A/N: I guess this story has been quite confusing, so I'm hoping this chapter will clear up any questions that have been unanswered.
Chapter 6: Answers
"Piper," Paige said. "We have to get Phoebe. We can't take him on without her." They orbed back to the manor.
"Well, we need to get Chris," Piper said.
"Not without a potion," Paige said. "Let's go to the Book and look to see what that vanquishing potion would be."
"You go," Piper said. "I'll wait here for Phoebe."
"I'm his sister-in-law," Phoebe said to the desk receptionist. "Of course I can sign him out."
"I'm sorry, Miss," she said back, "but we can't let him go. He's having hallucinations and if we let him out, he could be a threat to society."
"Leo is not crazy and he is not hallucinating."
"He says that Dr. Greene is working for a 'demon'."
"Oh no," Phoebe said. "I need him out now. I am a relative and I can at any moment release him from your care."
"Not when we have a court order."
"A what!"
"Dr. Greene thought you might come back for him, so he talked to a judge and got a court order stating that Leo remain in the facility. I have it right here if you want to look at it."
Phoebe stepped back. She walked to a deserted area of the lobby. She reached in her purse to call Piper. The phone rang a few times until she heard Piper's voice.
"Piper, they have a court order saying that Leo has to stay there," Phoebe explained.
"What!" Piper exclaimed.
"Leo says that Dr. Greene works for a demon," Phoebe said. "They think it's a hallucination, but Dr. Greene was the one that got the court order so obviously he's having help. I think it's the judge."
"We just met up with a demon named Detrok," Piper said. "Maybe that's who he's working for."
"Maybe, but I'll check up on this judge."
"Paige and I are working on making a vanquishing potion for Detrok now, so we'll be there soon."
"Okay. See you then." She closed her flip-phone. She walked back up to the desk. "May I see that court order?"
"Sure," the lady said. She reached down and got out a blue piece of paper. It was signed by Judge Bredford. Phoebe gave it back and took a trip to see this Judge Bredford.
A loud explosion came from Paige's potion pot. She coughed a few times. She got a vial and put the potion in. She then went downstairs to meet up with her sister.
"Is Phoebe back yet?" she asked.
"No," Piper responded. "Bad news. There was a court order issued stating that Leo can't be discharged from the hospital."
"Oh no," Paige said. "I'll orb him out."
"No," Piper said. "We have to settle this some other way. Police would be here within five minutes of Leo's disappearing act. Phoebe is on her way to see the Judge that issued it now."
"Let's go," Paige said, grabbing her car keys.
Phoebe walked into the city building. She took the elevator up to the third floor. She got out and walked to the receptionist.
"May I speak to Judge Bredford?" she asked in the sweetest voice possible.
"No, he's busy."
"I'm really getting sick of you receptionists," Phoebe said, her voice turning darker. Her eyes started to glow with an orange ring around her iris. "I need to see him now." The receptionist started to go into a trance. She answered in almost a robotic voice.
"Sure, right this way." Phoebe was puzzled at this. The receptionist walked her down to an office. She opened the door and Phoebe walked in. The receptionist walked back to her desk and sat down. She instantly forgot what had just happened.
"Hello," Bredford said. Phoebe walked up to him. "Have a seat."
"I'd rather not," she said. "I want to know why my brother-in-law is forced to stay in a hospital. We put him there, we want to take him out."
"You must be…Leo's sister-in-law?" he asked. "I'm sorry, but I've been informed that he is quite…how should I put this…crazy." He had a wicked sneer on his face. Phoebe looked into his eyes. He looked pure evil, but she couldn't prove it. Phoebe then heard a certain sound she knew oh-so-well. Piper's freeze. Piper and Paige walked in.
"Is that him?" Phoebe asked. Piper looked him over.
"No," she said. The judge instantly formed an energy ball. "But it appears it doesn't have to be him."
"Energy ball!" Paige yelled. The energy ball came to her and she threw it back towards him. Piper froze it.
"Don't," she said. "Remember what happened the last time we killed a judge?" She turned back to the judge. "Now if you want your life spared, you sign to let Leo go, and you resign from your job and go back to your hellhole where you belong."
"You won't kill me witch," the demon said. "You said it yourself." He formed another energy ball.
"He's got a point, Piper," Paige said. Phoebe looked into his eyes. The same orange ring formed around her iris.
"Do what my sister said," Phoebe said. The demon looked at her and in that same trance he wrote a release form and shimmered away. Paige and Piper looked at Phoebe in shock.
"What the hell was that?" Piper asked.
"I guess I have a way with demons," Phoebe said innocently.
"Not just that," Paige said.
"What do you mean?" Phoebe asked.
"You like hypnotized that guy," Piper said.
"What?"
"Okay, let's deal with this later," Paige said. "Let's get Leo out."
"Damn, it's good to be out of there," Leo said once he stepped into the manor.
"I bet," Piper said. They walked out of the entrance hall. The living room was a pig sty. "AH!" she yelled. "What happened here?" she demanded. Juklin was sitting in the middle of all this.
"You said make myself at home." They heard another scream from the kitchen.
"It's a mess in here!" Paige yelled. Piper glared at Juklin.
My house looks like its been hit by a rig,
Turn this demon into a filthy pig!
Juklin transformed before their eyes into a pig. He let out a small snort and walked over to Piper.
"Thanks a lot," he said.
"Upstairs now!" she yelled at him. "You're lucky we're having beef tonight!" Phoebe said a quick spell and the mess was picked up.
"Screw personal gain," she said. Paige entered the living room.
"Thank God," she said. "I was feeling dirty just looking at it." The sisters walked up into the attic.
"Alright now," Phoebe said. "How bout telling us everything about Detrok."
"Oink," Juklin said mockingly.
"Okay," Piper said threateningly. "Pork chops for supper." The pig gave her an evil look.
"He's a demon," Juklin said.
"And bacon for breakfast."
"He told me to bring Chris' ghost back so that only Leo can see him. He also sent a demon to fill Leo's dreams with Chris. His plan was to make it so that Leo felt guilty and became vulnerable. But his plan worked out just as well for you guys sending him to a mental institution. You played right into it."
"Why bring Chris back for that?" Paige asked.
"And why would they want Leo weakened?" Piper asked. "What could they want with him?"
"To weaken you, which would in turn weaken your sisters. A seer predicted that with Leo dead, you guys would be as well as dead." Piper went downstairs to bring Leo up with her.
"Why go through all the trouble of that though?" Phoebe asked. "Leo's a human, he could easily be killed."
"The seer predicted that Piper would go on a demon hunt and kill thousands of demons with Leo killed. So if he committed suicide, she would think it's a normal death."
"Weird that a demon would think like that," Paige said. "But it still doesn't explain Chris coming back. Wouldn't that ruin his plans? Chris would just tell Leo that the dreams aren't true."
"There's more to it. Besides killing Leo, he wants Chris to join the dark side. He'll corrupt Chris' mind with such anger and hate, that he will slip to the dark side."
"Now your starting to sound like Yoda," Phoebe said.
"Who's Yoda?" Juklin asked.
"Never mind that now," Paige said. "We have to get to Chris' good side before Detrok gets to his dark side." Paige paused. "You're right, we do sound like Yoda."
"I'll get the light sabers," Phoebe said sarcastically.
"Who's Yoda?" They ignored him. "Hey, how bout changing me back?"
"Oh yeah," Phoebe said. "Piper should be back up pretty soon." A few minutes later, Piper walked in with Leo.
Punishment served for your evil sin,
Turn Juklin back into a weak ol' demon.
"Weak?" he said, once back to his original form.
"Watch Leo," Piper said. "And if I find one thing out of place when we get back, it's off to the spirit realm for yourself." Paige grabbed Phoebe and Piper and orbed away. Juklin and Leo sat down.
"Who's Yoda?"
