Cole
:: Shimmering down into the underworld, Cole picked out an old haunt that was his favourite, when he first started out that is. He discovered several demons, which were reluctant to aid him at first, until his eys had shown flames, and two or three had perished. Turning and looking at the remaining, he smirked as they bowed to him - calling him the new Source and their leader ::
"Rise. There's work to do."
:: He spoke simply, but with command only a powerful leader could have.
Cole moved through the most direct route to the Source, drawing who was in his way to his way of thinking. By the time of his arrival, he knew the old Source would expect him ::
"Did you miss me?"
:: He smiled, showing no fear. Obviously this guy was new, inexperienced, because his anger flared. Leaping from his throne, the to-be old Source created a flameball in his hand ::
Brute strength eh?
:: He thought, creating his own and throwing it as the other threw his. Cole's won, flames continuing forward until Cole himself clicked and froze it ::
"This is for all to hear. Belthazar is back."
:: Cole announced, before allowing the flames to consume the old head demon, already taking his throne before the stupid being had finished turning to ash. Looking around, he smirked as all the demons bowed to him ::
"Soon we will take the world by storm. Soon, my friends, you will once again witness a Charmed One sharing the throne of evil."
:: An uproar was heard, and Cole laughed at how easy it was to control the masses. He hoped Krista would be drawn by the energy flares the easy victory had produced. Then she would not only have her place by her own hand, but also by position and rank gained through family ties ::

Krista
::Cole was certainly right, she was drawn to the energy that was being created, she shimmered beside her father looking at all the demons before him, she then looked at the ash on the floor, in front of the throne::
"I take it that was the old source then?"
::She said with no surprise, then looking up at the demons she smirked and crossed her arms, weight on one hip::
"Oh dad, you do know how to take your place don't you?"

Cole
:: Smiling at his daughter, Cole stood. ::
"This was the easy part"
:: He looked around at the demons, then casually created a fireball and threw it into a gap in the center of them all ::
"Leave! Now!"
:: Cole's look would have been enough, but the fireball encouraged even the most disagreeable demon to leave. One demon remained in the corner, clothed in Seer guise. But Cole was sick of them by now... Until Phoebe became part though.... ::
"Seer, I will speak with you later."
:: A bowing of her head before she shimmered was enough to know of her loyalty. Cole turned back to Krista ::
"Were you enjoying yourself?"

Krista
"Hmmm yes, well I think my power or coordination might be a bit off as I tried to shimmer down here and I ended up in the wasteland, and it was pretty hard for me to get out but apart from that yes, how about you?"
::Her forehead creased with concern when she was explaining about her shimmering into the wasteland but then smiled when asking her father how he was, he seemed much more relaxed and quite happy with himself::
"Don't you think it's getting a bit too easy for you to take over? I mean theres no challenge anymore, well apart from the Charmed Ones"

Cole
:: Hearing about her lack of co-ordination made him frown. Cole walked to the middle of the room, thinking hard. When Krista spoke again, he looked up and shook his head ::
"There are all your cousins, trying to make the world too good. Fools that believe that it should triumph over evil.. The challenge will be correcting the scale, then tipping it to our side."
:: He spoke matter-of-factly, already having thought it through. The underworld was in disarray, lacking a strong leader (as he had proved), because of all the 'work' those brats were doing. Now it was time to level things out ::

Krista
::Before when her mother was alive she had annoced that she was neutral, but at her mothers death it had swayed her, she wanted revenge::
"So what do you have in mind, I see you have clearly already thought this through"
Hmmm, killed one cousin, but then again, she was a whitelighter...elders could bring her back...

Cole
:: Cole had put some thought into it, deep thought. He wanted Phoebe to stay with him, but there was no denying this world needed shaping again ::
"We'll even things up a little before facing any of them..."
:: He looked at her, then spoke again ::
"Then, either they turn, or they perish."

Krista
"Right ok, but how do we even it up, kill innocent, because you know I really hate doing that, sorry that never got me excited and besides it always stuck..."
::Her face saddened a great deal at the next part that she was going to say::
"...mum always rubbed off on me"
::She soon snapped out of it, more pressing things at hand, she could be all miserable later::
"But tell me what has to be done"

Cole
:: Looking away, Cole silently cursed the trait, yet praised it beyond belief. It was a rarity, and one that could be her saving grace, come a difficult situation. So long as the rest of the demonic community wasn't aware of the 'weakness'. ::
"I'll organise the demons, make a few fake attacks on the Charmed Ones, and their loved ones - whilst some higher level demons and myself take out the innocents. Your job will be to supervise the attacks, without getting too close to the Charmed Ones."
:: He looked at Krista seriously ::
"It has to look random, not organised - I'll leave it in your hands, once I've scared them enough to obey any gesture you might make."

"Oh dad..."
::She frowned and shaked her head::
"...I'm all game for killing a few innocent here, there and I know I'm heiress to the throne but well this? You've always known I havn't exactly been keen on the idea of having all these demons follow me and possibly turn on me...especially the really nasty high level ones"
::She started to bite her thumb nail, a bit nervous at the aspect of her being in charge::
"I mean....oh...I don't know, see mum never wanted me to do this...can't you do it"
::Krista's face waslooking at her dad, waiting, she was expecting him to go off on one::

Cole
:: Looking at her blankly, Cole turned away seething. She wanted to be in on it, she had planned to kill her own aunts! Yet she couldn't face harming innocents or controlling other demons. Phoebe had had qualms about the former, but the latter?! HAH! That had been one of the things she'd enjoyed. He couldn't find the words, he was so angry. Back in the other world, their lives, the underworld had been beautifully organised, so much so that the world was practically under his rule - bar the efforts of the Charmed Ones interfering ::

Krista
"Fine then!"
::She said through clenched teeth, anger rising and also disappointment as she couldn't fulfill her fathers demands::
You know it is harder than it sounds for one who never really did that much work and responsibility
::Even though she could get a demon to do her every whim, organizing was not one of her strong points, one she had still yet to learn from her father. As well as taking big responsibilities, she had always been able to pass it on to the next demon::

"All you have to do is oversee and stop them arguing amongst themselves"
:: He said in a low tone, turning with his eyes flashing, yet some apology somewhere within them. He took a step back toward Krista and half smiled ::
"You can sit in on the meeting. It'll do you good to see how they run when a new Source has just taken control. You'll need to know for your own rule."

Krista
::Krista felt better by this, not so much under pressure, she was starting to look forward to it actually, her mind changing quickly::
"Ok..."
::She said half smiling at the fact she got to sit on in a meeting::
Maybe I will learn something from this?
"...I mean I really should start to take responsibility, sorry dad"
::She said genuinely, she really had to grow a backbone when it came to ruling the entire underworld::

Cole
"It's fine..."
:: He smiled genuinely, apology still lurking in his expression. Putting his hands on her shoulders, he kissed her forehead. With one last smile at his daughter, Cole turned and the Seer appeared ::
"Summon Bosk, a few creepers and a few grimlocks."
