Chapter 9: We're screwed
A/N: Here's the next chapter. Since its march break and I don't have school, so I can update more often. I am very close to a major plot twist, but it's a secret. By chapter 11 you'll know what I'm talking about. In the spell in the last chapter, look carefully at the wording of the spell. Kyle won't forget.
When Paige and Kyle orbed into the manor they saw Phoebe on the floor, with a gaping wound in her chest, bleeding profusely. Kyle immediately rushed over and healed her. The blood slowly disappeared. When it was completely gone, Phoebe gasped and quickly sat up. Paige was shocked to see that her sister was still shaking. Kyle noticed to and attempted to heal her again. The shaking did not subside. "What is it Phoebe?" Paige asked, her voice dripping with concern.
Phoebe took a deep breath and recounted all she had seen less than an hour before. "Th…that demon…I saw him. He…he was the first, the first of many. He threw a fire ball at me and then he left. I saw more demons, they keep coming. There were too many of them. They killed us all…" Phoebe's voice shook and died. Paige and Kyle looked at her for a moment in stunned silence.
"Okay", Paige said, pushing a stray lock of hair behind her ear. It was something she did when she was nervous. "Let me say, we're officially screwed."
Phoebe stood up and shook her head. "We can handle this", Phoebe said quietly. "You call Piper, and then we'll have the power of three." Paige nodded and headed for the phone. "I'll check the Book of Shadows for any of the demons I saw", Phoebe added. Phoebe walked up to the attic. She still couldn't shake the uneasy feeling she had. She knew something was about to happen.
"I'll be here if you need me", Kyle called up the stairs. Phoebe and Paige smiled and thanked him. Several moments later, Paige got off the phone with Piper.
"Piper's on her way", Paige told Kyle.
"Good", Kyle replied. Suddenly a swishing noise caused them both to spin around. Dozens of mid to upper level demons had just shimmered behind them. They were all different kinds, all with a single goal. They wanted to kill them. "PHOEBE!" Paige yelled. She heard rushing footsteps coming down from the attic.
When she reached the foot of the stairs, Phoebe caught sight of the demons. She blanched as they began advancing upon her. "Crap", she muttered. That's when all hell broke loose… "LEO!" Phoebe called, fighting multiple demons at once.
The electric green demon with scaled skin and yellow bulbous eyes grinned as he advanced on her. He had hundreds of jagged teeth crowded into such a small mouth. "He can't hear you", the demon snarled. Paige was right, thought Phoebe, We're screwed.
