"Prue, Penny is the one that got hurt! Why can't we go back to camp?" Phoebe screamed.
She was so angry she was banging her fists together.
"Phoebe! You're not going back, now I have to go to the hospital and pick up Penny, you better have everything in the laundry and your room cleaned when I get back or your grounded for the rest of the summer. Paige! Clean your room and put your stuff in the laundry!" Prue yelled to Paige.
"Okay Prue!" Paige answered coming from the kitchen. "Are you going to get Penny?" she asked.
"Yeah, I am," Prue picked up her bag.
"Can I please go?" Paige said looking at Phoebe like she was crazy.
"Paige, you don't have any laundry done," Prue said.
"Please Prue! I promise I'll get it done, plus, Pheebs has to use the washer first anyways," Paige begged.
Prue rolled her eyes, "Okay, come on," Prue gave in.
Paige ran and took Prue's hand and they walked to the car, just as Piper pulled into the driveway.
"Hey, going to get Penny?" Piper asked rolling down her window.
Prue nodded, "Yep, Phoebe is in a terrible mood, so make sure her room is clean and laundry is partially done okay?" Prue said.
"Will do, still upset about camp?" Piper replied back. '
"Yes, probably more upset than before, sorry, we have to hurry, Penny is anxious to get out of there," Prue said shutting the door.
"Prue, I wanted to ask Piper what was for lunch," Paige asked as Piper drove up the rest of the driveway.
"Well, would you like to stay so you can ask?" Prue asked sarcastically.
"No," Paige buckled her seatbelt and they drove off down Prescott Street.
-----
When Prue and Paige arrived at the hospital, Penny was already set to leave.
"Just sign here and she can go," the nurse told Prue. She signed the paper and picked up Penny's bag.
Paige was already pushing Penny's wheelchair quickly down the hallway.
"Paige, be careful with her please!" Prue said chasing after her sisters who were entering the elevator.
Prue helped Penny into the back seat of her SUV, "buckle your seat," she told her and closed the door.
"Is Piper making lunch right now?" Paige asked. Prue nodded, "Yes, it should be ready when we get home," she replied.
"What are we having?" Paige asked buckling her seatbelt. "I don't know Paige, we already discussed this once" Prue answered keeping her eyes on the road.
"Yeah, but you just talked to her," Paige said referring to Prue's quick phone call to Piper to say they were on their way home.
---
A few minutes from home, the girls saw something they weren't expecting to see. Fire shooting out of an alleyway.
Prue pulled the car over to the side of the road as the fire disappeared.
"Penny, Paige, stay here, I'm going to check that out," Prue opened her door.
She had finally come to grasp with having to save people's life on a daily basis.
"No way Prue!" Paige opened her door as well, "I'm going!" She got out and grabbed Prue's hand.
Prue didn't bother to argue, "Penny, don't move, I'm locking the door," Prue kissed her sister and closed the door and locked it.
She and Paige quickly disappeared into the alley.
---
Prue held Paige's hand tight, "if it gets to ugly, you run back to the car," Prue said. Paige nodded.
They turned the corner and came face to face with a demon.
Paige screamed and Prue flung her hand up, sending the demon flying into the wall.
The demon jumped up and formed an energy ball.
"Blue thing!" Paige yelled and the energy ball disappeared and reappeared in her hand. She looked shocked, but then threw it back at the demon, he engulfed into flames.
Prue and Paige closed their eyes and turned away.
Just as he disappeared, another demon shimmered in. He spotted the girls and send Prue flying before she could send him.
Prue laid on the ground and the demon send a fireball in her direction. She rolled over and it missed her by an inch.
The demon laughed and threw them at Paige and Prue at the same time.
Just before the fireball hit Paige in the face, it froze in mid air.
Paige stepped back and the demon froze as well.
Paige looked at Prue, "It wasn't me," Prue got up off the ground to find Penny standing there.
With her free hand up to freeze the fireball.
Prue looked at her and then back at the demon.
"Paige duck down!" Penny said. She released the freeze and send the fire ball flying back at the demon, killing him.
Paige sighed with relief. "Let's get out of here before another one appears," Paige said walking toward Penny.
"I thought I told you to stay in the car," Prue said.
The six year old shrugged as Prue picked her up.
"Well thank you for not listening," Prue laughed nervously and they got into the car.
---
An hour later the girls sat at the dining room table eating lunch.
Paige and Prue were telling Piper and Phoebe all about the demons.
"Penny saved us, she has the same powers as Prue and Piper," Paige told Phoebe.
"No fair!" Phoebe answered back, taking a huge bite out of her sandwich.
Penny was sitting quietly in her seat not saying a word. "She needs a nap," Prue mouthed to Piper.
Piper nodded and watched Penny beginning to nod her head and fall asleep.
"Baby, let's get you to your room," Piper said pushing Penny's plate back and taking her hand.
The child got up and followed Piper upstairs to her room that she shared with Paige.
---
"She fell asleep right away," Piper said back coming down the stairs.
Phoebe laughed, "doesn't she always?" she said.
Piper rolled her eyes, "she doesn't always have a broken arm and stitches in her forehead," Piper answered back. "True True!" Phoebe said back.
"So I see you're not mad about not going back to camp anymore?" Paige asked smartly.
Prue gave her a stern look.
"Nope, I spoke to Cole today and he told me he's moving here to San Fran in a month! So I'll get to see him everyday at school in the fall!" Phoebe said excitedly.
"Wonderful!" Prue and Piper said in unison, making everyone burst into laughter.
"Well, my lovely sisters, I have to go to work," Piper said beginning to clear the dishes.
"Pipe! We got the dishes, go ahead and go to work," Prue said standing up and heading into the kitchen.
"Okay! I love you all," Prue said hugging and kissing each of her sisters on the cheek.
"See you later," she said heading out the back door.
"Bring me all the dishes girls, and I'll rinse them and load the dishwasher," Prue told Phoebe and Paige.
----
Minutes later the girls were sitting in the sun room watching television.
Paige sat in front of Prue while she french braided her hair, "You're not going to work today Prue?" Paige asked.
"Nope, I have the day off to watch Penny," Prue answered.
"Shush!" Phoebe said over her sisters voices, she was completely sprawled out on the couch. Paige scoffed, "You shush!" She said back.
The phone rang and Phoebe got up to answer it. "Halliwell residence, this is Phoebe," She said twirling the phone cord.
"Phoebe, it's dad," Victors voice came over the phone.
"Dad, what are you doing calling here? Prue's going to flip!" Phoebe whispered.
"Who is it Pheebs?" Prue called from the sunroom.
Phoebe's heart jumped, "No one Prue! I'm just checking the voicemails," Phoebe yelled back.
"What do you need dad?" Phoebe asked.
"I'm in San Francisco for business next week, I would like to meet you and your younger sisters for lunch, how does that sound?" He asked.
"How would we get there without Prue and Piper driving us?" Phoebe asked.
"We will figure that out next week, just call me at this number," Victor gave Phoebe the number and they hung up.
Paige came around the corner scaring Phoebe half to death.
"Prue wants to know who you're talking to," she said.
Phoebe caught her breath, "You scared the life out of me!" "Sorry," Paige answered.
"That was dad, he's going to be in town next week and wants to have lunch with you, Penny and I," Phoebe whispered.
Paige's eyes got wide, she was almost jealous that Phoebe got to talk to their father and not her.
"How would we do that?" Paige asked.
"I don't know, we'll figure it out, are you going to tell Prue or Piper?" Phoebe asked.
"No way! We'll just tell her it was a prank call," Paige said as she and Phoebe headed back into the sunroom to be with their oldest sister.
