Okay, I'm back. I'd like to wish you all and all of your mothers a very happy mother's day. I'm so happy that school is almost out. Those of you that don't go to school won't care, except for the fact that when school is out, I'll have nothing better to do than sit around and write this, which I've already pointed out...

Fire Gazer- You + good review Awesome! Glad you liked it.

Who-will-change-the-world- Franfurd? Don't you mean Frankford? Lol! I don't remember Germany because I was only little, but I'd like to go back to see it. French is awesome! It's cool that you're French. You could do your next review in French (not that I'd understand it, but it would still be neat).

The-Cheese-Fairy- Yes, T.W. King is a sexy hot beast! So are Juilan, Brian, Kerr Smith, and all the other guys they put on that show! It took me a while to figure out that name. And what are you talking about my kick ass names? Yours rock too!

Prince Halliwell- Wow, I think you LOVED that chapter. Am I right? Lol! By the way, I like your collaboration with The-Cheese-Fairy on her story.

fanmania- Thanks!

s.halliwell- Ah, demons are stupid! Thanks!


Prue lay in bed, stroking her daughter's black hair that was almost identical to her own. It had been about two days since she had sent Zortoth on his mission and he still wasn't back yet. She just wanted to get Andy back. She wished that he had never volunteered for this. She wished that Phoebe hadn't written that spell. She wished that these stupid demons didn't have to come up with this just when her life was perfect.

She heard Patience let out a small sigh. The little girl rolled over and her blue eyes met Prue's. They stared at each other for a while, silently wishing for Andy's return. The moment was soon interrupted by Zortoth shimmering in.

"I have your information," he growled. Prue sat up.

"Okay. Let's go upstairs and have a meeting. You can tell us everything you know, and then we'll give your own body," Prue said. Zortoth nodded and Prue picked Patience up and led the demon upstairs. Little did he know, his death awaited him. As soon as they opened the attic door, Piper froze him. Prue moved to her sisters' sides.

"Ready?" Phoebe asked.

"Just give me my husband back," Prue said. Phoebe nodded.

"Make this demon human now

You've found a way, so use it now

Now that he has leant a hand

Change him back, it's my command," Phoebe said. Zortoth unfroze and roared loudly.

"You lied, witch," he said through gritted teeth. Prue grinned.

"I told ya you were stupid," she said. The demon's form sank back down until Andy was left. Prue ran over to him, Patience still in her arms. She threw her arms around his neck and kissed him deeply.

"Nice to see you too, sweetie," Andy said with a grin when she pulled back.

"Daddy back!" Patience exclaimed. Andy nodded and gave his daughter a hug.

"Okay, I don't mean to break up the moment, but we really need to get cracking on this apocalypse thing," Paige said. Andy nodded.

"I got a lot of information for you guys," he said.


The Charmed Ones and their spouses were sitting in the living room, while Andy told them all what he had learned. The children were napping in their parent's bedrooms.

"Okay, what I, or Zortoth, found out was that the Bringers know about 192 Nexuses all over the world. They believe that there are approximately 248. I have a list with me of all of the locations. It looks to be in Italian, but from what I can tell, this Nexus isn't on it. They plan to activate all of the Nexuses a month after they find the last one. There will be three demons stationed at each one," Andy said. Prue quickly calculated in her head.

"That's 744 demons," she said.

"How the hell are we going to stop this?" Piper asked.

"Yeah, there's no way we can stop all of those demons at once. Some of them will still be able to activate the Nexuses," Paige said.

"Come on guys! Where's your spirit? Where's your hope? Where are the Charmed Ones that led an army of good to defeat an army of evil? We've dealt with worse conditions. We can do this. I believe we know of a few Valkaries that would be able to help us out," Frisco said. Paige smiled in admiration of his determination.

"I can tell you now, if we defeat all of these demons, there won't be any left. When I went down to the Underworld, there were hardly any except for the Bringers. We'll have a demon free life for quite some time. If we can just pull through this one last time, we'll have the closest thing to a normal life ever," Cole said.

"But they'll come back, the demons. Why else would our children be destined to be the Archers?" Piper asked.

"Maybe it's not demons they have to fight. Maybe it's something else," Phoebe mused.

"That's for another day. For now, we need to get on this. We should start by going over the Bringers' list. Then we need to find other Nexuses. Paige, Cole, and Frisco can orb and shimmer around to check out possible leads. If you can get your brothers and sisters to help out, that'd be great," Leo said to Frisco. He nodded and gave Paige a kiss, before orbing out.

"Alright, let's go guys. We've got a lot of work to do... again."

Sorry for it being so short guys, but I just wanted to get Andy back. I love Andy, he's awesome. If you didn't notice, the thing that Phoebe said about their kids not going up against demons is a bit of foreshadowing. The first person to guess who they have to fight gets to plan the first chapter of the next story- Confessions of a Halliwell: The Diary of Patience. I'll give you a hint: it's a collaboration between the Avitars and someone else. So start guessing. You have until the end of this story. Good luck to all. Just thought I'd make it a little fun for you guys.

The actual story where the Archers have to fulfill their destinies- Carry On the Heritage: The Next Generation of Halliwells- will be after I write the next four stories after this one. It's kind of hard to explain. I'll give you a list of upcoming stories in the order that they will occur...

The Army of Witches 3: Back to the Grind- in progress

Confessions of a Halliwell: The Diary of Patience

Confessions of a Halliwell: The Diary of Parker

Confessions of a Halliwell: The Diary of Preston

Confessions of a Halliwell: The Diary of Persephone

I will give a summary of each of the stories in the next few chapters. For now, till next time...
