Two Children of Prophecy
Chapter Ten: Fallout (In more ways than one!)
Dante's eyes opened blearily as he looked around the last thing he remembered was... 'Oh Crap,' he passed out on Paige's floor with his back charred and, 'they knew… why the hell did Paige tell them it wasn't morning when he arrived,' he groaned and sat up, his back was healed, he stretched and opened his eyes, they quickly found Paige sprawled out next to him, leaning forward off her chair on to his… actually her bed, he looked around him and realised he was still in Paige's room.
He leaned down and kissed her forehead and smiled as she tried to find him without moving her body just her arms, he laughed and lifted her easily off the chair, she let out a squeal of laughter and leaned in and kissed him her hands wandering suggestively but they heard footsteps coming up the stairs, it must have been Paige's squeal that brought them, he sighed and mumbled "Why did you tell them? It wasn't morning yet," she blushed and said, "I was worried I was pacing and they wanted to know, they wouldn't leave it alone, and then they realized you were the only one that wasn't in the house so, I told them," at that Piper came in frowning and Phoebe had a scowl real big scowl, he winced before he told himself, 'Your 18, you can look after your self and you know about fighting Demons better than any other person on the light side.'
After psyching himself up for the fallout he took a deep breath, and said "Hi, how are you doing?" probably not the best thing to say at the time, he winced as his mother shrieked something awful, she finished what ever she said and glared balefully at him, "What in god's name have you been doing in the bloody Underworld, Paige told us you were going to distract the Source and then take out his Seer Demon, his bloody Concubine, are you nut's, have you lost your mind, you came back with hardly any skin on your back, the muscle charred, Leo say's that only a very, very Powerful Fire Attack could do that sort of prolonged damage, WHAT HAPPENED?" she screamed the last bit out her face red, slightly levitating, electrokinetic energy rolling from her arms crackling, the sisters were shocked they had never seen her do this before, Piper gasped when she went to the future with Prue and Phoebe she had been burned at the stake for frying a baseball players mind.
Piper stood and grabbed her, shoulder wincing as the energy tingled painfully on her skin, "Phoebe. Calm down or you'll fry someone, that seemed to calm her down, Dante stood and stretched his mother angrily staring at him he sighed and said, "I'm hungry, I'll tell you everything after I've had breakfast," just as his mother opened her mouth to shout, he Shimmered away, her bellow of anger echoed round the house, he reappeared in the kitchen and used Telekinesis to steal some of Chris's bacon, he sighed as he ate it ignoring Wyatt and Chris as he made breakfast it wasn't long before his mother stomped down the stairs, the other two following he sighed and mumbled "I going to end up vaporizing something," he sighed as he buttered his toast, his mother stomping to the table, going back to the coffee she was drinking earlier, he sighed and quickly ate his toast the last thing he needed was his mother being even angrier before he started.
He took a deep breath and tried not to jump as he felt Paige grip his leg and smile at him, "well, where to start?" he sighed where would he started, "well I first went to the Underworld when I was… fourteen…" he winced and his mother screeched, "…As I was saying, I was fourteen, I was confused before hand I tried to go much earlier but I couldn't Shimmer there, the barriers blur the actual place inside and I couldn't pass into the Underworld till I had already been there, so I had to wait till I unlocked the ability to Dark Orb, then I could let magic like the Whitelighters do, let the Magic guide me through the Barriers safely, that's the real reason I blew a hole in the wall when I first woke my ability Telekinetic Throwing, I was trying to force the ability to awaken but I wasn't doing so well I lost my patience and temper and boom…" he watched their reactions Paige seemed to find it funny so did Chris, Wyatt was like his mother scowling, Piper was expressionless.
He sighed "…well I went to the Underworld, my first trip happened to be the Demonic Market, a massive cavern surrounded by layers of Illusions, I took me a while to wonder how I could sense them but not anyone else, it's because I'm both Wiccan and Demon the Illusion was designed to block either not both, so I could sense it, a portal to the Underworld, localised but a portal none the less, it's a great place, the upper-level Demons make sure nothing happens and both Magical Creatures and Demons co-existing trading materials with each other, of course there is some less then ethical things going on there but it works, and you know the Elders condone it and allow it."
The others looked shocked Wyatt's jaw dropped open, so did everyone else's as well, "H-H-how do you know that?" said Piper looking shocked, "Dante looked at her and said, "the Market is fooling everyone to believe that it's on neutral ground, the portal leads to a magical glade with one physical entrance, that portal leads to the Underworld, and the Illusions themselves, only the Elders can create permanent portals and allow them to exist, the Illusions are powerful enough and work both ways that the Elders and a previous Source had to allow the Illusions and Portal to be created, the barriers that protect each area need permission of the power that protects each area, a Source and the Elders."
The other's blinked shocked that they had worked together before, "The only people that aern't allowed at the Market is Witches as they are pure to anything less than cause trouble would be out of character, like when Aunt Piper blew her way through into the market, you'll find if you manage to conceal yourselves visually and you Aura you can go there without being detected, I'm sure atleast one of you has noticed that we are well stocked in potion ingredients including the rare ones, you'll find that the market has a lot to offer."
He spent an hour recounting a dozen things he did like the exploration of the lower level's all the info he needed to put in the book, it wasn't till he got to the Cage fights that Phoebe started getting angry again, "Well the I started to notice as my power grew so did the Demonic urges and I needed to let off some steam, so I entered the Demon Wars cage fights just a few at first, the place used to Witch Wars till you went Gung-Ho on the place so the reformed themselves into something better, Demons fighting Demons for Powers, you win you get the Power offered the Demon that dies, dies only Demon collectors gather all of it's Powers and then they leave, so as they get Demons in spending credits the winners get more powerful and the owner gets a share of the Powers for himself, a really good setup, they expanded the place a fair few times since it got so popular it even went even further after Zankou started showing an interest in the place, he showed up the first time they decided to host a Battle Royal."
"Demons that owed people but didn't pay are called Demon Slaves, they were used as a Warm up, Ten Contestants, each one facing ten Demonic Slaves one after another and the if the Demon kills those ten he goes on to the final round out of the ten only Four went through, me, Drecelly a Drone Demon, an Ushi-Oni Demon called Tennin, a Warlock I never caught the name of, each of the Demon Slaves Powers were collected from the dead the survivors set free, the six contestants that died all pushing Upper Level status died and there powers taken, and in the end I was left standing, Tennin was taken out by Drecelly instantly, and the Warlock and me worked together to take Drecelly out and then I took out the Warlock out with a volley of Energy Balls, just think all those powers to divide, I took the ability to turn into wind from a Shax Demon and prize was the Power of Shadows," he said as shadows seemed to creep over his skin till he was a mass of shadow.
It was safe to say that while impressed the Sisters were shocked at the brutality of it and Wyatt he was nearly apoplectic in anger, his thoughts on the matter were 'Bloody Demon, sitting at our table, pretending to be a Halliwell telling the others about killing for Demonic Powers,' he growled out in hatred but only Dante heard him, then he went on to detail about how Zankou was getting too interested in his alter ego Baedon and he laid low for a while taking up contracts from Demons on other Demons, and when it started getting serious when he took out some of Zankou's Demons and he told them how he was shocked to be hid in the War Chamber listening as he was declared a traitor and a personal enemy of the Source, they got a small chuckle as he told them that he started getting more Contracts then before as soon people realized that I was good enough that he hadn't been caught yet, it was then that he told them about his last job.
"My last job as you heard was to take out the Source's concubine and Seer, the only problem with that is he was keeping the Seer under lock and key…" this caught all their interest especially Chris's the most adventurous of them, "…He had here inside the Tablet of Non-Corporeality and I would be unable to harm her till she was let out, so I started a Civil-War between the Manticore's and Spider Demons to keep him busy, and then went in hid from her and prepared a powerful Wiccan Spell to force her into corporal form only the spell would only last seconds so I used a blast of Telekinesis to bash her from her pedestal and the Tablet snapped back into place only there was no-one on it so it powered down and I killed the Seer, blanketing the area with raw Wiccan Magic to stop a Collector from gather her power and giving it to some one else and took the Tablet to the Dwarves only as I left the Sources Cave I was hit in the back by one of his Fire Matrixes and then returned here."
There was utter silence, they were shocked, utterly shocked and he had even heavily edited most of what he told them apart from the raw information, he sighed as he heard Wyatt's furious whispering to Chris, though it seemed that Chris didn't share Wyatt's view's on Dante, and that was propagating Wyatt's anger he sighed he really wished that Wyatt could see that he was being petty, but he really was self-centred, "You're a filthy Demon, how can you talk about stuff like that and expect people to believe that your normal…" he snorted angrily, "…Freak of Nature more like it," Dante clenched his jaw in anger but like always his impeccable control stopped him from commenting, even as Piper went off on one at Wyatt but it seemed to make Wyatt blow a gasket as he realized that his mother Piper was sticking up for the Demon.
"What are you thinking you heard him, he's consorting with the enemy, he's acting like the enemy, He is the Enemy," he was fuming by know his control slipping, Paige saw it to and winced, Wyatt's shield flared to life knocking Piper back slightly as Dante stood up angrily, he gworled and said, "why don't we take this outside, I have no wish to blow the house up while I knock some sense into you," the others winced as they realised that there would be fighting and stopping them would be impossible, "where?" said Wyatt angrily, "Nevada Desert sounds good nice and empty, Follow!" and Dante Dark Orbed out so Wyatt could follow, when they both left Piper groaned and said, "this isn't going to end well, Paige take us there, we'll call Leo when we get there," Paige frowned lightly but complied.
They thankfully appeared a quarter mile away, they could see the Energy Blasts and Telekinesis flying around, though Piper frowned and said confused "Who unbound Wyatt's ability to use Energy Blast's?" the others blinked as they watched as they realized that someone had unbound Wyatt's powers, "you know Piper I think that Wyatt mentioned dating a witch a few years ago the binding was powerful but it should have stopped him from unbinding it himself, maybe he got his girlfriend to do it for him," Phoebe scowled and said heatedly that's against Wiccan Law, your not supposed to share Wiccan Spells between covens, as a witch is supposed to make her own spells up unless they come from a family book," she growled lightly, if there was one thing the family knew it was that Phoebe was the true witch of the family as she went by the Wiccan Laws, even if the others did too, she knew them off by heart, so did Dante as well which explained her anger earlier.
End of Part One.

The Book of Shadows, Mind-Mage Style!
Electrokinesis: the ability to generate electrical energy and mentally control it, extreme emotions can cause the power to develop prematurely or put you in the state needed to learn and control it, Phoebe was destined to gain this power since S2E02 - Morality Bites when she killed a baseball player in the future and decides that the punishment is deserving the crime and make's her sisters leave to be Burned at the Stake. Leo as with the Power as an Elder, develops the power to use Electrokinesis as well.
Tablet of Non-Corporeality: Is a stone platform that makes a person standing on it become Non-Corporal, and they are unable to leave the safety of the Tablet till the one that put them in allows them to, the Dwarves made the Tablet. If you watch Charmed on S4E01 – Charmed Again Pt1 it shows the Source talking to a Seer that's on a Stone Table and she's made of smoke, Non-Corporal and she can speak and use her Seer abilities even though trapped, she asks permission to be seen, and once he grants it she appears Corporal, thus the Tablet of Non-Corporeality.
Seer Demon: The Seer Demons are highly sought after by Demons with any thoughts in taking over or when creating any long term plans they depending on Power have the ability to see the Future and in some cases the Past as well, they have a few method's mostly through a Crystal Ball or through Tarot Cards or even in the reflective surface of water.
Fire Matrix: This is slightly different from normal Fireball Powers as the raw Demonic power needed means this Power is only available to High Level Demons usually the Source is the only user the only comparable Power to the Fire Matrix is Pyrokinesis and even then only those with a large Mental Reserves can control the power output, the appearance can differ slightly Cole Turners Fire Matrix looked like it was metal framed with fire, were as Zankou's is like liquid Fire, though the effects are the same no matter the look it is a strong Demonic Ability.
Pyrokinesis: Is a Mental Power that allows magic and will power to combine and create a Supernatural event, the ability of Pyrokinesis is the generation of Fire from thought, it can be manipulated into a few different forms, whether you use it as a flamethrower, or to create high power or explosive Fireballs is up to the user and their ability to generate the power and to control it, In the Charmed series S4E21 – Womb Raider it shows that Phoebe and Coles child when she was pregnant was able to use the child's power of Pyrokinesis and used it to create a beam of energy though it's a focused 'Blowtorch' like beam of fire, that killed the Tall Man.
Wiccan Laws: The Ten Old Laws by the Alexandrian Book of Shadow's.
The Law was Made and Ordained of Old.
The Law was made for the Wicca, to advise and help in their troubles.
The Wicca should give due worship to the gods and obey their will, which they ordain, for it was made for the good of Wicca as the worship of the Wicca is good for the gods. For the gods love the brethren of Wicca.
As a man loveth a woman by mastering her,
So should the Wicca love the gods by being mastered by them.
And it is necessary that the Circle which is the temple of the gods, should be truly cast and purified, and that it may be a fit place for the gods to enter.
and the Wicca shall be properly prepared and purified to enter into the presence of the gods.
With love and worship in their hearts, they shall raise power from their bodies to give power to the gods.
As has been taught of old.
For in this way only may men have communion with the gods, for the gods cannot help man without the help of man.
Those are the first ten points classed as the Old Laws, though it continues to other rules and laws which total 161 points, these first ten laws I think are a good example because I think it's like a history lesson in old speak about how the first covens were made how the Wicca gained there power.
I think that what is meant in here is the fact gods can't help the mortals but they can by proxy do it through Pure witches, a pure soul to be a conduit of celestial power, but with the death of one of there gods I think their ability to bring NEW witches into the covens was lost, so now there is only families were the power is continued, of course I'm speaking in the terms of CHARMED but I think this would explain the outlook of the show if it WERE REAL, when one of there gods a horned one died I think there powers to invoke the purification died of course I'm speaking of Pan the Greek god of Sexuality, this I think is were the Pagans come in with there sex rituals and things, keeping the Wicca alive practicing purification and passing the Wiccan lines through the females in rituals, only it got misguided and became a sex activity by those not pure and is now tainted in the eyes of many.
