Prue pushed past her own pain and made her way to her fallen sister. She held her hand on the bleeding on her stomach, "LEO!"

Piper stood in shock. Not only had Phoebe saved one of them again, but she was going to lose Prue's child now as well. "Leo do something!" she yelled at her husband the same time Prue had. But he was already falling to his knees as he slide next to the two Halliwell sisters.

"Phoebe hang on baby, don't you give up. You are having that child you hear me?" Prue begged her sister to listen to her. Anything to save both her babies.

Piper moved in beside Prue and took her in her arms the best she could. She had Phoebes head resting on her lap as she bent over her.

"Prue let Leo…"

"I am not leaving her." Prue wanted to pull away from Piper. She had her baby and now Prue was losing hers, and she knew in the process, she would lose Phoebe as well.

Leo held his hands over Phoebes wound and let his own magic flow through him.

Prue felt Phoebe stir beneath her and gripped her in a tight hug, she looked up at Leo to make sure everything was ok.

"They both are Prue." He smiled as he felt Piper rest her head on him as he wrapped his arm around her, "Let's get you three out of here before any of there friends decide to come and join the party." He took Prue and Phoebes hands in his as he orbed them home to safety.

Phoebe felt the residual pain to her stomach and instantly placed her hand there. She looked up with sad eyes into Prue's icy blue ones. "I'm sorry."

"Oh sweetie no. You're ok."

"But…"

"No. You both are."

Phoebe started up and felt Prue's arms around her helping her sit up. As Phoebe looked down she saw there was nothing there.

"Leo healed you both." Prue hugged her sister, "But if you EVER try that again. You won't have to worry about demons killing you."

"I didn't." he said as he stood holding Piper.

"Leo we saw you." Piper started.

"I healed Phoebe. I never healed the baby. You guys did that."

The three sisters shared a look, "Excuse me?" Phoebe asked as she stood up leaning on Prue.

"The protection spell you cast when Phoebe first came home. That is what saved the baby. The power of three over evil."

"So the spell worked?"

"Yes."

Bane ran in through the attic door in a near panic, "Where were you?" he grabbed Prue and gripped her in a hug.

"Hi Bane."

"Don't you hi Bane me. Are you ok?"

"We all are." Prue wasn't going to tell Bane just yet what happened in the underworld. She would tell him later that night just the two of them. She leaned up and kissed him.

Leo smiled but looked over at Phoebe, "You ok Phoebe?"

Bane looked over at Phoebe something wasn't right, "You ok kiddo?"
"Yeah never better, 'Dad'" she laughed at her new nickname for Bane.

Prue wrap an arm over Phoebs shoulder drawing her into a hug. "Come on you're sleeping with me tonight."

"I think Bane might object to that. And I really don't want to get in-between the two of you." Phoebe laughed as Prue guided her out of the attic.

"Don't worry Bane can go without for one night. I want to be close to my babies tonight." Prue was leaving no room for argument as the two made their way down the stairs.

Bane looked after her before turning to Piper, "Why am I sleeping alone tonight?"

"Ask your wife." Piper laughed as she hit him playfully on the arm before her and Leo walked out of the attic, leaving Bane bewildered, if not a little worried.


The next few months progressed with no signs of any demons. Which everyone at 1329 Prescott was thankful for. Especially Piper and Phoebe, that meant they could enjoy the pangs of their pregnancies.

"Oh I hate this. Why did I agree to this again?" Phoebe dropped down on the sofa next to a very large Piper.

"Because you are a kind hearted soul who was willing to help her big sister have her dream of a child." Piper laughed as Phoebe came out of the bathroom and sat beside her for the third time that morning. "You aren't doing that great are you sweetie?" Piper asked but she already knew the answer.

"Stupid question Piper. I swear this kid is ten times worse then when I was pregnant with my own." Phoebe closed her eyes to fight off the weariness in her head, "And where is my dear sister anyway. I thought she was going through all this with me. This is not going with me. She isn't even here."

"She got called in for a early morning shoot, but she said she would be back as soon as she could." Piper smiled as she looked at Phoebe. Phoebe was right, she was worse this time around. "You sure you are ok sweetie. I hate to say this but you don't look so hot."

"I'm just tired." Phoebe leaned against Piper who looked like she was going to have her baby any day.

"Get some rest, I'll make us some lunch. Maybe some food will help settle your stomach."

Piper got up and instantly sat back down, "Oh. That was. oh.

"Piper?"

"Dizzy. Very very dizzy."

Phoebe started to panic. It was just her and Piper at home. She grabbed the phone when she saw her sister getting more pale.

"Phoebe, Leo." Piper said quietly

"Right Leo. LEO!" Phoebe turned to Piper who was now unconscious, "Piper! Oh god. LEO!"

Leo orbed in and was about to say something to Phoebe about being with another charge when he saw Piper on the couch, "Piper?"

'I don't know what happened Leo, she stood up and then back again. Heal her!"

Leo held his hands over his wife's body but nothing happened. "Come on Phoebe, we'll take her to the hospital." He scooped his wife in his arms and rushed to the Jeep as fast as he could. Getting in and waiting for Phoebe to secure her own belt he backed out of the driveway and sped to the hospital.


Prue walked in the Manor, having seen the Jeep not there she knew Piper was not home. Probably at the club she thought. "Phoebe!"

Prue made her way around the Manor but was yet to get an answer from her sister. She saw the light flashing on the answering machine and hit play as she shuffled through the mail, "Prue, it's Phoebe. We tried your cell but you are either dead, off or out of range. Look, come to the hospital right away. It's Piper. Leo and I rushed her here over an hour ago but we still don't know what is going on. Please hurry." Prue heard Phoebe hang up and the machine continued. 'Message received, 148Pm.' Prue looked at her watch, an hour again on that, shit she thought, as she rushed back out the door nearly running her husband to the ground

"Prue?"

"No time come on. Phoebe called from the hospital something happened to Piper." She grabbed his hand and pulled him after her.

Prue and Bane rushed through the halls and spotted Leo waiting for them in the main entrance, "LEO?"

"Prue. Come on."

"What's going on?" Prue demanded

"She's ok. Just gave us all a good scare."

"Understatement of the year Leo." Bane told his friend as he felt Prue's hand tighten in his grip.

Prue walked in the room and saw Piper resting in the bed with Phoebe snuggled against her. Pipers eight months stomach and Phoebes three was a site to smile at, as they both seemed to be resting.

Prue quietly walked up to the bed and placed a kiss on Pipers forehead. She was soon greeted with the warmth of her sisters' eyes and weak smile. "Hi."

"Hi." Piper looked down at Phoebe who didn't move. "Let her sleep."

"I was. What happened?"

"Toxaemia apparently. Guess I was more stressed about the baby and the club all at once. Went to get Phoebe and I a sandwich or something and well I decided I wanted to come here instead."

Prue ran her hand over Pipers head, "You scared the crap out of me. When I got home and heard Phoebes voice on the machine."

"Yeah well, she was pretty scared. Still is I think."

"She have a better day?"

"Not really. She was sick all morning. You know you are sooo going to owe her when this is all done?"

"Yeah I know, and I've told her that too, but she won't have it."

"We'll you know her."

"Yeah. So what about you?"

"They want to keep me in a few days get everything balanced as best they can. Then I go home. Only catch. I may have this baby sooner then we all planned."

"That's ok. Get some rest now I'm not going anywhere."

Bane stood behind Prue and looked over at Phoebe. What would he have done if it was here lying in that hospital bed. She was his last hope to have a child with Prue. A product of the love they shared with each other. He never knew anything so intense as what he felt with her. He just hoped that everything stayed as smooth as it was.
