The girls were sat in a circle in the writing room, around a table where they have placed candles, a dagger and other items. The lights are out and the only source of light is from the candles.

Sheelagh: Am I the only one having the second thoughts?

Honey: Yes.

Kerry: We don't really have any other options.

Andrea: But aren't we, like, raising the dead? What if she's all...

Honey: I read The Book of Shadows very carefully. She will come back as a real live person, flesh and blood. She will have her powers too. Our powers.

Honey picks up the knife.

Sheelagh: What's that for?

She looked worried

Honey: Well, the spell works by blood calling blood, so it shouldn't hurt... much.

Honey stabs her finger.

Honey: I lied, I lied.

Kerry takes the knife off Honey, then Andrea, Becky then Jenny

Becky: Okay, come on Shee. It'll be just like the summer by the lake. Remember when we made a oath blood to be friends forever.

Sheelagh: I remember my finger got infected.

Jenny stabs her finger.

Jenny: Ow. Yeah, but the oath worked.

Jenny holds out the knife for Sheelagh

Sheelagh: And I couldn't go in the water for three weeks. Don't hand me that knife.

Jenny: How are you gonna cut yourself?

Sheelagh: I'm not.

Honey: Sheelagh...

Sheelagh: I really don't like the sight of blood.

Honey laughed

Honey: You used to be a nurse.

Kerry: Evil beings have blown up in this room...

Andrea: Disintegrated to dust right before our very eyes...

Becky: And you're afraid of a little drop of blood?

Sheelagh: Okay, just cut my finger.

She holds out her hand.

Jenny: (to Honey) You do it.

She hands Honey the knife. Sheelagh covers her eyes and Honey stabs her finger.

Sheelagh: Ow!

Andrea: Okay, here.

Andrea hold out the opened locket, they squeeze their fingers and the blood drips into the locket. Andrea closes it and places it in a bowl.

Honey: "Melinda Warren, blood of our blood..."

All: "Our great, great, great, great, great, great, grandmother."

Honey: "We summon thee."

Stardust floats through the air and Melinda appears.

Melinda: (smiles) Oh, blessed be.

They all look at each other smiling.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Honey had taken Melinda to the locker room, as Melinda was dressed 17th century, Honey had given her a dress to change into so she didn't stick out, Honey unzips the dress for her

Melinda: No, don't-don't rip the dress to make it fit me.

Honey: Oh, no, no, I'm not ripping it. It's called a zipper, see?

Honey zips up the dress, showing her how the zip works

Melinda: Oh, a wise witch made this.

Melinda takes the dress off of Honey and plays with the zipper.

Honey: Yeah, and wise witches in this century keep a low profile. You slip this dress on, you'll blend right in.

Melinda starts putting on the dress.

Melinda: It's so odd to be here again. To breathe and feel. What sheep has wool so soft?

Honey: A synthetic one.

Melinda: Oh! (Honey zips up the dress.) So did it, did it take you long to make the dress?

Honey: Make it? No, no, I bought it.

Melinda: Oh, you must be rich.

Just then the others walk in

Andrea: No, she's got credit cards.

Sheelagh: Oh, wow, Melinda, you look great.

Melinda: Thank you. Oh, but how do you keep your legs warm?

Kerry: We drink coffee.

They all laugh

Kerry: Come on

They all walk out of the Locker room and bump into Leo in the corridor

Leo: Oh

Jenny: Leo, uh, it's okay. This is, uh...

Honey: My cousin, Melinda.

Leo: Nice to meet you.

Jenny: Leo's fixing the plumbing

Melinda: What's that?

Kerry: Uh, we've got to go now.

Kerry goes to leave

Melinda: To work with one's hands is a great gift.

Leo: Well, I am a true laborer. I earn to eat, get that I wear.

Sheelagh, Becky and Honey look from Melinda to Leo and back again eyebrows raised.

Melinda: Owe no man hate, envy no man's happiness.

Leo, Melinda: Shakespeare.

Melinda giggles, Andrea, Becky and Honey look at each other with raised eyebrows

Sheelagh: Wasn't that fun? Okay, let's go now.

They walk of down the corridor and Leo walks into the male locker room to fix the plumbing in the toilets

Melinda: (to Jenny) He is a treasure, Jenny

Jenny: Why you telling me?

Melinda follows the others smiling

Melinda: Once Matthew had what he wanted, he told the town council I was a witch and they arrested me. Then they burned me at the stake.

They all sat in the canteen it was deserted and the food counter was shut up, they were the only ones in there

Andrea: Why didn't you save yourself?

Honey: Yeah, why didn't you use your powers to escape?

Melinda: I had a daughter. Her name was Jennifer. She meant everything to me. If I had used my powers, I would've proven Matthew's charge and Jennifer would've burned too. So I thought, I'll accept this and pray some kind soul will take pity on my daughter and raise her in a safe home. Only then could the Warren line continue. And it must've worked because here you are.

Sheelagh: Why do Warren witches lose their mum's so early?

Kerry glanced at her and new what she meant they both looked at Melinda who looked at them both.

Melinda: Sheelagh, I can't change the past but I think I can protect the future.

Kerry: How? Matthew is so strong and he has this wild power. He can be at one place and then another.

Melinda: In the blink of an eye?

Kerry: Exactly.

Melinda: It's called blinking. He must've copied it from another witch. I stripped him of all the powers he copied from me but who knows what others powers he still has?

Andrea: What you mean copied from you?

Melinda: Matthew's gift is to copy the power of a good witch when it's used against him.

Kerry: Then he definitely has mine.

Melinda: Once he's copied a power, it has no effect on him. Should he gain all six powers, he will be impossible to vanquish.

Jenny: So what do we do?

Melinda: We curse him back in the locket.

Becky: And if we can't?

(Silence.)
