Author's Note: Wow, these chapters are being written like wildfire! I am so inspired with this story; I can't help myself from writing the chapters as they come to me! I now have a new idea, which hopefully will start to be incorporated into this chapter. The Power of Three will definitely be reconstituted with Paige joining the fold. Future decisions will be directly influenced by what happens next! What happens next is my new idea, which is very creative and new to this story and other stories I've written!
Anyway, here's chapter 33. I hope you enjoy it!
Halliwell Manor
Prue, Piper, Kelly, Ryan, and Clay are sitting in the living room. Prue and Piper are impatiently waiting for Leo and Anthony to return with the solution of how to get their powers functioning again.
Leo orbs in.
"Leo, what'd you find out?" asks Piper, frantically.
"Hi," says Prue, grabbing Piper's hands. "Relax!"
"Where's Anthony?" asks Kelly, observing that he didn't orb in with Leo.
"He had to tend to other charges. I'll be keeping him informed," says Leo.
"So, Leo, did they give you a way to restore their powers?" asks Ryan.
"Yes, they gave me a spell," says Leo.
Prue and Piper smile.
"But, the spell requires the Power of Three," says Leo, sadly. Prue and Pipers' smiles fade.
"What are we going to do, how are we going to save Paige?" asks Piper, upset.
"What if us three go with you?" asks Clay, referring to Kelly, Ryan, and himself. "It may not be the Power of Three but it's worth a shot."
Prue and Piper look at Leo.
"It could work," says Leo, shrugging his shoulders.
"Ok, so let's go," says Prue, getting up. "By the way, Leo, where's Andy?"
"He's up there," says Leo.
Prue nods, while Ryan, Clay, and Kelly look at her.
"What's wrong?" asks Prue, curiously.
"We have no idea where Kelly is," says Kelly.
"Oh, right," says Prue, dejectedly.
"How do we find her?" asks Piper.
Anthony orbs in.
He looks at Leo and they begin talking in that clickety-clack language that Leo and Natalie talked in during Season 3, Episode 11, "Blinded By The Whitelighter."
Prue, Piper, Ryan, Kelly, and Clay look between themselves, confused at what language they are speaking and what they are saying.
"What are they speaking?" asks Prue. "Whitelighter-ese?"
(A/N: This line, "Whitelighter-ese", was taken from Charmed Season 3, Episode 11, "Blinded By The Whitelighter.")
"I have no idea," says Ryan. "I've heard whitelighter's have their own language they use to communicate with each other in and I guess this is it."
Anthony and Leo stop clickety-clacking.
"Change of plans, we gotta go," says Leo, as he and Anthony orb out.
"What the hell was that all about?" asks Clay, out loud.
"I don't know. But, let's go up to the Book of Shadows and see if there's anything that can help us," suggests Piper.
We see Leo and Anthony orb into the attic, right in front of the Book of Shadows, which is on its podium.
"Are you sure we have to do this?" asks Leo, skeptically.
"Yes, this is what the Elders said. Prue and Piper are at a crossroad; they want to reconstitute the Power of Three but at the same time they can't move on after Phoebe's death and are having a hard time accepting Paige. They also have personal questions. This is the only way for them to lose their doubts," Anthony tells Leo.
"Ok," says Leo, as he places his hands over the Book and they begin to glow. The pages begin flipping, as Anthony and Leo orb out.
Prue, Piper, Ryan, Kelly, and Clay enter to see the pages flipping.
"The pages were doing that flipping thing on their own again," says Piper.
(A/N: The line that Piper just said was taken from Charmed Season 2, Episode 2, "Morality Bites.")
The walk over to the podium and see that the Book of Shadows has opened to the Future and Return Spells.
"It's a spell to take us to the future," says Kelly, peering over Prue's shoulder.
"2 actually. One to bring us there and one to send us home," says Clay.
"But, it says that once we cast these spells, they're gone forever," says Ryan, reading.
"This makes no sense. How does going to the future save Paige?" asks Piper.
"Maybe it's not to save Paige, maybe it's to save us," says Prue, as Piper looks at her, confused. "We both have doubts about reconstituting the Charmed Ones and welcoming Paige into our lives and we also both have personal questions. Maybe this will help us gain a little perspective."
Piper nods, realizing Prue is right.
"If we go, who'll save Paige?" asks Piper.
"We'll take care of Paige," says Clay, referring to Ryan, Kelly, and himself.
"Are you sure?" asks Prue.
"Yes, you guys go. By the time you return, we'll have Paige back," says Kelly, reassuringly.
"Ok," says Prue, as she and Piper sit around the table, while putting the Book of Shadows on the table.
"We'll need a date," says Piper, reading what's necessary for the spell.
"Um, how about 10 years in the future?" suggests Ryan.
"Ok, May 15, 2008 her we come!" exclaims Prue.
She quickly writes the date on a piece of paper, grabs a lighter, and burns the piece of paper.
"Hear these words,
Hear the rhyme,
We send to you this burning sign,
Then our future selves,
In another place and time," recite Prue and Piper aloud and in unison. They disappear in white lights.
"Ok, let's get working on saving Paige," says Kelly.
They head over to the map and begin scrying.
