Chapter 22
Izzy woke up suddenly. It was late at night and she still lay in her mother's old room. She had fallen asleep crying and she still felt the after effects of crying so hard. But that didn't concern her at the moment. She frowned as she looked around the room slightly confused, she knew where she was and when she was so that wasn't what had confused her. What had confused her so much was her dream...or was it a dream? It was more like a premonition of a past event...only it wasn't a past event...it was more like a past event that was about to take place that hadn't originally taken place. In her dream she had seen her mom and aunts get killed by Gideon and he then killed baby Wyatt. That definitely hadn't happened in the original timeline, which had to have meant it was going to happen in the one being written because of what she and Chris had done. And if it did happen then she, Chris or Wyatt for that matter wouldn't exist anymore at all.
She quickly got out of the bed and ran to the hallway. She looked around remembering that there was a chance she wasn't entirely alone. The door to Piper's old room stood open a crack and she peeked in. There Chris lay sleeping as well. She hesitated, should she wake him and tell him what she had seen? No. He already believed there was nothing they could do after what Wyatt had said. Cautiously she made her way up to the attic. It was exactly as she had left it hours before, only Wyatt and Chris were no longer there. The triquatra drawn on the wall by Bianca so long ago was still there. She looked around thinking, Wyatt was gonna kill her if she did this, but if she didn't they would have no future at all. Letting out breath she had been unaware she was keeping in, she approached the wall. She had to do this, no matter what, or they would all be dead.
Izzy knew she didn't have the power to activate the portal on her own like Wyatt did, so she closed her eyes concentrating, trying hard to remember the spell. She opened her eyes and again let out her breath, then recited:
"Hear these words, hear the rhyme,
Heed the hope within my mind.
Send me back to where I'll find,
What I wish in place and time."
The portal opened and she looked back one last time at the attic, then Izzy turned and stepped through. Had she waited but a moment longer, she would've been stopped by one of Wyatt's demons, who had been appointed to watch over the portal just in case, shimmered in just as she stepped through.

Phoebe was about to head downstairs to see how Piper and Paige were coming with the potion. The spell hadn't proven easy to write at all; in fact she was still working on it. Suddenly the far wall glowed and caught Phoebe's eye. She looked back at it as her daughter stepped through. Phoebe dropped her sheet of paper and ran over to Isabelle. Throwing her arms around her daughter Phoebe said, "Oh thank God, I was so worried! I thought you and Chris had lost all hope, but you're back! Don't worry; we'll save you all honey before it's too late."
"Mom—"
"Piper and Paige are downstairs right now working on a—"
"Mom!" Izzy shouted pushing Phoebe off her.
"What is it sweetie? Where's Chris?" Phoebe asked confused and finally realizing Chris wasn't there with her.
"Chris...doesn't know I'm here...you can't do what you're planning to do." She replied.
"What do you mean?" Phoebe asked frowning.
"I had a dream....a premonition...I don't know, the point is I saw you and Piper and Paige all die by his hands and then he killed Wyatt. That's why I came back, I can't let that happen, because then-"
"There won't be a future for any of you." Phoebe finished realizing what she was saying. "Come on, let's go tell Piper and Paige." Phoebe said as she grabbed Izzy's hand and headed downstairs.

Piper and Paige looked up to see Phoebe walking into the kitchen with Izzy close behind her. They both dropped what they had been holding and rushed over to hug Izzy at the site of her. As her two aunts nearly attacked her with hugs Izzy heard words of "Oh thank God" and "We were so worried."
"Guys I'm fine really I am." She said pushing them off her. Izzy looked at each one of them and then said, "You can't do this."
"We can't do what honey?" Paige asked.
"Go after Gideon like this. I had a premonition...dream...something and if you guys do this you're gonna die and none of it would matter because if you die, we all die."
"Well now we've got something you're premonition didn't honey." Phoebe said.
"What?"
"You, because you came back. We aren't alone anymore."
Izzy looked at all of them. Could she really do this? They all needed saving now not just Wyatt, she had no choice. She sighed, "What have ya got?" she asked.
"Well Paige and I were coming up with a potion with that water Chris brought us and Phoebe was working on a spell." Piper said followed by a yawn from Paige. The yawn triggered a chain reaction, it was followed by one from Phoebe then Piper.
"When was the last time you all slept?" she asked. The girls remained quiet and Izzy glanced at the clock. 4:35 it read and it was still pitch black outside. "Alright all of you go to bed."
"Hey I'm the mother!" Phoebe protested, "Not the other way around, I tell you to go to bed."
"Sorry mom but I can't be much help unless I've got three awake witches. I'll take care of the potion and work on the spell, you guys need some sleep."
"But what if Wyatt comes back again for you? We can't be much help if that happens." Piper said.
Izzy remained quiet for several seconds before responding, "Chris wouldn't let him do anything to me. I'll be fine, just go to bed. Remember you two need the sleep for me and Chris." She smiled.
"I may be pregnant, but I don't feel like it!" Piper said.
"Yeah..." Phoebe said.
Izzy smiled, "The morning sickness will come soon enough and you know it. It's only been a few days." Reluctantly the girls finally went up to bed. They needed it, Izzy had made no mistakes about that. She sighed as she looked around the kitchen...she prayed she was right that Chris had her back when it came to Wyatt. He wasn't gonna be happy he had just gotten her back only to lose her again. Maybe Gideon could be stopped....maybe....
She started working on the potion that was half way finished. Part of her wondered where Leo was but then she remembered her final words to him, it was better that he wasn't around she decided. She didn't want to have to face that mess now.
a/n: Still taking any spell suggestions or ideas you guys might have!!! Please help me out here, I really want it to be good, I've gotten a few but not nearly as many as I was hoping for.
