Author's note: I really should apologize to my readers and reviewers for not updating this story enough. I don't know why but it always seems to get neglected on my part. I will try to do better in that respect.
PrettyDiva: Here you go, finally a chapter with Drake. Read on to see how he tries to get rid of Tommy.
HarryPassionFan: Well, Tommy's powers did protect him from Wyatt's powers but time will only tell if it'll be strong enough to stand up to Drake.
Abby: Thanks for being a new reviewer! I will pass the message on to Slytherin-Angel44 right now.
Riverkirby: I don't think Drake will be phased at all by Tommy's ranger powers, he's cocky like that, and he doesn't think anything can touch him. As for meetings between the Charmed Family and Tommy's friends, I'm sure I'll get to it eventually.
Slytherin-Angel44: I'm glad you enjoy Tommy and Nikki together because I will always pair them up when I'm not writing a Tommy/Kat story. Oh and Abby would like for you to know that she loves your Tommy Oliver and Bill Weasely stories. She'd tell you herself but she can't make an account on so I am relaying the message for her.
ThePink1atReefside: Glad you liked the last two chapters. I sometimes have to go back and read them because I can't remember everything that I've written. I guess I didn't specify it any of the chapters but Robb is a witch so he knows all about the Charmed Ones and their legacy.
"You really think this plan of yours will work?" Zephyr asked Drake as they met in his lair in the underworld.
"Yes uncle, I know it will," Drake promised
Drake's Uncle Zephyr was no stranger to battling the Charmed Ones. In fact, Zephyr was a high level demon whose father Zankou had once almost succeeded in vanquishing the Charmed Ones before the sisters settled down and had children. However, in the end it was Zankou who had been vanquished and Zephyr had vowed that when he was old enough he would seek revenge against them. Since their children had taken up the fight, he had enlisted his nephew Drake to help him and it was Zephyr who had come up with the plan that Drake should pretend to be a witch with limited powers and befriend one of the Charmed One's offspring. Drake had chosen Nikki and had succeeded in making her fall in love with him. If Zephyr could succeed in destroying the Charmed family, he would be powerful enough to convince all the other demons that he was the one that should be ruler of the underworld.
"You better hope that it does work, we wouldn't even be having this problem if you hadn't slipped up," Zephyr replied.
Drake had arranged for a meeting between himself and another demon in Nikki's room at her parents house when he had believed she would be working but Nikki had surprised him and that was when she learned the truth that she had fallen in love with a demon. It was then that Drake decided that he had no choice but to kill her, he would blame her death on the other demon when her family showed up and that way he would still be in their circle but Nikki had managed to get away from him and so the plan was ruined.
"Trust me Uncle, if you do this for me, I won't make the same mistake again, things will go back to how they were before with Nikki not suspecting a thing," Drake told him.
"Alright, I'll do it, let's see if you can prove yourself worthy of ruling the underworld by my side," Zephyr said.
"We'll be together very soon Nikki," Drake whispered.
Meanwhile, at the Mitchell house Nikki helped Paige clear the table after their family dinner. Sami and Robb had come over and Robb and Tommy were talking in the living room.
"Now that we're alone, do you mind if I ask you something," Tommy said to Robb as they sat down on the couch.
"Sure go ahead," Robb replied.
"Why does my wife seem to dislike you so much?" Tommy asked.
"It's simple really, I come from a long line of witches just like they do, only my family wasn't nearly as powerful as the Charmed Ones, we don't really have any active powers, but we make up for it with our potions, Nikki seems to think the only reason I'm dating Sami is because of who her family is, she thinks I'm only using Sami," Robb responded.
"And are you?" Tommy asked. Knowing that Nikki wouldn't dislike Robb so much if she didn't truly think it was true.
"I'll admit at first I did enjoy the fact that a lowly witch like me got a Charmed offspring for a girlfriend and I did make a habit of bragging about it at magic school but it's not like that anymore, I really love Sami, despite the fact that our relationship has so many problems, we fight, we break up and then we get back together, it's what we do," Robb told him.
"If you want, I could talk to Nikki for you, maybe I could get her to lighten up," Tommy said.
"You can try but I don't think it will work," Robb replied.
"What won't work?" Nikki asked as she and Sami entered the room.
"Tommy was going to suggest that the four of us get together sometime that's all," Robb answered.
"Sounds like a great idea to me," Sami said smiling.
"What do you say?" Tommy asked as he put his arm around Nikki.
"Well I'll think about it," she said.
"I can't believe this, I love the effect marriage is having on you," Sami told her.
"Don't celebrate just yet, she said she'll think about it," Robb replied.
"Well, as much fun as this night had been I think I'm gonna head up to bed, Lew wants me in the office early tomorrow," Nikki said.
"Yeah, we should get going," Robb said as he took Sami's hand.
"Goodnight you guys," Sami said as she orbed them to her apartment.
"You know Robb really isn't that bad of a guy," Tommy told Nikki once they were both lying in bed.
"Do we have to talk about him, that's not really the last thing I want to think about before going to sleep," Nikki said.
"And what would you rather think about?" he asked.
"My handsome husband for starters," Nikki said as she leaned over and kissed him.
Outside their window, Drake crouched on the roof and watched as Nikki kissed Tommy.
"Enjoy it that kiss while it lasts mortal because it's the last one you're ever going to get from my girlfriend," Drake whispered.
The next morning, Nikki groaned as she heard the alarm clock going off. She reached over to turn it off climbing over the man who was in bed beside her and waking him up in the process.
"Good morning my love," he said as he pulled her down to him and gave her a kiss.
"What are you doing in my bed?" she asked once he stopped kissing her.
"I'm trying to kiss my beautiful girlfriend," he replied.
"Drake, you know if my Dad catches you in here, he'll kill us both," Nikki told him.
"See this is exactly why you need your own place," he said.
"Well I would have my own place if Sami didn't insist on moving in with Robb," she complained.
"So move in with me, after all we are engaged now or had you forgotten," he replied.
"No, I hadn't forgotten, how could I," she said as she looked down at the diamond ring on her finger.
"Then it's settled, you're moving in with me," Drake said as he got up from the bed.
"Can we please talk about this later, I'm going to be late," she told him.
"Fine, I'll let you get ready but I'm not dropping this," he said as he went over to the window.
"If you wait, I can orb you," she said.
"No, we wouldn't want to chance your dad catching me while I wait," he said as he blew her a kiss before climbing out.
Nikki watched as her fiancée climbed out of her window and then went to take a shower. She came out of her room to find her sister Sami sitting on her bed.
"What the hell happened to your hair?" Nikki asked seeing that Sami's hair was blonde.
"Oh this, just a backfire from a spell, but Robb seemed to like it so I think I'll keep it," Sami told her.
"Well, how about you keep the hair but get rid of Robb," Nikki replied.
"Ok fine, I'll get rid of Robb if you'll get rid of Drake," Sami retorted.
"And give back this ring, I don't think so, besides I love Drake," Nikki said.
"Ooh, here's an even better idea, we get rid of them both and we pawn your ring and use it to go on a cruise or something, with as many demons as we've been fighting lately we could use a good vacation," Sami said.
Nikki wasn't really listening anymore though because something about Sami mentioning a cruise had brought a funny feeling into the pit of her stomach. She couldn't help thinking that something wasn't quite right or at least something was missing.
