All the Halliwell females had 2 weeks off. They wanted to have sessions with all the children in Magic School. The babies were in Magic School daycare while the adults taught and had one on ones with the students. Each Halliwell taught a different class. Phyre taught grade 1 spells. Paisley taught 7th grade history of Magic. Pamela taught all grades potions. Pandora taught chorus. Paris taught band. Patience taught health. Patricia taught P.E. Penelope taught computer skills and wood shop. Pamela was also the headmistress of the school.

On this particular Saturday morning, Phyre was teaching her students how to make things turn blue.

"All right children, by the end of class I want you all to have turned your pillow blue," she told them. They all set to work. About thirty minutes into class, Pamela walked in with two identical girls following. She told them to wait by the door, and she walked over to her cousin.

"Phyre, this is Phaedra and Purity. Their parents were just killed, and they are starting here on weekends. Phaedra is in pink and Purity is in purple. Good luck," she told her, smiling as she waked out. Phyre turned to the girls.

"Okay, Phaedra why don't you and Purity introduce yourselves. Tell us your names, ages, and powers," she gently told them. Purity went first.

"My name is Purity Anne Striker, and I am 6 years old. I have a lot of powers. They are orbing, healing, invisibility, force field, weather control, cyrokinesis, areokinesis, pyrokinesis telepathy, and flying," she said in a very quiet whisper. She stepped back as her sister stepped forward.

"I am Phaedra Rini Striker. I am the age of 6 also. My powers are orbing, healing, glamoring, sensing, biokinesis, force field, hydrokinesis, electrokinesis, telepathy, and geokinesis," she, too, said in a quiet tone. Phyre looked impressed at the young girls power.

"How about you too go sit at that table with Markus and James. We are working on turning our pillows blue," she told them and pointed to a table with two boys at it. They smiled at the two girls as they walked over. They introduced themselves.

"Hello, I am Markus Grant. I am 6 and my powers are teleporting, deflection, cloning, and telekinesis," he told them. Next was James.

"I am James McDonald, and I am 6. My powers are teleporting, exploding, glamouring, and pyrokinesis," he told them. The twins smiled and got to work.

Meanwhile, Phyre, who was watching the twins work, heard a jingle in her head, and she groaned. She used her telepathy to contact Patricia, who she knew had a break period. Patricia, can you cover my classes. I just got a call from the Elders? She asked. Yes, I can. Came her cousin's reply. Two seconds later Patty orbed in. Phyre orbed up to the Heavens. There, she met Zola.

"Why have you summoned me?" she asked the oldest Elder.

"The two new witches in your class are part of a very important destiny. You are to take them in, and raise them as your own." He told them. Phyre looked confused.

"But why me?" she asked. The Elder smiled serenely.

"You are destined to raise them. I know you can raise them and love them as you would your own. You will be able to save The Chosen Ones!" he said, referring to the Striker twins as The Chosen Ones. Phyre sighed.

"How do I adopt them?" she asked.

"Go to South Bay Social Services. Tell them that you wish to adopt them. An undercover whitelighter will help you. He will get you a Magical judge," said the Elder. Phyre sighed, nodded, and orbed out to her class. Patricia orbed back into her office, for she had a group of first graders coming in for gym.

After their spell class, James, Markus, Phaedra, and Purity walked down the hall to the gym. They were going to play kickball today. They were split up into teams.

"James, Markus, Phaedra, and Purity are on the green team. Jasmine, Sarah, Mitchell, and Michael are on the blue team," it went on this way for a while until Patricia had sorted all the students. Markus groaned.
"They got Mitchell. He can make an impenetrable armor on anyone, including himself. He can also put a shield around people to stop them," he explained. They then learned that they could use their powers. Teleporters could only teleport in the same spot. They started. The green team was kicking. Phaedra was first. The opposing team rolled the ball, and Phaedra kicked it over their heads. As she ran towards first base, she saw a maroon shield surround her. She saw Jasmine use her telekinesis to throw the ball at her. The shield disappeared, and Phaedra orbed out. She orbed in at the same spot and passed first. She got to second. Markus was next. As he kicked the ball high over their heads, he started to run towards the first base. He saw Phaedra hit home. Passing first he ran to second only to be caught in a force field. Jasmine sent the ball at him, as the shield came down. He raised up his left hand and deflected the ball back, as he reached second, third, then home.

It was like that for about an hour. The teams only switching out once. But, the green team won 30-10. It was the end of the day, and Phaedra, Purity, James, and Markus were in potions with Pamela. They were making an invisibility potion. All of a sudden, Phyre walked into the room. They whisper to each other for a minute, and then Pamela speaks.

"Phaedra, Purity," she calls.

"Yes Mrs. Wyatt?" they answered in perfect unison.

"Mrs. Trudeau would like to talk to you," she said. They looked at each other confusedly. But they got up and walked up to the teacher, who told them to follow her. She orbed out, with Phaedra and Purity right behind her. They reappeared in her office. She gestured for them to sit in the two cushiony chairs.

"Well, it has come to my attention that your parents have just died. I know it must be hard for you. My parents have died just a year ago. I was wondering, how would you feel of I told you someone wanted to adopt you?" she nervously asked the last part. The two looked at each other for a minute.

"We like the idea. Who is it?" they asked together. Phyre took a deep breath.

"It's my husband and I. Plus out triplets: Potter, Porter, and Primrose," she told the two shocked twins. They nodded still shocked. Just then, the bell rang signaling the end of the school hours. Phyre got up and walked to the door, holding it open.

"Why don't you come with me? We have to pick up the Halliwell children anyway." She asked, as they walked the corridors. They reached the nursery about ten minutes later. The nursery person, Ms. Harrison, had them all ready. Taking three carriers on each arm (Phyre had 4 on one), they orbed home. On her left, Phyre had Potter, Porter, and Primrose. On her right, she had Parker, Pearl, Palmer, and Perry. On her left, Phaedra had Paul, Preston, and Patrick. On her right, she had Peyton, Petunia, and Petra. On Purity's right, there was Persephone, Peter, and Phillip. On her left, there was Polly, Priscilla, and Phoenix. They orbed to the manor where Phyre lived with her family. They were all spread out in different places. Paisley lived in Dan's old house. Pamela lives in a townhouse. Pandora lived in a house down the street in a house. Paris lived in the penthouse. Patience lived in her mother's old apartment. Patricia lived in her father's old house. And Penelope lived in a penthouse near Pamela. As they put in the children in the cribs downstairs, Phyre turned to then older twins.

"Do you girls have nicknames?" she asked.

"My nickname is Phae," Phaedra told them.

"Mine is Pure," told Purity. Phyre nodded. When the twins fell asleep, Phyre orbed them upstairs into an empty guest room just as the other Halliwell appeared. Phyre explained to them about the twins. Well to everyone except Patty and Pam who already knew them. She explained to them that she was going to adopt them. She had called James already, and he would meet them at the Social services.

When all the children were gone, Phyre went upstairs to wake up Phaedra and Purity. She gently shook them awake, and smiled at their cuteness. They were tangled together with hair tussled and clothes mused. She gave them each a brush, and watched them as they brushed the other's hair. Their hair was jet-black, like hers, and slightly wavy. They were tanned with mesmerizing crystal blue eyes. When they were ready, Phyre drove them all down to South Bay Social Services. As she walked in, a gorgeous brown haired man with gentle hazel eyes walked over. When he got to the group of three, he stopped.

"Are these the Chosen Ones?" he asked in a quiet sort of whisper. Phyre nodded. He gestured for them to follow him. They walked into a neat cubical. They sat down.

"I have arranged for you to see Judge Barnes. He is an undercover Elder. He has been informed of the situation. You will see him tomorrow at ten o'clock to finalize the adoption. Good Luck!" and with that, he sent them off. They went home to tell the others. Phyre, Paisley, Pamela, Pandora, Paris, Patience, Patricia, and Penelope took the day off so that they all could go. They hoped everything would go ok…
