" Freeze him Piper

  Ch. 1   "The Start"

" Freeze him Piper!" Prue yelled as she threw the demon across the room.

" I'm trying, I'm trying!" Piper yelled back.  Around the room, furniture was scorched black from being blown up.  " Geez, how long does it take to control this power," she said as she tried to freeze the demon.  A table next to the demon blew up instead, sending the demon flying, and with a little help from Prue, he broke through a window.

" Okay, Piper, try to concentrate, think 'freeze him' and you might get it!" Prue said as she tried to advise her sister.

" I know how to control my own powers, thank you." Piper said back angrily.  As the demon got up, Prue astral-projected outside, behind the demon.  She kicked him, and he shot back through the window.  " Please work." Piper thought as she brought up her hands to freeze him.  The demon stopped suddenly, in mid-air.  " Finally," Piper sighed, " after many, tries, I got it."

" Yeah, now look at our house, half our stuff is burnt."  Prue joked.

" Haha, funny."  Piper returned.  " So what is this demon called?"  She asked as she looked at the frozen demon.

" I don't know, it's usually Phoebe who researches them, but who knows where she is today."  Prue said.

" Hmm, I think she said she had a 'college project'.  Uh-huh, yeah… well, we'll ask her when she gets back."  Piper said.  Suddenly, the room filled with blue light.

"Hey Piper, Prue watch out for…." Leo looked around and didn't have to finish.  " So, what happened around here?"

" Well, the furniture was half burnt from that demon's energy balls, the other half was from Piper's little power, which she finally got to control, and the broken window was from me."  Prue answered jokingly. " You know, why do the demon's like to attack us at our house now?  Before, they were always in an alley or something."  She asked, not expecting an answer.

Suddenly the demon unfroze and finished his fall.  He got up and threw an energy ball at Piper.  She quickly reacted by freezing both the energy ball and the demon.  " Okay then, what is this demon called Leo?"

" Well, he is called Rifter.  He can travel through different planes and makes rifts as he travels.  These rifts can exchange beings from one plane to another, which is not good.  Him being here means that there is a rift somewhere around here.  We need to close it."  He explained.

" Ok, ok slow down.  So there's a hole in our plane, we need to vanquish this demon, and we need to see if anything from our plane or another plane switched places?"  Piper asked, in an exhausted tone.

" Yeah that's about it."  Leo said as he nodded his head.

" Well, let's take care of the demon first."  Prue said.  With a wave of her hand, she threw the frozen energy ball at the demon.  He screamed, burst into flames, and disappeared leaving a dark burn mark on the floor.  " Hm, that was easy.  Now we only have two things left to do, close the hole , and check if anything switched planes."

" Yup, you sure we vanquished Rifter?"  Piper asked.  " It was kinda too easy."

" Yeah, you did, I don't sense the elders' warnings anymore."  Leo said

" Oh, ok, that's good, let's go check the Book of Shadows on how to do the last two things on our 'list', hehe."

" Yup." Prue answered.  Then the three of them went up to the attic.
