Charmed!

Chapter 40: Hurt!

      Leo has been frozen for a month now. He had to freeze to save his life. The only way to save his life is to battle the ultimate battle and win. Piper has been video taping everything so Leo will feel like he never left whenever he gets back. Everyone thinks Piper is surprisingly dealing with this fine, but she's not. She has trouble going to sleep and she cries in her sleep. Billi has been living there and she's been with them for two months now. She was in Paige's room scrying. "Oh, hey Billie." Paige greeted as she walked in. "Hi." Billie greeted not looking up. "Is everything okay? What are you scrying for?" Paige asked. "Evil." Billie responded. "Why?" Paige asked. "To help find Christy, it could help get Leo back too." Billie replied as she finally looked up. "Leo's back?" Piper asked as she walked into the room. "No." Billie replied confused and Piper looked sad. "Piper, honey. Are you okay?" Paige asked. "Yeah, I'll be fine." Piper replied. "Are you sure?" Billie asked. "Don't. Ask again." Paige warned. "I said I'm fine!" Piper exclaimed making them both jumped. Piper was holding back tears and Paige and Billie new that. "I'm sorry." Piper apologized and then she ran out. "What was that about?" Billie asked. "She's hurting." Paige replied as she kept looking at the doorway.
    Piper layed Chris down to sleep and then layed on the floor next to Wyatt. "Hi, Wyatt." Piper greeted. "Hi!" Wyatt greeted as Piper let out a small laugh. "What are you doing?" Piper asked. "Playing!" Wyatt exclaimed and Piper smiled. "Are you having fun?" Piper asked. "Yes!" Wyatt replied and Piper looked down. "Mommy?" Wyatt asked and Piper's head shot up. "Yes, sweetie?" Piper asked. "When is daddy coming home?" Wyatt asked and a tear fell down Piper's cheek. "Soon." Piper croaked and a few more tears rolled down her cheeks. Piper wiped her tears and took a few deep breaths. "He'll be home soon, baby." Piper added. Piper picked Wyatt up and layed him on her bed and she layed next to him. She didn't even bother to pick up his toys. She didn't know that Prue, Phoebe, Paige, and Billie were watching her.
    They all sat on the couch in the living room. "What are we going to do?" Prue asked. "She's hurting, you know how she is when she's hurting." Phoebe stated. "How is she when she's hurting?" Billie asked. "She won't tell anyone how she feels and keeps her emotions in her. She tries to stay strong for everyone. She yells and cries a lot." Paige explained and Billie nodded. Piper was on the stairs listening to them talk. "I hate to say this, but we may never get Leo back." Prue stated. "Of course we will!" Phoebe protested. "You're in denial, like Piper. I love him just as much as you and I hate saying this but we have to face the facts. We might save him, but we might not." Prue explained and Piper ran back to her room devastated.
    Paige walked into Piper's room and saw the boys playing together. Piper walked into the room. She was wearing all black leather and her hair was in a tight bun. "What are you doing?" Paige asked. "You're right, or Prue's right. We're not going to get him back." Piper stated forcing the tears back. "Don't say that, we will." Paige insisted. "No! We won't!" Piper exclaimed as she lifted her hands up and accidentally made Paige's arm bleed. Paige screamed. "I am so sorry!" Piper apologized. Billie ran in. "What's wrong?" Billie asked and then she saw. Piper ran out and Billie went over to help Paige.
    Piper was gone all night and no one knows where he is. Piper was in an alley and summoned an elder an an avator, the same ones came as last time. "Not this again!" The elder exclaimed. "What do you want?" The avator asked. "How could you do this?" Piper asked in tears. "Do what?" The avator asked. "You know what I'm talking about." Piper stated. "We're sorry about Leo, but...." The elder started. "No buts! He helped you both and was on both of your sides at one point. I'm sorry if you elders don't like that he teamed up with the avators, but he thought he was doing the right thing, but he eventually realised he made a mistake and risked his life to change his mistake! And I'm sorry if he stopped your stupid Utopia, but innocent people should not die! He was doing the right thing, so don't let him die because you're both angry with him. I'm a mess, his kids miss him and I can't, I can't live like this. You both have put me, my family, and especially Leo through hell. I, he deserves better then this, he didn't deserve this. He's done so much, risked his life for so much only to get so little. You guys owe it to me and my family and especially him to being him back with me and he won't die. Let him, let us be happy for once." Piper explained. "There's nothing we can do." The elder stated. "Only finding, and beating this big threat can save him." The avator stated. "No! I won't allow that! Screw you! Screw both of you!" Piper exclaimed and used one hand to blow up the avator and the other to blow up the elder, but neither of them died. "I never want to see either of your kind again." Piper stated not looking at them. They both disappeared and Piper collapsed on the ground and was crying.
      Piper walked back in the manner to find Prue, Phoebe, Paige, and Billie. They all gave her a hug. "Where have you been?" Prue asked. "I'm sorry. I just needed time alone." Piper replied. "Don't scare us like that again." Phoebe stated and Piper nodded in agreement. "We're just glade your okay." Paige added. "Are you okay?" Billie asked and they all looked at her. "Sorry." Billie apologized in a whisper. "It's fine." Piper reassured and they all looked at her. Piper took a deep breath. "I'm sorry fi r yelling and blowing things up. I was just hurting. I just really need Leo." Piper explained and they all nodded. They don't know how Piper feels, but they can at least be there for her.
