Together Forever As One
Chapter 22: There Is Nothing To Fear, Except Fear Himself

Leo orbed everyone into the attic of the Halliwell Manor. "Phiona, we need to reverse this!" Leo said.

"But how, daddy?" Phiona asked, in confusion.

"A spell. Sweetie, you need to cast a spell." Leo answered.

"But isn't that Barbus dude really super powerful?" Phiona asked.

Leo nodded.

"Then I need Pearl and Pam too." Phiona stated.

"Look, I'll be right back...." Leo said. He closed his eyes, sensing for Pearl, then he opened his eyes again. "Got her!" He whispered, then orbed out.

Phiona tapped her foot and stared at the ceiling. "Where ever you are, Barbus, we'll vanquish you!" She yelled.

Leo orbed back in, followed by Paige.

"Hurry!" Leo said, as he motioned towards Phiona.

Pearl ran to her cousin. "Something is wrong with mommy...." She whispered, so only her cousin could hear her.

"I know." Phiona replied. She pulled Pearl over to Prue, who was still rambling about people trying to kill her child.

"We'll need the three of us to undo the curse on Pam." Phiona said.

"What curse?" Pearl asked.

"I'll explain when things are right. Place your hand on Aunt Prue's tummy and then take my free hand. Like we did when Pam wasn't born yet." Phiona said, as she placed her hand on her Aunt Prue's stomach.

Pearl placed her hand on Prue's stomach as well, then took Phiona's free hand. "Now what?" She asked.

"I think I've got a spell. Just repeat after me....We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Phiona recited.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl repeated, after her cousin.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl and Phiona chanted in unison.

Suddenly golden lights surrounded Pam and then shot into her chest.

Pam stopped crying and stared at everyone. "What..what going on?" She asked, in confusion.

Leo walked over to Pam and pulled her from Phoebe's grasp. He walked over to Pearl and Phiona, then sat her down.

"Take our hands!" Pearl and Phiona said, in unison. The 2 cousins broke their link.

Pam nodded and took Pearl and Phiona's free hands.

"Now focus on Aunt Phoebe." Pearl said.

"Okay.." Phiona said.

"Mommy? Why?" Pam asked.

"Because, we have to fix them!" Phiona replied.

"Now repeat after us...." Pearl said.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl and Phiona recited in unison.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pam repeated after her cousins.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl, Phiona, and Pam chanted in unison.

Golden lights swirled around Phoebe and then shot into her body. Her eyes burst open and she looked around. "Where am I? What happened?" Phoebe asked.

"Aunt Paige now!" Phiona said.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl, Phiona, and Pam chanted in unison.

Golden lights swirled around Paige and then shot into her body. Paige looked at Leo. "Leo....how'd I get here?" Paige asked.

"Auntie Prue!" Pam said, as she looked at her Aunt Prue.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this witch and reverse this curse!" Pearl, Phiona, and Pam chanted in unison.

Golden lights swirled around Prue and then shot into her chest. "Whoa! Leo? Phoebe? How'd I get here?" She asked. She looked down at her nieces.

"We'll explain in a minute, Auntie Prue." Phiona stated.

"Uncle Cole isn't a witch, we need to change the spell for him." Pearl said.

"Just replace 'witch' with 'demon'. It doesn't sound as good, but it should work." Phiona replied.

"Got that, Pam?" Pearl asked.

Pam nodded in response.

"We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this demon and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this demon and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this demon and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this demon and reverse this curse!" Pearl, Phiona, and Pam chanted in unison.

Golden lights swirled around Cole and then shot into his chest. He looked around. "Pam? Oh no...I have a feeling that something didn't go as planned, did it?" He asked.

Phiona tried to stand tall. "Damn straight!" She said.

"Phiona!" Leo shouted.

"What? Auntie Paige says it!" Phiona defended, as she placed her hands on her hips.

Leo shot a glare at Paige.

"What? I'm a grown woman!" Paige defended.

Leo shook his head. "Okay. The Cliff Notes version; Barbus is back and he hit you with your worst fears. They...." Leo stated, as he pointed to cousins to emphasize his point. "...used their powers as the Blessed Ones to reverse Barbus' magic." He finished. He glanced at the occupants of the room. "What do you remember?" He asked.

"Glenn and I had a fight, about him being gone so much." Paige said. "Oh my God! I have to find him!" She exclaimed.

"Paige! We need you!" Leo countered.

"And I need Glenn!" Paige protested.

"You don't know how dangerous Barbus is!" Leo said.

"All the more reason to have a clear head for the battle, I'm guessing there will be a battle, which means I need to set the record straight with Glenn!" Paige said, in a tone that meant her decision was final. She closed her eyes, sensing for Glenn. Moments later she opened her eyes. "I'll be back in a few." She said, then she orbed out.

"And we need to get back to the photo shoot!" Phoebe gasped, as she narrowed her eyes at Prue. "I'm sure this has been over five minutes...." She muttered.

"Crap!" Prue hissed. She grabbed Phoebe's arm. "Leo, orb us back." She stated.

"Prue! Phoebe!" Leo complained.

"We know the seriousness of the matter, Leo! But we can't risk exposure!" Phoebe countered.

"I know what you're thinking Leo, but just trust us!" Prue said.

"How do you know what I'm th..." Leo began, but his voice trailed off. 'Oh yeah, the baby.' He thought. "Girls, I'll be right back." Leo said. He walked over to Prue and took her arm, orbing them out.

Cole glanced at his daughter and nieces. "Well?" He asked.

"Well what?" Phiona questioned.

Cole shook his head, walked over to Pam, and scooped her into his arms. "We need a plan. Any ideas?" He asked.

"We kick some demonic ass?" Pearl suggested, trying to sound like her Aunt Phoebe.

"Hey now, if you're parents heard you...." Cole warned. He locked eyes with his niece. "We don't need a mini Phoebe." He said, then began to pace around the room.

Leo orbed back in. "We need to find Piper, she's been infected too, by Barbus' magic." He said.

"You should take Paige to get her. She might freeze you." Cole said.

Or blow me up. Leo thought. "Good point." Leo responded.

Without warning, Barbus flared into the center of the room.

"Barbus." Cole hissed.

"Balthezor. How nice to see you." Barbus said, in a snake-like tone.

"Since when did you get the power to flare?" Cole asked.

"Oh, why so curious?" Barbus asked. He grinned and then a fire ball appeared in his palm. "Oh look what we have here?" He said, with a cackle. He hurled the fire ball towards Cole and Pam.

Cole held out his hand, creating an energy ball, and hurled it straight into the fire ball; causing both the energy ball and fire ball to explode each other, without harming anyone else.

Pearl held out her hand, creating a ball of glowing white light. She thrust it at Barbus. "You're a dirty demon!" She yelled, as the ball of light smashed into Barbus' arm.

A chunck of Barbus' flesh fell to the ground in a bloody heap and Barbus winced in pain. "Ahh! Damn witches!" He roared. He eyes Pearl and waved his hand, telekinetically sending Pearl crashing at the wall.

Pearl crashed into the wall and slumped to the floor, as blood dripped from her head.

"Pearl!" Leo yelled.

Phiona waved her hands and a blast of orbs shot from her palms, hitting Barbus right in the back, and sent him crashing into the wall; then the orbs vanished.

Leo dashed towards Pearl.

Barbus stood up and created another fire ball, then threw it at Leo.

Leo was hit in the back by the fire ball and exploded into a flurry of orbs, then the orbs reformed into Leo. He winced. He couldn't die from a fire ball, but it still hurt. He made his way to Pearl and kneeled down next to his niece, placed his hands over her wound, and then a golden light began to glow from his hands.

Barbus stared at Phiona and then flared out, only to flare in, right in front of Phiona. "You think you're smart, don't ya?" He asked, as he turned his head to one side.

Pam clenched her small fist and shimmered out of her father's arms.

Pam! Cole thought, as he held out his hand, making an energy ball.

Pam shimmered in, inbetween Barbus and Phiona. "She is smawt, unwike you!" She said, as she stared into Barbus' eyes. Then she quickly kicked Barbus in the leg, grabbed Phiona's hand, and shimmered them out.

Pearl opened her eyes and she grabbed onto her Uncle Leo's arm. "Phiona! Pam!" She yelled.

"They're okay!" Leo said, as he helped Pearl to her feet.

Barbus faced Leo and Pearl, then he held out his hand.

Leo gripped Pearl's hand and orbed them out, just in time to miss a blast of fire from Barbus' hand.

Paige orbed back in, with her hand gripped tightly around Glenn's hand.

"Paige! You let me go this instant!" Glenn roared.

Paige blinked, as she saw Barbus. "Shhh!" She snapped.

Barbus spun around to face Paige and Glenn. "So, this is the first half breed?" He said, in a curious tone.

"You bastard!" Paige hissed. "Barbus!" She yelled. Barbus orbed out and then orbed in, flying into the wall.

Barbus smashed into the wall, then waved his hand, telekinetically sending Glenn crashing through the attic windows.

"Glenn!" Paige screamed. Instantly Glenn orbed out, mid fall, then orbed back in; next to Paige.

"I'll have my revenge." Barbus warned, then he flared out.

Pam shimmered herself and Phiona back into the room.

"Leo, heal Glenn! He got cut up from flying through the window!" Paige said, as she knelt down next to her husband and stoked his face.

Leo walked over to Glenn and knelt down, placing his hands over Glenn, then a golden light emitted from his hands. Within minutes, he had healed his brother-in-law. "Girls, we need you to do your spell on Uncle Glenn." He said, as he eyes his daughter and nieces.

Pearl, Phiona, and Pam formed a circle. "We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this mortal and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this mortal and reverse this curse! We summon the power of the Blessed Ones, to bless this mortal and reverse this curse!" Pearl, Phiona, and Pam chanted in unison.

Golden lights swirled around Glenn and then shot into his chest. He looked around. "Paige? What happened? Why am I here? The last thing I remember is fighting with you." He said, in a perplexed tone.

"It's okay, I'll explain later." Paige said, as she helped her husband to his feet.

"Daddy, are you going to find mommy?" Phiona asked.

Leo looked at Paige. "Yeah, Paige, come with me." He said.

Paige nodded. "Do you know where she is?" She asked.

Leo closed his eyes for a moment and then opened them again. "Now I do." He said.

Paige walked over to Leo and took his hand.

Leo orbed them out.

Cole and Glenn exchanged looks.

"Daddy.." Pam whispered, as she looked at her father.

"Yes, sweetheart?" Cole asked.

"I'm scared." Pam answered.
