CHAPTER THIRTEEN

THOUGHTS

PAIGE'S POV

I opened my eyes slowly praying that everything that happened the previous day was just one bad sick horrible weird ass dream. I would get up in my own body and get ready for my new temp job; perhaps walking another talking dog or going to work in a planet where the garbage gnomes needed to be put back in the junkyard. I take a deep breath and slowly raised my right arm and I just winced at what I saw. Fur. Again. Aggh so yesterday wasn't a dream. Damn it. I bring my other hand …. Sorry paw up and rub my furry face screeching my groan as I realize that I had another day to meet being a damn chimpanzee.

A noise alerted me that I wasn't alone in the room. I close my eyes as I steeled myself to dealing with one pissed off Piper. I didn't blame her for what she said; I did yell at her and Phoebe on the phone for butting into my life and taking it upon them to run it. So I don't blame that Piper took the one time she had to blast me for my behavior earlier in the day. She hurt me; but I knew I hurt her when I had told her that I was done with living in the Halliwell manor; that I was done with the Charmed Ones destiny and that I was done being her sister. But Piper hurt me with what she had screamed at me. She had finally voiced the thoughts that I had always thought that she and Phoebe had of me since I came into their lives.

I heard the noise once more and wondered why my big sister wasn't screaming at me all ready; Piper could see that I'm awake. Perhaps she's waiting for me to say the first word … sorry screech. She could be so childish sometimes. Well too can play this game. I decided to give the first screech but make it so loud that she'll know that I'm still too pissed off to even accept an apologies. And I'm for sure am not going to bloody apology to her. No way on this green earth. I sat up while opening my mouth to let my sister have it when the source of the noise finally showed it self. I shut my mouth as I stared at my wide eyed staring fourteen month nephew. I nodded my head and put on a soft smile for his benefit.

Wyatt moved over to lay his head on my lap. I stroke his head to let him know that I wasn't mad at him for this situation that he put me in.

PIPER'S POV

I stopped in front of Paige's closed and locked door. I raise my hand to knock on the door but I stop myself before my hand touched the wood. I was still pissed off with Paige for her treatment towards me yesterday afternoon when she realized that Phoebe and I called Sam Crowe for her to get her job back at social services. She had no right to say that she was leaving the family because we decided to butt into her life once in awhile.

My God I know that Paige had grown up as an only child and knew she was adoptive when she was at an young age. I know Paige is an very independent person who liked to handle her own heartbreak in her own way. Yes I know Paige's heart had broken when Richard dumped her after he decided to stripe his powers. But that didn't give her the right to attack us for caring for her.

I sigh as I thought back to what I had unintentional blurted out last night and I shake my head as I turn away from Paige's door and made my way to the stair case to the attic. I know that I should never had said what I said but I meant everything I said. I'm just sorry that Paige wasn't emotionally strong enough to handle a sister's anger; and knowing that the sister still and always would love her no matter what.

PHOEBE'S POV

I looked over at Chris who was flipping through the Book of Shadows with same intense expression that Piper always wore when she was so focused on something. I am just so shocked that Piper hasn't clued in to the fact that Chris is her and Leo's son. I am shocked that Leo hadn't figured out the truth about Chris when he first saw Chris's expression. I mean Leo; Piper's soul mate and husband should have recognize her expressions in one of her children. Sheesh sometimes men are so dumb. Sister's too. I mean I still blush when I realize that Paige and I were just as clue less to recognize Piper's and Leo's recognizable expressions; I mean we see them ever day in Wyatt.

I sighed as I just watched my second born nephew from the future continue searching for the demon who had gotten to Wyatt and turned him to the side of Evil. I still can't believe that sweet and innocent Wyatt decided to go to the side of evil instead of good in the future. I can't believe that with Piper, Paige and I there Wyatt still decided to turn his back on his heritage and become the source of all evil. Something must have happened to cause him to do it; but damn it all to hell Chris is keeping mum to it. So like Piper at times that it's driving me batty.

CHRIS'S POV

I knew that Aunt Phoebe was looking at me and thinking about mom. I laughed to myself as I knew that she was kicking her ass for not recognizing mom and Leo's expressions in me right off the bat. I wasn't all that surprised by it really; the trick was that I had casted a non recognizing spell the second I had time traveled back to 2004. I just couldn't believe that my cover had been blown when Aunt Phoebe went on her vision quest during the beheading horse man episode at good ol' magic school.

Speaking of magic school; God that place hadn't changed on bit when Wyatt and I attended it ourselves. God how lame is that. I shake my head and continued to flick my hand so the pages of the BOS would flip quickly on it's own. I had to keep my focus on saving my big brother here. I can't fail in my mission. My family depended on me. Only I; Christopher Perry Halliwell can save the future of the Halliwell family and perhaps the world from Wyatt. Only I can save Wyatt from himself.

I'm not egoistical at all. Well not much. Hell I'm lying to myself now. Ok so I'm a major egoistical male Halliwell. But not as much as Wyatt is. At least I don't feel that I should be the ruler of the entire world and kill everyone one and everything that looked cross eyed at me.

WYATT'S POV

I wish I could talk in a typical little boy's voice and tell Aunt Paige why I did what I did to her. I am sorry for shape changing her into an chimpanzee and I know that she upset with the fact. But I honestly thought she would see the humor in it and know why I did it. I just wanted her to stay home more with me and spend time with me was all. But I blew it. Big time.

I hate Richard for breaking Auntie Paige's heart. All she wanted to do was love him and help him in his non magical new life. But he was too selfish to allow that. He is such a big baby and he's an adult for crying out loud. Adults should have a handle on their lives and the lives around them by the time they finish childhood. Even I an mere fourteen month baby knows that!

It's Richard's fault why Auntie Paige doesn't want to be in the manor any longer. He was the one who pretty much forced her to move into his place. And than when he decides that Auntie Paige is right and he can't handle magic and he stripes his powers; he decides that he can't be around magic any longer and that includes Auntie Paige. What a cave man Richard Montana is! I never liked the man in the first place.

Especially after he informed mommy that I had been scaring her dates away with my eyes. What a poser for telling on me. That rat fink. I wanted him out of Auntie Paige's life since than; but I never dreamt that he would so ruthlessly break her heart.

PRUE'S POV

How the hell can Paige be stronger than me! I'm the freaking oldest after all. I am the one who had the most powerful powers when I was alive. I was the one who accepted being a witch fully first. I was the one who was into vanquishing as many demons and warlocks as I could. I was the one who lasted in the ring with the boxing demons while Piper was killed and Phoebe was clinging to me.

Granted I was killed way too soon. Which by the way wasn't any freaking fault of mine. Damn Phoebe for trusting Cole and the stupid Source. The source of all evil for freaking crying out loud. I wasn't around to vanquish the source with Piper and Phoebe; I had to freaking watch Paige have that honor.

But Paige Matthews isn't stronger than me not by a long shot. Hell Paige is such a baby at times; what for not allowing herself to trust Piper and Phoebe's love for her. She keeps everything locked away inside her that she doesn't all our sisters in to help her deal with some of the rotten things that were way beyond her control while she grew up. Paige was the one who freaking decided to drink and sleep around in her teen years and to rebel against her adoptive parents.

Yes I feel really bad for Paige when her parent's tragically got killed in the freak car accident and Paige had orbed out of the car to stay alive. I wish I had been there; I would have protected my baby sister from this tragedy. Why didn't I tell mom to go back and get Paige and bring her home where she belong when I realized that mom wasn't pregnant anymore.

Yes I, Prue Halliwell, knew my mother was pregnant for the fourth time. How the hell couldn't I have known I was freaking eight years old for crying out loud. Old enough to realize what the growing round bump on mom's stomach meant. I have seen it twice before than.

I didn't know that mom had an affair with her white lighter; how could I my powers were bound by than and I didn't even know about freaking magic. I just thought mom and dad hooked up once again and it resulted in a new sister. Not for one moment did I think I was having a brother; Grams had always said that the Halliwell's always had girl babies. We just didn't take the husband's name is all. So I just knew that I was in for another baby sister. I couldn't wait to share my love with the newest addition to the family.

I saw how sad mom and grams were when they came home after a weeks vacation and mom was thin once more; but I knew that my baby sister didn't die. Because although mom was heartbroken she wasn't grieving so I knew that she gave my baby sister up to someone else. I didn't know why through. I wanted to ask the reason and demanded mom to bring my baby sister home but than Phoebe had gotten sick and we had to tend to her and than one thing led to another and than the news of mom's death came.
