Prue Halliwell sat cross legged on her bed with the big book of shadows in front of her. They had just fought off another scary demon and kicked his demon booty to hell. Now she was entering him in the BOS. She was so tired of getting phone calls from one of her little sister’s calling her in a panic because their life was on the line. She loved being a witch most of the time until one of her sister’s was hurt. Today had been no different Prue had been at a photo shoot when her cell phone started ringing in her purse causing her to leave her shoot early and go down to her sister’s club to find Piper laying on the ground with blood running down her head. Phoebe was backed into a corner. Prue managed to save their butts and get them home. Now Piper was napping and Phoebe was studying for her mid terms coming up. The worst part was that Leo was away on assignment and if the injury wasn’t life threatening they would be on their own no white lighter. Now Prue had to check her sister’s for injuries and make sure they were handled correctly.
Prue shut the book and just prayed the demon world would leave them alone for a few days. They all needed a break.
Piper knocked on Prue’s door distracting her of her thoughts. “Come in Piper” Prue said shoving the book under her bed. She knew Piper was tired of this witch stuff and the BOS would be the last thing she would want to see.
“How did you know it was me” Piper asked crawling onto her big sister’s bed. Prue smiled. “Cause I know you” Piper nodded “Right I forgot” She said attempting to make a joke.
Prue rolled her eyes “I think your head harder then I thought you did” Piper giggled.
“So what’s up Piper do you feel ok” Piper nodded “Kind of my head hurts but the room has stopped spinning” “Piper I know you were lying down but you didn’t sleep right” Prue suddenly realized she could have a concussion she silently cursed herself for letting her lie down in the first place. “No I am ok Prue and I was just laying there missing my husband. Prue gave Piper a quick pat on the back. “I am sorry angel” Piper shrugged “Nothing you can do about it. It’s just another aspect of our lives that bites”
“What bites?” a voice said from the door way. Prue patted the bed telling the youngest Halliwell to join them. Phoebe did right away she crawled onto the bed and snuggled up as close to Prue as she could. She looked at Piper waiting for her answer. “Oh you know our lives” Phoebe nodded “Right that it does at times. But not most of the time but Piper don’t think that way I really hate it when you think that way” Piper giggled “Sorry Phoebes I am just thinking about my head that hurts like an SOB” Phoebe traced her fingers across Piper’s scab causing Piper to flinch slightly. “Yeah you did get a pretty nice shiner huh” Prue giggled. “Come on guys lets go get dinner” Prue said ushering her little sisters out of the room.
Later that night Piper was curled up next to Phoebe on the couch watching some made of TV movie while Prue sat up stairs on her big bed curled up in the arms of the man she loved now. Bane. Bane was an ex con who had been let out for good behavior. He came back into their lives at the time Piper was a giant five year old. Bane has proved him self trust worthy to Prue when she saw Bane take care of her young sister. She knew he was a keeper. “Bane I need to get away. I and my sister’s need a break and I have done all the budgeting and figuring and I have decided we as a family have an enough money to go on a cruise and I was wondering if you would like to go?” Bane ran his hands over Prue’s hair. “I would love to do that” Prue pulled herself away from him and turned around so she had direct eye contact with him. “You mean it” Her eyes were dancing with joy. Bane laughed and brought his mouth to hers with out words answering her question. “Mmm great uh we need to uh tell uh my sisters” Prue said in between each kiss. Bane reluctantly let his grip on her go. “Ok let’s go tell them then and then maybe get back to what we started” Prue blushed “I think we could do that”
“NO WAY REALLY” Phoebe squealed throwing her arms around Prue’s neck right after Prue finished telling her, her idea. “I take that as you want to go” Prue said winking at her. Phoebe hopped down on one foot. “Uh huh uh huh I do I do” Prue giggled “Ok Phoebe calm down don’t bounce through the roof please” Phoebe smiled and squealed as she fell back on to the couch. Prue’s eyes went to Piper who didn’t look too pleased about the idea. “What’s wrong Piper do you not want to go” Prue asked sitting down on the coffee table so she was directly in front of Piper. Piper sighed and shook her head. “No I do want to go that’s the problem. But what about my club and what about demons” Prue shrugged and leaned over and brought her finger tips to Piper’s hair line where the beginning of the wound she had gotten today fighting for her life. “Piper we need this we need a break. Your club will be fine that’s why you have a manager and I do say so my self Monica is a great manager” Piper rolled her eyes. She had been up in elder land with Leo for a month when Prue hired her. But Prue was right she was awesome. “Ok and moving on Demons are the least of our worries babe I am going to demand to the elders we get a super natural break or I am binding our powers” Prue automatically put her hand on Phoebe’s knee to keep her from saying anything. Piper’s smile got wider and brighter as she thought about this. You mean for two weeks we get to be normal people?” Prue nodded “Yes normal people” Piper flung her self at Prue wrapping her tiny arms around Prue’s neck. Prue was slightly thrown off balance by the sudden weight but she recovered quickly and held Piper in a tight hug for a few seconds. “So I take it as you want to go too” Piper nodded and Phoebe squealed again. Bane shared a silent wink with Prue.
No one expecting the troubles that lay ahead. Even normal people come across something evil not super natural related….

“Phoebe calm down” Prue hissed at her sister who was bouncing in her seat. They were on their way to their wonderful cruise. Phoebe had everyone up at the crack of dawn. Now Piper was in a horrible mood. Piper’s head still had an injury from the demon four days ago and she claimed it still hurt every now and then. Prue didn’t doubt it. Now she looked at it was a deep head wound and on little sleep Piper was just cranky. “But Prue I can’t help it. I am so excited sun and fun and we are stopping in Hawaii and more sun and fun and boys boys boys” Prue rolled her eyes. Piper scoffed “I don’t need boys I have a husband” Prue could tell that Piper was purposely trying to push Phoebe’s buttons now. Probably for waking them up so early. Bane chuckled “Hey guys none of that no cat fights in the car besides we are here” Bane said parking his car.
An hour later the sister’s and Bane were checked in and putting their bags in their rooms before going up deck to wave at people as they departed. Phoebe had demanded that Darryl come and waved at them.
“Prue why do I got to share a bedroom with her” Piper whined as she watched Phoebe hop from bed to bed trying to figure out which one was softer. Prue giggled. “Cause I got Bane” Prue said poking her head out of her room that was connected to theirs. “Phoebe pick a bed now” Prue used her best no nonsense voice. Phoebe instantly dropped on one bed. “Ok I take this one” Prue nodded “Ok” Piper flopped onto the other bed. “Thank God” Prue rolled her eyes. “What is up with you two? You have been bickering for three days now” Phoebe shrugged “I am fine she is the one who has been snapping at me for nothing” Prue looked at Piper. Piper just shrugged her shoulders. “Prue this shelf is for you” Bane called from in the room. “oh my boy toy needs me to un pack. I am shutting this door I’ll meet you in ten minutes. Please do not kill each other” Phoebe nodded “Don’t worry I won’t hurt her I can’t promise the same about her” Piper slammed the dresser drawer she was putting her tank tops in. “Phoebe Marie when have I ever hurt you?”
Phoebe held her hands up. “Whoa babe I was just teasing you relax” Prue rolled her eyes one more time. She hoped Piper would take a nap later and calm down. She knew she was upset about Leo being gone and her head did hurt and she was tired so she didn’t blame her for being cranky.
Phoebe hastily threw things in drawers and fell back on her bed and began to hum. “Piper I am bored” She whined less the five seconds later. Piper rolled her eyes. “go for a walk honey and come back in ten minutes so Prue does not have a heart attack. We may be adults but she has rules for us for this trip due to us being witches” Phoebe nodded “Ok but I thought she talked to the elders about making sure that we would be left alone” Piper nodded “She did but they could not guarantee us one hundred percent protection. And it’s Prue need I say more” Phoebe shook her head “No I’ll be back in ten minutes” Piper smiled at the thought of having ten minutes of silence. Phoebe left the room and Piper quickly put her stuff away then moved over to Phoebe’s side of the room and re put away neatly. She loved her little sister more then life it’s self but sometimes Phoebe drove her insane.
Phoebe burst into the room and hopped on the bed Piper was now reading a book on. “You’re late” Phoebe nodded “I know I know but I was just talking to Sara Michelle Geller at the soda machine. Piper we are on a cruise with a couple different famous people. I ran into Sarah-Michelle at the pop machine it wouldn’t take her dollar so I helped her out and she liked my sandals and Capri’s so we started talking. I never once acted like someone famous I was all casual and we started talking and get this Bill Cosby walks bye and greets us both bye saying we have great smiles he saw them a mile away. Well Sara-Michelle was actually in shock. She was amazed after he left she told me that this cruise was full of people in her line of work. So far she has seen Drew Barrymore Joey McIntire and Faith Hill with her Tim Mcgraw and their girls and Sharon and Ozzy Osbourn.” Piper smiled and blushed “Great famous people this is just what we need I hope nothing Freaky Deaky happens” “Me too Sarah-Michelle is on her own Freddy is doing something and I told her I was alone in that department this cruise I did mention I was sharing a room with you but anyways Sara-Michelle and I thought it would be cool to meet up later tonight at dinner and may go dancing or something” Piper smiled “Great honey” Phoebe nodded “But Piper I have not told you the best part for you. I passed Marie Osmond and her family. Piper your all time favorite is here” Piper’s smile grew. Marie had always been her favorite even as a child. “Cool” Phoebe nodded and hopped off of Piper’s bed to go to Prue’s room to tell her about the famous people.
Piper began to think. A cruise full of people some being famous they would be stuck on a ship with these people for two weeks minus small stops there was going to be no way out. Now she was really praying their lives would stay quiet. She never once thought about a non magic disaster happening. Had she might be a little more prepared for what was coming next.
Piper laid sun bathing on a deck chair. Phoebe and Sarah-Michelle were off doing something together. The two had become very close and spent a lot of time together. It was great to Phoebe so happy and stress free with out school work. Prue and Bane were swimming. Right now Piper was watching as Bane was trying to edge Prue away from the wall. But Prue being stubborn and hating water was not having any part of this. Piper found this all amusing but she felt some what lonely right now because right now she could be swimming with her own husband.


Prue kissed Bane and cast a quick glance at her sister who was pretending to read a book. Prue sighed. Bane looked up to see what Prue was looking at. “You worrying about her huh” Prue nodded “Yeah, she is lonely she won’t say it out loud but she is lonely” Bane nodded again. “Why don’t the two of you go do something I want to go up the arcade anyways” Prue nodded “Ok that is a great idea? Meet up with you at five for dinner?” “I will see you then” Bane kissed her one last time before crawling out of the pool. She wrapped her towel around her waist and plopped down on the same chair Piper was sitting on. “eww Prue you are getting me all wet.” Prue ignored her and kissed her cheek. “You know you love me” Piper pretended to think about earning another wet kiss on her cheek. “OK EWW” Piper screeched. She set her book down. “Hey where did your boy toy go off to?” Piper asked as she moved over a tiny bit so Prue could squeeze in a little better.
“Oh he went to be a big kid and went into the arcade” Piper giggled. “So what are you doing now” Prue tapped her sister’s nose “I am going to spend sometime with my favorite Piper” Piper rolled her eyes “You are so lame” Prue poked Piper in the ribs causing her to squeal. “Hey stop that.”
“Come on Piper lets go do something” Prue said getting up. Piper nodded “Something dry preferably” Prue giggled. “Sure thing kiddo sure thing”
Later that night Prue and Bane were dancing the night away. Phoebe Sarah-Michelle and Drew Barrymore were all doing something. Piper was worried all the special attention Phoebe was getting was going to start going to her head.
Piper starred into the ocean as the ship sailed smoothly in the water. She could help but think about how much Leo would love this right now.
“It’s beautiful huh” a deep voice said from behind Piper. Piper turned around to see a man standing there. He looked a lot like Dan but his chin was not as detailed. “Yeah it’s pretty out there” She said quietly. “What is a beautiful woman like you doing all alone” Piper shrugged “My husband is away on business and my sister’s are with their friends or lover” The guy looked glum for half a second. “I should have known a babe like you would be taken already” Piper blushed. “oh sorry I did not meant to make you blush” Piper giggled “Don’t worry about it I blush all the time” “Well blush my name is Erick what is your name” “Piper” “Piper wow that is unique” Piper blushed again. “Thanks” Erick nodded “No problem. I know you are married and all but would you like to hang out with me tonight I am semi bored” Piper got the chills but pushed them away when she saw the puppy dog face the guy had. “Ok let’s go get some ice cream” Erick nodded and led Piper away.
Phoebe looked up at the clock when she heard the door open. “Piper it’s two am I am telling Prue” Phoebe groaned. Piper shrugged her shoulders and crawled into her bed with out bothering to change. “I am wiped Phoebe can you lecture me in the morning or tattle on me in the morning”
Phoebe rolled her eyes and put her head back on her pillow. Then next morning Phoebe was up before Piper. So she quietly left the room and went around to Prue’s other door to knock on it. Prue opened already dressed and ready to start a vacation. “Aught Prue this a vacation why are you up so early” Prue just smiled “Your up early too sweetheart”
Phoebe giggled “Well you got me there but anyways I am here to talk about Piper. Prue she broke your curfew rule” Prue knew her sister’s were grown ups but they were on a ship where anything could happen and being endanger all the time she wanted them in their room at mid night.
Prue raised her eye brows. “She did?” “Uh huh she came in at two am”
Prue followed Phoebe back to her room in time to see Piper getting out of bed. “Hey where were you last night and why did you not change into your pjs”
Piper shrugged “I was with a friend last night I am aloud to have friends too”
Seconds later a knock draws the attention away from the tension building up in the room. Piper opened the door. “Erick hi” “Hi I was thinking we could have breakfast together” Prue and Phoebe studied Erick while Piper pulled her hair up into a pony tail. “Great but before we go to the art room after breakfast I am coming back here to shower and change” Erick nodded and with out a good bye to her sister’s she left the room. “Um Prue that guy creeps me out” Prue nodded “That’s what I was thinking” Prue said seriously.

Prue watched as her sister sat talking to Erick in the pool. They were not flirting with each other or anything. They were just talking as if they had been friends for years. But Prue couldn’t put her finger on it something about him bugged her. “Hey you look distracted worried about something are you ok?” A voice Prue did know said from beside her. She looked over and nearly fell off of her chair. Marie Osmond and her baby were sitting next to her. “Oh um wow you scared me.” Prue said collecting her self. Marie chuckled. “Sorry but I have noticed that you look upset. I know it’s none of my business but I just wanted to see if you were ok” Prue coughed. “Yeah I am ok. My sister has gone nuts on the other hand” Marie’s eye followed Prue’s. “Is your sister the one in the purple bathing suit with that guy” Prue nodded. “Yup that would be my Piper. And that guy she just met. I know she is bummed her husband is not here, and I want her to make friends on this cruise but this guy totally creeps me out” Marie nodded. “Well do you trust your sister?” Prue nodded. “Yes I do. Piper is the smartest person I know. But you see I helped raise Piper and my other sister Phoebe when my mom died. So it’s like my little girl out there” Prue blushed “I can not believe I just told you that” Marie shrugged her shoulders and kissed her gurgling baby. “Don’t be sorry I like talking to people and getting to know them. But one thing I learned from being a parent is you got to trust your kids to use the knowledge you shared with them. And if you trust Piper and feel that you have raised her in the best way you could. She should be fine.” Prue nodded and smiled at the baby. “Hi cutie pie” “Thanks I will”
Seconds later Piper ran over to Prue and flopped down on her sister. Repaying her for the day before when Prue had got her wet. “Hi Prue” Prue groaned. “Augh Piper you soaking wet.” Piper nodded. “Yeah pay backs are a bi…Ouch” Prue had jabbed Piper in the ribs. “Piper look who I am talking to.” Piper looked up and blushed. “Um hi Marie” Marie giggled. “Hi”
“PIPER LETS GO GET LUNCH” Erick yelled. He tapped his foot and waited for her to come to him. Marie saw this and held back a comment. Piper kissed her sister. “I’ll see you at dinner time.” Prue nodded and let her sister go. “Ok I see what you mean about that guy being a creep” Prue nodded “And if I said anything she is going to have a freak attack. Piper hates being babied.”
“Hello I have 7 older brothers. I think I get it. Just give her some time. This a ship it’s not like she can go anywhere. Besides I’ll keep my eye on her” Prue smiled “Thanks that means a lot to me” “Prue Prue” Phoebe and Sarah-Michelle came towards her. “Bane is having an arm wrestling match with Bill Cosby and Bill’s winning. You have to come watch it” “Oh sounds like fun I think Abby and I have to go watch too” Marie said getting up and following Prue and the other girls back to the table where there was in fact arm wrestling match.

Dinner that night ran smoothly Every one was in a great mood. It seemed like all the families on the ship had decided to have dinner at the same time the place was packed and loud but mostly with laughter. Piper looked around. She could see the Osbourn’s having a chaotic dinner. She saw Marie’s family talking and eating with her kids being very well behaved. She saw Bill and his wife at another table and Sarah-Michelle and Drew Barrymore were eating dinner with Joey McIntire and were waiting quietly for Phoebe to be done with her family dinner. Bane and Prue were lost in conversation. Phoebe was eating quietly. Piper could hear a table next to her with a little girl singing her “ABC’S” Erick told her they would go swimming after dinner she couldn’t wait. To see him he was fun to be around but not in the romantic way. She liked him as a friend.
So she picked at her food for a few minutes until she heard the sound of doors locking. “ALL RIGHT EVERYONE NO ONE MOVE AND NO ONE GETS HURT” Piper felt the blood rush from her face and she dropped her fork.

Prue’s mouth hung open. She wanted nothing more then want her sister to freeze the whole place so they could throw these jerks over bored but the elders had their powers on hold unless they came across a demon and this was not looking demon related. Prue checked on each of her sister’s with her eyes. Phoebe had lost all the color from her face and sat frozen. Piper on the other hand looked like she was going to loose the dinner she had just eaten. Bane looked ready to kill one of those guys but she knew he was restraining because of all the kids in the dining room. Prue was the most worried about Piper because one of the guys was none other then Erick. Prue wanted kill that bastard.
Prue’s eyes darted over to Marie who at the same time looked up at her. They shared a secret look. The look said. “Dang it WE should have trusted our guts. But we got to stay strong for our families. Prue felt so bad for her. She looked over at her eight beautiful children ranging from twenty to one. Prue’s eyes checked the rest of the people in the room. Drew Barrymore looked close to tears. Billy Cosby was holding on to the side of the table with his hands gripping the end of the table. His knuckles were turning white. Sarah-Michelle was biting her lip but she looked to be holding up pretty well. Sharon Osbourn was glaring at the guy with the gun but her mouth was clamped tightly shut. Prue could tell she wanted to tear into that guy brutally cutting him with her words. Which could be harsh, Ozzy looked relaxed like nothing out of the normal was happening. But Prue knew he was doing it for Sharon’s sake.
Other people were quiet some were silently crying. Some kids were clinging tightly to their parents. The whole scene made Prue sick to her stomach.
Prue stomach churned even more when she saw Erick approaching her table. He quickly pulled Piper to her feet and kissed her cheek in front of everyone. Prue could see every muscle in her little sister’s body tense up.
“You were the first person who was ever nice to me Piper for more then my looks. You are going to be my Princess”
Phoebe’s eyes got wider and she looked at Prue. Telling her to do something with her eyes, for the first time ever Prue felt helpless she could not endanger everyone on this ships life for Piper’s they had to stay calm that was the way to ensure more safety.
Erick guided Piper away from the table. And brought her over to the other guys. Prue quickly counted there was six men seven including Erick with gun. Prue looked over at Marie again. Marie looked a little panicked now that one of the guys had a hostage so to speak. She gave Prue a small smile telling her she was praying for her and to stay CALM and don’t do anything stupid. Prue nodded in understandment.
“Ok EVERYONE listen up” “No one is leaving this room and no one is coming in until we dock. SO make yourselves at home. So to speak.”
Prue looked around. She noticed a small men’s room and a small women’s room. There was roughly a hundred and fifty people in this small room. And they would not be docking for two days yet.
Prue knew the next two days were going to be hell. But she didn’t know how so much so.

Phoebe sat quietly trying to eat her mashed potatoes she put them in her mouth and could not taste it. It was just a texture in her mouth. The guys with guns told them to finish their dinners and go back to their friendly chit chat around the table. Prue had insisted that Phoebe eat all of her dinner. Because she had no clue when they would eat again and she knew Phoebe had one of those stomachs that needed to be kept full all of the times. Or she became very cranky followed by getting to her stomach. Now she was wishing she had not been a been a pig in the buffet line. She still had chicken salad clam chowder and mashed potatoes to eat. Phoebe’s eyes made their way over to where Piper was sitting on Erick’s lap. He was stroking her hair lovingly. Phoebe could see how tense her sister was. It was like looking at a statue who looked ready to cry. Piper’s eyes were staring at the ground. As if she was trying to burn a whole through the carpet. Phoebe wanted to hold her sister and tell her she loved her.
Bane sat rubbing Prue’s shoulders while she tried to eat her own dinner. She wanted to kill Erick. She wished now more then ever that she had followed her gut and not let Piper near this jerk. She should have kept Piper close to her. If she had this guy would not have her little sister right now. Prue’s eye quickly dashed over to Phoebe to see how she was doing. She felt her heart break. Phoebe was trying to eat but was not succeeding at it. She had silent tears streaming down her. Prue sighed and for the first time all evening she was thankful for something. The men said they could move around a bit as long as know one tried anything funny. “Phoebe” Prue said getting her attention. “Come here Pheebes” She said holding her arms out to her.
Phoebe scanned the room. She didn’t want anyone to think she was a baby. But she noticed people crying and some clinging tightly to others and she wanted Prue so she gave up and ran over to her arms. She hugged her tight before sitting on her lap. “Prue I am scared” Phoebe managed to whimper. “I know sweets I know but you can be brave for Piper’s sake right” Prue said talking to Phoebe as if she were five instead of twenty five. She knew Phoebe needed Prue to do this too. Bane kept rubbing Prue’s shoulders while Prue whispered loving things into Phoebe’s ears.
They were interrupted ten minutes later when Erick approached with Piper. “My princess says she wants to finish her dinner with her family. I think that is fine I have some things to do anyways. I’ll be back for her later.” He ran his down her back under dress and stopped when he got to her bra. “Well this is going to be the first to go” He said snapping it. Causing Piper to jump a little bit. “We will have fun later princess” He kissed the top of her head and walked away.
Phoebe got off of Prue’s lap and went back to her chair. Piper looked up at Prue who had her arms open to her. Piper didn’t even have to think twice about it. She was in her sister’s arms in less then two seconds. She was crying. “Prue I am so scared he is going to rape me and there is nothing we can do about it” Prue wiped away the tear and kissed her cheek. “Don’t think like that Piper” Piper nodded. “Oh uh why don’t you go eat your dinner honey you have eaten like three bites and nothing all day long as far as I know” Piper nodded “Ok” She moved back to her spot at the table. Phoebe placed her hand on her knee. “I love you” Piper gave her a weak smile “Love you too”
After a half an hour more of eating time the men in charge of this hostage situation brought a big bin around for people to their plates in. Once all the dishes were gone another guy went around the room guiding people to push their table backs to the walls. Creating a big open space “This is where you guys will be sleeping” Another guy came in with a big box. “Here’s some chips and stuff if you get hungry and help yourself to the soda fountains”
Piper and Phoebe were leaning on Prue watching mother’s try to make beds out of coats and stuff for their children.
Sharon Osbourn jumped to her feet all of sudden and used the best shrill voice she could. “Hey ass holes if you are going to keep us here against our wills we need blankets and pillows. The children are freezing and the elderly too” A couple of people clapped for her. Ozzy on the other hand put his hand on Sharon’s leg and tried to pull her to the ground next to him.
One of the guys held a gun on her. “You think you are all that because you are famous but let me tell you something your not in charge right now”
Piper knew all the guys knew she was off limits. She knew she had to do something so she too stood up. She felt Prue pulling on her leg but she ignored her. “No leave her alone. She’s right the kids do need blankets and pillows as well as the elderly.” The guy nodded “Yes Piper”
Piper was amazed at how the guy listened to her. With in twenty minutes there was enough pillows and blankets for everyone in the room.
Erick came over and collect his prize possession and made Piper go over with him and the guys for awhile.
People started making beds for their families. Marie ended up inching her family closer to Prue Phoebe and Bane. She got all her kids laying down telling them just to lay still and not to worry mommy was there. She sat on hew own blanket which over lapped onto Prue’s. “We have to try and figure out a plan.” Prue nodded. “I agree” Sharon left Ozzy for awhile and joined Marie and Prue. “Marie I am sorry your kids are seeing this” Marie smiled up at her. “Thanks Sharon” Sharon sat on Marie’s blanket. “Something has to be done” Prue nodded “That’s my sister that guy is caressing so I do agree with you”
Phoebe had crawled over to Sarah-Michelle and Drew to see how they were doing. After quick hugs the three of them noticed that Prue Sharon and Marie were in deep discussion. To everyone it looked like they were just talking but Phoebe knew better. “Come on guys I think my sister is thinking up some plan” Sarah-Michelle raised her eye brow. “Um Phoebe they just look like they are talking” Phoebe shook her head. “No there is more I can tell. I know my sister’s eyes by now. I have seen that look in her eyes before. Manley when she was thinking about how to punish me” Drew laughed and quickly cover her mouth. “Sorry Phoebe but I could just see you being the kid that kind of got in trouble” Phoebe rolled her eyes. “Kind of is an understatement Drew. Now come on lets go over there” Sarah-Michelle agreed and started to crawl over. Drew looked a little nervous at firs but not wanting to be left alone crawled over with her new friends.
Prue looked up and smiled when she saw the girls coming over. “Hi honey” she said softly to Phoebe. Phoebe looked so small right now. So scared Phoebe hardly ever got scared but when she did it always made her look as if she was five instead of an adult. Phoebe crawled over to Prue and crawled onto her lap. Prue kissed her head. “How you doing peanut” Phoebe shrugged. “I am ok as can be expected with my big sister being groped on the other side of this room. But I will be a little better when you start to fill me in on your plan” Sharon giggled. “She’s a smart one” Prue smiled and brushed some of Phoebe’s hair away from her face. “That she is that’s why we keep her around” Phoebe pretended to be mad for half a second before she flashed Prue her award winning smile. Marie smiled. “Looks like she’s got an Osmond smile” she said referring to Phoebe’s perfect teeth smile. “It better be considering the amount of money I spent on her braces” Phoebe smacked her sister.
Prue began talking to the girls around her but her eyes made their way over to Piper. She was in a straddled position on Erick’s lap while he bit her neck and ran his fingers up her spine. Her shirt was almost off. Prue could tell that Piper was mortified and was having trouble breathing she was so scared. Yet her sister was so brave to put up with all of that just for the people in this room. “I am going to kill him” Prue muttered under her breath.
Phoebe’s eyes followed where Prue had an ice glare stare at. She gasped. Prue quickly tightened her grip on her sister. Sharon looked over to “Pig I swear dirty pig bastards”
Prue sighed again “She’s going to start hyperventilating any second.” Phoebe nodded “Yeah she is um Prue maybe we should try and call Leo” Prue shot a glare at her. “Wait you have a cell phone” Drew asked. Prue shook her head. “No sorry honey that’s the problem we DON’T” Prue said tapping Phoebe’s nose and shaking her head at her. Phoebe sighed. “Fine but you look over at your sister and tell me you are just going to sit here and let her be tortured” Prue sighed. “No I don’t want to sit here and watch her but right now we don’t have a choice honey there are to many kids in her to try anything and don’t you think of try any of your martial arts junk on them either” “Hey it’s not junk you know for a fact it’s saved me before” Prue nodded “I know but there six of them and only one of you and like a forty five kids in this room and the rest all innocents” Prue said making sure Phoebe got her point” Phoebe growled “Yeah what ever Prue” Phoebe said crossing her arms over her chest.
Prue rolled her eyes “Are you tired now Phoebe?”
Phoebe felt the blood rush to her face. There were four celebs listening to her and Prue talk to her if she were five. “No Prue I am not tired” “Well then quit acting like it” Phoebe rolled her own eyes. “Shut up PRUE” Prue smacked Phoebe’s leg. “Hey watch it girlie”
“So how do we help your sister” Sarah-Michelle asked trying to break up a fight that was brewing, “Do you think there is away we can try and get him to bring her over here for awhile so we can at least can get her calmed down a bit” Sharon added. “Yeah she seems to have some pretty good lee way with those guys” Marie added. “Yeah she was amazing getting us all of these blankets” Drew added. Prue bit her lip “Ok I got a small idea. You guys stay HERE and Phoebe you stay with them I mean it” Prue said with her best no nonsense voice” Phoebe was about to protest but Prue put her fingers to her sister’s lips. “Nope not uh” Phoebe sighed and closed her mouth. Prue untangled her self from her sister and got up. She took several deep breaths before going over to her sister.
Erick now had Piper’s shirt completely off as well as her bra. He was sucking on her breasts as hard as he could. Piper was completely red and stiff. Prue scratched her cheek right around her mole. “Um excuse me Erick” Erick stopped sucking and glared up at Prue. “Um yeah sorry to bother you too but Piper needs her medication she’s diabatic and way scared of needles so I am the only one that can give her, her shot so can I borrow her for about an hour or so she needs rest with me right after the shot it works her up”
Erick looked at Piper who only nodded. “Is that true?” He asked. “yes I am a big baby when it comes to it” Piper added. Prue picked up Piper’s shirt and bra from the ground and handed them to her sister. Erick sighed. “I guess if she needs it then I will let her go” Piper quickly put her own clothing back on. Prue grabbed Piper’s arm and led her back to the blankets and had everyone circle around them. She made it look like she was giving a Piper shot. Piper held for a few minutes but she finally lost it. “Oh Prue” She managed to mutter out before she burst into tears and started to cry into her big sister’s chest. Prue stroked her hair. “Shh honey shh you got to calm down Piper look at me come on look at me” Piper’s eyes made her way up to her sister. “Ok good now calm down before you really make yourself sick” Piper sniffed and went back to hugging her sister. “He’s going to rape me Prue he’s going to Prue” Prue sighed. “Honey I am going to try and not let him honey I am going to try my hardest not to let him to do that to you” “Yeah me too” Sharon added. “Count me in” Sarah-Michelle added “Right me too” Drew added. “Oh you count me in Piper you’re my big sister I am not going to see you get hurt” “I don’t want to see that happen to you either sweetie” Marie added.
Piper wiped away some of her tears thanks guys. “Now I have an idea” Marie said out of the blue. If we all lay down with her in the middle and make it look like we are all asleep he just might leave her alone for awhile not wanting to wake up his Princess”
Prue nodded “Great idea” She started making beds for her sister’s while the other did the same thing. With in minutes they were all laying there and pretending to be asleep.
Prue laying there praying that Marie’s plan would work and Piper would be able to sleep and left alone.
Prue woke up the next morning with a stiff neck. From sleeping on the floor, she sat up slowly so not to wake up anyone around her. She scanned the room. A couple of the men with guns were asleep and a few others were quietly bringing in breakfast trays. “At least they feed us” She mumbled.
Prue noticed mostly everyone was still asleep. There were a few people awake holding their kids and rocking them. Prue noticed that everyone right next to her was asleep. She was the most thankful to see Piper still laying right next to her.
She ran her hand over Piper’s head she went to do the same thing to Phoebe nut noticed that she was gone. She stood up quickly her heart started to beat fast. She had know idea where her sister was. She decided to check the bath room before she got to worked up.
“Come on Leo give us back our powers” Phoebe said as she stood in front of her brother in law in the ladies bathroom. “Phoebe I can’t this is a non magical situation” Phoebe groaned. “Leo if Prue had not asked us for our powers to be put on our hold this week we would still have them so what is the difference now” Leo shrugged. “Leo I don’t care if you get in trouble we can work around that. But Leo there is a room of children and adults that are innocent” Leo was about to say something but Phoebe cut him off. “No Leo, what about Piper huh? He is going to rape her” Leo cringed “Ok ok” He said and he chanted a little spell. “There but don’t ever ask me do you a favor ever again” Phoebe nodded and hugged him tight but stopped smiling when she turned around and saw her big sister standing there. “Um hi Prue” she muttered. Leo smiled at her and orbed out before she had a chance to yell at him too.
“PHOEBE” Prue snapped at her sister once the blue lights were gone. “What were you thinking I told you not to call him” Phoebe hung her head. “Prue I can’t sit around and watch Piper be hurt like that and I am surprised to see that you are so willing to let it happen.” Prue groaned “Phoebe I am not trying to let it happen but Phoebe how do we explain our powers if we blow use our powers against them” Phoebe shrugged. “Prue I don’t care I want off this ship now and I want Piper to walk off this ship the same as she was when she walked on, well maybe less grumpy” Phoebe attempted to be funny but it only made her cry and fall to her knees. Prue quickly dropped down next to her. “Hey now shh it’s going to be ok honey” Phoebe sniffed “You have your powers back” Prue saw a bar of soap on the sink she narrowed her eyes at it and sure enough it went flying.” Prue grinned it did feel better to have her power’s back. “Ok we got to tell Piper” Prue said “But this does mean we are using our powers to get out of here” Phoebe nodded and followed Prue out of the bathroom. One of Erick’s goons came up to Phoebe and grabbed her wrist. “Hi baby Erick said that you were his girls sister and that I could have you if I wanted” Phoebe felt her knees buckling under her again. Prue was right behind her in a second and got her before she went down. “Wow I made you weak at the knees” The guy stated before he started to laugh at his own corny joke. Prue rolled her eyes. “You’ve got to be kidding” she muttered under her breath. The guy looked at her. “Hi sweetheart you must be the older sister. Yo Kevin” A bigger guy came over to them. “this is Erick’s girls older sister, want her?” Kevin licked her lips. “Looks like after breakfast treats huh” Prue glared at him. “Now Ben leave these treats alone “While we get breakfast ready” Ben let go of Phoebe after licking her ear and cheeks. “Yum” he stated before leaving.
Phoebe was so glad that her sister was standing behind her. She could barley breath she was so scared. “Prue” Prue shushed her and guided her back to their make shift beds. Prue sat down and Phoebe crumbled down next to her. She leaned into her big sister and just let her rub her back. “I am so scared” Prue nodded “I know honey I know” Phoebe sighed and just concentrated on her big sister touching her back she felt safe for the time being.
Bane crawled over them and crawled behind Prue. Prue leaned into him and helped Phoebe lean into her better. Prue looked at her watch it was only five am maybe Phoebe could sleep for awhile longer. Prue continued to rub Phoebe’s back in the same way she did when she was a child and she wanted her asleep. Her magic worked on Phoebe and she was asleep in minutes. “So is she ok” Bane asked referring to the now sleeping Phoebe. Prue’s eyes went over to where Ben was standing. “See that big tub of lard standing there in the red shirt” Bane nodded “Yeah that guy can’t wait to jam his small dick into her” Bane could sense the anger in Prue’s voice. She was beyond pissed she was at a madder then he had ever seen her at. “Prue what about your powers can you protect them with that” he whispered into her ear.
“Well I was not going to resort to that but Phoebe called Leo and we have our powers back so I might just have too. I have to keep them safe. If Piper was raped it would destroy who she is. And Phoebe would be shattered for awhile I believe she would pick up the pieces but not after going down a spiral down hill” Prue sighed and shuttered just thinking about it. Bane kissed her cheek. “I love you Prue and I know you are scared and that’s ok to be scared” Prue pushed him off a little. “Bane that’s not how I work I can’t show them I am scared or Piper and Phoebe will crumble they need me to be strong that has how it’s always been and that’s how it will always be” Bane didn’t say anything he just kept his lips to her head letting her know he was there. Mean while in Prue’s heat was beating as fast as she had ever felt it in her life” She knew what she had to do. She had to use her powers to save her sister’s. They now came first.

“Prue that hurts Prue” Piper whined as Prue tried her best to get Piper’s long hair braided. With out showering Piper’s hair was becoming stringy and she knew Piper hated that feeling more then anything else. So Prue was braiding it to help her feel more relaxed. “Sorry Piper but I have an idea” Prue whispered into ear. “What” Piper asked. “Well we have our powers back so if we freeze the whole room after making a riot type situation we can set it up to look like Bane and a few other guys took them all out. While really Phoebe and I knock them sense less” Piper looked at Prue “Ok I want off this boat so bad and I want to sleep in my own bed in my own house next to my own husband” Piper added. Prue hugged her tight. “I know you do sweet girl and that’s all I want for you. SO we need to fill Bane and Phoebe in” Piper looked over at Phoebe who was playing patty cake with on of Marie’s kids. While Sharon and Marie talked “How is she doing” Prue shrugged “She is scared but other then that she coping” Prue crawled over to Bane and whispered into his ear while Piper did the same with Phoebe. Phoebe’s smile grew. She knew they didn’t have long before Ben and Erick were going to be wanting their treats.
Prue told Sharon to get up and get mad and to start yelling. “Why” Sharon asked as she stood up. “Just trust me ok I have a plan and it will work” Sharon smiled “I trust ya” Prue smiled “Thanks a lot give me three seconds before you start yelling” Marie stood up and joined the conversation. “Is that a good idea Prue there are kids in the room” Prue took a deep breath. “I know Marie I know and I told you before Piper and Phoebe are my kids and I have a plan that will not put them in danger I promise you no kids will be hurt trust me ok” Sharon nodded and Marie smiled “Ok” Prue ran over to Sarah-Michelle and Drew “Okay girls I need you to get up and start yelling horrible things to the men” Drew blinked back in surprise “Are you freaking nuts you are going to get us killed they have guns” Sarah-Michelle nodded “Drew is right that sounds really dangerous” Prue sighed “Girls I know it sounds scary I am just asking you to trust me” Sarah-Michelle took a deep breath. “I am in” Drew rolled her eyes. “Me too I guess but if you get me killed I am going to haunt you forever” Prue giggled “Deal” She ran over to Piper and wrapped her arm around her. “You ready” Piper took a deep breath “Yeah of course I am” “Me too” Phoebe said with a big smile on her face. Prue giggled “I knew you were my little karate kid” Phoebe gave Prue a fake glare.
Sharon looked over at Prue. Prue gave her a smile and nod telling her to go ahead and let her inner self out. Sharon steady her feet on the ground and took a deep breath. Marie pulled her youngest kids to her and sat on the ground. She had her hands over babies ears knowing Sharon was about to get loud and say some things her kids had never heard.
“Hey Ass holes how is breakfast going tub of lards” The men with guns whipped around and glared at her. “You shut up” One of them yelled. Ozzy stood up. “Hey you do nt… yell… at my wifeeee.” Prue watched as Bane stood up getting ready. Sarah Michelle took a deep breath “Yeah you pigs you can’t keep us here” “Your going to HELL” Drew yelled getting into the heat of the moment. Piper looked up at Prue waiting for the go ahead to freeze the room. Prue held up her fingers. “You guys think you are so tough but you are actually a couple of bastards with small penises” Sharon screamed at them. The men with the guns started to move in on the group. Prue saw Marie’s face drain of color. “Now Piper Now” Piper flicked her wrists and turned around and flicked her wrists again to make sure the whole room was frozen. Piper un froze Bane and the four of them went around taking the backs of the guns and hitting the men as hard as they could. Next they moved a few of the men to standing over the guys now on the ground. Finally they all went back to their spots and Piper flicked her wrists again and watched as everyone came back to life and gasped realizing all the med were out cold and Bane and Ozzy and few other big men standing over them. “What happened” Marie asked getting to her feet. “Looks like the men saved the day” Prue smiled “Now everyone get of this room we have to lock them in and let the people on bored know we are ok and get us to land ASAP so these guys will be arrested and we can all go home” Prue watched as families started to leave the room confused but accepting the answer they were given. Prue gathered her own girls up and started to guide them to the door. “Go to your room now and lock yourselves in it” “But Prue…” Phoebe started to protest but saw the look in Prue’s eyes. “Come on Piper lets go” Piper sighed “When are you coming up what if something happens to you?” “Piper go with Phoebe I am just going to make sure everyone gets out ok. Bane is staying with me but I need you too up in your room now please” Piper hung her head. She did not want to leave Prue but she knew she had too.

Prue watched as her sister’s left. Then she and Bane made sure everyone was out. Sharon stopped in front of Prue. “Thank you” Prue raised her eye brow “For what” Sharon winked at her. “I know you had a part in saving us. I don’t know how you did it but you got us a miracle. Now go take care of your sister’s the little quiet one um Piper looks like she needs you” Prue smiled at her. “Thank you and your right as soon as I know these guys are locked in here tight I will go be with her” Sharon glanced up and saw the ships security coming. “Looks like you don’t have to wait long” Prue smiled “Good” “We are so sorry this happened to you the guy said running past Prue with a few others following him. They started hand cuffing the men while one guy asked Prue Sharon Ozzy and Bane a few questions.

Three days later everyone was at home which is where they all wanted to be. Phoebe Sarah-Michelle and Drew all exchanged phone numbers and address and email address. Phoebe was thrilled to learn that Sarah-Michelle would be filming a movie really close to them and they had plans of getting together and hanging out.
Marie and Sharon had gotten their phone numbers and address as well.
Prue sat quietly in the living room thinking about everything that had happened the last few days. It was all catching up to her. She knew Phoebe had a horrible two nights right after it happened but last night she slept through the night so Phoebe was coming around. Piper was Leo until tonight then Leo had to go away for a week. She was planning on going up and checking on her in a few minutes. Prue sighed and shook of the feeling on how close Piper and Phoebe’s lives came to being shattered. She felt hot tears streaming down her face and she heard a loud thud. She wiped away her tears and ran up the stairs. She didn’t even to bother knocking on Piper’s door she just flung it open. She found Piper on the ground with her arms wrapped around her knees she had big tears streaming down her cheeks and a broken vase laying shattered right in front of the wall.
Prue approached her slowly. “Miss Piper Jane look at me” Prue said as she kneeled in front of her sister. Piper looked up at Prue. “Its not fair Prue I am scared and Leo can’t be here with me. He has to go help a charge and he wasn’t with me when Erick was sucking on me like a sucker and I am scared Prue what if he comes looking for me.” Prue did not tell Piper to calm down or stop crying. She knew Piper had shut a part of herself off for awhile and now it was back on and letting go of what happened. “Come with me Piper lets go to my room ok. Phoebe’s out at P3 with a friend and won’t be home until late. Piper let Prue help her stand. She let Prue tuck her into the bed. “Ok lets just lay here we don’t even have to talk” Piper cried for twenty minutes before she stopped. Prue sat up then and handed her a tissue. “Better now” Piper nodded “Yeah thanks for letting me cry next to you...Hey you were crying too” Piper said leaning over and wiped away a tear off of her sister’s cheek.” Prue blushed “You caught me” Piper wiped a few more tears away. “Why were you crying” Prue sniffed and pulled Piper into a big hug. “Because I was so scared that you were going to get hurt and that scared me and laying here with you sobbing and knowing I could not help you just got the better of me” Piper couldn’t help herself she flung herself on to Prue and held her tight. “I am ok Prue I am ok” Prue held the back of her sister’s head. “I know you are honey and I am sorry I made you go on that cruise” “I am not I had fun and I was with you and when all that stuff happened was scared I will admit that but Prue you were there and I knew you would find a way to protect me. I know I am your little girl and Phoebe is your baby and you would die for us”
Piper felt Prue hug her tighter and she heard her sister sniff. No words were needed. Piper could feel Prue’s love for her. So she just let her big sister hold on to her. She knew Prue needed it. Piper smiled as she felt her sister run her hand through her hair. “I love you” Piper whispered into her sister’s ear. She got a kiss in return. Piper never felt so safe in her life. She was truly blessed.
