CHAPTER TEN

LOST TEMPERS

Blue and white sparkling lights formed next to the play pen. Piper turned away from Leo and waited for her youngest sister to appear.

Blue and white sparkling lights formed in between Leo and Piper and Leo couldn't decide who to face, Paige or Chris. So he just stared at Piper's left side of her face.

Paige looked up at Piper with raised eyes and her paws folded tightly against her chest.

"Another demon vanquished." Chris clapped his hands together after he finished forming.

"The Elder's want us to force Wyatt to shape change you back." Piper told Paige.

Than why don't you. Paige's eyes shot at Piper.

"We are not going to force Wyatt into doing magic." Piper said reading her sister's eyes correctly.

Paige's eyes harden. She agreed whole heartily where Wyatt was concerned. But she was just so damned tired of being a chimpanzee was all. Besides she had some packing to do if she wanted to move out of the manor

Paige had wanted out of the manor that very day. Granted she didn't have a place to live lined up. But Paige figured that she could sense Sam and orb to him. Paige figured her father would have no problem with having his daughter stay with him for a little while

"I was telling Piper, that we need to find a way to protect the girls until Wyatt decides to shape change Paige back." Leo looked first at Paige and than over at Chris.

Chris nodded his head. "I was thinking along those lines as I was vanquishing the demon. How about setting up the crystals around the house?"

"No we need the crystals to remain in the house." Leo shook his head.

"Of course." Chris blushed. He meanitly kicked himself for his thoughtfulness suggestion. He very well knew that the crystals should never leave the manor.

"Stop looking at me like that Paige. I will not order my son to use magic." Piper folded her own arms across her chest.

Paige spat.

Piper finally lost her temper. "If you didn't get all upset over Phoebe and me helping you. Than Wyatt would NOT have decided that you needed a shape changing episode."

"So you finally admit that you told Wyatt to shape changing me into a monkey." Paige screeched and slapped herself across the head.

"Chimpanzee." Chris automatically said as he saw Paige slap herself

"God if I had thought shape changing you into an animal would keep you here at the manor and here with your family than yes I would have asked Wyatt to shape change you." Piper shouted.

"I knew it!" Paige screeched at the top of her lungs.

Wyatt suddenly let out screaming.

"Great! Just great Paige. Now look at what you have done. " Piper stomped over to the playpen and picked her son up.

Paige's eyes squinted up into her older sister's angry eyes.

"What's going on here?" Phoebe said rushing into the attic.

"Paige set Wyatt screaming with her horrible screeching." Piper stormed not taking her eyes from the chimpanzee that was her baby ½ sister

"Well if you hadn't lost your temper, Piper, than Paige wouldn't have lost hers." Phoebe said meaningfully.

"I don't need you sticking up for me." Paige screeched. She felt bad for screeching at the top of her voice; but she had to be heard over Wyatt's screaming.

"Shut up Paige!" Piper shouted. "Can't you tell that your damn screeching is hurting Wyatt's ears?"

Paige stared wide eyed at Piper.

Wyatt stopped screaming and looked wide eyed at his mother.

"You are the most ungrateful person I have ever met in my life." Piper continued to shout in the silence of the attic.

"Phoebe and I didn't have to pack up Prue's room and give the room to you. We could have allowed you to stay in that God awful of a loft that you called home."

Leo opened his mouth to break in but Piper rushed on turning a rosy pink.

"Phoebe and I didn't have to open our hearts to you. We could have told the Elder's that we were DONE with being the Charmed Ones after Prue died.

"But damn it to all hell, Paige, we didn't. We opened our hearts to you. We opened our home to you." Tears fell from Piper's eyes.

Chris wanted to stop his mom from screaming at his Aunt Paige. But what could he do without telling his mom and dad who he truly was.

"But you are so ungrateful, that the first sign of someone else trying to run even one small part of your life, and you are up and out of there. To hell with this." Piper snapped her fingers.

"God, Paige is that all you freaking do, runaway when your damn precious independence is threaten." Piper felt her face grow hotter.

"So Phoebe and I thought that if you went to social services for a while was a good idea. God forgive us for caring." Piper shook her head.

"I hope that Wyatt never shape changes you back Paige Matthews. Not only can you NOT be able to move out of the manor. You won't be able to leave the family!" Piper finally shut her mouth.

Paige orbed out of the attic. But not before Piper saw the deep hurt in her eyes.
