Prue had just received the call that people who were married to police officers dreaded. Her husband had been shot. An ambulance had been arranged, they were looking for him... they were looking for him? She collected her children and was almost in the car when they were engulfed by a blinding white light and transported to Galador. They'd been in the drive-way, still in their pyjamas and suddenly they were in a lush green park in the dead of night. Eleanor started to cry loudly in her arms. She bounced her in an effort to calm her. "It's okay, Nellie. I know, it was sooooo bright, wasn't it? Scared me too," she said softly, trying to stay calm as she assessed her new surroundings.

"Momma," Eric Jr. said, tugging on her pant leg to get her attention. "Momma, where are we?"

"I don't know, E.J," Prue replied. Once Eleanor had calmed enough she set her on her feet, then Prue took a long stabilizing breath and set a hand on her heavily pregnant belly. Remember that poster that you like, she thought. Keep Calm and Carry on. "Hey look," she pointed, "that sign. It says 'Welcome'. That seems like as good a place as any to find out."

"Yeah, of course... I'll bring you up to speed on our way." He tapped something into his phone quickly. "I took the tram here, but I'm thinking you probably shouldn't be walking even as far as that. So... I'm gonna have Amy come pick us up. Yeah, she and Iris are both here too."

Then, as they talked, a young-looking blue-skinned humanoid alien walked past, about 40-50 feet away from them, pausing to happily yell over to them, "WOOO! Jeremy!!! You rock!!!!" before continuing along his way.

Smirking, Jeremy shook his head. He clearly loved the attention, but knew this wasn't the time to indulge in it. "You guys want something to drink? I'm gonna run back into the Welcome Center and get your phones. Everyone who arrives here gets one."

"Momma, that man's blue!" Eric Jr's said excitedly, pointing.

"...He sure is," Prue murmured, reminding Eric Jr that it was rude to point. Prue brought her attention back to Jeremy. This was a lot of information to take in in such a short amount of time. "...Maybe just some juice boxes?" She asked with a grateful smile. "...And is there somewhere we can sit down?" She didn't want to worry him, but she knew that stress and pregnancy weren't a good combination.

	"Sure. Just come with me. You guys can sit in the Welcome Center while we wait for Amy to get here." He looked at his phone and blinked as an idea hit him. "...you want me to let Eric know you're here? Or are you looking to surprise him?" (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

"You'd better let him know that we're here." Ever the attentive mother, Prue made sure her children were situated and weren't likely to trip over themselves before taking hold of their hands and following Jeremy's lead. "Thanks for this, Jeremy. I don't know what I would've done if you weren't here." Actually, she'd probably have a panic attack and go into premature labor, but shh.
