Family and Guys

"What's this?" Phoebe asked, walking into the foyer. Leo, Henry, Paige and Piper were standing there together with smiles on their faces. "Well, you and Coop Never really got a chance to have your honeymoon, so we thought that we'd surprise you with one." Piper said, handing her an envelope.

"Don't worry, it's not what you gave us for our honeymoon." Paige said, laughing.

Phoebe opened it and there were two keys to a honeymoon suite. "Where's this at?" She asked them.

"The Bahamas." Leo replied.

"Coop, you need to get here right now." Phoebe called. A bright red light appeared next to Phoebe. The red light materialized into Coop.

"You called?" He asked her.

"You're never going to guess what these four did to us." She stated.

Coop turned to look at the group. He gave them a puzzled look.

"We paid for you and Phoebe to go on your honeymoon." Henry explained.

"Tell him where to, Phoebe." Leo grinned.

Phoebe turned to Coop. "We're going to the Bahamas." She playfully slapped him against his chest.

"What?" Coop asked bewildered.

"You didn't get a chance to go on your honeymoon after you got married, because we had to go to the east coast and save those children. We each had a honeymoon and we didn't think it was right that you didn't." Piper explained.

"The only thing you have to pay for is the transportation, but we figured that you had that covered." Henry winked at them.

"Yeah, we got it covered." Coop laughed.

There was a short pause between the family. Paige was the first to speak. "Ugh. I hate silence. Go, get, time for your honeymoon."

"How can we thank you?" Phoebe asked.

"You can thank us by going and having a good time."

Coop grabbed Phoebe and together they flashed over to their apartment.

- - - - - - - -

"Are you close to being ready?" Coop called from the living room.

"Yeah, just a minute." Phoebe called. She pulled out something she bought last week. It was a red, sexy lingerer. It had hearts all over it. She smiled. Coop is going to love this. He is a Cupid after all. She thought.

She put it in her suitcase and headed out to the living room.

Meanwhile, at the manor, the other two Charmed Ones were enjoying a nice quiet day with their husbands.

"I'm glad that we did that for Phoebe." Paige said, snuggling deeper into Henry's embrace.

"She deserved it." Piper agreed. "She was the heart of this family. She brought money in when we needed, she sacrificed everything for us."

"I think that for now on, she's going to be happy." Leo agreed.

Just then, there was a crash in the sun room. "What the hell?" Henry asked, getting up.

They all headed into the sun room to find a teenage girl. She had long, brown hair that seemed to be made of silk. She had matching brown eyes and an innocent look about her.

"Help me." She pleaded. She then collapsed, revealing a shard of glass stuck in her back.

Paige rushed over, removed the glass and laid her hands on the girls back, attempting to heal her.

A moment later, the girl sat up. "Thanks."

Piper threw her hands up and froze the entire room, except for Henry and Leo. A fly was stopped, mid-air. The water in the new water fountain that Paige and Henry bought them, stopped flowing. The only thing that didn't freeze, was the teenage girl. She slowly got to her feet.

Piper turned to Leo, worried. "Why didn't she freeze?"

- - - - - - - - -

Over in Coop and Phoebe's apartment, they were in the living room, double checking their luggage. Not that it really was a problem. If he wanted to, Coop could be back in a flash.

Just then, the phone rang. "Don't answer that." Coop said. He was eager to get on the honeymoon.

The answering machine came on and Piper's voice came on. "Phoebe, you need to get over here now. This is an emergency."

Phoebe sighed and walked over to Coop. "I'm sorry." She apologized, resting her head on his chest.

"No, it's okay. I knew what I was getting myself into. I know that the Charmed One's come first."

"I wish for once we could put ourselves first." Phoebe said.

"I know you're frustrated, but you know as well as I do that innocents rank higher then I do. I'll always be here, they may not be." Coop said. He wrapped his hands around her and flashed out.

Back at the Manor, Coop and Phoebe were heading upstairs to the attic. When they got to the landing, Phoebe asked, "Now what was so important that you had to call me before..." She saw the teenage girl, sitting a chair.

"You might need to sit down for this one." Paige said, not joking.

Phoebe eyed the girl. "Have we met before? You seem very familiar."

"That's because she's your long-lost cousin." Henry explained.

"Wait, what?" Phoebe was speechless.

"Yep, on mom's side." Piper added.

The girl stood up and held out her hand. "Please to meet you. I'm Parker."

"But how is that possible." Coop asked. "Wasn't your mom an only child?"

"Yes." Phoebe said

"No." The teenage girl said at the same time.

"Why are you here?" Paige asked.

Parker took a deep breath and continued. "Well, let me start from the beginning. My mom is your aunt. She was your mom's older sister. Her name was Phiona Halliwell. She was a witch. She had the power to control plants. She met my father at a Wiccan gathering. He had the power to set up force fields..." At the mention of forcefields, Leo looked up. "...and he could manipulate the weather."

She paused, took a sip of water that Paige had kindly gave her before they headed to the attic. The then continued. "After my father was murdered by a demon, my mom didn't want anything to do with magic. She created a power stripping potion and ridded herself of her powers. I had no idea of this until I got involved with a Wicca group in our neighborhood. When she found my Book of Shadows and my tools, she flipped out. I asked her what was wrong, and finally she told me about everything. The one positive thing she did for me was to find out what my power was. Even is she was willing to give up her heritage, i wasn't."

"What is your power?" Henry asked.

"I actually have several powers. I inherited mom's gift to control plants, and from dad I got the power to set up forcefields, and manipulate the weather."

"Where is your mom?" Coop asked.

"She was murdered. The guy that she was seeing was a demon. He thought mom was still a witch, and he killed her to get her power, but after he realized that she didn't have them anymore, he came after me. Luckily i still had my powers and my forcefield came up. Bounced him against a wall and knocked him out.

"Why didn't mom or grams mention you guys at all?" Piper asked.

"There's only one way to find out." Leo said. He turned the podium that the Book of Shadows was on. He flipped to the page to call a spirit.

"Good Idea." Phoebe said, getting the candles out. She placed them where they needed to be, lit them, and joined her sisters.

Here these words,

Hear our cry,

Spirit from the other side,

Come to me,

We summon thee,

Cross now the great divide.

In sparkling white orbs, Grams' ghost appeared. "You called?" She asked, smiling. She thought this was a social call.

"Just one question for you. Recognize her?" Piper asked. Henry and Coop stepped aside to reveal Parker.

"Parker, what are you doing here?" Grams asked.

"So you do recognize her." Piper stated.

"Grams, why didn't you tell us about them?" Paige asked, concerned.

"What did mom think about this?" Phoebe asked.

"Your mother didn't know. Phiona started to reject her heritage when she was about Parker's age. She still had and used her powers when she absolutely needed to, but she refused to be a part of the family. Before she took off, she went to one wiccan gathering with me. That's how she met your father." Grams said to Parker. "Well, he knew of her reluctance to the craft, but he loved her and he didn't care. They were married and they left. After Xander died, she couldn't stand it anymore. She stripped her powers. Parker wasn't even two years old." Grams explained the whole thing.

Phoebe sat down next to Parker and put her arm around her. Phoebe gasped.

The demon burst into a home. Phiona tried to run, but she was no match for the demon. He stabbed her with an athame. Phiona screamed and then went limp.

That premonition went from that one to another.

Parker was chained to a wall, the demon stabbed her in the stomach with the sane athame he used on her mother. He twisted the knife round and round, torturing her.

When she came out of the premonition, she was surrounded by the other witches in the room.

"What happened, dear?" Grams asked.

"I saw what happened to Parker's mom. Then I saw the demon, stab Parker." Phoebe explained.

"We won't let that happen." Leo said, getting up. He headed over to the Book of Shadows. "Can you I.D. the demon, Phoebe?"

Phoebe started to flip the pages. Finally she came across the demon she saw in her visions. "This is him. It says that Rasputin is an upper level, collector demon. He kills witches for their powers, but not for himself. He sells them to lower level demons to get their support. Oh, there's a side note here. He does keep the powers that he finds very useful and ones that are very rare."

"Is there a way to vanquish him?" Paige asked, also walking over.

"We need a potion and a spell." Phoebe explained.

"Well, Coop, you and Phoebe get started on a potion. Leo, Henry, Piper and Paige will stay with Parker and I to come up with a spell." Grams instructed. Phoebe quickly copied down the ingredients needed for the potion, then she and Coop headed downstairs.

"Don't worry. We'll catch this demon and vanquish his sorry ass." Piper said.

Parker hugged her legs to herself. She hoped so, for all their sakes.

- - - - - - - - - -

Down in the kitchen, Phoebe got a pan out and set it on the stove. She threw in all the ingredients that she needed. A little ginger, lavender, basil, etc.

"I'm really sorry about the honeymoon." She said to Coop.

"Don't be. We can go after this whole ordeal is over." He smiled at her.

She walked up to him. "I knew there was a reason I fell in love with you." She pressed her lips against his, enjoying the moment. The moment was soon shattered when they heard a crash from upstairs.

- - - - - - - - - -

Piper got threw against the wall pretty hard. Grams tried to use her telekinesis against him, but he was to fast. Probably a power he stole from a witch. He slammed her against the wall and knocked her out. Phoebe and Coop ran into the room.

The demon tried to throw an energy ball at Phoebe, but the growing fetus inside of her flashed her out at the last second. The baby would be part cupid after all.

When she reappeared, she levitated and kicked the demon in the face, which sent him flying in the coffee table that they brought up the day before.

He knew that he was losing, but he wasn't going to leave here empty handed. He grabbed Henry and shimmered out.

Paige quickly ran over to Piper and Grams and healed them. "What happened? Is Parker okay?" Piper asked, worried.

"Parker's okay, but the demon took Henry." Paige said.

"Henry will be fine. He is a powerful witch, thanks to you." Grams said.

"Yeah, and he does have the power to borrow other's powers. If the demon tries to hurt him, he can use his own powers against him." Leo assured her.

"Our first priority now is to get the potion finished and get that damn spell written." Piper said, fixing her hair.

"Oh, no. The potion." Phoebe cried turning and running back downstairs.

- - - - - - - - - - -

Meanwhile in a dark cave, Henry was chained to the wall. "They'll never fall for the trap. They know that you want Parker and you'll never get her."

"I never knew that this witch was related to the Charmed Ones. Imagine what I could get for their powers. Or maybe I'll keep them for myself." Rasputin ranted.

Henry waited until the demon turned around. He closed his eyes, and focused on Paige. A moment later, he orbed from the cave back to the Manor.

- - - - - - - - - -

Piper sponged the potion into six separate vials.

"Are you sure this will work?" Paige asked.

"Positive." Phoebe said.

Just then, Henry orbed in and scared them all. Piper blew up a cabinet. Paige orbed out, and Phoebe flashed out, due to the baby's powers.

"Relax, it's only me." He said. After everyone called down, he told them of Rasputin's plans.

"Wait a minute. I have a great idea." Leo said.

Everyone turned to look at him. "Paige can make Parker invisible. He can't take what he can't find."

"That could work." The girls agreed.

- - - - - - - -

Rasputin was furious. He didn't know that the witch he captured could orb. He burst into the manor and was greeted by six witches and one Cupid. There was Parker, Grams, Phoebe, Coop, Leo, Piper, Paige. They were standing, poised and ready.

Henry was invisible, stalking behind the demon. The demon smiled and hurled a energy ball behind him. Luckily enough, Henry orbed out just in time. Leo put up his forcefield, to stop any attacks.

The demon broke through the forcefield and knocked Paige to the ground. "Just let him have her." She screamed.

Coop pushed Parker to the demon. "I thought you guys were into saving the innocents." The demon said.

Parker appeared out of nowhere. "They are. Now guys!"

Piper threw her hands up and blew up the fake Parker. This Parker was made up of the vanquishing potion. The Potion covered the demon and he melted.

"Another demon down." Paige jumped into Henry's arms and kissed him.

"Well, my work here is done, I have to go back. It was nice to see you girls meet your cousin." Grams said. She waved them good-bye and disappeared in a swirl of white orbs.

'What are we going to do about...?" Leo asked, referring to Parker.

'We have a spare bedroom." Coop offered.

"Yeah. We would love to take her in." Phoebe agreed.

"You mean that I'm going to get my witch training?" Parker asked, her eyes lighting up.

"Yes. It would seem so." Piper said, smiling.

"We can start on your training." Phoebe said.

"No. We will start on her training. You and Coop are going to go on your honeymoon. Parker can move in when you get back." Paige said, shooing Phoebe and Coop off. Coop pulled Phoebe close and together they flashed away.
