Chapter Four
They (Piper, Phoebe and Paige) had gone to the site of Irene's premonition only to find nothing there, so they concluded that it would happen the following day. Irene trudged along the hall in a shirt and pair of pants, which were just too big for her. She accidentally tripped on her own clothes and fell face forward and hit Paige's bedroom door.
An angry Paige swung the door open.
"What the hell are you doing?"
Irene slowly got up, scared by this voice of hers.
"I'm scared of that guy." Irene whispered, freaked out.
"Ten years old and still afraid?" Paige shook her head and slammed the door in Irene's face.
Shocked and insulted, Irene slowly walked down the to Piper's room, she opened the door just a crack and peeked inside. Piper said something and then giggled. Leo gave her a kiss. Making a face, Irene closed the door softly.
Feeling rejected and left out, little Irene sighed and started walking back to her room when the door to Phoebe's room opened.
"What wrong sweetie? You look upset."
"I'm scared. Paige didn't want me in her room so I went to Piper's room, but she was busy smooching Leo." Irene said, her head lowered.
"Aw. it's alright, come sleep with me." Phoebe led Irene into her room and closed the door.
The door to Paige's room slowly opened and Paige peeked out, inspecting the hallway. She tiptoed down to Phoebe's room. Opening the door a crack, she began muttering something under her breath.
Moments later, both Phoebe and Irene fell asleep. With a satisfied smiled on her face, Paige entered Phoebe's room and performed a ritual. Phoebe and Irene's faces glowed for a second and then went back to normal.
Paige breathed a sigh of relief and quietly made her way back to her own room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Down in the underworld, an angry Flowberon was muttering to herself, her head lowered.
She stopped her chanting and an evil smiled was playing up on her lips.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A little girl skipped down a busy San Francisco street in the remains of the afternoon sunshine. She hummed softly to herself as she continued to skip home. The girl made a turn on the left and entered a dark, deserted alley. This was where she lived. She stopped abruptly as she heard heavy breathing form behind her.
She spun around and saw a tall figure dressed in black from head to toe. For some reason, the sky had turned a dark patch of purple and it looked as if it were going to rain. The alley became dark and the girl saw nothing but a tall, shadowy figure.
"Hello? Is anyone there?" She asked. When she got no response, she shrugged and started to walk away.
"Come here, you little witch!" An angry voice hissed.
Irene turned around immediately and saw Flowberon. She screamed and turned to run away, but Flowberon grabbed her shoulders and brought the little girl face to face with her.
The girl screamed even louder as she felt Flowberon's cold breath on her face. Flowberon was an inch away from her mouth when the little girl felt the strong hands letting go of her shoulders. She opened her eyes and saw a woman.
Flowberon was on the ground, breathing heavily. She got up angrily and threw the woman against a wall. She hit the wall with a loud bang and slid to the ground.
The girl gasped and took off. Flowberon smirked and shimmered in, in front of her. A look of horror crossed her face.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Meanwhile in the Halliwell manor, Piper, Phoebe and Paige were getting their jacket, planning to leave to save their innocent.
"Leo, we're leaving Irene with you for a little while, okay?" Piper said, kissing Leo on the cheek.
"Yeah, yeah, and it's not like I have a choice anyway." Leo sighed.
With the vanquishing potion clutched tightly in their hands, they orbed out.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Piper, Phoebe and Paige reappeared in a swirl of white lights just as Flowberon straightened up. They watched with disgust as the girl's body slowly took form of a skeleton.
Flowberon took a glance at the woman, who was unconscious on the ground and shimmered out before the three of them could raise their arms to throw the potion.
They froze for a second, taking everything in. Phoebe glanced around and ran over to the woman.
"Do you think she's okay?" Phoebe asked Piper.
"Dunno, maybe we should take her back to the house?" Piper insisted, trying to avoid the girl's skeleton, which lay in the middle of the alley.
Along with the unknown woman, they orbed back to the manor.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Leah opened her eyes and saw three unfamiliar faces hollering above her. With a look of confusion on her face, she slowly sat up.
"Who - who are you?" Leah asked, slowly edging towards the door.
"You're with that demon aren't you? She sent you, didn't she?"
"Oh, um, it's okay, we're not evil." Phoebe assured her.
"Who are you people?"
"You mean you don't recognize us?" Piper asked, standing next to Phoebe. She motioned for Paige to come.
The three of them posed and smiled sheepishly.
"What are you guys doing?" A voice called from the stairs.
Piper turned and saw Leo and Irene coming down the steps.
Piper turned back to Leah.
"Okay, I quit this posing thing, we are the Charmed Ones." Piper told her. Leah gasped loudly.
"I can't believe it! I never thought I would get to meet the Charmed Ones!"
"Yeah, yeah, whatever, now tell us, who are you?" Phoebe asked.
Leah opened her mouth to speak, but stopped short when she saw the silver pendant around Irene's neck. She continued to stare at it, as if a invisible force was pulling her into it.
"Hello? What's wrong with you?" Paige asked, waving her hand in Leah's face. She snapped back into reality.
"Um. sorry," she answered, feeling a little uneasy.
"What's wrong? Why were you staring at Irene's pendant?" Phoebe asked, getting a little suspicious.
"Irene? This is Irene?"
