Hey everybody-I am so sorry that I haven't updated in a while, I have just been really busy with college and the laptop that I am using had some faulty letters so I couldn't type anything good. I am back now and will try to update on a regular basis so thank you to anyone who has read this story so far.

Previous chapter:

Both sisters rushed over to Piper and saw the amount of blood that she had lost. "Leo!Leo!" they both yelled, their voices full of emotion. A swirl of blue and white lights came into the room and Leo rushed straight to Piper holding his hands out over her chest and a golden glow shone under them yet the wound would not heal and Piper remained motionless. Leo looked up at the others tears in his eyes and Phoebe shook her head letting the tears fall. "NO! Don't say it please?" she sobbed looking at the whitelighter and then at Prue whose face was devoid of all emotion. Phoebe leaned over her sister trying to wake her up. "Come on Piper!This isn't funny."she said her voice trembling.

A pair of hands wrapped around Pheobes shoulders as her eldest sister tryed to comfort her and gently leaned over Pheobe prieing her hands away from Piper's body before whispering soothing words into her hair as they made to leave the attic leaving Leo alone with his wife.

Remus Lupin walked into the room to find horror. She has lost everybody now! he thought grimly before walking up to the bed. "Paige,Paige. Sweetie its Remus." he said moving to grab the girls shoulder but pulling short when a wand was pointed in his face.

"How do I know it's you?" she asked anger evident in her voice as Remus frowned at the young teenager before replying softly.

"You saved Sirius back in third year with Harry and Hermione using her time turner." Paige looked unsure of what to do and stood up to look out of the window.

"Where will I go and who have I got now?" she asked in a broken tone before sighing and looking down at the floor.

Chapter 6: Dealing with the loss

The girls usually sparkling green eyes were replaced with a dullness as she looked out of her window and saw little children running up to their parents without a care in the world. I was like that once!she thought sadly before turning away from the window and walking over to her bed. It had been a little over a week now since the attack had taken place and for the majority of that time the grieving girl had been up in her room rarely leaving unless it was for meal times or going to the bathroom. Grimmuld Place was like a second home to her when she wasn't at home or at Hogwarts but at the moment it seemed that it was going to be her home when she came back from Hogwarts as she had nowhere else to go. She didn't mind staying there, but it wasn't the same as her real home with her family and that was all she wanted more than anything else right now.

Everyone had been so nice and tryed to be understanding but no one could break down her barrier and get her to talk about that awful night. They suspected that she had nightmares over it as she always looked worn out whenever she made an appearence but again she brushed off their concern and told them not to worry.

She laid her head down on the pillow and closed her eyes,only to open them a moment later as the dreadful scene came back to haunt her.Can't i have any peace! she thought angrily as her bedroom door opened slightly. "Who's there?" she snapped holding out her wand and watching as the door creaked open a little more as two figures walked into the room.

"It's me and Harry, Paige." said a cautious female. Paige peered closer at the two figures and noted that they were indeed her best friends and placed her wand down on the bed before running up to her friends crying softly on their shoulders.

"Oh you guys-it's so good to see you.I've missed you both so much!" she whispered as she pulled away from her best friends and noted how both had worried and questioning expressions upon their faces. Typical! she thought smiling for the first time since the attack had taken place.

"How are you?" her friend asked gently as they sat down on the looked away for the moment wondering how to answer that question.

Well Hermione can read me and Harry like a book so I guess honesty is the best policy here! she thought smiling again at that thought. "Well...at first I was going to lie and make out that I was fine..." she paused for a moment looking at the glare coming from both of her friends before adding, "But then I thought about how well you both knew me-especially you Hermione." she said looking at her best friend who had a soft smile on her face, before turning to look at Harry who looked a little glum."I-I-dammit!" she said angrily as she slammed her hands down on the bed and began crying once her friends wrapped their arms around her in a warm embrace and began whispering comforting words into her zoned out for a few moments enjoying the comfort that her best friends were giving her but zoned back in as she heard Harry laying the blame on himself.

"...It's my fault Paige and i'm so sor--" but he was cut off as Paige jumped back from the embrace and glared at Harry.

"HARRY JAMES POTTER, IF YOU DARE BLAME YOURSELF FOR SOMETHING YOU HAD NO CONTROL OVER, THEN I PROMISE YOU THAT I WILL SAVE VOLDEMORT THE JOB AND AK YOU MYSELF RIGHT NOW! IS THAT UNDERSTOOD?" she snapped as she waved her hands about in the air and was surprised when the mirror on the wall exploded into a million pieces in a moment. She quickly dropped her hands down on the bed and began to look at them in awe and was shocked at the amount of accidental magic that had just been displayed and turned to look at Harry who was looking between shocked and guilty.

What the hell is happening to me? Paige wondered fearfully as she looked up into her friends faces guilt written all over her face.

Meanwhile in San Francisco:

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two women sat huddled together looking at a picture of a third woman who had been taken away from them for unfair reasons. "Why did they do this Prue-is this some sick way of rewarding us for protecting all those innocents?" the youngest asked as she stood up and began to pace along the floor glaring angrily at the floor whilst Prue looked up at her sister and sighed. This last week hadn't been easy on any of them but no one was taking it harder than Phoebe and Prue wished that she could some how take away all of the pain that they were both feeling but she knew that she couldn't. Right now her youngest sister needed her and I have to stay strong!Prue thought as she stood up and walked over to Phoebe blocking her path.

"I don't know Pheebs-I really don't know" she said softly as she wrapped her arms around Phoebe and pulled her close whispering comforting words into her hair.

Phoebe was crying openly in her sisters arms as she pictured the night over and over again in her head."It's not fair!" she sobbed onto her sisters shoulder, gripping her tightly as she pulled back for a moment and looked into her sisters eyes noting how she had tears threatening to spill over yet she kept holding them back. She doesn't always need to be strong! she thought sadly before hugging her sister once more. "You can cry too Prue-it doesn't make you weak." she said gently as she felt her sister shake softly against her, allowing the tears to fall at last.

When the sisters pulled apart again they both turned to the picture of the sister they had picked up the picture as Prue went to make them both a drink and held it tightly against her chest when she was overcome with a vision.

A teenage girl was sitting on a bed with another girl and boy crying about something when the demon that had killed Phoebe's sister appeared in the room and went after the traumatized girl, who turned and put her hands in a protective gesture freezing the demon as she did so.

Phoebe came out of the vision and fell back onto the chair shaking as the picture fell to the ground. Prue rushed into the room expecting to find a demon attacking her sister but was shocked to find her sister shaking and looking towards the fireplace so knelt down in front of her sister and took one hand in hers. "Phoebe whats wrong-was it-was it a premonition?" she asked looking at her sister who just nodded. Suddenly Phoebe looked at Prue with pain filled eyes and began to speak.

"There was a girl sat on a bed with another girl and a boy-the girl was crying about something-then the demon that ki--killed Piper appeared and went after the girl who turned around and she-she fro--"Pheobe paused for a moment as fresh tears ran down her looked Prue directly in the eye and finished, "she froze him-ju-just like Pi-Piper." in a shocked and dis-believing tone.

Prue jumped back for a moment and looked at Phoebe waiting for her to say 'Haha! fooled ya' or something but when she didn't Prue just said"WHAT?" in an angry tone.
