Author's notes: Okay I know you guys are probably mad for the lack of update but I have a good reason... well, at least for me it is good. I was on a study abroad program and I really didn't have any time to write much, my last update was from there but I afterwards I couldn't and even in my free time I had some sort of a writer's block towards this story and I started losing my passion to Charmed :( . Anyway, I am back home now and I SHOULD be able to update as regularly as I used to... unless I have a writer's block or I am away but it won't be a long delay again... I promise.
Big thanks to those who are still reading & reviewing.
Disclaimer: I claim no ownership to Charmed or any of its characters, I however own the new Characters and this particular story line.

Previously on "Was It All For Nothing!":
Elder: ... Paige will be kept in heavens until she gives birth and then only she'll be returned to earth safely , and then you can continue with your charmed duties!
Elder: Gideon was right; we made a mistake in allowing Wyatt to be born, and allowing such a concentration of power to be brought into this world in one being.
Female voice: Don't worry! (As she pulls her cloak back revealing her identity) I'm your sister!! Prue…
Piper (surprised and shocked): Henry? (An older looking version of Henry smiles)
(Jo & Future Henry kiss)...Piper: I guess that end up the possibility that she's his daughter!!
Piper: Oh so your wife from the future came to the past to save your family in-law!! That's confusing!!
Jo: Believe me, that is one thing that is meant to be!! (Jo looks at her ring, Henry and Jo hug each other and Paige notices that Jo is wearing the same wedding ring she's wearing)
Phoebe: You know? Wyatt wins the prophesized battle?!
Barbas: Hello my dear!! Long time no see
(Scene: Future. Unknown time, unknown place. Most of the buildings are ruined there are fires in some of them.)
Future Prue: Those are Paige's powers. Let me guess you stole them when you killed her didn't you?
Henry: Prue remember that spell you and Paige wrote? The glamoring one? Well it worked a little too well.
Phoebe: She's… she's Paige glamored!!
I am made the re-cap longer than usual because I haven't updated in a while.
(Scene: Future, continued from before.)
Piper: What did you see?
Phoebe: She's… she's Paige glamored!!
Piper/Paige/Prue/Future Prue: What?! (As Jo looks away as her secret was revealed, everyone except Future Henry and Jo is staring with shock as the "big secret" was not secret anymore)
(Jo closes her eyes and bright light surrounds her. As the light dims out, an older looking version of Paige is sitting in place of Jo. She has long dark hair, her skin is still as pale as usual. Sadness and sorrow can be seen all over her features)
Piper: Paige glamored? Paige glamored? That's not possible... But if it is, everything makes sense now! Why she would come back to the past, why she'd disappear when Paige is hurt...
Prue: Oh my … (Future Prue falls on her knees and starts crying. Jo/ Future Paige goes and hugs her, F. Prue hugs her back and cries more)
F. Prue: I've missed you so much!
F. Paige: I know, I am sorry! (They break the hug and stand up)
F. Prue: You should've told me instead of leaving me here thinking you're dead.
F. Paige: I know but it had to be believable, no one but the real Jo knew.
F. Prue: The real Jo? We thought she killed you, everyone was looking for her to avenge your death but she was no where to be found.
Piper: Okay hold it!! You have been living with us this whole time and we have made your life a living hell and you didn't bother telling us you're our sister?!!
F. Paige: hmmm... Technically I didn't live with you and I didn't tell you for the same reason Chris didn't tell you he was your son!
Phoebe: Future Consequences?! Are you kidding? Your life would've been a lot easier if you had just told us!
F. Paige (shrugging her shoulder innocently): I am sorry?
Prue: Unbelievable!
F. Prue: True... so why did you come back to the future?
F. Paige: That I don't know... Ask them?
Piper: Well, we thought we would figure out the truth and at the same time escape from the elders.
F. Prue: The elders?
Phoebe: Yeah they kinda went nuts and wanted to take Paige to live in heavens until she gives birth and then take her child and train him for the prophesized battle. (F. Paige looks away)
F. Prue: I am sorry about Henry Junior. (F. Paige nods sadly)
Piper (trying to lighten the mood): Henry Junior? That's an interesting name.
F. Prue: Yeah and it has a more interesting story.
F. Henry: That should be kept as a secret for now!!
F. Prue: Right... "Future Consequences"
Paige (who has been silent the whole time): This is all so confusing and stressing!
F. Paige: Yeah, sorry about that!
Paige: It's okay... This is weird, I am talking to myself.
F. Prue: haha... and I can see myself or at least the "past version" of my self in front of me.
F. Henry: This is probably messing too much with the time line.
F. Paige: Yeah, I think we should go before something happens or someone else from the future figures out I am still alive.
Paige: Go where exactly? And what happened to all the demons? Aren't they supposed to roam the streets or something?
F. Prue: No demon dares come here, I am always protecting this place.
Piper: What is so special about this place?
F. Henry: You don't recognize this street? (The people from the past look around until they notice the only standing building in the area, The Manor)
Phoebe: Oh my God!
F. Paige: Yeah! Let's go inside before any demon decide to try their luck with Prue!
(They all walk to the manor. They get inside but the "Future" people are looking around for any signs of danger. The manor looks quiet the same except for some of the furniture is different than the one in the past and you can see the crystals spread all around the manor and there are vanquishing potions lying everywhere.)
Prue: It looks quiet the same!
F. Paige: Yeah I guess, I didn't realize that until we came back here. (They start walking towards the attic)
(Scene: Attic. Everyone gets in the attic, and makes themselves comfortable. )
Phoebe: What are we going to do now about the situation with the elders?
F. Paige: What I would like to do is send them Wyatt from this time and I'm sure he'll get rid of all of them! (She starts laughing and so does Prue. Everyone else smiles)
F. Prue (sarcastically): Are you sure you aren't behind what happened to them here?
F. Paige (smiling): I thought that was you.
F. Prue: True!
Piper: Wait what happened to the elders here?
F. Paige: Gone... We think!
F. Prue: We aren't sure. We know Wyatt didn't kill the angels because the universe would be unmanaged.
F. Paige: Wyatt realized that even though he's all "powerful" and "mighty" he can't balance the universe and do all the work the angels do.
F. Henry: But whitelighters are still being recruited but ones that are already familiar with the job and abilities because there is no time to train new ones.
Phoebe: So what you are saying that whitelighters now are magical people who died.
F. Henry: Pretty much. Although I wasn't magical but I was familiar with the duties and all because Paige is a half whitelighter.
Prue: We still don't know what we are going to do about the Elders. (The "future" people look at each other thoughtfully)
Piper: What do you guys know?
F. Paige: What the elders are doing didn't happen before so we don't really know what should be done.
F. Prue: It could greatly compromise the course of time but we aren't sure how. We know Paige was supposed to live on earth and raise her kid.
Paige: Yeah but if the elders know how the battle ends, they might not waist their time training Junior.
F. Henry: The problem is that the elders believe they can some how change the result of the battle.
Prue: Or maybe they want to stop it from happening. (Everyone stares at her)
F. Paige: You say what?!
Prue: I didn't think about that before but maybe the elders are just trying to prevent the battle from happening in the first place.
Paige: Then why would they take my kid?
Prue: Take the kid, suppress his magical side, raise him as a powerful whitelighter, make him forget about his "family". So that way the kid won't be in the battle at all. (Paige shakes her head in disbelief)
Piper: Did they actually believe we would just let them take Paige and her kid?
Prue: They probably didn't, that's why they took matters into their own hands.
Phoebe: Well good thing you guys interfered as well. (Everyone nods) So on a brighter notice, do we get to meet any of the kids here?
Piper (glaring at her sister): Phoebe!!
Phoebe: What? I really would like to see some of the kids...
F. Prue: That would be hard...
Phoebe: Oh come on, what future consequences can that cause?
F. Henry: A lot and it's not only about that, it's just... it's just that we don't really see the kids around here that much!
Piper: What do you mean?
F. Prue: All those who are left, are scattered around each doing their thing...
Paige: All those who are left?
F. Henry: You don't expect all the kids to be alive and well when the world is being terrorized by evil.
Piper: No... (Sadly) I guess I just didn't really think about it that much.
F. Prue: Piper it's not your fault... it's not any of you guys fault!... You guys did the best you could've done to make sure Wyatt grew up to be good...
Female voice from behind: Yeah Yeah, you keep saying that but is it really the truth... (Everyone turns around to see a blond in her thirties walking towards the Book of Shadows smiling and starts flipping it)
Piper: Excuse me but who are you and what do you mean?
Woman: It's not important who I am.. And for the record I was just kidding... (She looks around at all the people in the attic) Okay who brought all the people from the past?
F. Paige: haha very funny... What do you need the book for? (realizing now how she startled the woman in front of her)
(The woman just stares at Future Paige -mouth open- not knowing really what's going on)
F. Prue: Are you going to say something or not because we don't have all day.
Woman (still shocked): Is that really you? (F. Paige nods) Oh my God (She runs and hugs Paige really tight)
Woman: Oh my God... Oh my God...I've missed you so much!! How's this possible? (Still hugging her)
F. Paige (jokingly): I'm- suff-ucating he..re!! (The woman lets go)
Woman (smiling): Sorry!
F. Henry: Paige traveled to the past trying to save it.
Woman: But I thought Jo killed her.
F. Henry: Everyone did but apparently that wasn't what happened.
Woman: Not that I am not glad to see you but what are you doing back here if Wyatt is still evil?
F. Paige: We ran into a little trouble with the elders and people from the past over there (pointing at Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and Paige) decided it would be better to come here.
Woman: Oh... well I think it's a lot safer there in the past than here. Which reminds me why I came here. (She goes back to the book and keeps flipping pages until she finds what she wants)
F. Prue: Which is?
Woman: Oh I just needed to check a certain demon's power. (She closes the book and goes to a cabinet. She opens it and looks around the potions inside and grabs one.) Do we have any of that "Super" potion stuff left?
F. Prue: No... Hailey hasn't been here since Junior died.
Woman: What about spells?
F. Henry: Patience decided it was useless to write them because potions are a lot faster and stronger.
F. Paige: Wait, what happened to Hailey?
F. Prue: We don't know, she just doesn't come here any more. We don't even know if she's still alive...
Woman: Speaking of being alive, they need to go back to the past before … you know!!
Piper: I have a question. (All the future people look at her) Who is she? (pointing at the woman)
Woman: Oh come on, I don't look that much different than I did in the past, do I?
F. Paige: You do look different but you are still recognizable!
Woman: You seriously don't know how I am?
Phoebe: Not really, you look and and act familiar but I can't tell who you are.
Woman: That's a surprise coming from you Phoebe... ( A demon shimmers in with an energy ball ready to throw it)
F. Prue: UGHHHH( He throws the energy ball towards the woman who send it back at him using telekineses and he gets vanquished)
Woman: Wow, that must be the weakest demon I have faced in years. (F. Prue nods but the same demon shimmers in again) Okay didn't I just vanquish you?
Demon (smiling evilly): You wish! (This time he looks at the people from the past and throws his energy ball at Paige. Paige orbs out and then back in dodging the energy ball. The demon shimmers out)
F. Prue: What the heck? (The demon shimmers in behind the woman and was about to attack)
F. Paige (yelling): Billie watch out!! (But it was too late because the demon grabbed Billie from behind and shimmers out with her)
To Be Continued.
It took me forever to write this chapter, I guess my mind is a little bit rusty from not writing for a while... I realize it's not the best I've written so far but hopefully it helped clear up some things.
Thanks for reading and don't forget to review!!
