Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed and any character that you have seen on the show. I don't own The Parent trap either. I just borrowed the characters and idea to write my Charmed version of the great classical movie "The Parent trap".

Only one chapter left after this one. And here I have a dilemma; should I post the last chapter tomorrow or should I wait after Christmas?

The Parent trap

Chapter 6

Double trouble

"Huh huh!" mumbled Amanda through her teeth

They were still in the manor in San Francisco and she was looking at her mother with an anxious look.

"If Faith doesn't know that she is part demon then her demonic powers must be blocked someway right?" She asked.

"Yes, they are bound." Answered Phoebe nervously, "but why don't you shimmer us to your home."

"Because I can't. I am in Faith's body."

"What? Why in earth did you switch bodies, you are identical twins? Asked Phoebe.

"My hair is brown, permed and shorter." Explained Amanda, "I wanted to write a spell to modify the appearance of our hair but Faith knew the spell to switch bodies so we used it instead. She said you wrote it and used it for you and aunt Prue a couple of years ago."

"Yeah, but apparently she forgot about all the troubles we had because of this spell." Said Phoebe annoyed. She was trying to find the fastest way to reach Faith when she noticed that Amanda was speaking.

"I can use the phone to call dad." She was saying.

"Of course go for it." She said nervously. For a short moment she stopped thinking about Faith and realized that after all those years, she would see Cole again. Her heart started pounding in her chest as Amanda dialed Cole's cell phone.

"Hi Dad, are you home?" she quickly asked.

"Amanda? Of course I am home, you are the one who stormed away 5 minutes ago. And you better have a good explanation for that young lady." Said Cole irritated.

"Oh no," she said, "she left." She added for Phoebe.

"What?" asked Cole confused.

"Dad, it wasn't me, I am at the manor with mom. Can you come fast?" She asked.

Once second later, Cole Turner appeared in the manor. He looked at the blond girl in front of him and frowned.

"Amanda?" he asked incredulous.

"In Faith's body." She answered.

"So it was Faith in New Mexico." Stated Cole, "but that doesn't explained why she stormed away like that."

"Oh well," started Amanda hesitantly, "it's probably because she huh, she didn't knew she was part demon."

"What?" said Cole astonished, then turning to Phoebe, "you said you wanted to bind her demonic power, not lie to her about who she was."

"It has never been my intention." Protested Phoebe, "I was going to tell her when she turned 12, but something happened."

"Yeah right!" snorted Cole.

"It's the truth Cole!" said Phoebe getting annoyed, "A couple of weeks before her birthday, Faith woke up in the middle of the night screaming. It was a premonition about a demon attacking and killing Justin, a boy from her school that she liked very very much. Unfortunately we didn't make it there in time to save him. She was crushed and full of hatred for demons. I couldn't possibly add to her pain by telling her that she was part demon."

"It was 4 years ago Phoebe, what stopped you from telling her after that?" asked Cole bitterly.

"Enough!" ordered Amanda.

Phoebe was startled, Amanda has sounded exactly like Piper when Prue and her were arguing to no end.

"You will have all the time to argue later, can I remind you that Faith is God knows where, confused and certainly very mad. And to make it worse, she is in my body with demonic power that she can't control."

"She is right," said Cole, "we need to get to her fast."

"Before she makes something really bad" completed Phoebe alarmed.

"Let's go back to my house." Said Cole trying to take Phoebe and Amanda hands.

"No," said Amanda, "I don't think she stayed in New Mexico. She might not know how to use my power, but since she was confused she must have wanted to be somewhere she feel safe and it should have been enough for her to shimmer to that place."

"Right," agreed Cole, "Phoebe, does she have a special place where she likes to go, where she would feel safe?"

"Yes, I think I know where she is. Let's go" Phoebe said reaching for her purse.

Phoebe and Amanda were right. After leaving Cole's house, Faith had run and run until she couldn't breath anymore, then she had sat down on the ground and cried. A few people tried to talk to her but she completely ignored them. After a few minutes she stood up and started to walk. She was so confused; she had no idea what to do or where to go. If she was in San Francisco she would go to the cemetery on Justin graves, where she always go when she is feeling down. Before she could understand what was happening she found herself standing in front of Justin graves. She had just shimmered, she realized furious. She heard a noise behind her so she turned around. It was the door of a mausoleum nearby, a boy, around her age where getting out, he was walking strangely and had a stupid smile on his face. Faith felt her blood boiling when she realized that the boy had hidden in the mausoleum to take drugs.

"You lowlife scum! Can you at least have respect for dead people?"

"Mind your own business babe." Answered the boy as he continued to walk away.

Faith raised her hands to freeze him and the boy went flying against the mausoleum. Surprised, Faith looked at her hands before remembering that she was in Amanda's body. The boy stood up slowly groaning with pain.

"How did you do this, you crazy bitch?" he said with a dirty look.

Angry, Faith slammed him against the mausoleum again. An energy ball appeared in her hand and she was about to throw it at the now unconscious boy.

"No Faith!" screamed Amanda.

Amanda, followed by Cole and Phoebe were just arriving. Phoebe wanted to run to her daughter but Cole put his hand on her arm and told her that if someone could reach Faith right now, it was Amanda.

"Why not?" asked Faith sarcastically, "I am a demon right? And demons kill people."

"No, evil demons kill people but you and I, we are not evil, and neither is dad."

"Demons are evil!" screamed Faith.

"We are only part demon Faith, and we are also good witches." Explained Amanda.

"And what about him? Is he part witch too?" she asked looking at Cole, with disdain.

"No, but he is half human." Answered Amanda.

The boy moved, starting to regain consciousness. Faith turned to look at him.

"Faith, don't do this." Warned Phoebe, unable to stay quiet anymore.

"Don't tell me what to do!" screamed Faith shooting an angry looks at her mother, "you lied to me my entire life, I hate you and I don't want to see you ever again."

Tears flooded Phoebe eyes, she felt crushed but didn't dare to speak again. Cole placed his arm around her to comfort her.

"That's not true," said Amanda, "you love mom, that's why it hurt so much."

"So now you are taking their side? They lied to you too and they kept us apart. Have you already forgotten that?"

"No, I am still mad at them and I am not going to cut them any slack, they owe us a lot of explanation and I intend to get it. But I don't hate them" Explained Amanda calmly.

Faith didn't know what to do. She wanted to believe Amanda, to go home and listen to her parents' explanations. But she was feeling this huge rage inside of her, almost consuming her. She was still pondering what to do when she noticed that the boy now completely conscious was trying to get away. The energy ball reappeared in her hand. Amanda froze the boy then reached out and caught her sister's arm.

"You know what?" she said now angry, "you want to be evil, fine! But I am not evil, I have never been and there is no way I will let you used my body and my power to do evil. So give me my body back first."

Phoebe alarmed wanted to go to Faith but Cole hold on to her firmly. Faith, surprised by Amanda sudden outburst and more confuse than ever, slowly agreed and they both said the spell to switch their body back. A faint glow circled the twins and Faith now in her own body collapsed on the ground, crying, as she realized what she could have done. Amanda touched her and shimmer them home after a look at her father.

Cole walked to the frozen boy and transport him inside the mausoleum, then him and Phoebe walked back to her car with a little stop to tell the cemetery guardian that they heard strange noise from that mausoleum. Even if the boy told what he saw, everybody will think that he hallucinated because of the drugs.

"How did you know switching body back would work?" asked Phoebe getting in the car.

"I didn't." said Cole smiling, "but at least in her body she would have been less dangerous. However I think I know why it worked. Demonic powers are feeding on rage, the more mad you are, the more you feel the urge to used them and the harder it is to think clearly. Faith was not used to this so she was completely overwhelm by the powers. "

Phoebe parked the car in front of the manor and looked at Cole. They both knew that they had a rough time ahead of them. With a weak smile, Phoebe held her hand to Cole, who took it then shimmered them to his house for the confrontation with their daughters.
