"What the hell are we going to do?" Paige asked angrily. They were sitting in the Ally that Paige had orbed her and the baby to. Phoebe didn't have an answer. Never did she suspect a demon to disguise as Prue. Paige caught on only cause she didn't love Prue, Phoebe did. She caught on a little, but never wanted to face the fact that she was a demon. "I can't believe we gave up our powers to evil! What the hell is the matter with you?"
"Paige, there is no use fighting over it now. We still have your whitelighter powers. We need to think of a solution."
"Get Piper's ass down here! There, thought of a solution." Phoebe looked at her. "What this isn't a good enough reason to intrude on their love making?" Wyatt started crying. "He even knows we are in serious shit!"
"So that's what Meallan was after all along; our powers. He never wanted to kill us. If he did he wouldn't have." Phoebe said changing the diaper of Wyatt. "With our powers, he will have no contest on becoming the new Source."
"Great! Add more fuel to the flame." Paige said. "Why don't we concentrate on what we can do?" Paige said mocking Phoebe. "Wait there is nothing we can do!"
"Paige you are not helping at all!"
"Well we need Piper! She's the only one that has powers! I think I'm helping out by telling you that we need Piper."
"Then get her Paige." Phoebe told her hastily. Paige face turned upside down in sadness.
"I all ready tried."
"I didn't think you could continental orb. What we need is a 'Plan B'"
"Yeah, I was thinking we needed one of those too," Paige sarcastically said. "The questioned what the hell is 'Plan B' going to be when we don't have the power of three?"
"Paige! I'm trying to figure it out. It's not easy being the eldest one."
"Phoebe we are going through this off of your own stupidity."
"Paige!"
"Phoebe!"
"Paige! I don't see you helping at all. I need some help with this. Are you going to give it to me or not?"
"What the hell can we do?" Paige asked.
"We need to get back to the manor." Phoebe said. "We can at least use potions. I think I can remember an explosion potion of some sort."
"Great! Now we're going somewhere." Paige knew that this was just a push, they had to do the rest. It wasn't going to be easy considering the demon took over their house, but maybe he's in the attic. Maybe he won't come downstairs so that they can I have the kitchen.
Paige orbed them to the Kitchen. No one was there, although they can still hear Meallan upstairs. "Phoebe, we have a problem."
"What is it?" Phoebe asked searching through the cupboards.
"How we suppose to make a potion when we don't have a book of directions. I have a horrible memory. I don't remember any potion since I do so many of them."
"Damn it Paige!" Phoebe said angrily. "Then why the hell did we come here if we can't remember a potion recipe?" Suddenly she flew backwards from a energyball thrown by Meallan.
"Knew you'd be back." Meallan crackled in delight. "Am I actually going to vanquish the charmed ones and their baby?" At this Wyatt's shield formed around him. "Just the charmed ones I guess." Fireball formed in his hand, "you guys got to ask yourselves one question; Do you feel lucky?" He lobbed it at Phoebe, which Paige acted on her instincts and jumped on her to orb her out. She orbed them to the attic.
"Phoebe are you all right?"
"I'll live. Quick look at the book."
"I know what Meallan wants. He wants Cole back. That's what he was looking at when he was Prue. See." She pointed to the page the book was on; it was Cole.
"He wants our powers to resurrect my dead husband? That can't happened cause I'm with Jason now." Phoebe said. "What we do need is a plan to vanquish him before he comes up here. Quickly look."
"Phoebe I looked all ready through this thing. There is nothing here. We need the power of three, or at least Piper's exploding power." The bottle of potion laying on the stand crossed her eyes. "We could use what Prue came up with. It might work; Prue said it did this to the wall."
"Or it could have just been Meallan." Phoebe added. The door flew open with a force as if Phoebe walked through it.
"How did I guess you'd be here?" Meallan questioned.
"Ah, Phoebe do you have a better idea."
"It will be painless; simple as a snap of my fingers. Just don't make me fight for it when all it is, is futile." The fireball formed in his hand.
"Wait!" Phoebe shouted. "Before you do kill us, I just want to know one thing. Why Cole? Why bring him back."
"Why do you want to know?"
"Yeah Phoebe, why you want to know?"
"We're going to die anyway."
"Higher power always wins. That's all that needs to be told." Meallan raised his hand up. "You vanquished a lot of evil you three. The Source three times. Now it's time for you to feel the pain of every demon you ever vanquished. Enjoy, I know I will." Phoebe threw the potion at him. Meallan started gaging, and their powers were the result of that.
"It looks like that potion wasn't explosion after all."
"Yeah it's saves us the mess of demon guts." Paige said jokingly. "Fireball!" she sent it back to Meallan. He vanquished in flames.
"Shit!" Phoebe said. "I can't believe we actually vanquished him without Piper."
"I can't believe we aren't dead." Paige said sarcastically. "Phoebe, I swear if you ever put us through that I will vanquish you myself." Phoebe giggles. "I'm not joking." The two sisters walked out of the attic.
"I don't understand." Korelle said in front of Hades. "Meallan was our best demon so far. He would sure be able to take them on. With out a sacrifice, how we suppose to get the wasteland open again."
"We'll have our sacrifice." Hades said smiling. "Higher power always wins."
