Chapter 5:Dastardly Plot
Disclaimer: Do you think I own Charmed?, of course I don't! I do own Penny, Pamela, Tyler and any other character you might not recognize but unfortunately I own little else.
Phoebe tried as best she could to take care of Paige, Chris and Pamela but she knew there was very little she could do. She had removed the arrows, which had caused screams of agony from her sister and he niece and nephew, and broken them in half. It was too little, too late for the poison had already begun to spread. She had sporadically tried to call for Leo even though she somehow knew he wouldn't or couldn't come. She had tried calling Piper , but her cell phone was turned off.
Paige was extremely concerned her daughter who was extremely pale and shaking uncontrollably and taking sharp, haggard breaths. While Paige and Chris were both hot, yet shaking and having trouble breathing, Pamela seemed much worse off than both of them. She explained that because she was only one quarter whitelighter, the effects of darklighter poison were more painful and more drawn out. Suddenly, Paige began panting, her limbs shaking and sweat forming on her brow.
Phoebe rushed to her side, placing a wet cloth on her forehead. "Are you okay?", Phoebe asked her sister, her voice filled with concern.
"No", Paige answered, still shaking.
Tyler, meanwhile, was tending to Chris and Pam who were steadily getting worse. They knew they needed help. They only prayed it would come.
Piper and Penny chose that moment to walk in the door.
"Hi everyone, we're home!" called Piper, unaware of the crisis in the manor.
Phoebe wanted to call out to her sister, tell her she was needed, but her mouth was unable to form the words.
Piper and Penny walked into the foyer and gasped at what they saw. Paige, Pamela and Chris lying on the floor, bleeding profusely. Darklighter arrows were on the floor, snapped in half. Piper looked at Phoebe, who was leaning on Tyler, her head in her hands.
"Why didn't you call Leo to heal them?" Piper asked, not really wanting to hear the answer.
"I did", replied Phoebe, "he wouldn't come".
'Bastard', Penny whispered under her breath. Apparently, she shared Chris' resentment of the person Leo had become. Piper was angry that her ex husband didn't come down from "up there" to heal her sister, her niece and THEIR son. She couldn't just stand there and let them die. She had to DO something.
"She glanced up to the heavens and yelled, "ANY RANDOM WHITELIGHTER GET DOWN HERE TO DO SOME HEALING IF YOU WANT TO KEEP YOUR PRECIOUS CHARMED ONES!" Much to her surprise, blue-white orbs began to form in the corner. She hadn't really expected anything to happen. A beautiful young woman with shoulder length brown hair and bright green eyes appeared before them.
"My name is Valerie, I was sent to heal you", she said simply.
She placed a glowing, healing hand over Pam's wound, Chris' wound, and finally Paige's. Paige felt warmth spread through her body, and she could feel the poison slowly ebb away. She grabbed Phoebe's hand and slowly pulled herself up. She faced Valerie and said, "Why didn't Leo come?" She then asked a question that made everyone's blood run cold.
"Where's Wyatt…?"
