Author's Note: I bet you're dieing to see if Jason lives. Let me tell you
that Jason's plane crash may be remarkably similar to the oil tanker
sinking that happened off of the coast of Maryland/Virginia this past week.
I do believe there were 5 or 6 survivors, 2 dead, and 18 missing. My heart
goes out to the families of the missing and dead.

Peggy's eyes widen and her jaw drops. "He's WHERE?! I'LL KILL HIM!!!"
Lizzie and Risa cut her off as she heads to the door. They grab both of her arms in an attempt to hold her back.
"Margaret Ann, SIT DOWN!!" Phoebe's voice echoed throughout the room, causing everyone to become silent and Peggy to stop struggling. "Leo, can you orb me to the manor so that I can knock some sense into my son... Peggy, before you even ask, no you can't come." _____________________________________________________________
Leo and Phoebe orb into the attic and find Parker looking through the Book of Shadows.
"You can't take me. I won't let you."
"Leo, can you please excuse us?"
"Sure, call me when you're ready." He orbs back to join the others at the manor.
"Parker, honey, what are you doing here?"
"I'm looking for a spell in the Book of Shadows."
"What type of spell, maybe I know where it is."
"The spell to call a lost witch."
"You're looking for a witch?"
"No, if I substitute the word 'witch' for 'father' it might bring Dad back."
"Honey, that won't bring him back."
Parker slams the book shut in frustration. "DAMN IT, WHY NOT?!"
"He's not a magical being. He has no magic in him, so magic can't find him."
"So, what are we going to do?"
"Hope that he can swim."
"Mom, I don't need to laugh right now."
"I wasn't trying to make you laugh. Are you ready to go home now?"
"I guess. Is Risa there?"
"Of coarse. Why?"
"'Cause I know she's 'gonna kick my ass."
Phoebe gets the first smile she's had all night. "Yea, but if she's too angry Piper might be able to freeze her."
"Let's hope so."
"LEO! WE'RE READY TO COME HOME NOW!"
Leo orbs in and holds out both of his hands. "Let's go."

When Leo, Phoebe, and Parker orb in, they find everyone sitting down with their eyes glued to the television. Phoebe finally opens her mouth to say something after watching in awe. "WHAT THE HELL! ..."
Risa turns around and doesn't even notice that Parker is standing within punching distance. "CNN is covering Dad's plane crash. Apparently, the American Ambassador to France was on the plane too."
Lizzie interrupts Risa. "So far there is one survivor and two dead. None of them are Jason, but the rescue team is still looking."
Phoebe walks over and sits between Paige and Piper. "Well, at least there's hope."
Just then a news update flashed across the screen. One of the stage personnel walked onto the set and handed the news anchorwoman some papers. "It appears that the rescue mission team has found an inflatable escape boat with five passengers. The coast guard is now taking the five survivors to a nearby hospital to be treated for hypothermia."
The phone starts ringing and Phoebe jumps up to answer it. "Hello?"
"Is Phoebe Halliwell there?"
"I'm Phoebe Halliwell."
"Well Mrs. Halliwell, I've called to tell you that you're husband was in a plane crash, but we have rescued him." Phoebe's eyes swell with tears as the man on the phone continues. "He's at the local hospital and has been checked for injuries. Miraculously, he doesn't have a single injury except for a couple of scratches."
"Can you please tell him that I am taking the next plane out to see him?"
"Sure. You know, you and your husband are very lucky."
"Yes, I guess we are. Thanks for calling." Phoebe hangs up the phone and turns around to see everyone staring at her in anticipation. "He's ok."
____________________________________________________________________
The man who just talked to Phoebe hangs up the phone and turns to Jason who's tied up and gagged. "Your witch is coming. When she gets here I will kill her, eliminating one group of Charmed Ones."
Jason's eyes widen, then he squints them. He concentrates and hopes that Phoebe can sense his fear for her life.
____________________________________________________________________
Phoebe bends over clenching her fist at her heart.
Peggy gets a look of worry on her face. "Mom, what's wrong?"
"It's Jason. He's afraid I'm going to die."
"What?!" Piper is in shock and confused. "Why?"
"A demon's got him, and he's using him to lour me to him."
Page gets a look of satisfaction on her face. "He obviously doesn't know of your powers."
"And he doesn't know that Jason's love for me also links him to my powers and allows him to have me feel what he feels."
"So, what are you going to go?"
"I'm still going."
"Are you CRAZY?!!!"
"No, you guys come with me. Piper can blow him up, and if that doesn't work, we use the 'Power of Three' spell."

The sisters orbed in, but there was no demon. The only person who was there was Jason and he was frozen. Phoebe walked over and shook him out of it. "Jason, what happened?"
"I don't really know, it was all a blur."
"Can you tell us what you remember?"
"Three girls orbed in and one of them flickered her hands, like Piper does when she freezes someone. She must have frozen me because the next thing I remember is you shaking me awake."
Paige looks down and realizes that she and Piper are standing in splattered demon guts. "Well, someone must have blown up the demon."
Phoebe gets a confused look on her face, still unaware of the remains on the ground. "How do you know?"
Piper looks down at her feet and jumps back. "EWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!"
"Oh, well that explains it, but who could have done that to the demon if Piper's the only one who can blow things up?"
Paige gets an idea. "Phoebe you stay here with Jason. I have to take Piper to the manor for a minute."
"Ok, but don't be gone for too long."

Paige and Piper orb into the attic.
"Paige, why do we need to be here?"
"Have you noticed anything missing lately?"
"What do you mean?"
"I was here a couple of days ago talking with you about the menu for the dinner party, and I noticed that a couple of plants that were up here were missing."
Piper catches on to what Paige is thinking and storms off down stairs.
"Where are you going?"
"To check my daughters room for some flower pots."
When Paige catches up to Piper she finds her in Lizzie's room looking under the bed. She walks over, bends down, and checks it out with her sister. "UH-OH!"
"DAMN RIGHT UH-OH!" Piper is furious to find scorched flowerpots under her daughter's bed. "THOSE FLOWER POTS COSTED ME A FORTUNE!"
Paige grabs Piper's arm before she has the chance to blow up Lizzie's bed. "Let's go get Phoebe and Jason."
