Now an very male Xander is pregnant with a child from a man that’s not even born yet. This idea is from a challenge I read but couldn’t find again.

“Just a little soul spell.”

“Bastard!” Xander hissed at the grinning doll.

The doll tisked and its head flopped around till it was looking up at Xander. “Such bad manners for a pretty witch.”

“What do you want?” Xander growled.

The doll gave a jerk that might have been a shrug. “What any demon wants. Power, riches, destruction, the deaths of thousands of witches, my trophy back in my possession. It was very rude of you to steel it.”

Xander held her hand over her heart and gasped. “I’m sorry next time I’ll give you fair warning before I attack or steel from you just like you do for all the young witches you mutilate.”

The doll’s grin turned into a small smirk and its human eyes rolled about. “That’s all I ask. But enough of this flirting, I want my doll back and the flesh you cut from my body and any product you made from it. I know witches always dabbling where they are not wanted.”

Chris crouched in front of the doll a fierce frown on his face. “What makes you think we’ll do that?”

The doll grinned showing off sharp little teeth and narrowed its veined miserable eyes. “The witches will never wake again unless I reverse my spell. Return me my possessions and I will restore them. And when I say they will never wake again I mean they’ll be dead in less then 24 hours. Pesky things human souls. They suffocate when away from their bodies to long.”

Snatching up the doll Xander held it level with her face and frowned. “We’ll get back to you with our decision in just a minute . . . till then enjoy this trunk.”

Xander tossed the doll into a small purple trunk full of yarn and slammed the lid. “In the dark, muffled and soundless, trapped in here till I open the lid for you to hear.” Xander chanted as she pointed at the trunk and watched a faint yellowish light surround the trunk and sink into it. Covering it like saran wrap.

Chris raised a brow at Xander. “What are you doing?”

“What? We don’t want him to listen in on how were going to kill him and rescue the Charmed ones, do we?”

Chris grinned.

~I think I like her. I approve.~ Paige said from her spot next to Alexandra.

~Me too. Chris really likes her.~ Phoebe said happily.

Piper frown but her eyes sparkled with a bit of happiness. ~Why am I always the last to hear the juicy news? I like her too. Now lets try and fix our transparency problem.~ Piper said as she tried to poke at her unmoving body only to have her hand go through it.

Chris pursed his lips as he followed behind Lexxy as they made their way toward Gilly’s lair. “Are you sure that this will work? You said that you don’t know a lot about your new power, what if you can’t dazzle Gilly?”

Lexxy gave Chris an odd look. “Is that really what my new power is called or are you just making that up? Dazzle doesn’t sound powerful.”

Chris shrugged. “It’s a rare power. It’s been called the dazzle or the flux or the dark charm. Your power is a cross between the sirens song, empathy, and a dash of clairvoyance.” A thoughtful look crossed Chris’ face. “It’s known as the healing compulsion as well. It can rewrite memories, enhance emotions, and heal mental trauma. It’s a powerful metal power. I met a good witch with the ability; he was a great healer and stood against powerful evils with that gift. I also know that the ability can be easily abused. The flux can be used to erase memories, cause pain, and weaken free will till the person under it is nothing but a flesh puppet. It takes a certain type of witch to control such a powerful mental gift. Some have called it a curse. In fact the witch I knew called it a punishment because before the power surfaced he wanted to be strong for his companions. To have a power that could fight evil, he said the flux was a sharp double edged sword, that it could be easy to use against friend and foe.”

Lexxy did a full body shiver. “God! That’s scary. I know there are spells that could do what I do but . . . I can control things now with my thoughts. It seems like too much power for one witch. What if I get pissed and bitchy and tell someone to take a flying leap!” Shudder.

Chris smiles slightly. “There are others with more power like the Charmed ones. You’re strong but not invincible, there will always be someone stronger. You’re meant to have these gifts Alexandra, it’s in your blood. Just think of your gifts like a bow and arrow, Lexxy. You have the bow and you have the arrow. To use it you have to load the arrow and pull the bow and aim. It takes focus, practice, and control. You’re a good witch Lexxy, I know that just from the short time we’ve been together.”

A frown graced Lexxy’s face her eyes were troubled even as she blushed. “Maybe.” Then her face brightened with a shy smile. “You’re good at the whitelighter thing Chris. You and Mari. Me and the Charmed ones are lucky to know you. They must have a kick ass’d whitelighter school up there in the clouds. And that bow and arrow thing helped, sounds like something I’d say. Using weapons as examples and stuff.”

“Um . . .yeah.” Chris bit at his lip. “The witch I knew with your same power told me that. He was powerful and a great guy. You remind me of him, maybe you and Lavelle were related?”

Lexxy made a small choked sound a confused/worried look on her face. “Really? That’s interesting. When did you meet this Lavelle guy?”

Chris shrugged. “When I was a kid years ago.” In another time.

“Oh.”

***

Xander frowned and had to wonder ‘who’ Chris knew when he was a kid? ‘Lavelle. It’s not a common name. I doubt there is another witch around with my power and I hated my middle name . . . so how?’ Xander wanted to find out more from Chris about this other witch but the latest bad guy was priority for now. Stilling at the entrance to Gilly’s lair Xander searched the place with her eyes and found it empty. No Gilly. Just clown dolls. No demons.

Stepping into the room Xander called out. “Gilly? We’re here. We have the doll now release the witches from your spell.”

Laughter filled the room and the place went completely dark. A think wet blanket of darkness surrounded them and squeezed them tight like metal bands. Xander groaned with pains as her flash started to bruise and bleed as if she was being squeezed by piano wires. She couldn’t move and she could hardly draw any air into her lungs. “Orb Chris! Run!”

Things were so not going as planned. Damn demons never stick to their word. A fair trade! Yeah right! Not that Chris and Xander were going to stick to their word either . . . well kind of, they were going to do the fair trade thing all peaceful like but then turn around and kill the demon afterwards. Stupid demon jumped the gun. Xander saw the blinding light of whitelighter orbs before lack or air took her sight away and she fell into the unnatural darkness. ‘At least Chris got out.’

Minutes or hours later Xander wakes up hanging in chains around her wrists. She looks around blurrily at the shapes in the room since her eyes refuse to focus and sees movement across the room. Xander hears the unmistakable sound of a blade being thoroughly sharpened. Some focus returns to Xander’s eyes as she continues to blink, Gilly is at a work table talking to his dolls as he sharpens a wicked looking knife. ‘Fuck, damn it!’ Xander moves her wrist and tries to wiggle it out without making noise but the cuff is tight around her skinny limbs. “Magic is an amazing thing, huh witch? The cuffs magically shrink to the perfect size.” Gilly’s smarmy voice washes over Xander from across the room.

“Is that right?” Xander swallows and hopes that charm power works on Gilly from a distance. “Let me go.” Xander forces as much power as she could into those two words and is relived when the demons eyes glaze over. He walks jerkily across the room and starts to reach for the cuffs his pasty fingers just touching the cool metal only to get startled by whitelighter orbs. Damn! The blank expression on his face clears and confusion floods his wicked eyes for a second before he faces the newcomer.

Mari pops in and looks around her with wide eyes. “Xanny!”

Xander’s eyes widen in horror when a bolt of demon lightning heads right for Mari. “Mari! Move!”

~I can’t look! ~ Phoebe said as she covered her eyes with her hand. ~She dodged right?~

~Don’t know, I’m not looking either.~ Paige muttered, her eyes tightly closed.

~She orbed.~ Piper said with a sigh of relief and a hand over her heart.

The others sighed too. ~God I hate this! We can’t DO anything!~ Paige growled.

~It’s because we’re not normal ghosts. We’re not dead. The spell gives us no power over the spirit plane.~

~We should try a power of three spell. Maybe that would work, were not dead so we should still have our powers? We can’t just stand around doing nothing but watching.~ Phoebe said as she bit at her lip.

The other two nodded, other spells didn’t work but maybe a spell that combined their power would work. Hopefully.

Circling up they gripped each others hands tightly and closed their eyes. Together they spoke strong and loud. ~The Power of Three will set us free . . . The Power of Three will set us free . . . The Power of Three will set us free . . .~ Then they tilted their heads up heavenward when a rush of powerful magic surrounded them and started chanting one sister at a time. ~ Return us to our natural state . . . ~ Piper chanted.

~Release us from this ugly fate . . . ~ Phoebe said softly.

~Put back our souls before it’s too late! ~ Paige yelled.

And together they chanted. ~The Power of Three will set us free . . . ~ Power built up around them and they could feel their magic battling with the darkness holding them captive. They gritted their teeth as their spell and Gilly’s played tug-o-war over their souls, it felt like two hooks in their chests. The plane of existence around them started to crack and it became hard for them to breathe.

Thankful for Mari’s distraction Chris orbed in behind Lexxy and started unlocking her cuffs by subtly using his witch power to move the tumblers in the cuffs. When she was free he held her wrists for a moment and rubbed feeling back into them. “Your whitelighter is stubborn. I was supposed to be the distraction while she freed you.”

Lexxy sighed then smiled. “Mari is Mari. Wish you guys waited for a moment. Gilly was going to free me all on his own.”

“The flux?”

Lexxy nods. “Yep! And he doesn’t know he fell for it! I think I can get him to reverse the spell. Once the Charmed ones are free they can kill his ass for good.”

“Let’s do it then.”

Making eye contact with an enraged demon while said enraged demon is trying its damndest to kill all the living occupants in the room was not easy. Dodging another bolt of energy Xander ducked behind a book shelf, burnt paper confetti and bits of wood rained down on her head. Pulling a blade out of its sheath Xander used her telekinetic power to make it float before her. Peeking out of her hiding place Xander could see Chris and Mari playing a dangerous game of orb tag with a snarling Gilly. Lucky for them the demon was consumed with to much rage that he forgot he holds the Charmed ones lives in his ugly pale claws. Floating the dagger forward Xander took aim and flicked her wrist to let the blade go. It darted off sailed past Chris’ ear and lodged itself firmly in Gilly’s bloated belly. The demon howled. Xander darted forward as quickly as her blade did and stood in front of Gilly and locked eyes.

“BE STILL.” The words vibrated through the room and even affected Mari and Chris since they too stilled in what they were doing but were not under the thrall the demon was in. “NOW RELEASE THE CHARMED-“

Blue whitelighter orbs appeared in the middle of the large room and the Charmed ones materialized. They waved and smiled.

“—NEVERMIND. RELEASE THE IMPRISIONED DOLL SOULS.”

With that said a witless Gilly waved his hand and bright witch spirits oozed out of each clown dolls eyes. All of the ghosts were smiling as they dissolved into light and were free of their prisons. As each doll was freed and the ghosts made their escapes Gilly started aging before Xander’s eyes. Keeping eye contact with the demon Xander spoke. “Potion. Kill demon now please! Witch getting BIG headache.” Pain built behind Xander’s eyes and pounded in her head like a herd of wild horses in a small room.

Chris shook off his awed daze. “Oh! Right.” Pulling the potion out of his pocket Chris tossed the vial at the demon’s feet. Smoke built up around him and swallowed the clown demon like a black hole there was nothing left of him but a scorch mark and a burnt acorn/dirty sock smell.

Xander rubbed at her aching head and sighed. “Glad that is done.”

The others nodded.

Then Xander frowned at Piper, Phoebe, and Paige. “How did you guys wake up?”

Paige smirks. “Power of three trumps demon magic every time.”
