Hey, thanks for the reviews, charmed4eva1990, and PrUe AnD AnDy!. I know I keep taking a long time, but I've already started the next chapter. I may even finish it tomorrow of my computer decides to cooperate, and not screw up. Hmm I don't seem to be getting as many reviews, are people still reading? I know the past few chapters have been dealing a lot with Darien, but that leads to something in the future plot. Well thanks to those who are, hope you like the next few, although this one is still building up to something big.

Police Station

"Hey Andy…" Prue greeted as she walked over to his crowded desk.

"Prue, nice to see you." He said as he stood up to greet her by pulling her into a tight embrace.

"Nice to see you too." She smiled pulling away and sitting in the chair on the opposite side of the desk.

"So what brings you here?" Andy questioned, she usually only came to visit him at work for a cover-up or to warn him about a new danger.

"Well Phoebe had class and Piper's at P3. So since the Manor was a little lonely, I came to visit you." She said, hoping he wouldn't catch on anytime soon.

"Well I love that you came, but I'm just really busy right now with Darien's case." He answered, eying Prue, unsure how she would react to the mention of his name.

"Okay, well I guess I should let you be then," she said getting up from the chair, as he did as well, to see her off. "If Piper or Phoebe ask where I am tonight, can you cover for me?"

"Why do you need covering?" Andy asked with worry as he approached her.

"Well they've hardly let me have time to think to myself after Darien." She began, "I mean, when they're not at home, they're calling constantly to check up on me."

"If all you need is a few hours of alone time off the face of the Earth, I can give you that as well." Andy responded, with his large grin spread across his face.

"As much as I'd love to, maybe another time." She answered as she faked a smile, and pressed her hips into his. Trying to ensure he doesn't see through what she is really planning.

"Okay, I won't push it." He answered at he kept his hands pinned at her sides, never wanting to let go. But he's holding back from telling her exactly what he really feels. All the pain from Darien still lurks in his soul, tearing at his heart every moment of the day.

Underground Alcatraz

Prue's astral form wandered around the hidden hideout, remembering the short-lived memories of her son. Tears began to shed freely as she sat alone in the dark room. The pain was unbearable, and she couldn't take it. Holding it in was so hard, but letting it out was even harder.

She sat there for several minutes, just letting it all out. It was then that she heard the she heard a piercing, ear-shattering scream that grew louder by the second. The glass cover of her watch shattered, as it grew so loud she felt as if her ears would shatter right then and there.

A woman dressed in grey suddenly burst through the door, as she stood in front of a shocked Prue, howling with all her might. Once the screeching became unbearable, Prue astral projected back to where her body lay in the Manor.

Unsure of what she had just witnessed, she ran to the phone and called Piper and Phoebe warning them, and telling them to come home before it could attack them as well. She hoped this could help distract them long enough, while she went through with her plan.

An hour or so later Piper and Phoebe arrived at the Manor full of panic as they ran upstairs to see what they were about to face.

"Prue!" Phoebe called out, to find her location in the large house.

"Attic!" Prue yelled back as she stared at the information on the page.

"Did you find anything?" Piper asked as she walked over to Prue and looked at the Book as well.

"Yeah, it says what attacked me was a Banshee. And that they hunt their victims with a high pitched call, and zeroes in on them by hearing their inner cry of pain." Prue informed as she pointed her index finger to the picture, and information.

"Sounds horrible, good thing you were in astral form." Piper said as she rested her head on Prue's shoulder for comfort. Finding it hard since this was one of the first threatening demons since Darien's death, she was glad Prue's fate wasn't the same today.

"Okay, so let's go kill this demon and get on with our lives." Phoebe said as began to walk out the door.

"Okay, but I'm going to split, just to warn Andy." Prue sighed as she followed close behind.

"Split up! Are you nuts?" Piper scolded.

"Well if I call him, he'll want to come here right away, but if I go to him, he'll know we're fine."

"Fine." Piper said, still unsure if it was a good idea.

"I'll be fine." Prue said convincingly as she took Piper's face in her hands. "I promise." She then placed a kiss on her forehead before walking out the attic door.

"I think we need Leo help on this one." Phoebe stated as she smiled over at Piper, seeing the smile on her face when he was mentioned.

"Leo!" Piper screamed as his bright lights circled around her, before his figure appeared to her side. "Hi honey."

"Hi." He replied, planting a quick kiss on her lips before getting back to business.

"So… Leo, we need to know what you know on Banshee's. Prue was attacked by one earlier." Phoebe stated, trying to stop the awkward moment for her.

"Prue was attacked by a Banshee! Are you sure she's alright?" Leo began to panic, knowing very well what happened to witches when attacked by a Banshee.

"Yes Leo, she's fine. Why are you making such a big deal?" Piper asked, curious as to why he reacted that way.

"When witches hear a Banshee's call, they don't die, they turn into Banshees." Leo informed, watching their faces begin to fill with worry.

"Well she was in astral form, so it didn't affect her." Piper said, trying to convince herself as well.

"Okay, good. She wouldn't have been affected then." Leo smiled, glad there wouldn't be as much to fix. "But keep an eye on everyone. We're all vulnerable at a time like this, we still feel the pain."

He couldn't help but notice Piper's glance towards Phoebe, who looked content with everything.

At that moment, the house began to slowly shake harder and harder, as shrieks became louder and louder. It started off with the glass on Leo's watch, then all the windows in the attic shattered, causing everyone to block his or her eyes for protection.

"Piper!" Phoebe screamed, listening to see if her sister was okay, since at the moment she couldn't open her eyes with all the flying glass.

"Don't worry Phoebe!" Piper yelled back, as she felt Leo surround his body around her to shield her body from the glass. After several seconds of this torture passed, she could hear the Banshee's scream only a few feet away, mixed in with Phoebe's screams of terror.

She pushed away from Leo to see the Banshee standing over Phoebe, screaming away.

"Leave her alone!" Piper screamed as she ran and pushed the Banshee to the ground as Leo helped Phoebe up off the ground. The Banshee looked at Piper, but pushed her away and glanced back to Phoebe.

Leo noticed Phoebe was the one she was zeroing in on, and immediately stood in front of her for protection. This didn't hold her off for long; she simply tossed Leo aside, and began screeching at Phoebe again.

"Piper, freeze her or something!" Phoebe yelled, as she placed her hands over her ears in hopes it could help.

Just as Piper was about to flick her wrists, the Banshee ran out of one of the broken windows.

"Are you okay?" Piper asked as she walked over to Phoebe, who was slightly trembling.

"Yeah I'm fine." She answered. Piper exchanged a look to Leo, knowing he was wondering the same thing.

"Uh... Phoebes, why did the Banshee go after you, when I attacked her, and I'm also in a lot of pain like Prue and Andy.

Phoebe stayed quiet for several moments before she decided to give in. "Because I miss Darien. I loved him. And I also feel horrible that I don't trust my own blood, and that it's partially my fault he ended up where he did." A tear left her eye, but she quickly brushed it away before it was noticed.

"Oh, honey." Was all Piper said as she pulled Phoebe into a tight hug. Glad to see she did care. "I was worried about you."

"Hello!" Andy called as he entered the Manor.

"What's he doing here?" Piper asked rhetorically.

"Uh oh…" Phoebe said as they ran downstairs to speak with Andy.

Police Station

"Hey Darryl, is Andy here?" Prue asked, gazing over at Andy's now empty desk.

"No he left for your house when we got a call about your windows breaking." Darryl said as he moved in closer to Prue. "A 'freaky' thing I'm guessing?"

"Probably. Sorry, I gotta go!" Prue said as she rushed out of the station towards the parking lot. As she ran towards her car, she pulled out her cell phone to call her sisters. The panic she felt to make sure they were okay made it harder to find the phone, and push the buttons, but soon it was ringing.

"Hello." Piper greeted as she picked up the phone.

"Piper, thank God. Are you guys okay?" Prue asked as her stress level dropped.

"We're fine, but the banshee attacked." Piper informed as she mouthed Prue's name to the rest of the group.

"You sure?" Prue asked.

"Yes, Andy's here too. He wants to talk to you." Piper said as she handed Andy the phone.

"Hey." Andy greeted as Prue calmed down just from hearing his voice.

"Andy, is everyone okay?" Prue asked yet again, not believing just one.

"We're all fine." Andy encouraged.

"Good." Prue said as the ground began to tremble, as the Banshee's cry cam yet again. As it got louder, car windows shattered all around her, as she dropped to the ground for cover.

"Prue!" Andy screamed into the phone, hearing the breaking glass and shrieking.

"What's going on?" Piper asked frantically as she moved closer to the phone. It was then she heard the noises he heard. "Banshee."

"What?" Andy said, completely confused.

"Prue's being attacked, we need to get to her quickly." Piper then turned to Leo, eyes pleading for a cosmic taxi ride.

"Well let's go then." He smiled, making sure everyone was touching before orbing away.
