A/N: Enjoying these tons of reviews, I'll try and update again soon!

She ended up back at the club. Grams didn't look at all surprised to see her and Marie didn't seem phased by the whole 'appearing in another place' thing.

Paige kneeled gently by her daughter. 'Are you scared?'

'I know you,' the little girl answered. 'I dream about you.'

That was new. Paige turned to Grams in concern. 'What is she talking about?'

Grams frowned. 'Marie, do you know who Paige is?'

'My mommy.'

A bright light behind her signified an orb.

'Paige?' Chris said quietly. 'I think you should come home.'

'Do you know?' Paige asked without looking at him.

'I know from the future,' he said. 'But I've just been down to the Underworld and there's a full-out strike planned.'

'What about Marie?'

'We'll be fine.' Grams put in. 'Go.'

It was awful leaving her daughter behind but it was necessary, it was her future she was fighting for. There was so much to sort out, like how did Marie know Paige was her mother and how to work everything out with her sisters- there were bound to be endless explanations required.

Paige and Chris arrived in the attic seconds before her sisters and Andy. There was no time for anything other than a quick glance though as a circle of warlocks blinked in leaving no escape route.

Piper blew one up while the other four took a warlock each. Fists and feet flew all around, the warlock Paige was battling looked high-up... and he was wearing a star around his neck!

The star! The star was the key. 'Star!' she shouted and, as it materialised in her hand, the remaining warlocks exploded in balls of fire.

Phoebe twirled round in a full circle. 'What happened?'

'This happened.' Paige held up the star.

'I'll take it up there.' Chris grabbed it and orbed out evidently wanting to avoid getting involved in a family squabble.

'I've gotta go.' Paige started to orb but was grabbed by Piper. 'What?'

'Can you give me a ride?' her sister asked.

'Not a problem.'

Grams made herself scarce when they reached the club and, for a moment, Paige and Piper watched their children play quietly together.

'Why didn't you tell me?' Piper asked softly.

'It was a long story.' Paige answered.

'We vanquished the faction,' Piper smiled. 'We've got time.'

'Alright,' Paige breathed in deeply. 'I met a guy when I was out drinking, I didn't know him, probably wouldn't recognise him again.'

'It's alright,' Piper said squeezing her arm. 'I know you went through a bad patch.'

'I came off the drink through the pregnancy but when she was born, I knew I couldn't cope with her so I did the right thing.'

'You got yourself sorted out though.' Piper reminded her.

'Are you mad at me?' Paige asked shakily.

'No!' Piper exclaimed. 'I just want you to be happy, Paige.'

A thought suddenly struck Paige. 'What did you say to Carol Walsh at the centre?'

Piper grimaced. 'That Marie had run off and she'd missed it all.'

'I better get her back.' Paige sighed.

'What are you going to do?' Piper asked. 'In the long term?'

'Get her back.'
