102No such things as mercy if you are a Halliwell
Chapter 22: Ensuring Chris happy existence
A/N: There it is the end... =( What should we do?
Well just read on and enjoy! Oh and you can tell me what you think of this story.
Please.
On with the story:
And they were busy.
Busy with making the stuff that was needed to kick Jo`s ass.
Phoebe got the ingredients. Paige handed them to Piper. Piper `cooked` the potion.
All the while Phoebe thought of a spell that could help them.
Leo had brought paper and pencil and had already checked on with the elders to get as much information about Jo as possible.
Chris remained unconscious with Wyatt and Andie in Piper`s bedroom.
After a couple of minutes all was done.
"I got the spell!" Phoebe exclaimed.
"Potion`s ready!" Piper announced.
"Ready to go?" Leo asked.
"YES!" Paige answered.
They orbed out of the house.
Wyatt mumbled quietly.
Andie felt the need to talk to the little guy.
"Your brother needs to sleep in order to get better Wyatt. He is ill and needs his rest."
His gaze wandered over Chris´ battered body, assessing the damage and planning the treatment.
"Do you know Wyatt? That is a cast not a stone on your brother´s leg. It helps your brother to heal better."
His gaze travelled up again.
"His finger is broken. But it`ll be okay soon, too."
He watched the relaxed facial features of his patient.
"As soon as he is ready to wake up, he will. See Wyatt your brother was really really tired back then. It could take some time."
Wyatt replied something in baby talk.
"When he is better he will be up and around. Then he can play with you again."
After watching them for a moment he said.
"Come on Wy,you stay here. I`ll fetch something to eat and drink. Just watch over you bro will ya?"
Andie left the room smiling to fetch some candies.
"Long time no see Jo," Piper greeted the demon.
"Is that Piper?" Jo asked.
"The one and only," Piper answered.
"I thought we vanquished you already Jo," Paige stated confused.
"I am afraid you only got my twin brother Jo."
"Huh?" Phoebe asked confused.
"Well apparently all of my siblings are called Jo," Jo replied and smirked.
"Very funny," Paige deadpanned.
"Of course those are only the nicknames!" Jo defended himself.
"As in Josefine, Joseph, John, and so on?" Leo asked looking as if he was going to roll his eyes.
"Exactly! But you will never know how many of us are out there!" Jo hissed and started an energy ball.
"Okay guys change in plans!" Piper whistled.
"I am open for any kind of suggestions Piper!" Phoebe replied as Jo threw the first ball at Paige who orbed out just in time.
"Leo and Paige you help me with fighting this Jo. And you Phoebe think of a spell that could summon all Jos here. Well only the ones of his family of course!" Piper explained.
"Okay!" All of them agreed.
Piper blew Jo up.
Paige orbed the energy balls out of people`s harm way.
Leo attacked with electricity.
And Phoebe was busy with thinking.
"I got one!" She suddenly cried and waved at them.
"Then spell it!" Piper shouted back.
"Will it work?" Phoebe asked.
"We only need the power of three for the vanquishing part Pheebs!" Piper replied.
"Yeah and nobody would be that stupid to call all Jos at once!" Paige added.
"Just do it!" Leo urged.
"Okay!" Phoebe replied.
"Let the demons called Jo
come all here now
so that we can face them and try
to give right to our future nephew guy.
They all need to be at this place
So let them come from across space!"
As soon as Phoebe was finished the atmosphere changed.
"There must be a lot of them!" Leo warned them as bit by bit a couple of shimmers came in.
"I count 10 no,... more!" Paige shouted.
"Doesn`t matter guys!" Piper shouted. "Just stick to the plan!"
"What plan?" Phoebe asked but was reminded when the last demon Jo was there.
"Hurry girls!" Leo urged and they began to chant:
"Let this evil here,
that we fear
get punished for their mistakes
and vanquish its bits
no matter what it takes
as long as it fits."
All along they threw all of their potions and Leo added some electricity.
Before any of the Jos could have done anything let alone speak anything they were gone.
"Are they...?" Paige asked as she spotted the ash on the ground.
"I hope so..." Piper muttered.
"I believe," Phoebe panted, "that we did it"
"Great work guys," Leo praised them.
"It only worked because this Jo told us that he had more Jos in his family," Piper reminded them.
"That proofs that demons are indeed stupid!" Paige said.
"Hey! One example does not count for the whole community!"Phoebe interjected.
"Says you," Paige rolled her eyes.
"I`m just saying!" Phoebe tried to defend herself.
"It`s alright. She`s right," Piper said and gave her ex-husband a hug. "Thanks sweetie for backing us up here."
"Anytime Piper," Leo said and smiled at her.
"You know that you cannot do that with the human race either!" Phoebe added.
"It`s okay Phoebe! We got it!" Paige cut her off.
"Let`s just get home. I am dying to know how my sons... OUR sons are doing," Piper said and smiled at Leo.
He grinned at her.
"Yeah our nephews need their aunties!" Phoebe squealed.
"Aunties?!" Paige said. "They need their favorite aunt!" And with that she orbed out.
"That`s not fair!" Phoebe complained and ran over to Leo. "Hurry, orb!"
Leo laughed but obeyed.
Piper could not hold back a giggle.
As soon as they got back they saw a heartbreaking scene.
Wyatt lay in Chris left arm and slept deeply. Chris was also still out of it. But his arm was protectively over Wyatt.
Paige stood next to Andie and looked at the sleeping couple.
As Piper, Leo and Phoebe orbed in they shushed them.
"Let them sleep," Paige advised.
"Can I talk to you for a minute?" Andie asked the parents.
"Sure. Come on out," Piper said but had already her bad feeling back.
Leo followed them outside.
Phoebe got over to Paige. "I AM the best aunt ever."
"No I AM. But I can prove it to you as soon as one of them wakes up," Paige replied and grinned evil.
"What did you do?" Phoebe whispered back. "A spell?"
"NO!" Paige insisted. "I am just cool."
"Oh... Well I am more..." but Phoebe could not think of something right now as her little nephew yawned and turned to his brother. He looked at his brother and settled back to sleep.
"Okay... we wait `til they wake up." She said and looked at her nephews.
Paige smiled and nodded still watching the scene.
Outside the door stood the other three people.
"What is it Andie?" Leo asked as he sensed that his wife could not speak loud.
"Oh it`s no bad news. Relax. I just wanted to say that if he keeps sleeping he will recover from the poison eventually," Andie explained.
"Thank God" Piper whispered.
"Well it could take some more time as it took you, Leo or your sisters and son, Piper, considering that Chris was exposed to the poison for longer. But that will only throw him back for a day at top. Otherwise the leg... well that could last longer but twisted bones heal and his finger will too. Just give him time. Maybe he can be healed when the poison is out of his system. You can give it a try."
"Thank you Andie," Leo said as Andie was finished.
"Anytime Leo. Your wife and family do so much to help the world that this was the last I could do in return. Just keep your boys safe will ya?"
"Of course. They are my life," Piper admitted and added, "Thank you so much for your help. I don`t know where we were without you Andie." She hugged him.
"I help when I can," He replied and made a gesture. "I have to leave. My parents want to see me. We go to a restaurant."
"Oh have fun Andie," Leo said.
"And greet them from us!" Piper added as Andie was already at the stairs. "Yeah and you greet Phoebe, Paige, Chris and Wyatt. I`ll call in some days to see how they are okay?"
"Sure thing!" Piper said.
As he had left she turned to her husband.
"Look Piper, I am sorry. Sorry for everything I put you and our family through," Leo began to explain.
"Funny. I was just about to say the same." Piper said.
"Well I will try to visit you more frequently – if you agree. – I can help with the boys. And I can help in the household..."
"Leo you don`t have to. But I would like to see you around more frequently. And the boys do need a father. And for now I wish that we too had a room for ourselves..." she added as a whisper.
"Well that is no problem. Paige, Phoebe," Leo whispered in the room and said as they turned to him. "Can you two watch over them? We are out for a date."
"Sure thing Leo. Have a nice time!" Paige said and Phoebe gave him thumbs up and her "everything-will-be-great-look".
He turned around only to be greeted with Piper who leaned forward to kiss him.
As they broke apart from the lack of air she whispered. "Leo Wyatt, I do love you."
And Leo answered as he was already orbing them somewhere: "You are the best that has ever happened to me, Piper Halliwell. And I love you so much that I can`t put it in words."
And he thought that he had never seen her that happy before.
Epilogue:
This night Piper and Leo had a great night.
They made Baby Chris and saved his very existence.
They gave themselves another chance and Leo promised once more that he would stay around longer and more frequently. Well the elders did not know about those plans but they would find out soon enough...
Paige and Phoebe continued arguing about who the best aunt would be until late in the night.
All the while they had the baby phone with them.
They had left the two boys in Piper`s bed after they tugged them into blankets and gave them kisses.
Would either one of them had been awake the aunts would have gotten into a lot of trouble.
But they were still asleep so Phoebe and Paige had enough time to argue.
In the early morning they gave up and promised that the boys had to decide.
They got into their beds only to find themselves in front of Piper`s bedroom door again.
Of course neither of them admitted it but they waited for them to wake up.
Andie had a great dinner with his parents.
He told them about Chris and the Charmed Ones. He praised Wyatt and his dad.
The whole conversation was about that story and his parents were hooked up with the events.
They promised to visit Chris as soon as he was better and drank a toast to their son.
