charmed
This is based on a TV series.
My family is famous in the world of magic. The Halliwell
sisters were famous for defeating evil wizards and
warlocks. My two aunts are Phoebe and Paige, and my mum is
Piper. They were known as the charmed ones. They had the
power of three, which made them very popular. When they
found out they were witches, everyone tried to kill them,
but as they became more famous, only the first class evil
wizards and warlocks tried to kill the Halliwell sisters.
My Mum was a cook and owned a nightclub. She was also the
sensible sister. She lost also her temper once in a while,
especially if someone was trying to hurt her children. You
don’t know how many demons were after my big brother and
me
My Dad’s name is Leo. He was a white lighter. In other
words, he was sent by heaven to take care of the Charmed
Ones. This was not all that easy, because the girls had a
mind of their own. Actually, Dad wasn’t even allowed to
marry Mum, because he was their white lighter. Their love
history was long and hard, but they were allowed to be
married at the end. Dad became an elder. That was like
being God himself. He tried his best to see us as much as
he could.
My older brother is Wyatt. He is 12. He knows a lot of
magic and is destined to be the most powerful witch...
Lots of evil wizards tried to get him. Wyatt knows this
neat trick where he can be in a bubble when someone
attacks him. No one could penetrate the bubble. He just
could make faces and cast spells that destroyed the demons
from inside the bubble. Wyatt was a good brother, but he
was bossy sometimes.
This story or event in my life starts when I was 10 and
Wyatt was 12. He was busy in magic school reading some old
books. I was too lazy to read books. I would rather play
with my friends. The magic school was safe from demons,
but sometimes they found their way in.
One day, Wyatt so emerged in a book about the Banshee that
he didn’t even notice that he had a visitor. It was
Barbas, one of the most dangerous demons ever. Barbas
could wave his palm in front of you and then figure out
your worse fears. This was enough to make a person do
something... If that didn’t work, Barbas would do
something that will put the person in their feared
situation, and this could end in death.
He waved his hand in front of Wyatt and said, “Oh you
might be the most powerful witch ever seen, but you have
one fear. You fear that a demon will recognize your
brother and kill him. What a powerful fear! You must be
thinking that if your brother has no power, that demons
would not be interested. You are right. No demon would
attack a boy who lost his powers. Chris will be safe. Now
it’s up to you Wyatt, how will you protect your brother?”
Barbas disappeared; however, the fear was implanted in my
brother’s head. A tear came to Wyatt’s eyes as he could
imagine 4 or 5 demons casting demon balls of fire at me.
He could see me burning in flames as I was powerless.
Wyatt thought that even if I defeated them, then more and
more powerful demons would come after me. Wyatt walked
back and forth in the Library. He was getting more and
more annoyed with himself at the thought that he could not
always be there to protect me. He either had to take my
powers away or make sure that the demons couldn’t find me.
In a way, Barbas’ scheme was failing. Wyatt was starting
to think of alternative ways of beating his fear. He
started reading spells on how he could conquer the fear.
Wyatt called me into the Library at the magic school. He
gave me a hug and told me that nobody would ever hurt his
brother. He waved his hands and said
“Spirits of life protect my brother, make him another.
Change his form, so no one knows who he is and where he
comes from.”
The ceiling started going around in a whirl. The floor
opened up and a light flowed up in the room. The light
started to go around me, lifting me into the air. I could
hear dogs barking and pains throughout my body. Wyatt was
repeating the spell over and over. I was getting dizzy.
When I landed on the floor, I could see that the Library
was the same as it always was, with a few books that have
fallen down.
I could see that Wyatt was tired. I tried asking him how
he was, but I just barked. Then I noticed that I was
standing on 4 legs. I looked around and could see my body.
I was a dog. I was so mad that my brother turned me into a
dog. I looked at Wyatt and he looked like he was crying.
He just made a huge mistake.
“I am sorry, Chris,” He said, “I meant to change you to
another boy, so no one could recognize that you're my
brother and hurt you. I changed you into a boy, but I
never expected that you would turn to a dog. Mum will kill
me. Maybe you should get something to eat.”
He put a leash on me and led me to the kitchen. Everything
looked so big now. I could feel my tail wagging as my
brother looked for an old dog dish. He cast a spell over a
bowl of apples and that became dog food. I started to get
mad. Did he expect me to eat dog food? When he put a bowl
of dog food before me, I knew that he was serious. I
sniffed it. It didn’t smell that bad. I tasted a small
bit. It was rabbit food. I started to eat the food
thinking that it was good enough.
Wyatt became worried. He knew that his mother would lose
her temper if she found out. He also knew the more time
that I was a dog; the harder it was to change back.
However, he did not want me as a brother. He couldn’t deal
with the pain and fear that I might be killed by some
demon.
He walked me through the neighbourhood as he thought of
what is best to do. I noticed that Wyatt was very worried.
I wanted to lick his face to make him happy. However, I
was just happy to be able to walk and stretch my 4 legs.
It was also nice that I could wet every pole and some
bushes as we walked along. I could smell if other dogs did
the same before me. Then it hit me. I was starting to
think like a dog. If Wyatt didn’t do anything soon, I
would be a dog for the rest of my life.
When we came home, Mum was there. She was busy making some
potions.
“Wyatt, where did you get that dog?”
“Err, I found him. I hope we can keep him”
“We will have to discuss that later. Where is Chris?”
“He is around.”
Mum could see that there was something strange. She looked
straight into my eyes and shouted, “The dog has Chris’
eyes!”
Wyatt told Mum the truth. He told about Barbas and being
afraid that he would lose me. Then he told that he put a
spell on me that went wrong. Now he was afraid that I
would stay as a dog. Mum was quite annoyed. She started
mixing herbs and other things while mumbling that boys
will be boys. She put this pink potion in a glass and
threw it at me. The potion started running down my face
and back. It was very soothing and made me very weak that
I fell to the floor. Not even my 4 legs could support me.
I closed my eyes as I could feel some ticklish feelings in
my body. I could feel that I once again was getting hands
and feet. Great, I would no longer be a dog. The feeling
was too much for me. I felt like that I had to sleep. My
eyes were getting heavier and heavier and I slept
When I woke up, I was on the floor. Mum put a blanket over
me. My hair covered my eyes and mouth; I tried to sweep it
back. I had long hair. It went down to my shoulders. I
quickly sat up and looked around. I looked at my hands.
They were human. I looked at the blanket, it was a human
body. I smiled. Things were back to normal. Then I felt
that something was weird. I looked under the blanket
again. Then it hit me. My boy privates were gone. The only
thing that was there was girl privates. Then I realized
what has happened:
MUM HAS TURNED ME INTO A GIRL
I ran up to my room and could see that Mum used her magic
again. It now had pink walls and a pink rug in the middle
of it. My boy toys were changed to girl toys. Teddy bears,
dollhouse, dolls, and art stuff filled my room. Mum was
smiling as she hung a poster of a kitten on my wall. I
wanted to be a boy, not a girl!
She put me in some of my old boy clothes. She announced
that we had to go shopping. I needed a whole new wardrobe.
She would not use magic to do that. It would be nice to go
on a mothers-daughters day and spend a lot of money. I
could see a smile on Wyatt’s face. He would be able to
escape this.
My Mum was brushing my hair while she explained that
changing me into a boy was hard. She admitted that she
always wanted a girl, and now she had a chance to do this.
I realized that she was asking me to be content with my
new body and my new identity as a girl.
It would be hard being a girl after I have been a boy all
my life. I looked around the room and thought that it was
pretty. I said thanks to Mum and let her take me out
shopping
By the time we entered the clothes shop, I thought it was
like heaven. So many blouses, tank tops, pretty t-shirts.
There were so many skirts and dresses. There were so many
leggings and panties. Mum and I smiled. We looked at a
denim skirt that would look great on me. Then we found
another one. Then we found another one. They were all next
to each other. The fact is that we could have bought all
the clothes in the shop. It was so fun picking clothes
out.
After we bought bags and bags of clothes, we went to the
hairdressers. Mum told her to make my hair more
princess-like. The hairdresser started brushing my hair
and then cutting some of it. She put curls in the bottom
to give it a bit of bounce she said. She swung me around
the chair and Mum said that she finally had a daughter.
Due to magic, I was now transformed into a girl. For every
minute that went by I was starting to think like a girl.
When we got home, we showed Wyatt what we got at the
store. He just noticed that it was girl’s clothes. He
didn’t even notice that my hair was different. That is so
typical for boys, I thought. They wouldn’t notice a change
in a woman unless the roof fell down. I helped Mum put the
clothes away in my wardrobe. My mind was running around in
circles. Which clothes would I wear today? What should I
wear tomorrow?
I decided to wear a white tank top and pink panties,
tights and my new denim dress. Mum gave me a hug and said
that she always wished she had a daughter and now she got
her chance. I smiled back and gave Mum a hug. A part of me
was whispering to make me into a boy, but the voice was
not that loud. I felt so free in these clothes. I wanted
to dance around the room and celebrate that I got so many
clothes and a redecorated room.
A White light appeared in the room. Someone was warping
in. It was Dad.
“What happened here? Why is Chris’ bedroom like a girl’s
room? Has he suddenly become a sissy?”
“Well, it’s a long story. The short story is that he is
now Christina and is a girl.”
“A GIRL! You changed my son into a girl?”
“It was either that or a dog. You see Wyatt had a visit by
Barbas, that found out that Wyatt was afraid of losing his
little brother. So Wyatt tried a spell that went wrong and
changed Chris into a dog. I changed him into a human
again, but my potion was rushed and it changed him into a
girl.” Mum explained
Dad got very upset and paced back and forth while he was
looking at me and the bedroom. He was saying that we
should only do magic to help innocents. We should not use
magic on ourselves. Mum argued back and asked did Dad want
me to be a dog? They kept arguing. If there were two
adults that could fight, it was Dad and Mum. After a few
minutes, they were shouting into each other’s face. They
were not listening to what was being said or who was
saying it.
“Dad, I like my new room. I like my new clothes. I like my
new body. I like being a girl”
“Oh Chris, You’re starting to think you are a girl. Your
brain has accepted that you are a girl. Fight it son. Mum
can make a new potion. But if you don’t fight it, you
won’t be able to change into a boy again. Fight boy!” Dad
pleaded. Mum told him that it probably too late.
“Dad, I want to be a girl. I am a girl.”
“What about Football. (Soccer)?”
“I don’t want to play football anymore. I want to dance. I
want to do ballet.”
“And what do we tell your teachers, your friends, your
aunts, and everyone else who knows Chris”
“Well,” Mum said, “We can tell them that Chris has gone to
live with a relative and one of his cousins has come to
live here”
“What about Barbas?”
“We will give the children a potion, so if he comes again,
they could kill him”
Dad gave up. He gave me a hug and went back up to Heaven.
People accepted that I was a cousin. I quickly met new
friends. One thing that was fun was that we talked about
different things. Girls talked about clothes and boys. I
quickly thought of a girl. I loved my new friends. I was
still considered a Halliwell, one of the most powerful
witch families.
I didn’t go to football. Every day that went convinced me
that I would be happier doing ballet. I loved ballet. It
was the feeling that we were flying. The other girls were
much better than me, and that meant that I had to practice
a lot at home.
I was happy with my life and I have forgotten that I once
was a boy. I thought that boy’s clothes, toys and games
were boring. Mum slowly brought me things to let me pursue
my new hobbies. The relationship between us changed. We
had deeper conversations and did a lot more things
together. Mum was even teaching me how to do potions. The
only complaint that Mum had was that she had not raised me
as a little girl. She got me now; she never had a baby
girl.
I suppose the only one that was unhappy was Wyatt. He lost
a brother that he could play with. He lost a little
brother that he could wrestle with, play games with,
practice magic with. It was not as fun as with a sister.
A few weeks later, Wyatt was in the library in the magic
school Barbas showed his face once more.
“You have been a busy boy,” he said, “You think that your
brother is safe because he is now a girl. You are wrong. I
will tell all the demons who Christina really is. Oh, I
see that you still have the same fear, you now fear to
lose your own sister.”
Wyatt was mad. He got off the chair and ran towards
Barbas. Barbas waved his hand, and Wyatt went flying
against a wall. This made Barbas boast that Wyatt was not
powerful enough to stand up to Barbas. Wyatt staggered to
his feet and told Barbas that he would never harm me or
anyone in the family again. He took the potion that mum
gave him earlier and threw it at Barbas. Barbas’ face
stretched. You could see the pain on his face as it
stretched to over a meter. Then the face exploded. The
rest of Barbas’ body simmered until it was a bubbling
puddle on the floor.
Wyatt was now going to set things right in the family. He
thought about what his mother wanted. She wanted a baby
girl. He thought about the demons that will be after an
11-year-old girl. So Wyatt once had the solution. He cast
a spell.
I was in my room, but I knew that a spell had been cast
when I suddenly felt cramps and fell to the bed. There was
a pink fog swivelling around me. I started screaming and
crying. The next thing I knew was that Mum picked me up
and started consoling me.
“Don’t worry my baby daughter, “she said, “Everything is
fine. Mum will take care of you.”
