p3charmed4eva - I am guessing you didn't like my cliffie. But, don't worry. I am updating, so it won't be a cliffie for much longer. I am happy you are happy that Piper kicked some serious behind. Also, thank you for sparking an idea for this chapter.

Jules713 - I know I said no more suspense, but don't worry, it won't be much longer. I really don't feel like doing too much of this, I just feel like expressing what everyone is going through.

Now, the wanted chapter 25...

:::::::

Everyone in the room was shocked. They knew Piper's injuries were bad, but not that bad. They all knew the seriousness of comas. Andy had done a project on comas two years back, and kept telling people random information about them. Information like, if someone dropped into a coma, they had, at most, a 20% chance of ever waking up.

'It's not fair!' Leo thought. 'Piper doesn't deserve this! She is the sweetest, kindest, most beautiful person I know. She wouldn't hurt a fly! I've only known her for a couple of weeks, but I already think I... love her.' Leo thought this with a painful realization. The love of his life was in a coma. She might never wake up.

"And," the doctor continued uneasily, not willing to trouble them further. "During examination, we found countless cuts and bruises all over her body, except for her face. There were also abrasions on her wrists and ankles, most likely rope burns. We did a mandatory rape test, but, luckily, found it negative." the doctor finished, looking at the stricken listeners. He sighed. He hated delivering this type of news to people who didn't deserve to hear it.

"Ca-can we s-see h-her?" Phoebe asked, between sobs. "Yes," the doctor said. "But, only one of you at a time. And, only for ten minutes every two hours. She is in the intensive care hallway, room 2a. You have to talk to the chief doctor of that unit before you see her, though." the doctor said this, then exited the room.

"Well, which of you kids want to see her first?" Grams asked. She wouldn't dream of seeing her granddaughter first, even though she didn't really want the kids to see her either, after what they had heard. "Well, I've already seen her." Paige said, sadly. "So have I." Prue said, looking over at Paige. "Well, I don't think any of us boys have a right to see her first. Family should." Glenn added. He then looked at Phoebe. "Okay." Phoebe said, then added, "But are you entirely sure they will allow me to get out of this wheelchair?" "Yes, I think they will. Let me go talk to them." Grams said, then left the room.

;;;;;;;;

It was about ten minutes later, and Phoebe was walking down the hallway towards Piper's room. She, Andy, and Leo had been discharged from the hospital, since their injuries were more minor than the two younger boys'. She had gotten permission from the chief doctor to see Piper, and a nurse would be getting her when her ten minutes were up. She reached the door, and hesitated a bit. She had heard what the doctor had said, and was a little afraid to see her older sister. But then she turned the handle, knowing that her time was limited, and she didn't want to spend it just standing outside of the door.

She walked in, then froze in her tracks. Her older sister was lying in the middle of the big white hospital bed. She was dwarfed even more by the numerous machines around her, hooked up to her. The only sounds Phoebe could here were the drip-drip of the IV and the steady beeping of the machine monitoring her heart rate. She walked up and took Piper's hand. She looked up the arm that the hand was at the end of, and saw that the doctor was telling the truth. The skin around Piper's wrists was rubbed raw. Her arm had multiple cuts and bruises on them. Phoebe then looked up at her face. It was clear of marks, except for the bandage around the top of her head. Phoebe would have thought she was sleeping, if it weren't for the telltale signs around her that her older sister wasn't sleeping, like the ventilator. Piper looked so small and pale, that Phoebe realized the horrors of what had happened. "It'll be okay, Piper, everything will be just fine." Phoebe said, more to herself than to Piper. She spent her time rubbing Piper's hand and looking at her face. She kept reassuring Piper that everything would be fine.

;;;;;;;;

The other six were waiting in Billy's room. They would normally be in the waiting room, but they wanted to be together. The door opened, and they all looked to see Phoebe coming in. "Pheebs." Prue said, looking at her sister.

Phoebe couldn't handle it anymore. Her knees gave out, and she broke down into sobs. "Phoebe!" Prue said, as she ran over to comfort her younger sister, along with all the others that could run. When Prue, Paige, Andy, and Leo sat down next to her, "I want to kill him!" Phoebe said, still sobbing. "I want to kill that bastard and send him straight to hell! Piper didn't deserve this! It's not fair! It's just not fair!" She then buried her head in Prue's shoulder and cried.

At this moment, everyone began to cry, even the boys. They all felt that Phoebe, the one who always tried to lighten the mood and brighten someone's day, was crying her heart out was a harsh realization of the heartlessness of Mr. Connel. They were all thinking the same thing. They wanted him dead.

AN: Oh no! I am sooo mean! Another cliffie, and more suspense. And, it's short. But, I'm not THAT mean. I mean, Piper wasn't raped. But, there is one, and only one, reason for that. I didn't feel like changing my rating. Also, I put both Leo and Phoebe's feelings in here. I know it was kind of centered on Phoebe, but I realized that I didn't have much of her yet. I felt it would be good to express as many feelings as I could. Oh, and do they SO want him dead. I mean, you do, right? Let me know, and please review! This is after a song by Hootie & The Blowfish.
