“But a dead witch can’t help me! I don’t care that she could kill me. I would kill her first anyway,” Wyatt said confidently.
“So do you think she will join you in time?” Price asked.
“She will. She is breaking down slowly. I will get her by the end of the week,” Wyatt said and then added,” Quiet. She’s back in the apartment.” Wyatt fixed his gaze on a TV on the far wall. It was enchanted to show what was happening in Chris’s apartment.

Parker orbbed into the apartment and found it was empty.
“Surprise, surprise,” Parker muttered to herself. Melinda and Paris were most likely hanging out with their friends in the protected areas and Chris was probably off vanquishing one of Wyatt’s servants. Parker walked over to the couch and practically collapsed on it. She picked up the remote and turned the TV on. She was flipping for something good on when she heard orbs.
“Where did you go? Paris and Melinda said they didn’t see you all day at school,” Chris said walking towards Parker and sitting down next to her.
“I orbbed to the alley and was attacked. You would have known that if you would have listened to me earlier!” Parker said still flipping through the channels.
“What? Why did you call for help?” Chris asked surprised. No wonder Parker was so distant. Chris never listened to her. He always assumed things.
“I did…somebody else answered it,” Parker answered finally finding a channel.
“Who? Did Leo, Paris or Melinda come help you?” Chris asked hoping that it wasn’t who he thought it was.
“No…” Parker said dragging it out like she was hiding something.
“How! How did Wyatt answer your cry for help? You have to have a heart to hear those,” Chris said bitterly. How did he evil brother hear his cousin when he didn’t?
“I don’t know. I remember seeing somebody orb in and I blacked out. When I woke up I was in the manor,” Parker answered turning off the TV and facing Chris.
“What did he ask you?” Chris asked Parker staring into her eyes.
“He wanted to know if I fit in here. He then tried to convince me to join him. And when I orbbed out after you yelled at me, he tried again,” Parker said remembering the visions Wyatt planted in her head.
“But you resisted right?” Chris asked even though he knew the answer. Or at least he hoped he did.
“Yeah...but I think he might try again,” Parker said looking down.
“We won’t let him get you,” Chris said confidently. They needed Parker. Not for her conjuring but because she was part of what little family they had left.
“Thanks…I’m going to go to my room now. Call me when dinner is ready,” Parker said getting up and walking down the hall to her and her sister’s room. Parker opened the door and went to lie down on her bed but somebody was already sitting on it.

“Wy…” Parker got out before Wyatt silenced her magically.
“Now, Parker, you don’t want Chris hearing us now do you?” Wyatt asked smirking. He then let her speak again. She felt like screaming for Chris but she decided against it. She walked over to Paris’s bed and sat down on it. It was almost too much pink for her to stand.
“I’m guessing I’m on your bed,” Wyatt said almost laughing at Paris’s frilly pink pillow.
“How could you tell?” Parker said sarcastically.
“So have you thought about my offer?” Wyatt asked staring down Parker. He wanted to get some deeper thoughts but she wasn’t letting him. She was smart for a witch her age and she learned quickly. She would be the perfect pupil.
“I have and I still decline. I assume you saw what Chris and I talked about,” Parker said confidently.
“I saw it. But you didn’t see this,” Wyatt said implanting a false vision in Parker’s mind.

Chris was in the kitchen talking with Melinda.
“We have to save Parker. Wyatt is trying to take her away from us,” Chris said hitting his hand on the table.
“No! He can’t have her! We need her,” Melinda replied almost too emotional.
“You’re right. I might actually have to buy food if he got her,” Chris said.
“Yeah…but then there would only be 3 of us in this cramped apartment,” Melinda replied.
“Melinda! How could you say that?” Chris asked and then continued, “This apartment isn’t cramped.”<br>
Parker came out of the vision almost ready to cry. They both used her! She was just here to conjure food for them.
“Want to come see how life is in the manor?” Wyatt asked standing up and extending his hand out to Parker. Parker bit her lip nervously and stood up. She had so many thoughts going in her head. But finally she placed her hand in his.

[staceface510]

“Dinner!” Chris called. He heard two comings shout from the living room. But he didn’t hear one from Parker and Paris’s room. Paris and Melinda walked into the kitchen and sat down in front of a plate.
“Where’s Parker?” Chris asked concerned.
“I haven’t seen her since this morning,” Paris answered getting some mash potatoes.
“She went into your guy’s room around 5,” Chris said crossing his arms.
“I’ll go check for her,” Melinda said getting up. Melinda walked out of the kitchen and down the hall to Parker and Paris’s bedroom.
Melinda knocked on the door and said, “Parker.” She got concerned when she didn’t hear anything. Melinda opened the door and started to go inside. Melinda saw an empty room and she sensed that evil had been in here.
“Chris! She’s not in here!” Melinda called out as she ran to the kitchen.

“Wow…this place seems different,” Parker said as she walked on the second floor with Wyatt.
“Really?” Wyatt asked and then continued, “This room can be yours.” It was Phoebe’s old room.
“Oh…what about my things?” Parker asked. They had orbbed off after she had accepted Wyatt’s offer and she left all of her things at Chris’s apartment.
“You can go get them after you meet the council,” Wyatt said walking downstairs to the conservatory.
“Ok,” Parker said following him. The manor looked so different even though Wyatt kept it basically the same. Parker was guessing that evil caused the manor to seem darker. Parker kept close to Wyatt downstairs seeing as plenty of evil was there. She still felt like she was good. What was she getting herself into?
“Take a seat on my right side,” Wyatt said sitting down at a long rectangular table. Even though was this generations King Arthur, he ignored the round table. He wanted to be the best, not share it with everyone. Parker did as she was told as a demon spoke up.
“But sire, that’s my seat,” The demon complained.
“Not now,” Wyatt said flicking his wrists and the demon exploded into flames.
“Anybody else want to complain?” Wyatt asked as the whole room shook their heads no. Wyatt smirked and continued, “Then sit.” The demons and warlocks did as they were told silently.
“I would like to introduce you to my cousin, Parker. She is a conjurer,” Wyatt said as the rest of the table bowed their head slightly or smirked. Parker wondered why he had to include she was a conjurer. Wyatt continued on with the meeting and Parker never spoke up. She listened in to them divide the city and Wyatt assigned a few witches that must be killed. Parker almost couldn’t stand them talking about this so emotionlessly.
“Parker, you must be thirsty. Why don’t you go with Olivia and get a special drink from her in the kitchen,” Wyatt suggested after the meeting was over and most of them demons had teleported away.
“Ok,” Parker said standing up and following Olivia.
“Here you guy, honey. This will make you feel better,” Olivia said handing Parker a cup with foul smelling stuff inside. Parker took a drink and coughed.
“Ewww…what is this stuff?” Parker asked with a disgusted look on her face.
“An old family recipe of mine. It may taste disgusting but you will feel better after drinking it all,” Olivia said getting some herbs together. Parker figured she had to be Wyatt’s cook. Parker took a deep breath and drank it all in one gulp. She swallowed and looked at Olivia.
“Wow…I do feel better,” Parker said. She felt calmer and more at ease in the manor. She also couldn’t believe how she thought Wyatt killing witches was evil. It made perfect sense now.
“That’s the reply I like to hear. Now hurry to the living room where Wyatt is waiting for you,” Olivia said getting some pots out. Parker nodded and walked out to the living room.
“You feel better now?” Wyatt asked smirking slightly.
“Tons,” Parker said sitting down across from Wyatt.
“That’s what I want to hear. Now do you want to head to Chris’s apartment to get your things?” Wyatt asked.
“Sure…but I don’t want to talk to any of them yet,” Parker said. She didn’t think they would understand her decision.
“I understand. Let’s see if they are there,” Wyatt said waving his hand and the TV turned on. Parker watched the TV and saw that Paris was home in the living room. Parker smirked and orbbed out to her old room.

Once in Paris’s room Parker conjured a huge suitcase and started throwing things in it. She mainly threw in things that had memories and a few favorite clothes. She could always conjure more clothes later. Parker then heard somebody walking down the hallway. Parker quickly zipped up the suitcase and was ready to orb when the door opened.
“I knew you were in here!” Paris said and then asked, “Why do you have a suitcase?”<br>“Uhh…cause I need my things,” Parker said about ready to orb off when Parker grabbed her hand and got a premonition.
“YOU JOINED HIM!” Paris screamed. How could her twin do that to her?
“Yeah, so what?” Parker said leaning on her bed post.
“So what? He’s evil!!” Paris continued not believing this.
“Yeah, well, now I am too. Now if you excuse me, I don’t want to be late for dinner,” Parker said orbbing off.
“CHRIS!!” Paris yelled as Parker orbbed to the manor.

[Astral Echo]

Fantastic, More Soon!

Parker appeared in her new room and started unpacking. Parker then started looking at the walls. They seemed so bare. Parker smirked and chanted “Bare walls no more, fill it with things galore!” Parker watched as the walls turned a deep blue and filled with posters of her favorites bands.
“Not bad,” A voice said from her door way.
“Thanks,” Parker said turning to her doorway. It was Price. Parker didn’t trust him. Then again who could she trust?
“Wyatt would like to see you when you are done unpacking…or redecorating,” Price said before leaving Parker’s new room.
Parker looked around her room and started unpacking her old clothes into the closet. She would conjure some more later. Parker then started downstairs when somebody orbbed into the foyer.
“Parker! You’re coming with me,” Chris ordered his youngest cousin.
“No she’s not,” Wyatt said appearing from the living room and facing his little brother.
“Yes she is,” Chris said forcefully in Wyatt’s direction. He was taking Parker home no matter what.
“No I’m not. I’m not going back to your apartment!” Parker said walking down the stairs and facing Chris.
“Parker, we need you!” Chris said almost pleading.
“To conjure food? Go join the bums outside of McDonalds to get some,” Parker said coldly.
“What?” Chris asked confused and then continued, “We don’t need you for your conjuring. We need to because you’re still part of our family.”<br>“She’s part of my family now. Now leave our home,” Wyatt said putting his arm around Parker and talking to Chris like he really was a bum and not his brother.
“Parker, come back. Can’t you remember the true Wyatt? The one that kills innocent people for fun and uses people for his own personal gain!” Chris said almost pleading with his cousin.
“GO!” Wyatt said pointing to the front door which opened and Chris went flying out it. Chris then stubbornly orbbed in only this time Paris and Melinda appeared with him.
Melinda and Paris grabbed Parker to orb off to the apartment but Parker outsmarted them. Right before they grabbed her arms she slipped down and spun around. They both fell to the ground not expecting that. Parker then conjured some crystals and placed them around her cousin and sister. Parker smirked as they stared at her in disbelief.
Meanwhile Chris was busy with Wyatt. Wyatt kept throwing energy balls at Chris but Chris was rather good at avoiding them. Chris then took the offensive and telekinesisly threw Wyatt across the room. Wyatt got up and was pissed. He didn’t think his brother was that powerful.
“Wait. Don’t kill him yet,” Parker said as some good appeared in her.
“Fine,” Wyatt said before throwing Chris out the door again only this time making sure it hurt.
Parker kicked away one crystal and instructed “Orb!”<br>“Not without you,” Paris said looking her twin in the eyes looking for good. Parker quickly conjured a sword and put it on Melinda’s neck.
“Orb,” Parker repeated holding the sword steady. Paris looked at her sister one last time and grabbed her cousin’s hand. They orbbed off.
“Not bad,” Wyatt said to his little cousin. She impressed him. Only one part bothered him still. Parker smirked as she deconjured the sword.
“I think this calls for a drink. Olivia!” Wyatt called out. Olivia appeared with two drinks on a tray. She gave Wyatt a red- black colored drink while Parker got a pure black one.
“Here’s to a life of evil,” Wyatt toasted holding up his drink.
Parker then added, “Here’s to power.” They tapped their glasses and Parker took a sip of hers. It was the same drink she had early. It didn’t taste much better either.
“What is this?” Parker asked after her sip with a revolted look on her face.
“A soothing drink. It will calm all your nerves and all your doubts,” Wyatt answered before finishing off his drink. He then added, “I would finish that if I were you.”<br>Parker sighed and chugged the rest of the drink down. But she had to admit. She did feel better and she didn’t feel bad about almost killing her cousin now.
“Follow me. I have something to give to you since you did so well today,” Wyatt said heading up the stairs with Parker on his heel.

“That little bit..,” Melinda started before Chris cut her off.
“She still has good inside of her. She wouldn’t let Wyatt kill me. I have a feeling he has something helping him turn her. I just don’t know what,” Chris said pacing in the living room.
“Good? She had a sword to Melinda’s throat!” Paris said pissed off. Her own twin outsmarted her and then she threatened to kill her cousin!
“But she didn’t swing it. I think she is just acting evil and she isn’t really truly evil yet,” Melinda added to the conversation sitting down on the couch next to Paris.
“I agree. The sooner we get her out of there, the better,” Chris said as he continued pacing.
“But how? Wyatt must have had at least 20 bodyguards downstairs alone!” Paris asked. This seemed more and more hopeless to her.
“We could draw her out. Like set a trap for her,” Melinda said thinking out loud.
“Draw her out with what? I don’t think cheese will work,” Paris said sarcastically.
“Maybe a sister will,” Chris added to Melinda’s idea. Melinda and Chris then looked at Paris together.
“What? Oh come on! I don’t want to be the bait!!” Paris whined even though she knew it wouldn’t work.
“Well she certainly seemed to hate you them most,” Melinda said in a matter of fact way.
“What?” Paris asked sadly and confused. She never did anything to Parker to make her hate her. Maybe dislike her for a few hours but never hate her forever.
“I got a lot of evil thoughts directed towards you,” Melinda answered looking at her younger cousin.
“Oh,” Paris said looking down. What caused her sister to turn?
“So you in for the plan?” Chris asked Paris from across the room.
“Yeah,” Paris answered meeting Chris’s eyes.
“Ok, so here’s the plan,” Chris said walking over to his cousins with an idea to get Parker back.

[staceface510]

“Nice throw,” Wyatt commented as Parker easily threw a book out the attic window.
“Thanks. This power rocks!” Parker said smirking as she decided to juggle a few random things in the attic.
“You will learn to do more than that soon enough. But for now, you should head down to your room,” Wyatt said almost parent like.
“Fine. I need to continue working on it anyway,” Parker said orbbing out of the attic. Right when she did that, a demon shimmered in and put her arms around Wyatt seductively.
“I thought that brat would never leave. I thought I would never get a moment alone with you,” The demon said caressing Wyatt and kissing him.
“That brat is key to my plans. But since we have a moment…,” Wyatt said kissing her and orbbing off with her.
Parker orbbed in right after that to find the attic empty. She sighed.
“Where have I seen this before? Maybe I’m meant to be alone…” Parker thought sadly. Parker wandered over to the book which was open. Now that Wyatt was evil the book turned evil with him. Parker saw her name in the entry which immediately caught her eye.
“Excuse me. But who the hell are you?” A voice from the door said jerking Parker away from reading. The person walked through the door to reveal a rather good looking guy. He was an almost 6 foot, brown hair, stunning green eyes type of guy.
“Parker,” Parker answered taking in this guy but not letting on that she thought he was hot.
“Well Parker, why aren’t you downstairs participating in the plotting?” The guy asked walking closer to Parker and trying to see what she was looking up. Parker quickly slammed the book shut.
“Because I’m up here reading,” Parker answered coolly and then asked,” Who are you?”<br>“Shawn,” The guy answered staring into her eyes.
Parker closed her mind quickly and said, “Nice telepathy. Try it on a newbie next time.”<br>“I thought I was. Never seen you around so I had to check your story,” Shawn said walking over to the couch.
“Why not just ask me and check and see if I was telling the truth?” Parker asked following him.
“Because that’s what good does. You need to stop thinking like a good witch,” Shawn said looking at Parker.
“Hmm…well would a good witch do this?” Parker asked pulling Shawn into a deep, passionate kiss that she never would have done if she was good. A few moments later they pulled apart.
“Come on, I need to show you somewhere,” Shawn said grabbing Parker’s hand and shimmering her downstairs before she could slip away.

“You think she’s coming?” A girl asked. She was standing at a makeshift club house. She was surrounded by many teenagers. They were all dressed in leather and looked like they wouldn’t hesitate to kill you.
“Melissa! Shawn never fails in getting a girl. She’ll come,” Another girl answered with the rest of the group nodding in agreement.
“I know. It’s just that…we need her. She has to be the one,” Melissa said with a sigh.
“It’s ok, Melissa,” A guy said walking over to her and putting an arm around her.
“What? Did I die again?” Shawn asked walking into the group with a smile. Parker was with him.
“Shawn! Who’s your friend?” Melissa asked rushing over and giving Shawn a hug.
“Melissa, this is Parker. Parker, Melissa,” Shawn said giving a quick introduction. Parker gave a quick hello.
“So why did you drag me here?” Parker asked Shawn.
“Cause I think you can relate to us. I know you are a good witch,” Shawn said looking at Parker.
“Was,” Parker corrected and continued, “Wait…Are you a good witch? Are you spying on Wyatt!?!”<br>“No! I was just testing you. Wyatt warned me that you might still be having good influences. He thought 2 drinks of your potion might not be enough,” Shawn said calmly.
“What are those drinks?” Parker asked not quite trusting Shawn now.
“Pure evil. Well…maybe not pure but it helps a confused witch most of the time,” A girl in the crowd answered before Shawn could.
“I can talk for myself, Ann,” Shawn said looking in Ann’s direction. “But what she said the truth. I think they add some soothing herbs to give it some flavor,” Shawn continued.
“Wyatt is making me drink evil! He doesn’t trust me!” Parker said outraged. She went to orb off but Shawn stopped her.
“He doesn’t trust anybody. Who could blame him?” Shawn said as others nodded in agreement.
“But I’m family,” Parker said coldly. She saw a few people look surprise.
“You…you’re a Halliwell?” Melissa asked surprised.
“No, I’m a Wyatt. OF COURSE I’M A HALLIWELL!” Parker yelled. She was still fuming that Wyatt didn’t trust her.
“Of course you are. You have the patience of one,” Ann said looking at Parker.
“I don’t have to take this,” Parker said before orbbing out. This time Shawn didn’t try to stop her.
“Nice covering guys,” Shawn said to the group after Parker was gone.
“I thought she couldn’t be good anymore. Her aura was screaming evil,” A guy said from the back.
“I got that too, Matt. But it seems to me that she is conflicted. I’ll try to get closer to her. Until then, be safe guys,” Shawn said.
“You too. Being a spy is even more dangerous,” Melissa said to Shawn caringly as he shimmered off. She sighed and the group broke up going their separate ways.

Great stuff, more soon!

Good stuff

Parker orbbed into her room half expecting Shawn to follow her. Apparently he stayed there. Parker sighed and fell back on her new bed. She closed her eyes and started thinking. Why did she have to be so alone? Why was everybody using her? Why couldn’t she be happy on either side? She continued thinking these questions until she fell into a light sleep.

Parker saw herself in the park facing her sister. Parker was smirking and tossing an energy ball up and down talking to her sister. Paris then started talking and orbbed the energy ball away. Parker soon attacked at her sister.

Parker awoke with a start and sat up. She saw her sister in her room.
“What are you doing in here?” Parker asked coldly.
“Coming to bring you home,” Paris said orbbing off before Parker could attack her. Parker got up and orbbed off after her sister easily tracking her. After a 5 minute chase across the world Parker finally stopped and saw her sister waiting for her.
“Geesh…take forever!!” Paris said getting up off a bench she was sitting on.
“I like to think you got a lead,” Parker responded quickly. She was supposed to be the smart aleck one. Not Paris.
“Uh huh…you were too busy dreaming about Shawn,” Paris responded smirking. Melinda’s telepathy was far more powerful than anybody would imagine and she had passed on some information to Paris.
“I was dreaming about attacking you…” Parker said remembering the energy ball she had. How did she make an energy ball without that power? Parker then smirked and conjured it. Why didn’t she think of that in the first place?
“What…how did you do that?” Paris asked shocked. She didn’t want to be the bait anymore. MELINDA!! Chris!! Paris shouted telepathically to her cousins.
“What? Scared now? Scared that your little sister is more powerful that you?” Parker taunted with a smirk. Paris then called for the energy ball and threw it at the ground.
“I don’t want to fight you, Parker. But I will if I have to,” Paris said staring her sister down.
“I’ll take that as a challenge,” Parker said lunging at her sister and tackling her. She may be a conjurer and could have easily killed Paris right then and there, but something inside stopped her from conjuring a gun or sword. Paris tossed Parker off with her telekinesis and then started the throw her at a tree but Parker tossed her into one first. Parker then pinned Paris there.
“Like my new power? Our dearest cousin gave it to me as a welcome gift,” Parker said with anger burning in her eyes.
“I think you got the short end of the stick,” Paris said using her years of having telekinesis and tossing Parker aside easily. “And stick to conjuring,” Paris added looking down at Parker.
Parker jumped up and conjured another energy ball and threw it quickly. It nicked Paris’s arm as she jumped aside.
“CHRIS!” Paris cried out. Parker started laughing.
“Calling for Chris for help? Wow…you are weak,” Parker taunted.
“No I’m not. I know when I need help unlike some others who went for the easy way out. They ran and are still running from confronting their problem!” Paris said standing up and looking Parker straight in the eye. She could tell her Parker, the good one, was still in there. Otherwise she would have been dead.
Just then Chris appeared with Melinda. Melinda quickly laid out crystals trapping Parker before Parker could even react. Meanwhile Chris healed Paris and helped her to her feet. “Read this,” He instructed his cousins.
“Lost witch with no sight, let her hear the truth for one night, once the night yields, her destiny will be revealed,” All three cousins chanted. Parker glowed and blinked her eyes.
“What the hell are you doing?” Parker asked standing up in the crystal cage.
“Saving you,” Chris said knocking one of the crystals away. “Orb,” Chris commanded. Parker looked him over quickly and orbbed off. Paris could have sworn her sister’s orbs looked lighter than they did when she orbbed in to the park.

Parker orbbed into the attic and opened the Book of Shadows. She started flipping through the book to the entry with her name in it. Parker started reading but was interrupted again. Parker then looked up to see somebody orb in.
“A little reading I see,” Wyatt said going to looking at the book but Parker had quickly shut it as soon as she noticed orbs. “What were you looking up?” Wyatt asked.
“Oh nothing. I was just reading random entries. I hadn’t seen the book so long and it’s changed,” Parker said leaning on the stand and tracing the triquarta with her finger. Wyatt didn’t notice this.
“I noticed you ran into our family in the park,” Wyatt said casually. Well, as casual as Wyatt could get.
“Yeah, they tried to get me back,” Parker said still tracing the triquarta. It was almost soothing to her.
“And I see you resisted. That’s the Halliwell way,” Wyatt said putting his arm around Parker’s shoulder. Parker smiled weakly and continued tracing. It was giving her some strength.
“Wyatt, why did you want me to join you? Why not Chris? He was the one hold us together,” Parker asked as she stopped tracing and looked Wyatt in the eyes.
“I’ve told you I wanted…” Wyatt said before stopping confused. He then tried to continue, “I wanted you to...” Wyatt’s eyes showed bewilderment. “I wanted you to join me so the prophecy wouldn’t come true!” Wyatt spat out quickly. His eyes then showed shock because he told the truth. During this whole time Parker was confused. Then Chris’s spell came back to her. “Let her hear the truth” echoed through Parker’s mind.
“What prophecy?” Parker asked trying not to smirk. For once Wyatt had to tell the truth. At least to her.
Wyatt tried to fight it but again he lost. He opened the book to the page Parker was at and pointed while he said,” This one.” Parker quickly read it.
“Bastard. You used me!” Parker said outraged. Wyatt was manipulating Parker and Parker feel for it!
“Yes,” Wyatt answered before he could think. “What truth spell did you cast?” Wyatt asked Parker with anger in his eyes. His plan was falling apart.
“I didn’t cast one,” Parker answered truthfully.
“Who else would?” Wyatt asked angrily before it dawned on him. Chris did. He wrote a spell to make her hear the truth so she would realize her mistake! Parker didn’t answer as she knew he knew it already.
“Stay in this house or I will kill you,” Wyatt ordered before orbbing off. Parker watched him vanish in orbs.
“Now let’s see what all this power can do,” Parker said smirking and opening the book.

[staceface510]

Ok..here's another update. Sorry about the wait but I got busy and got writer's block. Enjoy and leave comments!

Parker stayed up in the attic and for once obeying somebody’s orders. But she needed some back up.
“Shawn, I know you can hear me. Come here, please,” Parker said sounding good. She had thought and realized she was only a pawn in Wyatt’s game. She didn’t like being used very well and Wyatt was going to pay for it. She then saw somebody shimmer in.
“What?” Shawn asked crossing his arms. He wasn’t going to test her now. He knew she had drank too much evil to help him or his friends.
“You were right. I am good…or at least now I am. I need your help though. Wyatt said I can’t leave the house and I plan on using that to my advantage. I need you to go to Chris’s apartment and tell them I’m back. Then take them to your friends. We will need all the back up we can get,” Parker instructed.
“But…I thought you were evil,” Shawn asked confused. Parker was a complicated girl.
“Was…now go!” Parker instructed hearing somebody come up the stairs. Shawn shimmered out.
“Time for your drink, Miss Halliwell,” Olivia said walking into the room with the black evil drink on a tray.
“Thank you Olivia,” Parker said taking the drink and then she said, “You can leave now.” Olivia nodded and left. Don’t let me down, Shawn Parker thought as she orbbed the glass away.


“Getting anything?” Paris asked Melinda nervously. They had just attempted to cure Parker and Paris wasn’t sure if it had worked.
“Not since you asked 1 second ago!” Melinda snapped back and then continued, “I need to concentrate and your foot twitching like that is bugging me.” Melinda then took a deep breath and closed her eyes again.
“Sorry…” Paris muttered quietly and got up off the couch. She then went into the kitchen where Chris was making something. He inherited his mother’s cooking genes luckily. Otherwise they would have starved by now.
“How is she doing?” Chris asked tossing in some blue herbs.
“Umm..ok I guess. I kept bugging her though,” Paris said sitting down on a bar stool across from Chris. “What are you making?” Paris asked looking in the pot disgusted. It looked horrible but surprisingly it didn’t smell that bad.
“I don’t know. Mom use to make potions when she was nervous. I guess I picked up on that habit,” Chris said tossing in some white root. The potion exploded slightly and Paris jumped back.
“Thanks,” Paris said sarcastically and then seeing Chris’s face asked, “You did that on purpose didn’t you?”<br>“Maybe,” Chris said smirking and stirring the potion. “I think it’s done…go get the book to see what I made,” Chris order his younger cousin politely.
“Book,” Paris said lazily and having it orb into her outstreached arms.
“Personal gain…” Chris muttered putting his potion into vales.
“I don’t care…I don’t feel like wasting time to have to go get it,” Paris said stubbornly opening the book and smirking. “I just wish I knew what this potion was…” Paris said looking up. Right on cue, a wind turned the pages to a spell Paris had never heard of.
“Prophecy potion?” Paris asked out loud confused.
“Who wrote that in there?” Chris asked wiping off his hands.
“Uhh…Aunt Phoebe…” Paris said as they both paused in a moment of silence. Their mothers and aunts were still a weak point to all of them.
“Wait…this wasn’t in there a few years back. I looked back and forth through the book looking for a cure to bring Mom back and then again to bring Wyatt back,” Chris said taking the book from his cousin.
“Wait…are you saying Aunt Phoebe planted this potion in there know you would make it,” Paris asked confused. How could that happen?
“Umm...but what prophecy?” Paris asked confused.
“The one Parker is part of. The one we are all part of,” Melinda said walking into the kitchen.
“Get a vision?” Chris asked.
“Not the one I wanted. But this one was useful. I saw Mom reciting a prophecy the day the twins were born. Parker is suppose to stop Wyatt. But she can’t unless everything else falls into place,” Melinda said sitting down next to Paris.
“What! Why didn’t they tell us?” Paris asked outraged.
“They were going to…when you turned 13,” Melinda said quietly.
“Oh…” Paris said quieting down.
“So what are the other parts? Is a potion involved?” Chris asked Melinda leaning on the counter.
“Yes...this one in fact,” Melinda said pointing at the open page in the book.
“Done,” Chris said sitting down the vale down in front of Melinda. “What else?” Chris asked.
“Umm…,” Melinda said trying to remember. Her eyes suddenly changed and she seemed to stiffen up.
“Mel…” Paris said getting scared.
“One night the lone conjurer will rise, the greatest evil may be the one that dies, she must choose a side or be torn in two, for that night decides all destiny,” Melinda chanted in a deeper voice. Melinda then shook her head confused.
“What happened?” She asked.
“I think you just gave us part of the prophecy..” Chris said. Then he jumped slightly as somebody shimmered into the kitchen.
“Parker sent me here. She wants me to take you to my friends,” Shawn said hurriedly.
“Parker sent you?” Paris asked with hope.
“Yes, follow me before Wyatt gets here,” Shawn said shimmering out. Paris quickly followed. But before Chris or Melinda could somebody dark orbbed in.
“Hello Chris…Melinda,” Wyatt said smirking evilly.
