"Liza I won't be into the club until later, so do you think you can handle things until I get there?" Piper asked talking on her cell phone. She walked in from the foyer.
"Really? Okay, I'll see you around 6p.m. Bye"
Piper turns to Paige, who is looking out the window.
"Hey stranger. What's wrong with you?" Piper asked wrapping her arm Paige.
"Henry and I had another fight." Paige said sighing.
"About?"
"I kinda of stood him up last night." Paige sad looking sheepish.
"And how did you stand your husband up Paige?" Piper asked.
"Well it's not like I forgot." Paige answered defensively. "One of my charges got attacked by some replicator demons, and it got a little messy."
"Why didn't you get me or Phoebe?" Piper asked crossing her arms.
"I wanted to handle it on my own. Normal whitelighters don't have the power of three to fall back on. I want to prove that I can handle my whitelighter duties on my own." Paige said standing proudly.
"And how's that working out for you and Henry?"
Paige's face dropped.
"Your mean." Paige responded.
"No, Paige I'm honest. Piper said walking towards the kitchen.
"Uh, why can't our lives by simple?" Paige started. "I'll tell you, it's magic and demons.
As Paige said the last part of her sentence she gestured towards the sofa. It was instantly covered in white orbs and then it morphed into a replicator demon.
"Oh this is not good." Paige said backing up.
"Paige what did you do?" Piper asked backing up with Paige.
"It's not my fault. New powers are hard to control. You should no that better than anyone." Paige shot back.
"Well I don't care. I won't my sofa back now."
At that moment the replicator demon formed a glowing white sphere in his hand.
"Oh, screw this." Piper said.
She raised her hands to blow him up.
"Piper no!" But Paige was too late.
As soon as Piper's powers hit the demon, he split into two identical demons both holding the same white sphere.
"What the hell happened?" Piper asked.
"Remember I said it got messy? Well this is how."
Both demons hurled the sphere's at Piper and Paige. Piper raised her hands freezing ther spheres and the demons."
"Okay Paige these are your demons. How do we vanquish them?" Piper asked her hands still raised.
"Um, the power of three." Paige said "I'll go get Phoebe.
Piper turned towards the ceiling shouting "Don't come back without her or your orbs are grass."
Piper sighed. "This is gonna be along day."
Bay Mirror
Paige orbed into Phoebe's office.
"Paige what are you doing here?" Phoebe asked looking up from her laptop.
"What? You can't say hi to your baby sister?" Paige asked grinning.
"Uh, Paige what did you do?" Phoebe asked standing up.
"Why do you automatically assume that I did something? I mean, It's not like everything..."
"Paige! You're rambling." Phoebe interrupted her.
"Oh fine! I accidentally turned the sofa into a demon that requires the power of three and Piper is there and they're frozen, but that probably won't last much longer so we should hurry." Paige took a deep breathe.
"Wow. Okay so let's go. And we'll talk about the sofa later." Phoebe said before Paige orbed her out.
Back At The Manor
Phoebe and Paige orb in next to Piper
"Well it's about time I thought you'd forgotten about me." Piper said.
"Oh never. You nag to much." Phoebe giggled.
"Ha ha very funny. Paige the spell?" Piper asked.
Phoebe turned to Paige who turned away.
"Paige!" Piper shrieked.
"Oh fine I forgot to write one. Sue me." Paige shot back.
"More like kill you." Piper responded.
"I think I've got one." Phoebe interrputed. "Here grab my hands."
They linked hands and Phoebe started to recite a spell.
"Spirits of air, forests and sea,
Converge by the call of we witches three,
Demon hide your evil face,
By the power of three obliterate."
Both of the demons instantly unfroze and burst into flames. They screamed out in pain before finally exploding.
"Wow, Impressive spell. You just had a power of three spell lying around?" Piper asked Phoebe.
"No. I just combined a few olds spells and reworded them for the power of three. After all these years it's easy."
She turns toward Paige.
"Now exactly how did you make the furniture attack?" Phoebe asks grinning.
"Well..." Paige starts
Underworld
"The witches are definitley growing stronger. Soon it will be the perfect time for me to act." Mor'tron spoke to himself.
Suddenly a demon shimmered into Mor'tron's lair.
"You summoned me, Mor'tron. The demon asked sounding annoyed.
"Yes. I need you to attack a witch for me. Say around 3:00 p.m." Mor'tron responded.
Bay Cafe 2:55 p.m.
"Henry I understand that you're upset, but it's not like I can call in the middle of a battle to say I'm gonna be late."
"Why not?" Henry asked folding him arms.
"I don't believe this. It's not like I get on your head about not calling me when your dodging bullets." Paige said.
"That's different Paige." Henry said looking away.
"Your right. Bullets are easier than fireballs." Paige said taking a sip of her water.
"Paige, I don't see why..." Henry stops noticing pays ignoring him. "Paige?"
"Henry, I have to go. One of my charges is calling." Paige said standng up.
"Oh go. Just go. It's not like your husband takes priority." Henry said standing.
"You know what Henry?" Paige asked.
"Do I know what Paige?" Henry said walking away from the table.
"Don't walk away when I'm talking to you." Paige said trying not to shout.
"Yeah, yeah." Henry kept walking.
"Henry!" Paige shouts.
"What!?" He shouts back.
Paige steps out from around the table. She notices a cakes sitting on the counter in the restaurant She makes sure no one is looking and then turns back to Henry.
"Oh I just wanted to say you forget dessert. How about some CAKE!"
The cake orbs from the stand and hit Henry square in the face. He stumbles back and falls. Paige grins and then looks around again before orbing out.
"A witch. I just had to marry a witch." Henry mumbled wiping cake from his face.
Alley
Paige orbs in the alley to see Taylor fly across the alley.
"Garbage Bags" They garbage bags orbs out and reappear just as Taylor was about to hit the ground.
Paige turns to face the demon. We see that it is the same demon from Mor'trons lair. He hurls a fireball directly at Paige.
Paige holds out hard hand. "Fireball."
The fireball ball is covered in white orbs. When the orbs disappear the fireball is gone, but an athame is left in it's place. It continues to fly at Paige and strikes her in the shoulder. She falls to the ground. The demon starts to move towards Paige when Taylor starts to get up. The demon stops in his tracks and looks tro the sky. He hears a voice in his head.
"That's enough. Return to my lair." Mor'tron's voice echoes in the demons head.
Just as Taylor stands up he shimmers away. Taylor turns and notices Paige with an athame sticking out of her arm. She runs to Paige.
"Marcus! Marcus it's Paige hurry!" Taylor yells as she kneels down to Paige. She pulls out the athame just as Marcus orbs in. He places his hands over the wound and they began to glow instantly closing her wound. Paige sits up and turns to Marcus.
"Thank you." Paige says catching her breathe.
Marcus says nothing and orbs away.
"Well I guess he's still dealing with the whole, my brother's a darklighter thing." Taylor says turning to Paige.
"I guess so. Let's get to the manor." Paige says.
She takes Taylor hand and they disappear in orbs.
Underworld
The demon that attack Paige and Taylor appears.
"Master, why did you stop me from killing the witches. I had them." The demons speaks.
