Chp. 6
Arriving back at the manor, Piper was the first to speak about the spectacular scene witnessed beck at the beach.
"So," Piper began slowly, "What the hell happened back there?"
"I've never seen anything like that before in my life" Cole said "I have no idea how it was generated either."
"I think it was the baby" Prue said quietly.
"I think so too," Cole said supportingly.
"Maybe Leo knows something about it. LEO!" Piper called loudly. All of a sudden a swirl of bright lights appeared and a figure appeared. "Finally! Took you long enough."
"Piper I was in a meeting!" Leo said defensively.
"Oh yeah while you were in your "meeting" Prue was being attacked by a seer down here!" Piper said angrily.
"Piper that was what the "meeting" was about. Prue and the baby," Leo snapped.
"Well what did they say then. I think we have the right to know," Paige said trying to break up the argument between Piper and Leo. Turning towards Prue and Cole, Leo started to explain.
"Well they basically said exactly what Penny told you Prue. About the ultimate power and all the evil that will be after you and the baby. You see Penny and Patty knew about this long before the elders did" Leo said matter of factly.
"Ooo what a shock the elders know nothing yet again" Piper said sarcastically. Leo looked at Piper with a frown. He hated it when Piper made fun of the elders but she had her reasons after them barely being able to get married because of the elders.
"Well the elders have decided to have people on guard so Prue and the baby will always have protection. This isn't something that we can take lightly. This baby will be more powerful than anyone could ever have imagined which means evil lurking every minute of the day" Leo stated.
"Well it's late and I think everyone needs a good night's sleep and clear their heads at least for a little while. We'll just have to worry about it when it happens right. Besides there are guys on guard right now. Right Leo?" Paige said staring at Leo waiting for an answer.
"Yes. The elders have put people on guard to protect Prue and the baby. Of course they are in an invisible mode so it will feel as if they are not here and we can go on with our lives." Leo replied trying to reassure Prue who look extremely worried. "I think we should all get some sleep. Today's been quite an emotional day."
"Great. Well I'm off to bed then" Prue said as she walked out of the kitchen and headed towards the stairs.
"Well I think I might just join you too," Cole said following Prue with a mischievous look on his face and he and Prue headed up to their bedroom closing the door for the night.
