Ravenix – It's okay, I've been busy as well, that's why I haven't been updating this as quickly as usual! And I don't know if Lewis will return!

Aniaka – Heh… Doesn't Piper just suit the "I told you so," really well? Of course she would have enjoyed it, being the oldest it would have been a challenge for her! I know, I though I needed something cute instead of him screaming and raising shields all the time! (PS: Thanks for your support, everything's going awol at the moment and it makes me feel good to know that I'm bringing some happiness into people's lives)

Phoebe turner – (Holds hands up) I didn't promise anything! But don't give up hope and be patient!

Prince Halliwell – Lol, I though I would put I bit of normality in it! Thanks, I think feraltongue was a god name for him! And yes, they're Aidan's, and she might have found it, but we both know that Paige doesn't exactly do housework and snoop around everything trying to clean it ;)

Piperfairy – Well, she can't wait for him to come back, she needs to move on. And the nest chapter will reveal more about the annoying demon lol! Thanks! I'm so glad you like them as a couple! That's how all this began, me thinking they were a good couple!

Princess Pinky – Ugh… FFN can be so annoying sometimes! Lol, I was playing the pizza scene out in my head as I wrote it! You miss Pam, huh? Don't worry ;) LOL! I always get strange looks on the bus, mainly because I sing out of key to the songs in my MP3 player!

Unique deflection – Phew… I though I might have offended you or something, but I'm glad I could help! And Connor will get some of his mother's powers, but since he's a male, he's more likely to have powers from Brennan. And the twins are being born VERY soon! It's not going to be as dragged out as Phoebe's pregnancy!

Peanut2lb – I know you reviewed half way through the last story, but I thought I'd reply here! I hope you can understand Princess Pinky's crossover better now, and Prue/Andy are amazing! It's amazing that the writers made such an adored couple within only one season! I hope you keep reading my work! I'm halfway through "Charmed in the Afterlife" right now!

Hole In One

"Are you sure it's okay that we go?" moved a suitcase into the pile that was next to her and Brennan. Connor sat in his fathers arms silently as he watched his Aunt Piper and Uncle Leo smirked at his mother.

"Phoebe, we survived without you for a year and a half, we can get through a week without your endless power and infinite wisdom…" Piper mocked.

The middle sister smiled wryly, "Very funny, just make sure you call me if you need me…" Piper rolled her eyes, "Okay, we'll get out of your face get on our way…"

"See what I have to live with?" Brennan added with a wink as Phoebe came back down from Connor's nursery holding a cuddly dinosaur, "It's his favourite!" She beamed and handed it to her son; he took it and waved it about wildly.

"Okay, ready!" She huddled with her family and Leo made a gesture at them, making the Mulwrays disappear in a swirl of orbs. Piper put a deep breath looked around her sister's house, smiling at the swirling grand fixtures that went along the rim of the ceiling.

"What's wrong?" Leo asked her, knowing that something was bothering her.

Piper put her hands in her pockets and turned around, "Do you ever think about us getting a place like this?"

"What? Don't you like living in the Manor?" Leo frowned.

"No, of course I do. I love being to close to Emma and Pamela, having two… well, one babysitter in the house helps," The Elder smiled at her, "But I sometimes think that we've never really moved on! Paige and Phoebe have moved out and fell in love, and even though it went pear shaped for Paige, I still admire her in some way…"

"Well…" Leo walked closer to her, "You are the oldest sister, and you were the first one to have a child. Your sisters just think of the house as yours," He explained.

"I know… Anyway, I'm going to Paige's, you coming?" She asked.

"No, I have to go talk to the other Elders, they're sensing something on the horizon," he replied.

"Ugh… If it's something on top of the Nameless One, then I'm going to have a breakdown," Piper groaned as she leaned her forehead on his chest, "Okay, orb me home before you go, I'm driving to Paige's then we're going to see Pam,"

Leo backed away and gestured at his wife, she smiled before she orbed out, Leo following suit…

Allison Mulwray, better known as Ally, walked out of the laundry and made her way back to the kitchen, glancing at the playing children in the living room before continuing towards the kitchen. She gasped when orbs began to fill the air in front of her, raising her hands instinctively to attack, a jet of water flew from her palm as Phoebe and Brennan materialized. Brennan quickly put up a disc of impenetrable energy, letting the water bounce off it and disappear as soon as it hit the floor.

"You a little edgy, sis? You almost drowned your nephew!" Brennan exclaimed.

Ally put her hands over her mouth before running them through her hair, "Oh my God! I'm sorry, you guys! I've just been a little jumpy lately," She explained before breaking out into a massive grin, "Is this the little boy I've been hearing so much about?"

"Yeah," Brennan jiggled his son while he was balanced on his hip, "This is Connor,"

Ally raised her eyebrows as she took her nephew from his father, "Connor, huh? Aptly named if I say so myself. Hey," She touched his nose delicately.

"Where's Mom?"

"Upstairs getting your rooms ready, she's been doing anything to get her mind off the fact that Nelle's missing,"

"She's missing?" Phoebe frowned, she didn't mean to play favourites, but Nelle was the Mulwray sister that she had bonded with the most last time she was here.

"Yeah…" Ally began with a low voice, "She went on a demon patrol yesterday morning and hasn't came back. Sandra is leading some people around, trying to find her,"

"Is it possible she's just stayed out?"

"No. Firstly, Nelle always comes back before lunch if she doesn't, she contacts us. Neither thing has happened,"

A tornado began to appear next to Ally and Sandra appeared within it, her hair was askew and she stumbled slightly before regaining her balance, "Hey! Damn, I love this new power!" She said triumphantly.

"But you didn't find her…" Ally pointed out to her little sister.

"Well… No, but I did cover a lot of ground in a small amount of time so we will!" Sandra noticed the six month old child in her sister's arms, "Did someone leave him on our doorstep?"

"Yes, they also left themselves and some luggage!" Ally grabbed her sister's chin and turned her head towards Brennan and Phoebe.

"Oh! Hey guys! Sorry, I forgot you were coming! This must be my new nephew!" She said in a baby voice while tickling Connor.

Phoebe tapped her husband on the shoulder, "I'll leave you to it." She kissed him on the cheek and picked up her own suitcase, and slowly began to climb the stairs…

Paige folded a pair of jeans that had faded knees and put them in the pile of jeans that sitting on her bed. The entire bed was covered with different mounds of clothes, t-shirts, boxers, socks, sweaters, there were only a couple pairs of shoes, Aidan had never felt the need for lots of shoes. A buzzing came from the living room, telling Paige that someone was at her door, "It's open!" She hollered, the witchlighter heard the door open,

"Paige?" Pier's voice called out.

"In here!" The youngest sister shouted back.

The eldest Charmed One smiled politely as she saw all of the clothes laid out on the bed, "Honey, what are you doing?"

"Oh, just packing up Aidan's stuff," Paige replied as she folded a t-shirt.

"Why?"

"Well, I have two children on the way and I'm going to need all the space I can get. I can put all this stuff in a storage place and he can get it if he wants without bothering me…"

Piper raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Wow… How mature of you,"

Paige narrowed, "Look, I'm not going to be one of those clingy people who smell their ex's clothes and I'm definitely not gonna be one of those vindictive people to burn their ex's clothes. This way, I get more space, I move on with my life, and I'm not a psycho ex-girlfriend," She counted these points off with her fingers.

"Speaking of my nieces…" Piper caught a quick touch before Paige slapped her hand away, "Where are they sleeping?"

"In the bedroom next to this one. It's about the same size and I have a guy coming over later in the week to see about extending it."

"Paige, you shouldn't be doing this! Let me and Phoebe take care of these details, you should be resting,"

"Excuse me Missy," Paige began in a matter of fact tone, "But aren't you the one who wanted to stay in action when she was pregnant?"

The witch blinked a few times, "Yeah, well… That was a different!"

"How?" The youngest sister smirked.

"Be-be-because… You are carrying two children and you are vulnerable," She replied.

Paige rolled her eyes, "Why? Because I live alone?"

"That's part of it, but Paige, I don't think there has ever been Wiccan twins in the world. You're carrying pioneers,"

"Oh please, you make it sound as if I'm away to find an undiscovered country!" She sighed and put another pair of socks on the bed, "C'mon, let's go see that snoozing niece of ours…" She picked up her purse from under a mound of men's clothes and tapped her sitting sister on the shoulder.

"Me and Emma are going shopping after school finishes, you wanna come?" Paige asked.

"I dunno…" Piper hesitated.

"C'mon Piper! I need you there! We're going… maternity clothes shopping," The youngest said with a sneer.

The mother of two beamed and laughed, "You getting maternity clothes? I'd fight with the Nameless One to see that!"

As if she got her wish, there were three glows in the living room and three demons appeared. Piper shoved her sister to the floor and made a gesture at one of them, making it explode in a flurry of fire and particles. Paige sat up and blew a strand of hair from her face in annoyance before standing up.

"For God's sake! Steak knife!" A steak knife orbed out from its holder in kitchen within a swaddle of orbs, flying at the back of one of the demons and impaling him, causing a fiery vanquish. Piper grabbed Paige's hand and massed out, letting the recently thrown energy ball bounce off the two witches and vanquish its master.

"What the hell was that about?" Paige straightened out her top.

Piper growled, "Paige, you are carrying two thrice blessed children! Part witch, part whitelighter, part elemental. A lot of demons will want to stop their birth,"

Paige surveyed the previous battle scene with a worried glance, thinking of how many more demons she would have to kill for her daughters… no, her family, to be safe…

Emma took a deep breath before entering the final class of the day. With the New Year, came new freshmen, and even though she was the one who decided what classes the potions teachers took, she always ended up with one amazing senior class and one horrible freshman class filled with horrible students.

She opened the door forcefully and put on a face as hard as stone. The class was already out of control, jumping up on desks and trying to open the magically sealed windows, while poking and prodding at the strange ingredients that were in the many jars dotted around the room,

"ALRIGHT! SIT DOWN!" Emma boomed, everyone's head whipped round and saw that the head of potions was now here. They quickly sat down, but the psionic knew it wouldn't stay like that for long. Over the years, Emma had developed a power of intuition; it came in handy as she was able to duck before a potion hit her on the back of head. It hit the blackboard, leaving a large scorch mark, that potion could have seriously hurt her! She spun around on the spot, anger flaming in eyes, "Whoever did that, fess up, NOW!"

She stared into the sea of faces; all freshmen had heard the stories about Emma from the older students, that she would immediately know if you lied to her and if you didn't confess to your wrong doing, she would find out.

"That's a shame, because honesty really is the best policy in my class," She narrowed her eyes and began to use her power, she frowned when everyone in the class seemed innocent, but then she noticed something odd about a tough looking kid that was chewing gum. She was getting nothing from him, the rest of the students were confused and bewildered, but she couldn't read this guy for some reason, "What's your name?"

He snorted, "Like I'm gonna tell you…"

Again, she got nothing, "Tell me." She said in a low voice.

The teen rolled his eyes, "Why? Whoever threw that potion knew it wouldn't hurt you. You're a ghost, why do you care?"

Emma's eyes widened. How did he know her secret? Even Leo, her boss, hadn't known until last year, yet this boy that had been in her class for two weeks had figured it out. Luckily, she came prepared for this class. Pulling out a vial of white liquid while the class waited for their teacher to respond, she threw it to the floor in the centre of the room, a white gas spread through out the students and all of them froze.

The psionic walked towards the troublesome student and searched his pockets while he was frozen. Emma found an ID card and frowned that the name, "Evan Lockhart?" She mulled it over before shaking her head, "Zach's little brother…" Emma growled as she looked in his other pocket, finding a vial filled to the halfway point with a reddish orange liquid, it was as if he had drank some of it. At first, to Emma that it was an empath blocking potion, but that wouldn't protect him from her power, she knew immediately what it was after taking out the cork and smelling its stench, it was a telempath blocking potion.

"Oh Principal Wyatt!" Emma called with a sarcastic tone and a scowl. Leo appeared next to her in a cloud of orbs and looked around the very still students.

"Um… Emma? Care to explain?" He gestured at the classmates.

"If you care to explain how a freshman got his hands on this!" She put the potion into his hand, "It's a telempath blocking potion, and I froze the class after someone threw a very explosive potion at my back!" She pointed at the scorch mark on the blackboard.

"Oh my God, are you okay?"

"Yeah, I'm fine. Psychic intuition really helps when that sort of thing happens, Leo, that potion could have killed me; if I hadn't ducked the contents of my head would be dripping off the wall! By the way…" She gave him the ID card, "Looks like our Zach has a nice younger sibling,"

Leo looked at the troublesome teen then at the blackboard, "Maybe we should bring the person who knows all about him then?"

"So you haven't been missing much at school," Paige said to her sleeping niece, "Besides, you'd probably learn more just by spending time with your aunties!" She grinned, "Which we'll be doing a lot more of when you pull out of this…" The witchlighter took Pamela's hand, "Please wake up soon, I don't want my children to born into a world without their big cousin to protect them…"

Piper came back from the window that she had been opening slightly to let some air into the stale room, she had also pulled up the blind so the afternoon sun could burst in, "Wyatt keeps asking if he can have your room, but he also keeps asking when you're coming back. I don't think he knows what he wants!" Piper smiled as she sat to the other side of Pamela.

Still nothing stirred, her chest continued to rise and fall with her breaths and nothing flickered underneath her eyelids.

"It's good to talk to her like that…" The doctor said as he stood at the door, "It's been proven to increase brain activity in coma patients," He explained.

"What are her chances?" Piper asked with a grim face.

"Well, because of her age and impeccable health record, her chances of pulling through are good. This may sound silly, but Pamela's lucky that this happened at this stage of her life, an older patient would have a far slimmer rate of survival… Visiting hours are over in ten minutes," He said solemnly before moving on.

Piper stood up and did a little arranging with the vase of flowers and moved one of the cards that was sitting on the nightstand so that Pamela would be able to see it if she woke up.

"C'mon, let's go…" Piper whispered to her sister, walking out the door with Paige close behind.

Paige suddenly gasped and grabbed Piper's shoulder, spinning her around so she could see that her eyes had went completely white, "Aunt Piper! Help me!" Paige cried out, before her eyes turned back to normal and she stumbled back.

The eldest Charmed One stared at her sister in disbelief, what had just happened? Deciding to worry about it later, she helped Paige through the door and left…

Although it couldn't be seen by the witches that had just left, a white cloud of light hovered in the air before lowering and taking on the form of Pamela!

"Dammit!" She growled, staring at her lifeless body in the hospital bed. Although she was standing there, no one could see or hear her at all, she slumped into the chair next to her bed, cursing at the fact that she was stuck in a hospital gown while she tried to make contact with her family.

"The unborn children overrode your control over Paige, that's why you didn't stay in control for so long,"

Pamela looked at who had said that, her heart skipping a beat when she saw her biological mother leaning against the doorframe. The teen got up and growled at the deceased Charmed One who stood casually at the door,

"Hmm… I don't know what's worse, the fact that I'm facing a lonely eternity wearing a hospital gown, or the fact that my deadbeat of a mother has popped in to say hi…" She snarled.

"I'd say the first one is worse," Prue nodded towards her daughter's body in the bed.

"I can take care of myself…" She rolled her eyes.

Prue let out a laugh, "Yeah, that's what I used to believe, and look where I ended up."

Pamela narrowed her eyes, "I've been taking care of myself and those around me my entire life, and I've been doing just fine,"

"Look, sweetie-,"

"Sweetie? You can't call the daughter that you abandoned and gave a crap of a life to "sweetie"… What are you doing here anyway? Shouldn't you be enjoying your happy little afterlife?"

"I came down here to help my daughter," Pamela cringed at her mother's word usage," Pam, whether you believe it or not, giving you up was the biggest regret of my life. I may not know you too well but I love you more than anything and if I need to spend eternity here with you, then that's what I'll do,"

"So you're here to help me?"

"I'm not leaving until that Pam…" She pointed at the sleeping Pamela, "Is awake,"

The Halliwell teen sighed and rolled her eyes, pacing around the four walls that she was trapped in. Whipping around to face her mother, she began another bombardment of questions, "Why couldn't I possess Aunt Paige? Ghosts can do that and I'm a witch with the power of possession, I should have double the chance of keeping in control!"

"Actually it's because you're a witch that makes it worse…"

"Wow… Another bad thing to come from you, don't you ever get tired of ruining my life?"

"Two witch souls can't inhabit the same body," Prue continued, ignoring her daughter's venomous comment, "Their magic is at a constant war with each other until one is ejected, in this case-,"

"Shut up!" Pamela screamed, tears beginning to form in her eyes, "I don't need your help! Where were you when I was eight and a demon broke my leg by throwing me across a street? Where were you when school was a living hell? Where were you when I began to have powers that I didn't understand? And WHERE WERE YOU… when I needed a mother, someone to comfort me, someone to tell me that the monsters in my dreams didn't exist? Or even just to be there… I would have settled for that, instead of having a screwed up life I've led because YOU were afraid of what "Granny" would say if you came home with a baby!" She fell to her knees in defeat, tears flowing constantly from her now red and puffy eyes and sobbing gently into her hands.

Prue swallowed back the urge to breakdown as tears began to fall down her cheeks. Even from watching her constantly after she was found by her sisters, Prue had never seen this side of her daughter, the side that was weak, vulnerable, and needed protection. The Charmed one fell to her knees beside Pamela and pulled her into a hug, the teen resisted at first, but gave into her mother and began to cry on her shoulder as Prue held her only daughter tightly and stroked her hair while rambling into her ear,

"I'm so sorry I left you, I never should have, you shouldn't have had to live the way you did, I'm so sorry!"

And unbeknownst to everyone that passed by, the spirits of mother and daughter found the strength and comfort they needed and had missed their entire lives…

Phoebe led Sandra, Ally and Brennan around the wide expanse of fields, she was able to use her powers and had found a faint signal from Nelle, but they had to move fast before the eldest Mulwray sibling fainted or worse.

Sandra tapped her big brother on the shoulder, "So, how much of a fight did you have when you wanted to name Connor after Dad?" She smirked, moving a piece of her blonde hair from her face.

"What? No fight, why would you think that?" Brennan frowned at his youngest sister.

"Well, the Halliwell line is very… strong headed, I though she would want to name him after someone in her family,"

The male witch shook his head, "You've been listening to Gramps stories too much. I see her family everyday and they're great people, just like this family actually. You would definitely get on with her sisters,"

"You're not just saying that because she can hear thoughts, are you?" She smirked, but Brennan's eyes widened.

"Is that was this is about? You're afraid of Phoebe?" He almost laughed out loud.

"C'mon Bren, we both know how powers can corrupt people, it's what caused our brother to betray us and what forced you to kill him. I'm just wondering how much she's been effected by having her powers,"

"Guys, we need to move quicker, it'll be nightfall soon," Ally said from the front with Phoebe.

Brennan shot Sandra a look before walking ahead of her…

"What's the problem?" Zach faced Emma and Leo in the empty classroom.

"This is…" Leo stepped forward and put the potion in the teen's hand, Zach glared at it and then looked at the two teachers, then gasped,

"Evan… Did he hurt you?" He replied urgently.

Emma's throat clenched up, "You knew about your brother's murderous tendencies?"

"He's not a murderer!" He replied in protest, "Look… Evan is my half brother; his father was a ghost hunter,"

"Wh-what?" The psionic almost stopped breathing; she walked towards the window and left the conversation. Leo cringed and turned back to his student, hoping that he could still salvage something,

"Look, Zach, we'd appreciate if you keep Miss DeLauro's… condition, a secret. It might cause even more complications…" The telepath nodded and silently asked if he could leave, the Elder nodded and watched him leave before going over to Emma and starting up a shaky conversation, "Are you okay?"

She snorted, "I'm I okay? I have someone who wants to kill me in my classroom. What do you think?"

"It's not his fault, it's in his genes! You can't blame him for that,"

"I want him out of my class, out of this school,"

"Emma…"

"Leo, not only is he a danger to me, but you have at least three more spiritual beings on staff! I'll know who to blame if one of them disappears,"

The tired Elder sighed, "I'll see what I can do, he's out of your class but we can't expel him because of his genes."

Emma growled something under her breath before storming out of classroom, looking around wearily in case a certain ghost hunter was hiding in the shadows…

"Are you sure she's down there?" Sandra looked down.

"Positive," Phoebe confirmed.

They all stood at the edge of a giant hole that they had found in one of the fields. Ally had almost fallen in as she hadn't noticed it in the pitch darkness of the country, it was enormous! It stretched across most of the centre of the field and they couldn't see how deep it went.

"Nelle!" Ally boomed down the hole, making a tunnel with her hands to make her shout louder. There was no answer.

"What are we waiting for? Let's go!" Brennan was about to jump in, but Phoebe pulled him back.

"Nuh uh! I'm not having a pancake for a husband!" She warned.

"Well, you said that Nelle is alive down there, so she must have not been killed by falling down!" He protested like a small child. Phoebe edged closer to the pit and wore a worried look on her face; there was something down there, something she wasn't sure she could fight. Brennan suddenly grabbed her by the waist and readied his other hand, "You guys follow me in!" He said to his sisters before jumping into the hole, the echoes of Phoebe's screams cracking the silence like ice. Sparks began to fly from Brennan's free hand as he activated his jet propulsion power to slow his descent. The middle Charmed One looked up to see her sister in law's using their version of jet propulsion, Ally had steam flowing her hands while Sandra just blasted wind from her hands.

"Can you sense her better down here?" Sandra questioned.

"Yeah… Wait!" Phoebe put up her hands to make everyone stop moving, "We're not alone…"

"There's something in here with us?" Ally's face paled, she had never wanted to fight demons again after what had happened with her father. Brennan quickly caught his wife as her eyes glazed over and she fell back,

"Honey, what's wrong?" He asked Phoebe as he brought her back to her feet.

"I don't know, th-this… doesn't feel right. We find Nelle and get out of here as fast as we can, got it?"

The two Mulwray sisters shared a worried glance and went in the direction Phoebe has indicated. Brennan still wasn't convinced; she gently held her by the arms and looked into her eyes,

"You don't look so good. Maybe I should take you back up?" He suggested, but she shook her head vigorously.

"No I…" She stopped and looked distant, "I think I know what happened… Nelle opened the ground with her power to kill some demons, but she did it on unstable ground and fell in herself," Phoebe held her hand to her face, even in the pitch black darkness someone could she was shaking, "She's unearthed something horrible…" Phoebe whispered, before stumbling again.

"That's it; I'm taking you back up." Brennan put his arm around her waist as she was close to passing out and prepared to fly, but a shout caught his attention.

"You guys! We found her!"

"I'm fine…" Phoebe pushed her husband away with great effort and stood on her own two feet, walking slowly towards the source of the noise while moving through all the boulders and earth.

"We need to get this rock off her!" Sandra announced. Nelle was lying underneath a large boulder, her long dark hair laden with dirt and her eyes barely open as she looked into the light Phoebe was creating with a psionic blast.

"Stand back," Ally instructed, everyone did so and she gestured at the ground. Steam began to form underneath the boulder and two geysers shot up from the ground, blasting the boulder into the air and sending it flying across the area.

"Okay, we need to get her home and call for our whitelighter…" Sandra carefully helped up her oldest sister who had now passed out and was severely injured. Phoebe's eyes widened and she pushed Brennan to the ground as an energy ball whirred through the air and smacked off the wall.

Everyone looked around to see a vile demon covered in blue scales, whipping his sharp tail from side to side as his white teeth stood out in the darkness, not to mention his red eyes stuck out like car headlights. Brennan picked up his stumbling wife and moved closer to his sisters, "Sandra, get us out of here now!" He fired an electrical arc from his other hand, which the demon jumped over with incredible speed and grinned as he landed gracefully.

"Sandra, NOW!" He yelled, making sure every was in contact with each other before his sister made them all disappear in a tornado. The echoes of the demons words haunted them as they left,

"You shall not defeat Macreaus!"

NEXT TIME: Phoebe does some research into Macreaus and is shocked by her findings. Piper is outraged when her neighbour calls her a bad mother, Brennan fears for his wife's health after their run in with the mystery demon and Emma begins a mission to unravel the reason for her second chance at life.

I don't have a title for this yet, but it'll be up soon!
