"Frozen In Time"

Chapter Two: Where Do We Go From Here?
The funeral was unbearable for Piper, she cried for about two thirds of the service. The last third she went into the hallway and prayed for her sisters. The pain in her heart was too much for her to even handle. Leo felt helpless.
The limo pulled back into the manor's driveway, Piper just got up and left. She didn't plan on having a reception. She had something very important to do. The one thing she knew she had to do.
"Leo?" she called out gently as she entered the attic. "Leo??" she said staring up at the heavens.
There was that familiar jingling and in orbed her husband.
"Where were you?" she asked, her eyes read and puffy.
"I was called. The Elders seem to think there is a demon possessing young boys." said Leo as he went to look in the Book.
"Leo? I'm thinking about releasing my powers. You know? Getting rid of magic, once and for all."
Leo's face dropped. "But what about your destiny?" he stammered. "My magical destiny was with my sisters, which I have none thanks to magic." she said, angrily.
"But, Piper!" he protested, only to be frozen. "I'm nothing this with or without your help." she said as she gathered the Book and some candles.
She lit a circle of candles, and she sat in the middle. She opened the Book to a fresh page, and looked at her frozen husband. He would be so angry at her, but she had to do this.
She began to chant a simple spell:
Oldest Gods Above Me
Hear Me Now, With This Plea
Remove All The Magic
Please Set Me Free
There was a gust of wind. The candles went out and Leo unfroze. There was a strike of lightening in the attic, and Piper could feel something being pulled from her. With each gust and with each strike, she lost more and more energy, her power, her destiny. Page by Page the Book was erased, all the spells, potions, demon histories, and genealogy disappeared.
The magic was gone.
"Piper?" asked Leo as he looked at his wife. She had all color drained from her cheeks. "Leo?" she started and she just broke down.
He rushed to her side and held her close and just let her cry. It was all she could do now. She not only lost her sisters, she had just given up magic, the one thing that kept the three together.
"Come on, Piper. Let's go to sleep." he said as he orbed her to their room.
( Next Morning)
"Good Morning." beamed Piper as she placed two plates on the table.
"Hey, you feeling better?" asked Leo as he sat down and placed his tool box on the counter.
"Toolbox?"
"Yeah, the Elders are giving me a new charge today."
"That's nice." she said as she sat down next to him.
"What are you going to do?" he asked taking a bit into his French Toast. "I'm thinking about clearing out Their rooms today. You know for the space? For when we have a family." she said, trying to hold back tears.
"It'll be okay. It has to be." he smiled reassuringly.
Leo left about fifteen minutes later, leaving Piper alone in the large house. She knew she had to do this.
She was carrying a large vase into the living room, when she tripped and the vase fell towards the ground. She flicked her wrists and nothing happened.
"I gotta get use to this." she sighed and continued on her way.
The whole day was spent packing up things in Prue and Phoebe's rooms. She kept only what she wanted to keep out for others too see, mainly pictures. Everything else was put in boxes and stored in the attic. There on the floor were the candles and Book. She strolled over and picked the stuff up and placed back into it's ancient trunk.
"Piper?" came Leo's voice from downstairs.
"Yes?" she called down to him. "I'm home, I was thinking we can go out for dinner?" he yelled back.
"Okay, give me like fifteen minutes."
"Okay!"
( At Dinner )
"Leo?"
"Yes, sweetie?"
"Where do we go from here?"
"Forward into the future. Who knows, maybe some day we'll even have kids." he smirked.
"Yeah. I would hope so." she smiled.
*That was chapter two! I hope you all enjoyed! Thanks to my reviewers! Uhm..chapter three will be set about three months in the future. The story will shift into the future at certain times. Hehe...Enjoy! ~Damien455**
