I groan as another a small earthquake shakes the house. After it stops, Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and I come down the stairs.

"Oh god. Not another after shock." Phoebe childishly whines.

Prue rubs her head. "Yeah, well, at least they're getting smaller. What was the main one? 4.3?"

"It was a 4.5." I remind her.

We all walk into he kitchen.

"Okay, okay, okay. Does anybody smell that?" Prue asked as she stops.

I sniffed the air. "Yeah, uh, I caught a whiff of it first thing this morning. I think it's coming from the basement."

"Gas leak?" Prue states.

"I don't know. I called someone to come out and check. They should be here any..." Piper says before she gets interrupted by the doorbell. "Now. I'll get it."

She leaves the room.

"We're never gonna pull this off." Prue groans.

I smiled. "Everything's going to be fine."

"Yeah, until the house blows up. Look, this Bucklands VIP specifically requested for the dinner party to be here." Prue explained. "Now, Claire may have prodded me into agreeing, but the point is I did agree, and, and..."

Phoebe interrupts her. "Nothing has changed. Piper's gonna cook a feast. I will serve with grace. And Claire will kiss your ass..."

Piper clears her throat as she enters the room with the gas man.

The gas man smiles. "Morning. Wow. That's the smell? Doesn't really smell like gas."

"Yeah, but if it is, we can't light the stove. No stove. No dinner." Prue panics.

I pay her shoulder to calm her down. "Relax. Everything will be fine."

"Well, let me check it out and see what's up." The gas man says.

"Great thanks. The basement is thataway." Piper says while pointing to the door.
