After a very long explanation of the revelations in the attic; everybody was still trying to find out why they had been brought together. Leo, orbed in after consulting with the elders again.
"Hey, what did they say?...no hang on wait...they said there is a power looming that could wipe us all out but they can't tell us what" said Phoebe laughing.
"I hate to say it, but yes, as predictable as they are they're pretty sure about this one"
"Wonderful" said Sam and Dean together.
"It begins now." Said a voice that wasn't one of the seven of them. It was a darklighter, the cross bow fired one arrow, it zipped through air toward Leo, then it split and one hit Sam's arm as well.
"Leo!" Shouted Piper as he fell to the ground.
Prue and Phoebe took a look Leo's wound and took him to lay down on the sofa.
"Jack, take the car, get Sam to the hospital, get that arm looked at, I'm not taking any risks" Instructed Dean.
Jack and Sam headed out of the door.
"I don't understand, why did it target Sam, Sam's not a whitelighter?" Said Prue.
"Jack, I'm not in that much pain, you can slow down, there are speed cameras on this freeway you know" said Sam
"Sam, I...I can't help it, something's pushing the accelerator, it's not me!" Said Jack, panicing, he lifted his foot off the pedal to prove it.
As the car spun out of control, it crossed three lanes, causing chaos. The car finally crashed, trapping Jack and Sam in as the bonnet buckled with a sickening crunch of bending metal.
Still in the house Dean was doing his best to help the girls and Leo, his cell phone rang and he answered.
"Mr. Winchester, I'm afraid there has been an accident"
"What sort of accident?"
"I'm Detective Swann, I'm afraid your brothers have been in a car accident on the freeway"
"You're kidding, are they ok?"
"Mr. Winchester, you need to get down here. I'm afraid we...we weren't able to locate the driver of the car"
"I'm on my way"
Prue gave him a concerned look. She was about to ask him about the accident and tell him to use her car. She was disturbed when Phoebe's scream followed a terrible moaning sound. Phoebe was gone by the time they reached her.
"Phoebe!" screamed Piper, she fell to pieces, "I tried to freeze it Prue, I did" She said now crying on Prue's shoulder
"Piper pull yourself together, we'll get her back, you can't just fall apart like this"
"Why not, Leo's dying and now Phoebe's disappeared all because I wasn't quick enough!"
"Piper" Yelled Prue "Get a handle on things"
"Where did Dean go?" Piper asked after a couple of deep breaths.
"He just got a call, Sam and Jack were in a car accident on their way to the hospital. Not sure how serious"
"We need them, Prue. First Leo, now Phoebe, I don't understand, what the hell is going on?"
Dean sped up the now closed lane of the freeway. The traffic jams were getting bad. He realised with dread that the accident was a lot worse than he imagined. He saw ahead of him, the fire fighters were cutting the passenger side of the car, the paramedics were also there. Worst of all, the police dogs were there, looking for Jack.
Dean ran to the side of the car where Sam was, he crouched down.
"They're getting you out now buddy, you've got to hold on" He reassured him
"Dean...where is...Jack?" gasped Sam.
"I...I...don't know, but we are going to find him, I promise"
"Mr Winchester, we need to get your brother out, you need to move" Interrupted a hard faced paramedic.
Dean walked well away from the accident site, he crouched down in the grass verge, feeling sick from the shock of what was happening. He let his feelings out in a flood of tears, sobbing harder than he had ever sobbed before. He felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Prue?" He pulled himself suddenly together, somewhat embarrassed she had seen him in tears.
"I astrally projected here" She said quickly "Phoebe disappeared, she was taken"
"Jack's missing too, Sam's probably broken both legs and God knows what else, Prue this is demonic, this thing is picking us off one by one, it wants all six of us"
