Chapter Twenty-Nine ~ She's WHERE?
"Dan!" Piper said loudly, mostly out of surprise.
Dan was sitting perfectly while he levitated in the air. When he heard Piper, he opened his eyes and out of surprise and fear, he disappeared in a swirl of orbs. He reappeared and again, he was in midair, hovering over the bed.
When he realized what he was doing, he fell and landed with an "oomph" on the bed.
"What did I just do?"
"Levitated and orbed." Piper said with a grin.
"If I can orb, does that mean I can sense her too?" Dan asked. Piper didn't speak.
"Dan, you aren't Paige's white guidance or lighter. I don't know if you're sensing would work on her."
"You're right. All this time I've been wondering where she is; something would have came to me. I just feel so helpless."
"You aren't the only one." Piper said with a sigh. She sat down on the bed beside Dan and folded her hands in her lap.
"Do you think that it's possible to try and get your mom and Grams back to help us find Paige?"
"I don't know, Dan. I'm sure Grams will be furious at us for letting her say the spell, for letting her drink."
"What's wrong with Paige drinking? I know she's over twenty-one."
Piper licked her lips wondering if she should tell Dan, or let Paige tell him, if and when she came back.
"Paige wasn't too good at being a teenager." She said softly. "I mean, she was a delinquent. And after high school, she drank. A lot, actually. She had her share of parties and hangovers. I just, she can't handle her liquor very well anymore. She drank a daiquiri, and I know that to some people that that one drink isn't much, but to Paige it is. And she drank it. I think that's why she wrote the spell."
"I see." Dan paused. "I'd still like to call your mother and grandmother. I just want to see if they can help. Phoebe said that if you call Grams and ask her to find something in the Book of Shadows she'll flip the pages, but we tried that and it didn't work. Maybe she knows something that's not in the book."
"Okay." Piper grasped Dan's hand and walked out into the hallway. "Phoebe," she called down the stairs, "can you bring the Book of Shadows up to the attic, please?"
Piper and Dan went up to the attic, and Piper immediately set up the candles. Phoebe came into the room holding the book. Leo and Wyatt were hot on her tail.
"Piper, what's going on?" Leo asked.
"I'm summoning Mom and Grams. Dan and I think that they may be able to help us find Paige."
"Do you think that's a good idea?" Phoebe spoke, clutching the book tight in her arms.
"Well, we're kind of running out of choices aren't we? There isn't anything else that I can think of to do." Piper took in a deep breath.
"Okay." Phoebe said slowly. "Let's do it."
They opened the book to the right spell and Phoebe leaned down to light the candles that Piper had set out.
"Are we ready?" Phoebe nodded at Piper.
Leo and Dan stood back away from the two sisters.
Hear these words; hear my cry,
Spirits from the other side,
Come to me, I summon thee,
Cross now the great divide
In a swirl of lights, the two figures began to appear. It took a few seconds for them to fully become visible, but everyone waited patiently.
"Piper- what's wrong?" Patty asked. She knew that her daughters would never summon her unless it was important. "Where's Paige?"
"She's missing." Piper said softly.
"Oh dear." Penny said, putting her hand over her chest.
Penny and Patty stepped out of the candle lit circle and enveloped them in hugs.
Dan stared in wonder as he saw the transparent figures become solid. He wondered if he'd ever get used to the whole magic thing.
"Who's this?" Patty asked.
"Isn't this the man that you were courting before you married Leo?" Grams looked at Piper.
The oldest sister licked her lips and waved Dan over. He came to her slowly and held his hand out to Penny and Patty. They shook his hand with odd faces.
"Dan Gordon." He said politely.
"Dan, this is Mom and Grams. You can call them Mom and Grams." Phoebe laughed quietly at her sister. "Dan is dating Paige."
"And he knows about- you know?" Grams said.
"Yes, Grams." Leo said. "He's the baby's white guidance. It's a white lighter of sorts."
"You died?" Patty looked at Dan in question. "I'm terribly sorry. How did it happen?"
Dan laughed out loud.
"Um, no. I'm still alive. I haven't died yet." Grams and Patricia looked at him, confused. "I'm the seventh son." He shrugged.
"The elders have spoken of a new prophecy." Leo said. "A lot of catching up needs to be done. First, why don't you meet your grand son?"
Leo set his son in the arms of Wyatt's grandmother, and Patty squealed.
"A boy? We have a boy?" Piper smiled.
"I was just as surprised as you are." She bit her lip.
"What did you name him? Not Patrick, I hope." Grams said, taking a look at her great grand son.
"Wyatt Matthew. He's the next generation of Halliwells. That's why Dan is here. He's going to counsel Wyatt and tutor him, as he grows older. Teach him his powers and such. It's kind of a new breed. White guidance, I mean." Piper said.
"I see."
"He's just a doll, Piper." Patty said.
"Thank you."
"Um, I know this is a great reunion and all, but I really want to get Paige back." Dan said, stuffing his hands in his pockets.
"Of course you do, dear." Patty said, tapping Dan's shoulder. "Let's get to work then. What exactly happened?"
"She said a spell and it backfired." Phoebe said in a rush.
"Oh dear. How did it go? Did she write it herself?"
"Yeah. She wrote it. She said something about sending none younger and none older." Piper said.
"And a simple yes or no." Phoebe continued. "Something about showing her how it should be and to just let her see."
"Then she asked who was her only man, and if her heart belongs to Dan."
"Oh dear." Grams said.
"What? Do you know what happened?" Grams nodded silently.
"Yes, I think I do."
"Well?" Dan asked.
He didn't mean to be impatient. He just wanted his girlfriend back as soon as possible. He had to know how he could save her.
"She's in the future." Grams said with a shake of her hands.
"She's where?" Piper, Phoebe, Dan, and Leo said in unison.
"I'm afraid so."

Authors note: Yeah, yeah. I know that Grams saw Wyatt later on in season five, but this fits better in the story. And I like it this way. So, review! Tell me what you want to see next!
