"Rachel."
Darien got startled, and quickly turned around to see the one called Samantha. Darien was looking for any evidence on in the kitchen that would reveal that he and Stephanos took over Rachel's and Paige's positions. "Uh...hey Sammy."
"Boy, nobody's called me that since the third grade.."she muttered, sitting down at the counter, laying her head on it. Darien panicked. 'Crap...need comeback..' He thought. "Uhhhhhh...well since we're in the past and all, I just thought it was appropriate. Don't mind me..I'm just feeling really jumpy and jovial since I saw mom..hee hee." He said, nervously.
Sam gave a small laugh. "Man Rach...You always find a way to make me smile." She said with a sigh. Darien lifted an eyebrow. It appeared that Sam was sad about something, so what would Rachel do in such a time like this? 'Ugh, she would comfort her. Great, now I have to play the bloody fairy godmother to Cinderella here...' He thought.
With a face of disgust, he went over to sit next to Sam and started patting her on the back. "There there..what's bugging you Sam?" he said, sarcasm taking over his tone. But Sam didn't seem to notice.
"You know, I've been worrying a lot about Alex." She muttered, burying her head in her arms. Darien thought for a moment. God, he couldn't remember who Alex was. Was it the big one? Or the small wimpy one. He took a guess. "Uh yeah, Alex. The tall, and muscular one...."
Sam laughed out loud. "HAHAHAHA!! Oh boy Rachel, you are soooooo mean some times. I think I know my brother, and he is ANYTHING but muscular. More like tall and lanky."
Darien sighed again. 'Another mistake made...so Alex is the small wimpy one. Boy this family is messed up..' he thought. "Just trying to make you laugh again Sam....ha ha ha." He said, with a fake laugh. Rolling his eyes in his ridiculous comment, he kept patting her back.
"Why are you worried about him anyway?" he asked. Sam sighed yet another sigh. "Since we've got here, he's been so happy, seeing mom and dad. But I mean, after we beat those stupid warlocks and kill them..."
'Bitch'
"I'm afraid he's never gonna let go of Mom and Dad. He'll be all depressed and sad when we get home....he won't get through life, blah blah blah....I dunno. I guess I'm just looking out for him that's all...I don't want him living this whole bad life..I want him to be happy. I think he was doing fine..but now all this is gonna make it worse."
"I'm sure it won't.."
"It's funny..He's always trying to like, please me. To make me feel better...like instead of my brother, he's like my royal servant or something...."
Darien thought a bit. He thought of Stephanos, and how he had been kind of hard on him lately. And how he saw that Stephanos was always trying to please him. Stephanos looked up to him for some reason...always showed that he loved him..
"Rachel? Rachel!" Sam said to Darien, waving her hand in his face. Darien looked up at Sam. "Oh..yeah...um..what was the question?" he asked in a panicky voice.
"I was asking how things went with your mom." She said. Suddenly, Darien noticed something at the side of his eye. Stephanos had blinked in, and he was in Paige's form. Stephanos saw Darien talking to Sam, and was giving him looks that said, "What do we do?" or "Do I kill her?"
Darien kept glancing to the left. He used his eyes to tell him to "Come in here and drive her off." When Stephanos finally got the message, he walked in and walked to the counter. Sam quickly looked to Stephanos. Stephanos had a nervous, sweaty look on his face. "Oh, hey Aunt Paige. I guess I'll leave you two....Later Rachel."
"Yeah, later Sam."
Finally, when Sam walked down to the basement, Darien went over and closed the door. He looked around to see if anybody was there or was coming down. Then, he went over to Stephanos and put his hands on his shoulder. "Are they secure?"
"Yes, they're back at the portal we made. All tied up with magic. And they could never get out."
"Very well done Stephanos."
"Of course Darien."
"So what are we gonna do now?" Stephanos asked, walking around with his hands in his pockets, looking for something to do. Darien sat down on a stool by the counter. "I think I have a plan."

Rachel opened her eyes slowly. She could feel that her eyes were itchy, and they we're probably getting puffy. Her eyes were open, but there was still blurryness. She gave a small groan, and she felt like she had been drugged. Then she noticed that she couldn't move her hands or her feet.
The room she was in was total darkness, except for the light that shone above her. It was like a big cave with a puddle of water in the corner. "Unh.." She muttered as she tried to see where she was. She suddenly felt someone in the back of her. "Huh?" She moved her head slightly in the opposite way, and saw a person on her back.
The woman's head was hanging down, and her hair was messed up. It was Paige. Rachel tried to tap or shake her with her stationary hands. "Mom....mom, wake up. Mom." She whispered as her voice cracked. She did this for some time, until she heard a slight groan from Paige. "Ugh..."
"Mom! Wake up..."
Paige's head flew up and she looked around, and noticed Rachel at her back. "Huh? Where the hell are we?" she asked. "I can't really remember what happened...ugh I feel terrible."
"Remember, the two warlocks that came into the kitchen, while we were making the potion? I think we got knocked out.."
"Well it's not the first time."
"Mom, what are we gonna do? Crap...Sam, CJ, Alex. They're probably in trouble."
"I'm trying to move." Paige said, the struggle in her voice. Paige sighed. "What am I doing? I could orb out of this...."she muttered as she slowly dematerialized into blue swirling lights. But it didn't work. They were still in the magical bindings. "Crap."
"I'm worried mom."
"I know honey...I know. I am too. Don't worry, We'll find a way to get out of here. Your cousins and Piper and Phoebe are going to be fine. And they're gonna find us. I promise." Paige said.
Even though Rachel was stuck in magical bindings, in another realm somewhere, somehow, the warmth of her mother's touch was just comforting to her. And she couldn't of felt any safer.
A/N: I know, this chapter's really short..still taking character polls. I'll probably try to get the next chap up tomorrow. Boy, a lot of people like CJ...
