Chapter 12 - "3 hours? Why didn't you call me earlier?"

Phoebe and Paige could hear a plane circurling closer to their house. It was 10mins after Paige

had made the call. Prue and Bane were approaching the Halliwell house.

"Why is there a plane about to land at your house, does your sister fly?" an exhausted Bane asked.

"No. I don't know why he's gonna land here." Prue got to the front door and stopped to catch her

breath. Bane stopped as well and looked at Prue.

"Are you okay?"

"Yeah." Prue answered. "Just a little tired, we had quite a hike."

The plane landed and a doctor rushed out with his medical bag.

"Where is Piper?" he asked.

"Piper? What's wrong with Piper?" Prue was puzzled.

"She's been hurt. Her sisters called me out here. Excuse me, i have to go in." The doctor pushed

past Bane and Prue and went inside.

"Oh god." Prue ran inside. Bane followed, he wasn't sure what to expect.

The doctor had found where Piper was and attended to her immediately. "I'm Nate Perry. How long

has she been like this?"

"We don't know. We found her just over 3 hours ago." Paige said.

"We think she had been hurt much earlier than that." Phoebe added.

"3 hours? Why didn't you call me earlier? I gotta fix her up now, RIGHT now. Excuse me sir, could

you help me mover her into a more appropriate spot?" Dr. Perry was looking at Bane.

"Sure, anything to help." Bane and Nate moved Piper into the room where Danny was fixed up.

"Ladies, please wait here until i call. Mr..."

"Jessop" Bane said as he was helping to carry Piper.

"Mr. Jessop, could you stay with me while i work on her?"

"I'm no doctor, but of course i will." The guys and Piper disappeared out of the house.

"Bane Jessop? Who is he?" Paige asked Prue.

"Where the hell were you Prue? We were worried sick." Phoebe was tense.

"I'm sorry i didn't call but i couldn't. I ran into Bane on the way home from work. He had demon

problems and he needed my help. I didn't trust him at first, but i do now. How did this happen

to Piper??"

"Were not sure exactly, we weren't there when it did. In the short time that she was awake, she

said that some guy..demon probably, called Alec was there. That's all she said." Phoebe told Prue.

"Wait a second, Alec? That's the guy Bane was telling me about. He saw us when we were in the

next town about an hours walk from here. He was telling the truth then."

"Okay, so his story holds up, for now. Lets just hope Piper is going to be okay." Paige settled.
