AN: Um, this is the last chapter. Sorry, but there WILL be a sequel! Don't worry. Also, I know this chapter really sucks, but I couldn't think of anything to write. LOOK AT THE BOTTOM FOR IMPORTANT INFORMATION!
charmed-greek - Me, run out of ideas? NEVER! I'm already having another fic in the works, along with the sequel to this and the ones I'm already posting. I could NEVER run out of ideas! Teehee, but all that is true. Your luck is turning! Yay! Thanks for your review!
naiya-isis - That's funny. Thanks!
charmedangel429 - It said she was pregnant? Where did it say that? I don't remember putting that she's pregnant... is she? I don't think so... Piper and Glenn are so screamy because MY worst fear is falling to my death, and I would be screamy! Thanks for your review!
winter blaze - Thanks, but it is the last chapter. Don't worry, there IS a sequel!
Gryffindor620 - The college idea is good, but that probably won't happen next fic. That's getting me thinking... Thanks for the review!
OTHCharmedFreak - Thanks, and I am happy that you like me being in your Inbox! Am I pretty?
CharmedMiliE - Enthusiastic, are we? Thanks!
lillynilly - Don't worry, I am. Thanks!
Now, the Xellent chapter 23, and last chapter...
T:T:T:T
In the pristine white hospital room, number 293, all that could be heard was a heart monitor and steady breathing. Correction: all that could be heard was three heart monitors and eight people steadily breathing. The rest was silence.
Prue, Piper, Phoebe, Paige, Andy, Leo, Billy, and Glenn were all in that hospital room together. There were three hospital beds in the room, and Piper, Paige, and Billy were lying in them. They were the only three with injuries serious enough for them to stay in the hospital overnight. Billy had a severe concussion, and had passed out again right after telling the others about Piper and Glenn being alive. Piper had two dislocated shoulders, a few broken metacarpals, rope burns on her hand, and a few broken ribs from where Mr. Connel had kicked her. Paige, of course, had her bullet wound. Phoebe and Leo were sitting on Piper's bed, Andy and Glenn on Billy's, and Prue on Paige's.
"Why are we being so quiet?" Glenn asked his friends. "I don't know." Paige said. "I do. We're pondering what our existence is going to be like without having to look over our shoulders. We are pontificating whether or not we will actually enjoy the lazy lifestyle of not having to fight for our lives more than most people ever do in the passing of a few short months. We are wondering..." "Okay, Billy, we get the point." Phoebe said irritably.
"What I don't get is why we have to be in the hospital in the first place." Piper said. "I don't like hospitals. And, I've spent WAY too much time in them." "Yeah, you have, but the cause has been removed, finally." Prue said. She had felt like a huge weight had been lifted off of her shoulders when the death of Mr. Connel had been confirmed. "Yeah, and we'll be released tomorrow... um, today, I guess." Paige pointed out. "And, there is one positive experience out of this."
The others turned and stared at her. "What is that?" Phoebe asked. "Now, Piper isn't the only one who can complain about being shot." Paige answered, a mischevious twinkle in her eyes. "Oh, I beg to differ!" Piper said. "First of all, you were only shot once. Second, it wasn't even that life-
threatening! I mean, it was far away from any vital organs."
Glenn did a double take on that one. "Wait, is it just me, or are you BRAGGING about being shot?" he asked. Piper reached over and smacked him with her good hand. "Oh, I am SO not! I'm just proving a point!" she defended. "Yeah." Leo said, hugging Piper. "And, she won't get shot ever, ever, ever, ever, ever again, will you?" he asked. "I don't want to, but with our luck, I might." Piper said.
"But, the thing that has caused all this bad luck is gone." Andy said. "Yes, THANK GOD." Prue said. The others looked at her. "What?" she asked. "This is all kind of MY fault, so I'm happy that it's over." All three of her sisters rolled their eyes. "Prue, how many times do we have to tell you that it's NOT YOUR FAULT?" Paige asked. "Yeah, how could it be when it wasn't your hand that did any of this?" Phoebe asked. Prue opened her mouth to speak, but Piper cut her off. "And NO, it was not you that drove HIM to do all this. YOU had nothing to do with it, it was just his insane mind at work. I mean, in the end, he did try to kill you didn't he?"
"Yeah, I guess you're right." Prue admitted. "They ARE right." Andy said. "Yeah. I mean, when has Piper not been right?" Glenn asked. "Shut up." Piper said. "NO!" Glenn said, and playfully threw a pillow at her. It hit her smack dab in the middle of the face and exploded. "See, that's just my luck!" Piper said, getting some of the feathers out of her hair. "Honey," Leo said. "It's not your luck that did this, it was just Glenn's skillful arm." He glared daggers at his youngest brother. "Sorry, but it did prove your point, didn't it? Halliwell luck has nothing to do with this!" Glenn said.
"But, you have to admit, Halliwell luck is pretty bad." Phoebe said. "Yeah, it is." Billy agreed jokingly. Everyone burst out laughing. They did not just from the joke, but from the fact that their lives would finally be somewhat normal, or at least as normal as they could be under the circumstances.
Or will they?
T:T:T:T
AN: I warned you that this was short! Anyway, THIS IS IMPORTANT INFORMATION/POLL ABOUT THE SEQUEL:
Do you think that the girls should get their powers?
YES or NO
Please, please, please send me your preference in your review!!! I have both possibilities planned out, although the magical one a little more than the other. Also, just to let you know, if there is magic, then it will only be a major factor in the fic that they received their powers, and not the others, as Grams would still handle the demon fighting. Please send me a review telling me what you want! This is after a song by Creed!
