"Looking for this?" Celebrian motioned into the air and it appeared on the table. Phoebe made a grab for it, but the girl moved it telekinetically across the table. This stricked Phoebe odd, for that had been Prue's power. That was twice that she had thought about Prue in two minutes. "What do you want?" Phoebe was getting annoyed with this girl, who seemed to have no purpose other than cause misery in their family. She hadn't tried to steal their powers, because she already had them. She hadn't tried to get the book, and if she wasn't lying then she did touch it. She didn't want their cooperation in the over throw in the underworld. What did she want? "I want to be free, and I think that Wyatt can do that for me." Phoebe was shocked, she hadn't expected the girl to come out in the open and tell her what she was trying to do. "Free from what? A demon, a warlock?" Celebrian hung her head, and Phoebe found herself feeling sorry for the girl. Was she just trying to free herself from something that was keeping her from moving on? She didn't answer. For a while they stood immobile, Celebrian examining the grass, and Phoebe examining her. When she looked up and began to speak she was interrupted by Phoebe's cell phone ringing. ' "May I get that?" Phoebe thought it ironic. She was asking this fifteen year old girl, who had kidnapped her only nephew, if she could answer her phone. Celebrian nodded. Her purse flew back across the table with a flick of the girl's wrist. Phoebe grabbed her phone and thanked good when she saw that it was her sisters. "Hello?" "Hey Phoebe... we found out a lot about this girl, and we might know how to get Wyatt back. Darryl brought the files over, and she's really twenty- four, so she's probably a demon, and the potion isn't going to work on her." "Okay... she's here with me now. We were just having a little chat." Phoebe glared at Celebrian, all pity vaporizing into nothing. She was twenty-four! Wow, looking good. "She has Prue's powers." Piper faltered. On the other end Phoebe could hear her breathing hard. It was obvious in her reaction that she too had not thought about Prue in quite some time. It was painful, but unavoidable in the current situation, it may be a valuable clue. "All of them", Piper finally asked. "I don't know telekinesis. I'm not sure about... the other one." "Listen; just be careful, because she could be very dangerous. See if you can get her to slip where she's keeping Wyatt. Her name is Rose" Piper hung up before further comment could be made of Prue. Phoebe could be sure that Piper was most likely holding back tears, still stationed at the phone. Phoebe hung up the phone and looked at Rose. She tried to read her thoughts. Hadn't she performed the spell to read other people's minds? As hard as she tried she could get nothing, and it was the same with her empathy. Celebrian, no Rose, was completely untouchable. Phoebe couldn't help but wonder where she had got the name Celebrian. Rose was such a pretty name. "Do you live with your parents?" "They are dead. I know what you're trying to do, and It's not going to work. Wyatt is safe, don't worry about that, but he's not going to be returning to you any time soon. He knows my name now. He calls me R... Celebrian." "Really? He doesn't call you Rose? Isn't that your real name?" Rose's eyes widened in surprise and then receded. "Piper is a very smart witch. She better watch her back." Rose's eyes flared up with unseen fire, and she disappeared, leaving Phoebe by herself. She looked around and muttered to herself, "I've got to get home."
Ten minutes later she arrived home. Paige answered the door. She told Phoebe that Piper was in the living room with Darryl, pouring over files and papers. Leo had gone to check with the elders to see if Celebrian was really a demon, or what else she could be. Chris hadn't made an appearance since that morning, and Leo couldn't sense him, so Piper figured he had gone to the underworld to hunt for information. "Okay thanks. I think you better come in the living room so you can hear what I have to say." They sisters walked into where Piper was sitting. She didn't look up, and she seemed deeply absorbed in her information gathering. "Piper, can you put that down for a second, I have something to tell you." Phoebe reenacted their conversation at the function and then sat silently. Piper was sitting with her head in her hands and her brows deeply furrowed. Paige too seemed to be deep in thought. At long last Paige spoke up. "So you think that maybe a demon is holding her captive, or using her, and Wyatt may be her way out of that prison." "I think that's a possibility, but that we have to keep our minds open. It is a theory, and I'll go look it up in the book of shadows right after this." Phoebe looked at her other sister. "Any ideas?" "She could be cursed. Remember when we saved that ghost town from a town loop, with Prue?" Phoebe and Piper flinched, but she continued on. "What if she's cursed to stay fifteen until she does something. Maybe Wyatt is the only way she can access the kind of power that she needs in order to force herself out of this curse, whatever it is." "Possible. I'm going to go check. I'll be in the Attic if anyone needs me. Call me when Leo gets back." Phoebe got up, but then she turned back to Piper. She concentrated hard on Piper, looking into her eyes, but she couldn't read her mind. She tried to levitate, and found she couldn't do that either. "Piper", she said grabbing a pillow from the couch. "Freeze this." She threw it right at Pipers face. Piper threw up her hands, but found to every bodies amazement that she couldn't. Darryl, who had been sitting quietly suddenly, got up. "I think I'd better leave." "Good Idea." Paige grabbed his coat, and helped him out the door. When she got back Phoebe asked her to call for something. "Pillow!" Paige called at the pillow which was now laying on the floor. Nothing happened. All of the powers that we used on Cele- Rose aren't working. Piper, you tried to freeze her and blow her up, I tried to levitate and kick her, and Paige tried calling for Wyatt. It's not working. I'm going to look in the book." Things were getting fishier and fishier. Rose was turning out to be a bigger threat then any of them had imagined.
