Chapter 13
"What's up Dad?" Poppy asked starting to get a little worried he heard the door bang downstairs and Paige and Piper chatting that meant they had come back! He needed to be quick
"Poppy I just I need to tell you this!" Kyle began she nodded
"You know how much I love you and how much I want to be here for you and your mum but the elders have made me into an elder and now I have to go up there"
"Why?" she protested
"I know it doesn't make sense and seems unfair but you can't fight it neither can your mum cause if you do you'll never move on with your lives, I'm not asking you to forget me Poppy just don't let me leaving ruin anyone's life"
"I don't want to grow up without you!" Poppy squeaked tears brimming from her eyes her dad hugged her
"What are you gonna tell mum?" Kyle shook his head
"I don't know I think I'm just going to leave she doesn't deserve to hear that I can't stay around anymore she doesn't deserve to hurt anymore neither of you do" Poppy hugged him tighter neither of them noticed Paige standing just outside of the room eyes full of tears
"But listen this wasn't Leo's fault he tried to stop it" he looked up towards the ceiling
"I have to go" he whispered Poppy shook her head he took her face in his hands
"Never ever think that any of this was your fault"
"I'll kill Leo for this" Poppy sniffled
"No you won't cause you know it wasn't his fault" Kyle told her
"They're calling again"
"Please daddy! Don't leave," she begged
"I'll always be looking over you and Paige I love you sweetheart," he told
"I love you too dad!" she told him and he orbed away Poppy orbed back to Wyatt Paige turned suddenly feeling as if his heart had just been torn out she stomped away looked for Leo she went into the kitchen
"Paige?" Piper asked Paige ignored her so Piper grabbed her elbow
"What's the matter sweetheart?" she asked Paige shook her head and swallowed
"Where's Leo?" she asked Piper replied
"He'll be back soon why?"
"Kyle's gone Piper something about it not being Leos fault he not coming back he's left me Piper" Paige sobbed Piper hugged her and lead her over to the chair
"Ssh hush baby its ok" she soothed Leo stepped into the room Piper turned
"Paige I am so sorry" he said she turned to face him
"Kyle says it wasn't your fault he was saying goodbye to Poppy he just left Leo what's going on"
Leo crossed the room and sat down
"Paige I've given up my powers I'm just a human now but they needed to replace me and out of spite they chose Kyle I tried to take it all back but they wouldn't let me" he to was crying now Piper stiffened
"If your not a whitelighter anymore and we haven't got any powers and Kyle's an elder how are we supposed to call for the kids" she asked Paige looked even more shocked at the fact that she's just lost her husband and best friend and now might not be able to get her sister or her child back not to mention her nephews all of this only made her sob harder
"POPPY! WYATT CHRIS!" she shouted to her surprised hey orbed in Wyatt and Chris pulling Phoebe in shim form on a large chain pulling both boys away Poppy looked completely heartbroken and didn't seem much interested in anything Wyatt was flicking his wrists at his aunt but she was fighting it off Piper eyed her son
"Phoebe!" the shim looked directly at her sister and Wyatt successfully froze her Chris threw his potion down nothing happened the boys breathed heavily Poppy sniffed sadly and then Phoebe unfroze she made a flying leap at Paige! Halfway through Paige locked eyes with her sisters beast form and Phoebe suddenly let out a roar of pain and she reformed back to human form and landed just before Paige she sat up slowly and looked at her sisters tears and hurt in her eyes and pulled her into a hug Piper hugged her boys then her niece and sat down with her on her knee soothing her Wyatt seemed moved by the way Phoebe had been forced to reject the poison by the fact that her sister was hurting he turned to face Chris and offered his hand Chris shook it an then Wyatt hugged him Chris flinched as if expecting Wyatt to make fun of him
"Love ya bro" Wyatt whispered
"Really?" Chris asked
"Really but just don't tell anyone!" Wyatt hissed they both grinned
Symplycharmed: I hope you liked that it felt right to end it there I think the story only has about ten more chapters maybe less and I'm unsure yet but I might leave Kyle up there as a kind of cliff hanger R&R tell me what you'd like me to do with him?
