Chapter 7

After the destruction of the Titans silence reigned in the Manor for a few moments before the it was broken by Paige.

"Huh, why didn't we do that earlier?" asked Paige looking at Chris who shrugged slightly, surprised at his family's display of power

"Because none of you had declared yourselves gods yet" said Chris turning back and looking at Piper wondering when she had declared herself a god

"Well, that was...quick" said Leo, shaking his head at how easily the Titans were vanquished but still relieved none the less

"So does this mean we can give back our Goddess powers?" asked Paige eager to return to her witch and whitelighter powers and normal-ish life

"Yes" said Leo with a sigh of relief

"Thank god they're gone, one evil stopped one more to go" said Chris in relief, muttering the last part under his breath

"You're welcome" responded Piper, her almost instant response told the others that she had declared herself a god

"When and why did you declare yourself a god" asked Paige hoping that the powers wouldn't consume her sister

"I think when she sensed something happening to Leo" said Phoebe when Piper didn't answer

"She said something about Leo...being an elder, she seemed blank but angry" Phoebe continued wondering what Piper had meant

"What I sensed was Leo, I sensed him becoming an elder" said Piper sounding angry

Leo, Paige and Phoebe all gasped at what she said, Leo and Paige realised that Leo glowing in the heavens must have been him becoming an elder.

This made them sad as they knew that elders were not allowed to live on Earth so Leo and Piper couldn't just go back to being a married couple, as Leo would have to leave.

After another few moments of silence Piper suddenly turned to Chris, remembering that he is from the future.

"You knew this was going to happen, didn't you?" said Piper her question causing the others to turn to Chris

"Yes" said Chris knowing he was going to have to explain

"Then why didn't you do anything about it" asked Paige upset

Chris looked at his parents and aunts looking at him, he sighed "Because Leo was meant to be an elder"

"That doesn't answer the question" said Piper

"I came only to things that were not meant to be" answered Chris emphasising the last words

"How do you know it was meant to be?" asked Leo causing Chris to turn to him

"Leo, in my future you became an elder my being here did not change that" said Chris

After another short silence Chris turned to the sisters "The world needs forces of good to watch over it, can you think of a purer source of good than Leo" he asked raising an eyebrow knowing that they wouldn't deny it

Silence once again reigned in the house as Leo looked resigned, Phoebe and Paige upset and Piper was upset and very angry. As the silence grew as did Piper's anger she then sent Chris flying, Leo ran to check Chris as Piper disappeared in a whirl of wind.

A Short time later

"Thank you" Paige said in relief as the goddess powers left her "Back to normal"

"You're welcome" said Leo while thinking 'To destroy the titans I had to tie the goddess powers to the power of three and until Piper returns her powers you still technically have them and the goddess natures Paige',he chose not to add that out loud however as while true the powers were basically dormant.

Paige then sat next to Phoebe ,who having return her powers before Paige, was scrying for Piper "Any sign of her" asked Paige

"No none" answered Phoebe frustrated dropping the scrying crystal

"How is future boy" asked Paige to Leo who was by the window were a storm was howling

Leo turned to them and walked closer "He should be okay but he will need time to heal, I put him in the other room to rest up" responded Leo nodding towards the patio were Chris was resting up

Paige nodded in answer and opened her mouth to speak again when a sudden smashing sound interrupted her as tree branch was smashed straight through the window.

"Whoa!" said Phoebe and jumped startled "Where did this storm even come from" she asked

"It did appear quite suddenly" mused Paige suspiciously before the answer came to her and she realised "Guys do you remember when the titans awoke it started affecting the weather" she asked

Leo and Phoebe both nodded before she continued "Well Piper is a goddess and she is very angry so maybe she is causing this storm" she suggested

Phoebe thought and it made a lot of sense to her "Okay but how does that help us find her"

"Well if she is this angry she would probably go where she can see all the destruction..." said Paige trailing off as Leo and Phoebe nodded in understanding

They then all turned to look at the map where the scrying crystal was laid on top of a hill near the golden gate bridge, the top of the hill being the highest place in the city...
