PART THREE

INT. MANOR - FRONT DOOR - DAY

Paige enters the Manor without closing the door.

PAIGE: (yelling) Piper!

She looks into the sitting room. It is empty.

PAIGE (cont'd): Piper...Leo...someone!

She walks to the stairs and is about to climb them when Darryl and Inspector Sheridan walk in.

SHERIDAN: That was a lot easier than I thought it would be.

PAIGE: What do you want?

SHERIDAN: I know that you and your sisters are witches. And I also know you had something to do with Chris' escape from jail and disappearance. I will expose you.

Paige looks at Darryl. He looks away.

PAIGE: I don't know what you're talking about.

SHERIDAN: I think you do, Paige.

DARRYL: She clearly doesn't know where Chris is. I think we should just leave.

SHERIDAN: You're still covering for them like you've done in the past. I know you know more than you're telling, Morris. I should have you arrested too.

DARRYL: I'm not covering for anyone. I just think this is a big waste of our time. We've got other cases to worry about.

PAIGE: I really don't know anything. So if you don't mind, I have other things to do.

Leo walks into the Manor.

PAIGE (cont'd): Leo, thank God.

LEO: What's going on here?

PAIGE: The inspector here keeps accusing us of breaking Chris out of jail and hiding him somewhere.

SHERIDAN: And being witches.

LEO: That's just...ridiculous.

SHERIDAN: I'm going to give you one last chance to tell me where Chris is.

She waits. Neither Paige or Leo says anything.

SHERIDAN (cont'd): That's fine. Have it your way. I tried to do this the nice way, but I see that you're not willing to cooperate. I see I will have to get nasty.

DARRYL: What are you planning to do?

She responds by turning and walking out of the house.

PAIGE: Darryl...

DARRYL: I've gotta go.

He turns and leaves. Paige and Leo turn to each other.

PAIGE/LEO: We have a problem.

They look at each other, both waiting for the other to continue. Finally,...

LEO (cont'd): What's yours?

PAIGE: Pheobe is evil.

LEO: Wait? What? How'd that happen?

PAIGE: Your eldest son from the future came back, made her evil, and took her to hell.

LEO: Wyatt's still evil? I thought Chris changed that.

PAIGE: I guess there's some things you can't change, no matter how hard you try.

LEO: I just don't know where I went wrong.

PAIGE: Maybe it's not you. Maybe something happens to him in a few years.

LEO: Yeah! Anyway, he took Pheobe to hell? Why?

PAIGE: To save your other son, who Wyatt thinks isn't dead.

LEO: I...we saw him...

PAIGE: I know. And I don't get what's going on either. But all I do know is that we need to get Pheobe from hell and turn her back good.

LEO: I need to save my sons.

PAIGE: Leo.

Leo looks at Paige with a wild look in his eyes.

PAIGE (cont'd): Maybe they're just not meant to be saved.

LEO: I won't accept that. Where is Piper?

PAIGE: I don't know. I tried calling her, but no answer. So whats' your problem?

LEO: I've lost my powers.

PAIGE: That is a problem. How'd that happen?

LEO: It doesn't matter.

PAIGE: It doesn't matter?

LEO: What matters is finding Piper and rescuing Pheobe and my sons.

PAIGE: I don't know if we can rescue your sons, but I know what I can do about Pheobe. I have an idea for a potion. It won't take long.

LEO: Just hurry, okay.

Paige walks off towards the kitchen.

EXT. HEAVENLY PLANE - DAY

Piper stands, holding Chris while Wyatt stands beside her. The Elder stands a few feet away with his back turned to them. He looks as if he is watching for something.

PIPER: Not to bother you or anything, but why are we here?

ELDER: The Elders think that Leo killed another Elder besides Gideon. If this is the case, then that means he is a rogue Elder, and that Wyatt becomming evil is inevitable. The reason you're her is because you're the closest person to him. And we think that he's told you something. Do you know if Leo killed Zola?

PIPER: Leo didn't kill any other Elder. You all have gotten him beating himself over Gideon's death. I don't know why you would blame him for this too. Can't you give him a break...give us a break.

ELDER: We have to figure out who did this. All clues lead back to Leo. I'm sorry, but we can't give you a break until this is solved.

PIPER: We have enough going on in our lives right now. I don't know how much more my family can handle.

ELDER: You and your family won't have to handle anything if you or Leo would just tell. If Leo did kill Zola, then he will go down a never ending path of murder. Sure, he's trying to take on Charges again, but in the long run, he will kill again.

PIPER: He's not a killer.

ELDER: Piper, look at Wyatt, so full of power. If Leo has gone out of control, how do you think it will effect him? Chris came back from the future to keep him from going evil, but if Leo...

PIPER: No...I don't want to hear this. I want to go back down, okay. Just take us down.

ELDER: Piper.

PIPER: (calm anger) Now.

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - LIBRARY - DAY

Paige orbs herself and Leo into the library.

PAIGE: Wyatt took the book with him into the portal, but Gideon had copies of every book in the school. I'm sure I can find the spell.

LEO: Don't you think it could be dangerous?

PAIGE: Like everything we do isn't dangerous.

LEO: I mean, if you get hurt, I can't heal you.

PAIGE: I'll risk it. Now let's get the book.

INT. TEMPLE - GRAND HALL - NIGHT

Az watches as the knife magically cuts adult Chris' chest. Adult Chris SCREAMS out in pain.

AZ: I don't know how you got down here without being dead, but that won't matter for long because your soul will be mine.

ADULT CHRIS: I don't care how long I'm down here. You'll never get it.

AZ: You're a feisty one, aren't you? That won't help you though.

ADULT CHRIS: you wouldn't be talking if I could use my powers down here.

AZ: Those pesky good powers. Evil reigns down here, and only evil powers work here.

A bolt of electricity hits Az, and he flies from adult Chris. The knife falls to the floor.

PHEOBE: (to adult Wyatt) You grab Chris. I can take care of him.

Adult Wyatt nods and makes his way towards Chris. Az gets up from the ground and looks at Pheobe.

AZ: A Charmed One? This will be interesting.

PHEOBE: It won't be that interesting. You'll be just like every other demon I've vanquished before.

AZ: Fool. You can't vanquish me. I'm already in hell. Where else can I go?

PHEOBE: I guess you've got a point. But I don't care.

She throws out blast of eletricity from her hands, increasing the voltage. It's Az's turn to scream out in pain.

Adult Wyatt grabs adult Chris and begins reading from the book.

Az falls to the ground, stunned, but not dead. Pheobe walks over to adult Wyatt as he continues to read.

EXT. MAGIC SCHOOL - DAY

Paige and Leo orb in the spot where the portal opened.

PAIGE: Okay, this is the spot.

LEO: You sure you want to do this?

PAIGE: Do I have any other choice?

Paige opens the book. All of a sudden a portal opens and Pheobe, followed by adult Wyatt, carrying adult Chris walks out.

LEO: Wyatt? Chris?

ADULT WYATT: Hi, dad. Sorry to just run off, but I need to get him back into the future.

LEO: I did this to you? Made you evil?

ADULT WYATT: You're just going to have to find out.

Adult Chris screams out in pain and begins fading in and out.

ADULT WYATT (cont'd): Oh, no.

LEO: What's happening?

Adult Chris throws his head back. His soul leaves his body. It then glows and explodes.

LEO: (crying) No!

Adult Chris' body fades away for good.

EXT. HEAVENLY PLANE - DAY

Piper hugs Chris. He soon starts fading in and out of existence.

PIPER: Not again!

He begins crying. Piper looks at him.

PIPER (cont'd): Stay with me, baby, please.

Chris' soul leaves his body.

PIPER (cont'd): (frantic) No...no...no! Come back.

His soul glows, then disappears. His body fades away for good.
