AN: Since a lot of you really wanted me to continue ASAP, I have. Sorry, no time to seperate reviews. Here is the next chapter.
Emily - Oh, don't worry, there are just little hints that there is magic. I might add magic if I do tons and tons of sequels to this story, but i doubt that I will be adding magic. Well, at least not in this story, or many of the future ones either. p3chrarmed4eva - yeah, I think there is more relevant irrelevant stuff in that chapter. Thanks! Gryffindor - Lol! That was funny. Thanks! AsherSmasher - Oh, I know, you hate cliffies. But, i am updating quicker than usual to make up for it! C.C. McKenna - Your welcome, and yes, I do know i took a while, but I had some writer's block. Not for this chapter, though! Thanks! piperleo4eva - Oh, I thought that I would get that stuff wrong. I didn't have any references for that, as Saving Private Leo airs next Tuesday, and it's Thursday. Boo. But, I knew that you all would want an update, so I just guessed. Yes, some people like that cliffie, others are in too deep of suspense to like it, but it's okay, I'm updating!
Now, the gleeful chapter 7...
:::::
"Damn black airbags." Prue said to herself, her voice muffled in the 'damn black airbag'. "Ugh!" she grunted as she pushed the airbag out of her face. "You okay, Pipe?" she asked, looking over at her younger sister. Her eyes were closed. "Piper?!?" Prue asked frantically, shaking her sister a little bit. Piper still didn't wake up. "Oh, crap!" Prue said, still trying futilely to wake up her sister.
Suddenly, despite the extremely loud storm happening outside of the car, another sound caught her attention. Well, another two sounds. There seemed to be a hiss coming from underneath the car. There was also a dripping noise. "Oh, crap!" Prue shouted, realizing that it couldn't be good. She and Piper needed to get out off the car right away. "Oh God, Piper, please wake up!" Prue said, trying one last time to wake up her unconscious sister. It still didn't work, so Prue began quickly unbuckling both of their seat belts. She then jumped out of the car, ran to the other side, and opened the passenger side door. She grabbed Piper out of the car, and dragged her sister away from it.
When they were about fifteen feet away, the car burst into flames. Prue stared at the car in awe. She realized how close she and Piper had been to being fried. "Ugh..." Prue looked down and saw her little sis waking up. "Hey, Pipe!" she said, kneeling down to be right by her sister. "My head hurts." Piper groaned. She then made to get up, but laid back down. "Yeah, you have a bit of a concussion." Prue said. "Does anything else hurt?" "My head." Piper moaned. "Okay, good. Nothing broken?" Prue asked, wanting to make sure everything was okay. "No." Piper said. Suddenly, she seemed to register that they were out in a thunderstorm. "AH! I'm wet." Piper said, quickly shooting up. "Ah, head!" she added, putting her head in her hands. "Yes, honey, you're wet." Prue said, smiling a little bit at Piper's sudden obliviousness. "We're in a thunderstorm." "Why? What happened? Why, exactly, does my head hurt?" Piper asked, looking from the quickly diminishing flames, to Prue, to the sky, and again. "Oh, honey, we got in a car accident. That would be our rental car." Prue said, pointing to the dissipating flames. "And all the stuff we had in there." Piper added. "Yup." Prue said. "Our clothes, our cell phones, our-"
"Correction." Piper said, pointing to her pocket, "Your cell phone." "Oh, Piper, I think you have Paige's ignorance of cell phones when you're not thinking straight!" Prue said, taking Piper's cell. She dialed home, and the phone rang twice before someone picked up. "Hello?" It was Phoebe. "Hey, Pheebs, we have a bit of a problem." Prue said quickly. "Yeah, I know, you guys aren't home yet, it's storming, and Grams isn't home either. Paige and I are freaked out of our minds." "Okay, that's not really a problem right now." "Then what is? You forget your makeup at the cemetery?" Phoebe asked smartly. "No. Piper and I got in a car accident. She has a concussion and Paige's ignorance of cell phones. We need t-" "Yeah, right, Prue!" Phoebe said in an amused voice. "Excuse me?" Prue asked. "Yeah, right. You two just want Paige and I to freak out more than we actually are. Well, you know what? You two can just (crackle) my (crackle)." "Phoebe! Phoebe! We're breaking up!" Prue said, then the line went dead. Prue closed the phone. "Great. Just great." she whispered sarcastically to herself.
"What?" Piper asked when she turned around. "Apparently, our little sister do-" "Which one?" Piper asked. "The full sister. In this case, I definitely would have made the distinction if it were half." Prue said a bit angrily. "Anyway, little Pheebs doesn't believe that we were actually in a car accident. She thinks that we're playing a prank on her. And, before I could explain, we broke up because of this damn storm." "Isn't that just spectacular?" Piper asked sarcastically. "Yes." Prue replied, equally sarcastic. "You know what? We have to get you to a hospital." she added, coming over to sit next to Piper. "How the hell are we supposed to do that? Unless, of course, you can fly. We are miles away from the city, and, it's pouring rain out here. We're both soaked!" Piper said, panicking, as usual. "Oh, God. And, it's night. What are we gonna do?" Prue said, panicking, but trying to hide it.
Just then, some lightening flashed, and Prue could see the outline of a house. "Hey, Pipe, did you see that?" Prue asked, staring at the house. "What?" asked Piper, looking up from her hands. "That house." Prue said, pointing across the road and onto the hill. "What about it?" Piper asked. "Oh, Pipe, we can stay there. Or, at least ask the people if we can stay there." Prue said, standing up. "What, Prue? Are you crazy? There is no way I'm going to a strange house, at night, during a thunderstorm." Piper said, frightened. "Well, would you rather be all alone and outside during a thunderstorm at night?" Prue asked, walking towards the house. "Prue, wait!" Piper hesitated. She didn't want to do either. "Okay." Prue said, turning around. She came and helped her sister up. "Whoa, I really don't want to see the size of the bump on my head." Piper said, holding her head in her hands again.
"Come on!" Prue said, leading her sister to the house on the hill.
;;;;;
As they got closer, the two could make out the house a lot better, especially when lightening struck. It was a four story, grey, victorian house. It didn't quite look like people lived there anymore. As they reached the front porch, Piper stopped and said "Okay, that's it. This is too creepy. I'm not going in." "Yes, you are." Prue said, grabbing on to her sister's shirt and pulling her up the steps. "Ready?" Prue asked when they reached the door. "No." Piper said, but the two headed in anyway.
Prue eased open the door with a 'creak'. It wasn't even locked. She walked slowly in, and Piper right after her. "Prue, are you sure about this?" Piper asked, looking around nervously. "We'll be dry, and you can lie down without getting muddy. Yes, I'm sure." Prue said confidently. "But are you sure -" "Piper." Prue said, silencing her. Piper's constant worrying was making her freak out too.
As they advanced through the house, it looked like it was just an abandoned house. There was no lighting, though, so they got it from the moon, stars, and lightening through the huge windows. Suddenly, Piper gave out a yelp and covered her mouth. Prue followed her gaze, and saw a decaying cat. "Ugh." Prue said, disgusted. She turned herself and Piper away from it, both completely grossed out.
But, when they turned around, there was a kitten there. "Oh, God, not another one!" Prue said, covering her eyes. Piper looked at the kitten and smiled. "No, Prue, it's not dead. It's just hungry." Piper said, picking up the small kitten. It fit in the palm of her hand. "Aw, aren't you the cutest little thing!" Piper cooed, rubbing the kittens back gently. "Oh, Piper, what are you doing? You don't know where that thing has been!" Prue said. "Aw, Prue, stop worrying. It's cute. Can we keep it?" Piper asked, turning sweetly to Prue. "What about its mommy?" Prue asked. "I think that was the cat back there." Piper said sadly. "But, can we keep the kitten?" Piper asked. Prue was about to refuse when she looked into Piper's puppy dog eyes. "Oh... who can say no to a look like that?" a defeated Prue said. "Yay!" Piper said, and went back to petting the little kitten. "But, you do know that you'll have to ask Grams, right?" Prue asked. Piper nodded her head.
"You know what little one? You need food." Piper said, pulling a granola bar out of her pocket with her freehand. Prue watched as Piper tore off a little piece and fed it to the cat. The kitten began taking little bites. "Aw! You like that? No chocolate bits for you, though." Piper squealed. "You know what? You also need a name. How about... Kit? Yeah, that would be a nice name for a kitten like yourself." Prue rolled her eyes. Even though she was sixteen, Piper could be so cute and sweet it was sickening.
"Come on, Miss Cutsie, you need to get to sleep. And so does the kitten." Prue said. Piper gave her a little glare, but continued pampering Kit. "Where are we going to sleep? I haven't noticed any beds." Piper said. "Well, we haven't looked on any of the other floors." Prue replied. "Yeah, but do you think it would be that smart to go up steps now? I mean, we don't know if one will give way under our weight or not. Or, the floors, for that matter." Piper pointed out practically. "You're right." Prue admitted after a moment. "I guess we'll have to sleep on two of the old couches or the floor." Prue said. "Oh, and now it's better than outside?" Piper asked. "Yes, it's much better than sleeping in the rain or mud. Now, bed!" Prue said, pointing to a nearby couch. "Fine." Piper said, and laid down on the couch. She put Kit right next to her, and Kit immediately curled up into a ball.
"'Night, you two." Prue said, laying down on the other couch. "'Night." Piper said. She then grabbed one of Kit's paws lightly, and waved it a little bit. "'Night." Piper said in a squeak. Prue smiled and closed her eyes. Her last thought was 'morning will be interesting.'
