Trick Or Charmed?
Summary: Set in 2006. As Halloween arrives, so does Barbas, but this time he doesn't want the charmed ones, not Wyatt, not Chris, he wants Billie. Planning to bring her fear of Halloween being her last day just like it was for her sister all those years ago. Can Billie overcome her fear and vanquish Barbas?
I must warn you, I have not seen season 8 so I'm sorry if I get things wrong, however I read spoilers, scripts, look at screen caps and watch video clips, so I'm pretty confident ;-)
Chapter One: Halloween Resurrection
Orbs hovered in the air as Piper froze the disappearing whitelighter,
"hey, what's wrong?" Phoebe asked, entering the attic wearing jeans, pointed cream boots and a matching turtle neck,
"this guy just orbed in, said the Elders want to see Billie," the eldest replied.
"Talking about me?" the young blonde asked, walking up behind Phoebe,
"yes, what have you done now?" Piper questioned,
"uh, nothing," Billie told them,
"then why do the Elders wanna see you?"
"I have no idea," the "student" witch said, walking over to the Book of Shadows,
"ah, ah, ah, no looking in the book for you missy until you tell us why the Elders want you," Piper ordered, snapping the book shut.
"Who rattled your cage?" Billie muttered,
"you," Piper replied, "and him," she added, turning to the orbs and unfreezing them, allowing the whitelighter to fully leave.
"Nothing, I honestly don't know," she said, picking up the book and walking out,
"call Paige, we're getting that girl to Golden Gate Bridge and we're gonna find out what she's done," Piper told Phoebe, watching Billie head down the stairs from the attic.
In the underworld, orbs formed a young brown haired man,
"arranged?" a female demon asked, her long, red, dress trailing along the floor as she walked towards him,
"arranged," he nodded, "I'm so glad I killed that whitelighter," he grinned, orbing out and back in again behind her.
"Stop messing around Forester, if we're ever gonna resurrect Barbas we need the witch's fears to do it, that's the only way to complete the ritual," she hissed,
"whatever Clea," he sighed.
"Where are you going?" she questioned, as he began to leave,
"I was going to have some fun, scare some little kids in costumes," he grinned,
"no, you're staying here, you know it takes two of us to summon Barbas, then I need you to orb him to the Bridge so he can feed on Billie's fears," Clea instructed.
Not much later, Billie struggled as Phoebe and Piper each held an arm and Paige orbed them out, orbing them back in atop the Bridge.
"I told you, the Elders are wrong, I haven't done anything," she claimed,
"neither have the Elders," Forester smirked,
"you're a demon!" Piper exclaimed, spinning around to face him,
"give the girl a prize, or at least a beheading," Clea chuckled, forming an energy ball.
"When can we do this?" Forester impatiently asked,
"now!" Clea replied, launching the electric sphere at the sisters and throwing them back against the orange-red metal. Suddenly, a cloud of dark mist rose in the air and swirled around Billie, swimming in and out of her body before flying into it's own space and forming the silver haired, black robed, demon of fear.
"Barbas…" Piper murmured, while Billie just gazed on in horror.
To be continued…
