We Blame and Bleed
5/6/2004

Okay, here it is, the update you've been asking for. Sorry it's so short, I will write more as soon as I can. Please review!

Slowly we learn to live

Quickly we blame and bleed

Deeply we love and feel

Slowly we begin to be

::Flashback::

Wyatt stood in front of his mother, fidgeting uncomfortably.

"Is something wrong, Wyatt?" Piper asked, looking worried.

"Well, promise me you won't get mad."

Piper began to frown. Wyatt had been acting strange lately, ever since he turned fifteen. Maybe now he would tell her why. "What is it?"

"You have to promise."

She almost laughed, "Okay, I promise."

"Lilith's pregnant."

"Oh no. Oh no oh no oh no." True to her promise, Piper did not get mad. She knew that Lilith and Wyatt were dating, but she thought that Lilith went to the local high school, she had no idea she was a demon. "Well, you're going to have to tell her about magic, because she'll be carrying a magical baby, she won't know what's happening-"

"Mom." Wyatt interrupted her, "She knows."

"Oh good. Wait a second, you told her about magic without telling me? We could have been exposed, you could have- Wyatt, why can't you be more like Chris?"

"Because I don't want to be like Chris. Beside, Lilith won't tell."

"How do you know?"

"I just do."

"But how will she be able to control the baby's powers?"

"I'll bind them until the baby's born.

Piper sighed. At least he had thought everything through. But he and Lilith can't raise a baby, they're still kids themselves, she thought. She didn't know how wrong she was.

AS the time passed, Wyatt became crueler, more evil. By the time the child was due, he was prepared to take over San Francisco, and to kill thousands- including his own mother.

Piper was preparing dinner for the family when the phone rang. She answered it, "Hello?"

"Hi mom, it's me, Wyatt. I just thought you should know I'm not going to be there for dinner. Lilith's in labor."

"Oh sweetie, I'll tell your father, we canal head over to the hospital-"

"No," he replied harshly, "Just have your dinner." Then he hung up, leaving Piper staring at the phone inn shock. Wyatt was becoming so cold, so distant lately. She wondered what he did when he wasn't home.

It was at that moment that Leo orbed in.

"Oh you're here! Chris has been so exited about you coming."

"Well, actually, I can't stay. A prophecy about a great source of power coming into the world is going to come true tomorrow."

"Oh, Chris is going to be so disappointed. I wish you had time for him, you know how much he wants to spend time with you. Soon, you'll realize that there isn't any time left."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"Only that you should pay more attention to your son, because he'll be grown up before you know it."

"This is really important."

"Well, you know, Wyatt's girlfriend is in labor. Maybe their baby is this great source of power."

"Maybe."

Three months later

The sound of Alison's cries jolted Lilith from her sleep. She jumped out of bed to face the demon that had just materialized. Instead of fighting, she grabbed the child and shimmered to the Manor.

"Lilith, what are you doing here?" Piper asked,

"A demon attacked us, and the baby just orbed us over here," she lied. "Can we stay here tonight, in case another one comes?"

"Sure. Our home is always open to you."

Lilith smiled gratefully. "Thank you."

"But where's Wyatt? Shouldn't he be able to protect you?" Lilith and Wyatt lived in an apartment they had told Piper was right next to Lilith's parents' house. They had even gotten a couple of demons to pretend to be them.

"Well he's just gone so much lately."

Piper frowned. He should be taking better care of her. "Oh, I see. Well, you're welcome to stay here as long as you like. You can sleep in Wyatt's old room." Lilith nodded, and walked upstairs.

Wyatt faced a room full of demons. "We can do this! We can defeat the Charmed Ones and take power for ourselves!" He called out to them. "Now are you with me?"

"Yeah!" the demons shouted. Wyatt smiled. Everything was going according to the plan. Soon, he would have all the power he ever wanted.

"Okay," he said to them, "Here's the plan." He detailed the complicated scheme to destroy the Charmed Ones. It played upon their weaknesses and avoided their strengths. They would never see it coming.
