T:T:T:T
Paige screamed as she went down, alerting the two kissing couples a little way down the hallway. "Paige." Prue and Phoebe whispered at the same time, both quickly pulling away from their boyfriends. They both ran like the wind towards the bathroom door, Andy and Billy right on their tails. When they reached the door, the two girls turned around to face the two boys. "Guys, it's a Ladies room." Prue stated. "Yeah, no boys allowed." Phoebe added. The two then quickly ran into the room.
As they entered the room, the two immediately noticed their two sisters on the floor. Piper was unconscious, and across Paige's back. Paige was lying on her stomach, boosting her head up a bit with her left arm and drumming her fingers on the floor, obviously bored. Paige, the petite ten-year-old that she was, could not lift or roll her deadweight sixteen-year-old sister off of her, so she had no choice but to wait.
Prue and Phoebe, noticing nothing but their two sisters on the floor, immediately ran over to the two. "What happened, Paige?" Prue asked, while Phoebe pulled out her smelling salts. Paige looked up at her oldest sister as if she were the stupidest three-year-old ever. "Have you not noticed the bathroom?" she asked exasperatedly, pointing her finger at the said area.
Both Prue and Phoebe, who was still working on Piper, followed the direction of their little sister's finger. They saw it. IT. That is basically all they would be able to describe IT as. What is IT? IT was blood. And guts. And skin. And bones. And hair. IT was a body. Well, not a body, a mess of body, that was strewn over the entire bathroom. The floor, the walls, the ceiling. Prue could make out part of an intestine on the wall.
"Oh my God." Phoebe whispered, while Prue just stared in shock. "Um... boys!" Prue called, still staring at the bathroom. She was immensely disgusted by the sight in front of her. But, she also had other emotions, like horror, and fear. Horror that someone would do something so cruel to another human being. Fear, fear of the horrible person that committed the act. She feared a person cruel enough, cold-hearted enough, to do such a thing.
Phoebe, meanwhile, was thoroughly disgusted, like her sister. But, she was also thinking. Thinking that this, this scene, was somehow connected to the murder the week before. She knew it was female. But who?"
And Paige, well, she was remembering her adoptive parents, and their deaths. Although they had not died this way, any death reminded her of them. She was feeling pain. Not only emotional, but physical as well. Her older sister was starting to really hurt on top of her. She hoped that Phoebe would wake Piper up soon, as she didn't feel like being pressed on the floor for any longer.
The boys ran in. They, like the two other girls, immediately notice Piper and Paige on the floor. "What happened?" Billy asked. Prue looked up at the two, and nodded her head slightly towards the bathroom. The boys looked up in unison, and gasped. Billy stepped back a bit, still staring at IT. "Holy crap." Andy said, his gaze glued to IT.
"Hey, guys!" Glenn said, as he and Leo came striding into the bathroom. "What are you doing in the girls' bathroom? Why are you in..." he caught sight of IT "...here?" He and Leo stared at it, just like their brothers. While all four were staring, Piper began to stir. 'Finally.' Paige thought with relief. Her sister was sure deep into that faint. "Ugh." Piper groaned, her eyes fluttering slowly open.
This caught the four boys' attention. "Piper!" Leo said, immediately kneeling down next to his girlfriend. He began stroking her hair. "Are you okay, honey?" he asked. Piper, who hadn't looked at the scene again, nodded. Then, she felt underneath her, and on Paige. "What's under me?" she asked, not remembering what had just happened. "Your little sister." Paige said, a bit angrily since Piper wasn't getting off of her. "Oh, God!" Piper said, and popped up quickly. "Oh, God, Paige, I'm SO sorry! I don't know what happened! Did I faint?" she asked, knowing that was the most logical answer. Her three sisters and Leo nodded. "Why did I?" she asked, turning her head. She was now facing the mess. Her eyes opened wide. She began to loose her balance, but Leo took hold of her and turned her around. "I think we'll leave, if that's okay with you, honey?" he asked Piper. She nodded, and the two headed out of the bathroom.
Now that Piper was up and out, the others could fully focus on the scene in front of them. Which, by the way, wasn't necessarily a good thing. It seemed as if the grossness of it had intensified since they had nothing else to worry about at the moment. "What are we gonna do?" Glenn asked, coming up next to the now-standing Paige. "I don't know." she answered. "Wait, um... cell phone! The police! I need a cell phone to call the police!" the quick-thinking Prue said. "Who has one of those?" Paige asked, her cell phone holder hanging on her belt loop, the cell phone showing clearly. "You do, genius." Phoebe said, grabbing the phone from Paige's pants.
"Phoebe..." Prue began scolding. "What?" Phoebe asked. "You and Paige have both called the police before. I want to do it." She dialed the three essential numbers: nine, one, and one. After a few rings, the operator picked up. "Hello?"
After a few minutes, Phoebe hung up. "They're on their way." she said. The others nodded. "Um... how about we go join the other two in the hall." Glenn said, glancing at the room again. "Why? You feeling squeamish?" Paige asked. "No!" Glenn yelled. "I just think that.... we should just go." He then ran out the door. The others looked at each other, and then walked out after him.
T:T:T
In the hall, Leo was still trying to calm Piper down. When Glenn ran out of the bathroom, it startled them. Piper jumped and put her hand over her heart. "God, Glenn, did you HAVE to do that?" she asked, her breath fastening. "Sorry, I just wanted to get out of their." Glenn said apologetically. The others then came out. "Ugh, I'm glad to be out of there too, Glenn." Billy said.
"Yeah, same here." Phoebe said. "But, you know what this reminds me of?" she asked. The others gave her blank looks. "CSI!" she yelled. "You're right." Piper said. The other six looked at her. "Since when did you watch CSI?" Paige asked. "Yeah, I mean, doesn't that have blood and stuff on it?" Prue asked. "Yeah, but I cover my eyes. Phoebe got me hooked on it. It's actually a very good show." Piper said. "Yeah, but how does this remind you of that show?" Glenn asked. "Well, they solve murders and stuff on the show." Phoebe said, shrugging. "Yeah, the investigators are very intelligent, and they are REALLY good at figuring out puzzles." Piper said.
"Like you?" Paige asked, smiling. "Yeah. I mean no! I'm not that good. Anyway, me figuring things out got me into trouble. If it weren't for the very smart Pheebs here, I wouldn't be here." Piper said, smiling at her older younger sister. "Yeah, but I wouldn't have been able to figure it out if Prue hadn't gotten herself almost kidnapped." Phoebe said, glancing at her oldest sister. "Yeah, well I wouldn't have been that if you and Paige here hadn't run off." Prue said, looking at the two youngest. "Well, we wouldn't have done that if it weren't for the whole me teasing Paige thing." Phoebe said. "And that wouldn't have happened if it weren't for me accidentally using banana skins as slippers." Paige said smiling.
"Okay, okay, we get it." Billy said. "You're a family full of geniuses." he added, rolling his eyes. The four girls responded by sticking their tongues out at him. All eight of them burst out laughing.
"Okay, okay!" Phoebe yelled, after a minute or so. "Now, there's something that bothers me. I think this is connected to the murder of Riley." This completely caught everyone else's attention. "What? Why?" Leo asked. "Well, think about it. That would be a body put on display in the school, just like the other murder was." Phoebe said. The others thought for a moment. "You know what? I think you're right." Andy said. "Me too." Prue added. "Okay, then, we have to find some way to figure it out." Phoebe said.
The others stared at her again. "Why do WE have to figure it out?" Paige asked. "Well, we don't have to, but we will. I mean, we are all smart, especially Piper." Phoebe said jokingly, nudging Piper in the side. "Yow!" Piper said, and rubbed her hurt side. "Oh, little girl, don't you think that I'm gonna figure everything out. That got me into trouble last time, remember?" "Yeah, yeah, we remember alright." Phoebe said, draping her arm around her older sister's shoulders. "But," she continued "that doesn't mean that we can't try to solve the puzzle." "And," Prue added, draping her arm around Piper's shoulders on the other side, "We don't want anyone else getting hurt, now do we?" "No, we don't." Paige answered, standing directly across from her three sisters.
"I know, it's just.." Piper said, her voice drifting off. "Just what?" Phoebe asked. "It's just... everything weird keeps happening to us. I mean, there was that whole thing with Mr. Connel, and then Prue and I found that old, creepy mansion thing, and now there seems to be a serial killer at our school. It's just... I would like to have a normal life." Piper said. "But how do you know that this isn't all just part of a normal life?" Paige asked. All three of her sisters looked at her like she was an idiot. "Do you really think that normal people deal with stalkers, find long-lost half-sisters, live with their grandmother, have a serial killer loose in their school, find a weird old house with secret passageways in it, and have them and their sisters date their next door neighbors, who happen to be brothers?" Prue asked.
"Well, if you put it that way, I admit, it is a little out of the ordinary." Paige said after a pause. "A little? Try a lot!" Piper said. "But, do you really think that you'd have a normal life anyway?" Phoebe asked. Piper looked at her with one eyebrow raised. "You know, with sisters like us?" Phoebe asked, indicating herself, Prue, and Paige. Piper paused for a pontificating moment, and then smiled widely. "I guess you're right. You guys are the weird ones." "Good." Prue said, nodding and smiling. Then, her face fell. "Wait a minute..." she said, turning to her eldest younger sister. "Hey!" Phoebe and Paige said. "Whoops." Piper said, smiling. She then pulled herself out of her sisters' grasp and ran to the safety of her boyfriend.
Piper ran up and grabbed onto Leo's arm, holding on as if for her life. "Hey, what's wrong?" he asked, looking down at her. He and his brothers had drifted off to the side during the sister moment, giving the girls space. Piper just looked in fake fear at her sisters. Leo looked up and saw playful glares on all three of their faces. "You little sneaker..." Prue said, as she, Phoebe, and Paige advanced on Piper and the confused boys. Just as her sisters were a few feet in front of her, Piper began to hear sirens. "Hey, the police are here!" she exclaimed. This distracted the three in front of her. "They are?" Paige asked. "Yeah, they are." Glenn said. He was looking out one of the exit doors. Everyone else could see blue and red lights outside. "You ready to talk to them, guys?" Andy asked, turning to the other seven. He got seven nods. "Okay, let's go." he said, and everyone headed out the door to greet the police.
