Annie stood there impatiently, knocking on the door every once and a while, waiting for someone to answer the door.
Maybe they're up in the attic looking through the book, she thought.
She rose her arm up ready to ring the door bell, when she heard a familiar voice behind her.
"Can I help you?" Piper Halliwell asked when she spotted the short statured teenager on her fronch porch.
"Oh, I'm sorry. I was actually looking for you." Annie answered.
"Me? Why me?" asked Piper.
Annie hesitated at first, looking at Piper, she was afraid she wouldn't believe her, but she had a way to prove what she was about to say, she took a deep breath, looked Piper dtraight in her big brown eyes and said, "Because you are my mother."
Piper's eyes widened when she heard this young lady's responce.
"Excuse me? I'm sure, I've never been-"
"Oh, wait, hold on, "they" sent me here from the future." Annie added quickly cutting Piper off.
"how do I know, you aren't a demon?"
Exactly what Annie had expected. She took a deep breath closed her eyes, and orbed away. She reappeared inside the manor and waited until the foyer came into full view, she then spun around and opened the door, smiling at an even more stunned Piper.
"Well that'll do the trick." Piper managed to say.
"Oh and Dad know I'm coming too." Annie told her.
"Dad? Oh you mean Leo?" pausing Piper looked at Annie for reassurance, the continued,"Leo?!" Piper waited anxiously for the bright blue swirly light signaling Leo's arrival, which soon came.
"Yes honey" Leo asked, but Leo suddenly knew why Piper had called as soon as he saw his 15 year old daughter. He smiled and wave,she did the dame in responce.
"When were you planning on sharing that "they' were sending our daughter here form the future?" Piper asked, slightly aggitated.
"'They' just told me like five minutes ago." Leo said cautiously waiting for acknowledgment from Piper which came in a nod. With that he walked past Piper over to Annie, and gave her a big hug.
"Hey Annie! how was the trip?"He asked her.
"It was unusually soothing, no noide wat so ever." She answered.
"Annie?"Piper asked, her tone explaining if Annie was her whloe name.
"Anne-marie, actually. Anne-marie Constance Halliwell. Annie has been my nic-name since I was a toddler." Annie told Piper.
After that, Annie turned back to Leo, and they had a nice little conversation, unknowing that Piper waswatching with a small smile on her face. Piper couldn't belive what she was seeing. Annie looked only a little like her when she was a teenager, only with less acne, and a much more outgoing personality.
"So, Annie, did "they" explain to you why exactly you're here?" Piper asked.
"Apparently, there's some "powerful evil" after you, and your powers wont be enought to vanquish it alone. And since I'm the only Halliwell-wyatt that didn't inherit Dad's passifist-ness, "they" sent me here to elp you fight."Annie explained to her mother.
" Great. So you aren't passifist?" Asked Piper,only a little confused.
"Thats right, which mean we need to start the training now." Leo said.
"Oh come on, I just got here! Cant we have lunch or something?" Asked Annie, who was whining.
" Later, i promise, but we need to make of the time we have. We dontknow when the demon will strike." Leo said.
"Come one Leo, she jsut a kid give her a break." Piper said to her hisband.
"She's not the one thats going to be trained Piper. Its you three. You need to call Phoebe and Paige.
