Chapter Three

Paige was sitting on the couch reading a book when she was alerted to the presence of someone else in the manor. She stayed still for a moment, trying not to move as if that somehow made her invisible. She knew it must be a demon, but was it a threat?

"Hello?" Paige set her book down on the coffee table. She rolled her eyes debating over whether or not to say what she wanted to. 'Well', she thought, 'at the risk of sounding like I'm in some PG movie'... "Is anybody here?"

She sighed. 'I knew I shouldn't have said that', she thought.

Paige swiveled around as she heard the floorboard creak behind her.

Thank god this is an old house. "Alright, show yourself you cowardly demon." All of a sudden Paige found herself surrounded by the same demon.

"Uh-Oh" Paige tried to orb out, but was knocked back down. The demon must have blocked it. Just then Piper had the unfortunate lack of timing to walk in, ranting and raving about the club.

"...and now I have to shut it down because Ohmygodpaige!" She finished her sentence in four words, compressed together to form one strangled and panicked word. Piper dropped her bag and threw up her hands, trying to freeze or blow up the demon (Paige couldn't tell) but it didn't work, not to Paige's surprise.

Before the demon had time to blink, Phoebe (with equally bad sense of timing) stormed into the manor complaining loudly about her job.

"Piper, just the job-ruiner I was looking for." Phoebe said, roughly setting down her bag on the table in front of the door.

"Me! You're the one who has forced me to neglect my club and now it's being shut down! Thank you so much Phoebe, I owe you one!" Piper shouted, completely forgetting about her other sister.

"Force you to neglect your club? And tell me, just how did I force you?"

"Okay, I'll tell you."

"Okay, I'm listening."

Paige watched worriedly as red auras seemed to be sucked out of her sisters bodies and into the demons. He was absorbing their anger and it was making him stronger. Paige couldn't get a word in edgewise, and she waited. It didn't seem like the demon was hurting them much anyway.

"You made me stay at home. You were always complaining, and you wouldn't let me leave!"

"Excuse me, but I might be fired because or your petty problems and you're stupid money-guzzling club."

"MY petty problems! You..."

"Guys!" Paige finally yelled.

Piper and Phoebe turned around and phoebe saw the demon guarding Paige. Paige couldn't figure out why he was attacking, and only one idea came to mind.

"Ohmygodpaige!" Paige almost laughed, but she was still surrounded by a demon, as messed up and confusing as that sounded.

"Piper, why didn't you say something?"

"I said lot's of things."

"I mean about Paige."

"You came in the door yelling about me, I barely had time to breath."

"Hello! Guys! I'm still here!" Paige said, getting frustrated.

"Well why don't you orb yourself out?" Phoebe asked, as if discussing it over afternoon tea. As if there wasn't twenty or so demons in the house.

"Yeah!" Piper said, and Paige hoped that they would agree on things more often.

"I tried, now can you please..." As suddenly as the demon had appeared it was gone. "..get me out." Paige finished slowly.

"What. Why did he leave?" Phoebe asked confused.

"Because he heard you screaming at me and didn't want to get any of the heat. Good going sis!"

"Actually, he got most of the heat." Paige interrupted before anything could start. "It was feeding off of your anger. It obviously got enough for one trip, but don't worry, it will be back for more. You guys seem to have an everlasting supply."

"SO this is all Piper's fault!" Phoebe said, as she picked up Pipers bag and set it next to her own.

"No!" Paige jumped, seeing Piper about to respond. "Listen, Phoebe, go look in the book for the demon. Piper... you just stay away from Phoebe. No! On second thought, I'll go look in the book. You two go to your rooms and don't go out until I call you. Do not talk to each other." She watched as they walked briskly over to the stairs (both of their arms crossed) and push their ways past each other to their rooms. Paige followed shaking her head.

As she entered the attic she heard their doors slam and she walked over the book.

As she searched for the demon she came across a useful looking spell. She quickly grabbed nine white candles and a match. She was ready.
