Paige sat up trying to catch her breath, it was as if she had been punched in the stomach. She pulled back the covers from her bed and ran down the hall to Piper's room. Pushing open the door she didn't even care what her sister was doing. "Piper!"

"Paige. What is it?" Piper could see the worry in her sisters' face.

Paige waited a moment before she could even speak, "It's Phoebe. She's alive and we need to get to her now."

"Paige we can't."

"I'll orb us. Leo can orb us. But we are going to Hawaii right now. She's in danger Piper and I think others are too."

Piper swung her feet around to the floor and grabbed at Leo to get out of bed. She knew Paige was right. But they still hadn't been able to locate her. Other then her own strange dreams and Prue appearing to them she hadn't been able to come up with any ideas, until now. Now it was also effecting Paige, and it would seem that it was also now effecting others.

Piper quickly grabbed the phone and called the one person she could trust; Darryl. It was still early enough in the evening that she knew she wouldn't wake him. Speaking quickly she told him they needed him to come to the house and watch Wyatt. They had a sister to find.

It was soon after that Piper watched as Darryl's wife ran up the Manor steps.

"He'll be fine Piper. Just go and get Phoebe."

Piper leaned forward and hugged her new friend and went over to Wyatt giving him a kiss, "Well be back soon honey. With your Aunt Phoebe, I promise." She smiled down at him as he listened to her, almost knowing and understanding that soon his family would be whole again.

She walked over to where Leo and Paige waited, 'Hang on Phoebs. We're coming' she said to herself as she grabbed onto Leo and the three of them orbed out.

They orbed outside the search and rescue office that they had been speaking with for over a month ago. Quickly scanning around to make sure no one had seen them they made their way inside.

He sat at his desk looking over maps and charts. It was as if he thought what ever he had lost would jump out at him right then. He lifted his head when he saw the shadows of people approaching him. "Can I help you?"

"I hope so. We are looking for a Lieutenant O'Connor."

"You found me. How can I help you?" he was curious her voice sounded familiar.

"I'm Paige Matthews and this is my sister Piper Halliwell, and her husband Leo. You were leading the search for our sister over a month ago."

"Phoebe, right I remember. But what brings you here now? That search was called off."

"We want it brought back on." Piper stated, " I know it sounds strange and I'm sure it is not something you do all the time. Lets just say Paige and myself are positive that she is still alive and needs our help."

"I'm sorry I can't. Its been to long the cost alone."

"The cost of what? Losing my sister forever? Lieutenant let me tell you something, the day my baby sisters plane crashed was two years, to the day that we lost our oldest sister. The same day. Do you have sisters?"

"Two."

"Then imagine what it would be like to lose one and then two years later to lose the other one. I will not let her die out there in some strange jungle. If you won't help us then give me what you had before you called it off and I will find her myself!" Piper glared at him almost wishing he would challenge her even more but she saw him soften.

He looked at her and then to Paige. He noticed Leo had said nothing. But he also knew why. This was their fight he was the support.

"I can help you, but not officially." He turned back towards his desk, "And Miss Halliwell. I do know what it is like to lose a sister. I have." He added as he went in search of the maps and charts they would need.

Piper watched as he made his way through his office. She felt bad, she never even consider what it would be like for someone else to lose a sister. She thought, for her to lose two within two years apart no one would even come close to that. But to lose one sister, she would feel for them.

They sat and looked at the charts before them.

Bill joined his friend when he arrived several hours later for work. "O'Connor you know we didn't even check."

"I know." he cut him off not wanting the sister to know, but it was too late.

"Check where?" Paige looked up at the search member.

Bill looked at his friend and boss before turning back to Paige. "There is a clump of small islands off the coast that are a no fly zone."

"No fly, like what? You can't fly over them?" Piper inquired

"You could say that. It was a set of islands that became property of Japan after the Second World War. It was there that we had no jurisdiction and ones even in a search we can't fly over."

Piper looked up stunned, "Even in an emergency such as a missing plane!"

"Yes. I'm sorry there have been many time's I wanted to fly over but when ever we got close we were met with military fighters from Japan."

Paige looked up at Piper and knew what they needed to do and where to go. The needed to get into those islands. They both knew by a look that that was where Phoebe was.

Piper saw the look on Paige's face and understood what she was getting across.

"I need to get some air." was all Piper said, as she made her away to the exit followed by Paige.

Leo looked at each man before him. He was trying to come up with an excuse "They're dealing together." Was all he said though knowing what each sister was thinking.

--- ----

"Paige you have to try and focus."

"I want to Piper but I've never tried that far before."

"You have to, for Phoebe. Just think about her and we will be ok." Piper took her sisters' arm in hers and waited for the orbing feeling to begin.

Piper opened her eyes to see nothing but a dense fog and to hear the wailing of people around her.

Her instant reaction was to freeze everyone, but as she looked around she still couldn't see the one person she was looking for.

Paige scanned the jungle like setting in search of her older sister but saw nothing but the beaten bodies of other women. But as she scanned her eyes she spotted the one prize they were looking for.

Paige grabbed Pipers arm and made her way through the hurt and injured bodies.

Piper soon spotted what Paige was after as her heart skipped a beat, "Phoebe! " She exclaimed into herself as she ran faster towards her sister in the small cage.

Paige called for the lock as they approached the small cell and Piper quickly tossed back the cell door revealing her younger sister. Piper reached in with kind words and softness not really sure how her sister would take her presence.

--- ----

Phoebe came in and out of the darkness that surrounded her. Her mind wondered to happier moments with her sisters as they turned to sadder times of losing Prue, Cole and Jason.

She felt the warmth around her as someone spoke to her. Her first reaction was to fight back as she felt the hold tighten around her. It was a hold she knew from her past.

Her mind whirled, "Piper?" it was the only thing her mind made sense of. The warmth in the hold spoke volumes to her. To let her know it was her sister holding her.

Piper felt the time freeze wear off. And as she looked up all she saw was the end of the barrels of the guns from the guards baring down on them.

Piper held on to Phoebe tight, as she also felt Paige's hand on her arm looking for any assurance if any out of the situation they were in.

One minute Paige had her hand on Piper and the next she felt herself almost dragged across the dirt away from her sisters. Leaving Piper crouched down with her arms around her sister still in the small cell.

Everything happened so fast, she didn't even get a second to orb out with her sisters. She was looking to Piper for some guidance when she decided the best thing would just be to orb out with Phoebe. But then she was pulled from them and wasn't sure what to do. The freeze wore off and she knew she couldn't just orb now.

"Paige!"

Paige heard Piper yell as the three of them were once again separated.

Piper felt the hand shoving her further into the cell with her sister and the door slamming on top of her.

Piper held on to Phoebe though she knew her sister wasn't letting go of her anytime soon.

He watched as the one was pulled from the other. Where had they even come from? He asked himself, but then he thought of something his grandfather used to tell him. Old tales of witches and dragons long before their time.

Piper looked down at her nearly broken sister. She had never seen Phoebe so lost. Even when she had a big blow up with Prue when they were teenagers, she always bounced back. But this time he almost had her, he almost broke her. Something no demon had even been able to do, though the closest would have to have been Shax when he killed Prue. She could still see the look on her face when she came back with Leo and the Manor was surrounded by death.

She knew she had to do something if only to get Phoebe home safely. She watched as the guard pushed Paige to the ground and kicked her in the ribs.

Phoebe still couldn't believe that she was in her sisters' arms. Piper was always the one to hold her when she was hurt or upset. Prue was her protector, she was the one to always come to her aid when she needed help. "Prue." She whispered softly.

"I know sweetie, I know she was with you. Just hang on a bit longer and we'll get you home." Piper soothed her sisters' fears as she ran her hand up and down her back just like when they were kids.

Paige reached up and was able to stop the foot that was heading towards her ribs once again.

"Piper! FREEZE!" she yelled out towards her sister. She knew that Piper was almost in shock at the way they had found Phoebe, but she also knew that they had to get out of this or they to would find themselves lost there forever.

Piper looked up and saw Paige wrestling to her feet as the guard that was beside her hit the ground. Though she also saw the others heading towards her. Reaching her hands through the small slits she used her power. Once again freezing everyone around.

Bobbie once again stood still against the cells bamboo bars. She watched what had happened the first time and was once again watching as the one they had hauled away held out her hand and the top of the outer small cell that held Phoebe appeared in her hand. She had her own secret and watched as the one tossed aside the cell door and ran towards the other two.

Trudy stood in wonder as she too watched everything take place in front of her. She looked to Bobbie for an answer but her friend held none. "Bobbie what the hell is going on?"

"I have no idea Trudy, but I think the cavalry just showed up." Bobbie said not taking her eyes off Paige as she ran towards Piper and Phoebe.

Paige ripped back the door that was separating her and her sisters. She took Pipers hand and pulled her to her feet who was intern helping Phoebe. Even now Paige could see how small her older sister was. She was skinnier then normal from obvious lack of nutrient.

"Piper we have to get outta here now!" Paige emphasized the last word as she was started to orb. But as she did Phoebe pulled away.

"No, we have to help them." her voice was weak but firm.

Piper looked down at the sister who was still in her arms, her emotions letting her know she was there for her no matter what.

"Ok sweetie, we will." Piper said as she held Phoebes head in tight to her shoulder as she ran her hand over the top of her head. Trying at best to ease her pain.

Paige quickly ran up the steps to where she saw who looked like was in charge. Running past him she felt the urge to deck him as her right hand shot out sending him sailing to the ground. With satisfaction she continued inside and saw what she hoped was there. A radio. Picking it up she started her search for the air base she and Piper had left in search of their sister.

It wasn't long before she heard the familiar voice she was looking for. Letting him know where they were and that others where there as well.

Piper held on to her sister as they sat on the ground waiting for Paige to come back. Piper had to hold in a reprimand as Paige flattened the guy at the top of the stairs. She knew he was probably the one she too would have liked to flatten, but she held on to Phoebe.

"Prue was here."

Piper looked down at her sister in her arms as one by one the rest of the prisoners walked out of their cells with Paige's help. Calling for the locks of all the calls she stood in the middle of the courtyard waiting for everyone.

Trudy grabbed their tormentor off the ground the second that the time freeze wore off. The knife at his throat was enough for his men to hold off.

"Drop em!" was all Bobbie yelled out to the guards that were standing around.

The looked from one to another as they heard the helicopters in the distance. They all knew it was over, they would be prisoners of war; prisoners to the other side.

The prisoners rounded them all up some rougher then they should but who was to blame them after everything they had been through. Torture beating and starvation. The choppers landed and took the first wave of prisoner's back to Hawaii. Phoebe insisted on staying. Staying till they were all gone home safely.

Lieutenant O'Connor stood on the tarmac as the last helicopter landed with Piper and her sisters. But the one thing that he was surprised at was the one behind them. He took a step forward not truly believing it was even possible.

"Big brother what did mum and dad tell you about starring." Bobbie laughed as she felt his warm embrace. It had been so long, she didn't think she would ever see him again though she also knew he wouldn't stop looking for her.
