Chapter 4
After the orbs appeared the charmed ones noticed that they were in a wide open spaced cave and there were Elders gathered in little clusters talking amongst themselves.
"Huh, how did we get here" asked a surprised Phoebe
"Well we appeared in orbs so it was probably Leo" said Paige
"No way, Leo doesn't have that kind of power" said Piper
"Normally he doesn't, he has it because he's been Up there for a while. Being up there can give Whitelighters a power boost but normally they don't use it as it is the Elder's powers and not simple Whitelighter's" said Roland as he approached from talking with a few Elders
"Thank god for that" said Phoebe but then laughed at the choice of her words
"Where are we anyway?" asked Piper again
"This is Sanctuary" said Roland while spreading his arms
"Sanctuary?" asked Piper confused
"Yes, Leo built this safe house to hide us and the rest of the Elders from the Titans" said Roland "I'm actually surprised at how well Leo is working, I was actually one of the Elders who weren't exactly a big fan of him as he married a witch and all, no offense" said Roland looking at a very irritated Piper
"Offense taken!" said Piper huffing
"Don't mind her, her temper is a bit fiery these days " explained Paige
"It's okay, I don't mind" responded Roland calmly
"Well, looks like not all Elders are pain in the asses" commented Piper
"Piper!" screeched Paige and Phoebe together but Roland did not look offended
"Uh…thanks, I guess?" said Roland "I cannot believe that Leo turned you three into Goddesses though, last time when we turned mortals into Goddesses, they wouldn't give up their power" said Roland
"Yeah, well if he hadn't turned them into Goddesses, the world would end up being plunged into darkness " commented Chris as he orbed in
"Chris, how did you get in here" asked Paige surprised
"Leo, he asked me to make sure that he got you all out safely" said Chris
At this Roland looked at the young man who seemed to know the charmed ones but he did not know how.
"Uh, who are you?" asked Roland
"Me? I'm from the future, Chris Perry, I'm half Witch and half Whitelighter" said Chris
"Another witch-whitelighter, from the future?" asked Roland surprised
"Yep, though he says witchlighter" said Phoebe twirling her hair
"Why have you come here then? Time travelling is dangerous" warned Roland
"I came here to change the future for the better" said Chris cryptically
"That's it, that's all you're going to say" said Roland incredulously
"Yep, that's all been saying it to us, feels frustrating to be in the cryptic end isn't it?" said Piper smiling, she had always found it annoying when they would always give them cryptic answers
This caused Roland to roll his eyes at that
"What I don't understand is why did Leo ask you to come" said Roland confused
"Because Leo is dealing with the situation and he wanted someone here in case we need any help or need to contact him" said Phoebe before Chris could
"Hmmm, what reason did Leo choose you?" said Roland looking at the new comer
"Because he apparently saved my life" said Paige
"What?" asked Roland shocked
"Yep" said Piper
"But how" said Roland, now observing Chris
"Paige was turned to stone and killed in my future, I got here just after she was turned to stone and managed to stop the titan from killing Paige" said Chris
"Oh!" said Roland looking at Chris, glad he had kept the power of three from being destroyed again
"What?" asked Piper, looking how Roland was staring at Chris
"I was just surprised to hear that Paige would've died, either way I am sorry for how I have treated Leo, I will never sell him short again that's for sure, without Leo's quick thinking and help, we'd all me dead. I believe he is sensing all the other remaining Elders too" said Roland now looking to Piper so she would know he is sincere
"Aww isn't that sweet, your hubby is a hero" said Phoebe talking to Piper
At this Chris raised his eyebrows whereas Piper gave Phoebe a blank look
"You make me want to gag" said Piper glaring at Phoebe whereas she simply rolled her eyes
"You're not the only one" said Chris to Piper "That was an odd thing to say Phoebe" he added at their questioning looks
At which Piper raised her eyebrows and Phoebe glared at Chris
"Oh so you're teaming up with Piper, what is up with all the Whitelighters siding with Piper" said Phoebe
"Uh, I believe you should focus on the Titans" said Roland trying to bring them back on track
"Exactly, we need a game plan" said Chris looking at Piper, Phoebe and Paige
"Sure, I just have one final question before we go in the game plan" said Phoebe
"What?" asked Chris
Phoebe then looked at Roland
"What are you wearing under that robe?" asked Phoebe, fluttering her eye lashes
"Phoebe!" shouted Piper horrified, Paige looked surprised at this
Chris almost choked but Roland simply gave Phoebe a blank look, knowing she was being overwhelmed by her Aphrodite powers and wasn't offended
"More robes" said Roland, before he turned around and walked away, leaving only Piper, Chris, Paige and Phoebe
"Yeah…we definitely need a plan, how are we gonna do this?" asked Paige
"I don't know we gave it everything we had" said Phoebe
"Actually, you didn't give it everything you had" commented Chris
"What?" said Piper looking at Chris
"You only tried defending yourselves from the Titans, but never actually tried to attack them with your powers" said Chris having used his powers to sense what had happened
"Hey…you are actually right, we only created a shield to protect ourselves but we never really attack them with our powers" said Piper
"Exactly, Paige you are Athena, Goddess of War so fighting is in your blood currently, Piper, you are Gaia, Goddess of Earth itself, you control the atmosphere, the ground the Titans are walking in, if you unleash your power they will be nothing" said Chris encouraging his mom
"Yeah now I feel useless…" said Phoebe "I don't have any power that I could use against the Titans, my power of Goddess of Love is useless, why couldn't Leo give me a powerful Goddess power!" complained Phoebe
"No, that's not true, one of your Goddess powers include Empathy, you might be able to use that to manipulate them a little" said Chris trying to cheer her up
"I do? Cool" said Phoebe feeling better
"Not to mention we have a Goddesses of the Earth and Nature, you and I know Gaia was one of the strongest Goddesses, seeing as we have the power of three even in this form, we have more power against them" said Paige, perking up even more "With that, I think our probabilities of winning this battle has increased slightly"
"Alright, let's go back in the Manor then figure something out, I don't like this cave" said Piper
All of them nodded, Phoebe beamed away, Paige disappeared in a lightening bolt and Chris orbed while Piper disappeared in twirling winds.
Back at the Manor
Leo was concentrating hard, with his eyes closed to sense the other Elders from the Manor, he had originally gone up there to sense them but he knew his wife would be agitated, so after orbing them to safety he decided to orb back down and sense them.
He suddenly heard noises and opened his eyes to see that the girls and Chris had returned.
"How did it go?" asked Leo, standing next to Piper instinctively at which Piper smiled
"Not that good unfortunately" said Paige slightly annoyed at the failed attempt
"We did save the Elder but our shield almost fell just before you orbed us out" said Piper
"Wait…are you okay?" asked Leo worriedly looking at Piper before looking at her sisters
"Gee thanks for the concern for us Leo" said Phoebe sarcastically hoping to lighten the mood
"Oh calm down, she is his wife it only makes sense that he would check on her first" said Paige stating it as a matter of fact
"I know I was just kidding" said Phoebe
"Guys, can we please focus! Titans might end up ruling the world if you guys don't fix it" said Chris
"What? You did come back to help" said Leo
"I know that but I am only here to be in the sidelines, helping, helping you all whenever I am needed" said Chris irritated
"I'm gonna go check on Wyatt, then we can make a game plan" said Piper
Kissing Leo quickly, she went upstairs to find her son
As she came in Wyatt's room, her eyes went wide when she saw his shield up and Cronus lurking next to Wyatt
"Get the hell away from my son, NOW!" shouted Piper angrily, as soon as she said that, her voice echoed and a forced of wind blasted Cronus away from Wyatt, her power unleashed from her anger
As soon as she said that, two sets of orbs, hearts and lighting appeared and Phoebe, Paige, Chris and Leo appeared next to Piper
Leo orbed to near Wyatt instantly to take Wyatt. Cronus, having gotten up again, recovering from the blast got up and aimed another stream of fire towards Leo
"No" shouted Piper and the wind deviated the fire back at Cronus
Just then Demetrius appeared, having sensed Cronus
Demetrius sent a stream of lightening bolts towards Piper, but Paige countered Demetrius' with her own electrokinesis, hers overcoming his electricity
"We must retreat" muttered Cronus to Demetrius
They both seemed to agree and before the charmed ones could attack them anymore, they disappeared
"Well…I guess we're going to need a game plan very soon" said Leo carrying Wyatt
"Understatement of the year" muttered Paige
