I'd like to thank all my readers and reviewers and hope that you all enjoy this chapter and the next!
Good Or Evil (Part One)
A few weeks later the Charmed Ones were all busy doing their own thing. Prue was out on a second date with Andy, because of all the demon attacks and Andy being so busy at work they hadn't found the time but Cole had kindly offered to cover for him, leaving them alone for the evening. In doing so Cole had to call Phoebe at the Manor and rain check their date, he explained and she completely understood.
Piper sat in the living room with her hand resting on her pregnant stomach, she was really getting big, and as she thought about it she scrunched up her face.
"Hey Piper, what's wrong?" Phoebe asked panic settling in, what if Piper was in labour.
"Nothing's wrong sweetie, I'm just thinking about how fat I am," she said looking at Phoebe.
"Piper," Phoebe deadpanned, "you're not fat you're pregnant, there's a difference," she reasoned.
"I know…but I still feel fat."
"Piper you're beautiful…and you know it," Phoebe said sitting next to her sister.
Piper smiled and the realised Phoebe was supposed to be on a date with Cole.
"Phoebe, where's Cole? You guys had a date, did he stand you up? If he did I'll blow him up," Piper rambled answering her own questions.
"Piper!" Phoebe called, Piper stopped mid sentence, "Cole never stood me up, we had a rain check."
"Oh," Piper said, "why's that?"
"Being the nice guy he is, he said he would cover for Andy so he could go out with Prue."
"Holding out on happiness for your big sister Phoebe, I'm impressed," Piper smirked.
Phoebe smiled at her, "yeah well Prue sacrificed her childhood for us, and it's the least I could do to repay her."
"So do you want to watch a film or something?" Piper asked.
"Yeah ok, but question, I know why I'm here alone but where is your husband?" Phoebe asked picking up the remote and changing the channel.
Piper smiled and unknowingly fiddled with her wedding and engagement rings before answering, "Leo is with a charge."
"Guess it's just us then sis," Phoebe said moving closer to Piper and resting her head on her big sisters shoulder. They both continued to watch the movie until sleep claimed them both.
The Seer shimmered into the Halliwell Manor and came across the sleeping forms of Phoebe and Piper. The Seer approached them cautiously; she extended her right hand towards Piper able to feel the power radiating from her. As she got closer a purple coloured force field surrounded both Piper and Phoebe protecting them.
"Protect her while you can my little one, you'll be protecting me soon," the Seer sniggered.
Prue and Andy were on the front porch both thanking each other for the lovely evening they had just had. Andy leant towards Prue as she did the same, their lips met in a passionate kiss. When they pulled away from each other they both looked into the others eyes.
"Do you want to come in?" Prue asked smiling at him.
"I'd love to," he said smiling back at her.
Prue opened the Manor door and stepped inside Andy following. Prue headed towards the living room leaving Andy to close the door, she couldn't believe what she saw; the Seer standing over her baby sisters, luckily Piper and Leo's baby was protecting them. Prue acted almost immediately waving her arm and sending the Seer crashing through the coffee table causing Andy to run in, and Piper and Phoebe to wake.
"Andy stay behind Piper!" Prue yelled as the Seer stood again, "get out of this house!" Prue shouted again turning her attention to the evil before her.
She wasn't stupid, she knew she couldn't go up against the Charmed Ones, she looked at Piper, "we'll see each other again Piper," she said grinning.
"I don't think so because you'll have to go through me," Phoebe said not willing to lose her sister without a fight.
"Me too," said Prue standing in front of Piper with Phoebe by her side.
The Seer smiled smugly by passing the looks Phoebe and Prue were giving her and looking straight at Piper whose face was as cold as stone.
She shimmered out and Prue turned to face her sisters.
"Are you two ok?" she asked.
"Yeah Prue, we're ok, good you came in when you did," Phoebe replied.
"She was standing right over you guys, but she couldn't do anything because this little one wouldn't let her get close," Prue said placing her hand on Piper's stomach.
"Piper are you ok?" Phoebe asked looking at her worried.
"Yeah, it's just she means what she says," Piper replied moving away from them.
"Yeah, but Piper we meant what we said, if it's a fight she wants she's got one," Prue said.
"Question?" Andy interrupted, "who was she?"
"She's the Seer, the one that turned us against each other before," Prue replied looking at him.
Andy just nodded in agreement not really knowing what a Seer was.
"The Seer was here?" Cole asked as he shimmered in at the end of the conversation.
"Cole," Phoebe said walking into his embrace.
"You know what guys I'm gonna head up to bed," said Piper leaving them alone.
"Ok, good night," replied Phoebe, but Piper was already halfway up the stairs, "do you think she's ok?" Phoebe asked.
"I don't know Phoebe, would you be ok if the demon who took you and turned you against your sisters came to your house and said 'we'll meet again'?" Prue asked.
"Probably not," she replied.
"Maybe we should head up Phoebe," Cole suggested taking her hand.
"Yeah come on, night guys."
"Night Phoebe," replied Prue and Andy also heading upstairs. They all changed into their sleepwear and practically fell asleep when their heads touched the pillows.
Piper, however, was lying in bed staring at the ceiling the Seer's words flowing round her mind. She was so occupied with that she didn't hear the familiar jingle or glowing blue and white lights as they formed her husband.
"Hey baby, sorry I'm so late, I couldn't get away," he said taking his shirt and trousers off before climbing into bed, "you ok?" he asked worried.
Piper didn't say anything she just cuddled up to him needing him to hold her, to which he complied. He stayed awake till he knew she was asleep before finally drifting off himself.
The next morning before anyone had even opened their eyes Piper was up, showered and at P3.
Leo reached across to talk to Piper but the bed was empty and cold, which meant she had been gone ages. He got out of bed had a quick shower and got dressed in a dark pair of jeans and a navy shirt. He headed downstairs and found Prue, Andy, Phoebe and Cole all sat in the living room drinking coffee.
"Hey Leo," smiled Prue.
"Hey, I was just wondering what happened last night? I came in and Piper never said two words and I was expecting her to hit the roof I was that late," he replied looking at them.
"Well Leo when I got home with Andy last night the Seer was here standing over Piper and Phoebe," Prue began.
"But the baby was protecting us," Phoebe continued.
"Anyway I threw her across the room, and then she said to Piper something about seeing her soon," Prue said.
"And Prue and I stepped in and said 'not without a fight' and then Piper really wasn't herself," Phoebe ended.
Leo looked at them processing what they had just told him, finally he spoke, "and no one thought to call me?"
"Well Piper said you were with a charge Leo, you can't just drop them because there was a demon in the house. If you always did that then all your other charges would suffer and you'd never leave this house," Phoebe said stating the truth.
"Yeah ok Phoebe you're right, I just don't know what to do," he said.
"Let us deal with the Seer and Piper and you concentrate on your charges and being a good husband and father," Prue said smiling.
Piper was at P3 making sure everything was ready for a sound check, she had managed to find time between getting married and fighting demons to book Dishwalla in her club for that evening. It was all over the radio, how P3 had done it again and how P3 was the place to be. Piper couldn't believe how lucky she was, her club was doing great, she had great sisters, a fantastic husband and expecting her first child. She should be jumping for joy, right? Wrong…instead of being happy about the good things in her life, she couldn't stop thinking about the Seer and those words she had uttered to her.
"Hey Piper," Katy greeted walking down the stairs into the club.
"Hi Katy," she said smiling.
"So Dishwalla her tonight it's gonna be great."
"Yeah, hey do you think you could work an extra couple of hours tonight?"
"Sure, Piper you shouldn't even be here it's not good for you or your little one," Katy said stacking glasses on the bar ready to put away.
"I know but I need to be here a little while, oh…" she said staggering on her feet and raising her right hand to her forehead.
"Piper are you ok?" Katy asked worried.
"No I'm not can you call my sisters, I don't think I should drive home," she replied sitting down.
"Of course I will," Katy said rushing to the phone.
"Hello Prue Halliwell speaking."
"Prue it's Katy, Piper has come over funny, she can't drive home."
"I'll be right there!" Prue shouted into the receiver and hanging up.
"Prue what's wrong?" Phoebe asked looking at her sister worried.
"Piper has had a funny turn at P3," Prue said picking up her coat and keys.
"I'm coming," Phoebe said also picking up her coat.
Andy and Cole had both headed out to work and the Elders had called Leo.
Prue and Phoebe both headed to P3 in Prue's car.
"Piper!" they both called rushing down the steps.
"I'm ok just feeling a little dizzy and ill," Piper replied looking at her sisters.
"Come on honey let's get you home," Prue said helping her stand up.
"Katy can you sort everything out?" asked Phoebe.
"Sure, wish Piper well for me," Katy replied.
"Will do, where are her keys I'll drive her car home," Phoebe said taking Piper's keys from Katy and leaving in the car.
The three of them arrived back at the Manor and headed inside.
"Prue! Phoebe!" Piper screamed lying down on the sofa.
"What?" they asked rushing into the living room.
"I think I'm having my baby!" she screamed again.
"Ok, ok don't panic," Prue said, "just breathe."
"Leo!" Phoebe called while rushing around getting blankets and warm water, "Leo!"
Leo orbed in and looked at her, "what's wrong?"
"Piper thinks she's gone into labour," Phoebe replied.
"I don't think I have…ow oh…I know I have!"
Leo rushed to her side, "you're doing great baby."
"How the hell would you know you just got here! Where the hell have you been?" she shouted at the top of her voice, the poor neighbours.
"Sorry darling, I'm here now," he said soothingly.
"Ok Piper, you're going to have to push," Prue said as Piper screamed yet again and gripped Leo's hand tighter.
"Keep going honey," Leo encouraged her.
Piper kept pushing and soon enough her baby was born; it was a bundle of blue and white orbs.
"Is that…?" Piper asked leaving her question hanging.
"If you're referring to Mr Winkie between the legs then yes," Phoebe said holding the bouncing baby boy before handing him to Piper.
"Look what we did," Piper said facing Leo.
"I've got a son," Leo whispered overjoyed.
"You are blessed, you are loved and you are wise," Piper said smiling through her joyous tears.
Just then the Seer shimmered in and looked at the happy family.
"Get out!" Piper said staring at her eyes full of anger and hatred.
"Come on Piper, think of what I'm offering," the Seer said smirking at her.
Prue went to wave her hand to telekinetically throw the Seer, but Piper's voice stopped her.
"Prue let me," she said, Piper raised her hand, which wasn't cradling her son and gestured at the Seer. There was an explosion on her chest and she staggered back.
"Now that was a warning next time will be worse, get out."
The Seer looked at them and shimmered out of the room.
"Nicely done sis," Phoebe commented admiring the new baby boy.
"Have you thought of any names?" Prue asked.
"I have," Piper started, "I would like to call him Wyatt after you Leo, you're the best thing in my life and because of you I have this beautiful little guy," she finished.
"Leo smiled, "I would love that."
"Wyatt Halliwell welcome to the world," Prue said smiling.
Cole and Andy came home from work later that evening to find everyone fawning over baby Wyatt.
"Who's this little guy?" Cole asked announcing their presence.
"This is Piper and Leo's son…Wyatt," Phoebe said hugging Cole.
"You owe me fifty bucks," Cole said smiling, Phoebe shook her head and smiled before they all headed over to get a little more time with the nephew before fell asleep.
A few days later everyone was still fawning over Wyatt, taking countless amounts of pictures and just spending quality time with each other. One afternoon Wyatt was lying in his cradle, with Piper watching over him, as demons plus the Seer shimmered in. Piper stood automatically in front of her son to protect him.
"Come on Piper, embrace your destiny," said the Seer holding out her hands.
"My destiny is to protect my son," she spat, "Prue! Phoebe!"
They came running in along with Cole, Leo and Andy, just as each demon raised an energy ball. Wyatt sensed trouble and his shield went up around himself, the demons knew they weren't to hurt Piper or the child and aimed their energy balls at Prue, Phoebe, Cole, Leo and Andy. Prue knew Andy would never survive; he was only mortal after all so she pulled him back into Wyatt's protection shield. Piper saw what the demons had done and knew they would never be able to take them all on. Every demon raised their energy balls ready to strike.
"No!" Piper screamed throwing out both of her hands streams of fire flowing from each one.
Many of the demons got caught in her line of fire, others shimmered out in time. Piper felt the power surge through her as she continued to send the streams of fire from her hands; her eyes turned black and then went back to their original brown colour. She lowered her hands and turned to face her family not an ounce of emotion on her face.
Leo, Cole, Prue and Phoebe all stepped towards Wyatt, his force field protecting them all.
"Let's get out of here," Piper said taking hold of the Seers arm.
The Seer smirked at the others as they both shimmered out.
"Piper no!" Phoebe yelled.
They all looked at each other knowing it wasn't going to be the last time they'd battle with the demons or Piper…
