Chapter 16

10:00 a.m.

It's the next day. (Picture this): A flea market in an alley lot. Witches and demons are walking around buying potions and ingredients etc.

Piper is walking around looking for something specific. She finally stops in front of this gypsy looking women. She whispers "I need a switch-vial potion." She whispered because she didn't want anyone hearing her. Having a switch- vial was forbidden in the supernatural world. Not to mention very dangerous. The last time she saw one of those things Prue had taken it by accident and she was hospitalized for weeks. She almost died. If it weren't for their mother and her spell Prue would have died. But her mother was dead. Her mother couldn't tell them the ingredients for the potion because she couldn't crossover like grandma usually did.

The gypsy women looks at Piper in shock. "Is this some kind of joke? No one's ask for that in years."

Piper "Yes well there's a first time for everything. Do you have it or not?"

Gypsy replies "Meet me in the back."

Piper goes and passes behind the tent the gypsy was working at. She goes to the back. There are all these potions and animal parts everywhere.

The Gypsy comes in. "Okay." She reaches over inside a safe and takes out the vial. She hands it to Piper. This is very dangerous stuff Miss. Please be careful with it. If any demon knew you had it or I sold it to you they'd come after me and kill me."

Piper "Don't worry. You're secret is safe with me. How much?"

The gypsy is about to answer when she sees Pipers wrist. She had the Charmed sign tattooed on it. She looks at Piper. "You're...you're a charmed one?"

Piper replies "Yes I am. And?"

Gypsy asks, "What would a Charmed one want with a switch-vial?"

Piper "It's for experiment. Now how much?"

Gypsy replies "Oh no charge. Just be careful."

Piper gives a fake smile. "I will." She turns and leaves. "The nerve of that women asking me what I needed the vial for", piper says to herself. It was none of her business. But the truth was she needed that Vial for herself. She would do anything to protect her family. Even if it meant making sacrifices she didn't want to make.
