AN: Omfg! I was so stressed, because my stupid little brother earased it so I had to re-write it and I'm SURE that this version wasn't as good as my first one! But lets just hope it's okay!
Halli-halliwell: Thank you!
phoebe turner: This chapter is a bit shorter actually, I think, but it was really hard to write and I just want to lay out my characters before I start going on with story properly, that'll be in about chapter 4 or 5.
I-Cant.Think-Of.A-Name.Lol: thanks!
nicole812us: Different set of witches, not the charmed ones, as he don't exist but, still witches! This whole chapter is full of Piper, n thank you!
Leo orbed in next to a house. Well, more of a manor really. Big, nice and red. He walked slowly up the stone steps, not wanting to be seen. He had a magical cloak on, which prevented him from being seen but, better to be safe than dead. He creeped up to the window and peeped inside.
He saw a petite brunette with a bottle of witch hazel in her right arm and a cotton pad in her left. When he looked closer he noticed a deep purple bruise o her right arm. He looked her up down. She was beautiful. That came as no surprise to Leo. A lot of his charges had been. Not any more. All of them six feet under, and Piper Halliwell-Burns would be next…he just had to play the time game first.

Piper looked down at the new bruise on her arm. The bruise had come up this morning, but the damage was done last night, after Jeremy came home. That was when the damage was ALWAYS done. The time she feared the most, her husband coming home. It was ironic really, the time when most women looked forward to, was her worst nightmare.
He came home late, every night. It's not like he even had a job anymore, he was at the bar all day, well god knows where he was until they opened, but it probably had something to do with drinking as well, or girls.
She knew that he cheated on her, she didn't care ant more. When exactly did she stop caring? She didn't know, she didn't care any more. About much actually, not any more. Jeremy had made sure of that. The only things in the word she actually felt something for were her sisters and their children. They were the only things keeping her sane.
But they didn't know, they didn't know what her life was actually like. They saw a happy couple. To them Jeremy and Piper were perfect together. They never actually saw. They never saw the bruises and scars that his beating had left on her skin. They didn't see the emptiness inside.
She couldn't tell her sisters. On some level she knew that they would never let him touch her, but there was always that coward instinct inside. Thinking that if she told them and Jeremy found out that she had then, thing would get worse. That he would hurt her nieces and nephews or sisters. She wouldn't him hurt them. He could do what ever he wanted to her, but so long as they were okay, he couldn't destroy her.
She looked back down at the huge purple bruise on her arm. It was better than most times. Some times she had been too beat up to even get up in the morning. This was only one little bruise.

Leo watched Piper as tears rolled down her cheeks and seemed to burn their tracks into her skin. He felt a pang in his chest, be he shook it off. What WAS that? I shouldn't be feeling things! I'm evil! This bothered him a bit but he carried on watching her.
He took in her whole apperence. She was small, with long, flowing brown hair, and deep brown eyes. She was wearing, a short-ish denim skirt that was nicely showing off her gorgeous legs and a low cut red blouse.
This won't be so hard…Leo thought.
