A/N: As usual I love my reviewers, hopefully this is getting a bit better, I hate the first chapters where you have to explain everything but now I'm more than half-way through, not really long left...

The group quickly rose to their feet- all except Andy, he merely glanced in Paige's general direction.

Piper was the first to speak; 'Did you get Marie back alright?'

'She's fine,' Paige said. 'I'm going again in the morning.'

'That's great, Paige.' Piper smiled.

'Oh, yeah,' Phoebe scoffed. 'Just great!'

'Phoebe!' Piper elbowed her sister.

'No, Piper,' Phoebe shouted. 'I need to know if there're any more little secrets waiting to come out of the woodwork.'

'There aren't.' Paige insisted.

'How do we know that?' Andy asked.

'Andy, stay out of this.' Leo warned.

'They deserve to know the truth, Leo.' Andy reasoned.

'Phoebe,' Paige said, addressing her sister and not the whitelighter who seemed determined to turn her family against her. 'I'm sorry I didn't tell you about Marie, I didn't tell anyone.'

'I don't think I can trust you, Paige,' Phoebe told her. 'That was one hell of a thing to leave out of the family history!'

'You have to trust her, Phoebe,' Chris said quickly. 'Wyatt's future depends on it.'

Phoebe shook her head. 'We can protect Wyatt without her.'

'You can't, Phoebe!' Chris shouted. 'You couldn't in the future.'

'Let's just all calm down.' Leo said.

That was easy for him to say, Paige thought angrily, he wasn't the one under attack.

Piper sat down wearily. 'What are we gonna do?'

'I can't work with her anymore, Piper.' Phoebe sighed.

'Wait, work with me?' Paige burst in. 'I'm only here for Charmed duties, is that it?'

'Face it, Paige,' Phoebe said. 'If we hadn't needed you for the power of three, we'd never have tracked you down.'

'Phoebe!' Piper and Leo shouted in unison but the damage had been done.

It was as she had always feared. Ever since she'd first found her sisters she'd worried she was just a replacement for Prue, Piper had treated her like that at first but they'd got over it.

Maybe it would have been better if it had been Piper doing all the doubting, all the hating, Piper had been close to Prue, a lot closer than Phoebe had seemed to be but it was like Andy had stirred up the sisterly bond she'd had with Prue, it could even be the guilt of not having got on with her eldest sister causing her to do what Andy wanted.

Either way, it was clear whose side Phoebe was on.

'Well,' Paige said shakily. 'If you don't need me, I better be going.'

'Wait, Paige,' Piper stood up again. 'Where're you going?'

'Anywhere but here.' Paige answered with tears pricking at her eyes.

'I wouldn't try Richard's place,' Andy said smoothly. 'I went over there earlier and filled him in on the whole situation.'

Piper turned on him in anger. 'You did what?!'

'I just told him the truth.'

'It wasn't your place!'

Paige turned from all of the noise and escaped the growing shouting. Chris and Leo had joined in on Piper's side while Phoebe was standing by Andy.

Her head was swimming as she climbed the stairs to her room. She needed to get out of the manor, there was no question about that, but where could she go? Andy had cut off everyone she could go to for help, she was alone.

If she couldn't stay at the manor there as only one place she could go- Richard's mansion.

It was a long shot considering the poisonous version of events her boyfriend had probably received from Andy but it was her last hope.
