"There's nothing to eat in this house!" Phoebe declared in a huff as she walked into the living room.
''What?'' Piper blinked as she looked up at Phoebe's unexpected declaration. "Excuse me? Phoebe, I just baked a pie last night." Piper remarked. They were running low on groceries and she hadn't have time to shop, with the demon problems and all.
"Well, they're all gone!" Phoebe replied, taking a seat on the couch and groaning as she held her stomach. ''So hungry...I think I'm dying.'' Phoebe dramatically whimpered.
"How can they already be gone?" Piper asked, blinking as she tried to wrap her head around what she learned.
"I don't know!" Phoebe said, throwing her arms up in the air. "There was plenty pie there last night, but now it's all gone! If you didn't eat it and I didn't eat it, then that leaves two people and Prue told me she didn't do it! Consider how hungry she looked when I brought it up, I believe her."
''Alright, I'll go shopping and whip up a large meal tonight. Can you hold off until then?''
''I'll...'' Phoebe stopped and gasped. ''Try.'' she finished resulting in Piper rolling her eyes. Taking out her phone she dialed a number.
''Naruto? Yeah, I'm going grocery shopping and I'm hoping you can come over and help make desert.''
Just a few hours later, Naruto arrived home to find Piper love in the kitchen. It was nothing unusual to Piper surrounded by her cookbooks, pots, and pans, but tonight was different. She was wearing an apron with tight shorts that showed off that infamous Halliwell ass and a tank top.
Piper turned to him with a bright smile. "Oh, I'm glad you can come over Naruto. You're just in time to help me try out a new recipe."
And like any male greeted with a sexy sight Naruto muttered the following intelligent response. ''Huh?''
''You wouldn't happen to know who ate the last of the desert I made last night?'' she asked, her body becoming dangerously close to Naruto's as she made slow steps towards him.
''No...'' he drawn out rather suspiciously as he averted his eyes only for Piper to steal a quick kiss.
''Chocolate?'' she replied as Naruto chuckled nervously.
''Fine, I admit it. I love your cooking. Did you do something with your hair?'' he asked as Piper chuckled.
''Nice try...'' she said as she poked him in the chest. ''Try not to eat us out of house and home." she said as Naruto nodded, going into automatic male auto-pilot as he gazed at her luscious body.
''Naruto!'' she stated, drawing his attention.
''Huh?'' he repeated again. Even after all this time he could still be a bit hopeless. That night everyone was enjoying themselves and conversing over dinner. And with that the second of their seven day break came and with. As such things began to progress nicely as the sisters finally began conversing with the allies Naruto always talk about. ''No more fake nails and if you wish to paint them a certain color you can always send for the special blend we use.'' Ana clarified, doing strenuous movements without a hint of slowing down and speaking. Sure enough it was not as easy as she was making it, as Piper was struggling to keep up. ''Its made of a special supplement that nourishes our nails and sharpen them.''
''Sharpen them enough and you won't need a knife.'' Ana added with an impish grin. Ana was a second generation Lycan who inherited lycanthropy from her mother. She was the closest person nearby who could help Piper learn more about controlling her condition.

Meanwhile, Prue had at last located Naruto. Naruto stood there, looking up at the sky. She shook her head, longing for the days when dating was simple and she didn't have to worry about demons and warlocks randomly attacking her. Prue couldn't help but smile, it was difficult to believe someone who was just so free-spirited and caring could be a powerful and vicious fighter who would kill someone at a moment's notice. He was no murderer, he fought for his precious people and he didn't need any other reason. She then noticed something flash in his eyes, his eyes narrowing and a fierce look forming on his face.
What she was witnessing now could only be described as frustration. Worry creased her forehead, and concern pulled at her heart. Who or what of all things could be unnerving Naruto? Why now? A week hadn't passed. Then again that was a little joke between the quartet concerning the evils that specifically focused on going after them. Who was to say that countless other evils weren't following a different schedule and would be in fact stalking someone right now. A loud sneeze shook her out of her thoughts as Naruto used a tissue to wipe his nose, following with using some hand sanitizer. Prue groaned, seeing Naruto going back to his normally cheerful look and realizing she worried herself over a sneeze.
Once his eyes met hers, and even as her heart skipped a beat and she cautiously waved hello, she saw his grin grow even wider.
When she was within hearing distance, Prue spoke, "Hi."
''Hi.''
A pause skipped between them, ''So, what are we doing today?''
Naruto gazed at her mouth as she spoke to him. Her lips looked so soft and inviting, and he knew instinctively that they would be every bit as soft and supple to the touch. ''I haven't thought of anything yet. I think we should just listen to our whims.''
'''Sounds good...''
Prue leaned in and stood on her tip toes. Her tongue slipping through his sweet lips, and all other thoughts were gone. She let her hands rest upon his muscular chest as she kissed him deeply.
He grasped her gently, his hands rubbing her arms as he brought her even closer against his body. His eager mouth kissed her back, he began to rub against hers vibrantly.
Their tongues dueled sweetly, rubbing and twisting in ways as their kiss grew steadily in passion, each pouring all their love for the other into the heated embrace of sweet mouths. A growl escaped Naruto's mouth along with Prue's gasp of delight were swallowed by each other's mouths. There romantic moment of course was interrupted by a cry.
''Whoo! Get'er done!'' by the same damn guy from the roller-rink.
'Damnit' the couple thought as they made their way away from the scene. Sure enough, their whims led to taking a trip out deep into the country side to look at the stars.
While the stars shone so brightly a person could read by it, Prue stood in her tank top, Goosebumps alight on her skin and a shiver on her lips. Naruto was in his usual and plain clothes, simple black pants and an orange t-shirt. With that said he moved closer and held out his hand as a fireball formed in his hand.
Prue was startled for a moment before being entranced by the small ball of heat as it illuminated the spot and causing warmth to wash over her. ''I swear, is there anything you can't do?''
''I can't breathe in space,'' he answered her cheekily. ''Still working on that.'' he said as the heat intensified. ''Would you like me to intensify the fire more? I couldn't help but notice you were a bit cold.''
"Now, why would you want to do that when you could warm me up yourself?"
Naruto chuckled in response to Prue's question. He moved closer, placing one hand on her shoulder, leaning in just enough to brush the tips of their nose together in an Eskimo-kiss.
"I like the way you think Miss Halliwell.'' he said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and began kissing her passionately.

My Thoughts

More gripes on why the Post Prue season era fails. Since most people don't know about tropes, analyze stuff, or are easily entertained (therefore justifying Viewers Are Moron mindset of many executives and such) they don't question things. More people should study literature and good writing. For those who you who are wondering, I am taking a Writing class at the moment, which means my writing can only steadily improve.
Another problem with Season 4 (the best of the later five season sadly enough) was that the sisters didn't grieve or mention Prue enough. Piper and Phoebe were never given time to grieve and should have waited on introducing Paige until the third or fourth episode, thereby giving Prue's sisters and her fans a chance to mourn her rather than the crap about Cole becoming the Source, which should've been held off until S5.
Now, age isn't always an indicator of leadership. Someone being the leader because they are the oldest in the family is such a shallow and bad president. Anyway what if Paige would have been a leader? A bit more on the free-spirited side that focused on protecting innocents-the reason for their powers-not just on vanquishing the antagonist of the day.
Some of them were just designated villains of the day to feel a quota to add something to go along with the badly written romance problem and angles. Just too many problems became soap operish at times.
Paige as the leader would've allowed Piper to continue to act as the middle sister, the heart of the family, and concentrate on her own family. Had that happened, you wouldn't be hearing me grumble as much about her, because if she could've concentrated on her family rather than leading, I'm sure Holly would've forced Kern to allow Piper to remain the same wonderful, warm, sweet but snarky Piper we all loved during the earlier seasons, while still growing as a person.
Though I do admit the earlier seasons could have been handled as well, and have more character development of Prue hovering her sisters a little less so they could grow.
Ha. But seriously, I can't understand why she sold her club P3 to have a restaurant? The club was well-going and I know cooking is Piper's true interest, still it bothers me. She could have just easily saved up money and got the restaurant a little later down the line.
All and all you can't just force someone into a leader role. Piper was never raised to be a big sister/"leader" like Prue was, and thus, she mostly lacked the personality required for a good leader. Being the middle child/"mediator" her entire life, Piper had developed a "shy and gentle" personality, and was most skilled as the "peace-maker" between her two extroverted sisters, Prue & Phoebe. Piper was the "heart" of the Halliwell sisters; she balanced out the other two. Writers that cared should have easily been able to do better.
And before any of you start, if an amateur like me can have these thoughts and note these things, then professional writers should have more than know what they were doing. Piper was far too cold-hearted in the later seasons as a result.
Now some thoughts on Id, Super Ego, and the Ego. Now for those of you who don't know, the Id, represents emotional and instinctual desires; the Superego, which represents the logical and intellectual reasoning (or rules and social conventions, which is how Freud actually used the term); and the Ego, which reconciled the Id and Superego. Likewise, the Freudian Trio consists of three characters: one who acts emotionally and instinctively, one who acts with cold, passionless logic and one who reconciles the two conflicting ideals. Sometimes the Id/Superego dynamics play out with just two characters, but in those cases the representatives of opposing sides must learn to negotiate with each other.
Phoebe is the ID, Piper the Ego, and Prue the Superego. Keep that in mind for future rants. Like for instance, "Which Prue Is It, Anyway?", Prue uses a spell that create two duplicates, and to distinguish them, they each wear different colored sweaters: Real Prue is the Superego in a black sweater. Pink sweater is Ego and Blue Sweater is Id. And if you haven't realized I'm going to have fun with that episode then where the hell have you been?
Now on to more thoughts. I might bring up the same points again because I have a terrible memory. Wyatt's character. I don't like it. By that I mean I like the character but hate the concept. The mythology of the Twice-Blessed business, and how his powers were so random and virtually god-like. As much as people complain about Naruto in my Unleashed Series, at least I have several background training, traveling to different dimensions and being trained by people, experimentation and a shit load of other stuff that gets convoluted at times with the time travel and shit.
Now let me list Wyatt's power (and this is not including Season 9) combustive orbing, conjuration, thought projection, telekinesis, energy balls, voice manipulation, molecular dispersion, pyrokinesis, force field generation, and energy waves PLUS all of his Whitelighter powers (orbing, sensing, healing, omnilingualism) PLUS his hybrid power with telekinetic orbing and the ability to cast spells, scry, and make potions? AND he's the "King of Magic"?
First of all, where the hell did some of these damn powers come from? Neither the whitelighters nor anyone in the Halliwell line have displayed force field generation, voice manipulation or other such things. I'm pretty sure I missed some powers. Any threat to this kid is just plot induced stupidity at its greatest.
Now the final part, I'm going to argue the good vs evil concept and think about it from both sides.
Now according to a particular trope, neither good nor evil is the ideal state because...well, that varies. Usually it's because without evil, good becomes too extreme and ends up doing things that aren't actually very good at all. First of all, I hate that people treat us like idiots. People are not going to become crazed zealots and trigger happy idiots without the presence of evil, because if those people were truly good they wouldn't murder people unjustly and if we consider that if we were to come to such a situation, that the extremism in his very cartoony fashion could not be considered too good as there is no or was no evil as to define it. That's closer to being an extreme Lawful Evil than too good.
What I'm thinking is that in most medias or such that attempt to portray the concepts of Good and Evil alongside Balance and Chaos don't seem to do the research. Anyone going so far to maintain balance is nothing more than a madmen. Its also a stupid concept in basically saying don't even try to be good, because good in its purest form is just a different kind of evil in disguise. Be neutral, because being neutral is good. Which in itself is once again dumb because isn't being perfectly neutral the best kind of good? In other words, it seems people only want to go so far in these concepts and then stop.
Balance is good in the sense of being desirable and not in the best of terms in the greater scheme of good and evil. Also people also only want to use one definition of good and evil, and ignoring shades of grey. Shade of Grey usually under the shroud of 'Greater Good.'
Now here is a passage I'm borrowing from a discussion on this conception.
''It also depends on the type of "evil". Usually this trope is used in a rather stupid way, but sometimes it has some truth to it. Greed is a good example as a type of evil that can be considered "necessary", as while it can cause problems, humanity has basically gained everything it has thanks to, well, wanting go to work so they can have money to buy things, and society largely developed because people wanted more than what they had. Going to war is sometimes necessary and hatred can be used to help fight an enemy. In a lot of not too obvious ways, "evil" is a part of everyday life. I suppose in a series where evil is personified in the forces of darkness, permanently getting rid of them would require getting rid of what makes us human. This trope isn't as simple as most writers portray it as, but it does kind of make sense at a larger level.''
That is a great look on different concepts and how evil does have its places and there is more than one way to look at it. All and all its thought to be philosophically impossible to purge all evil anyway. Though perfect goodness is something to be strived for, it's an unreachable goal. This doesn't mean we shouldn't try, but it does mean we can't delude ourselves into thinking we'll ever be "done" ridding the world of all evil—thiskind of attitude is what leads to your Well Intentioned Extremists.
Once more we have to think about looking at things from more than one angle. You can't just take concepts from such a concept of Balance in relation to Good vs Evil that you want to use and ignore everything else. Now there are other things to consider. Some people believe only having good means no one will act evil and it eliminates free will because no one will be capable of committing evil acts. There is also the fact that Good and Evil are physical forces, unlike the subjective interpretations in the real world. Confusion comes from similar but different definitions of what most people mean when they say "good and evil" and what fictional writers mean when they say it. Of course, the entire fantasy concept of Good and Evil is nonsensical anyways. And its easy to confuse what is known as Good with Light. In other words its better to say the forces in Charmed are better described as Light instead of Good as later seasons have actions by so called Good Characters that can not be considered good.
Now lets take a look at Evil, Neutral, and Good alignments. Here is another good point. '' Now considered Evil as caring about yourself and not others, in other words, being selfish. 'Neutral' (on the good/evil axis) is caring about yourself and others to the extent that you will not actively hurt them, in other words, your average person. 'Good' is caring about others more than yourself, which could be called altruism or charity. This makes a balance make sense—caring too much about everyone means you can't hurt anyone...which means you won't kill the innocent little kid, but neither will you kill the mass-murdering psycho. This is being too Good, not too good, the latter having no in-game mechanic. And Evil is suddenly not only not evil, but not bad—if you only care about yourself, you can make progress work very quickly. This is why Lawful Evil can be so effective at turning everything on it's head. Your alignment is your intention—which isn't necessarily whether you do good, it's whether you are Good. Good people can do evil things, as clearly letting that mass-murderer who has confirmed s/he will kill again live when you are the only one who can stop him/her is.''
Henceforth being too good, can have a negative effect in the sense of how its done because of the moral compass of the character. Then we also have to remember Good and Evil will also be subjective as some people will cry for Good and Evil balance while another views it as Good if Balance, and Evil is Imbalance. Which when you think about it, is it possible to have too much Balance? I mean its balance isn't it? How can you have too much balance when the very concept of balance is well, what the word is defined is.
Basically, moderation is good, extremism is evil. Coming at it from another direction, opposition is necessary to give things context. If there is a positive there has to be a negative, if something is desirable something else must be undesirable by definition. Accepting this as true means that evil is necessary.
The balance of good and evil doesn't necessarily mean it's an equal balance, by which I mean, one unit of evil can be many times as heavy as a unit of good, so to speak. A square inch of gold is much heavier than a square inch of earth, after all. Also, who's to say that good turns to evil when the balance gets too far towards good? If anything it's far more likely that evil would spontaneously be created to balance it out. We're talking about universal forces after all. And if extreme good does become evil, it's predicated on the concepts that a: human beings are flawed and b: choice is necessary for goodness. The only way to get the world in a state where it would be that good would be to eliminate the flaws by eliminating choice. Going back to opposition, a perfectly good society would be a completely zombified society, because without the contrast of evil there can be no good. There would be no spectrum, we'd all be locked to one state.
And finally does Evil really need to exist? Natural disasters. Viruses. They're forces of nature. Do you call them good or evil? No. They're just' inconvenient, but so what? Good doesn't NEED Evil. Natural disasters in any form of media can be accepted and use to help define morality. People can be fearful and selfish and they wouldn't be classified as people and that would leave people the opportunity to choose to do the morally right thing and defined on the opposite end of the latter in a matter closer to good.
''Evil is nothing more than Goodness spoiled. We don't have an idea of evil unless we have an idea of what GOOD is, because, as I said, Evil is parasitic, it is something good gone HORRIBLY wrong. Free will is something that is good. And people can FREELY choose to do good things or things that don't really have a moral label to them. I mean, take eating or drinking or cleaning your teeth. Are those really "moral" or are they just good for your body's upkeep? What we're discussing here is matters of the spirit. So, I repeat...Evil cannot exist without Good. There shouldn't need to be a balance. The only reason there IS one is because Good is just so damn patient and kind and compassionate that, in its infinite mercy, it tries to allow Evil to see the light and finally, one day, freakin' GET that it can't win. ''
So actions relating to free will and the human condition can be done without needing a moral compass as well. All and all what one chooses in definition and actions is up to that individual. All I did was wish they put a little more effort into the show if they were going to get into this highly argued subject.
