A/N: Kyle will be back, I promise! R & R!
Chapter Seventeen
The past few weeks had been a blur for Paige Matthews. She had lost him again. He had left again. But this time Kyle Brody hadn't just left her, he had left their daughter.
"Paigey?" She heard her eldest sister Prue say from the doorway. "Can I come in?" Paige nodded, rubbing her red-rimmed eyes. Prue sat down next to Paige, stroking Paige's silky lilac bed sheets.
"I just realized that we haven't had a proper chance to have a big-sister-to-little-sister chat," Prue said, laughing nervously. "Piper and Phoebe always found that my little talks with them help and…well, I just thought you needed someone to talk to." Paige smiled for the first time in weeks.
"Thanks, Prue," She replied softly.
"How long did you know Kyle?" Prue asked and then immediately wanted to slap herself. Kyle Brody was not what she had planned on talking about. Oh, God, I'm going to screw everything up with Paige now! I bet this is the last thing she wants to talk about! She's going to start yelling at me now…Prue shouted to herself.
"About half a year," Paige told her, a silly smile plastered across her face. "Piper and Phoebe didn't trust him at first…but I did. He was amazing. He died to save me. I had just found out that I was pregnant that day and orbed to his apartment to tell him, but we were attacked by about ten upper-level demons and Kyle had no powers and I couldn't take them all by myself. Kyle told me to orb us out, but I knew they would follow. I decide to try and vanquish them. I wish I had listened to him. A vanquished a few of them with their own energy balls, but the rest were too powerful. We were out-numbered. Then everything happened so fast…" Paige stopped talking abruptly, her eyes swimming with tears. "One of the demons threw an energy ball at me, but K-Kyle jumped in front of me…the next thing I knew Kyle was lying on the ground. He was dead. And now he's gone again! How could he leave me? How could he leave our daughter?" Suddenly, she burst into tears. Prue wrapped her arms around Paige and rocked backwards and forwards, making shushing sounds and stroking Paige's hair, like she used to do to Piper when she was a little girl.
"I need him, Prue," Paige sobbed. "I need him."
Phoebe and Alexander appeared in a swirl of black and white lights to see a table for two…at the Eiffel Tower!
"Omigod, Alexander!" Phoebe gasped. "You did all of this?" Alexander, dressed in a tuxedo, smiled and bowed low.
"Your table awaits, madam," He said in a lousy French accent. Phoebe laughed. The empathic Charmed One was dressed in a low cut strappy deep pink dress that reached her knees and flared out slightly.
"It's amazing," She said breathlessly, sitting down opposite Alexander and admiring the view below them. "Won't people come up here?"
Alexander shook his head and picked up his knife and fork. "Okay, Miss Halliwell, let's eat!"
Meanwhile, down in the Underworld, Cole stared at his baby daughter who was sleeping in her crib. He sighed. She was so beautiful with honey-blonde hair and her adorable smile…but those black eyes. Cole shuddered. They were so full of evil.
"I'll save you, Jade," He whispered. "I promise." Suddenly, Fleur shimmered in, wrapping her arms around Cole's neck. He growled and pushed her away.
"Get away from me," He muttered darkly. Fleur's jaw dropped.
"What did you say?" She demanded. Cole conjured up an energy ball and transformed into Belthazor.
"Get away from me or I'll kill you," He hissed. "I don't love you. I never did. I love Phoebe. I am only here for my daughter. Just stay away from me, got it?" Fleur gasped, trying to hold back tears. She wanted to hurt him, rip out his hurt and mail it to his beloved Phoebe. But she couldn't. She loved him. Fleur – the powerful demoness – had fallen in love.
Back at the Halliwell Manor, a scream ripped through the air, causing Prue and Paige to break off their embrace. "Piper!" Prue exclaimed. "Quick, orb us!" Paige grabbed onto her sister's arm and they disappeared in a flurry of bright lights.
They reappeared in the sun room to find Katrina telekinetically slamming Piper down onto the table.
"Hey!" Paige yelled. "CHAIR!" In a flurry of orbs, the chair orbed out and reappeared, slamming into Katrina. The demoness stumbled back and then laughed loudly.
"Is that the best you can do?" Lila asked, one eyebrow raised. Prue responded by using the strongest telekinetic blast she could muster, sending Lila flying. The blonde demoness smashed through the wall and landed in a pile of rubble in the next room. Paige and Katrina gasped.
"Prue, have you any idea how much that will cost to fix?" Paige yelled. Prue shrugged and turned her anger to Katrina. She flung out her arm and telekinetically sent Katrina sailing through the window, shards of glass flying everywhere. Now that the two sisters were down, she ran to Piper's side and helped her up.
"Are you okay?" She asked. "Is the baby okay?"
"I think so," Piper groaned. Then her eyes widened. "Where's Paisley?"
"Relax, she's with Darryl and Sheila," Paige replied. "Where's Phoebe? If we want to vanquish these bitches we need her with us to do…before they wake up." Prue pulled out her cell phone.
"Go get the spell," Prue told her youngest sister. Paige nodded and orbed out.
"Are we finally going to send their sorry asses straight to hell?" Piper asked, hands on hips. Prue nodded, a smile playing on her lips.
"You got it."
