I know you hate me for killing off Paige but I was at a wall. I think you know how that feels. It gives me an opportunity to see how I can explore Piper and Phoebe's characters. Along with Paige's, if you know what I mean. I hope you appreciate the little marks indicating the change in POV. It helps me so I hope it helps you.

I hope all of my readers are still with me and enjoy. (:

"Ladies and Gentleman, today is a day for mourning and remembering.." The priest spoke out to the crowd of mourners that had gathered in the church. The same church Paige was dropped off almost 25 years ago.

Piper and Phoebe sat between Leo, Darryl, and Victor. They had only known Paige for a little over a year but felt as close to her as if they knew her their entire life. Except for Victor. He, of course, came to support Piper and Phoebe but was unsure about it at first. He had met Paige only a few months ago. He didn't exactly like her either. How could he? Patty, the love of his life, had a child with Sam, her white lighter. How could he like her? But now he felt guilty. He knew Paige was a good person. She did nothing to him. He wished he would've given her a chance. Not that it mattered now.

Piper gripped Phoebe's hand, letting the tears stream down her cheeks and blur her vision. How could Paige be gone? First Prue, now Paige. It was just too much to bear.

After half listening to all of the mourners express their condolences, they went back to the Manor. The silence never seemed so heavy between them. They were used to Paige chattering their ears off about anything that she was interested in.

Phoebe excused herself, heading upstairs. She didn't want to deal with anyone right now. Especially not Piper. The first shot she had at being a big sister and she blew it. Completely and utterly blew it.

Piper sighed as she watched Phoebe walked up the stairs. None of them knew exactly what to say. Piper fumbled with her fingers, holding back the tears threatening to spill over. She needed Paige now more than ever.

Paige blinked, her vision blurry. Her head seemed to be in an inescapable fog. She struggled to comprehend her surroundings. She heard voices but they were mumbled and twisted, like they were in the distance. She slowly sat up, rubbing her eyes.

"Paigey?" A familiar voice asked. Why couldn't she pick out the face behind that voice? She knew it well. Her vision was still blurry but she was sure she was looking at a familiar face.

"Patty, she's still dazed," another familiar voice added. Come on Paige, think for God's sake! You know these voices.

"Mom, Grams, cut it out. You know it takes more than two seconds to comprehend this okay?" Another voice spoke. That voice. She didn't know it but it was like she heard it in a dream one time. At least that voice gave her answers. Mom and Grams, now it seemed clearer. She rubbed her eyes once more before focusing on the three faces in front of her.

"What.. w-what happened to me?" Paige groggily stuttered out while standing up. Her voice was failing her.

"Oh Paigey.." Her mom said, looking at her with a sad look on her face.

Paige now noticed the pain shooting through her body with every move she made. It seemed to be coming from her stomach. Finally her eyes came to rest on the dark haired woman standing in front of her. That's why she didn't know the voice.

"I'm dead, aren't I?" She demanded, directing her question more at Prue than anyone else.

Prue's face faltered, looking down. She couldn't look her little sister in the eyes. How could she tell her that? She was sure Paige knew she was dead but she couldn't get the words out of her mouth. Obviously neither could her mom or Grams.

Paige looked down, a few tears falling. How could she be dead? She had just found out a year ago that she had sisters. She wasn't ready to leave them. She never loved anyone more than them. Suddenly, she understood how Prue felt when she died. Helpless and desperate. She looked at her stomach, placing one of her shaking hands on it. She was hit with a horrible memory of Piper and Phoebe crying as Leo was trying to heal her. She put her hands over her face. She let the tears spill over.

Prue stepped up to Paige and wrapped her arms around her little sister tightly. She barely knew Paige at all but they were sisters. She felt compelled to do it more than anything. Patty and Penny smiled at the two, wishing they would've met under better circumstances.

Paige was taken a back by Prue's sudden action. She tensed at first, letting her hands fall from her face. She then realized Prue knew exactly how she felt right now. She had to leave their sisters behind too. She shut her eyes and wrapped her arms around her big sister tightly.

A few hours later, Piper decided it was finally time to go up and drag Phoebe out of her room. That was what Phoebe had done for her after Prue died. She knocked on Phoebe's door gently. "Hey, Pheebs?" Piper called out, hoping Phoebe was awake and not ignoring her.

"What Piper? I'm really not in the mood.." Phoebe said, making no move towards the door.

Piper opened Phoebe's door, stepping inside her room. "Doesn't matter," she spoke evenly, eyeing her little sister.

Phoebe sighed and sat up, running a hand through her hair. "If you're here to give me a pep talk.."

"I'm not," Piper interjected. She moved over and sat next to Phoebe. "But I'm guessing Leo will later," she added, smiling a little.

"I know he will," Phoebe said, glancing at Piper.

"I came up here to ask you why you've been up here all day." Piper said, looking at Phoebe.

"Because it's easier. I don't feel like dealing with anyone anymore." Phoebe said, a strange monotone in her voice.

"Neither do I but.." Piper trailed off, not really knowing how she was going to respond.

Phoebe fell silent for a moment, breaking any eye contact she had with Piper. She breathed in, "Maybe it's because I feel like I blew my only shot at being a big sister."

Piper was absolutely shocked by Phoebe's words. That wasn't what she was expecting her to say. "Oh Pheebs, you didn't fail at all. I get how you feel but you know Paige loved you. She always looked up to you and I'm sure she was extremely proud to say you were her big sister."

Phoebe leaned onto Piper, a few tears falling. "I hate how you're using past tenses." She said, wrapping her arms around Piper's waist.

Piper wrapped her arms around Phoebe, looking at her. "Yeah, so do I.."

There you go! The first chapter of my sequel to Don't Leave Me in the Dark! I really hope I get a good feedback on this like I did with my other story.

But in other news! I'm working on another story based around Paige and her mom. There aren't many fanfics based on them and I'm excited to do one. I got the idea and I'm sticking with it so that will be up soon!

Please review! (: Hope you enjoyed!
