Maida jumped when she saw someone orb in only to see it waqs Skylar another of the cousins she didn't know very well. That was one thing she would never get used to in this house is the lack of privacy and...orbing. She rolled her eyes as Skylar started to flaunt his powers and even went as far as saying he was a Charmed One. She knew fairly well from her mother and grandmother that that died when Piper did. Could it come back. She rolled her eyes again as Skylar orbed the book to himself and she walked over from her place next to the table.
"Well so much for being a Charmed One if you're using your powers for personal gain..."
She thought back to the spell she had written down but shook it off telling herself that it was fine running a thin polished finger over the book still not sure whether she belived Skylar or not. She looked up only to see Skylar healing Matt's hands and then ask him what was wrong.
"He's not going to tell you or let you help...."
She looked up seeing that Matt's expression had changed and she quickly opened the book again searching for the blocking spell. She found it but it said that it was supposed to last at least twenty-four hours. Did the demon find a way through it.
"Matt....is everything all right?"
She looked over toward Skylar in a slight confusion setting the book down on the table and knealing infront of Matt staring up at him.

Glaring at Matthew. "Excuse Mr. Priss. I just wanted to help." then hearing Maida's comment about not wanting to let anybody help. "And, it isn't Personal Gain if you're helping another witch. He after all is an Innocent. Aren't you?" Skylar asked him, turnign his gaze on him. His Green eyes glaring at him, as if he was boring into him. "However, if I am not needed. Then I will go, you can just sit there, lose it, and probably die from Blood loss." he said, resulting to the worst conclusion as usual when somebody acted like that towards him. Glaring at him once more. "And you don't believe me do you?" he asked Maida, turning his focus to her. Knowing neither of the two would believe it. He however, could tell something was wrong with Matthew. Running over spells he had seen in the book so many years before. Grabbing a candle and a lighter. He lit it, closing his eyes. The words began pouring out of his mouth.
"As plain light shadows And truth ends fear Open locked thoughts To my mind's willing ear May the smoke from this candle Into everywhere creep Bring innermost voices To my mind in speech"
Immediately, things started appearing in his head and ears. He however just ignored them, extinguishing the flame, he looked at Matthew. Straining his eyes on the spot next to him, where he had been minutes before. An exact copy of himself shown up, an athame stuck where his heart would be, and blood scattered over his shirt. Knowing how he would feel just seeing this, it was painful for himself, however he had to keep focus, looking at the athame, imagining how painful it would be to be lying there. It was a demons weapon, and they usually had them poisoned or something of the sort.

Matthew listened to Skylar start firing back and he glared at him with his brown eyes and his lips pursed. "I dont NEED your help Mr. Charmed One." He spoke coldly. He listened to what he said next and he growled somewhat and blinked except this time his eyes were glowing a maroonish color again. He got up and shoved Skylar. "Back off wonderboy." He spoke in a demonic voice. He watched him go over to the book and he started to charge towards him and went to grab him by the neck to start choking him but he started to do a spell.
Once he heard what it was he dropped his hands from Skylars neck and he growled. "How dare you." He spoke in a possessed demonic voice. He grabbed the place where the book was and threw it across the room as he glared at Skylar with his maroon eyes and a snarl on his face. "Reverse it. NOW!" He demanded as he slowly started to walk towards Skylar. Meanwhile there was a battle in his mind that only Skylar could hear...
-------------------- [[note Matt is bolded and demon is italicized and note these are all thoughts so Matthew isnt saying anything xD]]
"Leave me alone! Why are you making me do this I have nothing against Skylar?" Matthews strained voice in his mind demanded the demon. "Get him Matthew. He is hiding things too. We both know how much you hate being lied to. Hes a Charmed One. You are just as powerful as he is so why should he get all the glory? Kill him." "No I dont want to.... What is he hiding?" "Why dont you ask him for yourself? Dont you trust him?" "I... I dont know." "Face it Matthew. Your alone. Always have been always will be. None of them understand you. No one understands what you have been through." "B-But..." "The only one you can trust is yourself and Prudence. The both of you are alone. All you have is each other." "I thought you just said I was alone." "You are... Cant you feel it? Dont fight it Matthew. You want Skylar out of the picture. Destroy him. You are more powerful." "I....I... Stop it." "Do it." --------------------
"Kill him." Matthew spoke out loud in the demons voice as he grabbed a random athamae in the room. But suddenly the athamea disappeared as well as Skylar. He looked around the room with his maroon glare when he saw the body. His facial features softened as the maroon slowly faded back to brown. "S-Skylar?" He spoke as he walked towards the body not blinking once. "What have I done?" He asked himself. "Exactly what you should have. " The voice tormented and he shook his head and looked over at Maida with wide eyes and he took off in a run out of the attic and down the stairs. Not sure where he was running. Basically as far away from them as he could.... He..Killed...Skylar. [/blockquote]

Maida stood there watching as the demon overtook Matthew's thoughts again. She back up and turned around as Matthew shouted at Skylar again. She looked around for something that could possibly even just knock out Matthew so he wouldn't do anything to not only hurt himself, but hurt her or Skylar either. She heard Matthew get up and run out the door and down the stairs. She turned around only to see Skylar bleeding on the ground with an athame in his chest. She stared at him unable to move or do anything in shock, and to think only minutes ago she was bored with her day and decided to come here. She didn't hear Matthew anymore and she slowly stepped around Skylar not even sure what to do. She didn't know anyone that she could call and she didn't even know if he was still alive. She grabbed stood up remembering her purse and searched for her cell phone, but failed to find it not sure if she should leave Skylar alone or not. She decided that he didn't look like he was breathing and she ran out the door and charged down the stairs and ran into the kitchen. She threw things around searching for anything that could possibly be of help. Not finding anything she walked to the island pounding her fist down and stepping back sending the island flying across the kitchen in anger. She flung open drawers but still couldn't locate anything and not even knowing who she could call. She walked out of the kitchen and into the foyer spotting the couch and focusing on it about to rocket it across the room, but deciding agaisnt it only causing it to move a few feet. She sighed standing there staring at the front door with her hands on her hips at a loss of what she could do.

Watching as Matthew's face eased up. Hearing the battle in his head, made him experience what he was going through. Now, watching as Maida looked down at the body, it disappeared in a cloud of mist. Orbing down to the kitchen where he could hear drawers being slammed. He watched as the island flew through the air, then watched as she about made the couch fly, but just moved it. "Maida, calm down!" his soothing voice ran through the house, hoping she wouldn't get mad at him and try to blow him into a million pieces, or make him hit a wall. He maybe a whitelighter, but they can't heal themselves. He sighed, inching toward her. Putting his hand on her shoulder. "It's okay, I did it so he would calm down. He may be pissed, but he's calmed down now." he explained to her. Hoping that when he figured out he had did it to save himself, he would try to strangle him. "But, did you notice when he picked up the book. It didn't run from him. He's still got some good in him, he just needs that side brought out of him." he explained to her. He backed away, in case she also decided to lose it. He closed his eyes and sat down on the floor, rising up on a cloud of orbs, his legs folded, his hands on his knees, he began trying to sense for Matthew, not finding him though. "I can't find him." he said lowering back to the floor, and hopping up to his feet. Sighing, waiting for her to explode on him.

Matthew kept running till he finally came across the park and felt like he was going to pass out from sprinting from the house to here. He walked over to a tree and leaned against it trying to catch his breath. He looked up and slid down his back onto his butt. He shook his head and pulled his knees up to his chest resting his chin on his knees as he stared at his feet. The odd thing is that he felt like he was supposed to be extremely upset. But he wasnt... Just calm.
---------- Why did you make me kill Skylar?.... I didnt make you do anything... That was all you Matthew... You killed Skylar... ...N-....No I didnt..... You made me do it! I just suggested you to do it.... You are the one that chose he should be dead... And you dont regret it... Look at yourself you are hiding in the park instead of trying to help him or going to get help...... Its your fault hes dead.... I-It is my fault..... I cant go back now...... Find Prudence....... She will help you....... Only her and I understand you...... I-I.... No I cant tell her.... She will be upset with me...... Tell me Matthew..... What did you feel when you let it all go? And dont lie cause I was with you when you experienced. I-.....I dont know. Think about it Matthew........Relief.......... power......... superiority.......... and happiness.... Skylar may be dead but look at you... You've never been this strong in your life.... Giving it up to your anger... Its your biggest power. ..........Maybe..... There now you are making sense. ----------------
Matthew closed his head resting it against his knees. He felt so confused. What the voice spoke was truth though... Skylar was dead and it was because he let it all go. Yet for some reason, like the demon said, he felt he gained more than what was lost. And he felt slightly ashamed. Skylar done nothing wrong to him that he knew of. And he took his life like the scum he was. Everything was happening so fast he just didnt understand anything anymore. [/blockquote]

Maida jumped and yelled shoving Sklyar when he touched her arm revealing his presence to him and not seeing a drop of blood on him.
"What the hell is wrong with you?"
She rolled her eyes letting ut a sigh of relief that he wasn't dead and then he explained his reasoning for the illusion. That was one thing that she hated was that Skylar could trick her into believing anything. She looked at the couch slowly moving it back into place before turning back to him and crossing her arms scared at Skylar not knowing hwere Matthew went.
"Well he doesn't want help and if he doesn't find that demon soon he's going to end up with Prudence..."
She stared at Skylar before shoving him again.
"You couldn't atleast clue me into the illusion? Instead you make me come down here completely freaked out and make me start tearing up the house. you know sometimes I think you have problems Skylar, maybe thats why you and Mischa get along better..."
She smirked showing she was only teasing with him with the mention of her identical twin setting her hands on her hips again.
"Well you can't find him through sensing, so where do you think he went?"

Feeling her shove him, he didn't care, but stood there and took it. Feeling sorry for her, knowing he should've warned her. Then heard something about her twin.
"You couldn't atleast clue me into the illusion? Instead you make me come down here completely freaked out and make me start tearing up the house. you know sometimes I think you have problems Skylar, maybe thats why you and Mischa get along better..."
"Well, maybe, but I doubt it. I didn't have the time, didn't you see him there, charging at me?" he asked her, knowing she had hopefully. Then another conversation appearing in his head. "I - I can here his thoughts. The Demon, he- He's egging him on. And telling him he should've killed me. And, that he gained more than he lost. And, that he's more powerful than me, when clearly I just tricked him and you into believing I was dead. Stupid demon, I hope he burns in hell for eternity." he explained to her.
"Think about it Matthew........Relief.......... power......... superiority.......... and happiness.... Skylar may be dead but look at you... You've never been this strong in your life.... Giving it up to your anger... Its your biggest power." trying to get his voice as close as he could to the Demon's. "Don't worry, I haven't turned, but I can make myslef look like another by illusions." he explained to her. "That is just a branch off my witch power. [/b]" he said shortly after. " But, I told you the Demon was egging him on." then hearing a remembering a fragment from the beginning of the conversation. " He's in the park." he said to her, gazing at her. " But, I'm afraid if I go, that he would try to kill me. The Demon there egging him on. And, I would end up just like you seen it up there. Will you go talk to him? And make sure, you still act like I'm dead. Tears in your eyes. Your voice cracked etc." he explained to her, waiting for her reply.[/center]

She stood there listening to him and they way he changed his voice. She back up not sure what was going on until he later explained that it was a simple white lighter power. She rolled her eyes and crossed her arms shaking her head.
"How can you ask me to do that. If you wanted an actress you need to go find Mischa and have her talk to him. I can't act like your dead and lie to him full knowing that you're alive, and much less Skylar I won't do it. He tried to kill me earlier too and I don't need him finding out that i lied and coming after me after he turns evil because unless he gets his power down soon and is able to go back in time to confront this demon you know him and Prudence are going to team up and no offense I don't want my name on that hit list...."
She stared at Skylar and nodded confirming that she simply wasn't going to act like he was dead.
"Now I'm not saying you should go either, but what Matthew needs is help and I've already offered that to him and he's turned it down so I'm at a loss of what I can do to help him wihtout him actually letting me..."

Watching as she crossed her arms, he let out a sigh, because she said she wouldn't do it. "Well, I guess this is why my powers are handy." he explained to her. "Because I can make an illusion and orb it to him, he would never know the difference until he went to stab me..." he said trailing off, deep in thought. "And, Maida, your name won't be on that Hit List, as of right now, I am the one he wants." he told her, a bit of concern in his voice. Letting out another sigh, he strained his eyes on the place in front of him. What seemed to be his clone appeared out of a bit of mist, and waved his hand, the copy flying up in the tiny jingle of lights, only moments later to re-appear in the park, a few feet from Matthew. The words ringing in his ears.
"Think about it Matthew........Relief.......... power......... superiority.......... and happiness.... Skylar may be dead but look at you... You've never been this strong in your life.... Giving it up to your anger... Its your biggest power."
The anger wanting to pour out of him, though it couldn't, as it couldn't yet do anything. Partly, because Skylar was starting to lose focus thinking about Matthew. He shook his head, imagining that he was there, right by the illusion, telling it what to do. He sat down, crossing his legs as if he were a Full Whitelighter, trying to sense one of his charges, he however knew that couldn't be true. He closed his eyes, looking down at Matthew, his features, the look on his face. He could hear the Demon's voice still in his head. How he hated it. It really was bad, as it was finally beginning to take him over. Completely.

Matthew sat there staring at his shoes when he felt someone appear and his head shot up and his eyes widdened to see it was Skylar. "S-Skylar?" He spoke getting up backing up to the tree wondering if this was supposed to be some kind of joke of some sort. No.... Well look at this Matthew.... Skylar tricked you...... He wanted you to feel pain..... He wanted you to think he was dead......... Believe me........... Hes still prying through your thoughts....... Listening to everything.........
Matthew stood up straight and took a step forward away from the tree. His features turning immediately angry. Skylar..... Get out of my head........ You are just making it harder on myself and you....... Matthew thought to himself as he glared at Skylars clone. Wait Matthew... Dont do anything just yet....... This may another trick........ The demon spoke and he stopped in his tracks. His fists clenched on his sides. Matthew get rid of this clone..... then take care of Skylar...... The Charmed Ones will be no more. Know what that means dont you? Nobody will be in your way.
Matthews eyes started to change but in a slightly faded maroon. He reached into his pocket and walked over to Skylars clone. "Teach you to mess with me...." He spoke in a demonic voice as he grabbed Skylars clone by the shirt and took out his pocket knife stabbing it into the clones stomach. He smirked and turned the knife before leaning to Skylars clones ear. He was sure Skylar could hear him wether it was a clone or not. "You cant beat me Skylar..... May the better witch.... or demon win....... And trust me I will........." He spoke in the demons voice before taking the pocket knife out of Skylars clone and putting it into his pocket letting the clone go.
Of course this wasnt smart seeing as this was in a park. People started to scream and run around in all kinds of different directions. Matthew looked around the park his eyes glowing a blood color as he looked at the mortals running around and he smirked. Lets have some fun Matthew......... The demon spoke and Matthew smirked. "Oh yes lets...." He spoke in the demonic voice as he started to walk towards the mortals taking his pocket knife back out and flipping it open. Matthew wasnt Matthew anymore. He had absolutely no control over the demon until he did something to regret. Matthew was in his mind trying to battle it. But lets just say that the demons voice was louder then his own.

Maida sat there watching as Skylar sent his clone to Matthew but then started to concentrate harder than she had seen him before. She knew something was wrong by the look on his face and this time she couldn't help the need and want to help him. She ran out of the house and to her car immediately driving to the parked. She jumped out of her car slamming the door only to be grabbed by someone telling her she needed to leave. She pushed the person out of her way seeing Matthew standing in the park.
"Matthew!"
She called his name standing on the curb slowly walking up to him her hands shaking. She knew she had control over herself and her powers, but this was her first time dealing with a demon even if it was only through one of her cousins. She slowly approached him to see Skylar's clone was gone, but Matthew still seemed to be on the look for revenge. Maida only hoped that she wasn't doing something stupid. Where was help when she needed it? She crossed her arms forcing herself to being angry thinking about her father. She stared at Matthew ready as she stood only a few feet away from him.
"Don't do something you're going to regret Matthew....You know you get control back...think of the attic Matthew..."
She stared at him her breath becoming shaky as she stared at him, but still forcing herself to become angry with him.

Hearing the door close, his eyes snapped open. Scanning the room for anybody. No one. He sighed, getting up. Knowing exactly where Maida would be going. He rolled his eyes, as he orbed to the Park. Watching from afar how Maida was trying to get Matthew's attention. He looked at the kinfe he had in his hand. A look of disappointment crossing his face. He ran over to where Maida was and looked at her. "Maida..." he said softly.
He watched as Matthew ran through the park. "Maida, I'm going to leave. You however, you need to keep yourself safe. Remember, I may not be a full Whitelighter, But I can still come when needed." he said softly once more. Orbing out before Matthew would see him, or even worse Maida. Hopefully, she would be able to control her powers enough to keep him from hurting her. [/color][/center]
