Cole sat at the kitchen table not wanting to go meet his daughters boyfriend. Knowing already that he wasn't going to like him, but Phoebe insisted he be nice.
" Ok everyone, be nice this is important to Patience. No magic got it? Nothing of the sort. Paige Henry, try to keep Sadie under control, she has been kinda power happy lately if you know what I mean." Phoebe was standing around lecturing everyone before going to meet her only daughter's first boyfriend. She was about to walk out of the kitchen when she realized that she didn't even know his name. She turned around to the clan standing around getting ready to follow her out.
" Hey, I just realized I don't know his name." She looked at Cole, and he made a gruffing noise.
" Do you honestly expect me to know?" She raised one eyebrow.
" Cole, this is not the time now to let your demonic half take over." Cole's eyes got real wide, and he stood up and stormed over by her and grabbed her hand.
" Fine, lets go." Before Phoebe knew what was happening she was being pulled to the livingroom where Patience was showing her boyfriend the place. Phoebe put on her biggest smile and elbowed Cole in the gut, who in turn gave a halfway smile.
Wyatt, Chris, Peter,Henry, Leo, and Sadie were watching from the conservatory. They were all staring at Patience's boyfriend. He had jet black hair, and bright blue eyes, with tan skin. He was fairly tall, and had a nice build with an intrancing smile.
Wyatt nudged Chris, " Ooooo, look at Uncle Cole, he doesn't look impressed at all. Everyone better watch out. We don't want Belthazor coming out." Henry turned around to him and gave him the evil eye. Which shut Wyatt up in an instant. Piper and Paige came up behind them.
" What are you guys doing?" Piper asked with an accusing look in her eyes. Leo started coughing.
" Well, um we were just." He looked at Paige to see that she had the same look as her sister. Then he looked at Chris, " Chris why don't you explain to your mother what we were doing." Chris looked shocked and started to stutter just like his father. Piper rose her eyebrows in amusement.
" You know you guys could just go say hi." she said, with laughter in her voice. She rolled her eyes and pushed through the peeking crowd to go introduce herself.
Chris watched as his mom, and Aunt Paige went over and introduced themselves like it was no big deal. Sadie was attached at her mom's hip,but the guys just stayed back watching from afar. Cole walked over to them with an angry look on his face.
" Could you sense anything? Evil, anything like that?" Henry asked, Cole pursed his lips together and took a deep breath.
" No, nothing he is perfect." The guys looked at each other, but then heard them being called for dinner. They were walking into dining room when Leo asked in a quiet voice.
" Did you get his name?" Coles eyes got wide and he shook his head.
" Opps." Leo rolled his eyes and went to introduce himself. With Henry and the boys following.
Meanwhile in the underworld...
"Master, it is all set up." Fayre said her head bowed. The hooded figure laughed.
" Good job, no go, and do not fail me. Or you will have to pay."
Back at the manor...
" Mrs. Halliwell, this is one of the best dinners I have ever eaten." Piper smiles at the boys compliment. Still not sure of his name she nodded her head.
" Thanks, but you can call me Piper really." He smiled back showing a straight row of pearly whites.
Phoebe looked at Patience. She looked so happy, and everybody was being good. Peter hadn't called in animals in the room, and Sadie hadn't turned anything to ice. It was turning out to be a nice family dinner. Even cole was acting civilized.
Patience looked around the table. Everyone was smilling and talking, and acting like a real family with a guest over. It was so cool. Everything was going perfect. There hadn't been any demonic attacks yet or anything. Which was a good thing, because she didn't like using her powers. The weather control and fire throwing she could control, but being an empath really sucked sometimes. She blamed her mother for that usless, annoying power.
Everyone was done eating dinner and Piper was bringing out desert. She was in the kitchen cutting it sections when she felt herself being thrown across the room. She hit the wall hard and crumpled to the ground. She shook her head and got up, and saw what had thrown her across the room.
The demon had yellow eyes and black spikey hair. Other than that he looked like an ordinary human being though. That is if an average ordinary human being could throw fireballs. The demon threw it at Piper and she froze it right in front of her face. She growled and got up blowing it up with a flick of her wrist. Phoebe and Paige came running into the kitchen incase what they heard they needed the Power of Three to defeat it. They saw Piper standing in front of what she had apparently just blown up. She walked over to the cake and tried to salvage what was left of it. Grumbling as she went.
"Piper was it a demon?" Paige asked, Piper looked at her like she was stupid.
" No, the cake just didn't look good so I decided to blow it up. Of course it was a demon!" Paige held her hands up in the air took a step back. Piper was picking up a piece of cake when she heard a scream in the dining room. She dropped it and he Phoebe and Paige ran in. She saw cole holding an energry ball and throwing it at some demon. It looked like the one Piper had just blown up. It blew up and one showed up again in its place.
" Brian, duck!" Patience screamed as a energy ball caming flying towards them.
"Brian, that is his name!" Everyone thought pretty much at the same time.
Phoebe felt someone grab her from behind. She grabbed its hand and threw it over her shoulder. Which made her start into a coughing fit.
Cole was throwing energy balls left and right trying to hit them, but they were just way to fast. Piper was also using her power to try and blow them up, but was running into the same problem. Till finally she got so annoyed she froze the whole room. Some of the demons were frozen blurs, some had half formed fireballs in their hands. Piper grunted and brushed her hands together.
" Good thinking mom." Chris said smiling. Piper shrugged her shoulders then turned around to the nearest demon, but the next thing she knew she was being thrown from her feet by a blur, that had just been frozen.
