Chapter 6:

(6)(6)

Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by, I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain, and harder to climb

(6)(6)

"Guys, what the heck are we doing here?" Trish asked. The triplets had gotten themselves off the floor, and were rubbing their aching parts that were hurt in the fall. Mel had a calm Roxi in her arms, and a frightened Peyton and terrified Haleigh grabbing on her legs. Chris and Wyatt were just slowly backing away from everyone, not wanting to incur the wrath of their younger sisters, especially the oldest of them. "That is a good question." Mel said through gritted teeth, glaring at her brothers. If looks could kill, then Chris and Wyatt would have been dead. "We didn't mean to!" the two said in unison, slinking further away from their furious younger sister.

"What are you talking about?" Charlie asked, looking at her three oldest siblings with a deep curiosity. "Well, your moronic brothers here," Mel said, indicating Wyatt and Chris, "Made a spell and potion that sent all of us back in time." "It was your idea!" Chris said defensively. "Yeah, but I didn't create the stuff that sent us back!" Mel responded. "Why were you trying to go back in time?" the bewildered triplets said in unison. "To save... someone." Wyatt said, eyeing the twins. When the triplets looked oddly at him, he mouthed 'uncle'. They just nodded, and Alex began to get a little teary-eyed. "Oh, it's okay, honey." Mel said, beckoning Alex over. She ran over, cuddling into her older sister's now occupied arm. Trish and Charlie came over as well, leaning against their older sister. The boys, seeing that Mel couldn't use her powers against them now, came over behind the group.

Just as they became a huddled mass, the attic door burst open. Everyone looked at the door. There, in the doorway, stood the surprised and motionless Piper, Phoebe, Paige, and Leo.

T:T:T

After a moment of staring at each other, Mel said "I can't handle this!" and threw up her hand. Everyone in the room froze. Well, everyone except Mel, Piper, and Alex. Piper looked at her sisters and ex-husband, stunned. She stepped in front of Phoebe. "Hello? Phoebe? Are you there?" she asked, frantically waving her hand in front of her younger sister's face. "It won't work." said a voice from behind her. Piper turned to face the only other two people not frozen, Mel and Alex. By then, Mel had put Roxi down and pulled the twins off her legs. "Who the hell are you?" she asked, looking frightened at the two. She had never met anyone who could freeze good witches before. "That's a good question. But, a better one is: How are your children doing?" Mel said with an evil smirk.

Piper felt as if someone had ripped her heart out. She immediately began fearing for her sons' lives. She looked back at her sisters and Leo, and then looked back at the two girls in front of her. She didn't want to leave her family alone with these... whoever they were, but she wanted to make sure her sons were safe. After a short moment, her maternal instincts told her what choice to make, and she left the attic and headed down the stairs.

After Piper was out of earshot, Alex turned to Mel and asked "What did you do that for?" "Well, I had to say SOMETHING to get her out of here so we could talk." Mel said defensively. She then waved her hand, and Wyatt and Chris immediately unfroze. They looked around, startled at the sudden change in scenery. Then, they both realized what happened. "Mel!" Chris said, annoyed, "You froze time again!" "How observant of you." Mel replied sarcastically. "Something else you need to observe is that you two didn't bring all of us back to the time our uncle died. You brought us years back. Nine years, at least!" Mel fumed. "You two were completely irresponsible! You messed this whole thing up! You-"

Mel stopped there. She then dropped her voice and said "You allowed us to see our mother again." Alex turned to her then, her eyes beginning to water. "Our... our mother? She's here?" she asked quietly. She had never met her mother before. Mel turned to her little sister, her own eyes beginning to water. She just stroked her little sister's short brown hair, and smiled. "Yeah, that was mom, the one who didn't freeze." Mel said, her voice strained a bit. "But," Wyatt said, getting into protective older brother mode. "Mom's here, and she doesn't look pregnant. That means that the triplets don't exist yet." "That means that we're at least ten years back." Chris said, his voice emotionless. 'Now is not the time to cry.' he thought. "We better see who exists." he added. "But, how do we do that?" Wyatt asked. "First, we do this." Mel said, and waved her hand yet again.

Trish and Charlie unfroze. They looked around, seeing everything different. "Alex, this is so not fair! You don't freeze!" Charlie said jokingly. She and her sister then noticed the look on their fellow triplet's face. "What's wrong? What happened? What did we miss?" Trish asked quickly. Wyatt came up to them, since Mel was busy with Alex. "Mom's here, and alive." he said, looking into their eyes, which immediately began to water. "Mom?" Charlie asked in a very quiet voice. Wyatt just nodded sadly. "Okay, down to business." Chris said. Emotions rarely got in his way, and this was no exception. "We have to figure out who exists." he said. "How do we do that?" Wyatt asked. "Try to use our powers." all four girls said at once. "How did you... never mind." Wyatt said. Far be it for him to question the wacky minds of his little sisters. "Okay, let's try it." Mel said, getting back on track. All six of them tried to orb, or glimmer, to the other side of the room. A few seconds later, a figure appeared on the other side of the room, followed closely by two more figures.

The triplets looked over at their older siblings, who were still on the other side of the room. "Looks like you guys exist." Charlie said, stating the obvious. "Let's hope you didn't mess up on the power potion too, Chris." Mel said smartly. "Oh, hardy har har." Chris said sarcastically. "Okay, enough you two. Mel, you have the potion and spell, right?" Wyatt asked. Mel nodded and took the said items out of her pockets. She handed a vial to each of the boys and kept one for herself. "Okay, we drink this, then say the spell." she directed. They all drank the liquid in their vials and said:

Out of place
Out of time
Help me take back
What is mine

Whitelighter powers
Witch as well
Take them to
The correct Halliwell

Little lights were created during the spell, and they descended into the three siblings. "Did it work?" Wyatt asked. A nearby vase and book both exploded, and Chris and Mel both nodded. "I guess you're right." Wyatt said, looking at the remanints of the recently destroyed items. "Of course we are. Now-"

"Chris!" Mel was interrupted by Piper's shout. She had come back from checking on her sons, and immediately noticed the older version of her youngest son. All six kids looked at each other as their mother ran over and hugged a very confused Chris. When she pulled away, she took a good look at him. "You look younger." she said, tilting her head to the side. "Um, whatever you say, mom." Chris said, his voice not masking the fact that he was surprised and happy at the same time. "Chris!" Wyatt and Mel yelled at the same time. They didn't want their family to know that they were family. "What? She already knew who I was!" Chris said defensively, putting his hands up in the air.

Piper then looked over at the only other moving male in the room. "And you must be Wyatt." she said, smiling. She saw that her kids were turning in to handsome young men. "Uh, yeah." Wyatt said, surprised his mother had guessed who he was as well. "Now," she said. "Whichever one of you froze my family, would you kindly unfreeze them? They deserve to meet their teenage nephews." Piper said, still looking adoringly at Wyatt and Chris. Mel threw up her hands, and unfroze everyone except Leo.

"Wha-what?" Phoebe exclaimed, looking bewilderedly around the room. "What happened?" Paige asked. "Mel!" Haleigh and Peyton screamed. They may have been three, but they were still very annoyed when they were left out of things. "Who's Mel?" all three Charmed Ones asked at the same time. "Me." Mel said, raising her hand. But, Phoebe and Paige weren't paying attention to her. "Chris!" they exclaimed excitedly. They ran over to hug him, just as their older sister had done. After they pulled away, Chris said, "Not that I'm mad, but why am I getting all the hugs?" Chris asked. "Remember your other self coming back in time?" Trish asked. "Yeah." Chris said, his voice asking her to continue. "Well, this must be soon after that." Alex concluded. "Oh, okay." Chris said. "Okay, I hate to interrupt this, but I think we should move into another room. I mean, this attic is pretty crowded." Mel said. "Oh, right." Phoebe said. "How about we go into the conservatory? There we can really meet our... visitors." Paige suggested. The group of twelve left the attic, leaving behind a still-frozen Leo.

AN: Okay, there's the end of another chapter. I know, it's confusing towards the end, but it will become a bit clearer soon. The bit at the beginning is from OUR SONG by M2M!
