ACT 8 S.O.S.

Into the lower regions of the fortress leading directly to the underworld, at a conference room, high powered demonic warriors in the presence of The Ravenous subordinate warlord.

"As expected the witches have arrive, all of you underworld warriors who served the Source, The Triad, The Ravenous… it's time for retribution, for several years The Charmed Ones have cause our kinds lots and lots of damages and even vanquished the higher lords of the underworld, but this time would be different, that's why we are gathered to put an end to their era, before their Legacy even spreads out" addresses Kryox

His bodyguard spoke "I think they've already set foot within the fortress"

Kryox stretched his right arm "Go, and toy with them for a while, but leave the final blow to me"

"We may have so much fun that we might have killed all of them" a demonic warrior brags.

Kryox smiled calmly, the evil hordes shimmers and flamed out.

------

The Charmed Ones have passed the traps, they now stood in front of the shadow stretch.

"It's good we knew about those traps, even my freezing ability won't hold that long…. Multiply attacks all over… Oh god!!!" exclaimed Piper

"Paige, this is where your department comes in" Prue told her, all sisters held unto the half-witch

"Just what I've been waiting….." she replied.

They orb into the spot that clone Prue left. The four hooded sister walks into the gloomy depths.

"Piper, blast the air, … now!" command the eldest

The second witch waves her hand, even though she doesn't see a thing, the moment she started blasting, something exploded and again and again. She was surprise.

"Just keep it up" Prue told her

"Paige… ready…." The eldest said

"ARROWS!!!!" The first witch and the fourth witch both said, a group of arrows was shrouded with bluish lights and orbs away, Paige sighs "That's gr………eat"

"Hey forgetting your third sister… here… come on Prue" Phoebe snaps and tap Prue's left shoulder.

The first witch glance at her then looks straight ahead "All right let's move"

-------

Still moving forward, the place seems like an old abandon haunted empty church, whose ceilings are more than thirty five feet high, on both the opposite sides are niches supported by thick rounded pillars with torch lights about six meters in distance. The sisters already took out their hoods and revealed their dressed to kill looks, Prue sensed no sign of threats, but still keeping her guard up.

After which they first separated into two groups, Paige with Piper and Phoebe with Prue.

Piper and Paige orb out.

"Phoebes hold onto me" Prue said and the third witch clung to her. The two moves and vanish into a flash traversing the dark depths

-----

Somewhere in the nether place; A demon receive a kick right into his jaw and another one, the third witch runs faster to the other delivering rapid combos and ending him with her dagger. Phoebe paused for a stance, and leaps for consecutive spin kick mid-air hitting three demons in their faces she jumps from behind and stab one, threw a dagger on her left burning out her foe, after she pulled the dagger on the demon she impaled, she made a flip back wards four times dodging fireballs, Phoebe levitated and dives with a punch towards the thrower and she stab him by his neck. She stand ups, before the demon could hit her with his rod, she did a round house kick, pushing him away, she did another, kicking her foe into his chest, crash landing on the walls. Phoebe moves a little left to dodge a lighting blast, she runs for cover as she became a moving target, finding her chance, she rolled unto the ground the levitates and dives dodging a blast few inches away from her, she saw an opening and ducks, Phoebe did a fast sweep kick, the demon fell she fly a little passing him and stab his chest ending him to burst.

While the third witch is off on her own, The first witch have been dodging fireballs and other energy projectiles using her speed, she pass her foes back and forth with a slash, killing already eight of them. She jumps and back flips in the air landed to a wall, getting the force form her feet she vanish in a flash, and appeared behind two demons, crouching with her left knee on the ground, arms stretch with a kunai, the two demons behind her burst. Four demons fired at her, this time she uses her TK and sent the fireballs back at the owners. Prue walks a little forward and threw two shurikens, hitting two demons at their necks; the throwing stars pass through and impaled to the wall. Prue used her TK to get them and the two shurikens are circling around her. She waves her right hand, the ninja stars speeding at the barbarian who just flamed it, he was hit in between his eyes and he explodes.

Phoebe has already taken down six demons with her taijutsu and two daggers.

"Phoebe!!! In here now!!!" Prue said

The third witch runs and jumps beside her sister, about eleven demons shimmers and flamed in, ready to blast the two. Prue did a quick hand seals and taps her two hands on the ground; flames sprung out of it and consumed all their aggressors, leaving some traces of ashes.

"That was so COOL!!!!!! When are you gonna teach me that?" Phoebe amazed with Prue

"We have to vanquish Kryox first, then I'll think about it"

The third witch held her chest "That's a promised don't forget"

They went there way, and a figure from behind appeared, Prue sensed it and Phoebe, the third in her impulsive instinct gave a quick kick, but suddenly she was block, her right foot being hold by

------

At a certain chamber, Kryox holding his sword, behind him stood his elite Viking like fighters, and his reliable henchman.

"They'll be here anytime soon, it seems some of my warriors are not good enough to take on them" he smirks. Kryox stretch his right arm, on the middle appeared four warrior maidens.

"My men can't defeat four Charmed witches, so I presumed what's best after all than let them have a woman to woman fight, make their suffering enjoyable"

The four maidens shimmer out.

"(To his evil warriors) On your positions… (looks to his right) Archers… you know what to do" Kryox walks out his henchman followed.

Inside his chamber room, Kryox sits pretty at a throne like chair "This place will be their grave…. How pathetic, I've fooled them.. into chasing me, it's a no way out for them now"

"How about the child?" his henchman ask

"The sooner,… I just want to be sure these witches are buried into this hell, then we deal with that… tell the fighters outside to decimate five more prisoners"

His henchman walks out to do his bidding.

------

Along the pathway of glumness; After some moments, all four sisters reunited again

"This is so horrible" remarks Piper

Phoebe gazes around touching the stone walls, pulling a premonition, she's been trying as of late "Come on,… damn it,… (Concentrating while walking)"

"I can't get a premonition since earlier we step here" explains the third witch

Paige moves forward beside Prue "I think we just came into a dead end"

"Looks like it" Prue said

They all stop, checking the surroundings, it's clearly no exit ahead, a huge stone wall standing in front of them, not even an opening can be viewed at the top or both opposite sides, behind them was just the endless dim road where they came from.

The first witch steps forward, touching the stone walls trying to find some hidden lock or a doorway, she turns around "Piper do you remember the spell making doors on a wall?"

"(recurring some thoughts) Uhmmm… I hope these will do at least…"

"I have a bad feeling about this" Phoebe looking from the sidewalls to ceilings

"Claustrophobic… we're not in some elevator" said Paige

Phoebe snaps "Nice try…. You little witch!"

The second witch "Ah… here it goes…. When you find your path is block, all you have to do is knock" Piper steps forward and knocks at the wall, she knocks again.

A door became visible, "Whew!!! It still works" Piper was overwhelmed

"You're one great witch!!!" Prue taps on Piper's left shoulder and she pulled the door open, she looks at everybody behind and walks in along with Piper, Phoebe and Paige.

The place they entered resembles a huge circular arena just like where gladiators duel, some stones bulk through the walls which could be foot hold for climbing and in the far front of them is an arc shape tunnel. Fireballs hanging on different parts from the side shed some hellish atmosphere.

"What the hell is this place?" Paige wonders around

"Are they going to feed us to the lions?" jokes Paige

A roar was heard there after two lions phases out from the walls, then another one from the other side and another two came out of the tunnel hungry and furiously staring at them.

Piper really upset of the scene "Thanks for giving them suggestion you mouth!!!!..." she hits to Paige.

The half-witch shrugs "OK let me handle it… Lions!!!" all of the wild beast exited with an orb lights, Paige turns to Piper "See… no big deal…"

Out of nowhere four things dropped to the ground, a demon wearing a breast plate came out of the tunnel holding a body into her right hand, he raises it for the Halliwells to see, holding his victim fiercely tight by her nape.

The Charmed Ones, recognizes the four things as bodies, dead bodies of supposedly witches or innocent mortals, they lay lifeless and mutilated. Paige and Piper covered their mouths looking at the corpses, Piper turns her face side wards in disgust, Phoebe held unto Prue.

Prue looks at the demon straight eyes, then gazes at the murdered victims. They set their eyes on the demon holding another victim who seems to have a life merely clinging unto a breakable thread.

A flash back came into the eldest Halliwell's mind, one of the unforgettable experiences she had in Konoha and it's as if she was seeing corpses of her ninja teammates and slain villagers, one of them was a young boy with nine blades impaled on all his major organs and she was seeing the horror as if they're real.

"Prue!!... Prue!!!" Piper taps her, and she was back to reality.

The first witch, shaking a little, "(to the demon) Let her go!!!" she said with vigor

Before any of them could make a quick move, the demon pinned his hands into his poor victim and grinned sinisterly, the brutalized lady burned in flames.

The Halliwells, were enraged upon the inhuman act they just witness.

"Damn you…. You bastard…. !!!!!!" Prue sets out her anger

Piper waves her hands to burst him, but a blue shield deflected her attack, several demons flamed in. Phoebe and Paige looking at their foes carefully, Prue runs her eyes on all of their enemies.

The demons threw fireballs and blinks out, Piper burst it mid-air, Paige orbs other fireballs out. Prue let out a TK force hurling some of them violently bursting to the stone walls.

The half-witch runs to dodge, demons blink in, attacking her, she uses her dagger and instinctive combat skill ripping her attackers, she uses her TK orbing, throwing them to their own kind, Piper waves her hand and burst all she could, she freezes projectiles raging at her and burst them, she dodges and runs, but there's no place to hide at this exposed battle zone.

Phoebe using her martial arts and levitating ability, she kicks and chops doing combos pounding some demonic flesh and ending them with her two daggers.

On the other hand, Prue with the emotional rage she felt earlier, fights like a tiger, she moves lightning speed, in which her enemies can't catch up passing them by as they end up bursting before they knew what hit them, she jumps forward dodging fireballs and daggers, back flips and stunts to the ground then leaps and runs to the wall and went airborne she turns upside down and showered a shuriken hitting a dozen of her evil target in between their eyes. She landed on her feet and attacks the demon who killed their supposed to be innocent.

Piper rolls unto the ground, she got up in a crouching position, bursting quickly another demon who just flamed in. She ducks and counter attacks again. Piper rolls out against fireballs, she stands up, a demon blinks in front of her, she was surprised and kicked this creep instinctively and blew him up, she ducks as a blast pass 3 feet above her.

Paige used her TK orbing, the foe just deflected it, Piper freezing and bursting, Prue using her TK as well but all were deflected.

The armored soldier glares at them, he moves with strength, ramming and slicing all the witches, Paige orbs out along with Piper and Phoebe then orb in again. The hellish warrior, opted taking on Prue, he forwards and keep slashing his sword, the first witch just walks backwards avoiding the blade, she wasn't even making a counter hit, Prue watches the way her enemy attacks and studying him. The demon is getting a little pissed unable to hit his prey.

"Try harder you're not amusing me" mocks Prue

Evil armored warrior growls, and slashes his sword harder and faster, Prue moves a little fast avoiding the steel. She turns to left, then to right and back and forth circling his opponent while dodging, the cycle continues yet she doesn't make any offense.

"What the hell is she trying to do?" ask a confuse Paige

Another demon shimmers in, trying to interfere, probably to hit Prue from behind. Piper quickly burst it "You're not allowed to join….oh Prue whatever it is you're trying to pull off, better work it fast"

Prue sharpens her eyes, the demon slash his sword and got her by the chest, then wields again and sliced the first witch in half. Her sisters were shock and speechless of the horror. The armored demon laughs of what he did. Piper, Phoebe and Paige were terrified and started to tear out.

All of a sudden, his being overwhelmed caught him off guard, the evil warrior can't move, both his legs we're suddenly grab from the ground and in an instant he was pulled down, burying his entire body except his head which is only visible. Prue drops appearing like a wind, two meters in front of him.

Her sisters were surprise, and when they turn to her supposed to be corpse it was just a scattered pieces of rocks.

"You've been spinning all over and not once you did a hit, now I think you cannot deflect, you're tied up with wires underneath it would be no use for you to move"

Prue gestures for a keep quiet sign, she did a single hand seal on her right hand activating the explosive note attached at fighters' body, the armored demon burst.

Piper walks near to her and pinch her arm.

"Ouch!!!!" Prue scratching her arm "Why do that for?"

"You make me nervous again… you.." Piper can't finish her sentence and just smiled

"I knew you have something on your sleeves" said Paige

"I don't think our innocents have enough time left…" Phoebe reminded them.

"Oh,.. right, we need to split into two groups, one who's on the rescue and the other on an ambush.." Prue suggested

Piper squints in wonder "Excuse me…. Just what are you saying?"

The eldest witch replied "We've been battling Kryox men, for hours now, as far as I could think, they have been delaying and slowing us down…. Matter of fact draining our strength and resources, we can't do that continuously, our primary goal by now is to save the hostages and give Kryox a free ticket to the wasteland"

"So how do we put this out?" Phoebe ask

"Piper, Phoebe, Paige you embark on the rescue and orb them out here" Prue declared

"And you?" Paige waiting for her big sisters' answer

"I'll deal with these bozos, buy sometime to prevent them from distracting you"

"That's too dangerous going by yourself…. Even if you do, Kryox could have been waiting for us and we need you as an additional power" said Piper

"(Chuckles) don't worry, I believe and I trust all of you" Prue cheering her sisters

"You really sure about this huh,.." remarks Paige "Take care sis"

"OK,.. Paige orb them now…. Go" the leader witch told

Paige and the rest orbs out.

-----

While her sister are on their own to rescue the hostages, Prue looks around sensing if there are other demonic presence, when all is clear she walks her way out, holding a kunai on both hands, and she just move and vanished (Body flicker technique).

----

"You ugly relentless scum's!!!" Piper said out loud as she keep blowing up demon soldiers, she just froze a fireball raging towards her, and had Paige orb it out.

Phoebe delivers a super left kick and another one, finishing her opponent with an aerial spin kick then threw her dagger killing the culprit. She quickly ducks, a dashing sword slice is coming from behind, she quickly got hold of the demon and punches it's chest so hard then twisted it's neck.

Piper joined the third witch and followed Paige, who already found their hostages trap in a sealed wooden prison surrounded by dark yellowish aura. A total of seventeen wiccan practitioners and innocents are there. The hostages were so please and an ounce of hope outlined their faces. Most of them are weakling, severely wounded.. only expecting a miracle. Thank goodness the Charmed Ones arrived just in time.

Piper hasting Phoebe "Quick…Phoebes.. hurry up"

"Ok..ok.. it's not like I could just pop up some words and rhymes that fast" answers the third witch figuring out a power of three spell.

Paige has been trying to unseal the prison with all her potentials, and it's not working.

Then the last three Halliwells all joined together and chanted along with Phoebe.

"Here it goes…." Said the empath

"Prison doors unlock, break the seal, The three powers heed our will"

"It didn't work… it's not enough.." Piper in doubt

Then all of a sudden the sinister aura surrounding the prison subsides.

Phoebe looks at Piper and winks "See good thing comes to those who wait"

Paige kicks out the prison door and held all the innocents she could, Piper and Phoebe gave their hands and pulled the hostages out. At last they were free.

A cheer and mixed emotions became present from the darkness slowly killing them, the victims of Kryox brutality were save. All of them felt relieve, Piper is just so simply happy that they once again save a couple of lives.

Phoebe interrupted the short celebration " Forget the little reunion awhile, we have to get you out of here before unwelcome freaks gatecrashes again"

"Paige orb the others out, if you can have them all… the better.. I have to go back Prue up.." Piper ordered

Phoebe and Paige ushered the hostages out of the underworld.

On a secluded upper land, Paige called forth her Whitelighter colleagues, to cater their respective charges. Kyle is one of those who came by.

"Nice work.." remarks the former detective.

"Be sure to bring them home safe" replied Paige. The former lovers gave each other a warm smile.

"Phoebe and I have to go back, Prue and Piper still needs us" with that said the third and the fourth witch orb back to the underworld.

-----

The shinobi witch keeps treading her path, leaving behind ashes of fallen predators and wild hellish beast. She feels a little tired, but she knew she has to keep her stamina up, mostly using taijutsu, reserving her chakra for a special Ninjustu which she once used back in Konoha.

She thought to herself "I wish me and my sisters are enough to defeat him, but if not, then this would be the second time for me to use that jutsu"

She then runs forward, blocking her path are awaiting hungry warlocks, blasting her with flames and fireballs, Prue dodge after dodge, avoiding the attacks on her and she wields her kunai slicing those who come across her, she stunts and back flips throwing shurikens killing four opponents.

Seconds later, Piper arrived "Glad to see you're still doing good"

"Thanks" Prue answered

Followed by an orb who resembles to Phoebe and Paige. Then all four walks together again, hopefully and doing all that they could to put Kryox to an end.

SAN FRANCISCO (Victor s' Place)

Both the grandpa and his three grandchildren (Ciel, Wyatt and Chris) spending sometime at the living room, they just finish dinner. Ciel is with Wyatt and Victor is carrying little Chris.

Leo came out from the kitchen "Just cleaned up… I'm so worried" he said to Victor

"Much as I,.. It's like when will all this be mark period? I don't want my grandchildren have the risk like their grandma had, even Prue or Piper for that matter" The Halliwell's dad told him

Leo stared at his shoes then looks back to his father-in-law "I don't know either… and it's already beyond..ou…r"

Victor interrupted "Beyond us!!!!! Especially me and that's what drove me away from them.. all I wanted is to have family and be with my daughters and spend some to my granddaughter and grandson as well… was that too much? I've seen all of my girls to hell and back and then again the cycle repeats… It's very tiring"

Ciel glances a smile to her grandpa along with Wyatt. Victor smiled back, he cuddled little Chris cheerfully.

"But then.. there are things right in front of our reach…" Leo gave a little smile as he watch Victor and the kids in a happy family mood. He also feels the same way.

AT THE MANOR (Late Night)

Cole pacing at the attic, keeping a guard, watching the BOS, the very book that almost cost his existence; he has a haunch that something big is coming at the place he's currently into. He walks back and forth while glancing at the BOS podium once in awhile. He got some info about underworld minions eying for the BOS.

Suddenly he felt an aura familiar to him back in his days as The Source's servant.

"Just as I was thinking" he told himself

From nowhere outcome a blue energy ball he quickly ducks and dives, taking cover behind the wooden couch. He looks all over scanning the perimeter but saw no one. With no hesitation he blasted the air few meters away from the walls and fortunately he hit something. A guy in black corporate suit flamed in, wounded. Cole stood up and revealed himself approaching the demon.

Just a few steps, someone so fast dives at him, knocking the DA to the floor, another demon straddled him, pushing a knife right through his neck, Cole struggles and with all his strength. He leaps his knee hitting his foe's abdomen and pushed him away with a kick. As Phoebe's husband tries to get up, he got a surprise strike from the back by a muscled demon and quickly hurled him away; Cole made a bad landing straight to the stock boxes and furniture. He made two consecutive blast against the intruders, but they quickly avoided it. He shimmers out, and shimmers in. In his surprise several demons are now present surrounding the BOS.

"Don't even bet you could lay a strand of hair on that book!!!" he screamed, and threw another energy ball.

But it was deflected. A demon walks out and confronted him. Cole stared in awe and wonder. Because the enemy staring at him looks like him, it's as if he had a twin.

"We know you hate demons Belthazor… so we did you a big favor" said the other from the group

The clone Cole broke his silence "I guessed we're a little odd around here, let's settle elsewhere in private"

"(smiles in disbelief) You'll settle your sorry face around here and the rest as well" The real Cole fired and the clone counters. Whatever the true one does, the clone also do. Both engage in a man to man fist fight until they crash out the door and fell to the stairs.

"That'll keep the traitor busy for a while" remarks a leader demon in the group and addresses his men "Proceed, we may not get another chance"

Six more intruders made use of their magic and did a ritual.. trying on the Book of Shadows.

As their ritual begins.. Billie just spawned out and started cleaning the podium surroundings, she hurled most of the demons and stopped the ongoing ritual.

"You don't have a place here" she TK the leader… but her attack was of no use. She looks left and right, the demons she threw earlier are recovering and aiming for her. Billie moved quickly and rolled unto the floor and threw potion vials, vanquishing at least three opponents. A little later two of those underworld minions attack her with battle axes. The blonde witch moves away dodging the deadly swing from the demons, she ducks and she kicks, then TK her foes sending them off balance again.

------

Downstairs at the living room, chaos has decorated the place, tables and furniture were broken, Cole kept on pounding his evil self, but he gets treated the same. They wrestle and threw each other off, a few meters of distance, the clone hid behind the wall and the real Cole at the sofa turned upside down. They exchange energy balls, shimmer after shimmer and when they come face to face they beat the other like hell!!!!

-------

"Ahhhh!!" Billie shouted!! A loud kaboom hit the attic wall, Billie was hurled by one of her enemies. Trying all she could but, she's still nowhere near the circle of high powered demons in ritual against the BOS. The warrior she's been battling had kept her real busy, and it's a pretty good tactic from Kryox.

While the dark hordes are waving their Black magic at the BOS, the book itself glows and the symbol in the middle. It's fighting back against its enemies. Suddenly one of the evil henchmen was distracted.

The leader turned to him "Keep going… you idiot!!! It's nothing but natural"

His henchman looks at him again, this time with uncertainty.

The ritual continued as the BOS keeps on resisting, a power so strong and almost consuming it, unlike the previous ones that dared to take it.

The Book of Shadows versus a group of warlocks, Billie against a barbaric warrior and downstairs Cole one on one with his clone. A very nasty battle concealed within the manor, a fight for their duty, for their love ones and for the innocents along the way.

SAN FRANCISCO

Leo and Victor stared in shock, watching Ciel. Prue s' daughter is being surrounded by a swirl of lights, followed by Wyatt.

Victor held both the kids "What's going on Ciel?!! And Wyatt?!!!" he turns to Leo

The former whitelighter was shock clueless but in a few seconds "It's some sort of magical connection, a summon or a call…"

"What do you mean?" Asked an impatient Victor

"I have no particular idea"

"Is this good or not…? and it seems to me it's not"

The two kids wondering and it's like their enjoying the swirling golden lights around them. Wyatt held unto Ciel and they smiled at each other.

Leo said "I think their fine"

"You think, but you're not that sure" Victor with a doubt

-----

Concentrating to break the ties and connectivity of the Book of Shadows, the ritual performers is preventing that connection, thinking of destroying that link to the Charmed Ones.

-----

Victor and Leo carefully watching the cousins, their suspicion was turned to a warm relief. Victor is partly convinced.

Leo keenly observing "They must be channeling their powers somewhere else or to someone else"

Victor looks at Leo then to Chris by the playpen who was now being surrounded by the swirling lights. "Even Chris too"

Leo saw his youngest enjoying the hovering lights

"I hope you're all fine Piper" he told his self.

------

Billie is almost fallen, she's on her knees, gasping, she did everything in her power to stop the group of demons and yet she still failed, and she wasn't even able to vanquish her foe.

The proud evil warrior stands tall just a few meters away from her, ready ho swing his huge axe. Billie TK the demon but it's no use, her decreasing energy is weakening her power.

"I can't just die like this…" she whispered to her self

Just as the ax swings that will slice her life away, the blonde witch was covered with bluish lights and orbs out.

The evil ax slinger is wondering and looks around for any sign of Billie, he never bothered to go down stairs, but stand as a lookout on his ritual mates.

------

At the manor kitchen Billie orb in and lay by her right side on the floor. It was whitelighter Kyle that saved her in time. He quickly healed Billie s' injury.

"(Gasping) Thanks!!! I thought I almost…. (hurting in pain)

"It's all right now,… just relax and don't' force your self yet" Kyle ordered her.

"A group of Warlocks is trying to take the Book, they must be stop" she's panting

"Yeah… I know, but we can't go up against them in this situation"

They heard a cracking noise coming from the living room or so.

Kyle and Billie crossed eyes, curious to find about that noise and they do know a fight is taking place.

-----

Cole with a dashing punch delivered to his clone, followed by another, and the last was an energy ball he concentrated too much and press it right into the clones' chest, he was thrown out by the sun room and vanquish to dust. Cole feeling the tiredness kneeled down for a moment. Kyle and the just recovered Billie went in to help the D.A. As usual Kyle did his part again as a healer.

Cole on Kyle "The sisters their in great danger"

"They're still doing fine and had save the hostages from Kryox" answers the former detective

"What I mean is the Book of Shadows they must breaking the ties between it and the Halliwell s', if that materializes they'd be too vulnerable" Cole tight hold on Kyle

"We really need to work this out! Before any unwanted results" said Billie

SOMEWHERE IN SAN FRANCISCO

Henry got a call from an informer and he was told of a robbery in a certain bank, but what happen was a clear set up and ambush. He chase the robber to the park and instead of expecting bullets and knives to spray him it was fire balls, he quickly hid behind a bench park then to a tree. He tried to call for his wife, but several seconds pass and no one appeared to rescue him.

He chose to use his gun, though it can't kill this type of beings, it's an enough distraction for him to move away. Henry carefully walks out. Before he could reach the nearest cover, a fireball dashes towards him, immediately he dodges it in time, then jumps and dives. He saw a rock and threw it with might hitting the dark being head, the demon felt that pain. Paige s' husband stirred a little laugh.

As he turn behind, a beast looking creature clawed him and hurled Henry unto the ground, he got up a little, slightly crawling on his back. The demon he hit before joined his partner, aiming to kill Henry. The detective is now cornered searching for his jacket pocket.

"Your corpse will be a pretty present for your bitchy witch"

A boiled up anger arose from Henry at what the demon said, until he found something in his pocket.

A blast out of nowhere, hit the beastly creature the talking demon got out of focus and Henry quickly threw the potion vial that Paige gave him before she left.

Another shot followed thus slaying the beast, while the demon is slowly melting; Henry stood up and kicks him out before he was eaten by flames.

"Just in time for me… I owe you" Henry turns to his left

"Anytime bro…" Andy replied

SAN FRANCISCO (Victors Place)

Still observing Ciel and Wyatt, Victor can't help but worry and wonder. The two kids are pretty serious now, Leo slowly suspecting what's taking place in front of them.

"It's like their channeling their powers in to something"

Victor still clueless at what he heard

"Wyatt… Ciel …. What's going on? Tell me, what is it that you feel?" ask Leo

"Uncle Leo, it's calling us for help" Ciel said innocently

Wyatt sitting pretty silent "Save from bad guys" he murmurs

"Who needs help son? Is it mommy, Aunt Prue, or Aunt Phoebe and Aunt Paige?

"No, we don't know… Uncle Leo"

THE MANOR

At the attic, moments have past, the ritual goes on and a battle of dark and gold magical orbs is present mid air. Warlocks giving all that they could in order to breach the BOS magical defenses.

Downstairs, Cole and Kyle were thrown back to the floor, the latter thinking of orbing back to the attic and Cole can't also shimmer in it.

While Billie, standing outside to attic door, breaking it with her TK, but it's just not working, some sort of barrier was place to prevent intruders. She went down to meet the rest.

"Damn it!!!!" let out an angry Cole

"They have put a n energy barrier to stop us from getting in" Kyle said "Any ideas?"

"I think I'm running out of it" as Billie layed her back to the wall.

Cole glance at each of them "Whatever happens, we must nail those freaks out or my wife is in real bad, bad shape"

THE CHARMED ONES

Still in the underworld, the four sisters have vanquish majority of warlocks and demons.

"This is getting a little boring and draining" Piper complained

"Kryox must be keeping us dancing with his men in order to tire us then that's when he strikes" the third witch told

Prue replied "Well, it's pretty obvious don't you think?, Phoebe any premonitions lately?"

"Nope"

"How about you Paige? Something your whitelighter half could sense?" ask Prue

"Zero, can't reach that far, we must have been so deep now"

A worried Piper "I hope their sitting pretty good up there"

The first witch sensed something all of a sudden "Hey get over here quick!!"

Her three little sisters went to her, and she grab them by their shirts then vanished in a blurring flash. Right after they left a big wave of water comes crashing along their path and it occupied unto the upper perimeter, had not they departed it will drown them to death.

They reappeared at the upper ground now, but the surrounding is still gloomy. No sign of mortals, but trees, broken walls from a devastated infrastructure of some sort, not far is a stone wall and a small mountainous portion, seems like they're at the gothic version of an old west ghost town.

"Where the hell are we?" Paige so curious

"What kind of place you transport us Prue?" Piper ask

Prue answered "Have no idea either, just followed a trace"

"Looks to me the place for a final showdown" quips Phoebe

Piper said "Yup and that means the old big vanquish scenario"

All four of them gazing around, Phoebe saw a fast moving figure, then Paige.

"Let's be prepared…" the eldest said "Still got enough potions and stuffs?"

Piper checks her pockets "Five more to go"

"I'm still up for that" Phoebe affirmed

"Same here" added Paige

Prue just nodded

Figures hiding in the dark keeps moving, as some started to materialize. The Charmed Ones gazing at their every surroundings, preparing their selves for an approaching assault. A few moments passed a handful of underworld beings flamed and blurred in, dashing forward and threw energy projectiles against the four sisters. Prue, Piper, Phoebe and Paige dodge separately.

"ROCK" Paige called for the object and pound two opponents right into their heads. She rolled out taking cover at a huge stone and orbs another rock killing her next attacker.

The second witch sprinkles her hand as several enemies keep exploding she freezes fireballs raging at her and burst the others. As Phoebe on her own went to a physical combat with her knuckle gloves and atheme, she ducks, then back flips and levitates, delivering kicks and punches.

Prue have opted to use her witch powers in the mean time, reserving some chakra for her shinobi abilities. She waves a single hand releasing a strong telekinetic force, doing a lot of casualties among their predators. She jumps and leaps avoiding attacks, then uses her TK again.

Unknown to them, someone is watching from the shadows, carefully observing the Charmed witches.

THE MANOR (attic)

It's still taking time the Book of Shadows resisting the ritual of these warlock priest. The six evil minions circling around it continues to chant and spread their magic in order to take over the BOS.

-----

Outside the attic door Cole ceaselessly blasting energy balls, yet doing him no good. Just he's about to shoot another, Kyle grabbed his hand

"Stop wasting your time, save it for later"

"Later….huh?!! There will be no later, if we can't break this god damn door!!!"

"That's why we're thinking any other options"

"Well, better think fast!!!" snarls a pissed off Cole

Kyle looks at Billie "Any spells or incantations you can use?"

"I did try some, but I'm not enough, even my projection powers were being blocked, their too hard to handle" she replied

All three of them went into some desperate actions of getting into the attic. Until Billie got an idea

"Guys, just stay put, I think I could get some resources"

Cole and Kyle stared at each other then to Billie.

UNKNOWN VICINITY

"It's getting real tough now…" Phoebe said standing back to back with Piper

She sprinkles her two hands three, four, five, six, evil soldiers disintegrated "As long as they die this way, I'll be OK"

Paige had orb a pile of rocks and broken branches, exterminating plenty of her adversaries. Prue ducks and runs as she kept hurling and throwing demons, she deflected flames and burned some evil interlopers.

The second and the third witch kept doing their job so is the half-witch. On the other hand Prue have already anticipated what Kryox might be planning, he's making them fight and fight until they become restless then vicious dark soldier would caught them off guard , or could it be that he is just watching how they fight, studying their move. She knows this warlord is a great strategist when it comes to dirty situations like this, but fortunately for her, she could apply those Ninja missions she had gone through back in Konoha.

The eldest Halliwell gazes around her place then to her young siblings, she release another Telekinetic wave decimating a vast number of demons, it's like they're grinded by a strong wave of wind.

Behind the stone wall, Piper took cover then Prue, followed by Phoebe and Paige, all of them standing next to each other. Peeping out at their foes, who seems to be increasing in numbers though they knew they already vanquished a lot.

"Why do I get this feeling that they keep rise in numbers?" Paige a little worried

"No, it's not a feeling, they really are…" Piper blew two more demons "and they keep coming……… for us!!"

"This is starting to bore me, the cycle just repeats and I don't like it" remarks Phoebe

The first witch walks out of cover stretches her arms sideways hurling more than half a dozen underworld warriors. She went back to her sisters "He planed to lure us on this, Kryox really left a trace for me to follow, he anticipated all four of us in a place exactly where he wanted, exhausting us with vast quantity of his demonic fighters."

"At least we've already freed the hostages, so…" Piper can't finish her sentence when Prue turns eyes on her. The eldest instinctively know what she meant

Phoebe cuts in "…I know what you're pointing out Piper, but might not get another chance if we don't finish Kryox now, he might take many more lives"

"I agree with her" Paige in support to Phoebe

Piper looks out then blasted another batch of demons again. Prue followed with a TK attack.

A group of these black suited freaks assembled on different angles, aiming to corner the Charmed Ones, one of them made eye contact on the group at the opposite side, others flamed out. Some of them move in a sneaking way.

"Yeah.. I know.. our duty on the innocents is done, but not on Kryox, as much as I want, I don't want to risk you" the eldest caring so much for them

"Stop talking like that Prue" a serious Phoebe "As far as I know we're sisters and other than that we're a team, you told me that right?"

The evil legions carefully moving to execute their plot in cornering the witches then strike for a kill.

Passed some few moments, Prue whispered to them "At the my count Ok."

Kryox s' men appeared and made their act, they got the sisters in a no escape zone, each with fireballs in their hands while the others holding their bladed weapons. All of them at the same time aimed from where the Halliwells took cover. These dark legions made their assault and something occurred.

SAN FRANCISCO (Victor s' Place)

Leo still observing his kids and niece, Victor restless of what might go wrong to his grandchildren, when all of a sudden the swirling lights around Ciel and Wyatt started to change, it's range is slowly spreading consuming the kids entirely. Ciel reaches out her hands. Wyatt raises his. This started to alarm Leo. The kids are staring out in space. While little Chris is also giving out his little light orbs towards the cousins who seems to be channeling it somewhere else.

"We're here for you" Ciel s' voice in an innocent tone

"Wait.. Ciel you tell grandpa what's going on now.. huh?" Victor demands

The golden lights started to shine brighter and blinding. Leo raises his hands for cover as he took a hold Chris left hand. Victor did the same but reaching for the two kids. The force started to rise the windy presence can be felt all around. Victor to a hold of both Ciel and Wyatt, he embraced them, while Leo held Chris tight.

Out of nowhere the swirl of golden lights spiraled around Prue s' daughter and Piper s' son along with Victor and they teleported out, right before Leo could take a hold at any of them.

THE MANOR

At the messy living room, a panting Kyle and Cole, won't give up breaking into the attic, be it through shimmering, orbing and even blasting the entrance, yet it does them no good at all. The barrier these warlocks have is too powerful.

"Only the Charmed Ones could break those magical gates, it's beyond our capabilities, even you as well" Kyle in a exasperated voice

"Just our luck they're not here…. So now…. What?" answers Cole

In a puff of smoke Billie appeared "Good to see you're still lively enough"

"What do you expect?" Cole replied

The former detective looks at Billie "Figured something out now?"

The blonde answers "I dropped by at magic school for some research and solutions to our problems, I think I found some stuffs and spells that'll destroy whatever it is they have up there"

"Oh.. great.. no time to lose" Kyle added

A sight of relief went to Cole "Let's get this thing of yours rolling"
