Chapter 2: Meeting In The Underworld
The underworld was a dangerous place, especially for witches. It was cold, damp, and the Charmed Ones didn't understand why or how the demons could stay down there. There were different holes that led to individual rooms and to individual lairs. The different lairs told you a lot about the demon that lived there. A cauldron stood right in the middle of this lair, the ingredients inside were almost bubbling over. A demon shimmered in right in front of the cauldron. It was The Crone. The Charmed Ones have run into The Crone before, once right after Wyatt was born, and just last week when she stole Piper's ability to see, Phoebe's ability to hear, and Paige's ability to speak. The Charmed Ones thought that they had vanquished The Crone for good, but how wrong they were.
"Finally I have my last ingredient to summon The Kazi King." She said to herself. The Crone and The Kazi King had worked together last week, but for them to work together again seemed to be impossible considering that she had vanquished him, and all his worriers, herself. She dropped the ingredient in and a long flame of fire burst out of the cauldron and landed on the floor. As the flame disappeared and left behind the screaming Kazi King.
"What do you want with me Crone?" The King yelled. He was a big black man with muscles like you couldn't imagine.
"Calm down you oaf! I have a proposition for you." The Crone said to the angry demon that stood just inches away from her.
"WHAT! You vanquish me and all of my worriers and then have the audacity to summon me back from the waste land and propose a deal! Are you out of your mind?" The King said with a booming voice.
"Do you want to hear my plan or not? You know, I could just send you back to the hell that I jut brought you from." She said as she held up a hand telling him to be quiet.
The Kazi King took a deep breath to calm himself down then said, "I'm listening."
"The Charmed Ones are getting ready to become vulnerable to attack." The Crone said after a few seconds to make sure that he was really calm.
"That is what you said last time and it got us all vanquished!" The King said returning to his booming voice that made even The Crone jump.
The Crone had a disgusted look on her face remembering the failure of her plane. "I hadn't expected them to bond as sisters that quickly, but this time…" The Crone said with a smile as if she immediately got over her anger. "This time is different! Our young Paige will cast a spell that will backfire and not only she, but her other sisters will be so confused! And then who would come along to vanquish them? A demon that they think is already dead!"
"That sounds perfect! But what is in it for me?" The King questioned.
"You will be known as the demon that killed The Charmed Ones." The Crone said with a wicked smile on her face.
