Who: Phoebe Halliwell and Prue Halliwell.
When: Tonight!
Where: Outside the graveyard
What: This prompt and Prue's arrival
Rating: TBD

Phoebe didn't know what took her past the graveyard on her walk to the grocery store. In fact, she hadn't meant to go this way. She wanted nothing more than to avoid this place, at least for now, while she was dealing with what had happened to her. Phoebe knew, after six years of fighting demons and being a witch, that locking her emotions down was very bad - and very unhealthy. Even without the way it could affect her magic, she knew from her Psych degree that it wasn't good for her physically. But even so, she wasn't really ready to see where she'd died, so standing outside the place now - it was a shock to her system. Swallowing hard, she started to turn to go a different route when she heard something odd.

Frowning, Phoebe shifted back to the graveyard uneasily. There was some kind of fight going on...pushing aside her indecision, the witch hurried into it, then stopped as she heard voices familiar to her. "...Sam? Dean?" She called out while moving in deeper, looking around frantically - where were they? This wasn't a vision, but something - she stopped short when a woman's scream suddenly cut through the words, turning around quickly. The sounds begin to get louder and louder until Phoebe cried out herself, unable to take it. Falling to her knees, she lifted her hands to her ears, unable to stop the sounds, when suddenly they stopped abruptly.

Gasping sharply for breath, Phoebe stayed where she was on her knees, hands still pressed to her ears as she shuddered, sweat pouring down her face. Her head was pounding, but for the moment - she didn't even notice, still trying to adjust to the psychic onslaught she'd endured.

Prue still wasn't sure where she was or if she was dead and this some sort of afterlife. She was wandering through the graveyard, headed toward the lights she had seen. Maybe someone could help her, whoever these people were and if she was dead, well she'd figure out what to do then. She came around a corner and spotted the gates to the graveyard. Well that was a good place to start, she thought and started for the gates. There was someone there and she stopped dead in her tracks when she realized who it was.

It couldn't be....but it was. There was no doubt that it was her but she shouldn't be here. "Phoebe?" Prue took a few steps closer, trying to make out her features in the dim light from the moon. "Phoebe, is that you? Where are we?"

It took a few minutes for any other sounds to get through, and only as Phoebe slowly lowered her hands did she hear the distant voice...and it wasn't possible. Shaking her head, Phoebe kept her eyes closed for the moment. This didn't make sense - she had to be hearing things now, right? Prue's voice, after so long...almost reluctantly, she opened and lifted her eyes. As they settled on Prue, barely visible in the waning moonlight, Phoebe sank back onto her heels in shock.

"Prue...? This....how?!" Was it a trick of the Seal? Some resident demon or ghost or even a shapeshifter? Phoebe had no idea, but seeing her sister after so many years of wishing for this exact moment caused her to mentally reel, increasing her headache. "I....I don't know how you can be here..." She whispered dumbly. Even though she knew the Seal could pull people from different points in time, she had never once expected to see her oldest sister again.

"Are you really here?"

Prue knew this had to be a shock for her sister, after all she'd been with her just moments before. "It's me, I promise," she said, stepping closer to Phoebe. "but how....I'm dead aren't I? Shax, I was fighting him then I was here...is this hell? Or Heaven?" Her mouth dropped open.

"OH god Phoebe, are we both dead? Piper..what's going to happen to her?" She couldn't stand the thought of her sister being alone but if she was dead and Phoebe was here too, what other explanation could there possibly be? "We have to find a way back. There has to be something, a way to reach Piper. We can't leave her alone!'

She continued to stare for a minute longer, then got back to her feet. Rather than answer her sister's questions - and she knew she had to, of course - Phoebe closed the distance and wrapped Prue in a tight hug. Tears welled up in her eyes and began to fall unheeded. "God...I can't believe this - it's really you?!" After a few minutes, she slowly loosened her hold, but didn't let Prue go. She couldn't bear to right now.

"I...we...no, we're not dead. I mean - you are - or you were - back home, but...here - here you're alive..." She shook her head at the questions, one hand shifting to wipe her eyes. "This is Kansas," she said on a slight laugh. "And - and Piper's here. She's okay. We're all okay, Prue...I can't wait until she sees you, too!"

She held on tightly, letting her own tears fall freely. This was real, Phoebe was real, they weren't dead but the rest of it made no sense. Although not a lot about their lives made sense anyway. Prue wiped her tears away and smiled at her sister.

"So this is like an alternate universe or something?" she looked around her. "but Kansas? Couldn't we have ended up someplace more exotic? Like Jamaica?" Prue shook her head. "you'll have to explain all this to me, I'm sure there's a story and Piper's here too?" She felt the tears start again. "I'm so glad. So glad we're all here. I...you look older." It had just hit her. "Not bad, you look great but you look older than I remember you. Is that possible?"

"Yeah - exactly like an alternate universe. Lawrence, Kansas," she told Prue, squeezing her again. "Not really - magical Seal, mystical portal, no way to go home," she quipped, then smiled a little when she saw the tears. "Yeah, she's here - we'ere here..." She trailed off for a moment, realizing that they were still missing someone. Paige. If only she were there too, they'd all be together.

Lifting a hand to her hair - she knew it was different from the last time Prue had seen her - she then moved it to her face, blinking a bit. "I look older? Really?" That was almost disappointing...but then she blinked the thought away and shook her head. "Yeah - I mean - I would. It's...there's a lot to fill you in on. But Piper and I should do it together..."

"Oh so many Toto jokes, so little time," quipped Prue. "but yeah I think is a conversation all three of us need to have. Looks like I've missed a lot." She grinned when she saw Phoebe touch her face. "Phoebe, you're gorgeous, you'll always be gorgeous but if I was dead where you came from, it would mean that you'd be older than you were when I died. That's all I meant."

She couldn't help but smile. Of course Phoebe would be worried about that but she was sincere in her praise. Both of her sisters were beautiful both inside and out. "Is anyone else from home here? Or just you and Piper?" Part of Prue hoped that maybe if she could be brought here from near death, was their a chance that Andy might be here too? Or was that too much to hope for?
