Disclaimer: Yea, I don't own Charmed. Still.
Note: Okay, so I think everyone agreed that I should tell a little about Kyra's past, so I decided to do a flashback because I think that'd be the best way to explain everything. Thanks for all the good ideas, I'll definitely use some of them. As long as I keep getting reviews I'll keep writing, so keep it up. (
Chapter Summary: A flashback to the affair between Kyra's mother and father and the argument with Grams that tore the family apart.
*Chapter 3: Love means Betrayal*
"I forbid you to ever see him again!" Penny yelled at her daughter, Payton. "You can't forbid me to do anything," Payton responded quietly with ice cold anger. "He is no good for you! Your place is here, with me," Penny persisted, trying to regain the daughter she already knew she'd lost. "Not anymore." Penny watched with a broken heart as Payton walked out the door and out of her life forever. That is what love does to people, she thought sadly. Love is betrayal. That fight was only the last of many concerning Seth, Payton's warlock lover. Penny had been hunting down Seth after hearing of a number of mysterious deaths, innocents found dead in deserted alleyways, brutally murdered. But Payton had gotten there first and it had been love at first sight. Payton was too young to be in love, Penny had insisted time and time again, she was only 18, barely out of high school. Payton had been destined to bigger and better things than being with Seth; she was a witch of extraordinary powers. She could change the weather at will, if she was angry there would often be a thunderstorm, if she was sad there would be rain. Invisibility was also another of her powers, one inherited from her father, the father she had never known. But she was ready to throw away her future, just to spend one moment with Seth. His green eyes had enchanted her from the first, the same green eyes that his daughter was to have. And Seth loved Payton, it was a love of passionate intensity but also one of devastation. Seth could never suppress his dark side without relinquishing the powers he loved so much and Payton would never give in to the temptation of joining evil. It was a stormy affair, but one that kept them both coming back to each other. When Kyra was born, they were brought closer together by the bond of common love for the baby girl. Then one day Seth and Payton fought for the last time, he left for good and a week later Payton found out that he had been killed. Kyra was only 4, a pretty little girl that had the shiny gold hair of her mother and the brilliant green eyes of her father, as well as the good and evil of both. *End of Flashback*
"So where's your mother now?" Paige asked Kyra as they ate lunch together at a tiny café.
"She's dead," Kyra told her, struggling not to let tears fall from her brimming eyes. Her mother's death was too recent for her to think about it without feeling that devastating emptiness. "I'm sorry," Paige said sympathetically. She knew what it was like to lose parents; it was a horrible feeling, one that would never truly go away. The sky was starting to get a little cloudy, she hoped it wasn't going to rain.
"Oh, sorry," Kyra said as Paige expressed her worry that it would rain. At the look of confusion on Paige's face she explained. "One of my powers, it was one of my mother's as well. I can influence the weather, but I haven't quite learned how to control my powers yet, so when I get emotional the weather changes." "Wow." Paige was impressed. There was a lot more to this girl than anyone knew, she thought. She smiled comfortingly. "When I first got my powers I had no idea what I was doing," she laughed. She soon had Kyra laughing too and the weather became sunny again. Paige was good at masking her worry though, if the girl had powers like this, what else was she capable of? And was she good or evil?
