It's nice to see I have a few more readers, and that you guys like it, and thanks alot for reviewing. Geese stripy aren't you nice. Complaining about cliffhangers when you get to hear about the chapter before I make them? Lol. Didn't know who you were at first, but know I do. Sorry to others for the cliffhangers, but I don't even I notice I do it until after I post it. Some Prue and Andy fans may not like the next few chapters a lot, but don't worry I would never have Prue and Andy apart for long.
Manor
"Andy. What do you mean?" Prue said as she got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around her.
"You know exactly what I mean Prue." Andy said as he also got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around himself. "I can't be in a relationship where I have to worry about the woman I love being killed all the time. It's bad enough they worry about that with me being a cop."
"Andy even if I were to stop being a witch, they would still try to kill us because we would still be the Charmed ones." Tears began to fall freely down her cheeks. "I can't change my destiny Andy."
"Destiny! What destiny, to die Prue?" He held his hand out to comfort her as instinct, but quickly pulled away remembering they were in a fight. "Don't you realise that's all that will eventually happen to you. It happened to your Mom, and look how many times it has almost happened to you." He stopped as he suddenly realised what he had just said, and immediately regretted it.
"How dare you. How dare you bring my mother's situation into this." She hated his argument, but knew deep inside that he was right; she had been thinking the same thing, but there was still no excuse for what he said. "Look Andy maybe you should just leave."
"Prue, I'm so sorry." He slowly walked over to her in hope to wrap his arms around her, and make all the pain he had just caused to go away.
"Just leave." Prue said as she pulled away and handed him his clothes.
"Prue." Andy said as tears formed in his eyes.
"Leave Andy!" She screamed closing her eyes as he kissed her forehead and left the room. She left them closed until she heard the front door close a few moments later.
Prue then pulled her housecoat off the door, and made her way to her bedroom.
"Prue, what just happened?" Phoebe asked as she entered the hallways wearing her pyjamas. Prue and Andy's screaming woke her up.
"It's nothing Phoebes, just go back to bed." She answered back quickly turning into her room.
"Didn't sound like nothing to me." Phoebe muttered as she walked over to Prue's room and knocked on the door. "Prue, honey tell me what's going on."
"Nothing's going on Phoebe, just please leave me alone for now." Prue said from inside her bed, she didn't want her sister to see her crying over something stupid like a fight.
"Look Prue I won't just leave you now. I know you and Andy had a fight." Phoebe wouldn't let this one go. "Just let me help you." As she said these words a man identical to Keith blinked behind her holding the same athame they had been too familiar with the past few days. "Ah!" She managed to scream before he stabbed her in the stomach.
"Phoebe?" Prue said with worry as she heard a slight scream of pain and fear. "Phoebes?" All of a sudden there was a loud thud, which was the sound of her falling to the ground. Prue immediately ran towards the door.
"No! Prue stay away!" Phoebe screamed in terror as the warlock identical to the one they had just killed a few days before stood in front of the door, prepared to stab Prue when she opened the door. But it was too late; Prue was too concerned to listen to her. Phoebe watched as Prue opened the door, and the warlock pulled out the athame and stabbed Prue in the stomach as well. The expression on Prue's face went from worry, the pain and shock as she grabbed onto the doorway trying to keep herself from falling to the ground.
With the fling of her hand she sent as many things as she could at him until he was knocked unconscious. Then fell to the ground beside Phoebe, still clutching her stomach. As hard as she tried to keep her eyes open, her world was suddenly turned black, yet again.
Andy felt horrible for what he said and decided to go back to the manor, even though she told him not to. He couldn't forget how hurt she looked, and couldn't stand that he had done that to her.
He walked through the foyer and ran up the stairs wondering what to say to make her feel better, and forgive him for what he said. As he reached the top of the stairs his heart stopped. He saw Prue and Phoebe lying on the floor with blood everywhere. He quickly pulled his cell phone out of the inside of his jacket.
"This is Inspector Trudeau, I need an ambulance at 1329 Prescott St. There are two critically wounded." He shut the phone, and knelt down beside Prue and Phoebe, frantically trying to find their pulses. A wave of relief came when there were two light pulses. He then ran to the linen closet and placed towels on their wounds.
"Just a little longer Prue, please just hold on a little longer." He sighed as tears filled his eyes. Not being able to believe it was happening again, and it was his fault for leaving her. The sound of sirens coming closer made him feel slightly relieved.
Hospital
Phoebe and Prue were fine but still unconscious lying in beds next to each other. Although they had surgery to heal all of the internal wounds. Piper and Andy were sitting in the uncomfortable chairs that were inside the hospital room Prue and Phoebe were sharing.
Prue woke up to the muffled voices of Andy and Piper. They were in a deep conversation about the mysterious man who was now in police custody.
"Look Andy, you can't arrest him. We need to vanquish him, again." She then stroked her hand through her hair feeling very stressed. "Plus he's a warlock which we thought we had vanquished. So number one, he's immortal, and number two he can blink."
"Yes but Piper he needs to suffer in jail."
"Yes but won't they get kind of suspicious when he never ages?" Piper said in her smart-ass attitude.
"Yes but I thought we'd worry about that some other time."
"Piper…" Prue said as she sat up quickly in her bed, realising that she was in a hospital. But quickly regretted getting up so quickly when a sharp pain ran through her abdomen.
"Prue, you're awake." Piper said as she quickly ran over and hugged her sister.
"What happened?" Prue asked curiously. Then suddenly remembered Phoebe being stabbed, "And where's Phoebe."
"I was at Dan's and I heard sirens. And then there were ambulances and cop cars in our driveway. And…and. Then I went with Andy to the hospital, and you went into surgery." She was suddenly stopped by Prue quickly placing her hands on top of her shoulders.
"Piper, stop. Now where is Phoebe?" Prue was beginning to panic, fearing for the worst. But Andy came to the rescue by pulling the curtain that separated their beds, revealing an unconscious Phoebe. "Thank God."
"No kidding." Piper said as she rest her head on Prue's shoulder. Just as the two sisters shared a moment the man identical to Keith blinked in.
"Sorry to spoil your cute little moment. But we have business to discuss." Andy quickly stood in front of Prue and Piper to protect them.
"Oh don't worry, I'm not going to even try to kill them now." He smirked. "Revenge isn't as much fun, when there isn't a fight."
"Revenge? For what?" Prue asked getting her hand ready to send him flying.
"For my brother." He answered back. "My name is Rowland, the man you know as Keith was my twin brother. You were lucky with him, but I am much more powerful then him."
"Wait a minute, who names one twin Keith and the other Rowland?" Piper asked with a grin.
"My mother was a mortal, her father's name was Keith. Now I would appreciate it if you would stop making fun of my family's choice of names."
"Oh sure whatever. So we killed your brother and you want revenge?" Prue asked.
"Yes I want revenge. But not just for my brother." A huge grin then covered his face. "All evil wants revenge for what you did to Tempus."
"So that's why we've been almost killed so many times lately."
"Yes of course, but the reason why the oldest here is always the first target is because she is the strongest. Just like me." He then gave an evil glare towards Prue, causing her to turn her head in disgust.
"Well I'm so glad I could come to talk to now. While two of you are injured, you can't hurt me at the moment."
"But we will." Prue said as she began to pull herself up further on the bed, to make herself look less vulnerable.
"No, you will try. When I come back in a few months for a fair fight, for my revenge." He then blinked away leaving them with his words.
"Well I guess we can thank him for warning us?" Piper said as she turned and began to leave the room.
"Umm Piper where are you going?" Prue asked.
"To get the doctor, to tell him you're awake." This was her excuse, but she really wanted to give Andy and Prue time to talk. She then carefully and quietly shut the door going into the hallway.
"Look Prue, I'm so sorry for what I said earlier." He slowly approached her bed and took her hand. But she quickly pulled it away.
"No Andy you're right." Prue said as fresh tears entered her eyes. "You deserve to be in a relationship where you don't have to worry about demons and warlocks. And I can't promise you that I won't get hurt, because I will get hurt if it means that my sisters don't have to. I have to protect them."
"And who is supposed to protect you Prue?"
"No one, I don't need protecting."
"Wrong, I'm supposed to protect you, and I did last night. I want to be with you. To protect you." He then ran his fingers slowly along her cheek.
"You can't protect me. Everyone who tries to protect me will just get hurt." Tears filled her eyes as she grabbed Andy's hand. "You need to leave before you get hurt too. I already hurt Phoebe because the demon wanted to kill me."
"That's not your fault Prue! He would have killed them right after he killed you."
"Maybe not… And I don't care Andy, your words earlier made me realise that you don't deserve this. I can't change my destiny but you can.
"My destiny is to be with you Prue."
"No Prue, what I said earlier was a mistake."
"No Andy, the only mistake you made was staying around when you found out that I was a witch. Just please leave before you get hurt again." Tears were streaming down her face, but she had to stay strong.
"Prue." Andy's eyes were full of tears. He knew there was no point in fighting the matter at this time and decided to give up for now. He kissed her tenderly for what could be the last time and left the room with tears streaming down his face.

This chapter wasn't one of my best, I wasn't sure how to make the chapter not completely about the fight, so I brought in a bit of a piece of the future. Sorry if you don't like it.
