Since I updated sooner than I usually do I think I deserve more reviews, just kidding (but it would be nice). Thank you to all who reviewed and I totally forgot about a disclaimer so I'm just saying I don't own anything.

Chapter 8: Losing Prue

THE NEXT DAY

Prue sat in a chair by the window in her room. The curtains were closed and the room was dark. She hadn't cried, or spoken, or even eaten. She sat there staring at the wall. She played with the ring Andy had given her when they were fourteen. She stared at the wall hoping to fall asleep in hopes he'd be in her dreams again.

"Prue, you haven't even touched the sandwich I made you" Piper said.

Prue didn't even glance at her sister.

"You can't do this to yourself" Piper said. "He wouldn't want you to"

Piper stood there for a few minutes not getting a response.

"I'm going to make you another sandwich" Piper said. "Please eat it"

Piper took the plate with the uneaten sandwich on it downstairs. Prue never even acknowledged Piper leaving or entering the room. Someone put their hand over Prue's mouth.

"Don't scream or you'll die" a demon said.

He shimmered Prue into the underworld.

"Now, we can do this the easy way, or the hard way" Jareb said. "Where's your baby?"

Prue didn't acknowledge Jareb.

"I asked you a question!" Jareb exclaimed.

He hit Prue across the face.

"I'm going to keep doing this until you tell me where the baby is" Jareb said.

He grabbed Prue's neck and lifted her off the ground.

"It would be much easier to break your neck then to keep asking you these questions" Jareb said. "Answer me"

He threw her into the wall and everything went black.

AT THE MANOR

Piper came back into her sister's room with another sandwich.

"Prue" Piper called.

There was no response. Piper went downstairs.

"Have you seen Prue?" Piper asked Phoebe.

"Last I knew she was still in her room" Phoebe said. "What's wrong?"

"She's not there" Piper said.

"Maybe she went to the bathroom" Phoebe said.

Piper shook her head.

"No, I checked" Piper said. "Leo"

Leo orbed into the room.

"What's wrong?" Leo asked.

"Prue's missing" Piper said. "Can you sense her?"

Leo closed his eyes for a second. When he opened them he got a worried look on his face.

"I can't sense her" Leo said.

"Damn it!" Piper exclaimed. "I knew something like this was going to happen!"

"I think we're going to need the Book of Shadows" Phoebe said heading for the attic.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

Prue regained consciousness but didn't open her eyes because of the throbbing pain in her head. She almost opened her eyes when heard two men talking.

"She's not saying anything" Jareb said.

"Try harder" a man said.

"There only so much more I can do before it would kill her" Jareb said.

"If she doesn't tell where her baby is in the next twenty four hours then you can kill her" the man said. "It's as simple as that"

"But then how will you get the information?" Jareb asked.

"I have my ways" the man said.

As soon as she was sure the man was gone she opened her eyes. She noticed the magical rope that was tying her to the wall.

"Well, well, you're awake" Jareb said. "Ready to tell me where the baby is?"

Prue glared at him.

"You know, it's a shame that I have to kill such a beautiful thing like you" Jareb said taking his hand and placing it on Prue's cheek.

He took his long fingernail and cut the side of Prue's face.

"I don't even know why I bother with you" Jareb said. "You're obviously too stupid to answer me"

He formed a small fireball in his hand.

"I guess I'm just going to have some fun with you" he said smiling. "This won't kill you so don't worry…yet"

He threw the fireball at Prue and she screamed in pain.

"So you can make a noise" Jareb said. "I was beginning to wonder"

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

12 HOURS LATER

"Are you always this stubborn?" Jareb asked as Prue screamed in pain. "Don't you get it…just tell me where the baby is and you can go"

Prue stayed quiet.

"You know what, this is getting me no where" he said. "Darius, come in here"

A large demon entered the room.

"You break human's bones fairly easily, right?" Jareb asked.

The demon nodded.

"See if you can get this bitch to tell you where she hid her baby" Jareb said. "I have to go do something"

The demon nodded and Jareb walked out of the room.

000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000

AT THE MANOR

"So we have it narrowed down to this one spot" Piper said. "And we think the demon's name is Jareb. Leo, you're going to orb us down there and we're going to vanquish this son of bitch's ass"

"Piper, what if she's…"

"Don't even think it" Piper said cutting Phoebe off.

"She's been gone for over fourteen hours" Phoebe said. "We don't know what he's done to her"

"Which is exactly why we're going to vanquish him" Piper said. "Now Leo, let's go"

Leo orbed Piper and Phoebe into the underworld. They saw Prue bound to a wall. Blood and bruises covered her body.

"See Prue, I knew they'd come for you" Jareb said coming up behind them.

He sent Leo and Phoebe flying and quickly put a knife up to Piper's throat.

"You were willing to give up your own life to save your child's but are you really going to be willing to give up your sister's?" Jareb asked.

Prue weakly lifted her head up and looked at Piper. Piper saw the hopelessness, fear, and sadness in them.

"Leave her alone" Prue said weakly. "I don't know where my baby is"

"I don't believe you" Jareb said. "Why would you let me torture you all of this time if you didn't know where the baby is?"

"And why would I lie when you have a knife to my sister's throat?" Prue asked.

Prue looked intensely at Jareb.

"You're obviously too weak to kill me" Prue said. "You're so afraid I'll beat you that you have to go through my sisters to get me"

Jareb threw Piper to the ground and stormed up to Prue. He put the knife up to Prue's throat.

"Who is the one chained to the wall?" Jareb asked. "I have waited long enough and now you're going to die"

Before Piper could freeze the scene he stabbed Prue in the abdomen.

"No!" Piper exclaimed.

She quickly froze the scene and ran over to Prue. Prue wavered in and out of consciousness.

"Leo, get over here!" Piper yelled.

Leo regained consciousness and hurried over to Prue.

"Um, magical rope I wish to cease, on my command at once release" Piper said.

Prue fell from the wall but both Leo and Piper caught her. They gently laid her on the ground and Leo started to heal her. Phoebe opened her eyes. When she saw what had happened to Prue she got up and ran over to her.

"What happened?" Phoebe asked upset.

"He stabbed her before I could freeze him" Piper said holding on to Prue.

Tears had started to fill Piper's eyes. Leo finished healing her and Prue sat up gasping for air.

"Breathe" Piper said. "Just take a deep breath and breathe"

Prue started to stand up.

"I want to go home" Prue said to Leo.

Leo looked at Piper concerned. Piper nodded. Leo orbed all of them back to the manor. Prue almost fell backwards the minute they got into the manor. Piper and Phoebe grabbed her arms and steadied her.

"Whoa" Phoebe said. "Maybe you should lie down"

Prue nodded and they took her up her bedroom. She laid on her bed and Piper and Phoebe stayed there with her until she had fallen asleep. They went into the living room where Leo was.

"This is bad, Leo" Piper said. "I've never seen her look like that before…it's like she doesn't want to live"

"We've lost our big sister and she's still here" Phoebe said. "I don't think Prue's going to make it if we don't find a way to get either Andrew or Andy back"
