Part 15:
FINALLY BREAKING DOWN
Chris looked down at the picture that he had finally found after a week long sleep less week at looking at a few hundred dozens negatives. He had finally found the negative of Piper, Phoebe and Paige the day Paige moved into the manor. The picture that the second demon had destroyed.
Chris had turned Piper's office at P3 into a dark room and he had carefully developed the negative into a 16 x 12 picture. He had found the exact picture frame that the original picture was in.
Once he had carefully placed the picture in the frame he orbed out of Piper's office at P3 into the Halliwell manor's family room.
"I have something for you two." Chris said slowly turning the picture frame around.
Phoebe and Piper eyes rounded wide as they saw the picture that they thought was destroyed for all time.
"How?" Phoebe whispered.
"I found all your negatives and I spent all week searching until I finally found it. I finally found it during the wee hours this morning. I turned Piper's office into a dark room and developed it. I found a copy of the frame that the original picture was in." Chris said.
"I know it's not the original, but I figured you would want another picture form the negative." Chris never took his eyes off of the two sisters. "I was thinking if you two blessed it, than no demon or warlock can ever destroy it again. It will be safe for all time."
Piper stared at the picture of herself, Phoebe and Paige, the picture that she never thought she would lay her eyes on again. She stared into Paige's carefree and truly happy wide smiling face and the wall around her heart finally broke. The dam finally broke and the tears that she had forced behind the tall wall finally found release.
With heart wretched sobs Piper wrapped her arms across her stomach and bent over so her head touched her knees.
