Chapter 8

Piper and Phoebe both look at the new comer and Piper recognises her immediately "Phoebe!!" Future Phoebe looks up and smiles and says "Hey sis (she turns to Kellia) Hey you know better then this I of course will remember this, didn't you think I would work out what you were doing?" Kellia looks at her aunt and tears start running down her eyes "I just wanted to make things right, why would they give me this power if I can't change it". Phoebe and Kellia continue talking oblivious to Piper and Pheebs (Past Phoebe is now Pheebs).

Piper and Pheebs look on astonished and Pheebs says "Oh my god look at me, I look so much... older). Piper looks at her Phoebe then at the future one and notices how Pheebs has more of an innocence about her whereas Phoebe seems grown up with a hardness and a softness about her. Piper clears her throat "Don't mean to inerupt but Kellia here was about to tell us something important" Pheebs pulls Piper to her for a second and whispers n her ear "It just occurred to me that she may be a demon try ." Piper nods and does a little flick of her hands and obviously nothing happens. Phoebe smirks "Just like me to think I'm a demon. Don't like what you see do you. Well Losing loved ones and running can do that". Piper looks up and says "Well if your not happy why can't we prevent what is to be". Phoebe smiles and says "In all my years as a witch I have learnt a few things. One There is always a reason behind what they (she looks up) do. Two we don't always agree with it and sometimes there is a way around it but in the end it always works out eventually and finally three we aren't allowed to change the past for personal gain, it only ends up making it worse." She looks at Kellia and says "Especially when I suddenly have a 17 year old daughter instead of a baby" Kellia turns beat red and says "Oops". Piper looks at Pheebs and then a Phoebe and says "You have a daughter to who?"

Phoebe smiles and says "You know it is just like you. You are surprised at me for becoming mature but I had no choice (she has a glint of anger in her eye and one tear escapes her eyes) You all left me with your daughter. I had no choice. (she grabs Kellia and turns around to Piper. Pheebs has stayed quiet throughout this exchange)

Piper looks at Phoebe with tears and tells her "I don't see how this is my fault, this hasn't even happened yet, we can change it, we don't have to die". Phoebe gives her a sad smile and says "I wish. (she stops and shakes her head) You won't remember any of this, I can't risk anybody else dying, our life isn't so bad we can manage" She pulls something out of her pocket and Piper sees it is a little bag. Piper looks scared for a minute and tells her "Please before you do this can I hug Kellia one last time" Phoebe waves her hand at Kellia and nods, Kellia rushes to her mother.

Piper draws her into a hug and whispers in her ear "Write us a note to help us change this so that I don't die and I can have you, If it doesn't work know that I will always love you even after death." When they draw back they are both crying hard. Pheebs steps forward and says " Why can't we." She is stopped by Phoebe blowing dust in her face Phoebe smiles and says "Yeah I know" She turns to Piper and says "I always loved you and Prue and Paige you know". Piper envelops Phoebe in a hug. Phoebe leans out of the hug and blows dust in Piper's face and whispers "Goodbye sis".
