Summary: 17 years later after the gang's High School graduation. Someone has isolated himself or herself from everyone else and dropped all contact to there past life. They've created a new identity and a new life.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam only half heard everything that was happening around her.
"You were supposed to stay at the school." Leo told the man behind his daughter.
DJ didn't respond and luckily for Sam she didn't have to either. There were footsteps heard and then a small voice. "Dad?"
Everyone looked to the top of the stairs where Pam stood alone and looked like she was in shock.
"Pam." Sam and DJ said in unison.
DJ went to take a step forward but Pam shook her head and ran back up the hallway.
Sam alone went after her daughter but after a moment DJ followed. Everybody who was left in the living room looked at each other. Piper, Leo, Phoebe and Paige all orbed up together while Caitie, Alex and Kyle ran up the stairs and David blinked up beside Phoebe.
Pam had actually locked herself in the attic. Sam and DJ were outside the door trying to get it open.
"Pam, open the door!" Sam called to her daughter.
After not getting an answer, Sam placed her hand to the top hinge of the door, her hand glowed red for a moment and then she repeated the same for the bottom hinge. The door then disappeared.
Sam heard DJ inhale deeply behind her, angrily she turned her head around. "Oh, shut-up." She then faced the front and ran into the attic. Her hand was still glowing red.
"Pam! Get out here now!"
"YOU TOLD ME HE WAS DEAD!" Her voice echoed through the attic.
"I thought he was!"
"HOW COULD YOU MOM?"
"Pam..."
"HOW COULD YOU THINK KILLING DAD WOULD PROTECT US?!"
"I didn't mean to kill him, he's not even technically dead!"
"HE'S A WHITELIGHTER! I CAN SENSE IT!"
Sam and everybody else stopped dead in their tracks. "What do you mean you can sense it? You don't have that power." Sam called out to her daughter.
"I- I don't know.."
"Pam, can you please come out? You're scaring me."
"And me." DJ spoke up.
"Eight years and that's all you have for parenting skills?" Sam said aloud to her husband behind her.
Everyone; even Sam couldn't believe how much hatred she had for DJ. He hadn't done anything wrong except marry into her screwed up life. Maybe Caitie was right. Maybe it was smarter for her not to marry into a magical family with powers and lives as messed up as hers and David's.
But Pam did step out and into the middle of the attic. Sam and DJ turned around to face her and the first thing she did was hug DJ.
Sam stepped around DJ and her daughter and pushed past everybody else; leaving the attic.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sam made her way to Wyatt's room and knocked on the door. Wyatt's voice told her to come in.
Sam walked in and saw Tim and her brother playing cards on the bed.
"Tim, why don't you go up to the attic for a moment, there's something there I think you should see."
Tim looked confused but got off the bed and left the room anyways.
Wyatt could tell something was wrong with his big sister.
"What's wrong?
Sam didn't respond but shook off Wyatt's question.
"Nothing." She eventually told him. Her voice was barely above a whisper. "I have to go."
Sam turned around to leave the room and she was halfway down the stairs before it clicked with Wyatt. He stood outside his room but waited for a couple minutes before orbing downstairs to Sam's room and just as he suspected she was quickly packing various objects and clothes.
"You're leaving again?"
Sam jumped at her brother's voice but continued packing.
"I can't stay here. I really can't Wyatt. It's killing me."
"What is? Being here or DJ being here?"
"Does it really matter?!"
"Yea, actually it does because DJ can go anywhere you are and yea so could we but we don't and won't because believe me Mom and Dad know you well enough to know that when you don't come to us it usually means you want to stay away and not see us. They always said you were like Aunt Phoebe that way but DJ just wants to be with you Sam. It's Mom and Dad who have always held him back from going to see you."
"Wyatt, I. Need. To. Get. Out of here."
"I'm not letting you leave."
Sam stopped for a moment to give Wyatt a glare then went back to zipping up a duffel bag.
She headed towards the door but Wyatt was right. He wasn't going to let her leave. "Wyatt, move."
"No."
"Move."
Wyatt stood firm.
"MOVE!"
"NO!"
Sam's hand glowed red again and once she pressed it against Wyatt's chest he went flying back across the living room. Sam's duffel bag dropped to the floor with the movement of her hand.
Wyatt quickly recovered and didn't hesitate with using his powers. He sent Sam flying back into her own room. She recovered quite quickly too. She kicked the duffel bag back into her room so she wouldn't trip over it and quickly sent a vase at Wyatt's head.
Wyatt's force shield automatically went up to protect him.
"Cheater." Sam muttered under his breath as the vase dropped to the floor after his the shield.
Wyatt took the shield down and exploded the table that was right in front of Sam so that it knocked her back, but Sam froze the action and the table was caught between mid-explosion.
(A/N: We have to remember that Wyatt is like 18 now and his powers would've grown by now that he can do witchy stuff like exploding and stuff.)
At this point everybody who had been upstairs. (Kyle, Alex, Caitie, David, Pam, DJ, Tim, Leo, Paige, Piper and Phoebe) was now gathered either at the top of the stairs, on the small platform half-way up the stairs, or on various steps watching the brother and sister.
"What the hell are they doing?" Caitie asked in shock.
"Exactly what we wanted Sam to do." Phoebe commented.
"Working out her problems." Leo, Piper and Paige all replied in unison.
Sam threw an energy ball at Wyatt's second attempt to explode something so that the explosion and energy ball met halfway and cancelled each other.
Wyatt moved his hand so that the bookcase behind Sam came crashing down but Sam blinked out so Wyatt followed suit and orbed out.
"Where'd they go?" Alex asked; confused but nobody had time to explain before the two blinked and orbed back in right in front of each other. Sam's hand was glowing red yet again but before she could hit Wyatt in the chest with it again, he pressed his gold glowing hand on her stomach.
Sam was in serious pain. The red from her hand quickly disappeared but Wyatt still didn't let go. Sam doubled over and there was a great white flash that over took the room. Once it was gone and their visions cleared Wyatt was still pressing on Sam's stomach but as a last attempt Sam brought her hand up and telekinetically threw him away from her but her hand wasn't glowing red. It was just normal. Both of them collapsed to the floor. Wyatt just had the wind knocked out of him but Sam was past out on the floor.
Leo checked on Wyatt while Phoebe and Piper checked on Sam.
David came over to Sam as well but as he bent down. He noticed something different about her. His face must've shown how confused he was because Piper immediately asked what was wrong in fear that her first born and only daughter might be... no, she couldn't say it or even think it.
"There's something different about her, something's missing." David told Piper. He looked at Wyatt. "What did you do?"
"I don't know." He admitted.
"She's still alive." David reassured the family and friends. "But something... it seems familiar but..."
Something then came alive in David's memory and mind. "No, it couldn't be. It's impossible."
"What's going on."
"DJ." David muttered under his breath. "Somebody go get DJ!" Nobody moved. "NOW!" David yelled.
DJ had taken Pam and Tim back into Wyatt's room once he saw Sam and Wyatt fighting so now Kyle moved to go get his little brother.
A few moments later he popped into view and ran down the stairs by his wife. "What's going on?"
"Give me you arm." DJ didn't asked questions but held out his arm out to David. David released a quick and extremely small fireball onto DJ's arm so that it left a small burn and DJ jumped back in surprise at the pain, the burn also didn't heal like it was supposed to since he had whitelighter healing powers.
"Why isn't it healing?" Leo asked
"Try orbing." Was all David replied. DJ nodded and attempted to orb but he didn't go anywhere's.
"What's going on?" Phoebe asked.
"Wyatt broke the deal."
