Disclaimer: Does not own WITCH
AN: I just wrote a update version of the original fic that started this Series Change of Heart, dealing with some of its spelling and grammar mistakes. I was thinking of doing the same for the other 2 LIAHC fics but at this time don't feel like the work. However I did notice that I had most of this chapter of LIAHC 3 written and never posted so finished it off in order to post it. Once this fic done, if I manage to stay on top of it after so long, then I'll go and super rewrite mode, before I do a 4th LIAHC if I even do one.
Love is a Hearts Child: 3 – Two Halves of Dark Hearts
Chapter 1 -
Will pressed the button to the intercom for the doors of the apartment complex. "Hello?" Will said to the receiver. "Morning, I have a package for a Mr. Collins here." A man's voice replied. "Oh okay I'll buzz you in." Will said pressing another button that unlocked the downstairs door. Will waited by door until she heard a knock and she opened it. A man stood there an electronic pad of some kind in his hand and a large package on the floor by him. "I just need you to sign here." The man said holding the pad out to her. Will quickly signed. "Do you want me to move this it's pretty heavy?" The man asked. "No I should be okay." Will replied picking up the large box, with a level of ease that surprised the delivery man. "Well have a nice day miss." The man said taking his leave and heading toward the elevator.
Will carried the box to the dining room and put it on the table. The man hadn't lied it was indeed heavy but Will was stronger then she looked, one of the advantaged of having to be a guardian was that you were used to doing hard work. "It would have been nice if Dean mentioned that he had ordered something." Will mused to herself with a sigh, before heading back to her bedroom and little Brigitte.

Irma was still shaken by her vision in the puddle. So much so she wasn't really sure what she wanted to do. She knew that seeing something didn't mean it would happen, because the fact she had seen it allowed her to try and take action to prevent it, but she didn't know what had caused what she had seen and therefore she didn't know how to prevent it. 'I guess I should still tell others, it could be important.' Irma thought to herself. As she was already on the way to Will's, and Will was involved in the vision, Irma decided to tell her first. (Will are you there?) Irma reached out mentally to Will. (Morning Irma, not been up long I'm just feeding Brigitte.) Will thought entered Irma head in response.
(Oh is it okay if I come over I'm already most of the way to yours and I really need to speak to you.) Irma sent trying to make the thought sound as calm as she could. (Yeah its okay, Brigitte will love to see Aunty Irma.) Will replied happily. (I bet she does. She knows I'm the best.) Irma thought jokingly. (I'll see you in bit.) Will responded. (Yeah sure.) Irma sent before cutting the mental conversation before carrying on towards Will's not looking forward to explaining her vision.
"You finally calmed down?" Steven asked Cedric the older man who sat in a heavy leather chair, his hand placed so the finger met and a couple of them holding the bridge of his nose. "Yes I am calm. I am still angry but I not going to try anything untoward." Cedric replied standing up. "So are we finally going to start I don't really want to waste any more time." Steven said sounding annoyed. "Yes, you've learnt enough over the last few months that you won't have to worry about anything seriously bad happening due to your powers but until you master them certain uncontrolled events might take place." Cedric said Steven knowing that he was referring to Steven previous accidental use of compulsion spells.
"I believe the next best course of action is trying what possibly was the most complicated power of which 'The Collector' displayed. Separating your consciousness from your body, if you manage to master that, then you should be able to master anything else that he was capable of." Cedric told Steven sounding serious. "Really why did you need your powers to teach me that?" Steven asked confused. "It is not that I needed them to teach you but to be able to help if anything went wrong in your attempts." Cedric explained. "Okay then how do I try?" Steven asked. "The basic idea is simple, you just have to try and move your mind like normal but with no other body to place it into. The tricky part is holding your mind together once it is no longer inside you." Cedric said sitting back down. "It is your choice if you want to try, I will be here to try and help if something goes wrong." Cedric added the choice.
Irma arrived at the apartment building where Will lived and as she reached the door she looked around to make sure no one was watching her before teleporting to right outside the apartment door instead of using the intercom. Irma knocked and waited. Will opened the door, Brigitte held carefully cradled in one arm. "Hey Irma." Will greeted as Irma stepped in and closed the door behind her. "Morning Will, hello Brigitte." Irma said tickling under the child's chin receiving playful laughs of affection at the action. "Are you being a good girl for mummy?" She asked the little girl. "Can I carry her?" Irma then turned to ask Will. "Of course you can." Will replied passing the girl over to Irma. "By the way aren't you up really early compared to normal for you?" Will asked. "Err Steven woke me, seem Cedric was kind of pissed off about finding out he's had his powers for a week. Guess that cat is out of the bag now though." Irma replied as the two women headed to the dining room.
"Do you want a drink or anything?" Will asked politely. "Na I'm okay." Irma replied sitting at the table, holding Will's baby on her lap rocking her slightly. "I still can't believe you're a mother." Irma said smiling. "I know. So what did you want to talk about?" Will asked Irma. Irma didn't reply straight away distracted by Brigitte trying to reach out for Dean's package on the table. "Will do you think that we'll always be friends?" Irma asked seemingly out of the blue. "Of course I do. Why? What's happened Irma?" Will asked sounding confused. "I saw something, a vision. It was us." Irma said voice slightly shaky. "What is it?" Will asked concerned. "Us trying to kill each other." Irma told her straight out, holding Brigitte slightly further from the table to try and stop trying to reach for the box.
"Are you sure?" Will questioned seriously shocked by what Irma had said. "Would I say it..." Irma was cut of talking by the sudden fact the Brigitte had violently pulled herself out of Irma arms and seemed to fly to the box on the table. "What the?" Will said surprise. "She has powers?" Irma also spoke in surprise. "Seems that way. Come on Brigitte that granddad's box." Will Said trying to pick up the tiny girl. Flying around was not safe for such a young child.
"IT IS NOT SMART TO IGNORE THE CHILD'S ACTIONS HOLDER OF THE HEART. NO IT SEEMS YOUR CHILD HAS GREATER INSIGHT THEN EITHER OF YOU." Irma leapt away from the table as a mesh of voices seemed to explode from the box. Will grabbed Brigitte and back away as fast as she could. "DON'T BOTHER TRYING TO FIGHT, YOU SHALL FIND YOURSELVES BOTH QUITE POWERLESS. NOW SLEEP!" The voices rung true as both of the women tried to call up their powers… nothing. As the voice commanded them to sleep both of them flicked off like a light. Falling to the ground unconscious, Will instinctively cradled Brigitte in order to protect her.

Caleb arrived at the apartment complex and pressed the buzzer. He had yet to get a set of keys for the doors but hopefully he would soon. Pressing the button again he waited and waited and realized that no reply was coming. Pulling out his mobile phone, a hand me down that previous had belong to Dean, Caleb struggled to use it in order to call Will's mobile. There was no response, that was strange, Will wouldn't have gone out without her phone, nor would she ignore the buzzer. Caleb went down the alleyway out back of the building to the fire exit. Jumping up and pulling the ladder down Caleb quickly headed up pulling the ladder up behind him. Acceding slowly Caleb eventually got up to the window outside Will's and his room. Opening the window and jumping inside.
Looking around the bedroom, he took in that neither Will nor Brigitte where in here. Heading into rest of the apartment, Caleb was thrown into world of dread. Charred cardboard, littered the floor. Some of the furniture had been broken, and his family was nowhere in sight. Panicking, Caleb fumbled for his phone and tried to call Will again. The phone; know as Ed, rung from back in the bedroom, and as Will wasn't around its normal talking personality was absent. Will…WILL?" He called out to the house and started to search frantically. She wasn't here, neither was his daughter, and the apartment had obvious seen some sort of fray. Grabbing Ed, and finding Will's set of keys, Caleb stormed out of the house trying to figure out Will's phone in order to find one of the other girl's numbers. Managing to find Cornelia's number, Caleb pressed dial and waited for a response.
