Chapter 3: Secrets In The Night

"Chris where did you go on us back there ?" Prue asked her cousin as he helped her up off the ground. The new power of three had once again found themselves in the underworld thanks to a premonition that Phoebe had, had of a demon attacking her and her sisters.

Chris had zoned out on his cousins in the middle of a demon attack he had been pulled into a flashback that was twice in that many days. This one hadn't been one of the somewhat pleasant ones from his trip to the past. No this had been one of those from the dark future where Wyatt was evil maybe he hadn't saw all there was to see. That thought wasn't a comfort to him he was having trouble keeping the two time lines seperate. He found himself flinching when his brother even looked at him harshly.

He didn't mind the ones from his trip to the past so much it was kinda cool to see what his mom and his aunts were like back then. It was the ones from the unchanged future the bothered him the most he just couldn't reconcile with himself that his brother would do any of those things that he was seeing him do. The Wyatt he knew and loved would never hire a demon to hurt him or anyone in their family for that matter.

"Sorry Ladybug I'm tired as hell I can't imagine why we have been down here since four this morning it's seven now and then before that we didn't get any rest because we were trying to figure out how to send Lady Pain in the Ass and Sir Know it All back to where they came from. My reaction time has been slowed greatly." Chris lied quickly Prue knowing something like that was like putting an add in the paper.

"Well your zoning out got me knocked on my ass Chrissy." Prue whined all she wanted to do was crawl in her bed but sadly that wasn't an option for her.

Henry dusted himself off and sent his older cousin a sharp look he needed to tell her because his zoning out like that affected both of them too. "Chris I am giving you until this is all over with to tell her or I will." He sent to him this was crazy not only did he have himself and the demons to watch but he had to make sure Chris didn't get killed when he got into one of those zones he seemed to be so fond of. "I think that we should probably get back before Lizzie has a chance to do terrible things to Lady Guinevere. I don't know about you but I just don't trust the two of them alone together."

Chris groaned out loud stretching his aching muscles "We need to stop off at the manor first and let the aunts know that we took care of the threat. It sucks that we got stuck pulling double duty here but I don't think we are going to get much sympathy from them right now."

"I think that maybe we should get of here before another demon has a chance to attack because if you ask me the Charmed Ones make a pretty nice target." Prue rambled on something that got much worse when she was going on no sleep like she was now.

"I agree Ladybug lets get the hell out of here." Henry said taking her hand and Chris took the other they orbed out to the manor to face the music so to speak.


"What if something went wrong guys ? What if my baby got hurt ?" Phoebe asked she was pacing like mad in the middle of the living room at the manor.

Prue rolled her eyes at her baby sister "Pheebs if something went wrong they would have had enough sense to call Andy for help. And I don't think I have to remind you that our other two sisters sent their babies down there too Prue didn't go alone." She was sitting calmly on the couch next to Paige.

"I for one would kind of like to know what they were still doing up at four this morning." Piper mused out loud when they hadn't answered their calls they had sent Andy to go find them.

"Who knows with them Piper there is no telling what they were doing for all we know they were preparing to strike against the source. I still can't believe Henry lied to me for months." Paige ranted her son never lied to her and she didn't like it that he was starting to get in that habit.

"Andy said that they were at magic school when he found them they were in the mythical tales classroom. So your guess is as good as mine as to what they were doing." Prue replied.

Phoebe continued on with her pacing this was normally Piper's area but she was surprisingly calm it might have had something to do with the fact that she was still pissed at all of them. "I swear I haven't slept that bad since she was a teenager and decided to stay out all night with her friends."

"Pheebs we would know if they weren't ok it's one of the perks of magic. I'm sure that it just took them a little while to find the demon you know as well as I do that these things take time." Leo said walking in on the scene he would have known if something was wrong with Chris while he couldn't sense him he still knew that he was fine.

"Leo you are not helping right now you know how she gets when it comes to these things it's better to just let her get it all out. None of us really slept good after she had that premonition." Paige said sighing.

Just then a cluster of orbs appeared in the room revealing the three people in question they were a little battered and dusty looking but really they were no worse for the wear.

"Where in the hell have you three been ?" Phoebe demanded she had been worried out of her mind about Prue.

"Mom we're fine we're all here in one piece I promise except I think one of us left his mind in the underworld and it wasn't my brown eyed cousin either it was the other one." Prue was not going to let Chris live that down very easily.

Paige looked concerned at Chris she knew that could only mean one thing he only shrugged in response " Is the demon gone ?" she asked.

"Demon is gone and forgot about it just took like forever to find him." Henry assured his mother and aunts.

Chris nodded in agreement "Let that be a lesson to us next time we try and scry before we run around down there for hours looking for a demon."

"See there Pheebs we all told you that was what was taking them so long but you never believe anyone you have to learn things the hard way." Prue said once again rolling her eyes at her sister.

"So guys tell me about what you were doing at magic school." Piper said conversationally but it was more in the nature of an order.

Prue got an indignant look on her face "Why that little rat he is supposed to be our whitelighter he isn't supposed to tell you guys everything we do. Damn it Uncle Andy I knew I should have pushed harder for Uncle Leo."

Leo chuckled at his niece the girl went off about the most irrelevant things "Prue you three are dodging the question just tell us what you were doing there." he instructed his years as a teacher serving him well.

"It was a thirteen thing even though there were only eleven of us Troy and Cal got off easy on this one. And I swear Wyatt better of found out something if I go back there and he is sleeping God help him because no one else will be able to." Chris fumed he knew his brother too well.

"That is still not answering the question."Paige said in a sing song voice.

Henry rolled his brown eyes "Lady Guinevere and her equally annoying brother stepped through a portal in our living room last night. Apparently if we don't help them Camelot is doomed and the world will be plunged into darkness the usual so we are trying to figure out what the hell is going on. Which would be why we were up at four this morning we were researching." he explained.

Phoebe had to stifle a laugh it wasn't funny but she couldn't help herself. "And I thought we did some interesting stuff but that takes the cake."

"That is not the best part Lady Pain in the Ass in convinced Wyatt is Arthur and she keeps throwing herself at him. It's pissing Liz off to no end so I'm pretty sure she might kill her." Prue said that part was funny even she thought so.

Leo arched an eyebrow "Would you guys like some help ?" he asked knowing they would never ask for help themselves.

"We would love some help dad we have no clue what is going on and they keep calling me Daniel and Hank Vincent." Chris replied gratefully.

"Sir Vincent and Sir Daniel were brothers they were also first cousins to King Arthur it makes sense that is would be you two." Leo was spouting out useless facts that he knew.

"Who the hell was Lady Prudence because I'm about sick of being called that. ?" Prue asked it annoyed the hell out of her to be called by her given name it reminded her of what she had to live up to.

"Lady Prudence was the wife of Sir Griffin they also happened to be first cousins I know it sounds bad but that was how they did things back then. Sir Griffin was Lady Guinevere's older brother." Leo replied after searching his memory for what he needed to know.

"Why would they think we were them ?" Chris asked he needed to know it was annoying the hell out of him.

"Simple answer it was your past lives things get jumbled up over time. But we tend to run in the same circles over time. If I'm not mistaken Vincent was Daniel's older brother. Obviously that is not the case anymore you are Hank's older cousin." Leo explained again.

"Look on the bright side Ladybug you and Chip are soul mates." Henry chuckled.

"Ew that is too much for me to think about it's bad enough that I was married to my cousin but Roman was my brother you know how I feel about him." Prue said trying to get the bad thoughts out of her head.

"My guess is he would have been Sir Alexander because correct me if I'm wrong Sir Alexander was married to Lady Melinda that is not that hard to figure out." Paige said it was odd that she would know so much about the legend of Camelot.

Leo smirked this one was really going to get Prue "Lady Melinda and Lady Prudence were sisters so Sir Alexander married his sister."

"Oh that is wrong on so many levels someone seriously needs to talk to Mel about that." Prue raved this was too much for her to handle.

"Yeah but weren't Sir Alexander and Lady Guinevere cousins ?" Phoebe asked she too was a little too knowledgeable about this.

"Yes they were, Arthur, Matthew, Daniel, and Vincent were all related. So were Griffin, Guinevere, Gavin, Gauge, James, and Alexander." Piper answered her sister.

Prue raised her hand like a kid in one of her classes "Ok they had the G thing going on like we do the P thing."

"Pretty much hold on to your hats because they might not be the best part. If memory serves Vincent had a thing for two cousins Lady Bianca and Lady Oriana I can't remember now which one he ended up with." Leo said laughing at the look on his nephew's face.

"Great apparently I've had that whole little love triangle going on since the dawn of time." Henry shook his head.

"If anyone wants to know what Prue thinks. I think that Henry needs to end up with B but those are just my personal feelings." Prue smiled at her cousin who shot her a death glare.

Chris clapped his hands "Way to go dad get her started on those two."

"You mentioned something about Sir James ?" Henry asked ignoring his cousins.

"Yes he was Lady Prudence's brother." Piper answered her nephew.

"That has to be Troy they were looking for him last night." Chris said simply.

"Who did Sir James end up with?" Prue asked she was a true romantic at heart.

"Lady Valerie I do believe." Phoebe said she was a little rusty on all of this.

Chris and Henry shared a look they had been there for Liz's little vision quest when she saw Val and Troy together. "Oh that is just great this just keeps getting worse and worse." Prue fumed.

"Dad ignore Prue we all do I need to know about these couplings it could help." Chris said he knew that she would be pissed about that.

"Vincent and Daniel had a sister Lady Charlotte I can't recall now who she ended up with. I can tell you more when we get to my office. But Sir Gavin and Lady Janice were an item I think they were also cousins." Leo replied to his son.

"Hank was it just me or did Sir Gavin look an awful lot like Jason ?" Chris asked his cousin.

"He did look like Jason meaning Lady Janice was Carly. And Lady Charlotte had to be Charlie." Henry answered his eyes going wide.

"I just remembered for Leo Lady Charlotte ended up with Daniel they were half brother and sister she was older than Daniel too. She and Vincent shared a mother." Paige had an eureka moment.

"That is sick I don't want those thoughts about my sweet baby cousin in my head that is almost as bad as if it were Mel." Chris groaned.

"It could be worse Sir Gauge could only be one person and he was married to Lady Penelope I know that he loves her but that is a bit much." Phoebe said.

"Please don't tell me that Jakie was married to Butterfly ?" Prue begged.

"Oh he was they called him Gauge last night." Chris was feeling a bit better that at least he hadn't been married to his sister.

"If it makes it any better he was really in love with Lady Lila and they had an on going affair." Leo offered knowing that mental image would never leave Prue.

"Which one of you is Sir Matthew ?" Piper asked she was just a little curious and too tired to go through process of elimination.

"Parker which it's funny since Wyatt barely trusts him." Henry laughed a little.

"Arthur didn't fully trust Matthew either his most trusted knight was Sir Daniel and then Sir Griffin. Next came Matthew and Gauge. Daniel sat at his right hand and Griffin at his left." Leo went on.

"That sounds about right with Wy, Coop, and Chuck." Chris mused.

"Like I said though I can tell you more when we get to my office we can go now if you really want to." Leo was only there to help them.

"No they are not going anywhere until they eat. They ran around in the underworld half the night for us the least I can do is feed them." Piper put her foot down.

Paige pointed to her son who was asleep on his feet "Hank needs coffee lots and lots of black coffee. They all do actually they look wiped out."

"Mom I hate coffee." Henry semi whined.

"Which is why you are in question as a Halliwell." Prue smirked at her nephew.

"Aunt Prue normally I would be ready with some witty comment but right now I'm just too tired to fight with you. You win this round but be warned I won't be this nice next time." Henry said wiping the fatigue off by running his hands over his face.

"I hope the dumb asses found out something because I want those two gone as quick as possible." Chris sighed .

"I'll get the book and see if it has anything, Prue you get Troy, Chris you track down Cal." Henry said before he orbed the book of shadows down to him.

"Have you heard of personal gain ?" Prue asked her nephew

"Yes and I must say that a little personal gain is good for the soul. But this hardly counts as personal gain because I am getting the book to save good magic." Henry shot back his wit returning for a moment.

"Good you and Aunt Prue are even now lets get this show on the road when this is over I'm going to sleep for like ten hours." Prue said picking up her cell phone to dial Troy.


Bad guys and dark places just seemed to go hand in hand it was like an unwritten rule or something. So it was only fitting that Sir Joseph shimmered into a dark tower of the castle. He had vials filled with potions and a dark spell book used only for his evil deeds. In one corner of the tower sat a heap that upon closer inspection appeared to be a man. The man was blond headed and dressed in a suit of armor. Next to him on the floor sat his crown. The man was the missing King Arthur.

Arthur looked up his steel blue eyes locking onto Joseph's figure as he poured over his spell book. "You know that you will never get away with this. I was a fool to put my trust in you Joseph." he said calmly if only he had Excalibur he could get out of this with no problem.

"I know that this will be one of the first places that your cousins come looking for you that is why I must find a way to gain control of Excalibur before they do that." Joseph muttered absentmindedly he had more important matters to attend to than listening to a pampered king whine.

"You shall run into a little problem with that I am the only one who can pull the sword from the stone. Unless I have an heir which I don't that is the only other person who can take the sword from it's resting place." Arthur smirked he knew that he was going to hear an earful from Vincent and Daniel about this later they had warned him about trusting the dark knight.

"My good king that is where you are wrong there is another way there has to be. If you don't have an heir upon your demise the sword would choose a new owner. I am tempted to kill you just to see if that is true. But alas I need you alive for now I need something to use a leverage." Joseph said the pure evil visible in his eyes. Unlike the king's there was nothing warm about them ever you couldn't tell if he was happy or angry by looking in his cold blue eyes.

"I don't understand how you could betray me I took you in and treated you as I treat my own brother." Arthur was confused he and Wyatt mirrored each other in more than just looks.

"Why my dear stable boy I thought that answer would be plain to you power pure and simple I need no other reason. You have all the power but yet you don't use it to your advantage Camelot could be so much more under my rule than it is now. I just have to get my hands on that sword." Joseph was mixing up a potion of some sort in an attempt to fool the sword as to his identity.

Arthur rattled his chains he wasn't a violent man but right now he wished more than anything to be able to wrap his hands around the man's neck. "This is treason Joseph you shall face the gallows for this." he raged doing nothing but rubbing raw spots on his fettered writs from struggling with his chains.

Joseph grinned evilly at the chained man "That is where you are wrong my king if you live trough this you will be the one serving me."

"We shall see about that it is only a matter of time before the other knights come for you. And I assure you that Merlin will be able to undo any sorcery that you do. You would do better to stop this madness right now. If you do I shall allow you to keep your life." Arthur was merciful it was hard to believe that his future life had almost turned evil.

"Again with that insufferable fool Merlin he has not the power to stop me. The first thing I will do once I am in power is do away with that old hack." Joseph was really more interested in finding a way to separate the sword from the stone than in anything Arthur had to say. He picked up the potion he had mixed and shimmered out before the king could say anything else to annoy him.


Jake rubbed his temples as he walked into the library at magic school being the youngest member of the thirteen sucked so bad. They thought their age gave them the right to boss him around. He would have loved for his sister to show up and take up for him she only let them go so far with him but she was still in the underworld doing who alone knew what.

"Jake if you're in here who is watching the past people ?" Liz asked him looking up from the book she was reading. Bianca and Parker were the only other two that had not fallen asleep while they were looking for a way to send them back to Camelot.

"Don't worry they are fine I locked them in Uncle Leo's office. There is no way that they can get out but I'm not baby sitting them anymore. They were giving me a headache that is a hard thing to do Prue is my sister if she doesn't give me a headache no one should." Jake said sitting down in one of the stiffed backed wooden chairs at the table.

The others had all claimed the overstuffed chairs and couches that dotted the library so they could go to sleep. They had to take what they could get Chris would wake them all up when he got back and yell at them for wasting time.

"I'm too tired to even argue with you about it but you had better hope that they don't escape and start causing trouble around here." Bianca said laying her head down on the table in front of her.

Parker slammed the book that he had been reading shut it didn't tell him anything that he didn't already know which was nothing at all "I don't know about anyone else but I need coffee." he announced.

Jake ran his hands over his face "We all need a jolt of caffeine but good luck finding any drinkable coffee around here. All they have here is a black sludge that they pass off as coffee."

"I have a coffee maker in my classroom for that reason but I just don't feel like making coffee this morning." Bianca replied.

"That would be why you guys keep me around." Calleigh announced in a cheerful voice carrying a cardboard tray with coffee.

Parker went to her and took the tray from her "You have no idea how happy I am to see you right now I think I could kiss you for this."

"I'm happy to know that the only reason you like me is because I brought you coffee." Calleigh shook her head at him "Where is everyone else I brought them coffee too ?" she asked she knew that Chris, Henry, and Prue were at the manor they had told her to meet them here.

Liz gestured over to the couches and chairs "They are sleeping they have been out for about the better part of three hours. I figure that Chris will wake them up when he gets back."

Calleigh cast a look back over her shoulder "Where the hell is that boy he was right behind me ?" she asked not expecting an answer no one knew what she was talking about. "Huck stop playing around and get in here." she called out.

A young man with tan skin and a mohawk came walking in carrying a tray of coffee after Calleigh called him. He looked to be about Mel and Val's age. "Keep your panties on Cal I was coming you're the one who left me in the dust." he reminded her.

Calleigh rolled her eyes at him "you were supposed to be keeping up with me Huck."

"And if memory serves you are supposed to be keeping an eye on me you're not doing a very good job of it Cal." He shot right back at the older girl.

Bianca laughed at them "Cal I take it that this is the little brother you mentioned?"

"Yeah guys this is my little brother Huck," Calleigh said "Huck this is B, Liz, Parker, and Jake." she pointed at each person as she said their name.

"You were on the football team right ?" Huck asked Jake

"Yeah I was and I was on the baseball team too." Jake answered.

"You were my varsity buddy when I was a freshman." Huck replied he knew he recognized him from somewhere.

Jake's eyes lit up with recognition "man I totally didn't recognize you there for a second. Those were some good times." he shook his head just thinking about the things he had done in high school.

"Jake I apologize for any trouble he ever caused you it didn't start until he shaved his head like that." Calleigh said that kid was a handful and she was the one who had raised him.

"Cal who do you think gave him the mohawk ? I used to have one just like it until my mom made me shave my head for graduation.." Jake asked smirking .

"You shouldn't have admitted to that Prue isn't here to keep me from hitting you right now." Calleigh took a step towards Jake who backed up.

"Cal you have permission to hit him later but right now we have a problem." Liz said trying to get them on task.

"I know Chris told me when he called," Calleigh replied and then she pointed at Huck "you go sit over there and stay where I can see you. I have things to take care of and then I will help you."

Huck threw her a salute before he did what she told him to. "Yes ma'am." he said sarcastically.

"So where are these people from Camelot ?" Calleigh asked.

"Jake locked Lady Chipper and Sir Moron in Uncle Leo's office trust me you don't want them out here right now." Bianca assured her they were both very annoying.

"I don't think they could be that bad I've just spent the last day of my life babysitting that idiot over there no one can be worse than him." Calleigh said pointing to Huck who had his headphones in and was laying his head on the table.

"Cal the boy looks a little old to need to be babysat." Parker observed arching his eyebrow.

"You're never too old to be babysat when there is a demon after you he refused to stay in Valhalla where he would be safe. So I got stuck watching him my dad has no offensive powers." Calleigh explained.

Liz put a hand on her shoulder "Cal as soon as we send those two back we'll help you with the demon that is after him." she said she had softened considerably towards the younger woman.

"Liz you guys don't have to do that." Calleigh insisted this was her job he was her little brother.

"We don't have to we want to you're one of us and we take care of our own. Now let them fill you in while I go wake Wy up Chris will kill him." Liz smiled at her.

"Thanks Liz." Calleigh replied simply.

Everyone in the room groaned when they heard a shrill voice enter the library.

"Jake I thought you said you locked them in Leo's office ?" Parker asked when the queen and her brother entered the room.

Jake shrugged helplessly when Bianca shot him a dirty look "I did lock them in his office I don't know how they got out I didn't do this on purpose they annoy me just as much as they annoy you."

"Finally someone sensible Lady Calleigh do tell them that they need to stop with the madness and help us find a way back to Camelot." Guinevere said just a tad it too perky for any of them to be able to stand.

Calleigh looked really confused they hadn't got a chance to explain things to her yet. "I have no clue what you are talking about and even if I did there is no way I am going back to Camelot with you." Huck picked his head up off the table when he heard the change in pitch in his sister's voice. He saw the people dressed like they were from the dark ages and he grinned this was more amusing than watching tv.

"Not you as well. I can't understand it even if my fellow knights were under some kind of spell they wouldn't be without their swords. They know well as I do what will happen if evil gets it's hands on them." Gavin shook his head in resignation.

"They haven't stopped with the ranting and raving yet ?" Wyatt asked groggily Liz had pushed him off the couch he was on to wake him up.

"We had a couple of hours of peace when Jake was off baby sitting them but then he decided to lock them in your dad's office. They somehow got out." Bianca explained tempted to do horrible things to Jake.

Wyatt looked around and didn't see his brother anywhere "Those three still aren't back they left just before I went to sleep I'm starting to get worried about them."

"I knew that this would happen if we left them alone for that long I bet that they didn't find out as much as we did and we were supposed to be after a demon." Chris raved he wasn't happy to be back at magic school he had, had a trying night anyway this was just one more reminder that he had a lot to do before he could rest.

"Wait a minute what did you guys find out ?" Liz asked she was pissed she had spent all night looking in book after book. And then they had just happened upon something.

"We can't even explain it to you wait until Uncle Leo gets here he should be here any minute." Henry said it was too much of a headache for them to try to explain anything.

Liz scowled "Don't be like that Lizzie they wouldn't tell me anything about it either." Troy grinned at her. He was so out of the loop that not knowing a little more information wouldn't kill him. This was what he got for playing hooky from one of their meetings he got left out of things.

" I would like to know what swords they are talking about that worries me." Prue said knitting her eyebrows together.

"You know well what swords I am talking about Lady Prudence I'm shocked to hear you ask such a thing you know the importance of them." Gavin replied he was not at all happy with the way these people were acting this was not how they normally were.

Wyatt sensing that his cousin was going to blow her top from being called Prudence turned his attention to Huck "Who is the kid ?" he asked all they needed was one more thing to worry about.

Calleigh raised her hand sheepishly "That is my brother Huck don't worry about him right now I'm just keeping an eye on him. Right now we should focus on how the hell we get them back to their time."

"Wy wake the rest of them up I would do it but then I would be too tempted to do unpleasant things to them." Chris ordered his older brother.

"You're only making me do this because you know how hard Chuck is to wake up." Wyatt mumbled but he did as he was told.

XXXXXXXXXX

Leo gathered the thirteen in a classroom since it was the only place big enough to hold all of them plus the fact that they had locked Guinevere and Gavin in his office with Huck.

"Did the all powerful Charmed Ones explain to you what I told them earlier ?" Leo asked mocking Chris, Henry, and Prue.

"No they wouldn't tell us jack shit." Roman said crossing his arms over his chest.

"Dad start with the past lives thing please it throws things into perspective." Chris asked his father nicely that was a feat for him since the flashbacks he was having trouble even calling him dad.

"Obviously Wyatt was Arthur we know that much since Lady Perky keeps throwing herself at him." Chuck mused out loud only to get a glare from both of his best friends.

"Right and Jason was a Gavin don't ask how that happened because we haven't been able to figure that one out but it's not important." Prue said staring at her boyfriend for interrupting.

"Chuck you were Sir Griffin he was Arthur's best friend he sat at his left hand at the round table. Chris was Sir Daniel Arthur's most trusted knight and his cousin. Hank was Sir Vincent he was Daniel's older brother and also Arthur's cousin." Leo explained patiently.

"Ok that actually makes a lot of sense I mean that would explain why we are best friends now." Chuck nodded his head to himself.

"Junior you were Sir Gauge he, Sir Griffin, and Sir Gavin were brothers Lady Guinevere was their sister. Ro you were Sir Alexander and Troy was your brother Sir James they had two sisters Lady Prudence and Lady Melinda." Leo was going slowly to make sure everything he said sunk in he gave them a moment to digest what he was saying before he went on. "Calleigh you were Lady Calleigh your sister was Lilly who was Lady Lila. The two of you were the cousins of James and Alexander."

"In no world should it be right for Prue and Troy to be related the two of them share a brain anyway." Liz said looking at Leo like he had lost his mind.

Leo shook his head at her outburst "B you were Lady Bianca she was the cousin of Lady Guinevere. Parker you were Sir Matthew the king's younger brother Arthur didn't trust Matthew as much as he did Daniel and Griffin."

"Uncle Leo who was I then I mean they called me Lady Elizabeth but I don't know ?" Liz asked.

Leo bit his lip why he tried to think of the best way to explain that "They called everyone else by their names from their past lives because they recognized their souls. Lady Elizabeth was the cousin to Lady Prudence and Lady Melinda as well as James and Alexander. She was related to Guinevere as well in some odd way. I have a theory though because that is not you."

"Then who is she dad ?" Wyatt asked perplexed but that was nothing new for him he was always confused.

"I think that it is obvious Liz was Lady Guinevere," Leo answered and he saw the looks he was getting from the room. " you guys saw her too her and Liz look a lot alike. The reason for her calling her Lady Elizabeth was because her soul recognized her as her cousin. Now if it had been Lady Elizabeth to step through that portal then she would have called Liz Guinevere."

Troy rubbed his temples like he was getting a headache "This whole past lives thing is confusing as hell."

"Now you know why we waited for dad to get here and explain we would have gotten it wrong somehow." Chris replied.

"Uncle Leo as much as I hate to ask you to do this now explain the other part to them." Henry said he was going to need therapy from this they all were.

"I'll start with the easy part that way no one gets confused. Lady Prudence and Sir Griffin were married they were also first cousins." Leo went on he knew what kind of reaction he was going to get to all of this but it helped them understand.

"Ew you mean to tell me that Prue and Chuck we married and they were cousins that is kinda sick." Lilly said shaking the thoughts from her head.

"Just wait it gets much worse than this." Prue assured her.

"Sir Gavin was married to Lady Janice who was the sister of Lila and Calleigh. Those two were Carly and Jason. Does this make sense so far ?" Leo asked wanting to know if they were confused or not.

"It makes sense it's really fucked up but it makes sense." Calleigh replied and he gave her a smile he agreed with that completely.

"Sir Alexander was married to Lady Melinda his sister. That was Mel and Ro I know it sounds very wrong." Leo went on.

Roman squirmed around a little in his seat "I don't know whether to be happy or grossed out I think I'll go with a little bit of both."

Leo chuckled his daughter sure did have a hold on that boy "Sir Daniel was married to Lady Charlotte his half sister. That was Chris and Charlie. However Charlotte only married her younger brother because she couldn't be with her true love he was one of the few knights that Arthur didn't approve of."

"Chris I can't even comment on that there are so many things I could say but my words just won't come." Jake laughed. Chris only smirked at him in return.

Leo figured he would knock Jake down a peg or two "Sir Gauge was married to his cousin Lady Penelope but he had on an on going affair with Lady Lila. And yes that means what you think it means Jake and Penny were married."

Jake's face went white as a sheet "I think I just threw up in my mouth a little that is so very sick."

"It only gets better from here wait until you hear the rest." Chris replied.

"I can only hope that Lady Bianca didn't have as messed up a love life as I do." Bianca mused not knowing that it was just as bad as hers was.

Leo shook his head "I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this then. Sir Vincent had this thing for two cousins Lady Bianca and Lady Oriana but he couldn't choose between them on his own so he had Merlin help him. I remember now that he married Lady Bianca. So as Hank pointed out the both of you have always been in the middle of a love triangle."

Henry raised an eyebrow that was just like something he would do "Don't look at me like that B I didn't put him up to saying that it's only going to make Prue so much worse. Besides I have no intentions of getting married again any time soon."

"Good because I have no intentions of marrying you any time soon." Bianca replied she still needed time he understood that.

"Anyway Sir James was married to Lady Valerie they weren't related at all she was Arthur and Matthew's sister." Leo explained more this all had a point to it.

"Val and Troy huh that is interesting." Wyatt threw out there he knew about what Liz had saw in her vision that day.

"Then Sir Matthew was married to Lady Calleigh and that should about cover all the knights." Leo wrapped that part up.

Parker and Calleigh shared a look he knew that was still waiting on him to say that he was ready to give them a shot. He shrugged his shoulders helplessly.

"The thing you have to understand about Arthur and Guinevere is they had a love for the ages. They were like one in heart, mind, body, and soul. They could finish the other's sentences and they knew what the other was thinking. Their love was so strong that it pained them to be without the other. They were really and truly soul mates." Leo explained to them.

"Aw see I told you guys and then you just tell me to stop being nosey." Prue piped up and the others rolled their eyes at her.

"Uncle Leo what was the point of telling us all that ?" Roman asked it had seemed pretty pointless to him.

"Now listen very carefully to this next part it is important. All of Arthur's most trusted knights that sat at the round table were either related to him or his queen. There however was one knight that wasn't related to any of them his name was Sir Joseph. Vincent and Daniel didn't trust anyone it was just in their nature and they felt that Arthur put too much trust in Vincent. It turned out that they were right Joseph made a play for Excalibur and the throne but he was stopped by the one knight that Arthur didn't trust and he was hanged for treason." Leo wanted them to understand what they were up against.

"What was Joseph's angle ?" Calleigh asked wanting to know more.

"Joseph was a sorcerer and he wanted to rule Camelot with his dark magic. He was the illegitimate son of Merlin. Merlin was the knight's most trusted confidant. But anyway Joseph used some kind of spell to try to take over the only one not affected by was that one knight because he was a practitioner of good magic. After everything was said and done Arthur ended up giving Joseph's seat at the round table to that knight whose name for the life of me I can't remember." Leo answered.

"Uncle Leo I have a question what kind of swords did the knights have ? Lady Perky and her brother mentioned something about if those swords fell into the hands of evil something bad would happen." Prue asked she knew her Uncle Leo would know the answer to that question.

Leo looked a little uneasy at this question he knew that he would have to get Piper and her sisters to magic school so they could explain. "The swords were enchanted by Merlin to protect the knights but they were magic in their own right. But let me get your moms up here they know more about that than I do. They did all kind of reading when they found out that Wyatt was going to be the next King Arthur."

"Ok but then we really need to find a way to send them back to their own time we have to fix this mess." Chris replied he didn't like the way his dad had looked when Prue asked that question something big was going on and he would like to know what it was.


Gorgon flamed into the chamber where the knights of the round table normally met. There he found Joseph standing over Excalibur chanting he knew that the dark knight was attempting to remove it from it's granite sheath. "You do know that no one but King Arthur or his descendants can pull the sword from the stone right ?" he asked a slightly amused tone in his voice.

Joseph whirled around to face Gorgon "Who are you and how did you gain entry to this chamber ?" he demanded.

Gorgon was momentarily taken a back by how much he looked like Ben his heart swelled with pride it was good to know that his nephew had always been evil "That is not important what is important is that I am here to help you rid yourself of Arthur." he answered observing that his nephew had always had a hot head.

"Why should I place my trust in a man who has not honor enough to show me his face when he speaks to me ?" Joseph questioned hotly putting his body between the source and Excalibur just in case he was really after the sword.

Gorgon lowered his hood revealing his face to the dark knight "Because in a future life you are my nephew and I have never steered you wrong before."

Joseph narrowed his eyes "You but it can not be you are the leader of the king's archers." he said in shock and surprise.

"I realize that you may know be better as General Camden who is pure good. But I assure you that is not the case with me." Gorgon replied trying to win some favor with him.

"People usually go from evil to good as their souls progress not the other way around." Joseph observed.

"As I said that is not the case with me." Gorgon maintained Ben had certainly kept the hardheaded personality.

"Again I ask why I should trust you ?" Joseph asked again the idea of letting the strange man help seemed more appealing by each passing second.

"Simply do as I tell you and I swear to you that I will help you get rid of Arthur and the kingdom will be yours to run as you see fit." Gorgon replied not in the mood to argue with this man.

Joseph stroked his chin as if in deep thought before he spoke "Go on you have my attention now."
