Chapter Nine- Truth hurts
Jake had just finished his shower when he saw bright blue lights appear in his living room. He grabbed his baseball bat and sneaked up behind the intruder. When she turned around they both screamed at each other. He lowered the bat when he realised it was just Paige.
"What are you doing here?" She screamed in annoyance. He sighed.
"Paige, I live here. You orbed into my house. I think I should be asking you that." He told her throwing the bat onto the couch. She looked a little confused and then walked over to his window.
"Sorry, I didn't know. I just had to get away, family stuff. So what are you doing?" She asked looking over the street below. She smiled, it was situated in the place that she least expected a demon to settle in, right next to the park. 'Half demon' She reminded herself.
"I was just about to go for my evening run, I got a spare set of sweats, do you want to join me? We can run and talk, tell me about this 'family stuff' that has got you all wound up." He asked. She nodded and smiled, since when did Cole ever go running? 'Maybe he was different' she thought to herself while she went to get changed.

Piper had been pacing for about an hour now and Leo was starting to get worried. It was NEVER good when Piper paced. He still didn't know the full story, something about future people selfish and wedges.
"Piper please, the carpet hasn't done anything wrong. Please just tell me what's gone on." He asked hoping that he would get some insight into why his wife was raging around like some crazy person.
"Liv and Michael, the two future strangers told me something that I had to keep to myself. So I did, then Phoebe and everyone apart from Paige found out. It was something about Paige, she got really angry and orbed out when I told her. I haven't seen her since and that was three hours ago, its dark and she could be any where." She wiped a tear away from her face.
"Tell me what they asked you to keep to themselves." Leo smiled and sat her down next to him on the sofa with the wine spill on it.
"They told me that they came back a couple of days after Paige was killed by a demon called Zixon, they had to come back to stop him before he got too powerful. Also…that they are Paige's children. When she found out she went bezerk, totally crazy and left." Piper started to cry against his chest, he had to be neutral.
"Piper, honey what you did might not have been the most appropriate idea in Paige's eyes but you did it to help save her. You were trying to save her from dying, from getting hurt and most of all from worry." Leo said, they stayed like that for several hours while she fell slowly into blissful slumber.

It was pitch black in the park now, the only light the shimmer of the moon on the water of the lake in the west corner of the park. Paige and Jake had stopped running hours ago and were now sitting on a bench laughing and talking.
"So your first kiss?" Jake asked. He smiled and so did she, they were really starting to enjoy each others company.
"I was seven, the boy that lived next door to me, we were blissfully in love, well until he moved away and went to Seattle. What about you? Was it some hundred and ten years ago?" She joked, he smirked. Her eyes were a beautiful green colour, but when the moon light hit them they looked even more capturing.
"I was thirteen, a girl in my class, we weren't highschool sweethearts or anything, I went to an all boys school but they visited for a netball tournament." He said and smiled, when he had first met her he had thought she was annoying and the total opposite of each other but he was starting to actually like her.
Paige was about to ask another question when she felt his lips brush hers, more lightly and sweet than before. He started to pull away but then she initiated another kiss. They were both totally consumed in the kiss that neither of them noticed the darklighter shimmer in and aim at Paige.

Liv, Michael, Wyatt and Phoebe were sat in the kitchen talking about little quirks Piper and Paige had when Liv and Michael doubled over in pain. Liv had never felt a pain like it before, only when…
"Moms hurt." She screamed doubling off of her stool. Michael almost did the same when it suddenly stopped. Liv suddenly stood up. "What does that mean? Does is mean that…" She couldn't bare to say it, it was bad enough losing her in the future but she couldn't go through that again, not now.
Leo orbed into the kitchen. He must have felt the same pain. "I can't sense her anymore, that's why I can't feel her pain. She isn't dead though, if she was they would be calling me." He said pointing to the ceiling.
"She got hurt though, so she must be in a place shielded from senses. The underworld?" Wyatt asked. Leo looked at him and nodded in thought.
"Yes, could be. Although, why would demons attack and take her to the underworld, you said that they kill her in the future, so she wouldn't die today and I would think you would know whether or not she was taken at this time, wouldn't you?" Leo asked, he still quiet understand what this Zixon character was about.
"It is a possibility that…we wouldn't know. P…mom always tried to shield us from that part of her. The powerful side of her. Zixon is after her because of a prophecy, Wyatt is the twice blessed everyone knows that but the Elders have yet to find a prophecy declaring that there is a first blessed, Paige. She was the first witch/whitelighter so it makes some sort of sense." She paused. "In the future they didn't mean to k… end her life they wanted her to rule the underworld, the most powerful source ever. She refused they were coming to kill all of us so that she would have nothing left she got in their way and accidentally got hurt, mortally. She died. They don't want her dead, they want her." Liv let them know, they needed to know now, if they were ever going to stop it. She had after all already met their dad, Jake.

Paige's side was really hurting, the darklighter's arrow had hit her right underneath the ribs, she had a punctured lung, she was finding it difficult to breathe. Each breath becoming more and more jagged, she was sure Leo wouldn't get to her soon enough. Jake was frantically flipping through a book, his eyes were blurring with tears. They both hadn't sensed the darklighter before it was too late.
To be continued…Please REVIEW/CRITICISE, I would really like to know what you think. Thanks!
