Paige was shackled to the floor of the basement, completely unaware of Phoebe and Leo.
Phoebe nudged Leo and quietly whispered, "Does she even know we're even here?"
"Uh," Leo replied, "Stay back here, let me make sure she's okay first." Leo turned back, "As in she won't try to kill you."
Leo hesitated, and took a few steps towards Paige, while Phoebe nodded her head stupidly, agreeing with his plan.
"Paige?" Leo questioned.
He knelt beside Paige, and gently touched her shoulder.
"Paige?" He asked again.
Paige lifted her head up and glared angrily at Leo. "How could you?" She spat.
Leo looked up at Phoebe, startled, "What?"
Paige narrowed her eyes, "Just change back to your true form – the game's up. And who is your lackey, now, huh?" Is it dear old Piper?"
Paige wearily lifted her head in Phoebe's direction. Her eyes grew wide. "What?" She squeaked.
She then looked at Leo, shock evident on her face. Leo moved closer to her, and put his hands over the gash in her forehead. A healing glow emitted from his hands, healing her wound.
Paige looked gratefully at Leo as he began to release her from the shackles. A small smile crossed her face. "Thank you."
Leo bowed his head a little, and then in a strained voice, said, "I am so sorry I didn't realize that the Paige upstairs wasn't you."
Paige waved Leo off and then gave Phoebe a sideways glance, not fully trusting her.
She whispered urgently to Leo, "Did – is – she here to hurt me? I –I don't understand."
A small smile appeared at the corners of Leo's mouth, "No."
He motioned for Phoebe to come to them. Phoebe took a shaky step forward as Paige shrunk back a little.
"Paige," Phoebe hesitated, "I'm not the real Phoebe…" Paige looked alarmed as Phoebe rushed, "Not from this dimension, anyway. I promise I'm good. Try to… call for my heart… Nothing will happen."
Paige uncertainly held out her hand, and gave Phoebe a wary look.
"Heart," she called. Phoebe continued to stay standing as Paige stuttered, "How is that possible? You - ?"
Paige cocked her head to the left.
"I'm the Phoebe before the twins."
A faraway look crossed Paige's face, as Leo finished healing Paige's cuts and bruises.
"Leo!!" A strangled cry filled the air as Piper screamed in fear.
