***Two months later***

Leo finished his morning jog. He was sweating. It was terribly hot outside another San Francisco heat wave.

He saw someone moving in across the street. A woman and two men were moving things in. The woman caught his eye and waved. Leo waved back. He grinned as he went back into the house.

Andy was shirtless and fixing the air conditioner.

"Nice time for this to break down" he said.

Leo sighed and plopped down on the couch as Cole walked in with two fans.

"I wish I had the power to fix things" said Leo.

Andy cried out loud while clutching his hand.

"Electrical shock" said Andy.

"That's it I'm calling the repairman" said Cole.

"I can fix this" said Andy.

Cole was already on the phone.

"Well I'm going to buy some ice" said Andy.

"It's probably gone" said Leo. "What's with the neighbors across the street?"

"Kyle, Jim, and Sheila Bason" reported Andy. "We met them while you were out"

"Oh" said Leo.

"Well the repairman will be here in about an hour" said Cole. He set up the fans and turned them on. It didn't really help but the brothers sat on the couch.

"We could be at the beach" said Andy.

"It's probably packed and the water is warm" said Leo closing his eyes.

Cole turned on the news to the weather.

"100 degrees" said Cole. "And counting"

"Don't people die from this weather" said Andy. "And there goes Leo running in it"

Leo shrugged. "You could do some running yourself"

Cole rolled his eyes. Sometimes he just wanted to strangle those two, always in competition.

"I could use a nice cold beer" said Cole.

"No you couldn't" said Leo.

"One wouldn't hurt" said Cole. "Besides I have occasional drinks once in a while"

"Cole!" cried Leo looking at his brother in confusion.

"What?" asked Cole innocently. "Leo I'm not an alcoholic. It was just a bad period"

"No it wasn't" said Leo. "I don't know why after 12 years you're still denying and not taking it seriously"

"Listen Leo I had enough of taking it seriously" said Cole. "And you can't stop me. If I wanted a beer I would go get one"

He glared at Leo coldly. How dare he talk to him like that?

"Goodbye" he said angrily. He stood up and left the manor.

Andy looked at Leo. "Leo just leave it alone. I went drinking with Cole the other night. He knows how to control himself"

Leo looked at Andy surprisingly. Leo shook his head.

***An hour later***

Cole still wasn't home and Andy was making sandwiches when the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it" said Leo still in a foul mood.

He swung open the door and saw a woman with long brown hair, brown eyes, and a sweet smile. She was wearing a black tank top, and a pair of shorts. She held a toolbox.

"You're the handyman?" asked Leo.

"Handy woman" said the woman. She stuck out her hand. "Piper Wyatt"

"Piper very pretty name" said Leo while shaking her hand. "You have quite a grip"

Piper smiled and entered. "So what's the problem?"

"Do you have to ask?" asked Leo.

"The air conditioner" she said while walking to the living room. She looked around at the manor. "Nice place"

"Thanks" said Leo.

Piper was looking at the pictures of the three brothers on the mantel.

"Us three live here" said Leo.

"You don't get annoyed?" asked Piper.

"Nah" said Leo. "I lived with them for 28 years what's a few more"

Piper bent down to the air conditioner and started working. Leo watched her for a few minutes and then entered the kitchen.

"You should check out the babe in our living room" said Leo. "She's the handy woman"

"You've got to be kidding me" said Andy. "You bump me off for a woman"

"Well that woman just fixed your air condition" said Piper walking in.

Andy blushed with embarrassment. "Sorry male ego bruised here"

"It's okay" said Piper. "I get it all the time"

"So we get a bill?" asked Leo.

"Yeah" said Piper pulling out a receipt.

"Andy get my wallet upstairs in my bedroom" said Leo raising his eyebrows at Andy.

Andy got the hint and went upstairs saying bye to Piper.

"Thirsty?" asked Leo.

"Very" said Piper.

"Have a seat" said Leo pulling out the stool.

"Thanks" said Piper as Leo poured her a glass of lemonade. Piper drank the glass quickly.

***Outside***

Cole parked his car in front of the manor. He glanced at the six pack of beer that was just sitting there in the passenger seat. He had spent a half and hour at the liquor store. The clerk thought he was planning to steal something. Thoughts kept running in his mind like what if he lost control.

Life was so complicated. He grabbed a bottle and opened it with his shirt. It was so cold and the weather was so hot. He took a small sip and didn't swallow. God, he wanted to so bad. He was losing a battle he promised never to lose to again. Himself. He was letting alcohol be his boss again. Cole opened his car door and spat the beer out of his mouth then he took the case and angrily got out. He spotted the trashcan and dumped it in there.

Leo walked Piper to the door.

"Thanks" said Leo. "I'll call you sometime"

She raised her eyebrows.

"If anything breaks" covered up Leo.

Piper nodded and she opened the door. Leo saw Cole red faced and staring into the trashcan.

"Who's that?" asked Piper. "Is he okay?"

"That's my brother Cole" said Leo. "And yes I'll tend to him"

Piper nodded and walked to her car. Cole turned around and saw Leo standing by the door.

Oh Great!

Cole stomped up the steps to the porch he shoved past Leo.

"Cole don't be mad" said Leo. He was met with the door slamming in his face. He knocked on the door angrily. Andy opened it and held in a laugh.

"Shut up" warned Leo.

They started to walk towards the kitchen when a doorbell sounded. Cole emerged from the kitchen. Leo glared at him as he walked to the door.

Leo opened it and.

Cole face hardened and Leo opened his eyes wide. Andy held on to the wall.

"Dad" stuttered Leo.

"He's not your father" said Cole coldly.

Victor stood there looking at his three sons.

"Come in" said Leo.

"Or don't" said Cole trying to keep control of his power.

"Umm I'm in town" said Victor. "Staying at the Hilton"

"Heard that was a good hotel" said Cole crossing his arms.

"Look I know you're mad" said Victor.

"Mad isn't even in the atmosphere of what I'm feeling" said Cole. "Now what the hell do you want?"

"Cole don't talk to me like that" said Victor.

"Am I supposed to be glad you remembered my name?" asked Cole.

Victor looked between Leo and Andy. He looked at Andy.

"Leo?"

"Get out" said Cole. "Right now. His name is Andy"

"Cole it's okay" said Andy. "I mean he left when I couldn't even walk yet"

"I'm sorry" said Victor. "Really"

He sighed heavily avoiding his eldest son's glare.

"I want to get to know you" said Victor. "I know it's too late but look if you want. I would love it if you could join me for dinner at the hotel restaurant at 8pm"

He sighed and walked away. As soon as he walked down the steps every window and every door open in the house slammed shut with such force. Andy and Leo jumped and cried out. They turned to their red-faced brother who was burning a hole in the door.

They looked at eachother worriedly.

***That night***

It was raining and Andy was in Leo's room. It was 6:35pm.

"I want to go" said Andy playing with Leo's basketball.

Leo looked up from the book he was reading. He sighed.

"So do I" said Leo.

"But I don't want to betray Cole" said Andy.

"How about we ask him before we regret it?" asked Leo. "If he says no we'll still go"

Andy nodded and they walked to Cole's room. They saw it was wide open and Cole was lying in front of the fan apparently sleeping. Leo and Andy were about to go when Cole spoke.

"Go" he said. "I don't mind just don't expect anything and don't trust him"

"You sure?" asked Andy. "We're only going to see what he wants"

"Yeah shut off the light please" said Cole.

Leo nodded shut off the light and closed the door.

"That's so not like him" said Andy.

Leo shrugged and they got ready.

***Hotel restaurant***

Andy and Leo took a seat across from their father.

"Wow you two have grown" said Victor smiling.

"Cole couldn't make it" said Andy.

"I figured that" said Victor.

"Besides that he hasn't been feeling well" said Leo.

"I hope it's nothing serious" said Victor.

"Hopefully not" said Andy. "He refuses to go to the doctor"

"Yeah I know" said Victor. An uncomfortable silence came through. The waiter walked up.

"Drinks?" he asked.

"Scotch on the rocks" said Victor. He looked at Andy and Leo.

"We'll have two sprites" said Andy.

The waiter took the order and left.

"You boys don't drink?" asked Victor.

"We try not to" said Leo. "The "why" is not our story to tell"

"So Leo I've seen you in a couple magazine ads and commercials" said Victor. "And you starred in a soap opera"

"He was killed off" said Andy smirking.

Leo rolled his eyes.

"Yeah" said Leo. "I'm into acting and modeling these days"

"That's great" said Victor. "Cole's a lawyer right?"

"Yeah how did you know?" asked Leo.

"I have friends down here" said Victor. "I keep track of you three"

"Well I'm jobless" said Andy. "Still didn't find the right thing yet"

"Well that's not bad" said Victor. "Any women in your life?"

"Cole and I are bad in that department" said Leo. "But Prue walked back into Andy's life"

"Hey" said Andy. "We're just friends"

As the two bickered Victor saw a waiter walking with a lit birthday cake in her hand. As she walked by him he stuck his foot out and.

Leo rolled his eyes as Andy was picking a fight. He saw a waitress walking by with a lit cake just as he was about to tell Andy to be quiet he saw the waiter trip and the cake was about to fly in the air.

"Whoa!" cried Leo as he froze her and everyone in the restaurant.

"Hurry Leo" said Andy as Leo got up and held the cake. Three seconds later the scene unfroze and the waiter fell on the floor.

Andy helped the guy up and Leo handed him the cake.

"Thanks" said the waiter walking away.

Leo and Andy sat back down.

"Let me guess Leo you have the power to freeze like your mother" said Victor.

"What?" asked Leo.

"You three received your powers as The Charmed Ones" said Victor. "Come to my hotel room and I'll have the food delivered there"

Leo and Andy baffled walked away with their father.

***Victor's Hotel Room***

"So you knew the family secret all along and didn't tell us" said Leo.

"Your grandmother didn't want me to" said Victor. "And I obeyed her wishes because by telling you would've put you in danger sooner than I had to. Trust me I wanted to take you away from that but your Grams said if I made one move towards a custody battle she would make sure I regretted it"

"Do why did you leave?" asked Andy.

"I didn't want to be apart of that anymore" said Victor. "I didn't want that kind of life for you"

"Anything else?" asked Leo feeling that Victor was holding something back.

"Well your mother had an affair with her whitelighter" said Victor bitterly.

"Whitelighter?" asked Andy. "What's that?"

"You weren't assigned one yet I guess" said Victor. "There are supposedly guardian angels sent to protect and mentor you"

"Hmm" said Leo. "No mom wouldn't do that"

"She did" said Victor. "That's why I left. Just don't tell Cole"

"We won't" said Leo. "He has enough problems"

Victor nodded. "Boys I'm really sorry you don't know how much"

Leo and Andy nodded.

***Bason House***

Sheila watched Cole sleeping through the window. She flew up to the attic window and spotted the Book of Shadows. Another crow sat beside her.

"Now Sheila go do your job" said Jim.

Sheila nodded.

***Next Day***

"So did you two have fun?" asked Cole as he walked into the kitchen the next morning.

"Well he knows our secret" said Andy.

"That's what he's here for" said Cole. "Probably the Book"

"Cole let's not go too far" said Leo.

"Don't trust him" cried Cole. "You two are so blind"

Andy rolled his eyes. "Yeah well I've got a date with that Sheila"

"Really" said Leo.

"Yeah" said Andy. "And we might be coming back here so stay in your rooms"

Cole rolled his eyes. "I'll be in the office till 10"

"Alright" said Leo getting up. "I'm going to study that Book"

***That night***

Sheila and Andy were kissing heatedly on the couch.

"This isn't really my style" said Sheila as she pulled away.

"Really" said Andy. "That's interesting"

She giggled. "Are your brothers home?"

"Nope both gone" said Andy.

"Great" said Sheila. "I'll be back"

She went to the bathroom and the doorbell rang. Andy went and opened the door.

"Victor" said Andy.

"Hello Andy" said Victor. "Can I come in?"

"Sure" said Andy.

He let Victor in and he walked to the living room. He spotted a vase and picked it up.

"What are you doing?" asked Andy.

"Taking the book" said Victor coolly. He hit Andy over the head with the vase.

He fell to the ground unconscious. Victor smiled and dragged him to the closet. He put him in but she heard someone trying to break in the manor and hid in the closet also.

Victor walked in cautious he was sure no one was home because there was no cars in the driveway. Victor carefully went upstairs and "Victor" opened the door.

Cole and Leo walked in.

"What are you doing in our house?" asked Cole angrily.

"Umm I was visiting Andy" said Victor shutting the closet door. "The front door was wide open"

Just then the real Victor came downstairs with the Book in hand. Cole eyes went wide.

"I told you" said Cole.

Leo was looking at the two Victors.

"We have a bigger problem than that" said Leo. "One of them is probably a demon"

"We vanquish both of them" said Cole.

"Cole I'm your real father" said "Victor". "He's the imposter"

"How are we supposed to tell" said Leo.

"Evil wants the book" said Cole.

"Evil can't touch the book" said Leo looking at the "Victor" in front of him.

"Don't you think demons use spells?" asked "Victor".

"Well like you said this morning you were trying to protect us" said Leo.

"That's right" said "Victor".

"The problem is" said Leo making eye contact with Victor. "That we hadn't talked since last night"

Victor tossed the book on the floor as "Victor" changed into Jim. Sheila and Kyle ran downstairs and tackled Victor.

Leo froze the group as Cole was flipping through the book.

"They're shapeshifters" said Cole speed reading. "Wait we need Andy"

They saw the door open and Andy crawled out holding his head. He saw the scene.

"What the hell?" asked Andy.

"Hurry and say the spell with us" said Cole.

Everyone unfroze and Cole used his powers and sent everyone flying in different directions.

"Cole!" cried Leo. "Victor"

"Oops" said Cole sarcastically. "Let's say this thing"

In the circle that is home, Safety's gone and evil roam, Rid all beings from these walls, Save brothers three and heed our call.

The shapeshifters screamed in pain as they went up in smoke and exploded. Victor stood up and everyone looked at eachother.

"Thanks" said Victor.

"Non needed" said Cole shutting the book. "Just what the hell were you doing?"

"I didn't want you three in this mess" said Victor. "I didn't want to get a call saying my sons died. You're mother died by a demon"

Cole crossed his arms.

"It's not for you to make decisions for us" said Cole. "I want you to leave and I don't want you to make contact with me. I don't care if you get to know Leo or Andy but if you hurt them. So help me God I will kill you"

With that he picked up the book and went upstairs.

"Sorry for Cole" said Leo.

Victor shook his head. "He'll never forgive me, do you think you ever could?"
