Apocolpse Not...Ms


Piper and Phoebe instantly wrapped thier arms around Prue as she was pulled from the vortex.

The three of them stood and watched as the Four Horsemen were disintegrated to ashes before their eyes.

Piper looked at her sister who stayed in the arms of the youngest, "Prue, are you alright?"

Phoebe held tight fearing if she let go her sister would be gone again "It's okay now, everything's gonna be okay now."

Prue didn't know what to feel. One minute she was running for her life, the next she was in her sisters' arms. "Thanks, for saving my life."

Piper stepped closer and placed a loving hand on Prue's arms as she placed her head next to Prue's.


The drive home was made in silence as Piper drove, one hand hanging on to Prue, keeping that connection she had come so close to losing.

Phoebe, who normally would be riding in the back seat, was sharing the front seat with Prue, another sister not wanting to let go what she nearly lost.

They had walked up the stairs holding one another's hand forming a continuous link.

Phoebe drew her big sister into a loving hug, "I'm sorry Prue."
"It's ok Phoebs. You two made the right choice." She held her sister in her arms as she took Pipers hand in her free one.
"P3?" Piper asked though not really sure if they were ready to go out on the town so soon after everything that they had just been through.
"Why not?" Prue was the first to answer as she gave Phoebe, who had yet to let go of her, a quick hug before she started up to her room.

As Prue went to her room to change her mind kept thinking on what Piper and Phoebe had told her what had happened. She couldn't believe her younger sisters had to go through all that on their own. But then they weren't alone, they had each other.

As she opened her closet she noticed the figure walk into her room.

"I thought we were getting ready for P3?" Prue asked wondering why her baby sister was in her room and not in her own.
"We are, I was looking for something to wear." Phoebe started to flip through things in Prue's closet pulling out what she wanted.

Prue watched with amazement as Phoebe made the simplest task seem nearly impossible. But her sister soon had what she wanted and Prue was excepting her to leave so she herself could get ready. But to Prue's surprise her sister started to change in her room. "Um Phoebs?"
"Prue?" Phoebe looked up briefly before continuing her journey of getting ready for the party.
"We'll you have what you wanted, and what I wanted." She added in knowing her sister had taken the top she wanted to wear, "Why are you still here?"
"I might change my mind. Easier this way."
"I see." Though as Prue watched Phoebe she really did see. Her baby sister was scared. "Phoebe."
"Prue look I'll go as soon as I'm done raiding your closet and getting ready. Promise."
"I don't think so." Prue walked up to Phoebe and wrapped her arms around her. "You haven't let me out of your sight since I came through that vortex."

Phoebe wanted to argue with her sister but she couldn't she had been afraid ever since she got her vision; or was it before that? When she lost her sister to start with.

"Phoebe it's ok to be scared. I was, and I know Piper was. I felt it when I passed through her in the attic."

Phoebe fought to hold in her tears. She had been fighting with herself ever since she got her vision in the alley. Or was it before that? When she lost the only mother she had ever known.

She felt the tears starting to break through as she closed her eyes and rested her head back on Prue's shoulder.

Prue held on as Phoebe broke down. "I was trying to be strong."
"Its ok sweetie I got you now. You don't have to be strong anymore."
"I was going to…
"Ssshhh its ok. Everything is going to be ok now." Prue held on tight as they both eased themselves to the bed and Phoebe cried in Prue's arms.

"Ok lets get this show…." Piper stopped when she saw her two sisters, one holding the other as she cried uncontrollably in her arms.

Piper heard Phoebes words echo in her mind, 'everything would be all right now'. It wasn't before and it wasn't now. Phoebe was inconsolable as Prue held her. The fear of losing someone she loved was breaking the youngests' heart.

Piper moved and sat on the bed next to her sisters. Taking Phoebes hand in hers, she let her sister know she was not alone in her fears.

Someone thought it, someone said it, and they all agreed. "Sister night?"
"Yes." The answer came between fits of tears.
"But at P3." It was Phoebes voice that came through this time. "We need a change of venue."

It remained the same. They finished getting ready and made their way to Pipers jeep. But the whole time Phoebe stayed within a grasp of Prue.

They had moved through the crowd to their private alcove. Phoebe sitting beside Prue keeping that connection she had had all night long.

Prue held on to Phoebes hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze, "I love you. And you made the right call."

Phoebe rested her head briefly on Prue's shoulder, "Love you too."

The music played loudly as the beat echoed through out the club. But as they all danced the night away they never had a clue they had been so close to losing everything. Love, hate, anger, lust, friendship, everything gone in that one second of an eye blink. That one second when two sisters decided it was better to lose one they loved then to lose it all. To save five strangers then one sibling. The one for the greater good. The hardest lesson any loved one should learn. But tonight it turned out that love won out over evil and will for a few more battles. But one day evil would get the upper hand to good and the cost would be painful and irreplaceable.

The connection would remain strong tonight and all nights. But their love would be eternal. Everything would be alright now.
