Chapter 11: Aunt Paige
A/N: You love me, you really, really love me! Does curtsey. I asked Santa if he could get me Charmed, but for now I don't own it. lol. To me, this chapter seems kind of like filler but I want this story to be really long and I'm sad it's almost over. Only a few more chapters. By the end of the story I promise you'll find out two things. The identity of Mel's father and the fate of the future. Read on!
C.Charmed 24/7: Personally, I thought I was a terrible writer, but you think I'm great! I guess I must be. You're so nice!
Alyssa Halliwell: Had to have the note. Made Leo sound more evil. Which he is. In this fic.
"You're...", aunt Paige stammered. She tried again. "Phoebe's..." She faltered. She looked very tired and confused. I got up putting a comforting hand on my aunts shoulder.
"I came from the future," I explained gently, "we ran into a little problem." As I explained the situation to her, helped along by Chris, her expression changed from shock to fear to anger. We told her, although we did not tell my mother, the exact circumstances of the death of Phoebe Halliwell. Aunt Paige was horrified at this last piece of news.
"I'll kill those evil avatars if that's the last thing I do!" she ranted.
"That's the aunt Paige we know and love!" I said jovially. Even Chris was able to crack a small smile at that remark. Aunt Paige sank onto the comfortable couch in the living room. Me and Chris sat on either side of her.
"So you're really Phoebe's daughter", said aunt Paige. She still seemed to be in a state of shock.
"Yup, that's me", I said.
"I have a niece", she said. She smiled at the words that came out of her mouth. She hugged both her niece and nephew and started daydreaming about the future. She wondered about what could be and what would be. That got her started on reminiscing on what already was. Accidentally (of course) I heard her thinking to herself about the future. After that though, I used a combination of my powers of empathy and telepathy to allow Chris to hear what she was thinking too.
I wonder if I have kids in the future. I've always wanted kids. I hope I'm with Kyle. I love him so much. I'm so happy every time I'm with him. He's great in bed too. He has the worlds biggest...
"Aunt Paige! Ew!", I said leaping off the couch.
"Is that all you think about?!?!" Chris said in disgust.
"You're telepathic, huh!" Aunt Paige said in a half proud, half embarrassed voice.
"Just me", I said quietly.
"So about Kyle and me..." aunt Paige started. Chris stopped her. "Future consequences", he said quickly. Neither of us wanted to tell her what happened between her and agent Brody. Even before it happened when Chris was an infant and I wasn't even an idea we both new how much it devastated her. We couldn't tell her about the end of her next serious relationship, the one with uncle Kevin. That was even more devastating.
"We should get ready to vanquish those damn avatars", Chris said with conviction. He too had seen his aunt Phoebe murdered. It had affected him just as much as it had affected me. He continued, "Aunt Phoebe should be back in about ,(he checked his watch) , ten minutes".
"Chris is right," I said. "We have to bring lots of the potion when aunt Phoebe gets it". And maybe a little of that other potion for agent Brody I thought into Chris' head.
It's too early, He answered back , We can't screw with the timeline...
TBC...
