Starbucks. Of all places to meet the sister who had so betrayed her. A Starbucks. Christy didn't know yet what she was going to really say or do. Wyatt all grown up had been a definite kick in the teeth. He'd have to be the first to die. But the sisters not knowing her? That had its advantages in its own way. All she could really say though was that it was a pity Piper wasn't here. Piper who had been the one to kill Dumain not once, but twice. Piper who had cost her so much, a friend, and a sister. Still she'd make do with killing her son. And taking her sister back. She was the eldest, It was up to her to show Billie the truth. To show her sister how things were supposed to be. She'd just have to be more careful this time round. No casual talk about killing. Nothing overtly 'evil'. No she had to play like Billie would want. Contrite, willing to change, being the sister Billie had always wanted while taking Paige, Pheobe and Wyatt down.

The demon, Lilith, had offered her a lot. And Christy was used to demons. She knew never to say yes to anything that could be considered a contract. No, she and Lilith had made an arrangement, witch and demon. That was all. She'd get Lilith the power that she and Billie could conjure together and in return she'd have help to kill Wyatt and the sisters. She wondered could Lilith swing bringing Piper in just so Christy could kill her. She'd enjoy that.

But first the traitor sister. Billie had stood with the sisters, as the Triad and Dumain had died screaming. She'd been telling her just to come home, come home like it was that easy. Christy didn't have a home. She'd never had a home. Not really. How could she have come home? Billie had made her choice and Christy had conjured a fireball. For her, for Piper, she wasn't even sure where it would have gone. She'd never been betrayed like that before. But here and now she had to play at contrite, sorry. She'd made so many bad mistakes and now she needed her sisters help. She'd even be sympathetic when her friends started dying.

 She stepped into the Starbucks and ordered something random from the menu knowing Billie would pay for it, she found a seat and waited for what she knew would be a lot of talented acting on her part and her sister's incredible naievete and want of a family to back it up. The Charmed Ones were not Billie's family. She was. And her destiny was to join Christy and truly become the Ultimate Power again.

And you didn't walk away from destiny. Even in this strange dimension.
