Chapter 18

After much protest, Piper finally went back to her room to rest. She was heavily pregnant and as Paige had put it, all they needed was for her to go into premature labor right now. Paige and Phoebe had then dragged Seth, still in Chris' body, downstairs to explain what had happened.

He had simply told them that they had come back to recapture him and that the sisters must have scared them away. The sisters had given him a few sceptical looks, but seemed to buy the story all the same.

Now, he sat at the kitchen table with Phoebe while Paige had emptied the content of the potion cupboard onto the island and was currently making a new potion.

"What is up with the weather?" Paige asked, looking outside at the pouring rain. "It was sunny, like, five minutes ago."

"What are you doing?" Phoebe asked. She couldn't see what her sibling was doing, but she could hear the cling and clatter that she was making.

Paige looked up from what she was doing to answer her. "I'm fixing this family, starting with you."

"Me?" she questioned. "You're going to make me see?"

"Yeah," Paige nodded as she threw another handful into the pot. "Well, I figured it has to be a curse of some kind because Leo couldn't heal you. So, I'm making you a potion to weaken the curse enough for a spell to work. Then, voila! We'll have an all-seeing Phoebe again!"

"Yay!" Phoebe shouted. Sheer joy was written all other her face. "Wow, to see colours again, anything but black."

Seth barely stopped himself from bursting out laughing. These were the all powerful Charmed Ones that spread fear in demons everywhere? What a joke, he thought.

Paige threw her last ingredient into the potion, causing it to froth. She poured some into a vial and walked across the kitchen.

"It's ready," she stated. Then she pushed the vial into Phoebe's hand.

Taking the vial from her sister, she quickly downed the contents. She gave Paige the thumbs up, indicating she could recite the spell.

"Powers of the witches rise,
Course unseen across the skies,
Return her sight, give her back,
All that was taken from the attack."

The darkness that had enveloped Phoebe a few days ago slowly began to fade. A few fuzzy images swam into her vision.

"Did it work?" Seth asked. He didn't really care if it did. The potions he had thrown at them had merely been to distract them, so that they wouldn't find Chris' soul before her had a chance to steal his body. Now that he had his full powers, it wasn't a problem. When the time was right, the Charmed Ones would die. But not just yet.

"Yeah," she cried as she jumped out of her chair and hugged Paige. "Everything is kind of blurry though."

"Must have been one strong curse. I'm sure it should clear up, might take a while though," she replied shrugging her shoulders before playfully adding. "Maybe we should get you stronger glasses?"

"Ha ha," Phoebe smirked at her sister.

Paige just smiled in return. "Ok, one problem solved. Who's next? Leo, Piper or you?"

"Me?" Seth asked, slightly worried his cover may have just been blown.

"Your mother thinks you're acting a little weird," she told him. "And there's the whole disappearing thing too."

"I'm fine," he objected.

"Yeah, but you've been a bit quiet. Not your usual smart-alec self," Phoebe joked.

Glad that was all they were basing their concerns on he replied. "I'm fine, really. Just a bit shaken up."

"With good reason to be," Paige agreed. "Don't worry about it. Probably just Piper being a little hypersensitive."

Phoebe nodded. "Maybe we should try and fix Leo first. Since we don't know what's causing them to disappear and we didn't really have much luck last time we tried."

"What's wrong with Leo?" Seth asked confused. He had slipped the elder a potion to make him sick, but the witches had reversed it. He had seen him walking around perfectly fine.

"Well, 'genius' over there decided to use a spell to heal Leo, but it backfired," Paige said, as she gestured to her sister.

"Backfired?"

"Yeah, you now have two fathers," Paige smiled. "The spell kind of split him in half and only healed one half. The other one is asleep upstairs with your mother."

"Right, ok," he replied. "How you going to do to fix it?"

"First we need both Leos'," she said before yelling at the ceiling. "Leo!"

A few seconds later, he orbed into the kitchen.

"You called?"

"Yep. We thought that since no one in the family is in immediate harm at the moment, that we could maybe resolve a few other problems. Like, Phoebe's no longer blind, thanks to me."

Leo turned around to Phoebe, who nodded in agreement. "Still a bit blurry, but definitely better."

"And we're going to try and get you and your twin back together," she finished.

"I almost forgot about that. Had so many things on my mind. Ok, what do you need me to do?"

"Get the other you out of your bedroom without waking Piper. We finally managed to talk her into resting for a while."

Leo waved his arm at the ceiling, and they heard a faint sound of jingling bells.

"He's in the living room," he told them. They all followed him in to find the other Leo unconscious on the sofa.

"Now what?" Seth asked, curious as to what they were going to do.

"A spell," Paige said, which earned her a look from Phoebe.

"Another spell? Isn't that what got us in this mess in the first place?"

"Well a) your spell sucked and b) do you have a better idea?" she asked, but Phoebe remained silent. "Didn't think so. Ok, help me out here, Pheebs."

"I thought my spells sucked?" she retorted.

"You're usually quite good with the spells, so I'll let you try first."

"You're so generous," Phoebe replied sarcastically. After a few minutes of thought, she recited the spell.

"Elder of magic,
Child of light,
Heal him now,
Make things right."

A golden light glowed over Leo. Slowly he began to stir. The first thing he noticed when he was finally awake was his clone.

Looking to the sisters, he asked. "Erm…what's going on?"

"Long story," Paige said, as she took hold of one Leo and dragged him over to the other. "Right, now for my spell. A little something I prepared earlier."

"Consequences we did not see,
Return what is meant to be,
Now are two, once was one,
Let the spell be undone."

A blinding light flashed, causing them all to shield their eyes. When it disappeared, they were left with only one Leo.

"I'm a genius!" Paige declared. Seth merely rolled his eyes at the witch.

Meanwhile in Golden Gate Park…

The four stages of bereavement: Denial, Anger, Grief and Acceptance.

Casie had gone from anger to grief and then back to anger. Chris was currently trying to calm her down, but to no avail. They were alone in the park, both soaked to the skin by the pounding rain. But neither made a move to shelter themselves.

"I'm going to kill him, if it's the last thing I ever do," she spat as lightening crashed nearby.

"I understand…" he began.

"No, I don't think you do. He killed my mother!" She cried. "He's the reason I'm an orphan!"

Casie was barely containing herself from lashing out at Chris, despite the fact he was the only person she felt she could trust right now. But part of her was screaming inside that her mother's murderer, who she had been searching for her entire life was standing right in front of her.

"Yes, I do!" He shot back. "I lost my mother when I was fourteen!"

"What? But I've meet your mother?"

"Yeah, well, I forgot to mention that I'm from the future!" He replied in his usual sarcastic tone. "I'm sure you noticed she's pregnant. Well I'm the baby she's carrying."

Casie looked at him strangely, then let out a strained laugh. "Sure, why not. I'm a witch with magical powers. Why can't you be from the future?" she muttered darkly.

Forcing herself to breath, she tried to control her emotions. Not that it was going to help any. Her entire life, she had felt alone, lost and confused, all because of Seth. When she was younger, she had always dreamed of catching her mother's killer and seeing him put behind bars, thinking it was the only thing that could bring her closure. Now, she just wanted him dead.

Lightening streaked across the sky. Almost instantly, it was followed by a deafening rumble of thunder.

"What's going on?" she questioned, glancing around them.

The thought had occurred to him earlier, but he hadn't said anything. "I think we found your power."

"What?" Casie asked, slightly confused. "I did this?"

Chris nodded. It could be the only explanation, considering it was sunny not so long ago. Even weather in San Francisco didn't change like that. Now with the rain clouds, it was so dark you would have thought it was midnight, not midday.

"But no, I couldn't have. This can't be happening!" she cried, just as lightening struck a nearby tree, setting it on fire and causing them both jump in shock.

"Oh God, make it stop!" she pleaded.

"Me? It's your power, you have to stop it!" Chris yelled over the wind, which was growing in strength.

"But how? I don't know how!"

Another strike of lightening struck a mere twenty feet from where Chris was standing, demolishing a park bench.

"Holy shit! Are you trying to kill me?"

"I don't know how to make it stop! How do I make it stop?" Casie was getting hysterical, which, in turn, seemed to make the rain pound down harder and the wind picked up a few knots.

"Your power is tied to your emotions, so you have to calm down!"

"Calm down?" She shrieked at him. "You have got to be kidding me! The only way I'm going to calm is if Seth is dead. Know how we're going to kill him in the next five minutes? Preferably before we get stuck by lightening."

"Hey, I'm not the all-powerful Chris you seem to think I am!" he retorted.

"Ok, not helping."

"Sorry, right. Make you calm, make you happy."

Chris looked at her and a thought sprang into his mind. He didn't even know where it came from, and before he had a chance to rationalize it, he acted. He took a step forward, closing the distance between himself and Casie. Then, before she could question him, he kissed her.

Casie melted into his kiss. Around them, the rain got lighter and lighter, then it stopped. The dark rain clouds slowly dissipated, and the sun shone bright once again.

When he pulled back, she whispered. "That worked."

"Err…sorry…I didn't know what else to do," he muttered.

She stared at him, stunned. He had completely caught her off guard, but once she gathered her senses, she realised he was apologizing.

"It's ok," she replied, still slightly out of it.

Chris had always had this charm when it came to women. Piper had called it a gift; in view of the fact that he could usually sweet-talk his way into getting whatever he wanted. But when he had just kissed Casie, two feelings ran through him. One where he was embarrassed slightly, albeit not a usual feeling for him. The second was guilt, because he loved Bianca. Ok, they had had one rocky relationship but he loved her never the less. And although she was dead and he knew he had to move on. He still felt like he had betrayed her somehow.

Unsure of what to say next, he shoved his hands through his short black spiky hair, sending tiny droplets of water flying in all directions. Then he proceeded to squeeze some of the water out of his shirt.

Casie was watching Chris intently, and she noticed quickly that he was refusing to look at her. Although she'd only know him a short time, she quickly realized how much she liked him. When he had kissed her, she hadn't wanted it to end. She had gone through so much these past few days that she welcomed this happy feeling. But now he was acting strange and the paranoia in her kept thinking that maybe he didn't return her feelings. That he had only kissed her to calm her down and that was it.

"Now what?" she asked, breaking the awkward silence.

Pull yourself together, Halliwell, he thought. He finally looked her in the eyes, then replied. "I think a little revenge is on the menu."

"Couldn't have said it better myself," she agreed.

"And for that, we're going to need some ingredients to make a potion. Could probably get something to eat will we're there," he suggested. "'Cause I don't know about you, but I'm starving. Chinese sound good to you?"

"Chinese?"

"Yep," he replied. He hesitated for a second then took her arm and orbed out. "China town, here we come."
