Disclaimer: Ok, since I forgot to put this in earlier, I don't own Charmed(yet) but I do own this story and Katie and Melinda and anyone else you don't recognize(which isn't a lot). So please don't steal my story. I've spent a lot of time with it and it makes me mad when people steal from me. Ask if you want to borrow a character or part of the story. Usually I say yes, and am flattered, not angry.
Chapter seven: They're here
"Piper!" Phoebe called coming from her bedroom.
Piper appeared in the doorway a couple doors down, "What?"
"What are you making for breakfast, cause whatever it is, it smells great."
Piper stared at Phoebe, "I'm not making breakfast."
Paige came out of her room across the hall from Phoebe, "You have to be, you're the only one in the house who can cook."
"Guys, I'm standing right next to you, I can't be making breakfast." Piper said, annoyed.
"Who is then?" Phoebe wandered, heading downstairs. Paige and Piper shrugged, and followed. Phoebe stopped at the base of the stairs, "What if it's a demon?"
"That makes us breakfast, Phoebe?" Paige asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Well, it could be like the old witch that eats people after making them fat and that's what she's doing right now." Phoebe explained and Piper and Paige bit off laughter. Phoebe gave them a look and grabbed an umbrella from the coat rack. "It's always good to have a weapon."
"Honey, we're the Charmed Ones, I think we can handle whoever it is without an umbrella." Piper tried to take the umbrella from Phoebe.
Phoebe pulled away, "Tell that to your son when he's fifteen." Piper looked at the ground, knowing what Phoebe meant. They were the Charmed Ones in the future and they still were killed. "Oh Piper, I didn't mean it like that."
"I know, but maybe you're right," Piper grabbed another umbrella. Paige rolled her eyes and did the same. Quietly, the three sisters tiptoed towards the kitchen. Paige accidentally bumped into the wall, and Piper and Phoebe jumped.
"Sorry," Paige whispered as the other two turned around again. The kitchen was quiet, only the sound of something dripping came from in there.
"1...2...3... now!" Phoebe yelled, running into the kitchen, umbrella high. Piper and Paige followed, then stopped running into Phoebe.
"Pheebs, why'd you stop?" Piper asked.
"That's why," Phoebe gestured to Katie eating what looked like waffles at the counter. She hadn't even looked up when the sisters came running into the kitchen with umbrellas as their weapons.
"Katie," Paige said, lowering her umbrella.
Katie looked up and almost chocked on her waffle, "What's with the umbrellas?" "Nevermind," Piper mumbled, setting hers by the back door. Phoebe and Paige did the same.
"Want some?" Katie gestured to the waffles, pancakes, toast, sausage, and other breakfast food items. "I made plenty."
"These are wonderful!" Phoebe exclaimed, reaching for another waffle. "Where'd you learn to cook like this?"
"When you live in a house with two men who can't cook worth a damn, you learn to make yourself your own food." Katie replied, taking another bite.
"I can cook," Chris protested, coming in.
"Yeah, cereal and maybe mac and cheese," Katie teased. Chris gave her a smirk and grabbed a piece of toast. It seemed that the fight between them had all been forgotten and forgiven. Katie wanted to ask how it went with Leo but knew Chris would only tell her when he wanted.
"Delicious, as always," He commented, grabbing a couple other things. Katie smiled, and went back to her breakfast. "I've got to go check up on some stuff." Before anyone got a word in, he orbed out.
"Where does he go?" Piper wondered.
"I have no idea," Katie answered, "It's what he does."
"So do you want to explain sleep orbing to me?" Phoebe asked. Piper glared at her and Paige jabbed her in the ribs. "What? I want to know."
"It's fine," Katie interrupted Piper and Paige, "It happens a lot to whitelighters and people with whitelighter blood in them. You have a bad dream and you orb. I guess you could call it a kind of sleep walking. I only do it when I have the dream."
"What dream?"
"Phoebe," Piper hissed, harshly. "Shut up."
Katie ignored Piper's comment, "The dream I have of that night when you all died." She looked down for a moment, then got up. "I'm gonna go wash up."
"Phoebe, can you ever just shut up?" Paige asked, after Katie had left.
"She seemed fine about it."
"No she didn't." Paige countered, "You're just mad that my daughter turned out good and yours didn't."
"Paige, take that back," Phoebe warned.
"Are you gonna make me?" Paige challenged.
"Yeah, I think I will..."
"Enough!" Piper snapped, "Don't make me repeat last night."
Phoebe and Paige went back to their breakfast, glaring daggers at each other the entire time. Piper pretended not to notice.
Piper paced the length of her bedroom, checking her watch for the hundredth time. She'd called for Chris at least a half hour ago and he was ignoring her. Sighing Piper yelled, "Leo!"
Seconds later, Leo orbed into their room, "Piper, is this important? Ever since I quit being an elder, they've given me an overload of charges and I'm in the middle of helping one."
"You bet your ass it's important. Your son is ignoring me."
Leo tried not to look annoyed, "Chris?"
"No, I think it's Wyatt." Piper replied sarcastically, "Yes of course Chris."
"Well, you know how he is," Leo tried to explain, then heard that familiar jingle. Looking to the ceiling, he added, "I have to go. See you later."
"Bye," She sounded a little disappointed when he left. Baby Chris started to cry a little, "I'm coming." Walking to the nursery, she added, "At least one Chris still needs me."
"I hope you don't mind me borrowing some clothes."
Phoebe shook her head, "Nah, Paige does it all the time. It's kinda like the same thing."
Katie smiled and nodded, "You really wanted me to be your daughter, didn't you?" She asked suddenly.
Phoebe looked up, and thought about the question for a moment, "Yeah, I guess I kinda did. And from what I hear, my daughter doesn't really turn out all that great."
"Just cause I don't like her doesn't mean she isn't a good witch." Katie tried to make Melinda sound like a better person but failed miserably.
"You don't have to make her sound like a little angel. She's obviously not." Katie was about to say something when they heard a crash from upstairs in the attic. "What in the name?" Katie grabbed Phoebe's arm and orbed them into the attic.
"I heard a crash." Piper said, running into the attic, holding baby Chris.
"Paige," Phoebe said suddenly. Everyone looked at Paige, covered in dust and coughing.
"I'm fine," Paige coughed.
"What the hell happened?" Piper asked.
"I was working on a potion when this vortex looking thing opened and this two people walked through. One of them threw me into a pile of dusty stuff. I'm fine though." Paige coughed again and dusted herself off.
Katie frowned, "What did the two people look like?"
"Um, well, the guy had this long curly blonde hair and was kind of tall and the girl had really short black hair and was really short, why?"
Katie didn't answer Paige instead she yelled, "Chris! Come here now!"
"What?" Chris asked impatiently, orbing in, "I'm here. I'm here. Geez, a guy can't even go do stuff alone without someone yelling for him every five minutes." No one said anything, instead he was met with four glares. "What?"
"Chris, I think Wyatt and Melinda are here, in the past." Katie said quietly.
"This place is sickening." Melinda complained, again.
"Shut up, Melinda. Don't make me send you back." Wyatt threatened, stopping a car and throwing out the driver. "Get in," He nodded to the car. Melinda mocked him for a couple seconds before getting in.
"What are we doing here anyway? We don't need them."
Wyatt stepped on the gas and the car roared off down the street. "That's what you think, my dear stupid little cousin."
Melinda glared at him, "With them in the past, we don't have any threats in the future and you decide all of the sudden we have to go to the past and fetch those two."
"What you fail to realize, Melinda, is that Chris and Katie are as much as a threat now in the past as they were in the future." Wyatt replied emotionless, and running a red light.
"What do you plan on doing? Can you at least tell me that?" Melinda complained.
"You'll see tonight at the manor." Wyatt answered with an evil looking grin. Melinda laughed with joy causing him to chuckle.
A/N: MWAHAHA! I bring back more people from future! And they do have a place in the story, so it's not just because I had a wierd need to bring people back some more.
A/N 2: Okay, to the Katie/Paige moment thing. I have a few kind of short ones so far and am planning on another but I just can't seem to place any more. But I'll work on it I swear!
A/N 3: "Press me and review!" The button's still talking and it'll forever talk until you review!
