Here we are, chapter 6. Again, stupid writers block. I didn't know where to go with the rest of the story. (This isn't the last chapter if that's what you thought I was getting at.)

Thank you all so much for the reviews again they mean a lot. 10,000 words right? A personal accomplishment. I know it's not that much but hey. I like the little things. Enough rambling. On with the story!

Phoebe sat, watching over her sisters. They slept so soundly but their minds were battling inner demons.

A sudden gasp of air caught Phoebe's attention. Paige's body shuddered as her eyes fluttered open. Phoebe rushed to her side and grabbed her hand. "Paige?"

Paige coughed and blinked a few times before looking up at her older sister. "Oh. How am I back here? I am in the right time aren't I?"

Phoebe looked at Paige and tilted her head a little, confused. "What do you mean by 'right time'?"

Paige shook her head and sat up, looking at Piper. "Crap. I thought she'd wake up before me. I guess that was the revelation I needed though."

Phoebe persisted, ignoring Paige's comment. "What do you mean? Did you go to the past or something?"

Paige looked back up at Phoebe, "No, we went to the future. It was horrible." Paige shivered, thinking about the horrid fight she had experienced.

Phoebe sighed, "I just hope Piper finds her revelation fast, we have a powerful demon on our hands. At least we think so."

Paige nodded, "Alright."

Piper watched as the scene around her changed. She was no longer hugging her little sister, she was gone. Piper sighed and waited for her head to stop spinning.

Her head finally stopped spinning and a familiar scene played out in front of her. It was Phoebe and her at a funeral. At first she thought it was Prue's but then she saw the inscription on the grave. Her heart stopped and she wrapped her arms around herself tightly. "No.. No this can't be happening.. She can't be.. She was right here!" She knew she was screaming at no one but she couldn't stop herself. Her expression suddenly turned hard, "How dare you! You take away one sister and then you take away another!" She dropped to her knees and started sobbing.

Phoebe and Paige stopped talking and turned around to see Piper shaking in her sleep. They exchanged worried glances and stepped over to her side, grabbing her hands. Knowing they couldn't do much, they watched as she shook.

"What are we supposed to do? We can't wake her up." Paige said, looking at Phoebe.

Phoebe sighed and looked up at Paige, "We need to go vanquish that demon."

"But how-" Paige started.

Phoebe shook her head, "I think we need to get help from a certain demon."

Paige froze and stared at Phoebe, "We can't.. I-I mean he's evil Phoebe!"

Phoebe sighed and nodded, "I know, sweetie. I just think it's our only chance without the Power of Three."

Paige let go of Piper's hand and bit her bottom lip. She stood up shakily, taking in a gasp of air. "I'm gonna go to the bathroom." She slid out the door and into the bathroom, locking the door. She started shaking and sat against the wall, hugging her knees. She never wanted to face that demon again. Let alone work with him.

Phoebe knew how scared her little sister was of Cole. He tried to kill her on several occasions, tried turning her sisters against her, and basically tried to drive her insane with a power broker demon. Paige never visibly looked scared, even though Phoebe could tell when she was. Paige liked to keep a strong face but when it came to Cole, she didn't stand a chance. The last few days he was around, after they confirmed he was the Source, Paige barely came out of her room. Every time Phoebe or Piper would check on her, she would be just sitting on her bed, shaking. It was horrible. Especially because Paige was almost never like that.

Piper finally stood up, wiping her tears away. She watched Phoebe walk over to the other Piper and sigh.

"I miss her so much.. I miss the Power of Three too. It's so weird without our powers and without Paige." Phoebe said, hugging the other Piper.

Piper shook her head, "I know sweetie, I miss her too. I miss the way it used to be."

Suddenly the scene changed yet again. Piper was getting frustrated with the situation. She just wanted to wake up or at least be able to have the comfort of her sisters. She had Paige before but now it was just her.

A demon stepped from the shadows and Piper held her hands up, attempting to blow him up. Nothing happened. Piper looked at her hands and tried again. Still nothing. What was wrong with her powers?

No. That dream was not real. Paige was alive and well, she probably just woke up. Wasn't she? Why had she left the dream before Piper?

The demon laughed and stepped closer to her. "Nice failed attempt. Prepare to die." His hand lit up with a fire-ball and she screamed as the flames took her.

"Phoebe!" Paige screamed from upstairs. Paige was looking at the Book of Shadows and she thought she found something Leo and Phoebe missed before.

Phoebe rushed upstairs, "What? Did you find something?" Phoebe asked, stepping next to Paige.

Paige nodded, "You must have missed this when you were looking with Leo." Paige pointed to a few sentences that said

'The Power of Three is needed to vanquish this high level demon.

Potions don't weaken but make him stronger.

Use caution.'

Phoebe looked confused, "That was not there before.. I would've seen that. Especially that."

Paige smiled and looked up at the ceiling, "Thanks Prue."

Phoebe looked at Paige like she was mad. "Prue? Sweetie.. maybe you are still a little hazy. You know Prue isn't-"

Paige cut her off, "Before you came up here I was having difficulty with finding information on the demon and I asked Prue for help. Apparently she did."

Phoebe smiled and shook her head, "That seems like Prue. See, you don't have to meet your big sister to know she's looking after you."

Paige smiled and poked Phoebe. "Thanks Pheebs."

Downstairs, Piper shot up from her sleep. She was sweating and her breathing came out in gasps. She knew now what her revelation was, she didn't want a normal life. She wanted her powers and to save innocents like they had done for almost 5 years. She wanted magic in her life.

"Phoebe? Paige?" She forced out, her voice shaky and cracking. She was too scared that they wouldn't answer. She swung her legs over to side of the bed and stood up. She made her way to the door as Phoebe and Paige opened it, hugging her.

"Piper!" Phoebe said, hugging her again.

Piper smiled and hugged her back. "Thanks God I'm awake. That was horrid." Piper said before grabbing onto Paige and holding onto her. "I'm so glad you're okay, Missy Paige."

Paige smiled and hugged her back.

Phoebe was surprised by Piper's sudden change in behavior. It probably had something to do with her revelation. She'd have to ask her about that later.

"I hate to break this up but, we have a demon to vanquish." Phoebe said, walking back upstairs.

"Oh, you found the demon?" Piper asked, following her.

Phoebe nodded, "With a little help from Paige and our big sister."

Piper looked shocked and Paige smiled. "Prue?" Piper asked.

Paige laughed a little, watching Piper's reactions. "Yeah, I couldn't find anything on the demon so I asked Prue."

Piper smiled and squeezed Paige's hand, "Told you she cared about you."

Phoebe turned around and looked at them. "That's what I said!"

"Alright, Phoebe you got the spell and Paige you got the location, right?" Piper asked. She was worried about this demon, he had enough power to do this to all three of them, with a little help from Leo putting them to sleep. She didn't blame him but it left them vulnerable.

Phoebe and Paige nodded, standing up. "Ready?" Paige asked, grabbing their hands. Paige orbed them to the location of the demon and quickly took in the familiar surroundings. The alley was behind P3, one they had been in many times. Smoke swirled around them from the surrounding buildings and they searched for the demon quickly.

"Oh look, we have guests." A deep voice echoed around them. The demon materialized in front of Phoebe, shoot a bolt of energy into her. She crumpled to the ground, Paige and Piper turned around swiftly. Paige instinctively grabbed onto Piper's arm, looking at the demon. He laughed and sunk back into the shadows.

His laugh echoed off the walls as Paige leaned over and checked Phoebe's pulse. It was slow but steady. She looked at Piper, "We need the Power of Three. What are we going to do?"

Piper sighed and looked at Phoebe, "I guess we have to get Leo to heal her then think of another plan."

Paige nodded and orbed them all back to the Manor, calling for Leo.

Leo orbed in and knelt down next to Phoebe. He hovered his hands over her chest and watched the warm yellow glow. Phoebe's eyes opened and she sat up, holding her head.

"Sweetie, are you okay?" Piper asked, kneeling next to Leo.

"Yeah, I'm fine. I hope. Where's Paige?" Phoebe asked, looking at Piper.

"What are you talking about? I'm right here." Paige said, stepping up behind Leo. She looked at Phoebe, confused.

Piper turned around and quickly scanned the attic. "I have no idea.. Paige!" Piper called out, worry in her voice.

Paige shook her head, putting her hand on her forehead. Could no one see her?

"Paige!" Piper called again.

Paige went over and grabbed the Book of Shadows, hoping it would alert them to her presence. She had no idea what was going on. If it had been the side effect to the energy bolt, only Phoebe wouldn't be able to see her but no one could.

Phoebe and Leo stood up and stood beside Piper, watching the Book of Shadows. "What the.." Leo muttered.

Unaware of his presence, the demon wasn't done reeking havoc on the Charmed Ones just yet. He figured if they couldn't see or hear Paige, he couldn't be vanquished. Satisfied with his work, he blinked out, leaving the horribly confused Charmed Ones to figure this one out by themselves.

Good, Paige thought to herself, They can at least see me moving things. She walked over to the table and grabbed the pen and paper. She quickly scribbled down, ' I think the demon did this. -Paige' She dropped it at Piper's feet and sighed. Why was she always in this mess?

Piper picked up the paper and read it, handing it to Phoebe. "Great, we're technically down a sister. Paige where are you?" Piper asked, crossing her arms.

Paige hoped they could at least feel her. She walked over and placed a hand on Piper's arm and she shrieked. "Okay! You could've just moved something Paige!" Piper said, gripping onto Phoebe.

Paige laughed to herself, poking Piper. Piper shrieked again, nearly jumping onto Phoebe. Phoebe laughed and shrugged Piper off, "It's just Paige." Phoebe said, going over to the Book.

Piper pouted, "Yeah but she's not poking you."

Paige giggled and leaned over Phoebe. Phoebe smiled when she felt Paige lean on her. "See Piper, she doesn't bite." Phoebe laughed.

Piper stuck her tongue out at Phoebe and crossed her arms again. "What are we going to do?"

Phoebe nodded and looked up at her older sister, "If the curse is only on us, she can still say the spell. Just because we can't hear it doesn't mean it won't work. It's not like she's gone right?"

Piper nodded, "That could work. Leo, can you orb us there?"

Leo nodded, "Just tell me where."

Piper walked over and started scrying for the demon again.

Piper smiled when the crystal landed, "Got him."

Phoebe smiled, "Let's go demon hunting."
