Truth Revealed
"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.
Leo looked around his surroundings almost falling down off the bridge. He rushed over to the wall wondering how did he get up there, one minute he was agruing with Piper and the next he was here. He looked foward admiring the hustle and bustle below, man how he missed coming up here. Suddenly he heard the sounds of orbs and turned around to see them form into two familiar faces.
"Piper honey, where is Leo?" Paige asked as she looked at her sister. She had been crying, maybe Leo had the guts to tell her what he did.
"I dont know one minute we were arguing the next..." Piper said as her tears subsided. Now that she had stopped crying she was starting to think clearly and something just dawned on her.
"What, what happened next?" Phoebe asked
"He orbed out." Piper said with a shock expression on her face.
"What excuse me what do you mean he orbed. Leo cant orb he is mortal. Isnt he?" Phoebe asked with a surprise look on her face.
"YES OF COURSE HE IS MORTAL." Piper screamed letting her anger get the best of her.
"Oh Im sorry honey maybe someone orbed him to them?" Paige said trying to seem optimistic. Inside she was terrified for her brother in law.
"See Piper that must have happened dont worry Leo is fine. Umm there is somethink we have to tell you." Phoebe started as she looked towards Paige to indicate what she was going to say.
"No its ok guys I already know I heard you guys talking and I confronted Leo, he seemed surprised and a little while after that he orbed out." Piper said sitting herself comfortably on the couch.
"Surprised he seemed surprise. You are telling me that he didnt know that Rachel was his daughter?" Paige asked.
"Yea just like that I think that we should summon her spirit and find out why all the secrecy and maybe something about the demon." Piper said as she headed up the stairs.
"Sandra, Odin what are you doing here? What am I doing here?" Leo asked as he slowly inched over to his past collegues.
"Leo we brought you here because..." Sandra started trying to find the right words to say. But before she could utter another word her collegues Odin did it for her.
"You have found out the truth about Rachel." Odin said.
"WHAT YOU GUYS KNEW!" Leo screamed outraged. He was furious that Linda told the elder instead of him.
"Yea Leo we knew, we always knew. Why do you think that we reassigned Rachel another whitelighter instead of you?" Odin asked. Leo looked at them a little confused at first but then the answer hit him.
"Eventually I would have found out the truth." Leo replied. "But why.."
"Because that would screw up your destiny with the witch. The birth of the Twice blessed." Odin said.
"Odin we can not tell him everything he will have to discover the rest on his own for no we shall return you but Leo remember this Family is family regardless of where you come from." Sandra said as she waved her hand Leo disappeared in a swirl of lights.
"Sandra why didnt you allow me to tell him of her powers, her destiny."
"Because Odin he has to find out on his own." Sandra said as they orbed into the heavens.
"You sure you want to do this Piper." Phoebe asked as she lit the last candle.
"No but still we need answers."
"Ok"
Hear these words
Hear my cry
Spirit from the other side
Come to me I summon the
Cross now the great divide
A great gust of wind entered the attic as it formed into the shape of a woman.
"Blessed be." the woman shaped spirit said as she stepped out of the circle.
"Yea hi are you the spirit of Linda?" Piper asked as she looked at the woman. She had hair similar to hers but shorter and had dark brown eyes.
"Yes I am it is finally nice to meet you Piper." Linda said as she streched out her hand.
"Yes how do you know my name?" Piper asked.
"Well I have seen your wedding pictures and by the way Leo talked about you I feel like I already know you."
"Really, well we will have time for pleasantries later we need to ask you some questions about Rachel."
"Is she alright, the demon didnt get her right."
"Yes she is alright she is in the conservatory downstairs." Paige answered. Phoebe was in shock looking at the similarities between her sister and Linda.
"Why dont we go downstairs and talk." Piper said knocking Phoebe out of her daze.
Leo felt a quesy feeling in his stomach as he reappeared into their bedroom. He looked around and noticed Piper wasnt in there then he scolded himself as he remembered the last thing he said to her. He had never yelled at Piper before and he felt so bad that he did. He someone walking down the stairs and decided to go see who it was.
Just as the sisters arrived in the conservatory, Rachel looked up and saw her mom.
"Mommy you're back." she said as she hugged her mom.
"Hey honey, are you being a good girl for the nice ladies?" Linda asked as she played with her daughter's dirty blonde hair.
"Yes ma'am, and guess who I saw? Leo is here too!" Rachel said.
"I know that's why I sent you here I know you would like being with him, why dont you go back and play with your new friends while I talk with the ladies ok?"
"Yes mommy." Rachel said as she skipped over to Wyatt.
The sisters stood watching the scene that had just happened. Then they look at Linda as she sat on a chair with tears glistening in her eyes. Phoebe felt extremely sorry for her.
"Im sorry we brought you here." she said
"No it ok you need answers, that is the only way that I could truly move on." Linda said as she wiped a stray tear from her face. "Now lets get down to business, I think you had a premonition that needs explaining." she said as she looked at Phoebe.
"Yea how did you know?" Phoebe asked.
"Well I had the same premonition, when I got the chain I didnt know what it meant at first but as time passed I did." Linda explained.
"So was it true? Is Rachel, Leo's daughter?" Piper asked already knowing the answer.
"Yes but he doesnt even know." Linda said as she avoided looking at Piper. She could feel her hurt.
"Why didnt you tell me?" Leo said as he entered the room. Everyone turned to look at him as he walked over to them.
"I was scared." Linda said looking to the floor.
"Leo, um when did all this happen?" Paige asked. "I mean did you.."
"No I didnt cheat on Piper." Leo said looking at her.
"But when.." Piper asked but than realised it.
"When you were with Dan. I mean I knew Linda from before I became your whitelighter, we were good friends. But I found out that we had feelings for each other but that was against the rules so we kept being friends. But than I met you and I fell in love with you. So I broke the rules, she knew of our relationship and was really happy for me. After I left here when I saw you with Dan, I came back here and we kissed starting our relationship. When Rachel happened I..." Leo said looking to Linda to continue.
"Well after he came back from seeing you with that thing about the water demon he came here and that was when the first part of the premonition happened. The second part was a few weeks after that I hadnt heard from Leo. The other part of the premonition occurred after he got his wings back. He was so happy about being back together with you I didnt wanna say anything that would stop him from being happy." Linda said as she looked to the sisters. Then she turned her gaze to Leo seeing he was looking down. She lifted his head up. "I wanted to tell you but than the Elders threatened to take Rachel from me if I did they believed it would interfer with you destiny so I didnt."
"So its my fault why I dont know my daughter." Leo said with his voice dripping with guilt.
"No its my fault if I never went to be with Dan..." Piper started.
"No its none of you guys fault I wanted Rachel to have a normal life as possible. Which is why someone is coming to pick her up very soon. An old friend of mine, someone who is very close to Rachel." Linda said as she got up. "Now for the demons, his name is Damien, he is after Rachel's whitelighter powers and a simple power of three spell will vanquish him. Just use the summoning spell you used for Balthazor ok." Linda took one more glance at her beautiful daughter knowing that this maybe the last time. "Leo, keep an eye on our little angel. Blessed be." she said as she disappeared.
"Piper I.." Leo started but only to be cut off by a little finger his lips.
"Dont apologise honey it was my fault I should not have accused you of anything. We'll talk later now we have to vanquish the demon after your daughter." Piper said as she and her sisters walked up the stairs.
"Ok lets get this show on the road, potions ready." Phoebe said.
"Yep all set." Paige said as she stepped next to her sisters.
"Ok."
Magic forces black and white
Reach out through space and light
Be ye far or be ye near
Bring us the demon Damien here
Suddenly a demon appeared before them and before he could say anything he was gone as soon as he arrived.
"That was quick now we need to go check on the kids." Paige said as she orbed her sisters downstairs. Then the door bell rang. Piper cautiously walked over to answer the door. She could not believe her eyes of who stood before she could only mutter one word.
"DAN" but that was not the only shocking thing. A little Rachel ran out to the room to see what was going on. She looked in the direction of the door and saw someone familiar.
"Daddy?"
