Chapter 14
"I hate to break up this heart-breaking reunion," a voice said sarcastically, "But you are all under arrest,"
We broke apart and turned around. Paige gasped and Piper looked furiously at the owner of the voice.
"Inspector Cortez," she said snidely. Darryl was standing just behind Cortez with an apologetic look on his face.
"I'm sorry, guys. I tried to stop him," Darryl explained.
"Oh, please. What's he gonna do? Shoot us?" Grams mocked.
"Easy, Grams, not all of us are dead, remember?" Phoebe pointed out. Despite the situation, I couldn't stop myself from smiling.
"Now, we can either do this the easy way or the hard way?" Cortez said with a smirk.
"Or we could do it my way," Cole suggested, forming a ball of what looked like energy in his hand. Phoebe hit his arm lightly.
"Get rid of that!" she whispered sharply at her boyfriend. He frowned and the ball of energy disappeared. I didn't know what it was but by Phoebe's reaction, it probably wasn't the solution.
"You really expect us to come with you?" I asked, earning a sharp look from my birth Mom, telling me not to go there. I smiled sweetly at her and carried on "I mean, how are you going to get two dead people, three…Erm—" I didn't know how to continue seeing as I had no idea what my sisters were.
"Two dead witches, two living witches, two half-witches/half-whitelighters, a full whitelighter and a demon to come with you?" Cole continued for me. I guessed he was the demon. And I knew I wasn't dead. So did that make me a witch or a half witch/half whitelighter? I'd have to ask my sisters later. Okay, that sounded weird: my sisters.
"Don't make me shoot you," Cortez warned.
"Shoot me? What do you think that will do?" Cole asked smugly.
Paige looked across to Cole.
"Er-Cole. It might not hurt you but it will hurt us you know," she said as if we needed remembering.
"Even if you did get us to the station, it's not like you have any proof," Piper said confidently. I had no idea where she had got all that confidence from but it probably wasn't helping us in any way. Cortez had a video camera; that meant we were on film.
"All you've got on that camera is three women finding out they have a long-lost sister. It's not exactly what I would call hard evidence," Piper pointed out.
"What are you going to arrest us for anyway? It's not illegal to practise witchcraft," Paige added.
"You're all arrested on suspicion of murder," Cortez explained finally. Murder? But he had the wrong person.
"You think we killed Prue? How could you think that?" Phoebe whispered shrilly. I could tell she was freaking out.
"I don't know what to think. But what I do know is that you people are evil and dangerous. All those unsolved cases linked to you, they were you. Morris was just covering for you wasn't he?" Cortez accused, not waiting for an answer.
"But that's over now, all those unexplainable murders, they won't happen anymore, not once you're where you belong; locked up and –" Darryl hit Cortez over the head with the barrel of his gun and Cortez fell to the floor; knocked out cold.
"I think you've all dealt with enough today," Darryl said, explaining his actions.
"Thanks," Piper replied.
"Look, Darryl, you have to go," Phoebe started.
"No, Phoebe I can't do that," Darryl said immediately.
"You have to; otherwise you'll get blamed for this. We'll take care of Cortez," Phoebe insisted. Darryl nodded and quickly left the attic.
"So what are we gonna do with him?" I asked, not sure if I wanted to know the answer.
"Well, there are plenty of witches in the room, I'm sure we can think of something. Start rhyming," Grams instructed. Rhyming? What the hell? What would that do?
"You can do that?" Paige asked. "I mean, we've made up spells before but only summoning spells and vanquishing spells. Not spells to get rid of people," Oh, so they were going to make a spell to get rid of Cortez? This could be interesting.
"Yeah, sure. It's easy. Just start chanting:
Take him back,
Take him away.
Remove him now,
Don't let him stay," Grams said. Was making a spell really that easy? Grams motioned to Phoebe to continue the spell.
"We call the spirits, to help undo,
And send him off to…" Phoebe paused, trying to think of a word "Timbuktu!" she finished loudly.
The Inspector's body disappeared.
"That was so cool!" I shouted excitedly. Phoebe looked just as surprised as I did.
"It worked!" she said triumphantly. Piper, on the other hand, looked kind of angry.
"Timbuktu? You sent him to Timbuktu?" She screamed. Oh, that was why.
"It was the only thing that rhymed with undo," Phoebe tried to defend herself.
Leo spoke up for the first time in a long while.
"Don't worry, I'll find him," he said and suddenly his body was engulfed in blue and white lights. Once they had disappeared, Leo was no longer standing in the attic.
"How did he do that?" I asked.
"It's called orbing, you and I can do it too," Paige explained.
"Really?" I asked again, getting excited.
"Yeah, it takes a bit of practice but I'll teach you if you like," she answered.
"Thanks," I replied.
