AN: Thanks for all those
who hung in there. I�ve been stuck a bit lately and with my other obligations�.
Well you get the idea.

Paige ran her hands through her hair frustration. For once
in their lives couldn�t they stay out of trouble? It seemed every time they did
something good they got slapped in the face. Now the powers that be were adding
to list with their intervention. She shook her head. �I can�t believe this,�
she muttered. Leo placed a comforting hand on hers and Phoebe�s shoulder. It
was a good thing Piper wasn�t here to hear this, she would go ballistic. How
could the Cleaners frame Darryl for murder to cover ups their magical mistake? Ridiculous,
that�s what it was.

Next to Paige, Phoebe fumed as her mind starting working on
a plan to get out of their latest occupational hazard. She was pissed on many
levels. The Cleaners had no right to interfere. They told them before that they
cleaned up their own messes. To pick on Darryl�.that made her blood boil. She
was so angry that she may have compounded the situation by asking that they plead
their case to the council. Now they were on trial in front of two elders and
two demons with Barbas as prosecutor of all beings. She hated him so much and
she knew that the demon had something to do with this mess. They thought this
scheme was a get out of jail free card for Barbas,
but they could not prove it. At least they had Gideon as council for them. He
had to be one of the wisest people she knew, for an elder anyway.

�We�ve been set up!� Phoebe spat standing to her feet. �I
know Barbas is involved.�

A grin formed on his pale features as he condescendingly
tented his hands in his usual way. �And how pray tell did I �set you up� from
the purgatory that you and your sisters condemned me to? I suppose I filmed you
doing magic too.� He looked towards the council. �This is what I am talking
about. They do not even own up to their mistakes; blatant disregard for
authority.�

�We can prove it,� Paige interjected. One of the council
members raised an eyebrow.

�What Paige means we request time to gather the evidence for
out case,� Gideon translated. He glared at the two of them. They were reckless.

�This is just another means of stalling in attempt to dazzle
and awe the Council with acts of sycophant behavior.�

�Go to hell, Barbas.�

�After I win this,� he smirked.

�We will allow the Charmed Ones the time to gather
evidence,� one of the elder council members replied. �However to keep them
under the time constraints, we will advance��

Leo looked towards Chris. �Say free now,� he said sternly.
Chris raised an eyebrow in near defiance until he felt Leo�s intensity. It told
him no time for questions, he would bitch later. �Free.� Right on cue black
orbs streamed down in front of them.

��time one year. You have until midnight to produce this
evidence you implied that you have or the mortal will die. We will reconvene
then.� The four Council members disappeared.

�What the hell?� Phoebe sighed. She looked toward Gideon.
�Get them back here, Gideon.�

�Making demands now are we?� Barbas taunted. �The arrogance
never stops.�

Paige stood to her feet. She was about to jumped over the
table and attacked the demon when Gideon motioned for her to remain calm. �Save
energy. In a way he is right. We have pushed our luck enough as it is.�

The red-head sat down with a sigh then turned to Leo and
Chris. Her eyes widened. �When did you get here?� she asked Pandora, �and why
does Leo have his arms around you?� Pandora blinked several times finding
herself being held around the waist. Her faced flamed. Chris was in front of
her trying to look unfazed. �Your spell. Chris must have said the word.�

Two sets of brown eyes glared at green ones. �Don�t look at
me Leo told me to.�

Leo let go Pandora. �I realized what the council was about
to do and I didn�t want her caught in the spell.�

�What about Piper?�

�She will be safe at Magic School,�
he replied.

�What�s going on?� Pandora asked.

�I would like to know the same thing,� Gideon interrupted.
It was taking all his poise not to strike to darklighter down. There was
something about her that irked him besides being his natural enemy. �You are
aware this�is a darklighter.�

�She is clear,� Paige assured him.

�How can this be?� he asked shaking his head in disbelief.

�It�s a long story just trust us,� Phoebe replied. �Right now
we have to figure out��

�Care to introduce the latest member of your group?� Barbas
asked leaning back in his chair observing casually. This development was rather
interesting. �The company that we keep.�

Phoebe ignored him and whispered lowly. �I know he has to
have something to do with this.�

�Chris and I will go to the underworld and check out his
contacts,� Leo nodded. �Pandora will have to stay here. Her history is too
closely related and the spell might affect her.�

Garnet eyes widened. �You don�t��

�I know a lot more than you think thanks to your
whitelighter.�

�I have a whitelighter!?� she nearly yelled. Phoebe put her
arm around the tall girl to calm her down.

�Shoosh. We�ll grill later.� Chris and Leo orbed away.

�So we're just going to wait?� Paige slumped in her chair.

Gideon crossed his arms not taking his eyes off of Pandora. �Tine
flows much faster in the Council Chambers. It will be time before we know it. Now
would you care to explain your affiliations with this darklighter?�

�Don�t worry about me. Just pretend I�m not here.� Gideon
shot her a skeptical look but his attention was not what had her on edge. She
turned to Barbas. There was something familiar about him. Her head was becoming
foggy and confused. It was not too bad, just an extreme case of de ja vu. Irregardless her animosity towards him felt like he did
something to her though she never laid her eyes on him before today. �Do you
have a problem?� she glared at him.

�Just wondering what a pretty darklighter like yourself
would be doing with the Charmed Ones. Wondering your hopes, your dreams, your��
he held his hand palm ward to his face, �fears�.my my my
so many.�

�Back off,� Pandora growled then leaned on the back of the
table. No wonder the Charmed Ones hated his guts (other than the fact that he
killed Prue) he was so annoying as all get out. She turned towards Paige and
Phoebe. �I saw Piper before my orbs were routed this way. She is really
annoyed.�

�Annoyed is better than pissed,� Paige replied
sarcastically.

Phoebe rubbed her temples. �Hopefully Chris and Leo will
come up with something before Darryl��

Pandora stood up quickly. �Whoa. Whoa. What�s going on?�

�A cop, internal affairs, followed Darryl this morning while
he was helping us take care of a poltergeist and saw us do magic,� Phoebe
explained.

�And the Cleaners fixed it so that it looked like Darryl
shot and killed an unarmed man. Now he�s on death row,� she gestured to the
middle of the chamber to a viewing orb where Darryl sat with Sheila in a jail
cell.

�How much time has passed?�

�A year.�

Pandora moved to examine the scene. Sheila was alive and her
stomach was flat. Given what she knew about the future this did not bode well
for her existence. There had to be something that she could do.

�So are you going to tell me what you two talked about?�
Chris asked dangling the demon over the fiery chasm.

�Chris this not getting us anywhere.�

�On the contrary, I think this asshole knows something and
with the right,� he let his grip on the demon slip then tighten,
�motivation he�ll talk.�

�You wouldn�t,� the demon yelled out. �I didn�t harm an
innocent.�

�It�s not about what you did, but what we think you did,�
Chris replied.

�And we think that you helped Barbas escape,� Leo added. He
was met with silence. �I don�t know how much longer, he can hold on to you.�

The demon sighed. �He�d kill me.�

�And I won�t?� Chris was starting to lose his patience with
this demon. Already his voice was getting a dangerous edge to it.

The demon gulped and Leo observed the emotion that played on
Chris�s face. Why didn�t he notice this sadness about him before? �You were too busy mistrusting and tracking
him, not trying to understand.�

�I taught him to summon poltergeists. We were going to use
them to get out but he double crossed me.�

�Them?� Chris asked.

�As in more than one?� Leo asked.

�Yes. One for him and one for me.�

�The other one must have possessed Sheridan and that�s why she reopened Darryl�s
investigation and tailed him.�

�That�s not going to be enough,� Chris shook the dangling
demon.

�That�s all I know.�

�Chris, we have what we need, the rest we�ll handle
ourselves. I�m worried about this affecting the timeline, Pandora��

�How did you meet her whitelighter?�
has asked suddenly. Being out of the loop was eating away at him. He was
responsible for her not Leo. It was his problem.

�We�ll talk about it later.�

�No we won�t,� he snapped. His eyes suddenly widened as he
lost his grip and the demon fell. �Look what you made me do.�

Leo sighed, �We�ll talk about it after we find Sheridan.� The two of
them orbed away.

Darryl sat in his cell with his face in his hands. Sheila reluctantly
left to take care of their children. It was down to his final hour. Their
newborn would never know her father. He had only been allowed to see his baby
girl through plexi glass and through pictures. She was beautiful with curly
honey colored hair and light brown eyes. Her eyes almost had a reddish tint to
them which he thought was odd, but he never met Sheila�s parents so he could
not rule out her side of the family. All he knew was that she was about to go
through life without him to protect her world. If he ever got a second chance
things would be different. He would be different. Dariel would have her father
by her side to teach her about life.

�Why?� he leaned his head back in frustration.

�Darryl?�

Darryl leaned forward and moved towards the bars. Now he was
going insane during the last 45 minutes of his life. �Who�s there?�

Piper stepped from the shadows looking around expectantly
for guards. She held up her hands ready to explode the bars. �Stand back, I am
going to get you out of here. I don�t know what happened��

�No,� he shook his head. �I am not leaving through magical
means or breaking the law.�

�Darryl, come on. Something has happened. A year has passed
and I am still pregnant. There is something going on here. I am going to break
you out and then we�ll figure it out. Stand back.�

�If magic is behind this, it�s because I got involved where
I shouldn�t have. I�m done. I can�t do this anymore.�

�Do you want to die?�

�No, but the alternative is not much better. Becoming a
fugitive is going to hurt my family just as much. My newborn daughter is going
to think I am guilty. I just can�t.�

�Your daughter?� Piper�s eyes widened. She had no idea that
Sheila was pregnant.

�Go, Piper. I�m done and I don�t want you to get caught.�

Piper stepped back with a frown on her face. �I am not going
to let�� her sentence trailed as light surrounded her form and she disappeared.

�Good bye, Piper.� He sighed sitting back down. He heard
several sets of footsteps coming down the hall. Show time.

��you go,� Piper finished. Her brow wrinkled in confusion as
she stood behind her sisters. �Where the hell am I?�

�Piper?� Phoebe asked standing. She looked towards Gideon
and he sighed as the Council members reconvened.

�Time is up and the proof you claimed has not been presented
to us,� a demonic Council member replied. �Since this judgment concerns the
Charmed Ones, your sister has been brought here as well to witness our
decision. Prepare for judgment.�

To be continued�.
