Betrayal
Summary: Cordelia hypnotises you into killing Michael
Warnings: None
"You can't stop me from leaving" You scoff at Cordelia as she continues to watch you pack your stuff. "I know" She sighs sadly, her head hanging low. All day, she'd been trying to stop you from leaving the academy. But you wanted nothing more than to be with Michael, and to help him. You knew he wasn't exactly good, but you also knew it wasn't his fault- and you were willing to help him change."One thing before you go" Cordelia suddenly speaks up. "Oh?" You question as you turn around. She walks up to you, leaving only inches of space between the two of you; before closing her eyes and blowing onto your face. "I'm sorry" is the last thing you hear before colliding with the cold, wooden floor.

You wake up with a loud gasp, jumping up from the bed you were laying on. "You collapsed" Cordelia speaks as she stands up from the corner of your bed. "I did?" You question, closing your eyes tightly- your memory was a little fuzzy, as if it had been tampered with. "I'll go fix you a coffee, and then me and the girls will help you take your stuff over to Michael's house" Cordelia smiles lightly before leaving your room.
"Madison, Zoe" She calls when she sees them in the hallway. "Go help y/n bring her bags down" She says before descending down the staircase. You, however, sit on your bed- confused. "Delia said to help you with your bags" Zoe says as she knocks on your door, which is wide open. "Oh, er.. yeah, they're over there" You sigh as you point to the luggage in the corner of your room.
"Come on Madi" Zoe says as she picks up two bags and walks back out. You watch as Madison picks up the remaining two, and she catches your eye. "Are you really leaving us forever?" She questions. "Not forever. Just until i've helped Michael" You smile at her. "Whatever" She scoffs before also exiting the room.
They were all pissed at you, but out of everyone, Madison should've understood; after all, you'd helped her change her bad ways too.

"Look, I should really get going" You sigh. "Relax y/n, his house is only a street away" Zoe chuckles. "And besides, we're going with you" Cordelia adds as she takes your cup and places it in the sink. "Oh?" You question. "We need to make sure our girl is okay" The witch smiles. "Our girl? Don't you mean a two faced little betrayer" Madison scoffs. "Madi" Zoe snaps. "Whatever" She scoffs yet again.
After Cordelia and the two girls are ready to go, the four of you set off to Michael's house. The journey is a short one, but Madison's whining and complaining doesn't fail to make it seem like it's the longest walk of your lives.
"We're here" You sigh aloud, although you're pretty sure they all know that. "Where's my key" You mumble as you check your pockets. "You have your own key?" Madison scoffs. You ignore her and continue fishing for your key until finally realising it's in your bag. You swiftly take it out and unlock the door, allowing the rest of them to go inside before following after them.
"Michael" You call as you walk into the lounge and the witches follow you. "Just put the bags anywhere" You sigh before sitting down on the sofa and Zoe joins you. "So is this it?" She asks. "For now" You reply sadly. You look up and see Cordelia blow onto a picture frame of Michael. Supposing that she was just taking off the dust, you ignore it.
"So we gonna party or what?" Madison asks as she struts into the room with a bottle of wine in one hand and four beer cups in the other. "Where the hell did you get that from" You question seeing as she'd only been in the house for a maximum of three minutes, give or take. "Who cares? Drink" The young witch scoffs as she pours some wine into a cup and hands you it. "Cordelia, come on" You call her and she turns around from previously facing the window.
"Here's a toast, to y/n. For disowning us" Madison smirks as she hands Cordelia a cup before gulping down her own. "I'm not disowning you" You chuckle whilst taking a sip from your cup. "I'm simply taking a break from your whining" You smirk. "Rude" Madison scoffs with a grin on her face.
"Where is Michael?" Cordelia suddenly asks. "He might be in the shower. You don't have to wait" You tell her. "It's okay, I'd like to meet him" She smiles softly before drinking the remainder of her wine.
A few minutes go by and suddenly you hear Michael calling your voice. "In here!" You yell and he immediately appears in the doorway. "What's this?" He asks confused as he looks around the room, his eyes landing on Zoe's, Madison's, and then Cordelia's, and their stare seems to linger for a few seconds before he returns his focus onto you.
"They were just helping me bring my stuff" You explain. "Well, nice to meet you" The blonde boy smiles at each of the witches. "Where were you? You then ask him. "Showering" He smirks. You roll your eyes playfully and look over at Cordelia to see her fidgeting, in an almost nerve racking way.
"Delia what's wrong?" You ask her as you get up and go to her. "Don't!" She yells as you touch her shoulder, but it's already too late. Your eyes shut and all of a sudden, you're seeing yourself asleep on your bed. You see Cordelia move closer to your face, whispering; "You are going to kill Michael, and you are going to make sure he doesn't come back"
"What the hell!" You bellow as your eyes snap open and you push her back. "I was only protecting you, I swear!" Cordelia cries. "What the hell is going on?" Zoe asks. "Don't act like you don't know!" You snap, turning to face her. "They have nothing to do with this" Cordelia whimpers from behind you.
"Is anyone going to explain?" Michael speaks up. "She" You spit as you point at Cordelia. "Hypnotised me to kill you" You continue. "I kinda saw that one coming, but that's messed up Delia, even for you" Madison butts in. "You don't understand how evil he is! He is going to destroy you, along with everything and everyone else on this planet" Cordelia continues to cry. "Don't you think I know that?" You scoff. "I am trying to make him better, to stop him from fulfilling his destiny of bringing the armageddon upon us. I am doing this for you! For us!" You shout at the witch.
"The dark side is not a force to be reckoned with y/n. Nothing you do can save us" Cordelia gulps. "I managed to break out of a hypnotism spell that my supreme cast upon me. I'm more powerful than you think" You scoff; "Now get out. All of you"
