Prue's POV
I was the first one awake and I was trying to figure out what I was supposed to do about Charlotte. Paige can be a big troublemaker at times, but I still love her. Just them Paige and Charlotte walked down.
Paige: So are you going to adopt Charlotte?
Prue: I have given it a lot of thought and if it means that much to you. Yes I will.
Paige: (excited and hugs her big sister) Oh thank you, Prue. I love you so much
Prue: (smiles) You're welcome.
(Phoebe then walks downstairs)
Phoebe: Prue, I'm so sorry for what I said. I didn't mean it. I was just mad.
Prue: Pheebs, I know it's ok.
Phoebe: I love you
Prue: Right back at you little sis
(Prue went to the orphanage with Charlotte and signs the adoption papers and leaves with Charlotte)
(Back at the manor)
Piper: Pheebs, what's wrong?
Phoebe: Last night after Prue punished you and Paige, she told me to get ready for bed and I told her I hated her, but I also called her Prudence. I just feel guilty even though I apologized.
Piper: Well then you have nothing to feel guilty about.
(Prue walks in the front door with Charlotte)
Paige: Prue! Char!
Prue: Hi Paige
Charlotte: Paigey
Prue: Piper, Phoebe say hello to you're new little sister, Charlotte.
Piper/Phoebe: Hi Charlotte
(One month later)
Piper's POV
Today I am in charge of my three little sisters, so I decided to take them to the park. But when the ice cream truck came by Charlotte wanted an ice cream, but I said no.
Charlotte: Pipe, can I have an ice cream?
Piper: Not now
Charlotte: (sadly and gives ger the puppy dog face) But I thought you loved me?
Piper: I do love you, but I don't want it to spoil your dinner.
Charlotte: Pipe, please I won't let it spoil my dinner.
Piper: Sorry Charlie I said no
Charlotte: I want ice cream... (each time she repeated it she got louder and at first Piper ignored her) I want ice cream... I WaNt IcE CrEaM... I WANT ICE CREAM... I WANT ICE CREAM
Piper: (sternly) Charlotte Rose Marie Matthews, stop right now. (Charlotte shivered at her full name and stopped knowing it would only make it worse for her when Piper told Prue)
Charlotte: Pipe, please don't tell Prue. I'm sorry
Piper: Sorry baby but you disobeyed. (It pained Piper to see her little sister so scared but she had to tell Prue so she would learn)
Charlotte: I'm really sorry, Pipe.
Piper: I know (calls her other two sisters) Paige, Phoebe time to go. (Phoebe comes but Paige is nowhere to be seen)
Phoebe: I'm ready
Piper: Where's Paige?
Phoebe: I don't know.
Piper: Ok let's go home. We can scry for her there.
(At the manor)
Prue: (sternly) Piper, where's Paige?
Piper: (nervously) I lost her, I'm going up to the attic to scry. Oh by the way Charlotte threw a tantrum over ice cream. (Piper then goes up to the attic)
Prue: (sternly) Charlotte Rose Marie Matthews, go to your room and wait for me. (scared Charlotte runs upstairs)
Phoebe: Prue, I'm sorry
Prue: Pheebs, what are you sorry for?
Phoebe: I was the last one with Paige, so it's my fault she's missing.
Prue: Pheebs, it's not your fault. Paige ran away and she is in so much trouble. I love you
Phoebe: I love you, too.
(Prue goes upstairs to deal with Charlotte)
Prue: Charlotte, you know why you are in trouble right?
Charlotte: Yes, because I threw a tantrum when Pipe said no.
Prue: Ok then (pulls Charlotte over her knee and starts the spanking)
Charlotte: (whimpering) Aww... Ow... Pwue stop... Ow Pwue... I'm sorry... Please I'm sorry... Beary sorry
Prue: (stops the spanking) I know you are, but throwing a tantrum doesn't get you your way. It gets you a trip over my knee.
Charlotte: I know and I'm sorry Pwue. I love you
Prue: I know baby. I love you too. Can you apologize to Piper and get ready for bed.
Charlotte: Yes
(In the attic with Prue and Charlotte)
Charlotte: I'm sorry, Pipe
Piper: I know you are baby. I love you
Charlotte: I love you too Pipe. (leaves the attic)
Prue: So how is the scrying going?
Piper: Not good. She keeps moving, probably orbing.
Prue: Well she'll come back when she wants to. I think we should call it a night.
Piper: (yelling) Prudence, I don't think you understand. She is ten years old.
Prue: Piper, I know you're scared, but she does have powers. And if you don't stop yelling you're going to wake Phoebe and Charlotte.
Piper: Ok, I'm sorry I yelled at you Prue. I love you.
Prue: I know you are and I love you too.
