A/N: The idea of the demon in this chapter taking Chris was established in one of my earlier fics.

Chapter 2: The Four Corners

"Who are you?" Phoebe asked.

"How is that any of your business," one of them asked.

"Come on," another one of them said. "Be nice." He turned to Phoebe and took her hand. "I'm Charles," he said planting a kiss on her hand. He had light brown hair and bright blue eyes. She had to admit, though he was a good five years younger than her, he was quite attractive.

"Hi," she said back to him. "I'm Phoebe."

"Ah-hem," one of the girls said. She gave Charles and evil look.

"This is Annie," Charles said. Annie had shoulder length, straight, reddish brown hair.

"I'm his wife," she added.

"Oh," Phoebe said embarrassed.

"I'm Paige," Paige announced.

"Hi," the other guy said to her. "I'm David." David was taller and had dark brown hair and dark blue eyes.

"You two aren't married are you?" Paige asked.

"No," the last witch said. "I'm his sister, Jordan." Jordan had dark brown hair and the same blue eyes as his sister. Her hair was thick and long. Paige thought that David was really cute. He smiled at her and she gave him a big smile back.

"Hello!" the cab driver yelled. He hadn't been watching what had happened. "Are we going?"

"Yes," Phoebe yelled. "Shut up, would you?" She rolled her eyes. "We'd like to know more about you," Phoebe said. "Meet up with us later at the Scottsdale Hotel lobby at 8:00. Well, if you want to that is."

"Of course we would," David said. Annie rolled her eyes.

"We need to find Rindo," Annie insisted. "He got away this time," she said glaring at Paige and Phoebe, "so we need to find him while he's weak."

"We have two more witches to help us though," Charles said. "They can help us vanquish Rindo."

"We still have a sister at the hotel," Paige said.

"Three of you?" David asked.

"Oh my!" Jordan exclaimed. "You're the Charmed Ones!"

"Wow, we're famous," Phoebe whispered to Paige.

"We're the Four Corners," Annie said. "I'm the power of the North."

"I'd be the power of the West," David said.

"I'm East," Jordan said.

"And I'm South," Charles said.

"Really?" Paige asked.

"We'll meet you later tonight," David said. Paige and Phoebe got into the cab and drove back to the hotel. It was almost six-thirty. They were fifteen minutes late.

"Where have you two been?" Piper asked.

"We met up with some people," Paige said.

"Guys?" Piper asked.

"Sorta," Paige said. Piper rolled her eyes. They took another cab to the restaurant they had reservations for.

"Anyways, Piper," Phoebe said. "We're going to meet them at eight in the hotel's lobby. They need our help."

"With what?" Piper asked. Phoebe leaned in towards her.

"They're witches," she said. "And powerful ones too."

"Then why do they need our help?" Piper asked.

"They're going up against a really strong demon," Paige said. Piper's voice got whiney.

"This is supposed to be our vacation," Piper said. "Why do we have to spend it fighting demons?" She said that last part a little too loud and people around her started to look at her. She smiled at them. "Go back to eating," she said to them. "Fine," she said in a whisper. "We'll meet up with them, but I don't see why we have to help them."


"Well, where are they," Piper asked. It was eight-fifteen and there was no sign of them. Suddenly the hotel door opened and they walked in.

"Hi," Phoebe said. "This is our sister, Piper." They all said their names again.

"Now, what do you want us to do?" Piper asked. Phoebe elbowed her.

"What can we do to help?" Phoebe asked, in a nicer way.

"Well, maybe if each of us use a spell," Jordan suggested. "It might be enough to vanquish him."

"I'll orb home and get the Book of Shadows," Paige said.

"No," Charles said. "We have our own." The sisters looked at them puzzled.

"There's more than one?" Phoebe asked.

"Guess so," Piper said. "What are we waiting for then? Let's get this over with." A few minutes later, they were in the Four Corner's home. "Where do you guys keep your Book?" There house was enormous.

"This way," Annie said. They walked through a narrow hallways on the first floor. "It's in here." They walked into a room with candle's everywhere. There was a podium, much like their own, at the other end of the room. Along one side of the room, was a cabinet of potion ingredients and extra vials.

"This sure is impressive," Paige said.

"Yeah a lot better than what we have at home," Phoebe said. Piper took that as an insult and gave Phoebe a nasty look. Their Book of Shadows had a large square tilted to become a diamond. Each corner had a letter which represented either north, south, east, or west.

"Let's see this demon," Piper said. They opened the Book to his page. "Him!" Piper yelled.

"Who?" Paige asked.

"It's the demon that takes Chris," Phoebe said. Piper held her son tighter.

"But it says he's easy to kill with a simple vanquishing potion," Paige pointed out. "You said that in your premonition, Piper couldn't stop him."

"He was simple to destroy until he made a deal with a very powerful demon and became ten times as strong," Jordan said.

"Now he's almost invincible," Annie said. "We haven't been able to stop him yet."

"Have you tried spells?" Paige asked.

"Do you think we're dumb?" Annie asked. "Of course we tried spells."

"Jeez, sorry. Just trying to spring up some ideas."

"We better get weapons to fight some of his demons," Charles said.

"Weapons?" Piper asked. "We don't use weapons."

"How do you fight then?" David asked.

"We use our powers, potions, and spells," Phoebe said.

"Well so do we, but it's useful to have some extra firepower," Jordan said.

"You guys use the weapons," Piper said. "We'll use the potions."

"We don't need them," Charles said. "We should probably use our powers anyways."

"I have two strong vanquishing potions made," Annie announced from the other side of the room.

"We better get going then," Phoebe said.

"What about Chris and Wyatt?" Piper asked.

"They can stay with out nanny," Charles said. "Rita!" A small elf appeared in a red shine.

"Yes?"

"Do you mind taking care of these two extra children?" Annie asked.

"Not a problem." She took them and walked out of the room.

"Are we ready now?" Annie asked. "Let's kick some demon ass."
