A/N: Sry about not updating sooner! I've had really really bad writer's block and then I was sick and h/w and stuff so I haven't had time to update until now. Here's chapter six. Enjoy!
Nicole812us: Thank you so much for being such a loyal reader, it means so much that I have at least one person who really likes my story. And yes with Paige having met Prue it will be easier.
Back To The Past
Chapter 6: Questions
Questions:
The next morning when she woke up Paige decided that she had to find the three girls in her dream to see if they knew what it meant. She decided to start with the only one she recognized, Prue. It was Tuesday so she had to go to school but she had an idea on how she could find out the address and her phone number.

When Paige got to school she had to make sure her idea was going to work. She checked the schedule outside the library door to see which teacher had been scheduled to use the library and what class hours they had it. Once she had that all figured out she went to her first few hours and during third hour she got a pass from her teacher to "go to the nurse." Instead of going to the nurse she changed the pass to be able to go to the library and used one of the computers on the back wall where the librarian couldn't see what she was doing.

She got onto the internet and went to one of the websites she had found last night to search for people. She didn't know the girl's name but she knew the house numbers and street name so she could search by that and hopefully find her. She waited for the results to show up and when they did she lost a little hope. There were 142 matching results total and after she looked through them, which took around 45 minutes she had counted 14 matching results in San Francisco. She didn't have anything else to narrow it down so she highlighted those and printed them out. She took the paper, looked at it for a moment, and went down to the nurse. She told the nurse that she had been feeling dizzy lately and had been having really strong headaches. The nurse asked her if she felt she needed to go home and she said that she did. Paige called her aunt to pick her up since her mom and dad were at work. After she hung up the nurse told her to go to her remaining classes and pick up her homework.

When she got home she changed into more comfortable clothes and shoes and checked the address again to see if she recognized any of the addresses or if she knew where any of them were. She thought she recognized two of them but she couldn't be sure and she knew where a few of them were, so she decided to start with those and move to the others if she didn't find the house out of the several ones she knew or recognized.
O0O
She was about three or four blocks from her house when she saw one of the houses where she knew where it was. She looked around at the house and how it was set up and decided that this wasn't the house she was looking for. The next one she came to wasn't it either. She went to the next few houses on her list and didn't recognize any of them. She went to the second to the last one on her list, it was one of the ones she thought she recognized. She had to walk about 4 blocks from where she was and over a couple of other streets to get to it but the weather was nice so she wasn't complaining. When she got to the street she started looking at the address on the paper and looking at the house numbers to find the one she was looking for. She was about ¾ of the way into the block when she looked up after looking at about 15 other houses and saw the house that she saw two nights ago. The girl, Prue, that had let her use the phone was sitting in the bench swing in the front of the house reading a book. Paige took a deep breath and walked across the street and across the yard. She walked up to the girl and said excuse me and then halted when the girl looked up at her and jumped a little. "Sorry I didn't mean to scare you like that," Paige said sincerely. "Oh it's ok. When I'm reading a good book I get really into it and zone out everything else." Silence. "So, uh, what are you doing here? Aren't you the girl who was here a couple of nights ago wandering the streets?" "Yea that was me. I just wanted to thank you again for letting me use your phone and everything. And also to ask you some questions."

The girl looked a little startled at this but then her expression softened. "Ok but first I don't think we've been properly introduced. I'm Prue." "Hi Prue, I'm Paige." Paige said as she put her hand out for Prue to shake it. When their hands touched Paige felt a twinge go down her spine and she dropped Prue's hand. It was like a shock, as if she had touched an electric fence or something. It wasn't very big or anything but by the look on Prue's face, she had felt it too. "What was that?" she asked. "I don't know," was the answer she got. "Let's go inside for something to drink and so you can ask me those questions you had." Prue suggested. "That would be perfect, thank you." As they walked up the sidewalk Prue said, "I have a feeling I'm going to have a few questions for you too," under her breath to herself. "What?" Paige asked. "Oh nothing just thinking out loud." "Oh, ok," Paige said.

After they had gotten some drinks, lemonade, and sat down at the table in the kitchen Prue asked Paige what kind of questions she had for her. "Oh nothing important really…well they are important I guess. Well they could be, it depends on how you look at it. They may seem kind of weird…" "Ok stop rambling and just ask one. I'm sure they can't be too weird, and if you think they're important then they are." Paige thought that over for a few seconds and agreed that she was right. "Ok here goes. Last night I had this dream…" "Dream?" Prue asked. "Yea a dream. In this dream I was running from someone or something, only I wasn't alone in this. There were three other girls running with me, and we were in the attic of some house I don't think I've ever seen before. Two of them I didn't recognize, but the third one I did recognize…it was you." "Me? It was me? Are you sure?" "Yea I'm positive. Why?" "Well I know this is going to sound really weird but I think I had the same dream but I recognized you and one of the other girls." "You did? Who was it?" "It was the girl with long dark brown hair, kinda short. Her name is Piper. She's a grade younger than me, not the most popular but she seems happy with the way she is and all. I've met her a couple of times…well not really met her met her, just seen her a couple of times and heard about her and I think I had a class with her in first quarter, she's pretty smart."

Paige got up from her chair and started pacing in front of the table. "Ok so we both had the same dream on the same night with the same people and I'm guessing the same thing happening. Right?" "Yea." "Ok so what does this mean?" "I don't know but I think we should find out. But I think we should find this Piper person and figure out who that other girl was. See if they had the same dream or not and if they have had anything weird happen to them at all." "What do you mean by weird?" "What? Oh nothing." Paige didn't think that it was nothing but she let it go. Her and Prue agreed to meet in the park across from the school after school tomorrow. Paige gave Prue her phone number and Prue gave hers to Prue in case anything came up between now and then that they thought could be important. With that taken care of Paige said good-bye and thanked her again and left.
A/N: Thank you all for hopefully waiting patiently for me to update. And I'm really really really sorry about the long update waiting time and I'll try to update sooner from now on becuz I don't want to be one of those people who post 3 or 4 chapters and then never update or it takes months for them to. So I promise that this will be the longest you'll have to wait unless I tell you or sumthing.
Your author,
Nicole : )
