Christopher Perry Halliwell was polishing glasses in his mother's club. He missed his parents, but he went on with life. His big brother Wyatt was serving some customers, and Mel was sitting with her boyfriend having a good time. Chris smiled, he loves seeing his little baby sister happy, it made him feel happy.

'Wyatt, go apologize to Mel, after all, she isn't a little kid anymore, let her have fun' Chris told his big brother, and then laughed when Wyatt made a face, and murmured something about Chris being a spoilsport. 'I cant help it bro, I'm the middle child, its what I do. No more toads, ok?' Wyatt smiled to himself, remembering the time he had turned Lucas into a toad. Oh, Mel had been so mad at him.

Chris smiled when he saw the new helper they had given the job. She reminded him of his girlfriend Ali in a way, but there was something else about her that he liked. She smiled back at him. Her brunette hair was slightly wavy, and her lips were perfectly shaped. She wore the lipstick that reminded him of his aunt Paige.

'Hey Chris, what do you want me to do today? I could do anything really' Chris admired that she was always so ready to work. There was something that made him pity her, there was look of suffering in her emerald eyes.

'Actually, could you answer this one question.' She looked at him for a second, then nodded slowly. 'Where are you from?' The question surprised her, but she quickly recovered herself.

'Sorry, I cant tell you that, but not because I don't want to... ' Chris looked at her, remembering saying something like that in his previous life.

'Now its my turn to ask the question. Do you believe in magic?' She whispered in his ear. Chris stood with his mouth open for a second, then nodded silently.

Mel heard the word magic and froze everybody. She looked really happy to hear that word come from someone else, other than their close friends.

'Hi, so, are you a witch then?' Mel asked the girl. She nodded at first, then shook her head.

'Witch-lighter.' Wyatt came across when he saw everyone was frozen, and that Mel and Chris were talking to the girl.

'Hi I'm Wyatt, where are you from?' the girl giggled.

'Um… I dunno if I should say, because of… a certain type of consequences and all that.' The three siblings stood, staring at the mysterious girl.

'What's your name?' Mel asked, realising they didn't even know her name. the girl smiled.

'Callie, Callie Penny'

Mel, Wyatt, Chris and Callie arrived at the Halliwell manor after a long day's work at P3. Chris had called Ali and asked her to come over, and Wyatt had called Kayla. Ali was really friendly to Callie, and talked to her about really silly things, like girls do.

'So, where are you from then?' Ali asked Callie innocently. Callie looked up at her sadly.

'If I tell you, you have to promise to keep it a secret, I don't want them knowing, not yet.' she nodded over to the Halliwells. Ali sighed, but nodded all the same. 'I'm from the future, I came back to save it' Ali looked into Callie's emerald eyes and realised who she was.

'Alright, I'll keep your secret, but save it from what?' Ali was sure she already knew the answer, but she had to make sure.

'I cant tell you, future consequences. Sorry' Ali laughed at Callie's remark. She wondered who Callie's mother was…

'What are your powers Cal? Besides orbing that is.' Callie knew that question was coming. She rolled her eyes.

'I can, um… shoot lightning bolts from my hands, my mom could too, both my parents were part white-lighter… I can freeze things and blow things up too.' She looked over her shoulder to where Wyatt was talking to Kayla. 'Don't tell them though.' Ali promised not to tell.

There was a yell from Mel's room, and they all orbed there. Callie was terrified by who she saw. A young man, no older than 20, was choking Mel to death.

'Scott! Leave her alone!' Callie yelled, blowing up Scott's shoulder. He was distracted enough that Mel could get away.

'You did it again! You betrayed me! Little sister.' Everyone looked around at Callie in surprise. Everyone that is, except Ali.

'Oh bugger' Ali shook her head in despair. 'Don't tell me it's the whole evil big brother deal in the future too!' She cried out. Scott looked at her in surprise, not thinking she would have guessed so soon. Callie just rolled her eyes.

'Well isn't that obvious?' She turned to Scott. 'Get lost! All you did was betray our whole family, mum dad, everyone! The whole damned world Scott!' She screamed in rage and grief.

Wyatt and Chris looked at each other, half not believing what was going on. Chris was the first of the two to say something.

'Did she just say… future?' He stood gawping at Callie and Scott. Wyatt nodded.

'And evil big brother, and betrayal… Holy Hell!' To everyone's surprised it was Callie who turned around and slapped him.

'Never ever use those two words in the same sentence!' Wyatt stood stunned. Then he smiled.

'Does Kayla teach everyone to say that to me or something?' Before Callie could reply, Scott threw an energy ball at Chris.

Chris jumped out of the way, but Mel, who was standing behind him, got hit. Callie's blood boiled, and bolts of blue lightning came from the tips of her fingers and hit Scott.

'How… of course! Our real mother'

He smirked at her before yelling in pain and orbing out… in dark orbs. Tears began to form in Callie's eyes. She didn't want to be reminded of what she had lost.

Chris kneeled beside his little sister and healed her. She opened her eyes, and saw Callie crying. She knew how hard it must be for her, she saw Chris go through the same thing.

Callie remembered a song she had always liked, from a movie she had watched when she was little.

'Hey, guys, you don't happen to have the film "The magic sword, Quest for Camelot" do you?' Chris smiled and nodded.

'Which song is it you wanna listen to? I'm sure we can find it on youtube.' Callie smiled sadly back at him. He saw that she had the same sort of eyes as him, but hers were full of pain and suffering. He took her in his arms and hugged her tight. 'Shhh, its alright, we'll help you, you don't have to do any of this alone, ok?' He wiped her tears away with his thumb, and she cried even more. Wyatt glanced over at Ali, he knew that she knew something.

'Al, what is it?' Wyatt asked her telepathically. She shook her head.

No, I cant Wyatt, I promised her. Wyatt sighed and tried again to convince Ali to tell him.

Please, how can we help her if we don't know who she is? Ali sighed and gave in.

A Halliwell. But keep it quiet, I don't want her to be angry at me.

'Callie' Wyatt said in the sort of way that he was going to ask a question afterwards. She let go of Chris and looked over at Wyatt.

'So, by 'certain types of consequences… you meant…' Callie rolled her eyes. Ali gave Wyatt an evil glare.

'Yeah, future consequences' Chris and Wyatt looked at each other. Chris looked devastated, Wyatt just concerned.

Oh no
