Revenge
By LeoAngel
Note: If you have read Remember me Please and a little in
Back Here I made Leo have a sister named Julie. She is a good witch right now.
In this we get to find out a little more about her. Don’t worry you don’t
have to read Remember me to understand this
because it is not a sequel.
Ok I’ll stop. This takes place a few weeks after Leo died and became a white
lighter. And I will be going to present day but you will know when it happens.
*I think it would be sister
in-law right I don’t have any brothers or sisters so I don’t really know
sorry if I am wrong*
Julie sat in her room tears
streaming down her cheeks. Her head was in her hands as she sat Indian style on
her bed. It had been three weeks since she had heard the terrible news. Although
her mother, father, and sister in-law where torn up Julie had to
be the worst off. She was
very close to her brother and then he enlisted to go off to war. That’s the
first time Julie’s heart had beat fast in fear. She knew many people never
came back from wars. Leo had insisted he would be fine after all he wasn’t
fighting just trying to help people. Never the less he had died someone had just
blown his brains out. It angered Julie to think that someone could do this to
her brother. She sobbed even harder thinking of the pain someone caused him,
thinking of the pain someone caused her.
Leo watched in his
unmaterilzed form. It pained him to see his little sister in so much distress.
He wanted more than anything to go to her and hold her. Leo knew he could not do
that; it would be against the rules. Being someone new at this whitelighter
business he couldn’t break any rules so early in the game. He just starred at
his little sister hoping there parents would come in to comfort her. Even if
they did it wouldn’t help much nothing could really help Julie. Nothing of
course except her brother. Slowly Julie drifted off to sleep. This was the only
way the elders would let him communicate with his family members. Leo could only
do this once to each family member. He had
already gone to his wife in
her dreams. Somehow Leo knew it would be harder to make Julie move on in her
life.
He closed his eyes as his
body entered the dream state of mind.
“Oh my god Leo you’re
alive!” Julie exclaimed running to Leo.
She hugged him tight not
wanting to let go.
“No I have come to say
goodbye. To tell you, you must move on in your life.” Leo answered hugging his
sister back.
“No I don’t want you to
go. I don’t want to lose you its to much to bear. I am 20 years old yet I feel
like I am a scared 10 year old. You can’t leave me.” Julie sobbed into
Leo’s chest.
“I’m sorry but I have to
go. You will get along without me. Just remember that I will always love you.
Plus I will always be with you.” Leo pulled away from Julie and pointed to her
heart as he said this.
“How could they take my
only brother away? After all the demons and monsters I have destroyed this is
how they repay me. Screw them I’m never going to use magic again!” Julie
yelled.
“I don’t know why they
decided it was my time to go. Just remember everything happens for a reason.
It’s your choice to stop helping people, but I wish you
wouldn’t. You have done so
much good and I don’t want you to stop because of me.” Leo said pulling her
into another hug. He heard the ringing sound that happens
when the elders call him.
“I have to go now.”
“NOOOOOO please
don’t.” Julie pleaded.
“I’m sorry I have to. I
will always love you. Remember I want you to move on.” He then pulled away
from Julie as she started to cry even more.
In a seconds time he
disappeared into little orbs and was gone. Julie sat in her dream world crying
not wanting to move on in anything.
*One year later*
Leo again was in his
unmaterlized stage looking at his sister. He hadn’t seen her since that last
time when he went to her in her dreams. It was against the rules to ever go back
but rules where meant to be broking. Besides he would never let her see him and
Leo had racked up a lot of
points in the whitelighter business. He was a natural and had already saved a
lot of people. Leo just wanted to check up on Julie. Make sure she had really
moved on in her life.
She had indeed moved on.
Julie was deeply involved with this young man and she had again started to save
innocents. Suddenly Leo heard the ringing of the elders. He sighed and orb to
wherever he orbs. In front of him 14 elders sat in large white chairs.
“You wanted me?” Leo
asked.
“Yes it is about your
sister.” One of the female whitelighters announced.
“I’m sorry I just had to
make sure she was doing alright. I would never make myself seen by her. I was
just checking up.” Leo said trying to defend himself.
“Hold on that’s not the
reason why we called you. Julie is going to come up against a dangerous demon.
You are going to go help her defeat it.” A male whitelighter explained.
“Me no I think someone
else should take this job. I don’t want to upset Julie.”
“Normally we would never
send a family member but we are short on whitelighters. Everyone is doing double
time due to some clipping their wings. We need a whitelighter to help protect
her and you are the only one who isn’t on a case. We don’t even know if you
both together will be able to handle this demon. We do know if no one tires to
help then she is dead for sure.” Hearing the older white lighter say this made
Leo alarmed.
“I’ll do it then.” Leo
announced. “What do you want me to do?” Leo asked.
“This demon uses your
magic against you. He also has the power to make mortals ill. He can be
destroyed by saying this spell.” One of the white lighters handed
Leo a spell.
“This isn’t going to be
easy Leo. Normally we would never give this much information on a demon but this
time you must have it. Now go.” Another one added. Leo then orbed out.
“You think we did the
right thing. He has only been a whitelighter for a year. He is very young and
still in training.” One of the young elders asked.
“What happens happens if
he fails we have a new whitelighter.”
Meanwhile Leo stood in front
of his sister still invisible to her. He didn’t know how to tell her this. He
deiced to just appear the sooner he got it over with the sooner Julie would be
safe.
“Oh my god.” A
21-year-old Julie exclaimed as her dead brother came into view.
“Julie.” Leo whispered
with tears in his eyes. He couldn’t hold back the emotion.
“Oh Leo I have missed you
so much. I went on in my life like you said but there is this empty hole where
you are suppose to be.” Julie cried.
Leo pulled her into his
strong arms and she stayed there taking in his scent.
“How is this possible am I
dreaming again?” Julie asked pulling away.
“No you aren’t
dreaming.”
“So your alive!” Julie
gasped trying to hold in her excitement.
“No you see I am a
whitelighter.”
“White whatever?”
“A whitelighter they help
guide witches and future whitelighters.” Leo explained.
“Oh.”
“I have come to help you.
A very strong demon is coming for you. We must destroy him.”
“How do we do that?”
“Say this spell.” Leo
answered giving her the paper with the spell.
“Sounds easy.” Julie
replied looking over the spell.
“They said it wasn’t
going to be.”
“They?”
“Never mind I am not going
to get you into it now.”
“Lets go.” Leo wrapped
his arms around Julie and they orbed to the cave the elders said he would be at.
The cave was very dark and
damp. Julie squeezed Leo’s hand as they looked around. No one appeared to be
home until they heard laughing.
“Ha ha ha you really think
you can destroy me?” The demon snickered.
“Start the spell.” Leo
commanded. Both Leo and Julie started to chant.
“You know what’s so good
about being able to use witches powers? Well I’ll tell you they have some
pretty dam cool spells. Like this one that makes you immune to that spell you
are saying.” He snickered again.
“Leo what do we do now?”
Julie asked starting to get frighten she had never come up against something so
evil.
The demon threw Leo against
the wall of the cave with his telekinesis. Seeing this Julie blow fire towards
the demon. The demon easily avoided it.
“Oh thank you for using
your powers against me now I can kill you directly.” Leo got up and pulled
Julie towards him they then orbed out.
“You can’t run from
me.” He then inspected his necklace. “Ahh a dream weaving witch this will be
fun.”
Leo and Julie orbed back
into Julie’s room.
“What do we do Leo?”
Julie asked sitting on her bed.
“I don’t know there must
be some way to vanquish him. There has to be.” Leo said sitting next to her.
“Well let’s get some
rest I am sure we can figure something out in the morning.” Julie explained.
“Oh where are you going to sleep?"
“The floors fine.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yep.”
“Well take these.” Julie
threw down a pillow and a blanket.
“Thanks.” Julie laid
back and started to drift off.
She thought about how her
life had become so complicated since she got her powers. She wasn’t a very
strong witch all she could do was dream weave and blow fire. She suddenly fell
fast asleep and started to dream.
Julie was standing in a
white room. She looked around and spotted her boyfriend John.
“John what are you doing
here?” She asked pulling him to her.
“I’ve come to see
you.” He whispered. They started to dance. The world around them changed to a
deep red.
“Oh John I love you.”
“Julie you are so hot.”
Julie blushed hearing this comment.
Suddenly she started to get
extremely hot. She started to get weak and she fell into a chair that appeared
behind her.
“Once you used one of your
powers on me I get to use them all. I love dream weaver.” John then turned
into the demon Julie had faced earlier.
“No get out of my
dream!”
“Not tell your dead.” He
picked Julie up and put his hands around her neck. “How does it feel to be so
helpless?”
Ignoring his words Julie
started to chant the spell Leo had shown her earlier.
“What are you
doing witch? It didn’t work before and it’s not going to work now.”
Suddenly the demon felt
himself becoming warm. He dropped Julie to the ground as she still chanted. His
skin burned a bright red like the sky had turned.
“If I go then you’re
going to.” With the last bit of his strength the demon made a knife appear.
He thrusted into Julie pain
went all through her body. Blood soaked out from the wound. She stopped chanting
from the pain but it was to late.
The demon disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
Leo opened his eyes hearing
a scream come from his sister. He quickly pulled himself up and looked at her.
She was covered with blood.
“Oh my god Julie.” He
yelled going to her. Julie opened her eyes to look at Leo.
“Leo I did it he came to
me in my dreams and I killed him.” She choked out.
“Oh god Julie hold on.”
He put his hands on the wound his hands started to glow.
Leo had not mastered the art
of healing it was the hardest part of the job. He
could heal small things but
this was a huge gash in her stomach. His hands glowed but nothing happen.
“Dam, if you where ever to
work work now for god sakes!” Leo yelled.
“Leo I love you. Thank you
for helping me. Goodbye.” Julie then gasped her last breath.
“No Julie no no this
isn’t supposed to happen Julie no!”
***********************************
“No no no
Julie please no don’t leave me!”
Piper awoke to Leo tossing
and turning. He was yelling something about Julie in his sleep. Sweat covered
his body all over.
“Leo honey wake up.”
Piper said softly awakening Leo.
He sat up abruptly breathing
heavily. Tears started to stream down his cheeks. Piper quickly pulled him into
a hug.
“Shhh its ok. I’m here
shhh.” Piper’s voice was always soothing to Leo.
They stayed that way for
almost an hour.
“Now tell me about the
nightmare.” Piper demanded as Leo calmed down.
The thought of anything
wrong with her whitelighter always made Piper upset.
“Its nothing.” Leo
answered laying back down. “I don’t even remember it really.” Leo lied.
“Leo Wyatt don’t you
dare lie to me!” Piper said sternly lifting Leo back up.
She made him look her in the
eyes so she knew he was telling the truth. One of
the things Piper noticed
about Leo was he could never lie to her while looking straight into her eyes.
“Now tell me please. I
want to help.” Piper added in a sweet voice.
She slipped her hand into
his clammy one to reassure him. Leo of course knew he could trust Piper with his
life but he didn’t like talking about his sister.
“I was dreaming about my
sister. A long time ago a year after I died I went to help her. She was a good
witch to. Well a strong demon went after her I tried to help but I couldn’t.
She died and I couldn’t heal her or anything. I can’t help but think I could
ha.” Before Leo could finish Piper told him,
“No it’s not your fault
Leo. You know all things happen for a reason. Everything does.”
“I know I know, I mean I
shouldn’t be upset. She is a whitelighter now and says she is happier than
ever but…..” Piper pulled Leo in for another hug.
“You blame yourself for
two many things.” Piper whispered.
“I don’t know why I am
having that dream now though. I mean it has been a long time. I haven’t had
that dream for so long.”
“I don’t know honey.”
“Lets go back to sleep we
have a long day tomorrow.”
“Are you sure?”
“Yes I am fine.” Leo
laid back down pulling Piper down with him.
She leaned her head on his
chest and wrapped her arms tightly around him. She loved listening to his steady
heartbeat and him breathing.
“I love you Leo.” Piper
said sighing.
“I love you to.” Leo
whispered kissing piper on the forehead.
***********************************
“Matroonne Solastso
Astonao.” Meanwhile in a dark cave a deep voice repeated these words over and
over. His eyes glowed a dark red as he chanted. After a few minutes he stopped.
“In a few short hours she
will become sick then everything will fall in place.” The man disappeared from
his dark cave to who knows where.
***********************************
Piper awoke very hot and
clammy. She ignored the feeling and wiggled her way out of Leo’s arms. He had
had a hard night and she didn’t want to wake him up. Piper quietly creped
downstairs into the kitchen. Their Prue sat drinking her morning coffee.
“Morning Piper.” Prue
greeted as Piper walked in. “Morning Prue do you want some breakfast?” Piper
asked standing near the stove.
“No I have to get to a
photo shot. I should be going now. I’ll meet you guys at the club tonight
kk?” Prue got up and grabbed her stuff.
“Yeah ok cya.” Prue then
left to go to her job.
“Well I guess I should
make some breakfast for Phoebe and Leo.” Piper told herself getting the
makings to make waffles. “Nothing to big. Phoebe probably has class
and Leo will probably get
called.”
Suddenly Piper heard someone
coming down the stairs. Leo appeared at the door to the kitchen with Phoebe on
his heals.
“Morning guys, I’m
making waffles.” Piper greeted.
“Morning beautiful.” Leo
said bringing Piper in for a kiss.
“Oh come on not so early
in the morning.” Phoebe complained.
Leo and Piper just laughed
as Phoebe sunk down in her chair.
“Any more dreams?” Piper
asked looking at Leo worriedly.
“Nope slept like a
brick.” Leo replied.
“What dream?” Phoebe
interrupted.
“Nothing to worry
about.” Leo said giving her a reassuring look.
“Alright.”
“Piper you are really
hot.” Leo commented putting his hand to her forehead.
“Why thank you.” Piper
answered.
“No I didn’t mean it
like that. Are you feeling alright are you sick?” Leo asked getting worried.
“So you mean I’m not
hot.” Piper asked in that fake upset voice.
“No I didn’t say that.
You’re avoiding the question.”
“I just have a little
headache. Nothing to worry about.” Piper answered pulling away from Leo.
“Are you sure last time
you didn’t feel well….” Leo let his statement hang in the air.
“Leo I am fine.”
“Well maybe I should go to
the club you can stay home.” Leo replied.
“And what happens if they
call you?” Piper asked.
“Hey Pheebs have any
classes today?” Leo said returning his attention to the younger Halliwell.
Piper went back to her
waffles but listening to them clearly.
“No not tell this
afternoon. I can go to the club with you.” Phoebe replied.
“Well I’m not staying
home. You both can come back not with out me.” Piper said sternly placing the
waffles in front of Leo and Phoebe.
“Well I guess that’s
better than nothing.” Phoebe commented. “Yumm these are great.”
“It looks good.” Leo
commented still worried but changing the subject.
He knew once she had the
tone there was no way to make her change her mind.
“Thank you.” Piper said
sitting down on Leo’s lap.
“I don’t recall having a
shortest on chairs.” Phoebe joked.
“Very funny.” Piper said
sarcastically.
The three of them ate their
waffles and got ready to go down to the club. In an hour they where at P3
setting up.
“Pheebs you make sure all
the tables are clean enough. Leo you make sure we have all the ingredients for
the drinks. And I am going to go check on some of
the clubs paper work.”
Piper said heading to her office.
Phoebe and Leo did as they
where told and soon where done.
“Piper we are done now
what do you want us to do?” Phoebe yelled. Piper immured from her office.
“Help me check the sound
system.” She replied heading over to it. Phoebe and Leo followed her over.
Suddenly Leo look towards the sky.
“Piper I gotta go.”
“Oh ok. You’ll be back
tonight right?” Piper asked.
“I’ll do my best.”
They hugged then Leo turned towards Phoebe. “Make sure she doesn’t over do
it.” Then Leo materialized into blue orbs.
“Oh he has to be more
careful he shouldn’t have done that right there.” Piper said looking at the
spot where Leo had been.
Phoebe just smiled and both
the girls got back to checking the system. After they did
that Prue walked in.
“Hey Prue thought you
weren’t coming home tell tonight.” Piper commented as Prue walked in.
“I got done early.” Prue
answered.
“Oh geez look at the time
I gotta get to class. Bye.” Phoebe yelled running out the door.
“So you need any help?”
Prue asked looking back to her sister.
“Nope I am just about done
here. God I am so hot. Are you hot or is it just me?” Piper stated trying to
fan herself.
“I think its just you its
kind of cold to me.” Prue replied talking a seat at the bar. Prue noticed how
pale Piper looked. “Oh hun are you sick?”
“No just not feeling tip
top today.” Piper said as she tumbled to the ground.
“Oh my god Piper not
again.” Prue rushed to Piper.
She quickly checked for a
pulse. There was one there but it wasn’t beating normally. “Piper! Piper! Oh
god Piper!” Prue felt tears sting her eyes. “Leo! Leo! Leo! Please Leo I need your help!” Prue yelled to the sky.
Suddenly blue orbs appeared in front of Prue. Leo materialized and quickly knelt
down.
“What happen?” He asked
frantic.
“I don’t know just heal
her.” Prue said letting tears fall. Leo put his hands on Piper. His hands
glowed a vibrant gold. He closed his eyes focusing all his powers going into
Piper’s body.
After a few minutes the glow
faded and Leo loosened up. Piper stirred and opened her eyes.
“You did it Leo!” Prue
exclaimed hugging her sister.
Leo sat back on his knees
trying to catch his breath. For some reason he was exhausted from this healing.
Usually it didn’t take this much of his strength.
“Prue what happen?”
Piper asked hugging her sister.
“You fated again. Leo came
and healed you.” Prue let go of Piper knowing her sister wanted to get to her
boyfriend.
“Oh Leo are you going to
lose your wings again because of me.” Piper cried falling into his arms.
“I don’t know sweetie
but it’s alright. Anything better than losing you. Next time listen to us and
relax how many times does this have to happen.” Leo said stroking her hair.
“Leo I am so sorry. I
don’t know what I would do if I didn’t have you. If I didn’t have you and
Prue and Phoebe.” Piper started to cry even harder. Leo hugged
trying to comfort her.
“Its ok honey. Lets go
home and get some rest.” Leo said soothingly.
“Ok.”
“Do you want me to orb?”
“Yeah.” Piper answered
whipping away her tears. Leo and Piper started to orb out but suddenly they
reappeared.
“Leo are you ok?” Piper
asked worriedly as he almost fell back on the counter. He put his hands on the
bar to steady himself. “What’s wrong did they take your
powers?”
“No I I think I’m just
tired.” Leo replied.
Piper quickly went to his
side not putting her weight on him. She could see he was having a hard time
keeping himself up. Piper felt more tears stream down her
cheeks. Leo saw this and
pulled her closer to him.
“Hey Piper don’t worry.
I’m just a little weak from healing you. You had something very strong.” Leo
once again tired to comfort Piper.
“Has has this ever happen
before.” Piper choked on her words.
“Yeah its happen before
don’t worry. Prue can you drive us home?” Leo lied.
He had no idea what was
wrong with him and this had
never happen. He knew he shouldn’t lie but he wanted to calm Piper down. He
made sure not to make eye contact. He knew if he stared into those gorgeous
brown eyes that he would melt and tell her the truth. Piper didn’t notice that
Leo was avoiding eye contact.
“Sure I’ll drive home. I
think we need to go to the book of shadows. Maybe a demon did this.” Prue
replied taking Piper’s purse.
She pulled the keys to
Piper’s jeep and the three of them went outside. Leo was
feeling better but still a
weak. He made sure not to show it in the way he walked knowing Piper was
watching him. They all got in and Piper snuggled up against Leo as Prue drove
them home.
***********************************
“HAHAHAAHAH everything is
falling into place.” The same demon as before laughed.
Prue, Piper, and Leo
gathered looking through the book of shadows in the attic.
“So do you know of any
demons that cause you to get sick?” Prue asked.
“There are a lot of
different species of demons/warlocks that pray on a humans health. It’s going
to be hard to pin point the right one if it even was supernatural.” Leo
explained.
“Maybe it was just a
bug.” Piper commented looking through the pages of the book.
“That still doesn’t
explain why Leo was weak after it. I mean he was ok after he saved you from
dying last time. I’m getting a feeling it is something supernatural.” Prue
announced.
Piper whined after Prue said
this. She was still shaken up by today’s incidents. The only time Piper had
seen Leo that weak was when he was poison and that started to scare Piper. He
had died that day and she didn’t want to go through something like that again.
Piper took her eyes off the book and took a quick glance at Leo. He seemed
to be ok now but Piper
wasn’t convinced she had a feeling he wasn’t telling her the whole truth.
Leo sighed to himself as he felt Piper staring at him. He knew exactly what she
was thinking. His powers had grown a little, he could almost read peoples
thoughts when he wanted to or when they where strong. The fear in Piper’s mind
was very strong. He knew she was thinking about that day he died. That was the
only
time her thoughts rang out
so clearly that or the thought of her sisters getting hurt. Suddenly the words
on the page Leo was suppose to be looking over started spinning around. Leo
rubbed his eyes feeling light headed as more things spun around. He grabbed the
stand to the book trying to steady himself. After a few minutes his legs gave
way and he fell to the ground.
“Leo!” Piper exclaimed
fear striking her. She was quickly at his side.
***********************************
Meanwhile Phoebe sat in her
collage class dozing off a little. Normally she would be listening intently to
the professor but she felt a little tired.
“How long tell class
ends.” Phoebe muttered grabbing her purse to look for a watch. “Ugh this is
Pipers.” Phoebe said noticing that she had grabbed the wrong one.
“She is going to kill
me.” Suddenly her world turned black and white.
Phoebe saw Piper collapse at
P3 and Prue rushing to her side. Then she saw the blue
light to Leo orbing in. Leo
then knelt down and healed Piper. Phoebe gasped for breath, as she was brought
out of the premonition.
“Everything seemed to be
under control why would I have that premonition?” Phoebe
whispered to herself still
searching through Piper’s purse. Phoebe finally spotted a watch. “This
isn’t mine” Phoebe stated confused looking over the frame of it. It was
obviously made for a man then Pheebs remembered this wasn’t her pocketbook.
“Probably Leo’s.” She answered herself taking the watch. Suddenly she was
thrown into another premonition. This time Prue, Piper, and Leo where in the
attic. Leo
grabbed the stand to the
book of shadows then fell to the ground.
Phoebe was again brought out
of the premonition. After quickly catching her breath she made a quiet exact
threw the back. Pheebs rushed home in fear that something was wrong with her
family. She burst into the door seeing no one down stairs. Remembering her
premonition Phoebe ran upstairs to the attic. There she found Leo on the ground
and Piper and Prue by his side.
“Phoebe your home?” Prue
stated.
“He’s not?” Phoebe
asked fear building up as she saw the tears from Piper.
“No he just fainted.”
Prue explained. “Why are you
home so early?”
“I had two
premonitions.” Phoebe answered sitting next to Piper.
“What are we suppose to
do?” Piper asked frantic.
She held Leo’s head in her
lap and stroked his hair.
“There isn’t much we can
do Piper. We don’t know what’s wrong. Maybe he will know when he wakes
up.” Prue answered. “What where your premonitions of?” Prue asked turning
her attention to her youngest sister.
“You guys where at the
club and Piper fainted. Then you guys where here and Leo fainted.” Phoebe
sniffed.
“Maybe we should move him
to your bed. So he is a little more comfortable?” Phoebe asked.
“Yeah that’s a good
idea. Prue will you move him?”
Piper said standing up. Prue
just nodded as she lifted Leo up with her telekinesis. Soon the four of them
where in Piper’s room. Piper sat on the bed next to Leo; Phoebe was at the
door holding the book of shadows with Prue.
“Hun we are going to go
downstairs and look through the book of shadows just calls us if you need us.”
Prue said giving her sister a kiss on the forehead.
“Don’t worry we will
find out what is wrong.” Prue whispered so just Piper could hear. Piper gave a
small smile to her sisters as they left. Piper tangled her hands in Leo’s hair
again and let more tears fall.
“Please Leo don’t leave
me I love you.” Leo’s eyes flicker open and he stared up at his crying love.
He quickly whipped away her
tears and pulled her close to him.
“Don’t worry Piper.”
He whispered into her ear.
She leaned her head into his
chest and wrapped her arms around him. Piper listened to his heartbeat but was
alarmed to find it wasn’t beating normally. She had spent many nights just
listening to that sound and she knew how it sounded by heart. She also noticed
Leo was hot and clammy just like she was this morning.
“Oh Leo do you know
what’s wrong with you?” Piper sniffed.
“I’m sure you guys will
find out you always do.”
“What if”
“No what if’s you have
to think positive.” Leo cut her off.
“Leo I love you.”
“I love you to.”
“Hey wait what’s that
spell? I’ll just switch our powers and heal you.” Piper said.
“No Piper. You’ll just
get it. When I healed you I got whatever you had.” He didn’t want to tell
her this knowing she would blame herself. But there was no choice or she would
just get sick again.
“So this is my fault.”
Piper answered.
“No Piper you didn’t
make yourself sick then give it to me. It’s some demons fault don’t blame
yourself.”
“Oh Leo what are we going
to do?” Piper laid her head on his chest again trying to think of a plan.
Meanwhile Phoebe and Prue
where searching through the book of shadows. Finding absolutely nothing.
“Ugh why can’t we find
something?” Prue said in frustration.
“Be patient.” Phoebe answered.
Suddenly blue and white orbs
appeared. In a few seconds a girl stood in front of Phoebe and Prue.
“I know what’s wrong
with Leo.” The girl said.
“Julie?” Phoebe
questioned remembering this whitelighter help them out before.
“Oh I guess Piper and Leo
never really explained anything about me.” Julie stated seeing the confused
looks on the sister’s faces.
“There will be plenty of
time for explanations later. Right now I have to talk to Leo.” Julie said
heading upstairs.
Phoebe and Prue followed the
whitelighter upstairs. They entered the room to find Piper cuddled up next to
Leo with her hands tightly holding him. Leo was sweating and didn’t look like
he was in good shape. Piper lifted her head when she heard footsteps
coming.
“Julie what are you doing
here?” Piper whispered knowing Leo had drifted off.
“I need to talk to Leo. I
might know how to fix this but I have to talk to Leo alone.” Julie explained.
Piper really didn’t want
to leave Leo’s side. She looked back to the bed then to Julie. She sighed and
walked to the door.
“Anything to make him
better.” She then shut the door leaving Julie and Leo alone. Leo had opened
his eyes when Piper left. He was dead tired but he knew he had
to stay awake to hear what
his sister had to say.
“Leo.” Julie sighed
giving her brother a hug.
He was getting weaker and
weaker by the moment and hugging his sister was challenge.
“Remember the demon that
we fought? The day you came to me as a whitelighter the
day I died.” Julie asked
pausing to see if Leo remembered.
He nodded his head not
speaking. It hurt when he did any extra movements or activities including
speaking. In just the last few minutes he had gotten terrible worse. Whatever I
have is moving fast and I don’t have a lot of time left Leo thought to
himself. He turned his attention back to Julie.
“Ok well it turns out I
didn’t vanquish him that day. I just banished him somewhere. He made Piper
sick and you healed her. Remember he can use your powers
against you. By using your
powers on his powers he can use his powers of making people sick on you. The
magical disease that was in Piper was transmitted to
you when you healed her. The
only way to vanquish him is by saying this spell. The only problem is three
people have to say it and they all have had to die by
this demon.” Julie
explained.
“So… what ex exactly
are….. you planning?” Leo asked.
“Alright we’ll let it
kill you then I will heal you like you did to Piper when she was in the
hospital. Then I’ll transmit the disease to Piper. Once it does its thing I
will.”
“No.” Leo said sternly.
“But Leo it’s the only
way to kill this thing.”
“I’m….. not going to
gamble…… with Piper’s life like that. Last time we went up ag against
him…… you died. I don’t want you….. to even tell Piper this plan. I
don’t want them going….. after him.”
“But Leo the only way to
get rid of this disease is to kill the demon. If we don’t then you will
die.”
“I know.”
“Leo I don’t want to
lose you again.” A single tear dripped down Julie’s eye as she said this.
“You won’t as long as
you love me.”
“How will I be able to be
a whitelighter while your gone it it just wouldn’t be right. I wouldn’t be
able to get through this again. Leo I’m not going to let you die.” Julie
sobbed feeling her heart break.
“Julie you are so strong.
You…… will get through this again…… Like before I don’t want…. you
to stop helping others just just because I am gone.”
“Oh god.”
“Promise me you won’t
tell them.” They sat in silence for a while Julie didn’t want to promise
what her brother wanted. “Julie.”
“Ok I promise. I love
you.” She gave Leo a kiss on the cheek tears flowed down her cheeks.
She quickly whipped them
away and exited the room. Julie noticed that the Halliwell sisters had moved
from the hallway into Piper’s bedroom. Piper was on the bed holding her pillow
close to her. Prue and Phoebe where next to her talking.
“Can I come in?” Julie
asked knowing the three did not notice her at the door.
“You said you might know
how to cure him. I’ll do anything.” Piper exclaimed seeing Julie at the
doorway.
Julie came into the room and
sat on the edge of the bed. She looked into Piper’s eyes and knew she
couldn’t lie to her.
“Sorry Leo.” She
muttered under her breath.
“What?” Prue asked
knowing non of the sisters had heard what she said.
Julie took a deep breath.
“Ok there is only one way
to kill the demon that is causing Leo to be sick. It’s risky and dangerous.
First we have to let Leo die.”
“What!” Piper yelled in
fear.
“Let her finish Piper.”
Phoebe said putting her arm around Piper.
“I’ll go to where he
healed you when you where sick and heal him.” Julie went on.
“Then you will have the
disease.” Piper commented remember what Leo had said.
“I know you see the only
way to kill him is to have three people who had died by him say this spell.”
“I don’t understand that
would only make one dead by him.” Piper questioned.
“Actually two. He is the
demon that killed me.”
“I thought you vanquished
him.”
“I thought I did to but I
only banished him.”
“So that’s still only
two who would be the third?”
“One of you three. I would
need to transmit the disease to one of you and let you die. Then save you then
we could say the spell and the guy will be dead.”
“That’s the only way?”
Prue asked not liking the sound of this. It was putting two people she loved in
a dangerous position.
“The only way.” Julie
repeated.
“Then I’ll do it.”
Piper said getting off the bed.
“No!” Prue said sternly.
“I’m not letting you but yourself in danger like that.”
“Prue it’s the only way.
I’m not going to stand by and let Leo die. Not when I can do something about
it.” Piper answer back just as sternly.
“I’m not suggesting
letting Leo die. I’ll do it.” Prue announced.
“No Prue. I have to be the
one who does this. If this was Andy instead of Leo you would want to be the one
to help him.” Piper answered knowing that the comment
would bring up emotions.
Prue thought for a few
moments not knowing what to say. Piper was right but
she didn’t want to let her
do this. But Prue didn’t have much of a choice if Piper wanted to do this
Piper would.
Prue sighed. “Alright.”
She finally gave in.
“It won’t take long for
Piper to die. The disease won’t start over it will go right from where it let
off. Plus you are a mortal so it will kill you faster.” Julie explained.
“Well that makes me feel
better.” Phoebe mumbled.
“I’m going to go check
on Leo.” Piper announced leaving the room to go into her own. She walked in
and found him asleep again. He almost looked dead if it wasn’t for his raspy
breaths. Piper felt tears fall from her eyes.
“This better work.” She
muttered to herself sitting on the floor next to the bed.
She clasped his hand in hers
it was limp. She was losing him Piper knew it wouldn’t be long now. Piper
again put her head is his lap as she did the last time Leo had died.
Prue stood at the door of
Piper’s room staring at her younger sister. Piper hadn’t seen her there yet.
Prue felt sorry for her younger sister no one should have to go throw this. Once
was enough but not twice. Prue remember when Andy had died she remembered how
much it hurt so she could relate to what Piper was going
through. I just hope
everything goes smoothly Prue thought to herself. She quietly went back to where
Phoebe and Julie where talking.
“How is she?” Phoebe
asked noticing her sister had returned.
“How do you think?” Prue
commented sitting next to the two girls.
“I am going to go see how
much time I have.” Julie announced going to the doorway where Prue had just
been.
Leo’s aura was turning black his presence was getting ready
to leave. Julie knew it was time to go. She went back to the two girls.
“Its time.” She replied.
“Bring Leo back to us.”
Phoebe whispered.
Julie nodded and orbed out.
“Come on I have a feeling
Piper is going to need us.” Phoebe said going to her older
sister.
Piper lifted her head
noticing there was a slight change on Leo. His breaths were getting less and
less. Piper felt more tears stream as she realized he was
leaving.
“Leo I love you please
come back to me soon.” She sobbed as he took his last breaths.
“Piper honey.” Prue said
walking over to her sister and giving her a hug.
Piper sobbed hard into Prue.
Phoebe come up to the two girls and wrapped her arms
around both of them.
Meanwhile Leo’s spirit let
his body and headed for the heavens. Soon he was in the same golden place that
he had saved Piper. Julie stood in front of him.
“We don’t have much time
take my hands.” Julie commanded.
“But the disease.” Leo
insisted.
“Don’t worry I know how
to destroy this thing. Just take my hands before time runs out.” Leo hesitated
then took her hands at the thought of never seeing Piper again. The light from
Julie’s hands become blinding and Leo felt himself falling back into his
body.
After a second he gasped for
breath. Piper noticed and quickly got out from underneath her sisters.
“Leo!” She cried hugging
him. Color returned to his face and he hugged her back.
“Piper.” He whispered.
“Oh god I never want to go
through that again.” Piper sobbed holding on to Leo as if he was going to
disappear.
Suddenly Julie orbed into
the room. She fell back into the chair behind her.
“Wow that takes a lot out
of you.” Julie gasped. “Umm Piper we need to talk.”
“Ok.” Piper reluctantly
let go on Leo and headed outside the room with Julie.
Phoebe bounced one Leo
giving him a hug.
“Air Pheebs.” Leo
gasped. Prue just laughed.
Outside the room Julie and
Piper started to talk.
“Ok its time for phase to.
I have to get this out of my body before I start to lose my powers.” Julie
explained.
Piper took a deep breath.
“Ok I’m ready.”
“We should get you into a
bed. Remember it won’t start over. It won’t take long for it to take over
you.”
“Ok I’ll go into
Prue’s room and lie down.” Julie followed Piper into Prue’s room. She
quickly laid down.
“Don’t worry I won’t
let you die.” Julie commented.
“I’m not I trust you.”
Piper answered. “Besides you know Leo will kill you if you let me die.”
Piper joked but it didn’t come out the way it was suppose to.
“Your gonna have to cut
yourself or something.” Julie told Piper remembering she had to heal her.
“K.” Piper broke the
vase next to her and took a little piece of it.
She then ran the sharp end
along her skin. She whined as it started to bleed. Julie
then put her hands over the
cut. Her hands glowed gold as she healed she felt the disease leaving her body.
Piper could feel herself
becoming more and more weak. After Julie was finally done healing her Piper
passed out. Julie noticed black spots in her aura.
“Won’t be long now.”
Meanwhile Leo lay in
Piper’s room feeling better but still weak. He suddenly felt a burst of power
being used but pushed it out of his mind. At least Prue and Phoebe went down
stairs they where making him get some rest. He really wanted to see Piper, but
they wouldn’t let him move. Where was she anyways he thought? Suddenly he
remembered Julie’s plan to save him and realized what was going on.
“Dam it if Julie healed me
then she must be doing that stupid plan. And after she promised me she
wouldn’t.”
Leo hissed to himself. He
quickly jumped out of bed but dizziness took over and he fell back down. He
again attempted to get up taking it a little slower this time. He made it to the
door and looked down both ways. He found that the halls where empty so Phoebe
and Prue couldn’t stop him. He made his way to Phoebe’s room but there was
no sign of anyone. He then rushed to Prue’s room and saw what he had feared.
“Julie I told you not to
do this!” He yelled falling into a chair next to Piper’s bed.
He slipped her clammy hand
into his and stared at his sister.
“I’m sorry but you where
going to die. And and Piper she well she asked me if there was anything she
could do and I I just couldn’t lie to her.” Julie replied feeling tears well
up in her eyes.
“I can’t believe you did
this.” He whispered taking his attention off Julie and on to Piper.
Piper was in very bad shape.
Blackness covered almost all her aura and she was burning up. She only had a few
more minutes left.
“I’m so sorry. I just
didn’t want to lose you. Oh god Leo what have I done.” Julie broke down and
cried.
Usually Julie was strong and
didn’t let herself get emotional but when her family was mad at her it got her
upset. Leo knew she wouldn’t be able to heal Piper if she thought he was mad
at her. He kissed Piper’s hand then went over to his sister.
“Hey I’m sorry for
yelling at you I just don’t want to lose her. But I trust you you’re a great
whitelighter. One of the best I know and if anyone can bring her
back you can. So just
don’t let her go.” Leo hugged Julie reassuring her of her abilities.
“I won’t let you
down.” Julie let go of Leo knowing Piper needed him.
He went back to her side and
caressed her face. Tears fell down his cheeks as he
noticed she was in her last
minutes of life. Prue and Phoebe cried in the doorway knowing their sister was
going to die soon. Piper’s heart stopped and her spirit started to leave her
body. Her aura was fading quickly. Julie orbed out knowing that it was time to
save Piper.
More tears clouded Leo’s
vision as Piper stopped breathing. He hugged her body waiting for life to return
to her. Phoebe and Prue hugged Leo as he hugged Piper. Not one of then had a dry
eye.
Julie once again stood in
the lighted room. Piper suddenly appeared in front of her.
“Take my hands.” Julie
instructed knowing Piper already knew what was going on. Piper quickly took
Julie’s hand and they started to glow. Julie suddenly felt weak and dizzy.
I’m to weak to heal her Julie thought franticly.
Leo back on earth heard
Julie’s desperate call. He quickly slipped out of the Halliwells arms.
“I have to help her she is
to weak.” He announced getting ready to orb.
“But you can’t your
still not better. I mean after your where poison you couldn’t even get your
powers back.” Phoebe exclaimed getting frightened.
“Doesn’t matter.” Leo
then turned into blue orbs.
He stayed that way for a few
seconds having trouble orbing. He finally was able to teleport to the lighted
room. Their Julie and Piper stood engulfed by light. He put his hands on top of
Julie’s and she opened her eyes to see her brother.
“Leo.”
“We can do this
together.” Without another word blinding light filled the room. Then it
engulfed the three forms in the room.
The two remaining sisters
stood staring at their sister’s lifeless body hoping Leo and Julie could do
it. Suddenly Piper gasped for breath and some color returned to her face. Prue
and Phoebe tackled the middle sister as soon as they saw her alive.
“Oh god Piper don’t ever
scare us like that again.” Phoebe sighed squeezing Piper as she hugged her.
“You have no idea how
scared we where.” Prue commented also holding her sister tightly.
Piper smiled glad to be
home. Julie and Leo orbed in and fell back on to chairs exhausted. They both
where pale and sick from all the healing done today. Piper saw Leo and jumped
out of bed into his arms.
“Oh Leo I love you.” She
whispered as they kissed.
“I love you to.” Leo
answered holding on to his love tightly.
“What about the demon we
have to get him quickly before you guys are to weak to fight him.” Prue
interrupted.
“Your right. Since we both
healed Piper the disease was transmitted into both of us. The good news being it
won’t be able to kill us. It will just make us incredible ill.” Julie
explained.
“Well we can’t take any
chances I’m not letting ether of you die. We have to get this thing before you
guys are completely whipped out.” Piper demanded pulling Leo out of the chair.
He was already exhausted but
didn’t argue he knew it had to be done. Piper pulled
one of Leo’s arms over her
shoulder and let him lean on her.
“What do we have to do?”
Leo asked looking towards Julie.
“Just say this spell he
will appear and as we keep saying this he should die.” Julie explained handing
Leo a spell. He showed it to
Piper and after a few minutes they held hands and started chanted. Smoke arouse
from the ground as they chanted the spell. A cloudy form appeared revealing the
demon who had done so much damage.
“What the hell your
suppose to be dead.” The demon exclaimed pointing to Leo and Julie.
“I could say the same
thing about you.” Leo replied back then started up the spell again.
Suddenly more smoke crowded
around the demon and he felt himself melting. He screamed as his body
disenagrate into dust.
“We did it.” Julie
sighed sitting down.
“Yes we did.” Piper
replied.
“Thank god that’s
over.” Phoebe commented.
“How do you feel?” Piper
asked Leo wrapping her arms more tightly around him.
He had lifted some of his
weight of her, which was a pretty good sign.
“I feel better still a
little tired though.” Leo answered stroking her hair.
“Leo I think I’m gonna
head home.” Julie replied getting up.
“Are you sure your strong
enough?” Leo questioned.
“Yeah I’m tired I’m
gonna go home and rest. Take care come by later we need to talk.” Julie said
hugging her brother.
“Ok I will. Oh and Julie
thanks for disobeying me, but don’t do it to often.” Leo joked letting go of
Julie.
“Alright see yeah guys
later. Piper, Prue, Phoebe, bye.” Julie replied orbing out.
“Well Piper Leo its so
good to have you guys back but I think we will let you two have some time to
your self.” Prue announced pulling Phoebe out of the room.
“Alright.” Piper replied
as Prue shut the door. Piper and Leo both sat down on the bed with their arms
around each other.
“I’m so glad your ok.”
Leo sighed.
“I know I owe Julie so
much if it wasn’t for her I don’t know what I would have done.” Piper said
running her hands through Leo’s hair.
“Julie’s a good person.
Doesn’t listen well but a good person.”
“You shouldn’t have told
her not to tell me.”
“I didn’t want you to go
through with her plan. It was dangerous and I knew it wouldn’t matter to
you.”
“Still.”
“Enough about that lets
just be happy we got through it.”
“You right.” Piper
whispered in his ear.
Her breath tickled his neck
and he laid down. Piper leaned her head on his chest and drifted off to sleep.
Leo stayed up a little longer to gaze at Piper’s beautiful features. Soon he
couldn’t keep his eyes open any longer and he to fell fast asleep in the arms
of the women he loves.
