Dread
Paige sat at her desk at work, the little boy she had been helping, Brian, had just left with his foster mum, Claire. It had been a long, hard day and she was tired, all she wanted to do was kick back on the sofa and relax. She picked up her coat, said goodbye to her supervisor, and got in the car. Once she was on the road, she started feeling drowsy. She closed her eyes, but the loud beeps of a horn made her open them again. She looked around, she was all right, she decided to stop at the nearest gas station, but she had to keep awake until then. She closed her eyes again, and this time she fell asleep, her car swerved and collided with another car.
Standing on the pavement stood a demon, his eyes were closed and he was muttering strange words under his breath. When he heard the crunch of metal on metal, he looked up; he had achieved his goal, with a small smile he shimmered out.
Piper was at home when the phone rang.
"Hello this is Piper Halliwell speaking," she said,
"Hello Miss Halliwell, this is Miss Frost, a receptionist at the hospital, I am afraid that your sister, Miss P. Halliwell, has been involved in a terrible accident, please could you come here immediately. Goodbye."
The line went dead, Piper put down the receiver. She grabbed her car keys and drove to the hospital, hoping that her sister, whichever sister it was, was all right.
When she arrived at the hospital, she went straight to the intensive care unit. When she got there Phoebe was already sitting in a chair, looking worried and panicky. When she saw Piper she jumped up and ran over to her sister, they embraced each other and Pipers eyes stung with hot tears as she realized it was Paige who had had the accident.
A lot of doctors walked back and forth, and at last, after 2 hours of waiting a doctor finally came over to them,
"Can I speak to a Piper Halliwell please," he said, Piper stood up,
The doctor led Piper away from Phoebe,
"Your sister is in a stable condition, she has two broken ribs, a fractured collar bone and a minor concussion, we will keep her here for the next few weeks, after that she will need lots of rest and care at home." He explained gravely, "you and your sister can see her now."
Piper beckoned to Phoebe, and the doctor led the way to Paige's room.
"Is she alright?" Phoebe asked, Piper nodded at her sister and they held each other's hands. When they finally came to the door, they looked through the small square window. Paige lay on the bed, Piper felt helpless, she needed Leo, but he could not come down as he was on strict White lighter duty. The doctor apologised that he was off to see another patient, then hurried off down the corridor.
The demon that had caused the accident was now down in the underworld, watching the sisters through a crystal ball he had stolen off some Gypsies. He was smirking, knowing that now he could achieve his ultimate goal, hypnotizing Piper to be his bride. He had to get rid of one of the other sisters so that the sisters did not have the power of three anymore.
Phoebe pushed through the door and walked over to her sister, Piper stood at the door, staring. Phoebe put her arms round Paige and pulled her into a tight embrace, she did not want to let her baby sister go ever again. Piper finally came over and sat down on the chair beside her sisters, it was going to be a long night!
