Chapter Twenty-One: The Fair Witch Project

Synopsis:
Billie reveals Christy's plans for Leo to the sisters, narrating the fight that preceded her wrestle with Piper back at the fair. What are Christy's plans, what does she want?

Billie was following, spying on Leo and the boys when Christy suddenly appeared with a herd of demons, frightening some passers-by with their flaming and shimmering in and scaring to death those who were merely stunned by means of fire and energy balls.

A fireball flew her way and Billie took refuge behind the bin she was to later throw on Piper as Leo made a shield of himself for his sons.

Some of the demons enjoyed themselves by running after the last citizens while Christy stepped forwards toward Leo. Billie stayed where she was, waiting to know what Christy could possibly want with him.

Casting a bemused look at his arms held behind his back to protect his kids, Christy laughed, "I take it you know who I am."

Leo didn't answer, staring defiantly at the demonic lot. Christy started pacing back and forth before him. "Now, now, no need for pleasantries, right? Then let's get to the point." She halted in front of him again and locked eyes with him. "Word has it that you are the one who hid away the Grimoire four years ago. But see, I want the book. So tell me, where is it?" Leo still said nothing.

"The woman asked you a question." One of the demons used his telekinesis to make him bend and Leo found himself kneeling at Christy's feet.

Billie ran out of her unsteady hideout and used her own power to send the demons flying back – some stumbled on more bins, others hit walls and circus tents. Billie yelled at Wyatt to activate his shield as she jumped down on Leo.

Both together they rolled out of harm's way as fire and energy spheres flew all around. They landed on their backs near a bunch of brown boxes, by a red circus tent. But the assaults soon ceased, giving time to Billie and Leo, clearly stunned, to help each other up after some time pondering.

"Billie, dear," Christy cried in a falsely contented voice. She had her hands raised: she was the one that had ordered the truce. Her face soon showed her anger. "You have thwarted me once more, sis," she let out in a hiss, "I won't permit it again." She pointed to her with one angry finger, "Get her out of my way!"

The assaults restarted and Billie held out her hands to send spheres, athames and the like back until there were too many for her to deflect. Leo ducked, grabbing her and pulling her down with him to save her from sideways attacks.

As she rolled on the ground and saw an energy ball crash right next to Leo's head, she heard, "Watch out for the mortal, we want him alive for now, you idiots!"

Well, there it is. Don't know much what else to say lol. So now you know. Eager to see the sisters' reaction? To know the end of the scene? NEXT! If I get a review ;-)
