"Phoebe! Get down here! Front and center!"
Phoebe came running down the old fashioned stair case as fast as her legs could carry her, after all when your big sister wants you it must be something extremely important.
"Where is my layout for next months magazine?"
"Beets me. Why don't you ask Piper?"
"Since when does she do practical jokes like this? I thought that I would spend my spare time today working on it, since we can't be in Disneyland, but no -- there is nothing to work on."
"Phoebe!" a voice called from the kitchen. "How could you eat our dinner all by yourself?"
"It wasn't me."
"Well, Prue was downstairs and I took a nap, so the only person left is you."
"Did you ever think about your husband?"
"Did you ever think about your demon boyfriend?"
"Just shut up! I didn't do it!" Phoebe returned to her room, knowing exactly who did do it -- Pamela. If she wasn't going to be a part of the family, then she was going to destroy what was left of ours.
Phoebe walked back downstairs and calmly asked Piper, "Did we search the entire house?"
"Yes. Of course."
"Are you sure?"
Piper looked at her sister and started to think about what had happened while they were gone. "I wonder if anything else was bothered?" Phoebe finally thought.
"The attic!" the two girls screamed as their eyes meat.
* * *
In the attic the Piper and Phoebe looked through every chest, book shelf, and in all of their normal hiding places. No luck. "I guess that we were wrong," Piper finally spoke up.
Phoebe walked over to the window and set on the floor. It was a place that she liked to unwind, and this was a perfect time to relax. As she leaned against the wall behind her she looked up at her beloved Book of Shadows, actually it was her family's beloved book of shadows, and she realized that it was no longer there.
"Phoebe! Piper!" Prue suddenly appeared in the attic with a mound of torn paper in her hands.
"What is it?" Piper asked.
"The Book of Shadows!" Phoebe responded. It had been shredded until the only visible print was "Book" and "Shadows."
"But how?" Piper asked. "The only ones who can touch this book are family members! So that means that one of you had to do it!"
"Ahhh - as I recall, none of us were here. Remember?" Prue responded, insulted.
"Then who? It's not like we have a long lost sister who can just break into the house and get to the book.
Somehow Phoebe had forgotten about Pam, but she knew that who was behind the act. Phoebe thought of a way to get rid of her sisters because something told her that they couldn't know. The only thing that she knew for certain is that she needed to get Piper and Prue out of the room, before they really found out what was going on.
Luckily, Leo showed up to save the day. "Piper! Prue! I need you now!"
"And why not Phoebe?"
"Because I need someone with developed active powers."
"Oh," they said in unison. "And why?"
"There is an emergency downtown."
They joined hands and Leo orbed them out of the house.
"Finally, alone!" Phoebe said relieved as they disappeared.
* * *
"Cole! Where are you? It's urgent!"
In a moment the man of Phoebe's was by her side. "What's wrong?"
"Do you remember Pamela?"
"Yes, quite vividly."
"Well, my sisters don't, and she's back."
"Absolutely not!"
"And why?"
"Because if they find out, she will be invited back into the family, and the evil will invade your household again."
"Oh--I see. So what should I do?"
"The same thing you do with the rest of the evil that invades you life--vanquish her!"
"I need to go--now."
"Why."
"She knows who I am and our relationship. If she sees me with you, she will know that it isn't safe."
"Thanks for the warning."
"I'll see you later, sweetheart." Cole started to shimmer away but stopped midway. "Weren't you suppose to be one vacation today?"
"Yah, but it didn't work out. We're going tomorrow."
"Well, have fun."
With that Cole left, this time
Phoebe listened to make sure that Piper was down the stairs and pulled out a notebook and a piece of paper. First she wrote a summoning spell.
To my evil sister, not meant to be
Come to my bedroom, for only me to see.
Loose your powers while you're here
To protect all those I hold dear.
Next she wrote a vanquishing spell.
To my evil sister, not meant to be
I command you to no longer be
Your evilness will now be gone
And our family will no longer bond
Your existence now shall end
And to nothingness, to you I send.
"Sort of corny, but I guess it will work." Phoebe couldn't imagine what Prue and Piper would think if they found out that they had another sister, especially and older one who happened to be evil. It was bad enough the first time. What if they invited her into the family? Would the same thing happen? Well, I'm not going to take the chance.
Suddenly Phoebe heard screaming from downstairs. She ran out in the hallway to see what had happened, but no one was in site.
"Anyone home?" she asked.
At the bottom of the stairs to girls who were extremely out of breath appeared.
"What's wrong?" Phoebe asked her hysteric sisters.
"They've been taken?"
"Who has?"
"Cole and Leo, by someone I think that I have seen before, but I can't remember where."
Phoebe knew immediately who it was. Pam had struck again, and this time she took the two men that her family loved.
"She said that the only way to free them was for Prue to do something - something that there was no way on Earth that she would do. What should we do?"
"I had a premonition while you were gone that everything would be fine, without us being involve."
"So, what should we do?"
"Go to bed!"
The three girls all went to their rooms, but their mind couldn't easily forget the events of the day as their bodies had.
* * *
Phoebe returned to her room and settled in on her bed. "Boy, this is the first time I have been asked for advice, and they actually took it! Guess I better enjoy it while it last."
Phoebe began to read the summoning spell, and of course it worked. Her spell writing powers sure had improved from the first time she tried it! She just hoped that the spells would also bring Cole and Leo back, but for some reason she knew they wouldn't.
In the room a person appeared, and sure enough it was Pam.
"So what do you want? Do you want to apologize for not letting me in your family, because I know you had something to do with it." Pam looked at the book next to Phoebe's book and tried to get it hit Phoebe, but it didn't work. She tried again, and again, but still no luck.
Finally, Phoebe started to laugh. "Your magic won't work here. So, not only can you not use your powers, but also you can't leave. That is until I send you back."
"So send me back."
"Sorry, not yet."
Phoebe looked down at her paper and smiled at her evil sister. "Well, I guess it's time for you to leave."
"Don't think I won't be coming back."
"Don't worry, I don't think it--I know it."
Phoebe began to read her last spell. It was the one to vanquish the trader that was in front of her.
The wind began to pick up in the room, and Pamela started to scream. Phoebe could hear the sound of running footsteps coming up the manor's stairs, but luckily by the time that her sisters arrived Pam was gone--gone for good.
Piper and Prue and returned and had heard the screaming.
"What's wrong?" Piper asked.
"What's wrong?" Piper asked.
"Just a nightmare. I'm fine."
"Well, if you need anything just holler."
"Okay," Phoebe said and smiled at her sisters, before they left the room.
"Oh, why did you get back so fast?"
"A false alarm. Nothing was wrong - what so ever."
Boy were they wrong!
"Goodnight," Phoebe said in hopes of getting rid of her sisters.
"Phoebe hadn't realized how late it was, and since they were leaving early the next morning, she needed to get some sleep.
