Benjamin clenched his fist in rage and screamed at her, "You what!?"
"I told you, I don't have the blood." Max told him. "I left it somewhere."
Benjamin slammed his fist on the desk.
"I need that blood and I'm going to get it from you one way or another." He said angrily through gritted teeth.
Max waited. Should she call out the sisters?
"Kill her." Benjamin commanded. The guards started coming at her.
"I need some assistance!" Max called out.
Prue, Piper, and Phoebe came out and were immediately ready to fight.
When Phoebe saw the man she froze.
"Cole?" She asked.
"Why must everyone mention him to me!?" Benjamin said angrily.
"Phoebe, it isn't." Piper said soothingly.
"I said kill them! What are you waiting for!?" Benjamin asked and the guards went after them.
Max kicked two guys' asses before she saw Benjamin sprinting up a flight of stairs with all her information.
Prue just knocked a guy out and told her, "Go! We can take care of them."
Max wasn't sure, but when Prue tossed another guy against a wall with her power, she knew they could handle it and dashed off after Benjamin.
She found him on the rooftop. He was trying to jump across to the next roof and was about to when Max cleared her throat. He whirled around and looked at her in fear. He knew about the X-5s and was aware of what she could do to him.
"Well, Ben, it's the end of the line." Max told him. "You can either jump or give me the file."
Benjamin glanced down...it was a long way, but he took his chances. He leaped across and managed to grab the roof. He pulled himself up and stared at her.
"You had your chance." She told him and jumped after him.
They went several rooftops until Benjamin knew that he couldn't reach the next roof.
"What'll it be Ben?" Max asked walking toward him.
Prue had just knocked out one of the men using the old astral decoy when Piper tapped her on the shoulder.
All the men were knocked out and weren't showing any signs of waking up anytime soon and Phoebe was on the floor next to the desk crying a little.
Prue and Piper immediately rushed over to her.
"Are you alright?" Piper asked.
"Are you hurt?" Prue asked.
"No and yes." Phoebe answered and wiped away her tears with her sleeve. "I can't believe it. He looks just like him...just like him."
Prue and Piper exchanged glances and Prue went to the computer.
She pulled up a few files and scanned them.
He was Phoebe's son...her future son. And he was really doing this to her.
"I-I can't back down now. Lydecker'll-ll-"
"Never know." Max interrupted him.
"He won't? Benjamin asked.
"No. You didn't tell him anything." Max said. She was sure he was breaking down. He was crouched down on the "floor" after all.
Benjamin looked up at her with an evil smile. "I didn't tell him anything, did I?" He stood up. "But a dead X-5 is as good as any X-5...and I wasn't lying about sickness. Someone in my family needs that damned miracle blood of yours." Benjamin formed a ball of blue energy in his hands and Max looked at it in amazement and terror.
"What-what is that?" She asked.
"Oh this? You can thank my parents for it. They passed along their gifts to me." Benjamin explained.
He then threw the folder with all of the information on Max into the air and released the energyball. It made contact with the papers and burned them instantly. Nothing was left.
Max tore her gaze from the sky where the folder once was and looked at Benjamin.
"A dead X-5...a live X-5. Makes no difference to me...forget Lydecker...this is for me." Benjamin said and a knife magically appeared in his hands.
The fear then faded from Max and she focused on the fact that it was just a jerk with a knife...he wasn't any different from the other jerks with knives, so she got ready to fight.
He went into his fighting stance as well, then they circled each other for a while and Benjamin lunged at her.
Max grabbed his wrist and flipped him backwards.
"You've got to do better than that Benny-boy." Max told him.
Benjamin formed another energyball and threw it at her. She flipped to avoid it and looked at him questioningly.
"I don't care anymore. I will kill you if I have to." He told her. "There are others out there...I can have their blood."
Max knew that now it was more serious than ever. Benjamin got to his feet and Max knew she had to get that knife.
He tried another attempt at tackling her, but she was too quick. She grabbed his wrist and he slammed to the ground, but instead of letting go, she twisted his wrist and he screamed in pain then dropped the knife.
She scrambled to pick it up then he warily lifted his head and she threw it as far down the street as possible.
Benjamin got on his feet again and smiled at her, then shimmered away.
Max took a fighting stance ready for an attack on any side. She had no idea how he did that or what was going to happen.
Without her knowing, Benjamin shimmered in behind her with the knife. She would have been dead right then if astral Prue hadn't appeared and kicked him in the side.
His loud 'oof' made Max whirl around and when she saw astral Prue, she smiled. Astral Prue smiled back then disappeared.
Max turned her attention back to Benjamin and she grabbed him by the scruff of his neck.
"Give up now and you won't die." She half screamed at him.
He had a cut on his lip and he was pretty bruised but he still managed to curse her.
Max got fed up. She lifted him up then kneed him in the stomach. He fell to his knees then passed out, sprawled on the roof.
Prue, Piper, and Phoebe had appeared on the roof of the original building and Max went to meet them.
"I can't believe this. I can't believe this." Max heard Phoebe whispering over and over.
"Let's go." Max said in half a whisper then they left.
"I told you, I don't have the blood." Max told him. "I left it somewhere."
Benjamin slammed his fist on the desk.
"I need that blood and I'm going to get it from you one way or another." He said angrily through gritted teeth.
