TITLE: Our Screwed-Up Destiny aka For Piper
AUTHOR(S): Es, Primrose
TYPE (one-shot, chapters, part of a series): Chapters
RATING: (K, T, M, MA): T
LEAD CHARACTERS: Phoebe, Prue, Leo, Cole. There are a couple more, but we don't want to ruin the surprise.
ORIGINAL CHARACTERS: Kernus (Thanks Ro, for letting us borrow the concept of him!)
SHORT SUMMARY: What could have happened if the sister who kept Prue and Phoebe from killing each other was no longer around? An alternate-universe fic where anything can happen...and does!
For those of you who have already read this fic, do we have a treat for you!
There are actually two (yes, two) different versions of this fic.
The first one is Es' version, which she did in what the two of us call "normal prose format". This version was posted at Fanfiction.Net and The Charmed Sons.
The second one is mine, which is done in "multiple points of view format", which I was inspired to do after Es let me read Silverstar03's 'Guardian From Above' and I loved how she did it from different points of view. This version was the one posted at The Charmed Cafe and Four Times the Charm.
As this site is shared by the two of us (and because flipping a coin to figure out which version to post just seemed kinda strange), we decided to post both of them and let you, the readers, decide which one you would like to read, while also giving you who have already read one of the versions a chance to read the other.
Es' Version
"Prue! Prue! I laid down on my bed and got a premonition! Cole was lying on it and I couldn't wake him up! Prue, I can't lose him! Not after just losing..."
"Sorry, Phoebe, there's nothing we can do about it. If you can't wake him up, you can't wake him up."
"But...but, Prue, I got that premonition for a reason."
"Yes, I know you did. But you have to ignore it. Don't you understand? Thanks to you, we're not The Charmed Ones anymore. We can't vanquish demons; we can't save innocents, and we most certainly can't save Cole, no matter how badly you want to or how hard we try!"
"Thanks to me?"
"Yes! Thanks to you! If you hadn't gone after Cole, Leo wouldn't have gone after you and if Leo hadn't gone after you, he would've been able to heal Piper after we were attacked! Don't you understand? Piper's death is your fault!"
"My fault?! But, Prue! Cole!"
"Yes. Cole. Your lover. Your half-demon lover who you put above your sisters, above innocents, above everything. Now thanks to you, our sister is dead, my best friend is dead and so is the Power of Three. Since you fell in love with that half-demon, you've lied to me to the point where I can't even bring myself to trust you anymore. If you love him so much more than you love me or the innocents we could've saved, just go! Go! Find your half-demon lover! Concentrate on him and forget all about me! Because I want to forget all about you! I'll never be able to look at you again without thinking of how you're the one responsible for Piper's death!"
Phoebe stared at her big sister. "No! No! That's not true! That's not true! It's not my fault! It can't be my fault!"
Primrose's Version
Author's Notes: Once upon a time, I was part of a Role-Playing Game called "Our Screwed-Up Destiny" where my fellow RP’ers and I explored what could've happened if it hadn't been Prue who stood between the innocent and Shax before Shax threw her through the wall the hardest, so she was the one who died. I let my friend, Es, read the RPG. Although she thought that the girl playing Paige and I (who took Prue’s part) did a magnificent job (thank you sweetie!), neither of us was overjoyed with the job the other players did with their characters, especially Phoebe. So we came up with the idea of rewriting it as a fic--but a fic done our way.
--PRUE--
"Prue! Prue! I laid down on my bed and got a premonition! Cole was lying on it and I couldn't wake him up! Prue, I can't lose him! Not after just losing..."
