2001
"So my future self saved everyone, and I'm being rewarded for it?" Paige said, as Leo explained what happened.
"Yep." Leo said.
"I got the good end of the deal."
"So when do I leave?" Paige said.
"Soon."
"What about the vortexes? Who will watch them?" Paige asked nervously, she didn't want her life's work handed over to just anyone.
"They already have someone lined up for the spot. And Paige could anyone who lives up here be all that bad?" Leo asked. His comforting words helped Paige calm down. "You're going down their as a mutual friend first. The elders are afraid that they will not accept you as a sister if that is the way you introduce yourself. And you won't know who you are really. Down there, you will have different memories. Different powers. You will essentially be a different person. But all you need to know to survive down there will be in your head. The elders have provided you with these false but true memories. They are memories of yours in a different universe. Actually, you will have memories of up here, for a couple of minutes but they will only be there for no more than five minutes." Leo looked at Paige's confused face and decided to move on. "I think you got my point with the different person. The sisters won't know who you are. They have already wiped their memories of today, because they don't want to know the future. And your previous meeting, although they don't remember it, and you personally weren't there, it will have an impact on the future, so we've changed the future."
"Do you know how much we've changed it?"
"It could be a little or it could be a lot. I don't know."
"Some whitelighter you are. Can't even figure out time travel." Paige joked. Leo smiled.
"I have to go down there. They are calling me." Leo said, excusing himself.
THREE DAYS LATER
"We are here to mourn the loss of Prudence Halliwell. A true friend, a hard worker, and a loving sister." The funeral person said. Piper and Phoebe sat in the front rows crying. They couldn't believe that their sister was dead. Outside, Paige orbed near the building. She looked around and saw the only building in sight. They must be in there. She thought. She walked in and almost cried herself as she realized what was being played out in front of her. Oh no! This wasn't supposed to happen. We couldn't have made that big of an influence. Who is it? There's Phoebe, and Piper. Oh no! Prue!" Suddenly, Paige knew nothing of up there, how she got there or anything about being magical. All she knew is that she thought that her sister was lying in the coffin at the front of the room.
