CHAPTER 11

A/N: The song in this chapter is "Kryptonite" by Three Doors Down

Also, I haven't done this in a while so DISCLAIMER! I don't own anything exept the characters you don't recognise :)


If I go crazy then will you still call me superman? / If I'm alive and well will you be there holding my hand? / I'll keep you by my side with my superhuman might / Kryptonite / You call me strong you call me weak but still your secrets I will keep…

The song blared from the speakers of Leigh's stereo.

Leigh was dancing around her room eating ice-cream out of the tub. She placed it down on the table and began to spin around. She just felt like having fun after the craziness of the previous night.

She didn't want to worry about being half demon at the moment. She was so busy not caring, that she didn't notice the bright blue ball of electricity growing in her palm until it was too late. It went shooting into the wall, leaving a hole in the wall.

She clasped her hand over her mouth in shock.

What the hell was that?

"Leo!" she screamed and he appeared before her with a distressed look on his face.

"What is it? What's wrong?" he asked. She pointed to the hole in the wall. "What happened? Did a demon attack?"

"No…I did that. This blue ball thingy shot out of my hands!" she said and Leo winced.

"Well, that confirms the Elders' theory."

"Why? What was that thingy?"

"Did it look like electricity?" Leigh nodded. "Then it was an energy ball. Only upper-level demons have that power."


Leigh sighed as she packed the rest of her belongings into the suitcase. Leo had tried to make her feel better by telling her that she could probably shimmer too, but it didn't work. She took one last glance around the apartment and headed down to the lobby of the building. She handed the key to the receptionist and Leo led her to a corner of the room where no one could see. He placed a hand on her shoulder and they orbed back to the manor.

They landed in the attic where Paige, Phoebe and a tall guy she'd never seen before were looking in the Book of Shadows. Phoebe looked up and saw Leigh with her suitcases. She stood up and walked over to her.

"Hey Leigh-Anna, what's going on?" she asked, placing a hand caringly on Leigh's arm.

"According to Leo, I'm moving in. turns out I am half demon." She said not bothering to hide the hurt in her voice. Phoebe took her by surprise by pulling her into a tight hug.

"I'll help you unpack your stuff." She said and leading Leigh out of the attic. "When we're done, get Piper and we'll all talk about this. Oh and Leigh-Anna, this is my husband Coop." Phoebe said gesturing to the man.

Coop smiled and waved.

"So, sweetie, are you okay?" Phoebe asked once they were alone and out of earshot.

"I don't know this is all happening at once." She replied stepping into the room she slept in the previous night.

"I understand. When we got our powers it was just like 'bam, you're the most powerful witches in the world, you must fight all the demons'. We had no one to guide us and no one to help."

"Really?" Phoebe nodded. "What about your parents?"

"Our mom died when we were little, our dads weren't around much."

"Dads?"

"Our mom had an affair with her whitelighter, Paige's dad. We didn't even know about her until five years ago after our oldest sister Prue died."

"Oh, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to bring up a touchy subject."

"It fine, but what I'm trying to say, is that you can trust us and we'll help you however you need."

"Oddly, I do trust you guys. You've been really nice even though you've got no reason to trust me either."

"Trust works both ways; if we want to be trusted we have to trust you. And I want you to know, I'm here if you ever need to talk. Not just about magic, about anything. I'm an advice columnist so I usually know what I'm talking about."

"Thanks." Leigh smiled. "I'll keep that in mind."

"So, I heard you and Sam had a bit of a chat today."

"Yeah, I guess so."

"What did you talk about?"

"Nothing much, I just told him I wasn't mad and stuff. It wasn't anything that interesting."

"He's pretty good looking."

"He is definitely of the cute."

"What about Dean?" she asked, hanging up some of the younger girl's dresses.

"A bit too old and pretty for my taste, but I think he seems interested in Paige." Leigh smirked.

"Paige needs to get laid, she's wound so tightly and it has been forever for her."

"I don't think I needed to know that," Leigh said followed by a small laugh "but there are definitely sparks between those two."
