Future vs Past

10

This time I didn't beam, following an anxious Phoebe back home

"Oh, I'm an Empath, am I not?" She asked me for the hundredth time but not letting me answer, "Oh, my God. This is... Is. Huge!"

"Breath" I was amused, hands inside my Jean pockets as we entered the manor. Me with a slight jump in my walk as Phoebe found Piper on the living room

Phoebe shrieked in excitement making Piper jump "Piper! Hi! You're never gonna believe this" Piper just stared at Phoebe and myself confused. Weird. "I think I have a new power. It would certainly explain a lot of my weird behaviour lately like why I wanted to date Chad, why my advice has been so amazingly accurate. I know, this is huge, right? Huge. So what's my new power you ask? Well, I'll tell you. Um, do you remember that empath we helped a couple of years ago? That guy that could feel what other people were feeling?"

Chris walked in. "Uh, Phoebe..."

Phoebe lifted a finger "Just a sec. I think that's what I am now. An empath. I am an empath"

Chris stopped by me, a grimace in his face

"Oh, I know that face" I turned to him, suspiciously "What happened?"

"Spell gone wrong" He replied, watching Phoebe and a still confused Piper

"That's my new power" Phoebe was telling Piper "Or at least an advancement of my premonition power, I don't know"

"Neither does she, I'm afraid" Chris interrupted. "No that is, anything. Paige erased her memory"

Piper looked at Phoebe excited "Can you blow things up too?"

Phoebe laughed hysterically "Oh, boy. Paige!" I cringed, following behind her and Chris.

"Tell me that's the only thing that happened" I pleaded Chris with eyebrows slightly furrowed

Once we entered the conservatory, Chris eyed Wyatt on Paige's lap while scrying "He can now orb things"

My eyes widened, "But.. He's a baby still"

Chris pursed his lips, shrugging

I sighed

"What did you do to our sister?" Phoebe scolded before sucking in a deep breath. Probably Paige's emotions hitting her "Oh, you poor dear. You feel awful about it, don't you? I'm so sorry"

Paige seemed wary, looking up "Thanks, I think"

"That's it? That's all the ass kicking you're gonna go out?" Chris seemed frustrated "You're supposed to be sisters"

Phoebe narrowed her eyes "She's clearly devastated about this"

"But you can't let her off the hook" Chris told her "You need enough guilt to get her to fix it"

Suddenly the crystal in Paige's hands stopped, pointing to the Indian Ocean on the map.

I glanced at Chris, pursing my lips

"I think I just fixed it" Paige blinked "I think we just found Leo"

"We?" Phoebe repeated

Paige stood up. "Yep, Wyatt and me. I mean, nothing's more important to Leo than him, right?" She placed Wyatt down back in a playpen. "There you go, big boy. Let's go"

"Go? Go where?" Chris asked "It's pointing to the middle of the Indian Ocean"

"There must be something there" Paige told us "I trust Wyatt"

I looked away and down at that.

Chris didn't seemed to think the same, but we for obvious reasons. Not one they knew about "No, this is crazy"
