The Witches

The next morning.

"What are you doing, mom?" Cordelia asked when she walked in and saw Fiona typing on the computer.

"Trying to find Joe's family."

"Shouldn't they all be dead by now?"

"Well yeah but I'm going to bring them back for him."

"Why?"

"I mean not forever but.. Delia, sit down." Fiona sighs.

"Okay.."

"So.. Joe had a two year old daughter and a newborn son when he died."

"What?! Why has he never mentioned them before?"

"He wasn't a good father.  He never even met his son.  Doesn't even know his name.  He was ashamed."

"Oh.. So that's why he was so excited for Tobias? You both saw him as a chance to start over."

Fiona nods her head, but gets a sad feeling in her heart when hearing her son's name.
"Yes but.. I'd like to think I've still done that with you."

"You have! I actually don't hate you, and kinda like living here."

"Good, I'm glad!" Fiona laughs.

Cordelia chuckles and walks towards the computer.
Fiona turns around and Cordelia wraps her arms around her shoulders as she looks at the screen.

"Any luck?"

"Nope."

"Move over, let me try."

Fiona laughs as Cordelia sits on her lap.

"Oh goodness! I was moving, but this works too." She chuckles.

"Harris and Florence De Luca. That's his last name?"

"Yeah."

"I like it!"

"It's okay." Fiona makes a face and shrugs.

"He's Italian?"

"Yep. Are you finding anything?" Fiona lightly taps her side.

"Give me a second!"

"Okay!"

After a few short minutes Cordelia gasps.

"What?! What'd you find?"

"They were killed."

"What?!"

"Yeah.." Cordelia read the story, and something side of her made things very very clear. Cordelia's powers were growing stronger and stronger everyday, and slowly she was learning how to properly use them.

"Delia? Delia!"

"Sorry.. Mom.."

"What?"

"It was the witches.  They killed them."

"What?"

"I-I see.. I see them.."

"What are you saying?"

Cordelia grabs her head and squeezes her eyes shut.

"Delia!  Are you okay?"

Things suddenly went back, and Cordelia past out in her mother's arms.

"Cordelia!"

**

Slowly Cordelia opened her eyes.

"Oh thank God! Delia, what happened?"

"I.. this has never happened to me before."

"What did you see?"

"A group of witches.. they walked into their home and shot them, mom!" Cordelia was in tears over what she saw.

"Florence, Harris, and the baby! How could they do that?! I know Joe was bad but.. they were babies!"

"Oh wow.." Fiona was in shock.

"How do you tell Joe that your own kind killed his family?"

"Honey, I didn't do it!"

"Yeah but our sisters did!"

"I just have to tell him. He has to know!
We have to find where they are and bring them back, Delia."

"You're going to disturb dead babies?  I felt it was strange when I thought these were grown people, but babies?!"

"Well.. just for a little while.  I'll tell them to go back! I just want him to get a chance to say goodbye."

Cordelia narrows her eyes on her mother.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

"You're different, Fiona."

"I am?"

"Yeah.  You're turning into a good person."

"Don't tell anybody." Fiona says with a cheeky smile. "It'll ruin my image."
