Part Three
Piper's clean ordered kitchen had been over run. The three Charmed Ones had all poured themselves coffee to try and wake up a little. Piper had (baby) Wyatt over her shoulder trying to calm down her son's wails. Phoebe was at the table with the coffee pot next to her, while Paige still at little taken aback was throwing some cereal into a bowl.
The younger generation had gone back to bickering amongst themselves again. Wyatt buttered himself another slice of toast while the girl were stood arguing. He allowed himself a brief smile; it was just like a normal day. Their parents were trying to get things done while the girls were disagreeing over something in the corner of the room. Only this time it was different, very different. They weren't arguing over who stole someone's lipstick, top or even boyfriend but how the house had been destroyed and how they had time travelled so far back.
"I'm telling you now you screwed up on the spell." Melinda kept telling her cousin. "We should have gone back only a couple of hours, just to stop going shopping and stop the demon."
"Well I did the best I could, you know I don't have a Harry Potter time turner thingy!"
Melinda waved the day's newspaper frantically. "You sent us back 20 years, look at the date, its says 2003!"
"Well I just seen my parents been killed, our house in ruins, we were ourselves at risk and uncle Leo said to go back. So sorry it wasn't up to your perfect standards but I did the best I could!" Paris told her waving her arms. "Besides I'm not the only blond in this room!"
"Oh don't even go there!"
"Shut it! Look there has to be a reason why we came back this far." Neve told them, taking a cigarette out of her purse.
"Woah, what are you doing?" Melinda said looking at her younger cousin.
"It helps me calm down and think!"
Melinda grabbed the cigarette. "We have a baby in the room, hello passive smoke."
"It's only Wyatt!"
"Yeah its only Wyatt!" Paris agreed. "Do you guys realise how completely weird it is seeing Wyatt in diapers and screaming his head off!"
Melinda laughed, "nah, I saw the photos of that party last week!"
Wyatt buried his head in his toast to hind the red glint that had run across his face.
Phoebe looked over at their offspring and turned to her nephew. "Hey buddy you going to stop them, so we can discuss things."
"Why, they will just argue themselves out, it's a daily occurrence. It's kinda comforting in a way, you know, it makes everything normal." He replied shrugging.
Paige looked over at her older sister and nephew. "Yeah, but we kind of need to sort things out as soon as possible. So we can send you guys back and not effect the future."
"Okay, okay," Wyatt thought for a minute before saying, "Daniel Hendon's got a new tattoo on his."
The bickering stop as Wyatt lowed his eyes looking downward with a grin on his face. The three girls with a mixture of expressions on their faces turned round and both Phoebe and Paige started laughing.
Piper shook her head trying to hold a straight, "It's nice to know our daughters' pay attention to some things."
"Yeah men!" Phoebe said through giggling.
Piper took her seat next to Phoebe. "So now we're got your guys attention, can we try and work things out and this time without breaking into arguments every two minutes."
"Okay, we were shopping for your 50th birthday mom." Melinda started ignoring Phoebe and Paige's sniggers. "So I guess that's the dumb luck on how we escaped."
"Dumb luck! We were meant to come back and fix this. I'm not seeing them premonition ever again!" Paris said as she shot her cousin a look. "We came back home to find the manor in ruins, you in ash and a hooded figure lucking so we fled and arrive here. So now we've just got to work out why were here and then get back without involving you guys. So Neve can take the book, Wyatt the net and me and Mel can do the ground work, you know trying to get a premonition or something."
"Well you can tell she's your daughter Pheebs, single minded, stubbornness must run in the genes." Piper said smiling.
"No that from her father, she just gets the brains from me! Incidentally if you could just slip your father's name, occupation, looks or any minor details into a conversation, it would be greatly appreciated." Phoebe told her. "But seriously we are not going to let you four deal with this on your own."
"Besides we want to know all the gossip like what's Piper's like at 50!" Paige smirked. "And who's your dad too."
"Well, its not this amazing male witch that you met at Wicca store or a whitelighter or anything like that. It was an mistake, a one night stand that went wrong." Neve spat out.
There was no point in this pretence that had been imposed upon and she had taken from granted before she started questioning things. She was just here to do a job and then get back to her normal life.
"So I've got the book!" Neve said, leaving the room and visible shocked Paige.
"I wondered how long it would take." Paris shook her head. "Lets get to work and fix this mess guys, see you later mom."
The two girls left the room followed by Wyatt and Phoebe wrapped her arm around her younger sister holding her tight to her. "I'm sure she didn't mean."
"Yeah, she just in shock about seeing us, well, er, die." Piper offered joining the other two.
Paige ran her faces across her face. "Damn, I must have screwed up big time."
"No you didn't, because you've got one hell of a spirited girl there and that takes talent. She takes after you in that respect. I'll help her with the book." Phoebe told her moving the hair out of her baby sister's eyes.

Paris and Melinda were standing outside. Paris was picking anything and everything up, trying to get a premonition of anything. While Melinda was keeping an eye out in case any hooded figure approached. Paris had only the passive power of premonition while Melinda had the firepower of both temporal status and orbing. So despite the occasional disagreement, when it came to demons the girl had taken to working together.
"I can't believe she said that!" Melinda finally said what they both had been thinking.
"Yeah, I know, aunt Paige is the best, and she always there for everyone. I mean who else could manage a new baby, new husband, job, Wicca duties and make all the time in the world for Neve especially at her age."
"You mean little miss, I've got a new boyfriend who thinks that drugs and alcohol is the best thing since sliced bread. She's screwed up."
"Cut her some slack, our worlds have just been destroyed and we've no proof that she's definitely." Paris started but was cut off by a premonition while picking up Phoebe sweater, which had fallen off the washing line.
Melinda helped her cousin to a seat. "What did you see?"
"We've come back now, because, now is when, that, that, demon was created, formed or something like that, he came out of this fire."
"Okay, so we stop him and kill him now."
