Author's Note: There's no stopping me now! This story will have 50 chapters and chapter 50 will be the double wedding of Prue/Ryan and Piper/Leo; I found the perfect wedding ceremony! All questions from the Author's Notes at the end of the chapters will be answered before chapter 50 is posted. Thank you all for your support!
Halliwell Manor
Prue and Ryan are kissing.
"Wow!" exclaims Prue. "After all this time, we're finally engaged!"
"I know, it's so great," says Ryan, smiling.
"Let's go share our news," says Prue, as she takes his hand and they head back into the living room.
"What are you guys so happy about?" asks Clay, noticing the huge smiles on Prue and Ryan's faces as they entered the living room.
"We're engaged!" cries Prue, showing her ring.
The room erupts in screams, as everyone congratulates the newly engaged couple.
"One of my new sisters is getting married," says Paige, smiling. "This is so exciting!"
Prue and Ryan smile.
Leo hears the Elders summoning him.
"I gotta go, I'm being summoned. I'll be back as soon as I can," says Leo, orbing out.
Paige's cell phone rings.
"Excuse me," says Paige, as she picks up her phone. "Hello? Hey, Glenn. No, I'm not at my loft. But, I can meet you there; I have a lot to fill you in on. Half an hour, ok? Ok, bye."
"You own a loft?" asks Piper.
"No, I rent one on the other side of town," says Paige. "Speaking of, I gotta go. I just told my friend Glenn I'd meet him there."
"But, Paige, we in demon mode. You can't leave now," says Prue.
"Well, we don't have a plan, now do we?" replies Paige.
"True, but still, you have to stay and help," says Prue.
"Says who?" challenges Paige. "Ryan, Kelly, and Clay told me that when I became a witch I could also have a life. And I call seeing my friend having a life."
"Paige, this is a life-or-death situation, it takes precedent over meeting a friend!" cries Prue, obviously frustrated, Paige isn't listening to her and that annoys her. Prue is used to being the one everyone listens to!
"Prue, listen, I am not staying because there is no reason for me to stay here. We have no plan, no nothing. We're just sitting around, thinking. And I'm new at this, your guys thoughts are better than mine," says Paige, stubbornly. No one is going to dictate her life!
"Paige, you are not leaving this house!" screams Prue, her anger boiling.
"Watch me!" says Paige, as she heads into the foyer and opens the front door. Prue follows her.
"Paige, the Charmed Ones come first!" yells Prue, as Paige walks out and shuts the door behind her.
Prue walks back into the living room, hands on her hips.
"Dear god, she is so stubborn, pigheaded, and headstrong. I don't know where she gets it," rants Prue.
Kelly, Clay, and Ryan look at each other. They are telepathically talking to each other.
'It's a family trait,' thinks Kelly.
'It sure is. Prue has it, and Phoebe kind of had it,' thinks Clay.
'No disagreement here,' thinks Ryan.
"Guys," calls Prue, snapping her fingers. "Are you ok?"
"Huh? Uh, yeah, we're fine," says Clay, as they break their telepathic connection.
"Did you hear me?" Prue asks them.
"Yeah, you were ranting about Paige, like you rant about everything else when it annoys you," says Ryan.
Prue looks at him, and sarcastically, says, "Thanks for the support, dear fiancée."
Ryan looks at her, feeling bad.
"So, what do we do?" asks Piper.
"We summon her ass back here, that's what," says Prue.
"I meant about Amanda and the amulets," says Piper, eyeing Prue.
"Well, we need a well-crafted plan. One that Amanda won't see coming," says Kelly.
"But, what?" asks Ryan, out loud.
"What if we've been going about this thing the wrong way?" asks Clay, an idea forming.
"What are you thinking?" asks Prue.
"This whole time, we've been focusing on keeping Amanda from getting the halves of the amulet," says Clay.
"Right, because once she gets them and activates them, she becomes invincible," says Ryan.
"Right, but this whole time we should've been focusing on the amulet itself," says Clay.
"What do you mean?" asks Piper, confused.
"I get it," says Ryan, jumping on Clay's train of thought. "We should be focusing on how to destroy the amulets."
"Exactly!" exclaims Clay.
"Destroy them?" questions Kelly. "That amulet is an enormous source of power."
"It seems to be the only way," says Ryan.
"I don't know," says Prue, hesitantly. "Let's wait and see what Leo thinks."
"I think it's a good idea and so do the Elders," says Leo, orbing in. "It's the only way."
"So, how do we do it?" asks Piper, looking to Leo for guidance.
"With a potion and Power of Three spell," says Leo.
"Ok, well, then, let's get started," says Prue, taking charge. "Piper, Leo, Clay, you work on the potion. Kelly, Ryan, and I will work on the potion."
They each head off to work on their respective tasks.
Paige's Loft
Paige opens the door and enters.
"Glenn, I got your voicemail. I don't mind that you came in," says Paige, shutting the door and turning on the light.
She jumps, as she sees Glenn's tied up and Amanda standing up.
"Bring me the activation spell for the amulet or he dies!" cries Amanda, teleporting out with Glenn.
Paige stands there and pulls out her cellphone to call her sisters. They have to save Glenn!
