A/N: Thanks for the reviews and continued fave and follows on this story. This chapter is only relatively short, and that's because I just need to establish a few things before I go into more of adding Melinda into the eps of the show from Witchstock onwards.

Love,

Up in the bedroom, of her future mom; Melinda sat on the bed as Piper went through her wardrobe, looking for some clothes that she was able to borrow, and looked to Melinda with a smile as she handed her a pair of pants.

"You know I think they may be a little short for me" said Melinda, with a small laugh as she stood and holding the pants up against herself; with her being significantly taller than that of her future mother and standing at a height of around five foot ten inches; but still shorter than both her brothers who stood at over six foot.

"They'd work well as below the knee for you" said Piper, with a small laugh also as Melinda looked to her mom with a nod and smile. "You're parents must be tall" she said, looking back to her wardrobe with a sigh. "Both you and Chris, are quite tall"

"Umm, they're not actually" replied Melinda, shaking her head, as Piper turned back to her with a dress in her hands. "My mum isn't tall at all" she continued, taking the dress from Piper, that even though was meant to be at below knee length for her, would be above the knee for that of her. "And we're actually all taller than our dad as well"

"All taller?" asked Piper, looking to her, and Melinda gulped at her potential slip of the tongue.

"Chris and me, that's what I mean" said Melinda, hoping it was enough to cover it over. "Our mom often said we took more after our grandfather in terms of height"

"Okay, yeah" said Piper, with a nod. "I guess genetics are weird in that way"

"Oh definitely" replied Melinda, with a small smile to her and looked to the dress in her hands. "I'll just go and try this on"

"Sure" said Piper, with a smile to her also. "Bathroom is through there" she continued, pointing and Melinda looked to her with a nod, knowing where the bathroom of the ensuite bathroom for the room was in the room, and headed in there to change; Piper turning back to continue looking through her wardrobe for some clothes for the young girl.

"Find anything for her?" asked Paige, as she walked into the room of her older sister; and Piper turned to look at her.

"Not much" replied Piper, shaking her head. "She's considerably taller than I am"

"Hmm, I was thinking exactly the same thing" replied Paige with a nod. "We're all on the short side of the height table" she continued as Piper gave a nod. "And Chris and his sister, well maybe they also have giants in their family lineage"

"We don't have giants in my family" said Melinda, as she walked out of the bathroom; wearing that of the dress of her mom's and her old clothes from the future in her arms. "Just freakishly tall, that's all"

"That looks good on you" said Piper, with a smile to Melinda, as Paige nodded also in agreement. "But I don't really have much more that will fit you, except for a few shirts and tops maybe" she continued, as Melinda gave a small nod. "So we'll go shopping, and I can buy you a few things"

"As lovely as that is for you to do Piper" replied Melinda, shaking her head. "I didn't exactly come from the future with a purse full of money to buy things"

"Oh, sweetie it's fine" said Piper, with a laugh; Melinda looking to her with a small smile and the unknown heart pulling term of endearment for that of her young future daughter. "I'll buy you some stuff" she continued with a nod. "And then your brother can always pay me back later"

"Umm, Chris has money?" asked Melinda, looking to her mother in some confusion; wondering how that was even possible as Piper gave a small nod.

"I pay him to do some stuff around P3 for me" she replied, as Melinda gave a nod and small laugh; knowing that when they were younger, Chris often spoke of one day when he was older, before all that happened, happened, of taking over the nightclub that Piper had started only in this time, a few years earlier. "So I will just dock his pay"

"Okay, yeah" replied Melinda, with a laugh; knowing that Chris would hate the idea of that, much like he in the future when they were young kids, hated having his pocket money cut if he'd not completed all the chores he had. "And if I can, I'll help out as well then I will" she continued with a nod. "Although, I'm sort of not of legal age to be handling alcohol"

"We'll work something out" said Piper, with a smile to her as Melinda gave a small nod. "So do we want to go and get some things for you?"

"Sure, yeah let's go and get some things" replied Melinda, with a smile to her; and then left the manor with her mom and aunt, to do some shopping; reveling in getting to spend time with them both, even if they were not at all aware of who she really was.

That night, after having spent a few hours shopping with her mom and aunt; and finding it both enjoyable also rather heartbreaking also; Chris and Melinda were standing up on the top of the Golden Gate Bridge, cloaked by their magic.

"I don't think I can do this Chris" said Melinda, looking to her older brother and shaking her head.

"Melinda, you have to. They can't find out that Wyatt is the evil we are trying to stop" said Chris.

"It's not that. I don't know how to be around her" replied Melinda, as Chris looked to his little sister. "I almost stuffed up so many times today, and I always feel like I am going to say something I shouldn't" she continued with a small sigh, as Chris nodded his head in agreement. "When all I really want is her to tell me that it's going to be okay and give me a hug, like she did when she was still alive"

"Yeah, I feel like that all the time Minnie" replied Chris, with a small sigh also. "When they've all said at certain points, that they don't trust me" he continued and Melinda looked to her older brother. "Believe me that hurts more than you could ever know" he said with a nod. "But what we're doing here, it's for the greater good"

"The future depends on it, right" said Melinda, as Chris nodded.

"Our whole family" replied Chris, and the two of them stayed up on the Golden Gate Bridge, a little longer talking; trying to figure out what their next move was going to be, in this battle to save Wyatt from becoming the evil ruling tyrant that they knew him to be in their future.

End Note: I already established in the first Trinity fic of mine; that Melinda is 5'10; and both the actors that played Wyatt and Chris, do stand over 6' tall.
Holly and Brian are both shorter than that, and the reference to them getting their height from their grandfather; comes from that of the actor who plays Victor is also a little bit over 6' as well.

I also too wanted to establish as well, just how Chris was maybe able to buy things in the past; since it would be highly unlikely that he'd have come with any money and all the clothes he wears. So having that Piper, gets him to do some work around P3 for her and pays him for it; just sort of comes into how he'd be able to get some money, since obviously being from the future he'd have no form of identification or a social security number and all that stuff needed to gain employment.

The next chapter is going to be a reworking of the Witchstock ep, and will take slightly longer to finish; only because I have to flick back and forth between the actual script for that whilst also writing in the newer stuff as well.

Thanks for reading and I will catch you all again soon.

Love always,
