It was all over. All the fighting, the bloodshed, the vanquishes. They were still the Charmed Ones, but they were no longer active.
As relieved as Piper Halliwell was, she still couldn't believe it.
It had been eight years. The eight longest and most painful years of her life.
How could so much have changed in so little time? Prue was dead, she was married with two children, they found their long lost sister, and now were the most powerful witches in the world.
Piper was still in a bit of shock.
A creak sounded from up above her, and Leo orbed into the room.
"Hey babe," she said, placing her hands on his chest as he wrapped her in his arms.
A gentle kiss was placed on Piper's head. "You ok?" Leo asked. "You've been down here for at least an hour and a half."
Piper glanced at the clock, and sure enough an amount of time had passed. The large blinking red light read 3:30 A.M.
"Wow.."
Piper rubbed her eyes. "I'm sorry. I think I'm just out of it."
Leo sat down, pulling Piper into his arms.
"Thinking about Prue?"
The brunette nodded, bringing her head to a rest on Leo's shoulder.
"I know it's been years...but I miss her."
"That's to be expected. I can't say that I don't feel the same way. She was an amazing person and witch."
Leo began to stroke his wife's long hair, wanting to comfort her.
"I keep thinking that she would have loved this life that I have...that we have. She's missed so much, Leo. It's just not fair."
"I know it's not. But who said life is fair?"
"Sometimes I think, 'why couldn't it have been her you had saved?' She was a damn better witch than I was, and you know that."
Leo was silent for a moment.
"Maybe she was...maybe she wasn't. It shouldn't matter Piper. Maybe it was fate's way of intervening so Paige could step in and take control of her destiny. Think about it. Prue's death made you a much better witch, and a much stronger person."
Piper sighed, tilting up her head to get a look at her husband.
"This world is so screwed up."
"That's why you're here: to make it better."
"Well the world had better be happy. I've..we've gone through so much."
"It's all over."
"Yeah..I guess it is...Leo?"
"Hm?"
"Thanks."
"Anytime."
"I love you Leo."
"I love you too, Piper. "
OK. I know that it wasn't the best story, especially since I haven't watched the later seasons of Charmed in awhile. By the way, they are coming out with a Charmed comic book series, continuing where the show left off on Season 9! I'm pretty psyched.
Anyway. Once again, not sure how great that was, pretty sure it wasn't that great at all. But it would indeed help my ego if you reviewed. Haha. Have a good day..I'm shutting up now.
