Once healed Leo was able to regain consciousness and Piper recited the reversal spell. Prue happily made the broom dance and Piper froze it, to Cordelia's relief. Although that still left the question of what powers she might have herself. But first they had to deal with Alec and protect Daisy.

"I left her at a motel." Leo explained. "I needed to talk to you girls before just springing her on to you and I've cloaked her from Alec's sensing ability.

"Talk to us, you mean about how you have powers but never managed to tell us about them." Piper glared at him.

"You weren't supposed to find out." Leo answered. "You were just supposed to be another assignment and most of our charges never find out we're whitelighters while we're guiding them. All we're supposed to do is offer advice, guidance. Free will means you make choice's for yourself. I was just supposed to help you get through the first few months of having powers. I wasn't supposed to get involved with you. It's forbidden actually."

"Like a teacher being involved with a student or a doctor with a patient?" Xander asked.

"To a certain extent, yes. But there's the fact that we're both powerful beings and some fear what the joining of so much power might result in."

"So you just took off, left." Piper muttered.

"Before I was ordered to. Sooner or later my bosses would have realized I'd developed feelings for you and that would not have gone over well."

"You two are going to need to sit down and have this out." Cordelia said. "But right now there's a scared woman out there being stalked and that's going to have to be the priority right now."

"You're right." Leo agreed. "I'm sorry, I forgot to ask your name.

"Cordelia Chase and he's my boyfriend, Xander Harris."

"Cordelia Chase and Xander Harris?" Leo asked, looking startled. "of Sunnydale?"

"Uh, yeah." Xander answered. "Please don't tell me I've got a reputation with you guys too!"

"The Scooby Gang is notorious, but you broke a prophecy out the Pergamon Codex, rewrote Buffy Summers Destiny. And a lot of other people were affected as a result."

"Your bosses wouldn't happen to be those so called Powers, would they? Obsessed with balance and insisting what's been done to me can't be changed?"

"No, they're a totally separate group and we rarely interact. Unfortunately, they're also more powerful than we are."

"Crap." Xander muttered. "I swear if I ever meet them -."

"Woman to save, rant later." Cordelia reminded him. "How do we kill a darklighter? Because he's obsessed and he's not going to stop coming after her."

"I honestly don't know how to kill a darklighter." Leo confessed. "Whitelighters are pacifists. Witches defending themselves have been able to kill darklighters, I know that."

"The girls' powers aren't lethal in and of themselves." Xander said. "But Piper can freeze a demon and Prue can shove something through it's chest. Stake, vampire, used to be how we did it until I introduced shotguns to the group. A vanquishing spell might be a better idea."

"We'll keep the vampire killing method in reserve." Prue said. "I like the vanquishing idea myself."

"While we work on a vanquishing spell," Piper said. "Leo, you should go get Daisy. Xander put a Sanctuary Ward on the house to prevent violence in the house. If this darklighter shows up here and tries something, he'll be knocked unconscious."

"Good idea. On both counts actually." Leo orbed out and returned a few minutes later with a pretty woman about Prue's age and once introductions were complete, Phoebe took her to the kitchen to get her something to eat.

"I think I've got something." Prue said, showing the others the spell she'd come up with.

"Let's find him and try it." Phoebe agreed after reading it.

"How are we going to find him?" Piper asked.

"He's looking for Daisy." Xander said. "And Leo's got her cloaked. Let's have one of the girls glamour into Daisy's appearance and we magically duplicate her essence, we draw Alec into a trap. Leo and I will be nearby as back up."

"Sounds like a plan." Prue agreed. "I'll be the one glamoring. There's a spell in the Book of Shadows on how to do it."

"I'll keep Daisy company." Cordelia said. "And after you're done vanquishing the sorry creep, we can get started on solving the mystery of my powers."

"We'll figure it out, Cordy, I promise." Xander assured her. "Where's a good place we can set up this ambush anyway?"

"Buckland's is closed right now." Prue said. "And the garage is empty and big."

"That should work." Xander agreed. "Alright, Leo, start orbing, as my Queen said, we've got a sorry creep to vanquish."

Which they managed to do with surprisingly little effort. Apparently, being ambushed never occured to him.
