JACOBSON LAW FIRM. DANIEL'S OFFICE. DAY
[The door is closed as Dane walks in. Daniel is seen sitting on his desk.]
Daniel: Welcome. This is a surprise. You're always too busy with work. As am I.
Dane: I decided to take some leave to think things through.
Daniel: Please come sit down and talk. I know it seems like something serious.
Dane: Okay. Uncle Daniel.
[Dane takes a seat.]
Daniel: What's going on? Talk to me.
Dane: I don't know how.
Daniel: You're just like your father. Not knowing how to express emotions or feelings well. Till PJ came into your life.
Dane: Yes. Anyway. I wanted to ask. Did you know anything of my mom? I assume dad killed her. And such.
Daniel: Not much really. Just that your father saw her as someone to breed with and such. Like you used to do. Remember.
Dane: I know. And my past came back to haunt me.
Daniel: Ah. That's unfortunate.
Dane: Yea.
Daniel: So spit it out.
Dane: It turns out my mortal side of the family. My mother. Comes from royalty. I'm basically considered the next heir to a province known as Eclary.
Daniel: This is great news. Why do you seem saddened about it?
Dane: Because PJ is not fit to travel. And if I go there, and take on my responsibilities as the heir. Might not be able to return. For our child's birth.
Daniel: I see. But what does PJ think about it?
Dane: PJ understands and doesn't want this opportunity to go to waste.
Daniel: That's mighty kind of her. Shows she truly loves you.
Dane: I know. Just don't want to leave on her own and such. What if there, I get back to my old ways again? The power gets to me and I start manipulating woman again. And leave PJ with no husband and her baby without a father.
Daniel: It won't come to that. You changed a lot. And truly love her.
Dane: Thanks. Uncle Daniel.
Daniel: Maybe there's a way to postpone this heir stuff till the baby is born. And PJ can travel.
Dane: My Great Aunt says it's urgent. They don't trust my other relatives. It seems things keep ending up wrong.
Daniel: How do you know things won't turn wrong for you? Like those others.
Dane: You have a good point. Uncle.
Daniel: Thank you. Anyway. Maybe I can talk to her. I'm a lawyer and know how to convince people.
Dane: Okay. You can give it a try. But this lady is a stubborn woman as she said my mother was.
Daniel: I dealt with much like that. Come on, I'm an esteemed lawyer. Done this for centuries.
Dane: Alright. I'll put my trust in you. Will send you her number. As for now, I want to spend more time with my wife till I figure things out.
Daniel: And I got a meeting to prepare in about two hours. Later then.
Dane: Thanks for the talk. Uncle Daniel.
Daniel: No problem.
[Dane leaves the office. Daniel returns to his work on the desk.]

PJ: Dad. You don't have to do this.
Coop: Come on. It's the day after your birthday. And I want to do something special after what happened yesterday.
PJ: I know. But still. This is too much.
Coop: Well. If you think that is too much. I made fresh squeezed orange juice also. The jug is on the counter.
PJ: Dad...
Coop: Don't dad me. Start on the food. And then for the pancakes.
PJ: Okay. Dad.
[PJ begins to eat when Dane walks into the kitchen.]
Dane: Started already without me? Dear.

Dane: I see. Sorry.
Dane (to Coop): I assume you have a plate ready for me also?
Coop: Or course. I'll get it ready. Make sure you're here to get it fresh and things.
Dane: Alright. Can I help with anything?
Coop: Maybe get some cups and move the orange juice jug nearby the food.
Dane: Of course. Where are the cups? I don't know this house well.
Coop: Left far top cabinet.
Dane: Thanks.

PJ: So how was the talk with your uncle?
Dane: Decent.
PJ: Great.

Wyatt: You two?
Arika: I assume you two are the princesses of evil that all of us are looking for.
Melinda: Yes.
Felicia: Correct.
[Their voices are heard to be disguised.]
[Melinda then takes her mask off along with Felicia, revealing their identities to the two.]
Wyatt/Arika: No!
Melinda: Yes. It was me who tried to lure you. But was interrupted.
Felicia: And we were in charge of sending those darklighters so future witches can be lay prey to us. And we can guide them.
Wyatt: This is just a dream.
Arika: They can't be.
[Melinda and Felicia both smirk and then the dream fades as all disappear from the dream world.]

[Wyatt and Arika wake up in shock and the dark glow on their hands are not seen anymore.]
Wyatt: That was so real. Do you think what we saw was true?
Arika: It's a possibility. We haven't usually shared dreams.
Wyatt: Or it could be Wargarias' doing. Sending evil imposters like what happened to my cousin, Tamora.
Arika: Yea. You got a good point there. And those evil copies of PJ and Dane you told me about.
Wyatt: Yes. At least we know their identities. That means our Melinda and Felicia are stuck somewhere.
Arika: Yes. But let's rest a bit more. That dream was....
Wyatt: Yea.

Felicia: And with that. We'll become basically the Queens of Evil.

UPPER REGIONS. DAY
[Chris is with Helena].
Chris: I have tried. Helena. So sorry. But my sister. Just like her mother. Stubborn as hell.
Helena: Chris. Language. Remember. You're an Elder.
Chris: Yes. Sorry. Melinda specifically said she's tired of being the lackey of such "Elders."
Helena: No. That's not the Melinda we all know.
Chris: I know. And also she hasn't got in touch with her first charge for a while. Rich. He's been asking. From what I heard from Billie.
Helena: I see.
Chris: I don't know what happened after honeymoon. Or maybe the trauma after that event before the official wedding of Melinda and Felicia. She's been acting weird. And not herself.
Helena: You don't think anything is weird about Felicia. Maybe they could get her off the enchantment. And she maybe possibly was influenced by that Sylvia again.
Chris: Possibly. I heard that Sylvia is close with those two now. Something is up.
Helena: We been watching. And got blocked somewhere.
Chris: So you have no idea what happened either.
Helena: Yea.
Chris: Other strange things. It is my rival CEOs of the other companies have changed their minds by not putting bad gossip on me.
Helena: That is strange. What if someone got involved and secretly helped you.
Chris: Possibly. But who. I asked Archibald. And he had no idea about it.
Helena: Maybe it could have been Melinda. You said she has changed. Maybe have threatened them.
Chris: That's a bit farfetched. She may seem not herself right now. But threatening someone. Not her forte.
Helena: It's just a theory. Maybe you can help us find out.
Chris: I'll try. But doubt Melinda will say anything.
Helena: Doesn't hurt to try. Remember. We getting low on whitelighters or whitelighter-witches to be guardians for new charges. Due to the couple of weeks ago of those darklighter attacks. Losing witches to the dark side. Anastasia was one of our best. And...
Chris: Sorry about that. That's unfortunate. But I must go.
Helena: As do I.

Sandy: Lies. Time to deal some hurt.

Jean/ Nala: Ouch!
[Sandy walks over them, smirking devilishly.]
Sandy: You gals learned your lesson?
Jean (still in fear): Yes.
Nala (still in fear): Yea.
Sandy: Great. But I have another power and want to mess with your mind.
[Sandy begins to move her hand to Jean's when Davis ORBS in with Melanie.]
Melanie: A witch is not getting corrupted this time.
Davis: Yea.
Sandy: Corrupted? What are you talking about?
Melanie: We're talking about who's hiding. Show yourself. Anastasia.
[Davis then goes over near Jean and Nala and then glances back over to Melanie.]
Davis: I'll take care these girls and come back. And be careful while I'm gone.
Melanie: You got it.
[Davis then ORBS out with Jean and Sandy. Anastasia then uncloaks herself.]
Anastasia: Well. If it isn't that witch that ruined my plans with punishing that criminal.
Melanie: Back at you gal. If it isn't that witch that bit my whitelighter. So we're even.
Anastasia: Sandy is mine. I was close. Those bullies deserved punishment.
Melanie: There's other ways. You can't just use a witch who have just came upon her powers and treat her like that.
Anastasia: I can do whatever. Don't follow those stupid rules anymore.
Anastasia (to Sandy): They needed punishment. Right?
Sandy: Yes. They deserved it. It's so nice to not hide my powers.
Melanie: Don't listen to her. That's wrong. You could have went to the staff.
Anastasia: They wouldn't do anything. As Sandy told me herself, her roommates were protected. And whatever she told.
Melanie: It's still not the way.
Anastasia: Such a goodie-two-shoes witch. Abiding to those rules. Once you want something done to someone, do it yourself.
Melanie: I'm warning you. Since you're evil now, I can blow you up.
Anastasia: Or I can poison you. We'll see who's faster.
[Anastasia then conjures up a darklighter's crossbow.]
Anastasia (cont'd): Wall!
[She then uses her black telekinetic orbing to throw Melanie against a wall. And the grabs Sandy forcefully.]
Anastasia (cont'd) (staring over at Melanie): Sandy is mine now. Witch. Have fun. Hanging.
[Anastasia then BLACK ORBS out with Sandy.]
Melanie: No! Not again! This new power of sensing is useless if I can't save all of them.
[Davis ORBS back in and runs over to Melanie.]
Davis: Where's Sandy? And Anastasia.
Melanie: I lost them. It's only with her that I can't track as well.
Davis: Remember. Melanie. She's different from the other that were corrupted to influence witches to the evil side.
Melanie: I know. Anastasia was considered. She knew all of the tricks for everything back then.
Davis: Yes. Now come on. On to the next mission. We'll save the next one.
Melanie: I hope so.

Brooks: Sorry. Had another job. Couldn't resist.
Gideon: I see. Anyway. Had some thought.
Brooks: About what? Sir.
Gideon: Approaching on how to get revenge on Leo Wyatt. I realized it's foolish to go after his progeny and the rest of those Chosen Ones due to their growing powers and now that son of his, is an Elder.
[Gideon pauses a bit.]
Gideon: That Chris. Never like his other future. And don't like this version of him either. But anyway.
Brooks: Anyway. What?
Gideon: I decided to go for his grandkids. They are not as powerful as their parents. And it will an easy target.
Brooks: Are you sure about that? From what I learned. They do have powers. To protect themselves. I remember the stories of how Wyatt, as a toddler, foiled your plans to kill him.
Gideon: Yes. I remember. But there's ways. Our species have the ability to glamour like demons. I can disguise myself so those kids can trust me.
Brooks: Come on. They'll know who their parents. And will sense something is up.
Gideon: Good point. Got any better plans.
Brooks: We all know that manor protects from any evil for coming in. And us Griffin Witches are like the Phoenix Witches, we're not considered evil and in between. Let us grab them for you.
Gideon: That's not a bad idea. But I know their grandparents might be in the manor.
Brooks: Come. We been doing this for a while. We have ways to weaken all obstacles in our way.
Gideon: Yes I heard. But I don't want Leo dead. I just want him to suffer. As for his darling wife, if she gets involved. Deal with her as you wish.
Brooks: Of course. Sir. We'll do the attack tonight. Those grandparents will be asleep by then. Along with the parents.
Gideon: Sounds good to me. And I'll keep laying low for now.
Brooks: Of course. Sir.

Maya: Look at you. Ready to start a family already.
Aquila: I guess so. Also. Thanks for the help. That darkness.
Maya: I knew you could fight against it. You changed.
Aquila: I know. Sorry about almost killing your love.
Maya: It's alright. Was out of your control. And also sorry about that hot Danish man.
Aquila: Yea. Other Dark me ended things with him. But I still look good. Sure I'll find other treats. Maybe take example from Leila and Vera.
Maya: I don't you should go for the young ones. It's mostly...
Aquila: Hey. I'm not that old.
Maya: I know. But still. P3 is a club that is not meant for your age group. Aquila. You'll figure something out.
Aquila: I hope so.
Maya: Maybe join Phoenixcorp. There could be future partners around your intended group.
Aquila: No thanks. Maya. I'm done with being leader. It's time for the new generation to rise. You could have too.
Maya: I know. But my future is meant to be with Chris. As for what occupation that leads me into, we'll see.
Aquila: For now. You're okay with being a housewife. You used to be exciting.
Maya: I know. Falling in love changed that. And after Lila. And also being a mother changes your perspective.
Aquila: I see. Anyway. Let's set Lila down on the couch. Time to enjoy our tea.
Maya: I agree.
[Aquila moves Lila out of her arms to a spot on the couch next to her. She then joins Maya, with the two of them each grabbing their cups of tea and sipping it as they begin to chat.]

[Wyatt is seen on his cell phone talking with Leo.]
Wyatt (on phone): I'm really worry on this target on us? I don't know if the barriers are enough to protect those Griffin Witches. From what PJ found out from some book that came to him.
Leo (on phone): I know. They could find a way to get through it. Like how Bianca was able to with Chris.
Wyatt (on phone): And also strange. That those Shadow Demons are on our side now.
Leo (on phone): Yea. At first, those princess of evil wanted to go after our family. And now they use these Shadow Demons to protect us. What is their game here?
Wyatt (on phone): Who knows? Something devious. Maybe to hold power over us. They help us. Forced to do something in return.
Leo (on phone): Yea. Possibly. And also there was something in the matter. My eyes could be fooled.
Wyatt (on phone): What is it? Dad.
Leo (on phone): I saw Gideon across from the street when walked past the window to get out to the front door to get mail. And when I came out, he was gone.
[Wyatt's eyes go wide in shock.]
Wyatt (on phone): Gideon. The one who kept trying to kill me as a kid.
Leo (on phone): Yes. That same one. I vanquished him to change both alternate worlds back to normal. How is he still alive?
Wyatt (on phone): What mom said?
Leo (on phone): That I could be seeing things. From stress and such. Watching over Jerri and Lila sometimes. And work.
Wyatt (on phone): Mom may be right. But we really need to figure out who put the bounty on us. The Power of Eight.
Leo (on phone): Also. You know what's going on with Melinda? The Elders paid a visit to me. Said she's not answering call from charges anymore since returning from the honeymoon.
Wyatt (on phone): Nope. Dad. Have no idea. Maybe Melinda is just tired of balancing both lives. She's just pushing her calls out.
Leo (on phone): That's hard. When we got together. I couldn't ignore my calls. And you know your mom and I.
Wyatt (on phone): I know. Womb me switched your powers with you and mom.
Leo (on phone): Exactly. Something is up with Melinda. Because the Elders are getting worried. This is bad.
Wyatt (on phone): I think Chris will figure out a way. He's the more rational one over the three of us besides Mel. After all, he's an Elder. Probably Helena already asked him.
Leo (on phone): Possibly. Don't worry. We'll do our best to keep our granddaughter safe.
Wyatt (on phone): Thanks.
Leo (on phone): No problem.
[The phone conversation ends. Wyatt puts away the phone.]
Wyatt: Now back to the real life.

UNDERWORLD. DEMONIC BAR. DAY
[Phillip, in his suit, is seen talking with Rilas. And sipping on some fancy whiskey.]
Rilas: How's your plans going?
Phillip: I thought it was fine till that mortal noble found about her means of taking over the throne. I manipulated those ones she chose. But no...
Rilas: That woman doesn't stop. Super stubborn just like that mortal mortal of the infamous Dazos.
Phillip: Before I thought he was the right one. But he has changed. Gone to get the good side. Been convincing Lady Eleanor. To speed off the process.
Rilas: Yea. Of course. Now Dane is soon to be a father. He wants to postpone the decision.
Phillip: I can't have that.
[Phillip's eyes now turn to a demonic yellow color revealing his true self.]
Rilas: You know. This woman may be mortal but she's smart. Soon it will be found out that you are the Phillip she knows.
Phillip: That Phillip is gone. I killed him years ago along two of those " heirs" that were meant to rule Eclary. And then just kept manipulating the rest.
Rilas: And now what's the problem.
Phillip: The ex-half demon now lawyer. I have to get to find a way to get rid of him. Or prevent that man from convincing Eleanor to postpone the heir rituals that is needed for Dane to take over.
Rilas: I have some connections. But you know. It always requires a might price. "Phillip."
Phillip: With this identity I have taken, I can provide the price. Whatever you need.
Rilas: Great. I'll be on my break soon. And we can talk at a private table.
Phillip: Sounds good to me. Cheers then. And bring it coming.
Rilas: Of course.
[Phillip sips his drink and Rilas goes to get another bottle for him.

JACOBSON LAW FIRM. DANIEL'S OFFICE. DAY
[Daniel is with Lady Brigitte in his office.]
Daniel: I'm glad you found some time to meet me. I know you're a busy woman.
Lady Brigitte: Yes. Somehow. Now let's cut to the chase. Mr. Jacobson. You said it was urgent when I got the message.
Daniel: It is. Anything for my nephew. And my future niece in law.
Lady Brigitte: As an esteemed lawyer as yourself, you think it's wise to use your talents to get into personal matters.
Daniel: I know. But I want to talk with you not as a lawyer. But as a caring uncle. But I did dab in a few things about the process about getting into the status of royalty either married or inherited into.
Lady Brigitte: There's no convincing me. Mr. Jacobson. Things are urgent as my loyal assistant says.
Daniel: Look. That assistant may have given you guidance. But is it the right decision to rush this. Dane is about to become a father. He can't just leave his wife behind like that. If he is unable to return back. Think of the reputation of your country. Its future king abandoning family values.
Lady Brigitte: You provide a good point about that. But I'm getting older. And I feel like there's been a jinx. But all I say stay in this world. Got it.
Daniel: Understood. I know about privacy. Remember. I'm a lawyer.
Lady Brigitte: Lately. None of them last long. Either anger our commoners. Use the money for other things.
Daniel: What's to say that Dane will end up the same way? I say wait.
Lady Brigitte: But Phillip says this will be the best decision. And I might not live that long.
Daniel: I see. Maybe I can help figure it out. Instead of my nephew accompanying you back to Eclary, I'll join you. Besides I work too much anyways. And I got my vacations days built up.
Lady Brigitte: That's not necessary. The paperwork is good. I just need Dane.
Daniel: Is it really? Remember. You know I'm a very esteemed lawyer.
Lady Brigitte: Alright. Guess it's hard to say no with you.
Daniel: Great. I'm glad you understand. I want my nephew to get to know his son better. To have the same family I have no. I had a tortured childhood. Just like my nephew.
Lady Brigitte: Oh really. That's why this issue is important to you.
Daniel: Yes. I think we're all good. Just send me the details and I'll see you whenever you need to return to Eclary.
Lady Brigitte: I will.
Daniel: Good day. M'am.
Lady Brigitte: Good day. Mr. Jacobson.
Daniel: Allow me to escort you out.
Lady Brigitte: Thank you. Mr. Jacobson. What a gentleman.

Melinda: And why is that?
Chris: You know the answer. Mel.
Melinda: Do I?

Melinda: As I said. I been busy.
Chris: I been busy too. Along with Wyatt. With our work. And we still find time to focus on our magical lives.
Melinda: That's you guys. Besides after getting married. It's time for a new outlook in life. I'm tired of being the errand girl for the Elders.
[Chris rolls her eyes at Melinda's.]
Chris: Mel. I never seen you act like that before. Towards the Elders.
Melinda: I'm more mature now. And that's how mom was. Remember. They wanted mom and dad and separated because it was against the rules.
Chris: But they understood later.
Melinda: Whatever. Chris. Head back to your proud company.
Chris: I will. And can whenever. Archibald will done fine for a while while I have this talk with you.
Melinda: I don't want this talk.
Felicia (o/s): Babe. I think we found the critic that will visit today. We need to make sure things are well.
Melinda: Well. Perfect timing. Go. Chris. I got things to do.
Chris: This talk isn't over. I'll find you at your new house later.
Melinda: We can keep that conversation going later but it's not changing my mind.
Melinda (cont'd) (glares at Chris): You know how to see yourself out.

PJ: Right. That trip.
Dane: Yea. My uncle will try to help. But we'll see if she's too stubborn to accept his offer.
PJ: I see. No matter what choice you make. I'll understand.
Dane: Really? PJ darling.
PJ: Yea. Of course. Despite the struggles and such. We'll always found our way together.
Dane: You're right. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have seen the right perspective like my uncle did. Love is not weakness.
PJ: Yes.
Dane: Also. Should we figure out a name?
PJ: In due time.
Dane: We got to hurry. Your belly is getting bigger and will be even bigger in the later months.
PJ: Guess this walk will help. We'll brainstorm in a bit after walking around this park a bit.

GREYLING MANSION. OFFICE ROOM. DAY
[Kaden Greyling, a man looking to be in his 40's, but is actually much older than that. He seems to be doing some paperwork as Brooks walks in stands in front of desk near him.]
Kaden: Brooks. You're here.
Brooks: I am. As you called. Boss.
Kaden: How's my proud creation doing?
Brooks: Well as always. So what's the issue?
Kaden: The current mission. You Griffin Witches were assigned. I warned you about dealing with those witches.
Brooks: I know. Boss. But this could be the thing. We'll become more known as the ones that hurt your heart. The motivation of our creation. And me. Your first ever. Griffin Witch.
Kaden: I know. But heard stories of him. Gideon is not one that can be trusted.
Brooks: I know. But we have the same goals.
Kaden: And what is that?
Brooks: I too was betrayed by one of them. One of their ancestors. She's the one that made us seem we never existed like those Phoenix Witches.
Kaden: Whom?
Brooks: That Penny Halliwell. After what happened to her husband, she had it out for all of us. Researched about who we are. And as such, we had to go into hiding. And you were our savior. Our wonderful creator whom helped us blend in.
Kaden: All of you are my pride and joy. You especially. Brooks.
Brooks: Thank you. Boss.
Kaden: Just be careful. I don't want what I worked hard to become extinct.
Brooks: It won't. Seems the Elder. I guess ex-Elder has changed his mind.
Kaden: Good then. The mission is cancelled.
Brooks: It's not. Just a different. We failed. Last time. Because as you warned...
Kaden: Yes. Attacking them separate is wise. But they have allies everywhere.
Brooks: Yea. Some of us almost killed. They saw through it. And for some reason...
Kaden: What? Brooks.
Brooks: The Shadow Demons were involved. Saved all of them from being captured.
[Kaden scratches his head in thought.]
Kaden: My god. They are something. Allying themselves with demons.
Brooks: It's not them per say. I don't know if you heard of those princesses of evil who came into power.
Kaden: I have. Heard they were involved with those darklighter attacks in the city. Usually they don't go out in the open like that.
Brooks: Exactly. I heard stories. But maybe...
Kaden: Maybe what?
Brooks: The coven that Michael started has risen again to continue his legacy.
Kaden: Ah yes. Michael. He was great. Before his end. It got disbanded.
Brooks: And now they're back. Ready to make their claim. Anyway. Back on topic. Gideon's new plan.
Kaden: Go ahead.
Brooks: We're going for those kids. Gideon now thinks the better plan to grab the kids of Wyatt and Chris Halliwell.
[Kaden sighs heavily.]
Kaden: Gideon thinks that's a better place. You know they'll go after you all.
Brooks: I know the risk. Boss. But it's all worth making a name for us. Being able to steal from the Warrens.
Kaden: It's a death wish. I forbid from getting you into this mission.
Brooks: Boss. You may be my creator. But not my father or even my mother to tell me what to do.
Kaden: I may not be. But it seems like it. Remember what you said. It it wasn't for me. Penny Halliwell would have made a way to make the Griffin Witches extinct for life.
Brooks: I know. But one need to step up. Grow up. Mature. Spread their own wings.
Kaden: And I have allowed that. And all those pass bounty hunts. With the Shadow Demon. Landon. And now Gideon. Has put you all in danger.
Brooks: As I said. I know the risks. We'll succeed this time.
Kaden: That's what you said last time.
Brooks: We'll be careful this time.
Kaden: Alright then. I guess there's no convincing you. If you excuse me, I have to get back to my usual things.
Brooks: Course. Boss. I'll leave you be.
[Brooks then walks out of the door.]
Kaden: Now back to my usual business.
[Kaden returns to his computer typing on it to continue what he was working on.]

UNDERWORLD. A DARK CAVE. DAY
[Daniel and Westley are seen trapped in a cage in a dark cave in the underworld. A demon, Fargos, comes up near them, facing Daniel directly.]
Fargos: Oh my. Such a defenseless mortal now. David.
Daniel: I made the right choice. What do you want? Fargos. We are just defenseless mortals.
Westley: Uncle Daniel. Why does he call you David? And you a mortal.
Daniel: I'll explain later if we get out of here. Sorry you got involved.
Westley: Uncle. Don't say that. I had to hop in. Aunt Alexis would kill me if something happened to you.
Daniel: Thanks.
Fargos: Well. David. Guess you go by Daniel now. I was hired to convince you to change your mind.
Daniel: Change my mind about what?
Fargos: About getting involved in the heir royal situation. With your other nephew. Dane.
Daniel: Yes. I chose to. Dane is still family. And I don't want that decision to leave his wife and child with the father by the side.
Fargos: The one who hired me doesn't want that. He has better plans. If you go back, the rest of your family will be fine. And this handsome boy. I won't dare put a hair on him.
Daniel: What I know. It's nothing demon related. Just some heir issues. Unlesss...
Fargos: Exactly. The one who hired me is with Lady Brigitte. He's been taking the identity to help guide her decisions.
Daniel: Nothing is going to change my mind.
[Fargos smirks.]
Fargos: Oh really. You know. I know where you wife and children live. If you don't change your mind, they will face a very worst fate.
Daniel: You vile demon. It's all about control. Right? Your hiree wants Eclary for himself. Doesn't he? And my nephew, ruins the plans, if he doesn't do it right away.
Exactly. It must not be postponed. Since you're going to meet a future deadly fate anyway. Here's the plan.
[Fargos pauses a bit.]
Fargos (con'td): Heirs and heirs have come. The one I worked for has manipulated all of them to cause failure. And the same will be for Dane. Also. And once there are no more heirs. He will end Lady Brigitte life and find a way to become the king of the small kingdom and then work higher to partner with other bigger countries and doing the same.
Daniel: That's ambitious. It won't happen.
Fargos: But it will. You're a mortal now. Can't stop anything. And no one knows the real plan.
Daniel: One will. Good will always prevail. I can't let what is meant for my nephew to go into a bad place of ruin.
Fargos: We'll see. I'll give by end of today. If you don't. You know what happens.
[Fargos SHIMMERS out.]
Westley: What the heck. He just vanish away.
Daniel: As I said. I'll explain. If we ever get out of here.
Westley: Jeez. Aunt Alexis told me hints about your past. Didn't realize it was all these craziness. What did he mean by you being just a mortal now?
Daniel: Once we get out of here, I'll tell you everything.
Westley: It sounds unlikely. Just tell me now. You know when we give him what he wants. People like him...
Daniel: Yes. Alright. Fine. Here it is.
[Daniel begins to tell his story as Westley begins to listen.]

MAGIC SCHOOL. HEADMISTRESS' OFFICE. DAY
[Melinda is there with Billie.]
Billie: What a great surprise. You visiting me. And sorry about that alarm. Don't know what's going on with the wards.
Melinda: It's alright. Sometimes magic has its loose ends. Maybe one of the ward spells wasn't casted right.
Billie: I doubt it. Looked over myself each time. Maybe....
Melinda: Maybe what? Headmistress.
Billie: Evil has learned how to manipulate through these walls. From what I heard, demons did take over Magic School at one point.
Melinda: That's one point.
Billie: Maybe. Still. I might look over it some more. As the current Headmistress, and also pretty unexperienced in this title. I cannot let evil take this place so easily. Paige put her trust in me.
Melinda: I understand. Think everyone thought Kevin would have been the choice. Considering he did watch over when Aunt Paige was away.
Billie: I know. What was she thinking?
Melinda: You know her. Always for the underdog. Always believed in the impossible. And had a good feeling about things. I remember the story that she had an inkling that Cole was evil again back then. But no one believed her.
Billie: Yea. But what truly brings you here?
Melinda: I can't come by and visit and see how the new Headmistress is doing.
[Billie cringes.]
Billie: I get it. Paige sent you to keep tabs on me. Right.
Melinda: No. It's just a regular ole visit. And I barely get a chance to see you. Aunt Billie. I mean. Headmistress. You were an important member back then with my mom and aunts back then. Despite some things.
Billie: Yea I know. Was tricked. Had no idea my sister had been manipulated since a child and mind twisted.
Melinda: That was a shame. And you had to...
Billie: It was self-defense. I just...
Melinda: It was instinct.
Billie: Anyway. So Rich has been wondering about you. And others too about your current moodiness.
Melinda: The Elders went to you. Didn't they?
Billie: Yes. They are worried. And your family too. I assume you know that Chris has been pressured a lot. Being an Elder himself.
Melinda: I'm making my own mark here. In the world. I can't be just be focused on the magical world all of the time. And as for Rich, we were just whitelighter and charge. Nothing more.
[Billie rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Billie: Mel. That's not what Rich said about you. You two had a bond. When you were on the evil side, thought dead to the world. You felt broken having to kidnap him.
Melinda: As you said. "Had."
Billie: What really happened to you? After the honeymoon, you totally changed into a new person.
Melinda: This meeting is over. Don't want to be questioned. And the ward had no problem.
[Melinda glares back at Billie and uses Black Telekinetic Orbing to throw Billie out of her seat and against a wall. Her eyes glow red and vanishes in a fading blue colored viper shaped shimmer.]
Billie: My god. I have to tell her family. Melinda got turned and corrupted.
[Billie then recovers herself from being thrown against the wall and rushes out of the office.]

Gideon: Like father. Like daughter. Always was wary of me.
[Leo glares at him.]
Leo: Gideon! I knew I wasn't seeing things.
Gideon: You always had a keen eye. Leo. But not keen enough where you couldn't figure you who was after your son back then.
Leo: You...
Gideon: What happened? Lost your passiveness of when your whitelighter when you "fell from grace"?
Leo: What do you want?
Gideon: Vengeance. For what you did. Leo.
Leo: I had no choice. Gideon.
Gideon: Oh but you did. And now you will pay for choosing that choice. My vengeance will happen. You won't see it coming. Only came to warn you ahead. Leo.

Wyatt (on phone): I can't believe this. They want to get us back. By selling something like this.
Gwen (on phone): Don't let this rattle? Wyatt. I know how you are? Considering we dated for a while.
Wyatt (on phone): I know. It's just. Things are like.... I don't know how to explain. Melinda been acting weird according to Chris. And the Elders. And those princesses of evil. And the Griffin Witches have target on me and the rest of siblings and cousins.
Gwen (on phone): I understand. You know my life was normal too till a crazy man got obsessed with trying to end my life.
Wyatt (on phone): At least your life is back to normal. Our family tends to deal with both struggles.
Gwen (on phone): From what I learned, from what those staff said in Magic School. Despite whatever is thrown at them. They'll struggle and survive. Come on. Wyatt. You all done for years. Don't worry about this stupid article.
[Gwen pauses a bit on the phone.]
Gwen (on phone) (cont'd): I can take care of this. Did some research and found out about who is the Editor-In-Chief of this place. Worry about your magazine. After all, remember, you were the one that wanted to spread your wings. When we were dating, you mentioned your Aunt Phoebe begged you a couple of times.
Wyatt (on phone): Yes. And I kept rejecting the offer. But now...
Gwen (on phone): Now what? Wyatt. Come on. I may have been busy and I did check up on your status. Remember that W & C Magazine almost wasn't doing well.
Wyatt (on phone): It was just luck. Who knows when opportunity will come again?
Gwen (on phone): Come on. Wyatt Matthew Halliwell. When has articles like this affect you this much?
Wyatt (on phone): Thanks. Gwen.

HALLIWELL'S. THE OFFICE. DAY
[Melinda seems to be deep in thought and just staring blank into the computer screen as Felicia rolls into the office and goes over to her.]
Felicia: What's up? Babe. Have you been in here all this time since the visit to Magic School?
Melinda: What?! Yea. Sorry. I made the worst mistake. Shouldn't have...
Felicia: Have what?
Melinda: I let my emotions get out of control. And my evil side was revealed to the Headmistress. And attacked her.
[Felicia rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Felicia: Mel. My gosh. But it will be fine. It was bound to come out anyway. Wanted it to be later. But...
Melinda: I know. But now Billie will sends news to the family. They'll try and want to cure me.
Felicia: We won't let that happen. I'm sure Wargarias will find a way. This is the best life. Babe. As he said.
Melinda: Yes. That's right.
Felicia: Nothing will make you change your mind to go back to the old mind. Right? Babe.
[Felicia grazes Melinda's face gently.]
Melinda: Right. Also I somehow revealed myself now. Time to cause some havoc. Don't you think? Have our darklighters have their fun again?
Felicia: That's not a bad idea. We're the princesses of evil and also now the Queens of the Darklighters. I guess our group.
Call upon Lyrian. He'll know what to do.
Melinda: Agreed.
[Lyrian BLACK ORBS in with a figure with a black hood cover over the head and hands cuffed in non-magic energy ringed cuffs.]
Lyrian: My princesses.
Melinda: We were just speaking of you. Lyrian.
Lyrian: What an honor. Brought a gift for you. A sort of spy. Saw him looking around.
Melinda: Show me who he is.
Lyrian: As you wish. My princess.
[Lyrian takes the black hood cover off revealing it to be Kevin. He is shocked at the realization.]
Kevin: Melinda! You're one of the princesses of Evil. And...
[Kevin then glances over to Felicia.]
Kevin (cont'd): And you... I had a feeling you were no good.
Lyrian: My my. What a foolish Elder. It was not their own choice. A bit of influence. And they just gave into the evil inside them.
Kevin: So you corrupted them?
[Lyrian smirks.]
Lyrian: I won't answer that. Elder. But I brought. You. My nosy spy. Lurking in the underworld. For them to have you become like us. The rise of our own version of a Dark Elder.
Kevin: They don't exist anymore. Considering what I was told from my other fellows.
Lyrian: They do. Not created this way. But. Very rare to see. Anyway. It's time.
Kevin: I'll never be corrupted.
from my other fellows.
Lyrian: This poison. It is hard to resist. Melinda knows well before. There's only one cure. And I'm not telling you.
[Lyrian CONJURES a dagger in one of his hands. In his other hand, he rips one of the sleeves of Kevin's arm, revealing his bare arm.]
Kevin: Hey. I only get one robe.
Lyrian: I don't care. It's your honor. Melinda. Felicia has done it before many times.
Felicia: Yes I have. It will be great. My love.
Melinda: Alright.
[Melinda walks over to where Kevin and Lyrian is. Kevin stares deeply into her eyes.]
Kevin: Come on. Mel. This is not you. Come back to the light.
Melinda: There's no light in me anymore. And soon will you. Elder. I'll take that dagger.
Lyrian: As you wish.
[Lyrian hands Melinda the dagger. Melinda takes it and goes close to Kevin and readies the dagger's point onto his arm.]
Kevin: As I said. I won't be corrupted.
[Melinda smirks.]
Melinda: We'll see.
Lyrian: You know what to do?
Melinda: Yea.
[Just like in the dream before, Melinda engraves the mark of the
Viper cutting through his skin, as blood is seen in the lining as he screams in pain. She now moves the dagger away to let it set.]
Lyrian: Finally. The incantation.
Melinda: Vipera Transfusio.
[The outline is finished as the blood heals becoming a tattoo mark of the Viper's Mark in dark blue color. A black light envelops him like Melinda before when she had been corrupted by the mark. His sleeve robes that was torn heals back to normal, but now his robes are of to be a dark navy color and his eyes go black and then kneels down.]
Kevin: My princess. I am yo... mu..st re.. Aah!
[Melinda then grazes Kevin's gently.]
Melinda: Don't resist. My new soldier.
[Melinda's eyes glow red. His eyes glows red.]
Kevin: I won't. Sorry.
[Kevin now gives an evil smirk.]
Kevin (cont'd): Long live. My princess. Don't worry. Princess. No one will know about who you two are.
Melinda: Thank you. Welcome to the team. My newest Dark Elder.
Kevin: What is my duty? Princess.
Melinda: To train my new charges. To our new tasks. As Darklighters. And now Dark Elders. Lyrian will show where they are.
Kevin: As you wish.
Lyrian: Don't worry. I'll take good care of this Elder.
Melinda: But one more thing. I need you to set up an attack in the city again. It's time to truly reveal ourselves. I think.
Lyrian: Is it too soon? Princess.
Melinda: It's the perfect time. My family are not foolish. They will figure it out eventually.
Lyrian: As I wish. I'll get the team. And on your orders. Whenever.
Melinda: Sounds good. To me.
Lyrian: Great. Now time to go. Kevin.
Kevin: Yea.
[Lyrian takes Kevin's hand and BLACK ORBS out with him. Felicia looks over to Melinda.]
Felicia: Are you sure about this? Love.
Melinda: I am. It's time. To show what us Darklighters should be. We shall reign. Even better than the Source of Evil.
Felicia: Agreed. Now. Shall we get back to our usual work? This restaurant. Maybe actually what you are meant to on this computer. And I will go back to what I was doing.
Melinda: Yes. No more distractions.
Felicia: Exactly.

Lady Brigitte: I had a feeling. That's not actually bad. And I won't have to take the crown.
Phillip: Why not?
Lady Brigitte: I'm working with a lawyer here. He has a way to postpone that. So things don't turn out like the last ones we found.
Phillip: What about our current lawyer?
Lady Brigitte: I don't trust him. His decisions have led to our last ones going a really horrible path. And I don't want my truest blood going down that path.
Phillip: You never favor from my decisions before. Why now?
Lady Brigitte: I just have bit of perspective now. So I think we can wait for Dane. And let's not rush this.
Phillip: I can't accept this.
Lady Brigitte: You must. Remember. You worked for me.
Phillip: Not exactly. The Phillip you know died a while ago. Think I'll allow to join that lawyer. And I'll continue what I'm meant to do.
Lady Brigitte: What are you talking about? Phillip. Continue what you are meant to do?

Brooks: To burn their homes. They'll have no safe place.
Hiram: You're crazy. Look. Gideon is giving us a good offer.
Brooks: This is where she came from. The one that hurt my heart. Her first home.
[Hiram then realizes something in his mind about Brooks.]
Hiram: Brooks. The whole thing. About the bounty on them. Wasn't Gideon's? You probably just put it in his mind. Knowing he was arrived. You knew his vengeance against the father. This is just wrong.
Brooks: Remember. We're vengeance. Remember. We act more violent than those Phoenixes.
Hiram: I know. But we are still are considered bounty demons. And acting on your own is not the way. And that's why you didn't call the others here. You're hoping I would agree and help you.
Brooks: Exactly. You always knew me so well.
Hiram: You know this is reckless.
Brooks: I don't care. If you won't join me, I can do it myself. Set this place on fire.
Hiram: I can't let you do that.
[Hiram then goes in to make a portal in Brooks' stomach and strips his powers. He then falls to his knees from it.]
Brooks: You traitor!
Hiram: Seems I'll take charge of the mission later today. As for you, Brooks. I know of a place to put you.
Brooks: Where? Somewhere you won't find a way to summon your powers back or even manipulate people.

Alexis (on phone): I'm getting worried. Your Uncle and my nephew has been missing for hours now. His parents are worried and I'm worried about Daniel.
Dane (on phone): My god. When!
Alexis (on phone): No idea. The interns and the other employees called in. Daniel went missing first. And then got Westley when he went out for a bathroom break.
Dane (on phone): Have you gone to the police for it?
Alexis (on phone): But you know the usual rules. The 48 hour limit. I know you have a way to find your Uncle. I know the history of your family.
Dane (on phone): I'll try my best. But you know. Uncle Daniel gave up his powers. He's not a demon anymore. I can't track him anymore.
Alexis (on phone): You must have another way. Isn't your wife a witch? Heard from what Daniel told me about dealing with witches back then.
Dane (on phone): Sure. Aunt Alexis. I'll ask.
Alexis (on phone): Thank you. Dane.
Dane (on phone): It's no problem. This is what family does.

Piper: If anything. Remember. We can just call him.

Lady Brigitte: Sorry for the wait. Booked the first flight out. And around this time. Stuck in traffic.
Vance: It's alright. Is it just you? Lady Brigitte. To get things started before Mr. Patten arrives to discuss the contract to accept his title.
Lady Brigitte: There's been a change of plans. I wish to take upon this title.
Vance: What?!
Lady Brigitte: I know it's surprising.
Vance: But. You been looking for the right heirs until Mr. Patten, your close blooded than anyone else. Why the change.
Lady Brigitte: Phillip has given me a better perspective. I know more about this kingdom than anyone. And fitting for the job.
Vance: But remember. You're not as young anymore. If something happens, and no heir is recognized.
Lady Brigitte: I know. This castle goes to donation and this kingdom wouldn't exist anymore. Maybe it's better. We're not known in the world. Even Mr. Patten didn't know this country existed.
Vance: You must be really jetlagged and not thinking straight. I say we postponed this meeting for tomorrow. Or whenever it's comfortable.
Lady Brigitte: There's no time but now. Mr. Matten.
Vance: If that is what we wish. Let's get started.
Lady Brigitte: Excellent.
[Lady Brigitte smirks.]
Lady Brigitte (thinking): Easier than I thought. Soon this kingdom will belong to the side of evil. And then. Who knows what's next.
[Vance then opens up his briefcase and grabs the folder of the contract inside and places it in front of Lady Brigitte.]
Vance: I suggest you read a couple of time before accepting it.
[Lady Brigitte glances at it a bit and then faces her direction towards Vance.]
Lady Brigitte: Mr. Matten. I trust your judgement. Just tell me all the areas where I can sign on the dotted line.
Vance: Alright. Then. But one more chance. Got to be sure. Please try to look over again.
Lady Brigitte: As I said. It is not necessary. I'm ready to accept.
[Vance then gets a pen ready for Lady Brigitte and begins to flip the pages of the contract for the first contract when loud knocks are heard outside the door. A group of men begin to shout from outside the door one by one.]
Man #1: Come on out!
Man #2: Fraud and identity theft are illegal anywhere including a small country like this.
Man #3: We're from a special organization that works in congruent with the CIA.
Man #4: And had our agents infiltrate as people close to the people in this castle and the kingdom of this country.
Man #5: Look. The security told us that Lady Brigitte had returned. But we know the truth.
[Vance rolls his eyes at Lady Brigitte.]
Vance: What is going on?
Lady Brigitte: It's just a misunderstanding.
Vance: Are you sure? They appear to have agents that affirm what is said about you. "Lady Brigitte". If that is your real name.
Lady Brigitte: As I said. It's just a misunderstanding. If they get rowdy, I can call security.
Vance: I doubt that would help. These men outside work with the CIA and are possibly higher ranking compared to the security detail.
[Lady Brigitte grumbles.]
Lady Brigitte: Fine. If you won't believe me, I'll take matters into my own hands.
Vance: What do you mean by that?
Lady Brigitte: You'll never find it. Dumb lawyer.
Vance: Dumb lawyer?! Oh my gosh. They are right. I have to turn you in. You're not the real Lady Brigitte.
[Lady Brigitte then GLAMOURS back into Phillip.]
Phillip: Not likely. Guess I'll have to take you and change your mind.
Vance: What?! And you just...
Phillip: Oh I know.

Man #1: Dang. We lost them.
Man #2: And the lawyer is gone too.
Man #3: But where.
Man #4: There's no way to escape out of here.

HALLIWELL MANOR. LIVING ROOM. DAY
[Piper is with Billie.]
Piper: I just can't believe we have to deal with more trouble now.
Billie: I know. It's hard to believe. Melinda attacked me and I saw her eyes glowed. Don't know what's going on. But maybe evil got to her during the honeymoon even with Elder's watch as they could.
Piper: I'll go talk to her. Melinda usually listens to me.
Billie: I doubt it. She didn't even listen to me.
Piper: We'll see. I'm her mother. We'll see.
Billie: You can try. Just wanted to tell you all the news. But now...
Piper: I know. Get back to Magic School. If Melinda can't be convinced, she will find a way to get back in.
Billie: Yea. Maybe I'll close the portals for the manors now. Just for precaution. And the one near the Golden Gate Bridge also.
Piper: That's a good option.
Billie: Later. Then. Hope you can convince her.
Piper: I hope so too.
Billie: Well then. Good luck.
Piper: Thanks. Let me escort you out too. I need to head out anyway to the car to get to Halliwell's to give a good talk with my daughter.
Billie: Alright. Thank you. Piper.
Piper: After all. We're friends. Remember.
Billie: Yea.

[Multiple camera shots of the floors, ceilings, and the locked chambers computerized passcode with eye and fingerprint scanner for the prisoners it holds.

SUPERNATURAL TASK FORCE HEADQUARTERS. IMPRISONMENT ROOM BUILDING. PHILLIP'S ROOM. DAY
[Phillip is there as an agent, Agent Brahams, a tall grizzly man, with black hair, in his 30's, enters into the room and faces him.]
Agent Brahams: My my. This is a good look on you.
Phillip: Damn you. I can't believe that dumb lawyer was also a spy and got me fooled. It was all an act. Till the right timing.
Agent Brahams: You were fooled. But not by the lawyer. The real lawyer did work with you for a while. Till our secret agents whom infiltrated the work force in the kingdom figured out something was up. Things were off every time a deal with made since about twenty something years ago. So we found a way to meet with the lawyer without your knowledge...
Phillip: But how. I made sure that man was under my watchful eye.
Agent Brahams: This is our agency's job. Created to find a way to do what it is need to be. To maintain balance so corrupt beings like you don't cause trouble.
Phillip: We're building a better future for those foolish mortals. Have you seen how many mistakes they have made over the centuries?
Agent Brahams: That's what they all say. "Phillip."
Phillip: This prison won't hold me long. I will figure out a way to get out of here.
Agent Brahams: That's what the others say too. But have tried. And no success. You'll be stuck here for a while buddy. And whatever plans you had is now foiled.
Phillip: There are others like me. They will pick up what is meant to be. And my plans will come into fruition. He smirks.
Agent Brahams: Unlikely. With our members expanding. Making sure every corner is checked.
Phillip: That's impossible. In the odds. A loose end will happen. And the plans for evil will reign.
Agent Brahams: There's no convincing you. Is there?
Phillip: I have hope.
Agent Brahams: We'll see how hope lasts for you. I'll be back again.
Phillip: Whatever.
Agent Brahams: See you again. Phillip.
[Agent Brahams then exits out of the room. Beeps are heard as the automatic door opens to let him out. Phillip's eyes are serious.]
Phillip: These mechanics won't hold me long. Soon the others will find me and release me from this prison. And evil will continue its duty as necessary.

HALLIWELL'S. THE OFFICE. DAY
[Piper is there in the room heading over to the desk where Melinda is sitting.]
Melinda: This is a surprise. Mother. Sorry for the long wait. I had tons of meetings to get through with a couple of new partners.
[Piper then rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Piper: Mother?! You never... And what new partners? And have they been approved. Remember. Your dad and I are still considered on the paper, as the word on things.
Melinda: Remember. You two got a new branch. And made me in charge.
Piper: Yes. That is true. In charge. But we're still considered also part owners on the documents of the ownership contract of Halliwell's. Even though. Even though, title wise, you are the manager of Halliwell's.
Melinda: You and dad are barely going about here anymore. Worrying about your favorite grandchild. There's no right for you. Mom. And dad also.
Piper: Goodness. Billie was right. Something has changed. You have been corrupted.
Melinda: You're wrong. I accepted the better self of me. And thanks to that. Those men who bashed about Chris' current title and status don't' dare bother him anymore. Thanks to me.
[Piper widens her eyes in shock.]
Piper: My god. That was your doing? That's why Chris mentioned to me why it was kind of strange. Those rival companies changed their tune.
Melinda: That's right. Mother.
Piper: Melinda Halliwell. Don't "Mother" me in that tone.
Melinda: I'm a grown and independent woman. Can do whatever.
Piper: You may be grown and independent. But that doesn't mean you should be disrespectful to your mother like that. I thought we could talk it out. To change back to who you were. But... Whatever corrupted has made you gone too far.
Melinda: As I said before. Not corrupted. I can help you feel the same way I do too. Remember how nice it felt being evil when Aunt Prue was turned evil through an evil marriage.
Piper: Yea. It was good. But after, I felt it wasn't me. One day, you'll fight through whatever is making you act like this. And realize the same.
Melinda: I doubt it. The old Melinda is now gone. Only evil exists in this heart now.
Piper: I don't believe that.
[Piper then comes closer to Melinda and grabs her face gently, eyes staring in her daughter's eyes.]
Piper (cont'd): Mel. My caring and kind daughter. Come back to the real you. I can help you.
[Sobbing tears come out through Piper's eyes to try and get her daughter to feel compassion. The good in Melinda starts to fight through a bit as she moves one her arms to touch gently Piper's shoulders.]
Melinda: Mom! I....
Piper: There she is. My darling.
Melinda: No!
[Melinda's eyes glow red.]
Melinda (cont'd): ENOUGH! Get out of my office.
[Melinda uses Black Telekinetic Orbing to toss Piper hard like with Billie enough for her to fly out of the door. And then uses her powers again to close the door herself.]
Melinda (cont'd): Now back to work.

Piper: Ugh. That hurt. I can't believe it. My Melinda has turned evil.
[Graham is walking by and notices Piper on the floor.]
Graham: Mrs. Halliwell. Are you alright?
Piper: I'm fi. Argh.
Graham: Doesn't look like it? Come on. Let me help you up and take you to the hospital to check you out.
Piper: I'm fine. Just shake it off.
Graham: You never know. Come on. Mrs. Halliwell. You're not getting any younger.
Piper: Are you referring to me as "old"?
Graham: Not exactly. But at this age. It's best to check this out after a fall like this.
Piper: Alright. Good point. Help me up.
Graham: As you wish.
[Graham then helps Piper up as he helps her walk away from the office guiding her steps.]

UNDERWORLD. DARK TOWER. DAY
Brooks: Boss. You came to save me. Convinced Hiram. Right?
Kaden: Not exactly. I came to right your thoughts. And convinced Hiram to reveal the location of where you are.
Brooks: It doesn't need to be righted. I want vengeance. Their houses must burn.
Kaden: You are like me. But vengeance isn't everything. It's because of me. You were my first. Took all of it. Nowhere to balance it.
Brooks: It is balanced. I don't know what you are talking about.
Kaden: I asked an Alchemist to prepare something for you. It will change your mind. Because you are the perfect leader for the Griffins. And I can't let these vengeance inside you take away what is meant for you.
Brooks: Boss. Don't. You can't just take it away.
Kaden: I'm not actually. Just repressing it. So it doesn't overtake your true goals of what I wanted all of you to be. Just assassins loyal to their causes. And not for personal reasons.
Brooks: Really. Boss. You were the same. It's because of your vengeance. You created me and the others.
Kaden: Good point there. But this rash decision will get you killed. And they will go after the others. I know you care much for Hiram. He's the closest and knows you well more than the others.
Brooks: You're right. Boss. I'm sorry. Now please. Return my powers.
Kaden: Alright. One last chance.
Brooks: Of course.
Kaden: Let's get you out of here.

Parker (on phone): I'm sorry about what happened with Melinda. Can't believe she attacked you. And that leaves you...
Piper (on phone): Stuck in this hospital. Doctor won't allow me to be relieved until the next day. And that leaves you Uncle Leo, whom has no powers to protect Jerri. I need you to go there.
Parker (on phone): I don't know. Aunt Piper. We got a trial to get to soon and not sure. How long it takes.
Piper (on phone): Well. Then. Just go through and try to get a premonition. Just hope things turn alright.
Parker (on phone): Okay. Aunt Piper. Stay well.
Piper (on phone): I'm fine. Dang doctor.
Parker (on phone): Whatever you say. Alright. I'll stop by and try to get a premonition.
Piper (on phone): Thanks. Parker.

Brooks and Hiram are together drinking some whiskey at the counter. Rilas then comes over to them.
Rilas: My god. It's been a while. Brooks. Hiram.
Brooks: Well. We had to go in hiding for a while. Now it's time to return.
Hiram: To make our mark again.
Rilas: And of course. Whiskey.
Brooks: Of course.
Hiram: We may be assassins. But can still be classy.
Rilas: Well. I'll leave you two be.
Brooks: So back to enjoying.
Hiram: Yes. Good to get into the mindset before our mission.
Brooks: Look. I'm sorry. Hiram. For acting reckless. We may have a lot but not as much as their family.
Hiram: Yes. We must do things slowly. Step by step. Besides if we succeed.
Brooks: And this baby grows up. And we mold this girl. Can turn it against her own family. And it can achieves what I wanted. True vengeance.
Hiram: Yes. Cheers to that.
Brooks: Yep. Cheers.

Leo: Parker. What are you doing here?
Parker: Aunt Piper called me. She's stuck at the hospital and can't come help. And sent me. But I couldn't. But agreed to see if I can activate a premonition so she feels better.
Leo: I see. It will be fine. Some potions are made. And Jerri knows to set up her shield when in danger. And these crystals.
Parker: But is it enough. Come on. You're mortal. Now.
Leo: Just because I'm mortal now. Doesn't mean I can't just sit around and do nothing.
Parker: I understand. Let's see. Maybe I touch you. Something will trigger.
Leo: Give it a try.
Parker: Alright. Uncle Leo.
[Parker touches Leo. She waits a few seconds and nothing happens.]
Leo: Anything?
Parker: Sorry. Uncle Leo. Done what I can. Have to go. Stay safe.
Leo: I understand. You stay safe too.

[Parker is in awe.]
Parker: Oh no. I can't leave you here. Uncle Leo.
Leo: You saw something. But you have to.
Parker: I'll tell Collin. He'll understand. This is a family emergency. Aunt Piper sent me to make sure you're okay.
Leo: But Parker.
Parker: No buts. I'm going outside a bit to call the others. You need extra protection.
Leo: It's really not necessary.
Parker: I know. But I promised Aunt Piper.
Leo: Alright. Hard to argue with her. I'll stay here.
Parker: You better. I'll be back soon.
[Parker walks out of the room. Leo walks over near the crib.]
Leo: I wonder what she saw. Guess with your power. It's not enough to protect me. I feel so useless. Grr.

Cloaked Griffin Witch #2: We don't take orders for you.

[Gideon smirks.]
Gideon: It's just you. Where's the wonder of the beautiful wife?
Leo: Occupied. It's just me.
Gideon: This is easier than I thought. Why don't you be a good boy and just let me do what I need to do. And no one gets hurt.
Leo: Feel free.
[Leo steps away.]
Gideon: This seems too easy. You're up to something. Aren't you. Leo.
Leo: How could I? I'm a lowly mortal now with no powers.
Gideon: Good point. Fine. Then I'll raise your granddaughter well.
Leo: We'll see.
[Gideon growls. He then now throws Leo with his Telekinesis against the couch.]
Gideon: Insulence. I know you're up to something.
Leo: Ugh. That hurt. I'm not. Gideon.
Gideon: Then why are you acting so calm.
Leo: Jerri is now sleeping. I don't want to wake her.
Gideon: I know you well. Leo.
Gideon (to the Griffin Witches): Enter now!
Leo: Enter who? So you weren't...
Gideon: Of course. And let you do the same before to me. No thanks.
[The Cloaked Brooks, Hiram, and Harrison, and the other Cloaked Griffin Witches move up to where the crib but an energy burst zaps them knocking them back, blowing away the cloak, sounding the magical alarm awaking Jerri and she puts the orb shield up.]
Brooks: That was...
Hiram: He wasn't alone either.
Harrison: Yea.
[Gideon rolls his eyes at Leo.]
Gideon: I knew I was right. Release the barrier or else.
Leo: Or else what?
Gideon: I'll make you a widow. Leo Wyatt.
[Parker uncloaks herself along with Gabriel, PJ, and Dane.]
Parker: That's not happening.
Gabriel: And you shouldn't be messing with someone who has an Angel as an Ally.
PJ: Or a furious pregnant lady.
Gideon: You think this will stop me.
[Gideon ORBS over to Leo is summoning an athame and stabs in the stomach as he falls to the ground.]
Leo: Ugh.
Parker: No! That was.
Gideon (to Brooks/Hiram/ Harrison/Other Griffin Witches): Deal with them. I'll finish Leo.
Brooks: Got it. Die witches.
Hiram: And others.
Harrison: You're dealing with us today.
Griffin Witch #1: Yea.
Griffin Witch #2: We're a bigger group.
[They all send energy bolts toward Parker, Gabriel, PJ, and Dane. Gabriel is able to raise his hand up freezing the whole room, the energy bolts, except Parker, PJ, and Dane.]
Gabriel: I warned them. Parker. Take the crib to safety. And PJ and Dane. Get Leo over to Wyatt or Chris. To heal. Or else he might bleed to death.
Parker: But what about you. Babe.
Gabriel: Remember. I'm an Angel. Impervious to magical powers.
Parker: Just be careful. They could blindside you. These Griffins are just like Phoenix Witches.
Gabriel: Don't worry. Once I leave the room, they'll unfreeze and won't know what happened.
Parker: Alright. See you then.
Gabriel: Sure.
[Parker goes over to the crib and kicks the crystals away.]
Parker: I'll take you to safety. My darling niece.
[She touches the crib containing Jerri BEAMING out with it. PJ and Dane head over to Leo.]
Dane: Let's take this athame out. I'll hold my hand over his wound. And you beam us out.
PJ: Agreed.
[Dane pull out the athame from the stomach and throws it off to the side. The blood bleeding is still frozen in place. PJ then BEAMS the three all out. Gabriel then exits the room SPARKLING out as the room unfreezes as he leaves. The energy bolts hit the wall instead.]
Gideon: What the! I lost....
Brooks: They're gone.
Hiram: I shouldn't have gone for that Angel only.
Harrison: It's fine. There's another day.
Gideon: There's not. But I can give them a message.
Griffin Witch #1: And what is that?
Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Gideon: The Book of Shadows is probably still in the attic. And we don't apply to those evil rules.
[Gideon ORBS out.]
Hiram: Do we follow him? Brooks.
Brooks: Don't think so. Could be a trap.
Hiram: Yea. Gideon is angered and not thinking straight. They probably found time to hide the Book of Shadows away knowing we came.
Harrison: So now what? Boss. Do we go with the other mission? To end the others.
Griffin Witch #1: Yea.
Griffin Witch #2: Whatever you order. We'll follow.
Brooks: It's risky. But now it's nighttime. We can attack them separately.
Hiram: What about those Shadow Demons who are basically protecting them now?
Brooks: They can't watch at any moment of their lives. Each of them are living their real life. Time to separate and attack them.
Hiram: You got it boss.
[Hiram and Harrison WHIRL out first. Griffin Witch #1, Griffin Witch #2, and the other Griffin Witches do the same. Brooks then WHIRLS out finally.]

PJ: Thankfully Wyatt was working late.
Dane: We got him to Wyatt just in time.
PJ: Now what?
Dane: Rest. All that's going on today was not good for the baby.
PJ: Yea. At least things are solved. Lady Brigitte has reconsidered. And the plan is still on for your uncle to go there to iron some details till it is the right time.
Dane: Yea. I don't have to move away yet. I want to be here for when our child is born.
[Dane kisses PJ's belly. Hiram then WHIRLS in behind them.]
Hiram: Well. Time to finish the job I couldn't before. With Rila back then.
[The two then turn around.]
PJ/Dane: You!
Hiram: And this time. I will win this battle.
[Dane throws an energy ball toward Hiram. He WHIRLS out and appears behind Dane, and starts power stripping Dane.]
Dane: Aaah!
PJ: Stop hurting my husband.
[PJ waves her hand using Telekinesis throwing Hiram off but the wound remains as he has not finished the stripping. He is bumped against the wall.]
Dane: Aah!
PJ: Time to feel the cold.
[PJ then shoots a stream of ice towards Hiram but he WHIRLS out and then back behind to start the power stripping but as before, a peach colored energy shield blasts him back knocking him against the wall. Hiram then glares back at her.]
Hiram: This isn't over.
[Hiram WHIRLS out.]
PJ: What a good baby.
[PJ then runs over to Dane.]
PJ (cont'd): Dane. You're hurt.
Dane: I'll be fine. We just need a Phoenix Witch. Chris' girlfriend.

Melinda: Your boys must got guts to go against us.
Felicia: And our partner.
Lyrian: No one dares to mess with the princesses of evil.
Griffin Witch #1: We had no idea.
Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Melinda: I'll give you all a deal. Our coven is considered the only ones to have ways to attain antidotes to cure the poison by these arrows.
Felicia: If... You send a message to your boss. But don't reveal our identities to him.
Melinda: Or else. We'll do the same. Again. And you all won't be saved.
Griffin Witch #1: We accept.
Felicia: Great. Unfortunately. You all won't all be saved.
Melinda: That's right. Too many people keeping secrets. One will tell eventually.
Griffin Witch #1/Griffin Witch #2/ Other Griffin Witches: No!
Felicia: Love. That reaction of that one.
[Melinda goes closer to Griffin Witch #1 and grazes his face gently.]
Melinda: We'll keep this one. Once he is healed, we can play with him.
Griffin Witch #1: You evil bitches. That's wasn't the deal.
Melinda: We're evil. Don't really abide on the full deal.
Felicia: Alright. It's time. Lyrian. Move the others.
Lyrian: As you wish.
[Lyrian brings the other ones together and BLACK ORBS out with them. Melinda then moves the arrow out with Black Telekinetic Orbing and begins to move her hand, healing him, a goldish and darkish blue glow.]
Griffin Witch #1: How? Evil can't...
Melinda: I stole a whitelighter's power. Of course.
Felicia: And we stole other powers. Too. So we can manipulate others to our will. Just like you. Handsome. What is your name?
Griffin Witch #1: Heck with it. Now that I am healed. Getting out of here.
[Griffin Witch #1 gets ready to WHIRL out but Melinda waves her hand interrupting the teleportation.]
Melinda: Trying to pull the quick on us.
Felicia: Knew men like this would be stubborn.
[Felicia then punches the lights out of him. He is knocked out. Melinda then checks his pulse. It seems he is breathing.]
Melinda: It's fine. Time to convert another one to our cause. And then it's time to go home.
Felicia: Yea. But if these assassins went after you. The others must have been targeted too. Maybe you should...
Melinda: No. They are not my family anymore. Mother will probably relay to the others. I couldn't care what happens with them.
Felicia: Alright. Babe. Then let's do this. Make our army bigger.
[Melinda conjures the athame and begins to inscribe the mark as the camera moves it....]

JACOBSON LAW FIRM. DANIEL'S OFFICE. DAY
[The door is closed as Dane walks in. Daniel is seen sitting on his desk.]
Daniel: Welcome. This is a surprise. You're always too busy with work. As am I.
Dane: I decided to take some leave to think things through.
Daniel: Please come sit down and talk. I know it seems like something serious.
Dane: Okay. Uncle Daniel.
[Dane takes a seat.]
Daniel: What's going on? Talk to me.
Dane: I don't know how.
Daniel: You're just like your father. Not knowing how to express emotions or feelings well. Till PJ came into your life.
Dane: Yes. Anyway. I wanted to ask. Did you know anything of my mom? I assume dad killed her. And such.
Daniel: Not much really. Just that your father saw her as someone to breed with and such. Like you used to do. Remember.
Dane: I know. And my past came back to haunt me.
Daniel: Ah. That's unfortunate.
Dane: Yea.
Daniel: So spit it out.
Dane: It turns out my mortal side of the family. My mother. Comes from royalty. I'm basically considered the next heir to a province known as Eclary.
Daniel: This is great news. Why do you seem saddened about it?
Dane: Because PJ is not fit to travel. And if I go there, and take on my responsibilities as the heir. Might not be able to return. For our child's birth.
Daniel: I see. But what does PJ think about it?
Dane: PJ understands and doesn't want this opportunity to go to waste.
Daniel: That's mighty kind of her. Shows she truly loves you.
Dane: I know. Just don't want to leave on her own and such. What if there, I get back to my old ways again? The power gets to me and I start manipulating woman again. And leave PJ with no husband and her baby without a father.
Daniel: It won't come to that. You changed a lot. And truly love her.
Dane: Thanks. Uncle Daniel.
Daniel: Maybe there's a way to postpone this heir stuff till the baby is born. And PJ can travel.
Dane: My Great Aunt says it's urgent. They don't trust my other relatives. It seems things keep ending up wrong.
Daniel: How do you know things won't turn wrong for you? Like those others.
Dane: You have a good point. Uncle.
Daniel: Thank you. Anyway. Maybe I can talk to her. I'm a lawyer and know how to convince people.
Dane: Okay. You can give it a try. But this lady is a stubborn woman as she said my mother was.
Daniel: I dealt with much like that. Come on, I'm an esteemed lawyer. Done this for centuries.
Dane: Alright. I'll put my trust in you. Will send you her number. As for now, I want to spend more time with my wife till I figure things out.
Daniel: And I got a meeting to prepare in about two hours. Later then.
Dane: Thanks for the talk. Uncle Daniel.
Daniel: No problem.

Coop: Well. If you think that is too much. I made fresh squeezed orange juice also. The jug is on the counter.
PJ: Dad...
Coop: Don't dad me. Start on the food. And then for the pancakes.
PJ: Okay. Dad.
[PJ begins to eat when Dane walks into the kitchen.]
Dane: Started already without me? Dear.
PJ: Well. Darling. Eating for two here.
Dane: I see. Sorry.
Dane (to Coop): I assume you have a plate ready for me also?
Coop: Or course. I'll get it ready. Make sure you're here to get it fresh and things.
Dane: Alright. Can I help with anything?
Coop: Maybe get some cups and move the orange juice jug nearby the food.
Dane: Of course. Where are the cups? I don't know this house well.
Coop: Left far top cabinet.
Dane: Thanks.
[Coop nods and begins to cook to whip up a plate ready for Dane. Dane then goes to the cabinet as instructed and grabs some cups. And then places it down on the counter area under. He then closes the cabinet door and brings the cups over and have the jug nearby. He then joins next to PJ.]
PJ: So how was the talk with your uncle?
Dane: Decent.
PJ: Great.
[Dane then starts to pour the orange juice into three glasses. Coop now finishes and now holds two plates, with one for Dane, laying in front of him and himself, sitting next to PJ.]
Coop: Bon apetit.
Dane: Thanks. Mr. Halliwell. You're the best father in law ever.
Coop: And you're my favorite son-in-law.
Dane: Oh. Mr. Halliwell. I'm your only one now.
Coop: Come. Let's eat.
Dane: Yep. PJ already started on most of it.
PJ (mouth full): Two stomachs here. Yum.

Wyatt: You two?
Arika: I assume you two are the princesses of evil that all of us are looking for.
Melinda: Yes.
Felicia: Correct.
[Their voices are heard to be disguised.]
[Melinda then takes her mask off along with Felicia, revealing their identities to the two.]
Wyatt/Arika: No!
Melinda: Yes. It was me who tried to lure you. But was interrupted.
Felicia: And we were in charge of sending those darklighters so future witches can be lay prey to us. And we can guide them.
Wyatt: This is just a dream.
Arika: They can't be.

Wyatt: That was so real. Do you think what we saw was true?
Arika: It's a possibility. We haven't usually shared dreams.
Wyatt: Or it could be Wargarias' doing. Sending evil imposters like what happened to my cousin, Tamora.
Arika: Yea. You got a good point there. And those evil copies of PJ and Dane you told me about.
Wyatt: Yes. At least we know their identities. That means our Melinda and Felicia are stuck somewhere.
Arika: Yes. But let's rest a bit more. That dream was....
Wyatt: Yea.

Felicia: And with that. We'll become basically the Queens of Evil.

Chris: I have tried. Helena. So sorry. But my sister. Just like her mother. Stubborn as hell.
Helena: Chris. Language. Remember. You're an Elder.
Chris: Yes. Sorry. Melinda specifically said she's tired of being the lackey of such "Elders."
Helena: No. That's not the Melinda we all know.
Chris: I know. And also she hasn't got in touch with her first charge for a while. Rich. He's been asking. From what I heard from Billie.
Helena: I see.
Chris: I don't know what happened after honeymoon. Or maybe the trauma after that event before the official wedding of Melinda and Felicia. She's been acting weird. And not herself.
Helena: You don't think anything is weird about Felicia. Maybe they could get her off the enchantment. And she maybe possibly was influenced by that Sylvia again.
Chris: Possibly. I heard that Sylvia is close with those two now. Something is up.
Helena: We been watching. And got blocked somewhere.
Chris: So you have no idea what happened either.
Helena: Yea.
Chris: Other strange things. It is my rival CEOs of the other companies have changed their minds by not putting bad gossip on me.
Helena: That is strange. What if someone got involved and secretly helped you.
Chris: Possibly. But who. I asked Archibald. And he had no idea about it.
Helena: Maybe it could have been Melinda. You said she has changed. Maybe have threatened them.
Chris: That's a bit farfetched. She may seem not herself right now. But threatening someone. Not her forte.
Helena: It's just a theory. Maybe you can help us find out.
Chris: I'll try. But doubt Melinda will say anything.
Helena: Doesn't hurt to try. Remember. We getting low on whitelighters or whitelighter-witches to be guardians for new charges. Due to the couple of weeks ago of those darklighter attacks. Losing witches to the dark side. Anastasia was one of our best. And...
Chris: Sorry about that. That's unfortunate. But I must go.
Helena: As do I.

Sandy: Lies. Time to deal some hurt.

Jean/ Nala: Ouch!

Sandy: You gals learned your lesson?
Jean (still in fear): Yes.
Nala (still in fear): Yea.
Sandy: Great. But I have another power and want to mess with your mind.
[Sandy begins to move her hand to Jean's when Davis ORBS in with Melanie.]
Melanie: A witch is not getting corrupted this time.
Davis: Yea.
Sandy: Corrupted? What are you talking about?
Melanie: We're talking about who's hiding. Show yourself. Anastasia.
[Davis then goes over near Jean and Nala and then glances back over to Melanie.]
Davis: I'll take care these girls and come back. And be careful while I'm gone.
Melanie: You got it.
[Davis then ORBS out with Jean and Sandy. Anastasia then uncloaks herself.]
Anastasia: Well. If it isn't that witch that ruined my plans with punishing that criminal.
Melanie: Back at you gal. If it isn't that witch that bit my whitelighter. So we're even.
Anastasia: Sandy is mine. I was close. Those bullies deserved punishment.
Melanie: There's other ways. You can't just use a witch who have just came upon her powers and treat her like that.
Anastasia: I can do whatever. Don't follow those stupid rules anymore.
Anastasia (to Sandy): They needed punishment. Right?
Sandy: Yes. They deserved it. It's so nice to not hide my powers.
Melanie: Don't listen to her. That's wrong. You could have went to the staff.
Anastasia: They wouldn't do anything. As Sandy told me herself, her roommates were protected. And whatever she told.
Melanie: It's still not the way.
Anastasia: Such a goodie-two-shoes witch. Abiding to those rules. Once you want something done to someone, do it yourself.
Melanie: I'm warning you. Since you're evil now, I can blow you up.
Anastasia: Or I can poison you. We'll see who's faster.
[Anastasia then conjures up a darklighter's crossbow.]
Anastasia (cont'd): Wall!
[She then uses her black telekinetic orbing to throw Melanie against a wall. And the grabs Sandy forcefully.]
Anastasia (cont'd) (staring over at Melanie): Sandy is mine now. Witch. Have fun. Hanging.
[Anastasia then BLACK ORBS out with Sandy.]
Melanie: No! Not again! This new power of sensing is useless if I can't save all of them.
[Davis ORBS back in and runs over to Melanie.]
Davis: Where's Sandy? And Anastasia.
Melanie: I lost them. It's only with her that I can't track as well.
Davis: Remember. Melanie. She's different from the other that were corrupted to influence witches to the evil side.
Melanie: I know. Anastasia was considered. She knew all of the tricks for everything back then.
Davis: Yes. Now come on. On to the next mission. We'll save the next one.

Brooks: Sorry. Had another job. Couldn't resist.
Gideon: I see. Anyway. Had some thought.
Brooks: About what? Sir.
Gideon: Approaching on how to get revenge on Leo Wyatt. I realized it's foolish to go after his progeny and the rest of those Chosen Ones due to their growing powers and now that son of his, is an Elder.
[Gideon pauses a bit.]
Gideon: That Chris. Never like his other future. And don't like this version of him either. But anyway.
Brooks: Anyway. What?
Gideon: I decided to go for his grandkids. They are not as powerful as their parents. And it will an easy target.
Brooks: Are you sure about that? From what I learned. They do have powers. To protect themselves. I remember the stories of how Wyatt, as a toddler, foiled your plans to kill him.
Gideon: Yes. I remember. But there's ways. Our species have the ability to glamour like demons. I can disguise myself so those kids can trust me.
Brooks: Come on. They'll know who their parents. And will sense something is up.
Gideon: Good point. Got any better plans.
Brooks: We all know that manor protects from any evil for coming in. And us Griffin Witches are like the Phoenix Witches, we're not considered evil and in between. Let us grab them for you.
Gideon: That's not a bad idea. But I know their grandparents might be in the manor.
Brooks: Come. We been doing this for a while. We have ways to weaken all obstacles in our way.
Gideon: Yes I heard. But I don't want Leo dead. I just want him to suffer. As for his darling wife, if she gets involved. Deal with her as you wish.
Brooks: Of course. Sir. We'll do the attack tonight. Those grandparents will be asleep by then. Along with the parents.
Gideon: Sounds good to me. And I'll keep laying low for now.

Maya: I don't you should go for the young ones. It's mostly...
Aquila: Hey. I'm not that old.
Maya: I know. But still. P3 is a club that is not meant for your age group. Aquila. You'll figure something out.
Aquila: I hope so.

Aquila: No thanks. Maya. I'm done with being leader. It's time for the new generation to rise. You could have too.
Maya: I know. But my future is meant to be with Chris. As for what occupation that leads me into, we'll see.
Aquila: For now. You're okay with being a housewife. You used to be exciting.
Maya: I know. Falling in love changed that. And after Lila. And also being a mother changes your perspective.

Leo (on phone): I know. They could find a way to get through it. Like how Bianca was able to with Chris.
Wyatt (on phone): And also strange. That those Shadow Demons are on our side now.
Leo (on phone): Yea. At first, those princess of evil wanted to go after our family. And now they use these Shadow Demons to protect us. What is their game here?
Wyatt (on phone): Who knows? Something devious. Maybe to hold power over us. They help us. Forced to do something in return.
Leo (on phone): Yea. Possibly. And also there was something in the matter. My eyes could be fooled.
Wyatt (on phone): What is it? Dad.
Leo (on phone): I saw Gideon across from the street when walked past the window to get out to the front door to get mail. And when I came out, he was gone.
[Wyatt's eyes go wide in shock.]
Wyatt (on phone): Gideon. The one who kept trying to kill me as a kid.
Leo (on phone): Yes. That same one. I vanquished him to change both alternate worlds back to normal. How is he still alive?
Wyatt (on phone): What mom said?
Leo (on phone): That I could be seeing things. From stress and such. Watching over Jerri and Lila sometimes. And work.
Wyatt (on phone): Mom may be right. But we really need to figure out who put the bounty on us. The Power of Eight.
Leo (on phone): Also. You know what's going on with Melinda? The Elders paid a visit to me. Said she's not answering call from charges anymore since returning from the honeymoon.
Wyatt (on phone): Nope. Dad. Have no idea. Maybe Melinda is just tired of balancing both lives. She's just pushing her calls out.
Leo (on phone): That's hard. When we got together. I couldn't ignore my calls. And you know your mom and I.
Wyatt (on phone): I know. Womb me switched your powers with you and mom.
Leo (on phone): Exactly. Something is up with Melinda. Because the Elders are getting worried. This is bad.
Wyatt (on phone): I think Chris will figure out a way. He's the more rational one over the three of us besides Mel. After all, he's an Elder. Probably Helena already asked him.
Leo (on phone): Possibly. Don't worry. We'll do our best to keep our granddaughter safe.
Wyatt (on phone): Thanks.
Leo (on phone): No problem.

Rilas: That woman doesn't stop. Super stubborn just like that mortal mortal of the infamous Dazos.
Phillip: Before I thought he was the right one. But he has changed. Gone to get the good side. Been convincing Lady Eleanor. To speed off the process.
Rilas: Yea. Of course. Now Dane is soon to be a father. He wants to postpone the decision.
Phillip: I can't have that.
[Phillip's eyes now turn to a demonic yellow color revealing his true self.]
Rilas: You know. This woman may be mortal but she's smart. Soon it will be found out that you are the Phillip she knows.
Phillip: That Phillip is gone. I killed him years ago along two of those " heirs" that were meant to rule Eclary. And then just kept manipulating the rest.
Rilas: And now what's the problem.
Phillip: The ex-half demon now lawyer. I have to get to find a way to get rid of him. Or prevent that man from convincing Eleanor to postpone the heir rituals that is needed for Dane to take over.
Rilas: I have some connections. But you know. It always requires a might price. "Phillip."
Phillip: With this identity I have taken, I can provide the price. Whatever you need.
Rilas: Great. I'll be on my break soon. And we can talk at a private table.

Daniel: I'm glad you found some time to meet me. I know you're a busy woman.
Lady Brigitte: Yes. Somehow. Now let's cut to the chase. Mr. Jacobson. You said it was urgent when I got the message.
Daniel: It is. Anything for my nephew. And my future niece in law.
Lady Brigitte: As an esteemed lawyer as yourself, you think it's wise to use your talents to get into personal matters.
Daniel: I know. But I want to talk with you not as a lawyer. But as a caring uncle. But I did dab in a few things about the process about getting into the status of royalty either married or inherited into.
Lady Brigitte: There's no convincing me. Mr. Jacobson. Things are urgent as my loyal assistant says.
Daniel: Look. That assistant may have given you guidance. But is it the right decision to rush this. Dane is about to become a father. He can't just leave his wife behind like that. If he is unable to return back. Think of the reputation of your country. Its future king abandoning family values.
Lady Brigitte: You provide a good point about that. But I'm getting older. And I feel like there's been a jinx. But all I say stay in this world. Got it.
Daniel: Understood. I know about privacy. Remember. I'm a lawyer.
Lady Brigitte: Lately. None of them last long. Either anger our commoners. Use the money for other things.
Daniel: What's to say that Dane will end up the same way? I say wait.
Lady Brigitte: But Phillip says this will be the best decision. And I might not live that long.
Daniel: I see. Maybe I can help figure it out. Instead of my nephew accompanying you back to Eclary, I'll join you. Besides I work too much anyways. And I got my vacations days built up.
Lady Brigitte: That's not necessary. The paperwork is good. I just need Dane.
Daniel: Is it really? Remember. You know I'm a very esteemed lawyer.
Lady Brigitte: Alright. Guess it's hard to say no with you.
Daniel: Great. I'm glad you understand. I want my nephew to get to know his son better. To have the same family I have no. I had a tortured childhood. Just like my nephew.
Lady Brigitte: Oh really. That's why this issue is important to you.
Daniel: Yes. I think we're all good. Just send me the details and I'll see you whenever you need to return to Eclary.
Lady Brigitte: I will.
Daniel: Good day. M'am.
Lady Brigitte: Good day. Mr. Jacobson.

Chris: Mel. I never seen you act like that before. Towards the Elders.
Melinda: I'm more mature now. And that's how mom was. Remember. They wanted mom and dad and separated because it was against the rules.
Chris: But they understood later.
Melinda: Whatever. Chris. Head back to your proud company.
Chris: I will. And can whenever. Archibald will done fine for a while while I have this talk with you.

Dane: Really? PJ darling.
PJ: Yea. Of course. Despite the struggles and such. We'll always found our way together.
Dane: You're right. If I hadn't met you, I wouldn't have seen the right perspective like my uncle did. Love is not weakness.
PJ: Yes.
Dane: Also. Should we figure out a name?
PJ: In due time.

Brooks: I am. As you called. Boss.
Kaden: How's my proud creation doing?
Brooks: Well as always. So what's the issue?
Kaden: The current mission. You Griffin Witches were assigned. I warned you about dealing with those witches.
Brooks: I know. Boss. But this could be the thing. We'll become more known as the ones that hurt your heart. The motivation of our creation. And me. Your first ever. Griffin Witch.
Kaden: I know. But heard stories of him. Gideon is not one that can be trusted.
Brooks: I know. But we have the same goals.
Kaden: And what is that?
Brooks: I too was betrayed by one of them. One of their ancestors. She's the one that made us seem we never existed like those Phoenix Witches.
Kaden: Whom?
Brooks: That Penny Halliwell. After what happened to her husband, she had it out for all of us. Researched about who we are. And as such, we had to go into hiding. And you were our savior. Our wonderful creator whom helped us blend in.
Kaden: All of you are my pride and joy. You especially. Brooks.
Brooks: Thank you. Boss.
Kaden: Just be careful. I don't want what I worked hard to become extinct.
Brooks: It won't. Seems the Elder. I guess ex-Elder has changed his mind.
Kaden: Good then. The mission is cancelled.
Brooks: It's not. Just a different. We failed. Last time. Because as you warned...
Kaden: Yes. Attacking them separate is wise. But they have allies everywhere.
Brooks: Yea. Some of us almost killed. They saw through it. And for some reason...
Kaden: What? Brooks.
Brooks: The Shadow Demons were involved. Saved all of them from being captured.
[Kaden scratches his head in thought.]
Kaden: My god. They are something. Allying themselves with demons.
Brooks: It's not them per say. I don't know if you heard of those princesses of evil who came into power.
Kaden: I have. Heard they were involved with those darklighter attacks in the city. Usually they don't go out in the open like that.
Brooks: Exactly. I heard stories. But maybe...
Kaden: Maybe what?
Brooks: The coven that Michael started has risen again to continue his legacy.
Kaden: Ah yes. Michael. He was great. Before his end. It got disbanded.
Brooks: And now they're back. Ready to make their claim. Anyway. Back on topic. Gideon's new plan.
Kaden: Go ahead.
Brooks: We're going for those kids. Gideon now thinks the better plan to grab the kids of Wyatt and Chris Halliwell.
[Kaden sighs heavily.]
Kaden: Gideon thinks that's a better place. You know they'll go after you all.
Brooks: I know the risk. Boss. But it's all worth making a name for us. Being able to steal from the Warrens.
Kaden: It's a death wish. I forbid from getting you into this mission.
Brooks: Boss. You may be my creator. But not my father or even my mother to tell me what to do.
Kaden: I may not be. But it seems like it. Remember what you said. It it wasn't for me. Penny Halliwell would have made a way to make the Griffin Witches extinct for life.
Brooks: I know. But one need to step up. Grow up. Mature. Spread their own wings.
Kaden: And I have allowed that. And all those pass bounty hunts. With the Shadow Demon. Landon. And now Gideon. Has put you all in danger.
Brooks: As I said. I know the risks. We'll succeed this time.
Kaden: That's what you said last time.
Brooks: We'll be careful this time.
Kaden: Alright then. I guess there's no convincing you. If you excuse me, I have to get back to my usual things.
Brooks: Course. Boss. I'll leave you be.

Fargos: Oh my. Such a defenseless mortal now. David.
Daniel: I made the right choice. What do you want? Fargos. We are just defenseless mortals.
Westley: Uncle Daniel. Why does he call you David? And you a mortal.
Daniel: I'll explain later if we get out of here. Sorry you got involved.
Westley: Uncle. Don't say that. I had to hop in. Aunt Alexis would kill me if something happened to you.
Daniel: Thanks.
Fargos: Well. David. Guess you go by Daniel now. I was hired to convince you to change your mind.
Daniel: Change my mind about what?
Fargos: About getting involved in the heir royal situation. With your other nephew. Dane.
Daniel: Yes. I chose to. Dane is still family. And I don't want that decision to leave his wife and child with the father by the side.
Fargos: The one who hired me doesn't want that. He has better plans. If you go back, the rest of your family will be fine. And this handsome boy. I won't dare put a hair on him.
Daniel: What I know. It's nothing demon related. Just some heir issues. Unlesss...
Fargos: Exactly. The one who hired me is with Lady Brigitte. He's been taking the identity to help guide her decisions.
Daniel: Nothing is going to change my mind.
[Fargos smirks.]
Fargos: Oh really. You know. I know where you wife and children live. If you don't change your mind, they will face a very worst fate.
Daniel: You vile demon. It's all about control. Right? Your hiree wants Eclary for himself. Doesn't he? And my nephew, ruins the plans, if he doesn't do it right away.
Exactly. It must not be postponed. Since you're going to meet a future deadly fate anyway. Here's the plan.
[Fargos pauses a bit.]
Fargos (con'td): Heirs and heirs have come. The one I worked for has manipulated all of them to cause failure. And the same will be for Dane. Also. And once there are no more heirs. He will end Lady Brigitte life and find a way to become the king of the small kingdom and then work higher to partner with other bigger countries and doing the same.
Daniel: That's ambitious. It won't happen.
Fargos: But it will. You're a mortal now. Can't stop anything. And no one knows the real plan.
Daniel: One will. Good will always prevail. I can't let what is meant for my nephew to go into a bad place of ruin.
Fargos: We'll see. I'll give by end of today. If you don't. You know what happens.
[Fargos SHIMMERS out.]
Westley: What the heck. He just vanish away.
Daniel: As I said. I'll explain. If we ever get out of here.
Westley: Jeez. Aunt Alexis told me hints about your past. Didn't realize it was all these craziness. What did he mean by you being just a mortal now?
Daniel: Once we get out of here, I'll tell you everything.
Westley: It sounds unlikely. Just tell me now. You know when we give him what he wants. People like him...
Daniel: Yes. Alright. Fine. Here it is.
[Daniel begins to tell his story as Westley begins to listen.]

MAGIC SCHOOL. HEADMISTRESS' OFFICE. DAY
[Melinda is there with Billie.]
Billie: What a great surprise. You visiting me. And sorry about that alarm. Don't know what's going on with the wards.
Melinda: It's alright. Sometimes magic has its loose ends. Maybe one of the ward spells wasn't casted right.
Billie: I doubt it. Looked over myself each time. Maybe....
Melinda: Maybe what? Headmistress.
Billie: Evil has learned how to manipulate through these walls. From what I heard, demons did take over Magic School at one point.
Melinda: That's one point.
Billie: Maybe. Still. I might look over it some more. As the current Headmistress, and also pretty unexperienced in this title. I cannot let evil take this place so easily. Paige put her trust in me.
Melinda: I understand. Think everyone thought Kevin would have been the choice. Considering he did watch over when Aunt Paige was away.
Billie: I know. What was she thinking?
Melinda: You know her. Always for the underdog. Always believed in the impossible. And had a good feeling about things. I remember the story that she had an inkling that Cole was evil again back then. But no one believed her.
Billie: Yea. But what truly brings you here?
Melinda: I can't come by and visit and see how the new Headmistress is doing.
[Billie cringes.]
Billie: I get it. Paige sent you to keep tabs on me. Right.
Melinda: No. It's just a regular ole visit. And I barely get a chance to see you. Aunt Billie. I mean. Headmistress. You were an important member back then with my mom and aunts back then. Despite some things.
Billie: Yea I know. Was tricked. Had no idea my sister had been manipulated since a child and mind twisted.
Melinda: That was a shame. And you had to...
Billie: It was self-defense. I just...
Melinda: It was instinct.
Billie: Anyway. So Rich has been wondering about you. And others too about your current moodiness.
Melinda: The Elders went to you. Didn't they?
Billie: Yes. They are worried. And your family too. I assume you know that Chris has been pressured a lot. Being an Elder himself.
Melinda: I'm making my own mark here. In the world. I can't be just be focused on the magical world all of the time. And as for Rich, we were just whitelighter and charge. Nothing more.
[Billie rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Billie: Mel. That's not what Rich said about you. You two had a bond. When you were on the evil side, thought dead to the world. You felt broken having to kidnap him.
Melinda: As you said. "Had."
Billie: What really happened to you? After the honeymoon, you totally changed into a new person.
Melinda: This meeting is over. Don't want to be questioned. And the ward had no problem.
[Melinda glares back at Billie and uses Black Telekinetic Orbing to throw Billie out of her seat and against a wall. Her eyes glow red and vanishes in a fading blue colored viper shaped shimmer.]
Billie: My god. I have to tell her family. Melinda got turned and corrupted.
[Billie then recovers herself from being thrown against the wall and rushes out of the office.]

Gideon: Like father. Like daughter. Always was wary of me.
[Leo glares at him.]
Leo: Gideon! I knew I wasn't seeing things.
Gideon: You always had a keen eye. Leo. But not keen enough where you couldn't figure you who was after your son back then.
Leo: You...
Gideon: What happened? Lost your passiveness of when your whitelighter when you "fell from grace"?
Leo: What do you want?
Gideon: Vengeance. For what you did. Leo.
Leo: I had no choice. Gideon.
Gideon: Oh but you did. And now you will pay for choosing that choice. My vengeance will happen. You won't see it coming. Only came to warn you ahead. Leo.

Gwen (on phone): Hey. Wyatt. Did you see that reveal?
Wyatt (on phone): I can't believe this. They want to get us back. By selling something like this.
Gwen (on phone): Don't let this rattle? Wyatt. I know how you are? Considering we dated for a while.
Wyatt (on phone): I know. It's just. Things are like.... I don't know how to explain. Melinda been acting weird according to Chris. And the Elders. And those princesses of evil. And the Griffin Witches have target on me and the rest of siblings and cousins.
Gwen (on phone): I understand. You know my life was normal too till a crazy man got obsessed with trying to end my life.
Wyatt (on phone): At least your life is back to normal. Our family tends to deal with both struggles.
Gwen (on phone): From what I learned, from what those staff said in Magic School. Despite whatever is thrown at them. They'll struggle and survive. Come on. Wyatt. You all done for years. Don't worry about this stupid article.
[Gwen pauses a bit on the phone.]
Gwen (on phone) (cont'd): I can take care of this. Did some research and found out about who is the Editor-In-Chief of this place. Worry about your magazine. After all, remember, you were the one that wanted to spread your wings. When we were dating, you mentioned your Aunt Phoebe begged you a couple of times.
Wyatt (on phone): Yes. And I kept rejecting the offer. But now...
Gwen (on phone): Now what? Wyatt. Come on. I may have been busy and I did check up on your status. Remember that W & C Magazine almost wasn't doing well.
Wyatt (on phone): It was just luck. Who knows when opportunity will come again?
Gwen (on phone): Come on. Wyatt Matthew Halliwell. When has articles like this affect you this much?
Wyatt (on phone): Thanks. Gwen.
Gwen (on phone): No problem. Despite everything. I still see you as a good friend.
Wyatt (on phone): Thanks. And also. How you know the one who started Scandilicious.
Gwen (on phone): As I said. Don't worry about it. Focus on your magazine. Ta ta ta. Gotta go.
[Gwen then hangs up on her side.]
Wyatt: Wait. Gwen. Dang. She hung up.
[Wyatt then scratches his head in though.]
Wyatt (cont'd): She's right. Nothing can push me down.

HALLIWELL'S. THE OFFICE. DAY
[Melinda seems to be deep in thought and just staring blank into the computer screen as Felicia rolls into the office and goes over to her.]
Felicia: What's up? Babe. Have you been in here all this time since the visit to Magic School?
Melinda: What?! Yea. Sorry. I made the worst mistake. Shouldn't have...
Felicia: Have what?
Melinda: I let my emotions get out of control. And my evil side was revealed to the Headmistress. And attacked her.
[Felicia rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Felicia: Mel. My gosh. But it will be fine. It was bound to come out anyway. Wanted it to be later. But...
Melinda: I know. But now Billie will sends news to the family. They'll try and want to cure me.
Felicia: We won't let that happen. I'm sure Wargarias will find a way. This is the best life. Babe. As he said.
Melinda: Yes. That's right.
Felicia: Nothing will make you change your mind to go back to the old mind. Right? Babe.
[Felicia grazes Melinda's face gently.]
Melinda: Right. Also I somehow revealed myself now. Time to cause some havoc. Don't you think? Have our darklighters have their fun again?
Felicia: That's not a bad idea. We're the princesses of evil and also now the Queens of the Darklighters. I guess our group.
Call upon Lyrian. He'll know what to do.
Melinda: Agreed.
[Lyrian BLACK ORBS in with a figure with a black hood cover over the head and hands cuffed in non-magic energy ringed cuffs.]
Lyrian: My princesses.
Melinda: We were just speaking of you. Lyrian.
Lyrian: What an honor. Brought a gift for you. A sort of spy. Saw him looking around.
Melinda: Show me who he is.
Lyrian: As you wish. My princess.
[Lyrian takes the black hood cover off revealing it to be Kevin. He is shocked at the realization.]
Kevin: Melinda! You're one of the princesses of Evil. And...
[Kevin then glances over to Felicia.]
Kevin (cont'd): And you... I had a feeling you were no good.
Lyrian: My my. What a foolish Elder. It was not their own choice. A bit of influence. And they just gave into the evil inside them.
Kevin: So you corrupted them?
[Lyrian smirks.]
Lyrian: I won't answer that. Elder. But I brought. You. My nosy spy. Lurking in the underworld. For them to have you become like us. The rise of our own version of a Dark Elder.
Kevin: They don't exist anymore. Considering what I was told from my other fellows.
Lyrian: They do. Not created this way. But. Very rare to see. Anyway. It's time.
Kevin: I'll never be corrupted.
from my other fellows.
Lyrian: This poison. It is hard to resist. Melinda knows well before. There's only one cure. And I'm not telling you.
[Lyrian CONJURES a dagger in one of his hands. In his other hand, he rips one of the sleeves of Kevin's arm, revealing his bare arm.]
Kevin: Hey. I only get one robe.
Lyrian: I don't care. It's your honor. Melinda. Felicia has done it before many times.
Felicia: Yes I have. It will be great. My love.
Melinda: Alright.
[Melinda walks over to where Kevin and Lyrian is. Kevin stares deeply into her eyes.]
Kevin: Come on. Mel. This is not you. Come back to the light.
Melinda: There's no light in me anymore. And soon will you. Elder. I'll take that dagger.
Lyrian: As you wish.
[Lyrian hands Melinda the dagger. Melinda takes it and goes close to Kevin and readies the dagger's point onto his arm.]
Kevin: As I said. I won't be corrupted.
[Melinda smirks.]
Melinda: We'll see.
Lyrian: You know what to do?
Melinda: Yea.
[Just like in the dream before, Melinda engraves the mark of the
Viper cutting through his skin, as blood is seen in the lining as he screams in pain. She now moves the dagger away to let it set.]
Lyrian: Finally. The incantation.
Melinda: Vipera Transfusio.
[The outline is finished as the blood heals becoming a tattoo mark of the Viper's Mark in dark blue color. A black light envelops him like Melinda before when she had been corrupted by the mark. His sleeve robes that was torn heals back to normal, but now his robes are of to be a dark navy color and his eyes go black and then kneels down.]
Kevin: My princess. I am yo... mu..st re.. Aah!
[Melinda then grazes Kevin's gently.]
Melinda: Don't resist. My new soldier.
[Melinda's eyes glow red. His eyes glows red.]
Kevin: I won't. Sorry.
[Kevin now gives an evil smirk.]
Kevin (cont'd): Long live. My princess. Don't worry. Princess. No one will know about who you two are.
Melinda: Thank you. Welcome to the team. My newest Dark Elder.
Kevin: What is my duty? Princess.
Melinda: To train my new charges. To our new tasks. As Darklighters. And now Dark Elders. Lyrian will show where they are.
Kevin: As you wish.
Lyrian: Don't worry. I'll take good care of this Elder.
Melinda: But one more thing. I need you to set up an attack in the city again. It's time to truly reveal ourselves. I think.
Lyrian: Is it too soon? Princess.
Melinda: It's the perfect time. My family are not foolish. They will figure it out eventually.
Lyrian: As I wish. I'll get the team. And on your orders. Whenever.
Melinda: Sounds good. To me.
Lyrian: Great. Now time to go. Kevin.
Kevin: Yea.
[Lyrian takes Kevin's hand and BLACK ORBS out with him. Felicia looks over to Melinda.]
Felicia: Are you sure about this? Love.
Melinda: I am. It's time. To show what us Darklighters should be. We shall reign. Even better than the Source of Evil.
Felicia: Agreed. Now. Shall we get back to our usual work? This restaurant. Maybe actually what you are meant to on this computer. And I will go back to what I was doing.
Melinda: Yes. No more distractions.
Felicia: Exactly.

Lady Brigitte: I had a feeling. That's not actually bad. And I won't have to take the crown.
Phillip: Why not?
Lady Brigitte: I'm working with a lawyer here. He has a way to postpone that. So things don't turn out like the last ones we found.
Phillip: What about our current lawyer?
Lady Brigitte: I don't trust him. His decisions have led to our last ones going a really horrible path. And I don't want my truest blood going down that path.
Phillip: You never favor from my decisions before. Why now?
Lady Brigitte: I just have bit of perspective now. So I think we can wait for Dane. And let's not rush this.
Phillip: I can't accept this.
Lady Brigitte: You must. Remember. You worked for me.
Phillip: Not exactly. The Phillip you know died a while ago. Think I'll allow to join that lawyer. And I'll continue what I'm meant to do.
Lady Brigitte: What are you talking about? Phillip. Continue what you are meant to do?
Phillip: You won't ever find out.

Daniel: Lady Brigitte?!
Lady Brigitte: Mr. Jacobson?! Where am I? And we're in a cage.
Daniel: I'll explain. Can't believe you got involved too.

Lady Brigitte: Involved with what?
Daniel: A plot by demons.
Lady Brigitte: Demons. What do you mean? Like in the Bible?

Hiram: To what?
Brooks: To burn their homes. They'll have no safe place.
Hiram: You're crazy. Look. Gideon is giving us a good offer.
Brooks: This is where she came from. The one that hurt my heart. Her first home.
[Hiram then realizes something in his mind about Brooks.]
Hiram: Brooks. The whole thing. About the bounty on them. Wasn't Gideon's? You probably just put it in his mind. Knowing he was arrived. You knew his vengeance against the father. This is just wrong.
Brooks: Remember. We're vengeance. Remember. We act more violent than those Phoenixes.
Hiram: I know. But we are still are considered bounty demons. And acting on your own is not the way. And that's why you didn't call the others here. You're hoping I would agree and help you.
Brooks: Exactly. You always knew me so well.
Hiram: You know this is reckless.
Brooks: I don't care. If you won't join me, I can do it myself. Set this place on fire.
Hiram: I can't let you do that.
[Hiram then goes in to make a portal in Brooks' stomach and strips his powers. He then falls to his knees from it.]
Brooks: You traitor!
Hiram: Seems I'll take charge of the mission later today. As for you, Brooks. I know of a place to put you.
Brooks: Where? Somewhere you won't find a way to summon your powers back or even manipulate people.

Dane: Yea.
PJ: I'll go out first. It might take a while.
Dane: Alright. I'll try to be quick.
PJ: Okay. Dear.

Alexis (on phone): I'm getting worried. Your Uncle and my nephew has been missing for hours now. His parents are worried and I'm worried about Daniel.
Dane (on phone): My god. When!
Alexis (on phone): No idea. The interns and the other employees called in. Daniel went missing first. And then got Westley when he went out for a bathroom break.
Dane (on phone): Have you gone to the police for it?
Alexis (on phone): But you know the usual rules. The 48 hour limit. I know you have a way to find your Uncle. I know the history of your family.
Dane (on phone): I'll try my best. But you know. Uncle Daniel gave up his powers. He's not a demon anymore. I can't track him anymore.
Alexis (on phone): You must have another way. Isn't your wife a witch? Heard from what Daniel told me about dealing with witches back then.
Dane (on phone): Sure. Aunt Alexis. I'll ask.
Alexis (on phone): Thank you. Dane.
Dane (on phone): It's no problem. This is what family does.
Alexis (on phone): It's too bad your father never understood.
Dane (on phone): Yea. Gotta go. Then. Have to find them before things goes worst.

Piper: If that doesn't work, I'm enough protection for my granddaughter.
Leo: At least we told Chris about it. Too.
Piper: His side not so worried. Remember. You valued Wyatt more.
Leo: Right. Still. Better to be safe and sorry.
Piper: If anything. Remember. We can just call him.
Leo: You're right. Honey.
Piper: It might be a long day today. So should take turns and such. You can go rest on the couch over there.
Leo: That sounds good. Piper Dear.

Lady Brigitte: Sorry for the wait. Booked the first flight out. And around this time. Stuck in traffic.
Vance: It's alright. Is it just you? Lady Brigitte. To get things started before Mr. Patten arrives to discuss the contract to accept his title.
Lady Brigitte: There's been a change of plans. I wish to take upon this title.
Vance: What?!
Lady Brigitte: I know it's surprising.
Vance: But. You been looking for the right heirs until Mr. Patten, your close blooded than anyone else. Why the change.
Lady Brigitte: Phillip has given me a better perspective. I know more about this kingdom than anyone. And fitting for the job.
Vance: But remember. You're not as young anymore. If something happens, and no heir is recognized.
Lady Brigitte: I know. This castle goes to donation and this kingdom wouldn't exist anymore. Maybe it's better. We're not known in the world. Even Mr. Patten didn't know this country existed.
Vance: You must be really jetlagged and not thinking straight. I say we postponed this meeting for tomorrow. Or whenever it's comfortable.
Lady Brigitte: There's no time but now. Mr. Matten.
Vance: If that is what we wish. Let's get started.
Lady Brigitte: Excellent.
[Lady Brigitte smirks.]
Lady Brigitte (thinking): Easier than I thought. Soon this kingdom will belong to the side of evil. And then. Who knows what's next.
[Vance then opens up his briefcase and grabs the folder of the contract inside and places it in front of Lady Brigitte.]
Vance: I suggest you read a couple of time before accepting it.
[Lady Brigitte glances at it a bit and then faces her direction towards Vance.]
Lady Brigitte: Mr. Matten. I trust your judgement. Just tell me all the areas where I can sign on the dotted line.
Vance: Alright. Then. But one more chance. Got to be sure. Please try to look over again.
Lady Brigitte: As I said. It is not necessary. I'm ready to accept.
[Vance then gets a pen ready for Lady Brigitte and begins to flip the pages of the contract for the first contract when loud knocks are heard outside the door. A group of men begin to shout from outside the door one by one.]
Man #1: Come on out!
Man #2: Fraud and identity theft are illegal anywhere including a small country like this.
Man #3: We're from a special organization that works in congruent with the CIA.
Man #4: And had our agents infiltrate as people close to the people in this castle and the kingdom of this country.
Man #5: Look. The security told us that Lady Brigitte had returned. But we know the truth.
[Vance rolls his eyes at Lady Brigitte.]
Vance: What is going on?
Lady Brigitte: It's just a misunderstanding.
Vance: Are you sure? They appear to have agents that affirm what is said about you. "Lady Brigitte". If that is your real name.
Lady Brigitte: As I said. It's just a misunderstanding. If they get rowdy, I can call security.
Vance: I doubt that would help. These men outside work with the CIA and are possibly higher ranking compared to the security detail.
[Lady Brigitte grumbles.]
Lady Brigitte: Fine. If you won't believe me, I'll take matters into my own hands.
Vance: What do you mean by that?
Lady Brigitte: You'll never find it. Dumb lawyer.
Vance: Dumb lawyer?! Oh my gosh. They are right. I have to turn you in. You're not the real Lady Brigitte.
[Lady Brigitte then GLAMOURS back into Phillip.]
Phillip: Not likely. Guess I'll have to take you and change your mind.
Vance: What?! And you just...
Phillip: Oh I know.
[Phillip then grabs Vance and SHIMMERS out with him. The five men now bust in through the door, in silver like CIA outfits mixed with a police uniform with their guns pointed.]
Man #1: Dang. We lost them.
Man #2: And the lawyer is gone too.
Man #3: But where.
Man #4: There's no way to escape out of here.
Man #5: There may be a secret compartment or something.

Billie: I know. It's hard to believe. Melinda attacked me and I saw her eyes glowed. Don't know what's going on. But maybe evil got to her during the honeymoon even with Elder's watch as they could.
Piper: I'll go talk to her. Melinda usually listens to me.
Billie: I doubt it. She didn't even listen to me.
Piper: We'll see. I'm her mother. We'll see.
Billie: You can try. Just wanted to tell you all the news. But now...
Piper: I know. Get back to Magic School. If Melinda can't be convinced, she will find a way to get back in.
Billie: Yea. Maybe I'll close the portals for the manors now. Just for precaution. And the one near the Golden Gate Bridge also.
Piper: That's a good option.
Billie: Later. Then. Hope you can convince her.
Piper: I hope so too.
Billie: Well then. Good luck.
Piper: Thanks. Let me escort you out too. I need to head out anyway to the car to get to Halliwell's to give a good talk with my daughter.

SUPERNATURAL TASK FORCE HEADQUARTERS. IMPRISONMENT ROOM BUILDING. PHILLIP'S ROOM. DAY
[Phillip is there as an agent, Agent Brahams, a tall grizzly man, with black hair, in his 30's, enters into the room and faces him.]
Agent Brahams: My my. This is a good look on you.
Phillip: Damn you. I can't believe that dumb lawyer was also a spy and got me fooled. It was all an act. Till the right timing.
Agent Brahams: You were fooled. But not by the lawyer. The real lawyer did work with you for a while. Till our secret agents whom infiltrated the work force in the kingdom figured out something was up. Things were off every time a deal with made since about twenty something years ago. So we found a way to meet with the lawyer without your knowledge...
Phillip: But how. I made sure that man was under my watchful eye.
Agent Brahams: This is our agency's job. Created to find a way to do what it is need to be. To maintain balance so corrupt beings like you don't cause trouble.
Phillip: We're building a better future for those foolish mortals. Have you seen how many mistakes they have made over the centuries?
Agent Brahams: That's what they all say. "Phillip."
Phillip: This prison won't hold me long. I will figure out a way to get out of here.
Agent Brahams: That's what the others say too. But have tried. And no success. You'll be stuck here for a while buddy. And whatever plans you had is now foiled.
Phillip: There are others like me. They will pick up what is meant to be. And my plans will come into fruition. He smirks.
Agent Brahams: Unlikely. With our members expanding. Making sure every corner is checked.
Phillip: That's impossible. In the odds. A loose end will happen. And the plans for evil will reign.
Agent Brahams: There's no convincing you. Is there?
Phillip: I have hope.
Agent Brahams: We'll see how hope lasts for you. I'll be back again.
Phillip: Whatever.
Agent Brahams: See you again. Phillip.
[Agent Brahams then exits out of the room. Beeps are heard as the automatic door opens to let him out. Phillip's eyes are serious.]
Phillip: These mechanics won't hold me long. Soon the others will find me and release me from this prison. And evil will continue its duty as necessary.
[Phillip laughs manically as the camera moves as it....]

HALLIWELL'S. THE OFFICE. DAY
[Piper is there in the room heading over to the desk where Melinda is sitting.]
Melinda: This is a surprise. Mother. Sorry for the long wait. I had tons of meetings to get through with a couple of new partners.
[Piper then rolls her eyes at Melinda.]
Piper: Mother?! You never... And what new partners? And have they been approved. Remember. Your dad and I are still considered on the paper, as the word on things.
Melinda: Remember. You two got a new branch. And made me in charge.
Piper: Yes. That is true. In charge. But we're still considered also part owners on the documents of the ownership contract of Halliwell's. Even though. Even though, title wise, you are the manager of Halliwell's.
Melinda: You and dad are barely going about here anymore. Worrying about your favorite grandchild. There's no right for you. Mom. And dad also.
Piper: Goodness. Billie was right. Something has changed. You have been corrupted.
Melinda: You're wrong. I accepted the better self of me. And thanks to that. Those men who bashed about Chris' current title and status don't' dare bother him anymore. Thanks to me.
[Piper widens her eyes in shock.]
Piper: My god. That was your doing? That's why Chris mentioned to me why it was kind of strange. Those rival companies changed their tune.
Melinda: That's right. Mother.
Piper: Melinda Halliwell. Don't "Mother" me in that tone.
Melinda: I'm a grown and independent woman. Can do whatever.
Piper: You may be grown and independent. But that doesn't mean you should be disrespectful to your mother like that. I thought we could talk it out. To change back to who you were. But... Whatever corrupted has made you gone too far.
Melinda: As I said before. Not corrupted. I can help you feel the same way I do too. Remember how nice it felt being evil when Aunt Prue was turned evil through an evil marriage.
Piper: Yea. It was good. But after, I felt it wasn't me. One day, you'll fight through whatever is making you act like this. And realize the same.
Melinda: I doubt it. The old Melinda is now gone. Only evil exists in this heart now.
Piper: I don't believe that.
[Piper then comes closer to Melinda and grabs her face gently, eyes staring in her daughter's eyes.]
Piper (cont'd): Mel. My caring and kind daughter. Come back to the real you. I can help you.
[Sobbing tears come out through Piper's eyes to try and get her daughter to feel compassion. The good in Melinda starts to fight through a bit as she moves one her arms to touch gently Piper's shoulders.]
Melinda: Mom! I....
Piper: There she is. My darling.
Melinda: No!
[Melinda's eyes glow red.]
Melinda (cont'd): ENOUGH! Get out of my office.
[Melinda uses Black Telekinetic Orbing to toss Piper hard like with Billie enough for her to fly out of the door. And then uses her powers again to close the door herself.]
Melinda (cont'd): Now back to work.
[Melinda returns to her work at the desk.]

HALLIWELL'S. OUTSIDE THE OFFICE DOOR. DAY
[Piper is on the floor a few feet from the door.]
Piper: Ugh. That hurt. I can't believe it. My Melinda has turned evil.
[Graham is walking by and notices Piper on the floor.]
Graham: Mrs. Halliwell. Are you alright?
Piper: I'm fi. Argh.
Graham: Doesn't look like it? Come on. Let me help you up and take you to the hospital to check you out.
Piper: I'm fine. Just shake it off.
Graham: You never know. Come on. Mrs. Halliwell. You're not getting any younger.
Piper: Are you referring to me as "old"?
Graham: Not exactly. But at this age. It's best to check this out after a fall like this.
Piper: Alright. Good point. Help me up.
Graham: As you wish.
[Graham then helps Piper up as he helps her walk away from the office guiding her steps.]
[CUT TO]
UNDERWORLD. DARK TOWER. DAY
Brooks: Boss. You came to save me. Convinced Hiram. Right?
Kaden: Not exactly. I came to right your thoughts. And convinced Hiram to reveal the location of where you are.
Brooks: It doesn't need to be righted. I want vengeance. Their houses must burn.
Kaden: You are like me. But vengeance isn't everything. It's because of me. You were my first. Took all of it. Nowhere to balance it.
Brooks: It is balanced. I don't know what you are talking about.
Kaden: I asked an Alchemist to prepare something for you. It will change your mind. Because you are the perfect leader for the Griffins. And I can't let these vengeance inside you take away what is meant for you.
Brooks: Boss. Don't. You can't just take it away.
Kaden: I'm not actually. Just repressing it. So it doesn't overtake your true goals of what I wanted all of you to be. Just assassins loyal to their causes. And not for personal reasons.
Brooks: Really. Boss. You were the same. It's because of your vengeance. You created me and the others.
Kaden: Good point there. But this rash decision will get you killed. And they will go after the others. I know you care much for Hiram. He's the closest and knows you well more than the others.
Brooks: You're right. Boss. I'm sorry. Now please. Return my powers.
Kaden: Alright. One last chance.
Brooks: Of course.
Kaden: Let's get you out of here.
[Kaden takes a key out and unlocks the chains. And then SHIMMERS out with Brooks.]

SAN FRANCISCO MEMORIAL HOSPITAL. PIPER'S BEDROOM. DAY
[Piper is on her phone with Parker.]
Parker (on phone): I'm sorry about what happened with Melinda. Can't believe she attacked you. And that leaves you...
Piper (on phone): Stuck in this hospital. Doctor won't allow me to be relieved until the next day. And that leaves you Uncle Leo, whom has no powers to protect Jerri. I need you to go there.
Parker (on phone): I don't know. Aunt Piper. We got a trial to get to soon and not sure. How long it takes.
Piper (on phone): Well. Then. Just go through and try to get a premonition. Just hope things turn alright.
Parker (on phone): Okay. Aunt Piper. Stay well.
Piper (on phone): I'm fine. Dang doctor.
Parker (on phone): Whatever you say. Alright. I'll stop by and try to get a premonition.
Piper (on phone): Thanks. Parker.
[Piper hangs up the phone and place on the counter.]
Piper: At least that assures me. Hopefully things go well.
[She then sighs heavily and lays back down to relax.]

UNDERWORLD. DEMONIC BAR. DAY
Brooks and Hiram are together drinking some whiskey at the counter. Rilas then comes over to them.
Rilas: My god. It's been a while. Brooks. Hiram.
Brooks: Well. We had to go in hiding for a while. Now it's time to return.
Hiram: To make our mark again.
Rilas: And of course. Whiskey.
Brooks: Of course.
Hiram: We may be assassins. But can still be classy.
Rilas: Well. I'll leave you two be.
Brooks: So back to enjoying.
Hiram: Yes. Good to get into the mindset before our mission.
Brooks: Look. I'm sorry. Hiram. For acting reckless. We may have a lot but not as much as their family.
Hiram: Yes. We must do things slowly. Step by step. Besides if we succeed.
Brooks: And this baby grows up. And we mold this girl. Can turn it against her own family. And it can achieves what I wanted. True vengeance.
Hiram: Yes. Cheers to that.
Brooks: Yep. Cheers.
[Brooks and Hiram clink their glasses and then take a sip. And continue to enjoy their drinks.]

HALLIWELL MANOR. BABY'S ROOM. DAY
[Leo is there continuously watching over Jerri as Parker BEAMS in in front of him.]
Leo: Parker. What are you doing here?
Parker: Aunt Piper called me. She's stuck at the hospital and can't come help. And sent me. But I couldn't. But agreed to see if I can activate a premonition so she feels better.
Leo: I see. It will be fine. Some potions are made. And Jerri knows to set up her shield when in danger. And these crystals.
Parker: But is it enough. Come on. You're mortal. Now.
Leo: Just because I'm mortal now. Doesn't mean I can't just sit around and do nothing.
Parker: I understand. Let's see. Maybe I touch you. Something will trigger.
Leo: Give it a try.
Parker: Alright. Uncle Leo.
[Parker touches Leo. She waits a few seconds and nothing happens.]
Leo: Anything?
Parker: Sorry. Uncle Leo. Done what I can. Have to go. Stay safe.
Leo: I understand. You stay safe too.
[Parker begins to walk away a bit from Leo and begins to BEAM out when a premonition happens.]
[PREMONITION STARTS]
[FLASH TO]
HALLIWELL MANOR.BABY'S ROOM. DAY (SEEMINGLY SOME TIME LATER)
[Parker sees Gideon standing over Leo's bloody body murmuring something. An athame is seen stabbed in Leo's stomach. Gideon comes closer saying something again, and pushes in the weapon more into the stomach, looking like to cause Leo to groan in pain. And then the premonition ends.]
[END PREMONTION]
[FLASH BACK TO]
HALLIWELL MANOR. BABY'S ROOM. DAY (PRESENT)
[Parker is in awe.]
Parker: Oh no. I can't leave you here. Uncle Leo.
Leo: You saw something. But you have to.
Parker: I'll tell Collin. He'll understand. This is a family emergency. Aunt Piper sent me to make sure you're okay.
Leo: But Parker.
Parker: No buts. I'm going outside a bit to call the others. You need extra protection.
Leo: It's really not necessary.
Parker: I know. But I promised Aunt Piper.
Leo: Alright. Hard to argue with her. I'll stay here.
Parker: You better. I'll be back soon.
[Parker walks out of the room. Leo walks over near the crib.]
Leo: I wonder what she saw. Guess with your power. It's not enough to protect me. I feel so useless. Grr.
[Leo clutches his fist in anger and returns to the couch and waits.]

HALLIWELL MANOR. NIGHT
[Gideon is there at the manor in front of it.]
Gideon: Boys. It's time. I can only cloak you all for so long.
Cloaked Griffin Witch #1: We're men.
Gideon: Whatever. Remember. I schedule this bounty. I'm in charge.
Cloaked Griffin Witch #2: We don't take orders for you.
Cloaked Brooks: Enough! Let's go.
[Cloaked Brooks WHIRLS out along with the others.]
Gideon: My goodness. I was...
[GIDEON ORBS out.]

HALLIWELL MANOR. BABY'S ROOM. NIGHT
[Leo is there as Gideon ORBS in. Brooks and the others seemingly did not teleport in the same as him.]
Leo: Gideon. I been expecting you.
[Gideon smirks.]
Gideon: It's just you. Where's the wonder of the beautiful wife?
Leo: Occupied. It's just me.
Gideon: This is easier than I thought. Why don't you be a good boy and just let me do what I need to do. And no one gets hurt.
Leo: Feel free.
[Leo steps away.]
Gideon: This seems too easy. You're up to something. Aren't you. Leo.
Leo: How could I? I'm a lowly mortal now with no powers.
Gideon: Good point. Fine. Then I'll raise your granddaughter well.
Leo: We'll see.
[Gideon growls. He then now throws Leo with his Telekinesis against the couch.]
Gideon: Insulence. I know you're up to something.
Leo: Ugh. That hurt. I'm not. Gideon.
Gideon: Then why are you acting so calm.
Leo: Jerri is now sleeping. I don't want to wake her.
Gideon: I know you well. Leo.
Gideon (to the Griffin Witches): Enter now!
Leo: Enter who? So you weren't...
Gideon: Of course. And let you do the same before to me. No thanks.
[The Cloaked Brooks, Hiram, and Harrison, and the other Cloaked Griffin Witches move up to where the crib but an energy burst zaps them knocking them back, blowing away the cloak, sounding the magical alarm awaking Jerri and she puts the orb shield up.]
Brooks: That was...
Hiram: He wasn't alone either.
Harrison: Yea.
[Gideon rolls his eyes at Leo.]
Gideon: I knew I was right. Release the barrier or else.
Leo: Or else what?
Gideon: I'll make you a widow. Leo Wyatt.
[Parker uncloaks herself along with Gabriel, PJ, and Dane.]
Parker: That's not happening.
Gabriel: And you shouldn't be messing with someone who has an Angel as an Ally.
PJ: Or a furious pregnant lady.
Gideon: You think this will stop me.
[Gideon ORBS over to Leo is summoning an athame and stabs in the stomach as he falls to the ground.]
Leo: Ugh.
Parker: No! That was.
Gideon (to Brooks/Hiram/ Harrison/Other Griffin Witches): Deal with them. I'll finish Leo.
Brooks: Got it. Die witches.
Hiram: And others.
Harrison: You're dealing with us today.
Griffin Witch #1: Yea.
Griffin Witch #2: We're a bigger group.
[They all send energy bolts toward Parker, Gabriel, PJ, and Dane. Gabriel is able to raise his hand up freezing the whole room, the energy bolts, except Parker, PJ, and Dane.]
Gabriel: I warned them. Parker. Take the crib to safety. And PJ and Dane. Get Leo over to Wyatt or Chris. To heal. Or else he might bleed to death.
Parker: But what about you. Babe.
Gabriel: Remember. I'm an Angel. Impervious to magical powers.
Parker: Just be careful. They could blindside you. These Griffins are just like Phoenix Witches.
Gabriel: Don't worry. Once I leave the room, they'll unfreeze and won't know what happened.
Parker: Alright. See you then.
Gabriel: Sure.
[Parker goes over to the crib and kicks the crystals away.]
Parker: I'll take you to safety. My darling niece.
[She touches the crib containing Jerri BEAMING out with it. PJ and Dane head over to Leo.]
Dane: Let's take this athame out. I'll hold my hand over his wound. And you beam us out.
PJ: Agreed.
[Dane pull out the athame from the stomach and throws it off to the side. The blood bleeding is still frozen in place. PJ then BEAMS the three all out. Gabriel then exits the room SPARKLING out as the room unfreezes as he leaves. The energy bolts hit the wall instead.]
Gideon: What the! I lost....
Brooks: They're gone.
Hiram: I shouldn't have gone for that Angel only.
Harrison: It's fine. There's another day.
Gideon: There's not. But I can give them a message.
Griffin Witch #1: And what is that?
Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Gideon: The Book of Shadows is probably still in the attic. And we don't apply to those evil rules.
[Gideon ORBS out.]
Hiram: Do we follow him? Brooks.
Brooks: Don't think so. Could be a trap.
Hiram: Yea. Gideon is angered and not thinking straight. They probably found time to hide the Book of Shadows away knowing we came.
Harrison: So now what? Boss. Do we go with the other mission? To end the others.
Griffin Witch #1: Yea.
Griffin Witch #2: Whatever you order. We'll follow.
Brooks: It's risky. But now it's nighttime. We can attack them separately.
Hiram: What about those Shadow Demons who are basically protecting them now?
Brooks: They can't watch at any moment of their lives. Each of them are living their real life. Time to separate and attack them.
Hiram: You got it boss.
[Hiram and Harrison WHIRL out first. Griffin Witch #1, Griffin Witch #2, and the other Griffin Witches do the same. Brooks then WHIRLS out finally.]
[CUT TO]
PJ'S CONDO. LIVING ROOM. NIGHT
[PJ and Dane BEAM in.]
PJ: Thankfully Wyatt was working late.
Dane: We got him to Wyatt just in time.
PJ: Now what?
Dane: Rest. All that's going on today was not good for the baby.
PJ: Yea. At least things are solved. Lady Brigitte has reconsidered. And the plan is still on for your uncle to go there to iron some details till it is the right time.
Dane: Yea. I don't have to move away yet. I want to be here for when our child is born.
[Dane kisses PJ's belly. Hiram then WHIRLS in behind them.]
Hiram: Well. Time to finish the job I couldn't before. With Rila back then.
[The two then turn around.]
PJ/Dane: You!
Hiram: And this time. I will win this battle.
[Dane throws an energy ball toward Hiram. He WHIRLS out and appears behind Dane, and starts power stripping Dane.]
Dane: Aaah!
PJ: Stop hurting my husband.
[PJ waves her hand using Telekinesis throwing Hiram off but the wound remains as he has not finished the stripping. He is bumped against the wall.]
Dane: Aah!
PJ: Time to feel the cold.
[PJ then shoots a stream of ice towards Hiram but he WHIRLS out and then back behind to start the power stripping but as before, a peach colored energy shield blasts him back knocking him against the wall. Hiram then glares back at her.]
Hiram: This isn't over.
[Hiram WHIRLS out.]
PJ: What a good baby.
[PJ then runs over to Dane.]
PJ (cont'd): Dane. You're hurt.
Dane: I'll be fine. We just need a Phoenix Witch. Chris' girlfriend.
PJ: Right. Maya doesn't work. She watches the mansion and the baby.
[PJ takes Dane and BEAMS out with him.]

HALLIWELL'S. NIGHT. DARK STORAGE ROOM. NIGHT
[The lights are dimmed out. Griffin Witch #1, Griffin Witch #2, and two other are there. Four of them are on the floor, weak from being hit by darklighter arrows. Melinda, Felicia, and Lyrian are there standing around them.]
Melinda: Your boys must got guts to go against us.
Felicia: And our partner.
Lyrian: No one dares to mess with the princesses of evil.
Griffin Witch #1: We had no idea.
Griffin Witch #2: Yea.
Melinda: I'll give you all a deal. Our coven is considered the only ones to have ways to attain antidotes to cure the poison by these arrows.
Felicia: If... You send a message to your boss. But don't reveal our identities to him.
Melinda: Or else. We'll do the same. Again. And you all won't be saved.
Griffin Witch #1: We accept.
Felicia: Great. Unfortunately. You all won't all be saved.
Melinda: That's right. Too many people keeping secrets. One will tell eventually.
Griffin Witch #1/Griffin Witch #2/ Other Griffin Witches: No!
Felicia: Love. That reaction of that one.
[Melinda goes closer to Griffin Witch #1 and grazes his face gently.]
Melinda: We'll keep this one. Once he is healed, we can play with him.
Griffin Witch #1: You evil bitches. That's wasn't the deal.
Melinda: We're evil. Don't really abide on the full deal.
Felicia: Alright. It's time. Lyrian. Move the others.
Lyrian: As you wish.
[Lyrian brings the other ones together and BLACK ORBS out with them. Melinda then moves the arrow out with Black Telekinetic Orbing and begins to move her hand, healing him, a goldish and darkish blue glow.]
Griffin Witch #1: How? Evil can't...
Melinda: I stole a whitelighter's power. Of course.
Felicia: And we stole other powers. Too. So we can manipulate others to our will. Just like you. Handsome. What is your name?
Griffin Witch #1: Heck with it. Now that I am healed. Getting out of here.
[Griffin Witch #1 gets ready to WHIRL out but Melinda waves her hand interrupting the teleportation.]
Melinda: Trying to pull the quick on us.
Felicia: Knew men like this would be stubborn.
[Felicia then punches the lights out of him. He is knocked out. Melinda then checks his pulse. It seems he is breathing.]
Melinda: It's fine. Time to convert another one to our cause. And then it's time to go home.
Felicia: Yea. But if these assassins went after you. The others must have been targeted too. Maybe you should...
Melinda: No. They are not my family anymore. Mother will probably relay to the others. I couldn't care what happens with them.
Felicia: Alright. Babe. Then let's do this. Make our army bigger.
[Melinda conjures the athame and begins to inscribe the mark as the camera moves it....]
[GOES OUT TO BLACK]
