All of the sudden there was cold chill spread through the attic and a menacing laugh that didn't have a visible source could be heard. Then Caleb appeared. "Ziva, Aunt Sarah it's so good to see you." He said with a sick smile on his face.

Wyatt orbed next to Ziva and put his shield up. Caleb looked amused "Really, Ziva you need someone to protect you. I thought Eli raised you better than that." A wave of anger shot through Ziva and before she could even completely process the thought Caleb was on fire. Sarah began chanting "ashes to ashes, spirit to spirit, take his soul banish this evil." Caleb exploded. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Then he came back "Nice try really but you're going to have to try harder than that to get rid of me." Caleb said with an arrogant tone of voice. He absent mindedly traced his fingers around a red amulet that was around his neck. Then he vanished. Wyatt dropped his shield "how did he survive that?" Wyatt asked feeling completely confused.

Ziva walked over to her mother who had her head down in the book of shadows. "Do you know something, about that ima?" Ziva asked quietly. "The amulet that he had belonged to your grandmother. She put a charm on it before she went to Auschwitz. The amulet heals you from any human or magical attacks and amplifies your defensive powers." Then she turned to her daughter "I'm sorry, honey"

"How could he have gotten ahold of it?" Piper asked Sarah. "I don't know." Sarah responded. "Do you think Nettie could've given it to him?" Ziva asked quietly. "No, Nettie doesn't want anything to do with magic. She wouldn't even have it." "You said if that Caleb didn't know about magic. How is that possible?" Phoebe asked curiously. "Nettie always had a hard time dealing with magic. She thought that it corrupted you, made you evil. She bound her kid's powers right after they were born and never told them about magic."

Ziva looked at her mother then back to the charmed ones. "Can I go somewhere with her?" she asked while pointing to her mom. "Yes of course. Paige can get you when we need you." Piper said trying to hide her enthusiasm. Ziva turned to Wyatt "Do you think you could give us a lift?" "Absolutely" Wyatt said before waving his hand and making them disappear in orbs.

They appeared in Ziva's bedroom. Sarah looked at it with new eyes it was the same room she had as a child but it was different. The room itself was darker with the main colors being red and black. It was all carefully constructed and decorated to keep people out.

"Do you want to sit down?" Ziva asked trying to break the silence. "Sure" Sarah said taking a seat at the edge of Ziva's bed. Ziva began to pace in a circle wanting to talk to her mother about something but not quite sure how to bring up. "Is there something you want to talk about?" Sarah asked. Ziva stopped pacing and stood in front of her mother. "Yes but I don't know how to talk about it." Sarah nodded "is it about-?" Ziva cut her off "it's not about Caleb." She said definitively.

"OK then what's it about?" Sarah asked feeling slightly relieved. Ziva paced for a moment and then stopped. "It's about Michael." She finally admitted. "Your friend Michael, what about him?" Sarah's curiosity was piqued. Ziva let out a nervous chuckle took a deep breath and finally said "I slept with him." "You guys are dating?" Sarah asked trying to contain her surprise. "No we are not." Just as Sarah was about to say something else they heard the front door open and shut.

They're went downstairs to see who had arrived. As they were walking down the stairs Sarah if saw who it was and said "Honey I'm home." Eli's head snapped up at the voice. His eyes widened with shock and his jaw almost hit the floor.
