Paige had orbed her and Wyatt home after the long day at the hospital. Wyatt was asleep and Paige practically dead on her feet taking him to bed but there were things to be done.

Phoebe sighed first stop the attic.

She took deep breaths walking toward the attic it seemed like it took every ounce of strength she had not to run away because she knew that this was now basically a crime scene.

Books were everywhere pages burnt out Aunt murals couch destroyed their wiccan table shattered pieces of wood scattered the floor and glass was everywhere, the once peaceful cluttered filled room was broken.

Phoebe sighed she didn't have the heart to pick everything up by hand and didn't care about personal gain this was going to be brand new better than before fixed unlike her heart.

"Let the object of objection become but a dream as I call…" she stumbled over the words as her eyes found a patch of blood.

She tried to continue she really did but it was to much Phoebe turned and left. She couldn't be expected to face that it wasn't fair she stopped at Pipers door her breath catching.

She remembered what Paige said how Chris died and where.

Phoebe slowly pushed the door open and choked on a sob.

Pipers favorite comforter was drenched in blood.

Chris's blood.

Her nephews blood.

While the tears streamed down her face she grabbed other sheets a new comforter her sister couldn't see this Piper didn't even know yet or maybe she did now part of her wished Leo wouldn't tell her she could only imagine her big sisters pain.

Phoebe quickly went to the bed but as soon as she touched it she was thrown back in her mind to the past she saw Chris running towards Wyatt and failing Gideon holding Wyatt "for the greater good" whispered around her she saw Leo holding Chris crying and saw her nephew disappear .

Phoebe wrenched herself from the past and sat on the ground sob after sob taking affect. "Phoebe?" she heard Paige's voice but she couldn't find her own. "Phoebe?" Paige opened the door.

Phoebe looked up at her baby sister and saw the pain on her face the tears in her eyes as she joined Phoebe on the floor.

"We failed him" Phoebe croaked out.

Paige nodded and put her arm around her sister.

Phoebe leaned against her needing some strength some comfort.

"Ya we did. We failed future Chris but Phoebe we have another chance to make it right. Save Wyatt well Chris did that he made that happen now we save Chris. We wont let this happen again. And" Paige continued dragging a raw breath of pain "We stay strong. For Wyatt for Leo. And mostly for Piper"

Phoebe sighed and wiped away the tears she scrubbed her face "Piper" she breathed oh god. She was going to be devasted enough without Phoebe sobbing away. "Your right."

Paige nodded "I always am" she smiled weakly and Phoebe gave a chuckle.

"What now?" Paige asked.

Phoebe sighed again god she felt she had aged 10 years. "Now we channel Piper and clean till are hands are bloody."

They stood and hugged both needing to feel like not everything was lost both broke apart and stared at the blood for a moment longer both realizing that neither could remove it without feeling like they were removing him forever


2 weeks later

Piper had been home and yet not really Paige thought sadly.

The day Piper came come she was sad and took Wyatt and Chris to their room and didn't come down. The next morning she was in the kitchen making a meal fit for kings and being her normal self. Along with nervous over chatty and slightly to cheerful.

Phoebe thought she had cast another spell on her self but Leo said no it was her way of dealing and they both new it wasn't.

Piper yelled and broke things and let everyone know that she was pissed.

Their suspicion was confirmed when they realized that Piper slept in the boys room. Not once taking a step in hers.

Leo could talk to her that is if he was around, he was off killing every demon he could. They both were avoiding it.

The pain the love neither parent could handle anything that was future Chris.
