Summary: Vincent was wounded badly and Wyatt can't heal. Hank's powers aren't working in fact none of the whitelighters in the family are, and Mel… Mel's on a warpath. Can Leo and Piper stop her before she gets her hands on Fox or are they destined to lose her again? Pacey's been up to something, which may or may not be good or bad. And can Parker get Jacob back together with Sara or is she not cupid enough to get the job done or hell is she not strong enough to face her own views on love? What will Nix tell Lex to his proposal of love will he like it? Or will if force him to leave again?
AN: The title says it all, or does it?
1x09: Life with a Whitelighter Part 2
Mel's voiceover: "People like to say that you'll always be around,"
Mel: Boomed into the manor with Vincent next to her, she looks up to her parents her Aunts and Uncles, "Help!"
Mel's voiceover: "They say that you can do anything,"
Leo: "What happened?"
Mel: Shakes her head, "A Darklighter," She looks over to Henry, "I called Hank but I don't know where he was, are they okay?"
Piper: Looking at her worried, "They're in the attic, fighting demons," Mel runs to the attic, "MEL!"
Mel's voiceover: As Mel runs to the attic trying to get there in time. "That you were made to do lots of things,"
Hank: Gets ready to throw a potion at the last demon, when Mel ran into the room and froze the room. "Mel?" he saw the blood on her shirt and stopped what he was doing, "What happened?"
Mel: "I'm fine do you have anything to hold him? We can't kill him yet,"
Wyatt: Saw the fear in his little sister's blue eyes, "Crystals, demon,"
Mel's voiceover: "Some of them good,"
Just then a crystal cage, encaged the demon, he didn't unfreeze.
Chris: Walking closer to her, "Mel what happened?"
Mel: "A Darklighter shot Vincent, I have to," She ran down the stairs and they ran after her, she walked into the living room, Vincent didn't have a shirt on, and the arrow was out of his arm, but as Leo tried to heal it again, it didn't heal he looked up to Mel, "Why can't it heal?"
Leo: He was looking as confused as she felt, "I don't know,"
Henry: As she looked at him for help next, "We all tried Mel it's not working, for us,"
Mel: She looks back to Hank seeing as he was the only one that hadn't tried, "Hank can you?"
Hank: Walked over to Vincent and tried to heal the wound but nothing happened, "What the hell?"
Mel: Tears filled her blue eyes, "This can't be happening!" She clung to Wyatt and Chris, both held onto her letting her cry, "Fuck he can't die,"
Wyatt: Worried, Mel was breaking down faster than he knew how to help rebuild her, "Don't worry we'll try everything we can,"
Chris: Seeing Wyatt's fear and his inability to say the right things in the right way to sooth her, "We'll be our best,"
Mel: "I just want him to live,"
Leo walks over to Mel and takes her in his arms.
Leo: "I know honey and we'll safe him I promise you we'll do it,"
Mel: Letting the words slip out before she could stop it, "I hope your right dad,"
Leo: Eyes went wide as did Pipers, "Do you trust me?"
Mel: "I do… daddy I trust you,"
Leo: Sharing a look with Piper, "Good," Knowing how much the word hurt her as much as it made his heart melt. "Good,"

Parker was sitting next to Sara drinking some tea.
Sara: She sits back on her chair, "How much is he paying you to do this?"
Parker: Looks up from her tea, a kind smile on her face, "I'm a cupid; I do it for free,"
Sara: Clearly shocked, "Really? Last I checked Parker Valentín doesn't do things like this," There's as pause, "I always wondered, is it Parker Valentín or is it Parker Valentine?"
Parker: "It's Valentín but I go by both, I like Valentine more, but I never really knew why, in fact so does my family, my father sometimes just calls me Parker Valentine, even though I keep trying him I'm a Halliwell, he just keeps on calling me, by that name," She raised the cup to her mouth again, it was really good tea; "And well I am now a cupid," She stopped drink the tea and sat up and faced Sara, "So why the suddenly feeling change?"
Sara: She now looked puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Parker: She smiles now setting her cup on her lap and getting ready to get to work on Sara, "You care for him yet you don't want to get involved with him?" Her ring shined a red-ish yellow helping her to keep going, "Sara come on I know how Jacob can be! But he seems to be in love with you,"
Sara: She looks down clearly affected by what Parker has just said… "He was in love with you before he met me," …though now in a good way.
Parker: Frowns now seeing how much harder it was getting, "Look, if you think telling me that, is going to make me want to kill him or you, must I remind you that I'm Halliwell I've dealt with demons, that were pain in the asses. So Sara trust me when I say this, your attitude problems don't fucking scare me! Now why the sudden change?"
Sara: Looks down, "Because he's different,"
Parker: Now it's her turn to look puzzled, "What do you mean?"
Sara: She drank from her tea, "He used to be sweeter, and he used to be different,"
Parker: "What's he now?"
Sara: A gleam of anger in her eyes, "Jealous and I'm a big believer that if you're jealous it's because you did something. Plus I know that's how he is when he's done something,"
Parker: Nodding her head, "I can understand that,"
Sara: With a straight face, "Plus he's not that great in bed,"
Parker: Face turning red, "What?"
Sara: Started to laugh, "Fuck Parker I'm kidding about the last one," She looks away almost pained, "Look it's just…" She looks back to Parker who again has the kind gentle smile on her face, it makes Sara feel even worse for what she's about to say… "I used to feel madly in love with him, and I'm scared he'll do what he did to you to me," …is something Parker's never known.
Parker: Puts her hand on her shoulder, "I can understand…" Her brain stopped, had she just heard Sara correctly? "Wait what did he do to me?" No she couldn't have, he never did anything to her, "Sara what do you mean?"
Sara: Now looking really enraged with her past actions. Seeing as Parker didn't know and she was acting very kind treating her as a friend instead of the woman that, "He cheated on you with me,"
Parker's shocked face.
Mel's voiceover: "Other's not so much,"
-x-x-x-
Things happen but we don't really know why,
Once more you tell those lies to me,
Why can't you just be straight up with honesty? (Honesty...)
Torn apart at the seams and my dreams turn to tears
I'm not feeling this situation.

various shots of the city the last one stops to show a busy street. Underlined by the song: 'Headstrong,' by Trapp.
Mel's voiceover: "But they say you have a purpose for being brought into this world and that it's good beyond what anyone's ever seen,"
Piper: "Okay explain from the being what happened?"
They where in the kitchen everyone but Leo Andy Coop and Henry they had chosen to stay with Vincent just to make sure that he was okay.
Mel: Biting her nails just like a Halliwell, "I went home after I had a fight with Vince, then I blew up his favorite chair, I had a heart-to-heart with Silver, I screamed his name and then Fox entered the room, we talked back and forth, then Vince came home and then he said something about all Whitelighters knowing all Darklighters and something about them being magical cousins or something I don't know, but the point is someone sent Fox to shoot me but as he shot at me Vince got in the way of the arrow and me and it shot him, and I called for everyone but no one came so I boomed over here, and now Vince can't be heal!"
Prue: Taking the lead, "Someone needs to go get Pacey and Nix and someone else needs to go talk to the Elders, this has them written all over it,"
Mel: Turning to look over to her fearful, "Would they really do that? Not let you heal him because of me?"
They didn't want to tell her yes but it was true the elders didn't trust her and they'd do anything for the whole world be with them on their ideas. Even if they meant killing who, was in her life to turn her, elders weren't smart they only did things that they thought would help mankind, they forgot, that times had changed, that demons could be good, that prophecies could be wrong.
Piper: "No," She looks over to Hank, "Hank can you go get Lex and Nix, and Paige and you go to the Elders?"
Mel's voiceover: "That if you could, you could be everything you ever dreamed of,"
Paige/Hank: Son so much like his mother, "Gotcha boss-lady!"
Prue: Looks back to Mel Chris and Wyatt, "Now you three go back to the living room, we'll try and think of something that might work, a potion or a spell."
Mel: "Thank you,"
Piper: "We'll do anything we can for you Mel,"
Mel: "I know," Wanting to add 'mom' but something wouldn't let her.
Mel's voiceover: "Do anything you ever wanted,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
As they walked into the living room.
Chris: "You okay?"
Mel: "No,"
Wyatt: "Don't worry we'll kill all the Elders if we have to,"
Mel: She looks almost beaten down and not able to even think clearly anymore, "God I just don't know what to do anymore!"
Chris: "Well we still have the demon up there we could try to talk to it,"
Mel: "That could work,"
Wyatt: Not knowing what to say but wanting to be useful too, "Look we why don't we just orb our butts to wherever this Fox guy is and kick his ass?"
Mel: Looking as if that was a better idea hell one that she was even thinking about doing, "Wy I like that idea really I do," She heard Vincent groaned and she walked over to him forgetting about anything that she'd have said to Wyatt on that subject, "Hey you okay?"
Vincent: He looks around to where he was lost and in pain, "Where are we Mel?"
Mel: "At the manor, don't try to move too much dad said it would hurt,"
Vincent: Looks at her shocked, "Did you call Leo dad?"
Mel: She nods, "It slipped out, I was crying and he was hugging me and I just said I trust you dad, and then he hugged me harder, and it made me feel a little better,"
Vincent: Chuckles, "I like that, you're learning, one parent down only one to go!"
Mel: She smiles but it didn't reach her eyes, "And you'll be there when it happens,"
Vincent: Started to cough again, she wiped the sweat away from his forehead with a clean rag, "For some reason I don't think I will,"
Mel: She gives him a stern look, "You will be,"
Vincent's thoughts: "If only I was,"
Mel: Hearing his thoughts, "You will be," She touches his face, "Trust me,"
Vincent: "Always, no matter what,"
Mel's voiceover: "All you had to do was give life your best,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Wyatt had pulled Chris away because he could see that he wasn't agreeing with half of the ideas that Wyatt was throwing out there and he had only thrown one out there. So now they were up in Wyatt's room.
Wyatt: Threw his little brother a questioning glace, "What? Why are you looking at me as if I was a demon?"
Chris: Rolling his eyes, "Have you lost your mind? You can't just tell Mel that it'd be a good idea to go after Fox!"
Wyatt: Trying to get out of the dog house, "She's not nine Chris! She's old enough to kill demons god knows she done it on her own for the past 11 years!"
Chris: Having enough with Wyatt's stupidity, "THAT'S IT!" He threw a punch at Wyatt, Wyatt blocked it and hit him back on his shoulder making him get hurt he groaned but jumped at Wyatt and started to hit him harder in his face. "You stupid moron can't you understand she shouldn't have had to fight them alone!!"
Wyatt: Kicks him in the groin and Chris falls off of Wyatt. "Sorry,"
Chris: Holding his groin, "Me too,"
Wyatt sits up and helps Chris sit up too, both smile.
Wyatt: Runs a hand through his long blond hair, "We can't keep doing this Chris,"
Chris: He sighs knowing that he was right, "What? Fighting over what to do when things come up with Mel? Or just fighting in general? Are you getting to old to take me on Grandpa Wyatt? I mean you are almost 30,"
Wyatt: Rolling his eyes, "Yea I'm old I get it," He shook his head, "I'm scared Chris,"
Chris: Fear showing in his sea-green eyes, "About what Wy?"
Wyatt: Looking into his brother's eyes, Chris could see the fear in his deep blue eyes, "Losing her again, the first time was my fault,"
Chris: Knowing that his older brother always blamed himself for Mel getting kidnapped, "It wasn't your fault Wy,"
Wyatt: Not able to look into Chris's eyes, "Yes it was," He's fighting back tears, "If I could have taken on the demon she'd never have left, just as if I had taken on the demon, Luke wouldn't be dead and Banc…"
Chris: "HEY! That wasn't your fault you had no power with what happened to Mel you where to young and with Luke, you were only 26 Wy you couldn't save the world,"
Wyatt: "But I couldn't be save my own so…"
Chris: Grabs Wyatt in a bear hug, "Listen to me Wy, it wasn't your fault, you should have always listened to B, she always told you that,"
Wyatt: Dries his tears, "I'm sorry I'm acting like a moron,"
Chris: "Hey it helps remind me that you're a good little bear,"
Wyatt: "Shut up Chris, we have to go help Mel now,"
Chris: Changing the subject just a little to lighten the mood, "She's our little sister Wy she' makes us do crazy things,"
Wyatt: "They were invented to make us big brother fight weren't they?"
Chris: Chuckles, "Yea, come on we have to help save Vincent,"
Wyatt: Looking back at him again, "Think we will?"
Chris: Fear in his sea-green eyes, "I don't know Wy, but I hope we do,"
Wyatt: He nods understanding his point, "Me too little brother me too,"
Mel's voiceover: "That you had to act the way you were taught,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Hank walked into his little sister's office, and he couldn't believe his big brown eyes, he found both Nix and Lex deep in a kiss. He closed his eyes and orbed out thinking that maybe they should just get five more minutes.
Nix: Pulls away, even though it felt so damn right, "We have to stop," And she looked into Lex's blue eyes, "And Lex I do care for you and I will always will,"
Lex: "Why do I get the feeling you're about to dump me and we haven't even got out?"
Nix: She walked away trying in vain to make him understand, "I'm not about to dump you,"
Lex: He gave her his puppy dog eyes, "Then why pull away?"
Nix: She got closer to him, "Because I'm scared," He held her in his arms, "How do I know you won't leave me? How do I know you'll stay this time?"
Lex: "You have to hold onto my word,"
Nix: "I'll stay with you under one condition,"
Lex: Gulps he was fearful and she felt it, "Okay,"
Nix: A second ago she was going to tell him no, but then the demons poured into the room and she had jumped on top of him knowing full well if it had been him that saw the demons he'd have done the same, "I'll be with you, as long as we don't tell anyone,"
Lex: Hating this, he wanted to hold her in front of her family he wanted to hold her in front of the world and not live in fear, "Okay," But having her even for a second was better than not having her at all, "If that's what you want," He had gone through that and it had been hell, "I can do that,"
Nix: "Good now can I hit you?" He looked and felt confused, "Hank orbed in and saw us kissing he's about to come back," Out of nowhere she slapped him, he screamed, no way in hell could he say that Halliwell woman didn't know how to hit, "Stop kissing me your stupid moron! We just had to fight demons now let's go…" She stopped and looked back to a smug looking Hank, "What the hell are you doing here?"
Hank: The smile leaves and dread hits his brown eyes, "We have trouble, Vincent's been hurt,"
Lex: He looks back to Nix now she looks worried, "Fuck,"
Hank: "Yea, we have to go find Pacey do you know where he is?"
Nix: Looks even more worried, "He was supposed to check in with Parker or me, like an hour ago, he hasn't shown,"
Hank: "There's only one thing that boy can be doing, but we don't have time to go looking in the Underworld for him, let's just go home,"
He orbed out with Lex next to him thinking it better for him to take him with him than leave him to get slapped if he only knew. Nix looks around and pulls out her cell phone, presses the number two on her speed-dial.
Nix: "Don't say anything, I don't give a shit about what you're doing or who your fucking hunting, Vince was hurt and you damn well know Mel's a wreck, just get home, we'll deal with your demon another day,"
Mel's voiceover: "No matter how painful the outcome would be,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Pacey: "Okay," He hung up and looked at Jane. "So tell me again,"
Jane: "What do you want to know Child?"
Pacey: "We both know I'm not a child Grace, now please explain why you're so into my family," He leaned in closer to her knowing full well he had to leave but also knowing that, "Why you are watching over Parker and Mel more than any other member of the thirdte…" he couldn't he had to understand more.
Jane: "I'll stick to Jane, Dex, it's safer,"
Pacey: "I haven't been Dex in years you know that, I always go by the name of my new life,"
Jane: "But for some reason I feel the need to say," Her eyes shined in a white glow, "That you're enjoying being a Halliwell again,"
Pacey: He shakes his head, "You try remembering the fact that you were once Alan Halliwell and married to your Grandmother and you tell me if you want to do everything the same?"
Jane: "If it makes you feel better,"
Pacey: "I don't want to know about you being married to my cousin's past life, I'm sure Hank is just fine when it comes to love, he has Parker to deal with and even though she pretends not to be a cupid the girl was born for it," He sat up more now, "Just tell me what's the big deal, with you and my cousins?"
Jane: "What if I told you that in the coming days, that Parker shall make a choice that will help free Mel of her pain and her guilt,"
Pacey: He looks down shamed for asking, "He's going to die isn't he?"
Jane: She holds his hands, "If I told you, you wouldn't do everything you had to,"
Pacey: Looks down to their hands, "What good of a future person are you if you can't tell me anything?"
Jane: She lets go, "You still think that your future is saved?"
Pacey: "Just tell me," He stood up getting ready to leave, "Did she stop it?"
Jane: Sitting more into the chair, "Depends on what 'it' you're talking about? You know Pacey there are a lot of 'its' in the future, some of them good, others not so much,"
Pacey: Looks down, "The one that is wrong with this future,"
Jane: She frowns, "They're a lot of things that are wrong with this future because you most always remember, nowhere is perfect and if it seems like it is, then it is not real," She smiles, "And she does help, just remember when she tells you to leave, listen to her, she's not as smart as the other Parker but, there's something about her that can save the world,"
Pacey: Nods, "Okay,"
Jane: He goes to leave now, "Oh and Pacey?" He turns back to her, "It's not all that great, but it's getting better every day,"
Pacey: "At least I have that,"
Jane: "She'll do what she has to in the end,"
Pacey: He sighs, "But what if it gets her killed," He looks into her eyes and for a second, he knows what he's always known, Parker wasn't going to ever make 23, "Wonderful," He cracks his neck, "I'm going to stop it I hope you know,"
He stars out and she smiles.
Jane: She stands, "If only you'd listen to me more, Pacey, she's not the only one that doesn't make it and even so she will, it is another age she cannot make it but again she is not alone," She looks around, "But she's not the only one you'll try to save, and in the end, it's not even in your hands," She looks into the darkness into the cave she once stood before, "Its all in his hands, and one things for sure, I won't miss him when he's dead, but I'll miss the man I married, I'll miss the father of my children, yes that is indeed who I shall miss,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Parker marched down Sara's stairs and Jacob had to do a quick pace to catch up to her. She stopped walking and glared back at him.
Jacob: "What happened?"
Parker: "Oh she happened to tell me that you cheated on me with her! And you'd always gave, me shit about cheating on you, you fucking bastard you stupid hypocrite!"
Jacob: Shellshock, "She told you?"
Parker: "What the fuck you're not even ashamed you stupid prick!"
Jacob: "Look Parker I was a jackass when I was a kid. I thought love was something that girls just used to get you to stay!"
Parker: "Well it wasn't!" She groans, "To think I wasted my fucking high school life on you! I could have been with Damian having fun! But no I was stuck with you. You fucking hypocritical prick!"
Jacob: Walks away from her a little, "I know I did wrong but fuck help me already! PLEASE!"
Parker: "Fuck off Jacob this is soooo now happening anymore I don't give a shit about what the cupids want from me this is fucking pushing it! Shit!"
Jacob: Knowing how wrong it was but he had to beg, "Please Parker I know I fucked up, with you, but I have real chance here with Sara, if I can get my shit together and I can! And I will! But please you have to help me not just because you're a cupid but because I need you to help me,"
Parker glared at him this was not her day.
Mel's voiceover: "And in return you'd get everything you ever wanted, if you lived your life the right way,"
Parker: Rolling her light green eyes, "Fine Jacob I'll help you!" She got closer to him almost scaring him, "But if I ever see you again, my cousin's fist will meet your face, and believe me I'm not talking about girly ass Pacey I'm talking about gorilla ass Henry JR!" Now he gulped everyone knew you didn't mess with a Halliwell woman you'd end up messing with Hank and Hank not only knew ways to hurt you in magic but he was the son of a former cop plus the Marines had turned him down because he had been to extreme, you didn't piss off someone that was too extreme by Marine standards, "Damn straight!" Knowing what he was thinking about, "Now let's go see how we can prove your cheating ass isn't going to cheat on Sara,"
Jacob: "Whatever you want Parker just don't tell Hank,"
Mel's voiceover: "The good way,"
-x-x-x-
Break

Mel's voiceover: "That no matter what life threw at you, if you stuck to the rules that you knew where true,"
Fox was pacing down in the Underworld, he knew that his boss had lied to him, but he didn't understand why. But as he walked though the Underworld and the demons around him looked at him and they crossed themselves he knew it was bad, and he knew he would die for what he had done to Vincent, he just pray someone killed him before Mel did, she wouldn't be to kind like she had been earlier, the next time they'd meet, he knew it'd be his last.
Main Demon: Sat in his thrown and watched as Fox entered his room but unlike the other times, the Darklighter showed no fear he entered into the room as if it was his last day alive, "Fox what brings your face into my Underworld?"
Fox: "This isn't your Underworld yet,"
Main Demon: "It will be soon,"
Fox: "No it will not, for when Vincent dies and we both know he will, Mel will come here and try and kill me,"
Main Demon: "She will not only try, she will do it,"
Fox: He looked uneasy at how easy the guy could just think of someone's death then again the damn demon was raised by an evil son of a bitch, "Look I just want to know was it worth it?"
Main Demon: "In time, I shall know, but even if it wasn't it's not like my life was on the line,"
Fox: "No only mines,"
Main Demon: "You have something to say? Please say it,"
Fox: Gulps, "Who is she and don't you dare tell me she's just a stupid whitelighter who is she?"
For the first time since his return to his rightful place at the throne he stood up and walked around Fox, almost as if he was circling around his next kill.
Main Demon: "Believe me, when she kills you for what you have done," He pads Fox on the shoulder, "You shall know,"
Fox just stood there and watched as he sat back down as if nothing just happened.
Mel's voiceover: "It would turn out fine,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Paige stood in front of a bunch of Elders.
Kevin: "Paige? What are you doing here?"
Paige: Stands and points to a glob it spins around and lands on the manor, a picture of Mel looking over a wounded Vincent, "I'm here Kevin because Vincent was shoot,"
Odin: "Oh?" As if he didn't already know that, Paige sighed yet again annoyed, "When was this? By whom?" She went to open her mouth and tell him when he cut her off, "By Mel?"
Sandra: "Uhm, Odin not now," She didn't know what to think about Mel but unlike most of the Elders she knew that any child from the Halliwell name couldn't be evil… well other than Wyatt that one future… oh and Ryan that other future, on second thought she knew that they could be evil but she knew that it wasn't likely that any of them in this future would be. Both Chris and Parker had made sure that they wouldn't be, "Paige, who was the Darklighter?"
Paige: "So you did know! I mean how else did you know it was a Darklighter?"
Kevin: "We felt a fellow Elder get hurt, and as you should know by now, Vincent is an Elder to be,"
Off of Paige's shocked face. She didn't know. She thought he was just half and half like Mel like her kids, not Elder to be, that changed everything and hell she knew this wasn't going to be easy.
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Vincent was sleeping now at least Mel thought he was sleeping she was scared to death. She didn't know if he was alive. He kept leaving her Empath radar and it was scaring her to hell.
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Mel's voiceover: "That you'd get the family,"
Wyatt was pacing in the attic he was on demon watch, though nothing was happening the demon was still frozen. He turns around as he sees Pacey star into the room. Pacey walks over to him as Hank Nix and Lex walk into the room followed by Chris.
Pacey: "What happened?"
Nix: Answering him even though he already knew this, "A Darklighter shot Vincent,"
Pacey: "I know you called, what I should have asked was, what has happened?"
Wyatt: "Nothing, we're waiting for Aunt Paige to get back with the information from the Elders,"
Pacey: "It was them,"
Lex: "You don't know that,"
Pacey: Gave him a dry look, "They stole, Max from us not that long ago,"
Nix: "No, Andy they didn't he wanted to go,"
Pacey: Not wanting to have this fight, he was tried of having it with Parker and those two never fought, "Look, just forget it," He sighed now, he had no idea what they could do, and he should have, he remembered all of his lifetimes, meaning he was running through all of the magical things that they could do, "So no one can heal him?" They shook there heads, "Emma tried?"
Ryan: Walking into the room with Silver by his left, "She can't make it and she wouldn't be able to, if Hank couldn't do it she can't,"
Pacey: "Has Mel tried?"
Chris: "Mel?"
Pacey: He nods, "Yes Mel she is half whitelighter, just like Wyatt," He looked at Wyatt who was looking at the demon with anger, "Why is Wyatt looking at that demon?"
Silver: "Because we have to watch it,"
Pacey turned to look at Chris he still didn't understand.
Chris: Sighing, "What Sil means, Andy is that, that demon was send here and Mel wants him alive so she can kick his ass,"
Pacey: Walks over to the book with a powerful look, "Okay, we'll need truth potions," He opened the book and looked up to Chris then to Nix, "Oh and you two, my name is Andrew, I go by Pacey if you like you may call me Andrew but do not call me Andy, got it?"
Chris/Nix: "Yes boss lady!"
Mel's voiceover: "The love that you needed,"
Pacey didn't comment because he knew if he did they'd go back in forth. Instead he chose to take out his anger in the book.
Paige: Orbing into the room, "Andy don't take out your anger on that old book,"
Just like clockwork in walked, Prue Piper and Phoebe.
Prue: "Paige I don't call you son Harry don't call mine Andy,"
Hank: "Aunt Prue my name is Hank, not Henry,"
Nix: "No your nickname is Hank but your name is Henry,"
Lex: "Aw you don't like your name,"
Chris: "Look who's talking Lexton,"
Lex: "At least it's not as bad as Damian,"
Nix: "What the hell have I ever told you? Didn't I ever tell you not to talk bad about your own brother?"
Lex: "Half brother," She glared at him making him smile, "What? His mother was a demon, it's not my fault that my mom fell in love with Derek Tiernan,"
Phoebe: "Lex don't call your father by his name I shudder to think what he'll do if he finds out,"
Chris: Smiling trying to make the mood even better, "He's not that bad my mother is hella worse,"
Lex: "Bull, Aunt Piper hasn't told on me,"
Wyatt: He couldn't help himself he had to join in, "The word your looking for Lex is yet,"
Piper: Knowing full well what they where doing but other things needed to get done first, "Enough children,"
Chris: "See,"
Piper: Sent him a glare he smiles at her making her shake her head, "Now Paige what did you learn?"
Mel's voiceover: "That you would be charmed, in everything,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Mel was looking down to Vincent he had a paler glow around his face. He opened his eyes, and she knew that even doing that hurt him severely.
Mel: "Hey don't do anything that makes you hurt,"
Vincent: "Where's?"
Mel: Knowing what he was going to say, "Everyone else?" He nodded, "Their in the attic, I think Aunt Paige got home," He smiles at her easy manner of throwing out the 'Aunt' word as if it didn't used to freak her out. "I know,"
Vincent: "Where's your mom?"
Mel: "She's around," He grabbed her hand, and she looked into his eyes, the pain was there but so was some anger, "What's wrong?"
Vincent: "I'm just mad I won't be able to see it,"
Mel: "You will,"
Vincent: He sighed, and looked at the sister's melancholy faces and to the cousin's furious ones as they entered the room, "No I won't,"
Paige: "I went to see the Elders,"
Vincent: "I know,"
Paige: "They told me what they couldn't help you,"
Vincent: "I know, but thank…"
Mel: "THEY WHAT?"
Vincent/Piper: "Mel,"
Mel: "Those sons of bitches! How dare they do this to you, it's not your fault it's mine!"
Vincent: Held her hand tighter, "Mel," She was afraid to look into his eyes, "Mel, look at me," She did so, "You have to understand something for me,"
Mel: "If you're going to say something stupid like you're going to die, keep it to yourself I don't want to hear that kind of crap, because I have news for you, you won't,"
Vincent: "Everyone dies Mel,"
Mel: "But it's only the ones I love that die sooner,"
Vincent: "You'll see me around,"
Mel: "No I won't, you'll be like that Max guy that Parker told me about, they did this to her too, they took her best friend from her, and I'll be damned if they do that to me!"
She got up and let go of his hand.
Vincent: "Mel,"
Mel: "No, if I can't save you, then I'll do the next best thing," She looks away from his eyes, "I'll avenge you," She looks over to her mother and Aunts, "Excuse me,"
Mel's voiceover: "Because you went on the good path even though you thought it would hurt more,"
They all looked at her as she walked to the attic. The husbands walked into the room from the kitchen.
Piper: Looking at him in fear, "Leo,"
Leo: "Come on,"
They both walked up the stairs after Mel, Vincent looks up to Nix he coughs in pain.
Vincent: He sighed making him again have more pain, "Uh… Mel…"
Nix: "She'll be back went to get some air,"
Vincent: He chuckles still in pain, "No she won't, she went after him she's going to do everything she can to kill him,"
Hank: Looking at him with sorrow in his eyes and a hint of shame there too, "Sorry man, I can't heal you,"
Vincent: "It's destiny,"
Prue: "What do you mean?"
Vincent: "I'm an Elder too be, they won't let you heal me, because I'm meant to die to become one of them,"
Lex: "Like Max?"
Vincent: "Except they'll force me to stay up there,"
Pacey: "And he has the exception to come back home, he is the one that doesn't want to,"
Vincent: "Tell her I'm sorry,"
Nix: Sits next to him, she wets his face, "You're going to make it, Vince you have to, or Mel…"
Vincent: "She's going to go evil, for a second or a day or two, she won't be able to stop the pain from getting to her, but you have to promise that you'll save her when she does,"
Pacey flinched he knew this was true, Jane had told him, but he didn't know if he wanted to believe it still. Something made him not want to trust her, but then again he knew her from another life so he had to trust her. Plus she was from the future, he hopped that when they came they at least tried to tell the truth. Even though he hadn't done the same.
Nix: "She's not going to go evil because you're going to live!"
Mel's voiceover: "Because you did it the right way,"
Vincent: "Nix just promise me,"
Nix: Looks into his eyes and sees the fear, "I promise,"
Vincent: He closes his eyes, "And to think, I never got to tell her how much I cared,"
Ryan: "And her the same,"
Vincent: Opening his eyes and looking back at Ryan, "You never give up do you?"
Ryan: Shakes his head, "That's not who I am,"
Vincent: "But I'm a dying man, I won't even get my wish,"
Wyatt and Chris walked back into the room; both looked like they needed a day off.
Phoebe: Just now taking a look at her oldest nephews and seeing that both of them looked like hell, she hadn't even paid much attention to them in the attic. "What the hell happened to you?"
Wyatt: "We took care of what we had to take care of,"
Chris: Looks around the room, "Where's Mel?"
Vincent: Looks over to them, "She's going after Fox but for now she's up in the attic doing who knows what to that demon, she can see that I'm going to die,"
Wyatt: "You're not going to die! Unless Mel kills you! So don't even think about it or Mel will kill you,"
Chris: "Vince how do know, that we can't save you,"
Vincent: "You can't save a dead man Chris you know this,"
Chris: "Doesn't mean that I won't fight to the end,"
Vincent: "Doesn't mean you can save me,"
Wyatt: "Doesn't mean we won't give up, we owe you remember? You took care of our little sister for all those years,"
Vincent: "Wyatt, if you want to repay me, go up there and try and help Mel, try and get her to stay, not to go,"
Chris: Rolling his eyes, "That's not going to be easy,"
Vincent: "Tell her I'm dying and I'm scared, and I need my best friend, I need her to be here with me,"
Wyatt: It was the only thing he could say, "Okay,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Parker was in the middle of both Jacob and Sara she had gotten Sara to let Jacob go into her house but now, they both were yelling at one another and Parker was trying hard not to kill both of them.
Jacob: "Where the hell do you get these things from?"
Sara: "From…"
Parker: "ENOUGH!" Both turned to look at her shocked they had never met a cupid to yell at the people that she was trying to get together, but then again they had never dealt with a cupid first hand. "Look you two morons!"
Sara: "He's a moron!"
Jacob: "You're the moron!"
Sara: "Am not!"
Jacob: "Yes you are, you don't seem to understand that I love you!"
Sara: "You don't seem to understand what love is!"
Parker: Used her power to make them both fall, onto their asses on the sofa in Sara's living room, "Now both of you shut it! Jacob I want you to tell her about how your views on a lot of things have changed, and Sara, I want you to tell Jacob, what you think about his views on love and fuck everything," She waited and they didn't say anything she shot a glare at Jacob, "NOW!"
Jacob: "Oh uh…"
Sara: "He doesn't have any views!"
Jacob: "I do!" He pulls out a paper and looks down to it. "I used to think that love was a lie, I used to think, that it was a weapon that you used to get want you wanted, that it wasn't real," He looks into her eyes, "But you showed me that I was wrong, that it is real, that it isn't a lie, that it is a weapon but only to kill loneliness, you showed me, that I could love and that I can be loved,"
Sara: Looked speechless.
Parker: "Now Sara, what do you think?"
Sara: She wets her lips, "I'm not sure,"
Jacob: "I forgot one,"
Parker: Looking back to him, "Which one?"
Jacob: "That when I tell you that I love you, it means that I won't ever leave you, that I'm a new man," He looks over to Parker and smiles looks back to Sara, "That you made me a new man,"
Sara: "You won't?"
Jacob: "You have to trust me, I'm not like I was in high school, and you're not Parker, you're better," Normally Parker would have killed him for saying that, but the love she felt and the love in his eyes, was enough to shut her up, as the was gleam of love that filled Sara's face, "Really. Sara I love you,"
Sara: "Really?"
Jacob: "Yea,"
She ran and hugged him. Parker's ring shined a blueish red and soon a smile came on her face.
Parker: "My work is done, now you two try and act like you know what you're doing!"
Jacob: "Thank you Parker,"
Sara: "Thank you,"
Parker: Smiles as she walks out of Sara's house. "It was my job,"
Mel's voiceover: "Because you helped others,"
Parker: Sighs, "I have to get home,"
She walked into an ally and hearted to the manor not knowing what she'd fine but something told her she wouldn't like it one bit.
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Mel was shocking the demon making him feel real pain. Piper could honestly say that it scared her. She knew that when she'd go out hunting she could turn into an evil bitch. But the look that Mel had on her face made her remember that her daughter was the Twice Cursed but that left her mind once she remembered why Mel was acting like this, her best friend, the man she loved with most of her heart, the only man she'd trusted all her life. Well he was dying and there was nothing for her to do, nothing she could do.
Mel: "I'll ask you again! Where is the Darklighter that hired you?"
Demon: On all fours and out of breathe, "I told you, I have no clue,"
Mel: Shocks him again by throwing the crystal down to the floor making the demon scream, if it had been any other day, Mel would have stopped, if it had been any other person but her family or Vincent she'd have done less pain to the poor demon but this was Vincent sure she liked her family a lot, but she loved Vincent with all her heart. No demon or Darklighter that got in her way was going to live long, and this poor demon was in her way to getting to the son of a bitch that hurt her best friend/her first older brother, "Now I'll ask you again!"
Wyatt and Chris entered the room.
Chris: "Mel can I talk to you?"
Demon: "Will you kill me if I tell you?"
Mel: "I'm going to kill you either way, one way is less painful," Her light blue eyes filled with an evil layer that kinda shocked and scared her family, "The other not so much,"
Wyatt: "Mel this is important,"
Mel: "So is this!"
Demon: "How about you give me some time to think?"
Mel: "No, it's now or never,"
Demon: As if he was a brave man, "Then I guess you should know that I won't," Mel raised her arm and he felt a lot of pain, his insides felt as if they were being moved around, "O-o-okay,"
Mel: "Well?"
Demon: Looks over to Piper and Leo, then to Wyatt and Chris all four waited for him, he looked back to Mel, "Fox, you can find him at the Asylum do you know where it,"
Mel: "Yea, I know, it's a club in the underworld,"
Demon: "Yes, if he's not there well I can't help you,"
Just then Nix ran into the room she looked at Mel and in that look Mel knew what she feared, she turns back to the demon and shot a fire ball at him and took off down the stairs. She passed Parker as she just stood in the corner watching as Vincent coughed.
Mel: Stopped as she got to Vincent, "Hey, calm down,"
Vincent: He coughed like ten times his heart was giving out on him, "M-mel,"
Mel: Tearing up, as she knew what was next, "Please you have to hold on,"
Vincent: "You're… I… love…"
Mel: "Please,"
Vincent: Took in one last breathe, "You…" His head fell and Mel started to cry harder.
Mel: "No, you can't be dead, PLEASE!" She looked up to the heavens, "Please don't take this out on him," She held Vincent's dead body in her arms, "You can't be dead,"
Parker: Walked over to Mel crying as well, "Mel come here,"
Mel: "No," She didn't want to leave but Parker pulled her away. "I can't," She boomed out.
Wyatt: "Fuck,"
Leo: Looks over to Vincent's still opened his eyes, and walked over their and closed them, "I'm sorry,"
Mel's voiceover: "And All I want to know is,"
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
Mel was walking into the Underworld dressed in all black, covered with athames and potions that she had took from Parker's stash. She was out for blood, thick green Darklighter blood.
Demon: "Who are you looking for?"
Mel: Didn't talk she threw a potion at him and everyone stopped what they were doing and turned to look at her. "I just have one thing I want,"
Woman Demon: "What?"
Mel: "Fox the Darklighter," The demons moved out of her way, letting her see the opening of the bar called 'Asylum,' "Thank you,"
Woman Demon: "A word to the wise," Mel stopped walking and looked at her, "You better be a fine pitcher, because he's not going down without a fight,"
Mel: "He better be a good archer because I'm not going to stop unless he kills me,"
She walked into the club and saw demons all around as soon as they saw her they all walked away and out the door. Mel saw Fox's back at the bar, he was drinking. She kept on walking and him drinking.
Fox: Looks around as all the demons leave the room, "Just tell me," He drink from his shot glass, "Who are you?"
Mel: Sat down next to him and took a glass and poured herself a drink, "I'm a lot of things,"
Fox: "Yes, but my boss, he fears you, I can see it in his eyes,"
Mel: "He has good reason to fear me," Her eyes were red from the crying, her nose puffy and pink, she looked like hell, "I'm the worse thing imaginable to this life-time, I call myself the Twice Cursed, the ender of the world,"
Fox: Eyes literally came out of his sockets, "I'm sorry?"
Mel: "I'm the Twice Cursed, that's who I am, you should be honored,"
Fox: He looked fearful, "No, but I just… I never thought you'd be real," He turns to look at her and sees her drink from her glass, "I never knew you'd be good,"
Mel: Grabs him by the neck and slams his head into the counter, "Believe me, I am anything but good," She dragged him through the glass, "You killed the only thing that help me be good, and for that you have unleashed the world's worse fear: me,"
Fox: Coughs up blood he looks into her cold light blue eyes, "You… can't…"
Mel: "I don't play by the same rules," She grabbed her athame and ripped off his nose, "Now tell me how, did it feel to steal him away from me?"
Fox: Blood running down his face, "P-p-please… t-this isn't f-fair!"
Mel: "Fair? Was it fair for you to kill Vincent? Was it fair for the Elders not to let anyone heal him?" She cut the Darklighter again and he yelled in pain, "Was it fair that I never told him I loved him? That you stole that from me? WAS THAT FAIR?"
Fox: Spits out blood, "No,"
Mel: "No? But you did it anyways," She grabbed a potion from her pocket and opened it and poured it into his mouth, "Does it burn?" Her voice gets lower, "Are you afraid?"
Fox: Choking on the potion as it burns his insides, "H-h-help."
Mel: Watches as he chokes, "No," She lets him drop to the floor and she walks away. The demons stand around shocked, "Told you I'd live," She boomed out.
-------------------------------Next Scene------------------------
She boomed into the room and looked at Vincent's dead body being taken away. She looked down to the floor as her mother walked to her.
Piper: Trying to look as if she wasn't a broken woman, trying to look as if she wasn't angry with her daughter, she had just left as if nothing, as if Vincent hadn't just died, "Mel can we talk?" She understood she did, but it was still something she wasn't too happy about. "Please?"
Mel: She had left after he had died, and she had killed the son of a bitch but still she didn't feel whole and she felt much less safer, "Okay,"
They walked out of the room and into Mel's old childhood room. Piper looked around she hadn't been in this room since that night. She couldn't, it broke her heart every time, she would see her daughter's smiling face. She stopped pacing and looked back at daughter now. God how much she was like her, when Prue had first died, she remembered that time a little bit, but she remembered when Prue did die, she had went on a demon killing spree, she had hoped that her daughter was a little bit more sane.
Mel: Trying to say the one thing Piper's hearted wanted and needed to hear, "M…"
Piper: Not knowing what she just cut off, "Mel,"
Mel: As if it wasn't going to happen ever again, "Yes?"
Piper: Sat down next to her, "I know what you're thinking, why did she bring me in here? Why am I alive and Vincent dead?"
Mel: "Because I was meant to suffer and him dying, is how I'm going to suffer,"
Piper: Gave her a grim look, "No," Mel looked into her mother's eyes and she couldn't help but feel like crap, she had called everyone by their family name, but she had yet to call Piper mom. "You're alive because it was your destiny to live, it is your destiny to prove how good you really are,"
Mel: She shook her head, "I'm not good," remembering what she had just done, "Really I'm not,"
Piper: "I know it's hard for you to understand that it's going to get better but you have to trust me, you can't imagine all the times I lost your dad to death, so believe me I know that it's hard but it gets easier,"
Mel: Tears start to fill her eyes, "I want him back, is that so bad?"
Piper: "No, but it was his time to go honey, I'm sorry you can't get him back,"
Mel: "But I can't live without him," She starts to cry now, "I didn't get to tell him I loved him,"
Piper: Her heart breaking as Mel's does the same, "Oh Mels,"
Mel: "He died thinking I hated him, that I didn't respect his views on family, he died," She now shakes in her crying, she falls into Piper's awaiting arms. "Why'd he have to die? Why couldn't it have been me? I'm evil he was good,"
Piper: Rubbing circle's around her back again trying to calm the girl down, "Shhhh, you're not evil, don't think that, shhh its okay it's going to be okay,"
Mel's voiceover: "Why'd they lie?"
-----
Sorry for those of you that liked Vincent, I liked him too, trust me when I say he'll be around. If he'll be back to life well I just can't say right now… okay I can but what fun would it be if I did? And on a lighter note I like the Hank being turned down by the Marines that was just LOL!
