THE CHARMED
Chapter 9: "Saved By The Bell Part 2"
Christina looked up. She was in a strange world that that appeared more like a jungle.
"When I get my hands on that bitch, she is history!" she said.
MEANWHILE Adam and Michele landed in the Underworld. They went through a few tunnels and where about to enter a room before Adam stopped Michele.
"Michele..." Adam stuttered.
"Looks like we are going to have to fight our way to the cube!" Michele said nervously.
Guarding the cube were about 50 soldiers.
"On the count of 3 we barge in and blow them all up! 1...2...." Adam counted off,
"THREE!" Michele finished.
They jumped in the room and soon all the demons were running towards then to attack.
Michele and Adam were getting hit hard, but the other Demons were getting blown up. Adam telekinetically threw 10 demons at a time. However the Risons's Cube kept producing more demons like a sperm bank!
"This...is...awfully...exhausting," Michele said tired out.
Pretty soon they were only 10 demons in the room. Adam went to Rison's Cube and blew it up. All the demons vanished.
"Thank goodness!" Adam said out loud.
"GABRIELLE!!!" he yelled.
No one came,
"Maybe she cannot here you," Michele suggested.
"Ugh.....let me try this spell," Adam said. "Stuck in the Underworld, Down in the Sea, Take Me Back Out, Blessed Be." The two vanished and were back in the Manor.
"GABRIELLE!" Adam yelled again.
"Yes?" she orbed in asking.
"How come you didn't orb us out of there?" he asked.
"I can't hear you when your are down in there," she said.
"Why didn't you tell us this before?" Adam replied.
"Umm..." Gabrielle was trying to think of an excuse. "It slipped, I am real sorry," she lied.
DOWN THE STREET "Cory wait!" Arielle yelled for him.
After seeing Cory in the streets, wreaking havoc, Arielle and Rachel chased him into an ally.
Cory turned around and a fireball sprung from his hand.
"Uh oh," Rachel said.
He threw it at the two, but Rachel froze it.
"Ugh what do we do now?" Arielle asked.
"Step out of the way," Rachel demanded, She then unfroze the fireball which went straight into the concrete wall.
Arielle used her mace attack to blind him.
"CORY CAN YOU HEAR US?" Arielle yelled.
"HELP!" came from Cory's mouth.
"No, you fool!" the Virus began talking again, drowning out Cory's plea.
Cory once again threw a fireball at them, which hit a tree, putting it on fire. Rachel turned to Cory and threw and electric ball at his head.
"HELP ME!" they heard Cory say again.
Rachel threw it again.
"HELP!!!!"
"Rachel it seems to be working, They said Virus is wrapped around Cory's head right? So all we have to do is kill the demon by hitting Cory's head, this way it won't effect the real Cory afterwards," Arielle noticed.
"Makes sense!" Rachel said. She took one more electrical ball and launched it at Cory. Cory fell to the ground and the spirit of Virus lifted from his head and exploded
"Bingo," Arielle said.
They went over to see if Cory was okay.
"Hey Cory are you all right?" Rachel asked.
Cory looked up and to Arielle and Rachel's surprise, he had glowing red eyes.
He picked them up by the collar and electrical currents streamed from his body into theirs. He dropped them, both unconscious, and blinked away.
Adam and Michele were out of the Underworld, and Gabrielle orbed them to where Arielle and Rachel were left unconscious.
"What the hell," Adam said running over.
Gabrielle was a bit hesitant.
"HEEL THEM NOW!" Adam yelled.
Gabrielle healed them. They both sat up looking very dazed.
"What the hell happened to you two!?" Adam asked.
"Well, we vanquished Virus, but Cory is still evil'" Arielle stated.
"How do you figure?" asked Gabrielle.
"Well, his eyes glowed red and then he electrocuted us," Rachel stated bluntly.
"Oh. Well that's odd," Gabrielle replied.
"Ever think that Cory could be a demon?" Adam asked.
"I doubt that," Arielle said as she put her hand on the cement where some of Cory's blood dropped from the fight. A premonition that struck, showing Cory and the Charmed Ones in another battle.
"What's wrong Arielle?" Adam asked,
Arielle looked up. "Premonition. I saw us fighting Cory again. Let's get to the Book of Shadows ASAP."
Gabrielle took the group to an alley and they orbed to attic in the Manor.
They opened the book and Rachel called out, "Cory!"
The pages didn't move.
"Um okay," Rachel said puzzled. She tried again saying "Good people turning to demons!" The pages turned to a page about the demon Colden, who turned good people to half demons.
"No, that's not him," Arielle said.
"Okay well if Virus infected Cory and he was still a demon afterwards, then maybe Cory was always a demon before hand," Adam suggested.
"Okay, let's see. I'll try demon mood changes!" Rachel yelled out.
"Why the hell would you use that?" Adam asked.
The pages turned to a page that read "Demon Psychosis."
"That's why," Rachel smiled
Arielle read aloud, "Demon Psychosis: Many demons find the right of way. They do not want to do evil anymore. They go undercover and live as another ordinary human being. However, one exposed to evil, they have the tendency to snap and return to their demon forms."
"So which demon is Cory?" Adam asked.
Rachel called to the book, "Electrocution."
It took them away to find the specific team till Arielle got a premonition on the page of Mrone,
"That's our demon," Arielle said.
"Mrone: Went Undercover after the Source killed both of his parents. Has the ability to electrocute till death. Vanquish unknown," Adam read aloud.
"Great so now we got to find him and vanquish the poor man," Arielle said.
"Why do we have to vanquish him?' Rachel asked. "After all he was trying to be good."
"Because he is not good now. We cannot always save the world and right now Mrone is very dangerous," Adam answered.
"Well how are we going to find him?" Michele asked.
"Gabrielle wil orb me and I'll soak a little of his blood on a tissue and scribe for it," Arielle said.
Gabrielle orbed Arielle and she took the blood sample. She scribed for it and he was at a nearby factor.
"What is he doing there?" Adam asked.
"Let's find out," Arielle said.
Gabrielle orbed the group inside the factory. They used flashlights to get around, because it was after-hours.
Just then, every overhang light turned on in the domino effect, Twenty yards ahead stood Mrone and a tall, thin man,
"Foolish witches. How predictable is it to come after the bad guy in the dark factory," Mrone said.
Michele stood frightened.
"Hello Michele," the tall, thin man said.
"Tim," Michele acknowledged.
The Charmed Ones got the hint. The tall, thin man was Tim, Michele's demon- turned husband.
"Hello my dear wife," Tim broke the silence.
"I am no longer your wife," Michele answered.
She reached for her left hand to pull of her wedding ring.
"We can still be together," Tim spoke quickly. "Join me and you can live forever and happy."
Michele looked down. "Fine," she said to him.
"But Michele.." Rachel tried to intersect.
It was too late. Michele stood next Tim and gave him a hug.
She whispered into his ear, "Yeah in hell." She then pushed him to the ground.
"Fine have it your way and die!" Tim said.
Mrone gathered electricity in his hands and shot it towards Rachel but she froze it. Adam telekinetically threw it back at Mrone but he dodged it.
Mrone shimmered away. He came up from behind and held Michele against her will, with a knife to her neck.
"Knife!" Adam yelled.
The knife orbed to Adam and Mrone was left in suspense. Arielle used her burning heat powers to blind Mrone. Adam leaped at him and stabbed him.
Mrone fell to the ground, but not dead. Instead his spirit lifted from his body.
"I'm not done yet," he said. The soul vanished.
Tim snickered. He reached in his pocket to grab gypsy power that would create an explosion. He threw it towards The Charmed Ones who were then tosses to the opposite side of the factory.
"Gabrielle," Arielle called out.
She was nowhere to be found.
"Now you are mine Michele," Tim said.
"Rot in hell!" Michelle yelled. She began to speak a gypsy spell.
"Evil eye protect this will, kill the evil," she spoke over and over again.
Tim got a painful look in his expression. His body began to be covered with flames.
He called out for Michele.
"Michele its me, Tim. I'm back," Tim gasped out his last words.
"Don't listen to him. He is lying, You cannot break evil that is inside of him if it has not been touched," Rachel called out.
Tim was gone, burnt to ashes.
Michele stood with tears in her eyes.
"Come on, let's go home," she said.
"Where is Gabrielle?" Adam asked.
"She probably got summoned," Arielle answered.
They left the factory with Adam turning back one more time to look for Gabrielle. Something was wrong.
The group was back at the Manor.
"I still do not understand why Mrone did not die," Adam said.
"Well, he was a demon of revenge. His only motive was to kill the Source and all who stood against it. In the process he hurt innocents and we protect them so he went after us. His spirit will not rest till the Source, or the TRYO, is killed," Rachel explained.
"Yeah I guess that makes sense. So we never found out why I can orb things to me since Gabrielle is MIA," Adam commented.
"Don't worry, I am sure she is fine," Arielle calmly said.
"For now, I am going to sleep. I am beat," Rachel said.
"That makes two of us!" Michele said.
"Make that 3," Arielle chimed in.
"Sorry again for your husband," Adam said.
"It is okay, he was not my husband anymore. He was evil. His good half of him was gone," Michelle answered.
The girls went up to bed. Adam stood in the kitchen.
"Something is going on with you Gabrielle. And I will find out," he said to himself out loud.
ON THE NEXT "THE CHARMED" The group begins to realize who Gabrielle really is after a premonition triggered by Arielle. Now they are in a race against time to save Christina and defeat a future evil.
