ACT 3 AT THE HIDDEN TERRAINS
A witch in her last breath, crawling away from her aggressor, but she's not getting any far as blood comes gushing through the wounds in her lower chest after being impaled by a spear. A warlock stands behind her, watching the agony, three more warlocks shimmered in, enjoying the sight before them. One of the warlocks' raised his hands an unseen force waved out and the crawling witch screamed in pain as her half-life body totally become a dried lifeless corpse. A sinister laughter filters the atmosphere. An identical event is also taking place some where, in the underground, in dark alleys, within a lone shrouded park, abandoned factories, one or more female and male witches slaughtered to death by these powerful legions. Only a few attained to lost their evil hunters. Some of them merely saved by their Whitelighters. But even their blue orbing guardians weren't safe from their dark counterparts. Darklighters have already wage war on them right in the beginning of this monstrous invasion of the human plane. Whitelighters thrust by arrows which surely will kill them, the same as their charges, they have no choice but to flee. A number of them fought back, but they weren't that strong to outclass their enemies as Darklighters agreed to team-up with these elite Legions of Darkness, accompanied by savage beast. One particular warlock who agreed and joined this killing spree for good witches is Eames.
On the other hand, Kyle had helped some of the hunted witches who escaped, healing those who he can. He orbed them at magic school for sanctuary. Andy also doing the same, while dodging arrows, that will surely kill him for the second time. He adheres to his charges call, even if it means danger. The only thing is Luck , which comes after him, that's why he happened to orb some of his dying charges at magic school. Both he and Kyle are feeling the subsiding of their energy, as if their drained by this evil aura. Although fortunate, that their far from Darklighter arrows, they thought that their dying would be more sooner if this madness continue. A voice was heard calling at them. They quickly orb to the Manor.
UNKNOWN ZONE
The Cloven Hood Boros, being informed by his Loyal magician, of the progress of his hellish scheme.
Boros: I can see it now, just a little time, and this world will be the
Home of Darkness, sooner or later disease like humans will
Be gone. How's the death order going for the elders?
Haku: we can't trace the elders, as well as the avatars, most of the
Whitelighters were eradicated, as well as their charges. Others
Retreated and there's no where to find them
Boros: let them run! Like fearful rats!
Haku: master, some of the demons and warlocks we summoned have
Already fallen. Powerful witches defeated them. They
Are called The Charmed Ones, for years they remain invincible,
Even , the Titans and The source..
Boros: The Power of Three, the very power that this ordinary warlocks
Feared most, even higher level demons were outshined. But
Me…….
Haku: my lord! I already ordered some of our allies, to attack Magic
School. This time they will surely pound its shield down
Boros: hold it! Tell them to retreat! I have a better plans of having
Fun… All those who opposes me will die from where I shall rise
( a very infernal laughter soars its evil terrains)
THE MANOR (late afternoon)
Paige and Henry orb about an hour ago, bringing with her magic books that they can use as a defense as well as an offense. Phoebe have completed several potions that she combined. Billie also made her own type of potions as an addition and checked the Book Of Shadows additional protection. Cole for the rest of the day just pacing the manor, or at time chatting with Pheobe (something might be rekindled, but it seems Phoebe is just casual, she did got over). Yet still keeping his self alert at any possible demon assaults. Leo making himself useful, assisting Phoebe and Billie at times, then keeping his eyes on Wyatt and Chris who happily plays with their grandpa Victor. Victor, who would surely like to help but his not of that magical interloper, and the best thing for him is to be with his grand sons. But even if he has no power magically, he will put his safety on the line for them. In the dining room, orb Kyle and Andy, expecting a team conference. Couple of minutes passed. Prue and Piper along with Keith, came from the front door. Prue's voice echoing in the hallway, calling for every body. Prue called everyone's attention at the sun room. Keith hold still, at the hallway near the front door and draw his both hands chant a short incantation. A wave of aura lit all over the place. Outside, the Manor was covered with a transparent force. Billie saw Keith
Billie: what in the hell did you just do?
Keith: pardon for not asking permission, I shielded this place.
Billie: (nodding sidewards).. let's go to them
Prue: all right all of you! Piper and I just face another breed of de….
Mons… no… monsters…Beast! Worst they keep dropping out
Of no where. Which literally means their doorways is now loose.
Phoebe: warlocks, demons and now monsters.
Piper: not just monsters huge monsters!
Prue: and Piper here just acquired a new power, she can now phase.
You know ghost like abilities, as if passing thru solid matter
Paige: why am I being left behind? I hate the three of you…(sarcastically)
The conference is now going on. Billie walk in them as Keith followed. She told
everyone that Keith did a magical shield on the manor, against any intruders.
Piper: does this force field of yours really work?
Keith: at least it should
Paige: at least? Well who are you anyway?
Keith: I'm Keith, a warrior, I came here tracing an aura, to put
An end to this…and to assist the Charmed Ones
Prue: He… saved us from those ugly boogeymen, and in an instant
Cut them to sushi's
Paige: a hero on the rescue
Prue: Ok! Keith you told me earlier you know something about
This demon? And you have a way of stopping these
Keith: I came here for the diamond, the only thing that can kill Boros
Prue: Who's Boros?
Keith: the one responsible for all of these
Piper: Boros, what a name, what diamond?
Keith: to be honest with all of you, I don't know, that's why I'm finding it
Piper: oh great! demon hunting, now treasure hunting
Phoebe: are we getting somewhere here?
Prue: What do you know about Boros?
Keith: don't you have an idea who he is?
Paige: mister man in black, we wouldn't be talking if not for this
Prue: can you just drop it on? (slightly upset, demanding tone)
Keith: Boros is an extremely powerful being
All ears on Keith while he tells what the tales of this ancient evil was,
Keith: He is a ruler, a God like of a dark world which as of now it's origin is still unknown. It is believed to be around for over 20,000 years. Boros has been carefully watching our world while anonymously shrouding him-self. He is a technically powerful and skilled of Mysticism and Black arts. He has spies he sends in the mortal territory to watch every event, until he came to a plan of merging his dark realm into our world. But some of the ancient supreme beings and wise men learnt of this. They created an alliance of good warriors, who will put an end to Boros plan. But their plan failed as Boros have already taken control of other worlds and planes in which monsters and creatures have joined his quest. The light legions engaged in a brutal war; some were ambush before they can even make a step. The Supremes and Wise men have gotten to seal his dark world at least by creating an energy barrier to obstruct the fusion, and even managing to eliminate Boros armies, but they too perished. The remaining survivors of the Light Legions have no choice but to retreat and hide, passing the message to the next generation but remained in secrecy. As well as Boros, he maintained silence for millenniums, stayed in a world where no High Powers can follow him, that the next Supremes and Wise Men have forgotten his existence. Only getting information from his spies, waiting for the right time to exact his dream.
Phoebe: woh…our magical origin is not that kind of old, no wonder why
It wasn't written in the book of shadows. And about right time
Your saying, maybe this is his chosen time (Keith Nod at them)
So……… lucky for us (sarcastically)
Piper: if there's an energy barrier to prevent the fusion, how was it destroyed?
Keith: according to them, Boros have been gathering enough power
For many, many millennia, been crafting his evil magic to be
Able to wreck havoc into this earth
Prue: and no elders have notice, or even these Light legions!
Piper: what the hell are they? Fat slothful doughnuts, sleeping their job!
Keith: you should not blame the ancient ones! Boros is a very lethal,
master of stealth, clandestine and Black Arts. An expert in
Necromancy
Paige: (choking) that…is a slight overstatement…
Billie: are you really sure about all of this?
Keith: yes, I am
Prue: (standing with authority) you said it yourself, he has skilled
spies, how do we know you're not deceiving us?
After hearing Prue, Every one of them stood beside her almost circling Keith and all eyes on him with a hint of suspicion. Keith looks around at each of them none where giving him nice look. Since his a telepath he can read their heads. Phoebe is an empath, she can read his feelings.
Phoebe: she's telling the truth, I can feel inside of him.
Keith: thanks!
Paige: can you go on with your history session
Piper: having known all of these than the Elders are you a Light legion?
Keith: I'm one of the descendants.
Prue: we've learn something from history huh.., so how do we stop it
and put those barriers again?
Keith: the Wise men always said the diamond can stop Boros madness
But no one knows where to find the diamond, or how to prevent
The fusion, they died right after they hold Boros down, and
Our world for the coming millennia
Phoebe: unfortunately, not this time
They all looked worried after the storytelling of a brutal history. Keith
sensed a very strange aura. A wicked aura. His eyes are wandering around the manor.
Leo: what's going on with you?
Keith: another presence is nearby
All of them, stood alert, for an assault anytime soon
Keith: I' have to face him. (in snap, he teleported)
Billie: whoa!..where the hell did he go?
Cole: trying to spare us, maybe
Prue: what?
Cole: someone's coming
Kyle: we need to get back to our charges, their calling us (orb out with Andy)
Prue and Phoebe went to the front window to see what's going on.
Prescott is dead silent. Gloomy clouds starts to roll by, sunlight is already singing out. Phoebe suddenly got a premonition.
Premonition:
A flock of demons are outside the front of the manor, each with a fireball in their hands. Then a blast rained the manor, but it all deflected coz of the shield. Eames shimmered in along with an ugly beast.
Prue: what did you see Pheebs? (holding her sisters back)
Phoebe: hordes of demons standing in front of our house, showering
it with fireballs, then Eames came in with some monsters.
Piper: never dreamed of anything like this..
Prue: Piper, Paige, Billie! ready all the potions, Phoebe
Phoebe: I'm Ok..
Paige: Henry, you better take cover, this is really …
Henry: I know, but don't wanna be helpless, watching while something
is Happening to my wife (he hugged her)
Paige: you should trust me and them, we'll be fine (kisses her husband)
Piper: Leo, orb the boys to magic school, and take Dad with them
He went upstairs to do so. At the kids room. Victor playing with his grand sons. Even though he hates to be helpless, he's choice less
Leo: Victor, we gotta take cover for a while.
Victor: where?
Leo: magic school, we'll take Wyatt and Chris there
Victor: something's not good Leo? What's going on? Where are they?
Leo: downstairs, they told us to go somewhere safe, and Magic School
Is the place.
Victor hurried downstairs. He saw her daughters and the others in hurry preparing for something, like soldiers waiting for a war
Victor: Prue, what's happening?
Prue: Dad, we cant explain right now, you and Leo with my nephews
Should orb right now to magic school, you're much safer there.
Piper: don't worry daddy, we can handle it
Victor unknown what to say, but really worried about her daughters. Leo along with Wyatt and Chris hold his and then orb out.
Prue: everyone ready?
Paige: yup, all set and loaded
Piper and Paige behind the couch, Phoebe and Bille at the dining room clearing the dining table for space. Cole and Henry eying in the kitchen as they lock the doors. Prue is near the stairs waiting at the hall way.
At a matter of seconds, the manor is shaking. Rains of blast and energy projectiles are pounding it. Yet those blast were unable to penetrate within, coz of the shield.
Continuous screech of scorching fireballs, but the shield is holding them. The demons have felt innocent presence, before they get notice they vanished for a while. As the Halliwells and company are on their positions. Everything went silent, the showering in their house stopped.
Paige: strange (looking at her everyone)
Prue: just keep your eyes sharp,
Getting to every senses of theirs. Asserting at any surprises ahead.
Little did they know, the shield is weakening. A Sorcerer is using his black magic to destroy the shield. Little by little it's hovering off. The sisters kept a watch on their distance. Prue's eyes were not stable on a particular place. She then sets her sight on the front door as if she saw a shadowy figure, in split seconds it's gone.
In an instant a demon shimmered behind Piper and Paige. Prue shouted "Piper" Piper had it explode right away. Soon another demon appeared followed by the next and the next at different places. Billie hurled the ones near to her, Phoebe kicking the just came one and fried its head. Prue threw a group at the wall. Cole dodging and exchanging blast in the kitchen while Henry on a cover has some vials in him and threw some at his distance and killed two. Piper kept on blowing approaching ones. Paige orbing from place to place avoiding blast, then she orbs some tools and impaling three. Prue using her psychic blade slashes the monsters that just arrive. Phoebe in the free dining space, delivering chops and kicks, levitating and defending herself, toasting head if she gets a shot. Billie assisting her using her TK to deflect fireballs and hurled it back to its owners. At the same time throwing vials to every demon she can get to. The clash never stops! Prue ran to the other and did a summersault combined with her TK, she saw a bunch of broken furniture and glasses and stab demons on their head. Paige orbs in some fireballs throwing it back, as she orbs out again for defense. Cole has already killed plenty using his blast, shimmering out then appearing, snapping some necks. Henry dodge after dodge, still using the vials Paige gave her. Billie with her little street fighting skills went to an arm to arm demon combat, kicks and punches plus potions blew another three. Piper, running to couches to duck then counterattacks bursting five. Fireballs caught her off guard, luckily she had the power of phasing and the fireballs just past as it suspended in the air behind her then swerve burning the warlocks. It was astral Prue who did that. As they both squatted against the fireball in mid air. Anguish and cries of combusting demons are reverberating the Manor's ground floor. The monsters are dropping from the air towards Prue, as she slices them with the psychic blade. Billie and Phoebe using the last batch of their remaining potions. It's just getting nastier! When Prue saw a site of remaining demons gathered in the middle.
Prue: Piper freeze them all !
The noise went down, the dark hordes froze, like ice, the other almost had Henry with it's claws. Lucky for him Piper was just in time. Before the freeze goes off. Piper exploded those within her sight and Paige throwing potions at the others. Phoebe and Billie as well as Henry did the same. Cole waved a fireball at the others and Prue sliced them even the monsters. Just as the freeze went off, the vile presence incinerated. Leaving a trace of ashes all over the manor. The place is in a hasty mess, as if a storm checked inn. There were holes, scratch and burns all over. Each of them walk through the hall way, went to see some serious injuries in their camp. Nothing serious but a bit of bruises and slits from Henry, Billie, Prue and Phoebe. Paige healed their minor aches.
Billie: (tired, gasping) No more!
Paige: better that all be, I'm running out of charge
Prue: expect the unexpected!
That said. Eames shimmered in the living room, by their side, holding a Darklighters' crossbow
Eames: nothings more fun, than killing a charmed ones! Ha,ha,ha,ha!
(shoots his weapon to Paige, Prue redirected it and hit the wall)
Piper, Cole and Billie waved their hand at Eames but he just deflected it all. He blink, all of them went close together moving their eyes all over waiting from where he would strike. From the wrecked dining room he appeared and threw a projectile. Billie quickly rid it off as Phoebe leap to give him a kick. Nothing happened to Eames what she hit was just a clone, and then it was gone. Prue and Cole watching their steps very slowly, their heads are turning, anticipating this Warlocks' next move. Least of their awareness, Eames blink near the front door hurling energy blast to every one in his range, Prue, Piper, Paige, Henry and Cole quickly dodge. Phoebe and Billie taking cover by the wayside. Prue was hit at her left arm. She blasts a psychic blade but got deflected.
Piper: Prue, your bleeding!
Prue: nothing deep, just take care of Eames (pressuring her wound)
(Paige came near and healing her)
Cole exchanging throws at Eames. Shimmering versus blinking, both sensing the others aura. Phoebe, Paige and Billlie taking care of Prue. Henry on alert. Cole appeared and blasts the air, a transparent Eames emerge and became visible, blasting Cole, quickly the former demon avoided the fireball. As Eames throwing at all of them, Paige protecting her wounded sister as Billie and Phoebe splitting to find a clear shot. Henry on cover. Piper blasting him but he just keeps on deflecting. He blink then appeared, but dodging this time, against Cole's energy ball. As Eames was about to counter attack, Phoebe saw her chance and quickly did a ground roundhouse kick. Eames was caught of balance, turning his focus on the coming blast from Cole, he failed to notice Piper freezing him before he hit the ground from the fall as well as Cole's energy ball suspended just inches range from him. Prue got up with Paige went to the others and move the frozen fireball to the demon as he starts combusting. Cole fired another one, this time full energy. As Eames unfreeze he screamed in the pain of being vanquished again!
Cole: pain is much, much hurting the second time around.
Billie; damn! This guy almost nailed us out
Phoebe: can we have a break!
Piper: another hell of mess!
Henry walks to Paige assuring she's all right. As well as her assuring his all fine. Billie sat on the floor.
Billie: totally drained, we need to fill-up (tired tone)
UNKNOWN FACTORY VICINITY (SAN FRANCISCO)
Keith and Amarth have been slashing and wrecking the place almost half an hour. After Keith teleported out of the manor, the aura his tracing brought him to this place. Getting rid off first, Amarth's pawns. Before both of them wield their blades. Steel against steel, speed versus speed, metal weapons clashing its teeth but not good enough to shred on some flesh yet. Daggers thrown, as well as energy stars, executing tremendous projectiles, each trying to harm their opponent, but not lucky to hit some skins. Amarth jumps in circus moves attacking Keith. The latter would strike back in a slashing move but only swords touch. Both shadow warriors are deadly trained, applying their learning. An abrasive martial arts duel, in which only the living would stand a winner, one to pursue the principles of his master, the other for the salvation of our world. The fight becomes more closer to the edge, closer to death. In a single flash, Keith was wounded below his right rib. Amarth received a long cut at his back, yet still breathing. Keith taking the final move to finish him off. Amarth blink to oblivion. Keith missed his chance to bust down this lunatic. Holding unto his wound. He teleported back to his new found friends.
MAGIC SCHOOL (main room)
Paige was there after the incident in the manor. She took time to see if everything there is fine. Residents, witches and whitelighters are all there. Working together, doing stuffs and preparation as defense and offense. Leo assisting them, Victor still with his grand sons, the least thing he can do. Leo talks to Paige
Leo: how's Piper?
Paige: doing just good for now, lot of demons attacked, hopefully
We drove them away.
Leo: and the others?
Paige: Prue was wounded, but I healed her she's fine now..
Leo: but they will keep on attacking, I'm afraid of what might happen!
Paige: we're gonna be just OK! The power of three is strengthen,
Now that Prue's here, it'll be a power of four.
Leo: Boros is a different evil, didn't you heard the story of Keith?
Paige: that's why we're doing every best we can. And to find this
Diamond he means
Leo: but how? You don't even know what it is or what it's like, even
Keith him self don't know it.
Paige: I've been thinking where the Elders, they should be…
Leo: I get what you mean Paige, but you saw how helpless they've
Become too. Even the Avatars…
Paige: Heavens help us!
Andy orbed in drained of his energy, along he brought two witches wounded from some warlocks.
Paige: Andy?
Andy: they called for my help, a group of demon hunters are preying
Them down. I don't have enough power to heal them. A
Darklighter almost got me over.
Paige: Kyle, Larry, Nica ( whitlighters)
The whitelighters she called went to the main room and atop their hand to wounds of the witches Andy brought.
Andy: how's Prue?
Paige: in good hands, You gotta take some rest, you'll almost faint
Evacuees of Magic School are at the conference room. Paige gave them a short briefing of what happened outside. She gave them additional instructions and details of what they got from Keith. Most of the crowd was so afraid knowing the threat this Boros have instill in the real world for so many millennium ago. Still Paige, tried to cheer their hopes up, and will surely pull this off.
Paige: I know it' s a long shot, but that's all it is, better do everything
in all our magic to protect this world of ours
ANOTHER PLANE
The elders Sandra and Odin met with the Avatars. No choice but to deal with them. Like it or not their allies now against a common foe.
Odin: what's the progress?
Avatar Gamma: we thought we should be the one asking
Odin: we've heard of the story, from a stranger who came to The Halliwells
Avatar Gamma: such is a mortal who knows more than you
Odin: are we here for business or insults?
Avatar Gamma: and how come you never knew of this,
thousands of years ago?
Sandra: and how come you don't?
Avatar Omega: there are higher powers beyond the likes of us
Avatar Gamma: and beings we never knew existed, but were always
There waiting for a time to strike its claws.
Avatar Omega: Boros is ultimately powerful, more than the source it self
Odin: he must be stopped at all cost
Avatar Omega: and we're still finding how!
Sandra: we the surviving elders have not enough power over this,
More over of thousand years that Boros lived in secrecy,
Time and history have forgotten him. Even both our kind
Avatar Gamma: its all means necessary, the future is shaping bleak
Odin: a group known as the light legions is preparing for war against Boros
Sandra: (sighing) and so are we..
After the meeting each went on their separate ways searching for answers. The elders went to some place, or protection and research. The Avatars have secretly gone somewhere, but a danger for them awaits.
THE MANOR (next day, early morning)
Keith returned wounded after his battle from Amarth, Paige came from Magic School to heal him. She told everyone where he'd been, another bunch of demon platoons will march to wreck havoc in the human sphere. The Halliwells and company did what they did before, a lot of potions and other vanquishing tools against those evil drones.
Keith: this war is getting worst, Boros is already merging his world with ours
Piper: how much time left to be exact?
Keith: I'm not sure, but worry not , my brothers are on their
Way, to join our struggle.
Piper: the Light legions,
Keith: yes,
Piper: we really need to move fast now, Paige, where's Prue?
Paige: Upstairs, still sleeping, she's been all night on
Phoebe: I'll see her up in minute (flipping the BOS)
Cole just woke up from the couch, headed to the kitchen.
Billie: do dead people eat?
Cole: I was dead, but not anymore, and I'm starving ok..
(Henry in the kitchen having a lemonade)
Piper: great!great! Its way to suffocating, our walls are
Tumbling down (looks around) literally!
Paige: (comforts her) we'll pull this out, and when we do, we'll have
A grand sisters party!
Piper: I always dreamed of that
Out of nowhere two figures in transparent appeared, as it became clear, it's Penny and Patty Halliwell,
Piper: (hugs them) Mom, grams, (a mixture of happiness and sadness
In her face)
Paige: I'm so glad seeing you again
Phoebe: (went to them) me too, grams, we're in a serious trouble
Grams: we know sweetie, that's why we're here
Patty: the news broke out and we also knew Prue came back.
Phoebe: I'll wake her up, to tell her you're here
Patty: Sandra sent us right after Cole, but we were just a bit late,
Some others needed our hand,
Grams: just like before, we'll be your guide
At Prue's room, deeply in sleep, as she was dreaming. Inside that dream, she found herself in a garden full of roses in bloom. Then a voice spoke to her. " Prudence, Prudence, you're still sleeping you need to wake up." Phoebe, went to her room, watching her in a sleeping beauty mode. Suddenly her sleeping state change, turning her heads side wards as if she was having a nightmare. Phoebe getting worried right now trying to wake her up. As she touched her, she gasped and got a premonition. But she too fell asleep. The premonition of hers is Prue's dream and drags her inside of it.
The dream, Prue still in the garden, hearing voices, all of a sudden Phoebe is with her.
Phoebe: Prue, where are we? How did I get here?
Prue: It's a dream, my dream, but it seems more than I think
must be my astral projection that took me here or you
Phoebe: I just touched you, then a premonition came, I don't have
An astral power like yours
Prue: but you have an astral self
Phoebe: are you saying your astral self drag mine here, when I touched you
Prue: that could explain it, (voices spoke to both of them)
"Prudence, Phoebe you must wake up, wake up, the diamond, the diamond, a great light" they were looking all over the garden but the voice seems to be just coming from no where.
Phoebe: who are you? How can we find the diamond? If you really
Wanna help us, please
Prue: we don't have time for riddles or cryptic lines
"the wind blows, the wind blows, you're still asleep all of you, you must wake up, it has to hurt, to wake you up"
Phoebe: please tell us where to find this diamond, to end this evil
"oneness in all, thy fate in front of your sight, Prudence, Phoebe, go! Wake up"
There bodies are resting calm, but their breathing is running faster. Piper and Paige, just went upstairs to see Prue, by the door she saw her two sisters both in sleep, suspicious of this, especially of Phoebe who went up just to wake Prue. Piper walked near them to before she could touch them, both Prue and Phoebe woke up suddenly as if someone just rose from drowning. They were tense and so is Piper and Paige.
Piper: what happened!
Phoebe; Prue astral projected into her dream or something else!
Piper: and you fell asleep too?
Phoebe: I was about to wake her up, but when I touched her, I thought I got a premonition, but instead I was drag by her astral self some……where…
Paige: you can now astral project?
Prue: no, she cant, maybe her skin contact in my sleeping body made
her go to where I am
Phoebe: a connection of some sort, and I think it's on purpose
Piper: I cant catch up..
Phoebe: Piper, me and Prue were in a rose garden, then someone spoke to us
Paige: and who could that might be?
Prue: must be Kori, she's telling us something
Phoebe: she's telling us about the diamond, the wind blows, confusing
Piper: she knew about the diamond our guest was talking about?
Did she tell you where we can find it?
Prue: she didn't she keep speaking in riddles, that we barely could figure
Phoebe: she said something about being one, wake up, I don't know
Paige: maybe they are clues leading us to what we've been looking
Piper: yeah, but where not some genius to figure that out
Within a limited time we have
Prue: this is really getting on my nerves
Piper: and it's totally pissing me off
Paige: Keith told us that in just a little time Boros will fully be
Marrying his world with ours
Prue: (hands in her head) damn it! Stuck in a sack we are!
Let's go, no time to waste,
Downstairs at the manor, Prue was surprise to the other visitors,
Prue: mom! Grams! (she hug both of them)
Patty: I'm so very happy you are here and with them again
Prue: I'm so glad to see you mom, grams
Grams: my eldest grand daughter Prudence
Prue: well I don't have to worry for all, since they're all married except Phoebe
Piper: Ok…. now… we got some solving to do
Paige: have you seen Henry?
Cole: his superior called, requesting him to report for duty, he left
Ten minutes ago, told me not to bother you, he'll just call
Phoebe: how about Billie?
Cole: Keith sensed another thing of his radar, and Billie went with him
Phoebe: what you let her go with him! Why did permit her, or at
Least told us …
Cole: hold right there, I came here not as a baby sitter, neither as a
Guard house checking who's logging in or logging out
Prue: Ok, let's get this over… with… I'll take my coffee for a while
, then Phoebe and I will go look for Billie. Piper..
Piper: you don't have to say it, Mom and Grams and I are gonna
Work the vanquishing stuffs and others in pronto!
Phoebe: I don't think we used some spells lately, or is it just becoz our
growing and new powers are enough to sweep these bastards!
Prue: well just keep 'em there, just in case we need it and Paige…
Paige: I have a husband to watch over,.. see you later (she orb out)
Prue: this is! while I was gone, ok….and I get it, Phoebe
Phoebe: hep..hep hep.. I'm not the youngest sister anymore Prue,
There's been a line up changes..(teasing)
Prue: I'm not gonna yell at you, ok, just gonna ask for sandwich
Phoebe: just reminding you (the two went to the kitchen)
Grams: they were like when it was twelve years ago.
Patty: (smiling) I'm just grateful all my daughters are together
Grams: and Prue never changes, enjoys being in charge…
Piper: that's why I miss her!
Patty: so! Ladies, we have some work to do
Piper: where's Cole?
Grams: he left
None of them notice Cole, while he went to the sun room and shimmered out. He has some league of his own
Somewhere in San Francisco, Keith and Billie are walking across town. Following something from Keith's sensing aura.
Billie: where are we really going? We've been sometime around, still nothing
Keith: I didn't invite you to go with me, you invited yourself
Billie: well, I want to help, and minimize our demon population
Keith: so am I, a little patience please, it's not that easy tracing these
Demonoids, they can hide their aura and will just caught you By surprise
Billie: I also have some surprises of my own!
An innocent was running right through them, screaming, crossing the other side of the street, as other people kept a watch but didn't act, coz they see nothing's chasing her. Keith and Billie locked eyes with the innocent and saw two warlocks running after her. They run after to save that girl before anything could happen. The girls is tugging someone from the crowd for help but people think she's crazy for they saw no one to harm her. She kept running, Keith drag Billie somewhere in a corner with no one noticing them.
Billie: we're supposed to save that girl, not hide..
Keith: who say we're hiding, I know a short cut.. (they teleport)
(following the visible aura of the two warlocks)
The aura led them backdoor of a closed fast food, nothings present except the girl trapped in wall and the doors are locked, two warlocks got her cornered. Both aiming to shoot their fireballs at her. In time the other warlock got a taste of an energy star from Keith. The other was thrust to the wall by Billie's TK. Before he could get up Keith already slashed him as he burst. Billie approaching the innocent girl.
Billie: you're safe now
Girl: thanks..thanks a lot,
Billie: let's go,we gotta get you out of here.
Paige went to the police station, to see Henry, at Henry's table
Paige: hey, you leave without even notifying me,
Henry: Didn't mean that, It's an emergency! I have a work to do..
Paige: yeah! But I was just worried, what if a warlock suddenly threw
A fireball at you while on your way to your job
Henry: we've pass way that, Ok,
Paige: but this one is different, for all we know lots of them have
Resurface attacking in random, you are now included on their
List, and they are High levels…at least for you……..
Henry: just calm yourself, all right? (a police superior walked in)
Police Superior: All of you! We got another situation two blocks near
From here.. a bunch of unruly crowd, wrecking a grocery
Store and the small stalls on the way side.! So let's move!
Henry: Paige, heard the man, I got a work to do (kiss her on the lips) love you!
Paige: love you too! Don't forget to call (smiling)
The police units went out, to handle the on going situation again. Paige suddenly was being called by someone needing Whitelighter assistance. She went some place hidden then orb out.
A hideout at an empty building, under construction, almost an hour ago, Cole shimmered in, following and looking for someone else. As he explore the place. He saw a tiny light coming from an unclosed door in a room not far. He carefully and silently walk to see what' inside. Peeping by the wayside, he saw a group of demons and Darklighters, as if their on a meeting. Listening to what they're talking about, a bald demon said "the witches have grown stronger than before". The other replied, "but we have lots of reinforcement now, they could get tired but we don't, if we keep on coming they'll surely crash". The bald one said "are you out of your small brain, that would be suicide". "yes it is some pawns are worth a sacrifice for the win". A Darklighter cut in "but first we must take care of their Whitelighters, so that there will be no healers to cure them. We just gotta set a bait". A demon in tuxedo started to talk "we can take care of that later, but first the witches, they cant be killed by magic, so we use the human way, besides they wont harm the innocents". The other one said "I'll get some hired skilled killers to do the job". The tuxedo demon quip "as for you darklighters, just do your usual job, hunt down whitelighters and some of my men will assist you". As Cole heard their plan he had no choice but to act, being a god guy now. He interrupted the meeting
Cole: pardon for the interruption, but I think your plan is just cancelled
(fired an energy blast, at two of them)
The remaining ones took cover, as Darklighters orb out to do their job. Cole wave another shot and killed one darklighter. The tuxedo demon Fired at him he dodge then fired back. Sooner, three more demons are showering him with fireballs, so he shimmered from place to place. Taking cover against metal drums, the others hiding at the pile of iron pipes.
Tuxedo demon: Belthazor, welcome! But I regret to say, I gotta send you a goodbye card! (he shoot rapid numbers of fireballs, making Cole off guard, the others followed)
Cole shimmered at the back of the other and stab him with his dagger, threw another at the one about to shoot. Quickly ducking at an approaching blast he fired at the thrower. As he got up, the tuxedo demon fired a strong projectile and got him on his stomach. He counters attack, but the enemy avoided it. As he was about to shoot the ex-demon, Cole kicked a hollow blocks thus making the three drums over it fall, the enemy was distracted as he shimmered from the side and in an instant stab him before he combust to ashes. Certainly a trick he learned from Phoebe, years before. The wounded Cole must return to the Manor to warn the Charmed Ones.
City Hotel on a 36th floor at a unit there, Paige and the boy he saved from demon hunters were being chased. She cant just orb, coz earlier when she did that, a warlock stopped her and she had no choice but to use her feet. Running at the hallways through the stairs, she can barely use magic to avoid being seen so are her perpetrators. Tugging the boy with her, at an emergency exit. A demon crush into the door running after them at the stair case. Paige called for "fire extinguisher" smashed it to the demons head. Asking the kid "sorry for the inconvenience, quickly we gotta hurry". Down way of them another demon appeared throwing fireballs, she dodge with the boy to elude it. Fortunately the demon behind them was killed by his fellow. As it blast another she used the same technique she always does, "fireball!" fired it back at the opponent. As they run and again another two shimmered in front of the stair blocking the exit door. Paige was stunned, taking the boy at her back to protect it.
Demon: no escape, witch!
Paige: that remains to be seen (the boy afraid, behind her)
The two demons about to shoot, Paige instinctively wave her right hand, expecting to do the way she always does. But something strange happen and instead a shower of orb lights came out of her open palm, showering both demons. Eventually clothing their darkness with a stinging blue and they just boom!(power called Light Rain) Stunned at what happened and at what she did. A grinning face was present.
Paige: I think I just got a new one of my own, I don't hate Prue, Piper
And Phoebe anymore! (held the boy then orb out)
On the road, pass noon, Prue and Phoebe at the car, Prue driving, Phoebe at her side. Looking for a sign of Billie across the streets, after tracking her using the pendant and the map. But what they encounter is another batch of rioting people.
Prue: what the hell is their problem!
Phoebe: can't blame them honey, it's a supernatural cause that's been
Creating this stuff
Driving slowly to evade people on the streets
Phoebe: we really have to find Billie and Keith
Prue: am not still convince of that slasher! Any sign of them?
Phoebe: negative (saw something strange as she squints), plus
Another negative is positive; I think we got a sign
Prue: OK let's go
What Phoebe saw are group of men walking right through an alley. Their looks are very suspicious. She thought she saw Billie
Prue: are sure you saw something?
Phoebe: this is the place! Billie! Billie!
Billie came out and gave Phoebe a harsh kick in the chest. Phoebe was thrown yards away. Prue sprinkle a finger of hers and send Billie flying to the wall
Prue: hey! nobody gave you a right to kick my sister.
Phoebe: (getting up) I think she's not Billie, a shape shifter.
Billie posing for a stance to attack. But Phoebe's quickness had her in an instant. Her combination of chops and kicks hit this Billie causing her to fall backwards in a garbage piles.
Phoebe: don't hide yourself psycho, stop using our friend, it wont work
Prue: that foot of yours has been so bad (wave a psychic blade cutting her foot)
A cry of pain let loose of her, as she morphs into her original form. The Billie face was replaced by a tan woman, in a Goth outfit.
Demon Girl: I may die, but you won't stop what lies ahead
The second youngest Halliwell went near her. She squatted while talking to her.
Phoebe: I know the feeling of someone getting burned, mind if you
Share us what you know
Demon Girl: go to hell bitch!
Phoebe: (angry eyes) you first (penance wave to death) I don't belong there
Prue: YOU are a one frying wicked witch
Phoebe: that's my talent (touching a wood near by, she gasp and got
A premonition)
Premonition; from behind of Prue comes a fireball so many as a warlock become visible, attacking her.
Phoebe: (turns to Prue) DUCK!
That said five energy balls racing in mid-air to Prue, she dodge but didn't notice an upcoming one below, hitting her left thigh. She pushed Phoebe opposite her at the other side, hidden behind a rusty drum. Prue on the open unable to stand up waves her hand for TK but nothing happened. The warlock aiming another shot at her, she astral Projected from behind of him and gave him a kick in the nape. The man thrust forward of the impact and bowed his head. Phoebe as fast as she can gave another kick on his chin. Then came to assist her sister. Astral Prue returned to her-self. Both of them moving away, the warlock recovering from the attack, saw her prey in distance not far from his sight, he blast another fireball. Right before it hit the sisters the fireball was redirected. Billie on the rescue, using her TK against him nothing happened.
Billie: my powers isn't working (tense)
The warlock smiling, knowing he can kill three witches right away, created another blast in his hand, this time a bigger one. Unfortunately he froze and saw a sword coming out of his chest from behind. It was Keith, impaling him from the back, he didn't even sense him. He cant' sense the speed of this shadow warrior. As the warlock fell to his knees and burned. Keith went to the three witches, Billie and Phoebe holding the bleeding Prue
Billie: Oh my god!
Phoebe: we gotta return to the manor, and heal Prue
Where were you two? We've been looking all over
Keith: we're at one of these apartments fighting demons and monsters
, saving a witch, but unfortunately we were unable to.
Billie: OK, we have to go!
Keith: I'll stay, meet you later, still have to finish something

All he have to do is to stay put. Earlier then, he already told Piper, Patty and Grams about what he found out. The three went up to the attic doing potions again. Half-an hour they went downstairs.

Out of the blue came a Nymph accompanied by a fairy. Both of them are bruised, slits in their dress, scratches and wounds on their skin.

Nymph: an army of demons,
Fairy: they killed almost every one of us

An instant (got down on her knees, crying)
