Who: Christy and Billie Jenkins
What: The last time they'd seen each other seemed like hours ago
Where: A Starbucks not far from the apartments
When: 5th September 2009
Rating: TBD
Status: In Progress

Starbucks. Of all places to meet the sister who had so betrayed her. A Starbucks. Christy didn't know yet what she was going to really say or do. Wyatt all grown up had been a definite kick in the teeth. He'd have to be the first to die. But the sisters not knowing her? That had its advantages in its own way. All she could really say though was that it was a pity Piper wasn't here. Piper who had been the one to kill Dumain not once, but twice. Piper who had cost her so much, a friend, and a sister. Still she'd make do with killing her son. And taking her sister back. She was the eldest, It was up to her to show Billie the truth. To show her sister how things were supposed to be. She'd just have to be more careful this time round. No casual talk about killing. Nothing overtly 'evil'. No she had to play like Billie would want. Contrite, willing to change, being the sister Billie had always wanted while taking Paige, Pheobe and Wyatt down.

The demon, Lilith, had offered her a lot. And Christy was used to demons. She knew never to say yes to anything that could be considered a contract. No, she and Lilith had made an arrangement, witch and demon. That was all. She'd get Lilith the power that she and Billie could conjure together and in return she'd have help to kill Wyatt and the sisters. She wondered could Lilith swing bringing Piper in just so Christy could kill her. She'd enjoy that.

But first the traitor sister. Billie had stood with the sisters, as the Triad and Dumain had died screaming. She'd been telling her just to come home, come home like it was that easy. Christy didn't have a home. She'd never had a home. Not really. How could she have come home? Billie had made her choice and Christy had conjured a fireball. For her, for Piper, she wasn't even sure where it would have gone. She'd never been betrayed like that before. But here and now she had to play at contrite, sorry. She'd made so many bad mistakes and now she needed her sisters help. She'd even be sympathetic when her friends started dying.

She stepped into the Starbucks and ordered something random from the menu knowing Billie would pay for it, she found a seat and waited for what she knew would be a lot of talented acting on her part and her sister's incredible naievete and want of a family to back it up. The Charmed Ones were not Billie's family. She was. And her destiny was to join Christy and truly become the Ultimate Power again.

And you didn't walk away from destiny. Even in this strange dimension.

What did you do in a situation like this? As if back home hadn't been twisted enough. As if her life hadn't already fallen apart. She'd been used by her sister, lost the one person she thought she could count on more than anything. She'd betrayed the Charmed Ones, thinking they were the ones who had betrayed her. Everything was ruined. Then she ended up here, with two thirds of the Charmed Ones who didn't remember her, and once Second Generation. Wyatt, all grown up. Delivering news that the Charmed Ones forgave her. He never did mention Christy, and Billie was scared to ask.

It also seemed that this world was insane. People were going crazy left and right, she wasn't really sure she wanted to go the apartments, but she had to trust Paige.

But she wanted to trust her sister. The Charmed Ones, what they had was unstoppable, and now just in magic. She wanted to be like that with her sister. To be a family. She'd watch her sister come into the store, order food, and sit down. Billie had been on the otherside, slightly hidden by some decor.

Sighing, the witch heaved herself out of her seat, stopping only at the counter to pay for what Christy had ordered before she went over.
A few seconds later, Billie was standing on the other side of the table, hands on the back of the chair, looking down at Christy with wide eyes.

"There's a reason we both had to have survived that battle." she said quietly so no on else can here. Without the power of three they were stronger than the Charmed Ones. Billie was half worried Christy was going to try and take advantage of that.

The battle. Billie wouldn't have surrvived it. But it did mean she probably didn't remember the fireball. It was something she didn't have to explain. "I don't remember how it ended or how we surrvived. You know the power we have together, maybe in spite of...everything. Maybe it saved us" said Christy, actually truthfully. "I remember the Triad dying and then Dumain, both of..."

That was not a topic she should really go into with her sister. It wouldn't help either of them any. And that wasn't her purpose for being here. No, she had to convince Billie. Slowly. While making the Charmed Ones suffer.

"It's strange, last time I saw you I was so angry. I wanted to hurt you. I really did but now...I don't know, I...just know you're my sister and I love you and I know what I was doing was all kinds of messed up but I don't know how to be someone better. Will you help me?"

It did seem possible. There was something about other worlds and demons, but the idea they their power had kept them together? She did want to believe that was true, and it honestly sounded like Christy believed it too. Billie understood that the Triad and Dumain were important to her sister. She even understood why, but she couldn't keep thinking like that. It was wrong. It wasn't Christys fault, but it was wrong. It was dangerous.

She'd seen the anger in Christy. Billie had been shocked then. Almost numb, and not sure what to think. She knew she had to do the right thing, but she wanted to desperately to make Christy see that what the Charmed Ones did was a good thing.

Staring at Christy for a moment, Billie stepped around the chair and slid into the seat infront of her, shoulders slouching slightly. Maybe she couldn't force her life on Christy too quickly. Billie had brought her right into the manor and it hadn't worked out. Those demons had brainwashed her, who knows what they had done to her to make her think freely that they were the good guys. "New world, new chance?" it did make sense. "I want us to be sisters, Christy. Real sisters, but the Charmed Ones aren't evil. They kept that world safe."

Ugh she was so very naieve. New world new chance. It would be better for Billie when she accepted her power. Got away from the Charmed Ones. They were evil. Billie just needed to accept that and be a good sister again. She'd betrayed her own sister and she'd have to come back from that. But not yet.

"I want that too. To be your sister again. To do sister stuff. I look at the sisters and I wonder can we ever be that close?" she sighed and slid a hand acrss the table to Billie noting her sisters body language, she hadn't won her over yet. Not yet. And if she was too contrite Billie would see through it eventually. "I don't...like them. I don't and its going to take me some time to see that they're not what I was always taught they were"

Even though Piper had killed her friend. In front of her. Twice.

"When we first started talking about what we were and what I could do. You said my powers weren't evil. Do you still believe that? Honestly. Do you think I'm evil Billie?"

Of course she was raised that way. Demons were out to take over, and to do that they needed to kill the Charmed One. To kill the Charmed Ones they needed the two of them. They were the ones that could do it, and that didn't sit well with Billie.

Her eyes flicked down to watch Christy's hand as it moved. Her arm twitched for a moment before she forced her hand to stay where it was. She wanted to trust her sister, so she had to let her try.

Did she think Christy was evil? She worked for the wrong side, yes. But because she didn't know any better. "I think you believe you're not working for the evil guys. Because that's all you've known. No, you're not evil, it's just the only thing you know."

But that had to change. She was a witch. Powers weren't evil, they were a blessing. "Powers aren't evil. Your powers aren't evil. We're supposed to use them to make things right."

And she'd noticed the twitch, of course she had, and Billie had given her something else to use to get under her skin. Again. It was highly entertaining doing so as well. The sister so so desperate for family. Christy would be that for her like she'd always wanted. Cause the truth was she did care for Billie. If her sister would only see how things were supposed to be it could all be okay.

"You do." she said softly "You were gonna move your hand away weren't you?". Christy pulled her hand away and looked down. "I know you think it. I mean I haven't checked or anything cause its you. But I know. Because of what we did to the sisters, thats what you think. You said to come home. You said you wanted me to come home. Do you still want that?"

Make things right. Sure. That was her plan too, It was just that her sister had the wrong definition of right. That was all.

"In our time, they don't think I can change. The sisters. I always hoped you'd feel a bond. A real bond, You and me"

"No, I don't." she said with a shake if her head, "But I think I have a reason to be worried. They would have killed us after we had taken care of the Charmed Ones for them. They didn't care about us, Christy. But I'm worried you see them more as a family." And they weren't, they never would be. Once the Charmed ones were gone they would have turned on Christy and herself.

The sisters had each other. Wyatt said Billie was like family, but she had a hard time believing that. Not to mention Paige and Phoebe didn't even know who she was here. "You're the only family I have, of course I want you to come home." she paused for a second, before breathing out a short laugh. "Whatever that means anymore." it wasn't like either of them had a home to go to anymore.

If Christy checked her head, Billie wouldn't be upset. She was being honest. She did want her sister back, but she did have worries. How could she not? But she wanted things set right.

Christy closed her eyes for a moment, fake confusion mixed with real anger, and if she let herself believe it for a second, another hint of confusion. What was she saying? Didn't care? Dumain had cared. Of course he'd cared. He'd been family of a sort hadn't he. She rubbed her temples for a moment but looked up before anything happend. And it might have??

"Paige, she said about apartments. And I don't know, All grown up Wyatt already said he wouldn't trust me and mentioned the whole...power stealing thing. He'd never gonna let up on me Billie. Maybe we should get a place? Just you and me. That's what sisters do right? I need you to keep me on track. Just you and me huh?"

She wasn't going to look in her sisters mind, not just yet anyway. She'd consider it later, but for now she had to be as genuine as she could. It was the best way to get into her confidances. "This place, the sisters not knowing who we are. Wyatt being older? Its all confusing"

The apartments did seem a bit crazy now. And she knew that Wyatt would never trust Christy. They'd be watched, but Paige was also her teacher. So Billie would be coming back and forth. If she could stay with Christy, then maybe she could talk her around. But she'd have to check in on everything.

Maybe he'd let up eventually, if Christy did change. "Alright." she said softly with a brief nod. "We'll get our own place. But close to the apartments. Paige is still my teacher, not to mention apparently there's new rules we have to learn to survive." and she'd trust Paige to teach it too her.

"I know." Billie said, first looking down, but then soon bringing her eyes back to Christy. "Wyatt calls me his aunt but we don't mean anything to the others."

Well that had been easy. Sweet naieve sister, she thought but smiled sweetly. Or as sweetly as she could manage. It was sweet enough in her opinion. She had her sister back, that was a start to more and Billie would see how important that was down the line. She'd see that Paige wasn't her friend. That she didn't need Paige.

Her teacher. Christy had to surpress a shudder. Aunt? Had Billie so changed that a Halliwell child called her Aunt. Still that wouldn't happen not here. She'd kill the son of a bitch, and continue to be amused at how true that phrase was when ones mother was Piper Halliwell.

"Rules?" she asked curiously, mostly even genuinely. " Paige can teach you some rules for how this place works and maybe you can teach me. I know that there are demons but maybe...I guess its best if I stay away from them isn't it. People would...Wyatt would assume that I was working with them, Maybe you would too. So I should stay out of any fighting them? And, well, Billie maybe its better Paige and Phoebe don't know what we...What I did? Maybe it'll save trouble for us?"

"Something about demons that possess people, and protection from them." she had no desire to have a demon running around inside of her, and apparently there were ways to keep them out of places. If that was the case, then Billie was all for learning it. "I guess we can't just vanquish them. They have to be exorcised, which means learning latin." and probably lots of it. Just wonderful.

Either way she needed to learn how to do these things, so they could both learn them. Of course she would pass on whatever Paige taught her to Christy about keeping herself safe from demons. The others might not trust Christy, and with valid reasons, but it would be worse if she was possessed.

She'd been thinking the same thing, but she also felt the need to tell the sisters the truth. "I was debating that...but I think Wyatt is going to tell them either way." because he would know, and he probably wasn't going to keep the story from Phoebe and Paige if they asked.

Demons wouldn't dare touch her, even without Lilith's help, everything burned didn't it. Everything burned. But she'd learn whatever this world had to teach, if she had demons to help her then she'd need to know their strengths and weaknesses. They'd be useful to her in her battle against the Halliwells, getting her sister back, and she'd be blameless. Because if it didn't look obviously her then of course Billie would want to believe the very best of her. She wanted a family too. Wanted her sister back. Just in a different way. The right way

"I'll figure out how to surrvive here. You'll help me won't you, even if the Halliwells never accept me I'll have you"

Of course Wyatt would tell the sisters, explain how she'd taken his power, used him to summon the Hollow, all of it. They'd try and take her sister away again and this time, they wouldn't get away wih it, this time they wouldn't get a chance.
