"What did he mean?" Piper asked.

"I don't know, but weren't you a little surprised that Phoebe didn't even try to fight back?" Prue said.

"No, not really I just thought that she was in too much pain," Piper replied looking down at her youngest sister and stroking her hair gently.

"But she didn't even respond to his verbal jarring and that is so unlike Phoebe," Prue replied.

"That's true she's never once not retaliated when someone has said something bad to her," Piper said.

Prue was going to reply but stopped when she noticed Phoebe stirring on Piper's lap.

"Pheebs," Piper said trying to rouse her sister from unconsciousness.

Phoebe groaned as she opened her eyes. Everything was blurry and she felt so dizzy. She could faintly hear her sister's voices calling her name so she tried to sit up and find them. She collapsed back down onto Piper as a wave of pain and nausea greeted her. Realisation coming back to her Phoebe began to cry.

"Ssh, Pheebs, its ok we're going to get out f here ok," Prue said as she rubbed Phoebe's back comfortingly.

"No it's not ok," Phoebe cried. "How are we supposed to get out of here, I can hardly stand let alone fight and we don't even know how to vanquish Dolores."

"That's where your wrong sweetie, we do have a way to vanquish Dolores. Piper wrote a spell," Prue said.

"But Piper sucks at writing spells," Phoebe said and then she laughed. Piper was about to bite back but stopped when Phoebe's laughing turned into a coughing fit.

"Hey, hey it's ok, just relax and breathe," she said as Phoebe's coughs died down.

"Don't tell me you're getting sick as well," Prue said.

"That's right witch," Dolores said shimmering in and causing them all to jump in shock.

"You see, by keeping all three of you in that cage your powers are useless against me so I'm free to feed on as much of your pain as I wish. And your little sister here, well she's given me a lot of pain, but let me tell you it didn't come easy. In the beginning she would fight back like you wouldn't believe. Eventually she would just yell things at me in retaliation to the things that I would say to her, but today I knew something was up. Usually when I mentioned her sisters she would come up with some silly little comment about how you guys would be arriving at any second to kick my ass, but no not today, nothing, she didn't even flinch, so you see, she gave you guys up. It's all your fault that all three of you are going to die," Dolores said pointing straight at Phoebe.

Piper felt Phoebe flinch and she said reassuringly to her sister, "Pheebs, its not your fault don't listen to him ok."

"Ahh, but you see it is her fault," Dolores continued, "These powers of mine, they are great fun let me tell you. And I've had the time of my life messing with the pain of the Charmed Ones. Young Phoebe was the easiest to weaken, I knew that she had trained hard in martial arts to make up for the fact that she had no active powers so I targeted that. By beating her and causing her pain in physical combat I was reaching two of her greatest sources of pain. But you see it didn't just stop there. I realised that by using Phoebe I could also reach some of your greatest pains as well. Piper, I have been blocking Leo being able to reach you guys for some time. This served two purposes. One he wasn't able to heal Phoebe and two, he wasn't able to reach you, you may not have realised it but deep down you began to question his love for you and in turn this fed me your pain."

"You're an evil bastard," Prue spat out reaching over to comfort Piper.

"Perhaps," Dolores said laughing evilly.

"But Prue you didn't think I would leave you out of this did you?" Dolores asked.

Prue didn't say anything; she just glared at him with her icy blue eyes.

"So noble, so courageous, so proud and yet you couldn't even save your sisters." Dolores said.

Prue looked at him with hard eyes but still she didn't respond.

"Well Prue, I've heard you can handle anything. I hope you can handle this," Dolores said waving his hands over the cage.

"What did you do?" Prue said her voice filled with venom.

"Ask Phoebe," Dolores said before shimmering out.
