"Why wont you let me heal her?" Leo asked, his voice full of anger, standing and facing the elders.
"Leo! Be silent! We have already explained this to you. Her illness is not demon related, so you cannot be permitted to heal her." One of the elders replied.
"I don't think you understand" Leo said, trying to keep calm "Piper has encephalitis. She has seizures… well she hasn't had one for a while but…you must know that she deserves to be healed!"
"That's still no reason for us to heal her" Another of the elders cut in.
"Just hear me out!" Leo almost yelled "She also has a speaking problem, some of her words come out the wrong way and sentences get a bit mixed up" One of the elders opened his mouth to speak, but Leo held up his hand, silencing him. "She has reverted to a childlike state, and she forgets things… big things! Like exactly where she lives, how to do up her shoelaces, where the bathroom is…" Leo trailed off, looking for any reaction on the part of the elders. "She cant function as a charmed one" He finished up, a grim look on his face.
The elders turned away from Leo, and began to talk quietly. After what seemed like an eternity, the elders turned back to Leo, and the despairing white-lighter searched their faces for any idea of what they might say. He found nothing, only passive expressions on unearthly faces.
"Leo, we have come to the conclusion that you can heal Piper" Leo started backward, shocked at this unexpected verdict, and looked questioningly at the elders before breathing an immense sigh of relief.
"But" Yet another elder cut in, before Leo had a chance to speak, "This is only because of the extreme circumstances that you brought to our attention. This will never happen again…under any circumstances, apart from demon-related injury, will Piper be cured a second time. Do we make ourselves clear?" Leo nodded vigorously in agreement, before orbing out.

Prue was carrying Kit to the front door when she spotted the familiar blue lights that usually accompanied Leo's orbing entrance to the Halliwell household.
"Hi Leo" She said once the whitelighter had fully materialised.
"Hi Prue, how's Piper" He asked, concern evident in his voice
"Um she's ok I guess…for…you know. She's just been chasing Kit. I don't think she remembers what happened yesterday." She responded, as she placed Kit outside. "You want to see her?" Prue asked.
Leo just nodded in response.
"Okay then" Prue said, walking into the family room, Leo following close behind her.
Piper is sitting with Phoebe on the couch, talking. Piper quickly spotted Leo, who was following closely behind "Leo!" She said happily, a big smile forming on her face.
"Hey Piper." Leo said warmly, coming around the front of the sofa, and bending down in front of Piper, placing his hands on her temples.
"What you doin?" Piper asked, a confused look on her face
"Making you well again" Leo responded, a look of concentration on his face
"But I am we…" Piper trailed off as Leo's hands started to glow. Prue and Phoebe just watch, open-mouthed.
Once Leo's hands stop glowing Piper blinks rapidly, a frown forming on her face. She opens her mouth to say something, but before she can her Prue and Phoebe dive onto Piper, pulling her into a group hug, both of them laughing, happy to have their sister back again.
Sorry it took so long :(:( Please tell me what u think :)
