AHOY readers! Here is another chapter of Secrets and Whitelighters. WOW, it's May already. I think time has spun out of control. Lol. Charmed is not mine. I do ,however, own 2 magazines and anything you do not recognise.
The-Cheese-Fairy: Glad you liked it! Ah yes, the cheese. Well you won't have to wait long for that. Hehe. Thanks for the luck, but I'll have to wait about a week to get my test back. Thanks for your review!
Prince Halliwell: Glad you liked it! It was a magical way, wasn't it? The baby's power, I think, is going to be interesting. Thanks for your review!
In 'Elder Land', Darrius and Odin were discussing the news they had just received.
"She can't be pregnant." Darrius said to Odin.
"Well, apparently she is. She wasn't supposed to have the Divine Amity. Not yet anyway. It's too soon." Odin replied.
"Well, the Divine Amity was going to be born to Paige no matter what. Maybe we should take this as a sign. Maybe it is telling us that Kyle will always be with Paige no matter what we do."
Odin sighed. "Perhaps you are right."
A demon shimmered into the conservatory of the Halliwell Manor. Piper, not knowing the demon was in the room, walked in. She was not expecting the demon to be there and flicked her wrists, blowing up the demon.
"Well, that was awkward." She said to herself. The door to the Manor opened to reveal a smiling Paige and a grinning Kyle.
"Hi, what are you two so happy about?" Piper asked her youngest sister.
"Well, Kyle just proposed to me in the most romantic way possible." Paige replied.
"What, he proposed. That's amazing Paige. I'm so happy for the both of you." Piper hugged her sister and soon to be brother-in-law. "So, how do you think Phoebe will react? She never really did like you."
Kyle sighed. "She still hasn't gotten over that loathing for me?"
"Guess there's really only one way to find out. We'll tell her. But it won't matter what her reaction is because I'm going to marry you no matter what she or the Elders have to say." Paige stated.
"So, what gender do you think your baby will be?" Piper asked.
"It doesn't mater what sex the baby is, as long as he or she is healthy. But I am beginning to think that I will be a boy." Paige answered.
"Why is that?" Kyle inquired. He would be thrilled with either a boy or a girl.
"Well, after getting two nephews instead of two nieces, I'm not sure which way it is going to swing."
The telephone rang in the Pentacle's apartment. Vera picked up the phone.
"Hello." She answered. The person on the other end of the phone began taking. "Oh, hi mom, I'm fine." Silence. "Alright, what is it you want to talk about?" Vera paused. "Okay, sure. When do you want us to come?" Andrew had decided to walk in at that moment. "Yeah, we'll be there as soon as possible. Bye mom." Vera hung up the phone.
"And what was that about?" Andrew questioned.
"My mother wants to talk about something. We're going to visit her right now."
"What, she's not that fond of me if you remember. She only put up with us going out because our fathers were friends."
"Andrew just come with me. She says it is really important. We can leave once we find out what is going on. Okay?"
"Alright, let me leave a note for Jess." Andrew scribbled some words on a piece of paper. Once he had finished, Andrew took hold of his girlfriend's hand and they orbed out.
Blue and white orbs appeared in Duncan's apartment. Jess stepped forward, tapping the sleeping Darklighter. Unfortunately, Duncan did not wake up. Jess sighed, walked out of the room, and returned with a glass of water in her hand. She smirked and threw the clear liquid on him. Duncan shot out of his bed with his head soaked.
"What was that for?" He questioned.
"Well you wouldn't wake up the easy way, so I decided to wake you up in a fun way." Jess answered.
"Why did you come here?"
"We haven't talked in a month; I thought you would be overjoyed to see me. I just wanted to tell you what has happened."
"Okay, so talk."
"Why are you so upset?"
Duncan looked away from the blonde. "You wouldn't understand it's a Darklighter thing."
"You'd be surprised. Just tell me."
"I can't."
"Why not?"
"They told me not to say anything, so I won't."
"You just said something. So, who are 'they'?"
"No one. Just drop the subject."
"Fine. I came to tell you Paige is pregnant, Kyle proposed and my powers have been back for about a month. I couldn't get in touch with you so don't ask why I didn't tell you sooner, okay."
"Okay. So, what are you doing right now?"
"Actually, I was going to see the Halliwell's. Did you want to come?"
"Sure, I have nothing better to do." Jess smiled and orbed out.
"Don't tell her, or anyone. Take your time. We will be waiting for your answer." A voice echoed throughout the room. A green head whizzed by Duncan's face. The Darklighter sighed as he closed his eyes and dark orbed out.
Jess and Duncan appeared in the attic of the Manor. Jess walked over to the Book of Shadows.
"Jess, what are you doing?" Duncan asked as he strolled over to Jess.
"You know, we should have one of these spell books. Don't you think so?" Jess said, flipping through the pages of the Book.
"Don't avoid my question, what are you doing?"
Jess sighed. "Uh, just touch the Book."
"Why?"
"Just do it Duncan." Duncan gave in. He knew very well what the Book of Shadows was capable of. His hands hovered over the page about darklighters. Duncan's hands dropped onto the old book.
"Duncan, that means that you're…"
"I told you I wasn't evil anymore." Duncan let out a sigh of relief. The Book didn't protect itself from him.
"Who isn't evil anymore?" Phoebe decided to join the two in the attic at that moment. Duncan, who was surprised by Phoebe's entrance, sent Phoebe flying back towards the door.
"Uh, Phoebe!" Jess called. She stretched out her hands, expecting Phoebe to orb to Jess before the empathic witch crashed. Phoebe dissolved in orbs and reappeared next to Jess.
"Wow, thanks Jess. Who are you and what was that?" Phoebe questioned the young man.
"Oh, me, um, I'm Duncan and that was an accident." Duncan replied.
"How'd you do that?" Phoebe wondered. "Are you a witch?"
"Oh, uh yes I am. As you can see I'm telekinetic. I also have a bit of telepathy." Duncan said quickly. Jess's mouth dropped slightly. Did Duncan just say he was a witch? Oh, he's getting his ass kicked when they find out he's a Darklighter. She thought.
"Okay then." Phoebe squinted her eyes at the new 'witch'. Something's off about him, but I can't put my finger on it. Phoebe thought.
Paige, Kyle, and Piper entered the attic.
"Hey, what's going on up here? We heard yelling." Piper inquired. She looked from younger sister to Jess, until her eyes fell on Duncan. "Hi, who's he?"
"Oh, that's Duncan. He's a witch." The tone in Phoebe's voice told Jess that the middle Halliwell sister was suspicious of Duncan. Paige and Kyle tried to digest the information Phoebe had just said. They knew he was a Darklighter, but why did Phoebe think he was a witch?
A loud beep could be heard throughout the entire house. "Oh, that would be the timer. I've got to take the food out of the oven." Piper rushed out of the attic.
"Phoebe, your cell phone is ringing!" Piper called up to her sister.
"Okay Piper, thanks." Phoebe took one last glance at Duncan before she left the room.
Kyle cleared his throat. "Jess can we talk to you and Duncan?"
The former Elder moaned. She knew what was coming. "It wasn't my idea. Phoebe asked if he was a witch. Asslighter over here said he was."
"Wait, why did Phoebe ask if he was a witch?" Paige asked.
"I kind of accidentally used my telekinetic power on her. She startled me!" Duncan stated.
"WHAT! You used your power on my sister!" Paige exclaimed. She flung her hands in the air.
"OW!" Duncan yelped. He looked down at the floor. There, he spotted a block of yellow dairy product. The Darklighter picked it up. "Did you just throw cheese at me?" He pointed at the block of cheese.
"No! Why would I throw cheese at you?" Paige retorted.
"Well your hands flew up in the air and cheese shot out of it." Kyle explained simply.
Jess burst out in laughter. "Looks like little Matthews-Brody has acquired a power. But shooting cheese isn't a power, is it?"
"No it isn't. Maybe he or she is a conjurer of some sort." Kyle pondered.
"Are you done laughing your ass off Jess?" Duncan asked sarcastically. Jess, who was still in fits of laughter, nodded her head.
"Okay, I'm done now." Jess took a deep breath. "Okay, what are we doing about you being a 'witch'?"
"Honestly, you're just going to have to act like a witch. So that means no darklighter arrows or dark orbing.
Duncan groaned. "What did I get myself in to?"
HAHAHA, I killed myself laughing most of this chapter. I know, I'm very weird. Lol.
A BIG thank you to The-Cheese-Fairy for the WONDERFUL idea for shooting cheese from your fingertips as a power
Okay, I know Blair and Kira haven't appeared in this chapter, but they will be in the next chapter. Let's just say, they were um…I don't know, you can think of something. Lol.
It's POLL TIME! Okay reviewers, this is the part of the chapter where you get to pick two songs from this list. I picked these songs because they resemble, to me anyway, Kyle and Paige.
Aerosmith- I Don't Want To Miss A Thing
-Shania Twain- You're Still The One
-Shania Twain- From This Moment
-Kelly Clarkson- A Moment Like This
-Ella Fitzgerald- Every time we say goodbye
-Any Other Song You Think Of.
OMG, this is for anyone who is a Kyle/Paige fan. I read this from Issue 4 of Charmed Magazine and I quote (from Brad Kern)
"He was rewared for helping the girls and all that he's done by being made a Whitelighter. So that leaves the door open for a Piper-Leo-like relationship between Paige and Kyle."
Anywho, it's time for me to do the homework from hell. Until next chapter, or until I review one of your stories! Hehe.
