Hey I'm back, hope you like this chapter, I know a lot of you have
questions, but I'm not going to answer them just yet, the suspense is a
vital part of my story, so sorry.
Thanks to Dark Fires (thanks hope you like this one), AJS (did you think it was funny? Cause I never meant it to be, it just kind of ended up that way), Jessica San Martin (love it? Wow that makes me smile), X3 (sorry you won't know just yet), Feline-Feral (awesome? Really?), Pheniox-skye (thanks), lil-whitelighter111488 (didn't you get my email?), buffspike (thanks), Kandie spirit dragon (thanks, is this Casie or one of the other ones that uses this penname?), Gryffindor620 (well...you'll just have to keep reading and find out), darla101 (thanks), Random insane person (sorry I didn't mean to kill anyone with my suspense).
I'm sorry if I left anyone out, it's just my review alert thing is buggered up, although it says that it's active, I didn't get an email to tell me I got reviews from Random insane person and darla101, they just appeared on my review page. Does anyone know why it's not working? Or is it just my system?
Anyway...on with the story...
Chapter 4
"So tell me exactly what happened?"
"Chris, I've already told you everything we know." Phoebe moaned, she was getting sick of repeating herself.
"Well tell me again!" Chris snapped.
"Chris getting mad isn't going to get us answers." Piper said quietly, she knew Chris' temper all to well, as he had inherited it from her.
"Sorry." He quietly replied. "But how? Why?" Chris stopped there, as there were too many questions running around his head, nothing like this had ever happened to him before.
"We are going to find out, ok, but in the mean time do you think you could keep it down? You're going to wake Leo." Paige said as she slouched back, making herself more comfortable on the couch she was sharing with her two sisters, Chris who was pacing in front of them stopped in his tracks.
"Leo?"
"Yeah, well you were ranting about missing time, that we didn't get a chance to tell you guys yet." Phoebe said, in her little voice that said 'don't yell when we do tell you'.
"Tell us what?" Piper asked.
"Leo collapsed."
"What?" Piper shrieked.
"SShhh." Paige hushed her, but to no avail.
"Don't you shush me! What happened?" Piper asked, her voice getting louder and louder.
"Well we called Leo cause you guys were acting weird..."
"Weird?" Chris asked very defensively.
"Yeah, and then he just collapsed, and he's got a temperature too, when he woke he keep insisting he was fine, anyway Paige took him downstairs, thinking he might feel better if he gets some sleep." Phoebe quickly said in one breath.
"He collapsed and you just put him in bed?" Piper began to shriek again. "What if is darklighter poison or..."
"It's not." Paige assured.
"What if it's something worse." Piper continued.
"Mom calm down." Chris said as he knelt down in front of her, the roles reversing he was now trying to calm her down, then he repeating her own word to her. "Getting mad isn't going to get us answers."
"But...God if anything happens to him!" She quickly stood up, forcing Chris to take a few steps backwards, then she took off towards the stairs.
"Mom..." Chris called after her, she spun on her heels, and glared at him, anger apparent all over her face.
"How can you be so calm? Something could be seriously wrong with him!" Piper raged, her own temper getting the better of her.
"I'm just trying to keep a clear head."
Piper looked like she was about to explode, not literally of course, but before she before she could even reply she disappeared in a flash of red light.
"Mom?" Chris asked panicked, then he turned to face his aunts. "Where'd she go?"
"How the hell are we supposed to know?" Phoebe shot back; this lack of sleep was making her cranky.
Paige looked at her watch; it was a little after 3.30am. Now that Piper had disappeared again, it was obvious she wasn't going to get any sleep tonight.
"Ugh I have to go to work tomorrow...or today...you know what I mean." Paige moaned, thinking of the new tempt job that was waiting for her at 9 O'clock.
"Hello, your sister just disappeared and you're worried about your beauty sleep!" Chris shouted.
Now it was Chris' temper that was out of control, as he continued to rant, asking questions like why hadn't he disappeared too? To which they could only reply that they didn't know, which enraged him further. Then just like Piper, mid-sentence Chris disappeared in a flash of red light.
"Great, that's just great!" Paige moaned.
"Now what do we do?" Phoebe asked.
"What can we do? There's nothing in the book, and we tried scrying, spells and even sensing last time."
"Yeah." Phoebe replied as she pulled her legs in close, hugging her knees. She was so tired, her eyelids were beginning to droop and before she knew it she was asleep, Paige too.
The clock now read 5am, when Piper re-appeared.
"Wh..." Piper was still ranting, but she stopped when she realised everything was different. Paige and Phoebe were both curled up asleep on the couch, and Chris was nowhere to be seen.
"Crap, not again!" She muttered as she realised what had happened. She had blinked and an-hour-and-a-half of her life had gone, just like that. But the main question was what was causing this?
Piper looked at her sleeping sisters, they looked so peaceful and all of the anger that had been building up inside of her vanished. They were curled put together in positions that Piper knew was going to give them sore muscles in the morning, but she didn't have the heart to wake them. Silently as she could she left the attic, and went in search of Leo.
Piper found him sleeping in their bed, and immediately a knot appeared in the pit of her stomach; worry. He was pale and sweating, basically he didn't look good.
"Sweetie..." Piper whispered as she crawled under the covers beside him, wrapping her arms around him, as much as her bulging stomach would allow. Before she drifted off to sleep she whispered, "I love you."

Wow...aren't you shocked I didn't leave a cliff-hanger! Plus sorry this chapter is so short but I thought that this was a good place to end it...anyway just a warning, I have major exams coming up, and will only be updating when I can, sorry! Please tell me what you think, feedback really gives me inspiration to write! (and I love getting reviews) Oh and you can email me too if you want, my email is uno_dos_tres31@hotmail.com!
