"Powers of the witches rise,

Course unseen across the skies,

Come to us who call you near,

Come to us and settle here.

Blood to Blood, I summon thee,

Blood to Blood, return to me."

What is this chanting?

I don't even know what I'm reading!

I don't even know what trick I ought to try

Piper stopped saying the "To Call a Lost Witch" spell. She had tried every spell she could think of or find in the Book of Shadows and she still could not bring Prue back to life. Prue was dead. Really dead. Shax had killed her.

Prue where are you?

Already dead, or bleeding?

One more disaster I can add to my

Generous supply?

Piper still could not face that fact, though. Prue couldn't be dead. Prue was always there for her. Prue could not be dead she repeated to herself. She was simply lost. This spell had to work!

This always happened. Every time Piper or any of her sisters tried to help someone, something had to happen. Her family was always suffering loss, all because of this horrible "gift" they have.

Unlimited

The damage is unlimited

To everyone I've tried to help

Or tried to love

And, oh, Prue, you're the latest

Victim of my greatest achievement

In a long career of distress

Every time I could, I tried making good

And what I made was a mess!

It seemed that no matter what she did, Piper's life never wanted her to be happy. She even tried to make everyone else happy. She was always helping innocents and everyone she could and didn't ever receive anything in return but unhappiness and loss.

No good deed goes unpunished

No act of charity goes unresented

No good deed goes unpunished

That's my new creed!

Piper got up and began to clear off of the alter. She started to put away the candles and all of the ingredients used for the incantation: rosemary, cypress, yarrow root, even her own blood had to be washed out of the mortar.

My road of good intentions

Led where such roads always lead

No good deed

Goes unpunished!

Piper began to think of all the people their magic had hurt or hilled over the years…

Mom

Andy Trudeau

Prue

Pruuuuue!

Piper proceeded to walk out of the attic and down the stairs where her sister Phoebe and her loving husband, Leo were waiting. They were both so understanding because they both were going through the same emotions as she; especially Phoebe. She walked over and gave her sister a warm embrace.

One question haunts and hurts

Too much, too much to mention:

Was I seeking good

Or just seeking attention?

Piper and Phoebe stayed in that hug fir at least ten minutes. If Prue was really gone for good, they had learned their lesson; they were going to spend as much time together as possible.

Is that all deeds are

When looked at through an ice-cold eye?

If that's all good deeds are

Maybe that's the reason why

Finally the hug was broken and the sisters mutually and silently agreed to move on with the day. Prue would have like it that way. Prue was always a wake up, drink coffee and go to work kind of gal, and she would never stand around hugging like this.

No good deed goes unpunished

All helpful urges should be circumvented

No good deed goes unpunished

Sure, I meant well—

Well, look at what well-meant did

The whole day was spent arranging the funeral. It was a grueling job that had to be done. Piper didn't want to have to decide which casket would be best or what to say at the funeral. She just wanted to grieve by herself with Phoebe.

The next day, Phoebe had a premonition of a girl being attacked by Shax. Logically, Piper thought they would just ignore it. Magic had already taken one of their sisters. Piper expected to be normal for the rest of her life, a life that unfortunately wouldn't include Prue.

Prue died trying to save innocents, trying to save the world. Piper was not going to risk losing Phoebe or herself for that again. For all she cared, the world could save itself.

All, right, enough- so be it

So be it, then:

Let all the world be agreed

I'm wicked through and through

Since I can not succeed

Prue, saving you

I promise no good deed

Will I attempt to do again

Ever Again

Piper was through with Magic. Forever.

No good deed

Will I do

Again!
