CHAPTER NINE
"Selena, what the…?" asked Philippe.
"I'll tell you what's going on." Said the dark-lighter.
"Your friends here have turned evil; they have offered me a trade."
Philippe turned to Leo.
"This can't be happening."
"Oh yes it can." Said Selena and Karlia.
Together they started to say a spell:
We are the witches known as the power of three
Philippe and Leo looked worried together.
"Stop!" cried out Philippe.
But nothing would stop Karlia and Selena.
And we vanquish this dark-lighter to eternity.
For a moment the Dark-Lighter looked all smug. Happy that these two low level demons had vanquished a white-lighter. Meanwhile Leo and Philippe looked quite upset, as Philippe, crying hugged Leo and whispered
"I'm sorry."
But the next thing that happened was quite bizarre. The Dark-Lighter blew up into a million tiny pieces and Leo and Philippe were still standing there in the attic.
"We did it!" said Karlia.
"Yes you did." Said Leo.
Philippe looked from Karlia to Selena, to Leo to try to get some sort of answer as to what had just happened. But there came no response, with the exception of happiness on all three faces. Finally Karlia walked over to Philippe and sat him down.
"We never meant to hurt Leo." Started Karlia.
"We knew what we were doing once I showed Selena that I was, so called, evil."
"So called?" asked Philippe.
"Yeah" piped up Selena, also eager to join in the conversation.
"When Karlia showed me that her powers had not in fact changed at all, I knew we were still the good ol' Power of Three."
"But.." started Philippe.
"Leo told me that you guys had turned evil."
"Yeah, I ah, kind of knew they weren't all along." Said Leo guiltily.
"So why didn't you tell me?" inquired Philippe.
"I had to make sure the plan was followed through. I knew they were using me as bait to lure out the dark-lighter, so there was no way I could let you know that something was up, incase…"
"Incase I spoiled the plan?" spat out Philippe.
"Well yeah." Said Leo.
"Then why did you orb me when I asked?"
"I wanted to take you to Paris, is that such a crime?"
They all laughed. Selena then walked up to Leo.
"By the way, sorry about earlier."
And she gave him a big hug.
"Yeah, welcome to the family Leo." Said Karlia.
