True loves first kiss
Thank you all for your lovely reviews, they as usual mean allot to me. Well here is another chapter for my lovely and loyal readers. I hope you enjoy, so sit back and get ready for a brand new chapter.
Chapter 18: Revenge is better served dead
"Phoebe..?" repeats Prue stepping forward towards her. Phoebe forcefully snaps her arm backwards and throws the athame onto the ground. Once making contact, small sparks fly out of it, grinding across the cold concrete ground. It then slides under a dumpster, as Prue watches on confused. "What's wrong?"
"Phoebe, are you alright?" asks Leo. Just then, Jessica gasps in shocked and in horror. She grasps her hand over her mouth, her eyes wide. Prue and Leo turn their attention to what was going on. "What?" asks Leo. Suddenly a thump is heard from behind them, so Prue and Leo quickly turn their heads to find Phoebe on the floor, with a wound in her stomach, bleeding badly, a pool of blood under her.
"Phoebe!" yells Prue startled kneeling down beside her. Leo runs around and kneels near Phoebe's head, and places his hands just over Phoebe's stomach. A bright yellow light shines out from it, which quickly heals Phoebe. Phoebe breaths in suddenly, shooting up grasping for breath. "Phoebe what the hell happened here?" asks Prue.
"I…I, I had this premonition. That athame from before was used on Piper thanks to Jetix. He sucked all her powers while also killing her at the same time. But me, you, Leo and everyone else were around the chapel dead…Because I have empathy now, I guess I can also channel the emotions from them, and my premonitions are now stronger…I felt that athame go through my stomach, and then I had that wound" says Phoebe shaking. Leo and Prue pull up Phoebe as she tries to regain balance.
"What does this mean? We lose?" asks Jessica.
"No, it means we can change it. We just won't bring that athame and hopefully Piper won't get it used on her" says Prue.
"Alright, well we need to hurry" says Leo. The wind is now picking up hard. Dust from the street lifts off the ground, and swarms around the neighbourhood. The wind is heard whistling, trees are bending slightly from the power of the wind. It's now 2:30pm and the mother storm is now beginning.
"Good point! Alright we need to warn anyone on the streets, and hopefully pick up some witches" leads Prue.
"No! We can't now, the wind is too strong" warns Leo.
"Ok, so we just return to the manor, get those witches sent to us and then orb up to look out point, where the wind will be harder, forcing us to blow over the cliff?" asks Phoebe raising her eyebrows startled.
"I understand that, but we should be fine. The wedding should be beginning soon" says Leo checking his watch. "Its half past 2, and we can check the planets line up with this nifty gadget that I got, just never been able to use it until now" smiles Leo.
"Alrighty then, well I think we should get rolling" claps Prue twice. Just then a bin is seen blowing across the road. The group turn their attention, as the rubbish is thrown out from it. "Just not that extreme" laughs Prue. Leo quickly holds onto Jessica as she looks at him concerned.
"Don't worry, I'm a whitelighter. We're off to the manor" he says and she nods her head. Phoebe grabs Leo and Prue holds onto Phoebe, and turn into tiny orbs.

Piper is still chained to the wall. Exhausted and tired, Billy shimmers into the room, in front of Piper grinning at her. "Oh, you know this would all be easy if you didn't try and escape, and you know, be completely annoying" smirks Billy.
"Someone very special in my life came to pay me a visit earlier" says Piper. "She told me not to give up hope, which means that someone is coming to save me if you like it or not"
"That a fact?" asks Billy, his eyebrows raised cocky.
"Hey, I know why I'm being cocky…why are you?" Billy just looks at her with a smile, as Piper widens her eyes and raises her eyebrows. "Oh…" she says knowing her mistake. Billy then shimmers out, as Piper desperately tries to get free. "No! Get back here now!" screams Piper.
In the chapel, Jetix is all alone on the altar and looking around the place smiling. His freedom and cheerful-ness is short lived when Billy shimmers in just at the bottom of the altar. "What?" asks Jetix angrily.
"Well your little bride to be, has let something slip" replies Billy smiling.
"What might that be?" asks Jetix bored already.
"Someone close came to her, telling her not to give up hope, meaning the remaining charmed ones just might get here after all"
"Well, thank you for the news, but I'll deal with that little problem" says Jetix with an evil smirk. Billy nods his head and is about to shimmer out, "Now, in under, oh, say, an hour the planets are set to line up, and the guests as I've heard are on their way, so I would want you and Lux to greet them alright?" asks Jetix. Again, Billy nods his head and gets ready to shimmer out. "If you make them feel unwelcome, I will make sure you pay. You understand me?"
"Yes sir" nods Billy. Billy just stands there twiddling his thumbs, as if waiting for Jetix to say something else.
"You can go now"
"Oh, ok" says Billy giving a little nervous laughter at the end. He quickly shimmers out, with Jetix being left to bask in the area that he's in.
"This time, I won't fail" he says to himself. "It's time to do something I've never done in a long time" he says to him self all serious, with slight concern in his tone.

At the hospital in San Francisco, it's a busy time as people are wheeled in injured from the storm brewing up. Darryl is in one room with a nurse, who is checking his heart beat. "Alright, well everything is alright here. But what actually happened?.. If you don't mind me asking" asks the nurse.
"Oh nothing" laughs Darryl. The nurse nods her head in respect and walks out the room, as Brody walks in looking at Darryl emotional. His head has a bandage around it, and he has a sling on his right arm.
"Hey man. I'm sorry about Adam, I really am" says Brody.
"I know, and thank you. That means allot. But why are you here?" asks Darryl. With a slight hesitation, Brody answers his question.
"Well I've been asked to question you about what happened. I mean, there was me who broke my arm, got a concussion, and Adam who…you know, then there was you who was perfectly fine…with your side of the door ripped off its hinges. Then yet again, there was a large hole through it, and a pole not so far from it. Darryl what happened?" quizzes Brody curiously.
'What am I suppose to say? I mean do I reveal the Halliwell's secret, exposing them and possibly killing them, or keep it a secret?' thinks Darryl worried.
"Well?" presses on Brody.
"I don't know, I mean first I was driving after you, then I heard a crash, so I went to see what happened to you, stopped the car when suddenly it went all dark" lies Darryl, choosing the right decision. Brody raises his eyebrows at Darryl, unimpressed by his statement.
"Well be that the case, I'm not letting you off this case" says Brody. Brody turns around and heads for the door until he stops. "By the way, you wouldn't have had anything to do with the flat tier I received do you?" asks Brody.
"No" replies Darryl sharply. Brody nods his head and walks out, as Darryl pulls out a picture of Adam. He smiles emotionally, his eyes welling up with tears. One tear drop rolls down his check, and splashes onto the picture. "I'm sorry I couldn't save you" he says in a mere whisper.
-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-
The group finally orb into the living room, looking around for any signs of witches. Just then, a skinny pale man, with blond hair and green eyes comes running down the stairs frustrated. "Finally!" he yells. The group spin around, Prue steps in front of the group.
"Who the hell are you?" demands Prue, twitching her arm ready to use her power on him just encase.
"I'm a witch, or an innocent which ever way you look at it" he replies, and Prue slowly releases her tensed arm. "Listen, the others are up stairs… Get down here, they arrived!" yells the man. When he reaches the bottom of the stairs, 8 women and 5 other men come running down the stairs all enthusiastic. One woman, she's tiny with short brown hair and hazel eyes, steps near the sisters.
"It is an honour" she smiles, shyly.
"Aw, that's sweet" beams Phoebe. The rest of the group enter the living room and stare in awe at Prue, Phoebe and Leo.
"Ok well as much as this is great, we need to get ready. Wait, where's Grams?" asks Prue looking around.
"Right here" pipes in Grams, walking down the stairs with the three bags full of potions, firmly tied to her belt.
"They all we got?" asks Prue. As soon as it left her mouth, the witches pull out three potions of their own. Prue lets out a surprised laugh, as Leo steps between the two groups.
"Alright, this is going to be a fight like no other alright. This isn't your typical outing; we are going against some powerful demons and warlocks. We need a plan, one that will work, and won't blow up in our faces" commands Leo.
"Alright, well obviously, it must be to separate the demons away from Jetix, so no one is there to protect him right?" ponders Jessica.
"Right, then it's mine and Phoebe's job to get Jetix away" says Prue.
"Then it's my job to get to Piper are save her" smiles Leo, and Prue nods her head.
"But it's not that simple, I mean…you know what I saw in my premonition, and so obviously we made this plan, and something went wrong" says Phoebe sternly letting Prue understand.
"Yes, but this time we have the upper hand, we haven't got the athame, so I think we're safe…I hope" says Prue biting her lip. Just then, the male witch from before notices something behind the sisters in the conservatory, and his eyes widen with shock.
"Ur, guys…"
"Right but we must do something wrong, that gets us…you know" says Phoebe.
"I don't see why though, I mean it's a well oiled plan" says Prue.
"Guys…" repeats the witch.
"What is it?" asks Leo.
"Demon!" he yells pointing behind the sisters. As the sisters turn, same with everyone else, a demon dressed in pure black with a mask to boot is crawling on the walls and the glass, but you can just about see him, as if he was in liquid form.
"Oh my!" shouts Phoebe stunned. Just then, he becomes visible, as a huge red sticky tongue flies out of his mouth. "Whoa!" screams Phoebe flipping out the way. Prue grabs Jessica and pulls her down to the ground with her, as other witches dive out the way from the tongue. Prue looks over and waves her hand, sending the crawler demon flying across the room, and smashing into the wall near the dining room.
"Jetix must no something! Everyone upstairs!" yells Prue.
"We have to help you" yells the small witch.
"Leo!" yells Prue sternly.
"Alright, follow her instructions, come on everyone upstairs!" signals Leo sending them upstairs. Just then another crawler demon comes down the wall of the stairs, until becoming visible wearing exactly like the last one, only this time it's red.
"Ah!" yells one of the male witches, clicking his fingers and produces an athame in his hands. He digs it into the back of the demon, who screams with pain, before bursting into flames, while sending a huge energy wave outwards, knocking everyone, through the banister and onto the floor. Phoebe runs into the conservatory, as the demon lunges towards her, opening his mouth and sending a flame wheel at her. Phoebe stands firm, but the pain in the other witches becomes too much, as she falls to the floor in pain. Prue steps in, just as the flame wheel reaches her. Once it connects on her, Prue is sent flying backwards, smashing through the wall leading into the foyer, burnt all over her body.
"Prue!" screams Phoebe, standing up horrified. The crawler turns around to look at Phoebe, and sends his tongue at her again. It hits Phoebe hard in the stomach, sending her flying backwards, and smashing through the dining room table, with blood slowly seeping out from her head. Leo notices and runs towards Phoebe, and puts his hands over her, quickly healing her. The crawler demon quickly jumps on the walls and crawls over towards Leo. He then opens its mouth, and sends a powerful fire blast towards Leo.
"No!" yells the small witch, jumping forward in front of it, getting incinerated. Leo turns terrified after healing Phoebe, just as the tongue is sent at him. When hitting him, Leo flies backwards, smashing through the wardrobe and then through the wall and into the kitchen knocked out. Phoebe gets up terrified as the demon looks at her fiercely. Before he can do anything, an athame is thrown at it bursting it into flames, producing the energy wave knocking Phoebe down, who falls onto a thick piece of glass, which pierces through her stomach, and out the other end. Phoebe gasps in with shock and pain, as her head slowly falls onto the floor. The male witch from before staggers up and runs towards Prue, kneeling beside her. She is barely breathing, gasping for breath.
"Tell my sister…I love her" she staggers, before closing her eyes and taking her final breath. The male witch's eyes widen with horror, before they water up and a tear drops down on Prue's dead body…
Jetix is seen standing in the middle of the manor, invisible from everyone else and a huge smile creeps up on his face, before he flashes away.
To be continued…
