Disclaimer: I do not own the series 'Charmed' (unfortunately). The
characters I own are the ones you haven't heard of. This was set for when
Prue was still alive.
Chapter 12
One by one, Piper, Leo and Prue reappeared in P3. Automatically, Prue spun round, knelt down and strangled Leo. "If it weren't for you, that witch would be dead- you big wuss! Are you really going to let that weakling whitelighter push you around?" The angrier Prue got- the tighter her grasp came around Leo's neck. Piper stomped over, "Prue! Get your murderous hands off Leo- I mean NOW!" Prue glared, "Don't even get me started with you!" Prue stood up, threw up her hands and sent Piper flying through the club. She landed on the bar and fell back into the empty alcohol bottles. A few smashed and a few full wine bottles fell and spilled all over the floor. Piper saw red. She raised her arms in the air and sent four lightening bolts at Prue. She dodged all of them and sent a big one towards Piper. Looking to her right, Piper spotted the hand mirror and held it in front of her face. It changed direction and hit Prue, who flew and crashed into a table and chairs due to the strength. Prue shook her head. She looked around, she felt different somehow. She felt like she was in direct danger and didn't feel the desire to kill, like she had five minutes ago. Leo and Piper stood in front of Prue and sent more energy balls her way. Prue fell to the floor and screamed. She whimpered and ran out of P3. Piper glared after her. Prue gasped for breath as she ran for her life. Her muscles ached, her entire body felt like it had been shocked continuously and her hair had frizzed out and was waving around like a desert tumbleweed. Prue didn't care. All she wanted was to get away as fast as she could and get home as soon as possible. She felt triumph as she closed in on the Halliwell Manor. She was exhausted from fear and running so fast, but she didn't slow her pace. Piper or Leo could be just around the corner and even one slight change in speed could be enough to be caught up with and slaughtered mercilessly. No, she had to focus on being safe. * * * * * * Phoebe opened her eyes and winced as Andy healed her. The peeling skin on Phoebe's body turned a natural peachy colour and healed itself. Her clothes, however, were still ruined. Phoebe stood up and ran upstairs, "I really think I should change my clothes!" she laughed nervously. She came back down around five minutes later wearing an old t- shirt and jeans. If being almost burnt to a crisp again was on the agenda, then she wanted to wear something that didn't matter so much if it burned. Suddenly, the front door burst open and Prue rushed in. Phoebe panicked and threw up her hands and showered her sister with water. Before Prue could yell at Phoebe, she tripped up on Phoebe's broken shoe and fell on the floor. She couldn't fight it any more and passed out into a deep sleep. Phoebe ran over to Prue's side and crouched down. Andy came over too. Prue had looked like Piper had when she had been hit and turned good. Prue had scratches, cuts and bruises all over, her clothes were torn in some places- the sleeves of her black and silver cardigan were completely ripped off and the bottom of it was tattered and rugged. Her long black hair was all messed up and her left arm was slowly oozing with blood- the sudden pour of water had made the flow worse. Andy had a hurt look on his face. It was hard to see a person he loved so much to be in such a terrible state. Andy healed Prue and she slowly regained consciousness. Her eyes fluttered open weakly as Phoebe stroked her sister's forehead gently. Prue seemed to recover quickly from her ordeal. She sat up immediately and looked at Phoebe, "Phoebe! You know better to put booby traps around the house- we're not 8 any more!" Phoebe sighed with relief. Prue wasn't evil, but what about the other two? "Sorry Prue, but that wasn't a booby trap, it was a new power." Prue looked confused. She immediately brightened, "Phoebe! That's great!" she hugged her but felt a pain in her arm, "Ow!" Phoebe and Andy propped her up on the wall so Prue could sit upright. "Prue, I'll explain later, but what happened to you?" Prue looked fearful, "It was the weirdest thing, all I remember is looking into a mirror and then the next thing I know I'm being hurled into some furniture. Piper and Leo looked so angry, so. evil. They started attacking me like I was a warlock or something- Ow!" Prue held her calf. After all of that running, she must've pulled a muscle in her leg. She felt a hand stroke her hair. She turned her head to face Andy, who smiled at her. Prue's vision clouded as her eyes filled with tears. She always envisioned seeing Andy again since he died but she always thought she'd be overexcited, not overwhelmed. She leaned forward and hugged him, unable to speak. She never ever wanted to let him go. She noticed that his clothes were slightly burned. She swallowed and spoke, "Andy," she asked him, "Why are your clothes burned? What happened?" Andy broke their embrace and explained, along with Phoebe's help. Prue gaped at the both of them. Every moment or so, flashbacks came to her mind of what had happened- including when Piper had turned her into a chew toy. Next came the memory of what happened before she had run for dear life. Prue shook the terrible thoughts out of her head. She looked at Phoebe, "I guess I shouldn't have ignored you when you mentioned the switch demon. What happens now? How do we thwart that warlock." Phoebe hugged her arms, "Well. that's not our only problem. Firstly, we need Piper to vanquish the demon and secondly, that's not the only evil thing that we're up against." Phoebe explained about Xavier and how close that he had come to murdering her. Prue shifted patiently. What they needed now was Piper. * * * * * * "Hah!" Piper shouted in disgust, "that Prue is such a." Piper searched for an appropriate word, but couldn't come up with one, "First of all she's like a power hungry maniac, next she's a total baby- running out of here whimpering like that, what a wuss!" Leo lent on the bar with his hands in the pockets of his black jeans, "She's faking it." He said. He stared at, nothing really, just into thin air. "Faking what?" Piper looked at Leo. What was he talking about? "She's acting like she's scared of us- trying to make us think we've won. Even thought late at night, she'll smother us to death, or maybe decapitate us." Piper clasped both her hands round her throat. Nothing like that was going to happen to her and Leo. Well, not her anyway. "You're right, Leo," she agreed, "Prue must be obliterated!" Leo picked up a small butter knife and tossed it into the air. It hovered for a second and then morphed into a machete. It then switched back into motion and landed neatly in Leo's palm. He closed his fingers around the handle and smiled evilly. "Let's go." Piper said. Both of them walked upstairs but Leo suddenly stopped, "Wait a second. We're warlocks." And with that, he blinked out. Piper smiled and blinked out after him. * * * * * * Phoebe paced up and down impatiently while Prue's eyes followed her sister, "Phoebe, walking back and forth in the corridor isn't gonna help us." "I know!" Phoebe snapped. Jeez, you save someone from being eternally evil and they go all sceptical on you! "We need Piper to stop the switch demon but it's too dangerous to go back to P3. It's not like she'll come here." "You're wrong, witch!" the voice scared the life out of Phoebe, Prue and Andy. Piper and Leo walked in and stood beside each other, menacingly. Prue grinned and laughed nervously as her charmed instinct kicked in. She put her hand on Andy's shoulder and spoke shakily, "Andy, get the mirror from P3!" Andy immediately orbed out, leaving the two sisters against the two 'warlocks'. Phoebe put her arm in front of Prue defensively. She knew that her sister was injured even though she tried to hide it so she had to do her best from making Prue's pain even worse. Leo advanced on Phoebe. She winced apologetically, "I'm so sorry Leo. I know I'll regret this. HIYA!" Phoebe kicked and sent Leo shooting backwards onto the stairs. Andy orbed in behind Prue. "It's not anywhere! I couldn't find it!" he panicked. This wasn't good at all. "Looking for this?" Piper dangled the mirror by its handle tauntingly in front of Phoebe. She blinked out and appeared beside Leo. "This is for evil everywhere!"
