Chapter Three:

Standing silently on a cliff Carina didn't glance behind her when Terous shimmered in. "Carina, come home. You can't keep hiding forever. Davis and Tamious are worried about you."
"So? They should go back to the underworld. I'm not coming back home anytime soon. Especially not to see Chris."
"I thought you were in love with him. What happened to make you afraid to see Chris again?"
"The look he had on his face after I killed Marquis." Carina answered shortly.
Terous winced at the coldness in Carina's voice. "It changed as soon as you ran. He wanted to go after you but Tamious told him to give you time."
Carina laughed harshly. "Yeah right." She muttered remembering the battle and her worst nightmare since her mother died in front of her by a demon that Tamious killed right after Niteskyes death.

Flashback, Two months ago 
Marquis was the first to attack. Instead of going toward any of the males or Carina he ran toward Piper. Getting in between them, Carina used her TK against him. Marquis dodged the attack then threw one of his own. Carina deflected it to another demon that was near Piper, Phoebe, and Paige. Terous killed one as Chris orbed away with his mother. Phoebe and Paige followed to safety where they watched the battle.
Lifting her hand Carina silently called a sword into it. Marquis called his own sword before swinging it at the brown haired woman who deflected it. Steel crashed against steel as they fought. Tamious, Terous, and Davis quickly disposed of the demons that came with Marquis. The ones not taken care of by them were killed by other demons.
Though she wasn't a demon Carina was taken to be one. Since she was related to three Upper Level demons she was left alone whenever she came down to the underworld. Because of her ability to get anyone to her side if she smiled Carina had a large group of demon followers. Followers who do anything including killing their own kind for her.
The crowd watched silently as Carina and Marquis fought along the circle the demons had made. Whenever Marquis got to close to the Halliwells Carina attacked harder pulling him away from them. Finally Marquis made what he thought would be the last blow. He was wrong.
Yanking the sword out of her side Carina brought it down against her knee and broke it in half. Standing she pushed her own sword into Marquis' black heart and yanked it out. Marquis stared at her in surprise before he died.
Lifting her head the first face she saw was Chris'. Seeing the look the fearful look on his face Carina turned and ran. She never saw it change to helplessness as Chris took a step toward her, hand out stretched.

She ran and ran until she was hurting from pain. She hid in a hardly ever used cave for three days to heal and until she couldn't hear Chris' calls anymore. After Carina was certain he was gone for good she called Terous and asked him to shimmer her to the island Tamious owned. He did as she asked and left her alone, only appearing with news and trying to get Carina to come back to San Francisco. Carina refused each time and Terous was running out of options to get her home. End Flashback 

Terous sighed and tried once again to get Carina to come home with him. Refusing once more to leave Carina turned and headed toward the villa on the island. Terous waited until she left before shimmering out. Carina glanced behind her before she kept going. She never noticed that Chris and Davis appeared out of thin air before following Terous to San Francisco. The Halliwell Manor was brimming with activity when Chris and Davis orbed/shimmered in. Tamious glanced up from where he was going through one of the photo albums. "Hey, you guys are just in time. Go pack Chris; Terous said he'd thought it be a good idea for all of us to go to Carina if she won't come here. That way she has no place to run when you confront her." "I want to do it but I'm afraid she'll still run. You know she thinks I hate her." Chris dropped onto the sofa. "Well she won't this time. I'll do a spell to temporarily keep us all on the island. Carina won't be able to get off until she talks to you. Now, I suggest you hurry and go pack some clothes. I want to leave here in a hour." Tamious ordered. Chris orbed out and up to the bedroom the girls and Leo had given him. He found Piper in there packing a small bag for him. "Hey mom. You didn't need to do this." Chris spoke. "I wanted to. Besides Leo's, Wyatt's, and my bags are already done. Did you see Carina?" Piper closed the duffle and turned to her youngest son. Chris nodded and sat down heavily on his bed. Piper saw his expression and sat down beside him. Pulling him gently to her body Piper wrapped her arms around Chris. "I'm sorry honey. But she'll turn around. I promise." "I know that. It's just that ever since Bianca's death I haven't been into any girls. And then Carina shows up and I find myself falling fast for her. Faster then I did with Bianca. Plus, I have no clue why I'm like this. I want her to be safe and with me. Only me." Chris admitted. Piper nodded in understanding and mother and son sat in silence for a few minutes. Leo orbed into the room holding Wyatt and smiled gently at his ex- wife and son. "We're ready." "Come on mom. I want you, Wyatt, Aunt Paige, Aunt Phoebe and dad to see the island. It's gorgeous." Chris grinned. "I'm sure it is." Piper replied before allowing Chris to orb himself and her down to the living room as Leo followed with the bag and Wyatt still in his arms. Downstairs they all gathered together. Once Tamious was sure everyone was ready he and Davis took the bags and shimmered to the island. Terous told the rest of the group to grab hands before he shimmered them all after Tamious and Davis. The house was left silent and alone, a protective spell around it so no demon could get in to destroy it while the Halliwells were away. The group got to the island and the ones who were had never been there before felt their mouths drop at the site. The sun was shining directly on the island giving it this golden glow. A huge villa was sitting on top of the only high hill on the island. It was a silver color with black outlining some of it, like the windows and doors. The whole island was either covered in perfect green grass or covered in sand. Walking up closer to the villa Piper was the first to notice Carina. The young woman on her knees in front of a bunch of flowers while a young demon woman stood waiting patiently behind her. Noticing the group the demon woman stepped in front of her mistress. "Why are the charmed ones here?" she demanded at Tamious. Carina got to her feet and paled when she saw who the demon was talking to. "I'm out of here." She announced, turning and walking quickly away. "Carina, wait. They're here at my invitation. Nothing more." Tamious quickly spoke. Chris, his mother, father, and aunts exchanged surprised looks but didn't correct their demon friend. Carina looked at her stepfather for a minute, shook her head like she didn't believe him, and headed into the villa. Davis sighed and looked at the demon protecting his stepsister. "What did you say to make her not believe us Akida?" "Just that she was correct in leaving before she got hurt." "She ran away, Carina didn't even let me explain." Chris protested. "She ran because she saw your fear. Granted I saw your helplessness but Carina was correct in leaving. It saved her from getting hurt like before with Marquis." Akida spoke before walking into the villa after Carina. Tamious sighed and led the way inside after his stepdaughter and her servant. The group followed and found themselves led to their rooms by a couple of demons. Chris found out his room was beside Carina's because Akida was just coming out of it. Akida glared at him before keeping on her way to the living room. Carina joined the group a half-hour later. Dressed in a pair of light blue shorts and a sky blue tank top, Carina sat down beside Terous and Davis. Tamious handed her a cup, which she quickly downed without looking at it. "A potion to keep her powers under control." Terous explained at the charmed ones, Leo, and Chris' look. "Under control? Why does she need to do that? It doesn't make sense." Paige commented. "My powers fly out of control whenever I'm in a bad mood or I'm on the island. Papa had a demon brewer make the potion so that I could be free when I'm here and not have to worry about them all the time. Anything else you like to know while I'm here?" "How did you meet Tamious, Terous, and David? And what are your powers exactly?" Leo asked, from where he was sitting comfortably beside Piper. Carina closed her eyes for a second. When she reopened them she sighed. "I'll need to start at the beginning then but I'll skip some parts so we aren't here all night."

Flashback; Carina's third birthday Jumping onto Niteskyes lap a child with brown hair smiled up at her mother. "When he coming Moma? When he coming?" "Soon sweetheart, soon. He just got off work a few minutes ago." Niteskyes laughed softly. "Now, want him now!" Carina ordered. The front door opened and a male voice rang throughout the house and into the living room. "Niteskyes, Rina? I'm home." "Daddy!" Carina shouted, dropping off her mother's lap and running into the hall. Niteskyes followed and waited to greet her husband until he had picked up Carina. Aaron had just kissed his wife when a trio of demons orbed in. Quickly Aaron handed Carina to Niteskyes and ordered her to hide. Niteskyes ran to hide with Carina, leaving Aaron to fight the demons alone. One of the demons laughed when he saw Aaron getting ready to battle them alone. "You can try to fight us but you will die, MacLogin. Once we kill you, your wife and daughter will be next. We wouldn't want them coming after us for revenge because we killed you." "You're not going to touch them." Aaron growled, as Niteskyes and Carina listened in. "I'll make sure of that by taking you to hell with me!" That was the last time Carina ever heard her father speak again. Niteskyes ran with Carina as the sounds of battle were heard behind them. No one told them what happened until years later. Aaron had made good of his promise and took the demons to hell with him so that they never hurt his family again.

Carina's fifth birthday and Davis' seventh; Two children ran into the house followed by their parents. The male watched proudly as his son stopped to help his stepsister up the steps so she could go to her room to put her things away that she had gotten at the zoo. Most of them were gifts that Davis had won for Carina. Carina had (with her stepfather's, Tamious) help got Davis a goldfish which he put away after making sure Carina was fine. Downstairs Niteskyes started supper while Tamious read the paper and waited for the children to join him and Niteskyes.

Ten years later; Niteskyes came into the house and heard a scream. Racing into the living room she shot her power at the demon standing with Davis trying to break free of his chokehold. The demon deflected the powers and turned to Niteskyes, dropping Davis. Dogging the demon's attack Niteskyes attacked again. This went back and forth until the demon finally thrust his asthma into Niteskyes stomach. Tamious came in just in time to see his wife of fifteen years fall to the ground dead, a demon turning to face the kids. Tamious pulled his full power into himself and then shot it at the demon. With seventeen-year-old Davis shielding a fifteen-year-old Carina from the horrors Tamious blasted the demon into pieces. Carina who was peeking behind Davis found out then just who exactly her stepfather was and how deadly he was. Two days later the siblings found themselves in the underworld. It was there that they ran (literally) into Terous and became good friends with him. It was also in the underworld that Carina's powers first developed fully. She had the power to command whomever she wanted, levitation, freezing, Tk, and found out how deadly her main power, control over the elements, was. Marquis was soon brought into the family's life and joined them when they moved back to the surface and LA. It was because of Marquis that Carina had run in the first place and vowed never to go back to LA. End Flashback

It was silent for a few minutes before Tamious stood and led everyone to the dining room. They sat down to eat and as they were eating Leo asked some questions that Davis answered, allowing Carina to eat and think in silence. No one bothered her until dessert came. Terous finished eating and when Carina was done asked her to take a walk with him. Carina agreed and followed him out, glancing back once to meet Chris' gaze. Chris waited until they had been gone for a few minutes before excusing himself onto the flat roof. He found the best friends walking in the garden Tamious had made especially for Carina. Sitting on the side, Chris watched the couple so intently he never noticed Davis and Akida joining him until they sat down beside him. It was silent for a bit before Chris finally broke it, jealousy showing itself in his voice. "How can she trust him so much even after he betrayed her trust? I want, I wish she trust me like she does him." "You have to understand Chris. Rina was hurt before, by Marquis, so she's venerable about her heart. Terous is her best friend and that's it. He has his own love while she has you in her heart." Davis explained. "Doesn't she understand I went through almost exactly the same thing? After Bianca died I hardened my heart so no one could get in. But after meeting Carina she broke it down. I do anything, including die for her. I don't want her with any guys except me; I want to be there for her always, protecting her. I don't want her to have to always look out for herself. I want to do that for her." Chris spoke, his voice breaking with each word. "Then why did you have fear on your face after I turned to you from killing Marquis?" a soft voice questioned. Chris turned to see Carina standing behind him. They just stared at each other never noticing when Terous, Akida, and Davis disappeared. Finally Chris stood and walked over to Carina. Running a hand along her face he spoke, voice just as soft as Carina's had been. "I saw what happened to Bianca whenever she killed and I was afraid you become exactly like her. I know you're a witch and she was a demon but still... I was afraid that if you turned nothing would bring you back not even my love." "You could have told me this from the start. I was hurt and might have fought you at first but I would have listened." Carina whispered, turning to watch the sky. "I know. Please, give me another chance." Chris pleaded. "I'll try but I won't promise anything. I don't want to get hurt again." Carina turned to face Chris. Chris took a step forward and pulled her into his arms. "You won't, I promise. I only want to protect you and love you. I promise never to lie to you or keep things to myself again. Is that good enough for you?" Chris looked down at Carina, his green eyes glowing in the moonlight. "It's a start." Carina answered before pulling Chris into a kiss.

AN: Well that's it. Please tell me what you think and once again I don't own Charmed. Just my characters and plot.
