Chapter Nineteen – One Last Shot

“It worked with Melinda,” Prue commented, trying to hold back panic. “Why didn’t it work with Vicki?”
“Maybe it only works one per person,” Wyatt suggested. “Someone else will have to try it.” He had other ideas, but that one made the most sense. He walked back to the paper with the spell and picked it up. Turning back around her addressed Prue. “Aunt Prue, do you want it?”
Prue nodded and turned to Andy. “Can’t have anything easy, can we?”
Andy smiled. For them, easy was never in the equation.
Wyatt walked over and held the spell out for Prue to read. He still had his reservations about if Prue was enough of a part of this reality yet.
Andy held out his hands and Prue held hers out over his. Reading from the spell in Wyatt’s hands Prue chanted. “What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine. Our souls forever now entwine. Life and death may come to pass, our souls forever will attach. From now and to eternity, breathe life to this soul so dear to me.”
In the instant Prue finished Andy went from being almost not there to being completely solid. He pulled Prue into a hug, relieved. As they separated they both turned their eyes to their daughters.
Wyatt walked away and first looked down at Pat and then Vicki. “Clearly someone else is going to have to use spell on you. Who wants to?”
“I can do it,” Alanna announced as she pushed back against the couch. “Be nice to feel useful,” she added as she stood and looked at Vicki. “Vicki?”
Vicki grinned. She held out her hands, again.
Prue and Andy watched, apprehensive. Paige and Henry watched as Alanna held out her hands, not as worried at Piper and Leo, especially Piper had been, but still concerned.
Looking at the paper Wyatt held out, Alanna read, “What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine. Our souls forever now entwine. Life and death may come to pass, our souls forever will attach. From now and to eternity, breathe life to this soul now dear to me.”
When Vicki turned solid, Chris noticed something odd. “She’s still confusing. Is that just normal?”
Melinda laughed. “Yeah, pretty much.”
Vicki stuck her tongue out, feeling playful for once.
Next to her, Alanna rolled her eyes. With a smile at Vicki she commented, “Guess that makes us closer than normal cousins.”
Vicki grinned. “I guess so.”
Pat stood and looked around. More often than her exuberant sister, the quiet one, she almost wondered if she had been forgotten. “My turn?”
Janice pushed herself to a standing position. “Allow me.”
“Thanks,” Pat replied as she held out her hands.
As Wyatt held out the paper for Janice to read, Janice held her hands over Pat’s. “What’s mine is yours, what’s yours is mine. Our souls forever now entwine. Life and death may come to pass, our souls forever will attach. From now and to eternity, breathe life to this soul now dear to me.”
Pat was solid. They had done it.
