Charmed At Last
Chapter 2: The Mighty Must Fall
Piper's eyes became wide and she couldn't believe what her youngest sister was saying. Paige can't be pregnant! She is the youngest sister, she is not married, and she never even wanted a baby! No, this has to be a dream! Piper mentally screamed. Piper locked eyes with Paige and Piper could see the evident guilt in her youngest sister's chocolate brown eyes. "Are you sure?" Piper asked, trying to hide the emotional pain that was building inside her.
Salty tears began to slide down Paige's pale face, like melting wax from a candle. "I'm like almost positive, Piper....I took a home pregnancy test like four times. They all came out positive." Paige answered, her voice was low and full of shame. "I didn't mean to, really I didn't. I know how much you wanted...want to have a baby." Paige said, she was sobbing now.
Piper reached out and embraced her baby sister. "It'll be okay, no biggie. We'll scedule a doctor's appointment later and if it's true, then it'll be just fine." Piper whispered. Piper could feel tears trying to form in her eyes and as she hugged Paige, she quickly wiped the tears away.
----
Phoebe jumped up at the sound of a loud cracking noise. Phoebe must've fallen asleep while she was wishing Cole was there. Phoebe pulled a pale green tissue from her purse and wiped her eyes and then exited the mausoleum. Phoebe walked towards the gates of the cemetary and then stopped, turned left, and walked up to a patch of 3 different colors of roses: yellow, pink, and red. Phoebe stared at the headstones for a moment. "Grams, mom, Prue....Now Cole...Why does everyone that I love have to be taken or kept from me?" Phoebe questioned outloud. Phoebe looked towards the sky. "Why?! Why do you have to take everything and everyone that I love?!" Phoebe screamed towards the baby blue sky.
----
Piper parked her car in the driveway and then got out of her car. She looked behind her to see Paige walking up the driveway. Piper walked over to Paige and placed her arm around her little sister. "Do you think we should tell Phoebe? Or wait until I know for sure?" Paige asked. "We...we should probably wait...." Piper said. Piper hoped it wasn't true, she wanted to be the one to tell her family that she was pregnant, not Paige.
Paige opened the door and then walked inside, followed by Piper who shut the door behind her. "I...I...Demon in three...two..one!" Paige yelled. Paige's whitelighter-witch abilities had combined to give her the power to sense the presence of evil. As Paige yelled, one, a demon shimmered in. The demon instantly threw a massive fire ball at Paige. Paige raised her hand to call for the fire ball when a glowing ball of white light appeared in her hands. "What the...." Paige's voice trailed off.
Piper raised her hands and froze the fire ball inches from Paige's stomach. "Whatever that is, throw it!" Piper yelled.
Paige tossed the white ball of light at the demon. As the white ball of light hit the demon, he exploded into millions of little pieces. The vanquish was very similar to Piper's exploding power but instead the ball of light was used. "What the hell was that?" Paige asked, clearly shocked. Paige looked down at her hand.
"It was like my exploding power but it looked like the harmless light balls Leo made on our wedding day." Piper said.
Paige began to feel a sickness in her stomach and then a liquid rise into her throat. Paige covered her mouth and instantly orbed out.
----
There was a swirl of blue and white orbs as Paige appeared in the bathroom and shoved open the toilet seat and vomited. Paige winced and after about 3 minutes she had stopped throwing up. Paige hit the handle on the toilet and then shut the lid. Paige grabbed a purple cup on the counter and filled it with cold tap water. She took a drink of the water and then spit it out to rinse out the taste of vomit in her mouth. Paige poured the rest of the water down the sink and then she heard Piper's voice.
----
"Paige? Are you okay?" Piper asked, from the other side of the bathroom door.
----
"Yeah...just needed to puke." Paige replied.
----
"I think I figured out what that light ball was." Piper said.
----
"Hmm?" Paige mumbled. She opened the door and walked out.
"I'm sure you're pregnant Paige. That was probably just the baby's power. Since you're half whitelighter the white light balls would make sense and then our powers are in our bloodline so maybe you're baby has a different form of my molecule acceleration power? Like you had a different form of Prue's telekinesis?" Piper offered.
Paige sighed heavily. "How sure are you?" Paige asked.
Piper glanced away. "As sure as I'll ever be...." Piper said, in a low tone.
"Then do we t...." Paige began but was cut off by Piper.
"Yes.." Piper answered.
"Do you know where Phoebe is?" Paige asked.
----
Suddenly there was a slam of the front door closing. "Did someone say my name?" Phoebe called through the house, as she walked up the stairs.
"Yeah we did, big ears." Paige teased.
Phoebe gave off a small smile. "So, whatcha girls talkin' 'bout?" Phoebe asked.
"Pheebs, I think you should sit down for this one." Piper said, then she eyed Paige.
Phoebe's eyes became wide. "Piper! You're not?" Phoebe asked.
Piper shook her head and looked the other way.
"No, I am...." Paige said, in a small voice. Phoebe sat in silence for a moment and then began to laugh hysterically. "Wow, you almost had me fooled for a moment." Phoebe said through giggles.
Suddenly a warlock blinked in behind Phoebe.
"Phoebe, look out!" Paige screamed. the glowing ball of white light appeared in Paige's hands and she hurled it at the warlock. As the ball of white light hit the warlock he exploded.
Phoebe's mouth dropped open in shock.
"Now do you believe me?" Paige asked.
Phoebe nodded and then looked at Piper. Phoebe gave Piper a sympathetic look and Piper just shook her head. "I...umm...don't know what to say....But congratulations Paige!" Phoebe said. Phoebe ran to her baby sister and hugged her and then gently poked at Paige's belly. "Thanks for vanquishing that bad warlock for me." Phoebe said in a child-like tone. Phoebe took a step back and then looked at Paige. "Glenn?" Phoebe asked.
Paige nodded, sadly. "Have you...." Phoebe started to ask but Paige cut her off.
"No, I will, but in person. It's only fair." Paige answered.
Suddenly the entire house shook and the 3 sisters fall to the floor then 5 demons shimmered in around them, trapping them in the center.
The largest demon who had black skin and light blue tribal markings waved his hand and telekinetically sent Piper smacking into Paige.
Piper raised her hands and sent an exploding blast of energy at the demon but then another demon stepped in the way and raised his hand then the demons remained uneffected and Piper went blasting over the stair rail. There was a loud crash.
"Piper!" Phoebe screamed in terror and then levitated off the ground. Phoebe kicked out her legs and went into a levitating spin, kicking 2 of the demons and sent them flying into the wall.
The first demon waved his arm and sent spinning Phoebe smacking into a door.
Paige held out her hands. "Demon!" Paige commanded. The demon was instantly enveloped in orbs and then disappeared. Moments later a swarm of blue and white orbs appeared and then the demon materialized and crashed into the wall. Piper! Paige thought and then Paige orbed out.
----
Paige orbed in next to Piper who was unconscious and bleeding from her head, on the floor. "No!" Paige screamed. Suddenly Paige heard a noise behind her and noticed 2 demons had shimmered in. The glowing white ball of light appeared in Paige's hand, she aimed, and threw it at the demons. The second demon held out his hand and then the glowing white light ball bounced back and smacked into Paige's stomach, sending her crashing threw a stained glass window, landing unconscious on the pavement.
----
Phoebe weakly stood up from the ground and ran into a levitating kick. As her foot connected with the demon's stomach she felt a surge of energy pulse through her body and was instantly sucked into a premonition!
----Premonition----
A woman with dark hair waved her arm and two demons smashed into the wall. Then she flicked her wrist and sent an athame that had been laying on a coffee table, into a demon, and he burst into flames. Then a demon shimmered in front of the woman and waved his arm, sending a fire blast at her. The woman squinted her eyes and sent the fire blast flying back into the demon and he turned into a pile of ashes. The remaining 3 demons shimmered out.
----Premonition----
Phoebe felt her body hitting each step of the stairs with full force as she tumbled down each step. Her body ached when she finally hit the solid ground with a huge smack. Phoebe's vision was blurred, which kept her from seeing her attackers. Through what seemed like bubbles of color, a tall form appeared. The form had long dark bubbles of color. Slowly Phoebe's vision became slightly clearer and she could make out the form of a woman with long, dark hair.

As Phoebe's vision fully cleared she gasped at the sight she saw! "Prue...." Phoebe muttered, then she slipped into a world of pure darkness.
