Sweet Dreams
Summary: Season four was a nightmare; Phoebe's nightmare. The Source put the Halliwells through one year of hell, but with Phoebe's return will it end? Or will it just be beginning? The Charmed Ones can't wait to see what's in store for them next. And believe me, they will have a lot on their plate.
Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed. Well, I do own it and several other successful television programs in my alternate universe, but no one lives in that universe except for me and a few random bunny rabbits, so none of that matters. I don't own Charmed.
A/N: I know some of you will read this and be like 'Whoa! Vingança Do Amor deja vu!' but, um, that's okay because this is different. ;)
Timeframe A/N: The first chapter picks up right where AHBL (you figure it out) ends.
Leo orbed into the manor and surveyed the damage before him. He rushed to the to unconscious women and kneeled next to them. He placed a hand over each of them and waited. He let out a relieved sigh when he saw the familiar and soothing glow.
After a moment, the two women groan in pain and open their eyes.
"Ahh, what happened?" Piper asked as she sat up.
"You guys almost died, that's what happened." Leo said and helped them up.
"Yeah, well what else is new?" Piper groaned.
"Oh, where's Shax?" Prue asked and rubbed the back of her neck.
"He's gone." Leo informed her.
"Gone? Gone where?" Prue asked.
"I don't know." Leo said.
"Phoebe." Piper called and looked around. Then she turned to Leo. "Where is Phoebe?"
"She's... in the Underworld." Leo told her. "She made a deal with The Source to save you guys."
"Save us?" Prue asked. "From what?"
"It's a long story."
"Then go and get her so she can tell us herself!" Piper demanded.
Leo was hesitant to leave them.
"Go!" Prue demanded.
Leo orbed out, not sure if he should leave them.
"Come on." Prue said and walked to the front door.
"Come on?" Piper asked, following her sister. "Where?"
"To find him so we can finish him off." Prue said and opened the door. It fell off its hinges. "Okay."
Prue let Piper out, then set the door in front of the gaping hole that was the doorway.

"Do you really think he'd attack us in broad daylight?" Piper asked as they walked down the street. "Evil is usually more insidious than that."
"At least we can say we tried." Prue said.
Piper waved at a little girl jumping rope and she waved back. She then quickened her pace to catch up to Prue.

"Wait."
"What?" The reporter snapped and looked behind her.
"Those two women just walked into the shot." The camera man informed her.
The reporter sighed and turned back to face the camera.
"This is crap." She said. "I want excitement."
"One day." The camera man said and began rolling again.

Once back at the manor, Prue stopped at the door and sat on the stairs.
"What is it?" Piper asked and sat next to her.
"Dr. Griffiths is still in there." Prue said quietly.
Piper cleared her throat.
"Do you think Leo found her?"
"I hope so." Prue said quietly.
* * * *
Leo orbed into the small cave-like area where he had left Phoebe and was instantly worried. She was nowhere to be seen.
He noticed an athame on the ground and his stomach sank. He walked over to it and crouched down. He picked up the bloody athame and looked at the small puddle of blood before him.
He blinked away the tears and orbed out, still holding the athame.

He appeared in the foyer and looked around. It was then he heard whispers from outside. Confused, he walked over to the good door and opened it. He poked his head out and saw Prue and Piper sitting.
"Leo?" Prue asked quickly and turned around.
She and Piper quickly got up and rushed to the door. They pulled it open with such force that it too fell off his hinges.
Ignoring the falling door, Prue and Piper rushed into the foyer and looked around wildly.
"Where is she?" Prue asked and turned to Leo.
Leo said nothing, but tears began streaming down his cheeks.
"Where is she?" Prue asked much louder, the tears forming in her eyes. A few spilled down her cheeks as she went over to Leo and grabbed him by the shirt roughly. "Where is she!"
Leo began sobbing and lifted the bloody athame up so Prue could see it.
"No." Prue said quietly. "No. No."
"Phoebe!?" Piper called out suddenly, tears flowing freely down her face. "PHOEBE!?"
"No!" Prue screamed and knocked the athame from Leo's hand.
She then fell to her knees, sobbing.
"Phoebe." Piper called one last time, then fell to her knees alongside Prue.
Leo looked from Dr. Griffiths' body to the girls and wondered about the future.
