"Halliwell? As in the owner of this club?" Paige asked. But her question went unanswered because as soon as their hands touched Phoebe was thrown into a premonition.
Premonition:
"Patty I don't want to give her up. She's our daughter."
"I don't want to give her up either. But we don't have a choice Sam. We need to protect her. We broke the rules, white lighters and witches can not be together, never mind have children together! I'm afraid of what the elders would do if we kept her. They could take her away, and I just wouldn't be able to handle that. I want her to be somewhere safe and away from magic..." The Charmed Ones mother said, but she could not continue because she had begun to sob.
Sam reached over and hugged Patty in an effort to comfort her. "You're right Patty."
"I don't want to be." Patty wept.
Phoebe's premonition then drifted to an old looking church. Her mom with a baby in her arms, Sam, and Sister Rose were all standing near the front of the church.
"Do not worry, angels, I will find your daughter a safe home." Sister Rose said reassuringly.
"Thank you Sister. I have one last favor; please name her Paige. And..." Tears swam down Patty's face as she struggled to continue. "Let us say goodbye." Patty then turned her attention back to her newborn daughter. "I will always have you in my heart Paige, please know that we had no other choice." Patty then bent over and kissed the child's forehead. Sam did the same. Patty reluctantly handed Paige to Sister Rose. With one last look at their daughter, Sam and Patty were gone in a swirl of white and blue lights.
"Hello? Earth to Phoebe? Are you okay?" Paige asked since Phoebe had been sitting with her eyes closed for the last minute.
Phoebe's eyes shot open as the black and white past was replaced with the colorful present. She jumped up from her seat. "Uh, yeah, fine. But I should get home to my sisters and try to work things out." Phoebe said, trying to come up with an excuse. She began to walk away from the bar when she realized she needed to have some way to find Paige again.
"Um, would you mind calling me sometime tonight? So I have someone to vent to if me and my sisters don't reconcile?" Phoebe asked when she couldn't think of a better way to ask.
"Sure." Paige answered, but Phoebe had already scratched her number down on a P3 napkin and handed it to Paige. Phoebe jogged all the way to the top of the stairs and quickly called for a taxi.
"PIPER? PRUE?" Phoebe shouted as soon as she walked through the wooden doors to their house.
Prue and Piper gave each other a look before they both started running down the stairs. When they got to the hallway they nearly tackled Phoebe.
"Oh thank God you are okay!" Piper said.
Phoebe shrunk back from the embrace. "Guys we don't have time for this. I just had one major premonition." Phoebe then quickly blurted out the story about Paige and the premonition she had.
"Oh my God. So are you saying..." Piper said before getting cut off by Prue.
"That we have another sister?" Prue asked, shocked by the story.
"Yes. No. Well I think so! She'd be our half sister because her father was Sam."
"That's it. We need answers. I'm summoning Mom." Prue decided. Following suit, the two younger sisters followed their big sister up to the attic.
"Here these words, hear my cry, spirit from the other side. Come to me, I summon thee, cross now the great divide." Prue chanted from the Book of Shadows with much intensity.
A swirl of white lights appeared and a voice rang out: "Hello, my darlings."
"Grams? No offense but we summoned Mom." Prue said, annoyed.
"Yes I know." Grams sighed as she fully appeared. "But the elders have forbid her to come down, now that you three have found Paige."
The sisters gasped.
"So she is our sister?" Prue managed to get out.
"Yes. Has Phoebe's premonitions ever been wrong?"
Prue ignored the question. "Mom gave her up? How could she do that? She shares our blood, our powers!" Prue questioned.
"You all know that your mother didn't have a choice. She had to protect Paige. The elders would have never allowed her to live with you, it could have changed your destiny as the Charmed Ones. And yes, she does have powers. She's half witch and half white lighter." Grams explained.
"Why is she allowed to stay now?" Prue again asked Grams, looking for all the answers.
"Destiny brought the four of you together anyway, even after your mother gave her away. Destiny is something the elders are not willing to mess with."
An hour later...
The three Halliwell sisters were sitting in the living room; Phoebe was leaning against Piper's shoulder on the couch, and Prue was curled up near the fire.
"Can you believe we have another sister?" Phoebe asked for the twentieth time that night.
Prue groaned and Piper rolled her eyes. "Phoebe we are just as surprised as you, as we've told you every time you've asked." Prue said playfully.
"I know, sorry. But I'm getting anxious waiting for her to call. That was stupid of me, I should have gotten her number instead." Phoebe replied.
"No worries. We can sit here for three years by the phone until she calls." Piper teased. They all laughed, until the phone rang.
Phoebe took a deep breath and then picked up the phone. "Paige?" Phoebe quickly hit the speaker button so her sisters could listen in.
"Ha ha, yeah. How'd you know it was me? Are you psychic or something?"
Phoebe, Piper, and Prue exchanged nervous glances.
"Ha ha, I like to call it the magic of caller ID. Anyway, I was wondering if you could come over tonight." Phoebe said coolly.
"Aw, are you still fighting with your sisters?" Paige asked, concerned.
"Well...sort of. I actually wanted you to come meet them."
Paige thought this was weird, but for some reason she trusted Phoebe, and she wanted to help her.
"Okay sure." Phoebe gave her their address. "I'll be over in twenty." Paige said.
AN: Sorry i took a few days longer to update than I promised. Thanks for the reviews :) And i'm sorry charmedchick34, but i will definitly have the 'event' in the next chapter. I had intended on putting it in this one, but i decided not to rush it. Next chapter should be up in the next few days.
I also realize that Phoebe shouldn't be getting premonitions since they have no powers, but in my story only the active powers were taken away. So Phoebe can't levitate, Prue can't move things, and Piper can't freeze/blow things up. But Phoebe can get premonitions still.
