Author's Note: I am desperately trying to write as many chapters as I can before school starts. It is currently August 29, 2005, and I start school September 5, 2005. So, there are 10 days until I start school! Once school starts, I will become very busy and not have as much time to write. I absolutely love this story; I have brought it so far in such a short amount of time! I promise to finish it no matter what!
Anyway, here's chapter 41. I hope you enjoy it!

Underworld-Amanda's Chambers

Everyone appears in whitelights.

"Welcome to my humble abode!" says Amanda, grinning.

"We're ready for you this time, Amanda," says Ryan, confidently.

Amanda hurls a fireball at them but Clay puts up his deflection shield.

"You guys got chutzpa, I'll give you that much," says Amanda, walking around her chamber. "I mean coming here to my chambers, that takes guts."

"We've got more than guts," says Prue, threateningly. "We've got power!"

"Oh, what should I be scared?" asks Amanda, mockingly.

"Yes, actually, you should," says Piper, as she and her sisters join hands.

"Because we've got the Power of Three and nothing is stronger than that," says Paige.

Amanda releases a wave of 5 energyballs.

Prue squints her eyes and the energyballs are redirected back at Amanda, knocking her slightly back.

"I just gotta try harder," says Amanda, conjuring two huge lightning bolts and hurling it at them.

"Reversano!" cries Kelly, as the lightning bolts are sent back at Amanda, knocking her into the wall.

"Piper, hurry, try to freeze her," says Leo.

Piper raises her hands and Amanda freezes. She then begins to break out of the freeze.

"Hurry, throw the potion," yells Ryan.

Prue pulls the potion out of her pocket and throws it at Amanda's feet.

Amanda completely breaks through the freeze.

"Not to shabby," says Amanda. "Try this one on for size!"

She raises her hands but nothing happens.

"What the hell?" cries Amanda, looking at her hands. "Why aren't my powers working?"

"Because we bound your powers," says Piper, smirking.

"NO!" cries Amanda, approaching them.

Clay raises his arm and sends Amanda into the wall.

"Paige, you're up," says Prue.

Paige pulls out the pillowcase.

"Grimoire!" calls Paige, as it disappears in whitelights and reappears inside the pillowcase.

"TTFN!" says Ryan, grinning, as they all orb/teleport out.

Amanda is left standing alone in her chamber, powerless.

Halliwell Manor-Future

Everyone orbs/teleports into the living room. They find Andy and Anthony sitting on the couch, concerned looks on their faces.

"What's wrong?" asks Prue, worried.

"It's the kids," says Andy, sadly.

"What about them?" asks Piper, fear creeping into her voice.

"They've been kidnapped by a demon," says Anthony, sadly.

Prue and Piper look at their husbands, and then burst into tears.

"How, how could this happen?" asks Paige, near tears herself. She loves her nieces and nephew so much!

At this point, Prue and Piper are on the floor, crying on the shoulders of the men they love.

"We were in the nursery with the kids and this demon shimmered in. I tried to get to the kids, to orb the, out, but the demon knocked me out," says Anthony, visibly upset.

"And then I tried using some of my new found martial arts skills but the demons throw an energyball at me, knocking me into the wall. The last thing I saw was him shimmering out with the kids," says Andy, crying silently.

"So, what do we do?" asks Paige, wiping her tears away.

"We already looked through the Book and found the demon," says Anthony, pointing to the Book on the coffee table. It is open to the page entitled, "Belthazor."

"That's not possible, we vanquished Belthazor," says Ryan, seeing the page from his position on the floor with Prue crying on his shoulder.

"Yeah, he's right. We killed Belthazor after he killed Victor," says Kelly.

"Well, he was definitely the demon," says Andy.

"Maybe Amanda resurrected him with the Resurrection Spell from the Grimoire," suggests Leo.

"Very possible," says Anthony, on the same thought train as Leo.

"Speaking of, you guys have to destroy the Grimoire," says Kelly.

"Are you guys up for it?" asks Paige, kneeling next to her sisters. She can only imagine what type of pain they must be in. Even though they didn't really know the kids, because they were from a different time, it was still the pain of a mother losing a child!

"Yeah," says Prue, wiping away her tears.

"Let's do it," says Piper, as she and Prue get up.

"Here's the new spell," says Ryan, handing it to Paige.

"Why a new spell?" asks Prue, trying to hold it together.

"Just in case," says Leo.

The sisters gather together.

"Hear these words,
Hear our cry,
Spirits far and wide,
We call upon the Power of Three,
To destroy this evil entity," recite Prue, Piper, and Paige aloud and in unison. The Grimoire explodes in flames.

"At least that's taken care of," says Piper, as she touches the chair and is struck with a premonition.

Flash. Amanda releasing a fireball. Belthazor and Amanda together, the kids tied up. Amanda being coronated as the new Source. End Flash.

"Piper, did you just have a premonition?" asks Prue, confused. "I thought I got that power."

"Actually, once the Power of Three was reconstituted, the Elders decided it would be a power for all three of you to share," explains Leo.

"Ok, well, what'd you see?" asks Kelly.

"Amanda, she had her powers back. And I also saw her and Belthazor together and I saw the kids tied up. I also saw Amanda being coronated as the new Source," says Piper. She isn't using to getting premonitions!

"That must mean she found a way around our potion," says Clay. "But, how is she being coronated without the Grimoire?"

"They must have the ritual written down," offers Anthony.

"Oh, this is so not good!" says Paige.

"It's ok, we'll work all this out. At least we know where the kids and Belthazor and Amanda are now," says Ryan.

"New plan. We will make a potion to vanquish both Belthazor and the Source, aka Amanda. We'll also write vanquishing spells for them. And for the spell to vanquish Amanda, we'll combine it with the Source vanquishing spell and a spell to vanquish an evil witch. We'll use the same spell we used before to get to Amanda's chamber," says Prue, taking charge again. Being in control helps Prue take her mind off of her daughter! "Piper, you, Andy, and Kelly will work on the Belthazor vanquishing potion. Clay, you, and Anthony, will work on the Source/Amanda vanquishing potion. Paige, you, and Leo will work on the Belthazor vanquishing spell. Ryan, you and I work on the Source/Amanda vanquishing spell."

Everyone heads off to work on their respective tasks.

25 minutes later everyone reassembles in the living room.

"Everyone set?" asks Prue.

They nod.

"Ok, here we go," says Piper, as she and her sisters gather together.

"Andy and I'll stay here incase Amanda or Belthazor return," says Anthony.

Everyone nods.

"3D places as we know,
The shield right now we will throw,
We call upon the Power of Three,
Take us to where we wish to be," recite Prue, Piper, and Paige aloud and in unison, as everyone disappears in whitelights.
