Creepy House
"Phoebe?" questions Piper, not believing her eyes.
"Yes, dear sisters, it's me," says Phoebe.
"Oh My God!" cry Prue and Piper as they try to hug Phoebe.
Phoebe raises her hand and Prue and Piper are thrown into the wall.
"What the hell?" asks Paige.
"I don't do hugs anymore. I'm evil," says Phoebe, smiling evilly.
"That's not Phoebe," cries Prue, as she and Piper get up.
"Oh yes, it is Prue. Or do you not recognize the pain in my voice?" asks Phoebe, sadistically.
"What are you talking about?" asks Prue, not getting it.
"Oh, Prue, you caused me so much pain in my life. You pushed me away, shunned me, and were such a bitch to me. You're the reason I'm dead!" screams Phoebe.
"No, it's not true," says Prue.
"Oh, yes it is, Prue, and we both know it," says Phoebe.
"Phoebe, stop this," says Piper.
"Oh, Piper, come on, don't be so naïve. We both know this is the true me. Or at least the me you were always afraid of," says Phoebe.
"What?" asks Piper.
"You were always afraid that I would turn evil and here I am, as evil as could be. And I'm evil because you didn't love me enough!" cries Phoebe.
"That's not true!" cries Piper, tears threatening to flow.
"Oh, it is," says Phoebe.
"Why are you doing this, Phoebe?" asks Paige.
"Oh, Paige, don't even talk to me. You don't even know me. You are not good enough to be part of the Power of Three, you aren't worthy of being a Charmed One," says Phoebe.
"Yes, I am," says Paige, her voice shaky.
"No, you're not. You're a worthless piece of shit," says Phoebe.
"NO!" cries Paige.
Prue, Piper, and Paige huddle in a corner, together.
"This isn't Phoebe, don't listen to her," says Prue, as Phoebe approaches them.
Suddenly, they reappear in the Manor. They are in the living room, next to the fireplace.
"It worked!" exclaims Ryan, happy.
"What happened?" asks Piper, as she and her sisters get up.
"Using the amulet, the Seer sent you guys to a haunted house in another dimension," says Kelly.
"But, thanks to Anthony's information source, we were able to bring you back," says Clay, smiling.
"Why were you guys huddling in the corner?" asks Leo, confused.
"Phoebe was there, at least it looked like Phoebe, and she was saying such horrible things to us," says Prue, relieved to be home.
"It was the power of the amulet," says Leo. "It wasn't really Phoebe, it was an illusion."
"Wait, where's Glenn?" asks Paige, suddenly remembering him.
"I knocked him out and sent him back to his apartment," says Ryan. "Paige, you should go talk to him soon."
"I will, after we vanquish the Seer and destroy the amulet," says Paige, as her sisters nod.
"We're all ready for that," says Kelly, pulling out 2 potions and 3 spells.
She hands them to the sisters.
"What's the extra spell for?" asks Piper.
"To separate the Seer from the amulet," explains Ryan.
"Let's go," says Leo, as they orb/teleport out.
Underworld
Everyone orbs/teleports in.
They find the Seer waiting for them.
"I knew you'd get back and then come for me," says the Seer.
The sisters gather together and Prue pulls one of the spells out of her pocket
"We call upon the Power of Three,
Separate her from this powerful entity," recite Prue, Piper, and Paige aloud and in unison. The amulet flies off the Seer's neck and into Prue's hand.
Kelly quickly waves her hand and throws the Seer into the wall.
Piper throws one of the potions at the Seer's feet.
"Phoebe, Patricia, Penelope, Melinda, Astrid, Helena, Laura, and Grace,
We vanquish this evil in this place,
While calling on the Halliwell line,
Her face we now erase," recite Prue, Piper, and Paige aloud and in unison.
The Seer screams in agony and explodes in flames.
"Now that the Seers' gone, do we still destroy the amulet?" asks Clay.
"Yes, you do," says Leo.
"Why?" asks Piper, confused. "Now that's Amanda's gone, the halves of the amulet can be split between two covens for safeguarding again."
"No, they can't," says Leo. "The Elders told me that the Seer cast a spell to enchant the halves of the amulet for evil. Her spell was powerful enough to make the amulet a source of enormous evil power."
The sisters nod as Paige throws the potion.
"From ancient times this power came,
For all to have but none to remain,
We call upon the Power of Three,
To destroy this neutral entity," recite Prue, Piper, and Paige aloud and in unison. The amulet turns to dust.
(A/N: The first 2 lines of the spell used to destroy the amulet were taken from Charmed Season 7, Episode 22, "Something Wicca This Way Goes…?")
"Ok, well, at least that part of the nightmare is over," says Piper, as everyone nods.
"Let's go home," says Ryan, as they orb/teleport home.
Halliwell Manor-2 Hours Later
Paige walks into the living room from the foyer. Everyone is sitting around.
"Paige, listen, Piper and I have been talking. If you trust Glenn with our secret, then so do we," says Prue, smiling. They have to start building the bonds of trust!
"Really?" asks Paige, a smiling forming. She thought her sisters were gonna make Leo use memory dust on Glenn.
"Yes, really," says Prue.
"See, now you'll have one person to talk to outside the family about your magic," says Piper.
"And let's keep it at one," says Prue.
Paige nods. "Speaking of, Prue, I have to tell you that you were right. Being a witch is the most important thing in my life. I now see that it does come before everything else."
Prue and Paige smile at each other, a mutual understanding.
Piper smiles, as Leo orbs in.
"Hey, honey," says Piper, kissing him.
"Hey," says Leo. "Piper, can we talk?"
"What's wrong?" asks Piper, worried.
"Piper, when you and your sisters disappeared, I thought I lost you forever," says Leo. "And I realized at that moment that I can't live without you for another second."
Leo gets down on one knee and pulls out a small velvet box. "Piper Halliwell, you are the love and light of my life. Will you marry me?"
Piper eyes well up with tears.
"Yes, Leo, I'll marry you," says Piper, as Leo opens the box and slips the ring on her finger. It is a 3 and ½ carrot diamond ring.
Leo gets up and they kiss.
Prue, Paige, Ryan, Kelly, and Clay clap and congratulate the newly engaged couple.
"Piper, this is so great. We could have a double wedding," says Prue, grinning from ear to ear.
"That's a great idea," says Piper, smiling.
Also, here is the story of what really happened between Prue and Ryan:
-Penny Halliwell knew that she was going to die, through dreams (prophecies.) She did not want to die and leave her granddaughters to discover and learn how to use their powers on their own. Penny knew they would need guidance!
-So, she came up with a plan…
-Ryan Scott, a family friend, was a very experienced witch. Penny knew that he would be the perfect person to guide Prue, Piper, and Phoebe. She knew that it would be 3 years until she died, but her plan would have to be put into action right away. Penny decided that she would start with Prue, since she was the oldest. She spoke with Ryan and they planned everything (except for them falling in love with each other.) Kelly, Prue's best friend and also a witch, had been Ryan's girlfriend at the time.
-Once Prue had accepted her new destiny and had begun training with Ryan (and were falling in love with each other,) he could no longer hold back and proclaimed his love for her. Prue admitted that she also loved him. But, they had a problem: They were both involved with other people. They decided to sneak around and everything went off fine, until 3 and ½ years ago, Phoebe walked in on Prue and Ryan having sex. Ryan, using a spell from the Book of Shadows, erased Phoebe's memory and then Prue and Ryan decided to split up because it was too complicated for them. Ryan went to Las Vegas to live with his cousin because Phoebe had told Kelly what she had seen and Kelly dumped Ryan and moved to New York.
-Right after Grams died, Prue wrote Ryan a letter telling him of a plan that she had. She wanted to use a spell to make Phoebe and Roger be together, so she could break off her engagement with Roger and so when Phoebe left for New York, Prue would have more of a reason to want Phoebe to stay there. If Phoebe never returned, then her, Piper, and Phoebe would never fulfill their destiny and Piper and Phoebe wouldn't receive their powers. Prue didn't want her sisters to get their powers because she didn't want to share. Ryan sent her a spell and she cast it and everything worked out perfectly!
-Little did they know that Kelly had returned to San Francisco. She had followed everything that Ryan and Prue had done (before and after she left, and while she was still there) and vowed revenge on Ryan!
