Author's Note: YAY! I now have 1,026 Hits, which is so phenomenal! I am so incredibly happy with how many people are reading this story; it's just so wonderful! When I write these chapters, I always listen to music. It helps me focus, concentrate, and hone my skills! If others do something else, that's great! I'm all for whatever works and for me, music works!
Anyway, here's chapter 32. I hope you enjoy it!
Halliwell Manor-Living Room
Prue, Ryan, and Anthony enter, to see Piper with Paige.
"I brought Paige," says Piper, as she motions for Paige to sit.
"What the hell is going on?" asks Paige, freaked out.
Piper freezes her.
"We have a major problem," says Anthony.
"Anthony, can you take Andy someplace safe while Piper and I talk to Paige?" asks Prue.
"Ok, but we have a problem and it cannot wait very long," says Anthony.
"But, it can wait until after we reconstitute the Charmed Ones," says Piper.
"Fine," relents Anthony.
"Where are you taking me?" asks Andy, as he gets up.
"You'll see," says Anthony, as he takes Andy's hand and they orb out.
Anthony's voice can still be heard. "When you're done, we have to talk."
"I'm gonna go," says Ryan, teleporting out.
Prue watches him leave and stares. She does love him, but what was she going to do? He would leave soon, unless she gave him a reason not to.
Piper unfreezes Paige.
"Where'd those other 2 people go?" asks Paige, referring to Andy and Anthony.
"They, um, left," says Piper.
"Can someone please tell me what's going on?" asks Paige.
"Paige, have you ever believed that you had sisters?" asks Prue.
"Actually, I thought that I was related to you guys," says Paige, nervously.
"What do you mean?" asks Piper, confused.
"I did a little searching and I found out that my birth mother was Patricia Halliwell. And that she had 3 daughters, which are you guys and Phoebe," explains Paige.
"What would you say if we said you were right, that we were related to you?" asks Prue.
Paige sits there, obviously shocked.
"Remember how you cell phone suddenly appeared in your hand before?" asks Piper.
Paige nods.
"Well, that's because you're a witch. We all are," says Piper.
"A witch?" asks Paige, not thinking it was so out there. When her cell appeared in her hand, it was like magic.
"Yes, watch," says Prue.
Prue raises her hand and moves a book on the coffee table and as it's in the air, Piper raises her hand and the book freezes.
"Whoa! What was that?" asks Paige.
"Magic," says Piper, as the book unfreezes and slams into the wall.
"Do you believe us?" asks Prue, hopefully. The Power of Three needed to be reconstituted and as soon as possible!
Suddenly, Amanda teleports in.
"Whoa!" cries Paige.
"Hello, Prue, Piper," says Amanda.
"Who are you?" asks Prue, standing in front of Piper.
"I'm Amanda, pleased to meet you," says Amanda, extending her hand.
Prue raises her arm and throws Amanda into the wall.
"Obviously, this won't be a pleasant visit," says Amanda, as she gets up.
Amanda raises her hand and 3 bolts of lightning come out of her hand.
Piper freezes them. In the meantime, Amanda teleports next to Paige.
"Help!" cries Paige, as Prue and Piper turn around.
"Get away from her!" threatens Piper.
"You can't stop me," says Amanda, as she waves her hand at Prue and Piper.
Prue raises her arm, but nothing happens.
"What the hell?" asks Prue, trying again but to no avail.
"I put a temporary block on your powers," says Amanda, smiling devilishly.
Piper tries to freeze Amanda but it doesn't work. "You bitch!"
Before Prue or Piper can react, Amanda teleports out with Paige.
"No!" cries Piper.
"Leo, Anthony!" calls Prue.
Leo and Anthony orb in, whilst Kelly and Clay teleport in.
"Where were you guys?" asks Prue, referring to Kelly and Clay.
"Leo and Anthony sent us out to do a little recon," says Clay.
Prue and Piper look at them, confused.
"It was about what I mentioned before, the major problem," says Anthony.
"What happened here?" asks Kelly. "I thought you were bringing Paige back here to talk to her."
"We did, but Amanda took her," says Piper.
"So, now she has one of the amulets and Paige," says Leo.
"What'd I miss?" asks Ryan, teleporting in.
"Uh, what's going on?" asks Prue, confused.
"Amanda stole a powerful amulet from a witch and then killed her," says Leo.
"But, why would she want that amulet?" asks Piper, not getting it.
"Because it's one half of an ancient charm. Whoever connects the two amulets together, more than doubles, it protects your power. With it they become invincible," explains Anthony.
"And who has the other half?" asks Prue.
"Another witch. The amulets were divided between two local covens for safe keeping, but the bearers have always been kept secret, guarded even from them," says Leo.
"So, if Amanda gets the two amulets she'll basically become unstoppable?" asks Ryan.
"Yes," says Anthony, solemnly.
"But, then why would she need Paige?" asks Kelly, confused.
"Because the spell to activate the 2 amulets is in the Book of Shadows. And the Book of Shadows sees Amanda as a threat, as someone evil. She technically isn't, but because of her intentions and actions and such, the Book won't let her touch it. Yet, the amulets won't see her as evil," explains Leo. "But, Paige, is good. The Book would allow her to touch it, because not only is she good, but is also a Charmed One and it is her book too."
(A/N: The idea involving the amulets and some of these lines were taken from Charmed Season 3, Episode 20, "Exit Strategy.")
"Uh-oh! So, you mean she's gonna use Paige to activate the amulets?" asks Piper, getting it.
"Exactly, but, first she needs to find the other witch and get the other half," says Anthony.
"Ok, having 2 whitelighters is freaky!" exclaims Prue.
"So, now we need to find the other witch and stop Amanda from getting the amulet," says Piper.
"Right, but you won't be any match for her without the Power of Three. Alone, she is powerful and with one half of the amulet is incredibly powerful," explains Leo.
"We're one witch short of the Power of Three," says Prue, sadly.
Prue, Piper, Ryan, Leo, Clay, and Kelly stare on.
