Well, I have successfully overcome the very bad playing of Ronald McDonald. Lol. I mean no offence to those of you who like Ronald and/or McDonalds. Anywho, I'm hiding from the disclaimer, so put simply, see last chapter for disclaimer.
Disclaimer: HA I found you, I get to hide now! runs off and hides.
Okay, while the disclaimer finds a hiding spot, I will thank the reviewers!
The-Cheese-Fairy: Ronald McDonald is terrifying. He reminds me of, what's that guy's name, Freddy from those Friday the 13th movies. Lol. I had so much fun writing that 'I'm pregnant' scene. Lol. You were yelling at the computer screen? Wow, did I make you that mad. Lol. Thanks so much for your review!
Prince Halliwell: Yup, Jess, Vera and Andrew aren't Elders, but I'm not sure if I should keep it like that. Lol. What happened in the premonition Jess received when she hugged Paige will be explained when Paige and Kyle's child is born. The child isn't the second Twice Blessed Child, but something else. Thanks a bunch for your review!
Oh, before I forget, I would like to apologise for a grammar mistake I made in the last ten chapters. It is Jess's not Jess'Although it can be either, 's is proper, so I will use that from now on. Sorry for the mistake.
A swirl of blue and white lights appeared in the apartment. Jess placed her things on her bed and walked out of her room. Blair and Kira were making themselves comfortable on the couch.
"Hey, where are Vera and Andrew?" Jess asked.
"Well, Andrew is in his bedroom. He said he had a headache, so he went to go lie down." Blair started.
"And Vera had another interview for that job she applied for. She said she would be back in about an hour or so." Kira finished.
"Okay, so what are you two doing?" Jess questioned, noticing five candles lying on the table.
"Oh, ah, nothing. Why do you ask?" Blair wondered.
"Because there are candles on the table." Jess stated.
"Ha, what candles?" Blair asked, shifting his eyes.
"Those ones." Jess pointed at the three lit candles and the two unlit ones.
"Oh, those ones! Um, we were just um," Blair stalled, trying to think of something.
"Jess, what are you three arguing about?" Andrew asked groggily as he slowly stepped into the room.
"Just about candles. That's it!" Kira said quickly.
"Right." Andrew nodded.
"How's your head?" Jess asked.
"Actually, a bit better. You want to make it totally better and heal it?" Andrew pleaded, more than asked.
"Isn't that personal gain?" Kira questioned.
"Not when a demon could have done it." Jess pointed out.
"Oh yeah, a demon is going to give Andrew headaches." Blair said laughing. Kira joined in with her laughing twin.
"Oh shut up you two. Andrew come here." Jess said.
Blair held his hand out. "Wait, can I try healing him?"
Jess looked at Andrew for his permission. He shrugged. "I didn't know you had healing powers. But, sure, go for it. Just don't make my head worse."
"I'll try not to." Blair placed his hands slightly away from Andrew's head, expecting a gold light to appear under his hands. He was surprised when nothing happened.
"Why isn't it working?" Andrew inquired.
"Must be because we're only one forth whitelighter. Here, give me your hand Blair, we'll heal Andrew's head together." Kira took her brother's hand. They placed their free hands over Andrew's head and, finally, a healing light appeared.
"So, how do you feel?" Jess asked her friend.
"I feel fine. So I guess you two can heal together. Sibling bonding isn't it nice." Andrew answered. Suddenly Zankou flamed in, surprising the group.
"Zankou, what are you doing here?" Kira asked firmly.
"I've come to kill you two." Zankou pointed at Jess and Andrew. A fireball formed in both of his hands. He launched one at Jess then Andrew.
"Mom!" Blair shouted. He dove in front of Jess and was hit by the fireball. Jess dropped to her future son's side and tried desperately to heal him.
"Blair!" Kira yelled. She shut her eyes and another Kira appeared. "You're going down."
"Hmm a duplicator, interesting." Zankou said.
"My power isn't making a duplicate of myself idiot. I separate myself. It's called magical separation, and you're going to find out first hand of what I can do." Witch/whitelighter Kira retorted.
Darklighter Kira telekinetically pushed Zankou back a step or two. "Well, that did nothing." She said. Zankou smirked and formed another fireball.
"Let's fight fire with fire." Andrew held out his hands and fire shot out of his hands, heading straight for the target.
Zankou dodged it, but his left arm got nicked by the fire. "Fighting fire with fire only creates more fire."
"Fine, how does wind sound?" Andrew squinted his eyes, allowing a gust of wind to hit Zankou. Zankou, however, just stood in the same spot, not being affected by the wind. He conjured another fireball and was about to throw it.
Witch/whitelighter Kira noticed the fireball and called, "fireball!" The ball of fire orbed out of Zankou's hands and reappeared in Kira's. Darklighter Kira waved her hand at the fireball, sending it back to Zankou, hitting him in the chest.
"Well, if you aren't going to play nicely, I won't kill you. I can't say the same thing for your friend though." Zankou smirked once more and flamed out. After he left, he wind stopped and the two Kiras merged together.
"How is he?" Kira asked, very concerned for her brother.
"Jess, Zankou's going after Vera. We have to help her." Andrew shouted.
"Okay, Kira I can't heal Blair, and I don't know why. We'll have to take him to Kyle. Andrew, we don't know where Vera is. She may or may not be at her interview. Kyle can sense for her or we can scry or both, so we're going now." Jess stated and orbed herself and Blair to the Manor. Kira looked at Andrew, who sighed. They both orbed to their destination.
"So let me get this straight. Zankou attacks you, you fight him of, and he goes after Vera. Why Vera?" Phoebe paced back and forth in the attic.
"He went after her because she's alone." Andrew said as he joined in with Phoebe's pacing. "She can't protect herself."
"Will you relax. Vera's a big girl, she can handle it." Jess said.
"How, Kira and I couldn't handle him." Andrew retaliated.
"I meant she can just orb, or use her powers. Remember, she has powers too. And I know you're worried Andrew, I am too, but you're not looking at the big picture."
"And what would that be?" Andrew questioned.
"You are being overprotective." Jess stated simply.
"I am not being overprotective." Andrew sharply stated
"My ass you aren't. Remember that guy, Nick, in grade 11."
"Yeah, what about him?"
"Well, remember when he asked Vera to be his lab partner, for that one project?"
"Yes, what are you getting at?"
"Andrew, you told her to tell him she was your partner. You were overreacting. It wasn't like she was flirting with him. Nick only asked her to be a lab partner."
"Hey, what kind of a name is Nick anyway?"
"It's a fine name, but see you're in denial. Face it, you are overprotective of Vera." When Andrew didn't reply, Jess knew she had won their little 'battle'.
"Hey, will you two stop bickering. I'm trying to sense my charge." Kyle said politely.
"Yeah, and I'm trying to scry and I can't concentrate." Piper added.
"I found her!" Kyle smiled.
"Me too." Piper added again. "She's…"
"On the Golden Gate Bridge." Kyle finished.
"What is she doing there? That's like, one of the places we meet Elders." Phoebe said.
"Well, no time to waste. Let's go." Paige waved her arms.
"Ah, Paige why don't you stay here." Phoebe told her little sister.
"Why?"
"We need someone to hold down the fort while we're gone. And look after Wyatt and Chris."
"Hi, I'm pregnant, not dumb."
"Well, I don't want anything to happen to my little niece or nephew."
"Phoebe, I'm not even a week pregnant and you're already worried. I'll be fine; the whole family is with me." Paige didn't wait for an answer. She just orbed out.
"Well, that was interesting. No more time wasting though." Jess said and orbed out. Kyle took Phoebe's hand while Leo wrapped his arms around Piper.
"Kira and I will stay here. You know, to watch the kids." Blair offered.
"I don't know. Phoebe, why don't you stay with them?" Piper suggested before she and Leo orbed out.
"But. Oh come on!" Phoebe called after her sister. Andrew smiled as he orbed.
"Sorry Phoebe, majority rules." Kyle said as he let go of her hand. He waved goodbye and orbed to the bridge.
Vera stood on the Golden Gate Bridge, looking out toward the city of San Francisco. Zankou flamed in behind the young woman. Vera, sensing someone behind her, turned around to send water in the person's direction. She stopped when she noticed the fireball in his hands.
"What do you want?" Vera asked as her breathing got heavier.
"See, this is a fireball. And fireballs kill witches. Guess what, you're a witch. Guess you're going to die." Zankou said sneered. He threw the ball of fire at Vera. She countered his attack by launching a wave of water at Zankou, blinding him for a moment.
Orbs formed behind Zankou. Jess threw and orb ball at Zankou to get his attention away from Vera. Andrew ran over to Vera, making sure she was okay. Zankou wiped around and sent a fireball toward Jess. Unfortunately for Jess, she was sent flying back off of the bridge, hurtling toward the traffic below.
"Jess!" The whole group was screaming.
"Piper, freeze her!" Paige yelled at her eldest sister.
"I can't, she's a witch!" Piper shouted back.
"Just try!" Paige pleaded. Piper closed her eyes and flicked her hands. She was surprised to find time rewinding itself. Jess was no longer falling, but rising back up to her position before she was hit. The fireball took it's stance in Zankou's hand.
"Wow, what just happened? One minute I'm falling to my death, the next I'm up here again." Jess said, shocked.
"What did I do?" Piper asked looking at her shaking hands.
"You reversed time. How is that possible?" Zankou questioned, although not expecting to get an answer. "I'll get rid you three Pentacles. And I'll make sure it hurts." He said before flaming out.
"I reversed time?" Piper looked at her husband.
"I guess you did. You just received a new power, chronokinesis." Leo answered.
"The ability to move time forwards or backwards." Kyle continued.
"Great, I've got another power to master."
"It won't be that bad Piper, I mean, you saved my life." Jess said. "Thank you."
"Well you're very welcome. But if you don't mind we should get back, Phoebe's watching the boys. Who knows what kind of trouble she'll get into?" Piper took her husband's hand and the disappeared.
"Kyle, do you want to go back to the house?" Paige asked the father of her child.
"Um, how about I meet you there, I have to talk to my charges." Kyle kissed Paige before she vanished in lights.
"Okay Kyle, what's up?" Vera inquired.
"Alright, you know how Paige is pregnant." Kyle said.
"No! She's pregnant! Oh my gosh, congratulations Kyle." Vera spoke.
"Well, now that you know, I need you three to help me with something."
"And what would that be?" Jess asked.
"I want to ask Paige to marry me." Kyle stated.
"WHAT! Kyle that's great! But why do you need us?" Jess asked again.
"Well if I asked Phoebe, she would blurt it out to Paige and ruin the surprise. And if I asked Piper, well, she'd probably end up telling me that I was proposing wrong. But the real reason I asked you three is not because you can keep a secret, but because I need your powers to help me."
Jess looked at Vera and then to Andrew, who both smile and nodded their heads in agreement. "Okay, what do you want us to do?"
"Well…"
(tiptoeing quietly around the room) SHHH, I'm hunting disclaimer. Hehe. I hope you enjoyed reading that chapter. I left you wondering what Kyle's plan is, eh? Yes, no, maybe. Oh well! (disclaimer's head pops up) HA found you!
Disclaimer: Oh, this game of hide and seek sucks.
Well no one asked you for your opinion on this game.
Disclaimer: Well, I, uh, you suck, I'm going. (runs away crying)
Okay then. I really need you, the reviewers, to help me. I need to know what power you would like to see Paige have. And to The-Cheese-Fairy, there are no lactose intolerant demons in my story, so Paige won't have the power to shoot cheese from her fingertips. LMAO. Okay, until next chapter!
And remember, "Life is not measured by the breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away." -unknown
Hehe, great eh. Roses are red, some willows weep, please leave a review, after the beep.
BEEP!
