Author's Notes: Thanks to everyone that reviewed! Oh and to answer a question, will Prue meet up with her sisters? Hmm…you'll just have to keep reading on to see what happens ;-)
"Okay so tell me something. What are you a witch or…" Prue questioned as she trailed off once Evangeline began to speak.
"I'm a witch. My best friend Rain and I have our own coven. You are or once were a Charmed One, am I right?" Evangeline asked as she turned the car in another direction.
"Yes, in a former life I was. You see I'm dead." Prue said shocking the girl as Evangeline took her eyes from off the road and stared at Prue. Nearly getting into a car collision, Evangeline made a sharp swerve and continued on the path.
"So are you telling me that you're a spook? You're the living dead? Look I'm not working with any zombie demons here." Evangeline spoke out with her eyes wide in fright at Prue.
"No, I am purely witch. I was resurrected by the Angel of Destiny." Prue said rolling her eyes and watching Evangeline as the girl continued on driving.
"My friend knew you were coming, though. That's her gift." Evangeline said with a smile at Prue. Confused, Prue looked back at her.
"What is her gift?" Prue asked.
"She has the sight. She can see things before they occur." Evangeline spoke.
"My sister Phoebe has that power too. She has premonitions." Prue explained.
"I know. Rain and I know a lot about the Charmed Ones of San Francisco. The whole magical world knows about you. That's why we've decided to take you in." Evangeline answered as she parked at a spot in front of a rather large house. Still sitting in the car she and Prue stared at one another.
"My sisters are off somewhere, and the Angel told me that I had some good to do here in Los Angeles. I have no where to go." Prue told her. Evangeline put one small hand upon Prue's shoulder and looked at her.
"Of course you can stay with us. That's the whole reason why we sought you and tried to scry for you. Rain knew that our third was coming and once I saw you fighting the demon, I knew you were destined to be part of our coven." Evangeline said.
"But my sisters, how can I abandon the bond I had with them? Not only as family but as Charmed witches." Prue asked sighing after finishing her statement.
"You're not abandoning them Prue. They have children and they are preparing them for the future evils. But now, as the Angel told you, you are needed to fight the evil here in the present. We're trying to do the same thing. So join us, stay a spell." Evangeline offered with another beaming smile as she step from out of the car.
"Destiny….." Prue muttered as she just got out of the car and headed for the house with Evangeline. Opening the door to the house, Evangeline and Prue stepped in. The house had an aroma of strawberry scented spray with a mix of what smelled like floral scents also. The foyer was big open space and a staircase stood at the center. Walking into the left side of the room, it led to the living room. As Prue moved there with Evangeline she spotted that the right side led to a dining room and kitchen. Past the staircase at the end was the spacious backyard.
"Rain's not in here. That's weird." Evangeline said turning on the ceiling lights. Prue noticed that the living room resembled that of the manor, or at least the last time she remembered it.
"How's that weird?" Prue asked.
"It's Sunday afternoon, she usually is off looking at her week's worth of General Hospital episodes in here. We got TiVo you know." Evangeline said.
"Really? Cool. But what's TiVo? You know, I've been dead since 2001." Prue said looking at a laughing Evangeline. However, all the laughter stopped once a scream rang out a loud crash was heard. Evangeline looked at Prue, and the two witches both yelled out, "Rain!"
Running up the stairs quickly and valiantly, they were both in time to catch a red headed woman from falling downward. Her eyes an emerald color of green and her face light but not too pale, the girl got up on her feet and then looked at Prue with a smile amidst the terror she had just moments ago.
"I presume you're Rain?" Prue asked the girl who shook her head yes.
"Prue! Prue, you're really here! You…AH! Watch out!" Rain yelled. All three turning around, they watched as an energy ball darted straight for them. Surprising to Prue, Rain held out her hand and ricocheted the energy ball back to the launcher by creating a shield with her mystical powers.
"She can make shields too." Evangeline whispered to Prue.
"I would not have known." Prue whispered back as Rain stopped.
The demon made himself known as he stomped over to them as they ran down the stairs. A terrible brute, it had the regular leather clothes but this one was muscled and had bushy hair, and was also very tall. What made it worse was that he was not alone. A girl came from behind him in a black dress with combat boots and swaying blonde hair.
"Got any ideas, Vange?" Rain questioned looking at her friend.
"Yeah, we fight!" Evangeline said as she lunged for the female demon. Running up to her, Evangeline used her body to press against the demon woman and made the girl crash into a coffee table. Both getting up, Evangeline and the girl began to do battle. Blocking a punch combination from the demon, Evangeline landed a sharp spin kick of her own, knocking the girl off balance. Next came an elbow smash and then a harsh punch into the demon's face. Green blood began to ooze and some fell into Evangeline's braids.
"Dammit! Do you know how hard it is to get demon blood from your braids?" Evangeline cursed as the demon girl smirked and landed a blue energy ball into the air launching for her. With agility and skill, Evangeline jumped out of the way from the energy ball, and looked at the demon. Suddenly, her eyes zoned in on the demon and she shot out a purple wave of energy that attacked it, making her shake and shake until the demon was vanquished.
On the other side, Prue was busy fighting with the brute demon as Rain was convalescing from an attack. Punching the brute repeatedly in his face, as he smiled at her assortment of attacks, the demon took Prue by her throat and threw her into a wall. Prue reeling from the attack, Rain took over and threw a vial of binding potion at him.
"There you go! His attack should be downgraded now. I hit him with a binding potion!" Rain yelled. Feeling lucky, she went to go kick the brute demon but he took her and deeply punched her making her fall back onto the floor. Prue however, astral projected and faced the demon.
"A Charmed One! But you were dead!" the brute finally realized looking at Prue.
"Yeah, well I'm back!" Prue said as she used her power to throw the demon backwards. Evangeline came over and once again shot another purple wave of energy at the brute demon vanquishing him too. The dust settled, Prue, Rain and Evangeline came together at the foyer and looked at one another.
"Okay what do you call that? What you just did?" Prue asked Evangeline.
"Well I have psychic powers. I can also use it as energy to shock demons." Evangeline explained.
"Prue, you're here! I saw you in one of my visions! You're our third!" Rain said happily and hugging Prue.
"I know this is not what you may be accustomed to, but trust me, you're amongst friends." Rain said solemnly as she still held onto the girl. Joining in on this was also Evangeline.
"Yeah you're one of us now, Charmed One." Evangeline said adding in. For once in her short time back on Earth, Prue exhaled deeply and smiled. In mere time she was taken from the depths of paradise and back onto the world where she has not been in four years.
"This may sound strange, but I like this place already." Prue said as the girls let go.
"Really, how so?" Rain asked putting a hand through Prue's brown hair.
"The demon run-ins, the fights, you guys…for once in some time I actually feel at home." Prue said genuinely as she was graced with smiles from the new girls in her coven; her new sisters.
"Mother you do not know how happy I am that Prue actually settled into her new life." Patty said hugging her mother, wiping away tears from her eyes.
"What can I say Patty, the afterlife does have its advantages." Penny said with her sassy smile gracing her daughters'.
"Not all the time, Halliwells. Not all the time." A voice suddenly called out as Penny and Patty turned around to face the source of the voice. The man coming out had gray hair, and for a supposed older man, he was very handsome but he still had an eerie presence to him. Clad in dark leather he came over to the Halliwells, but they just had looks of disgust but shock also.
"And the saints keep on marching in, what do you want Angel of Death?" Penny questioned with sarcasm as Death came nearer.
"As if he didn't take everything away from us already…" Patty said with disgust as she looked at Death.
"I'll disregard your stares for a second, Patricia. More pressing matters are at hand." Death said as he began to explain. "Though your Charmed daughters have escaped death, Prue is still at risk."
"What do you mean?" Penny asked concerned now.
"When Destiny resurrected her, he should've known that a price would have to be paid. Once someone from your line of witches comes back from the dead, without my knowledge; I have the right to bring them back. Whether you like it or not." Death said rather sternly as Penny and Patricia looked at him.
"The audacity of you! Evil and the demon underworld still are at work! Without Paige, Phoebe and Piper to fight, the world is powerless! No Power of Three, no power for the world! Prue was our last hope!" Patty yelled out at Death. All the animosity she felt for Death was leaking out and she had her fiery eyes placed right on him.
"I don't care. Prue will have to prove herself should she want to remain amongst the land of the living. She'll also have to pay for your daughters' previous escapes from deaths too. My Hellions are on the prowl and if she wants to live, she and her coven will have no choice but to vanquish them. But I doubt she will survive." Death said with a glare.
"You are a real bastard, you know?" Penny said with seriousness as she looked at Death with hatred boiling up inside.
"I am not anything you proclaim that I am. I am solely the very essence of Death." The Angel of Death said not smirking or smiling but just glaring. And with that said, he vanished from sight leaving Penny and Patty on their lonesome.
