Ok, I really don't know much about Voodoo. I only know some of the basics. I thought it would be original to use it. If I get anything wrong or offend anyone in any way, I sincerely apologize. Anyway, enjoy. Please review.

Under My Voodoo

Scene: Hut in South Africa. Night.

(An African woman mixes a potion. As she mixes in herbs, she has memories of her childhood.)

Cut to: Hut. Memory.

(A man lies on a bed coughing and wheezing. A small girl around eight, obviously the women, and a teenage boy stands next to the bed. The girl is crying as she holds her dying father's hand. The man looks at the boy.)

Haiti: Cairo, leave us. I need to talk to your sister alone. (The son scowls at his sister as he exits. Haiti looks at his daughter and wipes away a tear.) Now don't cry, Natasha. It happens to everyone. It's part of the circle of life. It's my time and your time will come, too. Perhaps I'll be reincarnated or I'll be in the afterlife. Whatever happens, we will see each other again.

Natasha: Father...

Haiti: Don't make it any harder than it is. (He coughs.) Do you know why I wanted to talk to you? I want to hand down my secret down to you. Cairo isn't fit for it now. You are capable of handling it. (He takes off a necklace and gives it to her. It has a blue medallion on it.) This medallion will help you defeat evil. It burns their evil souls. Do you remember your training?

Natasha: Yes, father.

Haiti: Good. Don't ever let evil get it or they will destroy the Voodoo kind and all of good. They will unleash the demon world. Promise me you will protect it with your life.

Natasha: I will, father.

Haiti: I love you very much. Tell Cairo I love him just as much. (He touches her face kisses her.) Never let it go. (He gasps and his hand drops on the bed. Natasha cries and hugs her dead father.)

Natasha: Father. Father! (She screams in anguish.) FATHER!

Cut to: Hut.

(A tear falls from her face as she looks at the medallion.)

Natasha: It's been a long time, Cairo.

Cairo: I don't want to hurt you. All I want is the medallion. Give it to me.

Natasha: It's not too late. Come back to the good side. Don't let the darkness take you over. (He waves his staff and a horde of demons appear around her.)

Cairo: It is too late. Give it to me or they will attack.

Natasha: Never. (The demons bolt for her. She throws the potion at her feet and a cloud of smoke appears. When it has cleared, she is gone. Cairo looks at the dust where his sister was.)

Cairo: You can't hide forever, sister.

Opening Credits

Scene: Manor. Kitchen.

(Phoebe is in the kitchen cutting up some fruit. She jumps when Patience shimmers in.)

Patience: Hey.

Phoebe: You scared me. What are you doing here?

Patience: I need to tell you something.

Phoebe: What is it? (Patience bends over and moans.) Patience, are you ok? (Patience lifts her head. She has morphed into a demon. Her face looks like Belthazor's except her hair dangles down and she has a black face with red markings.)

Patience: (Demon voice.) Never been better. (She stabs her with a knife and Phoebe gasps.)

Cut to: Living room.

(Phoebe wakes up and gasps. She realizes it was just a dream but she's still shaking. Piper comes in with food. She looks at Phoebe and knows something is wrong. She sets the food down and sits next to Phoebe.)

Piper: Ok, spill it.

Phoebe: What are you talking about?

Piper: I know you better than that. When something's up, you can't hide it. What's wrong?

Phoebe: (sighs.) I just had a dream about Patience. She turned into a demon and killed me. I know it sounds stupid, but with her new powers and training, I don't know what to think about it.

Piper: It's ok. Patience would never even think of hurting you. She's like Cole that way.

Phoebe: Yeah, she doesn't mean to but it just might happen. (Leo orbs in.)

Piper: Hey, honey. (She kisses him.) You ready to take the boys today?

Leo: Yep, I even got their toys and everything. (He looks at the boys.) Um, can I talk to you about something?

Piper: Sure, what is it?

Leo: Things are getting dangerous around here.

Piper: What do you mean?

Leo: Do you remember what Patience said about the boys being sent away? I'm starting to think she was right.

Piper: What? No, Leo, we are not sending Wyatt and Chris away. They are staying here.

Leo: Piper, we have to put the boys' best interest first. Chris doesn't have a shield like Wyatt does. If a demon comes, he'll be in danger.

Piper: He didn't get hurt last time.

Leo: Patience was here last time and the demon wanted you, not the boys. That's not going to be the case next time. We could just take them to the magic school. I'll take the boys and we'll talk about it later. (He grabs the boys but she freezes him.)

Piper: You are not taking my kids. (She takes Wyatt and Chris from him.)

Phoebe: Piper, what are you going to do?

Piper: I'm going to put Wyatt and Chris in the jeep and then I'm going to the club to set up for Subline.

Phoebe: It's Sublime.

Piper: Whatever. (She walks out the door and closes it. Leo unfreezes.)

Leo: She froze me, didn't she?

Phoebe: Yep.

Cut to: Magic School. Paige's office.

(Paige is walking around her office reading books. She is so into it that she doesn't even notice a man walk in. He walks up behind her quietly. He pulls out a knife and holds it up. He grabs her and puts the knife against her throat.)

Paige: What do you want?

Kevin: I just want to... draw your picture. (He lets her go and she turns around.) Hey

Paige: Kevin. (She hugs him.) It's good to see you.

Kevin: Nice to see you, too? So, you're the new headmistress, huh?

Paige: Yeah, it's not too bad. What are you doing here?

Kevin: Well, they decided that you needed some help. They sent me to be your assistant headmaster. Surprise! (She looks at him with her mouth wide open.) You would make a good flytrap.

Paige: Sorry, I can't believe it. You've been an Elder for about two years and you're already moving up. This is going to be great. (She hugs him.)

Cut to: P3.

(Piper is setting up the club with the P3 crew when she hears a baby cry. She stops what she is doing and goes to the backroom. She sees that Chris is crying. She picks him up and holds him.)

Piper: Shh, there there, Chris. What's wrong? I just changed you and hour ago. Are you hungry? (She grabs a bottle and puts it up to his mouth but he won't take it. He continues to cry.) You want me to rock you? (She starts to rock him and he settles down. He falls asleep in her arms and she puts him down.) That wasn't too bad. (She goes back to work. She barely starts to set down chairs when she hears crying again. She goes back to the room. This time, it's Wyatt crying. She picks him up and starts rocking him.) What's wrong with you? (She pats him and he burps. He smiles and Piper lays him back down.) Be good, ok? Love you. (She goes back to work. She starts putting down chairs when both boys start crying.)

Marvin: You better get a baby sitter.

Piper: I know, I know. (She heads to the backroom again but they stop crying. When she doesn't hear them, she gets worried. She runs to the room and sees a woman rocking them.) Hey, put them down right now!

Natasha: Sorry, it's just they were cold. You should cover them with a blanket.

Piper: Step away from them or I swear I'll...

Natasha: You'll do what? (Pipe holds up her hand and tries to blow her up but nothing happens. She tries to freeze her but it doesn't work.) You powers won't work on me, Mrs. Halliwell.

Piper: How do you now my name?

Natasha: Well, you are a Charmed One, aren't you?

Piper: Ok, explanation time. Who are you?

Natasha: I'm a mambo, a voodoo priest if you will.

Piper: A voodoo priest. Could you tell me why you've tracked me down?

Natasha: I need your help, Piper, along with your sisters.

Cut to: Manor. Kitchen.

(Phoebe is making herself some lunch when Patience shimmers in unnoticed. She walks up behind her quietly and taps her on the shoulder. Phoebe grabs a knife and cuts Patience in the stomach.)

Patience: Ow!

Phoebe: Oh my god. Patience, I'm so sorry.

Patience: It's alright. (She grabs a cloth and holds it against the cut.) It's just a scratch. I shouldn't have come up on you like that. I just thought we could talk.

Phoebe: Patience, I...

Patience: What's wrong? (She moves closer to Phoebe. Phoebe remembers her premonition.) Don't you trust me? Do you think I'm evil?

Phoebe: No, I trust you.

Patience: Good. (She pulls out a knife. Phoebe closes her eyes. The real Patience shimmers in and throws an energy ball at the demon by Phoebe. The imposter burns up. Patience walks to Phoebe as Phoebe stares in wonder.)

Phoebe: But... you... she...

Patience: You alright? I got here just in time. It looks like the Source is sending more demons after us.

Phoebe: Us?

Patience: Yeah, he wants the Power of Three plus one. He thinks he can get me for your life. (She looks at the ashes on the floor.) I'll clean that up later.

Phoebe: How do I know that you're not an imposter?

Patience: If I was an imposter, would I have just killed that demon? Ok, maybe I would have. How about this? (She reaches for her pocket. Phoebe puts her guard up.) I'm not going to pull out a gun. I was reaching for this. (She pulls out the bracelet with the triquetra charm.) Now do you believe me?

Phoebe: You are really back. (She hugs her but Patience pushes her away.)

Patience: I don't think we should do that, at least not for a while.

Phoebe: You're right. (She backs off.) So, what now?

Patience: I need to tell you something. (Patience starts but the front door opens and someone walks in.) It can wait. (Phoebe and Patience walk into the living room.)

Cut to: Living room.

(Phoebe and Patience walk in and see Piper and Natasha.)

Phoebe: Who's that?

Piper: This is Natasha.

Natasha: Hello.

Piper: She's a mambo.

Phoebe: A what?

Piper: A voodoo priest.

Patience: A voodoo priest, you mean as in voodoo dolls and vevers?

Piper: Yes, she needs the Power of Three and possibly plus one. (Patience laughs.)

Natasha: Is there something funny?

Patience: I don't have time for this.

Piper: Patience.

Patience: I'm not doing this and I hope you're not either.

Piper: We are.

Patience: I can't believe this! Voodoo is nothing but a fake. Voodoo priests are like magicians. (Natasha starts to move behind Patience. She pulls something out and seems to mold something.) They use tricks and illusions. They don't have powers. I won't help a...ow! Hey, what was that?

Natasha: I'm just getting a sample of your hair.

Patience: Why? (Natasha sticks the piece of hair in a wax doll. She pushes the doll upwards. As she does this, Patience starts to float in the air.) What the hell? (Natasha pokes it with a pin.) Ouch! (She pokes it again.) Ow, stop that! (She tickles the doll and Patience laughs. Then she drops the doll and Patience falls to the ground and groans.)

Natasha: Now do you believe me?

Phoebe: Paige! (She orbs in.)

Paige: What's up?

Piper: We need to help Natasha. She's a...

Paige: Mambo. Nice to meet you. (She shakes her hand.)

Piper: You knew?

Paige: Yeah, Leo informed me about the situation.

Phoebe: What situation?

Natasha: Can we explain later? We need to find a way to stop him.

Phoebe: What are you talking about? Who do we need to stop? (As she says this, Cairo appears in a cloud of smoke.)

Natasha: Cairo.

Cairo: Hey, sis. (He waves his staff and the red demons appear again.) Attack! (They start to attack them. Paige calls for a knife and throws it at a demon. Piper starts disintegrating them and Phoebe starts fighting. Patience starts throwing energy balls. A demon goes after Natasha but the medallion wards them off. Cairo smiles and waves the staff. All the demons disappear.) It appears that you have recruited allies.

Patience: We're not allies yet.

Cairo: Hmm. You are very strong. I will give you time to think of a plan so I can prepare. I'll see you shortly. (He disappears in a cloud of smoke.)

Phoebe: BOS. (She heads upstairs.)

Natasha: What?

Piper: Book of Shadows. (They all follow Phoebe.)

Cut to: Underworld.

Source: What is it?

Ora: The girl has killed Sirius.

Source: Figures. Where is Vicious?

Vicious: Here, my lord. (A shoulder length white haired man appears. He looks to be in his late twenties. He wears an over coat and a smirk and bows.) We will not fall behind schedule. I have someone keeping the witches occupied. (Cairo appears.)

Cairo: My name is Cairo. I'm very strong.

Source: Why should I trust a voodoo priest?

Cairo: I am not a mambo. I've turned to the dark side. I can get you ultimate power. I can get you the Vever of Heaven and Hell.

Vicious: Just make sure you leave me Patience. (Cairo bows and disappears.)

Source: How long will he last?

Vicious: Not long enough for my training.

Cut to: Manor attic.

(Phoebe is flipping through the Book of Shadows with Natasha at her side. Piper and Paige are sitting on the couch.)

Natasha: That's it.

Phoebe: A Mazi?

Natasha: That's what we call an evil voodoo priest. (Piper gets up and looks.)

Piper: A Mazi is a voodoo priest that has turned evil by killing. Sounds like a warlock. (Paige gets up and reads.)

Paige: A Mazi's soul purpose is to kill voodoo priests and bring forth the end of the world. In order to destroy the world, they seek the Vever of Heaven and Hell, a medallion that was made at the beginning of voodoo. It will protect good priests and innocents from evil. The only way a Mazi can get it is if the holder gives it up of free will. In a Mazi's hands, the depths of hell will be released and all mankind will be engulfed in torture and chains with everlasting pain. Fortunately, their kind is small.

Piper: There's no vanquish.

Natasha: You have to get his staff. Without it, he'll be defenseless. Then we can kill him.

Patience: Then let's get the damn thing and kill the bastard. (They all look at her as she leans against the doorway.)

Phoebe: Why don't you come in?

Patience: I want to stay out of range. As long as I stay out of reach, I'll be fine.

Natasha: Really. Sit, girl. (Patience falls on her face. They all start to laugh.) It's a new technique. I can not only control you from wherever I want, but I can also use commands. (Patience looks up and groans.)

Patience: I have to stop this. (Kevin orbs in. Paige looks at him.)

Paige: Kevin, what are you doing?

Piper: You mean comic Kevin?

Phoebe: He's the one that turned us into superheroes. Can you do it again?

Kevin: Yes and no. Paige, you need to get back to the school.

Paige: Is there something wrong?

Kevin: The kids are being attacked by trolls. The fairy princess has taken refuge in the castle.

Piper: How does he know?

Paige: He's the new assistant headmaster. I'll be back. (She grabs him and orbs out. Patience gets off the ground and goes up to the Natasha.)

Patience: Ok, what do you want?

Natasha: I want my brother back.

Patience: He probably won't want to come back, so we might have to kill him.

Natasha: I know.

Piper: We don't have to. What if we destroy the medallion?

Natasha: I don't think we can. It's protected by magic.

Phoebe: Not good magic.

Patience: You want to be protected, I want my freedom. If I help you, will you take the curse off?

Natasha: Of course.

Patience: Good. (She steps out of ear shock.) If I can get that doll from her, then I won't have to get my hands dirty.

Phoebe: I'll try to figure out a way to destroy the medallion. You make yourself comfortable. (Piper and Natasha leave.) Ok, let's get busy.

Cut to: Conservatory. Time-lapse.

(Natasha picks up a crying Chris and gives him a blanket. She sets him down and gives Wyatt a toy.)

Piper: You're good with children.

Natasha: It comes naturally. Mambos know a lot about babies.

Piper: I wish I knew that much.

Natasha: I see that something is troubling you, Piper. It's about your kids.

Piper: My husband thinks we should send our kids to the magic school for protection. But I can't send them away. They need me. I need them. I don't know what to do. I think Patience might be right. Maybe I'm not a good mother.

Natasha: Don't listen to her. You're a wonderful mother. I can feel it. Patience doesn't feel emotion like you do. That's what children need. You need to follow your heart.

Piper: Something's troubling you, too. (Patience sneaks into the room and tries to grab the doll.)

Natasha: It's Cairo. I still believe he is good. I think he blames himself for father's death. He never gave him enough love and that's why he died.

Piper: We'll save him. (Patience has her hand on the doll.)

Natasha: I know. Sit. (Patience hits the ground.) Give it up.

Patience: I want that doll.

Natasha: Do as your name tells you.

Patience: Ha, ha, ha. Very funny. (Paige orbs in.)

Paige: Trolls are a pain in the ass.

Piper: Did you get them all?

Paige: Every last one. How's the Cairo thing going?

Patience: I think Phoebe is almost done. (Phoebe comes through the door holding three potion vials.) Speaking of the devil.

Phoebe: I'm done. Here. (She hands a vial to Piper and Paige.) We each throw a potion on the medallion and, puff, bye-bye apocalypse.

Natasha: Let's do it. (She takes the medallion off and sets it on the ground.)

Piper: On three. One...Two... (Suddenly, Cairo appears.)

Cairo: Three. (He sends the girls flying backwards. He takes out three dolls and waves them around. The girls go flying across the room.) Voodoo dolls are so much fun to play with, don't you think? (He shows the dolls to them. One has a diamond embedded in it, another has black silk around it, and another one has Strawberry Shortcake cloth around it.)

Piper: Hey, that's from my diamond necklace.

Paige: That's part of my dress.

Phoebe: That's from my... never mind.

Cairo: Why don't you stand up? (They all stand up.) I have complete control over you.

Piper: You son of a bitch.

Cairo: Kneel. (They all kneel in front of him.) Now, bow before your master. (They all bow to him.) You will make excellent slaves. (Patience comes in.)

Patience: What's going on? (Not noticing her, Cairo sends Natasha flying into a wall. Patience also goes flying into a wall.) Not again. (As Natasha and Patience hit the wall, Cairo makes his move towards the medallion. He picks it up.)

Cairo: At last, the Vever of Heaven and Hell. Your world will be mine. (He starts to laugh but is suddenly knocked over by Patience.) What? How did you... (But before he can finish his sentence, Patience punches him in the face and then in the stomach. As Patience is beating him down, his staff falls out of his hands. Piper takes aim and blows it up along with Cairo. The voodoo dolls of the sisters disappear. Patience falls to the ground and Phoebe runs over.)

Phoebe: Patience, are you ok? Say something. (She opens her eyes and rubs her head.)

Patience: What happened?

Paige: You kicked Cairo's ass, that's what happened.

Patience: What are you talking about? Cairo knocked me out cold. Where is he?

Piper: He's gone. You don't remember anything?

Patience: Just up to the point when he sent me flying across the room.

Natasha: You wouldn't remember anything since you were unconscious. I just used the voodoo doll.

Patience: What?

Natasha: Remember how I said I could use it through commands? That's what I did. I told you to do every punch and kick that you landed so you could get the staff.

Patience: Ok. You have any aspirin?

Natasha: No. Where is the medallion?

Phoebe: Right there. Let's destroy it now. (They all throw the potions and the medallion turns to dust and disappears.) I'm glad that's over.

Piper: Something is always around the corner looking for us.

Paige: We can take them.

Cut to: Underworld.

Vicious: I guess he gave me more time then I thought. I need to train more.

Source: I will send another to keep them busy. You take all the time you need.

Vicious: Thank you, my lord. (He shimmers out.)

Source: I hope you are strong enough, my brother.

Cut to: Manor Entrance Hallway.

(The sisters are saying goodbye to Natasha but Patience is standing by the stair landing.)

Piper: Are you sure you can't stay? We have plenty of room.

Natasha: No, I have to get back to South Africa. I need to catch up on the voodoo rituals. You take care.

Paige: We'll miss you.

Natasha: I know. I will, too.

Phoebe: Come back and visit.

Natasha: You can count on it.

Piper: I'll never forget you.

Natasha: Take care of those kids. If you need some help, I'm just a call away.

Patience: Hmm.

Natasha: I almost forgot. (She takes out the Patience doll and a pair of scissors.) I made a deal with you. (She puts the doll's neck between the scissor blades.)

Patience: What are you doing? (She slowly closes the scissors.) No, wait. Stop! (The doll head falls on the ground. Patience is holding to her neck.)

Natasha: You can let go now. (She does so slowly. She pats herself and laughs.)

Patience: I still have my head. But... (The doll disappears.) I guess the spell's gone.

Natasha: Yes. I had to remove the hair and then destroy the doll. Here's your hair back. (She hands Patience her hair.)

Patience: Thanks.

Natasha: Well, I'll see you again. (She disappears but some items are left where she was. The sisters go to pick them up.)

Patience: I'm glad that's over.

Piper: Hey, my diamond.

Paige: My dress piece. (Phoebe picks up the Strawberry Shortcake cloth.) What is that?

Piper: Hmm. That's from her underwear. (Everyone starts laughing.)

Phoebe: It was laundry day. I had to buy some new ones. Shut up!

Cut to: P3. Night.

(Everyone is dancing to the music. Piper goes up to Leo.)

Piper: Hey.

Leo: Hey.

Piper: I've been thinking, Leo, about Wyatt and Chris.

Leo: Piper, please. Let's not argue.

Piper: We don't have to. I've decided to send them to the magic school. If you still want to, that is.

Leo: Are you sure?

Piper: Yes. I don't want them to get hurt because we have to fight demons.

Leo: I'll take them tomorrow. I love you.

Piper: I love you, too. (They kiss. We see Phoebe, Patience, and Paige sitting in a booth.)

Paige: So, did you buy any new underwear today?

Phoebe: Very funny. (They look at Patience. She has her hands over her ears.) Are you ok, Patience?

Patience: Yeah, I still have a headache from today.

Paige: Oh, cheer up. It probably did you some good. Just goes to show you, voodoo isn't all bad.

Patience: I don't ever want to hear that word again.

Marvin: Hey, how's everyone doing? (Everyone cheers.) Well, we've come to the moment you've all been waiting for. It is my pleasure to introduce Sublime. (Everyone claps as they run on stage. They start playing Under My Voodoo.)

Patience: Excuse me. I need to go puke. (She gets up and Phoebe follows her. Kevin walks up to Paige.)

Paige: Kevin, tonight is my night off.

Kevin: I know. I though you might want to dance. (She grabs his hand and they start to dance.) See, not all Elders are bad.

Cut to: Backroom.

(Patience is lying on the couch with an icepack on her hand. Phoebe walks in.)

Phoebe: Hey.

Patience: What's up?

Phoebe: I need to talk to you.

Patience: Ok, shoot.

Phoebe: Why are you avoiding me?

Patience: I'm not. Ok, I might be a little

Phoebe: Why?

Patience: Do you remember when you were pregnant with the Source's son?

Phoebe: Yeah, why?

Patience: It wasn't suppose to be your son. It was suppose to be me. I was suppose to be evil. But thanks to your future self, it turned out to be a boy. Then he was destroyed. The only reason why it was ever evil was because Cole became the Source. Did he ever tell you why he became the Source?

Phoebe: He wanted power?

Patience: No, he became the Source because he was forced to. The Seer said the Source went into the void. She was talking about Cole's demonic half. The Source possessed Cole and turned him evil. He tried to fight it at first but in the end, the Source was too powerful and he succumbed to him. He always wanted you to know that but he couldn't tell you. My life has been based on evil. The only way I'm able to be good is because of you. I don't know what to do. (She shimmers out.)

Phoebe: Don't worry, Patience. I know you're not evil.

The End.
