It seemed like an eternity to Phoebe before she reached the hospital. It seemed that every traffic light she came to was red, and it seemed to her that all the cars were travelling at least twenty kilometers under the speed limit. When she finally arrived, she quickly parked and ran into the waiting room, looking frantically for Prue. She quickly spotted her older sister sitting in the far corner, her head buried in her hands. "Prue! What's happened?" Phoebe asked breathlessly, running over to her sister. Prue looked up at her little sister, her eyes red and puffy from crying. "What's happened to Piper?" Phoebe repeated the question, sitting down next to her older sister, and pulling her into a hug. "Well it started this morning when I handed her a glass of water" Prue started, pausing to compose herself. "Go on" Phoebe urged gently. "Well she dropped it. I didn't think there was a problem then but she did not even notice that it had spilt on her, and also did not know what I was talking about. Then she stood up and when she took a step she fell over, and could not put any pressure on her leg" Prue said, her voice beginning to shake "and then in the car she started convulsing" Prue was unable to say any more for she burst into tears. By then, Phoebe had begun to cry as well, hugging her older sister tighter and rocking her gently.
It had been hours since Phoebe had arrived and they still had not heard from anyone about Pipers condition, even though they had interrogated the nurse on duty several times. Prue and Phoebe were both asleep, resting comfortably against eachother. Phoebe was holding tightly a beautiful plush grey toy cat, which the two sisters had picked out for Piper while they were waiting. "Miss. Halliwell?" a mans voice said, waking both Prue and Phoebe. "Yes" Prue, said, still not quite awake yet. The doctor paused for a minute, waiting for the pair to fully wake up. Once he was sure they were both fully awake he began to talk. "After performing a few tests on your sister we have determined that she has a fairly severe case of encephalitis."
