As I watched Piper hug Victor, I felt a surge of anger fly through me. Piper shouldn't be protecting Victor. "Prue…" I ignored Phoebe, and headed for Piper and Daddy Dearest. "I knew I shouldn't have told you that Dad heard what you said about him,"
"It is a good thing that you did Phoebe. Maybe I can get him to go away," I snapped at my sister.
"Prue…don't you dare," Phoebe said to me.
"I will do as I please," storming over to Piper's car.
"Prue think about this…" Phoebe warned.
"What is there to think about?" I said to Phoebe. "Daddy Dearest should know how one of his daughters feel about leaving him," I sighed. After what seemed like ages, we reached Piper's car.
"Prue…" Piper started.
"Not now Piper. So going to add eavesdropping onto the list of things that you have done as a deadbeat," I snapped. Shaking my grip of Phoebe's hand on my arm, I went close to Victor. "You know Dad," saying Dad with sarcastic venom hitting hit, "How does it feel that one of your daughters despises you? I mean seriously. Eavesdropping doesn't help your case very much does it?" Victor stayed silent, and I was reminded of just a year ago the day he came back into our lives, saying Paige has different DNA.
"Prue leave him alone," Phoebe said, grabbing my arm again.
"It's ok Phoebe," Victor said.
"No…it's not ok Victor," I said, once again successfully getting my arm away from her. "Look, we do not need some mortal trailing behind us, especially one that ran out on his own wife because she was magical…and then return only to leave again. So how long are you going to stay Victor, because you are definitely known for leaving your family behind when it gets tough."
Victor's POV
"I'm here for good." I said stepping out of the car. I moved closer to Prue and wrapped my arms around her and pulled her into a hug. I felt her stiffen and try to fight the hug. "I'm not going anywhere; Prue, not now and never again." I whispered as I felt her receive the hug. "I love you." I bent down and kissed her check before putting my head back around so that I faced Piper and Phoebe who were standing behind Prue.
Prue's POVAs I felt Victor's wrapped his arms around me, I desperately tried to back away from him, but he continued to hold me as he whispered he was never going to leave again. A huge part of me wanted to believe that he wasn't going to leave, and another part just wanted to get Victor Bennett off of me, and smack him in the face for overstepping his boundaries. Slowly…the anger I had accumulated over the years started to go away, and I did not like this. I didn't want to be all happy that he is back. One year of staying doesn't make up for twenty years of not having a father. Finally I just accepted the hug, and let my Daddy hold me, just like he had so many years ago. I knew as soon as I pulled away from the hug a lot of anger would return…the anger I needed so I could vanquish the demon that killed Mom. "I love you," he whispered, and kissed my cheek.
I really wanted to calm down and finally accept that Dad was back for good, and that he came back for us, and so Paige could meet us, and accept her into our hearts. I could feel Piper and Phoebe stare at me to see my reaction on how I was going to react to Da…Victor touching me. Well I can try and figure out how I feel about this later, right now we need to focus on finding Mr. Scruffy, and our demon. I pulled away, and had wanted to say, I love you Daddy, or at least thanks, but what came out instead was, "If you ever touch me like that again, I will break both of your arms," I said as I forcefully ripped his arms away from me, and I headed towards the lake once again, wiping tears away that just had to start coming out at that point.
Phoebe's POVDamn it Prue. I sighed watching her walk off, but I did notice that she was crying. Piper and I looked towards Dad, and I didn't know what to say to him. Since Piper and Prue probably were still not on talking terms, I was the only one that could talk to her, but I wanted to spend some time with Daddy too. "Dad…"
"Its ok Phoebe," he said, patting my shoulder. I know Piper wants to have some alone time with Dad…and I can get it any time I want.
"I'll go and talk to Prue," I said giving Dad a tiny smile. I saw Piper shoot me a grateful look. "Hopefully we can get this over with really quick, and we can just talk…or whatever," I said, jogging over towards Prue. "Prue…"
"Phoebe…not right now," she said not looking at me. "Look…just go with Piper and Da-, Victor…I really want to be alone right now Phoebe," I am not letting Prue just be by herself.
"Prue…honey," I said turning her around, to face me. "We cannot ignore this…and Dad is trying to help you Prue…why can't you just accept it?" I wanted her to forgive Daddy, and I know he doesn't like one of his daughters's hating him.
"Phoebe…please, can we just focus on fighting the demon?" she asked tightly, and I saw part of the lake's water starting to swirl angrily.
"No Prue…look your unsaid emotions and feelings are causing things to ripple…" I tried once again to get her to open up.
"Not right now," Prue said firmly. "I am calm, and all I really want to do is vanquish this demon, and go home," she said picking up her pace, and I sighed, waiting for Dad and Piper to catch up.
Paige's POV
"South Bay Social Services, Paige Bennett, speaking. How may I help you?" I said into the phone.
"Can you help a lonely friend out and agree to meet him for lunch?" A soft male voice said on the other end.
My eyes lit up and a soft smile played on my lips. "Glenn! You are home. When did you get back?"
"Late last night. I'm staying with my folks." Glenn said. "So do you have time for lunch this afternoon, Paige?"
I doubled checked my day planner which so happened to be open to today's date. "I'm free. Matter of fact I'm free for most of the afternoon." I held the phone more tightly as I pictured my best friend as he was at this moment. Glenn would be all the likely to be just being in his boxers. He never liked to sleep with a shirt on. He said it always chocked him in his sleep. His hair would be messy; as messy as it could; seeing how Glenn was blessed with easy kept hair. He would be wiping his eyes to wipe the gunk out of them. He may even be wiping his nose. But most likely he's using his free arm to wrap around his chest.
"So where should we meet?" Glenn asked.
"Wolfgang Pucks." I said. "I feel like some soup."
"Ok, say around noon than?" Glenn said.
"Of course." I said with a pleased smile. "Oh Glenn I can't wait to see you again. I have missed you."
"I have missed you too Paigey, I have missed you too." Glenn softly said.
"Till noon than." I said quickly as I saw my boss looking at me.
"Till noon." Glenn said goodbye and I hung up the phone.
Piper's POV
"Thanks for staying back here with me daddy. I know that you wanted to go after Prue yourself; or even have some time with Phoebe. I don't want to seem to be hogging all your time." I said as I walked beside Daddy down the parking lot after Prue and Phoebe.
"I have learned early on that my time has to be spent between three daughters. Sometimes together; sometimes separate. But no matter what each of my daughters need and want some one on one time with their daddy; away from her siblings. That's the way it works in families." Dad said with a slight laugh and a firm nod.
I remained silent. I just wanted to enjoy this quiet private time with my daddy. Because I knew that I wouldn't be able to have another one for a very long time. Ok at least I still get daddy on the drive home; but who knows what type of mood we'll be in after we meet Mr. Scruffy and see the demon that we are up against.
Prue's POVSighing angrily I wiped the tears from my eyes. Why can't I stop crying…I am not going to let Victor make me do this? I am not going to cry for him like I used to as a child when Phoebe, Piper, and Grams weren't around. Finally forcing them away, I continued to walk around, just thinking about all that has happened since we became witches. I guess this wouldn't be so hard if we weren't witches, I mean sure I would be mad at Victor still, but we wouldn't have to be risking our lives fighting demons on a pretty much daily basis…
I looked out into the water, and let out a sigh. "What are you doing back here?" Mr. Scruffy…great just what I need. "You need to get out of here," he said to me. I turned around, angry glare set in my eyes.
"Ok look here buddy, you already had me lose one innocent, I am not letting you interfere again," I started, my hands balling into fists. I am so going Tae Bo his ass if he doesn't stop getting in my way.
Victor's POV
I saw that Sam was in front of my daughters. I saw that Prue was losing her temper.
"Looks like Mr. Scruffy is back for more." Piper said as she quicken up her pace. I took a deep breath as I walked beside my daughter to join my other daughters. I was about to come face to face with Paige's father. Hopefully I won't give anything away.
I stopped behind Prue as I watched as Sam tried to preside my daughters away from the lake. "It won't work," I said softly. "Once my daughters' minds are made up; than there is nothing that can change it."
Sam glared up at me and was about to tell me where I could get mine; when his eyes widen in disbelief. "Victor? Victor Bennett?" He couldn't believe that he was looking upon my face again.
"Hello, Sam. It's been a long time." I softly said.
Prue's POVI knew Victor was hiding that he knew who Mr. Scruffy was. Victor is lucky that I am not laying him out right now. God, why couldn't he just tell us who he was, but no….he had to come and be Protective Daddy. Do we look like we are some noobie witches to him? "So I see you two have met," I said stiffly. Sam seemed flabbergasted that Victor was here. "Thanks for letting your daughters know that you pompous bastard,"
"Prudence," Victor said in a stern fatherly voice.
"Why don't you stop acting like you are some wonderful father Victor? You are no better than Scruffy over here. I could have saved that innocent, and now you are in our way of vanquishing a demon," I snapped at him.
"Prue stop it," Phoebe whispered sharply. Yeah I guess there was no use to yelling at Victor out here, but still this is such bullshit. I saw Piper shooting me a cool it look, and I just rolled my eyes.
Sam's POV
"Yea it has been a long time." I said as if Prue hadn't basically bitten her father's head off. "Why didn't you tell 'em that you knew me?" I asked with raised eye brows. "Obviously Prue had gone home yesterday and shared her encounter with me."
"I had to make sure it was you." Victor said with a shrug. "It's good to see you again." He tilted his head. "Of course you look much better without a bread, Sam. It doesn't suit you."
I lifted my hand to my face. "It's too much brother to shave." I said softly. I hadn't shaved my face since Patty died. I couldn't. But I did to keep the bread looking neat; I knew that Patty wouldn't want me scaring people with a wild and dirty bread. So I took time to groom it and keep it decent. "What the hell are you doing here, Victor?" I asked with sudden anger in my eyes.
"I came to see about the water demon." Victor said.
"Daddy….." two of his daughters gasped.
"Sam knows all about the water demons, girls." Victor said in a calm voice never taking eyes off me.
"Do they know about me?" I chocked out.
Victor shook his head.
Prue's POV"Ok…what is this anorexic Santa talking about?" I asked towards Victor. "Never mind, I don't ever get anything out of you," I waved Victor away. "So what is this thing you don't want to know about you?" I asked. Victor put a hand on my shoulder stopping me from getting any closer to Scruffy, and I slowly turned around to face Daddy Dearest. "Get your hand off me Victor Bennett, or I will," I grunted angrily.
"Prue," Phoebe said, grabbing Dad's hand away from my shoulder, and dragging me away from him and Sam. "Get a cooler head because the way you are acting now is not going to be good when we are trying to do a vanquish," she snapped sharply.
"Fine," I said, once again forcing Phoebe's hand off me. Putting a neutral look on my face, and staying far away from Victor and Sam, folding my arms over my chest.
Victor's POV
"Piper would you mind joining your sisters, Sam and I have something to discuss." I said turning to look at Piper who was still by my side.
"Sure daddy." She said and she didn't look like she wanted to budge. But after one more look at my face; she turned and walked over to where Prue and Phoebe were standing.
"They don't know that you were Patty's whitelighter." I said in a low voice. "They don't know that you and Patty had a …."
"Affair." Sam said deeply but sadly. "Look Victor," He rubbed his chin once more.
"Forget it." I waved my hand. "It's in the past." I wanted to tell him that out of that affair came Paige. But Sam didn't know that I even knew that he shared a daughter with Patty; or that I had raised Paige. No all Sam Wilder knew was that he and Patty had been forced to give up their baby girl two days after their daughter was born. I wanted to tell him the truth; but Paige didn't even want Sam to know yet. It was all connected to Prue, Piper and Phoebe. I sighed deeply. "I have forgiven Patty." I looked deep into Sam's eyes. "I have forgiven you, Sam."
"How can you forgive me for loving your wife." Sam asked.
"How can I not?" I replied.
Sam just stared a little unsure at me. He sighed deeply. "I shouldn't have taken your wife from you."
"You never did." I said softly. "Look Sam, I wish us to be friends. How about it?" I put out my hand for him to take for a shake. I waited to see what his reaction would be.
"I'm sorry Victor, but I can't." Sam said wrapping his arms across his chest. "I want to, but I can't." He frowned and I could see the deep pain in his eyes as he was thinking of his love for Patty and his loss of Paige.
I brought my hand back to my side. I wish I could tell Sam that Paige was safe and happy. That he had done the right thing on giving her up so she could have a typical childhood away from the Elders. But I couldn't. I promised myself to talk to Paige that evening and let her know that she needs to somehow get to Sam and tell him that she was fine and happy.
Prue's POVI sighed watching Victor and Sam talk, and it was bugging me that they were talking so long. "Prue…will you please calm down?" Piper asked of me. Turning to her, I let out another sigh. "Look, you didn't tell me what was bugging you yesterday, and neither did Phoebe, so I can be just as pouty and bitchy as I want to be," I snapped at her, and she instantly shut up. Seeing as Piper and Phoebe weren't going to say anything, I marched over towards Victor and Sam, finally calm enough just to think of the demon only.
"Look…as I can tell you two want to catch up on stuff, but we need to focus on the demon here," I told them in a soft voice.
Glenn's POV
I got out of my jeep and walked over to the outdoor café that Paige and I had agreed to meet earlier today. I saw that I had beaten Paige here; which wasn't too surprising; seeing how Paige is late to everything. It was chronic. But Paige had the total advantage of me; I am a mere mortal and have to drive everywhere; while Paige is half white lighter and can orb anywhere she wants to go. Orbing only takes a few mere seconds; you ask how I a mere mortal knows this; it's because Paige had orbed me around a lot while we were growing up. Much to Mr. Bennett's distraught. But ever since Paige told me that she could turn her body into millions of pieces and still be alive; I demanded her too prove it to me.
Boy I could still see Mr. Bennett's expression when he walked into Paige's bedroom and seeing her tiny orbs and me sitting on the floor with my mouth open my eyes bugged out. That was when we were four years old. I remember when Mr. Bennett told me that I could never tell my parents the truth about Paige; otherwise they would make me stop playing with her. I couldn't allow that so I promised on my life that I wouldn't tell. I never did.
I remember when I met Paige's mother for the first time. I couldn't believe that a dead person's spirit could come and go whenever they wanted. Once my fear went away; I asked Paige's mom if she saw my grandpa who had died when I was just two years old. She said yes and that he was pleased on the way I was turning out.
Paige's POV
I looked at my watch and winched as I saw the time. Late again. As always. Good thing that I have another means of transportation besides driving my lime green Volkswagaon bug. Sides I knew that Glenn would completely understand why I was so late on meeting him. Not only have I been held up at work; which by the way is a total legitimate reason; but I'm chronically late. When I do my best on trying to be on time too something; that just me later. At least the people who are important in my life; daddy, Piper, Phoebe, Prue, Glenn understand and don't get upset when I'm late to my meetings with them. Even my boss Mr. Sam Crowen understands now; and doesn't get on my case any longer. Although he does frown at me when he sees me come in late.
"I'm off now Mr. Crowen." I turned around to face my boss who was speaking to another caseworker at the wall next to his open office door.
"Have a good day, Paige." Mr. Crowen nodded tightly not brothering to turn to look at me.
I looked at Mr. Crowen a little bit closer than normal; he looked worried and stressed out about whatever he and I forget what the older man's name was; was talking about. I was about to ask if I could be any assistance but than I remembered that I wasn't a case worker yet. Although I do have my degree. But I still have to work my way up to that status. I sighed and grabbed my purse and walked away from Mr. Crowen and the other man; and I walked from the office. I saw that the hallway was swamped with people; so I had to walk as if I was heading towards the front door before I found a quiet and deserted place in a crack in the hallway and I orbed to my lunch with Glenn.
Victor's POV
I folded my arms across my chest as I turned to face my daughters head on. I sighed through my nose.
"Who said it was a demon?" Sam asked in a quiet voice.
"Don't try that line, Mr. …. Sam!" Prue steely said with a hard look on her face.
"Don't take that tone with me Prudence Halliwell." Sam said in a stern voice.
"Don't talk like that towards my daughter." I swung my eyes back over at Sam.
Sam blinked. "I'm sorry Victor. You are right I'm way out of line." I noticed that he didn't apologize to Prue. I nodded tightly over at Sam before turning fully to my daughters once again.
Glenn's POV
I leaned back in the booth and put my arm across the back of the cushion and I reached for my coffee mug with my free hand. I lifted it to my lips and took a sip. I looked across the restaurant at the young woman whom had just entered. Wow! And boy do I mean wow. She had long strawberry blond hair down to her waist; she was thin; I see a hint of a thong at the back of her jeans. She had the most beautiful of all smiles known to man kind; and believe you me when I say I know smiles. I have been all over the world and seen plenty of women smile.
But back to watching the woman walk towards me. Well of course not towards me personally; but towards the table that was across from the table that I had picked out for Paige and I. She looked towards me and smiled at me. Yes folks; she smiled at me. I could tell from her blue tinted sunglasses that she saw me and she smiled me. I used my sexy smile that said yes I notice you baby; but I'm not over anxious to get into your pants. I don't want to scare this woman off now do I? I can tell that she liked what she saw.
I was about to get up and go over and hear this wonderful goddess's voice when Paige walked up with her own smile for me. "Hello Glenn." She leaned forward and kissed my left check. I managed to relay to the goddess's that Paige was just a dear friend and not something more to me. I saw that the goddess understood and she went on to her table. She sat in the chair that faced me. "Hey Paigey." I said turning my attention to Paige who was looking at me with raised eye brows.
"Who is she?" She asked softly but in a sign song voice.
"Behind you. Long strawberry blond hair." I replied with a smile.
Paige turned around to get into her side of the booth. She sat down and tapped her fingers on the table. "Cute." Was all she said. "Glenn, if you want to reschedule I'll understand."
I shook my head. I leaned forward and took her hands in mine and stopped her tapping. "No, Paige. This is your and mine day." I smiled. "So how is life? Work? Your dad? Your sisters?" I knew all about her three older half sisters and how Paige didn't want them to know the truth about her yet. I didn't agree with her keeping it a secret; but from the letters, emails, and the phone conversions I have had with her since I have been traveling I could tell how nerves and unsure she was on this point.
Prue's POV
I stayed silent as I watched Victor defend us, but I kept to myself, with a horrible effort. After years of him being gone, he has no right to say his daughters. As far as I am concerned, I have no father. I turned and looked towards the lake, where Mom died, and let them talk it out. "Prue," I vaguely heard someone say to me, but I chose to ignore it. I felt a hand go to my shoulder, and I leaned back assuming it was Phoebe or Piper. When I saw it was Victor who I was leaning my head on, I pulled away, in shock and disgust.
"Look lets just get this over with," I muttered, getting out Victor's reach. Phoebe glared at me, and I just gave her a whatever look. If Victor was hurt that I wouldn't even let him hug me, he was doing a great job hiding it. It's not like I care if I hurt him though. I turned and set a glare at Sam. "Well are you just going to stand there, or are you going to tell us what you know about the water demon? And make it snappy," I growled at him.
"Prue…" Victor started, and I cut him off with a glare.
"Victor," I said to him, "Don't talk to me like I'm your little girl, because Victor you lost that right when you walked out on us. So let us witches do our jobs, so stop interfering and let Sam tell us all he knows about the damn demon,"
"Prue, can you please stop being so catty to him?" Phoebe asked through clenched teeth. I glared at my little sister. I really have no reason to stop being a bitch towards him, considering he has no right to be here. So…I won't.
"Why should I? He has no right being here, not the place where I saw Mom die," Instantly Phoebe's anger was replaced by sadness, and I had to admit I felt horrible. She looked away from me and I sighed running a hand through my hair. Nice one Prudence, I turned back to Sam. "As you see, we have issues can you please just tell us what you know about the demon?" I asked as nicely as I could.
Sam's POV
I looked into Prue's eyes, and than over into Piper and Phoebe's eyes. These three were Patty's children. Her daughters, her flesh and blood. Patty was a mother of three ….no a mother of four. He hadn't forgotten about that lost little baby who was left to fend for herself. No Sam Wilder didn't forget the youngest of Patty's children; how could I when I'm that lost baby's father? My own sweet precious little girl should be standing here with her sisters and trying to find the demon that killed her mother.
I shook my head as I thought of my own precious little lost baby; I wouldn't want her to have risk her life fighting evil. I understood now completely how Victor Bennett felt when his own daughters were little girls; and knowing that they would have to fight evil on a daily basis; and not waiting until his daughters grew up
I made up my mind. I knew that Patty couldn't protect her daughters the way she would have liked; I saw that even through Victor is here now in his daughters' lives; I see that Piper and Phoebe had forgiven him for walking out on them when they were younger and seemed to trust their father. But Prue was a long way off from that point. So although I knew that Victor would protect his daughters with his life; Prue wouldn't give him the time of the day.
No it was up to me to put a stop to this and save Patty's three daughters lives. I prepared myself for the fight that I knew would coming after I had my say.
"I'm sorry but I can't help you." I turned around and started to walk back to my shack.
Prue's POV
"WHAT DID YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T HELP US?" I roared, making him stop. Who the hell does he think he is dealing with? He shook his head and once again started for his shack. "Piper freeze him," I ordered her.
"But it'll freeze Dad too," Piper stammered. God I am surrounded by idiots! Sighing I turned back around and swished my arm at Sam's retreating form, sending him flying back over towards us. He landed on the ground painfully, and I glared at him.
"Prue," Victor said angrily, "You do not use your powers on an innocent!" He shouted at me. I didn't even flinch. Does it look like I am scared of angry mortal daddy?
"Well since Piper wouldn't freeze him, I had to do something," I shot back at him. I inwardly smirked as I saw his facing boiling in anger. I turned back towards Sam, and glared at him. "Are you ready to talk now?" I asked, a deadly tone entering my voice.
Sam's POV
I stood to my feet slowly. I brushed off my butt with my hands. I hid the smile that came to me. Just like Patty. Patty never did stand my resistance on helping her with vanquishing demons either. I remember when Patty had used her powers on me; I caved in with Patty. But damn if I would cave into her daughter. I couldn't afford too. I had to protect the girls.
"I'm sorry but I can't help you." I said quietly and turned my back on Prue once more and started towards my shack.
Piper's POV
"Mr. Sam please give us the information that we are seeking; than we will vanquish the demon saving the innocents." I said seeing Prue face squeeze once more. I had to stop Prue from using her powers full force against Sam; he was our innocent after all. I didn't want Prue to hurt him in her anger over dad being there with us; against Sam.
Sam stopped walking away from us and slowly turned to face us. But with such sadness in his face. "I'm sorry but I can't help you." He said, and than he turned his back too us once more.
"Prue NO!" I shouted as I raised my hand and freeze the situation.
Prue's POV
"What?" I snapped at her, but was smirking seeing that Victor was frozen as well.
"Prue Halliwell, are you forgetting our little trip to the future? We don't want what could have happened to Phoebe, to happen to you," Piper growled angrily at me.
"No I haven't forgotten that Piper," I said quickly. "But its not personal gain if this scums," I said pointing to Sam, "is preventing us from another innocent from being lost because he wants to keep his trap shut,"
"Prue, you need to stop with this," Phoebe said, finally speaking up.
Phoebe's POV
"Prue…you can't just use your powers when you get your way," I said sadly. "We need to try and get Sam to talk without using magic,"
"Phoebe we need to get him to talk now. This demon cannot kill again, not another innocent," she yelled.
"Prue…I know this is personal for all of us, but you need to calm down long enough for him to tell us what we need to know?
Piper's POV
I sighed deeply and unfroze the scene quickly. "Mr. Sam," I began. I sighed. "What is your last name any way?"
"Wilder. But you can call me Sam. I don't really care for Mister any way." Sam said as he tucked his hands into his jeans pockets. "Your mother tended to freeze me also whenever she was ticked with me."
"You knew our mother." Phoebe asked excitedly as she jumped on the balls of her feet.
"Long time ago." Sam murmured. I could tell he was ashamed for all allowing the fact that he knew mom when she was alive to come to light with us.
"Tell us about her." I cried eagerly. I could tell how much Sam cared for mom when he spoke of her power.
Sam looked side ways at dad and than quickly shook his head. "I'm sorry but I can't help you. Not with the demon and not with information on your mother. I'm sorry." He turned and walked back to the shack.
"Dad." I cried beseeching at daddy.
"I'm sorry girls; but it's up to Sam to tell you what he knows. I can't and won't force him to talk." Dad said with a sigh and a shake of his head.
Phoebe's POV
"Doesn't he understand why we need to know about the Water Demon?" I asked in desperation. "Dad why can't you do something?" I whined. Normally I would suggest Piper freezing him, but after that little speech to Prue, I couldn't suggest a premonition.
I saw that Prue was raising her hand, and instantly I shot over to her, clamping my hands over hers. "Prue shooting him back here is not going to bring him around. Maybe I can get a premonition off the book," I sighed. Yeah maybe I will get another premonition of Mom.
"Well it is better than his plan of waiting for him to talk to us. We need answers now!" Prue growled, breaking my grip on her hands.
"Prue leave him be," Dad said to her in a fatherly tone.
"Bite Me," Prue snapped at him, storming towards Sam's shack. I ran towards her, calling her name.
"Prue! Just stop and think rationally for a minute will you?" I stormed, grabbing her arms once again. "Piper care to jump in any time!" I snapped at my older sister.
Piper's POV
"Phoebe please keep Prue out side." I said as I walked past my two sisters towards the shack. I stopped before I opened the door. "Daddy, can you stand guard."
"Of course." He said but he didn't sound pleased with the idea.
"He won't hurt me." I said softly.
"I know darling. But the truth …." Dad stopped what he was going to say.
I let go of the door handle and turned to face my father. "What truth is that daddy?" I tilted my head to look quizzing into my father's face, he looked so sad. Why did he look so sad?
"Uh Piper; if you want to get answers from Sam alone, than I suggest you go now." Phoebe called out; out of breath. I turned and saw that Prue was almost out of Phoebe's arms. "I'll be back." I said as I turned back to the door and opened the door without knocking. "Sam……" I softly said as I shut the door behind me. Sam turned around quickly and the look on his face stopped me from rushing on with what I wanted to say.
End Chapter Six
