Chapter Seven.
"Trish sweetie…are you ok?" Prue asked as she walked back into the attic. Trish was sat on the sofa with the book on her lap.
"Yeah…I'm okies auntie Prue. Where'd ya go?" Trish asked looking at her aunt intently.
"I rang your mommy…and Auntie Paige. " Prue replied sitting down next to her niece.
"What about Aunt Phoebe?" Trish asked climbing onto Prue's lap. Prue looked away nervously.
"Erm…I don't think Aunt Phoebe should know about this one…ok sweetie?" Prue said wrapping her arms round her niece.
Trish looked at her aunt with curious eyes, but instead of enquiring why, she just nodded her head and layed back into Prue.
After a while, Trish and Prue started to fall asleep. Just then Piper and Paige orbed in.
"Prue?" Paige said gently waking her sister. "Sweetie, come on." Prue's eyes fluttered open as she was greeted by her sisters' concerned faces.
"He's back." She said sleepily. Piper bent down and picked Trish up from Prue's lap. As she did that Trish began to thrash about in her arms.
"Piper…?" Paige said looking at Trish with wide eyes.
Piper returned the stare as she tried to keep hold on her oldest daughter.
"Honey? Trish come on sweetie wake up its mommy." Piper tried to make Trish wake up but was failing miserably.
"NOOOOOO LET MY MOMMY GO YOU BATURD!" Trish yelled as her mom and aunts looked on in shock. "No! Stay away from her! Pleaaase"
"Prue? What do I do? Is she dreaming or what I don't know what to do." Piper said tearfully to her big sister.
Prue walked over and looked at Trish's flailing body. Suddenly she slapped Trish hard across the face. She continued doing it until Trish finally awoke with a start
"MOMMY!" She yelled and fought against the arms trying to restrain her.
"Shh sweetie it's me its mommy your ok." Piper tried desperately to calm her daughter down until she couldn't do it anymore. Trish was handed to Prue, who just wrapped her arms tightly around her niece.
Trish's eyes wandered round the room as realisation of where she was sunk in.
"Mommy?" she wiped away her tears. "he didn't hurt you?" She practically jumped from Prue to piper and held onto her mother like she would never let go.
As this continued no one noticed daylight stream into the attic and two figures walk in.
"What's going on?" The oldest asked, causing everyone's head to snap towards the door. To their relief they saw it was just Penny and Mel.
Prue looked at her daughter and smiled. Not wanting to worry the other girls she just kept smiling and telling them nothing was wrong.
Paige took the girls downstairs to get some breakfast leaving Prue and Piper alone.
"This is going to stop Prue." Piper said eyes blazing.
"Piper what can we do? He's in her head." Prue stated simply.
"Well then we'll go in and killed the son of a bitch." She said as she stormed off down the stairs. Leaving Prue alone.
