It's All Good

Prue struggled to her feet and stumbled about a bit, wobbling across the room. She winced as a sharp object un-snagged from her jumper and ripped into her skin. Even though she'd only fallen minutes ago, ('how had she fallen?' She wondered), she could already feel a bruise forming up the length of her leg. Not even bothering to check it, she limped around the attic, wondering if she should call Leo to heal her. A demon had Phoebe and Piper, and, even though she'd need all her strength to rescue them, she couldn't risk the demon catching Leo too so she passed on the idea.

Carefully and quietly, she crept out of the attic, and slowly made her way down the stairs, but she had to stop every few steps to catch her breath, had she possibly broken her ribs as well? That didn't matter though, she needed to get to the book of shadows and identify that demon, no matter what. There was a ping from Phoebe's laptop as she walked past her sister's room. She debated with herself, wondering if she should check the message or get to the Book of Shadows. Hesitating, the eldest sister limped into Phoebe's room and clicked onto the message that had appeared on the website that had revealed their powers. It was an update that, to anyone else, would mean little, but to Prue, it was pure gold.

Two women were in the club when I went back. The whole place is ruined but they too had returned. Seemingly, though, it seemed that they had no other reason for being there but for the reason they were there last time, to stop the demon. I can't give you much information on it because somehow, I assume the demon, knocked me out. But when I came round the women and the demon were disappearing and the bar was on fire. If you're reading this and you know these women, please help!

Already there had been two hits, besides Prue.

"What is he up to?" Prue said aloud, "Why, doesn't he realise…" It was so frustrating for Prue, how could he have got them on film, the whole room had been frozen! Suddenly there was a crash from the kitchen beneath her, then deadly silence. Without a minutes hesitation, Prue limped to the door way and listened. The deafly silence crumbled in her, weighing down on her. Tempted to call for Paige to check if it was her, Prue stopped herself. If there was the smallest chance that he hadn't found her youngest sister yet, Prue couldn't risk him finding her too. Even if there was the slightest chance of saving her sisters, calling to Paige would jeopardise them greatly. As fast as she could, Prue limped down to the kitchen and found Piper lying, unconscious on the floor.

"Oh, God!" Prue whispered, running to her sister's side, completely ignoring the burning pain that shot through her body on every step. "No," She cried, tears streaming down her cheeks. Even though Piper's face was burning hot, Prue could feel that her sister was freezing cold underneath, maybe that had something to do with the burning bar the stranger had mentioned. "Come on Piper…" She whispered, kneeling beside her sister and checking her pulse. Her dark hair fell over her face as she tried to wake Piper. But still her sister lay limp, her brown hair strands lying over her face. Prue gently moved the strands out of her eyes and bit her lip. She stopped crying and began to wonder. She didn't feel any sadness, she just felt… empty. Maybe it was because of the silence, or the fact Paige hadn't come, but she just didn't feel the way she had in the cave. This emptiness replaced that angry sadness she had felt then, because at least then she could blame herself. Who could she blame now besides the demons? That wasn't as satisifing because the demons were always to blame.

"LEO!" She suddenly called, but before she realised, she was not in the kitchen, kneeling beside her dying sister. If the transportation had been held off seconds longer, Prue would have noticed a lone journalist freelancer taking pictures through the net curtains.

There was a laugh, but the place was so dark she couldn't place it. It echoed around her, confusing Prue and making her feel surrounded even though she knew there was only one person there. There was a flash of blinding light, and Prue had to fall back as she used the hand that balanced her, to protect her eyes. But the flash only lasted for a mille second, and Prue hesitated, wondering if she'd managed to imagine it. But why would she have imagined it? That was stupid… Suddenly Prue began to doubt her actions and thoughts. 'Why am I putting myself down? I tried to save Piper, I tried my best…'

"I tried!" Prue said aloud, listening to her own echoed voice mocking her. 'I tried… I tried… tried….'

"No, you can't stop me believing I'm good! I tried to save Piper, it's not my fault, no, IT'S YOURS!" She screamed in to the never ending abbess.

'NO…IT'S YOURS… It's yours… yours…' The reply came in its mock.

"No…" Prue whispered shakily. Even though it was just echoing what she said, Prue felt it was actually arguing with her.

"SHUT UP! IT'S NOT MY FAULT AND YOU CAN'T MAKE ME BELIEVE OTHERWISE!" Prue screamed, sitting up.

'SHUT UP… MY FAULT… BELIEVE… MAKE ME….'

"No, no!" Prue whispered, struggling to pull herself away from the words that wrapped around her. "No," She repeated as memories of Piper, Phoebe and Paige flooded her memory.

Piper and Paige laughing together, Piper dying, Phoebe arguing with her, in the cave. Prue watched as she threw Paige out of the room, believing she was a demon. Paige staring at her angrily. Some memories she hadn't even seen, Wyatt being born, Paige trying to protect Phoebe and Piper when her past life attacked them. Piper being pregnant… Chris… "No…"

"Prue…?" A voice entered her thoughts, "Prue, wake up…?"

"Paige?" Prue asked blindly, trying to fight back the horrific thoughts. Then the room was bathed in orbs and brilliant, happy memories entered her mind. Prue and Piper visiting their infant selves, Andy coming, as a ghost, to her birthday party, the opening of P3… She helped that happen! Smiling, she blinked as she realised Paige was shaking her, and she actually looked worried!

"Oh, thank God!" Paige gasped as Prue came around. "Prue, you're alive!" 'Paige, you don't know the half of it…' Prue smiled.
