A/N: Don't think this sort of story has been done before so I decided to have a go at it, please tell me your honest opinion.
Penny watched as her big sister Prue paced nervously up and down the room. She hated when her sister had to do jobs for the resistance. They always fought about who would mind her. Penny always begged to go with but Prue being as stubborn as their Aunt Piper was always said no. "Prue, can't I just go with you?" she begged for what seemed to be the 200th time.
Prue shook her head "No way," she replied "You're staying here," Penny sighed "But Prudy," using her nickname "I can help you,"
Prue shook her head "Penny, I'm not putting your life at risk okay?" she said. Penny pouted "I'm nearly thirteen Prue, you need to stop protecting me," Prue looked at the ground but Penny kept continuing "Protecting me won't save me, you protected Parker, Melinda, Henry and the twins but they're still gone,"
Prue looked at her baby sister fiercely "You are all I have left, I will not lose you too. Do you understand?"
Penny nodded "What about you? You're all I have, what if I lose you? Prue paused and wrapped her arms around her sister and hugged her tight "You won't lose me, never ever." She promised.
Penny forced a smile "So, can I go with you? I really don't want to stay with Daryl again," she grimaced "His flat smells,"
Prue couldn't help but laugh at her sister "Fine," she gave in.
"So," said Penny sitting up eagerly "What's the mission?"
Prue scratched her head "We need to go to China and search for the whereabouts of the dungeon Wyatt is hiding people in,"
Penny shuddered but stopped when she caught Prue's stern look
"Pen, will you be okay I mean it's pretty nasty stuff," she said.
Penny nodded "I'll be fine Prudy, I'm a big girl now,"
Prue gave her a sad smile "I know and I hate that," she replied.
Penny sighed slightly "Prue, st-op," she whined. She paused and grinned widely "Okay, so what is it that we need to? What's the plan?"
Two hours had passed and Prue and Penny were in China exploring. "It's got to be around here," huffed Penny "That's what Daryl said,"
Prue couldn't help but laugh at her sister's naivety, she held up the bag she was carrying on her back "Pen, what did you think the tents and stuff were for? It could take days, maybe weeks. I told you this,"
Penny sighed, "I suppose," they carried on walking "Hey, do you ever get lonely on missions by yourself? I know I would,"
Prue paused "The last mission I went on was with Tam," she said slowly a tear sliding down her cheek. Penny hesitated; a lump began to form in her throat, she did not want to talk about this. Prue continued, "This is the first mission I've been on in two years, I couldn't handle it since,"
Penny nodded "I know," she said in a barely audible whisper "I miss her," she added. "It's just – it's not fair what happened I-,"
Prue nodded wiping her tears "I do too, I miss them all Penny, so much. That's why I'm so protective of you, I cannot lose you too,"
Penny hugged her sister "You won't," They kept on walking in a comfortable silence;
Four hours had passed and they had decided to take a break; they were both slouched against a rock singing as loudly as they could.
"What if Wyatt or his demons hear us?" asked a worried Penny.
Prue shook her head "He won't, Tammy and I did it all the time," suddenly a man with long blonde hair appeared behind Prue. Penny screamed as loud as she could "Prue, look out," she warned.
He grabbed Prue's waist and cackled. Penny sat frozen with fear
"Wyatt?" said Prue "Is-is that you?" she looked at Penny fiercely "Penny go, go. Wyatt don't you dare take her, she's only a baby. Penny run,"
Wyatt cackled again "I don't need to take her. She's no threat – only you are," and shimmered away.
Penny ran, ran as fast as she could. Once she thought she was far away she slumped on the ground and began to cry and cried until there were no more tears left.
