First a thank you to lizardmomma, my reviewer. While I would love to get reviews from more people I am so very thankful to her, for not only reviewing, but reviewing every chapter. Thank you.

Now, I'm going to try and respond to any comments that she made that might need it. First off, don't worry about missing that many chapters. In reality you missed one. I waited two months or so and when nothing happened, no reviews I decided to just go ahead and just start posting. I posted all the others in a matter of two days. I still have a few left that are ready. I just had to get them from Es, since my computer had crashed and this story with it back in April or so. I suppose the angel could have helped them, but since he didn't in the story I decided to stick with that. Besides, it makes for a more interesting challenge when they have to learn a way around these things. I quite agree on Darryl. I hope he doesn't get any more murders to deal with any time soon. He deserves a break. I agree that the glamour thing worked well in season eight and these guys have an advantage over them. They don't have to worry about personal gain issues. It's taken a while, but we (myself, JustEs, and Primrose_Empath) have figured out most of their identity issues, names and everything. Be prepared for surprises there, especially Andy. I love Es' idea on that one and can't wait to see Prue's reaction. Es took my idea and came up with the perfect option. Yep, Paige's parents are going to be around a lot. Each girl has her support. For Prue it's Andy. For Piper is Leo. For Phoebe is Cole. For Paige it's her parents. I like the differences between Andy and Leo too. They are two very different men and both of them well suited to be a whitelighter (except perhaps in "Witchstock", because something was up with hippie Leo there). Ah, the Superman spell. It's been a while, but I know I wrote it. I think Es tweaked it to make it sound better. Or maybe she just tweaked the dialogue around it. I don't recall. You're going to have to wait on what Mary wants to ask Piper. It's coming up, but they've got several things to do first. Yes, we had an amusing conversation about the cooking. *Looks Innocent*. Don't actually recall the conversation, but it was amusing. Not learning about Paige's family was something that bugged me. I mean I know they wanted her to be part of the family, but she had a past, too, a family who loved her, some of whom where still alive (*cough* Uncle Dave and Aunt Julie *cough*). Of course you already know that it was Victor by the time you read this, but I figured I'd respond to that. They didn't contact him sooner, because they got caught up in things, and it was late, and it was kind of the excitement of everything. They really should have, but they didn't. I have another story where Victor finds out that he has a formerly dead daughter alive, but the reason he doesn't find out until the next morning is much more simple. I forgot.


Chapter 6.2 – The Good Kind of Shocked

"How are you holding up, Prue?" Victor asked hesitantly.

"Things have only gone uphill since we defeated Kernus," Prue replied without thought and then cursed herself when she recalled that this would have been impossible without Paige. She just hoped that Victor didn't realize that defeating Kernus required The Power of Three.

No such luck. Victor looked at her confused. "But I thought you needed the . . ." He trailed off, looking at his oldest daughter suspiciously. Of course he would know as much as possible about the being responsible for the death of one of his daughters, even a magical being. "What aren't you telling me, Prudence . . . Prue?" Her nickname was clearly not easy for him to get use to.

"Dad."

Victor's head whiplashed around to see his middle daughter standing in the doorway between the foyer and the kitchen. "Piper." He turned white before her eyes and began to wobble.

Piper waved her hands, freezing Victor in place. She walked over and took the container of food out of his hands. She put the food on a nearby end table and turned to Prue, wryly. "Clearly coming in here was a bad idea."

"You think?" Prue replied dryly.

"Clearly not the way to let him know I'm alive."

Prue nodded. "Is there a good way?"

"Nope," Piper admitted, looking at Victor. "None. Want to make sure he doesn't fall when I unfreeze him?"

Prue nodded. Now was not the time to think about her own feelings for Victor. This was about Piper. She walked up behind Victor and put a steadying hand on him as Piper waved her hands to unfreeze him.

Victor did a double take as suddenly not only was Piper there, but she was several feet closer to him than the saecond before and Prudence, Prue, had moved, too. Having abeen around Patty for so long, he should've been able to figure out that he had been frozen, but that thought never crossed his mind; he was much too shocked. "Wha . . . what?" His voice wobbled worse than his body did. He looked straight at Piper, skin pale as a sheet and eyes wide as saucers. "Ppppiper?"


So there you have that. Next section to be posted once a review or two *puppy dog eyes at anyone lurking* shows up.

And yes, I did mean "Shocked" in the title rather than "Shock". Not sure if anyone else besides me will look at that funny, but it conveyed what I meant better.
