True loves first kiss
I'm happy that at least one person commented on Leo's decision right at the end, on wanting to stay a whitelighter, meaning he wont continue kissing Piper.
Thanks for your reviews, and here is the next chapter of the story, which is slowly even more closely coming to an end. I was actually going to have the wedding this chapter, but I've managed to think up a different chapter and maybe one more it depends. So sit back, enjoy, read and review :)
Chapter 17: Hope
"Get lost!" screams a young witch with long blond hair tied up in a ponytail. She has green eyes, and wears a blue tank top and a long black skirt. It's nearly 2:15pm and the weather is starting to pick up once more. The witch made her way into an alleyway when a demon attacked her. He's bald, and has blue piercing eyes. He wears a black t-shirt with a long black leather jacket and black trousers. The witch dives out of the way from an energyball thrown at her. "Leave me be!" she screams again. The demon coldly laughs at her, and sends another energyball at her. Waving her hand, the energyball turns to mist and disappears.
"Nifty power, which is why I want you. Now stay still!" he growls at her. The woman tries somehow to get away, and backs into a dumpster. As soon as she looks at what she backed into, the demon takes it upon him and sends another energyball at the woman, this time connecting into her stomach roughly. Screaming with pain, she falls to the ground with a scorch mark on her stomach and bleeding badly.
"Stop!" she tries to yell but it only comes out as a whisper from her pain. The demon slowly walks towards her, taking out a curved athame from his pocket, and smirks evilly at her. She painfully looks up and notices the athame but is in too much pain to wave her hand and make it disappear.
"This is too easy" he laughs, until suddenly the athame is sent flying out of his hands. Looking at his hand and then where the athame went confused and puzzled, he turns his attention to the streets, where Prue and Phoebe are standing, Prue's arm gently by her side by the looks of it, used her power of telekinesis.
"And then you met us…" mocks Phoebe. The demon tries to throw an energyball at the sister's, but Phoebe stands firm and looks right at the energyball. Pain and anxiousness comes into Phoebe, as she sends the energyball flying back and crashing into the shocked demon. As he's sent flying backwards, and crashing into a fence. Prue runs over to the woman and looks at her caringly.
"Alright, we're gonna' help you. Leo!" shouts Prue holding onto the witch's hand. She begins to slowly fade, and Phoebe picks up on the pain, clutching onto her stomach and scrunching up her face.
"Ah!" she moans painfully bending over, the pain shooting through her body. Prue turns and realizes what's going on.
"Oh god, Phoebe hold in there! Fight it! LEO!" screams Prue as Leo orbs in next to her. The demon looks around and sends an energyball at Phoebe's head. "Phoebe!" warns Prue. As Phoebe stands up straight, it hits her chest, sending her flying backwards, and to the pavement in the streets, crashing into a trash can screaming. "Phoebe!" screams Prue standing up as Leo does his magic. Prue notices the athame and waves her hand, sending it flying towards the demon. However, as soon as he saw it lift off from the floor he quickly shimmers out.
"One witch healed here" calls over Leo, running over to Phoebe quickly. As the witch stands up dizzy and confused, Leo arrives next to Phoebe and puts his hands over her chest, his hands glowing a bright yellow.
"What happened?" asks the woman dazed.
"We kicked demon butt and saved you" smiles Prue.
"How did you know I was here? The streets are empty" asks the woman. Leo puts his hands down, finally healing Phoebe who breaths in and begins to cough.
"Well there's this storm coming, and so me and my sister are making sure that there are people away in their homes" replies Prue, as Leo helps up Phoebe who gives him a 'thank you' hug. 'Although with what Leo said about this storm…their homes are probably the worst place to hide' thinks Prue, knowing that bricks and debris could tumble down on them. Phoebe makes her way towards Prue, as Prue helps up the woman. "Hey you alright?" asks Prue turning to her sister and she nods her head.
"Who are you?" asks Phoebe eyeing the woman. "Why was that demon after you?" asks Phoebe.
"Well I have the power to make objects or powers disappear, and he was going to use this athame to kill me and take that power from me" reveals the woman. She then remembers something and holds out her hand to Prue; "I'm Jessica" she smiles.
"Prue" says Prue shaking her hand, she then moves over to Phoebe.
"I'm Phoebe, nice to meet you" she smiles.
"And I'm Leo, but we could really use you" says Leo.
"What do you mean?" asks Jessica. Prue shoots him a glare.
"You didn't tell her?" asks Leo and Prue shakes her head. "What did you tell her then?" he asks.
"That we came to make sure innocents were in their homes for the gathering storm" replies Prue. Leo shakes his head and turns to the woman.
"Listen, Prue and Phoebe are two members of the charmed ones. Their sister has been kidnapped and will be made to marry this warlock named Jetix, turning her evil, and possibly the sisters and the book of shadows. We need a strong army of witches to come and help us fight this evil, so we can save Piper, their sister, and save the world. The storm is because of the planets lining up for the wedding, in which Jetix will begin the wedding" fills in Leo. Jessica raises her eyebrows surprised by what she heard, and tries to take it all in.
"I'll help" she smiles, "After all you helped me" she smiles.
"Actually, he escaped, but Phoebe the athame is over there, try and see if you can get a premonition off it" signals Prue pointing over to the athame near a set of boxes. Phoebe nods her head and walks over to it, until the demon from before shimmers behind the athame and picks it up. Phoebe jumps back startled, but quickly jumps in the air and pulls her foot up, connecting with the athame sending it flying from the demons hand sending it into the air.
"Prue!" shouts Phoebe pointing to the athame. Prue looks over and waves her hand at the athame but towards her. The athame flies through the air towards Prue as she clutches it into her hand. Phoebe then forcefully kicks him in the stomach, sending him flying a few feet across the floor and hitting the cardboard boxes. It starts to shake and tip, before falling onto him. Phoebe stands ready with her fists up, as an energyball is sent flying out. Jessica quickly waves her hand and sends the energyball into nothingness.
"Nicely done" congratulates Prue, before throwing the athame at the demon, using her power for an extra kick. The demon quickly shimmers out the way as Phoebe turns around to look at Prue. However, the demon quickly shimmers in behind her, as Prue quickly waves her hand and sends the demon flying backwards, while using her other hand to point the athame up from the floor. The demon then falls on top of it, and screams with pain before bursting into flames.
"Right back at ya" laughs Jessica. Prue smiles at her as Phoebe runs over to the athame and picks it up.
"We could use this on Jetix, and some of his goons" nods Phoebe, until she is suddenly hit with a premonition. Phoebe closes her eyes, and gasps in as a shooting pain arrives into her body.
'Piper is seen at the altar looking at Jetix, and is seen mouthing "I do" crying. Jetix then kisses Piper, as her eyes flash a dark black, finally turning evil, before sending the athame into her stomach. Prue, Phoebe, Grams and Leo along with other witches are seen dead around the room. Piper gasps with pain as her powers are sucked out of her and into Jetix.'
Phoebe opens her eyes and gasps in shocked and emotional. Phoebe looks up unable to produce words. "What did you see?" asks Prue concerned. Phoebe slowly looks up, tears coming down her eyes.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
Previously…
'I hope so…I could not continue kissing Piper and lose her, or lose being a whitelighter…I know what I have to do though…I have to stay as a whitelighter…' thinks Leo.
"What's the matter?" asks Grams looking at Leo's serious deep in thought face. Leo shakes his head snapping out of his train of thought and just smiles at Grams. "Leo what's wrong? I can tell when people lie to me, and I hate being lied to now spill" controls Grams.
"It's nothing seriously" lies Leo, but before Grams could say anything more, Leo quickly orbs out of the attic. Leo remerges in Piper's room and stops for a slight second to gather everything in. He slowly looks around the room and then at Piper's bed and smiles. "I have to stay as a whitelighter…it's what I am, it's what I've known nearly my whole life…" says Leo to himself. Suddenly, the door opens and Prue walks in topless wearing her see-through bra.
"Leo!" screams Prue slamming the door and running back to her room. Phoebe curiously pokes her head out from her room, and whilst holding a white blouse over her breasts, she runs towards Prue's room and opens the door.
"Honey, is everything alright?" asks Phoebe entering the room, where Prue is seen sitting at the edge of her bed startled.
"Um, not quite" replies Prue trying to figure out something. Phoebe looks at her confused and closes the door. "Well, I went into Piper's room to get some clothes for her, because I thought she wouldn't want to wear that dress, and I caught Leo in her room, and I'm worried he may of saw some off limit areas" says Prue biting her lip. Phoebe eyes widen, as the door knocks.
"Hello?" asks Phoebe.
"I saw nothing" is all that is said from Leo.
"You sure?" asks Prue.
"Yea don't worry about it. When I went to turn, was when you slammed the door shut" assures Leo and Prue breaths a sigh of relief. "Wait! What were you doing in there?" asks Prue. On the other end of the door, Leo is caught off guard with the question and tries to think of an answer, until Grams runs down the stairs leading to the attic.
"Girls! Hurry!" yells Grams. Phoebe quickly puts on her blouse, while Prue grabs her black tank top and places it on her. The girls run out of the room, where Prue still finds it uncomfortable and awkward to be around Leo. Leo just rolls his eyes, as Phoebe stares at Grams waiting for what was up. "Alright, well some note magically appeared telling us that we need to round up some witches who are hiding in their houses from the storm." Replies Grams.
"How will we find them?" asks Prue.
"Phoebe's an empathy, so if she concentrates harder, she will sense a witch, hopefully" says Grams. Leo and rue nod their heads, until turning to Phoebe.
"What?" she asks.
"Can you do it?" asks Prue.
"I can try, I mean we need as many witches as possible, we need to save Piper" smiles Phoebe confident.
"Alright, you all go and I'll stay here, finishing off the potions" says Grams and everyone nods their heads. "Also, you better not orb encase there are some innocents who might see, but be quick before this storm properly starts up" informs Grams and everyone nods again, before Grams makes her way back to the attic.
"Alrighty then" chips Phoebe clapping her hands twice and makes her way towards the stairs. She turns around to see Prue following but Leo frozen in place. "Leo..? Leo what's wrong?" asks Phoebe concerned. Leo slowly looks up and faces the sisters.
"I'm just thinking of something, something that will change my life forever" replies Leo slightly worried. The girls look at each other confused.
-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-
In the underworld, Piper remains chained up, wiggling around to try and break free. "Trust me to try and break free" sighs Piper angrily. It was now about 2:46pm and Piper was getting restless. She knew the wedding was coming up and wanted somehow to get out. Piper was missing her sisters and Leo. To know that Andy was dead and Prue was distraught and that she wasn't there for her broke her heart. To not be there with Leo broke her heart. Her faith in being rescued was slowly emptying, and she was eventually facing the fact that she will be Mrs Jetix. It worried her because she knew she might go after her family and try to kill them, meaning one of the sides will have to be vanquished. The panel in the room opens up with dust flying around the ground. Billy then walks in with a smirk on his face, and tilts his head. Piper just stares at him coldly.
"Hello there, runaway bride" laughs Billy.
"I'm not a bride yet!" growls Piper looking at him fiercely. He raises his eyebrows impressed by her braveness.
"Brides should be happy the day of their wedding, and not depressed like you are, or angry which ever way you want to look at it. Piper just remains there looking into his eyes harshly. "Alright, well I was sent to tell you that the wedding begins in 3 hours so you better get ready…not that you can" says Billy laughing. Just then Jetix shimmers into the room, and Billy walks out as the panel closes. Jetix gets close to Piper and strokes his cheek against hers. She just stands still, shivering with anger as he brushes against her.
"You look lovely. Although your look even lovelier with that wedding dress on" he says romantically. Piper doesn't answer, as Jetix steps away from her and forcefully back hands her. As her face falls to one side, she uses all her strength to look back at him, through gritted teeth.
"My sisters will come, and vanquish your sorry arse" grills Piper.
"I can't be vanquished" smirks Jetix. Piper's ego and cockiness quickly fades as does her face. "Yea, you see as long as you are binded by that contract, I will live for eternity" says Jetix before shimmering out into laughter. Piper now stares glumly into space. Now she knew that all hope was lost and closes her eyes, finally accepting her new place as the bride to be. Her shield of trying to stay strong quickly fades as she begins to cry, her anger disappearing quickly. Her hope was lost, she was getting married to Jetix…if only she knew that her true love can end it and save her… A tear drops down to the floor, when a bright light fills the room. Piper quickly looks up, her hope quickly returning.
"Leo!" she beams, but it wasn't orbs she saw it was a bright white light. From out of it steps her mother, smiling at her innocently. Piper's eyes widen with surprise. This was the first time she has seen her mother since her death. "Mum…?" she asks puzzled.
"Hello my dear" she tells her, stroking her cheek with her hand. She wears a long white robe.
"You here to set me free?" asks Piper but Patty slowly shakes her head.
"Don't give up hope just yet my dear" smiles Patty stepping back into the light and disappearing.
"No! Mum come back! Please come back!" cries Piper. "Please come back mummy" cries Piper in a mere whisper.
