Chapter Thirty-Two: Unnatural Exposure Part Three

Date: August 10, 2023

From Chapter 31:

"Throw it!" Sander screamed, as he sent a vase flying at the other warlock. The athame she threw sailed through the air, which the warlock deflected it and sent it flying towards Pru's stomach, who looked at it scared. The athame finally stopped...

The athame sailed towards Pru's babies, she stared at it helpless and scared. There was a whirring sound, and time stopped. Greg was struggling to get up, His right hand outstretched freezing time.

"I think my left arm is broken." he moaned as Pru removed the athame and threw it at the second warlock, who exploded into flames and Greg blew up the other one.

"Look at this house!" Sander said.

"Oh my god! Dan!" Pru said, as she rushed towards him. There was blood all over the granite mantle from the impact of his skull. There was a pool of blood surrounding the wound.

"Mike!" Sander screamed, nothing.

"Greg freeze him. It will stop the bleeding." Pru said, as Greg did just that.

Sander continued to call for Mike, but there was no answer.

"Why isn't he answering!" Sander said angrily in frustration.

"Maybe he knows why you are calling him, and he doesn't want to help Dan." Greg said, as he sat down, and held his left arm.

"Mike would never do that to an innocent." Sander said with malice, angry for his brother to suggest such a thing.

"Is everything alright in there? We heard explosions." a loud voice rang through the house. Sander peeked out the window and saw the police chief standing at the base of the landing with a megaphone.

"Ignore it." Sander said, and continued to called for Mike.

"Damn it, where are you Mike?" Sander said, as he dabbed at the blood drying on Dan's frozen head wound.

Pru spoke, "I'm going in the basement to look for that sling I had when I broke my arm when I was fifteen." she orbed out.

Greg was sitting, his left arm bruising and laying limply in his lap. His forehead was bleeding from an impact wound made when he hit the glass.

The couches were moved, there was a smash in the plaster of the wall, the mantle was chipped and had blood stained on it, the grandfather clock was smashed, and the coffee table as demolished. Also demon guts were all over the door frames and windows.

"Sander, I'm scared. What are we going to do?"

"I'm scared. However, we need to be strong though. We're witches, we can do this. I just need to find Mike."

Greg nodded his head, as Pru walked back in the room. "Here, put this on." she threw the sling at Greg. She glanced at the clock, it read noon. All of this happened before noon time.

"What was with that thing I did? You know how the athame came to me in a swirl of orbs."

Sander wasn't listening, he was too concerned with Dan.

"Maybe it's new power." Greg suggested as he adjusted the sling.

"All I remember thinking was I need that athame, and my stomach twinged and then I had it."

"Maybe one of the babies has their powers already? After all they have some whitelighter in them."

Pru nodded her head, it was a possibility.

Cole shimmered in fifteen minutes later.

"Oh my god, Cole." Pru said as she ran over to her husband and kissed him and hugged him.

"What the hell happened here?" he asked, as Pru and Greg told him the events of the last hour.

"Oh my, and Mike can't be found anywhere?" Cole asked after the story was told. They nodded their head.

"Well, my luck was no better. The Source refuses to help. There is a rumor that the Elders have an Elder that can reverse time, but it is just a rumor."

The Charmed Ones faces contorted with anger, the Elders had a option they never even disclosed to them, they were pissed, outraged, and even worse betrayed by their own side.

"Dad! YOU GET YOUR ELDER ASS DOWN HERE RIGHT NOW!" Pru screamed.

Leo orbed in, his head completely silver from being up there all the time.

"What is this about a time reversing Elder?" Pru snapped.

"Well there is one, but he won't help and neither will the other Elders. They think it's better that you come up with a way out." he said, "I of course think they should help. Mike and I have been up there all day doing what we can but nothing is happening."

Leo looked around, he knew what had happened. He walked over to Dan and placed his hands over his head, and the gold light bathed Dan. The blood slowly returned to Dan, and he was awoken. He then moved on to Greg.

Sander had Pru orb Dan upstairs to rest, and when she got back, it was plan time.

"We need to think of a way to get out of this." Sander said, as he looked through the book of shadows.

"Dad, go and persuade the Elders. They have to understand if they don't help us, we are going to be burned alive, and our destiny is going to be over." Pru dictated.

"Okay, I'll see what I can do." he orbed out.

"We need to do something about this crowd." Greg said, as he looked out the window.

"I think we need to as well." Cole agreed.

"Greg, go outside, and try to freeze them." Sander suggested.

"But, what happens if I can't? They film me, and I look like an idiot. Or better yet what if I explode them?"

"You have control, and you've had control for almost five years of your powers, now try." Pru pushed.

"Here goes nothing." Greg hesitated, and finally opened the door slowly. Cameras flashes and reporters dashed towards the door. Greg put his hands up and a whirring sound was heard, and the reporters and bystanders were frozen. Frozen In Time.

The End
