Charmed:

Fan fiction: The End Is Only The Beginning I Season 7

Characters: Piper, Paige, Phoebe, Leo, Sam (Elder), Barbas and Alan (New character)

It was five weeks later after baby Chris was born. Piper was busy taking care of her two sons and working at the same time. She was busy with her sons, P3 and the demons that were after Wyatt. Because of that she never had the chance to talk or even to see Leo. Wyatt obviously misses his dad and Piper noticed it, but she didn't want to call on Leo because of what he was going through. Leo having known for killing Gideon (an elder) and also his mentor was having a break down emotionally and mentally. He knew that Barbas helped Gideon and he was devastated and eager to kill Barbas. His anger, rage and fear of his sons' safety began after the future Chris was killed. For the last couple of weeks Leo was tracking and chasing Barbas, but Barbas tends to escape from him.

Piper is now sitting at the kitchen making breakfast and also looking after of her sons. Then a demon appeared behind right beside Wyatt. Wyatt then immediately raises his shield and repelled the demon. The demon was thrown towards the wall. Piper was shocked and surprised considering that it was eight thirty in the morning. Just before the demon got up, Paige and Phoebe arrived and Paige orbed a stool and hit the demon's head. Phoebe ran and took baby Chris and Wyatt, while Piper ran towards the demon and vanquished it.

" Thank God!"' Shouted Piper. " That was too close! A demon just appeared behind my back while I'm cooking. I seriously can't do this anymore." Piper sat down and becoming very emotional at the moment. "I'm a single mother who have two little kids to raise and a job! I barely have time to sleep and not to mention demons to take care with."

Phoebe sat beside her and gave her a hug and said: "You know what maybe you should call Leo. He hasn't seen them for a long time and we can tell how much Wyatt misses his daddy." Then Paige stepped in and said: " Piper! Just call Leo. He's the father of these two kids too. It's his responsibility too. He needs to be with his sons!"

Piper seemed reluctant and disturbed by the topic of asking Leo to come back. Piper faced Paige and said: "I don't wanto call him. He's still having an emotional break down and I think he deserves some peace to figure out about what he should do." Phoebe interrupted: "But he can't hide from you guys forever you know! Just because he's got issues that doesn't mean you don't too Piper. Gideon screwed him so? I mean Gideon definitely screwed your life too. You can't just take all the responsibility on your own." Paige joined in hold baby Chris and said: " I agree, we are calling Leo!" Piper stood up in front of Paige and yelled: "No! You're not calling". The rebellious Paige said: " Oh try and stop me. LEO!"

Then Leo orbed and appeared in front of the girls. He looked around the surroundings realized the damage from the fight. He looked anxious and asked: " What happened?" Paige stepped up to him filling him with the most recent news and said: " Well while you were wandering away for the past few weeks, Piper was having a hard time taking care of the kids and to work also. Today just a while ago a demon attacked." Leo shouted: " What? Where is he? What about Chris and Wyatt?"

Phoebe answered: " Don't worry they're okay, Piper vanquished him before he could get up. But still you have to see your sons. Piper can't do it on her own and obviously Paige and I can't always be around to protect them. We are not their parents, Leo it's your responsibility and your problem."

Leo replied: " I know, that's why I'm vanquishing demons that are threats to Chris and Wyatt. These few weeks."

Piper said: " Leo, What these kids need is not a father that kills demons on daily basis twenty four hours a day, but a father. They already don't have a normal life because of demons and magic. Please! What they need is you and Wyatt missed you." Piper took Wyatt and Wyatt walked over to Leo. Leo looking at Wyatt and Chris feeling guilty and took Wyatt.

" Piper, I know but I need to kill Barbas! He killed Chris"

Piper interrupted: " Leo, Chris is not dead, he's here."

" That doesn't mean that won't happen in the future. With Barbas on the lose. Look vanquishing Barbas is important and I won't stop until I find him and kill him. I won't let this happen to my sons again. I'm sorry. I promise once it's over I'll be here" Leo gave Wyatt to Paige and orbed out.

" Well that was just interesting." Paige and her sarcasm.

Piper finished making the breakfast and put the plates on the table. Phoebe and Paige helped to straighten up the mess and then starts eating.

While the girls are eating, Leo orbed back to the underworld looking for Barbas. He searched almost everywhere and his patience was lacking. He began vanquishing demons when he sees one. Despite of being restless and reluctant to face his sons, he also deliberately ignored the call from the elders. Then a white lighter appeared. The white lighter is about six feet tall, brown hair and quite good looking.

"Leo, the elders are looking for you. They say that they sensed that there's a demon attacking mortals at a public school. They need you to get the charmed ones to try to save them and to stop the exposure." said the white lighter.

" I'm busy!" shouted Leo. " Leave me alone, I have something to deal with."

" Leo I know that you are an elder and with all due respect, I know I shouldn't be questioning your judgment but…"

" Then don't! you know nothing! You know how it's like to see your son died in front of you and not knowing when your sons being attack by demons." yelled Leo. Leo is becoming very emotional and out of control. He pushed the white lighter Eric to the wall.

" Leo please! I'm sorry, but you have to control yourself." pleaded the Eric.

While Leo is unable to control himself, Barbas is actually close by Leo seeing this. Then he realize that now is a good time to tempt Leo to kill a white lighter, so that he would be in trouble. The elders wouldn't trust him anymore and it'll be harder for him to protect the charmed ones. Barbas used his powers and tapped into Leo's mind and begin the temptation.

"Leo!" said Barbas. " Kill this white lighter. What if he's sent by another elder to kill Wyatt and Chris? You can't trust anyone these days. If Gideon can be evil any elder can."

"NO!" shouted Leo. " I can't do this anymore. He didn't do anything. There's no reason that I should I kill him."

Eric standing by the wall baffled and worried asked: " Leo, are you okay? Why are you talking to yourself? Do you want to see the elders?"

" You see! Leo! He is sent by an elder, he could be a threat. Remember the elder you trust the most, he betrayed you Leo."

Leo looked at Eric furiously and shouted: " Who sent you?"

Eric looked baffled and replied: " Well an elder, Sam."

Then Leo looked like that he woke up from a nightmare. He looked at Eric closely and Barbas tempt him again. " You see! He even admits it. The elders wants you distracted so that this white lighter can kill Wyatt." said Barbas.

Leo in fury looked at Eric and yelled: "No one can hurt my son!" Then he raised his hands and shot electricity and to electrocute Eric. Eric is shouting in agony and pleading to Leo to stop.

" Leo! ahhhh! What are you doing?" yelled Eric.

At the same time an elder orbed down suddenly and is very surprised by what Leo is doing. He ran towards Leo and stopped him.

The elder Sam one Leo's best friends shouted: " What the hell were you doing? He's a white lighter. He's on our side."

Then Sam walked over to Eric and helped him up. He told Eric to orb to the sisters and ask them to deal with the demon attacking the mortals at school. Afterwards Sam walked over to Leo, who was still confused and shaken up. He walked up to Leo and said: " Leo! Please calm down. I know what you're going through. I know that feel unsafe because of what Gideon did, but just because Gideon did the wrong thing doesn't mean each and everyone of us will become evil."

" You sure?" Questioned Leo. " Because I'm not sure anymore. I don't care anymore, the only thing that I care is my family!"

Sam then got mad and said: " I don't care if you kill me right now Leo. Even if you kill me, you're still my best friend. But, if the elders know you are going to be recycled. What good is for you and your family if you are recycled? You know perfectly it is Barbas that's playing a trick on you and you almost fell for it. You are an elder! Leo! I know you have issues with your family, but you also have responsibilities of the other mortals too."

"I'm sorry" apologized Leo. " It's just that it's getting hard to trust people anymore and I'm scared of losing my son again."

" Trust me!" said Sam with a confident tone. " I'm well sure your wife and her sisters will protect your children. They are in good hands, your sons have got their mom, aunts and you protecting them."

" You're right" signed Leo who just took a deep breath. "I'm sorry."

"You have to be careful, Leo. This isn't the first time you let Barbas get to you, you have to control your temper. Just let it go."

" I'll try, okay I'll go to fix thing with the school." said Leo as he orbed back to the Manor.

The Manor

While Sam and Leo were talking Eric orbed to the manor already to tell the girls about the demon attacking a middle school. He orbed in front of the girls. The girls are obviously astonished, not because that someone appeared, but because of his attire. His clothing was filthy from Leo's attack.

Phoebe looked at him and said: " Oh my goodness! What happened to you?"

Eric looked at Piper and said: " Um your husband just tried to kill me."

Piper's eyes and mouth are opened wide and asked: " What do you mean? Leo just tried to kill you?"

Eric replied: "Barbas got to Leo, but don't worry an elder stopped him in time and I wont' tell any one."

" Thank you and I'm sorry." apologized Piper.

" Wait! I'm not here to tell you this. There's a demon attack students here in San Francisco."

" But why? I thought demons only attacked witches right?" asked Paige.

Piper said: " Maybe there's a witch at that school."

" Guys, I would really like to go with you, but I'm like super late for work. You think you can do this without me?" asked Phoebe rushing to put her shoes on.

" Yeah, don't worry just go." said Piper. Then Phoebe said thanks and left immediately. " But my kids."

Leo orbed back. " Hey there's a demon attacking students." Then he saw Eric and he smiled nervously. He walked to Eric and apologized: " Sorry back there, I was influenced by Barbas."

" It's okay don't worry about it. Um you mind if I take your kids to magic school? Or you want to do it yourself." Asked Eric.

" No you can take them, I trust you." said Leo. Eric took Wyatt and baby Chris and orbed to magic school. " Paige, Piper we have to go now!" He took their hands and orbed to the school.

When they arrived they immediately ran into the school trying to find the demon or the students and teachers. Then a fireball was thrown towards Piper, but fortunately Paige orbed the fireball away. The demon saw Piper and he got scared and left. The strange was that it was too quiet. There's no screaming, and no running. All three of them were getting suspicious and worried.

"What if this is some sort of trap to kill us?" asked Paige. " I mean this has happened before."

Before Paige could say another word, Piper interrupted her and pointed at a classroom. Everyone were frozen, actually the whole school was froze.

"Who did this? I mean besides Piper?" asked Paige.

" I don't know, but how ever did this is damn powerful." answered Leo. " Stick together. Paige stay with Piper and I'll go and look for the demon somewhere else. Call me if you're in trouble."

Leo walked to different parts of the school and everyone was the same. They were all frozen and stiff, just like Piper's powers. He was getting worried with a demon that is so powerful having a power that is similar to one of the charmed ones. He then became wary and careful as he walked through the hallways and classrooms. Then he walked into a chemistry lab. The room was deserted and empty. Leo went into the lab to see if anyone was there: "Hello? Anyone here? It's okay I'm here to help." Leo sensed that something or someone was behind him and before he could turn around a metal rod hit him and he fell on the ground.

Piper and Paige were walking around the school trying to find clues of what caused this phenomenon. Paige said: " You know this is just so suspicious to me. I mean why would demons want to attack students on broad daylight with tones of mortals roaming around in school. This just doesn't make sense."

"Yeah, I think this is weird too. What if they are after something from someone here?" replied Piper.

" Whatever that thing these demons are looking for, this thing must be damn important."

Paige and Piper were actually close to the chemistry lab that Leo went into. Back to the lab, Leo was just attacked by a metal rod. He fell on the floor. He rubbed his head and stood up immediately ready to attack, but then he realized that he wasn't attacked by a demon but a kid. The kid was Asian about 5 feet 5. The kid was obviously scared. He held up the metal rod that he attacked Leo and faced him. Leo exhaled and explained: " Don't worry, it's okay. I'm here to help. Just calm down and tell me what happened."

The Asian boy wouldn't let go of the rod and kept staring at Leo. It looks like he was getting ready to attack. The boy said: " Why should I trust you? That man just a while ago said he's here to help and I was almost choke to death."

Before Leo or the kid could say another word, a demon appeared suddenly besides the kid and pushed him on the floor. The demon shouted: " Where did you hide it?" The child who had no idea what the demon talked about responded: "Hide what? What are you talking about?" The kid was crying considering that he's only a kid. Before the demon could do anything more to the kid, he shot out electricity and expelled the demon to the wall. Then Leo immediately ran to the Asian kid and helped him up. The demon that was knocked to the wall stood up and it turns out that the demon has telekinesis and threw Leo to the blackboard.

Two demons then appeared besides Leo attacked him. One of them had Leo in an arm lock and the other one punched him hard in the stomach. Leo (screaming in agony): Ahhh! (as he got punched again in the stomach) Run now! It seems that the demons didn't really have any powers. They just kept beating Leo up. Leo couldn't really fight back and he got hit in the stomach for probably like ten times. The kid did what he was told, he ran straight to the door, but the demon that Leo fought earlier blocked him and asked: " Your last chance kid. Where did you hide the bracelet? Give it to me and I'll spare your life." The kid asked: " What bracelet? What the hell are you talking about?"

Paige and Piper who were just near by heard the noise coming from the lab. They immediately ran to the lab to check what was going on. When the girls got inside the lab, Leo finally escaped from the demon's arm lock and vanquished both demons at the same time. But, unfortunately he was injured quite badly too. He abdomen and his face were injured. The demon used his power and threw the kid to Leo's side and Leo caught him just before he hit the wall. Before the demon could attack Piper and Paige, Piper raised her hands and attempt to vanquish him. But, the demon didn't blow up. The demon was just thrown to the benches near by and injured. When Piper was about to attack again the demon got scared and left.

Piper and Paige immediately ran to Leo. Piper anxious and worried asked: " Oh my goodness! Leo, you okay?" She and Paige helped Leo and the kid to stand up. Then Leo replied: " It's okay, we're okay. He's just shaken up." Leo faced the kid and asked gently: " Are you hurt? Are you okay?"

The kid who just experienced the ordeal had tears in his eyes and ran into Leo's arms. He cried loudly but he didn't care. He was too scared, he was almost killed by the demon he had the right to cry. Anyone would have cried. Leo wrapped his arms around the kid and reassured him and said: "Don't worry, everything is going to be fine."

Piper said: " Let's just get out of here." Paige asked: "But what about these people? We can't just leave them frozen." Then Piper raised her hands and unfreezes the whole school. Her magic worked and everyone in the school were mobilized. Paige orbed them back to the manor.

The Manor.

The kid was still frightened and wouldn't let go of Leo. He eventually let go and asked: " What just happened? I mean who are those people and what did you just do? How come we were at school then here?" It was apparently too much for a kid to take in for the past 20 minutes.

Piper went to the kitchen and got some hot tea for the kid. Paige went to the attic and tries to find out what the demons were after. The frightened young child drank the hot tea and calmed down.

" Right, I feel better now thanks." Said the kid.

" By the way we didn't really introduce yet." Said Phoebe. " I'm Phoebe and this is Leo and Piper. Paige is our little sister and she's upstairs."

" Err well, I'm Alan Chan and I'm 12 years old.," said Alan. " But can someone tell me what the hell happened back there?"

" You were attacked by Demons." Leo answered.

" Demons?" Shrieked Alan. " Okay is this some kind of game show or something because I don't have the mood for this. There's no such thing as magic, Demons or what so ever. But, how did you do that? You know moving from one place to another."

" That's call orbing." Paige just orbed in front of Alan from the attic.

" Believe it there are such thing as magic." Explained Piper. " So found anything?"

" Yes, but it just sounds so weird." Replied Paige.

" Tell me something that's not weird." said Phoebe in a sarcastic tone.

" True, the demons that we just encountered were upper level demons. They belong to this tribe or gang called The Sacrons. They basically do whoever hired them to do, mostly kill or steal some magic item. But, I don't see a connection to this. I mean he's not magical."

" Are any of you relatives magical, Witches, demons? Familiar?" Asked Leo.

" No, I just found out there are such things as magic."

"We're getting nowhere, but we need to call your parents and tell them you'll be here so that we can protect you. So, what are their numbers?" asked Piper.

"They're dead." replied Alan.

" Err Oh my." said Piper. Phoebe opened her eyes and said: " Oh I'm so sorry."

"What happened?" asked Paige.

"Well, my mother died when I was 7 and my stepfather died just like one week ago. I still misses him a lot he treated me as his own son." Alan started crying.

" So who's taking care of you now?" asked Leo.

" My grandma she lives like somewhere nearby the school." answered Alan. " My stuff is there too."

Leo and Phoebe volunteered to take Alan's belongings and to also explain the situation to Alan's remaining family member. They follow with Alan orbed to Alan's Grandma Lily's front door. Then they heard a lot of commotion and noises like the breaking of furniture and got worried.

"The door's unlocked." Said Phoebe. She opened the door and saw two demons attacking an old Caucasian lady. When the demons saw Phoebe and Leo, they threw energy balls at them, but Leo orbed them away immediately. They then reappeared at the other side of the room beside Aunt Lily.

Alan who was still shocked asked: " Gramps are you okay?"

Alan's grandmother asked him to take his stuff and leave before the demons get to him, which was strange to Alan because he just realized that his grandma is involve with magic. The two demons threw another energy balls aiming at Alan. Alan's grandma raised her hands and the energy balls returned to the demons and vanquished them.

Before Leo and Phoebe could ask another question, a demon appeared behind Alan's grandma and killed her with a fireball. Alan was surprised and screamed. Leo immediately vanquished the demon. Alan cried and sat beside his grandma.

" No! Why? She's my only relative left." Cried Alan.

Alan's grandma who's still breathing said to Alan: " Take the bracelet, hide it … Don't.. let.. those .. demons …get .. it.." After saying her last words. She passed away.

Knowing that Alan might have an emotion breakdown Phoebe sat beside Alan, but Leo was afraid that the demon would come back. He took Alan's belongings and then orbed them back to the manor.

The manor.

Piper spotted them and asked: " What took you guys so long? Have you told his grandma yet?"

Phoebe then walked towards Piper and pulled her away to the kitchen, leaving Leo and Alan alone at the living room. Piper said: " Why are you pushing me to the kitchen."

Phoebe: " Alan's grandma just got killed by a demon."

Piper: " Oh no. Poor guy, he had so much to deal with in one day. I mean he suddenly found out that some demon gang is after him, magic exists and his remaining relative just died. And we think magic screwed us."

Phoebe: "Leo's trying to talk to him, you know."

Piper: Don't worry, He's good at that. We however should worry about the demons."

Back at the living room Leo was trying to make Alan feel better by talking to him. Alan asked many questions about where people will go after death. He seemed fascinated and he was taken this death thing quite calm.

Leo: " Are you sure you're okay? I mean if you want to cry you can I'm here.'

Alan: " I have seen enough death already. I'm probably use to this by now. I just can't do this anymore. Anyways ." He went to his bags and took out a box and gave it to Leo.

Leo: "What's in it?"

Alan: " I think this is what the demons or whatever you call them are looking for. My grandma asked me to leave it in good hands."

Paige orbed back to the manor from magic school with Wyatt and Chris. Piper and Phoebe walked to the living room filling Paige with the most recent info.

Phoebe looked at the box and opened it: "Wow, the bracelet is pretty." She reached out her hand trying to put it on." The bracelet was very special and unique. There's a ring and its attached with the bracelet by a chain.

Alan stopped her and said: " Don't!"

Phoebe apologized: "Sorry, I mean I should have asked you."

Alan: No it's just that my gramps kept saying this bracelet is cursed so….

Piper: Maybe you should check with the elders.

Leo was shocked and said: "Are you crazy? I don't want to go back up there anymore."

Piper who seems to be annoyed said: "You have to deal with this anyways. It's your problem and you have to fix it now go and take the bracelet". Then when Leo planned to take the bracelet to the elders the demon that attacked Alan in the school appeared. Piper raised her hands planning to vanquish the demon, but the demon was faster he moved his arm and the everyone were thrown against the wall except Alan and Phoebe. The demon used his telekinesis and moved the bracelet to his hands. A few more demons appeared afterwards grabbing Phoebe and Alan and disappeared.
