TEASER
(this episode takes place after the 4th season finale as a possible 5th season opener)
FADE IN:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO CEMETERY- NIGHT
Paige slowly makes her way through the dark cemetery as she's careful not to stumble over objects she's unable to see.
PAIGE
God, I hate cemeteries.
She looks around and sees the location of her desire, a family mausoleum crypt. She opens the door and steps inside.
CUT TO:
INT. INSIDE THE MAUSOLEUM
Paige looks around for a moment before she sees the tomb she's looking for. She walks over to it and the tomb she wanted lays right before her with an inscription saying:
ANGLE: PRUDENCE HALLIWELL 1970 TO 2001
PAIGE
I hope this works.
Paige closes her eyes as she concentrates with all her ability.
PAIGE
Lock of hair.
In her hand, materializes a lock of straight black hair. Paige closes her hand and holds the lock of hair against her chest.
PAIGE
This is it. This is the last ingredient.
(MORE)
PAIGE (cont'd)
The plan is slowly coming into duration. If
all goes according to schedule, the spell
will work.
Paige walks out of the mausoleum.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE CEMETERY
Paige makes her way through the darkness careful not to stumble over any tombstones. But suddenly, she hears a snapping sound. She looks back but sees nothing so she continues on her way. She hears the snapping sound again and immediately turns around as a reaction. But all she sees is darkness and a light fog starting to form along the grounds.
PAIGE
This is starting to look scary. I better
high-tale it out of here before a Michael
Myers scene takes place.
As Paige turns her head to resume walking, she screams at the sight of a hideous decaying zombie standing right in front of her.
PAIGE
Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
The zombie pushes Paige by her shoulders and she flies back six feet. As the zombie approaches her, Paige aims for a tombstone.
PAIGE
Tombstone!, zombies head!
The tombstone next to Paige is engulfed with orb energy beams but rematerializes as the mass of the tomb was too heavy for Paige's power. The zombie lets out a demonic snarl as it shot a gooey black substance at Paige. Paige roles over and it hits the ground. Paige looks as the slime burns through the ground. She then gets up and begins to run. The zombie walks after her.
The zombie is tall five foot ten, ash gray skin, slimy black hair, green, brown, and black stains all over his decaying skin, brown fangs, and yellow cat eyes. Paige makes it to the end of the cemetery but she finds herself barricaded inside by a steel gate. The zombie stops in front of her and his hands start to glow with a sparkling green mist. Paige notices the tips of the steel gate forged into spikes. She then quickly aims for them.
PAIGE
Spikes!, kill zombie!
Four spikes materialize off the top of the gate and rematerialize in mid air as they fly toward the zombie. The spikes penetrate the zombie in the middle of his forehead, his neck, the middle of his chest, and his stomach. As black blood oozes out the wound, the zombie falls to the floor and it's body bursts into blue fire.
PAIGE
What the hell was that all about?! And why
is night of the living dead happening now
out of all times. I better check the Book
of Shadows before my plans get interrupted.
Paige turns and aims at the beams of the steel gate.
PAIGE
Beams, floor.
Three steel beams from the middle of the gate materialize off their hinges and rematerialize on the floor. Paige goes through the opening and makes her way down the street.
ANGLE: SETTING FADES AS WE ZOOM OUT FROM THE SEERS EYES
CUT TO:
INT. THE CAVERNS OF HELL- THE SOURCES THRONE ROOM
The Seers pupils take form as she walks over to a golden urn with tribal markings on it. She takes a silver mug and pours blood into the urn. She sprinkles black herbs around the urn to make a circle. With a wave of her hand, the inside of the urn combusts into fire and a glowing red mist creeps its way out of the urn.
SEER
Ghede, in the name of the Source and the
powers of this All Hollows Eve, I demand
that you cross the astral plain as you
take mass and show your presence before me!
A glowing red electrical pulse shoots out of the urn and strikes a pentagram craved on the floor at the other side of the room. The pentagram glows in a dark orange color as a pillar of purple fire rises up from the middle of the pentagram. A dark gray spirit appears within the fire and absorbs the fire as it begins to take mass and solidify.
As the Seer approaches the fire, a zombie similar to the one Paige defeated solidifies before her. This one was taller, six feet, chalk white hair, witch hooked nose, dark glasses, long black silk cape and cowl with hood, yellow fangs, black claws, green, brown, and black stains all over his decaying ash gray skin, with a dirty dark gray suit, and voodoo necklaces and pendants around his neck.
GHEDE
(deep gargled demonic voice)
Seer, why have you brought me here?!
Ghede removes his shades to reveal his red cat eyes that are glowing and throwing out fire due to his anger.
SEER
Calm yourself. You're in the throne room
of the Source.
GHEDE
I don't recognize the Source! Or his
whorish minions!
SEER
Be careful Ghede. Just because you label
yourself the Voodoo god of wisdom and death
doesn't, you have the powers of a God.
The fire in his eyes subside.
GHEDE
The Source can't hurt me or any of the
Servants I protect. Remember, I am
Death!
SEER
I didn't bring you here to challenge your
authority. Why challenge an authority in
in a realm where you have none.
GHEDE
Hold your tongue Seer! Death cannot die.
But you can! The Source may be the reigning
evil in Hell and Earth, but in the astral
plain, the spirit realm, and the nether
realm, I'm the Source! The reigning
evil in those realms. Balthezor is just
second power. Next to the Dark Prince of
of course.
SEER
As are you Ghede. Tell me, why do you come
to Earth every Hallows Eve? Besides the fact
that this is the only day of the year you
can penetrate the dimensional barriers that
protect Earth from your realms.
GHEDE
I'm no fool. Earth is located in the central
point of the Suns breeding life force. The sun
breed's life and death in all points of the
Earth and it's in that life force where demons
and conjurors draw out the mystical powers
needed for all incantations. These mystical
powers exist in a variety of stages beside
nature. The Earth is a mystical hot spot and
anyone who absorbs Earth's mystical forces will
reign supreme and invincible.
SEER
We are in agreement. And in this spirit of agreement I summoned you because this matter interests you as much as it interests us.
GHEDE
What is it?
SEER
I need you to destroy the Charmed Ones.
ACT ONE
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO SKYLINE- DAY
The hit pop-rock single, "It's Killing Me" from the group D.C. Talk, fades in with this opening scene as clips of the San Francisco skyline are shown.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE MANOR- MORNING
The morning sunlight fills Prescott Street as the paperboy completes his route and homeowners sprinkle their grass lawns as the day begins to unfold.
CUT TO:
INT. THE MANOR- KITCHEN
The kitchen table is swamped with paper work as Piper skims and searches through the pile. Phoebe drinks her morning coffee as she reads through her over due column. At 1:09 min. the song fades out as Paige walks in the kitchen.
PIPER
Paige, do you have the DVAM file by
any chance.
PAIGE
I thought I gave that to you last night.
Piper looks around the table as she lifts up several pieces of paper.
PIPER
Um…
PAIGE
It's okay Piper. I'll help you with the
paper work.
PIPER
Thanks.
PAIGE
It's me who should be thanking you. How
many people would offer up their
establishment for Domestic Violence
Awareness free of charge?
PIPER
Well, you'd be surprised how many people
would actually sacrifice their time to
donate to a worthy cause.
PAIGE
Yeah but not many people would use their
own contacts to have D.C. Talk play at the benefit.
PIPER
Oh Paige, it's nothing really.
PAIGE
Well, thank you nonetheless.
Phoebe hands Paige a navy blue folder.
PHOEBE
Is this the file you're looking for?
PAIGE
Oh Yeah, thanks. Are you gonna be at the
benefit tonight Pheebs?
PHOEBE
Oh, I don't know. I have a lot of work
to catch up on.
PIPER
You alright Phoebe? I mean, you haven't
done much in the past three months.
PHOEBE
I'm fine, I just need to concentrate more
on my work.
PAIGE
But that's all you've been doing. In fact,
you haven't said much since Cole's appearances.
Paige exchanges an expression of embarrassment with Piper as she stopped herself from going on.
PAIGE
It's just that it's Halloween and going
to the benefit and contributing to a
worthy cause might help get your mind
off things.
PHOEBE
I'll think about it but I doubt I'll be able
to make it.
PIPER
Well if you change your mind Phoebe--
PHOEBE
We'll see. I have to get to work now. I
might not be home for dinner so I'll see
you guys later.
Phoebe collects her column, purse, and jacket and leaves the room.
PAIGE
You think she'll be alright.
PIPER
Of course she will. She just needs some
time. This is a complicated situation she
needs to work out. Giving time and space
is the only way we could help her now. Can
you find the program schedule for me. I
have to make sure D.C. Talk's time slot
is from eleven thirty to one o'clock.
CUT TO:
INT. THRONE ROOM OF THE SOURCE
The Seer and Ghede continue their conversation.
GHEDE
The Charmed Ones?! Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha,
(more)
GHEDE (cont'd)
ha, ha! What, The Source couldn't handle
them so you want me to do your dirty
work for you? I refuse to suffer Balthezor's fate.
SEER
I don't know what your talking about.
GHEDE
Oh please. Do you think I'm an idiot. I
have my servants in this realm and I
heard how Balthezor's witch couldn't
stomach the throne of evil and ended up
vanquishing him. I know it all. And I
know that you will continue serving the
dead source until you find a new one to
take his place.
SEER
That is why I summoned you Ghede. Earth
is the only realm where you have no upper
level authority. Whoever destroys the
Charmed Ones will inherit the Sources
powers and in effect become the new Source.
GHEDE
And what is the guarantee that I won't
go out like the last two Sources? The
Charmed Ones powers are great. And they
were enough to take out the Source. You
offer me a poor consolation prize Seer!
SEER
But wait. As you said before, you are the
Source of Evil in the astral plain, the
spirit realm, and the nether realm. If you
acquire the powers of the Source from this
realm, your status will be equal to that
of the ancient Prince of Darkness and you
will be able to wage a war against him and
take his throne. With that, you will be
supreme over all evil and the universe will
be at your mercy. The forces of the Source
only have control over a third of this
world. But if you kill the Charmed Ones
and attain the Sources power, you could
SEER (cont'd)
have it all.
Ghede lowers his eyes in thought as the Seer convinced him.
CUT TO:
INT. THE MANOR- THE LIVING ROOM
Paige looks through her shoebox checking over the ingredients she needs for her spell. Piper abruptly walks into the living room.
PIPER
Paige!
Paige gets startled and knocks down the box.
PIPER
Oops! Sorry.
Piper proceeds to help Paige.
PAIGE
NO! It's okay Piper. I got it.
PIPER
What you got there? It looks like
ingredients for a spell.
PAIGE
It's still in the theoretical stages. It's
just a little experiment that might enhance
the powers of the Charmed circle.
PIPER
Sounds interesting. You need any help?
PAIGE
Nope. I've been researching this for the
past seven months. Even more so since we
vanquished Cole's Source-hood.
PIPER
Why?
PAIGE
Well since we vanquished the first source,
our death became the prize for the any
demon that wished to inherit the Source-hood.
And now that Cole has been vanquished,
even though we haven't faced any demons
lately, experience as a Charmed one has
taught me that something big is about to
come against us if we don't act fast.
PIPER
I see. Well whatever this big thing is,
tell them to bring it on tomorrow after
the benefit. Or at least until I come
back from the market. I just came to see
if you needed anything.
PAIGE
A grapefruit juice would be good.
PIPER
Okay. So I'll--
In that instant, thick red, black, and orange lightning bolts clash together. In a slight tremor that shook the manor, Ghede materializes from an intense pillar of orange-red fire. Piper and Paige stare in shock at the hideous monster that just appeared in their living room.
Ghede shoots a light black energy ball with crackling gray thunder at the girls. Piper and Paige dodge the energy ball as they dive in opposite directions. Ghede then spots Paige's shoebox. But Piper explodes Ghede with a hard thrust from her opening fist. As Ghede's body blows outward from within, a black web of black electricity emanating from a black energy ball in the center of his chest pulls the pieces of his body back into place.
Ghede lets out a sinister laugh mocking the witches' efforts. Paige and Piper quickly get to their feet and Paige waves her arm at the television.
PAIGE
TV, head!!
The television dematerializes with the submersion of white lighter energy sparks and rematerializes over Ghede's head and falls screen first onto it. Ghede staggers on his feet as the electrical sparks from the television statically shock him in repeated intervals. Ghede shoots out an energy ball in frustration. Paige then waves her arm at it.
PAIGE
Deflect!
The energy ball dematerializes just as its about to hit Piper and rematerializes in mid air flying back to Ghede. Piper thrust open her fist at the same time the energy ball hits Ghede and his body explodes in a fiery burst with Ghede shirking in defeat.
PIPER
What the hell was that?!
PAIGE
(pretending)
Um… I have no clue.
PIPER
Ugh! So much for going to the market. I'm
going to the book. You call Phoebe and
tell her what just happen. We might need
her for this.
PAIGE
Right.
As Piper leaves the room, Paige looks at her open shoebox and then at the spot where Ghede appeared in quiet question.
CUT TO:
INT. THRONE ROOM OF THE SOURCE
The Seer walks over to the golden urn and pours blood into it. She sprinkles the black herbs around it and the inside of the urn combusts into fire and the glowing red mist creeps its way out of the urn making Ghede materialize in her presence as he continues screaming.
SEER
Oh calm yourself.
GHEDE
You try to stay calm when a witch
vanquishes you with your own powers!
SEER
Part of what makes the Charmed ones
so powerful are their unorthodox strategies.
GHEDE
Does resurrection count as one of those strategies?
SEER
Resurrection?
GHEDE
I saw the ingredients to a resurrection
spell.
SEER
Are you sure?
GHEDE
I'm the demon of death! I know a resurrection
spell when I see one!
SEER
You're right Ghede. It is as you saw it.
GHEDE
Of course it is. The question is who are
they going to resurrect.
SEER
Their sister.
GHEDE
What?! Why didn't you inform me of this?!
SEER
Because it changes nothing. To destroy the
Charmed circle you need only to kill one
of them and that ends the threat.
GHEDE
But how can that threat end when they have
the power to cheat death?!
SEER
They don't have that power. It's All
Hollows Eve that will enable them to
succeed. But without the power of three,
their nothing but parlor trick witches.
GHEDE
The Charmed ones were able to reconstitute
their power when their sister was killed.
How do we know they won't be able to do
it again?
SEER
Because I doubt their mother would have a
fifth child waiting in the mists. That
would be--how do humans call it?
GHEDE
Cheesy?
SEER
Yes. This time, when you attempt destroy
them again, you need a better plan.
CUT TO:
INT. THE MANOR- THE ATTIC
Paige walks into the attic while Piper looks through the Book of Shadows.
PAIGE
I just called Phoebe and she's on her
way. It was like pulling teeth to get her
away from her desk.
PIPER
I understand that she needs a little time
right now to be alone but now isn't the
time for her to slack off on demonic
emergencies.
PAIGE
I just hope that zombie wasn't the first
of an army.
PIPER
How did you know he was a zombie?
PAIGE
Well… I just took a lucky guess. I mean
look at him.
PIPER
It seems you guessed right.
Piper showed her a picture of Ghede in the Book of Shadows.
PAIGE
That's a pretty accurate drawing.
PIPER
A little too accurate. It turns out that
his name is Ghede and he's the zombie-demon
of death that's worshipped as a god in the
voodoo craft. He's a highly spiritual entity
that's only able to appear on Earth once every
year for twenty-four hours on All Hallows Eve.
PAIGE
Great. So all we have to do is avoid him until
midnight and he'll dissipate back into the
astral plain.
Suddenly, Leo orbs into the attic.
LEO
Guys, heads up. The elders want you to know
that you've incurred the wrath of Ghede the
zombie-demon of death.
PIPER
Already on that page honey. I'm just trying
to find a vanquish in case he comes back.
LEO
You can't vanquish him. On All Hallows Eve,
you can dematerialize his body but he'll
just keep on coming back. The elders told
me that the underworld set him loose on you
because of Paige's spell.
Paige stands there in shock.
ACT TWO
INT. THE MANOR- MAIN STAIRCASE
Paige walks down the stairs with Piper and Leo behind her.
PIPER
Paige stop. What is Leo talking about?
What spell?
Phoebe walks through the door at that last sentence.
PHOEBE
What spell?
PAIGE
Look you guys. It's nothing. Don't worry
about it.
LEO
Paige, I don't want to get on your bad side--
PAIGE
Then don't say anything.
LEO
They're your sisters and they have the
right to know what your doing.
PIPER
Wait. Does this have anything to do with
that spell you did a bunch of research
on to increase the power in the Charmed
circle?
PAIGE
I guess… I--I mean it might--I don't know!
PHOEBE
Hello? What spell?!
A light tremor rocks the foundation of the manor.
PIPER
Oh great.
Ghede then appears from a pillar of orange-red fire.
PHOEBE
What the hell is that?!
PIPER
We'll catch you up later. (to Ghede)
What do you want.
GHEDE
I trust by now you know who I am. So I
came to offer you a proposition. If you
surrender yourselves now, I will make
sure your deaths are quick and painless.
PIPER
Since when do demons believe or even
practice quick painless deaths?
GHEDE
I have no need for self-indulging sodomy.
My reign in this realm is almost at hand.
Better you call in your undefeated record
now then to die in a hopeless cause.
PIPER
Our cause is only hopeless when we give into
scum like you.
Ghede throws an energy ball at Piper but Paige deflects it back, this time without saying a word. The ball hits Ghede and he staggers back two feet.
GHEDE
You witches have become very confident.
You think you're so powerful now that
you've nailed a resurrection spell.
Well I'll make sure that'll never happen.
I'll make sure that you won't bring
back your fallen sister. Instead, I'll
make you join her!
The manor shakes as an orange-red pillar of fire takes Ghede away. Piper and Phoebe remain with surprised confusion on their faces and turn to Paige to see an obvious expression of guilt on hers.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO CEMETARY- SUNSET
Ghede shows up in the middle of the cemetery. His hands glow in a crackling green energy distortion. As he lifts his hands into the air, strong winds are propelled in his direction and through out the cemetery.
GHEDE
(creole)
All who lay dead, all dead who hear this,
rise soulless through out this night until
withering takes it's toll and befalls you.
The green distortion pops out of his hands and spreads through out the cemetery like an energy wave. The dirt of all the graves begins to mush up as rotting decaying corpses rise up from their tombs and to join their master.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE MANOR- NIGHT
CUT TO:
INT. THE ATTIC
Phoebe looks through the Book of Shadows while Piper lectures Paige.
PIPER
This is insane Paige. Prue cannot come
back. You can't be dead and come back!
PAIGE
Says who?
PIPER
Says the rules of nature and the super-
natural!
PAIGE
But I've done thorough research, the plan
can work.
PIPER
No it cannot believe me. Phoebe and I have
tried all the magical ways the Book had to
cheat death after Prue died and it did
nothing.
PAIGE
Why are you so adamant about not hearing
me out? You haven't even given me the
chance to explain.
PIPER
Because Prue is dead! Because tampering
with life and death is dangerous enough
without tugging on its threads to manipulate
it in getting what we want! Do you even
know what the consequences will be if we
even tried let alone succeeded at this?!
PAIGE
Oh please. The worse that can happen is that
the universe will take away a certain amount
of years from our lives to add on to Prue's.
PHOEBE
You've seemed to have thoroughly planned
this out.
PAIGE
I did. Month's worth of planning and
research.
PIPER
And having our lives shorten for this is
something not worth mentioning.
PAIGE
I'm mentioning it now, aren't I?
PIPER
What is with this attitude Paige?
PAIGE
My attitude? You're the one who's having
an aneurysm over this! I don't understand.
When Prue died, you were the one who took
(MORE)
PAIGE (cont'd)
it the hardest. You were ready to become
a full-fledged fury because of the pain
Prue's death caused you. And now you're
acting like I'm committing a capital
offense. Why is this bothering you so
much? Why are you so frighten by an
aspect you would've taken full advantage
of if this were to have come along a
year ago.
PIPER
Because I don't wanna go there again Paige!
I barely got through the pain of getting
over Prue's death. And now you offer me a
way to get her back and if this fails,
which most likely it will if the elders
have their way, then I feel like I lost
my sister again and (voice cracking) I
don't think I can handle that again.
Paige and Phoebe exchange a sympathizing look as Piper begins to break down. They both go and embrace Piper as her tears flow. Then let go.
PHOEBE
Piper it wasn't your fault that Prue died.
PIPER
(voice cracking)
Yes it is. If I had stopped her from going
up against Shacks then maybe we would've
found a way to save you without her giving
up her life.
PAIGE
Piper, what's done is done. Prue wouldn't
have felt confident enough to give her life
if she didn't think you weren't strong enough
to face the Source without her. She didn't die
because of you, she died because of the cause
that she believed in.
PHOEBE
Our destiny in protecting the innocent.
PIPER
(cracking)
I just don't know how being the oldest
sister and the leader of the Charmed
ones made her stronger when it depletes
my strength.
PHOEBE
Honey, we've gone through trials and
tribulations that have changed us profoundly,
you know that. But that doesn't mean that
the trials are gonna stop coming. But just because we have a moment of weakness that
doesn't make it our fault.
PAIGE
Or yours.
PHOEBE
Come here.
Phoebe and Paige embrace Piper again.
PHOEBE
Now look, we've lost a lot over the years.
If Paige has a plan to bring Prue back, I
think we should at least hear her out to
see if the plan is sound. But first tell me,
why did you of all people come up with the
idea to bring Prue back.
PAIGE
Well I--
Leo orbs into the acting cutting her off.
LEO
You can't seriously be considering this.
PHOEBE
Leo, were you listening?
LEO
I wanted to come in before but it didn't
seem like the right time.
PHOEBE
Why shouldn't we consider this?
LEO
Because you should be finding out away
to stop Ghede.
PHOEBE
There's no mention of a vanquish in the book.
LEO
You can't vanquish death Phoebe.
PHOEBE
So if he's death then how are we suppose
to stop him?!
LEO
You can't find the answer to that if you
indulge Paige's idea.
PHOEBE
The elders sent you didn't they? After all
that's happened to us and all the times
we stuck our necks out for them and the
world, they still won't let us take
a little back.
LEO
The elders have no control over nature and
the universe. If the consequences are too
severe--
PHOEBE
Screw the consequences Leo! This is Prue
we're talking about.
LEO
Look I miss Prue too. But if you ask me,
you're thinking more about yourselves
and less about her.
PHOEBE
What are you talking about?
LEO
Prue is in the Hereafter where it's
peaceful and serene. If you bring her
back from paradise, you'll be cutting
off a reward that she worked hard to
earn. I think we should forget about
bringing her back and concentrate on
Ghede.
Phoebe walks over to the stand where the Book of Shadows is placed.
PHOEBE
I'll find a spell to help us against
Ghede but were not forgetting about
Paige's plan. *gasps*
As Phoebe touched the book, a black and white vision engulfed her mind. She saw Ghede chanting his spell and awakening the undead. Phoebe leans forward on the book as the premonition knocked the wind out of her.
PIPER
Phoebe?
PHOEBE
I saw Ghede chanting a spell in Creole
and raising a bunch of zombies from
the cemetery.
PAIGE
Okay. I think things just went from bad
to worse.
PIPER
Oh God! The benefit. With all this about
Prue and Ghede I completely forgot!
PHOEBE
Okay, calm down. You and Paige go to P3
while Leo and I work on Ghede.
PAIGE
What about my plan?
PHOEBE
We can worry about that later.
PAIGE
Later when?
PHOEBE
I don't know Paige. Tomorrow when Ghede is
out of the way.
PAIGE
That'll be too late. The window of opportunity exists now.
PIPER
What do you mean?
PAIGE
In my research it said that on All Hallows
Eve, the veil between worlds thins which
enables the dead to crossover just for today.
Although good spirits have been known to
crossover on many occasions, it's usually
vanquished demons who crossover to take
revenge on their murderer. Magic alone won't
be able to bring Prue back. We need a power
source conduit to channel our magic through
in order for Prue to crossover. Once she's
on our plain, she should take physical form
and come back to life again.
PHOEBE
But ghosts have been on this plain before
without coming back to life. Some have even
broke into the physical plain.
PAIGE
Yeah but they were still walking in the
spirit realm. We need to open an inter-
dimensional rift from the spirit realm
to the physical for Prue to completely
crossover. Once she does, her spirit
will manifest a physical form to meet the
laws of this realm. Just as if one of you
were to cross the rift into the spirit realm,
unless protected by magic, you would die.
PIPER
That rift sounds like it needs a lot of
power to be formed. Are you sure your
spell has enough magical kick to generate
that kind of energy?
PAIGE
Yes. I've combined the power of three spell,
with the spell to call a lost witch, the
source-vanquishing spell, the waking spell,
and the spell to call a spirit from the
other side. But without the power of All
Hollows Eve, no amount of spell mixing,
play on words, or potion concocting
will work. This is our only chance.
PHOEBE
Fine. At twenty to midnight we'll go ahead
with Paige's resurrection plan. That way
we can take the rest of this time to
concentrate on stopping Ghede from doing
whatever he's planning.
PIPER
We know he's raising a bunch of zombies,
the question is, for what? And how do we
vanquish something that's already dead
especially with death protecting it?
PAIGE
Well, last night when I had to go to the
cemetery to get a lock of Prue's hair I
killed a zombie with regular fence spikes.
PHOEBE
Yeah but Piper is on to something. Ghede
probably has some form of magical protection
around them. I could write out the Creole
pronunciations of the spell and Leo can
translate it so I can see if the terms of
the spell give us a clue on how to stop them.
LEO
There's just one question left to be answered.
If Prue does come back, what effects will that
have on your powers?
ACT THREE
INT. THE MANOR- LIVING ROOM
Piper and Paige walk in and out the front door with bags for the benefit as Leo and Phoebe sit on the sofa opposite from each other while Phoebe writes out the Creole pronunciations of Ghede's spell.
Piper comes in the living with her car keys in hand.
PIPER
Okay. Paige and I will be at the club
getting everything set up. As soon as you
locate Ghede you call us so we can take
care of his demon ass.
PHOEBE
Right. If I can figure out the context of
Ghede's undead spell, I bet I can use the
book to figure out a plan against him.
Paige comes out the kitchen with the last bag.
PAIGE
The car is set.
LEO
I strongly suggest you guys consider what
you're about to do. Paige's research pointed
it out dead center.
PAIGE
It's a fifty-fifty chance Leo.
PIPER
I'll be willing to take that chance any day
if it means bringing Prue back.
PHOEBE
I'm with Piper. So what if we loose our powers.
We've been able to fight evil at other times
when our powers were disabled.
LEO
But your powers won't just be disabled,
they'll be erased as if they were never
there in the first place.
PHOEBE
So what? There are mortals out there who
practice Wicca and are able to manifest
magical ability in time. Hell Leo, there
are people out there with the same power
of Prue and Paige and they don't have an
ounce of magical ability in them.
LEO
But those people spent years developing
their skills Phoebe. Are you guys prepared
to spend years honing spiritual abilities
that might never even surface? What if a
demon attacks and you don't have your powers?
PAIGE
Our powers don't make us witches Leo. We're
the ones who put in the time, effort, and
sacrifice to do the things we do. In the end,
it's not the Charmed circle that makes us
the Charmed Ones, but the goodness in our
hearts that enable us to be the Charmed Ones.
Remember that.
With that last word, Paige walks out the door and Phoebe goes back to writing down the spell. Piper goes up to Leo and embraces him.
PIPER
I know your trying to protect us but don't
be mad at them. They just want their sister
back.
LEO
You and Phoebe maybe but why Paige? I mean,
she's never even met Prue.
PIPER
I don't know. Maybe she wants to meet her
because she's heard us talking about her all
this time and she's curious about her.
LEO
So that's why she's going through the
trouble of bringing Prue back from the
dead, to meet her?
PIPER
I know we're missing something big in
Paige's motive toward bringing Prue back
but I'll try to get it out of her later.
Right now, we have a benefit to plan and
a demon to vanquish.
LEO
Your right. We'll call as soon as we find something.
Piper kisses Leo on the lips as she walks out the front door.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA- NIGHT
Darryl is on an undercover assignment. He's dressed in dark blue baggy jeans, black boots, a button down red Pure Playerz shirt, a black Du-Rag, a thick tiger-eye platinum chain, and gold rings on his fingers on both hands.
He hears a scrapping noise but sees nothing. When he turns around, a man dressed in a red bandana, ripped faded blue jeans, and a leather jacket with no shirt is standing in front of Darryl when he turns his head back around.
MAN
Expecting another buyer T-Bone?
DARRYL
You know we've already made the deal
between us.
MAN
Right. So how much?
DARRYL
Fifty Kilos of cocaine—for you, five
hundred.
MAN
No deal.
DARRYL
It's what we settled on.
The buyer pulls out a gun.
MAN
Oh, I'll take the kilos, but I'm altering
the perimeters of our agreement.
DARRYL
Oh I don't think so.
As Darryl reaches for his gun, a slight rumbling vibration rides against the solid pavement. A red-orange light is seen behind the bushes eight feet in back of the two men.
DARRYL
What the hell was that?
Before Darryl could react, the buyer reaches into his shirt pocket, grabs the cocaine, and starts to run out of there. As the buyer runs, he trips over and falls to the ground. As he gets up, he's shocked as he notices Ghede and his gang of zombies standing right in front of him.
GHEDE
You reek of chemical dependency!
MAN
That's a nice costume pal!
The buyer holds his gun up in Ghede's face. Ghede grabs him by the arms as his hands begin to glow and crackle with black energy. The man screams as a green smoke comes out of his pours and begins to whither up his body. Ghede's eyes glow a bright red as the man's soul exits out his eyes and mouth and into Ghede's eyes and mouth. Ghede lets out a belch as he drops the withered body in a dry thumb.
Ghede and his zombies begin to walk toward Darryl.
GHEDE
And you, you reek of the Charmed Ones. I
promise to give you a quick death if you
help me lay out a trap for them.
Darryl picks up a half empty liquor bottle from the littered street.
DARRYL
Trap this!
Darryl throws the bottle in Ghedes direction and then shoots it. The bottle explodes in a fiery burst as small flames and hot glass rain down on Ghede and his minions. As they stagger back Darryl makes a quick break for it.
GHEDE
Get him!
Darryl darts down the street. He looks back to see the zombies walking after him but with the same speed that he's running in. Darryl cuts through the wooded hillside area that's right in front of the bay.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO BAY- HILLSIDE AREA- FOOD COURT
He makes his way to a deserted out door eating area and hides himself at the edge of where the cluster of lawn furniture ends.
Ghede and his zombies enter the eating area.
GHEDE
I can smell him. Fan out, and if you
see him, kill him.
The zombies split up through out the cluster of lawn furniture. Darryl is under the table that's in the outer most edge of the cluster. As the zombie neared Darryl's location, he crawled to the side of the table. When the zombie was close enough, he kicked the back of the zombie's knee making it fall forward. He then elbowed the zombie in it's upper back breaking it's neck bone.
As Darryl got up to run, several zombie's shot globs of acid from their mouth at him. Darryl pulled out his gun and shot three bullets at one zombie breaking off a chuck of its upper right skull as it fell to the ground. The zombie Darryl knocked down adjusted his head and got up. As did the zombie that was shot, got up with its skull bleeding black blood with a part of it's gray rotted brain showing. They continue their pursuit.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO DOCKS- NIGHT
Darryl runs all the way down to the docks. He makes his way toward a docking shed where motorboats are kept. He runs into it to take shelter. But the zombie's followed his smell to this location. They began to shoot globs of acid at the shed and Ghede began shooting black energy balls.
CUT TO:
INT. DOCKING SHED
Darryl dunks on the floor from the rain of zombie fire. He notices a puddle of boiling acid next to seven containers of motor oil. He runs to the window on the other side of the shed.
CUT TO:
EXT. OUTSIDE THE DOCKING SHED
Ghede throws one more black energy ball at the shed.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE BACK OF THE DOCKING SHED
ANGLE: DARRYL DIVING IN THE WATER AS THE SHED EXPLODES
CUT TO:
EXT. THE HUGE BON-FIRE THAT WAS THE SHED
ZOMBIE
As you commanded master.
GHEDE
Lets just check to make sure.
CUT TO:
EXT. UNDER THE DOCKS
Darryl swims up under the docks and looks up as he hears the zombie's footsteps.
As one of the zombie henchmen nears the side edge, Darryl grabs his ankle and brings him into the water. Ghede looks back and sees Darryl running into the wooded area once again. The zombie's pursue.
CUT TO:
EXT. SAN FRANCISCO BAY HILLSIDE
Darryl runs down the path to be stopped by a dead end rock face. He looks around for things to use to his advantage.
Ghede enters the rock face area in search of Darrel. Ghede hears nothing. Ghede sees Darryl's Du-Rag behind a bush. Ghede pounces at the Du-Rag as he breaks through the bush. He rises to his feet to find nothing but the Du-Rag in his hand. Darryl jumps Ghede from behind and slams him up against a huge rock. As Ghede aims his glowing hand at Darryl, Darryl slams Ghede hand on the rock and Ghede lets out a crackling pillar of black energy that hits one of the zombie henchmen. The zombie withers into dust.
Ghede kicks Darryl off him. As Ghede lunges toward Darryl, Darryl catches his coat, falls back taking Ghede down with him, and flips him over using his leg. Ghede goes flying off and is thrown up against the rock face, which knocks him out cold. Darryl gets up and runs off.
CUT TO:
EXT. P3- NIGHT
CUT TO:
INT. P3- MAIN CLUB FLOOR
Piper, Paige, and the waiters of P3 frantically walk around the club stocking the bar, setting up the stage, putting up Halloween decorations, and cleaning the area for the arrival of D.C. Talk and the club goers.
As Piper cleans and sets up the bar, Paige sits in a bar stool in front of Piper and reaches down over the bar for a mineral water.
PAIGE
Sorry, I just want to take a little break.
PIPER
Oh, don't be. You've done more than keep
your word when you said you'd take care
of mostly everything. This benefit will
get the club great publicity.
PAIGE
This benefit could even get me back that
promotion I turned down when I used magic
on Caroline. I just wish there was a way I
could pay you back.
PIPER
Now that you mention it… maybe you can?
PAIGE
I can?
PIPER
Yes. You can tell me why you want to bring
Prue back. Leo's right. You've never even
met Prue and I don't buy that whole empowering
the Charmed circle thing. Why Paige? Why
would you of all people want to bring Prue back.
PAIGE
Well, at first I felt like I sorta' had
to live up to her. I have her power so I
should be able to take over for her at
least on the witch part. But then, the
more you guys talked about her the more
I knew that I could try to take over for
her but I could never replace her.
PIPER
Paige, it was never our intention to make
you feel like you had to live up to Prue.
We talked about her because we missed her,
not because we wanted to turn you into her.
PAIGE
I knew that. It's just… you guys have become
apart of me. And in some weird way, being
with you guys, living in the manor, hearing
about Prue, taking over Prue's power and
bedroom, it almost feels like she became
apart of me too. Like she was this buddy
I chatted with over the Internet for so many
years but never got around meeting.
PIPER
Paige, I'd be lying to you if I said I didn't
want to attempt this spell. And I can't speak
for Phoebe but I won't be mad at you if you
change your mind.
PAIGE
Really?
PIPER
Yeah. Prue is apart of all of us and you don't
need to bring her back to validate your role
in this family.
PAIGE
But that's not—
PIPER
Yes it is. You might not see it that way but
if you look deep down inside you know it's
the way you feel.
PAIGE
(blinking her eyes in embarrassment)
Okay, maybe you're right.
PIPER
Prue is our big sister. I couldn't take over
for her when I became the eldest and you
couldn't take over for her when you inherited
(MORE)
PIPER (cont'd)
her power. Destiny made you apart of this
family through the Charmed circle. But you
became our friend when we got to know you
and you became our sister when we began to
love you. And I know I speak for Phoebe as
well because she told me so herself. You are
our baby sister, we love you and that's never
ever going to change. And I'm sure I speak
for Prue on that note too.
PAIGE
Oh Piper.
Paige leans over and hugs Piper.
PAIGE
It means so much to hear you say that.
Paige sits back down.
PAIGE
But it's not just the validation thing in
why I'm doing this. Piper, every time we
vanquish a demon they keep on coming back
bigger, stronger, and scarier.
PIPER
No argument there.
PAIGE
They also have better infiltration time. We
vanquish the Source and barely a month
later, we have to vanquish the Source again
this time as our brother-in-law. What will
happen the next time someone even more powerful
than the Source gets through our front door
and we don't wake up in time to see his true motives.
PIPER
God, I don't even want to think about it.
PAIGE
Exactly. I began my research when I started
suspecting Cole after him and Phoebe's wedding.
(MORE)
PAIGE (cont'd)
Imagine if Ghede had the powers that came with
the Source mantle. He'd be unstoppable even for
us. We need Prue here to empower the Charmed
circle. To turn the power of three into the
power of four.
PIPER
You sound like Prue if she were here.
PAIGE
Yeah, well, Prue would be right.
PIPER
What about that fifty-fifty chance of losing
our powers? If this does work, we could be powerless.
PAIGE
I have faith that the plan will work and
in the detainment of our powers.
PIPER
How can you be so sure?
PAIGE
Because faith is all we have left. It's like
that time when you guys were transported back
in time on Halloween. You were able to make
the natural spells work because you had faith.
Knowledge must be in our heads and reverence
must be in our hearts in order for this plan
to work and with minimal consequences.
PIPER
We could use every edge. I just hope we can
do this without Ghede getting in the way.
Come on, we should get back to work.
ACT FOUR
INT. THE MANOR
Leo comes into the living room with a piece of paper while Phoebe searches through the Book of Shadows.
LEO
Okay. I figured out your pronunciations
to the best of my knowledge. This should
be an accurate translation of the spell.
Leo gives Phoebe the note.
PHOEBE
Let's see, "All who lay dead, all dead who
hear this, rise soulless through out this
night until withering takes it's toll and
befalls you". Well that doesn't make much
sense. Ghede brought to life corpses that
have been decaying for years. They're even
withering as they walk and that clearly
doesn't stop them.
LEO
We might be looking at this the wrong way.
Ghede might have used the power of All
Hollows Eve to give the zombies life. Just
like Paige is planning to use the same
powers to bring back Prue. Maybe the
withering of their bodies has been slowed
for them to rise up and will return to it's
normal rate once this night is over.
PHOEBE
In any case, some kind of decompiling potion
might work. Maybe a potion similar to the one
we made for Belthezor when we didn't know he
was Cole.
A loud knock is heard at the door. Phoebe and Leo answer the door to see Darryl standing on the doorstep almost out of breath.
PHOEBE
Darryl, oh my God, come in!
Darryl's clothes are ruffled and dirty and he has suffered a nasty gash on his four head. Phoebe escorts him into the living room and sits him on the sofa. She reaches for a bottled water on the coffee table and gives it to him.
DARRYL
Thanks.
PHOEBE
Darryl, what happened to you?
DARRYL
I had a nasty confrontation with the cast
of Night of the Living Dead.
PHOEBE
You ran into Ghede?
DARRYL
Tall zombie with red eyes and shades?
PHOEBE
That's the one.
LEO
Here, let me get that.
Leo's hands glow in a golden energy shine as the gash on Darryl's head fades away as if never there to begin with.
PHOEBE
How did you run into him?
DARRYL
He was after me because he said I reeked
of the Charmed Ones. I was able to escape
him and his zombie gang after a tight
struggle of cat and mouse.
PHOEBE
Oh, Darryl! You should know better by now that
guns and brute force are no match against
demons. (scuffs) Boys!
DARRYL
Actually I thought it would be.
PHOEBE
What are you talking about?
DARRYL
Well the way I figured it, zombies are just
lifeless human bodies. So they may be
susceptible to the same kind of injuries we
are. I shot one zombie and broke the neck
of another and even though they still got right
back up, for a moment, they were disabled.
With that I knew I could knock their leader
out long enough for me to get away.
PHOEBE
How were you able to knock out Ghede if he's
not a zombie?
LEO
Ghede may be a demon but he's still a spiritual
entity. It could be that his physical form may
be susceptible to the same limitations as we
are while on this plain.
PHOEBE
Great. So all we need now is a spell to get
rid of him and his zombies. The withering part is
the key.
DARRYL
Withering? You mean like Ghede's power.
PHOEBE
What?
DARRYL
When I was at the bay, I was on an undercover
assignment. Ghede killed the man I was suppose
to arrest by withering his body and sucking out
his spirit. Then, when I cornered him, I slammed
his hand on a rock just as he was about to shoot
some black energy at me and it hit one of the
zombies instead. It withered up and dropped
like a burned leaf.
PHOEBE
Of course! I am such a retard. Dead bodies keep
on withering 'til they turn to dust. The
zombies will be useless to Ghede once
their at the point of rotting beyond repair.
No matter how powerful he is, he can't
stop the laws of nature. A simple spell
can work now. Darryl, you just saved the day.
Phoebe leans over and hugs him.
DARRYL
Great. Now all I need is a vacation.
CUT TO:
INT. P3- MAIN CLUB FLOOR
The club is packed with enthusiastic club goers all dressed in their Halloween costumes. Paige then gets up on the stage.
PAIGE
It is my greatest pleasure to introduce
such established musical guest to play
at this Halloween benefit for Domestic
Violence Awareness. Only you can make
a difference. And now without further
a due, I give you, D.C. Talk!
The crowd cheers as Paige exits the stage and the curtains pull up revealing D.C. Talk as the music begins. D.C. Talk begins to play their hit single "Consume Me" and the crowd gets into it. Paige and Piper exchange smiles as the benefit goes to plan. Paige's cell phone rings at 1:43 min. and she goes to the back to answer it.
PAIGE
Hello?
PHOEBE (o.s.)
Hey it's me.
CUT TO:
INT. THE MANOR- THE ATTIC
PHOEBE
Hey, things sound like their going great
over there.
PAIGE (o.s.)
Yeah, things really came together.
PHOEBE
I don't mean to interrupt your fun sweetie
but we're gonna need you guys over here
soon. Ghede is very well on his way over
here and its 11:35PM so if we're gonna make
the spell work--
CUT TO:
P3- BACK ROOM
PAIGE
Yeah, I know the drill. I'll grab Piper and
we'll head on over there.
CUT TO:
PHOEBE
See you then.
Phoebe hangs up her cell phone and turns to Leo.
LEO
You guys are really gonna go through with
this aren't you?
PHOEBE
We have to Leo. She's our sister.
LEO
I'm done trying to talk you out of it. Just…
be careful.
The manor trembles in a slight vibration as the lights flicker off.
PHOEBE
Could Darryl have flipped a fuse?
LEO
He left over 15 minutes ago.
PHOEBE
Of course. Who else could it be.
CUT TO:
INT. DOWNSTAIRS
Phoebe and Leo make their way down the staircase with only the moonlight shining through the windows as their source of sight through the darkness. As they near the entrance to the front door, two zombies jump Phoebe and Leo and turn them toward Ghede.
GHEDE
This was almost too easy. So easy that I
hardly feel like killing you.
PHOEBE
That's a good feeling. You should act on it.
GHEDE
Ha, ha, ha, ha. I'm going to kill you
alright, there's just this part of me
that's gratified to see myself rise up
to supremacy. The realm of Hell was misused.
The Sources before me were sloppy. But now
as the Source, I can make then use evil in
whatever I choose.
Ghede's hand lights up with black energy.
GHEDE
And now its time for you to die.
Leo orbs out of the zombies grasp and materializes behind Ghede and puts him in a bear hug.
LEO
Now Phoebe!!
As Ghede struggles to get Leo off his back, Phoebe butts the zombie holding her with the back of her head in his face. She kicks then right hooks the zombie that Leo escaped from in the face and elbows the other zombie she butted before in its nose. She takes out two small bottles with potion liquid inside and throws them on the zombies. The zombies let out a demonic cry as a neon green mist exits out their mouths and their bodies shrivel up into black dust.
Ghede knocks Leo off his back and gives him a right hand cross punch to his face knocking him out. As his hand glows with black energy, Phoebe does a quick cartwheel that slapped both her feet across Ghede's face. Phoebe then kicks Ghede in his stomach then face, backhands him across the face and palm punches him up his chin twice.
Ghede gives Phoebe a sharp right hook across her face and makes his right hand glow with black energy as he attempts to touch Phoebe. Phoebe blocks his right hand with her wrist while holding his left wrist with her hand. She manages to head butt Ghede in his face and kicks him in the groin.
Suddenly, Ghede's body blows outward from within, a black web of black electricity emanating from a black energy ball in the center of his chest pulls the pieces of his body back into place. Phoebe spin kicks him in the face and sweeps him off his feet and onto the floor.
As Ghede falls, Piper and Paige are revealed standing in back of him. Phoebe runs over to them.
PHOEBE
Quick, say this spell with me to vanquish
his body from this plain.
AD LIB
Ashes to ashes and dust-to-dust, by the words
of this spell you will combust. Demon spirit
of death be gone from our sight and ears for
your time here is over until the next Hallow year.
Ghede's body begins to spin as red flames engulf his body. His body then explodes in an orange burst and Piper, Phoebe, and Paige dunk from a flaming skull exiting the manor as it breaks through the front door.
PHOEBE
What now?
PAIGE
We do the Spell before it's too late.
Piper and Phoebe follow Paige.
CUT TO:
EXT. THE BACKYARD
PIPER
Here in the backyard?
PAIGE
Yeah. Remember, the manor stands on sacred
ground in the center of the battle between
good and evil. Now Piper, I want you to
concentrate. Aim your exploding power at
the empty space of this outside. Remember
unseen forces hold the space that fills the
sky and air together. Puncture this space
so that we can have access to the currently
unseen space. Then freeze the puncture right
after it's open.
Piper closes her eyes and takes a deep breath as she concentrates. As if in reflex, she opens her fist and punctures the space between space and freezes the bright orange-yellow puncture after its opening.
PIPER
Oh my God it actually worked!
PAIGE
It won't hold for long. Quick say this spell
with me.
PHOEBE
Wait! What about Mom and Grams, can't we
bring them back too?
PAIGE
I'm afraid not. Mom and Grams both died natural
deaths so nature and the supernatural will
absolutely forbid their return. Besides, once
your dead for more than two years, you could
forget about ever coming back. Natural or
unnatural death. Now hurry.
Phoebe stands in the middle as she puts her arms around Piper and Paige's waits while Piper's right hand and Paige's left hand hold the sides of the paper.
AD LIB
Hear now the words of the witches, the
plea we cry out in this 'tween time. In
this most mystical hour, we call on the
ancient power. Hear these words, hear our
cry, powers of the witches rise. Prudence,
Patricia, Penelope, Melinda, Ashley, Helen,
Laura, and Grace, aid us in morphing the
mystic space, to near a spirit to the call
of the human race. Set a course across the
skies for our fallen sister to come to life,
to cross the great divide and settle on our
side of light. Beloved spirit with death's
unease, remove the chains of deaths
boundaries. Rest eternal nevermore and take
place here in physical form, in this plain,
just as before. Three in union stand agreed
let the power of three set you free.
With that last word Paige throws a brown pouch containing her ingredients, including Prue's lock of hair, at the frozen puncture. As soon as the pouch hits the frozen puncture, the puncture explodes into a bright white doorway as it knocks the sisters to the ground. The sisters get up. Piper and Phoebe look at the doorway with caution but Paige looks at it with an enthusiastic smile.
PAIGE
It's working.
The doorway then sends out a think red lighting surge. The sisters dunk and the surge hits a bush in back of them lighting it on fire. A gray energy stain stains the portal in one part. The stain begins to spread through out the doorway.
PAIGE
It's Ghede. He's trying to stop us.
PHOEBE
No!
Paige looks at her sisters in contemplation.
PAIGE
Don't worry, my white lighter powers
will protect me.
Paige dematerializes in bright blue and white energy beams and goes into the portal.
PIPER
Paige, no!
CUT TO:
INT. THE ASTRAL PLAIN
Paige materializes in a place that's nothing but one huge gray mist. A red lighting bolt darts past her. She looks front and sees Ghede swarming with red lighting bolts. Paige holds up both her hands aiming at Ghede.
PAIGE
Reseed!
A glowing blue and white energy beam floats out her hands and binds Ghede. As it does, his body slowly begins to decompile.
PAIGE
Prue! Go, the way is clear.
Three white lights in the shape of stars rotate around each other as they exit through an open doorway.
CUT TO:
EXT. MANOR- THE BACKYARD
Piper and Phoebe stay staring at the portal. But then, a zombie jumps them from behind. As they struggle, they don't notice a surging rippling effect in the portal as a body materializes. The body then comes into the yard. Prue has been reborn into the living. Dressed in a white gown.
PRUE
Hey, shouldn't you be rotting in a graveyard somewhere.
Prue flicks her wrist and throws the zombie into the burning bush. The zombie lights up like paper and burns to a crisp. Piper and Phoebe slowly get up and approach Prue with tears streaming down their faces at this most miraculous site.
PIPER
(voice cracking)
Prue…
Prue goes and embraces her sisters in an emotional hug. The portal then closes. They all look back in shock.
PRUE
What a minute. Where's Paige?!
All three begin to call out for her as they look around the yard. Suddenly, a light explodes in the air as Paige falls out of the light and into the yards grass.
PIPER
Paige!
The sisters all kneel down at her unconscious body. Phoebe puts her index finger on her neck.
PHOEBE
Her pulse is faint!
PIPER
Quick, call an ambulance!
Phoebe exits the yard while Prue and Piper call out to Paige.
Fade Out.
