Power of two would have to do [Lauren]

[Aiden Black-Density]

It was a rainy night. One where the atmosphere of expectancy had its way. Aiden Black-Density had found himself in the Halliwell Manor standing exactly where the Book of Shadows used to be. Aiden, remembering this place all too well circumspected the place, his eyes rolling over the many hidden cracks in the place that were now magnified with their failures. Aiden smirked, then realizing why he was here. He was here to summon the Halliwell that he once dated hundreds of years ago.

Therefore, Aiden's witch side took its hold with Aiden repeating a summoning spell to call the Charmed Witch to himself. He knew that she would probably resist, and so he repeated the line with more force and with greater expectancy...

Hear me now and hear me clear,
I call the one whom connection share
From mine own heart I summon thee
Lauren Halliwell, come to me!

It was one day before the Relaunch of Magic School, and Aiden wanted to make sure that this was done way before the time of celebration.

[Lauren Halliwell]

Lauren was washing the dishes that night with Hannah sitting on her chair by her side. When suddenly, Lauren felt a violent force summoning her, it was so strong that it seemed that she was being pulled by a truck. That couldn’t be good, Lauren tried to stay strong and resist, but then this force seemed to have gotten even stronger and more violent. No longer being able to fight against it, Lauren soon disappeared in a swirl of red lights, leaving the Pryce Manor and leaving her daughter behind. She was used to teleporting, but this time there was something different. Lauren felt like she was tied up and both her arms and legs were being torn from her body As if she was being summoned for a particular purpose.

Two minutes after leaving her house, Lauren appeared on the floor of the Halliwell Manor. The place had changed so much, it was much darker, spider webs could be seen in each corner, the glass on the window was broken, but the Attic still smelled like wild flowers and cloves. Lauren’s hazel eyes seemed to be absorbing the Attic’s new appearance, but when she looked by the pedestal where the Book used to stay, Lauren seemed shocked . Aiden was standing right by it. But was Aiden the one to summon her?
“What do you want?” Lauren asked with a serious tone and stepped back. Lauren knew that this was not the Aiden she once loved, so Lauren insisted in keeping a certain distance between them for her own safety.

[Aiden Black-Density]

Seeing that Lauren's resistance had finally weakened and that the woman had appeared, he remained silent allowing the woman the time to become familiar with the place once more, being particularly careful not to startle her. He was not here to hunt her down or engraven more conflict in their relationship, rather for one sole purpose and one only, to get his daughter back. Aiden, upon realizing that Lauren had faced him and was less shaken than he expected, sighed one of relief running his hands through his more darker brown hair.

"I know we are not on amicable terms Halliwell..." Aiden started grimly, remaining in his place, "But I want one thing from you and I don't care what ever else you want to do, but there is only one thing I want..." Aiden cotinued, "I want my daughter. I want Patience." Aiden stated profoundly.

[Lauren Halliwell]

Lauren folded her arms and listened to what Aiden began to say. “Halliwell?! I should have seen this one coming.” she said with a disgusted tone . How could he have changed that much? It didn’t matter now, Lauren could care less about how Aiden treated her. She began to think of a lot of insults and curse words to shout at Aiden, but when her daughter’s name was spoken , Lauren felt her heart being stabbed.

“I want her too. Thanks to Malchiresa we can’t have her back. Which reminds me that after Malchiresa killed our daughter, you joined her and became one of her minions!” she shouted and began to remember the day, where she lost her daughter due to a fatal fight against Malchiresa. “How could you have done that to Patience? You fought side by side with the people that wanted her dead before she was even born!”[ /b] she continued and walked towards Aiden.

“I lost a daughter once.” she began. “Thank God I have another one today. I know that your family…that is if I can call it that, is trying to get Hannah.” Lauren raised her hand as if she was going to slap Aiden, but she didn’t . “If you ever hurt her I swear to God I will hunt you down and kill you myself and THIS time you won’t be able to come back”.

[Aiden Black-Density]

Aiden didnt flinch as Lauren's hand was just inches away from his cheek. Aiden absorbed her words as she recalled the grim day in Aiden's life. But then he rebuked her statements, recalling the events of how he now saw it, "It was Haden and Jason's fault Lauren. If they hadn't interrupted our spell, then Malchiresa would've been vanquished by now. Now, I just realize that we all are evil...only some of us are willing not to be hypocrites and show it." Aiden stated as he gulped, now standing only inches away from the woman that he once called his own. They both had grown, both walking on their own separate paths in life but they will always be connected, that connection was Patience.

"Look, Lauren...I dont care what my family wants right now. I want to be able to hold my daughter in my arms...I never got to do that...I understand you dislike me..hell...hate me. And maybe I deserve it...but don't ever tell me I don't deserve Patience!" Aiden stated as he looked her in the eye. He reached down into his pocket and took out a knife, placing it on the stand where the Book of Shadows once laid. "You can either kill me now...or lose Patience forever. We both need each other for this one Lauren...we both need each other." Aiden stated as he left the knife on the stand, looking back at Lauren.

[Lauren Halliwell]

Lauren sighed and began to understand how Aiden felt. After all she also wanted to hold her daughter and have the chance to stop wondering what could have been. “Alright…you must know about this stuff more than I do. Tell me what I need to do to have my daughter back.” Lauren said with a certain fear of what would happen next. The idea of having Patience back was very comforting, Hannah wouldn’t be alone and Lauren would be able to live with the two girls she loved more than anything. “Will she come back as a baby?” Lauren asked Aiden and by looking at the Athame, she realized that blood would be required.

How would Aaron react when he found out that his wife went behind his back and help her ex resurrect their dead daughter? It didn’t matter now! Lauren’s strong desire to have her daughter back was clouding her judgment and she couldn‘t think of anything else besides the fact that she was going to have her daughter back. “I’m ready.” Lauren said and turned her head away when she gave Aiden her right hand.

[Aiden Black-Density]

Aiden nodded, realizing that she was willing to cooperate. He sighed, moving towards a table that he had set up with an undone potion which required both of their blood. "I dont know...I am just hoping she returns...that this works." Aiden stated as he took the athame and sliced his finger then slicing Lauren's finger as well. All Aiden desired was that Patience returned, and although he would like to have the child from her birth, he truly doubt that it would occur that way. But he didnt mind what ever happened.

"So...We will repeat the spell then put our blood in their together...okay?" Aiden stated with concerned eyes as he stared up at Lauren after realizing that the potion was already smoking. It was a mix of both dark and good magic, a mix that would require them to use all that they were made up of, including their charmed abilities. He unrolled a slip of paper that read the spell,

We call upon the ancient powers
That Blessed us at this hour
Bring us the one we wanted dear
Patience Halliwell we call you here

Aiden sighed, hoping that this worked. He had not been embracing his Witch side in a while, and this would be a huge change for him.

[Lauren Halliwell]

“Alright” Lauren said and felt the blade of the Athame cut her finger. In a matter of seconds, Lauren could see a large amount of blood above the wound. She walked towards the bowl and dropped her blood on the potion and watched as it changed color, then it started to summon a smoke.

We call upon the ancient powers
That Blessed us at this hour
Bring us the one we wanted dear
Patience Halliwell we call you here

Lauren recited the spell and stood still. A red smoke appeared on the Attic’s floor, Patience would probably appear from it. Realizing that her daughter would appear with no clothes, Lauren walked towards the old trunk, where Penny Halliwell once left the Book of Shadows and grabbed a green bed sheet. When Lauren got back to Aiden’s side the smoke was starting to vanish and when it was gone, a blonde naked woman appeared laid down on the floor. (sorry for the low quality…a lot of Could that be her long lost daughter? The baby Lauren once thought was dead? distractions at my house. My parents have friends over )

[Aiden Black-Density]

Aiden had continued to repeat the spell in concert with Lauren as he noticed that it was beginning to work. The red smoke that appeared behind him was promising as he turned around to notice that Lauren was already at it, her maternal instincts at work again. Aiden, finishin with the rhyme, stared at the woman with blonde hair, like his, with great promise. He was overwhelmed with great joy and compassion as he realized that he and Lauren's unity was still able to do something great. "Patience..." He uttered beneath his breath as he stared at te beautiful woman he would now call...daughter. What will be her future now be and how will her presence affect the life of Lauren and Aiden as they engage on separate paths in their life...??
