victor really wasn’t sure how he ended up in a place called mystic falls. he’d never even heard of it. how can he find anything around here? he’s been wandering around for a good hour, maybe more until he actually finds someone. “excuse me?” he asked. “can you tell me where to get a drink around here? i could really use one.” 

   “Oh, uh, that would be the Grill.” Piper replies with a small laugh -- because she herself had been in search of a drink herself. “If you wanna follow me I just happen to be going there too.”

“ I just meant try no to hurt yourself. ” He says and he tries his D A M N E D E S T to stop the sadness from flowing through him and showing on his face. When she freezes the W O M A N next to them and he smiles sadly. “ Look we can figure out a way to G E T them back, Piper. “ It’s a promise he’ll keep to herself and H I M S E L F. “ It’s going to be O K A Y, and I know it might not seem like it R I G H T now. “ He shakes his head. “ They’re not going to be like this forever, it’ll be fine, I promise. “  

   It made her choke out a laugh. Maybe he didn’t know her as well as he said he did. Being left alone with her thoughts had left her thinking of everything and feeling it too. “The son who hates me and the son who is afraid I’m going to shatter are trying everything to do that, and I’m trying not to worry about it but it’s the only thing I can do. And you know the sucky part of it all? I have kids. Kids that are my babies, and no matter how hard I try I look at them and they look at me, and it’s like they’re not my babies at all. And you... I look at you and want nothing but a hug because I think I need a hug right now before I blow something else up.”

if it WASN’T obvious then, then it is NOW      the g r i e f she kept hidden inside, the tears she held in, were now coming undone in the worst possible way. W O R S E than the pain that came with losing her sister, WORSE than the pain that came with living another day without her sister, and for her to come back like this, COMING TO TERMS she would never see her sister again, ten years like an eternity to hold her breath, too hold everything she worked so hard to keep buried, to come back to the s u r f a c e and haunt her all over again. piper wrapped her arms around phoebe and she is weeping uncontrollably, nothing could break her h e a r t more then what piper said next between the sobs, reality smacked her right in the face. she should’ve known better, she remembered everything, and each passing minute a reminder of what a curse it is to have too feel. her heart plummeted in her c h e s t, the halliwell sister found it harder to BREATHE, what she was afraid of happening, HAPPENED, feeling w e a k, her knees gave way, she wasn’t sure if piper is strong enough to keep them standing. “PI-PE-RR-” phoebe’s only emotion and word that managed to wail through her. 

   “It’s... It’s okay.” Piper told her as she tried to comfort her despite falling on her ass trying. Still she managed to keep the woman in her arms -- a sense of being a mother stopping her from dropping her no matter how odd she felt. “I’m going to get someone to heal you, okay? You’ll feel better and we can talk.” She thought it was because of the attack, not because of her lack of memory or her death. “I’ve got you.”

“P i p e r.” Her little sisters name was said in such a sad tone, she felt a w f u l and somehow responsible even though she had been dead herself. “Kids.. wow. I am not s u r p r i s e d, you and Leo always wanted them.” It was her way to t r y to help her remember even a small something. “When did you come back, can you remember that?” The elder Halliwell asked, the true c o n c e r n etched in her features. “We w i l l figure this out, alright?”

   Her eyes met the other’s and for a moment she’s calm again. It’s hard to explain but the way the woman had said Piper was enough to make her breathe. “I-I... I wanted kids?” With Leo? That would certainly explain her need to mother everyone even without her memories. “Uh, two weeks ago maybe? I remember waking up in grass, and feeling this sort of warmth.” Why she was back she didn’t know. And she certainly didn’t want to admit she wished she had stayed dead. Maybe it would’ve been easier that way. “I hope so. I can’t go on like this.”

god fucking damn it. cole was going to kill the so called innocent and the bitch who tried to blow him up. when he looked up, his energy ball ready to strike, he found himself laughing because he should’ve known. he knew exactly who it was. ❝ go figure they’d bring you back to life too. i just can’t catch a break. how ya been piper-oo? dead definitely suited you. ❞

   Piper hadn’t set out to help innocents but the screams had caused her to jump right in and now she wondered if she’d regret that. “Who the hell are you?” she snapped at the demon, not hint of recognition or realization on her features.

phoebeshalliwll:

PHOEBE WISHED SHE BUMPED HER HEAD, she wouldn’t be seeing her dead sister and she wouldn’t feel like she was D Y I N G on the inside. perspective came back in full center, directing her eyes at her sister and best friend. pinching herself didn’t make this less real, solidifying this was no dream or nightmare. a whirl wind of emotions struck the brunette, contentment && guilt weighed phoebe down, the constant in her life. after piper passed, a part of her soul died as well, leaving her with nothing but her thoughts. regret, being one of them. protecting the innocents became first priority, loyalty until it got one or all of them killed ? after that day, phoebe didn’t understand the logic behind it, she lost another sister. the world on the back burner, the world didn’t need phoebe halliwell and she didn’t need the world, after all how has life treated her, how did the elders treat her ? chewed her up and spat her out, it’s selfish to say she might as well have died that day. it’s her sister’s presence that has her balanced onto her feet, “pipes!” emitting a loud shriek, phoebe used all her will power not to topple and ran into her sister’s frame, embracing her tightly. at this point, she could use some hope in the world, faith this is actually her sister and not some demon or thing trying to trick her. 

   She found herself nearly falling backwards as she is caught wrapped up in the woman’s hug. Pipes! Piper. Another person that knew her she was guessing but Piper didn’t know her, at least now it seemed. Even though her mind didn’t remember the woman Piper seemed to feel something in her embrace. Some sort of emotion that came with being hugged by someone you cared so much about. She didn’t understand it even as her hands came up to the woman’s back to give her some sort of embrace, her eyes beginning to fill with tears as she sobbed out, “I don’t know who you are.” It hurt her. So many seemed so sad that she was there and she couldn’t remember them. It made her feel worse because of the emotion the woman seemed to have for her. “I’m sorry but I just don’t.”

Leo’s cuirous while he watches her reaction. “ Take it E A S Y Piper.” He moves to put his hands out but he D O E S N ‘ T touch her, he knows if she’s straining to R E M E B E R that it must be P A I N F U L and he doesn’t want to make her feel worse than she is. “ A Glamour and yes, I am Leo.” He sighs. “ You don’t remember me ?” He isn’t sure W H Y that surprises him. It does, and not only does it surprise him but it H U R T S his wife doesn’t remember him. “ Does that M E A N you don’t remember the kids ? “ 

   She isn’t sure but her first instinctive response is to say, “Take it easy?!” with something snappy at the end. But she doesn’t and instead sighs and takes a deep breath. “It’s far from easy.” People have been telling her tales of her life and the things she’s done, and the people she should know but even with the tiniest emotions coming to her that’s all it is. Tiny emotions that aren’t helpful in the slightest. Piper blinks before moving a hand to freeze the woman that had been beside her -- and much to her surprise, she managed not to blow her up. “I don’t remember you,” she replies with frustration now, “I don’t remember the kids and it breaks my heart. They’re so sad and you...” He was starting to give her look they had given her. “I don’t know how to fix it. Every time I try I fail. Wyatt hates me, Leo, and I hate myself because I can’t fix it. I can’t make this right.” Piper Halliwell; a Charmed One, a wife, a mother and a sister, was nothing if she couldn’t remember who she was.

Leo’s stares at her, when she asks if he’s a  F R I E N D of their children he shakes his head. He has to remember that he doesn’t have his O W N face, but there’s something D I F F E R E N T about this. “ No. I’m their father “ He tells her. There’s not even a H I N T of recognition on her face and he S I G H S. “ I used a G L A M O U R on myself. This isn’t my face. “ He says. “ Leo, it’s me, Leo.” He tries. He can feel this U N F A M I L I A R feeling telling him something is W R O N G. “ You know me, Piper. I’m your H U S B A N D. “

   When he says that he’s their father she can’t help but stare. If he was their father than that meant... That meant ! ! The pain was back in her head as she tried to make sense of his words. The more she tried the more the pain became almost unbearable and she was left retreating from it. “A glamour?” Piper remembered someone mentioning that but she still doesn’t understand. Why would he hide his face like that? “L e o ? ?” She knows his name is supposed to mean something to her but all she feels is WARMTH. That was odd. “I’m sorry but I don’t. I don’t remember you either.” And now she’s frustrated again, she can’t remember him and she knows she’s supposed to. But what if he’s angry at her too? She wasn’t sure her heart could take that, knowing that there was another person out there angry with her for dying. “I’m sorry.”

>> @ofdesolations << 

Leo has only S E E N his and Piper’s son C H R I S so far since being here. The thought of Piper brings an ache to his chest and he sighs. He misses her, but he knows he’s done his mourning the glamour is the whole point of that T O O only his kids would know that it was him. Or he hopes at L E A S T. It’s when he H E A R S the voice that he looks up, eyes round and wide. “ Piper ? “ His voice a whisper within the wind and barely even something that can be heard.

   She tries to keep a S M I L E on her face despite knowing that she has three children, sisters, and that she had been dead -- and one of those kids seemed to hate her. For dying? Maybe? What else could there be? It’s so hard and she’s so sad. Piper was trying to remember who she was and what she had been forced to leave behind when she died but absolutely nothing came to mind. So instead she focused on learning her powers and trying to be helpful. Could she be helpful? Not really, no, not when her sons were on opposing sides. The conversation she was having with someone trying to help her was cut short when she heard the name, her name, and she turned to look at the voice. “Hi! Are you a friend of Wyatt, Chris or Melinda?” came her question, no hint of recognition crossing her features especially because he was glamoured into someone she had definitely never seen before, memories or not.

There is comfort in his heart when his mom takes his hand after what appears to be some slight hesitation on her part. The situation that they’re in isn’t ideal but it’s the closest thing he’s had to having his mom again and he really needs her. Not because of the war or his impending death at the hands of Arcadus, but because a guy needs his mom—especially after losing her as a child. He hears his mom’s question and it sort of catches him off guard because what she wants to know could literally be anything in the world, but still he swallows a bit. “Yeah, mom, what do you want to know?”

   “Was...” No, that wasn’t what she wanted to start her question out with. “Am...” No, that wasn’t it either. Her mind struggled with the possible word choices. Screw it. “I’m trying to remember but every time I try to I get this excruciatingly painful sound in my head like,” Even trying to make the sound made her grate her teeth instinctively. “There’s just nothing and, I uh, I guess I want to know if I was-am an okay mother. You looked at me so sad, it broke my heart.”

phoebeshalliwll:

the middle halliwell sister is still C A T C H I N G her breath, she thought she could handle those demons and on other days she might’ve been able too, but clearly she underestimated them, although her powers are passive, it has been a while since martial arts had been used in action. under normal circumstances, this would’ve been another job her and her sisters would’ve taken care of and vanquished them within a millisecond but there was nothing normal about them, about this, about this new world. another reminder why everything sucks, but getting up out of bed to blow off some steam does have it’s ADVANTAGES. chocolate brown eyes were still recovering from the blow, blurry vision needing a moment to come back into focus, and that voice is m u s i c to phoebe’s ears, even if she thought she died and went to heaven, ( heaven ? you must be kidding, there is a nice cozy reserved spot in hell for her ), they must have hit her over the head OR killed her, neither of those were likely but bargaining is all she can muster right now. finally her mouth parts in disbelief. “Am I dead ?” a single breath drawled.

   Piper blinked in slight confusion before giving another brilliant smile. “Nope! From what I’ve heard, I’ve been dead and it isn’t all that fun.” Not in the slightest. “I’ve got one son who thinks I’m going to shatter, a daughter who won’t come near me and I think the other son hates me... I don’t think you want to be dead. I don’t recommend it.” It was so easy to rant to a not stranger. When it came to her kids she couldn’t very well admit that she sort of wished she would’ve stayed dead. Maybe then Wyatt wouldn’t hate her so damn much for whatever it was she had done to him. Piper didn’t understand him but she also understood that without her memory she might as well be dead still. “I think you bumped your head. I might have someone who can help you. Do you think you can stand up?”

the last thing she REMEMBERED is walking down an alley way, in the wrong place at the wrong time, and d e m o n s quite literally trying to kill her. “Jeez, at least take me out to dinner first.” Phoebe taunted them every passing minute. why is she always put in these SITUATIONS ? ( anyway ) … there were three of them so she was unfortunately out numbered but it didn’t slow the MIDDLE child down, no, why would it ? she still kicked ASS and thought to be doing a pretty darn good job, until one of ‘em evil creepers managed to INJURE her with a fireball, she fell back on the cement, underestimating their strength. She is about to fight back when another one of them threw a kick, K N O C K I N G the breath right out of her. PHOEBE didn’t have a clue what was going on because she was recovering from the blow, hearing the screams of the men, the sweet sound of explosion, the sound is echoed into her ears, like a tune or melody. she’s yet to look at her savior, only knowing of one other person who is capable of blowing demons up. 

   It seemed to come so naturally for her that she hadn’t stopped until she managed to blow the last demon up. No time for breaths, Piper thought, as she found herself racing to make sure the woman was okay. It looked as if she had been dealt another and Piper knew she’d need help... Other than what she had been able to give now. “Are you okay there?” she asked as she found the woman’s hands and looked her over. Giving a soft and gentle smile, she tried to appear... Friendly? Calm? Okay with the fact that she could do such a thing as blow up demons and not bat an eye? “Please tell me you’re okay.”

[ofdesolations]

@phoebeshalliwll

   She wasn’t the best person to be fighting at the moment but considering she had heard the commotion Piper had found herself racing towards it. Even without her memory she found herself racing toward danger rather than away. She didn’t understand it and she didn’t have time to try to even though every thought in her head screamed at her. Her hands aiming at what looked to be demons trying to what, kill, the woman? Chris had told him her powers only worked on evil so she hoped to hell that the beings she began blowing up really were evil. Her powers were still shaky but god she tried her damnest not to let the other get hurt.

“There is no u n i v e r s e in which i can kill you whilst you look like this, and memories or not, knowing that you are my mother should have told you that.” There was less emotion than most would, probably less than Chris and Melinda had but he couldn’t let himself get attached, in the off chance that she wasn’t really Piper and the pain of losing her was there all over again. “A l r i g h t.” Wyatt was skeptic to say the least, but his large hands hold out in the air to her. 

   But she wasn’t his mother. He had told her that himself. An impostor with her face. Even if she happened to truly be there were no memories or recognition. It was as if she wasn’t anyways. There was nothing and it made her head hurt as she tried to fight through it. Taking a deep breath, Piper reached out for the other’s hands and took them in her own. In doing so she noticed a tattoo on a wrist she hadn’t noticed before. Her mind had been elsewhere. Her eyes shut and she waited a moment as if thinking of what spell to use, or to create, because she hadn’t thought he would allow her to get that far. After a few moments of silence she began to speak, “Allow this boy,” AHA! “to look inside and see I lack what makes me,” Uhh, “me.”

   As soon as she spoke the last word she felt a whooosh as if she were being sucked from the Earth where she stood and the next thing she knew it was as if she were living the moment she woke up again. Her eyes hazy as they tried to adjust to the light from the sun, a dull and aching pain filling her mind as she struggled with what was happening. What was happening? As she tried to remember that dull and aching pain began to radiate into excruciating pain that made her ears ring and her eyes close. The more she tried to fight it, the more the pain and darkness took a hold of her and she struggled for air. N O T H I N G. It was nothing. An empty and barren waste land of what had been her mind. Anything of her previous life was gone.

   Then there was the struggle of trying to find out where she was. Her mind empty yet her heart had been telling her that she needed to find something or someone. P.J., Chris, Melinda all flashed into her mind and they were the only clues that she had of to who she was. That longing on Chris’ face and the tears Melinda had cried when she saw them again filling her with a sadness that made her stomach ill. The struggle of trying to control her ability of making things explode, the frustration of not being able to quite control them yet. 

   The emptiness washed over her once more and she found eyes opening quickly and herself releasing Wyatt’s hands and pushing him away as she needed her hands to somehow control and ease the pain that had washed over her once more.
