Zythe: I basically wanted to give Paige a power that would only allow her to protect herself. I believe, force fields are also Wyatt's power so I assumed it had to be biological someplace between a witch and a white lighter. Bummer you don't get season 7 but I thought you would like the bit about the avatars. Princess Pinky: Not worry, there will be moments between Amanda and Paige. Paige is her guardian so they will have a special bond. FYI: I'm debating a scene with the "I Scream Man". Can you just see Paige trying to pull Amanda from the truck? ShanFan, thanks so much for commenting again. Cutelittlebritt: Cole is around, I'll try to work him in more. The darklighter is not gone btw. He just left for a bit. Stephanie04321: thanks so much for reading! lana: not to worry, I have specific plans for Prue. I'm glad you liked Dream Wedding. To all of you, who have commented about Natalie. I had so much fun writing her in Dream Wedding, I had to bring her back. I promise not to overuse her, but I thought it would be fun to see Paige's reaction.

Charmed in the Afterlife: The Curse of the Lost

Paige looked about her, as slowly her clothes to turned to drab matching that of the children whom she was soon to serve. "This is so totally not my color". She looked about for a moment more, and thought, "okay what would Prue or Phoebe do?" Prue would save the innocent without thought and find a way out as quickly as she could while Phoebe would think with her heart, first and then attend to the later. Emotions were never a factor with Prue, or at least they didn't seem to be. Prue was always so business like, pondering more on purpose and outcome than emotion.

Hearing the sound of whimpers, Paige lumbered down the shallow corridor, taking in the sight of several hollow expressionless faces. It wasn't until she reached the end of the hall, that she came across a girl about the age of fourteen. The young teen sat on the floor with her head buried into her knees. Her long mangled stands of brown hair tumbled around her slim shoulders.

"Why are you crying?" Paige knelt to the girls side.

"Who are you?" the child asked, acting as if Paige had just touched her with a hot poker.

"I'm Paige"

"Are you a demon?"

"No, I'm a witch; a good witch and a guardian"

The young girls face suddenly lit up. "The guardian of lost children? The wise one told us you would come"

"The wise one?"

"We call her Natalie. She's an angel that was sent to tell us of your coming"

"Well I had no idea I had such a reputation" Paige snorted softly, taking the freedom to brush a hair away from the child's face. "What's your name?"

"Shaylee," the girl sniffled. "Can you get me out of here?"

"Well Shaylee" Paige swallowed nervous, "I'd love too if I knew a little more about here.". Shaylee's face fell, "some call this place the dimension of the lost. We are all here by a twist of fate, or forgotten destiny"

"Twist of fate?" Paige looked at the girl, confused.

"You know, things that were suppose to happen but didn't. Most of us, were born out of dreams that never came true or were sent here because we were no longer wanted by our destined sires."

"Why are you here?" Paige inquired watching the child hang her head.

"My parents discovered that I was to have an undesirable power"

"An undesirable power?" Paige titled her head motioning for the girl to show her. Timidly, Shaylee reached for Paige's hand, gripping it.

"I have molecular absorption. The power to drain memories and abilities"

Slowly Paige began to feel a smothering heat race through her body, twisting and burning her insides, "I can't breathe"

Manor

"Wendigo!" Phoebe announced. A black haired wendigo blinked into the kitchen, with talons raised.

"Get out of here!" Prue blasted. Setting her sights on Phoebe's vat of Wendigo repellant, Prue flicked her fingers, sending a glob of it straight in the creatures face. The wendigo's hands rose to his face as the foul smelling concoction began to scald its skin.

Both Phoebe and Prue watched the creature scream in pain and then disintegrate.

"And to think you wanted my child to drink that?" Prue quipped smartly placing a hand on one hip. "Do you think it will work fat white lighters?"

Phoebe laughed aloud for several moments, and then sobered. "It's ironic, that the Elders would send Natalie Paige after all she put you through.

"Yeah, she's like a bad dream that won't go away" Unconsciously, Prue began to pick at her cuticles making Phoebe frown.

"She's not after your baby, Prue" Phoebe said sensing her sisters' fear. Prue pursed her lips and adverted her eyes.

"I wish I had your confidence". Prue's moment of self doubt was short lived as Piper's near deafening howl sounded from the dining room.

"GET OUT! GET OUT!"

The kitchen door swung open to find, Piper viciously pelting at a wendigo with a broomstick in hand.

Prue and Phoebe glanced at one another perplexed. Prue then swung her arm across her body, hurling the creator into the curio cabinet. "A broom?" She questioned wondering why her sister had chosen not to use her powers.

"I was sweeping damn it!" Piper tossed the broom aside and waved her wrists sending an explosion of molecular acceleration at the beast. "Fifthly beast got mud on my floor!" Typical, the wendigo exploded without further threat.

"What do you want to bet that those two were just scouts?" Phoebe quipped anticipating the rest of the mob. No sooner had said the words, then a trio of dark brown furred monsters appeared before them all gnashing their teeth.

"Is that the best you got?" Piper again flicked her wrists freezing the creatures into the place. "Okay, where's my broom?"

"Feeling a little menstrual today? Are we?" Phoebe jeered tossing the broom into Piper's hands. Assuming a batter's stance, Piper then proceeded to smash the creature closest to her to bits.

"I'd forgotten how good that feels" She was about to take another swing, when the second creature suddenly unfroze, plucking the broom from her hands.

"Prue!" Before Prue could react, the creature swung at Piper hard, knocking her across the room.

"Piper!" Prue flung her arm sending a wave of telekinetic energy at the creature. Much to her surprise, the beast merely raised it own hands deflecting the blast right back at Prue. Prue's screams echoed throughout the manor as her body went smashing through the stained glass doors, leaving only Phoebe conscious to fight.

Shards of glass stuck to Prue's hands and face as she lay face down in the dirt, listening to Phoebe's screams for help. Glancing upward, Prue saw through fuzzy vision of set of blue and white orbs form in front of her.

"Andy?" Dazed Prue stared at a huge pair of wendigo feet, with claw like talons extending from the toes. Prue held her stomach as a strong hairy arm pulled her upright. "Help, Phoebe and Piper" she grimaced, looking upward into a familiar set of deep blue eyes.

Andy grunted, calling upon his crossbow before helping Prue ease herself into a patio chair. She then listened as the battle between wendigo vs witch and tracer wendigo was short lived.

"Are you okay?" Piper and Phoebe were instantly at her side concerned.

"I'm fine" Prue grimaced again, this time clenching her teeth as Piper and Phoebe led her inside. Andy was in the dining room, holding an all too happy Amanda.

"No matter what he looks like, she knows her father" Phoebe assessed admirably over the fact that her young niece seemed to be fearless of the hideous beast that was consuming her father.

"It's a gift," Prue hissed looking about for the purple colored vial "Where's the potion Paige made?"

"It's right here" Piper plucked it off table, placing it in Prue's hands. "Are you sure you want to use it on Andy? It is her first potion"

"Paige tested it on Mrs. Hennessy's cat and all of its hair fell out" Phoebe supplied.

"I'll take my chances," Prue returned, "Take Amanda"

"Piper quickly scooted across the floor, caroling in a sing song voice, "all right little missy. It's time for Daddy to change out of his Chewbacca costume"

Andy's eyes shifted, causing him to admit a deep growl of disapproval while Phoebe covered her eyes. "Please don't let him be naked. Please don't let him be naked," she prayed as Prue reared back her arms tossing the vial at Andy.

"If this doesn't work, blame Paige" Smoke filled the room in time with several loud explosive pops.

"Andy?" Prue waited a moment, hesitant of the outcome. Slowly she mad e her way through the fog, to see a fully clothed but shaken looking Andy.

"Prue what the hell happened?"

"Paige found a way to physically change to you back" Prue beamed rushing into his arms. The two shared a passionate embrace.

"Prue we shouldn't do this. It's not safe for you to get this close" As a rule Wendigos had an uncontrollable appetite for violence and sex. An angry mixture of both passion and the desire to maim filled Andy. The sensation of his lips on hers, left him thirsty for blood.

"Prue stop" An unstoppable rage, pumped through his veins wanting her all the more.

"NO!" Forgetful of his strength, Andy pushed her away, sending Prue straight to the floor.

"Ow!" Prue landed solid with another jarring sensation whacking through her body. Until now she'd been able to ignore the pain, she'd suffered at the hand of the window

"Prue?" Andy's eyes instantly reflected human remorse as Phoebe attempted to help her to her feet.

"I'm fine," Prue protested, as Phoebe noticed a pool of blood forming at her feet.

"To hell you are, LEO!"
