The Ability To Read Chapter 2

Here's the new chapter, sorry it took so long, the computers anti-virus program broke down, so I couldn't use the internet at all ( I really need a computer of my own :) I'm the only one in my family who understands them.) Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy it! Thanks to everyone that reviewed!


This morning, Prue woke up long before anybody else. As she stumbled out of bed and in to the bathroom, the events of yesterday came rushing back to her. Who was that girl, and what was she doing here? She knew about magic, and didn't she say that she was raised by demons or something? Her head was so full of questions, she hardly noticed that she wasn't using her own toothbrush, but Phoebes.

She wanted to get to know more about this girl, even if she was a demon or a warlock or something, somehow she facinated Prue. She slowly opened the door top Phoebe's room where Cora was sleeping, but she noticed that she didn't have be so quiet, both of them looked like they could sleep for a thousand years. Looking at her sister sleeping peacefully, it was hard to belive that they argued so much, and now Prue couldn't think of one single reason to be mad at her ever again. She loved her sister so much.

Next to the bed, she noticed a backback, and it wasn't Phoebe's. Prue took it and quickly went out of the room. Inside it she found a pair of black pants, a long sleeved black shirt, a heavy book of magic spells, black nailpolish and a jar with pills. She shook a few of them out, and they looked like any other pill, but how could she know, it could be drugs or just some aspirin?

A few hours later, when the rest of the sisters were up too, Prue sat down by the table just as Piper put a plate full of pancakes in front of her and then do the same thing to Cora , she wished that she was as caring and loving as her sister, accepting anyone in to her heart.

Now Prue saw the little girl with new eyes, not the same way as yesterday night. Her face was pale, her eyes had a color that was a mix between yellow and green, and her raven black hair made her skin look whiter than it alredy was. She was wearing one of Pipers old t-shirts, and it was way too big for her, making Prue realise how skinny she was. Prue counted to five, five silver studs that she had pierced into each ear. A studded collar was strapped tightly around her neck.

"Aren't you a bit too young to be..."

Prue left the sentence hanging in the air, not really knowing what to call her very different style.

"Goth?" Cora filled in.

"Yeah, that's the word"

"Not really, I'm 10, and no one can tell me what to do"

They finished their breakfast in silence and then went into the livingroom to wait for Leo, who had promised to come by. Cora sat silent in Phoebe's lap whilePiper , who was sitting next to them, abscently played with Cora's long hair.

Suddenly, blue orbs appeared in the air, and a second later, Leo stood in front of them.

"Hi, what was it that you guys wanted me to look up?"

"Her" The sisters said in chorus.

Leo looked at the girl. He knew that he had seen her somewhere before, but where?

After the sisters had told him how they found her, he leaned down to her level to talk to her.

"So your name is Coraline, right? It's a very nice name." Cora just looked at him. "How old are you and where do you come from? Do you have any powers?" Then he realised what he had just said and looked nervously towards the girls.

"She does know about magic doesn't she?"

"Yes I do" Cora said calmly. She continued. "I'm 10 years old, and I don't know where I come from, I've been on my own for most of my life, travelling between here and the underworld"

Just when he had orbed away, Leo realised that she never told them if she had any powers or not. After deciding not to orb back to the livingroom, he orbed up to the attic instead, there might be some information on anything that's related to her in there, in the book.

As he was about to flip the pages of the book of shadows, they started to turn by themselves again, flipping to a page with the title: Mind readers. Just below it was a picture of a demon with a tatooed face, holding a little girl by the hand. She was dressed in a small black dress and her long dark hair was held back by a black bow. She looked oddly familiar, and suddenly, Leo realised who it was.

It was Coraline.

TBC?
