Sorry about the late update you guys, I've been SO busy lately. But this chapter is longer than most so I hope that makes up for it!

Kendalpaigecharity – Thanks! I'm glad you liked it!

Prince Halliwell – Yeah, Emma was psychokinetic. But she's stripped herself of her advanced powers, that would everything but telempathy and psionic blasts, this psychokinesis is part of those powers advancing and not part of her "master" powers. I'll put a list of the girls' powers at the end of the chapter. Glad you liked it all!

Phoebe turner – Ugh… Computers, you love them and hate them. Thanks for reviewing!

Pangea – Yeah, I think it's a bit unfair how they've damned Cole for eternity, I'm glad you liked it.

Phiona – Yeah, silly mistake on my part. I've fixed it.

Piperfairy – Don't worry, Brennan and Phoebe will pull through! And I just had to throw in Katrina for a little angst!

Princess Pinky – Lol, "the brat" every family has one, except in my case it's my older sister. I just had to throw in Katrina! She'll make for a sht stirrer! And Mel's illness will be explained in this chapter. Yeah, I put in those Piper and Emma moments just for a little comedy to lighten the mood.

Ravenix – I know. That damn Tribunal! Lol, that seems to be everyone's opinion of Katrina. And yes, Paige and Aidan reuniting also seems to be the popular opinion lol! That's a lot of hopes there!

Chyp – Thanks!

Unique deflection – Ugh… Spain, you lucky devil! I'm glad you've liked all the chapters you've missed!

Andy20 – Thanks! I haven't really updated quickly… (Hangs head in shame)

Wyatt halliwell – I've been pretty busy lately. I'm glad you liked them!

Of Water And Orbs

Paige pushed the door open of P3 and walked down the stairs towards the main area. The half witch frowned when she saw Emma kneeling down, sweeping glass off the floor and a mop was sweeping the floor behind the psionic, absorbing the fluid that seemed to be on the floor.

"Emma?" Paige said in a questionable tone. The empath didn't look up, still sweeping the glass off the floor, "Hey! You deaf or something?"

She looked up, "What?" Emma snapped with a little annoyance. She let out a little yelp when the bucket that the mop had been floating into occasionally, suddenly flew across the room and hit the wall, making the bubbly liquid spill all over the floor, "Crap!" She cursed, putting the brush and shovel on the bar and putting her hands on her hips.

"New power problems?" The witchlighter smirked as she sat down at the bar, resting her forearms on the bar.

"It is driving me insane!" She exclaimed, picking up the knocked over bucket and going behind the bar, "This is ridiculous! I'm sabotaging myself with this power," The psionic shoved the bucket in one of the shelves and rubbed her temples.

"Headache?" Paige smirked.

"How did you know?"

"I call them Kinetic Pains. I used to get them if I used my telekinesis too much…" She looked into space wistfully, "Ah… the good old days,"

"Wanna take my new power?" Emma folded her arms and smirked, "I mean, I didn't even know I was doing that!" She gestured to the mop on the floor, "Next time it happens, I could end up with a knife in my back,"

"I seriously doubt it. So, do you know where Piper is? I came here to talk to her,"

Emma made a face as she took a cloth and began to wipe the bar, "Oh, I sent her home,"

"Excuse me? I didn't realize you were the owner of P3,"

The empath avoided eye contact and kept cleaning, "Well, a crate of beer fell off a table and she tried to freeze it. Three guesses what happened,"

Paige perked up, knowing that that was probably why there was a mess in the club, "She blew it up? Is she okay?"

Emma shrugged, "The glass cut her face a little bit, Leo healed her though. I convinced the poor girl to go home,"

"And the beer crate falling off the table wouldn't have anything to do with you, would it?"

The psionic sighed and threw the cloth down on the bar, "Grant called… from France,"

"Uh oh…" Paige's face dulled. Even though he lived in San Francisco, Grant's work usually called him to other countries, which usually meant that he and Emma usually got very little time with each other.

"You know, he says he's too busy. But he can sand over to me in a second, yet he's too busy? Ugh… anyway, I was pissed and my new power seems to be activated when I get angry and next thing I know, I hear glass shattering. Why do you want to talk to Piper anyway?"

"I was going to ask her to look after the twins tonight."

"Why don't you ask Aidan?"

She scoffed at the suggestion, "Because we're avoiding each other, I don't know where he is and I don't want to risk his little floozy taking the kids,"

"Um… Well, I can answer the second question for you," Emma replied nervously, picking up the cloth again and twisting it nervously. Suddenly, the door that led to the alleyway swung open and Aidan walked in carrying a crate of beer, "Hey Emma, where do you want the-," He was cut off by Paige gaping at him.

"Just… put them in the back!" The psionic replied with a high voice, sensing the tension in the room and wanting it to end. He nodded and walked towards another door, pushing it open with his knee before disappearing inside.

Paige suddenly reached over the bar and grabbed her friend's arm, "He's staying here?" She hissed.

Emma held up her hands, "Hey, it wasn't my idea. Piper offered him the back sofa when you kicked him out. I don't see you did that by the way, I mean, I felt the emotions coming from you guys when you left the room yesterday," She pretended to fan herself with the cloth, "I needed a cold shower afterwards."

The witchlighter groaned and run a hand through her dark hair, "I can't think about Aidan right now, I would rather think about what is wrong with my daughter,"

"Did you take her to the doctors?" Emma asked as she dried off a glass.

"Yeah, I explained what happened, leaving out the orb shield part. He checked her out and says that she was completely healthy, which makes me think this illness is magical, so…"

The psionic knew where was going to put her hand up, "Stop right there! We're not casting a spell. Do you want to get out the "personal gain" branding iron?"

She started to plead," C'mon Emma! Do you want Melinda to be ill?"

Emma responded with sighing and throwing the cloth down, "Ugh… Using my goddaughter as a bargaining chip, you're an evil woman. Alright, let's go,"


"Can I ask why I was needed for this?" Pamela rolled her eyes and folded her arms while anxiously tapping her foot off the attic floor.

"Because you're the one who's most powerful at the moment. Me and Piper have half of our powers and Phoebe is a mortal, if something goes wrong, you can help Emma fend off what ever I summon by accident," Paige explained as she set crystals on the floor, ready to trap what ever beast she may accidentally summon with a personal gain spell.

The teen nodded, "You're taking a lot of precautions for this. Who are you and what have you done with my real aunt?"

"Trust me, I would never do stuff like this, it's Emma who wants to. I had to pry chalk out of her hand to stop her from drawing a binding pentacle on Piper's floor!"

"She knows how to draw a binding pentacle? Wow, you learn something new everyday," Pamela mused while Paige gave her a strange look, "It's just that pentacles are very complicated. One mistake and you end up aiding the thing you're trying to capture instead of containing it," This got her another look, "I learned a few things when I was in Italy,"

"You were in Italy?" Paige said in disbelief.

"Yeah, Rome is a beautiful city! Such great architecture, where do think I learned how to mould gargoyles?" She smirked smugly, "That reminds me. Arc!"

A quiet whistle sailed through the air as Arc suddenly flew through the door. He hovered in front of Pamela and did his best to bow in mid-air, "You called, Miss?"

"Yes. I would like you to stay here and be ready to attack hostile parties," Pamela informed the creature.

He nodded, "As you wish." The gargoyle floated silently towards a table and stood like a statue. Emma walked back in carrying a satchel of potions; she smiled and waved the pouch in the air.

"Okay, cast your spell. We're as ready as we're going to be,"

Paige rolled her eyes, "Are you sure? Because I could get a SWAT team in for back up," She smirked at her scowling friend before ripping the front page off a pad and reading the spell that she had written down.

"The few things that I now hold dear,

My child's illness is all I fear,

I now beseech all spirits divine,

Give me answers, make them mine,"

The three of them stood for a few seconds, until Melinda and Emma, who had both been sitting in the playpen, raised her arms and pointed towards the centre of the room. The twins giggled and bounced slightly as they sat, transfixed by swirling lights that were now appearing in the middle of the crystal cage. Echoes of bickering voices could be heard, they were getting clearer as three figures appeared. The first two girls looked almost identical, they had blonde hair down just past their shoulders and their green eyes stood out from their porcelain faces even from a fair distance. The only difference between them, apart from her clothes, was that one had straight hair and the other had curly hair. The third girl was completely different, her skin certainly wasn't as pale and dark brown hair with a slight red tint brushed her bare shoulders, as she wore a white halter top and black jeans with suede boots.

The three girls looked around in confusion, not noticing the other people in the room. The one with straight blonde hair sighed and put her hands on her hips, whipping round to the girl with brown-red hair.

"Oh God, what have done now, Faith?" She snapped.

Faith snorted on response, "Don't blame me, Mel. We both know your orbing is always a little off,"

Mel looked outraged, "Whoa. Too far,"

"Okay, guys…" The one with curly hair stepped in between the two and pushed the warring women apart, "Let's not start this again right now." She turned to her twin, "Mel, don't always blame Faith, and Faith, lay off power insults. You know the situation. I'll get us out of here. Crystal! Away!"

The girl waved her hand at one of the crystals, what happened next astounded Paige. The crystal was devoured by a surge of water and it turned into a bubble, which then proceeded to float at a high speed towards the wall and hit it, the crystal then rematerialized on the floor.

"E… Emma?" Paige breathed.

The three girls spun round and their eyes widened when they saw Paige, Emma and Pamela standing there, "Demons…" Future Emma growled, moving part of her blonde hair from her face before raising her arm and releasing a dark stream of black-purple light from her palm swiftly. Pamela quickly redirected it with her power while Arc flew off the table, conjuring an energy ball and preparing to fire before a flash of blue emitted from Faith's feet and she was propelled into the air. Sparks flew from the teen's feet as she tackled the gargoyle to the ground, but instead of instantly falling like Brennan's power, Faith hovered in the air with voltage sparking from her boots.

Emma stepped forward and conjured a psionic blast, preparing to fire at Mel, but Paige suddenly but her arm up and stopped her from taking another step, "Stop!"

Future Emma was raising her arm and about to fire another blast of darkness, but her twin pushed her arm down and pointed to Arc, who had recovered from Faith's tackle almost immediately, "Emma… Isn't that Arc? Look at those wings,"

"What? You mean Pam's Arc? But that's impossible. He was-,"

"Mom?" Mel suddenly blurted out, "Is it… really you?"

The colour from Paige's face drained as she realized that these two girls, these twins, were her two daughters!


"So…" Piper pointed a wary finger at Faith, "You're Phoebe and Brennan's daughter?"

"Um…" The teen exchanged a nervous look with her cousins, who were sitting on the sofa with their baby counterparts on their laps, "Yeah,"

"Okay, mini me? Please let go of my earring," Melinda winced as the giggling baby in her lap tugged at her loop earring.

"What age are you guys?" Pamela asked, she guessed that the twins were older than her.

"We're nineteen. And she's…" Future Emma shared a look with her sister, "We probably shouldn't tell you,"

Faith flopped her arms down on the armrest, "What am I? The world's biggest secret?"

"Faith…" Melinda warned.

"Just because I don't exist yet…" She whipped her head around to Pamela, "I'm sixteen,"

"Faith!" The blonde witch snapped again, making her infant counterpart begin to cry. The youngest cousin let out a frustrated sigh and leapt off the chair, storming out of the living room and slamming the front door as she left the Manor. Future Emma sighed and handed Baby Emma to her mother, preparing to go after her.

"No," Paige stopped her, "I think that will require a mother's touch,"

Melinda shook her head immediately, "Definitely not. She has a lot of issues with Aunt Phoebe and Uncle Brennan, so it's better they stay away,"

"What kind of issues?" Piper questioned.

"The kind we can't discuss,"

Future Emma put her hands in the back pockets of her pants, "Mom, is… um… Dad around?"

"Emma, don't." Melinda warned.

Paige let out a chuckle as her face reddened, "It's so weird hearing words like 'Mom' and 'Dad" being thrown around…" She looked at her daughters, "If you really want to see him, he'll be at P3 probably,"

"Great!" Future Emma grinned before leaving in a torrent of water, leaving everyone stunned.

"I think I should follow her…" Emma whispered to Pamela, before orbing out.

Melinda took a deep breath as she put her baby self in the playpen, "So why did you summon us?"

"That's what I want to know!" Piper chipped in.

Paige rolled her eyes, "Well, it wasn't intentional." She shot a look at her big sister, "I was worried about you, well, not you, baby you. She… I mean, you, ugh… this is going to be confusing," The witchlighter groaned, "Anyway, baby you passed out yesterday and I wanted to know why, so I cast a spell to find out. I just didn't think that it would summon you guys,"

Melinda's eyes began to go misty, "I guess my illness is rearing its ugly head…"

The two Charmed Ones sat forward a little, "Illness?"


Faith leant against the fence of the porch on the Manor steps. The witch pulled out a black lighter from her jean pocket and opened it out, flicking the lever and igniting the flame. She repeated this process until she heard a car pull up at the front of the house. Her brow furrowed until she scowled as the woman coming out of the front seat with a baby, it was Phoebe with her older brother. Faith rolled her eyes even more when her father got out the other side, seeing him dote over Connor.

"Um… You should be careful with that." Brennan pointed casually to the lighter in Faith's hand.

"You have no right to tell me what to do…" The teen growled in response before opening the door and storming back into the Manor.

"Do we know her?" Phoebe asked, smiling at Connor on her hip, "Because she seems…"

"Familiar?" Her husband filled in, "Yeah… I got that feeling too,"


Pamela walked out the kitchen door and looked around the garden. She had heard a dull repetitive sound coming from outside and decided to check it out, the noise got louder as the Halliwell walked out more, it didn't take long for her to figure out that it was coming from the driveway. She smirked when she saw her future cousin Emma, bouncing a basketball off the cement and throwing it into the hoop that Pamela had asked to be installed on the side of the house.

"I'm so glad this is here in this time," Emma commented before throwing the ball into the air. It rolled around the rim of the hoop before going in.

"You're pretty good. I take it you weren't the "Barbie" kind of girl,"

She grinned, "You got that right. Melinda was the one who liked dolls, gave me a basketball any day,"

"Who taught you?" Pamela asked, leaning on the wall and folding her arms.

Emma cocked her head slightly, "My Dad. And you of course, basketball," She called. The ball was devoured by a surge of water and reappearing in the blonde's hand, she moved a lock of her curly hair out of her eyes before throwing the ball at the net again, but this time, it suddenly veered off course and landed in Pamela's hand.

"Speaking of your Dad, did you and Emma find him?"

"No…" She looked crestfallen, "He wasn't at P3. What?" Emma frowned, seeing the expression on her cousin's face.

Pamela blinked a few times, "Sorry. It's just a little hard for me to my head round the fact that you're older than me right now when your little counterpart is only about three months old. I mean, I don't know anything about your personality, do we get along?"

She didn't get an answer, so she was caught off guard when Emma suddenly walked towards her and hugged her, making her drop the basketball.

"Please be careful…" Emma whispered.

Pamela's eyes began to mist as she pulled away, "I'm not… in your future anymore, am I?"

The twin was about to say more, when a crash and scream from inside shattered her concentration. The two exchanged looks before running back in the house…


Macreaus effortlessly whipped his tail around at a high speed, hitting Piper in the stomach and sending her sailing across the living room and skidding along the floor into the solarium. A trickle of blood flowed subtly from the side of her mouth. Emma shot off a warning psionic blast to hold him off so she could help her friend. The scaly demon grinned and hurled an energy ball towards the psionic, who had her back to him as she was helping Piper up.

"Energy ball!" Melinda yelled, holding out her palm. The sphere began to disappear in orbs before they fizzled out and the energy ball continued its path. The twin eyes glazed over as she held her hand up at her face, "No… not now…" She whimpered, her frame shaking violently as she fought to stay conscious. Emma raised her hand without turning around, tapping into her psychokinetic powers and sending the attack back at Macreaus. Paige was immediately at her future daughter's side, she smiled when she saw her two babies in the playpen. Emma had raised her water shield to protect her sister while Connor protected his mother, who didn't know what to do with herself.

Faith looked around, quickly checking the situation. The only one fully exposed was her father, and even though it pained her to admit it, she had to keep him safe to ensure her own existence. Using one of her mother's signature levitation moves, a screech of voltage sounded as blue sparks flew from her feet, propelling her into the air and spinning her horizontally and kicking Macreaus in the chest, burning him slightly with the electricity from her feet.

"Stupid brat!" The blue demon spat, bearing his teeth and getting up at lightning speed, heading towards his enemy and raising his tail.

He didn't know what suddenly came over him in those moments, but something made Brennan run towards the teenage brunette and pushed her to the ground. Macreaus's tail whipped around and he threw it forward, piercing Brennan in the chest and making the end come out his back. The mutant spat up blood, dying instantly with only the demon's hold keeping him standing.

Faith's body suddenly began to fade away. A golden line of erosion began to make her limbs disappear. The teen raised her fast fading hand to her face and sneered, "Aw… Shi-," Her sentence was cut off by her body completely fading away.

"NO!" Melinda screamed as she turned to towards the killer of her uncle, her eyes were wide with rage as she raised her hands, hoping that the opposing ability of her sister's power would pull through.

"Mel, don't!" Future Emma yelled as she run in with Pamela, she noticed the corpse of her uncle and realized what was about to happen, "Mel…" She coaxed, "If you do that, you're going to bring down the rest of the house along with everyone in it,"

"He killed him…" She growled in response, a searing light beginning to form in her palms.

Macreaus seemed to be amused by this challenge and began to walk towards Melinda, that was his first and last mistake. With a piercing scream, she jutted out her arms and two massive golden, searing, beams of light flew from her palms. Everyone who witnessed this had to step back from the heat that came from this attack. The demon's eyes widened as he met his end, letting out a painful moan as he was vanquished by the photokinetic blast.

"MEL!" Future Emma bellowed. She raised her hands and shot the same black-purple light from her hands that she had done in the attic, the two colliding forces met and the twins were locked together by the union of light and darkness. The entire family stood with wide eyes as the tug of war continued, but it didn't last long as Melinda suddenly fell to the ground and began to shake violently, "Mel… sweetie, I'm sorry," Future Emma whispered as she bent down and brought her hand hard across her sister's face, knocking her out as she was already severely weakened.

"Someone help me get her to the couch," The blonde said calmly. Paige immediately stepped in, a look of fear washing over her face as sweat drenched her future daughter.

Phoebe handed her son to Emma, who had just finished helping Piper onto the sofa from her injury. She knelt down beside her dead husband and began to weep quietly, until she started a wail and but her arms over his bleeding torso…


The Manor was deadly quiet that night. Paige worked silently and as she wrung out a wet cloth and dabbed it on her daughter's forehead, the witchlighter looked exhausted, but she wasn't going to abandon Melinda in a time when she needed her most. The youngest Charmed One scrunched up her eyes when she heard a gush of water and knew that Aidan was standing behind her, along with Katrina.

"Are the girls okay? I just had this feeling…" He began.

Paige sighed, "That pair is," She whispered softly, gesturing to the two bassinets in the room, "The older pair however…" She pressed the flannel down gently onto Melinda's forehead.

"Aidan," Katrina's voice whined, "Can we go back to Atlantis? This commoner air isn't good for me,"

Paige let out a territorial grunt, "I thought I made it clear that I didn't my kids anywhere near that," She spat.

"You really should be nicer to your children's new mother," The so called princess scowled.

That was it. Paige stood up, eyes blazing, "Lay a hand on my children and you won't live along enough to regret it,"

"Katrina…" Aidan said with annoyance, "Go away. Go back to Atlantis if you want,"

The redhead looked baffled, not understanding why he would choose to stay among commoners. With a frustrated sigh, she disappeared in a flash of light.

"So she's…?" The elemental frowned at the young adult on the couch.

"Our little girl," Paige responded simply, "Stay with her. I'm going to get her sister," She walked off towards the kitchen.

Aidan sat down on the coffee table next to Melinda; he smiled when he saw the resemblance to Paige and himself. It pained him to see her like this so he thought he would try to help by trying a little something. The elemental put his hand over her forehead and a soft blue light emitted from it. This wasn't healing, but it might make Melinda a little more comfortable. He pulled his hand away with a sigh, seeing that it had made no difference, until a whimper sounded from her lips and her eyes opened.

"Daddy…?" She choked out in her delirium.

"Yeah, I'm here…" Aidan whispered back, taking her hand.

She sighed, "Please… don't go…" The blonde tightened her grip on her father's hand as much as she could.

Aidan smiled at her, "I'm not going anywhere…"

The elemental used his free hand and picked up the flannel that was in the water filled bowl on the coffee table. He squeezed it so the excess water would fall out, and lightly dabbed Melinda's head. It was at this very moment that Aidan realized…

He was a father.


Future Emma took another puff from the cigarette in her hand while twirling a lock of her curly hair in her fingers. She sighed when she heard the back door open and she looked up from the back step to see her namesake standing at the kitchen exit.

"You shouldn't have those you know. They're bad for you," Emma advised as she sat down, "You got a spare?" She grinned.

The blonde teen smirked, pulling out a box and handing it to her, "Help yourself,"

"Thanks…" The redhead replied, stuffing it in her mouth and taking the lighter, igniting the cigarette and taking the first draw.

"I wouldn't have thought of you to be the smoking type," Future Emma mused as she took another puff, blowing the smoke out into the night air.

"I'm not. It's only when I'm stressed out, I think teenagers fading from existence and a dead friend qualifies," The teen sighed in response. Emma frowned, "You don't seem too torn up about everything,"

"I'm not. Once Melinda gets her strength back, we can bring Uncle Brennan back to life and that should bring back Faith. I mean, Mom knows what Melinda's illness is so we can go home after we fix our mess,"

"Wait, how can you bring him back to life?" Emma looked dumfounded, "He's… dead. I've got a bawling Charmed One in there to prove it!"

Future Emma smiled and took another puff, "We're magical twins. When we get together, some pretty freaky stuff happens with magic. And speaking of Aunt Phoebe, why is she so upset when she doesn't remember anything?"

"She doesn't remember the experiences, she remembers the love and that it's been taken abruptly from her," They sat in silence, "So… You mind if I ask you a few questions?"

Future Emma rolled her eyes, "Shoot,"

"Powers. Explain them! Because you guys seem to be pretty well stocked in that department,"

She let out a laugh, "I wouldn't say we're well stocked. Faith only has two powers, premonitions and jet levitation,"

"Jet levitation?"

"Yeah, it's a cross of her parent's powers. And my power only exists to counteract Mel's, umbrakinesis…" She mused over the name of her power, "The Elders gave it to me when Mel's photokinesis almost killed her,"

"Which brings me to my next question… What's wrong with Mel?"

Future Emma run a hand through her hair, "Every witch has a magical essence. Mel's isn't consistent and it effects her health, sometimes she'll be extremely powerful, which makes her extremely ill, and sometimes she won't be able to orb without fainting,"

"Wow… Must have been hard Paige and Aidan,"

"No… It was hard on Mom. Dad wasn't around much…" Emma scowled, "And Pamela was there for us even more afterwards…"

"After what?" Emma laid a hand on the teen's shoulder, "You can tell me,"

"… It was just a normal afternoon. I wasn't at the house with Mom and Mel, I can't remember why… Anyway, a demon attacked, and… my Mom wasn't looking. She was helping Mel after she fainted, and the demon caught her off guard and…"

Emma's eyes had begun to mist up as the blonde told this story, "Oh my God."

"Pam was like a mother to us after it happened. She took us in, helped us so much,"

A tear fell down the redhead's cheek, "Is… is there anyway to stop this?"

"Yeah…" Emma mashed her cigarette into the stone step, "You can get my parents back together,"


The group stood around Brennan's body. It had been splashed up to the attic with Aidan's help still had a blood soaked sheet over it for respect. Pamela looked at the body of her uncle with tears in her eyes before turning to her cousins,

"Um… Is there any way you can do this without taking off the sheet?"

Emma smiled wryly while holding up her weak sister up, "Yeah, don't worry. A sheet isn't much of a road block when you have the power to bend the laws of magic," She turned to Melinda, "Can you do this?"

The straight haired blonde nodded slowly, "Just keep me together… alright sis?"

The teen nodded in response and took a deep breath, raising a shaky arm towards Brennan. Melinda followed her actions, her movements slower and less steady. The twins snapped their eyes and shut and seemed to be concentrating intensely. Everyone gave them a look as if nothing was happening, until the red haired Emma took a deep breath and stumbled back.

"That power…" She put her hand on her chest, "It's incredible!"

Paige decided to see what all the fuss is about. She glared at her daughters and peered onto the astral plane with her powers, she gasped and covered her eyes from the sheer magic that was blinding her soul and shaking all the magic in the room.

A beam of bright light shot from their palms, shooting into Brennan's chest through the sheet and making his entire body glow. It seemed to be working until Mel's eyes began to glaze over,

"I can't… hold it…" She breathed.

Aidan suddenly stepped up and took hold of her free hand, "Yes you can sweetheart, I know you can,"

Paige followed suit and took hold of Emma's free hand, "You can do this…" She urged.

The light from the twins' hands became stronger as their parents supported them. Brennan's foot twitched and he suddenly sat up, throwing the sheet off his body and looking around, seeing his family staring at him.

There was a bright flash and Faith suddenly reappeared. She grinned and began to feel her legs, laughing with joy as she realized she was back, "Oh… Thank God! My face!" She began to paw at her nose and cheeks.

Future Emma rolled her eyes, "You want me to get you a room?"


"What are the chances of this working?" Phoebe asked with uncertain eyes as Faith took her hands.

"I don't know, but I've did something like this before. Just focus on your desire to remember and I'll do the rest," Her future daughter assured her.

"We'll work on the potion that will open the portal to get you guys back home," Paige said to the future visitors before walking out the room with everyone else. Faith closed her eyes and began to whisper something only audible to her before light began to flow from her hands to her mother's, whose eyes had also been closed. The light ended abruptly and Faith has blasted back, throwing her into a nearby table.

Phoebe blinked a few times before realizing what was going on, "Faith…" She whispered, getting up off the floor, "Are you okay?" She held out her hand to help up the brown haired teen.

"Do you remember anything, Aunt Phoebe?" Melinda asked, now having her full strength back.

"Yeah." She tapped her daughter on the arm, "You'll need to show me how to do that sometime,"

"Easy." Faith said coldly, "I got you your memories, not your powers. It's up to you to get them back,"

Paige, Emma and Brennan came into the room, each of them with a vial of blue potion in their hands. The dark haired mutant gave his wife a strange look and walked towards her, stuffing the potion in his pocket,

"Do you remember anything?" He asked hopefully. Phoebe smirked in response, grabbing his t-shirt and pulling him in towards her, planting her lips on his and locking them in a passionate kiss. Paige and Emma grinned while the three girls looked repulsed.

Phoebe finally pulled away, licking her lips, "Mmm… Nope, sorry, my mind's a blank!" She grinned to him. Her smile expanded even more when Piper came in holding Connor, "Hey, my little guy!" She took him from her sister and kissed his messy black hair lovingly, "I missed you!"

"The potion's done." Emma held it up, and then pointed to the triquetra drawn on the wall, "You guys ready to go?"

"Yeah," Future Emma replied, she moved towards her mother along with her sister, hugging her tightly, "We need Dad…" She whispered into Paige's ear.

"Please don't cut him out completely…" Melinda added.

Paige smiled and kissed her daughters hair, "Anything for my girls…"

Faith stood awkwardly in front of her parents and sibling, who was smiling, now that he had his mother back. Phoebe smiled and put an arm around her neck, hugging her,

"Something tells me you're going to be hell to raise," She grinned, knowing that her daughter probably inherited her wild side.

Faith bit her lip. It took every ounce of her being not to blurt out the truth, "I turn out okay, as you can see!" She twirled.

"Why's your hair got a reddish tint to it?" Brennan frowned.

She grinned in response, "Now, I can't really go around sharing knowledge of future hair products, can I? Don't worry about me so much,"

Brennan chuckled, "Hey, you're my little girl. What do you expect?"

They all shared a moment before a crackling sounded from the wall, everyone turned their head to see the portal opening with a blue light. There was a flash as a tall dark haired man came through it, carrying a little girl with dark brown hair. The man looked a little older than Piper and the girl looked around Wyatt's age.

Melinda's eyes widened, "Keith, what are you doing?" She exclaimed.

"Melly!" The little girl cried, beaming at the blonde girl.

Emma's eyes narrowed, "What if Peyton sees "you know who"?"

Keith rolled his electrifying blue eyes, "I couldn't exactly go trekking across realms looking for you guys and leave my daughter behind. How did you guys get here anyway?"

Faith held her hands up, "Hey, it wasn't me this time."

"Hey!" Pamela's voice came from downstairs, "I'll be up in a minute!"

Peyton's eyes seemed to glitter when she heard the teen's voice; she bounced in her father's arms, "Daddy! Daddy! It's Mo-," She was cut off by Keith covering her mouth gently.

"Alright you three," The man said tiredly, "In the portal. Now, please?"

The three girls rolled their eyes together and gave a last look at their family before walked towards the portal there was a glow from the vortex and they disappeared. Keith removed his hand from Peyton's mouth and smiled at everyone,

"Thanks for looking after them," His eyes turned to the door where he could footsteps, "See you," The man stepped inside the portal and disappeared, making the blue light vanish and returning the wall to normal.

Pamela came into the room, frowning when she saw that her future cousins had disappeared, "Did you send them back already?"

"Um… Yeah, we would have called but they really needed to get back. Timeline and everything," Piper quickly explained.

"Oh…" She looked disappointed, "Well, I think I'm gonna go see Jenna then. Are we done here?" Everyone nodded quickly, "Okay…" Pamela gave her family a strange look, "Peace out," She walked out of the room, her brown-blonde hair swishing behind her as she moved.

"You don't think that Peyton is…" Piper gestured in the direction Pamela had gone.

"Actually…" Emma smiled a little, "I do,"


I hope that made up for the late update! Although the girls visit has probably left more questions than answers!

NEXT TIME: Realizing that he needs a new assassin, The Nameless One resurrects a particular demon that Piper and Phoebe thought they would never see again. Paige sorts out arrangements as Aidan returns to Atlantis. Emma and Grant get to spend more time with each other, and will Pamela have certain issues with The Nameless One's new servant?

Chapter 25 "Mad Shax Murderer" should be up soon!

PS: Okay, I know that there has been an EXTREME lack of Piper/Leo stuff in my fics, but after Chapter 30, that will change! I've got a pretty surprising story arc in store for the Wyatts! So be patient!

Melinda – Orbing, Telekinetic Orbing, Photokinesis (ability to control light)
