CH-1: The Ally
Edited: 1/5/14 for grammatical errors. The plot has not changed.
"Uh! You bastard!" Valerie Wells shouted at the demon as she ducked away from the knife he threw at her.
Spinning around on her heels Valerie extended her leg and catching the demon off guard she was able to sweep his feet out from under him and send him falling to the ground. Standing up Valerie turned and glared at the monster in front of her. She had no weapons and wasn't really sure what to do in this type of situation.
Thinking quickly, she took off her heels, the stupid things she was forced to wear for the ball room dancing unit in gym class. She was convinced the shoes were trying to kill her, so maybe they'd be nice and try to kill the demon instead. Kicking off both shoes she picked one up and threw it at the demon, who was starting to stand up. Val was hoping that the sharp end of the shoe would somehow stake itself threw the demons heart. And yes, Val knew that the demon was in fact not a vampire, but she figured that a stake threw the heart would kill pretty much anything, even a demon.
Unfortunately Valerie never found out if it would have worked or not, because with her bad aim and a turn of the shoe, the demon was hit in the arm with the side of the shoe. The stupid demon even had to nerve to look at her amused.
"Oh, shut up!" Valerie told him rolling her eyes.
Val knew she needed to think of a new plan because she had just botched her previous one. Her heart might not have started racing so fast when the demon smiled at her if she had known about the figures crouching behind the dumpster, biding their time before they came to the rescue.

Wyatt and Chris Halliwell watched the girl fight as they hid crouched behind the dumpster; they'd ditched school for this and were just waiting for the demon to make one final move before they saved the day. But they're plan went awry because they never expected their mother to show up.
Piper Halliwell had been at home, making cookies for her niece's elementary school class when her youngest sister orbed into the kitchen with their middle sister in tow. Phoebe had a premonition earlier that day and once she made sense of it and made a potion, she contacted Paige and they'd gone to get Piper so they could save the young girl in her vision. Taking the last of the cookies out of the oven Piper walked over to her sisters, took Paige's hand, and the three of them orbed away, only to come up crouched right next to Piper's two teenaged sons, who were supposed to be in school.
"Mom!" Both boys screeched quietly at the sight of their mother and aunts behind them.
Piper narrowed her eyes at her sons while the Aunts gave them both a disapproving look, but the sound of the young girl fighting for her life had interrupted what was going to be a very long lecture from Piper.
"I'll deal with you two when we get home," She promised them with a stern look before peaking around the dumpster, seeing the girl throw a heeled shoe at the demon.
Paige snorted quietly from her spot as she saw that girl look at the fallen shoe at the demon's feet with disdain before saying something to the demon. The girl was just like in Phoebe's vision. Medium height, long straight blonde hair pulled up high into a ponytail, and wearing a school uniform: a light blue button up shirt, black tights under her blue and black plaid skirt and short black heels. Tracking down the uniform Phoebe had figured out where the attack would happen -in the ally behind the upper class high school wear all the girls wore uniforms like this. Now watching the girl defend herself, Phoebe was hoping this young girl would live.
With a throw of a dagger the Charmed Ones made their move.

With her heart racing and the fear of death fresh in her mind Valerie watched as another knife suddenly appeared in the demon's hand, he smiled at her and walked one step closer, bare foot now Val took a step back, the pavement hard and cold through her tights.
"You put up a good fight little one, too bad you have to die now," the demons said, raising his hand and throwing the dagger straight for her heart.
The dagger never made contact, because with a flip of her hand Valerie had changed it's route and it was now heading toward the demon, landing, in blink of an eye, in his heart. The demon's eyes grew wide for one second before he exploded, sending green slime all over the ally, landing on Valerie and her five new companions who seemingly came from nowhere.
"Dammit!" Val hissed, shaking her hand and throwing the slime to the concrete pavement. "And I still have to go to chemistry after this!"
"What the hell?" Paige said shocked at the turn of events, causing the young girl's head to snap up and turn their way.
