'Piper dear, you're needed. I know you're worried about Paige, but unless you find her younger self,
She will be in a lot more danger. You may never meet her in the future.' Grams quietly told the
distraught Piper who now lay with her head on the kitchen table in despair.
'I barely got through the pain the first time. I don't think I can take I again' Piper replied in a muffled
voice.
That is why you need to start by saving the Paige from now, then we can focus on the Paige from yourtime.'
Piper sighed and got up, knowing Grams was right. She strode into the living room where Phoebe was
holding Paige's hand trying to reassure the almost comotose woman. Paige was obviously in a lot of pain.
Piper was thankful Paige was almost unconsious; she would feel less of the pain. Their younger
counterparts huddled together in an attempt to make themselves feel secure.
'Phoebe, your premonition, what time of day was it?' Piper asked.
'Errrr… Night, I'm pretty sure. Why?'
'I need to get Paige here, but her foster parents are hardly going to let me just take her, therefore I have
a plan.'
'Care to share?'
'I'll go to their hose, cast a spell so her parents and everyone else believes she is still there, then take
the real Paige.'
'2679 Harley road' Paige murmured from her restless sleep. 'I live there….Go….I'll be fine'
'I'll stay here with Grams and the girls. I just hope Leo comes soon.' Phoebe told mostly herself as
Piper left to find Paige.
'Grams, how far did you get with the protection?' Phoebe finally asked, after seem like an age
waiting for Piper and the 9-year-old Paige.
'I've already discussed this with Piper, wee came up with using the Crystals and creating a protection circle.' Grams answered
'Of course. I can't believe I didn't think of that! Some Witches we are. Come back in time and then
realise we could really done with a few days planning. I'll go get them; in the attic right?'
Grams nodded in agreement. Phoebe returned after a few minutes with the box that contained six white
crystals. Grams and Phoebe each took three and carefully placed them around the room at equal points.
The last one went in place and the field enclosed them.
'What is that?' Prue asked in awe; having not seen magic before.
'Magic' Piper replied breathlessly, her voice also in awe of what they just saw.
They were brought rudely back to reality as ragged breaths cane from Paige. Phoebe dashed over to her
side, taking Paige's hand into her own. Grams stayed back holding Piper, Prue and Phoebes in a tight
embrace, all four hoping Paige would be alright.
'LEO! I KNOW YOU CAN HERE ME, I AM ONE OF YOUR CHARGES SO I KNOW YOU CAN!
GET DOWN HERE NOW, SHE NEEDS IMMEDIATE HEALING. PAIGE IS DYING. THE FACT
SHE IS DYING FROM THE POISON IN THE ARROW SHOULD TELL YOU SHE IS PART
WHITELIGHTER. IF SHE DIES, THE CHARMED ONES WILL DIE. Please come' Phoebe shouted
in desperation, her voice failing at the last few words.
Moments passed and everyone held their breath for Leo to come, even those who had no idea who Leo
was. Just as they gave up hope, the familiar blue light of someone orbing appeared outside the crystal
cage.
'Leo!' Phoebe cried in delight and surprise.
The tall blond man looked in surprise at the speaker, then recognising her answered 'Phoebe? But your
grown up?'
'Yeah I'm from the future and the future Paige needs you very badly to heal her. She is dying from
Darklighter poison.' Phoebe walked over to the edge of the cage and removed the crystal, allowing Leo to enter.
'What took you so long? We've been calling you for hours' Phoebe asked as Leo began healing Paige.
'The Elders wouldn't let me come. They said it was a trap, but after the speech you made, they decided
you were for real and I could come.'
Paige groaned as she slowly opened her eyes. 'Leo?'
'Yeah, I'm Leo. I'm guessing you're a future charge and not a current one since I don't believe we've
met.'
'She is, but you can't mention anything about her to the Elders or the timeline will be severely
damaged. ' Phoebe hurriedly told him as she helped Paige up.
'So your our Whitelighter? What is a Whitelighter?' Piper asked walking up to Leo.
'I'm your Guardian Angel Piper, and yours Prue and Phoebe, but you probably won't see me again. At
least, not for a while.' Leo smiled at his young charges then orbed out again.
'I'm back people and incoming! Warlock alert he's right behind us.' Piper shouted as she bolted
through the front door and into the living room closely followed by a younger girl who looked
remarkably like Paige.
'Quick, Paige go over by the older lady and three other girls!' the older Paige told herself as the girl
stepped in front of Piper.
The young Paige did as she was told.
'Crystal' Paige called, orbing a crystal and placing it halfway down the living room, she did the same
again and the crystal cage was completed. At the same time the doors flew open once more, revealing a
tall dark man. His face was incredibly pale against his black hair, while the rest of his features stood
prominently on his face.
His black cloak covered a black shirt and dark trousers. Upon seeing the Charmed ones faces, he
glowered at them.
'Who are you people? I was told killing the Charmed ones before they got their powers would be easy
yet you always seem to be there when I try to kill them. I guess you will have to die too!' The Warlock
smiled at the end of his small speech, as though the thought had only just crossed his mind.
'You can try, but you know the death threats really do loose their power after the millionth time you've
heard them' Piper told the Warlock mockingly.
'We're the Charmed ones and your about to see why you should never cross us' Phoebe menacingly
added after Piper.
All three Charmed ones stepped into defensive postures. The Warlock smiled and raised an open hand
palm up. A fireball slowly grew on it. The warlock threw the fireball…
