Summary: Someone is placed to kill the next generation of Halliwells. But who? And how do they plan to do it and will they succeed? Read to find out then R&r.

"I have succeed in breaking the Charmed circle again." It was the new Source. His face is hidden in a robe.

"Congratulations, my lord." A green scaly demon with a red horn coming from the middle of its head bowed in front of his new leader. "What is it that is concerning you though?"

"The thing I am concerned about is the new generation of Halliwells. They have come to learn their powers quickly although the weak one is Kayla. She has not learned to control her power to levitate. She should be the link we need to break them up." He started pacing in his chamber. "The ones I am concerned about are the dead witch and whitelighter's children. Prudence has the power of deflection and has learned how to control and use it well. But Wyatt is the one I am most concerned with. He can sense us when we are close by. Even if we sneak in invisible I doubt if we can even get close enough to make an attack before he knows. As long as he is with them, they are all protected."

The demon lifted his head up slightly. "What if we can get them alone? Wouldn't they be vulnerable to an attack."

"Yes but Phoebe and the whitelighter will never let them out of their magical sights. They are too protective. They now know the Underworld has reformed and will be extra cautious." He came up with an idea. "But they can't protect them in their dreams now can they? That is the only vulnerable place."

"So we attack them in their dreams?"

"Yes. We will corrupt their dreams, they will never want to sleep again. They will be vulnerable. Their powers weakened with that their spirits and strength." An evil, unknown smile crept across his face. "We must get to work."

Piper and Paige had returned back to where they had come from. Before they went though they made taught Kayla how to control her power to where she wouldn't knock herself out but she hasn't all the way learned to control it. When she gets scared she immediately levitates, like Paige expect she orbed which was smarter. Phoebe figured out how to activate her new power, Air kinesis. She could mentally blow a force of wind from the palms of her hands. At first she could only send out mildly strong gusts but she has learned to create smaller and larger ones. One of them was so strong that it blew out part of the wall in the sunroom and all the windows too. Everyone was sad to see Piper and Paige leave but knew it was temporary and let them go. Now that Kayla was 14 she started acting like she was tough sh!t around the manor and started skipping classes with her friends. When the school found out they called in Phoebe for a conference.

"Ms. Halliwell, we have recently found out that your niece here has been skipping classes the past few weeks, being rude to authority figures, and creating disruptions in the hallways between classes."

"Yes, you just told us that over the phone." Phoebe couldn't stand when people repeated themselves. Kayla reminded her of herself when she was her age. The principal always repeated themselves like they were a stuck record. It was one of her pet peeves. Kayla's principal was a lady, maybe in her mid-40's or 50's. She had her hair in a tight bun and was wearing a tight black suit. She reminded Phoebe of her old principal so much she couldn't help but wonder if she was actually her old principal but she kept her thoughts to herself.

"I know that Kayla's mother died recently but that shouldn't be an excuse. I am sorry we are going to have to give her a 3-day suspension. If her behavior doesn't improve by then , I don't know think she can continue to come to school."

Phoebe couldn't believe how stupid the school system still was. "You're giving her 3 days off of school? Isn't that what she wanted in the first place? Then if she gets worse then you're going to give her the whole year off? It's like giving her a Christmas present that lasts the whole year."

The principal eyes widened. "Well I guess we can figure something out." She thought for a moment. "Well I think about 5 weeks of work detentions should be in order for after school."

Kayla jumped up off of her chair. "Work detentions? All I did was skip class 2 times, ask the teacher what was the point of the work and she says I'm disrespecting her when it was a completely reasonable question, and this girl in the hall started bucking on me and I'm the only one getting punished for that when I didn't even start it. How can you punish me for that?"

"Well for one thing you jumped and kicked her in the face, giving her a black eye and broken nose and you asked the teacher why you had to do this fu@king work. I think I'm being easy on you."

Kayla sat down and Phoebe turned to her niece. "Kayla Patricia Matthew Halliwell." Paige had her name legally changed when she realized that her child was going to be the only one named Matthew, but she decided to add Matthew so she could still pass on her adopted name.

Phoebe was shocked by how Kayla could take such advantage of her powers.

Kayla realized she was in trouble so she tried to defend herself. "What? She punched me in the face first. I'm not just going to stand their and let myself get beat up."

Phoebe shook her head. "We'll talk about this when we get home." She turned back to the principal once again. "5 weeks will be fine." Phoebe stood up and shook the principal's hand. "I assure you this won't happen again." As they walked out the office and into Phoebe's car they were absolutely quiet.

Phoebe pulled onto the main road and started yelling at Kayla. "How could you use your powers for personal gain? That was so immature and to injure another student. I thought you were the smart one."

"It wasn't my fault. She punched me. What was I going to do?"

"Punch her back without using your powers. I don't care if you defend yourself as long as you don't use your powers. Now I don't even know what kind of consequences you will face. All I know is that it's not going to be good."

When they got home they found Prudence on the sofa. Leo was trying to console her as she cried her heart. Obviously he wasn't doing to great of a job because whatever he just said made her sob even harder.

"Leo, What happened?"

"Some girls at school were teasing her because she accidentally let out that she was a witch and they asked her to show her some of her powers and she told them she couldn't because she would get in trouble. Then they started saying that she wasn't a witch, she was a B-I-T-C-H and told her that it was good for her that her mother died."

Phoebe went and put her arms around Prudence and told her "They were just teasing you. You know that right?" Prudence nodded. "No one deserves to have that happen to them. I was only 1 or 2 when my mother died. At least you got to know yours and just remember one thing."

"What's that?"

"That whenever you need your mother she will always be here." She looked at Kayla who was standing by the door, watching. "You too, Kayla. Your moms will always be here for you when you need them." Kayla just looked down. Knowing somewhere in that statement it wasn't all true.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Meanwhile the Source watched them.

"Excellent, their spirits are broken and now to break their powers."

The Source waved his hand in front of him and a woman dressed to kill appears. She has dark black hair pinned in a french braid and had on tight leather black pants with a tight black top showing a little to much belly and cleavage. To complete her killer look she had on black running shoes, close to Reeboks but the shoes shined and weren't name brand. She looked oddly familiar.

"What am I doing here?" She was panicking.

The Source grabbed her by the neck and forced her to look in his eyes, hypnotizing her . "You will help me kill the Halliwell children."

She tried to look away but couldn't. "No, I won't."

He leaned his face closer to hers. "Yes." He grabbed her neck tighter. "You will kill them, Prue." He released her.

"Yes, of course master." She bowed. He waved his head and a bag appeared in her hand.

"This is dream dust but a different kind. It will allow you to enter their dreams and turn their fantasies into their worse nightmares. If you fail me, I will surely deliver to you a punishment much greater than death. You already know what that is, don't you?"

She nodded and he dismissed her. Plans set in motion. Soon, he thought. Her nieces and nephew will be dead and I will make sure all of them know it was at her hands. An evil grin spread across his face. Soon they will be mine.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Prudence slept peacefully in her bed. Suddenly Evil Prue shimmers into her room. She takes out a red velvet pouch from her black leather jacket. She looked down at her peacefully sleeping niece. Thoughts coming from her head saying I can't do this. But her body was disobeying her. She slowly untied the drawstring and took a pinch of red dream dust and sprinkled it on Prudence's face. Her nose twitched but stopped and she fell into a deep, deep slumber. Evil Prue touches her nieces forehead and is snapped into Prudence's dream.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Prudence is dreaming of being in the attic and the demon that they vanquished is in front of her. He throws a energy ball at her. She raises her hand to deflect it. It hits the demon square in the chest. He bursts into flames. Now she's at school and the kids are surrounding her. They all turned into mini demons and were throwing mini energy balls left and right. She raises her hands to deflect all but one. It hits her on the back and she has a deep red gash. The red becomes the background the children and everything in between just as Evil Prue is snapped in.

This kid has some freaky dreams, she thought to the real Prue in the back of her head. She must get it from Piper.

Shut up and leave my niece and sister alone.

Yeah. Like you can do anything. Just shut the hell up and watch me destroy your her.

Evil Prue walked over to Prudence. She bent down to meet her eye to eye and put on a fake smile.

"Hello cutie. Ready to get out of here?" Prudence nodded.

No don't do it, Prue shouted from the inside. It was no use though.

Evil Prue grabbed Prudence's hand and they disappeared in a blink of an eye. They were at a funeral. It was Piper and Paige's.

"Now I'm going to show you how miserable you made your mother."

"Who are you?" Prudence was frightened.

"Your worst nightmare." Prudence tried to run but Evil Prue still had a grip on her.

"Look over there." Evil Prue said spitefully and pointed to a swirling vertex of images. Prudence watched, entrenched by the beautiful colors swirling till they became clear. First she sees an image of Piper laughing with Phoebe when they were children. Then an image of Piper and Prue when they were at high school and telling jokes to one another. One of all three having a food fight at the Manor, laughing hard. Another of Phoebe, Piper, and Prue standing in the front room, the light pouring from the ceiling, underneath the chandelier the night they received their powers. One of Piper and Prue making a potion. It explodes and goes everywhere and they start laughing. Then an image of Paige and Piper playing around. The image of the day Piper found out she was pregnant with Wyatt and how happy her, Phoebe, and Paige were. One of where Piper, Leo, and Paige were playing keep away with a magazine. Piper smiling and crying when she sees her new baby boy. Piper and Leo having fun at the beach with Wyatt when he was 2.

"See how happy she was before you came along? Now see what her life was like after you were born."

The vortex threw out images but they weren't as bright and cheerful. An image is thrown out of Piper finding out she was pregnant with Prudence. She was hysteric and confused. Piper and Leo trying to find a way to the hospital when Piper went into labor. Piper exhausted, holding a crying baby Prudence, crying right along with her. Piper jumping in front of Prudence and getting hit by an energy ball in the process, saving her daughters life while her own life hung in the balance. Piper and Phoebe trying to calm down Prudence when she was in tantrum mode at three. Piper crying when Prudence said she didn't love her. The image of Piper and Paige's funeral again.

"See, you made Piper miserable. You are the reason she died. Maybe it's good that your mother died. At least now she doesn't have to see you again."

With that she left Prudence to cry as she shimmered out of her dream and life.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

It was morning and Phoebe is talking to Leo with Kayla pouring herself a cup of coffee. It obviously runs in the family.

"What are we going to do about money? I mean who's going to run the club? I can't pay the bills with the money the magazine is paying me."

Phoebe was offered a job 3 years ago to work at a top magazine as an investigative journalist after she got her first assignment at the newspaper. She had caught one of the top corporations in the country = killing animals to clear ground for another site in California. When Elise found out she was angry at Phoebe for not sticking to the assignment she was given but when the paper was getting more subscribers and talked about nation wide she wasn't so eager to let Phoebe go but she replaced her and things were going fine and Phoebe was getting paid double.

"I guess when I'm free I can run the club and we can hire some new management to run it when one of us isn't there."

Kayla was listening to there conversation. "How come me and Wyatt can't help out some times?"

"Because it's a night club and you two have to go to school. Remember?"

"What about weekends?"

Leo cut in. "It couldn't hurt to have a little bit of help on the weekends. Friday and Saturday are our busiest nights."

"I don't know. They are a little young."

Kayla knew her aunt was about to give in so she threw in the only thing her aunt needed to agree.

"It would teach us responsibility. I would probably be a better student if I knew the fashions of hard work and respect how much the teachers sacrifice for us." She put on her innocent look.

"Fine but you can't work past 1and no sneaking friends in or liquor out." Phoebe always had a weak spot for Kayla. How could she really say no?

"Deal." They shook hands and laughed as Prudence walked in. She had dark circles under her eyes and her hair was messy from tossing in her sleep.

"Oh, you're having fun. I'll come back later." She turned to walk out but Leo jumped up and walked to catch up with his obviously upset daughter.

"Sweetie, what's wrong?" He pushed her around and pointed his finger to a stool, motioning for her to sit. Prudence jumped on the stool.

"Nothing, I just don't want to be in everyone's way. I know you all don't really want me around. I would just spoil your fun."

Phoebe took Prudence's hand. "Where would you get such a silly idea like that?"

"Just a hunch."

"Well don't think like that. We love you and wouldn't trade you in for anything in the world."

Phoebe had a flashback. She remembered when Paige had been possessed by a demon once and suddenly evolved a gambling addiction and traded in a 4 year old Wyatt, 1 year old Kayla, and a 3 month old Prudence for chips at a place called the Devil's Casino. Boy did Piper and Phoebe have a hard time getting the kids back. Phoebe accidentally projected this to where everyone could see it. Her powers had grown a few years ago and allowed her to project her thoughts. She had control o it most of the time but sometimes they slipped out at the worst moments.

"Oops." Phoebe had just realized what happened when Kayla went "What?"

"Phoebe!" Leo shook his head as he sat down on a stool. Kayla and Prudence had their mouths hanging open.

Phoebe tried to explain. "She was possessed and plus we got you all back. Luckily we did they were about to sell all of your powers to this slimy lower level demon." Kayla and Prudence rolled their eyes. That's not that good of an excuse to them.

Prudence walked out with Kayla not far behind with a cup of half drake coffee and a cinnamon bun on a plate.

"Look don't worry about them. They don't understand."

"And what? You do."

"Well if you tell me I might."

"How would you know? Your mother liked you."

"And yours didn't?"

"See you don't get it." Prudence started to walk away but Kayla orbed in front of her.

"We need to talk."

"No, we don't." She orbed behind Kayla and started walking up the stairs. Kayla followed and orbed on the top step.

"Look, I'm your cousin and you're like a sister to me. Why can't you tell me?" Prudence was getting aggravated.

"No you look. I don't have to tell you anything." With that she orbed away and out of Kayla's sights.

Kayla sighed and orbed back into the kitchen.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Evil Prue shimmered into the Source's chambers.

"Did you do it?"

"Yes but I only had time to go into Prudence's dream. Don't worry though. Her spirits are broken and she is using her powers for personal gain and to avoid her family. There will be consequences that will shake her up too but not without a little 'magical' assistance."

"Good." The Source was very pleased. "Next work on Kayla. There is only one thing that will break her heart and spirits. You know what that is don't you?"

"Yes, of course."

The Source waved her out and dismissed her. "Soon. They will be weak and there will be nothing to stop me from killing them. Not unless Prue fails but I know that won't happen." He smiled to himself. Soon he thought. I will resurface and rule the earth once more.

____________________________________________________________________________________________

Prudence had orbed into the bathroom. She felt dirty. Her thick brown hair was greasy and she decided that a shower would calm her nerves. She turned the shower on hot and let the steam fill up the room while she got her shower gel from under the sink. She opened it to smell it. It smelled like lavender. There was something about the smell she liked. It relaxed her and made her whole body feel like it was getting a rest.

"I definably need this after the past month."

She grabbed a towel and put it on the rack by the sink to rest till she was ready to come out. She took her clothes off and stepped into the shower. She poured some of her shower gel on her white puff. She lathered it all over her body and she dunked her head underneath the hot, steamy water and let it carry her away. She washed her hair and let the water run over her once more before it went cold.

"Damn." This time her mom wasn't there to correct her. She kind of missed it.

She got out the shower and wrapped the towel around her and orbed into her bedroom. She quickly got dressed. She put on dark blue flares with pink designs, a pink tank top, and some black Reeboks. She loved her black Reeboks. They were so comfy. She especially need them today. She had to face another day of boring 7th grade. She hated it. The kids were just as bad as the teachers. It was so aggravating. The only thing she liked was the boys. That was the only reason she went. She especially liked the Hispanics. She loved their dark skin and hair. If you weren't Hispanic or Asian you didn't have a chance. She was never really attracted to the white or black boys. She thought some of the blacks were cute but they didn't have a lot of hot white boys in the whole school. Maybe one or two but they were taken and they thought they were too good to go with her.

All well, she thought. She pinned her still damp hair into a clip and pulled a few pieces in front of face and made them go in waves. She took some gel and slack the top down and made the back that was clipped up a little frizzy but kept it wavy. She strayed some perfume on and orbed downstairs. Her mood was still a little down but the shower had relaxed her. But the words were still in her head.

See, you made Piper miserable. You are the reason she died. Maybe it's good that your mother died. At least now she doesn't have to see you again.

She sighed and orbed down to the front room. She grabbed her book sack.

"I'm leaving Aunt Phoebe!" She yelled before she orbed out.

"Wait!" Phoebe called but missed her as she watched the last orb disappear.

TBC: R&r. Tell who you think should be the next target. I'm thinking Kayla. What should her nightmare be about? If you have any ideas about anything then R&r. Thanks.
