"Wyatt what are you still doing up?" Phoebe asked, in the middle of the night, she'd come downstairs to get a drink of water.
"I couldn't sleep" Wyatt said croakily.
Phoebe was about to go and sit next to him.
"Ow" She said grabbing her chest.
"Aunt Phoebe what's the matter?" Wyatt said quickly getting up to help her.
"No it's alright stay there" Phoebe said.
"What?"
"It's you I'm feeling your pain"
"Oh…"
"It's alright" She said gently "You know this wasn't your fault"
"I couldn't have helped her… yelled out to her faster… my shield could have protected to us both"
"Wyatt she wouldn't have wanted that, you know that… she's a fighter just like you" Phoebe said smiling.
"I know…" Wyatt said sighing, but he still couldn't stop feeling guilty. He loved her and you're supposed to protect the people you love.
"Sweetie you can't always protect them, no matter how much you love them" Phoebe said quietly
Wyatt had forgotten she was an empathy for a second there, "I know, don't worry about me, you just go to bed, I think I'll stay here for tonight"
'Ok sweetie, I'd give you a hug… but it hurts" she said smiling
"I know Aunt Phoebe… good night"
"I am so sorry Pacific" Wyatt said crying, he rest his head on her chest and quickly fell asleep, the stress had finally taken over.
When Piper got up in the morning, she went to check on Wyatt, she herself had barely slept a wink last night, she kept replaying the event in her mind, from the time Pacific went down to the part when Wyatt blasted the room to pieces. When she found Wyatt was not in his room she panicked slightly but then realised that he would be downstairs with Pacific.
She found Wyatt exactly how he'd fallen asleep the night before, he looked terrible, his eyes were blotchy and they looked even worse because his skin was extremely pale.
"Leo" She called softly.
"What is it?" He asked upon arrival "Oh… did Wyatt stay here all night?"
"Yes can you orb him to his bed… he looks awful" Piper said "I'll stay with Pacific"
"Sure no problem"
Piper sat with Pacific for the next two hours, she didn't move or speak to anyone she just sat there. When Wyatt woke up he took over and sat there just like he had the night before.
The attic
"Hey… I was wondering, why does Piper care so much?" Paige asked.
"I don't know" Phoebe replied
"I mean the girls only been here for like 3 weeks" Paige said "I mean she sort of acting like she's her daughter her something"
"Stop" Piper said angrily, she'd been standing at the door listening to them talk.
"Piper we didn't…."
"Don't Phoebe just listen" Piper interrupted "You want to know why I care? Because just before the attack, she thanked me for being like a mother to her, she thanked me for making her feel like she belonged to the family. Because she's never had a real family, her parents were killed by demons. So for her life so far she's been alone… with no family… no one to support her… she thanked me… and then she almost dies… I almost LET HER DIE" Piper said crying completely now. She couldn't handle this anymore; she ran to her bedroom and locked the door.
"Piper…" Paige called after here.
"Paige just leave her for a while" Phoebe said gently
"Oh man I feel awful"
"I know you do sweetie… but the best thing we can do now, is to find a antidote for what ever is keeping Pacific from getting better and we need to find Reyna and work out what this prophecy thing is all about" Phoebe said.
"Speaking of Reyna, this girl I saw when I was interrogating the demon yesterday, she looked… so familiar"
"What the one that vanquished the demon?"
"Yeah her… she stopped and stared at me before she left"
"You don't think… could she be the real Reyna?"
"I don't know but I did feel some sort of connection to her… but even if she is… do you really think we'll be able to get her back?' Paige asked "I mean she's been brought up being evil for 13 years"
"Paige you can't think like that… we'll get Reyna back"
"But I wont know her… she'll be completely different from the evil Reyna that we knew"
"I know honey but we'll deal with that once we've got her back"
Downstairs
"Hey Wy… why don't you go get something to eat I'll sit with Pacific for a while" Chris said trying to get Wyatt to eat.
He looked at Pacific "Yeah ok… thanks"
Chris took Wyatt's spot on the couch.
"Obviously you're pretty special to Wyatt… I've never him this way about a girl before, but I'm really glad he's got you" Chris said to Pacific even though he knew she couldn't hear him… or so he thought.
"WYATT" screamed Phoebe happily "WE'VE FOUND ANTIDOTE"
"Oh my god! That's fantastic" Wyatt yelled running into the room.
As soon as he got there Phoebe started dancing around the room.
"Ok Phoebe… what are you doing?" Paige asked confused
"What's wrong with Phoebe?" Piper asked, as soon as she arrived Phoebe danced a little faster.
"OK I'm channeling Wyatt's and Piper's feelings… really hating being an empath at the moment"
Piper started laughing.
"Do you mind… stop being happy" Phoebe yelled
"Geez you're hard to please Aunt Phoebe… last night you were complaining it hurt now you're complaining about being too happy" Wyatt said laughing.
"Yeah, Yeah come on let's give Pacific her antidote" Phoebe said smiling, that her nephew was at least a little bit happier, even though she could still feel his pain.
They went downstairs, and Wyatt gave Pacific the antidote.
"She's not waking up" Wyatt said painckly
"Just calm down, give it time to work" Paige said
Pacific's eyes fluttered, slowly her vision came back as she opened her eyes an got used to the light.
"Wh… What happened?" She asked groggily
"Oh thank god" Wyatt said throwing himself on her.
"Umm you're suffocating me" Pacific said laughing "It's good to see you too… I'm really thirsty"
"I'll get you a glass of water" Wyatt said quickly
"Thanks… SO what'd I miss?" Pacific asked smiling
"Oh not much… except when you got hit Wyatt practically destroyed the attic with his new power" Phoebe said.
Wyatt came back with the water
"So I here you got a new power" Paicifc asked Wyatt
"Yep"
"And everyone thinks it's evil" He thought
"No one thinks it's evil Wyatt" Pacific said, Wyatt just starred at her.
"That was one of his mega powers in the evil future" Pheobe thought to herself.
"Phoebe this isn't the evil future, Wyatt's a completely different person" Pacific said slightly annoyed.
"What I didn't even say anything" Phoebe said "I thought about it…"
"Look's like Wyatt's not the only one with a new power" Paige said
"Well that's only fair if you get one I should get one too" Pacific said laughing "Guess that makes me an empath"
"This could be dangerous" Piper said
"Last time we could read thoughts we found out a whole lot of things we didn't want to know… thank god we never cast that spell again" Piper thought, thinking back to the time when Prue and her cast a read thought spell.
"Who's Prue?" Pacific asked "Oh sorry I read your thoughts again… don't worry I'll learn to control it"
"Prue was our sister… she was killed by a demon" Piper said sadly
"Oh… I'm so sorry"
"Don't worry sweetie that was a long time ago" Piper answered giving her a hug.
