The Lost Ones

Chapter nine: Plans Change

Ellie looked at the sisters each were in the places Chris told her they would take. Piper was sitting next to her, Paige was hovering over her older sister's head, and Phoebe was standing by the stairs to make a quick retreat if things got too much for her. Looking to Chris Ellie saw that he was using his telekinesis to place the charmed crystals were they need them. Making it impossible for the sisters to use their magic.

'God I love temporary binding spells. Okay let's get this show on the road.'

Ellie took a deep breath and began to hum, when she started out of the corner of her eye she saw that Paige was eyeing her closely, Ellie turned herhead towards Paigesparing her a condescending smirk before she moved her hands in a gesture similar to Piper's. In doing so she was able to freeze everyone in the room. They didn't know they were frozen until Ellie stood up and Piper's hand never moved from it was out stretched as if holding on to something. It had been holding on to something Ellie's shoulder.

'What the Hell' was the one thought that went through all the sisters mind at the same time.

'Freezing the sisters easy, getting Liam and Grmin hereon time before they are unfrozennot so much. Oh…Ellie you are an idiot you used your phone use it again.'

The sisters couldn't believe it they were frozen.

'I knew it we couldn't trust her I knew it. I'm so going to tell Chris and Piper I told you so. Who in there right mind let's a demon and its relative spawn into their house. Oh…I know who my ever lovable however insane older sister. Andnow the bitch from hell is going to kill us.' Was Paige's silent rant, she hated the fact that they were now at the mercy of a demon, or was it that they were at the mercy of a demon who had made it very clear that she hated them, and not for the usual I'm a demon you're a witch let's try and I kill each other. But you vanquished my brother, and I would like you use your guts for shoe laces.

'What's happened why can't I move? Oh…my God she froze us…how is that possible I mean only witches have the power to freeze. Oh god what if one of her powers is to absorb other people's powers I was sitting next to her, she said she can read people with skin to skin contact what if she was able to absorb my powers by my touching her. God Piper you are such and idiot. How could you trust a demon? You willing believed every line she sold you. And now…oh God…Wyatt…she's going to take Wyatt.' Piper's heart beat was going a mile a minute she couldn't believe she had put her son in so much danger.

'Why hadn't I called Leo to take him away or even Daryl? Instead I had let a demon into my house and that very same demon now has us frozen and at her mercy.'

'Oh…God here we go again. What is it with this family first Cole now his sister?' Phoebe tried to focus her energy to break the hold had on her but found that she couldn't.

But what the sisters discovered unlike Piper's power they could see and hear what Ellie was doing. They saw her get out her phone and dial a number when they heard the name of the person she addressed their heart beat shot up once again.

"Liam everything is ready…get Grmin." With that she flipped her phone shut.

'Oh I don't like this now it's not just one demon but three. Not good, so not good.' If the sisters knew that they all had thought the same thing at the same time they might have been able to understands the reason behind Ellie's small smile.

Feeling that the sisters were too spread apart for the next part in the plan. Ellie waved her hand around the room moving them to the center of living-room the sisters now found themselves standing around the coffee table.

"I hope you don't mind the change in location? But you see for what you are about to help me with requires that you stand closer together."

'You bitch!' thought Paige

"Really Paige is that any way to think of your elders?" Ellie asked in an amused tone of voice with a raised eyebrow and a smirk.

Just as the sisters were getting over the shock that not only had Ellie frozen them but she, and used telekinesis to move them, she was also able to read their thoughts.

'This keeps getting better and better.' Paige was now really regretting that she hadn't put up a bigger fight from the get go. She had let her sisters and Chris sway her from her own beliefsand the end result saw defiantly not to her liking.

''Ellie what the hell do you think you are doing? This isn't what we agreed to.'' Chris thought he had always known that Ellie had the power to read mind and now was no exception.

"What do you think we agreed to Chris? I said I'd help you and I am like the sisters you to are frozen meaning they'll never have reason not to trust you."

"This wasn't the plan you were going to get the sisters to scry for Ben's mom…I know that Ben's mom is Phoebe. But you were going to go about it differently. Remember get them to trust you first then drop the bomb. We talked about it for a long time remember."

"Yeah I remember. But plans change."

Chris's Flashback:

He'd been in the past a couple of months he still wasn't any closer to finding who turned Wyatt evil he was getting desperate. He needed help and he knew were to find it.

Standing outside of an old Victorian house, the house looked much better then it did in the future, looking at the house he understood why Ellie never parted with the house. It was painted a bright white instead of dirty gray paint that was pealing off the old house's walls. The shutters as well as the door were painted a deep forest green. Looking at the future headquarters of the resistance Chris couldn't help shake his head. Ellie and Will were right the house had seen better days.

Taking a deep breath Chris walked up to the door he didn't know what he was going to say to Ellie then he remembered he didn't have to all he had to do was shake her hand and she would know everything.

Taking one more deep breath Chris knocked on the green door of 3232 Golden Lane.

He waited for what seemed like an eternity stuffing his hands in his pockets in the hope that it curb the nerves thatdecided to play havoc with his stomach.

Just as he was about to knock again, the door opened and there stood Ellie, with Ben standing right behind her. Perhaps a better description would be he was clinging to her leg. It was a shock to see Ellie look so different instead of her hair being tied back in a sever bun it hung lose down to her waist, instead of the dark blue jeans and long sleeved shirts was a tank top and a knee length spring skirt. Gone were her durable Doc. Martins, in their place where a pair of light weight flip-flops. Seeing her Chris couldn't helpfeel complete, seeing Ellie full of life was more shocking then seeing his mother and aunts alive and well. Gone was the battered and bruised soldier, in her place stood a beautiful, vibrant young woman.

"Can I help you?"

"Yeah… I'm Chris Perry I'm here concerning your brother Cole Turner." Chris extended his hand knowing she would take it. He knew that if he mentioned Cole she'd want to shake his hand to get a read on him.

Just like he had expected Ellie shook his hand. When he saw her eyes close he knew she was being pulled into his past seeing the things that happened to him, would happen to him if she didn't help. When she finally opened her eyes they were unfocused, shaking her head she looked at Chris and pulled him into a hug. When they pulled a part, Ellie looked directly into his eyes and said,

"Thank-you for coming to be Christopher. Well it seems we've got yourself between a rock and a hard place. Come on in and will take about it."

It was on that day that they came up with the plan to help Wyatt. But when Ben had been attacked that changed all their plans. They had originally planed that Ellie would save the sisters from some demon or other. Gain the sisters trust then they would work Will into the equation possible as love interest for Paige she never got married in his time and was always in love with Will but never did anything about it because he was a demon and it went against her moral code, Chris always thought it was a matter of fear and self-righteousness, but plans changed Ben had been attacked by the sorceress making it soElliewouldhave toquickly revaluate everything. They had always planed on telling the sisters that Ben was both Phoebe's and Cole's son. But by then the sisters were meant to have fallen in love with little Benny that it wouldn't be a problem.

'God damn it why do plans have to change?' Chris thought desperately

"Because life would be easy ifthings stayed according to plan." He heard Ellie say in his head.

"Well isn't this a lovely get together. Ellie I'm hurt you didn't invite me. Especially seeing as you've got the charmed ones all ripe and ready for the killing." Hissed a voice in the shadows.

When the sisters saw Ellie's posture stiffen and her eyes widen they knew who ever it was, was bad news.

Collectively they thought, 'we're screwed.'
