Prue just kept on walking, she just wanted to get away from that house,
from what she saw, from what had happened. All she had planned to do was
watch Piper and her sisters do a little hocus pocus and that would be it.
She hadn't intended on anything happening, it was just going to be a bit of
fun.
Now, well now she had seen her whole family turn into these creatures, and watch them disappear in flames. And to be told that you have sisters you never knew you had, how was someone supposed to deal with it?
'This is what happens in films and TV shows, it doesn't happen in real life. It doesn't happen to me," Prue thought. But it did happen in real life, people are adopted, and it had just happened to Prue.
Sixteen years, that's how long Prue had lived her life so far. Sixteen years with good and bad times, mostly good, it had been an enjoyable sixteen years. But it could all change. To think that those years had been a lie, her so-called family a lie, it just wasn't right. Where was she supposed to go from here? Move in with the Halliwell's? Pretend that she had known them her whole life, that what had been her family and life had never existed? That was impossible.
"What else can you do than move in with your sisters?" A voice asked from behind her. Prue stopped in her tracks. Who was there and how did that person know what she was thinking about? She hesitantly turned around slowly, to see a woman standing there. Brown hair and eyes, she looked a lot like Piper.
"W-who are you?"
"I'm your mother Prue."
"Piper's mother? But she's..dead."
"Yes I am but that's how magic can help you."
"Magic?"
"You've already seen it, when you were back at the manor."
"I have somewhere to go, and dead people don't just come back to life."
"But you haven't got anywhere to go."
"Actually I have."
"Your boyfriend's house? To Andy's?" Patty asked.
"How did you.." Piper must have told her. "Just leave me alone, you don't know who I am or anything about me."
"I know that you are my daughter taken sixteen years ago."
"You don't know that for sure."
"How can you explain that you look nothing like what was your family and a lot like your sisters?"
"It's just a coincidence, and I do not look like them! Why does everyone say that to me?"
"Because it's true. Please Prue, I don't expect you to trust me, but please come back to the manor with me and your sisters. They will be here in a matter of seconds, they are looking for you. All I ask is that you come with me and your sisters and hear what I have to say."
"This is just a mistake," Prue turned her back to Patty and began to walk away. Patty held Prue's wrist and pulled her back.
"This is not a mistake, you think that your family turning into demons asking you to be evil is a mistake and getting vanquished? You can't pretend it didn't happen, they are gone."
"I know they are gone! Gone because of me, because if I hadn't sneaked out of my room to go to Piper's they would still be here, and I wouldn't be in this mess. This can't be anything but a mistake," silent tears fell down Prue's cheeks as the realization that her family was gone hit her, it she felt like it was her fault."
"Don't blame yourself, they were the ones who stole you from me. They ended their lives on their own."
"No you are wrong! It's all my fault! Everything is my fault, it would be better if I was never born!" Prue shouted and ran off as Grams and the other three sisters caught up with Patty.
"Why is Prue running away?" Paige asked as Prue turned round a corner, out of their sight.
"It is too much for her to handle, she's blaming herself," Patty replied looking at her three beautiful daughters.
"So she's my twin?"
"You were born on the same day, only a matter of minutes of time apart from each other."
"Are we going to go after Prue?" Phoebe asked.
"No, we need to let her come to us when she's ready to."
Prue had reached Andy's house, she wiped the tears away from her face and knocked on the door. It didn't look like anyone was in, because the car wasn't there. But Andy could be in, and hopefully he would be.
The door opened, letting light flood into the dark evening.
"Prue what are you doing here?" Andy asked surprised.
"Can I come in?"
"Of course, is everything alright?" He said letting Prue step into the warm house.
"I don't know, it's all a big mess."
"What's a mess, what's happened?"
Prue looked into Andy's brown eyes. She could tell him anything, she had always told him everything. She could trust him, and she could let her guard down with him and let him know how she really felt.
They both sat down on the couch and Prue told him all that had happened so far during that night, and he listened not quite believing what he was hearing but Prue never lied to him and never made things up.
"Patty I really think we should go and find Prue, it's nearly mid-night, the girls are asleep, let's just bring her here," Grams said looking at Piper, Phoebe and Paige asleep in the living room on the couch and chairs.
"I think she needs some time to sort it out in her head first, it's a lot for someone to come to terms with."
"It would be safer if she was here with us while she accepts everything."
"We don't want to drive her away completely, if we give her this freedom then she will know we don't want her to think we want to control her."
"If your not going to get her then I will."
"But you don't know where she is. She has just lost the only family she had, well she knew she had and has learned that she has a twin and two other sisters. How do you think she feels?"
Now, well now she had seen her whole family turn into these creatures, and watch them disappear in flames. And to be told that you have sisters you never knew you had, how was someone supposed to deal with it?
