Part Four
Leonora

"Noooooooooooooo!" Leonora screamed as her mother, the one person in the whole world she actualy cared about sat bleeding on the floor, at the mercy of this dark stranger.

Now that Leonora, Cassandra and Brian were together in the darkness full of nightmares, everything was ten times more horrible. Cassandra had to be held up by Vrain, she had been there the longest. Too long. They had all been there too long. Leonora was the only one with strenth left to sream.

Everything stoped. There was a light. What was it? Cassandra saw it first. It was Meilnda. She was talking with the demon. What? Was she on his side? No, never, thought Cassandra. I hope.

Melinda looked at the half-dead figures of her brothers and sisters. She wanted to kill the demon right there and then. But then her siblings might never come out of their slumber. It was up to her.

Brian wished he still had the energy to kill this guy. Leonora did, but she was too bubble-headed to think of it. He would tell her but he coulen't speak. He was so tierd. So tierd...
~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Cassandra wached her brother slid to the floor and slid with him. She had no energy even to be worried for him, or herself. She wished she could die.

Suddenly she was filled with a little energy. The lasy reserveres she had been saving for when she would fight him. As soon as Brian woke up she would fight this horrer of a man.

Leonora, though I can't tell you how knew her sisters plan. She agreed. They would take this idiot down. With Leonora at the head of their party. She would hurt him for hurting her mother. Again and again. I'll hurt him mom. I'll hurt him for you.

Meilnda would be the hardest to get. Takquen knew that. She would put up a fight. If she killed hime though, he would kill her own kin. And what a tragity that would be. He would get her. He hated her. He would get her.

Melida was shoved into an ally. She had been on her way home from the grocery store. She didn't know who had her, but if they didn't stop trying to make her go somewhere she didn't want to go, well she had alot of anger to burn. Literaly.

Before she knew what was going on, she too, had fallen through the blackness. To the pit of nightmares. She knew what was going to happen. Brian was waking up. The man was back.

Leonora could stand, without support. So could everyone else. Sommehow they all knew the plan. HTey walked forward. The man smiled He tought they werte drained of powers. He was wrong, so wrong.

Leonora raised her right had, and twiched her figers. Melinda proceded in setting the pit they had been stuck in for so long on fire. Cassandra foted above it all keeping Brain and Leonora above the lames that licked at what was left of their clothes. Melinda couldn't be hurt by the fire. Leonora was preoccupied in beating on the man who had them her to notice anything else.

The blackness was lifting. They were in Cassandra's bedrom. They demon was flying towards Cassnadra's stained glass window. and he stoped. Piper stod there her hand out in front of her. The children were oddly awake, having, in this world been asleep for so long.

Leonora dropped the man to the floor. Melinda through the pouch of randon spices for good sleep that she had been sent to the grocery store to get at the unmoving figure, still frozen.

He wen up in blue flames that made you feel warm and happy inside. Like a nice dream.

A month later, most things ere back to normal. For some reason Cassandra was the only one who had a hunted look in her eyes, so long after the battle of yet another demon. She had been in there so much longer then the others, who were finaly able to tell what theyhad seen.

Melinda was fine. She had only been in there an hour or so. Cassandra was the one to worry over. She thought as her mother asked if she was alright. She said yes, just fine, and her mother went to check on the others.

Melinda sighed. Being a witch was becomeing to personal. To hazerdous. Oh well.
