First a thank you to my reviewers for the previous chapter:

piperspeanut – It had to come up. It just had to. I loved that line in "Spin City" and I thought it very appropriate here. Well, there is this one more "chapter", though technically it's the epilogue. I will be posting the prologue for the next episode at the same time though. Once you are done with this, be sure to check out "The Demon of Confusion".

Cirolane – Yeah, I knew you were going to be disappointed there. When I originally planned the episode I didn't know if they were going to stick around, but ultimately over the course of the last year that it's been in planning, I decided to end it this way. Wyatt's going to have to wait on the DVD, but I so wish I could actually give it to him. Maybe some time I'll write one of those stories where the Charmed Ones and their families find out there is a TV show about them and Wyatt can get his hands on a DVD set of season six. Yeah, I like that idea. It would be fun. Glad you like Chris statement. That is my favorite statement in the chapter, followed closely by Wyatt's about the DVD.

du1387 – Once they figured out a way to keep her family, there was no way Prue would decide otherwise. Hank will ask Wyatt to heal him, after a nap and once he can get Wyatt alone. As to Melinda, well, I sort of describe some of that below, but it will be a long trip. For next several episodes she won't even be in San Francisco or California for that matter.

Second, a thank you to all my reviewers:

Fifthly, a thank you to all the people I can't name, because I don't know which people who have me in their favorite authors or author alerts are reading this series, but thank you all the same. I can be pretty sure that the following fall under one of the two catagories though, Cirolane, TaintedDarkInuShekeeko and du1387.

The epilogue takes place a few days after the rest of the story. Prue, Andy, and their kids are currently living in the manor while their look for a place in Boston as they planned. Vicki is annoyed that they are back to the don't answer the door rules, though it only counts if Prue or Andy are in view, just in case someone sees them before they are ready to explain. Pat has made it her mission while they are there to see if she can find demons that were fought in her reality that aren't in this reality's Book of Shadows. She's making a list. If you've read my story "Imaginary Fiends (and Real Friends)" you've run into one of the demons on her list. It's the one she sent the boys after. Melinda said her good-byes and has taken off. It is her plan to find a place to stay for a while until she is ready to deal with everything. Piper made sure she had some food for the first couple of days and a cell phone, so that they don't lose track of her.

Wyatt and Chris contacted their friend, Kali Nicolae to see if she could get them in contact with Mark and Beth Trudeau, the brother and sister they met in "A Friend In Need". After hearing the situation, Kali set up a meeting with Mark, Beth, and their parents so that they could find out about Andy being alive, again. She did not tell them what was going on. Who knows why they think she invited their whole family over. She is still dating Gary Johnson, so they know it isn't anything to do with Mark.

Now, that I have set the table, I hope you enjoy the epilogue.

Epilogue – Another Reunion

Thursday, February 18, 2027

Thursday, later that week, Chris led Andy down the hallway of an apartment complex toward the apartment where Chris and Wyatt's friend, Kali Nicolae lived. The hallway outside the apartment seemed almost confining as Andy walked behind Chris. It wasn't hard to imagine his little brother with kids, but with half witch kids was another matter entirely. He knew that in his old reality his brother had married and had at least one child, but the entire family was killed in a car accident not long after Andy had been reunited with Prue. As a result Andy knew very little about his brother's family, so not even if this was the same family.

Chris stopped at the door to the apartment and knocked. He turned and looked at Andy. "Are you ready for this?"

Andy offered him a nervous smile. "Are you sure they are there?"

Chris nodded. "Kali invited the family over. She thought neutral ground would be best."

The knob turned catching both of their attentions. Kali stuck her head out and smiled. "Hi, you must be Wyatt and Chris' new uncle. I'm Kali."

Andy smiled. "Andy."

"So how are we doing this?" Kali asked slipping out the door, closing the door behind her. "Should I just announce him, or let them see for themselves or what?"

"Kali," Chris looked at her with annoyance.

"What?" Kali indicated the door with her chin. "There's only so much preparing one can do before you just have to plunge in. I told them that my friend, Chris, was joining us for dinner. I also told them that recently some odd events had given you some new relatives. I indicated that you had something to tell them and I warned them that I had some news for them that would shock them, but I can't think of any other way to go about this, then to just do it."

Chris sighed. "Give me a few minutes with them." He looked at Kali. "Take him somewhere out of sight of the kitchen." Looking at Andy he added, "If that's all right with you."

Andy nodded. "This is rather nerve wrecking."

Chris entered the apartment and headed into the small kitchen / dining room. The four Trudeaus were seated at four of the six seats. Mikelle Zealand stood in a corner watching him enter. Chris looked at her surprised. "Mikelle, what are you doing here?"

"What? I'm not allowed to eat with them?"

Chris shook his head quickly. "That's not what I meant. I just didn't expect you."

Mikelle shrugged. "I was apprised of the situation and asked to come."

Chris nodded and turned to the family. "Hi."

Beth smiled at him. "Hi, Chris."

Mark, Ben, and Alice added their greetings.

Not sure where to start Chris breathed in. "I was wondering what you know about whitelighters, full ones anyway, how they become one."

"Something about being really good or something," Mark said a little unsure. "I really haven't thought much about it."

"I have," Ben informed them.

"Okay, so what's your take on it?"

"Whitelighters were once people who in life helped others. When they die they are given the chance to keep helping others. The thing is when I learned about whitelighters I wondered about my older brother."

Chris looked at him surprised. Maybe this would be easier than he thought.

"He was a police officer and he wanted to help people, to do good. He dated your aunt, you know."

Chris nodded. "I did know that."

"He died in the manor. Do you know anything of what happened?"

"Only a little. Mom and her sisters were under attack. Aunt Phoebe had a premonition of your brother dying, so they tried to keep him out of the house, but in the end he died saving their lives."

Ben nodded. "Sounds like Andy. Other's first. Is there anyway to find out if he became a whitelighter? Alice has tried summoning him, but she has never been successful."

Chris gulped. "Actually that's kind of why I am here."

Ben frowned. "Because of Andy?"

Chris nodded. "I was told two stories. They began the same. After your brother died, he did become a whitelighter. He was told not to contact anyone he used to know."

Ben sighed. "I guess I can lay it to rest then."

"It doesn't end there."

When Chris didn't say anything more Ben rose to his feet. "Please go on."

Chris nodded. "About eighteen years ago one of his charges was under attack and he tried to help her. She survived, but he was shot with a darklighter's arrow."

Ben sucked in a deep breath. "Then, my brother is gone." He sat back down in his chair, stunned, as if this news was not something he was prepared for despite all the years gone by.

"He was."

Ben frowned and looked up at Chris. "Was?"

Chris nodded. "Late last week my brother and I were preparing for a special event with our parents. Just before we left a triquetra opened on our wall and five people were dumped out. They had just suffered the loss of two people very important to them and were attempting to travel back in time to fix it. Unfortunately for them, they failed in that attempt and literally changed worlds. They were from an alternate reality created by my mother and two of my aunts shortly after the death of your brother."

"What has this to do with Andy?"

"One of those five was your brother, Andy."

Ben's mouth opened and closed several times before staying closed. "Andy is alive then?"

"Since Aunt Prue had a counterpart in this reality, ghost though that was, she was able to merge with her counterpart, gaining the memories from her. I sympathize having gone through the experience myself. We had a bit more trouble keeping the other four, but in the end we were able to save them."

"Andy and Prue. Who are the other three?"

Chris grinned. "Well, I seem to have gained two cousins and an older sister."

"Two cousins? Andy and Prue's?"

Chris nodded. "Pat and Vicki."

"Can I see them? I'm going to guess that it isn't forbidden if you are telling me."

Chris nodded again. "Your brother is with Kali in another room."

Ben was out of his chair in seconds and to the door only a moment later. Chris followed him out of the room and around the house until he found the den where Kali and Andy were talking. Both looked up at the sound of someone coming. Andy was to his feet quickly looking at his brother tentatively. Ben stared at him for several seconds and then he ran over to him and hugged him. "Don't ever do that, again, Andy." Ben told him as if they hadn't seen each other in days instead of decades and as if some minor misadventure had separated them instead of Andy's death. "Don't ever do that, again."

END of EPISODE

This story may be over, but there is more stories to come. Check out the next episode, "The Demon of Confusion" right here on fanfiction. A demon messes with Piper, Leo, Wyatt, and Chris by changing around their bodies and their powers. That's right, Leo has powers, for this episode anyway.
