After breakfast, Piper and Chris started to do the dishes. She would wash as he would dry. The suds smelled like jasmine and slightly tickled. Chris took a plate from his mother and started to wipe the dish towel across it's pearly surface.

Suddenly, the plate dropped from his hands. He gasped as his mom flung out her hands. The plate froze in mid-air. Chris went to touch it but his mother stopped him. She knew that if a witch touched a frozen object it would unfreeze. With that she grabbed the plate an put it in the cupboard.

(meanwhile)

Paige was in the attic. She was flipping through the Book of Shadows looking for a demon that had attacked them recently. She stopped at a page in the ancient text as Phoebe and Piper came in.

" Any luck?" Phoebe asked. She came to the book. " Kappa demo?'

" Yeah." Paige answered, looking down at the magical page. " A Japanese water demon who feeds on human flesh. This aquatic demon waits under a bridge waiting for the unsuspecting waider and devours them." read the half witch. She looked over at her oldest sibling.

" Vanquishing spell...or a potion?" questioned Piper. She came over and stood next Paige's right.

" No...wait!" Paige replied, moving a piece of brown hair out of her face. " To vanquish a Kappa, you musttrick it into bending over. The water they hold in their head will empty out and immobilize the demon. Then,most magics will destoy it."

" So basiclly...make it bend over and blow it up?" Piper asked. Paige closed the book and nodded. Phoebe smiled and walked over to the table with potion ingrediants. She picked up a vile with griffon's blood and poured in a few drops.

" Whatcha' makin' Pheebs?" Piper asked walking over. She watched as Phoebe added a feather from a Barn Owl.

" All purpose vanquishing potion." stated the middle sister. She added a few more ingrediants berfore it poofed. " There, all we need is part of the Kappa."

" On it." Paige said and orbed. Ten minutes later she reappeared in a flurry of lights. The youngest Halliwell sister produced a vile with a green powder in it.

" Powdered Kappa talon...Richard?" Phoebe asked, taking the vile. Paige answered with a 'maybe' and smiled.

" Mom!" Chris yelled. Piper ran down the stairs with her sisters in tow. She saw Chris climbing up the stairs. He had a big gash on his forehead.

"Leo!" Piper yelled. The whitelighter appeared and knelt down next to his youngest. Placing a hand over his forehead, a golden glow radiated from it sealing up the gash and cleaning up the blood.

" What happened?" The worried mother said, hugging her child to her.

"Park...Wyatt...Kappa!"
