Two Children of Prophecy
Chapter Seven: Trip to the Underworld
Five Years Later (Fourteen-Years-old)
Dante was doing well, since he had that battle with Wyatt they hadn't exchanged words other than polite or forced speak, it was really frustrating for the Charmed Ones to realize that two of there kids hated each other, though Chris seemed to mediate between both and ignored the sly comments about the two older boys as they mumbled about each other, Wyatt and Chris were still at Magic school, though they also went to, high school as well, having decided since they liked to abuse there powers they would have to catch up to Dante in normal education and go to high school to get good grades, though they had planned on them doing it anyway as they had to earn a living Piper decide to spring it up on them and pretend she was using it as a punishment.
Though Wyatt didn't mind it, he didn't really like the girls that went to Magic School, he liked the normal girls in public school, so that was the reason he got into football straight away, what better way to get with the Cheerleaders than to be on the team, though Dante hated sports he was almost accosted at the beginning of every new term by ALL the coaches to be on the different teams, Soccer, Football, Polo, Swimming, and even Hockey, he was an all round fitness buff, although he rarely did any working out his demonic body was designed to be under lots of physical duress and all the teams wanted him.
He really should never have did that charity triathlon two years ago, they never gave him any peace now, after seeing him in action, he had gone to the Ironkids competition that was held in Napa, California and was classed as a senior, as he was at the top of the age range, he had completed the 200 meter swim, 10 kilometer bike-ride and 2 kilometer run, safe to say that the teachers were shocked as they didn't realize how athletic he was, the only reason he did it in the first place was to get one up on Wyatt who was taunting that he couldn't do it, though if any asked him why he competed and won, it was that it left doors open to get a sports scholarship into a good college if he wanted to go to one of the better ones, that satisfied his mother as well.
He was only in one club and in that he was only mid-ranking in school and that was Fencing, he knew that the ability to wield a sword would come in handy, though he knew privately in his mind that he only wanted to learn so he could beat Wyatt's ass when he started to learn, he did after all have too take up Excalibur and he certainly didn't want that cretin beating him because the sword would teach him instantly, though he was more mature he really couldn't help but be petty sometimes.
"Danny, come here are you going to brood all-day again," he shuddered he really wanted to get rid of her, he was one step away from vaporizing her, he really was, he would prefer to get a spanking from a Shax demon then spend a single night again with that shallow slut, he walked over to the blonde girl that was hanging over the railing at the school entrance, he scowled at her and said, "Bugger off Brooke, I thought I told you to jump off a cliff," not his most eloquent of insults, but it was her slutty reply that had him actually thinking of going out with her again, "you can bugger me all you want, Danny," he growled if she didn't get lost he'd bugger her then drop her off a cliff with a Energy Ball shoved up her… he shook his head scowled and walked off in a different direction, 'Bloody Hormones,' it didn't matter anyway he was looking forward to later on that night, it would be his first trip to the Underworld… 'Maybe I should take Brooke with me' he though with a smile.

Dante was pacing, it just so happened that the Sisters had decided to stay up late tonight and talk, 'Bloody Women' now he had to wait until they went to bed, because there was no doubt that his mother would come into his room later and kiss him goodnight, although when he left he was going to leave a wooden dummy with an illusion he couldn't risk it encase his mother came in and realized that the dummy was fake, he be put in that blasted cage again.
He sighed and listened he could just make out his aunt Paige talking though it sounded really muffled, he sighed and sat at his desk, he took a deep breath and concentrated, he saw in his mind a spark of power lighting the darkness around it he forced the spark into a circle leaving a solid line behind it, he focused on the circle the basis of all Wiccan magic, he sent a thought to the circle, 'Sleep' he watched as the circle brightened, he moved the spark to create another circle, making it 3D as it made a two circle sphere, he then thought to the new circle, 'Tiredness' and again the circles both brightened, he continued this for a few minutes adding symmetrical circles to create a ball of light with different thought of 'Doze off, Bed, Time, Work, Bed again' he the grasped the ball and sent it mentally to his mother and her Sisters, the ball disappeared, he opened his eyes and looked at the time, 40 seconds had passed, he was getting quicker.
He then heard a noise on the stairs and realized that the sleeping spell had worked, he waited and heard his mother's and aunts doors close he got up smirking, he concentrated for a brief second and a wooden dummy his height was lying on the bed, he closed his eyes and went through the same Wiccan spell process he went through earlier only for the Glamour Spell and watched as the wooden dummy was replaced with the image of him sleeping with his Pj's on.

There was a reason he had waited for so long before venturing down to the Underworld and that reason was he couldn't actually go there through the barriers of hell until he had been there before, it wasn't like he could Shimmer to Hawaii without knowing where to go and it was the same for the Underworld only slightly different, the Underworld shifted as you passed through it's barriers as it created a slight distortion in perception, and without knowing a location made it impossible to travel there, though he now had a way, he had finally unlocked his surrogate mothers Dark Orbing ability, the same ability that worked the same as a Whitelighters, the Orbing allowed you to travel to destinations unknown by letting the magic guiding you where you wanted to go, although you needed to relinquish control, it allowed him to make such a transition without the need of being there before.
He waited a further fifteen minutes before leaving just to make sure that his spell had worked, it was a minor spell that would only induce the need to sleep but if a noise or say a Demon attack happened they would wake up as normal, he took a deep breath and thought 'Underworld, alone, connection to commerce," he waited and felt his body turn into a liquid like energy and he felt himself fade, and de-fade into existence again only it felt slightly hotter and the gravity seemed slightly stronger, he breathed in and felt the stagnant air, he looked around, he seemed to be in a niche in a roughly hewn rock, he was about to step out when he remembered he needed something to hide his face and presence he couldn't use Wiccan Glamour as it might be sensed.
He concentrated and used his conjuration power to create a heavy woollen black cloak and with a good ability to create shadow's around the face where the hood was, as it was a Power and not Wiccan Magic it would not be sensed, as anything other as neutral power, he moved the clock till if felt comfortable he stepped out to a market place, it was weird he could feel that the whole place was a cavern with his sensing ability but there was a hugely powerful illusion surrounding the walls and ceiling making look like it was open air, light and breezy, he was amazed he never knew that the Demonic Market from what his aunts had told him was open air seemingly stolen part of the magical creatures realm he didn't think that his Mother or aunts knew that it was in the Underworld and was designed to seem like it was somewhere neutral.
He walked around keeping to himself, and he couldn't believe it, there was fauns and nymphs and other supposed light creatures haggling with Demons and other creatures all of them believing they were on neutral ground, he wondered if the Elders knew about this… though now that he thought about it he wouldn't be surprised if it was their idea, no wonder there was so many upper level Demons keeping an eye on the place, it was there territory.
He was in awe of the things on sale in the market, stalls selling Fairy dust, Athame's, Charms and Amulets even Slaves, partly Demonic humans that the Elders couldn't consider as innocents having Demonic blood, stripped of their powers to be used or to work, though the one place that he was really interested in was the local power brokers, they traded Demonic powers, lot's of weaker or harder to get powers to get a more powerful one, they had the ability to transfer powers of weaker Demon's and with permission for upper level Demons, they used slaves or Humans to store powers so Demons to couldn't steal them.
He spent a few hours walking around he had found the equivalent of a money exchange, basically too get currency for the market you needed something that was in demand or magical in nature to trade for the currency, the market had tons of herbs and body parts that were hard to get for potions in the market, for lower prices as well, the best thing of course for Dante was that he could create permanent objects some of them with magical abilities depending how much power he put into it, so he could think of and create things for the market.
He had created a few rings that had the ability to make the users fist take more damage and augment the strength, a few of the lower class demons that didn't have a good powers would be able to use this kind of magical artefact, he got quite a few coins for it as well, he stocked up on a fewer of the harder to find herbs to add to the potion stores in the manor.

He reappeared in his bedroom, the house was quite and his dummy wasn't disturbed, he smiled and Shimmered himself into the attic and stored the ingredients with the others making sure they weren't touching anything that would react with the new ingredients before shimmering into his room, with a flash of his hand a over powered Energy Ball crashed into the dummy vaporizing it, he smiled again he had enjoyed himself, maybe he world explore some other places in the Underworld soon.

End of the Chapter: R&R

For Clarification the Demonic Market in the Charmed series was in a magical Glade that had three demons watching the Portal that led to the market, the Market it self did look like it was in a large field like in the Human world, I've did it so that the Portal takes people from the Glade into the Underworld a bit like Orbing takes you safely through the barriers, in the market it is in a very large Cavern, that is surrounded with a very powerful illusion that fools people into believing that they are somewhere on the surface, on neutral territory, to make non-Demonic entities feel safe.
If you want to know my sources, I checked out the Ironkids Competition, the Triathlon out on Wikipedia . org, and as far as I'm aware the Napa California one is closest to San Francisco, about an hours drive away.
