Chapter Eight

All was quiet in the manor, now. The Charmed Ones climbed out from whatever they were hiding behind and stared at the woman before them all. They didn't know what to say.

"Peace?" Chris spoke up.

She turned to him and gave him a smile. "Hello, Chris." She said.

"I can't believe it." He said. "Is it really you?"

She nodded. "Yes. It is."

"But, how can that be? I read a completely different spell than the first one."

"I know. When you said the first spell, I was carefully watching over you. Others chose to ignore the spell, while I embraced it."

"Why?" Leo asked.

"Because, he was meant for great things. He was the only one who was brave enough to come here and help to save Wyatt. I had to make sure that he was well taken care of."

"How did you find me again?" Chris asked.

"I still had my senses tracked on you. Then, I disguised myself to get all the information I could about you. I had to make sure that you were still safe."

"Something's bothering me." Piper spoke up.

Peace turned to Piper. "Yes?" She asked.

"You told them to tell their father nice try. But, you called him father. Why?"

Peace gave a meek smile and let out a long sigh. "Because, their father is my father and the father of my sisters as well."

"Wait, so you're half evil?" Paige asked.

"I'm afraid so, but I do not embrace that side of me."

"So, that's why one of you was embraced by darkness." Leo said. The girls gave him a confused look.

"Leo, what are you talking about?" Phoebe asked.

"He means that I belong to both the light and the dark, as do the Horsemen. We are those who keep this world in balance. That is why there is both good and evil. That is why there are two sides to everything; why there is a gray area… But, let's not be bothered by my family. I am just so happy to see that Chris is still safe."

"Yes, but Wyatt isn't." Chris spoke up.

"He's not?" She asked.

Everyone in the room noticed a light bulb going on in Chris's head. "Hey, you know what the future is. Can you tell us who is after Wyatt?"

She shook her head. "Chris, you know I can't do that. We are not aloud to interfere with this."

"Why not?" Piper asked.

"We can't reveal things that will happen, because it will cause the fabric of time to tear and interfere with fate. I'm sorry. I really wish that I was able to help you and tell you who is after Wyatt, but I just can't."

Chris nodded. "I understand."

"But, I can tell you this: You shouldn't trust everyone you think is on your side. Your closest friend may be your greatest enemy. Remember that." With that said, she placed a kiss on Chris's head. "Be well, child. I will be watching over you." She then started to fade away.

"Wait!" Chris said. "There's still so much I want to ask you!"

"If you need me, just call for me and I'll be there for you. I wish you all well." And she was gone.

Chris took a seat on the couch and ran his hand through his hair. "'Your closest friend may be your greatest enemy'. What do you suppose she meant by that?" He asked.

Leo shook his head, not understanding. "I don't know. But, I feel as though we're going to find out."

Sadly, yes this is the end of my story. I figure that the season finale would have happened right after this. Please, read and review and tell me what you think. Even if you didn't like it, I'd like to know what you have to say!!!

Thank you
