Charmed

Charmed: Impossible

Int. Living Room, Halliwell Manor. Prue walks down the stairs. Phoebe is sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed and both hands hovering above the Book of Shadows that is open.

Prue: Uh…morning.

Phoebe: Shh! I'm trying to get a premonition.

Prue: And you're doing this why?

Phoebe: Because the Source is going to start sending more powerful demons after us so I want to practice getting premonitions on command so we'll know what kind of demon he may be sending.

Prue: Well, I'm going to the kitchen for coffee. You want some?

Phoebe: No, it might interfere with my powers.

Prue smirks and walks towards the kitchen.

Phoebe continues trying to receive a premonition.

Soon enough, she receives one.

Int. Attic. A demon appears in a flash of purple light in front of Prue and Piper.

Cole and Phoebe shimmer in next to them.

The demon throws a purple energy ball at them.

Phoebe is pulled out of the premonition.

Phoebe: Whoa!

Prue walks inside the living room.

Prue: What's wrong Phoebe?

Phoebe: It worked! I got a premonition!

Prue: Okay. What was it about?

Phoebe: Well, a demon attacked us in the attic.

Prue: Was it the Source?

Phoebe: How should I know? I don't know what he looks like.

A crash is heard.

Prue and Phoebe look at each other in worry.

Cut to scene.

Int. Attic. Piper is on the floor with the demon from Phoebe's premonition standing above her.

The demon reaches his hands toward her neck, but she puts up her hands and freezes him.

But, he starts to unfreeze and successfully grabs Piper by the neck and starts choking her.

Prue and Phoebe run in and Prue throws her arm around and the demon flies back and onto a mattress.

They run to Piper on the floor grasping for air as the demon stands up.

Prue and Phoebe help Piper up.

The demon smiles evilly at them.

He conjures a purple energy ball and throws it at them.

Prue deflects it back towards him, but disappears in a flash of purple light as it heads his way.

The purple energy ball hits an old sofa and it immediately explodes into tiny pieces.

Prue, Piper, and Phoebe sigh.

Fade out.

Fade in.

Int. Attic. Prue and Piper paces around the room.

Phoebe walks in with the book and sits it on the book stand.

She starts flipping through the pages.

Phoebe: Bam! I knew he was in here!

Prue and Phoebe walk to the sides of her and look down at the book.

Prue: That's him alright.

Piper: Yeah, and where were you guys when he knocked me on my ass?

Phoebe: Okay. It says he can only be killed with a more advanced type of his power.

Piper: How are we going to do that?

Voice: You won't.

They turn and see the demon across the room.

Piper puts her hands up and freezes him.

Piper: Okay! Somebody do something. He's going to unfreeze himself.

Phoebe: I don't think so.

Phoebe runs up to him and kicks him making him fly down to the floor.

Phoebe: Hmm, he's not too hard.

The demon stands up.

Demon: Bitch witch!

Prue: Hey!

Prue throws her arm around and he flies away again, but disappears in mid-air.

Prue: Okay. He's probably going to pop back up soon. We need find a way to vanquish him.

Piper: But, we'll need a stronger version of his power? Where are we going to get that?

Phoebe walks back over to them.

Phoebe: Well, how about we just cast the spell that made three Prue's? I mean, that could work, right?

Prue: I'm not going to put myself in that kind of pain if they die, Pheebs.

Piper: We should ask Leo.

Prue: Leo!

Leo orbs in.

Leo: Hey, what's going on?

Phoebe: A demon, that's what's going on.

Leo: What kind of demon?

Prue: One that can only be vanquished-

Piper: With a stronger version of its own power.

Leo: What is his power?

Prue: Um…

Prue looks down at the book.

Prue: Energy balls.

Phoebe: What?

Leo: Well, that's the same kind of power lower-level demons have, just it works differently.

Piper: Yeah, we know that, but he's not a lower-level demon, my power hardly even had an effect on him.

Leo: That's not right. I'll talk to the Elders about this.

Leo orbs out.

Phoebe begins to walk towards the door.

Piper: Phoebe? Where are you going?

Phoebe: Find Cole. You know, maybe he knows who this demon is.

Phoebe walks out.

Leo orbs in.

Prue: Leo, you're back already?

Leo: Yeah, but I didn't get the time to ask them about the demon.

Piper: Then, why are you back Leo? What's going on?

Leo: Um, well, the Elders need you to come up there with me.

Prue: Me?

Leo: Yes.

Piper: What do they want with her?

Leo: I don't know, but they say it's important.

Prue: O-okay. Piper, can you handle being here in case the demon attacks?

Piper: Yeah, I'll be fine. Besides, with my new power, I might even vanquish him.

Prue: Okay.

Leo smirks and grabs Prue's hand and orbs out.

Piper looks down to the book.

Cut to scene.

Int. "Up there" Meeting Hall.

Leo and Prue orb in, side by side.

Prue: Whoa, this isn't how I remember it.

Leo: We do it a lot, to fool evil beings from getting here.

Prue: Oh.

An elder walks up to them.

Leo: Sam.

Sam: How are you Leo?

Leo: Good, I've brought the eldest Charmed One.

Sam: Oh! Nice to meet you, Prudence.

Prue: Nice to meet you Elder Sam.

Sam: Um, Prudence, we asked Leo to bring you up here for a very special opportunity.

Prue: You have? What is it?

Sam: We have decided that through your 3 years of being a witch, you have been the strongest of you and your sisters. As some may put it, the "super-witch"…and also you have protected you three through everything you've dealt with for these three years.

Prue: Um, excuse me; can you get to the point, please? We have a demon that is after us that we're unsure on how to vanquish.

Sam: And that as well…you're the most willing one in your magic. So…as a reward for all of your hard work, we the Elders has decided that you should become…a white lighter.

Prue: What?

Fade out.

Fade in.

Int. Mausoleum. Phoebe walks down the steps towards a wall.

Phoebe: Cole?

Cole shimmers in behind her.

Cole: Phoebe.

Phoebe turns around as she is in shock.

Phoebe: Oh, Cole. First of all, hey baby…

She kissed him on the lips.

Phoebe: ...second of all, we need your help in finding a demon we don't know what power he has.

Cole: Have you checked the book?

Phoebe: Yes, and all it has is his name and what he looks like. He's a back-up assassin for the Source.

Cole: Oh, god Phoebe. It couldn't be him.

Phoebe: What?

Cole: The only magical being that knows what his power is the Source.

Phoebe: Which means…?

Cole: If you need to vanquish him, you would need to go to the Source and ask him what his power is.

Phoebe: Well, can't you-

Cole: No, Phoebe, it would be suicide going back down there. I'm sorry.

Phoebe: Then, what are my sisters and I going to do? He keeps attacking us.

Cole: The best thing you can do is use the power of three.

Cut to scene.

Int. Living Room, Halliwell Manor. Piper walks down the stairs to meet Phoebe running in from the dining room.

Piper: Phoebe!

Phoebe: Piper, we have a problem.

Piper: What?

Phoebe: As it turns out, that demon we saw earlier is the back-up assassin for the Source.

Piper: What?

Phoebe: Yeah, and the only person that knows his power is the Source himself.

Piper: Then we have to find a way to contact the Source. What about Cole?

Phoebe: It's too dangerous for him.

Leo orbs in next to them.

Piper: Leo. Where's Prue?

Leo: Still up there, but the Elders told me something you're not going to like.

Phoebe: Is it that the Source is the only one who knows the demon's power?

Leo: Yeah, how'd you know?

Phoebe: Demon boyfriend.

Piper: We're screwed.

Phoebe: Oh honey, we're not screwed.

Phoebe tries to comfort Piper.

Piper: When is Prue coming back?

Leo: Not for a while, unfortunately.

Phoebe: Okay! Now we're screwed.

Leo: You can't give up.

Phoebe: Why not, Leo? The Source has finally got us, he keeps sending a demon that he knows we or anyone else doesn't know what power he has.

Leo: But, you still can't give up.

Piper: Yeah Leo, and now that Prue is probably not going to be back for a while, we won't even have the power of three to use against the demon.

Leo: Well, then, the power of two will have to do.

Piper: Uh uh, don't use the power of three quotes and change it.

Phoebe: Wait. Leo's right.

Piper: What?

Phoebe: I mean we're not the most powerful witches of all time for nothing, right? We still have our own powers. Maybe, somehow, we can strip his power and multiply it.

Piper: Phoebe's right.

Phoebe: Hell yes.

Piper: If we're going down tonight, we're not going down without a fight.

Piper pulls Phoebe's arm towards her as they run up the stairs.

Cut to scene.

Int. Attic, Manor. Phoebe is throwing ingredients into a smoking cauldron while Piper is pacing around the room.

Piper: I hope Leo gets back with Prue quick enough before the demon gets here.

Phoebe: Don't worry; in case he doesn't, along with the power-stripping potion, I'm making two potions that will strengthen our powers.

Piper nods her head.

Phoebe starts pouring the potion to strengthen their powers into two vials.

As she finishes, the demon appears in his purple light.

Piper: Hmm, you came back later than usual?

Demon: I was just preparing to finally kill the charmed ones like Shax should have done.

Phoebe: Good luck.

Phoebe walks over to Piper's side with the two sets of potions in her hands behind her.

She hands Piper one set of potions behind their backs.

Demon: Be ready to meet the afterlife.

The demon conjures a giant purple energy ball between his hands above his head.

Phoebe: Now.

Phoebe and Piper throw one potion from their set at the demon's feet and smoke rises into him as the purple energy ball disappears.

Demon: What? Where is my power?

Piper: Gone…

Phoebe: And so are you.

Piper and Phoebe throw their last potions to their feet and the smoke rises into their faces and it disappears.

The demon steps back, scared.

Piper flicks her wrists and he explodes, sending a fiery energy wave towards Piper and Phoebe.

Piper and Phoebe fall to the floor.

As the smoke clears, Piper and Phoebe stand up.

Piper: We did it!

Phoebe: Wow. I didn't think that would work.

Leo orbs in, with Prue holding his hand.

Piper: Leo...Prue... we vanquished the demon.

Leo: We know, everyone knows up there.

Phoebe: We made history…again.

Prue: Great job you guys.

Phoebe: Thanks.

Piper: So, what happened up there?

Prue: Can I tell them, Leo?

Leo: Yeah.

Prue: Okay, uh, the Elders asked me to become a whitelighter.

Phoebe: What?

Prue: Yeah.

Phoebe and Piper look at her in shock.

Piper: Well?

Prue: I couldn't accept it.

Phoebe: Really?

Prue: Yeah, I mean, when they asked me I felt proud and strong...wanting to accept it, but...the Elder started showing me around first and while there, I realized that I couldn't leave you two.

Piper: Prue? We're sisters...you wouldn't have to.

Prue: I would, Piper. If I would have accepted the offer, I would have charges every day and I see how Leo has to manage between us and his charges and-

Phoebe: You felt you would have to do the same to us.

Prue nods her head.

Prue: It felt good to not be a whitelighter, those Elders were giving me headaches just talking to them.

Prue, Piper, Phoebe, and Leo laughed.

Phoebe: I'm going to Cole to tell him the news.

Prue: And I'm going to P3...Piper, you coming with me?

Piper: Yeah.

Piper walks over to Leo and kisses him on the lips and hugs him.

They walk out the attic together.

Fade out.
