Paige walked into the Slythern common room, intent on retiring early for the night. About halfway across the room, she looked up and realized the Slytherns had formed a ring around her. All of them were smiling wickedly, contorting their already ugly faces even more.
Draco Malfoy stepped forward grinning, "Welcome back Paige."
Paige looked around, she was surrounded on all sides, gulping she returned Draco's icy look with one of her own.
"Can I help you with something?" she asked him polity.
"Yes, you are a disgrace to the Slytherns. It was bad enough that you were hanging around with Potter, but now you are friends with the Charmed Ones? You go against everything we stand for Paige, so, in the name of Lord Voldmort, CRUSEISO!"
Paige fell to the floor screaming the pain blotted out every other thought in her mind. She screamed as thousands of needles perched her skin. She screamed until Draco raised his wand and the pain stopped.
All around her the Slytherns were laughing, jeering at her and calling for more. His grin widening, Draco once again raised his wand and yelled the curse.
This time when the pain hit Paige it was worse, she tried to control her powers, but she was losing, and when a new wave of pain hit her, her control broke and she orbed out of the room. Her whitelighter senses found Piper and Phoebe, and before she could gain control, she found herself in the Gryffindor common room.

Piper and Phoebe were in the process of trying to think of the best way to go after the Source when Paige orbed right in front of them. She was lying on the floor panting and her face was really pale.
"Paige!" Piper yelled and rushed over to see how she was.
"Did the Source attack again?" Phoebe asked looking worried. She glanced around the room and found that every Gryffindor in the common room had gone deadly silent. They were all staring at the three of them. "We have to get out of here, Paige, they've already seen you orb, so can you take us home? Are you up to it?"
Paige nodded.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Harry, Ron and Hermonie stood dumbfounded like everyone else in the common room.
"Let's get out of here." Hermonie said, "We need to find out what happened."
"Are they demons?" Harry asked.
"It would explain why they tried to convince us we weren't the Charmed Ones." Ron said.
The three of them headed to the library and began to look for books on demons.
A half-hour latter they were sitting at a table with about twelve books in front of them.
Each of them picked four and began to search.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Draco sat on his bed trying to understand what had happened. They had been teaching Paige a lesson when she had disappeared in blue and white lights. Reaching into his pocket he pulled out a small mirror.
When he looked into it a face that wasn't his starred back at him.
"Yes?" his father drawled. Draco began to relate to him the events of the last few days, finishing with, "Do you think Voldmort should know this?"
"Yes." Was his reply, "You have done good work son, I think you might be able to join us soon."
Smiling Draco put away the mirror. His dreams would soon come true.
