"He's dead" Paige uttered the words into the doctors face notquite understanding
"We tried our hardest I'm so very sorry was he the father?" she asked Paige blinked a couple of times then looked down at her small but noticeable baby bump she shook her head
"No but I wish he was" she whispered the doctor was talking to Piper
"What ever happened he had a huge blood loss and internal damage they'll wanrt to do a post mortem"
"Why?" Phoebe asked
"All suspicious deaths are" the doctor turned to face Paige whose tear streaked face was staring her hand wandering over her stomach
"What relation where you to Mr Brody?" she asked gently
When Paige didn't reply she said
"Friends? Work Collugue?" she prompted
"He was my soul mate" Paige whispered as a fresh wave of tears washed over her she sat down on the large puffy hospital chairs
"I loved him so much and I never told him he never knew how much I wished this baby was his" she sobbed as Phoebe hugged her
"I'll leave you alone for now but I thought you might like to know his body's ready if you want to say goodbye" Piper looked sceptical
"Please" Paige begged Piper nodded and the three followed the Doctor to the morgue Piper grabbed Phoebe's arm and allowed her little sister to go in
"Kyle" Paige whispered she turned
"Can I touch him?" she asked the nurse who was supervising nodded a little Paige picked up Kyle's hand winceing at how cold it felt she looked at him his eyes closed he looked as if he was sleeping but Paige knew this wasn't just sleeping she knew he wasn't going to wake up
"I'm sorry and I- I love you so much I wish I'd told you" she cried again
"Please come back" she begged when the body didn't respond she squeezed tighter
"I need you" she bent down and kissed his lips gently she could swear she heard his voice
"I'll always be here"
Paige was curled up in the back seat next to Phoebe who was talking to Darryl Piper was driving one handed the other was stroking her hand through her hair distractedly
"Darryl What happened?" she listened
"The Driver says Brody just sorta fell from the hills but he was scraching at his neck even though there was nothing around it was it demonic?" he asked
"Mm we think so" she replied Paige was staring out the window watching as the sun was starting to rise
"How is he anyway?" Darryl asked
"He died about an hour ago" Phoebe whispered she saw Paige close her eyes Phoebe reached out her hand and squeezed gently Paige opened her eyes
and managed a small squeeze back
"Look I gotta go thanks for all your help we'll call later but we all need some rest Thanks again" she hung up as Piper pulled into the driveway but she didn't open the door
"It wasn't your fault" she eyed the rear view mirror watching Paige
"I don't wanna talk about it" Paige said she seemed as if she was the one who'd been ran over
"Paige were gonna figure out how to fix this whole baby business I swear" Piper's voice was croaking now as she clicked open the door
"Yeah well the world ending doesn't seem so bad after all" Paige shut the door softly and went into the manor Piper looked at Phoebe
"What happened to us?" she asked
"I don't know Piper but me you Paige and the boy's we'll stay together I swear no matter what" Phoebe smiled
Paige was being pinned to the wall by Impulsiarian his hand was stabbing through into her stomach she could feel it wrenching around her normally pale complexion had gone even further than even Paige had imagined she was shaking and in so much pain
"Paige-" Piper stopped dead as she saw what was happening
"Get off her" she screamed she lifted her fingers
"No! Blow me up and she dies to" he growled Paige squirmed
"Just let me die! Kill me!" she begged for the Pain to stop he reached deeper inside and then closed his eyes a hooded figure shimmered in it or rather she loward the hood
"Yes?" she asked eyeing Piper and Phoebe
"I can blow her butt up though" Piper began but Phoebe stopped her
"Take it!" the demon pulled his arm from Paige his cloak and her clothes drenched in her blood she fell limply to the ground as he pushed his arm into the demon woman stood beside him
"Your carrying my child now" she shimmered away and he turned Piper was itching to blow him up
"Your sister is no longer pregnant the balance remains however don't call am ambulance Western medicine isn't equipped for my poison" he shimmered
"Damit!" Piper wanted to blow him up so much Phoebe was next to Paige she pulled her over to the couch
"Paige? Open your eyes" Phoebe begged Paige's eyelids fluttered
Piper raced upstairs returning with blankets and a first aid kit
"What do we do?" she asked
Phoebe shrugged
Piper began mopping up the blood from the hold the Impulsion had made she pressed a towel to the would and arapped a banaged tightly to stop the bleeding
"Paige come on sweetie!" Phoebe begged
"I'll go to magic school see what I can find" Piper stood then leaned over and kissed Paige's cheek "Hold on" she begged Piper raced to the book and chanted a spell to take her to magic school
Phoebe watched Paige's chest rising and falling her eyelids fluttered again and then opened
"Phoebe?" Paige whispered breathlessly
"I'm right here" Phoebe sniffed
"Just let me go, please" she begged Phoebe shook her head
"No Paige Piper will find a spell a potion something and we'll fix you"
"Please Phoebes I'll be safe I'll be with Leo and Kyle" Paige was in tears now making her breathing slower and harder
"Just calm down I'll get you some water" Phoebe got up wiping the tears from her eyes she pinched her nose slightly for a second then sniffed opening the fridge she picked up the bottle of mineral water Paige kept the lid clicked off and she dropped it the water spilling all over the floor she grabbed a towel quickly and began mopping it up then she stood knocking Piper's food processor off the side she slammed the fridge and put her hand toher head hopelessly running her hands through her hair she sat down vaguely she heard orbs
"Leo?" she asked looking up instead she saw Christelle
"I take it you remember our conversation from before?" she asked gently sitting down Phoebe blinked her eyes red and swollen
"The baby's gone the only one at risk is Paige now you have to help" Phoebe sat down too
"The sacrifice of one for the good of all" Christelle repeated
"No the threat is gone! There is no need to sacrifice her!" Phoebe shouted
"No the threat is gone from Paige not from the world that baby no matter who it's inside is still Paige's it is still the embodiment of great power a power this world cannot hold" Christelle seemed to be tired of arguing so Phoebe let it lie
"Then your no use Go"
"But I'm your whitelighter" she protested
"NO! Leo was our whitelighter unless your going to save Paige we don't want any help from the elders any more" Phoebe said Christelle nodded and orbed away Phoebe wiped her eyes and went to check on Paige
"Paige?" she asked her sisters eyes where shut again her breathing minimal
Piper flicked through the books
"Damn you!" she threw it across the room Wyatt watched her Piper looked at him
"Sweetie why don't you go play?" she asked
"Mommy I want to help" he toddled over and scrabbled at a book it fell open
"Thanks Wyatt but Mommy wants to read by herself" she ruffled his hair and he went back to his toys she looked down at the Page she read it
"Wyatt mommy will be back later" she raced off and back to the manor praying Paige was holding on she got downstairs she looked at Phoebe her eyes glued to Paige
"Phoebe what day is it?" she asked she crossed and sat beside them Phoebe jumped
"Saturday" she replied "Why?"
"Then according to the Prophecy Paige should be giving birth right about now" Piper said
"So the worlds not gonna end?"
"Nope looks like the Impulsiarian screwed up" Piper replied she rocked Paige slightly who opened her eyes a little
"Hey
