"You're sure it wasn't listed in the Book of Shadows?" Piper asked at breakfast the next morning.

"I'm sure," said Phoebe. "I checked it three times. Nothing that even remotely resembles a demon like that is listed."

"I still can't think of a demon that fits your description," said Cole. "At least none that I've ever come across."

"Well, the Elders said to be especially careful," said Leo. "They've never heard of a demon like this and they think it might be very dangerous."

"Want me to come with you today?" Paige asked. "If this demon attacks while you're there I could at least orb you away."

"No," said Phoebe. "I doubt it will attack in broad daylight with a dozen witnesses around. So I think we're safe at least until the construction company breaks for the day."

"Well, I'm only an orb away if you should run into trouble," said Leo. "I'll keep an ear out for you."

"Thanks, brother-in-law," said Phoebe. "Now, I'd better get going if I want to find this guy before the demon attacks."

Phoebe picked up her purse and headed for the front door. She wasn't sure what to expect when she got to the construction company but she had an uneasy feeling. This David Brannick looked familiar but she hadn't been able to place where she might have seen him before.
