Darien paced back and forth. "We need to get them alone, each one of them, and then take them, one by one. With our shapeshifting skills, we can pull this off, and kill them. But.."

"But what Darien?"

"These witches always find some way to win against evil. Power of three my ass...we have to break their bond. We have to break their hearts."

"What do you have planned?" Stephanos asked, going to sit down on a stool. Darien rubbed his chin for a short moment. "First, we take down the younger boy. The small, wimpy one. Just knock him unconscious and tie em up with the other ones."

"What about the older demonic one?"

"That's what I'm looking forward to. This demonic witch...he is becomes very powerful when he gets angry. I'm thinking, we'll spray some of our little magical powder on him, say a spell, he turns to our side, we use him to lour the others to our cave and then BAM!!" Darien banged his hand on the counter. "We kill them all, steal their powers, go back to the present, and we rule."

Stephanos smiled. "That's genius Darien." He said in total admiration. Darien lost his smile. "I just want to get back at these idiotic witches, and those idiotic warlocks at home. Stephanos, I want sweet revenge, and we have the perfect plan to get this...to do what no warlock, no demon, no source, not anyone has been able to do."

Stephanos glanced at Darien's worried/angry/sad face. 'Poor Darien. He's had it so far. Well I'm going to do everything in my power to get our revenge, for my brother, so he doesn't have to suffer like this.' He thought. Stephanos went over to Darien and held out a fist.

"Don't worry Darien. I promise we'll get our revenge. I'll try my best so we'll be happy once again." He said. Darien nodded, held out his fist, hit Stephanos' fist, and smiled a bit. The fist thing was like a handshake. That little smirk made Stephanos a feeling of satisfaction. Darien turned to look at Stephanos.

"First Stephanos, you take care of the small boy. I'll take care of the demonic one. You have to get the boy to talk with you, alone. Then, when you finally are, knock him out with something, and blink him back to the portal. After that, come quickly here, for I'll have the demonic one under my command already...we may have to fight so be ready." He said, putting his hand on Stephanos' shoulder.

Stephanos nodded as he listened to the plan. 'I won't fail. I can't fail. Everything's counting on me. I'm doing this for Darien's happiness. I have to repay him for all he's done with me." He thought. Then, Darien and Stephanos went separate ways.

Darien went up the stairs to go to the attic, to see if Piper and Phoebe could get some way to get CJ and Alex up from the basement. Stephanos went to wait in the sunroom, to wait if Alex would come up or somebody. Darien reached the attic and opened the door. Piper was on the couch sleeping, and Phoebe was still flipping through the Book of Shadows.

Darien slowly peeked through the door. Phoebe looked up from her reading. "Oh, hey Rachel. Is something bothering you?" she asked. Darien came into the room. "Oh, um, not really. Just thought that the others downstairs would like to come up, so we can discuss a plan to beat the warlocks. You think you could call them while I go to the bathroom really quick?"

"Uhhhhhh...sure." she said, getting up from her indian style sitting position. Before she left the attic, she checked over to Piper, spreading a blanket over her older sister. Darien rolled his eyes at the sensitivity, caring and emotions these good witches showed.

Phoebe walked out of the attic and the two walked down the stairs from the attic. Phoebe was just about to go down the stairs to call the guys from the basement when Darien called her. "Uh, Aunt Phoebe? Could you show me where the bathroom is?" he asked.

Phoebe gave a small laugh. "Oh yeah, sure..." She said as she led the say to the bathroom. When they got there, Phoebe looked at Rachel suspiciously. "Wait a minute, shouldn't you know where the bathroom is since you live here in the future?" Darien hesitated.

"Um..."

Phoebe glanced at Darien, and it looked like she noticed something was wrong. "Wait a minute..you're not..." she started but Darien punched her in the face, knocking her unconscious. Phoebe fell to the floor, and Darien took her arms, and dragged her inside the bathroom and left her there.

Darien closed the door silently, then took out a pouch from his pocket and splashed some powder onto the door. He muttered a few sayings in a dead language. He cast some kind of spell, to lock the door shut. He smiled to himself.

Stephanos was downstairs, sitting on the chair, thinking of how he would perform his task. Just then, Alex suddenly walked into the room. His hands were in his pockets, and his clothes were really dusty. Stephanos looked up. "Oh, Hi. Alex." He muttered.

Alex sat next to Stephanos. "Hey Aunt Paige. Can I talk to you about something?" Stephanos hesitated, thinking of what he would say next. "Um, sure. You ended training early?"

"Oh, I'm just taking a small break. I kicked Sam's ass in the last training combat anyway." He said, giving a small smirk. Stephanos gave a nervous, fake laugh. Alex stared straight ahead of him. "So anyway...Since I know you're the youngest sister and all, I was just wondering if you get, well, certain feelings."

"Like what?"

"Um, I know your parents died, you're left with your sisters to take care of you, kind of. And, don't you ever have like this urge, to....hmmm. It's hard to explain."

"Well, try to explain it."

"Your sisters, have done so much for you in the past years, that you just feel like you have to repay them somehow. You feel like, that since they are always under so much stress and stuff, you have to act as a servant kind of person, to try and do whatever they tell you to? If you know what I mean."

Stephanos knew exactly what he meant. He felt the exact same thing for Darien. He always felt that his older brother took care of him, even if he was only like 10 minutes older. He felt that he had to repay him someway..he couldn't explain it. "Yeah, I know what that feels like."

"Is it wrong to feel mad? That you have to do all these things? I don't know why, but sometimes I get mad at Sam. Sometimes she acts to overprotective, or she can boss me around a lot....And she gets mad, A LOT, about stupid things. She has a really short temper."

Stephanos felt hatred for Alex. Didn't he know that his sister was sacrificing so much for him? And this is a time where he feels selfish? "You shouldn't let that get to you. I'm sure your sister is just trying to protect you. You have to let them know that you love them. Show them that you care. It will repay in the end. Even if they do get mad sometimes, you gotta remember that they sacrificed everything for you. To raise you. And you have to make them as comfortable as possible."

Alex smiled and nodded. "Yeah, I guess so. I mean, I want to do everything in my power to like, make her feel as calm and comfortable and content as possible."

Stephanos nodded in agreement, until he looked straight ahead, and saw Darien walking down the stairs. Darien spotted Stephanos talking to Alex. Alex didn't see him, because he was looking down at the floor. Darien looked at Stephanos, and pounded his right hand fist into his left hand palm. In other words, Darien was telling Stephanos to take Alex out.

Stphanos nodded again. Alex was about to look up at Stephanos. "Thanks Aunt Paige."

"My pleasure." Stphanos said, before Stephanos hit Alex really hard in the neck, so that Alex would fall on the floor, unconscious. He looked up at Darien, and he saw that Darien was smiling at his process. Darien nodded to him and Stephanos smiled again.

Then Stephanos held Alex on his shoulder, and blinked out of the room to take him to the portal. Darien saw that he was gone, and walked to the entrance to the basement again.

'All is almost complete....All I need is you. CJ Turner...' Darien thought to himself, and laughed a small laugh out loud.
