Chapter 5: Rest

Jeric, the mummifying demon leaned onto a car and watched Phoebe drive into the parking lot and get out of the mini, "great body. Mind if I borrow it for a while?"

"Yeah, I do," she pointed behind him, where Piper, Leo, Paige and Cole orbed in with Piper waving a hand and blasting Jeric into a pile black sand.

"Why was it again you said this might be a difficult demon to deal with?" The oldest sister looked at Phoebe.

"Never mind," her sister smiled, "I'm more worried about this being the first demon we vanquished in six month. What if the aliens saw it?"

"I don't think that could happen," Cole stepped next to her, "their spies are long gone and if there was going to be an extermination, the ship would be here already like last time. Since I was going to kill myself anyway, I didn't give a damn when it all happened for the first time, but I did notice it back then as well. And it's not here now, nor coming, I can assure you, I shimmered all over the galaxy just to be sure."

"I say we celebrate that," Paige offered, "and the fact that we can go ahead and crush demons now. I missed it terribly. With the Seer keeping back everybody from attacking innocents, well, where's the fun?"

"And maybe a little toast on your remarriage," Leo suggested, "nice that you didn't even invite us."

"It was...just a private occasion, just a promise to each other, nothing fancy. You know, big weddings never go according to plan in this family," Phoebe blushed, thinking about what they did afterwards.

She glanced at her husband, seeing his lips curl up in a wayward grin, "I don't mind a recount celebration ..."

The End.
