Chapter 14: Unbreakable.

Everyone else was back at the manor now chatting about how glad they were it was all over. Kaila couldn't get rid of the faint niggle at the back of her head that something was wrong.

"You're worried about Chris aren't you?" said Jacie walking up behind her.

"I hate empaths," said Kaila.

"I'm your best friend Kai. I can always tell when something is bothering you. Without using my empath power."

"Yeah I know. I just wish I knew what it was that's bothering me," she said as Wyatt walked over.

"You're not worried that Chris will go back to her are you?" he asked.

"He would never do that honey. He loves you too much," said Piper coming over.

"I know that and I don't think it's that what worries me," she said and then clutched her stomach.

"Chris," she groaned and they all raced over.

"What's the matter Kai?" asked Jacie wrapping her arm around her.

"Chris is in trouble. We have to go to Bianca's," she said and Wyatt placed his hand on her shoulder and orbed them all out.


They reappeared inside Bianca's apartment. She wasn't surprised to see them there.

"You're just in time to watch him die," she said.

"I don't think so," said Kaila and she threw Bianca across the room. Wyatt and Jacie ran to Chris.

Bianca suddenly appeared behind Kaila and held an athame to her neck.

"Step away from him or she dies," said Bianca. Wyatt and Jacie looked up at her angrily.

"Don't stop Wyatt," called Kaila.

Wyatt kept his hand over Chris. Bianca got angry and was about to slash her throat when Kaila jammed her heel hard into Bianca's foot. She yelped and momentarily loosened her grip. Kaila took the chance and threw Bianca against the wall once more. This time she didn't get up so quickly.

"Argh," groaned Chris as he woke up.

"You ok bro?" asked Wyatt as he pulled Chris up.

"What the hell happened?" asked Chris. He then spotted Kaila throw Bianca back at the wall.

"Bianca tried to kill you and Kaila is now about to kill her," replied Wyatt.

Suddenly a demon shimmered in out of nowhere and grabbed Bianca.

"You failed and now you will pay," he said and they shimmered away.

"Dammit," cursed Kaila. Chris walked up to her and wrapped his arms around her. She grinned and kissed him.

"How did you guys know I was in trouble?" he asked turning to Jacie and Wyatt.

"Kaila knew you were hurt," replied Jacie.

"You did?"

"Yeah must be that being destined thing," she replied smiling.

"Let's get out of here," he said and the four orbed away back to the manor.


The others were all in the kitchen when they orbed back in.

"Is everything ok?" asked Piper. She could see that both the girls looked tired and a little worried.

"Yeah fine mom. Bianca has gone," explained Chris.

"I see," was all Piper said as she turned back to the stove.

"We're off now guys catch you later," said Phoebe, she, and Coop left. Paige soon followed.

Wyatt was worried about his girlfriend. She had a strange look on her face and it scared him a little. Kaila had also noticed the look and knew it was time for a sister-to-sister chat.

"Jace why don't we head back to ours and get changed. I have mud all over mine and it is really uncomfortable," said Kaila.

"Yeah sure," replied Jacie distractedly.

"Come back here after and I will cook you all some dinner," said Piper smiling at them.

"We would love too thanks Piper," said Kaila smiling.

"See you two in a bit," she said before giving Chris a quick kiss. Jacie orbed them away before Wyatt could kiss her. He was hurt by her cold manner and wondered what he had done to upset her. Chris walked up to his older brother and touched him on the shoulder.

"It will be ok bro. It's just been a rough couple of weeks," he said and Wyatt gave him a weak smile.


"What's up Jace?" yelled Kaila, as she got dressed.

"Nothing," she replied.

"What's up?" repeated Kaila. She had known Jace long enough to know when something was bothering her best friend.

"Nothing is up. Now drop it," said Jacie angrily.

"Fine. I will let Wyatt get it out of you later then."

"No don't. I'm just having second thoughts about things," she finally admitted as Kaila walked back into the room.

"You mean about you and Wyatt?" she asked sitting down beside her.

"Yes. I keep thinking about all the things that have happened lately and wonder if maybe this isn't such a good idea."

"Jace. Are you saying you don't want to be with Wy anymore?"

"No, well maybe. I don't know. I kind of feel like he would be better off without me."

"How can you say that? The guy is crazy about you. He would be devastated if you left him," said Kaila watching as Jacie stood up and paced the room.

"I know but I'm a liability to him," she said stopping her pacing for a second.

"How. It's not as if you are defenceless Jace. You kick demon butt better then most."

"I know but look at this way. What is the best way to really get at someone?"

"By hurting the person they care about most in the world," said Kaila finally catching on to Jacie's train of thought.

"Exactly. Now I'm not saying that I'm that person to Wyatt but if we carry on I could be."

"You are that person Jace. It's obvious he loves you. Hell he has loved you since he first met you," she interrupted.

"Maybe. I just don't want to be a constant target for demons out to get him."

"You won't be. Most demons wouldn't be that stupid and the ones that are well Wyatt could soon take them down."

"I guess," she replied very unconvincingly.

"You just have to ask yourself one question Jace. Is he worth the demons?"

"I'm not sure," she admitted honestly.

"Well we need to head back. Are you ready to go?" asked Kaila standing up.

"Sure maybe being around him will help," she said and they orbed away.


Kaila and Jacie reappeared back at the manor just as Piper was dishing up. Jacie sat down beside Wyatt and gave him a smile. It didn't quite reach her eyes though and Wyatt noticed this but didn't say anything.

They all enjoyed the meal and the conversation stayed on lighter topics.

Chris could tell that his older brother was still worried about Jacie and he had noticed the distance between them all through dinner. He wondered if there was something, he could do to help. He got his chance later when he managed to get Wyatt and Jacie alone in the attic so they could talk. He and Kaila hovered nearby not listening.

"What's going on Jace? You have been off with me all evening," he asked as she paced up and down the room.

"I'm sorry Wy. I have just had a lot on my mind recently," she replied sitting down on the couch. Wyatt stayed standing where he was.

"Are we ok?" he asked sensing there was more to this then she was letting on.

"To be honest Wy. I'm not sure," she said looking down at the floor.

"What are you saying Jacie. You don't want to be with me anymore?" he asked walking over to him.

"No, uh I uh um. I don't know," she stuttered moving away from him and over to the other side of the room. Wyatt stood unable to speak or move.

Suddenly five demons shimmered in. Chris and Kaila raced in and the four witches began vanquishing the demons. Every time one died another appeared. No one noticed the Dark Lighter orb in. It was the one that had attacked Jacie not long after she had met the guys.

Jacie suddenly sensed his presence but by the time, she had turned round the dark lighter had shot Wyatt with an arrow.

"Wyatt," she yelled before blowing the dark lighter up. She ran over to him but was thrown back by a demon hitting her head hard against the wall. She was stunned for a second but soon recovered.

Piper came running in with Paige and Phoebe. She had heard the shouts and managed to call her sisters. They helped the others vanquish the demons so Jacie could heal Wyatt. She dropped to his side as Wyatt managed to yank the arrow out. She then began to heal him.

The others finally got the upper hand and were winning the fight. The last demon was vanquished and Jacie had healed Wyatt.

Jacie helped Wyatt stand up and he was promptly grabbed by his family and hugged. Jacie stood watching him smiling. She now knew the answer to Kaila's question.

She moved closer to Wyatt and wrapped her arms around him. He was a little surprised by the move but didn't push her away. After seeing him nearly die she knew she couldn't live without him.

"I'm sorry about earlier Wy. I didn't mean it," she said gazing up into his gorgeous blue eyes.

"Do you still want to be with me?" he asked gazing back into her eyes.

"Yes I do Wy," she replied but he still wasn't totally sure and she could see that so she came up with a better idea. She orbed them away to her apartment.

"What are we doing here?" he asked.

"I want to prove to you how much you mean to me," she said and kissed him pushing him onto the bed at the same time. The kiss lasted a long time but eventually they broke apart.

"Well I think you have proved it," he replied grinning. She grinned back.

"As much as I would love to continue with what we are doing. I think we had better get back to the others before they come looking for us," he said watching as she stretched seductively on his bed.

"Are you sure?" she asked.

"No but I think we have to. Mom is calling me," he said pulling her up off the bed.

"Ok let's go then," she said and they orbed back to the manor.


"There you are," said Piper as they orbed in together.

"Yeah sorry mom we just had to talk things through," said Wyatt smiling down at his beautiful girlfriend.

"Is everything sorted now?" asked Kaila as she and Chris walked over together.

"It sure is," replied Jacie as she kissed him lightly.

"All except for one thing," said Wyatt.

"What's that then?" asked Jacie.

"I love you," he said and kissed her. Jacie was shocked by what he said and didn't react to the kiss. He pulled away to see Chris and Kaila smirking in the background.

"Jace are you ok?" he asked. She suddenly snapped out of it and looked at him. Her face breaking into a smile.

"I love you too Wy," she said and they kissed once more. The others gave a little cheer.

"Told you they were perfect for each other," said Chris smugly.

"Sure you did," said Kaila and she kissed him.

Piper and Leo watched from the hall and were happy see them so happy.

"Looks like we may be gaining a couple of daughter in laws before long," commented Leo.

"I think you could be right. Let's hope they are luckier then we were," replied Piper.

"I'm sure they will be," said Leo as they walked off not knowing just how wrong he was.
