"How are things at home?" Piper asks me as I sit with her at Magic School.

"Good, we're just having a little trouble catching a demon but other than that okay." I let her know.

"That's good. How's Phoebe?" She writes things down.

"She feels like she's no help but we keep telling her she's okay. She can still do potions and spells." I add.

"Hopefully she starts to feel better soon. The quicker she forgets about losing her active powered the quicker she can earn them back." Piper looks over at me.

"Yep." I agree with her rubbing my head.

"What's wrong honey?" She asks me.

"I've been having headaches for weeks. Ones where I get really dizzy." I let her know.

"Should we be worried?" She asks.

"I don't think so." I tell her truthfully.

"My mom told me when she 22 her headaches started because of the gift. It's just my turn now." I sigh.

"And there's nothing to help with them?" She asks.

"Sleeping." I chuckle.

"Then go home and go to sleep, sweetheart. Remember I said you can sleep in my room until I come back. Plus you've been with me all day." She gets up to come sit next to me.

"It is late." I close my eyes as she runs her hand through my hair.

"See. Go to bed. You're tired and it will help with your headache. Come on, get to orbing." She claps her hands making me laugh.

"Okay. Goodnight mom." I orb to the manor and pass out going to bed.

The next morning I wake up and change clothes before going to the attic to see Phoebe and Leo talking. "Good morning, Cassie." He sees me.

"Morning." I yawn as Chris orbs in.

"You talking about me?" He looks at Phoebe.

"No, your fetus. Did you find something?" She tells him.

"Not something, someone. Demonatrix." He tells her.

"Chris, what you do in your spare time..." She starts making me laugh.

"The weapon you found belongs to a group of deadly assassins known as demon... atrix." He explains as he walks up to my side holding me in his arms.

"Ohh." She nods her head.

"Did you find out who they work for?" Leo asks him.

"No, but, Leo, check this..."

Phoebe cuts him off, "Dad. Would it kill you to call him dad?" She tells him.

"Apparently, this demon gives his assassins vanquishing potions. Charmed Ones vanquishing potions." He tells them.

"What? How is that possible?" I look back at him.

"The book?" He suggests.

"No, they wouldn't be able to get near it." Leo tells him.

"Well, then how?" He asks with a tone so I elbow him.

"Well, one of them must be reading your minds, like the telepath did at magic school." Leo says.

"Magic school." Phoebe looks over at us.

"Mom. I'd better go check on her." Chris says.

"No, we'll go. You get underground, see if you can follow the assassins to the demon." Leo tells him.
