Some parts of this are copied from the episode, but with my modifications.
Also, I know Glory had no actual magical abilities in Buffy, just her super strength, but considering this is Charmed too, I'm gonna give her some.
No reviews, but I'm gonna post this anyway. And before any possible reviewer says anything, the spell used in this is from the original script, they just swapped 'Patricia' and 'Penny' around the next time they used it, for god knows why.
Charmed And Dangerous:
Leo let out a loud groan of pain as Piper freed the arrow from his abdomen,
"I don't understand, if you can heal other people why not yourself?" Willow asked,
"because that's not the way it works," he replied.
"Then you can switch powers with Phoebe and she can heal you like we did last time," Piper stated,
"no, if the Source attacks whitelighter powers will be useless against him," Leo objected,
"Willow, go tell Phoebe to find something else, a spell, an amulet, whatever, go!" Piper ordered, Willow nodded and headed through into the conservatory where Phoebe and Cole were.
"We have a spell, hopefully if you vanquish the Source then we'll get back our powers, if only we can get close enough to say it," Phoebe told her,
"he'll be prepared, that's why he came after Leo, why he came after our powers, he knows what we're gonna do before we even do," Willow said,
"yeah, well, I still have my power, it's not over yet," Phoebe said, exchanging glances with her boyfriend and fellow charmed one.
The Underworld
"Two down," the Seer murmured darkly,
"one to go," the Source chuckled, before noticing that his key advisor had blank eyes, signifying her search into the future, "what is it? what do you see?" he questioned,
"I see nothing,"
"what do you mean? do I or do I not have the power to stop the witches?"
"You misunderstand. I see nothing. No magic. No life. No world. The Hollow will consume everything just as I originally warned,"
"then if there's no future I have no further need for you, do I, Seer?"
"Please, I beg you, put the Hollow back where it belongs,"
"not until I'm finished, not until I've killed them all,"
"but that's madness, the Hollow won't let you stop there,"
"then so be it!" he growled, gesturing at an ancient vase and blowing it up, freezing it mid-explode.
"The witches' powers are strong, but the Hollow's are stronger," the Seer reminded,
"guard the Hollow, I have another demon to recruit," he snarled, telekinetically flinging the box that formerly contained the Hollow into her unwelcoming arms, flaming out after doing so.
The Manor
Cole opened his bedroom closet and began feeling around in the pocket of one of his jackets before pulling something out,
"what are you doing?" he asked, as Phoebe marched in and began searching through the draws,
"I'm just looking for my potion book, have you seen it anywhere?"
"I didn't think you could save Leo with a potion,"
"it's not just to save Leo, it's to save us all,"
"oh, yeah? how?"
"I-I don't know, but I can't just sit here and…" she stopped when she noticed the cream ring box in his hand, "what's that?"
"It's just a little something I've been waiting for the right moment to give you, so, will you be my wife?"
"Cole, I don't think now's the time,"
"actually, I think now's the perfect time," opening the box, he slid the diamond ring onto her finger,
"yes, I will marry you, but now you have to go," she told him, planting a quick kiss on his lips,
"no, I'm staying here with you,"
"do you want me to watch you die too?"
"if that's what it takes to save you, then yeah," he stubbornly replied.
Downstairs
"I just remembered something," Piper said, as Cole and Phoebe joined her, Tara, Willow, Leo and Patty in the sitting room,
"what?" Phoebe asked,
"in my vision, I saw some kind of demon with half a face exploding in the attic," the brunette replied.
"Vision?"
"yeah, so, does this guy work for the Source?" she questioned,
"he doesn't work for the Source, Piper, he is the Source," Cole explained, dropping a very heavy bombshell on the group which just added to the list of problems they had; now they knew what the Source looked like, they could visualise him killing them and everyone they love, and this was not going to help. Ripples gathered in the air as yet another demon appeared, he formed an energy ball and prepared to through it, leading to Patty attempting to be sneaky by using her telepathy on him, but unfortunately for her the Hollow had saw it coming and absorbed her power, though she had managed to telepathically clone his powers before this.
"Throw it!" Cole instructed, as the demon created a second, the teen through the glimmering globe and blew the demon into oblivion,
"try and read my mind," Willow told her,
"I can't, it got my powers, but, luckily…" the dark haired orphan began, "I've been working on copying other powers with my own, and I've been channelling through to the source and cloning that telepathically too,"
"what does this mean?" Tara asked,
"it means she has his powers, well at least a temporary duplication of his powers, am I right?" Piper said, Patty nodded and conjured up an energy ball to prove her point.
"Dark powers are hard to handle, you won't be able to cope," Leo croaked, as he wavered in between consciousness and it's opposite,
"but I can," Cole stated, standing up,
"no, you've just got free of evil, I'm not gonna let you go back," Phoebe argued,
"she's right…the powers will.…will fuse with your demon blood and become permanent," Leo choked,
"I told you Phoebe, I'll do anything to save you," Cole said, fear flooded Phoebe's face, along with traces of tears filling up in her eyes.
"Do it," Piper told her niece, taking Phoebe's expression as sign that she understood that this had to be done, Patty hesitantly reached out to the Book of Shadows and turned to the right page;
"What's mine is yours,
What's yours is mine,
Let our powers cross the line,
I offer up my gift to share,
Switch our powers through the air."
Bulbs of red light parted from Patty and entered Cole, an energy ball materialising in his hand,
"what other powers do you have?" Willow asked,
"time will tell," he replied,
"time is one thing we don't have," Phoebe stated.
"That's why I want you to shimmer Leo and Patty out of here," Piper told Cole,
"but…" Patty began,
"no buts," Piper strictly told her,
"take Tara too," Willow said, "I love you baby," she whispered in her girlfriend's ear, before Cole shimmered the instructed three out.
"We need to fight the Source on our territory," Phoebe said,
"but we don't have any territory without our powers," Willow interjected,
"and, not to sound like a school bully, but your powers are gonna be kinda useless against him Pheebs," Piper said, Phoebe shrugged and put her folded spell into her back pocket.
The Underworld
"You fear me, I can hear your thoughts with the young one's power," the Source said,
"I do not fear you, my liege, I fear the Hollow," the Seer replied, glancing over at the ornate box which currently held the magical black hole.
"Fear as you may, soon it will not be needed, after I destroy the power of three forever,"
"get in line," a female voice said, as Glory appeared out of swirling red light balls, similar to the way spirits appeared, except her lights were accompanied by crackling bolts of the same scarlet colour,
"globing," the Seer noted, "she must be a Higher Being, rid of her now,"
"hey, globing isn't just for Higher Beings…" Glory began,
"it's for hellgods too," he finished. The Seer's eyes widened in awe,
"you have plenty of hell dimensions, I rule this underworld, and soon I will rule every world, so leave, NOW!" the Source told her, his voice growing into a roar as he completed his sentence.
"Jeez, calm down, I just came to strike a deal; I'll share my power with you so you can kill the charmed ones, if you help me get my Key from them," the blonde told him,
"deal," the Source instantly hissed, gesturing at the box and releasing the Hollow into himself,
"my liege, this is suicide," the Seer said,
"silence!" he roared, before motioning for Glory to use her powers on him. She agreed and fired a handful of plummeting red lights, blowing him up long enough for the Hollow to absorb the magic and then his molecules reconstituted.
"Remember, find me my Key," Glory reminded, as flames began to blaze around the Source,
"I beg of you to stop this now," the Seer pleaded,
"I have another power to receive, another demon to recruit," he stubbornly said, walking away and flaming out mid-stride.
The Manor
"Okay, so we have a vanquishing spell, but still no way of getting the Source here," Piper stated,
"how 'bout the spell to call our powers, it might be strong enough to draw them out of the Hollow," Phoebe suggested,
"or at least drag the Source here," Willow added,
"it's worth a shot," Piper nodded, walking over to where the book sat on the conservatory table. After a few flipped pages, the trio cast the spell:
"Powers of the witches rise,
Course unseen across the skies,
Come to us who call you near,
Come to us and settle here."
A plume of hot, blazing, fire rose from the floor and became the Source,
"you rang?" he chuckled evilly, his deformed face illuminating in the light of the room,
"what do we do?" Willow asked,
"run!" Piper replied. They raced through the sitting room and even had to jump over the sofa as he threw a fire ball and narrowly missed,
"we need to get to the attic," Piper said,
"watch out!" Phoebe yelled, as a fire ball rocketed her big sister into the wall,
"c'mon, we can do this," the clairvoyant said, helping Willow to get Piper upstairs. They rested Piper near the back of the attic, and, while Phoebe tried to wake her, Willow looked for things to attack the Source with,
"crystals," Phoebe whispered to herself,
"crystals?" Willow repeated,
"last year, Prue created a cage using crystals, if we can get six of them around the Source it should trap him," the brunette replied.
"I've found some," Willow said, opening a cardboard shoebox filled with chunky crystals,
"just in time," Phoebe said, as the Source flamed in. The psychic stood up and spun a levitating kick into the Underworld King, throwing him to the floor and giving Willow a chance to place four crystals down.
"Your power was always the weakest, hardly worth taking, your life however…" he snarled, as he came back up and Willow put down the fifth crystal, tossing Phoebe the sixth and watching as she set it down to create a dome of mystical bolts.
"It seems almost anti-climactic after all this time doesn't it?" he said, telekinetically sliding a crystal away and diminishing the cage,
"the spell," Piper coughed,
"is something you can't cast if your dead," he said, forming a fire ball, "say hello to Prue for me."
"Why? too lazy to say it yourself?" a familiar voice asked, as he turned to see the spirit of the former charmed one herself,
"Prue," Piper gasped, whereas Willow just smiled at the ghost and Phoebe's jaw dropped,
"you're dead," the Source growled, "you can't defeat me,"
"no, but they can," Prue said, nodding to her charmed ones as they unfolded the spell,
"no!" he bellowed, creating a fire ball. However, he had no chance to throw it when Prue telekinetically moved back the crystal and recreated the energy cage,
"Prudence, Patricia, Penelope, Melinda,
Astrid, Helena, Laura, and Grace,
Halliwell witches stand strong beside us,
Vanquish this evil from time and space."
Heat swept through the room as the Source met a fiery and vicious end.
"Prue," Piper whispered, a breeze brushing passed them as they failed to see the raven haired deceased,
"she's gone," Phoebe murmured,
"we did it," Willow said,
"we did," Piper nodded, leaning her shoulder on Phoebe as she took a deep breath in hopes of regaining her energy and to ease her wounds.
The Underworld
"Dumb ass," Glory cursed, feeling her powers returned to her and then globing out,
"what was needed was done, now the Hollow must be obtained," the Seer said, scooping up the box and vanishing from sight.
The Manor
"Quick, say this chant with me," the stranger who had just appeared before the charmed ones said,
"who are you?" Piper asked, sitting down on the loveseat,
"somebody who just helped save your life, now come," the Seer replied, motioning for one of them to join her. Phoebe shuffled over and held the Seer's shoulders as they said the strange language, watching as the box lifted from the Seer's hands and magically returned to where it belonged.
"Too bad Belthazar's gone, he would have made a great Source," the Seer said, glancing at Phoebe before fading away. Shimmers and orbs gathered in the air and morphed into Leo, Cole, Patty and Tara,
"your healed," Piper said, seeing her husband,
"and now so are you," he smiled, joining her on the loveseat and releasing a golden glow over her.
"But how?" Phoebe questioned,
"mom, it was her, it was really her," Patty replied, gazing into space as salty liquid glimmered in her eyes, Piper stood up and held her niece softly,
"she healed you?" Willow asked, Leo nodded,
"becoming a spirit must have given Prue advanced and new abilities," Cole said,
"so, technically, she's more like a goddess than a spirit," Tara said. The group smiled,
"you hear that sweetie, your mom's a goddess," Piper said to Patty, stroking her hair and then hugging her again.
To be continued…
