Patyn looked around at all the odd people. She didn't recognize half of them and it scared her that they were all crying. She looked over at her aunties. They were both crying uncontrobably. Her dad didn't even notice the tears that were falling down his cheeks.

"Melly. What's in that box?" asked Patyn softly trying to get out of her seat to see what was in that box in the front of the room.

"That's where mommy is," Melinda answered quietly.

Patyn smiled. "I know she wasn't dead," she thought. "Now I can go see her"

Patyn slid off of her chair and slowly walked over to the casket. She tried peering over the top but she was too little. She suddenly felt something grab her from behind and lift her up.

"Honey do you really want to see mommy?" asked Leo as he whispered in her ear.

Patyn nodded. "Melinda said she was in that box. Please let me look"

Leo sighed as he turned Patyn over so they were face to face. "Sweetheart. Mommy is not going to look the same. She is going to look blue and she is not going to talk to you"

"Why not. She is alive. Dead people are under the ground." Patyn said confused.

Leo shook his head as he turned Patyn around and let her peer into the casket. Piper's eyes were closed and she had scratches on her face. Her skin was blue and her chest didn't move up and down.

"Daddy make mommy move" Patyn said tears coming to her eyes. "She said she would be home right away and then would hug me. Make her hug me daddy"

"Honey mommy is dead now. She can't hug you" Leo said moving her away from the casket.

Patyn struggled to go back to the box. "No! Daddy put me down. She is not dead"

Phoebe jumped out of her seat and went over to the two mourners. "Sweetie come with auntie"

Crying Patyn held her arms out to Phoebe as she took her from Leo. She couldn't understand why her mom was dead. She was fine just yesterday on the phone.

"Please auntie take her to me" Patyn said between sobs. "She is not supposed to die!"

Little Patyn slowly climbed the stairs with Melinda right behind her. They opened the attic door and let themselves in.

"Patyn were not suppose to be in here without daddy or mommy," said Melinda loudly as she grabbed her hand.

"I saw mommy do this once. To call grandma. We can do this for mommy" Patyn said grabbing some white candles out of the trunk and making a small circle.

"Silly mommy's not going to fit in there," Melinda said as she spread the candles out further.

"What did mommy do next?" asked Patyn to her sister trying to think hard.

"She went over to the book," Melinda said grabbing the book from the mantel. She struggled to carry it to the couch. "There is a spell in here"

At that moment the pages of the book started flipping by itself. The girls jumped back in horror.

"May maybe we should go" Patyne said as she hugged herself tightly.

Melinda glared at her. "Do you want to see mommy or not?"

Patyne nodded. She really did. The girls looked over at the book. In there was the spell.

"Can you read it Melly?" asked Patyne softly.

Melinda nodded. "I think so. Okay I'll trying by myself if I need your help I will tell you"

Hear these words, hear my cry Spirits from the other side Come to me, I summon thee Cross now the great divide.

When Melinda said those last words a swirl of white lights intertwined in side the circle. The girls both scared hugged each other tightly and shut their eyes. What they did now know was that the shape of a body was being formed and soon there was Grams and Patty standing there. Patyn looked up. She knew those people.

"Grandma?" asked Patyn.

Patty smiled as she stepped out of the circle and became whole. Grams did the same and both went towards the little girls. Patty knelled down to their size.

"Oh my sweet girls" Patty said quietly wrapping them in a hug. "Grandma why didn't mommy come" Patyn said stubbornly.

Patty looked over at Grams. Grams picked up Patyn and held her close. She then separated them a bit so they were face to face.

"Honey you can't see mommy yet. Not for a while" Grams said quietly.

"Why not?" asked Patyn confused.

"Why can we see you then" Melinda said angrily.

"Because we have been dead for a while now. Mommy hasn't. You can't see her just yet my darlings." Grams said trying to explain.

Patyn's lip trembled. "But I wanna see her. I miss her grams. I really do"

"Oh I know honey" Grams said hugging her close. "Your mommy was about this age when grandma died you know"

"Really?" asked Melinda trying to hold back her on tears.

Patty nodded. "She was very angry to. I know it hurts. It always will but you just have to be strong"

At that moment another swirl of white lights appeared and Piper formed. She slowly stepped out of the circle. No one was aware that she was there. Melinda suddenly took a glance behind Grams and saw her. Her whole face lit up and she ran for her. Patyn saw her to by then and scrambled down.

"Mommy I knew you would come back" excited Patyne said as she jumped up and down.

"Only for a minute sweetheart. Mommy has to tell you girls something," Piper said leading the girls to the couch.

Suddenly the door opened and Leo stepped into the room. He looked around and was confused at the sight he saw.

"Hey honey" Piper said her eyes glinting with tears.

Leo walked across the room and wrapped her in a big hug.

"The girls called me," Piper explained. "Sit down please"

When everyone was sitting Piper started explaining.

"I know you girls miss me. I do to. I miss you guys coming into my room in the night. Afraid of your bad dreams. You girls shouldn't have to go through this." Piper said as tears spilled down her cheeks. "Please don't be mad at me. Daddy is going to take care of you now"

"Mommy please" Patyn said her cheeks already flooded with tears. "I want you"

"You can't my girl. Mommy has to go now. Please" Piper said as she stood up and walked to the candles. She turned around a let her arms out. All three of them ran into it and cried.

"Come on" Leo said grabbing hold of Patyn that was stuck to Piper's waist.

The three ghosts walked back into the candles.

"I love you guys very much. Give lots of love to Prue for me" Piper said before they orbed out.

The family looked down at the ground for a long time. Melinda heard it first. The sound of paper fluttering to the ground. She picked it up and looked at it. She gave it to Leo. He smiled. It was a note. It read..

My dearest family...

Leo be strong for the girls. They need you lots. I love you so much. Remember when you hit rough times I'm only a call away. I know you will raise those girls the best way you can. I love you. Keep good care of them for me.

Melinda. My first-born. I'm so sorry. I wish it had never turned out this way. Remember now that daddy is in charge. He loves you very much even though at times you don't realize it. Keep good care of Patyn and Prue for me. You are the big girl in the house.

Patyn. My girl keep fighting. I know this is very sad for you. I know how close you are to mommy but you have to get close to daddy now to. Keep good care of everyone. Whenever you need me remember I'm with you always in your heart.

Prue. My baby. I know you hardly knew me but I loved you so much. This will be the hardest for you because you almost never knew me at all. Talk to auntie Phoebe she knows what that's like.

Well that's it. Tell my sisters I love them to bits. Take care you guys.

Love you always, Piper.
