Chapter 9: Present time
"You are not really considering this 'association' Prue", asked Paige as soon as they orb in the living room.
"I don't know, right now I just want my sister back." Answered Prue sadly. "Leo can you see what the Elders think about that story?" she added. Leo nod and orb out.
"Piper, where are you going?" asked Paige bewildered, as her sister pick up her purse and walks towards the front door.
"P3, I have a club to run, remember." Piper answered, she turns around and looks at her sisters, "We have to wait for Leo to come back anyway, and with a story like that it could take hours."
Paige opens her mouth to reply but Prue was faster "Piper is right beside I need to make some sense of it before we talk. I have film to develop, I will be in the basement."
"Was it 'Ignore Paige day' and no one told me?" Paige muttered to herself after her sister leaved.
The next morning, Piper was preparing the breakfast when Paige comes in.
"Is Leo back?" asked Paige serving herself a coffee.
"Not yet," Piper answered, "I think we should accept." She added hesitantly.
"What?" said Paige astonished. At the same moment Leo orbed next to Piper. "Piper thinks we should accept." She tells him.
"I don't think we have another choice?" Declared Prue as she comes in. "If we refuse, we can say good bye to Phoebe for good."
"If you accept, you will help a demon get his hand on a potentially dangerous spell." Warned Leo.
"Better reason to stay close to him! Prue shot back. "He will get the spell anyway."
"He said himself that the last demon ring will be hard to get, without our help he might never success." Commented Paige.
"We can't be sure of that, beside he wont be alone, Phoebe will help him and she might get kill." Said Piper.
"The only chance we have to save Phoebe is to accept the proposition. We need to earn her trust and help her remember." Insisted Prue.
"I can't believe we're going to work with a demon." Sighed Paige.
"We're going to save our sister," corrected Prue smiling.
"You better stay out of this Leo", suggested Piper, "we know you are not allow to work with demon and I don't want the Elders to be mad at you.
"It's quite the opposite", said Leo slightly embarrassed, "the Elders thought you would accept and they want me to stay with you, in fact you are my only charges until this is solved."
"What, Leo, why didn't you told us?" exclaimed Piper.
"I wasn't allow", protested Leo, "the Elders wanted you to take the decision."
"All right", said Prue taking the lead, "I will astral project to the hotel suite and give them our answer."
"Don't you want me to orb you?" asked Paige.
"No, I want to go alone and have a little conversation with 'Cole' declared Prue.
She goes in the living room, sit on the couch and astral project. She appears in the hotel suite and call Phoebe's name. No answer. A little alarm she opens the room door and sighs with relief seeing clothes and personal things in there. They weren't gone for good. She closes the door and decides to leave them a note. She was looking for a paper when she hears voices behind the suite door. A moment later Phoebe and Cole enter in the room.
"Prue!" called Phoebe "what are you doing here?"
"I wanted to leave you a note", answered Prue, "in fact I came to give you our answer."
"So", asked Cole closing the door, "are you accepting my deal?"
"We are" answered Prue, "but with some conditions."
"What condition?" asked Cole frowning.
"First you wont hurt the witches." Stated Prue.
"No problems." Agreed Cole refraining a smile.
"No killing of innocent either." Added Prue.
"Only kill the baddies, I've got it" answered Cole amused.
"And I want to see your books about the legend."
"You wont understand," remarked Cole with a mocking smile, "they are not in English."
"Try me!" Prue retorted with confidence.
Cole nod and shimmers to the Underworld. He rapidly found the books he wanted and shimmers back in the hotel suite. He put two old books in Prue hands.
"Have fun!" he told her. "Any more condition?"
"No, but I want to warn you," she said looking him in the eye, "you hurt one of my sisters and I swear I will find the way to vanquish you, even if it's the last think I do. Understood?"
"Loud and clear." Replied Cole, "now if you have finish, you better go take a look a those books because I have found the next witch.
"Already!" said Prue surprised.
"Yep, she is living in a little village call Moon Creek in Florida, there's only one Motel, so be there tomorrow afternoon, Florida time of course." Cole instructed her.
"All right," agreed Prue, "we will be there." With that she returned to her real body in the manor.
"Arg! I can't believe it." Exploded Prue as she get up of the couch, startling Piper who was getting upstairs and haven't notice that her sister was back in her body.
"What? Did something happen to Phoebe?" she asked alarmed.
"That bastard, arrogant demon found the next witch, we are meeting them tomorrow afternoon, in Florida." Prue explained.
"So fast?" protested Piper as she turned around and get back in the living room. "We couldn't find a damn thing about those witches and he already find the next one!"
"Well apparently his sources are better." Prue answered impatiently, "But if he thinks that he will take the decision alone and that we will follow, he got a big surprise coming!"
Piper repressed a smile as she understood the reason of her sister outburst. Prue was use to be their leader, the one who took the decision and having Cole, a demon, trying to take the lead was going hard on her ego. Tomorrow promise to be an interesting day. Suddenly Piper notices the old books on the couch.
"Where is that come from?" she asked, intrigued.
"Oh yeah!" said Prue cooling off, "I was forgetting about that, those are Cole's books about the legend. I thought it was a good idea to have a personal look at the story. Maybe he didn't tell us everything."
"Yeah, maybe." Said Piper doubtful, "but it will take you forever to find the right page."
"I don't think so." Answered Prue with a smile, "do you know where is Paige?"
"In the kitchen."
Prue took the books with her and went to the kitchen. She places the books on the table and asked Paige for the amulet. Holding the amulet she put her hands over one of the book and use her telekinesis, the page start flipping to finally stop around the middle of the book. She did the same with the other book.
"Great idea." Admitted Piper. "Now you just have to translate it before tomorrow."
"Why tomorrow?" Questioned Paige.
"Because our 'associate' has already find the next witch and he has decide that we are meeting tomorrow afternoon. So if you don't mind, I have a text to translate." Prue explained as she stack the 2 opens book on her arms and storm out of the kitchen.
"Ouch!" Commented Paige, "Guess she don't like his initiatives."
"Nope! Piper answered. "Well, that's not all, I still have a club to run. You want to come with me Paige?"
"Yeah sure, that's a good idea." Paige answered as she followed Piper.
When they came back home later that night, they found Prue on the couch in the living room watching a movie. She seemed in better mood.
"Do you already finish the translation?" asked Paige.
"Yep, I didn't learned anything new but at least it confirmed Cole's story." Prue answered still watching the TV.
"That's 'Kill it before it die'" remarked Piper, "It's Phoebe favourite's movie." She added for Paige.
"Is it good? I have never seen it." Asked Paige.
"Well, then you have to watch it", exclaimed Prue making a place for Paige next to her, "I think Phoebe had force us to watch that movie at least 30 times."
"Yeah, at least", laughed Piper as she sit with her sisters, "I never thought I would say that", she added more seriously, "but I hope someday she will make us watch that movie again."
"She will Piper", answered Prue confidently, "she will."
