Ch. 11
I smiled slightly still a little bit nervous, because the idea itself was very lawbreaking whereas the elders were concerned. It would help out tremendously though and we really needed the power, "What if we sped things up a bit? We need power right, and what's stronger than the Power of Three? This could really help, but need the decision to be unanimous or else there is no point in even trying it out." Piper smiled a bit at my jitteriness.
Piper spoke up and helped out a bit, "Prue, your rambling. Just tell us already. Whatever it is we want to hear it, right?" Paige and Phoebe nodded their agreement. Paige was immediately interested, as she should be, because it directly affected her.
I took a deep breath to release the energy from my notion, "Ok, what if we bring in the Power of Four. I believe that the elders are afraid us and don't want us to become stronger. But here the elders don't have a say over what they don't know. They don't know to watch out for a power surge, and they have no control over this year's Prue. Although we'd have to explain how a sister spell works on a white-lighter. The truth should work. Like I said we need this to be unanimous. Especially you, Paige." They seemed shocked to how far this idea went, but otherwise seemed fine with it.
I watched Paige's reaction and she beamed after she thought about it. She finally voiced her excitement, "I get to meet you before Piper goes all big sister on us. Maybe I'll learn the craft quicker with you there to help." Wow, it was amazing what a couple of time travels and a demon attack could do to a person's sobriety. She seemed completely lucid; compared to her uncontrollable outbursts and urge to drink only a few hours ago for us. I didn't ever want to see her like that again, drunk I mean.
Piper seemed skeptical at first, probably because of the whole screwing with our future warnings that had gone through both of our heads. Still she eventually agreed and soon followed Phoebe's vote of confidence in the plan. Finally I asked the question I guess they thought had already been decided, however, I didn't want it to be, "Who's going to tell them?"
I got two looks of shock and another one that appeared amused. Paige watched as Phoebe and Piper came out of their stupor. I looked on defensively. Really why was that they automatically assumed that I would take control especially in the situation that would most likely involve either lying to myself or telling of my untimely demise. Finally Paige spoke up to my surprise, because honestly I thought that one of us should have told ourselves. "What if I'm the one who tells them. It could help us out and Prue has already done enough explaining. It's time I do my part. After all you three are trying to save me right?" She said this with a slight smirk of all knowing and strength that we had missed seeing from our little sister. I debated silently ,but then I thought about how sometimes it's easier to hear the truth from a stranger even if that stranger is truly your unknown sister. She would have us to back her word too. What could go wrong?
I nodded and that led Piper and Phoebe to agree. They seemed to be relieved that Paige was going back to her usual bold, spontaneous self. We made our way back up the stairs and into the attic where our younger selves waited curiously. The way my younger self eyed Paige made me think that she had a connection already. They seemed confused as to how to act around Paige, they all acted uncomfortable and award about her. Maybe they would be feel better once they knew the truth.
Paige walked a little in front of me and took a deep breath knowing what impact her next words could be on the Charmed Ones of this time. I also sighed wanting to close my eyes and wait for their reaction. I kind of felt anxious about meeting Paige when she was so young. I wondered if Paige and my relationship would be any different since this Paige wouldn't have been in my shadow at all. This Paige wasn't going to admire me or fear me. No, this Paige was a complete mystery to me. That's what scared me not knowing what was to come. Not knowing whether my idea would have a positive outcome. All I had was hope.
You know want to tell me what you thought. Everyone likes their opinion heard! Thanx for reading!
