Chapter Two

Prue woke up hours later with her head pounding again. "Ugh seriously, every time" She said as she tried to sit up, but could only go so far, because she was chained to a wall. "What the hell?" she pulled on the chains, but it was too dark to see exactly where she was. She tried feeling around the floor to try and find something to break free of these chains. She was about to give up when her hand hit something. She grabbed for and realized that it was a box. She pulled the box towards her and opened it. The dim light gave enough so that she could see the outline of the toy. Toy? She thought, she then began rummaging through the box for other things, she pulled out a Ragged Anne doll that she had when she was a little girl. "Wait a minute." She began to say, but then the room was suddenly filled with light. She squinted as she looked up the stairs and saw a tall blonde man coming down.

He stopped in front of her and squatted down, he looked at the box and then back to her. "So I've seen you found something to occupy yourself with, but really Prudence, a doll." He said grinning.

"Why am I here?" she asked as she glared at him.

"What at your home? I thought you would be thrilled to be here, I mean after all it is your house too."

"It hasn't been mine for a very long time and you know that, so drop the act. Why am I really here?"

"Can't a brother visit with his baby sister?"

"You're not my brother Wyatt."

He looked taken aback and then he stood. With a wave of his hand the chains disappeared and he began to pace. "You know Prudence I really thought out of people you would understand why I am doing this. I mean all I ever did was try to protect all of you, but I get no thanks or gratitude. All I ever get is you people trying to destroy me and take what I've work so hard to accomplish."

"Save us? Wyatt you killed Phoebe and Paige, not to mention Grace, Laura, Evan, Henry, Coop, oh and most importantly Melinda, but yeah great job Wyatt, you really saved us all, well actually them since they don't have to be in this hell anymore. So yeah you've been real helpful."

"Get up!" he demanded. She stood to her feet and kept her distance. "Now how about we take this upstairs, after you." he pointed towards the stairs.

She was hesitant at first, but then began walking towards the stairs. When she reached the top she saw three demons standing guard. "Ha, some trust, I'm kind of insulted though. Only three?" she said throwing him a smile. "Hello boys, miss me." She walked into the dining room and stopped in her tracks, causing Wyatt to run into her.

"What's wrong, why did you stop?"

"It's the same." Was all she said.

"What the house? Well of course it is why would've it changed. Besides she would just have a fit if I did."

"She" Wyatt just merely pointed in front of them. Prue turned around and saw her baby sister.

"Hello Prue, you look like hell."

"Melinda?" Prue stood there frozen in her tracks staring at her thought to be dead sister. "No it can't be you're dead."

"Actually I'm not, you see our lovely brother Wyatt here had an alchemist bring me back to life and then completely restored my body. I owe him everything."

Prue couldn't believe what she was hearing, Melinda defending Wyatt. She knew that when Melinda was alive that she wanted to reach out to Wyatt and make him see sense, but this was too ridiculous. "No, I'm not going believe for one second that your Mel, because she wouldn't be defending Wyatt as if he were a saint, she would be fighting her way out of this hell hole to come back to her family."

"Prue I am with my family, I'm with our brother."

"No he's not our brother, he's yours apparently. This monster hasn't been a part of my family for a very long time."

"Well this has been a fun little reunion, but can we please get on to the matter at hand, I am a busy man you know." Wyatt said as he began walking up the stairs. Prue and Melinda both just stood there staring at each other. "I said NOW!" he yelled. Both girls jumped and began to follow him up the stairs. When they reached the attic Prue saw Bianca tied to a chair with a blind fold on. She pushed pass Wyatt and ran to the woman's side. "Bianca can you hear me?" she said as she lifted her head.

"Prue? No you need to leave it's a trap." Bianca said as she began to panic and struggle against the rope that bond her hands.

"You bastard let her go now!" Prue said as she marched over to Wyatt and pushed him back. His face turned red and he grabbed Prue by her arm and sat her on a chair next to Bianca. "Melinda." He said, Prue looked at Melinda who waved her hand and Prue was suddenly tied to the chair. "Melinda let me go."

"Sorry Prue, but you don't have authority over our little sister anymore.


"WHAT!" Cassie cried as she began pacing the living room for the fifth time. "How? All she did was go upstairs and now she's just gone."

"Well we knew she was going there." Patty said as she looked at her big sister with a worried look.

"But that doesn't explain why she would leave her things behind. Prue would never leave without her daggers or potion bag." Sam said from the corner of the room.

"Well then where the hell did she go?" Cassie said as she sat on the couch. As if on cue a swirl of blue and white lights appeared in front of the girls, "Henry.", Cassie simply said.

"What the hell is going on Cassie, how is it that Wyatt has Prue?"

"WHAT!" the girls said in unison.

"How?" Sam asked as she stood next to her brother.

"One of my spies informed me three minutes ago. He said that Wyatt had her and Bianca locked up in the attic and was torturing them. What happened?" he asked as he looked between his little sister and his cousins.

"Prue found out that Bianca was missing so she decided to go on a suicide mission and try to rescue her, but by the time I got up here to stop her, she was gone." Cassie sighed as she began to pace back and forth. "What are we suppose to do now?"

"The only thing we can do, we have to go get her." Sam replied. All the cousins stood there for a second before they got to work on a rescue plan.


"Are you sure about this because if you're lying to me I'll skin you alive." Henry said as he looked at his informant.

"I swear I'm telling you the truth Henry, why would I lie to you man?" the man said as he cowered away.

"Just taking precautions Manny, you should know that better than anyone, now go back before they realize that you're not there." The man nodded and shimmered away. Henry sighed as he walked back towards the house. He knew that Manny wasn't that stupid enough to snitch, but at this point he didn't even care, he needed to get Prue back, he promised Chris that he wouldn't let her do anything stupid and he was going to stick to that promise.

As he reached the door he heard yelling coming from the other side. Rolling his eyes he opened the door to find his sister and cousin fighting for the millionth time. He walked into the living room and sat down on the couch closing his eyes. "HENRY!" he heard Sam cry from the dining room. He stood and walked into the dining room, he saw Cassie glaring at Sam, who was in midair trying to orb, but Cassie wasn't letting her grip go. "Cas, let her go."

"Why all she's going to do is get herself killed the rate she's going."

"Cassie."

Cassie looked at Henry and rolled her eyes, "Ugh fine." She said as she went over to the dining room table and began to study the blueprint layouts on the Manor. Sam walked over to Henry and stood behind him. He looked at his little sister who just shrugged her shoulders. "So you know were suppose to be lying low, you could hear the fighting down the street."

"Yeah well sorry if I'm the only one that thinks keeping the rest of this family from being killed is top priority." Cassie mumbled.

Henry just sighed and sat across from his cousin, "Cassie, please just don't okay."

Her head shot up, "Don't what Henry. Act like the only thing that this family ever accomplishes is dying, that we're born, we live in hell and pray that it all ends, in our case for some it does a little too early."

"Okay, but that doesn't give you the right to be all miss mopey and decide that you're the one in charge of our lives."

"Actually little cousin, Prue put me in charge while you were off gallivanting lord only knows what?"

"You know I was at the warehouse, what is wrong with you, lately all you've been doing is trying to control every detail of our lives, like were puppets hanging on by thread."

"Can we please just focus on Prue?" Cassie said as she went back to the blueprints.

"No, we're going to finish this conversation now, because I don't want to go into a house full of demons, with tension between, believe I've learned that the hard way." Cassie sighed and dropped her head in her hands.

"Fine." Cassie said as she stood and walked into the kitchen where she grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge.

"Sweetie what's wrong? Why are you closing up on us?" Sam said as she placed a hand on her cousin's shoulder.

"I'm just tired of all of this, the fighting, watching the people we love die around us; the fear of having to looking over my shoulder and pray that I'm not next, I just want it all to be over Sam."

"Hey it's okay sweetie, we're going to get her back." Sam pulled her big cousin into a hug. Henry walked over and joined the hug. "Okay how about we get back to work, before this turns into a soap opera." Sam said as she walked out of the kitchen and went back to the table. Henry and Cassie just smiled and followed Sam.


"So is this it? Am I going to die by boredom cause frankly Wyatt, you're torturing skills are a little uncoordinated. Where's the fire, the electricity that you usually use?" Prue said as she glared at her older brother, who moved her back into the basement to get her away from Bianca.

"Prudence, why do you always have to be so difficult? God you sound just like our mother."

"Don't you dare speak about her, she stopped being you're mother when you decided to be ruler of all evil, the day you decided to abandon us and leave us to the demons."

"Pru-"

"And stop calling me that, my name is Prue, not Prudence."

"Oh is that the button I need to push then, the name given to you at birth. Well then fine have it your way Prue." Wyatt walked over to her and lifted her chin up so he could face her directly. "Well if that's the game you want to play then that's game we'll play." He said with a wicked grin. He stepped back and held his hand to her forehead. "Let's take a little trip down memory lane shall we." A bright light appeared from Wyatt's hand and began to cover Prue's body causing her to scream.

"Wyatt give it back!" Prue's eyes snapped open as she heard footsteps falling alongside her. She sat up and noticed that she was still in the manor, but it was different somehow. She stood to her feet and brushed her pants off. "I said give it back or I'll tell mom!" she heard the voice again. She walked towards the conservatory where she saw herself, well her younger self and a young Wyatt. "You were always tattling on me, I must admit it got really annoying." She jumped and turned towards older Wyatt, who had a smug look on his face.

"Where are we Wyatt?"

"Don't you know, I mean clearly that's you and I. Ugh I was so weak then, wait a couple more years little one, you'll love the power boost." He said to his younger self who clearly couldn't hear them.

"What are we doing here?"

"I thought you could use a break, you know have a little trip down memory lane, a look at what you're trying to save. This pathetic world is of no use to us and you know it. I mean just look how pathetic you are trying to get that bag from me." Prue turned back to their younger counterparts; she walked towards the scene so she could get a better look. "Nah ah, mom said I could hang the balloons in here, so give it back or else."

"Or else what Prudence." Wyatt said as he held the bag of balloons even further over her head. Prue glared at her brother and gave him an evil grin. She suddenly dropped to the floor and did a flawless roundhouse kick causing Wyatt to fall on the floor and drop the bag. Prue walked over and picked the bag up, but before she walked away she gave Wyatt, who at this point was still in shock, a smug smile and walked into the dining room. Prue smiled at the sight of her younger counterpart, but then her smile faded cause she realized what was about to happen next. She walked into the dining room and saw the decorations and food that was placed on the table.

"No, we can't be here, take me back Wyatt now!" she cried as she turned towards him, but stopped when she saw a woman with long brown hair walk down the stairs with a little girl in her arms. "Mom"
