Finding a new type of innocent
Piper Halliwell Wyatt laid in her bed as the sun shown through the window waking her up. She looked over at the clock and it was 8:00, she knew that the boys would be up soon and that they would be very hungry but she made no effort to get out of bed. She turned around and saw her husband Leo Wyatt fast asleep with a protective arm around her. She couldnt believe that she had finally won the battle and now had Leo, her lover, her soulmate back with her. She gently moved foward and gave him a gentle kiss which instantly awoke him as he tried to deepen it.
"Morning." Leo said as his green eyes started to open.
"Morning, how did you sleep?" Piper said as she looked at her husband with loving eyes.
"Great considering that I woke up with you in my arms." Leo said fully awake.
"I know what you mean I am so glad to have you back." Piper said as she lent in gave him a passionate kiss. The kiss began to get more passionate by the moment and Piper felt as if she was in heaven. Until she heard a cry coming out of the room next door. She reluctantly broke the kiss and looked at her husband.
"Well you wanted a normal life." Leo joked as him and Piper got out of bed and made their way to their boys bedroom.
Phoebe Halliwell walked into her office at the Bay Mirror for the first day as a married woman. Well although this wasnt the first time she was married, she was happily married and knew that nothing could change it. She married to a Cupid, a man who knew nothing but the way to a girl's heart and she was mostly satisfied. As she approached her desk to look through her Ask Phoebe letters, one particular one caught her eye. It was in an envelop covered with drawings of sad faces and the writing on the top looked as if a 5 year old wrote it. As she picked it up she was pulled into a premonition.
Premonition- A woman was rushing into a house craddling a little girl in her arms who was crying hysterically, she rushed and placed the girl in a small room and locked the door. She glanced at the clock and it 11:00. She heard a crash and went outside where she saw a demon shimmered in covered with tribal marks. The demon was telling her that he wants the girl and she told him over her dead body and he said as you wished and hurled a fireball at the woman.
As Phoebe was pulled out of the premonition, she could feel the heat from the fireball. "Oh no not again." Phoebe said as she looked at the clock.
"Paige, Paige, Pai..." Phoebe as she was interrupted by her sister orbing into the newstand.
"Hey hon, you are already back from your honeymoon?" Paige said as she looked at her sister.
"Yea and well sister bonding later I just got a premonition and not a very good one." Phoebe said.
"Was there a demon involved?" Paige said as a little bit of annoyance entered her voice. They had recently vanquished the Triad she believe that at least they would have a longer vacation.
"Yea can you orb me to the manor, we might need the power of three and from my premonition we might not have a lot of time." Phoebe said as she grabbed her sister's hand to orb out.
Downstair in the kitchen, Piper was making breakfast while Leo was getting the boys ready. She could hear the laughter coming down the stairs. She turned around to see Leo a half dressed Chris and a mix matched sock wearing Wyatt carefully tucked under each of his arms respectively. She laughed at Leo who looked worn out as he sat them down.
"Hey honey need help?" Piper asked in a sacastic tone.
"Very funny, Wyatt insisted that he dress himself then Chris saw this and wouldnt let me finish dressing him." Leo said as he sat down.
"Yea, me a big boy." Wyatt said as he showed his mother his clothes.
"I can see that. Here is breakfast, enjoy." Piper said as she placed a plate of pancakes on the table.
"Yay pancakes." Wyatt said as he reached for one.
"Yea pannycake." Chris said as he mimicked what his brother did.
Everything was going good at the table and everyone was laughing, until a swirl of orbs filled the room forming the shape of her two sisters.
"Hey sis.." Piper started on a cheery mood but then saw the expression on her sisters's face and knew this wasnt a friendly visit but a business one. "What now?"
"Well I had a premonition of a woman being attacked by a demon trying to protect her daughter when I touched this letter." Phoebe explained as they headed up the stairs to indentified the demon.
"Well how do you know it hasnt happened yet?" Piper said, she wasnt in the mood to go out demon hunting. She had just got Leo back and was in no mood to leave him just yet.
"Well the clock in my premonition had 11:00 on it and it after 10 now." Phoebe said as she walked towards the book of shadows to identify the demon, while Paige scryed for the girl.
"Got her, you guys ready." Paige asked as she walked over to her sisters.
"Yea lets go."
"Shh, hold on Rachel we are almost safe." Linda said as she held her daughter close.
"But mommy the bad man is going to get us." Rachel said as she clung to her mother.
"No just do what I told you and you will be safe no matter what happens I want you to know I love you." Linda said while tears were running down her face.
"Ok mommy I love you too." Rachel said as her mother placed her in the storage room. Suddenly a loud thump came from downstairs.
"Be safe my darling." Linda said as she closed the door looking at her daughter knowing it would be the last time. Suddenly a demon shimmered in with a smirk on his face.
"Linda, you should have known I would have found you, now where is she?" the demon said.
"I love my baby and I wont tell you not over my dead body." Linda said wiping the tears from off her chin.
"Ok as you wish." the demon said as he conjured a fireball. As he was throwing it towards Linda he heard the sound of orbs behind her and saw it shape into three witches. He hurriedly continued his task killing Linda and shimmering out.
"Oh my god we were too late." Phoebe said as she saw what had just happened.
"I'm sorry Phoebe, wait do you hear crying." Paige said as she heard something coming from the door next to her. She opened it and saw a little girl with blonde hair running down her shoulders crying her eyes out. Piper maternal instincts kicked in and she rushed over and hugged the little girl. She lifted her and carried her to her sisters and they orbed out.
At the manor Paige and Phoebe were trying to get some information from the girl while went to get her some cookies and milk.
"What's your name?" Paige asked as she sat next to the girl.
"Rachel, who are you?" Rachel said with a little fear.
"I'm Paige and this my sister Phoebe. How old are you?"
"I'm six I have to go cause the bad guy is going to come here." Rachel said as she tried to get up but only to be pushed back on the chair by Phoebe.
"I'm sorry that is why we cant let you go cause someone is after you. Do you know anything about the bad guy?" Phoebe said as she sat next to the girl.
"Well he was my mommy's boyfriend and he was very nice until my mommy told him a secret than he tried to hurt us." Rachel said as tears were coming out of her eyes.
"Secret what secret?" Piper asked as she came into the room and placed the cookies infront of Rachel.
"Well my mommy and me have these powers and she uses it to make the bad guys go away. Can I have one please?" Rachel asked as she looked at the cookies.
"Of course..by the way my name is Piper."
"Ok these are very good, do you have powers too?" Rachel asked as she ate the cookie. Suddenly the sound of Leo's voice filled the house.
"Piper you home?" Leo asked walking into the house.
"Upstairs in the attic" Piper said then she looked at Rachel and saw her face brighten.
"Is t-that Leo?" Rachel asked with hope in her voice.
"Yes how do you..." Piper said but was interrupted by the girl running out her grasps downstairs towards Leo.
The sisters followed the girl dumbfounded wondering how Rachel knew Leo. When the arrived downstairs they saw a surprised but happy Leo with a little Rachel by his side.
"I just knew you would come back mommy thought you were dead but I said no you wouldnt do that without tell me." Rachel said as she looked at Leo.
"Um honey how do you know Rachel?" Piper said as she walked up towards her husband.
"Well her mother was a charge of mine when I was a whitelighter and I knew Rachel since she was born." Leo said making sure he chose his words closely.
"Yea he use to take me to the park, the circus, the bridge. Leo can we go to the bridge pretty please?" Rachel asked as she was playing with baby Chris.
"Um Rache I dont have my powers anymore but I can do something equally as fun you see these two boys. These my sons Wyatt and Chris. And that woman up there is my wife Piper." Leo said bending down to eyelevel with Rachel.
"This is your family?" Rachel asked as she looked Leo who nodded. "But what about me you and mommy I thought we were a family?" Rachel asked as she looked as if she was going to cry. But before Leo could answer Rachel spoke again. "do you still love me?"
"Of course I do Rache and you are still my family but look it has gotton bigger. You know I love you, you are like a daughter to me." Leo said wiping a stray tear from Rachel's face.
"I know its just that I havent seen you in like a year. Am I still your princess?" Rachel asked.
"Yes you are my little Princess Rache ok." Leo said pulling Rachel into a hug.
"Ok so can I go play with Wyatt and Chris they are so cute." Rachel said with a smile on her face.
"Of course you can." Leo said getting up leading Rachel into the conservatory. Piper soon followed.
"Look Paige, this bracelet looks like it fell off of Rachel." Phoebe as she picked it up and was pulled into a premonition.
Premonition- The woman who died was in a room sitting next to a crying Leo trying to comfort him. Then she lifted his head and looked into his eyes and leaned in and kissed him. He didnt pull away instead he deepened the kiss and they slowly started making love.
The same woman was in a bathroom now holding a positive pregnancy test in her hands. "What am I going to tell Leo?" she whispered.
The woman looking fully pregnant wobbled over to the couch when Leo orbed in.
"Hey Linds what you're pregnant congradulations." Leo said with a smile on his face.
"Yea you said you have news." Linds said
"Yea well me and Piper are back together working things out isnt it great."
"Yea Im happy for you."
"What did you want to tell me it sounded so important?"
"Oh nothing Leo only that I'm pregnant and the father isnt going to be around so would you be the baby's god father?"
"Of course."
End Premonition
"Phoebe are you ok?" Paige asked as she rushed over to her sister.
"Oh my god." Phoebe whispered as she got up.
"Phoebe what did you see?" Paige asked with her voice full of concern.
"I just saw Rachel's mother and Leo they were more that friends they were lovers and Leo is Rachel's real father." Phoebe said as her voice trembled. She couldnt believe it, she never would have thought that Leo would have cheated on Piper.
"What are you sure?" Paige asked.
"Yea."
"But wouldnt that mean that he.." Paige asked not wanting to finish her statement because it hurt to think of Leo as a cheater.
"Yea."
"Do you think Piper knows?" Paige asked.
Piper stood behind the door, listening to her sisters talking. Leo cheated on her and has another kid? Everything started to make sense of how well he knew Rachel. Why didnt he tell her She was about to get to the bottom of it. She went into the conservatory and saw the most beautiful site. Her husband, her boys and Leo's daughter. If he had told her the truth this site would be perfect. But now she was mad at him, she wanted answers and she wanted them now.
"Leo can I talk to you a minute?" Piper asked trying to mask her anger infront of the children.
"Sure honey, Princess can you keep an eye on the boys?" Leo asked as he got up. Piper flinched. She knew how much Leo wanted a daughter and it hurt her that he had one not with her.
"Of course." Rachel replied tossing her blonde hair. Piper stood thinking how she could miss it Rachel had Leo's hair abd eyes.
"Thanks." Leo said as he got up and placed a kiss on the top of Rachel's head and walked towards Piper, who led him upstairs.
"So Phoebe do you think Leo loved her?" Paige asked as her and Phoebe looked through the book of shadows.
"I dont know maybe we should ask Coop?" Phoebe suggested. Not only because she wanted to know but also because she wanted to see her husband.
"Ok call him." Paige said as Phoebe closed her eyes and concentrated on Coop as he transported into the room.
"Hi honey." Phoebe said as she walked over and kissed her husband.
"Hey, hi Paige." Coop said noting her presence.
"Hi Coop, we called you to know if you can sense if a person loved or still loves someone." Paige said as she moved away from the book.
"Yea I could but you have to be more specific who is the person?"
"Leo, I had a premonition of him and this woman and I want to know if he loved her." Phoebe said.
"Do you have a name of the person or the thing that triggered the premonition." Coop asked with concern in his voice.
"Yea this bracelet and her name is Linda." Phoebe said as she handed the bracelet to Coop. A few moments passed and it looked as if Coop was in deep thought. "Well."
"I'm sorry Phoebe but appearently Leo did love Linda." Coop said. He saw his wife and sister in law's face fell knowing that he had just confirmed something that they already knew.
"Ok honey that's all I will see you later." Phoebe said as she gave her husband a kiss before he transported out.
"So who do you think we should tell first Piper or Leo?" Paige asked.
"I think Leo because it wouldnt be our place to be the one to tell Piper." Phoebe said.
"What did you want to talk about honey." Leo asked as he sat on the edge of their bed.
"Dont you honey me cause I found out your secret." Piper said with her voice full of anger.
"How?"
"Phoebe had a premonition."
"Well Piper the only reason why I didnt tell you because other than the fact that I didnt want to lose you I didnt seen the relevance of telling you."
"What how can you say that."
"Well considering it was a mistake I..."
"LEO WYATT HOW DARE YOU CALL YOUR DAUGHTER A MISTAKE!"
"What daughter?"
"Dont act foolish with me Leo Wyatt, I know that Rachel is your daughter."
Leo looked at Piper unsure what to say or do. Rachel is my daughter. How could this happen? Well he knew how but when it must have been when...but that was a mistake. Is that why Linda didnt tell him. Seeing his reaction, Piper came to the conclusion that Leo was as surprised as she was.
"You mean you didnt know?"
"No, dont you think I would have told you if I knew."
Darron shimmered into the cave thinking of what to do next. How could he have let the girl go? He was so close but he had to complete his mission. If the seer was telling the truth, this little girl would grow up to the end of his kind forever. He walked back and forth trying to figure out how to get to her.
"Leo, you need to Rachel the truth."
"How Piper, I ... I would always tell her stories of how my dad was never around and how I would never be like that and now I find out in a way I am like that." Leo said as he sat down.
"This is different you didnt know."
"Yea I would like to know why I didnt know either." Leo said as he rubbed his temple. "Have you found anything about the demon that .." he couldnt bring it to himself to say it. It was still too fresh. Piper saw this.
"No we didnt I think we should summon her from the dead to get some answers."
"Piper I dont know if I could do this."
"Leo you need to.."
"NO PIPER I SAID I CANT DO IT." Leo screamed. Piper looked at him he looked like a completely different man. She never saw or heard Leo talk like that especially to her. Leo let a frustrating sigh and orbed out leaving a confused Piper behind.
In the conservatory, Rachel and Wyatt were talking about their life as much as some little children can.
"So how do you know my daddy?" Wyatt asked.
"Well he was always there and he was sorta like a daddy to me."
"But where is your real daddy?" Wyatt asked with concern in his eyes.
"Well I dont know I never met him he was never there." she said as she closed her eyes. Wyatt saw that was a touchy subject so he moved on.
"What about your mommy, was she there?"
"Yea I love my mommy very much, she would always tuck me in and keep the bad men away."
"She sounds nice, where is she?"
"She's ..gone." Rachel said as she began to cry. Wyatt at first didnt know what to do, but he had seen his mommy cry and what his daddy would do. So he followed the suit. He pulled Rachel into a hug and patted her back until she stopped crying.
"Thank you Wyatt."
"Its ok, so where will you be now?" Wyatt asked.
"I dont know, maybe we could ask your dad."
"Ok but first we need finish building out city before Chris comes and breaks it down." Wyatt said as they continued their playing. Behind them in the doorway stood Piper watching the whole scene. It brought a tear to her eye.
"Dammit I cant find anything about the demon." Paige said as she closed the book.
"Well how are we suppose to save Leo's daughter?" Phoebe asked as she motioned Paige to sit next to her.
"I dont know maybe we should summon her spirit maybe she would know something about the demon." Paige saaid as she sat down.
"Yea that could work but we need Piper."
"I think she is downstairs." Paige said as she got up and followed Phoebe out of the attic. Little did they know that someone was in the shadows watching their every move.
"So how is things with Henry?" Phoebe asked desperately trying to change the subject.
"Good you know he is getting more use to my witchy duties." Paige replied as they reached downstairs. Phoebe was getting ready to call Piper but felt a little tap on her shoulder, which was from Paige pointing to a crying Piper.
"Piper, honey what's the matter?" Paige asked already knowing the answer. Leo must have told her.
"She has no one, magic took everything away from her she is just a child and has felt more pain than anyone should have." Piper said shaking her head trying to fight back the tears. Phoebe tried calming her down unknown of what caused her outburst.
"Honey who are you talking about?" Phoebe asked determined to get some answers. But Piper didnt answer she started to gaze out.
"Maybe we should call Leo?" Paige said
"No I... he wont come..I dont.." Piper mumered through her tears. Being satisfied the demon, who was watching shimmered with a smirk on his face and an idea forming into his head.
"Master I know how we could get the sisters." the demon said as he shimmered into the underworld.
