A/N: Love those reviews. Makes me want to write more. Natalie and Sophie still keep me going, even if they don't know I write Fan Fiction! I just read theirs and listen to them talk about all the fan fiction they've read.

Chapter 4 Soul Stealer

Everybody turned to face Chris, who hadn't said a thing throughout the whole conversation.

"The soul stealer?"

Asked Paige.

"The Soul Stealer demon is widely known throughout Europe. It steals others souls. So far, there has been only one sighting where a witch has lived to tell the tale. There has been twenty people disappear off the face of the earth."

Chris told nobody in particular.

"So has anyone fought it before?"

Phoebe asked.

"Only one person managed to get away from it before. Just before it came after you three. The young girl, at her school in England, didn't know she was a witch. She was shit scared and managed to say a charm her grandmother had told her when she was younger."

"What's the charm?"

Phoebe asked Chris.

"Nobody knows. As soon as she said it, she forgot it."

"That's why it isn't in the book."

Piper said as she walked through the door. She had the book in her arms. She placed the book on the table and opened it to the last page. It was titled 'Soul-Stealer'.

"I was beginning to worry that it wasn't in the book. But here it is."

Piper told everyone. It was a victory to know this much on a demon that nobody has ever faced or said anything about. Not much, but it could help them.

"It says here that it will only take on the form of a friend."

Paige read aloud.

"That could be useful."

Leo said.

"How exactly? Are we meant to hurt a friend?"

"No, but maybe you could hurt an enemy."

Chris said. He pulled the book towards him. He skimmed down the page.

"Here."

He pointed to a paragraph that read 'Don't hurt me. I am a friend. If you touch me, your friend will feel my pain.'

"How is this going to help us?"

Phoebe said.

"Think about it. If you hurt the demon, it will hurt your friend. But maybe, just maybe, we can convince it to hurt an enemy."

Chris said.

"I get it now. Turn it into an enemy and then vanquish it."

Paige said.

"Exactly."

Chris told her. But the others weren't convinced.

"How do we turn it into an enemy?"

Phoebe asked. Piper's face lit up.

"We befriend an enemy. If we have an enemy for a friend, the demon will become our enemy, not a friend."

Piper said. Everyone turned to her. They were all confused.

"Simplify that please."

Paige said. Piper grinned at her.

"Just tell Darrell/Demon, that we are going to vanquish Barbas."

And with that, Piper went to take the book upstairs. Everyone left in the room was blown away.

"Well, you heard the lady. Go tell Darrell/Demon that we are going to vanquish Barbas."

Leo told them.

Paige took Phoebe and went back out into the living room to find Darrell/Demon looking through the photos on the shelf. They were of friends and family. All of a sudden, Phoebe collapsed on the floor. Paige was starting to feel very weak as well. She rushed over to Phoebe and tried to wake her. But it was an impossible task. She got Leo from out of the kitchen to put Phoebe onto the couch with a wet washcloth on her forehead.

"Darrell, we are just going out to find and vanquish Barbas."

Paige told Darrell/Demon.

"But what about Phoebe?"

The demon sounded concerned. Paige looked at Leo.

"I'm going to stay here with her. Just in case."

Leo reassured him.

"Okay. Well, I've got to go anyway. I'll come back later to see how she is."

"Thanks Darrell."

Paige walked Darrell/Demon to the door and waved goodbye. She shut the door behind him and sank up against it. She was feeling very weak.
