Paige looked around her in disbelief. Phoebe fainted after her premonition and was brought to her room to rest while Piper, well; she was still struggling even in her sleep.
Paige wanted to break down and cry when she realized that there was no one to help her and she had to help her sisters. But then, she had to decide against it. Paige got out of Piper's room and ran straight up to the attic and search the Book of Shadows for anything that might help… anything that can bring back her family together.
"Come on now Book of Shadows," Paige whispered to herself and the Book, "I need your help. My sisters need you and I can't live without my sisters. Just- just give me anything, whatever, just anything to help…" The Book of Shadows started to flip its pages by itself and stop by a page. A blank page, filled with nothing. Apparently, this was one of the pages that the family's magic hasn't reached, yet.
"What the hell is this supposed to mean?" Paige asked herself.
"It means you have your answer," someone said from Paige's back, "it's one thing that you find it and another to figure it out."
"Wha- hey. What are you doing here?" Paige asked as she spun around to see Icee standing behind her, smiling.
"Just looking if someone helped you already. And I guess someone already did."
"Really? Well, there's nothing here so I assume no one's helped me yet."
"Nope. Something's in there. You just need to see it."
"You wanna tell me I need glasses? I'd rather wear contact lenses."
"Your eyes are perfectly fine, Paige." Icee said as she rolled her eyes, "but your heart may need a little bit of clearing up to do."
"Care to explain that more, coz' see I'm not really in the 'I have to figure this thing out' mode." Paige retorted rather sarcastically.
"Well, I've told you everything about it. You'll figure it out. It has to do with your heart, your mind and maybe a little bit more of that Halliwell magic that you have."
"This is ridiculous. Just go straight will ya? I'm gonna go nuts if you keep doing this."
"I've told you everything. That's the straightest idea I could give you. Look, if you don't have any idea what it is, go downstairs, drink up some coffee maybe that should get your head running."
"I still don't get you." Paige said rather disapprovingly, "how's a cup of coffee supposed to help me?"
"Go figure."
Paige slumped back on the attic's sofa and eyed Icee as she orbed out.
'Maybe a coffee should do the trick.' Paige thought as she stood up and went downstairs for a cup.

Paige sat down on the kitchen counter drinking coffee and found herself thinking too much about what Icee just told her.
"It has to do with your heart, your mind and maybe a little bit more of Halliwell magic that you have." These words just kept playing again and again inside Paige's head. 'How am I supposed to figure that out?' Paige thought, 'the book showed me a blank page and now I have to deal with weird riddle issues. And here I thought drinking a cup of coffee would help.' She drained out her coffee cup and brought it to the sink.
"Come to think of it," Paige told herself, "I should be working on that issue right now." She flopped herself down in front of the couch and looked up, "Hey! I am so sorry about the personal gain issue thing here, but I'm really desperate. Book of Shadows!" Paige called as the Book orbed itself into Paige's hands. As soon as she set down the book beside her on the couch, it opened itself back to the blank page just like what happened earlier.
"Ugh. I probably need a spell and Phoebe's knocked out," Paige said, as she stared at the Book, "and Piper's good with potions and fire power, well I don't need that right now so that's off." Paige looked beside her and saw two pictures sitting on top of the couch's end table. It was a picture of Piper, Phoebe and Paige together and a picture of Prue, Piper and Phoebe together. Paige got the picture and touched the glass that showed the picture of Prue. She smiled and whispered to herself, "Maybe I need Prue. Maybe I need my big sister." Then the pages of the Book of Shadows began to glow and show the words Paige haven't seen before.
