'Here's one!' Emma shouted from the ladder she was on. She had been helping Paige and Aidan find books or any information about the counterparts, not to mention any books that would help Piper get her new power under control. After the night of the counterparts attack, Piper had found that every time she was slightly angry, she would cause a small earthquake. Leo had diagnosed her with geokinesis, although everyone agreed it was a strange way for her powers to advance. Ever since then she had been scared of her new power, Paige kept trying to remind her that once she got it under control, she would be unstoppable. The Elders theory had been that this new power was either an extension of her exploding power, or it was leftovers from her goddess powers. Piper had been spending every spare minute with Leo, training in Magic School's battle arena, but nothing had helped to far.

Emma walked down the isle to find Paige and Aidan standing at opposite ends of the table.

'What'd you find?' Paige's voice came out in a squeak

'Uh… Paige?'

'Yes?'

'Your lipstick is smeared,' Emma replied with a smirk

Paige's face went red, as did Aidan's as he turned around to avoid eye contact. Paige tried to cover with some lame excuse.

'Uh… You know me, messy applier,' she grinned stupidly

'Uh huh… Anyway, look what I found! I think this might help Piper with her power problems,'

'Let me see,' Emma handed the book over 'Hmm… It's a book on controlling elemental powers,'

'Yeah, there's a section on geokinesis, and hydrokinesis, if you're interested,' Emma turned to Aidan. Who was still dazed by what ever happened between him and Paige when Emma had went away.

'What? Oh! Right! Thanks,' he smiled and run a hand through his short blond hair.

'Hmm… this could help, it gives you instructions on how to start using your powers, I'll show it to Piper later,' Paige closed the book and put it down.

'I'll take it to her, I need to pass the arena to get to the potion labs anyway,' Paige and Emma had combined their knowledge of potions and were working on one to vanquish the counterparts.

'Okay, I'll go take this Piper, and you, um… get back to what you were doing,' Emma smirked and raised her eyebrows, which received a friendly glare from Paige.

'Now,' Aidan walked over to Paige, putting his arms around her waist 'Where were we?'


'Oh, crap! Leo! Watch out!' Piper screamed at her husband, as the crack in the ground grew bigger and threatened to swallow the elder into the Earth. Leo quickly orbed out before the shockwave reached him.

'Damn it!' Piper dropped to the floor in frustration and exhaustion, every time she used her new power, it drained her energy greatly, and she wasn't any closer to controlling it, which made her angry, which led to her creating another fissure, it was a horrible cycle of events that wouldn't stop.

Leo orbed in next to his distressed wife and knelt down beside her, putting a comforting arm around her.

'It's alright honey, you'll get the hang of it… eventually,' he looked around the arena, which was now a collection of holes and large cracks in the ground, Piper had destroyed the entire place in half an hour!

'Leo, this isn't getting any better! I'm a danger to everyone right now! I can't even get angry without opening up the ground the sending someone to the earths core!' the ground shook slightly at her raised voice and she sighed and cuddled into Leo even more.

'Piper, remember when you first got your phasing power? You were afraid of phasing through the ground and ending up six feet under with no way out? It's the same here,' he took her hand 'That fear is what is holding you back, you just have to learn to control it, just like you did with your other powers,'

She sighed 'But it's like I have to relearn my powers all over again, this new power has brought a power boost to my other ones,' that was true, her freezing range had widened, along with the time she could keep something frozen, her exploding power was a like a rocket launcher now, and she could make other things invisible, as long as she was touching them during her invisibility. Her massing and phasing had improved also, she could selectively mass parts of her body, and she could now phase things that she was touching.

'Piper, I believe in you. A new power isn't going to beat you, it's going to make you stronger,'

'You're right. I know you're right, but it's just so hard,' she complained

Leo smiled at her and pulled her to her feet 'C'mon, why don't we go home and relax? It's time for the boys bed time anyway, Wyatt needs his sleep for his first day at magical pre school'

She smiled at him gratefully and wearily 'That sounds good, although I don't think I'm going to be very good company, I'll probably fall asleep soon,'

'That's fine with me,' he wrapped his arms around her as she laid her head on his chest, they prepared to orb out and get the boys when Emma came through the door.

'Hey guys! Oh, sorry, bad time?'

'No, it's alright, we were just going to get the boys,' Piper replied.

'Okay, I won't keep you for long, I just wanted to give you this,' she handed the book to Piper 'This might help you with your new power,'

Piper quickly scanned the book and read the first paragraph of the geokinesis chapter out loud.

'Many of the witches who possess this power think that they need to start off the with the big manifestations of their power, like causing earthquakes or opening fissures, but this wrong. Until you have control over the small things, the harder abilities will never be within your grasp. As a starting practice, try making a plant grow, once you have mastered this skill, slowly work your way up and eventually, you will be an accomplished geokinesis master!' Piper looked up from the book 'This might actually help, thanks,'

'No problem! Now you guys go and enjoy the rest of your night, okay?'

'Sure, thanks again!' the couple orbed out and Emma left the room.


'Hey! Look! I found something!' Paige said triumphantly.

'What is it?' Aidan asked her from the bottom of the ladder.

She looked down at him 'It's nothing on our evil twins, but it's something on that mystery demon you vanquished in the parking lot, remember?'

'What's it say?' he asked her as she came down from the top shelf

'Well, it doesn't mention our shrieking friend directly, but it does say something about demonic hybrids,'

'Let's see,' Aidan shared the book with Paige

'Apparently, there is a special type of sorcerer called demon tamers, these beings specialise in merging different breeds of demons together. It says that each demon tamer had it's own symbol, like, to show that this is their creation, and that they mark their demons with it. There's a list of emblems here,' she tapped the page of the book.

'Well, we'll do more research tomorrow, but do you say we go home and- Paige?' Aidan stared at her; she looked as if she was looking at something off into the distance.

'Piper's calling,' she said simply

'She might be being attacked by our buddy here,' Aidan replied

'Let's go,' they orbed and splashed out.


Piper jumped behind the sofa to avoid being hit by a fireball, which ended up blowing up her couch. She contained her anger, knowing that if she let loose, she would probably open up a fissure in her living room; she resorted to calling for Paige.

Leo came down the stairs and threw a lightning bolt and the demon; it sent it flying into he sunroom, just as Paige and Aidan appeared.

'Paige, go and get the crystals!' Aidan shouted over the noise of the fight. She nodded and orbed out while Leo and Aidan began to fight.

'Shall we?' Leo sparked electricity from his hands

'We shall,' the two men blasted water and lightning at the demon, the water was electrically charged which left it crumpled on the ground.

Paige orbed in carrying the box of crystals, she quickly made a circle with them and trapped the demon. She went over to help Piper up from the floor, who was obviously fuming, judging from her red face.

'Are you okay?' Paige asked her cautiously

'Yes. I am fine. Now, if you'll excuse me,' she straightened up her clothes 'I'm going… to make… a flower grow,'

She stormed through to kitchen and slammed the door to the garden on her way out. Leo went after and Aidan began interrogating the demon.

'Uh… Could you go get the Book Of Shadows for me please?' Paige asked him nicely 'I want to see if there's anything on demon tamers in there,'

Aidan nodded and ran up the stairs, taking two at a time. Paige noticed something around the demons neck, as soon as he saw her eyeing it, he put his hand over it, and it was obviously something he wanted to hide.

'Sorry, but that won't help you, necklace!' there was a light coming from under the creatures hand and the necklace reappeared in Paige's hand, surrounded by orbs.

She held it up to the light to see if she could identify the emblem on it, but as she raised it to the light, Aidan's voice startled her.

'Paige! Get up here! Quick!' at the call of her distressed boyfriend, she quickly ran up the stairs to the attic.


'What the hell?!' Paige surveyed the scene, Aidan just ducked and rolled out of the way of a large blast of electricity, it had come from a teenage girl in the middle of the room, she had long dark brown hair, and had tanned skin.

'Get the hell out of my house!' the girl was shouting. A stray bolt of lightning flew at Paige, who had barely enough time to deflect it telekinetically.

'Paige! A little help here?! Electricity doesn't really agree with me!' Aidan shouted over the crackle of voltage.

'Uh… right!' Paige waved her arm aggressively, and sent the girl flying into a pile of cardboard boxes that were in the corner.

'Who is she?' Aidan cautiously approached the girl, who was a little dazed.

'I don't know, but we're gonna find out,' Paige walked over the boxes.

'We?! Oh no! I'm not going anywhere near her until her powers are bound or until I'm in a rubber suit!'

'Oh, stop being a baby!'

The girl looked at Paige 'Huh? Aunt Paige? Did you do that to me?'

At the word 'aunt' Paige quickly called for Piper and Leo, who were already halfway there, as they had come to see what all the noise was about.

'Shh! The boys are sleep-ing, who the hell is that?' Piper said, pointing at the dazed teenager in the mountain of cardboard.

'Wait a minute… you guys don't recognise me?' she girl stood up, brushing down her clothes.

'Well, judging how you just tried to kill my boyfriend, I'd say you're a foe!' Paige glared at her.

'Boyfriend? Aren't you married to… what have I done?'


'Well, she's telling the truth,' Emma informed the Paige, it was now early morning, they had called Emma to help with the girl that appeared in their attic. It may have been 6:30 in the morning, but Emma had been happy to help, Piper and Paige agreed that she had become a real asset to their cause.

'Okay, but we still don't know how she got here?' Paige replied wearily, Piper had gone to bed earlier because she was going into Magic School for Wyatt's first day, and with Anastasia playing P3 that night, she had a lot to do and needed her energy.

So far, they had found out the girl's name was Persia, and that she was Phoebe's daughter and she was what she called 'A Child Of Light' which apparently had enough power to go toe to toe with the Charmed Ones, and her cousins, the Blessed Ones. Nor Emma or Paige knew what all these were, but they determined to get to the bottom of it.

'So, what's the last thing you remember before attacking Aidan in the attic?' Emma asked her, she had some patience left, as she had not been awake as long as Paige.

'Well,' the girl sat on her hands 'All the adults had went out to the club, and I was in charge of looking after my cousins for the night… Oh no! My cousins! I left them alone!' she stood up, not knowing what she was going to do about her situation.

'Don't worry! Paige and I are working on it! Just, continue your story' Paige smiled; Emma was close to losing it.

'Well, I… remember experimenting with potions and then, I was… here,' she said simply.

Piper walked down the stairs, stifling the yawn with her hand.

'Morning, oh, you still here?' Piper said sweetly.

'That's not a very nice thing to say to your niece from an alternate reality,' Paige scolded her sarcastically

Emma sighed 'Paige, you go to bed, you've been up all night. I don't have any classes till the afternoon, so I can do research and figure out a way to get Persia home,' she turned to Piper 'Piper, be with your son. Today's special, so go, leave this to me,'

'What about our friend over there,' Piper tilted her head towards the demon in the cage.

'Oh, crap! I forgot to tell you!' Paige announced before she walked up the stairs 'We need the Power Of Three to vanquish the demon tamer, I checked the book,'

Emma stood up 'I have an idea about that, just go and get some rest,' she guided Paige towards the staircase and turned back to see Piper staring at her 'What?'

'I feel guilty about dumping all this stuff on you,' Piper told her.

Emma smiled 'What are friends for? Besides, you've got a lot going on today, and Paige is here if I need any help and I'm sure Persia a good enough witch to help, right?' she looked at the teenager on the sofa, she had fell asleep!

Piper laughed 'I'll be home at lunchtime to help you, okay?'

Emma nodded and watched Piper go up the stairs, but she turned around midway and spoke 'Oh! And could you look after Chris?'

Emma sighed, but smiled 'Sure,'


Emma was sitting in front of the Book Of Shadows in the attic, crumpled pieces of paper were lying around, all of them had failed spells written on them, not to mention and countless jars of potion ingredients that lay on the table, surrounding the pot. Emma was sleeping soundly, with her head resting on her arms, which were resting on the demon tamer page of the Book Of Shadows.

Paige walked into the attic, stretching from her nap. She gently shook Emma and she woke up with a piece of paper sticking to the side of her face.

'You okay?' Paige asked her.

'Uh… yeah,' she pealed the piece of paper off her face and handed it to Paige 'That's the tamer vanquishing spell, it should work if I'm there to help you and Piper,' she looked around drowsily 'Um… I wrote a spell to open a portal to Persia's home, it should be around somewhere,'

Paige lay a sympathetic hand on her friends shoulder 'You didn't need to do this, you know,' she picked up a sheet of paper 'This it?'

Emma squinted her eyes ' Uh… yeah, that's it,' her eyes suddenly widened 'Oh my god! Chris!'

Paige laughed 'Don't worry, Persia's looking after him, apparently Piper has two girls in her world,'

Emma nodded, the fatigue showing on her face 'Look, go and have a lie down in Phoebe's room, Piper will be home soon and we'll kill the tamer and send Persia home,'

'Okay, sleep sounds nice at the moment,' she walked down the stairs and into Phoebe's room. She was just about to lie down when something shimmered in behind her and grabbed her, covering her mouth

'Not time for sleep yet, witch!' he whispered in her ear before shimmering out along with Emma.


'I can't believe this!' Piper read the note on the bed again; they had come into Phoebe's room to wake Emma, only to find that the demon tamer had kidnapped her.

'Well, we have to go get her!' Paige exclaimed.

'We will, but we can't go into the underworld without a plan, we need to think of something!' Piper shouted back.

'Actually,' the sisters spun round to see Persia in the doorway 'Emma made vanquishing potions for the demon hybrids, she tested it on the one downstairs, all that's left of that demon a scorch mark, she made a batch, they're in the kitchen,'

'Okay, but what about the tamer?' Piper asked

It was Paige's turn to answer 'She wrote a vanquishing spell for him, she was really confident it would work too,' Paige waved the spell at Piper 'That a good enough plan?'

Piper sneered at her sister and went to get ready for a battle.


Ugh… where am I? Emma tried to look with her blurred vision, but to no avail. All she heard was a voice

'You know, I'm only keeping you alive so that your sisters will come for you,'

Sisters? He thinks I'm a Charmed One? Emma's thoughts shrieked in her head.

The voice spoke again 'Won't be long until- what?'

He sounded surprised; Emma could hear explosions and screams of anguish from the demons that were outside. There was a loud crash and a breeze as the iron door to the cavern was broken through.

'What happened to my creations?' he asked someone with a pleading voice.

'Your groupies?' it was Piper's voice 'We killed them,'

'And we're about to do the same thing to you,' Paige's voice rang out.

Emma's vision came back just in time to see the tamer fly across the room, no doubt Paige's doing. The sisters came over to her and unbound the shackles around her.

'You got the spell?' Emma asked them

'Of course!' Piper rustled in her pocket and held out the paper

'Creator of the foulest forms

Feel the wrath of our scorn

We send you now, to hell's fires

As you demise is our desire,'

The demon began to scream in pain and spin uncontrollably until he exploded. Emma stumbled and leaned onto Piper for support.

'Nice spell,' Paige complemented her

Emma breathed a laugh 'Thanks,'


'Leo? Could you get that box for me?' Emma asked the elder that was standing at the back of the car. After their 'Power Of Three' vanquish, Piper and Paige decided that it would be safer if Emma moved in with them. She had been reluctant, asking what would happen if Phoebe came back but they had just told her that if Phoebe accomplished the goal of her journey, she probably wouldn't want to live with them anymore. She had accepted, and since the place she lived in was a minuscule dump, she thought it would be a nice change of scenery.

She passed Piper on the stairs to the house; they were going back and forward, getting all of Emma's stuff out of the car. As she passed the front garden, Piper glared at a sprout in the soil, and was ecstatic when it became a blossoming flower in front of her very eyes.


The girls were sitting in a booth in P3, the crowd was large and the place seemed to be packed! Piper, Paige and Emma sat around the table, making toasts

Paige held up her bottle of water 'To Piper! For finally getting some control over her new power!' three bottles met in the middle.

Emma was next 'To Paige! For finally taking a day off! Even if it was to sleep and fight demons!' there was a chinging sound again.

Piper raised her glass 'And to Emma! For making the brave decisionto live with an elder, a couple of witches and two little boys! I hope you're happy here,'

'Oh! Here, here!' Paige replied as their bottles met for a third time.

They turned their attention to the stage, where Rex, P3's manager, was announcing their guest.

'Ladies and Gentlemen! Please, give it up for… Anastasia!' the crowd went wild as the blond pop star appeared on the stage and began to sing, as the new, temporary Power Of Three watched on.
