CENTENNIAL CHARMED

So sorry for the long period of not updating! School has been overwhelming, and I have just gotten used to the transition between the first semester and the second semester. In other words, I was SO DAMN BUSY! Ah... but yeah, unfortunately, it's still going to go on... until June... sigh...

Chapter 9

-P3- Paige and her sisters orbed into P3.

"Holy crap!" Phoebe exclaimed as she took in the surrounding environment of what was once the pride of Piper's heart.

"Phoebe... I don't think that Piper's doing so well... her breathing is uneven and shallow. Not to mention that she's bleeding everywhere," Paige said as she tried to apply pressure on Piper's slit wrists.

Piper moaned slightly from the pain. Having people press on them wasn't too comforting either.

"Sorry sweetie, but I have to try and stop the bleeding," Paige said.

"Hurts..." Piper whispered with a raspy voice.

"It's okay Piper. Just close your eyes and rest now. You're safe," Phoebe whispered, unsure as to whether she was comforting Piper or herself.

Despite the graveness of the situation, evil has no pity, for just then, two demons shimmered in.

"Get her out of here Paige!" Phoebe cried as she got in a battle stance.

"I'm not leaving you!" Paige called back.

"Don't be stupid. Get Piper to a hospital!"

"Dammit Phoebe! Fine, hold on. I'll come back for you," Paige cried and started to orb away with Piper.

However, one of the demons lunged forwards and tackled Paige onto the floor. Piper fell limply to the side as Paige continued to struggle with the demon. Suddenly, Paige felt the weight of the demon disappear, and she saw Phoebe engaged in a fight with the demon. The second demon took the opening and reached to abduct Piper, but Paige was too quick for that. She kicked the demon with all her might, hearing a satisfying crack of breaking bones.

Phoebe easily dodged an awkward punch from the first demon. She levitated into the air and kicked the demon in the jaw. He stumbled, feeling rather dazed. Phoebe did not give him the opportunity to recover, and was on him in a second. She kneed him hard in the stomach, while quickly punching him in the nose. She completed this series of attach by chopping down at his neck with her hand, and managed to knock him out.

A powerful energy ball brushed by Paige, causing her to lose her to slam lightly into the wall. The demon conjured up another energy ball to finish Paige off. He swung back, and felt a heavy weight pulling his arm down. The demon whirled around, only to receive a powerful eye jab. As he was nursing his injured eyes, Phoebe found a knife on the ground (the homeless guy's knife - remember? Paige knocked it out of his hands in the beginning) and jabbed it into the demon's abdomen. An intense flame appeared as he was vanquished.

Phoebe breathed a sigh of relief, when she suddenly heard Paige shout at her. Then, WHAM! The hard wooden leg of a broken chair connected with her skull. She felt herself go down, blood, trickling from an open wound on her temple.

Paige quickly orbed the knife into the demon, and he disappeared in a similar fashion as his fallen partner.
