"It shall be done," said the Source. Thunder echoed through the Underworld.

Prue walked through the hospital room where her dead sister lay. Outside, a SWAT member fired his gun. The bullet went straight through the wall, heading for Prue. It stopped mid-air and reversed as the whole day reset. Prue and Piper stood in the manor, looking at Dr. Griffiths.

"Look," said Prue, "I know this all sounds incredible, but it doesn't make it any less true. Alright, you're a healer, you do good, now either you have saved too many lives or you're about to save a life that they don't want you to save.

"They?"

"Yeah, demons. Uh...more specifically, Shax. He was The Source's assassin.

"Hold it," said Dr. Griffiths, "I get it. This is a practical joke, right? Do you have a hidden camera here? My second wife put you up to this? Ah, it's just like her," he laughed.

"O-o-okay, Dr. Griffiths, listen to me, this is anything but..."

"What?" Asked Piper.

"I don't know. I just felt a chill," Prue replied, "Phoebe? Phoebe are you there?" A tornado burst through the front door, knocking down Prue and Piper. "Phoebe, where are you?" Dr. Griffiths stumbled back as Shax faced him."

"Dear God." Dr. Griffiths said as he stood in front of a wall, Shax facing him. Prue flipped her hair out of the way.

"No!" She cried, jumping up. She ran to Dr. Griffiths and pushed him away as Shax shot an energy ball at Prue. The energy ball reflected back and hit Shax. Piper stood up and out stretched her arms. Shax blew up.

"Prue are you okay," asked Piper, "Good thing you deflected that."

"Piper."

"And at least my new power, fourth demon I vanquished by the way,"

"Piper."

"Prue, it's —,"

"PIPER! I didn't deflect that. I never used my power."

"Then how —,"

"I'm not sure."

"I did it. Don't worry Prue," said a man as he blinked in, "Don't worry Prue, it's just me. Kevin. From the future, remember? Pratt said he was a witch but he lied and he killed you and the Angel of Destiny brought you here." Prue waved her hand and Kevin was thrown back, onto the table, he rolled off it and held it open palm up and them. Four streams of golden light emanated from his hand. Two of which sunk into Prue and Piper's heads.

"Whoa. Head rush."

"Sorry. Just breathe. You'll be fine. Lemme guess, this is about the same time that Phoebe tries to save Cole? And...Leo and Piper just got married?"

"Yes — How did you —,"

"Know that? It's all in the history books. Thousands of them. And, if I remember correctly, and I know I do, that means that today, Prue, you were supposed to die. Shax was supposed to kill you. And because of that, I can't remember what happened to the Power of Three...."

"Something happened to the Power of Three," Prue asked.

"Yeah," Kevin said, "Something pointless and stupid, if I remember correctly. Oh. And, you didn't really kill Shax. Just sorta — moved him. When you blew him up, and don't worry, you'll get a hang on your new power, you just made him turn into the wind. And, Phoebe went down to the Underworld to save Cole and you guys came to vanquish Shax, got exposed, Piper died, time rewound, Prue was killed and it's all just....gone...after that...Because I saved Prue with my powers."

"Okay," Prue said, "So, let's go get Sha —,"

"No," said Piper, "A warlock is in our house."

"He's my boyfriend. Don't you remember what happened when we went to the future?"

"Yeah. But Prue, how do we know he didn't make us think that happened?"

"Because I trust him. But right now, we need to go find Shax."

"No," Kevin said, "You can't go after Shax. If you do, you'll be exposed. Then, a witch practitioner will kill Piper, you will take her to the hospital and SWAT members will kill you and this time, Tempus won't be able to reset time."

"Tempus," asked Piper, "We already vanquished him."

"No. You defeated him, you didn't vanquish him..."

"We would never work with him. It's his fault Andy died."

"Would you work with him if Piper was killed?"

"Will Shax kill any innocents until we vanquish him," asked Piper.

"Well," Kevin said, "I don't think so. But, there should be a way to rewrite the Balthazar summoning spell. Just substitute the word 'Shax' with 'Balthazar'. And in the books, all it took to really vanquish him was you and Piper. Before time reset."

"You're a warlock."

"So?" He blinked away. "Get up here," he called. Piper and Prue ran up into the attic.

"Time has been reset. Shax attacked your house," Cole said.

"Are they —," Phoebe began to say.

"No. Kevin saved them. Came from the future and used the magic of the Angel of Destiny to make you remember it."

"Kevin? Prue's warlock boyfriend? It doesn't matter. Cole, shimmer me home. Now, please."

"Okay."

"Magic forces, black and white,

Reaching out through space and light,

Be he far, or be he near,

Bring us the demon Shax here."

A tornado of wind began to spin in the attic, and when it subsided, Shax stood staring at the sisters.

Cole and Phoebe shimmered in. Cole shot an energy ball at Shax, who didn't react. Prue waved her hand and Cole was thrown through the air.

"Prue!" Phoebe yelled, pulling out a piece of paper, "He's good now! The potion worked!"

"What's that?"

"This," Phoebe asked, holding up the paper, "It's the vanquishing spell for Shax that I used before time reset." Shax shot an energy ball at the sisters, and Prue deflected it. "Come one. Let's just vanquish him." In unison, the sister's read aloud:

"Evil wind that blows,

That which forms below,

No Longer will you dwell,

Death takes you with this spell."

Shax began to glow and spin and sped up, 'till he became a blur and exploded.
