Rodriguez suddenly found himself in the underworld. Tempus sent him a thin smile. "Didn't really go according to plan did it."

"What happened? I thought they vanquished me!"

"Oh they did, they did." Tempus laughed. "But I've reset time. You can go and try again. But first, which one got you?"

Rodriguez frowned, "the eldest. She caught me by surprise."

"Then make sure you get her this time."


"Phoebe! Come on wake up!" Paige yelled excitedly as she leapt up onto her sisters bed.

Phoebe groggily sat up and looked at the alarm clock beside her bed. It was 7:00 am. "Paige!" Phoebe whined, "It's way too early."

"Yeah but come on Phoebe it's Christmas!" Paige jumped one last time and landed next to Phoebe. "Where were you last night? You missed out on the funniest Christmas eve ever! Me and Glen made up and him and Kyle joined me and Dad for a cookie feast!"

Phoebe rolled back over facing away from Paige, debating on weather or not she should tell her sister about the night before.

"And then after we ate all the cookies, Dad started telling us about the actual Santa Clause who went around giving children…"

Paige!" Phoebe interrupted her, "I need you to swear that you will not tell a single soul about what I'm gonna tell you."

"Oh, but Pheebs you know what I'm like about keeping secrets." Paige sat up and leaned against the wall.

Phoebe frowned, "De ja vu."

"Huh?" Paige asked confused.

"Never mind." Phoebe shook it out of her head then looked up at Paige.

"Paige, I have to tell someone. Last night me and Cole…. You know." Phoebe couldn't help but let a big grin find itself across her face.

Paige's mouth dropped open, "What! But….but don't you think you're a bit young? Piper hasn't even…"

"Yeah but that's Piper. Look Paige it just seemed like the perfect time. We were in his car under the stars, and he told me he loved me then…"

Paige let out a small disgusted shriek then jumped up. "I don't need to hear this!" She paused becoming even more disgusted, "In his car? EW!"

"Oh," Phoebe got that feeling again. "This is weird!"

"What?" Paige asked worried.

"I feel like we've had this conversation before!" Phoebe got out of bed and sighed. "Come on let's go wake the others up."


Downstairs the girls had started opening their presents. Paige seemed to have the most this year because of what Sam had brought her but Sam did bring the others presents too.

Piper who had been in a gloomy mood picked up one present and read aloud, "From Leo."

"Piper what's wrong?" Prue asked concerned. She knew when something was up with Piper.

"The Elders won't let me and Leo be together." Piper said quietly. She then got up and ran out of the room.

Prue got up and followed her while Paige and Phoebe sent each other a look then to got up to follow. As they past the phone it started to ring.

Phoebe, who starting to freak out a little, realized she knew that that was gonna happen. "I have to go check the book of shadows I'll be right back!"

Paige shook her head and picked up the phone. "Hello?"

"Oh. Hello, Paige." It was Victor Bennett, Piper, Prue and Phoebe's dad. "Can I speak to one of my daughters?"

"Uh, I'll go get one of them." Paige rested the phone on the side and headed up the stairs to find Piper and Prue. She met them half way. "Victor's on the phone."

"What?" Prue asked slightly surprised. "I've got nothing to say to him!"

Piper hurried down to talk to him while Prue started to make her way upstairs.

"Prue where ya going?" Paige asked quietly. "you haven't opened up my present yet."

Prue sighed, "I'll open it later Paigey."

"MERRY CHRISTMAS!"

Paige almost jumped out of her skin when Kyle and Glen burst through the front door. When she realised it was them a huge grin spread across her face and she shouted it back. "MERRY CHRISTMAS!"

"Okay now this is getting like, super freaky!" Phoebe said, coming downstairs with the book of shadows.

"We're not interrupting anything demonic are we?" Glen set a couple of cards on a table then walked over to the sisters who were stood over the book of shadows.

"I think we're in a time loop." Phoebe informed them.

"We're in a what now?" Kyle asked.

"A time loop. Today I have been getting some serious De ja vu!" Phoebe quickly flipped through the book of shadows.

"But Pheebs everyone gets De ja vu!" Paige folded her arms across her chest.

"Not like this."


After Piper said goodbye to Victor, she decided to start on the turkey. It would take her mind off Leo, but then she saw the present from Leo.

She picked it up and was about to open it when Rodriguez appeared right in front of her.

He threw his arm up and sent a ball of electricity flying at her. Piper went flying into the Christmas tree.

"Piper!" Phoebe and Paige ran in followed by Kyle and Glen.

Rodriguez threw another energy ball their way. Paige orbed out but Phoebe then remembered that it was going to hit Kyle. She pushed him out the way only to get hit herself.

Rodriguez then sent another energy ball towards the door just as Prue ran threw. It his Prue and sent her flying backwards.

Paige grabbed Glen and Kyle then orbed the three of them into the attic.

"Oh god! What am I gonna do!" Paige panicked.

"Paige, why don't you try and orb one of his own energy balls at him!" Glen suggested.

Paige shook her head, "No, no! I can't do that! I… I'm not powerful enough!"

Kyle put his hand on her should. "Come on Paige, you have to try!"

After a moments hesitation Paige nodded. "Okay, but stay here. Both of you!"

She orbed back downstairs in front of Rodriguez.

"Oh look, the baby Charmed ones come to try and stop me." He laughed and energy ball appearing in his hand. "You don't have a shot in hell!"

"Wanna bet!" Paige put her hand up and called, "Energy Ball!"

It appeared in her hand and she threw it at Rodriguez vanquishing him.
