Chapter Seventeen: Supernatural Tracking Device

Cole shimmered into his lair, and strolled over to the large stone pool. He said a phrase in Latin and he saw Neal. He watched the young demon with interest. So far Neal didn't seem to be doing anything unusual. But, Cole continued to watch. After an hour of watching the source finally found something of interest. As he watched the young demon walk to his room, he saw pictures on the wall. Cole decided to shimmer into the young man's room. Cole was invisible to the Mikros demon, so he could go around as he liked. Cole got a better view of the pictures on the wall above Neal's desk. The picture was of a young man; Cole raised an eyebrow in surprise. The boy looked familiar, but he couldn't place a finger on who he was. He kept looking at the pictures, all of the boy; apparently the young man was in high school. He saw the boy in a picture with three girls. Cole's eyes widened when he made out the face of his daughter in the picture.

The source decided he had gotten enough information and shimmered into the living room of the Hallowell house. Everyone was sitting down obviously awaiting Cole's arrival.

Piper glared at Cole, she didn't trust him. "So?"

"Well," Cole began "I went to Neal's room and found some pictures and they had that guy who was at dinner. When Neal and I came over."

"Guy?" Phoebe asked.

"If that's his name, then yeah." Cole answered.

"Why would he be after Guy?" Paige thought out loud.

Paris thought for a moment, and then it hit her. "Because Guy will be the first in his family to ever graduate from high school." Her eyes were wide, anger slowly rising up inside her.

"Will he attack at the school?" Leo asked the source.

Cole shrugged. "I don't know; all I know is that he must be after Guy."

"Okay," Paige started. "So let's assume he does attack at the school. Where would he attack?"

"That would be to exposing, he wouldn't attack there." Cole stated.

"Then what do you propose we do?" Paige retorted.

Paris pondered for a moment and then asked "Is the some kinda spell that can tell us when Guy's in trouble? Like a supernatural tracking device?"

"Let's see." Piper replied. Seth and Leo orbed Phoebe, and Piper to the attic. Both Paris and Cole shimmered up, while Paige orbed. When they arrived the four Hallowell witches crowded around their book. Piper turned the pages as the other three waited for any spell that would help.

After five minutes of searching Piper read the title of a spell aloud. "For safety of an innocent." She scanned the spell and then continued "We need the following holy water, a piece of flesh from the innocent, wormwood, eye of newt, and salt."

Phoebe clapped her hands and smiled "Okay so, flesh. I suggest that sense we have no clue when Neal will attack, Paris and Paige will get the ingredients ready while Leo, Piper and I will get Guy's flesh."

The ones whose names were mentioned nodded in reply, and everyone set out for their task ahead.

Leo orbed two of the charmed ones into Guy's bedroom. the room was a mess as teenaged boys rooms usually are. There were clothes scattered all over the floor, the bed was unmade, and school books lay around in no particular order.

Piper noticed that Guy was nowhere to be seen. She let out a sigh and stated "I guess we'll have to wait for him."

Phoebe nodded, and was about to reply when the door swung open and Guy appeared. When he finally realized he wasn't alone he was froze by Piper. Phoebe took out the knife she had brought along and hesitantly scrapped the boy's flesh. When she had gotten a piece, the three stood behind the boy. Piper unfroze him and Leo quickly orbed them out of the room and back to the manor.

The three arrived inside the kitchen where Paige and Paris had the ingredients ready to start the spell. Seth sat at the table along with Cole who had decided to stay, to the disappointment of both Seth and Phoebe. Seth had come to terms with Paris being the source's daughter but that didn't mean he had to like it. But being the polite Englishman he is, he was being as nice as possible.

Paris looked at her mother and asked. "Get it?"

Phoebe nodded in reply to her daughter's question.

"Alright; let's get this party started." Paige smiled.

Phoebe and Piper walked to the counter where the ingredients had been laid out. Piper found a slip of paper with the instructions to the spell on it and the four began to start the spell. Paige orbed a ceramic mixing bowl onto the table and the four sat down around it. In a clockwise motion starting with Piper; they began. Piper poured the holy water, Phoebe threw in the eye of newt, Paige sprinkled the salt in, and Paris dropped in the piece of flesh.

The four grabbed the hand of the person next to them and began to recite the spell:

"Unable to see the time of attack,

An innocent life at stake,

We ask the powers him to track,

To save him for futures sake."

And at the end of the spell a large explosion of smoke appeared. ^^Hopefully it works.^^ Paris thought.
