Charmed The Fight Continues episode 4.08 The Grudge
Written by Chris Halliwell
OK, I know a lot of people did not like the Cole twist. But I think that Phoebe is still too young to settle in a serious relationship. No, Cole won't be returning for a while. I still hope you enjoy the episodes, though.
Oh and sorry it took me so long. i got lost due to personal reasons. =)
Prue and Piper are taking their breakfast in the kitchen. Piper is still in her pajamas but Prue is ready to leave for work.
Piper: So, how is William?
Prue: He just lost his brother, how do you expect him to be?
Piper: I just can't believe that a young kid committed suicide, only because his eldest brother was pushing him so much.
Prue: There is a fine line between love and hate, sis.
Piper: Well, as much as I hate what I'm about to say, I don't feel sorry for William.
Prue: Piper, OK, he is a little jerk, he is being haunted by secrets, but, you know what? All these days I've being watching a side of his, one so soft, so sensitive.
Piper: Well he sure is better than Cole!
Prue: Well this is one man I don't understand. He has his girl right where he wants, and then he decides to give up on her?
Piper: I actually care about Phoebe Prue. The last two weeks she's been a wreck. She missed that job interview, which was a sure job for her, she won't eat, she won't go out. She just stays locked in her room.
Prue: Eventually this would happen Piper. Sooner or later.
Piper: I know, but you have to admit, Cole did have a good influence on her.
Prue: What worries me the most is what he is going to do now that he has no root to good. Phoebe was the only reason he started working for our side…
Piper: So what, you think he will become full time Balthazor again???
Prue: - finishing her meal and getting up – I don't know, but I do know that even if he does become the old bad bad Balthazor, we sure have our way to vanquish him.
Piper won't answer to Prue's hard sentence. She finishes her meal too, and places the plates next to the sink.
Prue: - exiting the kitchen – And please remind Phoebe to bless the crystals again. Last time she forgot to do it and the demons popped in the house like that!

Change Of scene. Cut outside of a creepy house. Three girls are outside. They haven't entered its yard yet. From what they are wearing, we can clearly realize that they are high school girls.
Helena: Come on, you chicken! This is the place we were telling you about! If you really want to join our sisterhood, you have to enter!
Mary: I'm scared! I've heard so many things about this house!
Luisa: Really? Like what?
Mary: I heard that it is haunted! That's what I've heard!
Helena: Oh come on, Mary! Magic and ghosts are for kids.
Luisa: So, are you going to enter or you will make us feel sorry that we even considered of giving you a place in our sisterhood?
Mary hesitates, but then she decides to go ahead and get in. Helena and Luisa share a look that says it all. They are obviously planning a big surprise for Mary.
---
Mary opens the door and enters the creepy house. It is strange how every inch of the house is colored in gray scale. An eerie silence emanates, hitting us right to our bones. Mary enters the kitchen and sees the plates messed up. It's like nobody ate in that kitchen for years! She then continues in the living room. The couches are messed up and the place is like it's hit by a bomb. Then she returns and ascends the stairs(which lie right in front of the main exit door). She decides to walk in the first room. It's pretty obvious that is a kid's room. The same gray disaster occurs in there too. Mary moves to the other room too. This is clearly a couple bedroom. It would be boring to say the same description on this room too… Mary decides to exit the creepy house since she's done with what her friends asked her to do. Suddenly strange cries can be heard. Mary turns around pretty scared!
Mary: Who is there? Hello?
The cries keep increasing. It's like we are hearing a zombie. Mary is terrified.
Mary: OK girls, stop it! It's not funny!
Mary exits the bedroom. Without even realizing, Luisa exits the bathroom and grabs her neck! Mary screams to death, as Luisa and Helena burst into laughs.
Mary: - turning around and crying – You are sick, you know that?
Luisa: - laughing – Oh come on Mary! The expression on your face was hilarious! – talking to Helena – I told you we should have brought the camera with us!
Helena: Well there is always a next time! We will bring Mary here! It will be freaking awesome!
Mary: You guys stop it! THIS IS NOT FUNNY!
She says as she turns around and heads at the exit. Suddenly, another cry sound can be heard. Mary turns around, again, really pissed off, and talks to the girls.
Mary: I TOLD YOU THIS IS NOT FUNNY! WILL YOU STOP FOR PETE'S SAKE?
Luisa and Helena stare each other, really scared.
Mary: What's wrong, can ate your tongue?
Luisa: We… We didn't do that…
Mary: - sarcastically – Right, sure!
Helena: No Mary really! Someone else is in the house too!
Mary: OK, maybe a straw cat. Now, can we leave?
The girls start walking when they hear the same cat cry again, this time more intense. All of them freeze out of fear. Mary decides not to interrupt her traveling for the exit, and ignore all this bad experience, since she's not yet convinced that Luisa and Helena are not behind this cry again. She tries to open the exit door, but half way the door is violently pushed back, firmly shutting!
Mary: - panicked – OK, what's going on?
Luisa and Helena are upstairs watching terrified the scene. Mary turns to them, asking them angry.
Mary: What is this house? Why did you bring me here?
Instead of an answer, another disturbing sound make the girls literally jump out of fear! A sound of a broken neck trying to breathe, a never ending one!
Luisa: My god, Helena! What is this place?
Helena: I don't know, I just read on this newspaper that someone tried to burn it and that it was abandoned! Truly, I know nothing more!
The creepy neck sound increases, as Mary clearly realizes that it is coming from the kitchen. Ignoring the other two, she decides to find out what causes that sound. She carefully walks for the kitchen.
Luisa: Mary, what are you doing? Stop!
Helena: Let's get the hell out of here!
But Mary won't listen. She enters the kitchen, violently pushing the door back! Her heart is surpassed by a wave of agony as she is about to find out what causes the sound! The door open only to see the kitchen like she previously saw it.
Mary: Is this part of the joke, girls?
Nobody answers.
Mary: Girls?
Mary exits the kitchen only to see the main door wide open. It was pretty obvious that Luisa and Helena left the house. Mary decides to leave it too, when she senses something behind her. Something is clearly touching her. Mary is breathing hard. It's the only thing we can hear. Her eyes are as much turned – to the corner - as they can be. She turns her head to that corner, as she can clearly realize the neck sound right behind her. She opens her mouth screaming as loud as she can ever scream, The only thing that is written on her face is pure terror. Her screams are interrupted, as she is trying to breathe through them. Mary screams louder and louder… cut to the opening credits

Cut to Halliwell Manor. Phoebe's bedroom. Phoebe is front of the table mirror. She brushes her hair. Her eyes are red. It's pretty clear that she has been crying. She keeps that for five seconds, as the camera moves closer to her. She decides to put the brush away. Phoebe exits her room and heads for the kitchen, only to find Piper along the way.
Piper: Hey Phoebs, good morning.
Phoebe: - without emotion – Morning.
Piper: - realizing – Are you OK?
Phoebe won't respond.
Piper: Phoebe, I know how much it hurts. But…
Phoebe: But what? Are you going to tell me that this is for the best?
Piper: Well… Well yeah it may be! Now we are sure that you are safe from these demonic bounty hunters!
Phoebe: - shaking her head with disappointment – It's really sad Piper…
Piper: Sad?
Phoebe: Because that what I was saying to you, when Leo was taken away by The Elders. When me and Prue were worried about what they would do to him for breaking so many rules. One of them is orbing us here and there. The other is for your falling for each other.
Piper opens her mouth to answer, but the only she can do is squirt her lips. Phoebe looks at her with a disappointed way and continues her way for the kitchen. Piper stays there, beaten up by Phoebe.
---
Prue enters her tiny office, placing her purse and her coat away. She picks up the phone and calls William.
William: Hello?
Prue: Hey William, it's me, Prue.
William: Oh Prue… Good morning.
Prue: Good morning. How are you?
William: Well, how do you expect me to be?
Prue: William, it's been two weeks now. Don't beat up yourself.
William: Nothing can stop me from feeling responsible Prue.
Prue: Well all siblings have grudges. Do you want to begin confessions?
William: But none of your sisters attempted suicide.
Prue: Well maybe because deep down they are strong humans. Alex wasn't that strong. And…
William: Prue, I knew that he wasn't strong enough. But I kept pushing him.
Prue: Pushing is sometimes required when you need to make a human mature. You have NO idea how much my grams was pushing me when I was younger. To protect my sisters and all.
William: - trying to hide his cries – OK Prue, thanks for calling. I really appreciate it.
Prue: You need to stop beating yourself. Alex wouldn't want you to continue your life so miserable.
William: Oh trust me, if I could hear his thoughts right now… Thank god I can't!
Prue: William…
William: I am responsible Prue. And as long as I feel that way, I won't be able to move on with my life.
Prue: But…
William: Thank you for calling…
He says interrupting the connection. Prue stands there, still holding the phone.
Prue: So you can't hear the thoughts of your dead brother, ha? Well, you are wrong!
---
Phoebe puts some cereal in a bowl. Then she takes some milk from the fridge to complete her breakfast. It's not like she has the required appetite, but she has to eat something. It's not healthy not to have breakfast. She takes some bites. Then, she decides it's time to exit the house and keep on with her life. She lost that job interview last time, and it was a perfect post for her. But she won't quit. She is too young to be so frustrated. She has all the life in front of her. A tone of pride is written on her face, as she abandons the chair and moves to her room, again. But this time to get ready for a job search!

Change Of scene. Luisa and Helena are having some coffee in a modern cafeteria.
Luisa: Oh my god Helena… What were these voices?
Helena: I don't know Luisa. Do you think there was anybody else in the house?
Luisa: I don't know. But it scared the hell out of me.
Helena: We shouldn't let Mary there alone.
Luisa: But we told her to stay away from the kitchen and she wouldn't listen. It's not our fault!
Helena: Still, she was so scared, I thought she would have a heart attack.
Luisa: And you are suggesting?
Helena: We go back and see if she is OK.
Luisa: No way I'm going back there! And plus, do you really think she would had stayed in that house more that one minute after we left?
Helena: Yeah, you are probably right.
Luisa: Our punishment will be her not talking to us again.
Helena: Oh, Im so saaaaaaaaaaaaaaad!
Louisa and Helena burst into laughs without even realizing that a creepy mysterious figure is watching them from a dark corner of the cafeteria.

Change Of Scene. P3. Piper is placing some bottles in order. Leo enters the club from the door. Piper sees him and smiles.
Piper: Hey youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu – she says hugging him and giving a cute kiss –
Leo: - smiling - Good morning.
Piper: - catching a strange vibe – Oh, another mission from your bosses?
Leo: No, not at all. It's Phoebe I am worrying about.
Piper: She will get over it…
Leo: Piper, something is definitely wrong here. Cole loves Phoebe; Like I love you; he would never give up on her.
Piper: Well it seems that he didn't love her so much, at least not that much as we used to think. And really, why does it bother you so much? Isn't this what we always wanted? Phoebe free from demonic love triangles???
Leo: But not with that cost honey. Phoebe is devastated; I seriously believe it will influence her in more that one ways.
Piper: I tried to talk to her in the morning. She wasn't exactly receptive for an open conversation!
Leo: The Elders have psychic powers Piper, you know that. And they sense that Phoebe is in trouble.
Piper: The super kicking witch has nothing to fear!
Leo: And plus she missed that job interview…
Piper: Don't worry; She started the search again.
Leo: Really? Ever since?
Piper: Ever since this morning! OK, can we at least talk for something else other than Phoebe and Cole?
Leo: How about designing an exit as a normal couple?
Piper: Do you seriously believe that we are going to achieve the normality condition? Before the next demon or warlock or evil doom existence hits on us?
Leo: It's worth a try. So, today at 8:00 pm?
Piper: Ok, so, where?
Leo: It's a surprise! I' ll tell you later!
Piper: Ok…
Leo kisses Piper and he orbs out.
Piper: At least he did not orb in the middle of the kiss…
Right after finishing this sentence some guy enters the P3. He walks to Piper. Piper turns around only to see him standing in front of her.
Piper: Excuse me, but we are closed.
Guy: I am here for your on line advertisement. You are seeking for a bar tender, is that right?
Piper: Oh, yes, sure, of course!
---
Phoebe is holding a newspaper checking the advertisement section. She is walking down a street reading.
Phoebe: - to herself – a lady baby sitting for an old woman? Hm, have nothing to lose… - she says trying to find the proper building. Phoebe walks a little more only to find herself standing in front of the creepy house the three school girls were!
Phoebe: Wow, what is this house?
Phoebe checks it a little more and decides to abandon its creepy sight. But then she sees something odd and creepy moving in the house, through one broken window!
Phoebe: Ok, what was that???
Phoebe decides to take a closer look. She touches the garden door determined to open it, when she gets sucked in one of her Full Premonitions! She sees three school girls in front of the house, entering it! Then she sees the girls screaming and Mary's face, written all over it horror! Phoebe gets out of the full premonition!
Phoebe: On no. – pausing for a second – What happened in here?
Phoebe decides to enter the house and explore it! She walks till she reaches the house door. She touches the doorknob to open the door, but then she gets sucked in another premonition! She sees the same premonition she saw at the episode is there a woogy in the house, when grams warned her, not to go down in the basement! Phoebe gets out of the full premonition and makes some steps back.
Phoebe: - to herself – Grams…
She immediately stares again at the broken window, only to see again a strange movement, without exactly realizing what is moving! Phoebe makes even more steps back.
Phoebe: Crap.
That's the last thing she says exiting the garden door running.

Change Of Scene. Cut to a high school class. A professor is giving a maths class. Louisa and Helena sit next to each other. Mary is front of them, scared, terrified and lost in her thoughts. Louisa and Helena look at each other wondering how Mary would feel for them. Mary seems to be in her world, having lost any sort of contact with all the other class. The teacher won't even realize that Mary is not with him.
Louisa: - whispering to Helena – Hey, why is she like that?
Helena: - answering with the same tone – I don't know. We go talk to her later.
---
Phoebe enters the Halliwell manor.
Phoebe: Pipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer??????? Is anybody here?
She won't get any response.
Phoebe: Ok… - she grabs the phone and dials the P3 number –
Piper: Hello?
Phoebe: Piper, it's me.
Piper: Oh Phoebs, hey…
Phoebe: We have problems.
Piper: What problems?
Phoebe: Charmed ones??
Piper: What? What happened?
Phoebe: I am not quite sure. But you need to get here, now!
Piper: Phoebe, I can't leave now, I'm interviewing a guy! Why don't you call Prue?
Phoebe: - she won't answer – Ok, I will check the BOS by myself. Bye.
Piper: Ph – she won't finish her sentence –
Phoebe ends the conversation, heading for the attic.
---
Mary is putting some books in her school cabinet, holding the same face she had in the class. Louisa and Helena are walking towards her, obviously trying to joke with her again.
Louisa: Hey Mary, how are you?
Mary won't respond.
Louisa: Oh, now you won't even talk to us?
Mary slowly turns her head towards Louisa's and looks deep into her eyes. Mary's eyes are filled with terror. Her face is gill. Her lips are trembling, like she is trying to hold her tears.
Mary: - silently – Why… why?
Louisa won't understand; she just looks at her realizing that something is wrong with her.
Mary: I told you why…
Helena: Why what?
Mary: - screaming loud – Why did you take me in this house? WHYYYYYYYY??????
Helena: - surprised from Mary's reaction – Hey come down!
Mary: She is gonna come after you too… You will not escape!
Louisa: Who is gonna come after us? Are you ok? What's wrong with you – placing her hand on her forehead trying to find out if Mary's has fever –
Mary: - pushing her hand away – Don't touch me! It's all your fault!
Louisa: Mary, who is she? What the hell are you talking about?
Mary: - with the same look on her face – You will see… You will see…
That's the last thing she says after she bursts out, leaving Helena and Louisa wondering.

Change Of scene. Prue is coming back home, driving. She parks and exits the car, carrying a bag on her shoulder. She opens the door and places her stuff next to it.
Prue: Ok… I have to do something about William…
Prue heads for the attic. She enters it only to see Phoebe checking the BOS.
Prue: Oh hey…
Phoebe: Hey.
Prue: Amm… I need the Book.
Phoebe: Well yeah I need it too.
Prue: Why? What happened?
Phoebe: I am not sure. But I got a premonition while I was heading for a job interview and I saw three girls in trouble, outside of a creepy house.
Prue: What kind of trouble?
Phoebe: I am not quite sure. I was standing outside the house and tried to get in, and then I touched the garden door and I got it. Then I decided to move further, but another premonition of grams made me not enter it.
Prue: Grams???
Phoebe: Yeah, the same premonition I had when the woogy came back and tried to take over the house.
Prue: Ok, so something must be seriously wrong with that house. If grams visited you in your premonition…
Phoebe: I was checking about creepy houses but I didn't find anything.
Prue: Maybe we should go back at that house and check more?
Phoebe: No, I don't want to.
Prue: Why?
Phoebe: Because I took a strange evil vibe from it. I also saw some strange movement through a broken window.
Prue: Movement?
Phoebe: I am not sure, but something was moving in there!
Prue: Well, you don't have enough clues. Maybe you should search for the girls you saw?
Phoebe: But how? I just saw them in my premonition… Unless…
Prue and Phoebe exchange a look realizing what both have in their mind.
Prue: No Phoebe.
Phoebe: It's not about me Prue; it's about an innocent. Who knows what's going on with in this house and what's after these girls! I saw them scared and one of them screaming!
Prue: Ok, so what do you want? You want me to project to this girl?
Phoebe: Yes, that's what I want.
Prue: But how? I mean, I don't even know how she looks like. I must have a picture in my head, I can't just project to her.
Phoebe: Well…
Phoebe is about to finish her sentence, when she gets sucked in one of her premonitions, again! She sees the one girl, Mary, screaming and her eyes widening out of fear! And after that, she sees her dying! Phoebe comes out of her full premonition, breathing hard!
Prue: What? What did you see?
Phoebe: I saw one of the girls, dying!
The camera focuses on Prue's face, as she realizes that something is seriously wrong and then to Phoebe, who embraces her neck.
---
Phoebe is drinking some water sitting in a couch and Prue is the one standing over the BOS now.
Phoebe: Ok Prue, you really need to project to that girl. In about half an hour, she is going to die!
Prue: Ok, you know what, I don't know even how she looks like, I can't do it!
Phoebe: How did you it last week? You projected to this monster!
Prue: Maybe because it was a demon, or because you described it to me. Octopus demon, blue robes, I sort of knew how it looked like.
Phoebe: Ok, so you need to know how the girl looks like?
Prue: Even in basic level.
Phoebe: Then let's change powers.
Prue: What????
Phoebe: Yeah. Let's do it. You can see through my premonition power the girl and then you can project to her!
Prue: Phoebe, the last time we tried to change powers it backfired on us! And messed up Leo's and Piper's powers too!
Phoebe: Yeah but now neither Piper or Leo are in the manor. We can just cast it, exchange powers, see her, change powers back, project to her and tell her to come here. Then we can move on.
Prue: I don't know. Every time we try indoor family spells we always get troubles.
Phoebe: Prue, help me save my innocent, and I promise I will do everything I can to help you with yours.
Prue is staring at Phoebe knowing that she is right.
Prue: Ok, let's do it.
Phoebe: Find the spell.
Prue flips some pages and finds the spell. Phoebe stands next to her, but with a very cold way. The two of them have some issues on the table and still haven't settled them around. But they have to overcome them for the sake of the innocents.
Phoebe: Here we go…
Prue and Phoebe together: What's mine is yours, what's yours is mine, I offer up my gift to share, switch our powers through the air!
Swirling bright white lights rise from Prue's and Phoebe's body. They switch places and the sisters exchange powers!
Prue: Ok. Let's see if it worked.
Prue tries to move with her fingers, but she can't.
Phoebe: So it worked!
Prue: Yes, now, help me get this premonition.
Phoebe: Ok, so hold my hand and…
Phoebe won't find time to complete her sentence. 5 creatures shimmer in! The alarm goes on(by the crystal cage) and Prue and Phoebe look at them scared. And we know why!
Phoebe: Oh no!
Creature 1: Hello witches!
Prue: Who are you?
Creature 2: We were told that you would be vulnerable so we decided to pay a visit.
Prue and Phoebe look each other worried.
The creatures create athames in their hands.
Creature 3: Time for you to die, witches!
Prue: Ok, Phoebe! Hit them!
Phoebe: I can't just use your powers! Make me angry!
One of the creature throws an athame to the girls, and they duck! The others run to them, and Prue realizes that if they won't do something, they are lost!
Prue: Ok, hold my hand! Chant with me!
Prue, Phoebe: The power of two will have to do! The power of two will have to do!
The creatures are hit by a huge energy wave and they fly backwards! Prue dashes and grabs the athame the creature threw previously at her!
Prue: Ok, Phoebe, how do I use your powers?
Phoebe: Be a free spirit, be a teen again!
The demons rise up, and Prue throws the athame to creature 1. The athame stabs it in its chest and it flames to death! The others prepare for attack, and Prue shouts at Phoebe.
Prue: Cole is a heartless bastard; he gave up on you and he never really loved you; I'm so happy he abandoned you!
Phoebe: - angrier than ever – WHAAAAAAAAT?
Phoebe's anger motivates Prue's power and a couch goes flying to the creatures! All of them fall down, under the couch!
Prue: Ok, that worked!
Phoebe: - angry - How dare you speak like that?
Prue: Phoebs, let's focus on the creatures now, ok? Since an athame can kill them, they are probably weaklings!
Phoebe: So?
Prue: We have to change our powers!
Phoebe: No, if we do that, then we could mess up with the creatures powers!
Prue: Oh no…
Phoebe: Oh, they are getting up! So let's fight them!
Prue and Phoebe approach the creatures and start fighting! Prue kicks one creature in the stomach, forcing it to fly back and crash on the wall! Phoebe tackles another one, while the other two get up! Prue grabs the athame and throws it to the third one, but it shimmers out! Creature 4 manages to punch Phoebe in her face, causing her anger!
Phoebe: BASTARD!
Phoebe raises her arm trying obviously to just punch him, but her rising anger motivates Prue's telekinesis and the creature goes back flying and landing hard on the floor!
Phoebe: Wow, that was cool!
Prue: Ok, where did the other one go?
Phoebe: Let's finish them!
Phoebe picks up an athame too, and dashes for the creatures! Without even realizing, creature 3 shimmers behind Prue and stabs her in the back! Prue screams in pain and Phoebe turns around only to see the creature trying to steal her powers with the stabbed at her back athame!
Phoebe: Prue, no!
Phoebe waves her arm angry and creature 3 goes back! Prue falls in the ground, bleeding! Phoebe throws the athame to creature 3 and it gets it! Creature 3 screams and flames to death!
Phoebe: Two down! Ok. LEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!LEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!
The other three creatures wake up and Phoebe stands in front of them, raising her arm.
Phoebe: Do you still think we are vulnerable?
Leo orbs in, and sees the creatures and Prue bleeding on the floor!
Leo: - hell worried – Phoebe, what's going on?
Phoebe: Stay back Leo.
The creatures look at her scared. Phoebe moves an athame to her hand and looks at them with a threatening way.
Phoebe: So what's gonna be? Are you ready to die?
The creatures reconsider, and shimmer out, causing the alarm to go off! Phoebe relaxes from the anger state and turns around, only to see Leo healing Prue. Leo is finished and Prue opens her eyes.
Prue: Phoebe, Phoebe!
Phoebe: It's alright Prue; I sent them away!
Leo: What? You send them away? And how come and you have Prue's powers? What happened in here?
Prue gets up and both her and Phoebe look at Leo.
---
Leo: But how did the creatures know when to attack you?
Phoebe: Ouh, let me guess, The Source?
Prue: No I don't think so. He should have learned by now.
Phoebe: Then why creatures come against us?
Prue: I don't know – she says grabbing Phoebe's hand - Anyway, let's focus on our goal before they come back and… - she won't find time to finish her sentence, when she gets sucked in one of Phoebe's premonition! She sees Mary being attacked by a creepy dark haired grey woman dressed in white, killing her! The premonition takes place in about 1 minute later! Prue comes out of the premonition – Ouh…
Phoebe: - understanding – What, what did you see?
Prue: I saw one girl being attacked by a creepy woman!
Leo: Oh no, you have to save her!
Prue: Ok, Phoebe, you need to project to her, NOW!
Phoebe: What… me? Me? No, wait the reason we changed powers is -
Prue: We don't have time Phoebe! The girl will die!
Phoebe: But I can barely use your telekinesis, now you ask me to use your bodykinesis? Let's just change our powers back!
Prue: No Phoebe, we don't have time! Do it!
Phoebe: How?
Prue: Focus, imagine yourself being near her, next to her!
Leo: - anxious – Guys hurry up!
Phoebe: - concentrating – Ok…
Prue: Imagine yourself being right next to her Phoebe. Let your brain travel!
Phoebe closes her eyes concentrating, and then we hear the familiar sound effect! Phoebe projected! But since she doesn't know how to control her physical body while in project mode, she loses her balance, falling! Leo grabs her and gets her out of harms way!
Prue: Ok Phoebe, save that girl…
---
Phoebe projects in a girly teen room.
Phoebe: WOW! It worked!
Phoebe looks around to see where she is. But that won't be necessary! She hears the girl screaming! The screams are coming from the bathroom! Phoebe runs to it and violently opens the door, only to see Mary cornered by this creepy figure Prue saw! Mary is lost in pure terror and horror!
Phoebe: HEY! STOP IT!
The creepy woman turns around looking at Phoebe. It's like she is wondering how Phoebe is able to see her! Phoebe takes a fighting stance, warning her! The figure makes some croaking sounds, staring at Phoebe!
Phoebe: Stay away from her!
Mary: - crying – Who are you?
Phoebe won't find time to answer! The creepy figure, floating in the air, run towards her, and she exits the bathroom literally travelling through Phoebe's secondary body! Phoebe makes some steps back, feeling that evil energy right in her stomach. Tears start falling from her eyes. Mary looks at her terrified, not knowing how to react.
Mary: Who are you? What are you doing in here?
Phoebe stares at Mary. She can still feel the evil aura in her stomach.

Change Of scene. Phoebe is trying to calm Mary down.
Mary: - crying and terrified – WHO ARE YOU? WHAT ARE YOU DOING IN HERE?
Phoebe: Please come down! I'm not here to hurt you! I want to help you!
Mary: How did you get in here? Are you a thief?
Phoebe: NO, NO! I just… I'm a… -
Mary: What? And how could you see Her? I thought only I was able to see Her creepy figure and hear Her disturbing noises!
Phoebe: Ok, who is Her? Who is she?
Mary: - crying - Have you been in the house? She's gonna come for you!
Phoebe: - realizing – The house? Yeah I've been to the house but I did not enter it, I just… Never mind, I just know that you were inside there and something attacked you.
Mary: How do you know this?
Phoebe is about to answer, but she feels the desperate need to project out. She tries to hold herself, but she can't longer be in project mode! She realizes that Mary will see her projecting out, so she tries to outsmart her!
Phoebe: Oh my god Mary, she is right Behind you!
Mary, terrified, turns around to see her! Phoebe finds the opportunity to project out, without being seen by Mary! Mary sees nothing and turns to Phoebe again, only to see she's gone!
Mary: - to herself – What…

Phoebe returns to her original body, opening her eyes, only to catch a glimpse of Prue and Leo standing over her, seeing if she is ok. Then she immediately faints, exhausted by Prue's second power!
Prue: Hm, kind of logical…
Leo: Is she going to be ok?
Prue: Yeah, she's just in shock. Being in projecting mode can tire your brain so much.
Leo: Ok, change back your power in case these creatures come back.
Prue stands over the BOS, ready to chant.
---
Piper exits the club along with the young man who came for interview.
Piper: Ok, so you start tonight.
Richard: Thank you so much, Ms Halliwell. I so needed this job. And the pay check is also very generous!
Piper: And if you do a good job, you will get more!
Richard: Thank you – he says leaving –
Piper is relieved. She has a really good feeling about that young 22 years old boy. She heads for her parked car.
---
A chair is being moved back. The camera moves straight to Prue only to see her with her arm outstretched. It's pretty clear that she has her powers back.
Prue: - looking at the ceiling – LEO! IT'S ALRIGHT, YOU CAN ORB IN NOW!
Leo orbs in.
Leo: Explain to me again why you needed me to get out of here.
Prue: Because the spell will work exchanging the powers from everyone in the manor. Including you. Remember 3 and a half years ago?
Leo: Yeah, yeah…
Prue: Ok, you sit here and take care of Phoebe. Now that I know how this girl looks like, I am going to project to her and have a chat with her.
Leo: Wait, what if the demons come back?
Prue: Then orb her out of here.
Leo: You know I am not allowed to orb you guys here and there! There are strict rules for orbing!
Prue: Ok, then go get Piper, since you can orb her, and tell her to protect her.
Leo: But…
Prue: Listen Leo. That creepy woman really wanted to get that girl. She can be attacking her right now, as we are speaking! I have to go and save her!
Leo: - understanding - Ok, go.
Prue sits in a couch and projects.
---
Prue projects in Mary's room, only to see her lying on her bed, crawling and crying.
Prue: Hey…
Mary: - scared- Who are you??? How did you get in here???
Prue: Come down, ok. I am Prue. I am here to help you.
Mary: How did you get in here? Another woman got in here too, 5 minutes ago. The doors are locked!
Prue: Ok, you have got to calm down. I am going to explain you everything. Just let me talk, ok?
Mary looks at her. The girl is pretty scared.
Prue: I think that an evil is after you. It's trying to kill you. I don't know WHY, or WHO she is, but I do know that you have to come with me, otherwise she is going to attack you, again. And you are going to be alone.
Mary won't speak. She just looks at Prue.
Prue: Ok sweety? Come on, get up. We have to leave.
Mary: And why would you want to help me?
Prue: Because it's my job to protect the innocent. So, please, follow me.
Mary: - hesitating at the beginning – Ok…
Prue: Let's call a cub.
---
Phoebe opens her eyes only to see Leo standing over her. She has a terrible headache.
Phoebe: Aaaaaaaaaaaaah…
Leo: Phoebe are you ok?
Phoebe: Wow. This projection power really makes your brain tire!
Leo: So, is the girl ok?
Phoebe: Yeah, she is fine. She was very scared. But I sent this bitch away.
Leo: Did she put up that much of a fight?
Phoebe: Strangely, not. And it's not like she tried to fight. She saw me and then she practically flew through me, abandoning the area!
Leo: A demon went through you?
Phoebe: See that's the point. I don't think she is a demon. More likely an evil spirit.
Leo: An evil spirit killing persons?
Phoebe: Yeah it wouldn't be the first time that happens Leo. Ouch – she says rubbing her forehead –
Leo: Are you ok? You want me to heal you?
Phoebe: No, there is nothing to heal Leo. – funny - I now understand why Prue sometimes has so many nerves, that she can't control. Besides the PMS nerves and her not having sex. It must be because of her powers! They cause her terrible headaches!
Leo: - smirking – Phoebe…
Phoebe: Whaaaaaat? It's the truth! It's like your brain is somewhere else. Your consciousness is away from your physical body!
Leo: Ok Phoebe focus. The Book!
Phoebe: Oh, yeah…
---
Piper enters the manor.
Piper: Hello, is anybody here?
---
Leo: Oh it's Piper.
Phoebe: You go Leo. I will go on with the search here.
But Leo won't find time to exit the attic. Piper enters.
Piper: Oh hey honeyyyyyyyyyyy – she says hugging him –
Leo: - smiling - You look happy…
Piper: Yeah well, I hired a new bar tender.
Leo: Really? I'm so happy for you. – he says kissing her –
Phoebe:… AND WE HIRED A NEW EVIL!
Piper: - aiming her eyes at Phoebe while kissing Leo, with a funny way, interrupting the kiss – What happened?
Phoebe: Well, a creepy woman like evil attacked a young girl. I projected and I saved her.
Piper: Wait, you… You projected? How?
Phoebe: - realizing – Ohhhhh… Yeaaaaaaaah… wrong person. Leo explain her.
---
Prue and Mary are in the cub. The cub is parking outside the manor.
Prue: How much do I owe you mister?
Driver: 20 box.
Prue is checking her pocket, only to realize that she has no money with her.
Prue: Oh…
Mary: Don't worry, I have some. Here you go sir.
Both Prue and Mary exit the cub, standing in front of the manor.
Prue: Ok, now you have got to listen to me. Until we find out what…
Mary: 'We'? Who are 'we'? Who are you?
Prue: I am a witch.
Mary: - surprised – What?
Prue: I am a magical being and I have magical powers. It's my job to protect you.
Mary: - ironically – Yeah…
---
Piper: So what, you changed powers?
Phoebe: Yeah, I've got to tell you, Prue's powers lead her to a terrible headache every time she uses them!
Piper: How do you figure?
Phoebe: Trust me, I know what I am saying!
Piper: Ok… So, did you find anything about this creepy thingy? Or about the creatures that attacked you?
Phoebe: I found about the creatures, yes. But not about the creepy one.
Piper: What does it say?
Suddenly the three creatures shimmer in!
Creature 2: It says that you are going to die!
Creature 2, Creature 4 and Creature 5 are still alive and kicking! The alarm goes on!
---
Prue is standing next to Mary talking to her just outside the door, when she hears the alarm!
Prue: Oh no!
Mary: What's going on?
Prue: Brb! Just get in the house!
Prue projects out in front of Mary, leaving her with an open mouth!
---
Piper panicky outstretches hear arms freezing the creatures!
Piper: OUH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Phoebe: OK PIPER, BLOW THEM UP! THEY ARE WEAKLINGS!
Suddenly Sec. Prue projects in!
Piper: Prue?
Sec. Prue: - seeing the scene – What's going on?
Phoebe: The creatures are back!
Sec. Prue: Ok Piper, blow them up!
Piper panicky outstretches her arms and blows up creature 4! With Turkin style(from exit strategy), the creature blows away! The other two demons unfreeze, and creature 2 throws an athame to Piper! Piper panicky freezes the athame in front of her! Sec. Prue gets angry and flies into Creature 2 ( with vinceres style)! Creature 2 screams in pain and with the same reaction and effect, blows up! appears! Creature 5 realizes that the game it's over. Piper tries to blow it up, but it shimmers out just in time, consulting a lamp blowing away!
Piper: Ouh! Not a lamp again!
Phoebe: What, now you have developed a lamp/slash dome lamp complex?
Piper: - with a funny panicky way – Ha!
Sec. Prue projects out, returning to her original physical body!
Prue: Wow…
Phoebe: Yeah, I know, so much time in projecting mode, headaches!
Prue: Ha?
Phoebe: The next thing we need to do now is change bodies! That would be awesome!
Piper: Ok girls, did you forget that creatures just shimmered in the attic 1 minute ago?
Phoebe: Yeah, they are just dollies.
Piper: Dollies?
Phoebe: Yeah lower level evil bodies which are used like dolls, like pones from advanced level evils.
Prue: So they were not real?
Phoebe: Oh no, they were real. They are just indirectly controlled by others.
Piper: So a stronger evil is behind them?
Phoebe: Precisely!
Piper: Great. Just great.
Prue: Another great thing is that lower level evil will go away with just projecting inside it and making it feel the tiring and the nerves of a long working day.
Phoebe: Yeah, so when you have PMS, you get an extra power boost!
Piper: Phoebe!!
Suddenly, something interrupts them.
Voice: Hello, is anybody here?
Prue: - realizing – Oh my god, Mary!
Phoebe: Mary, what, she's here?
Prue: Yeah, I thought that bringing her here would be the best way to protect her.
Piper: Oh ok. She must be scared. – she says exiting the attic –
Prue: I told her that we are witches!
Piper, Phoebe: WHAT??????
Prue: I had no choice. She wouldn't understand why I kept saying to her that we are supposed to protect her.
Phoebe: Fine.
Prue: Where is Leo?
Phoebe: He orbed to The Elders as soon as Piper arrived.
---
Piper: Hey.
Mary: Hey…
Piper: Are you ok? Just relax. You want a tea or something?
Mary: No, I just want to know what's that thing that's after me. And what you guys are!
Piper: Amm… Didn't Prue tell you?
Mary: That you are witches? You want me to believe that you are witches? On the other side, what I saw just a few minutes ago… How did she do it? Is she a magician or something?
Piper: No, she is a witch, and she has active powers… We all do, actually.
Mary: - pausing for a second – You are actually serious?
Piper: Yeah, you want me to show to you?
Mary won't respond, but her eyes say it all. Piper takes a vase from the next table and throws it in the air. Then she extends her arm freezing it! Mary sees it, and after losing herself in confuse, she turns backwards fainting.
End of scene.

Change of scene. Phoebe's bedroom.
Phoebe: But how could you tell her that you have powers with such a clumsy way???
Piper: Oh come on, are you going to talk about manners? Did you forget the shop lifting experience, or we are not talking about the same Freebie here?
Phoebe: I'll pretend I didn't hear the last line.
Prue: Girls, you have got to relax. We have an innocent here, and she is our first priority.
Phoebe: Ok, so what do we do?
Piper: You said you didn't find anything in the BOS about creepy houses?
Phoebe: No, but about cursed houses, yes I have. But has nothing to do with that creepy grey woman.
Prue: Damn it. We must go back to this house.
Phoebe: No, I don't think that's a smart move.
Prue: Why?
Phoebe: Because grams visited me in my full premonition and ordered me not to enter, do you really believe that going against her is smart?
Piper: Ha?
Prue: Yes, but if we don't do something, this creepy bitch will come back for her. And…
Suddenly Prue pauses. It's like she almost realized something. Piper grabs the vibe.
Piper: What?
Prue: Oh my god…
Piper: What????????
Prue: Phoebe, you said you saw other two girls too, right?
Phoebe: Yes, they were with her when this woman attacked them.
Prue: How do we know that she won't go against them too? How do we know that they are not in danger too?
Phoebe: Oh oh…
Piper: Oh no!
Prue: We have got to find them! And bring them here! Phoebe –
Phoebe: No Prue, we are not doing it again, these dollies can come back.
Prue: Piper can take care of them. Can't you sweetie?
Piper: Yes, sure, of course!
Phoebe: No, I still don't believe that changing our powers will lead us to good. We will just wake Mary up, and ask her where the other 2 girls stay.
Piper is indecisive, but Prue hasn't still changed her mind.
Phoebe: It is the only way. Trust me.
Phoebe turns and wakes Mary up.
Phoebe: - honey pied – Come on sweetie, wake up.
Mary nods and reacts. She opens her eyes only to see Phoebe's face standing over her.
Mary: Where are am I? – realizing – YOU? HERE?
Phoebe: - childish - Oh yeah, we've met before, haven't we?
Mary: What's going on?
Piper: It's ok sweetie. Relax. We understand that it must be huge for you, but… -
Mary: - interrupting her – I want to go home.
Prue: No, you won't. Like it or not, there is an evil haunting you, and until we find out what it is, we can't let you leave.
Mary: But you can't keep me here without my will!
Prue: Ok, do you prefer to leave and die?
Mary: - scared – Ha?
Phoebe: Prue, a little discreet here, will you??????
Prue: When innocent lives are on stake, I can't be discreet Phoebe.
Piper: - trying to calm things down – Look, honey, you have got to call your two friends and tell them to come here too. We believe that they are in danger too.
Mary: There are not my friends! They are responsible for all this!
Phoebe: How do you figure?
Mary: It was their idea to enter this damned house in the first place! Everything started after we decided to mess with this creepy house!
Piper: Phoebe, maybe you should check again about creepy houses.
Phoebe: No Piper, I already told you that I couldn't find anything!
Prue: It's not just the house. It's about this thing that lives in there. Ok, as soon as we bring the other girls here too, we can continue the search.
Phoebe: Mary, please call them.
Mary: I don't know their phone numbers!
Phoebe: Crap!
Mary: But I do know where Louisa stays. I don't know the way over there, though.
Phoebe: Ok, just tell us the street.
Mary: Orfanidis street, number 22.
Piper: Wait, isn't this down town?
Prue: Yes, I know where it is! We used to do some photo shoot there!
Phoebe: Ok Prue, you project there and find her! – to Mary – What's her last name?
Mary: Smith… Louisa Smith!
Prue won't answer. She sits in a chair, projecting!
---
Sec. Prue appears in a square, in a real dark spot, under a tree. She checks the area to find the street. Orfanidis street! There it is! Sec. Prue also finds the number. It's a nice house, with a beautiful green garden! Sec. Prue moves a little bit more to the door, when she hears some screams! Sec. Prue realizes that the screams come from the house! She projects out and projects in the house, only to see Louisa cornered by this grey monster woman. Her face is coloured with pure terror. Tears of desperation and agony are running all over her cheeks, as the grey woman approaches her, outstretching her arms, trying obviously to grab her head!
Sec. Prue: Hey! Stop it!
The grey woman turns her head at S. Prue, with the same surprise she had when she realized that Phoebe could see her.
Louisa: - crying – Who are you?
S. Prue decides to attack the grey woman. She squirts her eyes trying to move her, but it doesn't work!
---
Back at the manor, Prue's real body is struggling.
Mary: What's wrong with her?
Phoebe: Wish I knew!
Piper: Prue????
---
The grey woman stares threatening at Sec. Prue. S. Prue tries to move with her hand a lamp to her, but it won't work!
Sec. Prue: Damn it!
The grey woman turns again at Louisa, determined not to retreat, but to finish the job this time!
S. Prue: NO!
Sec. Prue dashes for her, trying to kick her! Her leg goes through her body, without even hurting her! This is time when Sec. Prue realizes that this woman is just a spirit! An evil spirit! The grey woman gets angry, croaking even more! She attacks Sec. Prue, trying to possess her body! But since Sec. Prue is just a fake version of Prue's real body, the grey woman just flies through Sec. Prue! Sec. Prue turns around, not knowing what to do! So does the grey woman!
Sec. Prue: - to Louisa – Get out of here, NOW!
Louisa, lost in her terror, just obeys Sec. Prue's orders and runs for the exit door! The grew woman gets really angry and attacks her for one more time, but Sec. Prue decides to intervene, and this time for real!
Sec. Prue: Evil Spirit, hear my confession, I banish you, in another dimension! – to herself – Ok, what was that??????
The grey woman tries to attack Louisa, but after Sec. Prue's little rhyme she reacts a little bad! In a shower of purple, orange, grey and pink little lights she blows away! Sec. Prue relaxes realizing that she sent her away. She turns around only to see Louisa, fainted, on the floor.
End Of scene.

Change Of scene. Halliwell Manor. Piper and Phoebe are anxiously waiting for Prue to return from her little brain travels! Mary tries to relax, drinking some tea. All of them hear the door closing.
Phoebe: Is she…
Piper: Who else!
Sec. Prue and Louisa enter the manor. Louisa is like a living dead after everything she experienced.
Sec. Prue: Just sit here, ok sweety? I'll be right back.
Louisa; - faintly – Ok…
Sec. Prue leaves the room, and without being seeing from Louisa, she projects out. Piper, Phoebe and Mary walk down the stairs just after her projecting out. They enter the living room, only to see Louisa scared.
Phoebe: Hey sweety.
Louisa: Hey…
Mary: Did she come after you, too?
Louisa: Mary! - crying – Yeah… Who is she?
Piper: We are trying to figure a way around. You are safe here, don't worry.
Phoebe: So where is Prue?
Louisa: Well she…
Prue enters the conversation.
Prue: I'm over here.
Phoebe: Playing projecting games, ha?
Piper: Yeah Prue, and you've been holding on for a while you know.
Prue: Must be part of my powers growing.
Louisa: Hello, hi! I am here too, you know! What was that thing? And who are you?
Prue: Here we go again…
Mary decides to make the situation easier for the girls.
Mary: They are just people who want to help us. Good people.
Louisa: Protect us from what???
Mary: From this woman. They have powers, you know.
Louisa: Ha?
Piper: Eaaaaaasy with the information…
Phoebe: So, what are going to do?
Prue: We need to find out about this woman. Oh, and guess what. She is a spirit.
Piper: How do you figure?
Prue: I tried to kick her, and I couldn't. My leg went through her body.
Phoebe: So that's how she was able to travel through me! She is a spirit, after all!
Piper: So, can we use the same spell you and Prue used 2 years ago to banish a spirit?
Phoebe: Probably. But let's not forget it's pretty dangerous to use it. You have to die!
Prue: As long as we have each other, we have nothing to fear.
Piper: I or Phoebe should do it.
Prue: No, I am going to do it. I am not going to let you get hurt!
Piper: No Prue, if something happens to us, you can just use the Sand Ring to bring us back. If you, god forbid, die, then…
Phoebe: Yeah Prue she is right.
Prue remains sceptical.
Prue: Ok, you are right.
Piper: But how are we going to find her?
Mary decides to intervene.
Mary: We will just use Helena as bait.
Piper: Helena?
Mary: Yeah, the other girl that along with Louisa – she says looking angry at a scared Louisa – took me to that creepy house.
Phoebe: So there is another one?
Mary: And my guess is that she is going to attack her too!
Prue: Ok, we have got to bring her here too!
Mary: - to Louisa - Louisa, you have to call Helena. Tell her to come here!
Louisa: - scared – Ok.
Phoebe hands Louisa over the phone. Louisa starts dialling and then turns to the sisters.
Phoebe: So Piper, who should do it?
Piper: I'll do it.
Prue: No, Phoebe will drink the cocktail.
Phoebe: Eager to kill me, ha?
Prue: Phoebe, for crying out loud. We need Piper to put the freeze on. The spirit may freeze. It will be easier for you to fight her.
Piper: Yeah, she is right.
Phoebe: Ok then. Piper, go exercise your cooking skills.
Piper: I guess my date with Leo is over.
Phoebe: What? You still date????
Piper: It was just a romantic idea of his. You know, thinking the possibility of doing a baby, and…
Prue: Ok, honey – she says stroking Piper's head – We'll talk about it later. Innocents come first.
Louisa turns the phone off.
Louisa: She is on her way here!
End Of scene

Change Of scene. Cut to the attic. Helena is there, alone, waiting. She walks nervously here and there. Suddenly, some annoying noise can be heard. Helena stops her movement, scared. The sounds become more clear: they are croaking! Helena's face loses its colour. She turns around only to see this dark figure coming over her!
Helena: HEEEEEEEEEEELP!!!!!!!!!
The lights turn on, and Prue, Piper and Phoebe appear! The grey woman looks at them surprised!
Prue: Piper, now!
Piper outstretches her arms, trying to freeze her! But it won't work!
Piper: Oh oh! Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…. Prue?
Prue: Ok, try again! Phoebe, the cocktail! Drink it!
Phoebe won't lose time! She drinks the cocktail, and after a little shock, she falls down, dead! The grey woman, floating in the air, travel towards Piper! Piper, widening her eyes, tries to freeze her again, failing! The grey woman almost reaches her, and Piper loses it, just widening her eyes and opening her mouth! Prue decides to intervene pushing her out of harm's way! Together they fall to the ground! The grey woman turns around, only to see Phoebe's spirit rising from her body!
Phoebe: Wow…
She looks at her surprised, doing some croaking sounds! Phoebe decides to vanquish her sorry ass!
Phoebe: Ashes to ashes, spirit to spirit, take her soul, banish this evil!
The grey woman croaks in pain as the wave of Phoebe's undead spell make her shake in a sparkle of purple, orange, yellow and dark blue lights, leading her to her demise! She disappears(with the same way Libris did), without leaving any trace!
Phoebe: Oh, ok…
Her spirit starts floating.
Phoebe: Guys, a little help here!
Prue: Leo!
Leo orbs in.
Piper: Hurry, heal her!
Leo moves over Phoebe, outstretching his arms, healing her! Phoebe's soul was about to move and disappear in the astral plane, but Leo's healing brought her back! Phoebe opens her eyes, hurting!
Phoebe: Ouuuuuuuch…
Leo: Are you okay?
Phoebe: I think so…
Piper: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaah…
Leo: Honey?
Piper: I'm fine.
Prue: So, is she really gone?
Helena: You killed her?
Mary and Louisa also entered the attic.
Mary: Is she gone?
Prue: Probably…
Phoebe: She blew away, that's for sure.
Leo: Well you can't be sure for anything, after what I found out.
Prue: What's wrong Leo?
Leo: This grey woman is not just a spirit. She is angry. She likes killing people, people that just happen to enter THIS particular house.
Piper: And?
Leo: I discussed the whole situation with The Elders, and they claimed that this whole situation reminds them of a similar one they faced in the past.
Piper: So…
Leo: This woman is angry. It's like she is seeking revenge. It's like she is some sort of… Grudge.
Phoebe: Grudge????
Prue: Grudge… - she says opening the BOS and flipping its pages –
Mary decides to break the conversation.
Mary: So is she gone?
Phoebe: - smiling with a silly face – We'll tell you when we will know ourselves honey.
Helena: Can we go home now?
Prue: Not until we be sure that you are safe. This thing can still be out there alive, according to Leo.
Piper: Ok then, if you want to sleep, I can –
Luisa: I just want to go home! My parents will be hell worried!
Piper: Oh honey, can you just call them and give them an excuse?
Luisa: I could say I will sleep at Helena's…
Helena: Yeah so can I. I can tell them I will sleep at Luisa's.
Phoebe: Great! So do your little calling trick.
Piper: You can sleep in Phoebe's bedroom.
Phoebe: Mine? Why mine????
Piper: Because I'm a married woman. I have a husband and he needs to sleep in a comfortable bed.
Prue: Yeah Phoebs, despite the fact that you kick, you can sleep with me.
Phoebe: Fine!
Luisa: But three of us in one bed?
Prue: One of you will take the couch and two of you will take the bed.
Mary: I'll take the couch. You can share the bed.
Mary obviously hasn't forgiven Luisa and Helena for what they've done to her.
Piper: So, what do we do now?
Leo: I'll go check with The Elders again, see if they have found out something else.
Prue: I just found something.
Phoebe: - surprised – What?
Prue: Yeah it's a page with title: The Grudge
Piper and Phoebe move over the BOS too, and Leo stands opposite them.
The Grudge
When a violent death takes place and the victim hasn't found peace and justice for its unfair death, then a Grudge is created.
The spirit of the victim returns on earth angry and filled with hate, with only one purpose: to take revenge and keep spreading to all the unlucky people who dare to enter the place it died the message of its death.
It won't stop until it gets its victims.
No known way to stop it.
Watch out my beautiful daughter. Don't even try to enter the place The Grudge was created. Doom will come after you.
Written by Paula Warren
Prue: Oh my…
Phoebe: But we vanquished it.
Piper: Did we?
Prue: The spell to vanquish a spirit was written before this chapter in the BOS. It was written by Samantha Warren. And this chapter is written by Paula Warren.
Piper: Which means…
Prue: That she faced a Grudge like this one before, and she wasn't able to destroy it.
Piper: I'm starting to get a bad feeling about this…
Phoebe: Well she did not have the power of three! We have it! If I write a power of three vanquishing spell, we should be able to eliminate it!
Prue: That's good Phoebs, start writing.
Piper: What about the dollies?
Prue: Actually that's what I am going to do.
Piper: What do you mean?
Prue: I will project myself to the last dollies. Then we will see why they came after us.
Piper: Prue…
Prue: Don't worry, I'll be just fine. – she says smiling – You keep searching the BOS and take care of the girls.
Leo: I am out.
Prue smiles and takes a sit in a couch, projecting and Leo orbs out.
---
Cut to the creepy house. The same eerie silence emanates. Out of nowhere, a tiny mad wind appears and the creepy woman reconstitutes… ! She won't quit her croaking sounds…
---
The last dollie is running for its life, in a dark alley of the Underworld. Sec. Prue is running behind it!
Sec. Prue: You have nowhere to go, don't you understand it? I promise I won't kill you if you give me the information I want!
Dollie: I won't tell you anything, witch!
The dollie creates a special athame and throws it towards Sec. Prue, who projects out, leaving it flying in the air!
Dollie: What?
Sec. Prue appears appears behind it.
Sec. Prue: Hey!
The dollie turns around scared, only to see Sec. Prue kicking it with force! It flies away hitting on a rock, screaming! Sec. Prue stands over it, grabbing its neck.
Sec. Prue: Now please tell me who sent you, and I will let you go.
The dollie is about to spill the beans, when a black trigonal force violently hits its back, forcing it to explode! Sec. Prue is forced to move backwards, trying to avoid the ashes created by the Dollie's explosion, covering her face!
Voice: I knew you would go after it, so I decided to take care of it myself!
Sec. Prue raises her head only to see Zankou in front of her!
Sec. Prue: You!
Zankou: Well, wasn't it expected?
Sec. Prue: With so many of your kind wanting us dead, no, it wasn't!
Zankou: Actually you know, I wasn't trying to kill you.
Sec. Prue: Really?
Zankou: What? Demonic lower level evil dollies destroying the Charmed Ones?
Sec. Prue: So? Why did you send them after us.
Zankou: To study you. To see the way you fight.
Sec. Prue: You could just ask The Source. After all, we know you've been pals even before he imprisoned you… Oh, and by the way, how was life in prison?
Zankou: - wrathfully – BITCH!
He creates a black triangle and sends it towards Sec. Prue. She squirts her eyes trying obviously to defend herself, but it won't work! She still can't use telekinesis in projecting mode! Right before the black triangle hits her, she projects out! Zankou remains in trance. Sec. Prue appears behind him! She tries to use telekinesis and throw him away, but she fails! She even move her arms, but nothing happens!
---
Cut to the attic, where Piper is still checking the BOS. Prue's physical body is in stress mode and sweats. Piper won't realize it.
---
Zankou creates another black triangle, aiming Sec. Prue! Sec. Prue dashes for him! The black triangle flies in the air, but Sec. Prue projects out! The triangle flies away and Sec. Prue projects in again, continuing like she didn't even projected out! She hits Zankou hard and they both fall in the ground! Zankou wakes up and tries to attack again, but Sec. Prue grabs the opportunity and round kicks his legs! Zankou falls down in pain! Sec. Prue gets up and places her leg on his chest.
Sec. Prue: This is the first and the last time I'm telling this to you. If you ever come after me and my family again, we are gonna vanquish you. Are you listening to me?
Zankou: Well if you can vanquish me, why won't you do it now?
Sec. Prue doesn't answer.
Zankou: Maybe because you don't know how to do it?
Sec. Prue: Are you challenging us?
Zankou: No, I'm the one who is warning you! – he says pushing Sec. Prue back with an energy blast – Give me the Sea Globe and I will let you live!
Sec. Prue lands on the wall! She falls down hurting!
Sec. Prue: No, you listen to me. If you ever come after us again, then we will use our potion to vanquish upper level demons on you!
Zankou: Hehe… I'm not just an upper level demon. I'm something more!
Sec. Prue: Well it would be a good beginning to just hurt you. We'll see about full vanquish later – she say projecting out, leaving Zankou mad –
Zankou: Tough bitch – he says flaming out –
---
Prue opens her eyes. Piper is still opposite her, checking the BOS.
Prue: Hey…
Piper: Oh, welcome back! So…
Prue: - interrupting her – Zankou!
Piper: Of… course…
Prue: He wants the Sea Globe really bad.
Piper: And why did he send the dollies? He really thought that they would be able to –
Prue: No, he just wanted to see the way we fight!
Piper: He could just ask…
Prue: Piper!
Piper: What! At least we could have avoided all the mess!
Prue: Is Phoebe done with the power of three spell?
Piper: You are free to ask her! As for me, I didn't find anything else in the Book.
---
Cut to Phoebe's bedroom. Luisa and Helena are wearing old clothes from Phoebe's wardrobe. Mary keeps the same clothes on. Phoebe is sitting there trying to figure out the spell. Mary sits next to her on the couch.
Mary: So you think that this will help you get rid of her?
Phoebe: I hope so.
Luisa: Oh Phoebe, these clothes are really funny! Do you have anymore old ones?
Phoebe: Well no. And you can blame Piper for that. She blew them away a couple of months ago!
Helena: What?
Phoebe: Never mind!
Phoebe gets up.
Phoebe: I think this is pretty good. Ok girls, you go to sleep, we will keep an eye on you.
Mary: I don't think that I will be able to sleep Phoebe.
Phoebe: Then just try – she says smiling – And you two. Be good or I will punish you!
Phoebe exits her bedroom, while Luisa and Helena laugh.
---
Phoebe heads for the attic stairs only to see Prue standing in front of her!
Phoebe: Oh, welcome back.
Prue: Don't ask, Zankou.
Phoebe: - funny - How is my old buddy doing????
Prue: Excuse me?
Phoebe: - with a silly face – Never mind.
Prue: Well I don't know about his personal life. But I do know that he is eager to get a hold on the Sea Globe!
Phoebe: Well let him come for it.
Prue: Ha?
Phoebe: Well even if he does steal it, I will just call back for it.
Piper enters the conversation.
Piper: So what do we do now?
Prue: We wait…
The camera focus on the whole scene, including the three of them skeptical.

Change of scene. 3:00 am. Luisa and Helena sleep in Phoebe's bedroom. Mary is lying on the couch, but she can't sleep. A lot of things happened the past day. A lot of awful things, actually.
---
Phoebe and Prue share bed. Both of them sleep.
---
Piper and Leo sleep really calm. Piper is lost in Leo's hug, with a slight smile drawn on her face.
---
First floor corridor. The lights are turned off. The disturbing darkness is interrupted when a sharp light reveals a dark figure! The grey woman is back! Doing a bowing move with her head and moving like a bound clown, the grey woman decides to get the little witch that hurt her with this powerful spell. She moves towards Prue's bedroom, when she realizes a half opened door in her way, besides her right shoulder. The grey woman sees Piper sleeping! Her eyes wide open even more, doing some croacking sounds. She travels towards Piper, standing over her! Like an instinct, Piper opens her eyes, almost realizing that something is watching her! Piper is about to scream, but the grey woman jumps literally into her, possessing her! Piper struggles to wake up Leo, and despite the fact that the grey woman manages to take control of her body, she manages to punch Leo's chest, insulting his waking up!
Leo: Ouch! What…
Leo realizes that Piper is not right.
Leo: - worried - Piper, are you ok? What's wrong?
Piper won't listen. Being under the control of the grey woman, she gets up and starts exiting the room. Leo understands that something is wrong!
Leo: No, stop!
He says dashing for Piper, but Piper, being under the control of the evil spirit, turns around freezing him! Leo stands there, frozen, unable to help the love of his life, as she turns around and exits the manor!

Change of scene. Phoebe wakes up deciding to visit the bathroom. She gives a big yawn outstretching her body. She exits Prue's room heading for the bathroom, only to see Piper's bedroom door wide open! Phoebe begrudges.
Phoebe: That's strange – she says to herself – Piper won't forget to close the door. Phoebe decides to close the door, standing in front of it. But then she realizes through the darkness that Piper's bed is empty. She shoots her eyesight to the left of the room, only to see Leo frozen!
Phoebe: What? Leo?
Phoebe runs for Leo.
Phoebe: What's this?
Phoebe shakes Leo and he unfreezes!
Leo: - right after unfreezing – Piper, STOP!
Leo runs for a few meters, realizing that Piper is gone!
Leo: What?
Phoebe: Leo, you were frozen!
Leo: No, no!
Phoebe: What happened?
Leo: Piper, something is wrong with her!
Phoebe: Why did she freeze you?
Leo: She didn't do it volunteraly. It wasn't Piper.
Phoebe: Then who was it?
Leo won't speak, but his face says it all.
Phoebe: No… PRUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!

Outside the dark creepy house. It's dark. Prue projects in! One second later, Leo orbs in too.
Sec. Prue: Why didn't you bring Phoebe too? We may need the power of three!
Leo: I am not allowed to orb you guys here and there, don't you understand? The Elders warned me. If I keep doing this I risk exposing myself, not to mention the whole whitelighter world! I am only allowed to orb up there. And only Piper but not for Charmed duties, so…
Sec. Prue: Ok, I don't wanna hear anymore of these stupid Elder rules. Piper needs our help! Now!
Sec. Prue kicks the front door forcing it to wide open! She walks down the front yard and kicks the house door too. The moment she enters this creepy house she gets an eerie feeling. Something is wrong.
Sec. Prue: PIPER, WHERE ARE YOU?
She won't get an answer. Leo is about to enter the manor too, but Sec. Prue stops him.
Sec. Prue: No, we don't want her to come after you too.
Leo: What can she do, Prue? I'm already dead!
Sec. Prue: Good point – she says letting Leo enter the house – Ok we separate. You get the ground floor, I'll try the first floor.
Leo and Prue separate. Leo enters the kitchen.
Leo: Oh my…
The picture is disturbing and causes Leo to make some steps backwards.
Leo: What happened in here?
---
Sec. Prue has already reached the 1st floor. She checks the room around her, focusing on the bedroom door. Sec. Prue walks carefully towards it. The dark is pitch and she can't see what lies on the bedroom bed even from the door. She carefully stands over the bed and watches more clear. Piper!
Sec. Prue: - whispering – No… - shouting – LEO!

Change Of scene.
Halliwell Manor. Phoebe is anxiously waiting over a trance Prue for Leo and her to return. Leo orbs in with Piper in his arms and the familiar projecting sound make us realize that Prue has returned too!
Phoebe: Oh my god, Piper! What happened?
Leo: She was in this creepy house, like you suggested Phoebe.
Prue: Leo heal her.
Leo gently places Piper on the couch and tries the healing process.
Leo: There is nothing to heal. She is fine, physically anyway.
Phoebe: For now, but since she entered the manor…
Prue: We will fend her off. With the power of three. You work on a power of three vanquishing spell, just in case our defensive incantation won't send her away enough.
Phoebe: Already finished with this one.
Prue: Great job.
Leo: - standing over Piper – She won't wake up. She is in shock.
Phoebe: God knows what that monster made her go through.
Prue: She will pay for this. I will become a grudge of my own, it necessary.
Phoebe: Oh Prue Prue, come down. We don't you to wake your telekinetic powers, it will increase your headaches.
This causes a little smile on Prue's face.
Prue: So what do we do now?
Phoebe: We still wait.
Prue: No we did that before and look what happened. She came after us.
Phoebe: Well she won't dare to come against us again. She knows that we are expecting her.
Leo: It doesn't seem like she is afraid of you guys.
Prue pauses for a minute.
Phoebe: what?
Prue: One thing I don't understand is how was she able to possess Piper. She doesn't have that kind of ability, the Book won't mention it.
Phoebe: Well maybe our ancestor did not know about this ability of hers.
Prue: I don't think so. She tried to defeat that monster, she studied it. Don't you think she would have found out that this monster has this ability?
Phoebe: So, what does that mean?
Prue: I don't know, but I have a really bad feeling. Leo, please, do your Elder thing, ok?
Leo: - after stroking Piper's head – I'm out.
Leo orbs out, leaving Prue and Phoebe looking each other concerned.
Phoebe: What do we do now?
Prue: I'll go check the book and try to find a way to lure her here. Since that this bitch has the ability to possess people, who knows what kind of damage can she inflict. We need to lure her here and finish her.
Phoebe: And what if the vanquishing spell won't work?
Prue: We will repeat the last spell and just send her away, for one more time. Then we will see.
Phoebe agrees and stays besides Piper. Prue heads for the attic.
Prue: Be right back.
The girls won't realize that they are being watched…
---
Prue enters the attic and heads for the book.
---
Phoebe stands over Piper stroking her head.
Phoebe: You are going to be ok sweety. We will vanquish her sorry ass the best charmed way we know.
Croaking sounds originate behind Phoebe. Phoebe's smile is lost when she realizes them. She sets her eyes on the horizon, understanding that something is behind her.
---
Prue searches the Book, when she hears something smashing!
Prue: - questioning – Phoebe?????????
Prue runs for Phoebe!
---
Phoebe lies down on the ground, hurt. The familiar wardrobe in the hall is broken, obviously by Phoebe's kick. The grey woman stands in front of her, cracking.
Phoebe: Stay away from me, bitch!
The grudge won't listen to her. She walks towards her, jumping literally into her body, possessing her! Phoebe tries to fight her off, vainly! Prue appears in the staircase peak.
Prue: Phoebe, what happened? Are you ok?
Phoebe won't answer. She just turns around, her eyes filled with pitch black.
Prue: Phoebe! No…
Phoebe gets up and heads for the door, but Prue won't let her. She furiously waves her arm sending her back! Phoebe lands on a couch, emotionless. Prue descends the stairs, standing over her little sister.
Prue: - threatening – Get the hell out of my sister! Now!
Phoebe won't raise her head, she still has her eyes set on the ground.
Prue: I said now! Or else…
Phoebe: - with a spooky robotized voice – Or else what?
Prue: What?
Phoebe: What are you going to do? Kill this body? Kill your own sister?
Prue won't answer.
Phoebe: Unless you have a way to cast me out of here, then step aside, or you will get hurt.
Prue: - not knowing what to do – Phoebe, can you listen to me? You are stronger than her. You have got to fight her.
Phoebe: It's no use. I own her body now. She's mine.
Prue: Phoebe listen to me. Be strong. Fight her. Don't let her win.
Phoebe: Shut up… You can't stop me… Nobody can!
She says levitating in the air, to Prue's surprise, and kicking her really hard in the chest! Prue flies backwards and lands hard on the floor, fainting! Phoebe, with an evil smile colored all over her face, gets up and heads for the exit door.

Change of scene. Cut to the grey creepy house. Phoebe's body, being possessed by The Evil Grudge, stands in front of it.
Phoebe: - with the same awful robotized voice – Now it's time for you to follow me into my Grudge. It's time for you to feel my wrath. It's your turn to pay!
Phoebe walks into the house. Without being expected, Phoebe pauses during all the way there.
Phoebe: - to herself, the real Phoebe – No, I won't let you do this to me. You won't win me!
Phoebe: - robotized Grudge – You have no choice Phoebe. The more I stay into your body the more I possess it. A few minutes later victory will be mine!
Phoebe tries to walk back, fighting into her own body! The exchanging pain screams of the original Phoebe and the Grudge scares us too. Suddenly, Phoebe gets sucked into one of her Full premonitions!
Full Premonition
Inside the wrecked house
The colors are in gray scale. A young woman is standing besides the bedroom, cleaning the bed table. Suddenly a middle age man appears in front of the door. The woman turns around to see him, smiling. But the smile faints away when she realizes that the man is pissed off. The man raises his arm and shows to the woman a book that was hidden from us till now. The woman's eyes wide open, out of fear. She realizes that her husband found out her big secret. She is begging for his mercy. The man won't listen. He grabs her from her hair and pushes her on the floor. The woman screams in pain, crying! The man is trying to hit her again, but the woman raises her leg and kicks his balls! The man screams in pain and retreats, leaving the area free for her to walk free! She tries to run, but without being careful, she stumbles for a while and she sprain her ankle! She screams loud and falls down, with the up half body hitting in the hallway and the down half still lying in the room. The man recovers from the hit, furious, and clenches his teeth. Even more rage is building inside him. The woman is trying to crawl down the hallway, but the man grabs her head and with his other hand her jaw bone, and 3 seconds later, he finishes what we all knew he wanted to finish. The young woman, with the broken neck, tries to breath, with her eyes wide open, feeling her soul breathing away, vainly. The camera focuses on her eyes, and with a flash we go straight to Phoebe's eyes!
End of Full premonition.
Phoebe: Oh my god, what happened to you?
Phoebe: - robotized – You are about to feel it too, a few hours later. You are lucky, you saw the way I am going to kill you, and all the other fools who dared to enter my house!
Phoebe: - crying – No…
Phoebe can't resist anymore. Being under the possession of the evil spirit, she walks towards the front door, entering the house.

Change of scene. Cut to the Manor. Prue is lying unconscious on the floor. Leo orbs in.
Leo: Prue! Oh my god!
Leo stands over her, triggering the healing process. Prue opens her eyes.
Prue: Oh... Phoebe!
Leo: She is not here Prue.
Prue: Damn it...
Leo: What happened?
Prue: She got to her too. That evil bitch got to Phoebe too.
Leo: No. This is the worst thing that could happen.
Prue: Why? What did you find out?
Leo: The power of three is definitely required to get rid of her. But the thing is that when a victim has been in her Grudge, then no magic of his works on her.
Prue: Meaning?
Leo: Meaning that Piper and Phoebe have been in the house, so even if you cast the spell that won't work. Only your rhyme will work.
Prue: This couldn't get any worse, couldn't it?
Leo: I was hoping that at least 2 witches would be enough for her, you and Phoebe, since Piper had already been in her Grudge. But now...
Prue: So there is no way to change this? There is no way to restore the power of three towards her?
Leo: The only way to get rid of her Grudge is to die. Like it was the only way for Phoebe to get rid of The Source's pact.
Prue: Oh...
Prue is thinking, and Leo is already in her thoughts.
Leo: No Prue, it's way too dangerous.
Prue: It is the only way. Phoebe wrote already a spell to vanquish her. But without the power of three she will get me too and then we will lose our last chance.
Leo: So what, are you going to kill Piper and Phoebe and then bring them back?
Prue: Yes, that was my plan. Using the Sand Ring. You will be right here over them ready to heal them.
Leo: What if something happens and I can't heal them?
Prue: Then I will return them back, again.
Leo: What about the girls?
Prue: Obviously they will be free of The Grudge when we vanquish her sorry ass.
Leo: Ok, but we need to...
Prue: No need to break other whitelighter stupid rules. - takes a deep breath – Power of the sisters rise, course unseen across the skies, bring me back the one who is to me near, bring here my sister Phoebe dear!
White lights appear and Phoebe appears fainted. At the same time Piper wakes up.
Piper: What... What happened? Phoebe!
Piper looks at Prue and Leo, realizing that something is seriously wrong.

Change Of Scene. Cut to the attic. Piper offers Phoebe a glass of water and sits besides her, comforting her.
Piper: It's ok sweetie. Take a deep breath.
Phoebe: No, it's not – she says breathing hard – I saw what happened to her Piper. Her husband killed her with the most brutal way ever. She couldn't breath, she couldn't... -
Prue: Ok Phoebs, it must be pretty awful. But don't forget that this bitch goes around and kills innocent people. We all feel sorry for her but this doesn't change the fact that she left back a spirit – murderer.
Phoebe: I know, and I agree with you, but I was wondering if we could anything else to save her... She is in pain and -
Leo: There is nothing you can do - , he says entering the attic – Prue's plan is the only way to save the day. If she gets to her too, then everything is lost.
Piper: So we won't be able to stop her with any way? Not even with the power of three?
Leo: No.
Prue: I could still bring back Piper and Phoebe, but if the whole power of three is necessary, then the game is still lost.
Piper: So we stick to the plan. And we do it fast, right?
Prue: Yes.
Phoebe seems indecisive, but then she understands that this is the only way to stop the madness.
Phoebe: Ok, so what do we do?
Prue turns around and sets her eyes on two little potions lying on the table. They are the same Phoebe drank some hours ago in order to kill The Grudge.
Piper and Phoebe look at each other, scared.
End Of Scene.

Change Of Scene. The Grudge appears out of nowhere, with an endless croak. She moves into the attic, trying to find Prue, obviously. Prue stands in front of the huge windows. The grey morning light behind her scares us too. The Grudge stares at her. It's like she is wondering why Prue is not scared. She decides to move even forward and get Prue, but then Prue projects out, leaving The Grudge with open mouth, wondering where Prue went! Suddenly, the lights turn on and the girls enter the attic running, chanting at the same time:
Prue, Piper, Phoebe: Evil spirit let go of you pain, everything you do is just vain, release your soul from this anger, find peace in the life after!
The Grudge furiously is trying to attack them, but in the middle in the way the rhyming stops her, like in freezing state. The Grudge screams really loud and through an - really now you are vanquished – effect she disappears!
Piper: Ok...
Phoebe: Is she gone?
Prue: I really think that this time it worked. She really got her lesson.
Mary, Luisa and Helena enter the attic too.
Mary: So, is she gone?
Piper: Yeah, we think this time she is really gone.
Helena: So you kicked her sorry ass?
Phoebe: - feeling sad at the same time – No, we just... We just helped her to escape her pain.
Luisa: Pain? What pain?
Piper: - looking at Phoebe awkwardly – Forget it. It's time for you to go home girls.
Helena: Ouh, the kids won't believe us! But we could earn so much with this incredible story!
Phoebe: Wow!
Piper puts the freeze on. Luisa and Helena freeze, but not Mary.
Mary: What... Why did you do that?
Prue: Because we trust you Mary. We know that you will respect our secret and won't tell anyone about us Halliwell sisters. But these two...
Phoebe: Remind me of someone else in their age... - she says smiling stupid -
Piper: Am, who exactly?
Prue: - understanding – It doesn't matter. All you need to know is that you will remember everything and if something goes wrong, you can still come back to us for guidance.
Mary: Ok – feeling proud for the infamous Charmed Ones' trust -
Piper: Leo!
Leo orbs in.
Leo: Did you get her?
Piper: Yeah, she moved on.
Prue: And we need you to help the girls go on.
Leo turns around and sees the frozen girls, understanding. A nice slow music showing the girls smiling satisfied and Leo walking towards the frozen girls is playing in the background, as the camera moves away out of the attic and focusing on the sunset.

Change Of Scene. Prue is over the BOS, writing a spell in a little notepad. Piper enters the attic with some tea.
Prue: Did Mary leave?
Piper: Yeah, she did.
Prue: I hope we did the right thing trusting her.
Piper: Yeah I think so too. - changing the subject – So... are you gonna do it?
Prue: I have to, Piper. William won't move on with his life. William needs to hear his brother forgiving him and telling him the real reason he decided to put an end to his life.
Piper: Forgiving, I can understand... But how do you know that the real reason behind his killing himself isn't William?
Prue: No according to Phoebe's premonition.
Piper: What premonition?
Phoebe: - entering the attic – The one I had 5 minutes ago.
Piper: And...
Phoebe: Alex suffered from a mental disease and took medication. He was hiding this from William.
Piper: Why?
Prue: Probably because he thought that this would be the final strike to William's trust on his face.
Piper: Aha... so...
Phoebe: So what? It's pretty simple, he had one of his crisis and that's how it happened. Lack of proper medication, or to be correct, of right dose.
Prue: Ok, so now, can we cast the spell?
Prue, Piper and Phoebe hold hands standing over a table with some candles light on: Beloved spirit Alex, we seek your guidance, we ask you to commune with us and move among us!
The girls continue chanting until Alex's spirit appears in front of them.
Alex: What's going on? Who summoned me?
Prue looks at him, slightly smiling.

Change of Scene. Cut to a dark room. We see someone sleeping. The camera moves a little further and we see William lying in the bed. Despite the fact that he is sleeping, pain and agony are written all over his face. Suddenly Sec. Prue projects in and opens the apartment door. She projects out and one second later, Prue enters holding 5 candles and a lighter. She carefully closes the door and places the candles in the main table, lighting them up. Alex's spirit appears in front of her.
Prue: So Alex, you know what to do, right?
Alex: But what if I scare him? What if I make him even more mad?
Prue: You won't. William loved you so much. He thinks that he is responsible for your death.
Alex: No...
Prue: Now you understand why I summoned you? You are the only one that can help him.
Alex: - determined – So what do I say to him?
Prue: Just tell him the truth.
Alex: Ok.
Alex's spirit is moving over William. Alex is making a strange move in front of William's face and he wakes up!
William: What the...
Alex: It's ok bro, it's me... Alex...
William: - scared – Alex... But... But how???
Alex: It doesn't really matter William. All that matters is what I have to say to you.
William: Are you in my dreams?
Alex: - smiling faintly – Yes, I'm in your dreams.
William: Are you haunting me? For being so tough on you?
Alex: No, no at all. I'm here to tell you to let go and stop feeling guilty for what happened to me. It wasn't your fault!
William: But...
Alex: No buts! There were a lot of things for me you didn't know. If you search my medical file now you will understand.
William: So you you didn't commit suicide?
Alex: No, I died because of my being sick. During one of my crisis.
William: But... Wait... I don't understand! - crying -
Alex: I love you William. I always will. You are my brother. We had our grudges but that didn't mean I stopped loving you, like when we were little and you always protected me. Like a true old brother.
William: I love you Alex. I miss you so much.
Alex: I will always be with you. You may not understand it, but I always watch out for you.
William: Still, let me apologize for being so hard. - crying harder -
Alex: I have already forgiven you. Forgive yourself now, and move on to your life. Good things are expecting you bro.
William: - curious – What do you mean?
Alex: I can't tell you. It's your life. You are the one who must find out, living.
William: I love you – he says trying to touch him, but he just waves his arm through Alex's transparent figure -
Alex: Me too. No, sleep...
William: No, wait...!
Alex won't wait. He waves his arm in front of his face again, and William lies back, sleeping again.
Alex's spirit moves in the living room. Prue is there, having been listening the whole conversation. She tries to hide it, but she had been crying. Alex realizes it.
Alex: Are you alright?
Prue: - trying to hide her sob – Yeah! I'm just, you know, touched. He loved you and you loved him very much, right?
Alex: He was my big brother Prue. My only family.
Prue lowers her head, trying to hold her tears.
Alex: What's wrong?
Prue: Nothing... I just... I have two younger sisters too. And the youngest, Phoebe, sometimes...
Alex: No need to say more Prue.
Prue: Lately we had huge grudges about men and magic. But I don' want to lose her, I love her, she is my little sister.
Alex: Then talk straight to her. Don't be scared. Be honest to each other, it is the only way to communicate.
Prue: I know. I regret for so many things.
Alex: Then don't waste any more time. Go talk to her.
Prue: - smiling – I will... Thank you.
Alex smiles and Prue blows away the candles, resulting his disappearing in a shower of yellow lights.
Prue checks William for one last time, smiling. It's the last thing she does before she exits his apartment.

Change of Scene. 9:00 am. Piper is getting ready for work. She brushes her hair in front of the mirror. Leo orbs behind her, smiling.
Leo: Good morning!
Piper: - turns around smiling – Hey stranger.
Leo hugs her and kisses her.
Leo: I'm so sorry for last night. I know you wanted so bad to have a normal exit, talk about the baby, but...
Piper – interrupting him – Oh stop it Leo. It wasn't your fault. I am a Charmed One, you are a White Lighter. We knew it was going to be difficult. We can still have the talk.
Leo: When?
Piper: What do you say... Now! At P3.
Leo: Yeah?
Piper: Yeah!
Both of them smile and hug.

Cut to the Underworld. We see Zankou concentrating with his eyes closed. Suddenly a demon shimmers behind him.
Zoreilo: Zankou...
Zankou opens his eyes and turns around.
Zankou: So Zoreilo, do you have any news?
Zoreilo: I couldn't track Him. His hideout is very well sealed.
Zankou: I have to find Neptunas Zoreilo, it's the only way to free myself from The Source.
Zoreilo: But still, how do you know that he will keep his end of the bargain? How do you know he will give you your freedom?
Zankou: Because if he doesn't, then he knows that I am going to side with Crateras.
Zoreilo: - scared – WHAT? He is back too?
Zankou: Everyone is back. Even Uranus.
Zoreilo: Oh no...
Zankou: So the faster we find Neptunas the faster I gain my freedom and go on with my plans, before He imprisoned me.
Zoreilo: And the witches?
Zankou: They are powerful, especially when they are together. And especially the Eldest. She has the active power to make someone feel human emotions.
Zoreilo: Demons can't handle human emotions!
Zankou: Evil... can't handle human emotions Zoreilo. So if you find yourself near her, don't even let her project inside you.
Zoreilo: I'll keep that in mind sir.
Zankou: No go, keep on the search.
Zoreilo: Yes... – he says shimmering out , leaving Zankou concentrating-

Change Of scene. Phoebe is about to exit the manor for a new job interview but Prue stops her.
Prue: Hey Phoebs, wait!
Phoebe: What's wrong?
Prue: Can we talk for a minute?
Phoebe: Ahhh Prue... I have a job interview and...
Prue: It won't take long.
Phoebe: It's not just timing. I don't want to lose my good mood.
Prue: You won't. I don't want to scold you.
Phoebe: - curious – Then?
Prue: I want to apologize.
Phoebe: Excuse me?
Prue hugs Phoebe tight.
Prue: I love you so much sis.
Phoebe: - amazed – Ok, what is this?
Prue: - breaking the hug – Nothing, I just realized that the last couple months I've been really hard on you. With the whole Cole thing.
Phoebe: Prue...
Prue: We should have tried more. Protecting him, making the detox potion without stripping his powers, we should...
Phoebe: Prue stop. I know you are influenced from the whole William – Alex thing, but don't forget who we are, and what we do. And that I put the Charmed Triad in danger with my little tricks.
Prue: Wow, self critic?
Phoebe: No, I am just thinking clearer now that Cole and I...
Prue: It's not over honey. I know it's not. Cole loves you, I felt it one year ago, when I was an empath, remember? Feelings like these don't just go away.
Phoebe: But he went away – she says ready to cry -
Prue: Obviously to protect you! He knows that every time he comes back our lives are put in danger. So I'm sure that when we vanquish The Source -
Phoebe: And If we won't? What if it takes for ever? What if we takes years to find a way to vanquish Him and move on with our lives? This war seems endless Prue.
Prue: We won't. We are going to vanquish his sorry ass sooner or later. Piper and I are up on the vanquishing spell.
Phoebe: Really? I thought the idea died when I gave up on it.
Prue: Well we didn't. And we are going to need your help to finish it.
Phoebe: Great.
Prue hugs her again.
Prue: You have to know that I love you. I will do whatever it takes to protect you and keep you safe. You and your boyfriend.
Phoebe: - smiling silly – Even if he is a half demon? Or he has remains of his demonic powers?
Prue: Even that. After all his powers may be helpful after all. As long as we detox them! - she says smiling -
Phoebe: Thank you. This means a lot to me, but you know...
Prue: I know. Where is he now ha?
Phoebe: He must be hiding. But if they find him? What if they track his shimmers and kill him?
Prue: Even if it's our destiny to save human Cole, then you will probably get a premonition. Come on don't worry – she says stroking Phoebe's cheeks -
At the same time Piper and Leo appear next to the staircase.
Piper: - surprised – Ahhh... What's going on here? What did I miss?
Phoebe: Your role as the mediator!
The girls and Leo laugh.
Prue: Let's just say I got my lesson.
Phoebe: Me too.
Prue and Phoebe hug.
Piper: Ok... I'm glad! Leo and I are going to P3. Now if any demon or warlock or evil creature attacks, keep them busy for a couple of hours, ok?
Phoebe: Actually Prue will keep it busy. Me, I'm out for my job interview.
Prue: Yeah, I promise!
Piper and Leo exit the manor, followed by Phoebe. As Prue closes the door, we can hear them talking.
Piper: So what's the new job about?
Phoebe: Baby sitting!
Piper laughs.

Change Of scene. Cut to the old creepy house. The camera moves slowly towards the garden door. The last thing we see is something still moving in the abandoned house, before the camera faints out.
