Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed
A/N sorry it took awhile to update…this is NOT the way to start to try to be more efficient, guess the deadline thing failed. I'll try to do better…. Also thank you thank you thank you to my reviewers. (HyperCaz, you're amazing and I always love to hear from you.)
"Do you really think that was smart?" The Seer turned her lovely eyes to Phobos.
He, in turn, grinned, "I think that was very smart. I've put the 'threat' of Lilith on hold, met the 'Twice Blessed' and brother," he gave his head a shake of disgust, "They've been weighed and measured, to paraphrase a movie, and found lacking. I was so looking forward to a good fight," Phobos shrugged his powerful shoulders. "Oh, well, at least theirs is a large family. Maybe if I let them combine their strength it will seem more challenging…" he mused.
"What about Lilith?" The Seer questioned.
"What about Lilith?" Phobos echoed, "For now, she's busy licking her wounds and plotting revenge. Women," he snorted, "Hell hath no fury and all, but, please! She'll be busily plotting and we likely won't even see her for another thirty years."
"You are so different?" She put her hand on his shoulder and looked up at him.
"Well, I do plot and while I agree that revenge is sometimes served best cold, I don't think the dish needs to be freezer burned." He arched a brow at her which let her know that the conversation and her questions were starting to bore him.
Unable to help herself, she asked, "And the girl?"
"She made her choice," Phobos shrugged negligently, "She chose wrong, of course. She makes a sweetly tempting little pawn." He looked at his Seer in mock concern, "Are you worried that Lilith will find out that you helped her daughter overcome her spells? Originally, at least," he tsked, "too bad you didn't have a bit more power for the finale," he gave her a look of disappointment.
"But, you sent the girl to the Elders…" she continued her previous question.
He shot the Seer a look of malice, "I didn't know that I had to make you aware of MY plans, Seer. I was under the impression that you work for me?" He questioned softly, dangerously.

Bree looked around in surprise. Marble columns, gauzy, fluttery material, smoky haze, she'd never been 'up there' but she had a sinking sensation that that's where she ended up. A shrouded figure walked towards her.
"You don't need to be afraid, child," The Elder said gently. "You've made a difficult choice. Now you must find the strength to start over."
"'Over'? Recycled 'over'?" Bree asked fearfully.
The Elder laughed in merriment. He wiped tiny tears from the corners of his eyes before he continued, "No. Not recycled," he looked at Bree kindly, "I meant new life 'start over'. We've assigned a White-Lighter to you. Welcome to the good side." He winked. "Since your circumstances are 'special', we've decided that you should stay with your White-Lighter, let her teach you how to fit into the human world.""
"When do I meet my White-Lighter?" Bree asked, anxious to get her new life started.
"Her circumstances are somewhat 'special' too, so I'll have to take you to a meeting place." With that he orbed the two of them away.
The orbs reappeared atop of Golden Gate Bridge. Bree looked down in surprise, then looked straight ahead expectantly as she saw orbs gathering. The orbs revealed her beautiful, petite, porcelain skinned, red headed White-Lighter.
The woman looked at the Elder, "You rang?" Bree instantly liked her new White-Lighter. She sensed spunkiness to the higher being that seemed lacking in the Elders of her kind.
The Elder introduced the two women, "Paige, I'd like to introduce you to your new charge. This is Bree."
A/N Are the Elders interfering with their Elderly plans? Will Wyatt be thrilled or annoyed? How will Bree fit into Paige's family? Answers to these questions and more, same bat-time, same bat-channel….
