'Up there'
Prue wears a white gown overlooking the horizon. Piper appears behind Prue and calls out her name. Prue turns around at the sound of Piper's voice.
"Piper what are you doing here," Prue asks shocked to Piper as she walks to her.
"I died a while ago, Prue. Mom said I could see you now," says Piper softly.
"You're still dead? Wait- it's not your time you must go back."
"Back? What are you talking about? I died Prue; it's impossible for me to go back." Prue pulls Piper in to a tight hug.
"Piper I love you and don't think otherwise when I say you don't belong here. You should be alive right now, something went wrong. I can feel it Piper; you don't belong here, not now. You're going back." Prue says as much she cans before Piper gets taken away from here.
"Prue-"
"Shush sweetie, just trust me on this... The elders don't what's happen Piper but you must trust the people you're about to meet soon. You'll have to trust them; our family depends on it." Prue says as she pushes some of Piper's hair out of her eyes.
Piper's body begins to flicker out of focus.
"Prue what's going on?" Prue lets go of Piper, she tries to talk but her words won't come. Piper starts to flicker repeatedly then she fades out.
"Prue," Piper calls out as she disappears...

"I'm scared, and you should be, too. Everything we've worked for could be destroyed with one stupid mistake. Our future- our entire destiny -could be wiped out like that," Prue tells Piper as she snaps her fingers. At the same time a gun blast is heard. Piper has been hit.
Piper looks down and sees her hands covered in her own blood. Her blood seeps out of wound in her torso.
She collapses into Prue's arms.
Outside among voices one stands out, the voice that says "I killed the wicked witch!"
"Leo," Prue cries out as she looks down at Piper.
She notices Piper shaking worried Prue says reassuringly that "Piper it's going to be ok. We'll get you to the hospital."

Hospital

Piper is rushed in as she lays shaking on the gurney. Prue calls for Leo again but still no answer.
"Seventy and weak."
Piper is being transported from the gurney to the operating table. Her color is turning to a slight grayish blue.
"Small entry wound upper back, large exit lower abdomen."
"Lungs are failing."
Prue attempts again calling for Leo.
Nothing.
"He can't hear you. Something must of gone wrong," Piper says weakly.
Prue reaches for her hand and she whispers "Don't die on me."
Struggling Piper says softly, "Prue. I'm cold."
Prue's heart shatters.
"I can't feel my legs." Piper turns her head and tells Prue, "Don't go. I love you."

Prue tired tear stained face look at Piper and tells her, "- will fix it. Everything's going to be fine."

Manor

"Dear God," mutters Doctor Griffith's as he sees Shaxs launching his powers at him.
Prue pushes the doctor out of the way and takes the blast in the chest. The force sends her flying through the wall landing in the sun porch.
"Prue"
***
Piper awakes screaming for Prue. Beads of sweat come sliding down her forehead, her tousled hair moves by the slight wind of her panting.
After catching her breath Piper notices she's in an unfamiliar area. She looks around her room, then her clothes... They're different not the ones she died in, they're black sleepwear.
Then Piper realizes that she's breathing, quickly she brings her hand to her neck. Not a mark on her throat to be felt.
Shocked Piper starts to panic; she goes over to a mirror nearby. As she looks at her self she's amazed that there's not a single mark on her.
Startled Piper hears knocking on the door, then a voice that follows. "Piper, don't be alarmed let me explain what is happening," Avis says as she pushes the door open a little.
Piper's not having it; she tires to use her exploding power an excruciating pain comes from her forehead. Piper doubles over in pain, clutching at her head. The cross going through the triquatra appears giving an intense white light.
Then Piper drops onto her knees crying out in agony.
Avis cautiously walks over to Piper, raising an arm to her sensitive eyes to block out whatever light she can. Piper cries out louder causing Avis to touch her shoulder in hopes to take some of her pain away from her.
"Piper, relax you are far too weak and under train to use your powers. Forgive me for not telling you. Just relax and trust me," says Avis in a calm soothing tone.
'You'll have to trust them,' Prue's voice echoes in Piper's head. As if reading her mind Avis asks, "Did Prue tell you about us?"
"All she said was to trust you," Piper says softly that Avis had to strain her ears to hear. Relaxing somewhat the light Piper gives off starts to dim along with the pain.
"Good Piper now breathe, try to think positive thoughts." Piper does as she is told and the light disappears.
Taking it as a good sign Avis introduces herself. "I help to bring you back from the dead Piper."
Anger spreads across Piper's face, "why did you bring me back? How did you know Prue?"
"Prue knew about my story through a prophet 'up there' and summoned me right away. After talking we discovered that we both have the same enemies. So Prue and I struck a deal we work together killing our common enemies. I grantee your safety along with your sisters, since Prue was no longer there to protect you two, well now three."
"Oh no, my sisters. Oh Paige-"
"Don't worry I sent some one to tell them about your whereabouts. You still haven't broken your promise to Paige," said Avis smirking.
"How did-"
"In time you'll be able to do it also. Now you need to rest, you're extremely weakened from last night's events." Avis helps Piper over to her bed.
"Last night? Why does it seem longer than that?"
"You're quite out of it that's why."
"How come Prue didn't want me to stay with her? Why was she so eager for me to go back?"
"Prue found some information about the elders and what they plan to do with the charmed ones once you guys completed your destiny. What Prue found upset her greatly and since she's dead she went to a prophet friend of hers that introduced her to me.
The elders want you three dead Piper, they think you three posses too much power and they fear you three will take their place once you guys retire. So they struck a deal with Cole and together they set you up to go to Raum by yourself. They prevented Leo from coming. Basically it was an assassination attempt on you and they got it.
They don't know you're alive now all the elders know is that you're with Prue and it'll stay that way. Prue with the prophets help cast a spell to make them think that. My job is to train you with your knew powers to first take out our enemies before we take out the elders. It's important we keep your identity a secret, Piper."
"I knew all along about the elders, I knew it."
"That's why they killed you Piper. The elders knew you would be the one to take them out, given your history with them. Prue made me promise to protect you and your sisters with my life like she did. Now you must rest I fear I shouldn't have told you all this."
"No I'm glad you did. My mind is can rest for the moment now. Thank you. I just don't want to rest now I have a few more questions to ask-"
"Please Piper it is very important you rest now all the questions you have will be answered later." Piper looked as if she's about to protest but before she could say anything Avis speaks " Here drink this." Avis holds out her hand and automatically appears a glass of water.
Piper grabs it and drinks it, seconds later she falls asleep. Avis quickly grabs the glass before it could shatter.
"Forgive me, Piper."
