They're Everywhere Part 1

There was a significant change between Estelle and Prue's relationship. Phoebe and Piper thought it'd be a step forward but it wasn't. Prue was gentler and caring around the girl but Estelle was closed off. She became stiff under her touch unlike the other night. When any of the sisters tried to talk to her the girl's voice was quiet and she seemed more timid.

One evening Prue entered Estelle's room and saw the girl on her bed looking through several books.

"Hi Estelle," she said, "I had those pictures framed, the ones we took about a month ago." She still didn't look up and Prue sat next to her. She glanced over at the books. One name popped out.

"Estelle, it's not safe to go after Odin. You don't know how powerful he is."

"He has to die," she said.

"He does and you will kill him but only when you're ready. Estelle, you have to trust that my sisters and I know best."

"I can't. I can't trust you. I can't even be friends with you. With you or your sisters. I didn't come here for friendship Prue," Estelle said, "What happened last week was a mistake. It was a lapse in judgement on my behalf." Prue didn't know how to respond to this.

"You're allowed to be upset about what happened to your village," Prue said after a while quietly. Estelle looked away from the witch not responding.

"I don't want to discuss what did or didn't happen," Estelle finally replied, "All I want here is an alliance. I just want you to help me return home without dying first."

"We've been helping," Prue said, "We will continue to help you Estelle. Whether or not you trust us. You should though, we are the Charmed Ones. If there is anyone you can trust, it's us." And with that she left the girl's room.

Prue told her sisters and Leo what had happened. Leo said it explained Estelle's behavior and was normal for Fae. Piper and Phoebe could see that Estelle's actions hurt Prue, only for a moment though. She quickly masked them as and then asked Piper what would they be having for dinner.

Phoebe tried to engage with Estelle during the meal but she barely said a word. Prue seemed indifferent while Phoebe attempted the various conversation starters with the teenager. Piper finally stopped Phoebe and talked with her about going away with Dan.

The following morning Piper drove Estelle to school and returned to the Manor and started packing. Prue suddenly bursts into Piper's room.

"What are you doing home?"

"I think Jack is a warlock."

"Jack?

"Jack Sheridan, the guy from the auction house," Prue said and then explained to Piper him appearing in two different places in just seconds.

"Do you think he blinked?"

"That's what warlocks do, right?" she then asked of Phoebe's whereabouts. Piper replied that she was volunteering at a hospital.

"Okay, well, you're probably the one to know about a warlock test." Piper stopped packing and looked up.

"What is that supposed to mean?" she asked.

"You're the one who is a warlock magnet," Prue pointed out.

"Jeremy was the only warlock! I'm not a warlock magnet," Piper said, "You had Rex and Hannah at work."

"You get them in your love life, I've got them at the water cooler. What's up with the suitcase?" she asked.

"I'm going away with Dan. I talked about it at dinner last night, remember?"

"Right," she said as the doorbell rang, "You did check to make sure he isn't a warlock right?"

"He isn't a warlock," Piper said and listed off the various things that identified one and left her room.

Estelle's POV

Focus. Breathe. Don't look back. Words of a pervious professor. I had to use them today. Otherwise I would not get through my classes, my normal classes. The sisters didn't know that I started normal classes today, I had the note from the principal in my bag, the note stated that I would start new classes Friday. I had had it all week; I just hadn't given it to them. I had to focus. My first class was Algebra II in room 210. I entered 210 and the teacher nodded, knowing who I was. I sat in an empty seat in the back corner. I heard the bell ring and a group of students were in the doorway, they were laughing and then one person a boy, entered and sat next to me.

"I'm George, are you a new student?" he asked.

"Kind of," I stated and I turned to look at him. He seemed to looking behind me, just above my shoulders.

"What's your name?" he asked focusing back on me.

"Estelle," I replied.

"It's nice to meet you Estelle," he said and then faced forward. I didn't reply because the professor- teacher, started to speak. I stayed after the bell to speak with him about homework. When I left the class I felt people watching me but after looking around there wasn't anyone looking at me.

Throughout the morning I went to American History, English 10 and then lunch. There was a girl in my history class who I thought was watching me as well. She had dark chocolate skin and brown eyes. There was a boy with blonde hair who seemed to look at me in English.

I skipped lunch as usual and sat outside in the courtyard reading a book. I did eat an apple though knowing if Piper found out I ate nothing she'd be displeased. The same group of students from this morning sat at a table not too far from where I sat.

"We're not telling them, they probably already know," one said.

"It's our job to tell them Jacob," the girl in my history class said to him.

"It's not like we chose the job. We were born into it," he replied.

"We should at least say something," another said, it was George, "I was the first to see, you know. I thought they were all... gone."

"So did I, as do our bosses. They should know, in case they don't. What if there is a whole family of them? Generations that they don't know about?" the girl said.

"Which is why I say we don't tell them; they want to stay concealed. Unless our bosses bring it up, drop it," Jacob said standing up, "I've got to get to Calc."

"Jake, come on man," another boy said walking after him.

"I can't stand our bosses George but we made a deal. Do you really want to think what they'll do if we break it?" the girl said following the other boys. He sighed and stood up walking off. The bell rang ending the lunch period. Who were they? What were they?

I was unfocused in the rest of my classes and was glad when the final bell rang ending the day. Piper as usual asked me questions, such as how school was, and if I made any friends. I replied like I always did, it was fine and I had no friends. I then asked her to stop asking the questions as they had no purpose to my goal. She didn't reply but she kept glancing in the looking glass that was to her right above her head.

When we arrived in the Manor Phoebe was looking through the Book and said something to Piper about the Collectors.

"Estelle, do you know anything about Collectors?" she asked showing me their page.

"No, these demons are after Camelot's time," I told her. I didn't recognize them. They could have been under a different name of course. I tried to remember but these demons weren't in any of my memories.

"Are they after an innocent?" I asked.

"Yeah," Phoebe said, "The Collectors are going to go after him just like they did his dad. Why don't you come and help? It'll get you demon experience, for later."

"Sure," I said and told them I was going to put my bag in my room.

Piper pulled Phoebe into the kitchen leaving Estelle with the innocent in the conservatory. Estelle didn't bother trying to hear the sisters conversation as she was already distracted with her own thoughts. These thoughts were of the students she had overheard today, she stopped thinking when she was interrupted by the innocent.

"How do you know them?" he asked.

"They saved me," she said, "I was attacked by demons a month ago."

"Were they collectors? Do you know valuable information like my father did?"

"No, but they could come after me I suppose. If they wanted to know about my homeland."

"Your homeland?"

"Camelot," she replied as Prue entered the Manor, "It was destroyed." Prue casted a glance at the two as she walked through the dining room and into the kitchen. She could tell by Phoebe's face that her baby sister knew of their spell casting. Then she heard Phoebe think it.

I can't believe you cast that spell! You're always lecturing me about personal gain! She thought.

"We thought these guys were demons," Piper said trying to explain.

"You pricked Dan's finger to check!" Phoebe said and Prue cut in explaining about the guy she thought was a demon. She stopped talking when she heard Estelle tell the innocent he couldn't leave.

"Phoebe, make sure he doesn't leave. Piper, work on anything that can stop these demons. Estelle and I will go and talk to Jack," Prue said and they entered the conservatory.

"You really shouldn't leave. It is not safe," Estelle said trying to convince Eric to stay. Phoebe pulled Eric back onto one of the sofas and began to explain the situation even more. Piper eventually froze him when he tried to get up.

"Estelle, you're coming with me. Grab your jacket," Prue said opening the front door. Estelle grabbed the jacket, that Prue had lent her several weeks ago and left the Manor. The drive to Prue's work was silent, at least it was vocally.

Why did she want me to come? Is this some sort of trap? Is she taking me to the demons? She thought. Prue said nothing as she heard the girl's thoughts.

Or is there another reason? But what other reason could there be? Does she know about Gwen or Margaret?

"We're here," Prue said as she pulled up at her work, "There's someone here who might be a warlock. I thought you'd be able to help me."

"How could I help you?"

"You might be able to spot demons better than before. You may get a weird vibe from them. It'll be good practice otherwise," Prue said.

"For when I return home," Estelle said, Prue nodded not being able to say she didn't think the girl would ever go home. They entered the building and she waited in her office. She pretended to work at her desk while Estelle looked around. Jack entered the office and smiled at Prue.

"Good to see you working," he said.

"Yeah," Prue said as Jack closed the door.

"Hey," he said to Estelle, whom was by Prue at her desk. Prue stood up.

"Hello," she replied.

Pretty. Prue's eyes narrowed.

"What do you want," she asked him her voice cool, stepping in front of Estelle.

"Just wanted to stop by," he said.

He's not the man that stopped by the other night. He is different, not by his looks, but he is different. He isn't a demon. He would have attacked by now, surely. Estelle thought.

"Who's your friend here?" he asked.

"That's none of your concern," Prue replied realizing that Estelle was right and she heard his voice again.

Someone's protective, he scoffed, Jack didn't mention the blonde.

"Where's Jack?" Prue asked.

"I'm right here," he said faking a laugh, "Something wrong Prue?"

"You're not Jack," she said her voice becoming cooler. Suddenly another Jack came in. Prue and Estelle looked from one Jack to another.

The one who just came in is the guy from the other night. I can see he recognizes me.

"You're obviously the real Jack," Prue said looking at the one who entered, "Would you care to explain what is going on?"
