Thanks for the reviews. This chapter gives you a little more reason as to why Paige was sent back. I hope it's not too confusing but I promise the next chapters will help.

Chapter 3 Revelations

Past 2000

Paige looked up, seeing all three of her sisters now watching her. Prue and Phoebe watched her more intently than Piper. Piper seemed to be in her own little world. She couldn't help but feel cheated now. She hated this. Her sisters were right here, her family was right here together in a time where she knew her other self felt alone. It was just a family that she wasn't allowed to be part of, at least not yet.

"You ok Paige?" Prue asked as she pulled up a chair at the table.

"I…um.." She couldn't take it, this was too much, even for her. Paige stood up, rushing past the sisters. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have come." She hurried out the door, running now. Running away from the family she should have been with all along.

"Wait." Prue stood up trying to follow after her. "Paige, wait!" Too late, she was gone. Prue watched as the girl disappeared into the shadows down the sidewalk.

"So that was your innocent?" Phoebe asked as she walked up to her sister.

"Something's not right, I know it." Prue watched as Piper walked up, taking her jacket from the coat rack.

"Good idea, Piper, we'll go find her." Prue started to follow but stopped when Piper spoke up.

"I'm not following her, she obviously doesn't want our help. Now if you'll excuse me, I still have a club to run."

"Wait." Phoebe reached out, stopping her sister's exit. "Prue found her for a reason and that's usually to help. What's with you?"

"What's with me, are you kidding me?" Piper eyes went from showing no emotion to now overflowing with rage and more so than anything, pain. "The elder's can't possibly think I'm still in for this little witchy ride. I'm done. They took Leo, as far as I'm concerned they can take the power of three right along with him."

"What about our destiny?" Prue searched her sister's eyes, hoping to find some part of the old Piper still in there.

"I don't want to be part of it." With that she turned leaving two confused and worried sisters.

Present Day

Victor had picked the boys up earlier. Piper had explained the situation and he was more than happy to keep an eye on them for a day or two. Phoebe sat with Piper in the attic, both hoping that any minute Paige would wake up. She didn't though. If it weren't for the slight rise and fall of her chest you wonder if she was still breathing.

"What do you think she's doing?" Phoebe was trying to ease her sister's mind. Maybe talking about it would help them both.

"I don't know, probably trying to figure out how to get home."

"Yea, I envy her though, she's with Prue right now."

"Yea Pheebs but you forget, she can't tell Prue she's her little sister. I bet that's killing her inside."

"What do you mean?"

"Think about it, she's back in a time where she didn't exist to us." Piper sighed as she turned to look at Paige.

They both sat there in silence, wondering just exactly what their baby sister was going through right then.

Piper remembered that part of her life. It was when she didn't want to care about magic. Deep inside she had never stopped caring, but she was so angry at the elders for taking Leo from her she didn't want to be a part of it anymore.

Past 2000

Paige walked in, noticing that the club hadn't changed much at all. Maybe it was a little busier in her time, but it still looked the same. She walked over to an empty table and took a seat.

"Can I get you something?"

Paige looked up to see a waitress there. "Yea, I'll have a soda." Silently she wondered if that was the same one who stalked Prue. Phoebe had told her about how some chick was obsessed with Prue and tried to kill her. Great, just something else I can't warn them about. She smiled as the girl brought her a drink. She watched as couples danced on the floor, she wondered why she was sent here. Why was she sent to this time? She was so wrapped up in her own thoughts that she never noticed Piper walk in.

Piper walked into her office, taking her jacket off and sitting down behind the desk. She smiled when she saw one of Leo's flannel shirts still hanging on the back of her chair. This wasn't fair. She loved him, more than she had anyone before. She looked to the ceiling, wondering if they could hear her. "Why are you so hell bent on seeing all of us miserable? I'm a good person, I was a good witch, and I would have been a hell of a wife. What gives you the right to take that away?" She stared, wondering if they would give her any sign that they could have heard her. She jumped a little as the office door was pushed open.

Leigh, on of the bartenders, was standing there. "Piper, hey, sorry to bother you but I have to leave a little early. I have finals tomorrow. Is that ok?"

"Sure." Piper nodded.

"You ok?" Leigh watched as Piper tried to give her a smile.

"Yea, good luck on that final." She watched as the girl turned from her and the door slowly started to close. Piper barely saw her sitting at the table alone. She got up and walked to the doorway, pushing the door gently out of her way. There she was, that Paige girl from earlier. She watched, knowing there was something familiar about her but not able to place it. I wonder if she is an innocent. Piper shook her head, walking back in her office and closing the door. She looked back to the ceiling. "I'm not falling for it. Let one of your other precious witches take care of her." She gritted her teeth as she sat back down behind the desk, burying herself in paperwork she hadn't done.

Paige still sat there, alone with her soda. She could barely keep track of her thoughts when she was interrupted by that sound. That sound that literally made her head ache. That stupid jingle she got when someone was calling for her. But then again, who would call for her. No one in this time knew she was a white lighter. She made her way outside to where she knew no one would see. She closed her eyes and focused on the sound. Within seconds she felt the rush of her body disappearing into orbs. When she opened her eyes she was standing at the top of Golden Gate Bridge.

"Paige?"

She turned, seeing a face she had thought she would never see again. "Leo?"

"So it's true, you are a charmed one?" Looking in her eyes was just like looking into Pipers.

"Wait, how do you.."

"The elders told me, they know you're here." He watched as panic came over her. "You haven't changed anything, not yet at least."

"So, you know about the future?"

"Sort of, they let me see some of it, but I'll only remember it while you're here. Once you're spell has played out, they'll make me forget." He looked at her, knowing there were certain things he shouldn't ask but he couldn't fight the temptation. "Am I really with Piper in the future?"

Paige had to smile, this was the same as the love struck Leo from her time. "Yea. At least you were up until yesterday when the angel of destiny took you. I cast a spell to help heal Piper's broken heart, but it sent me here."

"Oh." Leo couldn't stand knowing that Piper was hurting in this time, let alone in the future. He shook these thoughts away, knowing he had to help Paige now. "About that, you're spell worked, just not the way you thought it would. The reason you are here is to help heal you're sister's broken heart. The only problem is that the spell brought you to the past, to the first time Piper's heart was truly broken."

"How am I suppose to help her, she doesn't know me. I'm just a stranger to her right now. I'm a stranger to all of them."

Leo could feel the pain in her voice. This couldn't be an easy place for her to be. "I know it's hard, but you'll figure it out. They may not know that you're their sister, but the connection is still there. No magic can take that away. You may even find a way to heal a part of your own heart that you didn't know was broken.

"You mean Prue?"

Leo nodded. "They elders know they cheated you. This is a past that you should have been part of, but weren't. You being here, getting to meet Prue, is kind of their way of apologizing."

Paige felt the tears sting her eyes. "I never wanted to just meet Prue." She reached up, running a hand through her hair. "I wanted to be a part of what they were. This just seems like a cruel joke to me. I can see her, talk to her, even touch her, but I can't tell her who I really am."

Leo walked closer, placing his hand on her shoulder. "I know, but this is better than never getting to see her or know her, isn't it?" He watched as she tried to dry her tears. "You can do this Paige."

She smiled a little. Leo was always good with the pep talks. "How am I still able to orb? I've done this time travel thing once before and didn't have any of my powers then."

"That's something the elders did. They knew you would need someone to guide you, the only way for that to happen was for you to have your powers. Right now I've been reassigned, to you. I'm forbidden from seeing the sisters though, forbidden from seeing Piper."

"So how do I help her?"

"That's for you to find out. You have to follow your heart Paige."

She watched as he disappeared from the bridge leaving her there to sort things out in her mind. The sooner she helped Piper, the sooner she could go home. She closed her eyes and concentrated. Follow your heart Paige. She felt the familiar pull as her body dissolved into orbs, she knew where she needed to go first. Piper.
