Episode 7-Seven Princes of Hell
Prue
It had been a couple of weeks since all of my cousins and our parents had moved into Magic School and I had to admit I liked being here. I enjoyed being a witch as much as most of my cousins and I loved perfecting my craft. I just wanted to break free though and explore the world…separate from my families usually route. Wyatt and Chris both went to Magic school and set records in every class; from advanced potion making to advanced combat. I was tired of living in the Halliwell shadow.
Melinda and I were sitting in history class and for once I was paying attention while she was gazing out of the window. She was clearly preoccupied and thinking about someone. I did not need my empathy power to know that. She was thinking about Zander.
"Psst!" I whispered to Melinda. She didn't turn my way so I through a pen top at her. It got caught in her hair.
"Huh, yea did I miss something?" Mel asked.
"Why don't you just try to find him?" I asked.
"Find who?" Mel asked. Trying to act like she did not know whom I was talking about. I gave her a look. "I am not thinking about him. We helped save him from his family. I am sure he is moving on with his life. Besides the little bit of attraction between us was just one sided." Mel said.
"No it wasn't… I felt something from both of you that day." I said.
"Well I would not know how to find him. He is not a witch and all I know is his first name. Besides he is demon and my mother would freak." Mel said.
"I don't think so…she did save him when he was a baby. Besides I didn't since anything evil about him. His human father raised him and as far as we know he never killed an innocent… and lets not forget that he was cutie. So in my book that makes him a great choice." I said.
"Whatever…we will see if I ever see him again. What about you and Ian? You guys have been spending a lot of time together. How old is he anyway?" Mel asked.
"He is 24." I whispered.
"What!" Mel yelled and the teacher quit lecturing and just stared at us. " Sorry Mr. Andrews." The professor turned back toward the rest of the class and continued to talk about ancient creatures that once lived in this world. Once the attention was off of us we continued our conversation. "Your mother is going flip out on you. He is older than Wyatt." Melinda said.
"Yea I know and my mother is going to flip because she is not going to find out." I said. "But anyway! Speaking of Ian we are going out tomorrow afternoon. He will not tell me where but he said to bring a swimming suit."
"Well you know the rules. We can't leave magic school unless we are in a group of three." Mel said.
"I know after that hour long lecture from your mother… that was enough punishment…and that was just her warning." I said as Mel and I laughed.
"I told Ian and he said I can invite some others so I already invited whom is bringing Jace with her and I hope you can come." I said with a big pleading smile.
"And be a fifth wheel? No thanks!"
"Well you won't be a fifth wheel because Seth will be there." I said. Mel gave me a look that could kill.
"No! Absolutely not! He is so annoying and he tries to hard." Mel said.
"You haven't given him a chance and the guy you do like you won't even try to find. So please just do this for me. Please I really like Ian and since we have these stupid rules this is the only way I can see him." I said as I whined and pleaded some more.
"Oh god! Fine! Just stop whining." Mel said.

The next day Mel, Paris, Jace, and I met Ian and Seth at the docks. He was taking us on his families boat. I thought it was one of the smaller ones but then he lead us to one of the biggest boats there. He and Seth did all the preparations to set sail and Mel and I just sat there watching like two clueless girls. Paris and Jace were at the front doing the Titanic. That movie had been redone several times since the original but I still loved the original better.
Once we were out in the middle of the ocean. We anchored and I finally got spend time with Ian. We sat an opposite end of the boat than the others. We just admired the view and talked about everything. I glanced over at Melinda and Seth. Seth conjured a rose and handed it to Mel. She put on a fake smile and said thank you. Ian saw what I was looking at and laughed.
"She is not going to give him a chance is she?" He asked me.
"Probably not? I think she likes that Zander guy we helped the other day." I said.
"The demon?" He asked.
"Yep."
"Your family-" Ian started to say.
"Will freak! Yea I know which is why she has not tried to find him." I said.
"Ahh!" I heard Paris and Jace scream.
"What is the matter with you two?" I yelled down to the opposite end of the water.
"There is something huge in the water." Jace said.
"I am sure it was nothing." Ian said.
"No I saw it too… I felt it. It is angry." Paris said.
"What? You felt it? You can read fish now?" I asked.
"That thing is not a fish Prue! And this is not funny." Paris said and then waves started rocking the boat hard causing Jace and Seth to fall.
More waves tossed the boat around more vigorously.
"Is this normal Ian?" I asked.
"No…maybe we should-" Ian said and then stopped as a huge creature emerged from the water. He looked like a huge dragon but with out the wings. The creature made a screeching noise.
"Oh my god!" Mel said and then went to her bag and pulled out a potion.
"Mel I don't think that little vile is going to do much to that thing." I said.
The beast created more waives and this one tossed the boat a few feet in the air. When we landed we all lost our balance and fell. Seth was thrown over board.
"Seth!" Ian yelled out. He formed a huge energy ball and threw it at the creature. The energy ball connected with the creature and it just screeched again. He wrapped its tail around the boat.
"Everyone stand back." I said as I called on my electro-kinetic powers and shot my power at his tail with all my force. The creature let out a louder screech and let go of the boat and went back under water.
"We are getting out of here before that thing comes back." Ian said. He ran over to where Seth was thrown over board. Seth was fine. "You get them and I'll get Seth." Ian said to me.
I ran over to Mel, Paris, and Jace and teleported us back to Magic School and Ian followed.

We were back at Magic School, in the library, with all my family except for Wyatt, Chris, and HJ. We told everyone what happened and they could not believe it.
"The creature is called a Leviathan." Helena said as she was reading out of one of the textbooks. "It says that they are extinct though."
"Well obviously there is still one more out there." Mel said.
"It also says that the Leviathan is one of the seven princes of hell." Helena said and everyone stopped.
"What does that mean?" Holly asked.
"Okay I think we need the elders." My Aunt Paige said. She closed her eyes and seconds later in orbed one of the elders.
"Hello Paige... Halliwell family. Why have you called me?"
"Hi Lidia. What can you tell me about the seven princes of hell?" Paige asked.
"The seven princes of hell?" the elder asked shocked. "Why do you ask?"
"Because we were just attacked by one of them… Leviathan." I said.
"I don't understand. How did it get out?" Lidia said.
"Get out of where?" Piper asked.
"Hell." Lidia said simply. "The seven princes of hell are Leviathan, Belphegor, Beelzebub, Satan, Asmodeus, Mammon, and Lucifer."
"Lucifer!" Holly and Helena said in unison.
"Okay so how do we stop them?" Ian asked.
"You don't… they will not be effected by your powers." Lidia said.
"Leviathan was hurt by Prue." Paris said.
"Really?" Lidia asked us. Lidia turned to me. "The only beings that were able to fight the seven princes of Hell were the seven Archangels of Heaven. Once the Archangels defeated them they sealed off Hell and locked them there. That was eons ago. Someone pretty powerful had to let it out."
"Okay so just call these angles and get them to do it again because we have our own demons to deal with and humans too now." Piper said.
"It will not be that simple. I will need to meet with the other elders. I will be in touch." She said and then orbed out.
