Death Takes A Halliwell

Death Takes A Halliwell

Disclaimer: I don't own any of the charmed characters they all belong to Aaron Spelling productions except Melissa.

Authors Notes: This is my series of charmed going from season two to seven all stories will be the same as that on the show except seasons two and three, which will class as one year because of Dan and Cole the rest will continue as normal.

Note: My stories will be a little different but still have the same outcome so the episodes fit together. All the characters of charmed including Andy Trudeau who didn't die Darryl Morris Source will be recurring characters as well as Cole who worked for the Triad. I'll be using spells from the show and some I create myself in these stories they'll be different but have the same affect and better sounding.

Extra Note: This episode's the same as Death Takes A Halliwell except for an added or changed scene here and there also the opening credits have changed because Prue and Piper are married now their middle names have been taken off and replaced with their married ones so instead of Prue being called Prudence Donna Halliwell and Piper been called Piper Marie Halliwell they'll be known as Prudence Trudeau Halliwell and Piper Wyatt Halliwell.

Episode Ten

Secluded Area Of San Francisco Beach Thursday Nineteenth February

Prue and Phoebe are there Prue's taking photos using her camera whilst Phoebe's building a sand castle Prue's wearing a white just below the knee pleat skirt yellow vest grey flat toe post sandals and her hairs up in a half ponytail Phoebe's wearing pink cropped trousers off the shoulder camel gypsy top white trainers and her hairs parted into two french plaits.

Phoebe:I hereby proclaim this power of sand Kingdom Phoebeville! Yay!

The waves in front of Prue splash on her Phoebe laughs.

Phoebe: Hey you should think about photography as a full time profession since you love it so much.

Prue turns to Phoebe.

Prue: (Miffed) Huh?

Phoebe: The photos you're taking.

Prue: Oh right yeah well I'm already working at Buckland's so why would I wanna do photography?

Phoebe: Because it's what you were originally goanna do and what you've got a degree in I mean you're only working at Buckland's so we can keep the house.

Prue: Which's better than losing right? Anyway I thought you were more interested in what you were doing than me.

Melissa comes out the sea carrying something she's wearing a red bikini which shows off her toned body.

Melissa: Hey whaddya think guys perfect isn't it?

She shows them an opened shell which has a pearl inside it Phoebe squeals.

Phoebe: Yes it is put it on top.

Melissa cements the pearl on top of the sand castle.

Prue:I don't get it you two.

Prue walks off Phoebe follows with Melissa behind who's ringing her wet hair out.

Melissa:Get what aunt Prue?

Prue:This you (She points to Phoebe) spend an hour of your life building something whilst Mel dives down to the depths of the ocean brings back a measly pearl and puts it on top when the whole thing will be completely destroyed and disappear in about five seconds flat.

Phoebe:Ahh but Phoebeville will live on in the hearts of the villagers forever.

Melissa: Exactly and you two told me to have more fun which's what I'm doing.

Phoebe: Yeahwhat's with the ba-hum attitude anyway? You just got married for Christ sake you should be happy.

Prue:What?

Melissa:She means why are so glum wasn'ttoday about relaxing and having fun.

Prue:See and I thought the point was to give your mom and dad some alone married people time since like Andy and me they've decided to wait on their honeymoon until the Source's vanquished.

Phoebekay so you're sure nothing's wrong?

Prue:You know the beach isn't exactly my idea of a good time.

Melissa: (Shocked) What? Oh come on aunt Prue you don't really mean that everyone loves the beach I do my adopted parents used to bring me and my brother here all the time we'd make sand castles eat ice cream swim in the sea play fussball and act like stupid kids.

Prue: Yeah well your real mom hadn't just died in your timeline and your grandma hadn'tbrought you here after her funeral to try and cheer you up.

Phoebeh my god Grams brought us here?

Prue:Yeah you wouldn't really remember because you were too young and I know you love the beach and I didn't wanna ruin it for you but something about the sand and ocean makes me angry.

Melissa:Why does it make you angry aunt Prue?

Prueidn't finding out about us been murdered and your adopted families have been killed make you and your cousins angry?

Melissa:It did but it made us feel sad also.

Prue:Well I don't do sad because I never cried at her funeral.

Phoebe:So seeing mom at yours and Piper's wedding and now the beach.

Prue:Yeah sorry if I've been a bit cranky.

Melissa: Say no more Aunt Prue.

She clears her throat then starts yelling.

Melissa: (Yelling) Princess Prue's spoken by orders of Queen Phoebe's most trusted consult me.

Prue: Oh of course.

Melissahoebeville and all its glory will be abandoned for greater pastures and three lattes?

Phoebeh the queen will definitely go for that yes.

A woman standing nearby takes photos of Prue she sees her and a black shadow floating beside her she takes a photo of it.

Prue:Hey!

The woman runs off.

Prue: No, no, no, wait!

Melissa:You okay?

Prue:Not really there was this woman with a shadow next to her it had to be demonic.

Phoebe:A shadow? What do you mean as in like a Woogy?

Melissa: The thing under the basement?

Prue:No it was spookier way spookier I got pictures of it though.

Phoebe: So much for the lattes looks like there's a new demon in town as if we haven't enough of them after us already.

Cole's Old Apartment

Two demonic Seekers and Cole's old landlady Mrs. Owens are there Seeker two floats across the room outta sight.

Mrs. Owens:So you're new in town?

Seeker One:Yes.

Mrs. OwensAnd you'd both be living here?

Seeker Two:Sure yes that's right.

The other Seeker floats across the room again but Mrs. Owens doesn't notice.

Mrs. Owensh don't get me wrong I'm fine with the whole alternative lifestyle thing I just don't like loud you understand?

Seeker Oneon't like loud gotcha.

Mrs. Owens:Like the last tenant Mr. Turner now he was a strange fellow here one minute then gone without a trace but he was nice and quiet so I liked him fine.

Seeker two opens Cole's altar.

Seeker One:Without a trace really?

Seeker Two:There's demonic residue on this altarits old been left here for sometime but it's his I sense it.

Mrs. Owens: There's what? What did you say?

Seeker OneSurely as a landlady you knew something wasn't right about your tenant living here isn't it your responsibility to divulge such things to other respective tenants.

Mrs. Owens:Now listen I don't know anything about.

Seeker One:And the fact that you failed to show us the demonic altar which would've once housed weapons makes us wonder.

He floats towards her.

Seeker One: What else about Cole Turner you might be hiding in that tiny little brain of yours.

Mrs. Owens starts crying.

Mrs. Owens: (Crying) Why? I don't understand.

Seeker Two:Shh! don't talk you're brain stem will do that for you.

He bites into the Mrs. Owens neck like a vampire she screams and falls to the ground he wipes the blood off his mouth with a handkerchief.

Seeker One: Is Belthazor alive?

Seeker Two:She didn't know anything but she knows someone who might.

Foyer

Piper and Leo are there Piper's looking in the mirror.

Piper:Shouldn't I be wearing white or something? I mean it's a white lighter reception and my first time up there.

Leoiper what you have on is perfect you're beautiful all my friends will love you if we can ever get up there.

Piper:Fine but I don't understand you and Mel have been up there loads of times now I'm going but my sisters aren't why? Can't Mel orb them after us?

Phoebe comes downstairs taking her reading glasses of with Melissa and the Book of Shadows.

Leoiper I can orb you because you're my wife and the Elders will let me take you but your sisters can't go because witches are not allowed up there except Mel whose half white lighter.

Melissa laughs.

Phoebe: What?

Melissa: Dad said wife.

Piper:Alright I'm as ready as I'll ever be.

Phoebe:Wait what about Prue's demon shadow looking thingy?

Leoon't worry we'll be in calling distance if any demon shadowy looking thing attacks I promise.

Phoebe:Alright you two have fun bring me back a cloud.

Leo and Piper cuddle up and orb out Prue walks in carrying some photos.

Prue: Alright guys I have to get to Darryl and Andy show them these photos I just got of the printer see if they can track down this woman.

Melissa:Why? What did you find?

Prue:Nothing that's the problem the shadow didn't show up in any of the pictures.

Phoebe:Really? That's weird.

Phoebe puts the book down.

Prue:Anything in the book?

Melissa: No nothing.

The doorbell rings.

Phoebe: I'll get it.

Phoebe heads towards the door.

Melissa: We really don't have much to go on.

Phoebe opens the door and there stands Reece Davidson.

Phoebe: Inspector Davidson how can I help you?

Melissa: (Whispering to Prue) Davidson the DA Guy?

Prue: (Whispering to Melissa) Yeah.

Reece:You can tell me where Cole Turner is I know he's alive and I know he's in town.

Phoebe:Really?

Reece:Yeah really you wanna know how his former landlady was found brutally murdered at his old address.

Phoebe: Mrs. Owens that's awful.

Reece:Awful like you can't imagine.

Phoebe:Uh Cole didn't do this not the Cole Turner I know.

Reece:The Cole Turner you know see now that doesn't sound like the words of a woman who claims her boyfriend left her without a word over a month ago.

Phoebe: I know what you're thinking and I know what this looks like and I'm sorry for what happened to Mrs. Owens but.

Reece:You're sorry? Her eyes were frozen open in terror her skull was punctured in two places and by the time the police got there most of her brain had spilled out onto the floor be sick be horrified but don't stand there lying to me saying you're sorry.

Melissa:Wait a sec you think she did this?

Reece:If she's lying to protect Cole Turner she might as well have yes now for the last time where's he?

Silence

Reece: Fine if you won't tell me where he is Miss Halliwell I'll just have to try find him myself and once I do I'll bust his ass then I'll bust yours.

He leaves Prue and Melissa walks over to Phoebe.

Prue:You okay?

Phoebe:He didn't do it guys I know he didn't he's good now.

Melissa:We know but it's not us you have to convince.

Prue looks outside and sees the lady at the beach talking to Reece.

Prue: Oh my god that's the woman from the beach.

A dark shadow floats behind her.

Prue: And the shadow too look does you see it?

Phoebe:No all I sees Inspector Davidson and some woman what does this mean? Is he having her follow us?

Prue: I'm more concerned about what's following her I don't understand why you two can't see it.

Melissa: It doesn't matter aunt Prue you can that's good enough.

Reece and the woman get in a car.

Phoebe: Do you think this has anything to do with Mrs. Owens death?

Prue:It'd be a pretty big coincidence if it didn't no.

The car drives off.

Prue: Alright I'm gonna follow and try and protect her from it If I'm the only one who can see it that must mean I'm meant to fight it.

Melissa:Alright but the way the Davidson described the murder.

Prue:I know I'll be careful you two find Cole tell him what happened and see if he knows anything about this shadow thing okay bye.

Prue leaves.

Phoebe: Wait how we supposed to find Cole?

Melissa: I know where.

Mausoleum

Phoebe and Melissa orb in.

Phoebe: What're we doing here it's just a dank Mausoleum.

Melissa: No its Cole's Mausoleum this is where his father was put after he was cremated over there.

She points to an old wall which has a plaque on which's barely noticeable

Phoebe: Oh wow how did you know that?

Melissa: His future self told me anyway I was worried Davidson might come back to the house and didn't wanna expose Cole there so I brought us here since Davidson doesn't know about this place okay.

She takes a piece of paper outta her pocket which she and Phoebe who puts her glasses on read.

Phoebe/Melissa: MAGIC FORCES BLACK AND WHITE REACHING OUT THROUGH SPACE AND LIGHT BE HE FAR OR BE HE NEAR BRING US THE DEMON BELTHAZOR HERE.

Smoke starts appearing in front which disappears after a while announcing Cole's arrival.

Cole: (Angry) Phoebe whaddya doing summoning me I am on the run here.

Phoebe: I'm sorry Cole but this is important your old landlady Mrs. Owens was found brutally murdered at your apartment this morning the DA guy Reece Davidson said the police saw her eyes were frozen open in terror her skull was punctured in two places and most of her brain had spilled out onto the floor obviously a demon did it which Prue thinks is a shadow thingy we thought you'd might know who.

Cole: A shadow thingy wouldn't leave two puncture marks it's obviously another demon who knows I'm alive or at least suspects that why else would it have killed Mrs. Owens and if it killed her it'll kill anyone it has to get to me which's why I'd better go.

Melissa: What? Why?

Coleecause it's getting too dangerous.

Phoebe:So you're just gonna disappear again?

Cole:If that's what it takes to keep you safe yes.

Phoebe:Andwhat about keeping me sane Cole? I'm not gonna lose you again.

Melissa puts her arm round Phoebe.

Melissa: Don't worry Aunt Phoebe you won't if he knows what's good for him Cole we need you to help us stop it before it hurts anybody else or before it hurts you.

Cole: Mel this is my battle okay not yours Prue's or Phoebe's I'll handle it.

He starts to walk away.

Phoebe:Cole.

He stops and turns back around.

Phoebe: I love you and if holding onto that means I have to fight a demon or two along the way then bring 'em on.

Cole smiles

Cole:Unfortunately we've no idea what demon we're dealing with and a strange shadow thing that only Prue can see I haven't the slightest idea what that could be.

Melissa:So we'll figure it out together alright I'll orb up there see if I can find out what this shadow thing is whilst you two focus on Mrs. Owens murder it won't bring her back but avenging her death will certainly make up for it .

San Francisco City

Its night Prue's in her BMW X5 she pulls up behind Reece's car inside it Andrea's looking through photos she took.

Andrea:I don't see anything suspicious unless you consider hot pink pedicures impressive.

Reece:I'm not sure what I think.

Womanoyou really think these women are murderers?

Reece:You just keep doing what you're doing okay.

Andrea:No because there's something you're not telling me now I may only be a rookie and all but I think I've a right to know what I'm looking for here.

Reece:Look Andrea I've seen things on this case that aren't right look I don't know what I'm looking for but until I do I want you to keep your distance and just keep following Phoebe Halliwell.

Andreakay hey why don't you take the night off and get some sleep?

Reece:No, no, no, I can't not till this is over I tell you what um dump those photos on my desk and go home you can pick them up again tomorrow.

Andrea:Reece.

Reece:That's an order.

Andrea takes off her seat belt.

Andrea: Finehave a good night.

Reece: You too goodbye.

Andrea gets out of the car and Prue follows unnoticed.

The Hall Of Elders

Melissa up there in white lighter robes is walking and talking to a short haired female blonde Elder.

Melissa: Aunt Prue saw it on the beach and then outside the house beside Davidson's partner.

Female Elder: Mmm it sounds like she saw an Angel of Death.

Melissa: An Angel of Death? So it's after Davidson's partner.

Female Elder: Probably yes as you know Melissa Angel of Deaths are neutral beings responsible for guiding those destined to die in their final days there immune to witches powers can't be vanquished and always get what they want so the cosmic balances not disturbed.

Melissa: Meaning aunt Prue has a hells chance of saving her.

Female Elder: Unfortunately yes.

Melissa: Alright I'll go down and tell her but she won't like what I say aunt Prue's not accustomed to losing innocents.

Female Elder: No one is Melissa but things happen for a reason and even though we might not like it sometimes we just have to accept them.

Melissa: But what about death how can I prove to her who he is if I can't see it.

The female Elder waves her hand over Melissa to make her see Death when he comes. (Even though Elders can't do this normally I know they've great powers which's why I made this one able to make people see what's not there so Melissa can see Death as well as Prue can)

Female Elder: Now you will for the time being.

Cole's Old Apartment

Cole shimmers in with Phoebe she sees a blood stain on the carpet.

Phoebeh God.

Cole:You okay?

Phoebe nods hesitantly.

Cole Alright try not to touch anything you don't wanna leave your fingerprints.

Phoebe:What if I wanna get a premonition?

Cole:Use the back of your hand.

Phoebe does that when touching some objects while Cole looks around the apartment and goes into the bedroom.

Phoebeid you find something?

She goes over to him.

Cole's Bedroom

Cole:Not reallyit'sjust this place it's strange been back here.

Phoebe:It's strange been back here too I know.

Cole:This was the first taste I had of a normal life there were mornings I'd wake up and think you were next to me and I didn't feel evil I was just a guy in love with a beautiful girl I wanted it so much I started to believe that lie.

Phoebe:That's not a lie Cole we can have that life together.

Cole:How?

Phoebey taking out the bad guys who wanna take it away from us.

Phoebe touches something back handed and has a premonition of the two Seekers killing Reece in a church Prue's standing nearby and turns away the premonition ends.

Cole:What did you see?

Phoeberue she turned her back why didn't she do anything to stop them?

Cole:Stop who?

Phoebe:Uh the demons they had fangs like vampires do and they were floating and killing Davidson at the same time.

Cole:I know them they're Seekers they've ways of gathering information fast really fast.

Phoebeo you know how to vanquish them?

Cole:No.

Phoebe:Well let's hope the Book of Shadows does.

Reece's Office

Andrea walks in a Seeker's there she gets a fright.

Andreah my God you startled me um you waiting for Inspector Davidson?

Seeker One:Whyyou expecting him?

Andrea:Not tonight no he's in the field.

Seeker One:Where?

Seeker two floats to the ground from the roof and lands in front Andrea.

Andrea:I'm sorry.

She sees Seeker two.

Andrea: I don't know.

Seeker One:You sure about that?

Outside Reece's Office

Prue's walking down the hallway she hears a scream and runs.

Inside Reece's Office

Andrea falls to the floor.

Seeker One:What did she know?

Seeker Two:Nothing she told me nothing.

Seeker One:Which means he definitely knows something.

Prue uses her power to knock the door down the Seekers disappear Prue notices the black shadow floating above Andrea it changes into the Angel of Death she's about to use her power on him but Melissa orbing in stops her she can now see the Angel too.

Melissa: Aunt Prue don't you can't use your powers on him

Prue: What're you talking about Mel?

Death: She means I'm beyond your powers (to Andrea) it's time.

Andrea's spirit comes out of her body.

Prue:Who're you?

Melissa: He's death.

Deathrecisely and I'll be back.

He and Andrea disappear.

Living room

Cole and Phoebe are there she's flipping through the Book of Shadows with her glasses on.

Phoebe:Here it is Seekers they gather information by feeding on their victims brain stem cells uh that's sick.

Cole:Meaning Mrs. Owens must've talked to Inspector Davidson about me that's why they're after him does it say anything about demons taking on shadow form?

Phoebe:No but it has a vanquishing spell wanna see it?

She goes to hand it to Cole but he jumps back.

Coleh, no no, no last time I touched that book it electrocuted me.

Phoebeecause your intentions were evil but now you're good it should sense that.

Coleetter safe than sorry so you've figured out how your goanna protect him?

Phoebe: Yes we get Mel to shield Davidson from the Seekers.

Cole: Well you'll have to get her to the book first though so she can see what they look like before she can cloak him.

Phoebe: I know that's why I'm calling her MEL!

They hear the front door slam Prue walks in angrily in front of Melissa.

Prue: (Angry) I can't believe you let him take her Mel.

Melissa: I had no choice aunt Prue she was meant to die.

Prue: (Angry) like hell she was.

Melissa: Look you can't stop Death okay when he comes for someone he comes for them.

Phoebe: Who're you talking about?

Melissa: The Angel of Death that's the shadow thing Prue saw and who I can see now thanks to an Elder.

Phoebe: (Shocked, Amazed) you saw The Angel of Death oh my god.

Melissa: Yeah there beings responsible for guiding those destined to die in their final days there immune to witches powers can't be vanquished and always get what they want so the cosmic balances not disturbed if it is then it's screwed up

Prue: (Angry) I don't care alright no more innocents are goanna die.

Melissa: Didn't you just hear what I said aunt Prue you can't cheat Death look I know you don't like losing an innocent I don't either but it happened it was in my future a few years before the witch trials started my best friend Suz and I were on a lunch break from San Francisco Memorial we used to go to this café across the road but on this day it was closed due to family bereavement so we went somewhere else anyway as we were walking in town and heard this commotion down an alley we went to investigate and saw a demon nearly kill an innocent so I froze it and the energy ball it was about to throw and Suz said a spell which deflected the ball back to the demon vanquishing it of course what the man saw shock him up and he started having an asthma attack his inhaler was damaged and my white lighter Nick wasn't answering so we took him to hospital where his asthma worsened I gave him oxygen fluids and electrolyte replacement but it didn't work and he died me and the doctors thought he had an underlying problem but subsequent tests proved otherwise which I thought was strange because I'd given him the right treatment so he should've been alive turns out he was meant to die but because me an Suz intervened we created an imbalance which's why his asthma was worsened to correct that naturally we were angry and couldn't understand why he had to die but in the end we just had to accept it now you can try and save as many innocents as possible but he'll always come back and if you're not careful you could be next on his list.

Prue: Unlikely.

Melissa: Okay you may not care about your life at the moment but there are other people who sure as hell do now did you two find anything on Mrs. Owens murder?

Phoebe: Yes we did here.

She shows them the book.

Melissa: Seekers?

Phoebe:Yeahthey're demonic lie detectors only no one survives their test.

Cole:They killed Mrs. Owens and are now after Davidson.

Melissa: Oh no.

Prue:To get to you?

Cole:Yes to get to me.

Silence

Phoebe: This's why we want you to shield Davidson from the Seekers.

Melissa: I can't do that I'm sorry.

Prue: (Angry) What? Why not?

Melissa: Because of what I just said before that's why.

Cole: Okay maybe I should deal with this on my own.

Cole stands up.

Phoebe:No.

Phoebe stands up.

Phoebe: You can't you said it yourself you don't know how to vanquish them but my sisters and I do with this spell.

Prue:Um unfortunately there not the only evil we're up against.

Melissa: Aunt Prue the Angel of Deaths neither good nor evil he's just neutral.

Prue: (Angry) like hell he isn't LEO! LEO!

Leo and Piper orb in Leo's holding a crystal lamp.

Phoebe:What's with the lamp?

Leo:A wedding present.

Leo grins Piper doesn't look impressed.

Piperright isn't it?

Prue:Yeah Leo listen I need to know how to vanquish Death I mean the Angel of Death.

Leo: Prue you can't vanquish Death there immortal.

Melissa: That's what I told her.

Prue: (Angry) Well there's gotta be something that'll get him I'm not letting him get Davidson and don't any of you tell me I can't stop him I don't wanna hear it alright first thing I need to do's get a hold of Davidson If I can get him here I can protect him better.

Piperavidson? Wait as in Reece Davidson the D.A. investigator? He's the innocent?

Prue:Yeah is that a problem?

Pipernlyone big great giant one Prue we can't protect him without telling him we're witches.

Prue:Yeah I know Piper but I don't care alright I-I can't just stand by and watch Death take that man.

Phoebeut that's what you do at least according to my premonition you turn your back when the demons attack.

Prue:No, that doesn't make any sense.

Phoebe:I know but that's what I saw.

Prue:Yeah well you saw wrong then I'm not gonna let Death take any more of my innocents I'm tired of losing people so Phoebe does you've Davidson's card?

Phoebe:Mm-hm.

Phoebe leaves the room.

Cole:Excuse me.

Melissa sees a look on Cole's face as he walks out of the room she follows and sees him shimmer out the room.

Hallway

Melissa: Dammit it Cole.

She senses where he went and orbs after him.

Reece's Office

Paramedics cover Andrea over an inspectors talking to Reece.

Reece: I thought I was protecting her.

Inspector: You alright Inspector?

Reece:I should've warned her I should've told her everything.

Inspector:Told her what Inspector?

Melissa hears something.

Melissa: Wait I hear something.

Cole: What?

Melissa senses what she hears and finds the Seekers.

Melissa: The Seekers there round the corner.

Cole and Reece shimmer in followed by Melissa orbing.

Melissa: Cole what're we doing here?

Cole: Protecting Davidson It's much harder for them to track my shimmer in a cemetery.

Melissa: You know Deaths after him right?

Cole: Yes but if I let them get him they'll find me out and if death gets him they'll go after Phoebe which I won't let happen.

Reece:How did we get here? What the hell's happening to me?

Cole:Just breathe and try to calm down okay.

Reece:Who're you and you? (He points to Melissa)

Melissa: The good guys Inspector.

Reece freaks out and backs away from them.

Cole: Try and calm down if I were a murderer I would've killed you by now.

Reece:Just-just-just let me go and I'll just walk away.

Cole:I can't let the demons come after you I'm sorry.

Reeceidyou say demons?

Colenly as a metaphor.

Living Room

Leo places the lamp on a table Prue's waiting near the phone.

Prue: Okay Davidson's not answering his pager something must've happened to him.

Phoebe comes downstairs and walks into the lounge.

PhoebeWorried) Cole and Mel have gone.

Leo:What do you mean gone?

Phoebe:I mean there not here I've looked everywhere he must've gone after Davidson to protect us and she followed him.

PiperWorried)Yeah but if the Seekers get to them first.

Prue:We've gotta get them to bring Davidson back here.

Phoebe:The Mausoleum they could've taken him to the Mausoleum.

Piper: Mausoleum? What Mausoleum?

Phoebe: The one where's Cole's father was put after he was cremated Mel showed me it this morning.

Piper: Is there any chance that's where you saw the Inspector die in your premonition?

Phoebe:Maybe.

Prue: Do you know where it is?

Phoebe: Yes.

Piper: Alright let's go.

Prue: No I'll go Davidson's my responsibility not yours.

Leo:You can't go by yourselfif the demons show up you can't vanquish them without the power of three spell.

Prue:So I won't vanquish them then I'll just protect Reece long enough to get him outta there.

Phoeberue we're not letting you do this.

Prue: SorryPheebs but you don't have a choice.

Phoebe looks worried.

Prue: Don't worry sis your premonitions not gonna come true I told you this' one fight Deaths not gonna win not if I have anything to do with it.

Piper: Prue.

Phoebe: Prue.

Mausoleum

Cole:The Seekers could use what I know to destroy you.

Melissa: Yes.

Leo:AlrightI'd better check with the Elders this' getting complicated.

Reece starts to wake up and he sees Leo orb out he freaks out.

Prue:Uh Inspector you hit your head.

Death:No you summoned and wanted me here now you've got me and you're wasting precious time.

Prue:I'm sorry.

Death: It's not my time you're wasting it's yours you refuse to accept me for what I am which keeps you from mourning me.

Prue:You don't know anything about me.

Death:No but I've seen it so many times before the anger the pain you lock up your tears and angrily steal yourself against me as if I was the ultimate evil.

Prue:You are the ultimate evil.

Death:No I'm not I'm neither good nor evil I just am I'm inevitable.

Prue:What do I have to do to save Davidson?

Death:Huh you still don't get it do you even after everything you niece said why do you think she didn't cloak him mmm? Because she knows it's his time and has accepted that why can't you?

Verse

Send all your time waiting for that second chance for a break that would make it okay
There's always some reason to feel not good enough and it's hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction oh a beautiful release
Memories seep from my brain let me be empty oh and weightless and maybe
I'll find some peace tonight

Chorus

In the arms of the angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear
You're pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel may you find...some comfort here

Verse

So tired of the straight line that everywhere you turn
There's vultures and thieves at your back storm keeps on twisting keep on building the lies
That you make up for all that you lack it don't make no difference escaping one last time
It's easier to believe In this sweet madness oh this glorious sadness
That brings me to my knees

Chorus

In the arms of the angel fly away from here from this dark cold hotel room and the endlessness that you fear
You're pulled from the wreckage of your silent reverie
You're in the arms of the angel may you find...some comfort here
You're in the arms of the angel may you find...some comfort here

San Francisco Beach Sunday Twenty First February

Prue's sitting on some rocks looking out at the water Death appears in front of her.

Death:Contemplating the tides? You can't control them anymore than you can me.

Pruekay I get that you're not evil but what I don't gets why I wasn't supposed to fight the demons.

Deathecause you were alone and out numbered.

Prue:I still could've fought.

Deathut you would've lost Prue.

Prue:How do you know that?

Death: Because you were next on my list after Reece Davidson.

Prue:You were coming for me?

Death:If you hadn't stopped fighting me yes and then I'd have gone after one of your sisters who tried to fight me that's why you were able to see me freely and not without a magical assist like your niece It's the bigger picture Prue focusing all your anger against me leaves you vulnerable to the real evils of this world you and your sisters had do well to remember that in the future what?

Prue:I don't know I've been mad at you for so long ever since mom died I don't know how else to be.

Death:You grieve and then you move on.

Death disappears as Prue sits there and cries.

The End.
