Chapter Twenty-Four: Till Death Do Us Part; Part Three
Setting: July 25, 2022
It was nearing midnight, and still they had no idea how to find Cole. All they knew was that he was at the Source's chamber, and that was hidden somewhere in the depths of the underworld.
The three young witches decided that this was the night to take out the Source. They knew that Cole was captured by the Source, and the only way to get him back was to vanquish the Source.
Greg was mixing a potion at the kitchen stove. Following a recipe his aunts and mother concocted but never had the time to use it.
Sander was at the kitchen table placing the crystals and other magical traps into a messenger bag, just in case it was needed.
Pru was sitting at the table writing furiously on a pad of paper a vanquishing spell and a transporting spell. Tears silently streaming down her face.
Emma, Dan and Victor were long gone. Emma had to work in the morning, and Dan was on call.
Leo and Lavinia were in the heavens with the Elders.
"Potion ready."
"Bag ready."
"Spell ready."
The three stood in the center of the kitchen, ready to fight.
"No matter what happens tonight, we have to keep fighting." said Pru as she put her hand in the middle.
"The Power of Three" said Greg as he put his hand atop hers.
"For Cole." said Sander as he placed his hand on top.
The three smiled and Pru placed the transporting spell in front so all three could see.
We call upon the Halliwells
To gather their magic with
this spell. Bring us down to
the underworld. To face the
one who dark magic has
inured.
Their was a swirl of golden light, as the three were transported from their kitchen to the Source's chamber.
The room was very dark, with the exception of three torches on the walls. In the center of the room was a table, and chained to that table was Cole.
"Cole!" yelled Pru as she ran towards the table only to be shocked with a bolt of electricity, and shot backwards.
"Damn it!" she bitched loudly, as she stood up.
"Witch, I wouldn't try that again." came a sinister voice from behind the three witches. Sander turned around and saw for the first time, the Source of All Evil.
He was dressed in a black robe , which covered his face.
"Release him!" yelled Greg.
"No witch." snapped the Source and telekinetically sent Greg flying.
"Two can do that." smiled Sander as he flung his arm forward, but the Source stood his ground.
"You are too weak. Three years with that power is nothing compared to my five hundred."
The Source made a laughing sound, before shooting an energy ball at Sander, causing him to fly into the wall. "Why is it always me!" he yelled.
"The youngest is always the weakest." snarled the Source.
"Weak! Take this!" screamed Sander as he threw a potion at the Source, which had little if no affect.
"Let's vanquish this asshole, so maybe I can spend a couple of minutes with my husband." suggested Pru.
"I agree." chimed in Greg.
The three stood together and placed the spell in their view.
"Piper, Phoebe, Prudence,
Penelope, Patricia, Melinda,
Astrid, Helena, Laura, and Grace
Halliwell Witches stand strong beside us!
Vanquish this evil from time and space!"
There was a spark of golden light, as the spirit forms of the Halliwell witches who have gone before them stood beside them and chanted the spell.
The Source screamed in surging pain, as the exploded into oblivion, finally destroyed.
The three witches smiled as they looked at the spot where he once stood. Pru ran over to the table where Cole was chained and unconscious.
"Sander, a little help please." she begged as she tried to get the chains off. Sander walked over in a limp from being thrown into the wall. He focused his power on the chains that were connected to the table, and the chains snapped right out of the table.
"I say we get out of here." Greg said as he walked over, clasping his side. Pru nodded and grabbed a hold of all three people and orbed them out of the chamber.
They orbed back into the kitchen, to see Leo with a smile on his face, and Lavinia with a glare.
"Congratulations!" smiled Leo as he walked over and hugged all three of his kids.
"Thanks Dad, but can you heal us?" Sander asked nicely. Leo nodded and did as they asked.
"You should have told us that you were planning on killing the Source." Lavinia said as she sat down.
"We had to do what we had to do. It's no big deal, he is gone and that's the good thing." Pru glared, as she orbed out with her husband.
Sander glanced at the clock, it was one thirty in the morning, and he was tired.
"I'm going to bed. The Source is finally gone. We can sleep easier at night now." he said as he walked out of the kitchen. Greg following.
Lavinia turned and looked at Leo, "You need to tell them." was all she said before she orbed out.
Leo looked at the spot where she once was. "I know I do." he said as he sat down and pulled out a picture of Piper from his wallet and looked at it.
"Piper, what do I do?" he said silently to the picture.
"Tell them the truth, they would understand." came Piper's voice through the air. He had gotten his answer he needed to tell his kids, the one thing he never planned on telling.
He was going to become an Elder.
I hope you all enjoyed. Yes I know its shorter than I would have liked and I know its late in being updated. Uhm...review please!! The next chapter will be the next day. Will Leo be able to tell his children? and a surprise comes for both of the boys. Stay tuned for Chapter Twenty-Five! Thanks.!!
