MELINDA'S AND FELICIA'S NEW HOUSE. THE BACKYARD. NIGHT
[PJ is outside with Dane.]
PJ: The party was popping. Dane. So why bring me out to the back, privately.
Dane: I have something to reveal. PJ.
PJ: Is it another one of your past after you again?
Dane: No. It's not that. I think we have a chance at royalty again.
PJ: No. The only way. It's back. Right? From what I learned, the essence always finds someone.
Dane: No. It's not that drastic. We don't have to give in to our darkness this time. But your guess about something in my past is right? But nothing with vengeance.
PJ: Then what is it?
Dane: It turns out my mortal mother comes from royalty. From some country known as Eclary. It's like a small little province in Europe somewhere.
PJ: And you're next in line. Something like that?
Dane: Yes. It seems whoever keeps taking over is not doing right to the country, according my Great Aunt.
PJ: Now you have a Great Aunt? My goodness. And wow.
Dane: My Great Aunt is asking me to leave soon to get settled. But I can't leave you. You know. By yourself. With your condition. And it is not wise to travel at this stage of pregnancy.
PJ: I don't care. Coming with you. There's another option. We can beam.
Dane: Look. I don't know if that side knows about the magical world. And if you beam, it's going to be hard explaining why a woman in your condition is traveling through plane.
PJ: I understand. But don't worry about me. I'll be alright. You do what you need to do. After all, this is fate. We're meant for royalty.
Dane: That's what I thought.
PJ: So. Let's head back then. I want to dance some more. And the baby likes some movement.
Dane: Does he or she really like some movement?
PJ: I felt some kicks. So yes.
Dane: Whatever you say. Babe. Let's head back.
[PJ and Dane head back inside.]

MELINDA'S AND FELICIA'S HOUSE. SECOND FLOOR HALLWAY. NIGHT
[Wanda has just gotten out of the bathroom and bumps into Sylvia whom is walking towards her direction. She is shocked and recognizes her.]
Wanda: You?!
Sylvia: Ah. You're the waitress that other time.
Wanda: What the heck are you doing here?
Sylvia: I live with them now? We made up.
Wanda: That's lies. If I remember correctly. You tried to break them up. And then I heard that you were trying to force the both of them to marry you.
Sylvia: Yes. I was close. But of course. Their family were persistent.
Wanda: I think you should leave.
Sylvia: I don't think so. Think you're also my type. How about I prove to you that I live here. And have fun in my room.
Wanda: Heck no. Not interested. Even if I was. Into women. It wouldn't be you.
Sylvia: Oh really?
Wanda: You're a wicked woman who messes with people's lives with no care. No man or woman in their right mind would want to be with you.
Sylvia: Your boss' wife was. Till things changed between us.
Wanda: And that was your fault. You lost your chance. So don't try with me.
[Sylvia smirks.]
Sylvia: I love a challenging woman.
Wanda: I'm heading back to the main party if you would kindly just stepped out of the way.
Sylvia: You bumped into me. Waitress.
Wanda: Stop with the games. I'm really going.
[Wanda just forcefully pushes Sylvia to the side and walks forward. Sylvia then SHIMMERS over in front of her, shocking Wanda.]
Wanda: What the hell?!
Sylvia: Exactly. I'm hell and you're my heaven.
[Wanda now seems annoyed.]
Wanda: If that was you trying to flirt, it was super corny and did not work.
[Samantha then runs in seeing Wanda first. And goes over to her not noticing Sylvia.]
Samantha: There you are? Boss is wondering about you. And Graham was worried too?
Wanda: Sorry. I bumped into this bitch.
Sylvia: Helloooo. I'm right here.
[Samantha then finally notices Sylvia.]
Samantha: I see. I remember her from back then. Now let's go. We know she's bad company.
And still here. Enough with the insults.
Wanda: You had it coming.
Sylvia: Fine. Go. I'll just be in my bed.
Wanda: Whatever you say. Liar.
[Sylvia then grumbles and walks away. Samantha glances her eyes over back at Wanda.]
Samantha: What do you mean by liar?
Wanda: I'll tell you later. After. Or tomorrow.
Samantha: Okay. Back to the party.
[The two then head out in the opposite direction from where Sylvia left and continue down the hallway to head downstairs back to the main floor.]

TOP OF GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE. DAY
[Chris is with Jacob and Helena on the top of it.]
Jacob: Fortunately things have calmed down now.
Helena: Unfortunately we suffered a bit of lost with whitelighters and some good witches.
Chris: Those princesses of evil are really a threat right now. Sending darklighters out to cause havoc.
Jacob: We talked with the others. Helena and I think these princesses were probably manipulated just like those good witches. We all believe that Wargarias probably was involved.
Helena: Lately. From our sources, say he wants revenge on the Chosen Ones for his failure.
Chris: But they aren't punishing us. Really.
Jacob: Not directly. But indirectly. Most of you are focused on your real lives. It's hard to keep up and protect all those witches, innocents, whitelighters, and whitelighter-witches as you can.
Helena: Even us. Us Elders were unable to watch over to make sure our guides were protected along with their charges.
Chris: That's unfortunate. And we still haven't figured whom the princesses of evil are either.
Jacob: All I heard from sources. It is that they only appeared disguised and never their true faces.
Chris: I see. Jacob.
Jacob: And also. Chris.
Chris: Yes. Jacob.
Jacob: So what is going with Melinda? You know. Chris. Even since after the honeymoon, she's been ignoring our calls and more focused on the real life. Her work.
Chris: Halliwell's is doing well now and super busy. Maybe Melinda doesn't trust anyone.
Jacob: Melinda has Felicia. Doesn't she? No excuse.
Helena: Exactly. What Jacob said.
Chris: Alright. Jacob. Helena. As one of my duties as an Elder, I'll try to ask her.
Jacob: Thank you.
Helena: This is needed. With our lost. We need all at hand.
Chris: Agreed. Jacob. Helena. I'll check with Melinda. And you two keep me the update on any attacks of those species. I believe they are trying to exterminate all like us. To make sure evil spreads. And no guidance for new witches.
Jacob: That's what the others along with Helena and myself thought so.
Helena: Also. Today's a special day for your cousin. We'll reconvene about more things on this problem later.
Chris: Understood.
[All three of them then ORB out.]

UNDERWORLD. UNKNOWN CAVE. DAY
[Wargarias is with Sylvia once more.]
Wargarias: Oh. Sylvia. Great job gaining that mortal, Wanda to our side. It be too suspicious for you to be there to deliver them the potions that keep Melinda's and Felicia's evil at bay.
Sylvia: I learned well from you. My Lord Wargarias. I was able to get into her weak points. And like all. They can't resist me.
Wargarias: Nope. Thanks to you. I have gained back more contracts as much as before.
Sylvia: There's no need for the thank. I would do anything for you. My Lord. You made me better.
Wargarias: Glad to hear that.
Sylvia: So what is my next task?
Wargarias: Keep with the seduction. Darling.
Sylvia: As you wish.
[Sylvia SHIMMERS out. Wargarias smirks.]
Wargarias: Looks I made the right decision turning this mortal into a demon. She's doing better than expected. And soon the rest of her humanity will be gone.

[Brooks, Hiram, Harrison, and the other Griffin Witches are sat all around the couches again, in the same sitting spots as last time, with Brooks in the middle and Hiram and Harrison by his side, facing at least most of them. They each have a cup of coffee in their hands.]
Brooks: Alright. Now everyone is here. And apologies for the early meeting. Now let's get started. Hiram. Please.
Hiram: Of course. Brooks. Our bounty. Those ones with the Power of Eight.
Harrison: They were supposed to be dealt with a while ago. But a lot of beings were after them.
Brooks: And of course. It was risky to go after that Angel. And believed that demon. Foolish decision.
[Brooks pauses a bit.]
Brooks (cont'd): The one who tasks us. Now he's giving us 48 hours to deal with them however. But keep the Twice-Blessed One, Wyatt Halliwell. Intact. He is captured status. Understood?
Griffin Witches: Understood.
Brooks: Now the teams. We'll split into two. One led by Hiram. And one Harrison. Team Alpha and Team Gamma.
Hiram: I'll be leading Team Alpha. As I am more of the experienced and more seasoned.
Harrison: And I guess that leaves me Team Gamma.
Brooks: So that's decided. Meeting adjourned. Mr. Greyling should have breakfast ready now prepared by his butler.

Princess of Evil: It's the only way to protect your wife and daughter. And another one.
[The Princess of Evil waves her hand to reveal a scene of Arika, looking pregnant, with a two year old now Jerri, fending off demons. Looking tired.]

Princess of Evil: You see that. Become my dark soldier. And you can protect them.
Wyatt: I...

Arika: What was what? It's Jerri crying again.

[Felicia then walks in the same outfit, with a half face mask also.]
Felicia: Hey. So you're here. I woke up and didn't see you. Love.
Melinda: I wanted to use the power that Wargarias gifted us. To dreamwalk and manipulate one to the dark side.
Felicia: Were you successful?
Melinda: No. There was an interruption of the dream. And I lost the chance.
Felicia: What a shame. You'll have other chances. Love.
Melinda: You're right.
Felicia: And now we got the Elders' attention.
Melinda: They are getting scared of the darklighters rising.
Felicia: As they should be. Those low-life demons. We had to go coy. Be more discreet with our targets.
Melinda: Yes. And now things will changed. So far now I called off our Darklighters for now.
Felicia: Yes. To prevent suspicion.
Melinda: And also not to create much chaos. We did what was needed.
Felicia: Yes. Got quite a bit of witches to the dark side now. And we are now their guides.
Melinda: Like the whitelighters to their charges.
Felicia: Yes. They are our charges now.
Melinda: And we can call them at will. Thanks to the power Wargarias gave us after we gave into our true selves.
Felicia: Yes. This freedom. I should have seduced you into the darkness before and not the other way before.
Melinda: I agree. Never felt so free. Than before.
Felicia: Yes. Feels great. Right. Love.
Melinda: Yes. It does. No stupid rules of personal gain. We can what we please.
Felicia: Come. Love. Time to head back to our new home.
Melinda: Yes.

[Edgar takes his arm to comfort Maya placing it on her shoulders.]
Edgar: It will be okay. Ms. Maya. Maybe she couldn't stay long. And just wanted to have a look at you.
Maya: Maybe. But still... It hurts seeing her back and then just...
Edgar: It will be fine. Ms. Maya. Things will be alright.
Maya: Thanks. Edgar. Anyway. I was going to come in and carry Lila. And then...
Edgar: Aquila arrived. I see. Well. Wipe up your tears. Don't let your daughter see you sad. And food will be ready soon.
Maya: Alright. Edgar.

Maya (cont'd): You saw her too right? I bet you're confused too? Lila. And why she was near you. But you put an orb shield up?

STREET OUTSIDE PJ'S CONDO. DAY
[Harrison is there with five other Griffin Witches taking a glance at the place.]

Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Griffin Witch #3: The streets are clear.
Griffin Witch #4: And there's not much people around.
Griffin Witch #5: Best to strike as soon as possible.
Harrison: It's too risky. You never know. The landlord could be around and hear noises.
Griffin Witch #1: We made noises before. Harrison. Remember.
Griffin Witch #2: And as always. We're always able to get away. Thanks to our generous partner.
Griffin Witch #3: Our creator.
Griffin Witch #4: It's six against one.
Griffin Witch #5: The odds are in our favor.
Harrison: Good point. But we can't just rush in. They are Warren Witches and know how to get the first move.
Griffin Witch #1: Maybe go in disguise. And then the rest of us can sneak in. From behind. As you distract her.
Harrison: That's a great idea. Going to need a disguise. We'll reconvene back later. Once I figure it out.
Griffin Witch #1: For now. We lay low. But still....
Harrison: Still what? Winston.
Winston/Griffin Witch #1: I think a few of us should stay and keep watch. In case of any visitors she gets.
Harrison: I see. Well. Winston. I guess you can stay. But only you. Don't to raise much suspicion.
Winston: Understood. Gamma Leader.
[Winston nods. Harrison looks over to the others.]

[Aquila then goes over to her closet, which is filled with all different outfits in black. She moves between them and finds an outfit, of a classic style leather and tight pants, like the same outfit that Bianca, usually wore on her assassin missions.]
Aquila (cont'd): Yes. Perfect. Oh. Bianca. You couldn't finish what you started. I will now.
[The good side of Aquila fights through, gripping now the side of the slider door of closet.]

Vera: Leila. Remember we owe him. Would have no place to stay because of that Elder.
Leila: Yea. Still same situation. Remember. Ashliel gave us a place to stay too. I'm just afraid...

Vera: Yea.
[They continue to walk a bit more but eventually stumble unto Kayla whom is also patrolling the corridors of the underworld.]

Vera: You went on a killing spree and got rid of most of our sisters.
Kayla: That's the past. Girls. Let's not keep a grudge.
Leila: Not keep a grudge? Seriously?
Vera: You cost us our base.
Kayla: Why need that fancy place? With the nature of phoenix witches and their bounty, always moving around.
Leila: Good point. But still need a home to get back too.
Vera: And that place was our new home. And you....
Kayla: Whatever. Let's get to the real point. Why are you two girls here?
Leila: It's none of your business.
Vera: We don't have to answer to you.
Kayla: You know. I can make you two talk.
Leila: You can try.
Vera: But nothing will be revealed.
Kayla: We'll see about that.

Vera: Leila!
Leila (struggling): You kno... w wha... t to d.. Faced some...
[Vera nods and shoots an energy ball. And it causes Leila to explode into dust seemingly. The energy ring goes away and Kayla is in shock.]
Kayla: Noo!

Leila: Yes. Time to feel powerless now.
Kayla: Grr. You'll pay for this.
[Leila finishes the stripping and Kayla falls to her knees.]
Vera: Let's take example from Maya and Aquila. And capture her to question.
Leila: Great idea.
Kayla: That's if you catch me. I may be powerless but I learned how to escape pretty quickly.
[Kayla rushes off.]

[Coop takes a seat in front of Gwen.]
Gwen: So what's up? You didn't come here to just check on up on me. Co-owner.
[Gwen winks at him.]
Coop: No. For remembrance. It's been a while after I was here to take over for a bit and since I left you in charge.
Gwen: You tried to visit this place often. Right? And just seeing it again. Brings back memories.
Coop: But I really proud of what you done to this place. You kept the aspect of what it was. Intact.
Gwen: Phoebe was my idol. When I started reading her articles when my family was in San Francisco when I was a young kid. And I knew it.
Coop: I see. That's great to hear. You know. I always wanted to ask...
Gwen: I know. Maybe Wyatt wanted to go for The Bay Mirror.
Coop: Yes.
Gwen: I tried. But Wyatt is adamant. Want his own thing.
Coop: I understand. Really wished it stayed in the family. But none of have an interest for it. And Chris has his own basically empire now.
Gwen: Out all the partners that Vincent Morgan had. He picked Chris.
Coop: I know. But it's good for him. Chris was always being worried being under Wyatt's shadow. Having him have this is not bad.
Gwen: Yea I guess. So I know you been busy with charges. Without Phoebe, you just need something to do.
Coop: Yea. The Head Cupid tried to make a deal to be full cupid but I couldn't. I can't let my daughters forget me. Or myself too. After all. Phoebe and I raised them well together.
Gwen: I understand. So what brings you back? Besides you know just taking a good look at The Bay Mirror again.
Coop: I had to come back to PJ's birthday party.
Gwen: Right. Wyatt and I are good friend me. He has invited me. But got pending plans already. Amaria has a charity fundraiser tonight. So...
Coop: No worries. Good catching up. But I must go to see my family before the party.

Caitlin: Mom. And Mom. I can't wait for grandpa to arrive.
Peyton: The same. It's been a while.
Katherine: Months. I wonder if he aged.
Peyton: Katherine!
Katherine: What? Just joking. I know he's immortal.
Peyton: That's not funny. Maybe you don't know humor because of how long you been in the world.
[Katherine rolls her eyes at Peyton.]
Katherine: Love. How can you say that?
Peyton: Sorry. I didn't. It's just I wanted to rebuttal.
Katherine: Moms. Please don't fight. Remember. Happy day for Aunt PJ.

Katherine: Sorry. Honey.
Caitlin: Good. I wonder what's taking grandpa so long.
Peyton: Well. Your grandpa wanted to stop by someplace first. He'll be here soon.
Caitlin: Also.
Peyton: Also. The party will be at P3. I told Kyle and he's fine.
Katherine: Are sure about this? From what you told me, P3 wasn't a good place for her. That's why she handed it over to Kyle even though you said Chris asked if PJ would change her mind.
Peyton: I'm hoping having the party at P3 will change her mind. P3 was meant to be in the family. My Aunt Piper started it and Aunt Prue and Aunt Phoebe contributed it.
Katherine: You know. PJ saw Kyle as family too. When I was working there, it was in good hands under him.
Peyton: I know. Kyle's great. But P3. Power of three. Our legacy.
Katherine: I understand. Peyton. But still. If things don't pan out. What's going to happen?
Peyton: Then it can't be helped. I at least want to try.
Katherine: I also heard that PJ may not stay long here. After the baby is born I assume. She will move away. It's my enhanced hearing. I spied. During the housewarming party. I got nosy and heard everything.
Peyton: What do you mean? Where is she going? No. Back to acting again somewhere else.
Katherine: No. It's something else. But as you said. They are going somewhere else.
Peyton: Where? Did you hear what the place is?
Katherine: A province called Eclary. Never heard of it. Must be a small area.
Peyton: I see. She can't just...
Katherine: I didn't get the whole story of it. Wasn't paying attention. Just bits and pieces. Maybe PJ will tell you eventually.
Peyton: She better. Anyway. Dad should be here soon.
[Coop comes in through the kitchen.]
Coop: Hey.
Caitlin: Grandpa!
[Caitlin rushes over to hug her grandpa.]
Coop: Hey. Darling. How's my favorite granddaughter doing?
Caitlin: Grandpa. You're so silly. I'm your only granddaughter. Of course I'm your favorite.
Coop: You're so smart. Just like your mothers.
Katherine: Hey. Mr. Halliwell. Welcome back.
Peyton: Yea. Dad. Welcome back.
Coop: Thanks for the welcome. I can't wait for the party. Where is it?
Peyton: I booked P3.
Coop: What?! You know how PJ feels about that place.
Peyton: Katherine already reprimanded me about it. Just give me this okay. Dad.
Coop: Alright. But you know how P3 was to PJ. That's why she gave it up despite Chris, becoming head temporarily, gave her a choice to take it.
Peyton: I know it might bring back bad memories. Because of what happened. And was partly the reason mom died. And PJ thinks it was her fault.
Coop: We all know it wasn't. PJ was manipulated.
Peyton: And mom knew too. But she just had to.
Coop: PJ was a darling ladybug. You know how your mother is. She had to despite risking her life.
Peyton: Let's not keep on this. And be happy. As my daughter has said. It's happy day. PJ's birthday.
Coop: It's so nice to my girls again. After a good period of time. All together.
Peyton: We really miss you. Dad.
Coop: I know. But without Phoebe. Your mother. I just can't be here. Everything here reminds me of her.
Peyton: I understand. Dad.
Katherine: Anyway. Coop. I mean. Mr. Halliwell. Since you're her now, why not take your granddaughter out to the part and something.
Peyton: Katherine and I want to head to P3 to make sure things will be set for the party.
Coop: I don't mind. Sure.
Caitlin: That's great. Grandpa. Let me get changed. And I'll meet you out.
[Caitlin then super speeds in a pink blur.]
Peyton: That girl. I told her to be careful using her powers.
Katherine: She's like you. I remember the stories you told me. Were a bit of a rebel.
Peyton: Yes. But it was my downfall. I don't my daughter. I guess our daughter to go the same path I had to.
Coop: You girls. Go. If you want everything perfect for PJ's party.
Peyton: Alright. Will you be fine? What if you lose her in the park?
Coop: I won't. Don't' worry. Good at finding people. Remember.
Peyton: That's right. Alright.
Katherine: Let's go. Babe.
Peyton: Yea.
[Peyton and Katherine head out. Caitlin returns with clothing for the outside.]
Caitlin: I'm ready. Grandpa.
Coop: Alright. Caitlin.
[Coop takes Caitlin's hand and the two also leave the kitchen.]

PJ'S CONDO. DAY

[CUT TO]
PJ'S CONDO. FRONT DOOR AREA/ LIVING ROOM. DAY
PJ: Who would pay a visit for me this morning? Or maybe a birthday surprise. Hmm.
[She then goes to the door and looks through the eyehole and sees her landlord, David Grant.]
PJ (cont'd): This is a weird surprise. I know I been keeping on the payments. Wonder what brings him here today.
[PJ then goes to open to door, to reveal a tall man with dark brown eyes, in a suit.]
David: Hello. Miss Halliwell.
PJ: Hi. Mr. Grant. This is a strange surprise.
David: I heard what happened in the news. About the kidnappings. And wanted to check on you. And of course the baby.
PJ: As you can see. I am fine. Mr. Grant.
David: Looks to be. And where is your wonderful husband?
PJ: Working as usual. Someone has to put in the work to have enough for the baby. Since I am indisposed right now.
David: I see. Saw your movie. And it was amazing.
PJ: Thank you. Mr. Grant. And I know you didn't just come to check on me. What's going on?
David: I heard rumors of you possibly moving away. So I just need to get a heads up on the leave date. So I can find someone to give this condo to.
PJ: I see. I don't know how you heard it. But no one knows. This is....
[David smirks.]
David: You got me. Witch.
[He then reaches his hand making a portal when a peach colored energy shield appears in front of PJ's belly deflecting the attack knocking him back against hitting the door. PJ is shocked.]
PJ (to her belly): Good baby.
PJ (to fake David): Let's see who you really are.
[PJ sends a stream of ice leaving his head intact. She then BEAMS over the fake David.]
PJ (cont'd): Now reveal who you are or else.
[The Fake David scoffs.]
Fake David: Not likely. Just let me freeze to death. I rather suffer that fate than reveal to you witchy bitch.
[PJ rolls her eyes angrily at the Fake David.]
PJ: Why you!
Fake David: Do it. Finish me off. Witch.
PJ: I would. But need to get information before finishing you off.
Fake David: As I said. Not saying. Anyth... ooh. Feeling the chills.
PJ: Fine. Do it the hard way. I'll test this new power that I have recently developed.
Fake David: No power will make me talk.
[PJ smirks.]
PJ: You'll see.
Fake David: It will be quite a sho... ooh. Chilling.
[Fake David's appearance to turn pale and blue. It seems he is about to die from hypothermia. PJ readies her voice and begins to use Voice Manipulation Command!]
PJ: Tell me! Who you are!
[The power works as Fake David's head moves a little bit despite being almost at near death to the ice.]
Fake David: My name is Harrison and was sent to get rid of you. The Chosen Ones. I was waiting for the right moment and then my men would have came in. But whatever that burst was unexpected.
[Fake David/Harrison now suffers from hypothermia. His eyes wide at death's time. Due him dying, his power of glamouring is lost and the true self is revealed back to normal.]
PJ: Well that's unfortunate. I can't let you be gone that easily of that attempt on my life. And my information from you. They say cupid's tears can heal anything.
[PJ then moves closer to the frozen dead Harrison and thinks back to a time when she was forced to kill Phoebe. Tears come pouring. It removes the ice from his body and he recovers from his hypothermia catching his breath. Quickly, she then pins Harrison against the door.]
PJ (cont'd): You owe me now. Harrison.
[He grumbles.]
Harrison: You should have just let me be. Now what you did for me is torture. Saving my life. I can't....
[PJ smirks.]
PJ: That's right. You can't target me anymore. Because you owe my life to me.
[Harrison looks distraught a bit. But then smirks.]
Harrison: You should have just let me die. Foolish witch. I can't go against you. But my other friends will.
[Harrison snaps his fingers. Winston appears WHIRLING in with the other four Griffin Witches surrounding her.]
Harrison (cont'd): It's your task. Boys.
[He WHIRLS out. PJ widens her eyes in shock.]
Winston: You're surrounded. Witch. Meet your fate.
PJ: That's if you can catch me.
[PJ begins to BEAM out but Winston and the other Griffin Witches are too quick and WHIRL over, conjuring athames in each other their hands, in seconds, placing all of them near her neck.]
Winston: Sorry. Gal. I assume you met one of us before. You know we're just like those Phoenixes.
[PJ sighs heavily in discontent.]
PJ: Fine. Take me. But put those pointed things down. Or else you and others will face the wrath of my unborn baby. She or he was able to knock Harrsion out. And you five too.
Winston: You're bluffing.
PJ: You should ask your boss and find out.
Griffin Witch #1: Come on. It's a trap.
Griffin Witch #2: Remember. What boss said?
Griffin Witch #3: Only one is needed alive.
Griffin Witch #4: Come on. Winston.
Winston: I don't think so. Witch. We put our blades down. And you will try some tricks. Like escaping with that power of yours. Cupid-Witch.
PJ: Whatever you said. I'm just warning.
Winston: You're getting on my nerves. Let's kill her.
PJ: I guess this is my fate. Sorry. Baby.
[Winston smirks.]
Winston: Aw. So sweet. I could cry. Not! Let's do it. Boys.
[Winston and the other Griffin Witches prepare to stab PJ with their athames when in seconds, a shadowed figure appears in a quick second from under the couch, shooting shadowed blades stabbing them as they explode and disappear, like Phoenix Witches when they get destroyed the magical way. And the athames drop to the ground. The Shadowed Figure then reforms himself, revealing his physical form to be Hermes.]
PJ: Who are you? And I think I know. You're one of those who went after us and my cousins. And our allies.
Hermes: You remembered well. Cupid-Witch.
PJ: This is weird. Why? And what did you do to them?
Hermes: They'll reappear again. Still continuing their task. They are like Phoenix Witches. And will reform.
PJ: Are you being a messenger again?
Hermes: And also protector. You see. The princesses of evil. Well. One of them. Now sees the use of the Chosen Ones now. And does not wish any harm. The attacks before was only for Kalia and Artemis. It was you all who wanted to get involved. And...
[Hermes pauses a bit.]
Hermes (cont'd): We had to keep attacking.
PJ: I see. But still trust you. Especially when you won't tell whom your bosses are.
Hermes: Of course not. It's not time yet. My princesses will reveal themselves when the time is right.
PJ: Whatever. This has turned into a horrible birthday.
[Hermes smirks.]
Hermes: Oh. It's your birthday. I had no idea. Thought your upsetness was doing to what I heard are mood swings due to the pregnancy.
PJ: Shut up. And get out of my home.
Hermes: Oh my goodness. No thank you for saving your life. Or anything.
PJ: I could have handled it. My baby would have protected me.
Hermes: Then why didn't it. Again. When those Griffin Witches surrounded you all.
PJ: I... Guess. My baby is unpredictable. Like how my cousin was in the womb.
Hermes: Possibly. Also. I'll be keeping an eye on you. And my other friends. Too. Hide in the shadows we are.
PJ: We don't need any protection. From either of you. And especially you.
Hermes: Oh yea. If it wasn't for me, you would have been taken by those Griffin Witches. Or even worse. You died along with your unborn baby. And that's an unfortunate fate.
PJ: Why do you care?
Hermes: I don't. But we all serve our princesses. And what they say. Go. And they want you all protected. Despite our methods last time. It was an order to make sure Kalia and Artemis didn't reveal anything to you all. It was a forced hand.
PJ: You beings are despicable. Forced hand. Seriously?
Hermes: It's the truth. And be careful. They'll come back. I suggest maybe head back home. At least you'll have more to protect you.
PJ: Excuse me. Hermes. I'm fine on my own.
Hermes: Again. Not what happened a while ago?
PJ: It was just a minor overlook. I will be keen next time.
Hermes: Whatever. Now I must go. Have to send other messages for my princesses.
[Hermes FADES out. PJ grimaces.]
PJ: Who are these princesses of evil? First they send their lackeys after us. And they send them to protect us. Something is up.
[PJ feels a baby bump.]
PJ (cont'd): Oof. Sorry. Baby. About stressing you out.
[PJ then pauses a bit thinking about what Hermes said.]
PJ (cont'd): Hermes has a point. They will come back. At least back my old home. There is protection. But I had it here too. It must be their alliance. Like the Phoenix Witches. Maybe I'm safer at Magic School.
[PJ then BEAMS out.]
[GO TO COMMERICAL BREAK]
OLD ABANDONED PHOENIX WITCHES' LAIR. DAY
[It is not what it looks like before. About four to five years ago. Just a decrepit old house in shambles.]
[CUT TO]
OLD ABANDONED PHOENIX WITCHES' LAIR. BASEMENT. DAY
[Chris is seen a little beaten up and weakened chained to his chair. Aquila is there in his black all leather Phoenix Witch Outfit just like Bianca used to wear. She smirks.]
Aquila: Oh powerful Elder. How's it feel to be powerless now?
Chris: Aquila. I know the good of you is still in there. Fight it.
Aquila: There was never good in me. Chris. It was a ploy. One day I will get Lila and raise her as my own. And rebuild the coven again. And also finish what Bianca was meant to do. Killing you.
Chris: Please. Aquila. I know it's not true. Maya told me you came to Lila and didn't want to take her. It means the good side was there.
Aquila: It's gone now. And I'll make sure it never comes back. It's time for me to return to my reign. As the leader of the coven again. And killing you. Is the perfect initiation. Boy.
Chris: Look at me. Aquila. Remember our days together. With Maya. Us. Edgar.
Aquila: Nice try. Elder. But that won't work. The Aquila you knew is gone.
[Aquila walks over closer to Chris grazing his face with her right hand and the left hand ready with an energy ball in hand.]
Aquila (cont'd): Any last words? Elder.
[Chris scoffs.]
Chris: Once you come to your senses, you'll regret it. Aquila.
Aquila: I don't think so. It's time to finish what Bianca started. When someone can't do thing right, I have to do it myself.
[She smirks. The tint of the color of the energy ball can be seen in a reflection of his eyes before he closes it, now about accept this unfortunate deathly fate. From the side, a fire ball is shot out from someone unseen hitting Aquila's arm, burning it.]
Aquila (cont'd): Aah! What the hell!
[This fortunately causes Aquila to move her arm which sends the energy ball off to the wall. Kalia then reveals herself in the open a bit from a good distance from Aquila.]
Kalia: I got more coming from that lady.
[Kalia then creates two fire balls in her hands. Aquila turns around sees her, biting her lip, in anger.]
Aquila: So do I. Girl. You'll pay for burning me.
[Aquila then also summons two energy balls in her hand too. They both shoot it. Their attacks clash in the air making an explosion. They both stand still standing their ground from the impact from the blast that could have knocked them both back.]
Kalia: Nice on. But this isn't over.
Aquila: Let's keep fighting. We'll see who wins the end. And it will be me.
Kalia: Unlikely. I came from a father who was meant to be the right hand of the Source of All Evil. And you're just a Phoenix Witch. A lackey bounty hunter that only does tasks for money.
[Aquila quickly SHIMMERS over to where Kalia is and instantly summoning an Athame in her hand, and puts it against her neck.]
Aquila: Oh darling. I don't like when people mock me. You'll be coming with me today.
[Aquila then SHIMMERS out with Kalia before she is able to react to orb out and screams out, "Chris", before taken.]
Chris: Kalia! Nooo! I have to get out of here!
[Chris tries to wiggle out of his chairs but it's too tight.
Footsteps are heard with his face giving hope.]
Chris (cont'd): Thank goodness. Someone else figured out where I am.
[It is Maya who comes down to the steps with Lila, in her arms. Chris looks overjoyed.]
Maya: Honey.
Chris: Maya dear. And Lila?! What is she doing here too? It's a dangerous place.
Maya: I was forced to take her with me. And really thought she would be a good help. She helped orbed me out to safety before.
Chris: Alright. Give a try. Still. It was risky bringing her here.
Maya: I know. Chris. Let's let Lila do her trick.
[Maya then moves closer to Chris.]
Maya (cont'd): Come on. Lila. Wave your hands and get Daddy out of those chains. Like you helped mommy that time.
Lila: Goo gah.
[Lila waves her hands and the chains are ORBED away releasing Chris form the chair.]
Chris: Alright. We have to go help Kalia. Aquila could do the same to her what she did to me.
[Chris tries to move but is too weak and falls off balance but it's caught by the chair.]
Maya: Chris. Don't. We must take you home now. I think Kalia can handle herself. That's why the Elders tasked as you and your sibling's whitelighter for a reason.
Chris: You're right. Time to head back home. And also let Archibald know what happened.
Maya: I already did. Archibald sensed something was weird when you never came back from the recent meeting you finished.
Chris: I see. Now let's go. Before she comes back.
Maya: Sounds good. I don't know what's going on. I thought Aquila changed.
Chris: I think something took over her. Made Aquila the worst version of herself. When she sacrificed herself to deal with her sister. But I promise you. She will come back to her senses.
Maya: I hope so.
Chris: Alright. Come on. I think I need... Woo wee. Rest.
[Chris nearly falls again but catches himself.]
Maya: Alright. Chris. Really time to go.
[Maya cuddles around Chris enough to touch closely to his body and SHIMMERS out with him along with holding Lila.]
[CUT TO]
MAGIC SCHOOL. THE LIBRARY. DAY
[PJ is on the table with stacks of books that has Griffins on the subject but nothing on the Griffin Witches.]
PJ: Man. I got nothing. Or how to defend themselves from those things. The Griffin Witches. Maybe the Book of Shadows could have something.
[Then in a flash of light. A thick black book lands in front of PJ, and starts flipping through the pages, and lands on a page about Griffin Witches.]
PJ (cont'd): My god. What the heck. Who...
[PJ then moves her head back and forth and all around to figure who sent the book to who but sees no one. She then begins to read it.]
PJ (reading):
GRIFFINS
The Griffins are a group of male assassin witches, the counterpart to the Phoenix Witches. They were created from a demonic man scorned by a Phoenix Witch whom he fell in love and she betrayed him. He had figured out some dark magic and kidnapped a Phoenix Witch, while on her mission, and also killing her to get her blood. And with the blood, he used dark magic fused with griffin blood along with his own blood to create the first Griffin Assassin Witch, with the same ferocity and vengeance that he held.
PJ (cont'd): Very interesting. If they are the counterpart, it mean they could be vanquished the same way. And can resurrect. Like Phoenix Witches. Let's see what else I can find on them.
[PJ then flips through the next page and notices the name, Wargarias on the page.]
PJ (cont'd):
It's not what I was looking for. But...
[PJ looks to be about to read a passage on him when she hears a familiar voice.]
Dane (o/s): PJ!
[Dane now rushes in, with his business suit still on. He then stands next to her.]
PJ: Dane.
Dane: I was so worried not seeing you home. And I smelt something off.
PJ: Yea. I got attacked by some Griffin Witches.
Dane: Oh my. Them?
PJ: After that, somehow I had an ally saved me. And our baby. It seems she or he has power in womb. And thought it was safer to be at Magic School for now.
Dane: I see. This place is safe. Evil can't get it. I came to my father-in-law place to get through the secret opening. And found no one was there.
PJ: They are probably out. Probably planning something for my birthday. I told them didn't want anything big. Or even a party.
Dane: Come on. PJ. You're turning twenty-eight.
[PJ grimaces.]
PJ: It's just another year getting older.
Dane (grinning): And wiser.
PJ: Whatever you said. But anyway. Something came to me here.
Dane: What? My darling wife.
PJ: Come pull up a chair and look at this.
Dane: Okay.
[Dane grabs a chair and sits next to PJ where he can get a good view of the page in the book for Wargarias.]
Dane (con'td): They got his image pretty accurate.
PJ: Yea. I know. Let's see. Maybe we can find his weakness.
Dane: Then let's read.
[They both begin reading.]
PJ/Dane (reading):
WARGARIAS
An upper level demon whom is a master manipulator. He was disciple under Zahn and has been around in the underworld for centuries. Learning everything he knows from his mentor. This demon loves the power of control, and with his deals, makes contracts where any of his client's souls belong to him. Where if something goes wrong, he is able to control do what he wants. And through his contracts, has gained powers over the centuries.
His most proud soul, was from a demonic soldier that rivals Balthazor, this demon of Power and Vengeance. But love is a powerful magic, and this soldier fell to the weakness of love.
History reveals not much about him. Wargarias lies to stay in hiding unless he has an ulterior motive for his evil goals. Even vanquishing him, is unknown. One would think the Power of Three could be the key. Or something more powerful that can get rid of this truly immortal demon.
PJ/Dane: Wow!
PJ: So Wargarias is that discreet.
Dane: Yea. From what I heard. And I think I remember of stories species of like Balthazor. Powerful demonic soldiers and such.
PJ: Like you. And your father.
Dane: Not like me. At all. Or my father. But I seen one. And they are heartless. I doubt they can fall prey to love.
PJ: Well. Balthazor did. So what stopped whatever was said in this book?
[The Book now vanishes in plain sight.]
Dane: So the book is gone now.
[PJ then looks back at the table.]
PJ: No way. I guess it was time. Only wanted to reveal to us the information needed.
Dane: I know it's safe here. But let's head back home. Or maybe see your dad. He should be back by now.
PJ: Right. Gives me a chance to hang with my niece more too.
Dane: Yea. Come on.
[PJ and Dane head out of the library.]

SOUTH BAY SOCIAL SERVICES. TAMORA'S OFFICE. DAY
[Tamora is on the phone with Wyatt.]
Tamora (on phone): My goodness. If Aunt Prue hadn't appeared, my employees would have lost their lives.
Wyatt (on phone): I don't know what's going on? But why are these Griffin Witches targeting us.
Tamora (on phone): It's obvious. Wyatt. Our family is considered a threat to the whole underworld. Someone probably hired them.
Wyatt (on phone): But mines didn't want to kill me. It's like... They wanted me for something.
Tamora (on phone): And what did you do?
Wyatt (on phone): I had to fend them off. But you know. They are basically like Phoenix Witches. Keep resurrecting and very agile to allow their heads to be chopped by my sword.
Tamora (on phone): And I assume you tired out. And almost got captured. Right?
Wyatt (on phone): Yea. But a cloaked figure just stared at them with its eyes. And they just vanished. And was saved from the fate.
Tamora (on phone): Could it be another whitelighter protecting you? Like how Aunt Prue was when she couldn't reveal herself to Tamora and me.
Wyatt (on phone): No. It wasn't that. My sensing powers have advanced since then. There was some darkness in this person. And then he said....
Tamora (on phone): Said what?
Wyatt (on phone): We'll meet again. Twice-Blessed One.
Tamora (on phone): I guess even the darker side of the magical community knows of your status.
Wyatt (on phone): I guess so. Why did I have to be the one with this title?
Tamora (on phone): Sometimes things happen for a reason. Wyatt. With no explanation.
Wyatt (on phone): I guess so. Anyway. Have to get back to work. Finish some things before PJ's party.
Tamora (on phone): Oh yes. I'm finishing up on my side too. After Prue did some memory wipe, I sent most of them home for safety.
Wyatt (on phone): I lucked out. They only attack me in my office.
Tamora (on phone): Luckily. But also. Besides Aunt Prue. Someone came too.
Wyatt (on phone): Whom?
Tamora (on phone): One of those Shadow Demons who came after Kalia and Artemis the other time. Said something along the lines of it was a forced hand. And they had to attack us.
Wyatt (on phone): That's such a sorry excuse. And what else?
Tamora (on phone): The princesses of evil have changed their minds. Wanted us safe.
Wyatt (on phone): And yet they sent those darklighters to wreak havoc and defer witches and whitelighter-witches to the evil side by getting rid of their whitelighters.
Tamora (on phone): Yea I know. You can never trust evil. Didn't paid mine to it.
Wyatt (on phone): Anyway. It seems Aquila appeared.
Tamora (on phone): Really?
Wyatt (on phone): It seems she's back to her our self. Chris was almost killed if Kalia hadn't gotten to him in time.
Tamora (on phone): Wow. I guess that's why your mom. Aunt Piper. Never trusted Phoenix Witches.
Wyatt (on phone): Anyway. Let's move from this. We both got to get back to our work.
Tamora (on phone): Yea.
[Tamora hangs the phone on her end. She returns to her computer to do work.]

UNDERWORLD. SOME CAVE. DAY
[The cloaked figure is there with Brooks. He slaps him hard on the face.]
Cloaked Figure: Idiot. I thought you Griffins were the best of the best.
Brooks: The Shadow Demons got involved. Sir.
[The cloaked figure then takes off his cloak, reveal to be Gideon, in dark colored robes.]
Gideon: They are considered the lowest of lowest. And yet they were able to outsmart you Griffin Witches. And you even failed to get me what I want. The Twice-Blessed One.
Brooks: Sorry. Sir. We won't fail next time.
Gideon: You better not. Now go back to your coven. And leave me be.
Brooks: Yes. Sir.
[Brooks WHIRLS out.]
Gideon: I was close to my revenge. Hurt the ones of the Leo's progeny and the rest of whom he cares about. His nieces and nephews. Children. And then manipulate Wyatt to be by my side. And have him kill his own father. And hemercilessly killed me. You will pay. Leo Wyatt.

HALLIWELL/COOP MANOR. LIVING ROOM. DAY

Caitlin: Yea. I'm flying. Higher. Higher. Uncle Dane.
Dane: Of course. My favorite niece.
Caitlin: I'm your only niece.
[Dane just grins after hearing that comment and continues playing with Caitlin.]
PJ: Thanks for coming back. Dad. It means a lot.
Coop: Anything for you. My darling daughter.
PJ: And then after. You're back to focus on the charges again.
Coop: Yea. Look. I loved Phoebe. And can't love anyone else. This is the only way.
PJ: I understand. Dad.
[Caitlin is heard giggling in the background as the two talk.]
PJ: Is this the curse our family? We can't ever have a peaceful celebration. Some things just always happen.
Coop: I know. What happened before the wedding? And the past holiday celebrations. Over the years.
PJ: Yea. Werewolves. And others.
Coop: Sirens. During that day that was meant for the Wicanning.
PJ: Yea.
Coop: As least things are fine now.
PJ: It seems so. We'll see what tomorrow brings for our family. Those Griffin Witches have retreated for now. But they'll back as the messenger had said, Hermes.
Coop: I can't believe my daughter is turning twenty-eight. In about two years, you'll be reaching the 3-0.
PJ: Don't even give me thoughts about it. So... I assume a big party is planned. Even though I said...
Coop: Of course. After what's been going on, you deserve a good party.
PJ: Yea. I guess. Dad.
[Dane now puts Caitlin down back on the floor. She runs over to PJ.]
Caitlin: Aunt PJ. That was so fun. You and Uncle Dane should come visit more. When I'm around on the weekend. No Magic School.
PJ: We'll try to. Caitlin.
Caitlin: Okay. And can I touch the belly. See if I can feel the kick of my future cousin.
PJ: Sure. Caitlin. Go ahead.
[Caitlin goes to feel the belly.]
Caitlin: Ooh. Feels weird.
PJ: I know.
Caitlin: I'm hungry now. Can we go out and eat? And stop by Aunt Melinda's place.
PJ: Sure. Why not.
Coop: Or we can stay here. And I can make something. See if I haven't lost my touch.
Caitlin: Are you sure? Grandpa.
Coop: Yea. Give us time to bond better. Since I'm going be here by end of tonight.
PJ: Sounds good to me. I do miss your cooking. Dad.
Dane: Same. Mr. Halliwell.
Caitlin: I do too.
Coop: Dane. Would you able to help? Need a sous Chef.
Dane: Sure. I don't mind.
Caitlin: Can I come help too?
Coop: It's okay. Stay with your Aunt to keep her company. Watch some television or something.
Caitlin: Okay. Grandpa.
[Coop and Dane head out of the room. Caitlin joins PJ on the couch.]
PJ: So what are you in the mood for?
Caitlin: I want to watch Spy Kids.
PJ: Okay. I'm sure we can find that on one of the streaming services.
[PJ turns on the tv to an unseen tv app and then puts on Spy Kids. Music is heard on the background starting the movie as the both of them start watching.]

Kayla: Aah!
Leila: Come on. Just give us the information. And we'll set you free.
Vera: And maybe possibly give you your powers back.
Kayla: You can torture all night and on and on. But I'm not saying anything. And also. Where did you take my sister?
Leila: To get her back to the light.
Vera: At least there's still good in her.
Kayla: It's because of that allowed to be give into her dark self when protecting me.
Leila: Aquila would always protect all of us.
Vera: That's how she is. You're her sister and you don't even appreciate it.
Kayla: What sister. Aquila never fought to keep me with her by her side with my parents.
Leila: That's what you said.
Vera: Why should we believe you?
Kayla: You can't. But do I look I'm lying?
Leila: No. But still.
Vera: We don't trust you. After what you did.
Kayla: It was orders. Come on. And the money.
Leila: Anyway. Vera. Keep watch. We'll take turns.
Vera: Sure. Leila.
Leila: Good. I wish there was a way to get into her inner workings. Pry into her mind. To find who the princesses of evil are.
Vera: Maybe we had some clients in the past.
Leila: That may have the sort of power.
Vera: Maybe. We can get the others to investigate on that.
Leila: Yea. For now. We just have to try and keep pressuring her to talk.
Vera: The only choice we have now. Alright. Go. Leila. I got this.
Leila: Don't let her manipulate you. She's known to do that.
Vera: I got it.
[Leila nods and heads back up the stairs. Vera glares over at Kayla.]
Vera (cont'd): Now it's just me and you.
[Kayla scoffs.]
Kayla (sarcastic): I'm so glad.
[Vera sighs heavily and continues to keep an eye on Aquila.]

P3. EVENING
[PJ and Dane are in front of the entrance. She is wearing a lavender colored dress him a lavender suit to match. PJ is seen with a blindfold over her eyes.]
PJ: Why did it have to be a surprise? I can't know what the place is?
Dane: It was Peyton's idea. Thankfully you're very coordinated that I can guide you pretty easily.
PJ: Why thank you. Husband.
Dane: You're welcome. Let's go in. Everyone probably waiting inside.
PJ: Alright. Guide the way. Love.
Dane: Surely.
[PJ is led inside still with a blindfold by Dane.]
[CUT TO]
P3. MAIN AREA/DANCE FLOOR. EVENING
[It seems to be empty tables all around where the dance floor lays in the middle. There is slight darkness in the area. Dane is now in the area with a blindfolded PJ still.]
PJ: Can I open my eyes now? Dear.
Dane: Nope. You'll know when.
[The lights then flicker on revealing Piper, Leo, Coop, Paige, Wyatt, Chris, Melinda, Parker, Peyton, Tamora, Kat, and Junior, along with their loves, Arika, Maya, Felicia, Gabriel, Katherine, Enrique, Declan, and Angelie. Caitlin with close friend are there, including Kyle, along with Pam and Emily. Valentina is also there along with Kat's best friend, Gale all screaming "Surprise." PJ's eyes go wide in shock.]
PJ: Dane! You brought me here!
Dane: It was Peyton's idea. She thought this would you know want you to take over P3 again.
PJ: Well. Peyton. You are wrong. There will be no of that. Because Dane and I are possibly moving away.
Halliwell/Matthews Family: What?!
Wyatt: Really?!
Chris: This is a surprise.
Melinda: Yea. What brought upon this.
Tamora: This is.....
Kat: What are you thinking?
Junior: Is this that past PJ all over again?
Parker: I agree. Remember that rash decision of you selling P3 away to Morgan Tower.
PJ: It's not. I'll explain some time. But anyway. Since Peyton did hard work. And set up this party. I'll enjoy the moment. For now.
Peyton: Look. PJ. You can't just blurt out things like that. You ruined the mood. It was supposed to be your celebration. Now most of the emotions are all sorts now.
PJ: Well I can. It's my birthday. And can say whatever I want.
Peyton: Are you serious? PJ. I did this to make up for those troubles. I wanted today to be happy day for you.
PJ: Don't put it on me. Peyton. You chose this place. Had an ulterior motive. Look. Dane. Let's just celebrate my birthday somewhere else.
Dane: PJ. Let's not be rash about this. I know this place bring bad memories. Peyton worked on this. After all, P3 used to mean something to you.
PJ: It was never. Out of obligation. No one had the motivation to bring P3 back into the family. I chose that fate. And look where it's gotten me. I still haven't found myself despite having some success in the acting world.
Peyton: You don't mean that. PJ.
PJ: But I do.
Peyton: Come on. I worked for this. PJ. Don't be hard headed like mom was.
PJ: Don't you bring mom into this conversation. Peyton.
Peyton: Yes I can. She's my mom too. PJ. Now. Please enjoy your party.
PJ: You said I ruined the mood. How am I supposed to enjoy this party?
PJ (to Dane): Let's get out of here.
Dane: PJ....
PJ: Dane. Please...
Dane: No. PJ.
PJ: Did you just say "No" to me.
Dane: Yes I did. PJ. And you deserve it.
PJ: I do. Do I?
[Coop then walks over to PJ.]
Coop: I think I'll know what to do. And will be back quick.
PJ: What are you going to do? Dad.
[Coop smirks. He then forcefully uses his ring to BEAM out with PJ. Parker and Peyton then glance at each other.]
Parker: You know what's dad doing?
Peyton: I have an inkling.
[Maya then walks over to them.]
Maya: I know. Probably doing the same that was with Aquila. A vision journey of some sort. It helped her fight through the darkness. And I think it will help PJ fight through the bad parts she suffered from this club. And I think. I remember Chris mentioned. Had to deal with your Aunt Phoebe's death.
Chris: Yea. After that, Coop along with Parker and Peyton found her dead body delivered at the front step.
Peyton: So what now? We just wait for them.
Parker: I believe so.
Peyton: But everyone can enjoy the music and dance for now. Destress the situation.
Gabriel: Sounds good with me. Join me. My loving Parker.
[Gabriel takes Parker to the dance floor area. And the rest all follow.]
[CUT TO]
P3. MAIN AREA/DANCE FLOOR. LATE EVENING (LATER)
[On a table, PJ and Peyton are talking. Everyone else is enjoying the dance floor while others are eating the appetizers and drinking, except Caitlin whom is having a Shirley Temple.]
PJ: I'm sorry. Peyton. I was manipulated and turned dark, being lured to sell this place to that demon. And then in turn, mom, got involved unintentionally. And I just...
Peyton: I'm sorry. But P3 is a part of us. And you love running with it along Kyle and Pam and Emily, whom used to work there, before they moved to another city.
PJ: As I said. It's an obligation.
Peyton: I'm sure it was at first. You were always smiling. I think only reason was that demon, played with your mind.
PJ: That demon really messed with my mind. Dad took me on journey throughout my times at P3. Sure there were bad times but good ones too with Kyle, Pam, and Emily.
[PJ then takes a quick glance at the three and back at Peyton.]
Peyton: Did the journey change your mind?
PJ: I wavered a bit but as I revealed. I didn't mean to reveal it like that. You worked so hard planning this party for me.
Peyton: Yea. Could have waited.
PJ: I know. Sorry. Pey...
Peyton: It's alright. So you're moving. Huh?
PJ: Yea. Since it's just me and you, I'll just tell why.
[Peyton sighs heavily.]
Peyton: I already know. Katherine stumbled upon the conversation at the party with her super hearing.
PJ: I see. You know about where I'm going.
Peyton: Some province known as Eclary. Katherine didn't get much information besides that.
PJ: Yes. So it turns out my darling husband comes from royalty on his mortal mother's side. About a few days ago, his great aunt came to him. Explained everything. And at that party, he told me about it.
[Peyton's eyes goes wide in shock.]
Peyton: What is he? A duke or something.
PJ: Something. Anyway. But Dane has to leave soon. And he wanted to take me there. But as you see, in my condition. I can't.
Peyton: You know you could beam.
PJ: As far as he know, that family probably know anything of magic. Best to stay low key he says.
Peyton: But what if he doesn't come back in time when the baby comes.
PJ: Said he'll try his best to come back. If not, Dane will find a way to make it up.
Peyton: Yea I hope he does. Can't miss out. After all, it's the birth of his first child. I guess both of yours.
PJ: I know. But this is a great opportunity for him. To know the rest of his family more. You know Dane doesn't have that much family anymore besides his uncle and such. But he was never was close to them.
Peyton: You know. Could ask him to not go.
PJ: I can't. I don't want to miss this opportunity.
Peyton: If you said yes, and he might not be able to come back for the birth. That's just unfortunate.
PJ: It's a party. We should stop chatting and celebrate like the birthday it is. Feel the music and dance.
Peyton: Yea. But don't do too much. For the baby.
PJ: Of course.
[Peyton joins Katherine and her daughter and PJ goes to find Dane.]
Dane: Hey honey. Missed you.
PJ: Me too.
[Then all a sudden. Slow dance music begins to play. The both of them smile at each other. And does a curious wink at him.]
PJ (cont'd): Did you have anything to do with this?
[Dane smirks.]
Dane: Let's just wing it. It's your birthday. And I'm here with you. Let's dance.
PJ: Alright.
[PJ and Dane get close to together and begin to slow dance to the music that is being played. The others whom are also on the dance floor follow along also.]

MELINDA'S AND FELICIA'S NEW HOUSE. THE BACKYARD. NIGHT
[PJ is outside with Dane.]
PJ: The party was popping. Dane. So why bring me out to the back, privately.
Dane: I have something to reveal. PJ.
PJ: Is it another one of your past after you again?
Dane: No. It's not that. I think we have a chance at royalty again.
PJ: No. The only way. It's back. Right? From what I learned, the essence always finds someone.
Dane: No. It's not that drastic. We don't have to give in to our darkness this time. But your guess about something in my past is right? But nothing with vengeance.
PJ: Then what is it?
Dane: It turns out my mortal mother comes from royalty. From some country known as Eclary. It's like a small little province in Europe somewhere.
PJ: And you're next in line. Something like that?
Dane: Yes. It seems whoever keeps taking over is not doing right to the country, according my Great Aunt.
PJ: Now you have a Great Aunt? My goodness. And wow.
Dane: My Great Aunt is asking me to leave soon to get settled. But I can't leave you. You know. By yourself. With your condition. And it is not wise to travel at this stage of pregnancy.
PJ: I don't care. Coming with you. There's another option. We can beam.
Dane: Look. I don't know if that side knows about the magical world. And if you beam, it's going to be hard explaining why a woman in your condition is traveling through plane.
PJ: I understand. But don't worry about me. I'll be alright. You do what you need to do. After all, this is fate. We're meant for royalty.
Dane: That's what I thought.
PJ: So. Let's head back then. I want to dance some more. And the baby likes some movement.
Dane: Does he or she really like some movement?
PJ: I felt some kicks. So yes.
Dane: Whatever you say. Babe. Let's head back.
[PJ and Dane head back inside.]

MELINDA'S AND FELICIA'S HOUSE. SECOND FLOOR HALLWAY. NIGHT
[Wanda has just gotten out of the bathroom and bumps into Sylvia whom is walking towards her direction. She is shocked and recognizes her.]
Wanda: You?!
Sylvia: Ah. You're the waitress that other time.
Wanda: What the heck are you doing here?
Sylvia: I live with them now? We made up.
Wanda: That's lies. If I remember correctly. You tried to break them up. And then I heard that you were trying to force the both of them to marry you.
Sylvia: Yes. I was close. But of course. Their family were persistent.
Wanda: I think you should leave.
Sylvia: I don't think so. Think you're also my type. How about I prove to you that I live here. And have fun in my room.
Wanda: Heck no. Not interested. Even if I was. Into women. It wouldn't be you.
Sylvia: Oh really?
Wanda: You're a wicked woman who messes with people's lives with no care. No man or woman in their right mind would want to be with you.
Sylvia: Your boss' wife was. Till things changed between us.
Wanda: And that was your fault. You lost your chance. So don't try with me.
[Sylvia smirks.]
Sylvia: I love a challenging woman.
Wanda: I'm heading back to the main party if you would kindly just stepped out of the way.
Sylvia: You bumped into me. Waitress.
Wanda: Stop with the games. I'm really going.
[Wanda just forcefully pushes Sylvia to the side and walks forward. Sylvia then SHIMMERS over in front of her, shocking Wanda.]
Wanda: What the hell?!
Sylvia: Exactly. I'm hell and you're my heaven.
[Wanda now seems annoyed.]
Wanda: If that was you trying to flirt, it was super corny and did not work.
[Samantha then runs in seeing Wanda first. And goes over to her not noticing Sylvia.]
Samantha: There you are? Boss is wondering about you. And Graham was worried too?
Wanda: Sorry. I bumped into this bitch.
Sylvia: Helloooo. I'm right here.
[Samantha then finally notices Sylvia.]
Samantha: I see. I remember her from back then. Now let's go. We know she's bad company.
And still here. Enough with the insults.
Wanda: You had it coming.
Sylvia: Fine. Go. I'll just be in my bed.
Wanda: Whatever you say. Liar.
[Sylvia then grumbles and walks away. Samantha glances her eyes over back at Wanda.]
Samantha: What do you mean by liar?
Wanda: I'll tell you later. After. Or tomorrow.
Samantha: Okay. Back to the party.
[The two then head out in the opposite direction from where Sylvia left and continue down the hallway to head downstairs back to the main floor.]

TOP OF GOLDEN GATE BRIDGE. DAY
[Chris is with Jacob and Helena on the top of it.]
Jacob: Fortunately things have calmed down now.
Helena: Unfortunately we suffered a bit of lost with whitelighters and some good witches.
Chris: Those princesses of evil are really a threat right now. Sending darklighters out to cause havoc.
Jacob: We talked with the others. Helena and I think these princesses were probably manipulated just like those good witches. We all believe that Wargarias probably was involved.
Helena: Lately. From our sources, say he wants revenge on the Chosen Ones for his failure.
Chris: But they aren't punishing us. Really.
Jacob: Not directly. But indirectly. Most of you are focused on your real lives. It's hard to keep up and protect all those witches, innocents, whitelighters, and whitelighter-witches as you can.
Helena: Even us. Us Elders were unable to watch over to make sure our guides were protected along with their charges.
Chris: That's unfortunate. And we still haven't figured whom the princesses of evil are either.
Jacob: All I heard from sources. It is that they only appeared disguised and never their true faces.
Chris: I see. Jacob.
Jacob: And also. Chris.
Chris: Yes. Jacob.
Jacob: So what is going with Melinda? You know. Chris. Even since after the honeymoon, she's been ignoring our calls and more focused on the real life. Her work.
Chris: Halliwell's is doing well now and super busy. Maybe Melinda doesn't trust anyone.
Jacob: Melinda has Felicia. Doesn't she? No excuse.
Helena: Exactly. What Jacob said.
Chris: Alright. Jacob. Helena. As one of my duties as an Elder, I'll try to ask her.
Jacob: Thank you.
Helena: This is needed. With our lost. We need all at hand.
Chris: Agreed. Jacob. Helena. I'll check with Melinda. And you two keep me the update on any attacks of those species. I believe they are trying to exterminate all like us. To make sure evil spreads. And no guidance for new witches.
Jacob: That's what the others along with Helena and myself thought so.
Helena: Also. Today's a special day for your cousin. We'll reconvene about more things on this problem later.
Chris: Understood.

UNDERWORLD. UNKNOWN CAVE. DAY
[Wargarias is with Sylvia once more.]
Wargarias: Oh. Sylvia. Great job gaining that mortal, Wanda to our side. It be too suspicious for you to be there to deliver them the potions that keep Melinda's and Felicia's evil at bay.
Sylvia: I learned well from you. My Lord Wargarias. I was able to get into her weak points. And like all. They can't resist me.
Wargarias: Nope. Thanks to you. I have gained back more contracts as much as before.
Sylvia: There's no need for the thank. I would do anything for you. My Lord. You made me better.
Wargarias: Glad to hear that.
Sylvia: So what is my next task?
Wargarias: Keep with the seduction. Darling.
Sylvia: As you wish.
[Sylvia SHIMMERS out. Wargarias smirks.]
Wargarias: Looks I made the right decision turning this mortal into a demon. She's doing better than expected. And soon the rest of her humanity will be gone.

Brooks: Alright. Now everyone is here. And apologies for the early meeting. Now let's get started. Hiram. Please.
Hiram: Of course. Brooks. Our bounty. Those ones with the Power of Eight.
Harrison: They were supposed to be dealt with a while ago. But a lot of beings were after them.
Brooks: And of course. It was risky to go after that Angel. And believed that demon. Foolish decision.
[Brooks pauses a bit.]
Brooks (cont'd): The one who tasks us. Now he's giving us 48 hours to deal with them however. But keep the Twice-Blessed One, Wyatt Halliwell. Intact. He is captured status. Understood?
Griffin Witches: Understood.
Brooks: Now the teams. We'll split into two. One led by Hiram. And one Harrison. Team Alpha and Team Gamma.
Hiram: I'll be leading Team Alpha. As I am more of the experienced and more seasoned.
Harrison: And I guess that leaves me Team Gamma.
Brooks: So that's decided. Meeting adjourned. Mr. Greyling should have breakfast ready now prepared by his butler.

The city looks destroyed, swarmed by demons attacking. He is holding Excalibur in his hand. She walks over to him touching his arm.]
Princess of Evil: Become my dark soldier and protect this city. Twice-Blessed One.
Wyatt: I can't. Whoever you are. Already turned dark so much.
Princess of Evil: It's the only way to protect your wife and daughter. And another one.
[The Princess of Evil waves her hand to reveal a scene of Arika, looking pregnant, with a two year old now Jerri, fending off demons. Looking tired.]
Wyatt: No! Arika. Jerri. My future child.
Princess of Evil: You see that. Become my dark soldier. And you can protect them.
Wyatt: I...

Arika: What was what? It's Jerri crying again.

[Felicia then walks in the same outfit, with a half face mask also.]
Felicia: Hey. So you're here. I woke up and didn't see you. Love.
Melinda: I wanted to use the power that Wargarias gifted us. To dreamwalk and manipulate one to the dark side.
Felicia: Were you successful?
Melinda: No. There was an interruption of the dream. And I lost the chance.
Felicia: What a shame. You'll have other chances. Love.
Melinda: You're right.
Felicia: And now we got the Elders' attention.
Melinda: They are getting scared of the darklighters rising.
Felicia: As they should be. Those low-life demons. We had to go coy. Be more discreet with our targets.
Melinda: Yes. And now things will changed. So far now I called off our Darklighters for now.
Felicia: Yes. To prevent suspicion.
Melinda: And also not to create much chaos. We did what was needed.
Felicia: Yes. Got quite a bit of witches to the dark side now. And we are now their guides.
Melinda: Like the whitelighters to their charges.
Felicia: Yes. They are our charges now.
Melinda: And we can call them at will. Thanks to the power Wargarias gave us after we gave into our true selves.
Felicia: Yes. This freedom. I should have seduced you into the darkness before and not the other way before.
Melinda: I agree. Never felt so free. Than before.
Felicia: Yes. Feels great. Right. Love.
Melinda: Yes. It does. No stupid rules of personal gain. We can what we please.
Felicia: Come. Love. Time to head back to our new home.

Aquila: My darling goddaughter. I missed you so much. But yet I can't be with you. After I sacrificed myself, something dark took over me. I'll find a way to be back with you and Maya again. Don't you worry. Darling.
[Baby Lila is able to sense the dark aura radiating inside her and puts a force field up. Maya then walks in and is shocked to see Aquila.]
Maya: Aquila?!
[Aquila turns around after hearing Maya's voice and glances back at her with a saddened look before SHIMMERING out.]
Maya (cont'd): No. Don't go again.
[Maya kneels down, going in tears, in the same way the last time she saw Aquila. Lila puts down her orb shield. Edgar comes in hearing the tears and goes over to Maya's side.]
Edgar: Ms. Maya. What happened? Why are you crying?
Maya: Aquila. She came back. And just left. Why didn't....
[Edgar takes his arm to comfort Maya placing it on her shoulders.]
Edgar: It will be okay. Ms. Maya. Maybe she couldn't stay long. And just wanted to have a look at you.
Maya: Maybe. But still... It hurts seeing her back and then just...
Edgar: It will be fine. Ms. Maya. Things will be alright.
Maya: Thanks. Edgar. Anyway. I was going to come in and carry Lila. And then...
Edgar: Aquila arrived. I see. Well. Wipe up your tears. Don't let your daughter see you sad. And food will be ready soon.
Maya: Alright. Edgar.
[Edgar leaves the room. Maya goes over to the crib to carry Lila into her arms. She stares sweetly into her daughter's eyes.]
Maya (cont'd): You saw her too right? I bet you're confused too? Lila. And why she was near you. But you put an orb shield up?
[Lila just coos.]
Maya (cont'd): What am I doing? I'm talking to a baby. They probably don't understand most things.

STREET OUTSIDE PJ'S CONDO. DAY
[Harrison is there with five other Griffin Witches taking a glance at the place.]
Harrison: From what our boss has researched. PJ Halliwell seems to be alone most of time while her fiancé is mostly at work.
Griffin Witch #1: So let's strike now. Gamma Leader.
Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Griffin Witch #3: The streets are clear.
Griffin Witch #4: And there's not much people around.
Griffin Witch #5: Best to strike as soon as possible.
Harrison: It's too risky. You never know. The landlord could be around and hear noises.
Griffin Witch #1: We made noises before. Harrison. Remember.
Griffin Witch #2: And as always. We're always able to get away. Thanks to our generous partner.
Griffin Witch #3: Our creator.
Griffin Witch #4: It's six against one.
Griffin Witch #5: The odds are in our favor.
Harrison: Good point. But we can't just rush in. They are Warren Witches and know how to get the first move.
Griffin Witch #1: Maybe go in disguise. And then the rest of us can sneak in. From behind. As you distract her.
Harrison: That's a great idea. Going to need a disguise. We'll reconvene back later. Once I figure it out.
Griffin Witch #1: For now. We lay low. But still....
Harrison: Still what? Winston.
Winston/Griffin Witch #1: I think a few of us should stay and keep watch. In case of any visitors she gets.
Harrison: I see. Well. Winston. I guess you can stay. But only you. Don't to raise much suspicion.
Winston: Understood. Gamma Leader.
[Winston nods. Harrison looks over to the others.]
Harrison: As for your other boys. Join me.

Aquila: I do look devious. It's time to return what I was meant to be. Take back the coven.
[Her eyes glow with a blackish dark glow.]
Aquila (cont'd): But I need a good outfit. To make my mark on them.
[Aquila then goes over to her closet, which is filled with all different outfits in black. She moves between them and finds an outfit, of a classic style leather and tight pants, like the same outfit that Bianca, usually wore on her assassin missions.]
Aquila (cont'd): Yes. Perfect. Oh. Bianca. You couldn't finish what you started. I will now.
[The good side of Aquila fights through, gripping now the side of the slider door of closet.]
Aquila (cont'd): Nooo. They are my family now. I can't hurt Chris. Maya won't ever forgive me.

UNDERWORLD. DARK CORRIDORS. DAY
[Leila and Vera are walking around the underworld on a search for something.]
Leila: All morning. We been searching.
Vera: And none of them will say anything about the princesses of evil. Where they are. Who they are.
Leila: I can't believe we're back to being errand gals again. Like with that Angel before.
Vera: Leila. Remember we owe him. Would have no place to stay because of that Elder.
Leila: Yea. Still same situation. Remember. Ashliel gave us a place to stay too. I'm just afraid...
Vera: It won't be the same. Ashliel wanted to control us. Chris sees us as partners. Remember. Back then. An Elder is just a title nothing more.
Leila: Understood. Vera. Let's keep looking.
Vera: Yea.
[They continue to walk a bit more but eventually stumble unto Kayla whom is also patrolling the corridors of the underworld.]
Leila/ Vera: You!
Kayla: Yes. It's me. Hey girls. Long time no see.
Leila: Don't just ' hey'
Vera: You went on a killing spree and got rid of most of our sisters.
Kayla: That's the past. Girls. Let's not keep a grudge.
Leila: Not keep a grudge? Seriously?
Vera: You cost us our base.
Kayla: Why need that fancy place? With the nature of phoenix witches and their bounty, always moving around.
Leila: Good point. But still need a home to get back too.
Vera: And that place was our new home. And you....
Kayla: Whatever. Let's get to the real point. Why are you two girls here?
Leila: It's none of your business.
Vera: We don't have to answer to you.
Kayla: You know. I can make you two talk.
Leila: You can try.
Vera: But nothing will be revealed.
Kayla: We'll see about that.
[Kayla smirks. She raises her hand up and then uses Energy Magic to form a ring around Leila beginning to choke her.]
Kayla (cont'd): Changed your minds now? Girls.
Vera: Leila!
Leila (struggling): You kno... w wha... t to d.. Faced some...
[Vera nods and shoots an energy ball. And it causes Leila to explode into dust seemingly. The energy ring goes away and Kayla is in shock.]
Kayla: Noo!
[Leila then appears resurrecting back behind Kayla and uses her power to strip Kayla as she screams in pain.]
Leila: Yes. Time to feel powerless now.
Kayla: Grr. You'll pay for this.
[Leila finishes the stripping and Kayla falls to her knees.]
Vera: Let's take example from Maya and Aquila. And capture her to question.
Leila: Great idea.
Kayla: That's if you catch me. I may be powerless but I learned how to escape pretty quickly.
[Kayla rushes off.]
Leila: You're getting away from us that easily.
Vera: Yea.
[Leila and Vera then rush after her.]

THE BAY MIRROR. EDITOR-OF-CHIEF'S OFFICE. DAY
[Gwen is with Ashley Phillips, her assistant back when she was in Chicago, running the branch there.]
Gwen: Oh my god. What a surprise.
Ashley: I do miss you. As my boss.
Gwen: I'm still your boss still despite being here. Being in charge of The Bay Mirror.
Ashley: Good point. So how with the current assistant? I guess assistants. Know you went through a lot.
Gwen: No one is able to suit me like you do. Why don't you come here and join me again.
Ashley: Oh I wish. But still got family still back home. You do too.
Gwen: I know. But San Francisco called to me. The Bay Mirror did. It was thanks to you.
Ashley: That's why I'm your best assistant.
Gwen: Then come on. Join me again.
Ashley: Wish I could. But needed. I have to guide the one you chose to take after you left Chicago.
Gwen: Thanks for that. Ashley.
Ashley: No problem. I do what I can. As the best assistant. Making your branches survive. No matter what.
Gwen: And the others are doing well too.
Ashley: Yes. Of course. Ms. Daniels. I try to travel at least once and twice there.
Gwen: Thank you. To catch up. How about lunch later? I'll introduce you to my girlfriend.
Ashley: Girlfriend? You... I didn't....
Gwen: I had no idea either. But love is love.
Ashley: I'm glad you found someone whom has made you happy.
Gwen: Yea it was. There were struggles. But we fought hard.
Ashley: That's great. As for the offer on lunch. Sorry I can't. Maybe dinner. Got some things to take care of. For Simon. He was unable to attend due to a family emergency. So I'm in his place. So how about dinner?
Gwen: Sure. I'll give you the details on the restaurant when time comes.
Ashley: Sounds good to me.
Gwen: I'll escort you out. Ashley.
Ashley: It's fine. Will see myself out. You've been a busy woman now.
Gwen: But I want to. Please.
Ashley: You did say 'Please'. Okay then.
[The two get out of their seats. Gwen then escorts Ashley out through the door and stumbles into Coop.]
Gwen/Ashley: Mr. Halliwell.
Coop: Wow. Phillips. It's been a while since seeing you.
Ashley: If you're here, must be pending business. Guess I will walk myself out. Dinner later.
Gwen: Yea.
[Ashley walks out. Gwen's eyes then peers over to Coop.]
Gwen (cont'd): Don't just stand there. Come on in. We can sit and chat.
Coop: That would sound nice.
[Coop closes the door and enters inside. Gwen heads back to her desk and seat.]
Gwen: Please sit down. Also.
Coop: Thank you.
[Coop takes a seat in front of Gwen.]
Gwen: So what's up? You didn't come here to just check on up on me. Co-owner.
[Gwen winks at him.]
Coop: No. For remembrance. It's been a while after I was here to take over for a bit and since I left you in charge.
Gwen: You tried to visit this place often. Right? And just seeing it again. Brings back memories.
Coop: But I really proud of what you done to this place. You kept the aspect of what it was. Intact.
Gwen: Phoebe was my idol. When I started reading her articles when my family was in San Francisco when I was a young kid. And I knew it.
Coop: I see. That's great to hear. You know. I always wanted to ask...
Gwen: I know. Maybe Wyatt wanted to go for The Bay Mirror.
Coop: Yes.
Gwen: I tried. But Wyatt is adamant. Want his own thing.
Coop: I understand. Really wished it stayed in the family. But none of have an interest for it. And Chris has his own basically empire now.
Gwen: Out all the partners that Vincent Morgan had. He picked Chris.
Coop: I know. But it's good for him. Chris was always being worried being under Wyatt's shadow. Having him have this is not bad.
Gwen: Yea I guess. So I know you been busy with charges. Without Phoebe, you just need something to do.
Coop: Yea. The Head Cupid tried to make a deal to be full cupid but I couldn't. I can't let my daughters forget me. Or myself too. After all. Phoebe and I raised them well together.
Gwen: I understand. So what brings you back? Besides you know just taking a good look at The Bay Mirror again.
Coop: I had to come back to PJ's birthday party.
Gwen: Right. Wyatt and I are good friend me. He has invited me. But got pending plans already. Amaria has a charity fundraiser tonight. So...
Coop: No worries. Good catching up. But I must go to see my family before the party.
Gwen: No worries. I got things to do also. The next issue needs some major editing and review.
Coop: Keep up the good work. Ms. Daniels.
Gwen: Keep surviving. Mr. Halliwell.
[Coop grins and heads out of the door. Gwen returns to her computer to do some editing.]

HALLIWELL/COOP MANOR. KITCHEN. DAY
[Peyton is seen with Katherine and Caitlin, cleaning some dishes and putting them away into the dry rack.]
Caitlin: Mom. And Mom. I can't wait for grandpa to arrive.
Peyton: The same. It's been a while.
Katherine: Months. I wonder if he aged.
Peyton: Katherine!
Katherine: What? Just joking. I know he's immortal.
Peyton: That's not funny. Maybe you don't know humor because of how long you been in the world.
[Katherine rolls her eyes at Peyton.]
Katherine: Love. How can you say that?
Peyton: Sorry. I didn't. It's just I wanted to rebuttal.
Katherine: Moms. Please don't fight. Remember. Happy day for Aunt PJ.
Peyton: Yea sorry.
Katherine: Sorry. Honey.
Caitlin: Good. I wonder what's taking grandpa so long.
Peyton: Well. Your grandpa wanted to stop by someplace first. He'll be here soon.
Caitlin: Also.
Peyton: Also. The party will be at P3. I told Kyle and he's fine.
Katherine: Are sure about this? From what you told me, P3 wasn't a good place for her. That's why she handed it over to Kyle even though you said Chris asked if PJ would change her mind.
Peyton: I'm hoping having the party at P3 will change her mind. P3 was meant to be in the family. My Aunt Piper started it and Aunt Prue and Aunt Phoebe contributed it.
Katherine: You know. PJ saw Kyle as family too. When I was working there, it was in good hands under him.
Peyton: I know. Kyle's great. But P3. Power of three. Our legacy.
Katherine: I understand. Peyton. But still. If things don't pan out. What's going to happen?
Peyton: Then it can't be helped. I at least want to try.
Katherine: I also heard that PJ may not stay long here. After the baby is born I assume. She will move away. It's my enhanced hearing. I spied. During the housewarming party. I got nosy and heard everything.
Peyton: What do you mean? Where is she going? No. Back to acting again somewhere else.
Katherine: No. It's something else. But as you said. They are going somewhere else.
Peyton: Where? Did you hear what the place is?
Katherine: A province called Eclary. Never heard of it. Must be a small area.
Peyton: I see. She can't just...
Katherine: I didn't get the whole story of it. Wasn't paying attention. Just bits and pieces. Maybe PJ will tell you eventually.
Peyton: She better. Anyway. Dad should be here soon.
[Coop comes in through the kitchen.]
Coop: Hey.
Caitlin: Grandpa!
[Caitlin rushes over to hug her grandpa.]
Coop: Hey. Darling. How's my favorite granddaughter doing?
Caitlin: Grandpa. You're so silly. I'm your only granddaughter. Of course I'm your favorite.
Coop: You're so smart. Just like your mothers.
Katherine: Hey. Mr. Halliwell. Welcome back.
Peyton: Yea. Dad. Welcome back.
Coop: Thanks for the welcome. I can't wait for the party. Where is it?
Peyton: I booked P3.
Coop: What?! You know how PJ feels about that place.
Peyton: Katherine already reprimanded me about it. Just give me this okay. Dad.
Coop: Alright. But you know how P3 was to PJ. That's why she gave it up despite Chris, becoming head temporarily, gave her a choice to take it.
Peyton: I know it might bring back bad memories. Because of what happened. And was partly the reason mom died. And PJ thinks it was her fault.
Coop: We all know it wasn't. PJ was manipulated.
Peyton: And mom knew too. But she just had to.
Coop: PJ was a darling ladybug. You know how your mother is. She had to despite risking her life.
Peyton: Let's not keep on this. And be happy. As my daughter has said. It's happy day. PJ's birthday.
Coop: It's so nice to my girls again. After a good period of time. All together.
Peyton: We really miss you. Dad.
Coop: I know. But without Phoebe. Your mother. I just can't be here. Everything here reminds me of her.
Peyton: I understand. Dad.
Katherine: Anyway. Coop. I mean. Mr. Halliwell. Since you're her now, why not take your granddaughter out to the part and something.
Peyton: Katherine and I want to head to P3 to make sure things will be set for the party.
Coop: I don't mind. Sure.
Caitlin: That's great. Grandpa. Let me get changed. And I'll meet you out.
[Caitlin then super speeds in a pink blur.]
Peyton: That girl. I told her to be careful using her powers.
Katherine: She's like you. I remember the stories you told me. Were a bit of a rebel.
Peyton: Yes. But it was my downfall. I don't my daughter. I guess our daughter to go the same path I had to.
Coop: You girls. Go. If you want everything perfect for PJ's party.
Peyton: Alright. Will you be fine? What if you lose her in the park?
Coop: I won't. Don't' worry. Good at finding people. Remember.
Peyton: That's right. Alright.
Katherine: Let's go. Babe.
Peyton: Yea.
[Peyton and Katherine head out. Caitlin returns with clothing for the outside.]
Caitlin: I'm ready. Grandpa.
Coop: Alright. Caitlin.

PJ'S CONDO. FRONT DOOR AREA/ LIVING ROOM. DAY
PJ: Who would pay a visit for me this morning? Or maybe a birthday surprise. Hmm.
[She then goes to the door and looks through the eyehole and sees her landlord, David Grant.]
PJ (cont'd): This is a weird surprise. I know I been keeping on the payments. Wonder what brings him here today.
[PJ then goes to open to door, to reveal a tall man with dark brown eyes, in a suit.]
David: Hello. Miss Halliwell.
PJ: Hi. Mr. Grant. This is a strange surprise.
David: I heard what happened in the news. About the kidnappings. And wanted to check on you. And of course the baby.
PJ: As you can see. I am fine. Mr. Grant.
David: Looks to be. And where is your wonderful husband?
PJ: Working as usual. Someone has to put in the work to have enough for the baby. Since I am indisposed right now.
David: I see. Saw your movie. And it was amazing.
PJ: Thank you. Mr. Grant. And I know you didn't just come to check on me. What's going on?
David: I heard rumors of you possibly moving away. So I just need to get a heads up on the leave date. So I can find someone to give this condo to.
PJ: I see. I don't know how you heard it. But no one knows. This is....
[David smirks.]
David: You got me. Witch.
[He then reaches his hand making a portal when a peach colored energy shield appears in front of PJ's belly deflecting the attack knocking him back against hitting the door. PJ is shocked.]
PJ (to her belly): Good baby.
PJ (to fake David): Let's see who you really are.
[PJ sends a stream of ice leaving his head intact. She then BEAMS over the fake David.]
PJ (cont'd): Now reveal who you are or else.
[The Fake David scoffs.]
Fake David: Not likely. Just let me freeze to death. I rather suffer that fate than reveal to you witchy bitch.
[PJ rolls her eyes angrily at the Fake David.]
PJ: Why you!
Fake David: Do it. Finish me off. Witch.
PJ: I would. But need to get information before finishing you off.
Fake David: As I said. Not saying. Anyth... ooh. Feeling the chills.
PJ: Fine. Do it the hard way. I'll test this new power that I have recently developed.
Fake David: No power will make me talk.
[PJ smirks.]
PJ: You'll see.
Fake David: It will be quite a sho... ooh. Chilling.
[Fake David's appearance to turn pale and blue. It seems he is about to die from hypothermia. PJ readies her voice and begins to use Voice Manipulation Command!]
PJ: Tell me! Who you are!
[The power works as Fake David's head moves a little bit despite being almost at near death to the ice.]
Fake David: My name is Harrison and was sent to get rid of you. The Chosen Ones. I was waiting for the right moment and then my men would have came in. But whatever that burst was unexpected.
[Fake David/Harrison now suffers from hypothermia. His eyes wide at death's time. Due him dying, his power of glamouring is lost and the true self is revealed back to normal.]
PJ: Well that's unfortunate. I can't let you be gone that easily of that attempt on my life. And my information from you. They say cupid's tears can heal anything.
[PJ then moves closer to the frozen dead Harrison and thinks back to a time when she was forced to kill Phoebe. Tears come pouring. It removes the ice from his body and he recovers from his hypothermia catching his breath. Quickly, she then pins Harrison against the door.]
PJ (cont'd): You owe me now. Harrison.
[He grumbles.]
Harrison: You should have just let me be. Now what you did for me is torture. Saving my life. I can't....
[PJ smirks.]
PJ: That's right. You can't target me anymore. Because you owe my life to me.
[Harrison looks distraught a bit. But then smirks.]
Harrison: You should have just let me die. Foolish witch. I can't go against you. But my other friends will.
[Harrison snaps his fingers. Winston appears WHIRLING in with the other four Griffin Witches surrounding her.]
Harrison (cont'd): It's your task. Boys.
[He WHIRLS out. PJ widens her eyes in shock.]
Winston: You're surrounded. Witch. Meet your fate.
PJ: That's if you can catch me.
[PJ begins to BEAM out but Winston and the other Griffin Witches are too quick and WHIRL over, conjuring athames in each other their hands, in seconds, placing all of them near her neck.]
Winston: Sorry. Gal. I assume you met one of us before. You know we're just like those Phoenixes.
[PJ sighs heavily in discontent.]
PJ: Fine. Take me. But put those pointed things down. Or else you and others will face the wrath of my unborn baby. She or he was able to knock Harrsion out. And you five too.
Winston: You're bluffing.
PJ: You should ask your boss and find out.
Griffin Witch #1: Come on. It's a trap.
Griffin Witch #2: Remember. What boss said?
Griffin Witch #3: Only one is needed alive.
Griffin Witch #4: Come on. Winston.
Winston: I don't think so. Witch. We put our blades down. And you will try some tricks. Like escaping with that power of yours. Cupid-Witch.
PJ: Whatever you said. I'm just warning.
Winston: You're getting on my nerves. Let's kill her.
PJ: I guess this is my fate. Sorry. Baby.
[Winston smirks.]
Winston: Aw. So sweet. I could cry. Not! Let's do it. Boys.
[Winston and the other Griffin Witches prepare to stab PJ with their athames when in seconds, a shadowed figure appears in a quick second from under the couch, shooting shadowed blades stabbing them as they explode and disappear, like Phoenix Witches when they get destroyed the magical way. And the athames drop to the ground. The Shadowed Figure then reforms himself, revealing his physical form to be Hermes.]
PJ: Who are you? And I think I know. You're one of those who went after us and my cousins. And our allies.
Hermes: You remembered well. Cupid-Witch.
PJ: This is weird. Why? And what did you do to them?
Hermes: They'll reappear again. Still continuing their task. They are like Phoenix Witches. And will reform.
PJ: Are you being a messenger again?
Hermes: And also protector. You see. The princesses of evil. Well. One of them. Now sees the use of the Chosen Ones now. And does not wish any harm. The attacks before was only for Kalia and Artemis. It was you all who wanted to get involved. And...
[Hermes pauses a bit.]
Hermes (cont'd): We had to keep attacking.
PJ: I see. But still trust you. Especially when you won't tell whom your bosses are.
Hermes: Of course not. It's not time yet. My princesses will reveal themselves when the time is right.
PJ: Whatever. This has turned into a horrible birthday.
[Hermes smirks.]
Hermes: Oh. It's your birthday. I had no idea. Thought your upsetness was doing to what I heard are mood swings due to the pregnancy.
PJ: Shut up. And get out of my home.
Hermes: Oh my goodness. No thank you for saving your life. Or anything.
PJ: I could have handled it. My baby would have protected me.
Hermes: Then why didn't it. Again. When those Griffin Witches surrounded you all.
PJ: I... Guess. My baby is unpredictable. Like how my cousin was in the womb.
Hermes: Possibly. Also. I'll be keeping an eye on you. And my other friends. Too. Hide in the shadows we are.
PJ: We don't need any protection. From either of you. And especially you.
Hermes: Oh yea. If it wasn't for me, you would have been taken by those Griffin Witches. Or even worse. You died along with your unborn baby. And that's an unfortunate fate.
PJ: Why do you care?
Hermes: I don't. But we all serve our princesses. And what they say. Go. And they want you all protected. Despite our methods last time. It was an order to make sure Kalia and Artemis didn't reveal anything to you all. It was a forced hand.
PJ: You beings are despicable. Forced hand. Seriously?
Hermes: It's the truth. And be careful. They'll come back. I suggest maybe head back home. At least you'll have more to protect you.
PJ: Excuse me. Hermes. I'm fine on my own.
Hermes: Again. Not what happened a while ago?
PJ: It was just a minor overlook. I will be keen next time.
Hermes: Whatever. Now I must go. Have to send other messages for my princesses.
[Hermes FADES out. PJ grimaces.]
PJ: Who are these princesses of evil? First they send their lackeys after us. And they send them to protect us. Something is up.
[PJ feels a baby bump.]
PJ (cont'd): Oof. Sorry. Baby. About stressing you out.
[PJ then pauses a bit thinking about what Hermes said.]
PJ (cont'd): Hermes has a point. They will come back. At least back my old home. There is protection. But I had it here too. It must be their alliance. Like the Phoenix Witches. Maybe I'm safer at Magic School.
[PJ then BEAMS out.]

OLD ABANDONED PHOENIX WITCHES' LAIR. DAY
[It is not what it looks like before. About four to five years ago. Just a decrepit old house in shambles.]
[CUT TO]
OLD ABANDONED PHOENIX WITCHES' LAIR. BASEMENT. DAY
[Chris is seen a little beaten up and weakened chained to his chair. Aquila is there in his black all leather Phoenix Witch Outfit just like Bianca used to wear. She smirks.]
Aquila: Oh powerful Elder. How's it feel to be powerless now?
Chris: Aquila. I know the good of you is still in there. Fight it.
Aquila: There was never good in me. Chris. It was a ploy. One day I will get Lila and raise her as my own. And rebuild the coven again. And also finish what Bianca was meant to do. Killing you.
Chris: Please. Aquila. I know it's not true. Maya told me you came to Lila and didn't want to take her. It means the good side was there.
Aquila: It's gone now. And I'll make sure it never comes back. It's time for me to return to my reign. As the leader of the coven again. And killing you. Is the perfect initiation. Boy.
Chris: Look at me. Aquila. Remember our days together. With Maya. Us. Edgar.
Aquila: Nice try. Elder. But that won't work. The Aquila you knew is gone.
[Aquila walks over closer to Chris grazing his face with her right hand and the left hand ready with an energy ball in hand.]
Aquila (cont'd): Any last words? Elder.
[Chris scoffs.]
Chris: Once you come to your senses, you'll regret it. Aquila.
Aquila: I don't think so. It's time to finish what Bianca started. When someone can't do thing right, I have to do it myself.
[She smirks. The tint of the color of the energy ball can be seen in a reflection of his eyes before he closes it, now about accept this unfortunate deathly fate. From the side, a fire ball is shot out from someone unseen hitting Aquila's arm, burning it.]
Aquila (cont'd): Aah! What the hell!
[This fortunately causes Aquila to move her arm which sends the energy ball off to the wall. Kalia then reveals herself in the open a bit from a good distance from Aquila.]
Kalia: I got more coming from that lady.
[Kalia then creates two fire balls in her hands. Aquila turns around sees her, biting her lip, in anger.]
Aquila: So do I. Girl. You'll pay for burning me.
[Aquila then also summons two energy balls in her hand too. They both shoot it. Their attacks clash in the air making an explosion. They both stand still standing their ground from the impact from the blast that could have knocked them both back.]
Kalia: Nice on. But this isn't over.
Aquila: Let's keep fighting. We'll see who wins the end. And it will be me.
Kalia: Unlikely. I came from a father who was meant to be the right hand of the Source of All Evil. And you're just a Phoenix Witch. A lackey bounty hunter that only does tasks for money.
[Aquila quickly SHIMMERS over to where Kalia is and instantly summoning an Athame in her hand, and puts it against her neck.]
Aquila: Oh darling. I don't like when people mock me. You'll be coming with me today.
[Aquila then SHIMMERS out with Kalia before she is able to react to orb out and screams out, "Chris", before taken.]
Chris: Kalia! Nooo! I have to get out of here!
[Chris tries to wiggle out of his chairs but it's too tight.
Footsteps are heard with his face giving hope.]
Chris (cont'd): Thank goodness. Someone else figured out where I am.
[It is Maya who comes down to the steps with Lila, in her arms. Chris looks overjoyed.]
Maya: Honey.
Chris: Maya dear. And Lila?! What is she doing here too? It's a dangerous place.
Maya: I was forced to take her with me. And really thought she would be a good help. She helped orbed me out to safety before.
Chris: Alright. Give a try. Still. It was risky bringing her here.
Maya: I know. Chris. Let's let Lila do her trick.
[Maya then moves closer to Chris.]
Maya (cont'd): Come on. Lila. Wave your hands and get Daddy out of those chains. Like you helped mommy that time.
Lila: Goo gah.
[Lila waves her hands and the chains are ORBED away releasing Chris form the chair.]
Chris: Alright. We have to go help Kalia. Aquila could do the same to her what she did to me.
[Chris tries to move but is too weak and falls off balance but it's caught by the chair.]
Maya: Chris. Don't. We must take you home now. I think Kalia can handle herself. That's why the Elders tasked as you and your sibling's whitelighter for a reason.
Chris: You're right. Time to head back home. And also let Archibald know what happened.
Maya: I already did. Archibald sensed something was weird when you never came back from the recent meeting you finished.
Chris: I see. Now let's go. Before she comes back.
Maya: Sounds good. I don't know what's going on. I thought Aquila changed.
Chris: I think something took over her. Made Aquila the worst version of herself. When she sacrificed herself to deal with her sister. But I promise you. She will come back to her senses.
Maya: I hope so.
Chris: Alright. Come on. I think I need... Woo wee. Rest.
[Chris nearly falls again but catches himself.]
Maya: Alright. Chris. Really time to go.
[Maya cuddles around Chris enough to touch closely to his body and SHIMMERS out with him along with holding Lila.]
[CUT TO]
MAGIC SCHOOL. THE LIBRARY. DAY
[PJ is on the table with stacks of books that has Griffins on the subject but nothing on the Griffin Witches.]
PJ: Man. I got nothing. Or how to defend themselves from those things. The Griffin Witches. Maybe the Book of Shadows could have something.
[Then in a flash of light. A thick black book lands in front of PJ, and starts flipping through the pages, and lands on a page about Griffin Witches.]
PJ (cont'd): My god. What the heck. Who...
[PJ then moves her head back and forth and all around to figure who sent the book to who but sees no one. She then begins to read it.]
PJ (reading):
GRIFFINS
The Griffins are a group of male assassin witches, the counterpart to the Phoenix Witches. They were created from a demonic man scorned by a Phoenix Witch whom he fell in love and she betrayed him. He had figured out some dark magic and kidnapped a Phoenix Witch, while on her mission, and also killing her to get her blood. And with the blood, he used dark magic fused with griffin blood along with his own blood to create the first Griffin Assassin Witch, with the same ferocity and vengeance that he held.
PJ (cont'd): Very interesting. If they are the counterpart, it mean they could be vanquished the same way. And can resurrect. Like Phoenix Witches. Let's see what else I can find on them.
[PJ then flips through the next page and notices the name, Wargarias on the page.]
PJ (cont'd):
It's not what I was looking for. But...
[PJ looks to be about to read a passage on him when she hears a familiar voice.]
Dane (o/s): PJ!
[Dane now rushes in, with his business suit still on. He then stands next to her.]
PJ: Dane.
Dane: I was so worried not seeing you home. And I smelt something off.
PJ: Yea. I got attacked by some Griffin Witches.
Dane: Oh my. Them?
PJ: After that, somehow I had an ally saved me. And our baby. It seems she or he has power in womb. And thought it was safer to be at Magic School for now.
Dane: I see. This place is safe. Evil can't get it. I came to my father-in-law place to get through the secret opening. And found no one was there.
PJ: They are probably out. Probably planning something for my birthday. I told them didn't want anything big. Or even a party.
Dane: Come on. PJ. You're turning twenty-eight.
[PJ grimaces.]
PJ: It's just another year getting older.
Dane (grinning): And wiser.
PJ: Whatever you said. But anyway. Something came to me here.
Dane: What? My darling wife.
PJ: Come pull up a chair and look at this.
Dane: Okay.
[Dane grabs a chair and sits next to PJ where he can get a good view of the page in the book for Wargarias.]
Dane (con'td): They got his image pretty accurate.
PJ: Yea. I know. Let's see. Maybe we can find his weakness.
Dane: Then let's read.
[They both begin reading.]
PJ/Dane (reading):
WARGARIAS
An upper level demon whom is a master manipulator. He was disciple under Zahn and has been around in the underworld for centuries. Learning everything he knows from his mentor. This demon loves the power of control, and with his deals, makes contracts where any of his client's souls belong to him. Where if something goes wrong, he is able to control do what he wants. And through his contracts, has gained powers over the centuries.
His most proud soul, was from a demonic soldier that rivals Balthazor, this demon of Power and Vengeance. But love is a powerful magic, and this soldier fell to the weakness of love.
History reveals not much about him. Wargarias lies to stay in hiding unless he has an ulterior motive for his evil goals. Even vanquishing him, is unknown. One would think the Power of Three could be the key. Or something more powerful that can get rid of this truly immortal demon.
PJ/Dane: Wow!
PJ: So Wargarias is that discreet.
Dane: Yea. From what I heard. And I think I remember of stories species of like Balthazor. Powerful demonic soldiers and such.
PJ: Like you. And your father.
Dane: Not like me. At all. Or my father. But I seen one. And they are heartless. I doubt they can fall prey to love.
PJ: Well. Balthazor did. So what stopped whatever was said in this book?
[The Book now vanishes in plain sight.]
Dane: So the book is gone now.
[PJ then looks back at the table.]
PJ: No way. I guess it was time. Only wanted to reveal to us the information needed.
Dane: I know it's safe here. But let's head back home. Or maybe see your dad. He should be back by now.
PJ: Right. Gives me a chance to hang with my niece more too.
Dane: Yea. Come on.
[PJ and Dane head out of the library.]

SOUTH BAY SOCIAL SERVICES. TAMORA'S OFFICE. DAY
[Tamora is on the phone with Wyatt.]
Tamora (on phone): My goodness. If Aunt Prue hadn't appeared, my employees would have lost their lives.
Wyatt (on phone): I don't know what's going on? But why are these Griffin Witches targeting us.
Tamora (on phone): It's obvious. Wyatt. Our family is considered a threat to the whole underworld. Someone probably hired them.
Wyatt (on phone): But mines didn't want to kill me. It's like... They wanted me for something.
Tamora (on phone): And what did you do?
Wyatt (on phone): I had to fend them off. But you know. They are basically like Phoenix Witches. Keep resurrecting and very agile to allow their heads to be chopped by my sword.
Tamora (on phone): And I assume you tired out. And almost got captured. Right?
Wyatt (on phone): Yea. But a cloaked figure just stared at them with its eyes. And they just vanished. And was saved from the fate.
Tamora (on phone): Could it be another whitelighter protecting you? Like how Aunt Prue was when she couldn't reveal herself to Tamora and me.
Wyatt (on phone): No. It wasn't that. My sensing powers have advanced since then. There was some darkness in this person. And then he said....
Tamora (on phone): Said what?
Wyatt (on phone): We'll meet again. Twice-Blessed One.
Tamora (on phone): I guess even the darker side of the magical community knows of your status.
Wyatt (on phone): I guess so. Why did I have to be the one with this title?
Tamora (on phone): Sometimes things happen for a reason. Wyatt. With no explanation.
Wyatt (on phone): I guess so. Anyway. Have to get back to work. Finish some things before PJ's party.
Tamora (on phone): Oh yes. I'm finishing up on my side too. After Prue did some memory wipe, I sent most of them home for safety.
Wyatt (on phone): I lucked out. They only attack me in my office.
Tamora (on phone): Luckily. But also. Besides Aunt Prue. Someone came too.
Wyatt (on phone): Whom?
Tamora (on phone): One of those Shadow Demons who came after Kalia and Artemis the other time. Said something along the lines of it was a forced hand. And they had to attack us.
Wyatt (on phone): That's such a sorry excuse. And what else?
Tamora (on phone): The princesses of evil have changed their minds. Wanted us safe.
Wyatt (on phone): And yet they sent those darklighters to wreak havoc and defer witches and whitelighter-witches to the evil side by getting rid of their whitelighters.
Tamora (on phone): Yea I know. You can never trust evil. Didn't paid mine to it.
Wyatt (on phone): Anyway. It seems Aquila appeared.
Tamora (on phone): Really?
Wyatt (on phone): It seems she's back to her our self. Chris was almost killed if Kalia hadn't gotten to him in time.
Tamora (on phone): Wow. I guess that's why your mom. Aunt Piper. Never trusted Phoenix Witches.
Wyatt (on phone): Anyway. Let's move from this. We both got to get back to our work.
Tamora (on phone): Yea.
[Tamora hangs the phone on her end. She returns to her computer to do work.]

UNDERWORLD. SOME CAVE. DAY
[The cloaked figure is there with Brooks. He slaps him hard on the face.]
Cloaked Figure: Idiot. I thought you Griffins were the best of the best.
Brooks: The Shadow Demons got involved. Sir.
[The cloaked figure then takes off his cloak, reveal to be Gideon, in dark colored robes.]
Gideon: They are considered the lowest of lowest. And yet they were able to outsmart you Griffin Witches. And you even failed to get me what I want. The Twice-Blessed One.
Brooks: Sorry. Sir. We won't fail next time.
Gideon: You better not. Now go back to your coven. And leave me be.
Brooks: Yes. Sir.
[Brooks WHIRLS out.]
Gideon: I was close to my revenge. Hurt the ones of the Leo's progeny and the rest of whom he cares about. His nieces and nephews. Children. And then manipulate Wyatt to be by my side. And have him kill his own father. And hemercilessly killed me. You will pay. Leo Wyatt.
[CLOSE UP: ON HIS VENGEFUL EYES.]

HALLIWELL/COOP MANOR. LIVING ROOM. DAY
[Dane is running around with Caitlin holding her in the air like she is flying. PJ is on the couch with Coop, as she rubs her belly gently.]
Caitlin: Yea. I'm flying. Higher. Higher. Uncle Dane.
Dane: Of course. My favorite niece.
Caitlin: I'm your only niece.
[Dane just grins after hearing that comment and continues playing with Caitlin.]
PJ: Thanks for coming back. Dad. It means a lot.
Coop: Anything for you. My darling daughter.
PJ: And then after. You're back to focus on the charges again.
Coop: Yea. Look. I loved Phoebe. And can't love anyone else. This is the only way.
PJ: I understand. Dad.
[Caitlin is heard giggling in the background as the two talk.]
PJ: Is this the curse our family? We can't ever have a peaceful celebration. Some things just always happen.
Coop: I know. What happened before the wedding? And the past holiday celebrations. Over the years.
PJ: Yea. Werewolves. And others.
Coop: Sirens. During that day that was meant for the Wicanning.
PJ: Yea.
Coop: As least things are fine now.
PJ: It seems so. We'll see what tomorrow brings for our family. Those Griffin Witches have retreated for now. But they'll back as the messenger had said, Hermes.
Coop: I can't believe my daughter is turning twenty-eight. In about two years, you'll be reaching the 3-0.
PJ: Don't even give me thoughts about it. So... I assume a big party is planned. Even though I said...
Coop: Of course. After what's been going on, you deserve a good party.
PJ: Yea. I guess. Dad.
[Dane now puts Caitlin down back on the floor. She runs over to PJ.]
Caitlin: Aunt PJ. That was so fun. You and Uncle Dane should come visit more. When I'm around on the weekend. No Magic School.
PJ: We'll try to. Caitlin.
Caitlin: Okay. And can I touch the belly. See if I can feel the kick of my future cousin.
PJ: Sure. Caitlin. Go ahead.
[Caitlin goes to feel the belly.]
Caitlin: Ooh. Feels weird.
PJ: I know.
Caitlin: I'm hungry now. Can we go out and eat? And stop by Aunt Melinda's place.
PJ: Sure. Why not.
Coop: Or we can stay here. And I can make something. See if I haven't lost my touch.
Caitlin: Are you sure? Grandpa.
Coop: Yea. Give us time to bond better. Since I'm going be here by end of tonight.
PJ: Sounds good to me. I do miss your cooking. Dad.
Dane: Same. Mr. Halliwell.
Caitlin: I do too.
Coop: Dane. Would you able to help? Need a sous Chef.
Dane: Sure. I don't mind.
Caitlin: Can I come help too?
Coop: It's okay. Stay with your Aunt to keep her company. Watch some television or something.
Caitlin: Okay. Grandpa.
[Coop and Dane head out of the room. Caitlin joins PJ on the couch.]
PJ: So what are you in the mood for?
Caitlin: I want to watch Spy Kids.
PJ: Okay. I'm sure we can find that on one of the streaming services.
[PJ turns on the tv to an unseen tv app and then puts on Spy Kids. Music is heard on the background starting the movie as the both of them start watching.]

MORGAN MANSION. BASEMENT. DAY
[Kayla is seen in a magical cage with Leila and Vera. Leila moves a crystal to shock her.]
Kayla: Aah!
Leila: Come on. Just give us the information. And we'll set you free.
Vera: And maybe possibly give you your powers back.
Kayla: You can torture all night and on and on. But I'm not saying anything. And also. Where did you take my sister?
Leila: To get her back to the light.
Vera: At least there's still good in her.
Kayla: It's because of that allowed to be give into her dark self when protecting me.
Leila: Aquila would always protect all of us.
Vera: That's how she is. You're her sister and you don't even appreciate it.
Kayla: What sister. Aquila never fought to keep me with her by her side with my parents.
Leila: That's what you said.
Vera: Why should we believe you?
Kayla: You can't. But do I look I'm lying?
Leila: No. But still.
Vera: We don't trust you. After what you did.
Kayla: It was orders. Come on. And the money.
Leila: Anyway. Vera. Keep watch. We'll take turns.
Vera: Sure. Leila.
Leila: Good. I wish there was a way to get into her inner workings. Pry into her mind. To find who the princesses of evil are.
Vera: Maybe we had some clients in the past.
Leila: That may have the sort of power.
Vera: Maybe. We can get the others to investigate on that.
Leila: Yea. For now. We just have to try and keep pressuring her to talk.
Vera: The only choice we have now. Alright. Go. Leila. I got this.
Leila: Don't let her manipulate you. She's known to do that.
Vera: I got it.
[Leila nods and heads back up the stairs. Vera glares over at Kayla.]
Vera (cont'd): Now it's just me and you.
[Kayla scoffs.]
Kayla (sarcastic): I'm so glad.

P3. EVENING
[PJ and Dane are in front of the entrance. She is wearing a lavender colored dress him a lavender suit to match. PJ is seen with a blindfold over her eyes.]
PJ: Why did it have to be a surprise? I can't know what the place is?
Dane: It was Peyton's idea. Thankfully you're very coordinated that I can guide you pretty easily.
PJ: Why thank you. Husband.
Dane: You're welcome. Let's go in. Everyone probably waiting inside.
PJ: Alright. Guide the way. Love.
Dane: Surely.
[PJ is led inside still with a blindfold by Dane.]
[CUT TO]
P3. MAIN AREA/DANCE FLOOR. EVENING
[It seems to be empty tables all around where the dance floor lays in the middle. There is slight darkness in the area. Dane is now in the area with a blindfolded PJ still.]
PJ: Can I open my eyes now? Dear.
Dane: Nope. You'll know when.
[The lights then flicker on revealing Piper, Leo, Coop, Paige, Wyatt, Chris, Melinda, Parker, Peyton, Tamora, Kat, and Junior, along with their loves, Arika, Maya, Felicia, Gabriel, Katherine, Enrique, Declan, and Angelie. Caitlin with close friend are there, including Kyle, along with Pam and Emily. Valentina is also there along with Kat's best friend, Gale all screaming "Surprise." PJ's eyes go wide in shock.]
PJ: Dane! You brought me here!
Dane: It was Peyton's idea. She thought this would you know want you to take over P3 again.
PJ: Well. Peyton. You are wrong. There will be no of that. Because Dane and I are possibly moving away.
Halliwell/Matthews Family: What?!
Wyatt: Really?!
Chris: This is a surprise.
Melinda: Yea. What brought upon this.
Tamora: This is.....
Kat: What are you thinking?
Junior: Is this that past PJ all over again?
Parker: I agree. Remember that rash decision of you selling P3 away to Morgan Tower.
PJ: It's not. I'll explain some time. But anyway. Since Peyton did hard work. And set up this party. I'll enjoy the moment. For now.
Peyton: Look. PJ. You can't just blurt out things like that. You ruined the mood. It was supposed to be your celebration. Now most of the emotions are all sorts now.
PJ: Well I can. It's my birthday. And can say whatever I want.
Peyton: Are you serious? PJ. I did this to make up for those troubles. I wanted today to be happy day for you.
PJ: Don't put it on me. Peyton. You chose this place. Had an ulterior motive. Look. Dane. Let's just celebrate my birthday somewhere else.
Dane: PJ. Let's not be rash about this. I know this place bring bad memories. Peyton worked on this. After all, P3 used to mean something to you.
PJ: It was never. Out of obligation. No one had the motivation to bring P3 back into the family. I chose that fate. And look where it's gotten me. I still haven't found myself despite having some success in the acting world.
Peyton: You don't mean that. PJ.
PJ: But I do.
Peyton: Come on. I worked for this. PJ. Don't be hard headed like mom was.
PJ: Don't you bring mom into this conversation. Peyton.
Peyton: Yes I can. She's my mom too. PJ. Now. Please enjoy your party.
PJ: You said I ruined the mood. How am I supposed to enjoy this party?
PJ (to Dane): Let's get out of here.
Dane: PJ....
PJ: Dane. Please...
Dane: No. PJ.
PJ: Did you just say "No" to me.
Dane: Yes I did. PJ. And you deserve it.
PJ: I do. Do I?
[Coop then walks over to PJ.]
Coop: I think I'll know what to do. And will be back quick.
PJ: What are you going to do? Dad.
[Coop smirks. He then forcefully uses his ring to BEAM out with PJ. Parker and Peyton then glance at each other.]
Parker: You know what's dad doing?
Peyton: I have an inkling.
[Maya then walks over to them.]
Maya: I know. Probably doing the same that was with Aquila. A vision journey of some sort. It helped her fight through the darkness. And I think it will help PJ fight through the bad parts she suffered from this club. And I think. I remember Chris mentioned. Had to deal with your Aunt Phoebe's death.
Chris: Yea. After that, Coop along with Parker and Peyton found her dead body delivered at the front step.
Peyton: So what now? We just wait for them.
Parker: I believe so.
Peyton: But everyone can enjoy the music and dance for now. Destress the situation.
Gabriel: Sounds good with me. Join me. My loving Parker.
[Gabriel takes Parker to the dance floor area. And the rest all follow.]

P3. MAIN AREA/DANCE FLOOR. LATE EVENING (LATER)
[On a table, PJ and Peyton are talking. Everyone else is enjoying the dance floor while others are eating the appetizers and drinking, except Caitlin whom is having a Shirley Temple.]
PJ: I'm sorry. Peyton. I was manipulated and turned dark, being lured to sell this place to that demon. And then in turn, mom, got involved unintentionally. And I just...
Peyton: I'm sorry. But P3 is a part of us. And you love running with it along Kyle and Pam and Emily, whom used to work there, before they moved to another city.
PJ: As I said. It's an obligation.
Peyton: I'm sure it was at first. You were always smiling. I think only reason was that demon, played with your mind.
PJ: That demon really messed with my mind. Dad took me on journey throughout my times at P3. Sure there were bad times but good ones too with Kyle, Pam, and Emily.
[PJ then takes a quick glance at the three and back at Peyton.]
Peyton: Did the journey change your mind?
PJ: I wavered a bit but as I revealed. I didn't mean to reveal it like that. You worked so hard planning this party for me.
Peyton: Yea. Could have waited.
PJ: I know. Sorry. Pey...
Peyton: It's alright. So you're moving. Huh?
PJ: Yea. Since it's just me and you, I'll just tell why.
[Peyton sighs heavily.]
Peyton: I already know. Katherine stumbled upon the conversation at the party with her super hearing.
PJ: I see. You know about where I'm going.
Peyton: Some province known as Eclary. Katherine didn't get much information besides that.
PJ: Yes. So it turns out my darling husband comes from royalty on his mortal mother's side. About a few days ago, his great aunt came to him. Explained everything. And at that party, he told me about it.
[Peyton's eyes goes wide in shock.]
Peyton: What is he? A duke or something.
PJ: Something. Anyway. But Dane has to leave soon. And he wanted to take me there. But as you see, in my condition. I can't.
Peyton: You know you could beam.
PJ: As far as he know, that family probably know anything of magic. Best to stay low key he says.
Peyton: But what if he doesn't come back in time when the baby comes.
PJ: Said he'll try his best to come back. If not, Dane will find a way to make it up.
Peyton: Yea I hope he does. Can't miss out. After all, it's the birth of his first child. I guess both of yours.
PJ: I know. But this is a great opportunity for him. To know the rest of his family more. You know Dane doesn't have that much family anymore besides his uncle and such. But he was never was close to them.
Peyton: You know. Could ask him to not go.
PJ: I can't. I don't want to miss this opportunity.
Peyton: If you said yes, and he might not be able to come back for the birth. That's just unfortunate.
PJ: It's a party. We should stop chatting and celebrate like the birthday it is. Feel the music and dance.
Peyton: Yea. But don't do too much. For the baby.
PJ: Of course.
[Peyton joins Katherine and her daughter and PJ goes to find Dane.]
Dane: Hey honey. Missed you.
PJ: Me too.
[Then all a sudden. Slow dance music begins to play. The both of them smile at each other. And does a curious wink at him.]
PJ (cont'd): Did you have anything to do with this?
[Dane smirks.]
Dane: Let's just wing it. It's your birthday. And I'm here with you. Let's dance.
PJ: Alright.
[PJ and Dane get close to together and begin to slow dance to the music that is being played. The others whom are also on the dance floor follow along also.]
