Charmed: The Devil's offspring
CHAPTER ONE
The three Halliwell sisters sat at the kitchen table discussing the current demon attack.
"So what are you saying?" asked Phoebe, the youngest of the three.
Prue, the oldest, explained "All I'm saying is you have to be more careful. Next time, we might not be here to protect you."
Agreeing, Piper, the middle sister, said "She's right. You don't have any active powers."
Snapping at her sister, Phoebe said "I know that! Do you have to rub it in my face!?" Phoebe stood up from the chair she sat in. Her hand rubbed against Piper's, Phoebe closed her eyes, opening them seconds later.
"Phoebe?" asked Piper, "What did you see?"
Sitting down, Phoebe stuttered, "I saw a girl…being chased by this demon…running into a trap."
"Did you see what the girl looked like?" asked Prue.
Phoebe nodded, "She had brownish hair with a tint of red…she had on this business-like suit."
"What about this demon? Could you recognize him?" asked Piper.
Shaking her head, Phoebe said "I don't know who this demon is but…it was red…with spikes…and…"
"Breathe Phoebe!" exclaimed Prue, Phoebe took in a few deep breaths, "How about we check the book of shadows?"
Phoebe nodded, "Yeah… that seems like a plan."
In the attic, the three sisters searched the many pages of the book of shadows.
"There!" exclaimed Phoebe, "That's him!"
The picture of the demon was very demon like… he had red horns, red eyes…red everything.
Prue started to read the description of the demon out loud, "He's an upper-level demon…with the power to burn anything in his path…his name is Devil-child…only way to defeat him is with the strongest witches -that's us - the power of three spell is the only way to vanquish this demon."
Astonished, Piper exclaimed "That's all it says?"
"Yup…" answered Prue.
"Leo!" called Piper.
"What are you doing?" asked Prue.
Piper replied, "I'm going to find out if the elders know anything more about this…'Devil-child'."
Blue orbs appeared in the attic, seconds later Leo was there. He had on a white robe.
"Piper, what's wrong?" asked Leo.
"What are you wearing - never mind that - but do you think you could find out if the elders know anything about a demon called the Devil-child?" responded Piper.
"The Devil-child?" Leo repeated.
"Yes…the Devil-child." nodded Piper.
"Everyone knows who he is…he is…" Leo began but then stopped.
"You know who he is!? And you didn't tell me!?" exclaimed Piper.
"Well… I've never really met him but from what I heard he is the child of the devil himself." Leo whispered, as if telling a secret that no one else was supposed to hear.
"And?" said Piper.
"And anyone who's ever went face to face against him has never been seen again…ever!"
"They didn't have the charmed ones then!" Prue exclaimed, "We can take him…I mean…we do have the power of three."
"Aren't you forgetting something?" Phoebe asked Prue.
Confused, Prue asked "No, I don't think so…am I?"
"He burns anything in his path!" shouted Phoebe.
Shrugging, Prue said "So? We are the charmed ones…are we going to let a little fire scare us off? And besides we have Leo here if any of us were to really get hurt."
Leo looked up at the ceiling, he was trying to ignore their jingles but he knew he wouldn't be able for much longer.
Piper looked at him, "They're calling you aren't they?"
Leo nodded, "I'm sorry…but I have to go…"
"Go ahead…go…" she said.
Giving her a quick kiss, he orbed to the heavens, where the elders were waiting for him.
"Leo… We've been waiting…" a woman elder announced.
