Ch. 10

Warning!! TIme Travel

Thnk 2 for the reviews…I hope this chapter will bring in more reviews, because it seems that with every chapter my reviews decrease. I believe this story is nearing it's end. I'm just writing a new chapter every week, so I don't know what the next chapter will contain. Nor do I really know what I'm about 2 write, but oh well enjoy…

They orbed with future Paige to the manor and saw Paige looking triumphantly at the book of shadows.

They all glanced at the book only to realize that she had found the spell to travel back in time. Perfect plan, right? That was about all they could actually do. If they got Piper and Leo together now would it be the same Chris they all loved or a totally different kid. They couldn't risk it really. Chris deserved their best try.

Piper immediately stated, "I'm going back with you. Who else is going?" Immediately Present Paige raised her hand. Phoebe shyly hesitated.

She said with a sigh, "Someone needs to stay here. Future Paige and I will stay here. I don't why, but I'm getting the feeling that we need to stay here." Piper looked at her strangely, but decided to trust Phoebe's gut feelings they usually were right. Future Paige was still angry over Chris' "disappearance". She wasn't listening to them, so she held no objections to staying. Plus she was too much of a wreck to try to save him even if that was all she wanted to do.

In a matter of ten minutes, Paige and Piper were off gallivanting in the past. They tumbled through the portal. Of course, their spells always have a way of backfiring. It seemed as thought they had gone too far in the past, because everything in the attic were new antics. What should have been rusted or scratched was now brand new. Well, everything except that old dilapidated couch that had almost always occupied the attic.

Piper sighed with frustration…they didn't have time for this. No, they had to save her baby boy. She frowned in confusion when she thought of him like that. It wasn't just an hour ago to her that she only had one baby boy, but not she was already calling the once mistrusted, neurotic white lighter her baby boy. It almost scared her…almost, but instead she reveled in the fact that her baby boy was hero who had saved his brother.

Paige sighed not really sure about being this far in the past. It was different in the 60's when her Grams knew nothing of her existence. Now she might ask why wasn't Prue with them…well, actually she would also ask why Phoebe wasn't either. Hmm…maybe this would work.

Paige looked around while Piper almost fumed. Finally after Paige kept scrambling through the room, Piper asked curiously, "What cha looking for?" Paige stopped for a moment and sighed.

She stated slightly flustered, but more so sarcastic then not, "Of course, Grams doesn't keep a calendar in the attic." for a moment the situation slipped Piper's mind as she let Paige's usual witty sarcasm get to her. She chuckled a bit.

Suddenly they heard a door slam downstairs. Apparently the past had been out somewhere. That would explain why Penny hadn't come barging in as soon as she heard a bump in the attic. Piper sighed remembering how hard it always was to convince Penny that they weren't evil. It was always the same questions.

Small voices could be heard, so they knew that the small charmed ones were in the house. Piper sighed while she didn't notice that Paige looked extremely nervous. Paige peeked over at Piper…only to see another sigh. She look worried as well, but for other reasons. Paige had no doubt that they wouldn't save Chris. The had time on their side…what could go wrong?

Paige held her hand out for Piper to take. Piper, however, just looked at it questioningly. Paige responded with a quick you should know this answer, "It won't help our standing with Grams if we come down from the attic." It didn't long before Piper understood and they orbed down in the bushes where they could hide from spying eyes. Quickly and somewhat impatiently Piper rang the doorbell.

They waited, and soon they heard Penny's unyielding voice yelling for them to hold on. She opened the door and politely smiled and acknowledged them. Paige briefly smiled back, but Piper only nodded towards her grandmother grimly for she was still concentrating on Chris. Penny said almost concerned, "How may I help you?"

Piper immediately spoke up, "We need to use your book. Maybe a few ingredients as well." Paige looked dismayed, so Piper just glared right back at her. Penny noticed this exchange, but was still shocked at what Piper had just said. Paige sloppily and without covertness stomped on Piper's toe. Piper looked near crying, but not because of the toe.

Penny spoke up seeing the tears, "Well, before I even let you in my home, I need your names." Piper sighed once again.

Paige spoke with a mild fierceness that almost mimicked that of Penny, "Quit sighing, please. We have time on our side. We're going to save him. I've been working with Phoebe and my future self for a couple months to save him. You and Leo are too stubborn."

Before Piper could respond, a stunned Penny stated, "Did you just say Phoebe and your future self?" Piper sighed once again, and this caused Paige to sigh as well.

Paige said cheekily, "You get used to it." she wore a wide smile as she tried to ease her way into Penny's trust. They didn't really want to be held up by Penny's redundant q and a. Paige looked up at Penny, "If we told you our names you wouldn't believe us. We'll be out of your hair soon enough. Try to blast us with your telekinesis!" She waved her hand probably five times until she gave up and accepted that the girls were good.

She opened the door wider and let them go in. She was taking a huge leap of faith that honestly Piper didn't think she would ever take. Somehow Penny felt that she could trust these women, but still she was going to keep a close eye on them.

TBC….

Next time we'll see how Future Paige and Phoebe are doing…:D

Peace
