If there was one thing that could be said for Prue Halliwell, it was that family always came first. Regardless of a situation, and no matter the risk she personally might have to take, making sure her family was safe was at the forefront of her mind. When it came to being a Charmed One, of course, there were times that she had to compromise on that issue. However, for every demon that tried to take a piece out of them as a whole, Prue almost always came up with some sort of plan that involved dealing with the threat with minimal danger placed upon her siblings.
Barbas was no different.
While she knew that it was dangerous to face him alone - and while she had grown enough as a person during her time as a witch to know that sometimes she had to rely on others as much as she relied on herself - Prue also knew that Paige was the only one who could manage to brew this potion correctly. And while Piper wasn't necessarily required for the potion, Prue had very little issue lumping the two of them together in that same category if it gave her what she felt was a legitimate excuse to deal with this on her own.
Not that she was going to face Barbas to vanquish him alone. No, Prue was many things, but an idiot wasn't one of them. He'd grown far more powerful than the last time she'd faced him and she knew that it would take all three of them (and probably others, truth be told) to take him down once and for all. But when it came to getting a piece of his flesh? That was something Prue not only knew she could handle, it was something she'd much rather do on her own.
So she waited, until it was late enough that she was almost certain her sisters would be asleep. She did her best to calm her rattled nerves as she eyed the clock, going over the lessons she'd learned from Gabriel earlier that evening at the park. Narrowing her telekinesis down until it was a finely tuned instrument and could be used to slice through something wasn't easy for her. Her power worked differently than his did. Where his was far more focused, hers only seemed to get bigger. Yet she had figured out a way to do what he did and, while she was hardly an expert at it as he seemed to be, she knew she could manage it for the task that waited ahead for her.
It was nearly two a.m. when she stopped practicing slicing through various pieces of cloth and slipped away from her room. There was a slight chill in the air as she made her way down the mostly empty streets of the city. As she walked, she turned her focus outward. She had to find Barbas. Which, she figured, wouldn't be too hard since he was just itching for a face-off with her after encountering her astrally projected self the last time. The tricky part, in fact, was going to be finding a place to meet him where no one else could be hurt.
But, Prue would manage. She had to. It was her job to protect the innocents from demons, and that's exactly what she intended to do.
