STILL.

CUT TO:

INT. WHITE MANOR - LIVING ROOM - NIGHT

ON COLTON’S RIGHT ARM - The arm is reached out. The sleeve is lifted up. The black marks are visible.

Colton stands before Melinoe who stares seriously at the marks.

COLTON

Have you found any explanation for this?

Melinoe looks at Colton. She shakes her head.

MELINOE

I’m still trying to figure out what all these marks mean.

COLTON

You said that it is because of who I am. A Twice Blessed witch.

MELINOE

Yes. That's my better guess.

Melinoe turns her back on Colton who stares seriously at her.

MELINOE (CONT’D)

But I still don’t know why those marks appeared on your arm.

(turns to him)

Tell me again, what happened when you and Wyatt touched each other?

COLTON

We were thrown back away from each other. Both times. When we shook hands and when he orbed me out to the Underworld.

Melinoe looks away. Colton stares sharply at her.

COLTON (CONT’D)

Mother?

Melinoe looks at Colton and smiles.

COLTON (CONT’D)

Should I be worried?

MELINOE

No. I’m sure whatever it is, we’ll find a way to work it out. But tell me, what are your plans now? You are one of them. They know now that you are, indeed, one of them.

COLTON

Well, I’m giving them time to look for me.

MELINOE

You really hope that one of them seeks for you?

COLTON

(smirks)

She will. Phoebe.

(smiles)

A mother never lets go of her son, right?

Melinoe smiles.

MELINOE

She doesn’t know you.

COLTON

But she will.

MELINOE

And then?

Colton walks over to Melinoe and grabs her arms.

COLTON

And then we’ll focus on what’s meaningful to you.

Melinoe smiles.

COLTON (CONT’D)

I promised you, mother. We’ll get Inferno back to you.

MELINOE

That’s all I always wanted. To dethrone my father and my precious little sister.

COLTON

Count me in.

They stare seriously at each other.

COLTON (CONT’D)

We, together, will win Inferno, and grandpa Hades will regret what he did to you.

ON MELINOE - She smirks.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Serena walks in and stops as she sees Melinoe and Colton there.

SERENA

Did I hear right?

Colton and Melinoe glance at Serena.

SERENA (CONT’D)

You want to dethrone Hades?

ON SERENA - She is incredulous.

Melinoe and Colton glance at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. CHRIS’ CONDO - BEDROOM - NIGHT

ON THE BED - There are some movements down the sheets. The sheets move as the couple down it make love.

SOUND - Moans.

THE CAMERA APPROACHES THE BED and ---

BEAT. Chris’ face is uncovered. BEAT again. Someone is there as well. A woman. Brunette. The woman’s face is not seen.

Both kiss passionately.

CUT TO BLACK.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - DAY

MUSIC KEEPS PLAYING IN THE B.G.

ON WYATT’S ARM - His arm is reached out. The black marks are visible.

ON WYATT - He stares seriously at someone.

WYATT

So?

Sebastian stands in front of him staring at the black marks in Wyatt’s arms. Prue walks over to them.

PRUE

(to Sebastian)

Do you know what these marks may mean?

Sebastian glances at them.

SEBASTIAN

I wish I knew, but I don’t. Never seen anything like it.

Wyatt withdraws his arm and lifts down his sleeve. He takes a deep breath.

SEBASTIAN (CONT’D)

You said it started a few days ago. What happened exactly?

Wyatt glances at Prue.

WYATT

On the day Colton appeared.

Prue looks at Wyatt.

PRUE

(to Sebastian)

He’s not good. Maybe he did something to Wyatt.

SEBASTIAN

Why would he do something to Wyatt?

Prue shoots Sebastian a sharp look.

SEBASTIAN (CONT’D)

Okay. You don’t trust him. Fine. I probably wouldn’t either. But, the thing is, did he do something to cause this?

PRUE

Not that we know of.

WYATT

Actually, ---

Prue and Sebastian look at Wyatt.

PRUE

Honey?

WYATT

(to Prue)

There’s something I haven’t told you.

PRUE

(crosses her arms over her chest)

I’m all ears.

Wyatt and Sebastian glance at each other. Then Wyatt looks at Prue.

WYATT

Remember that day at the lab?

Prue gets thoughtful.

WYATT (CONT’D)

We shook hands and ---

Prue looks at Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

As our hands touched, we were thrown away from each other.

Prue frowns.

PRUE

What?

WYATT

And then, when I orbed out taking him ---

PRUE

What happened?

Wyatt takes a breath.

WYATT

The same. As soon as we landed in the Underworld, we were thrown away from each other.

Prue gets even more thoughtful.

PRUE

(realizing something)

So, it is related to Colton.

SEBASTIAN

(to Wyatt)

Did you and Colton talk about it?

Wyatt shakes his head.

WYATT

No. He ignored it and so did I.

PRUE

(to Sebastian)

Any idea why this is happening?

SEBASTIAN

Sorry. No.

PRUE

Can you ---?

Prue waves her hands in the air indicating that she means ‘Elders’. Sebastian understands what she means.

SEBASTIAN

I thought you were still mad at them.

WYATT

After what happened last year, how wouldn’t we?

SEBASTIAN

I don’t intend to defend them, but as everyone with no Warren blood, they had also fake memories.

PRUE

They could have chosen to believe what we knew was true.

Sebastian is about to speak on behalf of the Elders, but Prue raises a hand to stop him.

PRUE (CONT’D)

It doesn’t matter anymore. We need answers.

WYATT

I could go myself to ge them, but ---

SEBASTIAN

I can do that. Don’t worry. You have other things to worry about and I work half-time as a Whitelighter, so ---

WYATT

Thank you.

Wyatt nods. Then Sebastian ORBS out. Prue turns to Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I was going to tell you.

PRUE

(forces a smile)

For your own good, I really hope so.

They stare seriously at each other.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL / COOP MANOR - KITCHEN - DAY

ON ENVELOPE - It can be seen that is from Prescott Labs. It leans against a cup of coffe.

Charlotte stands staring sharply at the envelope.

OFF TO CASSANDRA - She walks in and stops as she sees Charlotte standing staring sharply at the envelope. Cassandra rolls her eyes, then she walks over to the coffee machine.

CASSANDRA

Are you still trying to disintegrate that envelope?

Charlotte doesn’t move her gaze from the envelope.

CHARLOTTE

The thought has crossed my mind.

CASSANDRA

Get over it, sis.

(pours herself some coffee)

Colton is our brother. Half-brother, actually.

OFF TO THE BACK ENTRANCE - Prue walks in and stares at Charlotte. Then Prue looks at Cassandra.

PRUE

Is she still trying to disintegrate the envelope?

Cassandra nods and has a sip of her coffee.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I can blow it up for you if you want me to.

Charlotte looks at Prue.

CHARLOTTE

(smiles)

Great. Do it.

PRUE

But you shall know that it won’t change the result.

Prue walks over the envelope and grabs it.

PRUE (CONT’D)

What’s in here, it’s just words, but it’s real.

CHARLOTTE

I still can’t accept that he’s our brother.

PRUE

Half-brother. And neither can I.

Charlotte lets out a loud and mad cry.

CHARLOTTE

Oh, I wish I could blow Colton out of our lives.

And as soon as she says that, Charlotte looks at Prue.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

(to Prue)

Actually, you could.

Prue and Cassandra glance at each other.

PRUE

What?

CHARLOTTE

You could blow Colton up.

PRUE

No, I can’t. I’m not a killer.

CHARLOTTE

You have done it before.

PRUE

To demons.

CASSANDRA

As a matter of fact, Colton is half-demon.

Charlotte smiles.

CHARLOTTE

See?

PRUE

Only part of him.

CHARLOTTE

Are you defending him?

PRUE

No. Believe me, I wish I could blow him up, but how would I live with my conscience?

CHARLOTTE

The same way you did after Mr. Shaw.

Prue shoots Charlotte a look. Charlotte regrets immediately what she said.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to ---

PRUE

It’s okay. I've got over it.

CASSANDRA

Have you?

Prue lowers her gaze, then she looks at her sisters.

PRUE


(sighs)

There’s not a single day that goes by that I don’t think of what I did. But I was a different persona back then. What happened is part of the past and right now only the present matters.

Prue puts the envelope on the counter.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Have mom and dad said something?

CASSANDRA

Last night. They are going to stay a few more days at Cupid’s Temple. Dad said that mom still has a lot to think about.

PRUE

Understandable. Well, I must go to work now.

Prue starts walking off, but ---

CHARLOTTE

I think we should go after him.

Prue stops and turns to her sisters.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

We need to know what his intentions are.

Prue nods.

PRUE

I’ll think about it. Talk later.

Charlotte and Cassandra nod. Prue walks off. Charlotte and Cassandra look at each other.

CHARLOTTE

Why doesn’t she get mad?

Cassandra rolls her eyes and then walks out of the kitchen with the cup of coffee.

CUT TO:

EXT. HALLIWELL / COOP MANOR - BACKYARD - DAY

Prue comes from the inside of the manor and stops. She takes a deep breath and then looks at her hands.

ON PRUE’S HANDS - They are shaking.

PRUE

(to herself)

I can’t lose it. I can’t risk losing my family again. So, keep it cool, Prue.

CUT TO:

EXT. CHRIS’ CONDO - DAY

STILL.

CUT TO:

INT. CHRIS’ CONDO - LIVING ROOM / DINING ROOM - DAY

ON CENTER TABLE - There are dirty dishes and open beer bottles.

As the table, the rest of the house seems a mess. The dining table is full of dirty dishes and there are a few clothes scattered all around. Chris comes from the bedroom and starts picking up things from the dining table and clothes from the furniture.

CHRIS

Damn, damn, damn!

Chris seems in a rush.

SOUND - Cellphone.

Chris glances around trying to locate his phone.

ON CENTER TABLE - The cellphone is there.

Chris spots the phone and walks over to it. He picks it up.

CHRIS

(on the phone)

Hey! No, no --- I’m late, but I’ll be right there. No, Mel, I’ll take them. Don’t worry.

Chris glances around.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

(on the phone)

I was just doing some cleaning, but I’ll finish later. I’ll be right there.

Chris hangs off the phone.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Maybe I should find someone to help me with this. I’ll remember that next time.

Chris drops the piece of clothing on the couch and then ORBS out.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - CONSERVATORY ROOM - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

Melinda hands off the phone and right after Chris ORBS in behind her. Tina and Matt are playing nearby while the twins and Phoenix are on the strollers.

CHRIS

Hey!

Melinda jumps as she hears him. She turns around.

MELINDA

Damn, Chris!

CHRIS

(shrugs)

You wanted me here ASAP.

MELINDA

Well, next time play nice.

Chris smiles at her. Then she walks over to Matt and grabs him.

CHRIS

Daddy missed you so much, baby.

(looks at Phoenix)

The both of you.

Melinda stares at them.

MELINDA

Well, then try to pick them up while they’re awake.

Chris looks at her.

CHRIS

I lost track of time.

MELINDA

For the third night in a row. What the hell is going on with you, Chris?

Melinda sounds mad.

CHRIS

Shush! Hasn’t Prue told you about cursing?

Melinda rolls her eyes.

MELINDA

It’s curious when you decided to listen to her. Well, bro, listen to her when she says your kids need their daddy.

CHRIS

Don’t worry. I’ll take them home tonight.

MELINDA

Just take them to Magic School right now. I need to go to Halliwell’s.

Melinda walks over to the babies and kisses each one of them. Then she shoots Chris a look and then walks off.

CHRIS

(to the babies)

Auntie Mel is such a pain in the ass, isn’t she?

He realizes what he just said.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Please, don’t let Prue know what I said.

Chris lowers down and puts Matt on the floor. He smiles at Matt and Tina.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - MAIN HALL - DAY

ON CHARLOTTE HUGGING SOMEONE - She’s welcoming Ella.

They are alone there.

CHARLOTTE

You’re finally here!

They pull back. Ella smiles.

ELLA

I needed time off.

CHARLOTTE

Right. I heard you were doing some volunteering in Ghana.

ELLA

Yes. There are a lot of people in need there.

CHARLOTTE

I know. It’s unbelievable how it happens in the twenty-first century.

ELLA

Yeah. How are things going?

Charlotte lets out a loud sigh.

ELLA (CONT’D)

That bad?

CHARLOTTE

I guess you haven’t heard.

(pauses)

I have a brother.

Ella is shocked.

ELLA

A what?

CHARLOTTE

Half-brother, actually. Showed up out of nowhere.

ELLA

Wait, how is that even possible?

CHARLOTTE

Mom’s first marriage.

Ella is open-mouthed.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

But I don’t want to talk about that. You better ask Prue the whole story because she’s the one who’s taking this better than me and Cass.

ELLA

She what?

CHARLOTTE

(sarcastic smile)

Right? Oh, but I’m so glad you’re finally here. We were really needing someone to take over the Tarot and Mystical Arts class. Five months, El.

Ella lowers her gaze.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

It's Chris, isn’t it?

Ella looks at Charlotte.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

You don’t want to impose your presence on him.

ELLA

I don’t want him to think that I have feelings for him.

CHARLOTTE

But you do.

Ella shoots her a questioning look.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

I’m a cupid.

ELLA

Are you reading me?

CHARLOTTE

Sorry, I can’t control it. After finding out about Colton, I’ve been nervous, so ---

ELLA

Well, try to control them.

(sighs lightly)

I don’t want to see him. Not yet at least.

OFF TO CHRIS - He ORBS in bringing all five children.

Charlotte sees Chris ORBING in.

ELLA (CONT’D)

I’m not willing to impose myself on him or that he thinks that I ---

CHARLOTTE

(out loud)

Chris!

Ella is surprised. She turns around and ---

BEAT. She sees Chris. Chris looks at them.

ELLA

(sighs lightly)

Chris!

Chris stares at Ella and half-smiles.

CHRIS

(to Ella)

You’re back.

Ella nods.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Welcome.

Ella forces a smile. She looks at the children.

ELLA

Oh, my God! They are so big.

Charlotte walks over to Chris and the kids.

CHARLOTTE

And I’m gonna take them to the nursery.

She glances at the twins’ stroller and at Phoenix’s stroller.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

Maybe I’ll just beam there.

(to Tina and Matt)

Kiddos, touch aunt Charlie now.

Tina and Matt touch Charlotte’s legs while she touches the strollers and BEAMS out. Chris and Ella look at each other.

CHRIS / ELLA

(at the same time)

So ---

They realize what happened. Then they smile at each other.

CHRIS

It’s nice to see you.

ELLA

You too. How are you?

Clearly, there’s a weird something between them.

CHRIS

I’m good. You?

ELLA

Better than ever. Ghana was such an experience.

CHRIS

I’m happy for you.

Ella smiles.

ELLA

The kids ---

CHRIS

They are fine. Growing up.

ELLA

I see. It must be hard without ---

CHRIS

Yeah, it is. But they have Prue. And Mel and Charlie ---

They stare at each other.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

It’s really nice to have you back, El. We never really got to talk about ---

ELLA

It’s okay, Chris. We don’t need to. It was another life. Today is what matters, right?

Chris nods. Ella smiles.

ELLA (CONT’D)

I need to find my classroom now. I can’t believe I’m now a teacher.

CHRIS

Good luck!

Ella smiles at him one last time, then she walks off. Chris stands there.

ON CHRIS - He sighs.

Then Chris ORBS out.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - OUTSIDE NURSERY - DAY (LATER)

Charlotte comes from the nursery and takes her way when ---

SOUND - A scream.

Charlotte turns around. She then rushes the way the scream came from.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - EMPTY CLASSROOM - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

The classroom is dark. The door opens and the light from outside illuminates the classroom. Charlotte walks in and glances around.

OFF TO A CORNER - A girl, LORA (15), is leaning against the wall. Her facial expression is one of terror.

Charlotte looks at her.

CHARLOTTE

Lora?

(walks over to her)

Are you okay?

Lora glances at Charlotte.

LORA

(terrified)

It is screaming in my head. Make it stop, please. Make it stop.

Charlotte stares seriously at Lora, not knowing what to do.

CUT TO:

INT. WHITE MANOR - LIVING ROOM - DAY

Colton comes in a rush followed by Serena. She’s trying to reason with him.

SERENA

You cannot do that. You don’t know how Hades is.

COLTON

Mother does.

SERENA

She’s acting out of revenge.

Colton turns to Serena.

COLTON

So? She was cast out of there.

SERENA

Hades must have had his reasons.

Colton walks over to her and stands really close to her.

COLTON

You’re trying to convince me not to help her?

Serena stares seriously at her.

SERENA

Why now, Colton? She has been a damn Goddess living in exile for centuries. She never even shared with you that she wanted to go back and claim that place. Why now?

Serena is clearly not happy about it.

SERENA (CONT’D)

She hid the truth about your birth for years.

COLTON

She had her reasons.

SERENA

Yeah, right!

They stare at each other.

SERENA (CONT’D)

I don’t trust her.

COLTON

You never liked her.

SERENA

Well, she made you lie to me about who she was. An aunt, wasn’t it how you introduced her to me all these years ago when we met?

Colton glances away.

SERENA (CONT’D)

And you being a Halliwell and all that stuff?

COLTON

I just found out.

SERENA

(mad)

Five months ago.

(steps back)

I just hope you’re not planning to go up against them now that you’ve found who you are. They are the freaking Warrens.

Serena turns to leave, but Colton grabs her arm. He forces her to look at him. Serena gazes at his hand, grabs his arm, and then looks at him.

COLTON

You’re my wife. You better know what side you want to be on.

Serena pulls her arm back.

SERENA

I’m your wife.

(pauses)

I’m on your side.

They stare at each other for a few seconds and then Serena turns around and leaves the room as Colton watches her leave.

BEHIND COLTON, it can be seen Melinoe SMOKING in surrounded by blue smoke.

MELINOE

It’s better to keep an eye on her.

Colton turns at Melinoe.

MELINOE (CONT’D)

She can betray us.

COLTON

She won’t.

Colton gives his back to Melinoe.

COLTON (CONT’D)

She wouldn’t.

ON COLTON - He has a serious expression.

CUT TO:

EXT. BAY MIRROR - DAY

STILL FOOTAGE at the sign.

CUT TO:

INT. BAY MIRROR - MIRROR’S MAGAZINE - WYATT’S OFFICE - DAY

Wyatt comes into his office. He goes straight to his chair and sits. Then grabs the phone and dials a number.

WYATT

(on the phone)

Lucy, let me know when Mr. Hale arrives, please.

Wyatt hangs off the phone. He takes a few documents that are under the desk and stares at them.

OFF TO THE DOOR - Chris comes in.

CHRIS

Hey, you wanted to see me?

Wyatt looks at his brother.

WYATT

Yeah.

Chris walks over to the desk and sits across from Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

What were you doing last night?

Chris shoots Wyatt a look.

CHRIS

(stands)

If it’s not about work.

WYATT

(bossy)

Sit.

Wyatt is serious. Chris stares at him for a couple of seconds and then decides to sit as Wyatt asked.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Were you hunting demons again?

CHRIS

(leans back)

I wasn’t.

WYATT

Then?

Wyatt and Chris stare at each other for a few seconds.

CHRIS

I just needed time for myself.

WYATT

I see.

CHRIS

I’m sorry I didn’t get in time to get the kids home.

WYATT

Chris, we don’t mind staying with the kids. But Matt asks for you. He spent a whole year inside a horrible place and now he wants to be with his daddy. Especially now that he has ---

Wyatt cuts himself off. Chris stares at him.

CHRIS

You can finish that sentence.

Wyatt thinks a bit before continuing.

WYATT

Especially now that he has lost his mother.

Chris lowers his gaze.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I know you are still hurting.

CHRIS

(rude)

I’m fine.

WYATT

No, you are not.

Chris looks at Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

And it’s fine not to be fine. I just want you to open up with me. I’m your brother and I love you. I just want to help you.

CHRIS

I know.

(calmer)

I’m sorry, Wy. I just ---

(deep breath)

I can’t accept that she’s gone. I miss her all the time.

WYATT

I know.

CHRIS

You don’t. Prue is alive.

WYATT

But I have lost her a couple of times before.

CHRIS

And you always got her back. Sorry, bro, but you really don’t know how it feels to not have her with me.

WYATT

You're right, I don’t. Talk to me. Let me help you.

Chris leans forward on the desk.

CHRIS

I can’t be helped. I’m dealing with it the way I can.

WYATT

But we can do this together.

CHRIS

(upset)

No, we can’t. No one understands what I feel.

WYATT

It doesn’t mean I cannot try to help.

CHRIS

If I ever need help, ---

(stands)

--- I’ll ask for it.

Chris stands and walks over to the door as Wyatt watches him, but he’s forced to stop as Wyatt lets out a cry of pain.

Chris turns around to see his brother holding his head with pain.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Wyatt?

Chris rushes to help his brother.

CUT TO BLACK.

END OF ACT ONE

[Prue Brianna Johnna Halliwell]

ACT TWO

OVER BLACK.

FADE IN:

INT. WHITE MANOR - WINE CELLAR - DAY

There is not much light in this room.

ON A DEMON - He’s on his knees. He’s screaming as he’s been tortured.

Standing near the demon is the demon Bak and so another demon. Before them, Colton stands, arms reaching out as BEAMS of powers come from him hitting the demon. It doesn’t take long for the demon to blow up completely.

Bak and the other demon, SOZON (appears 30s). Bak walks over to Colton.

BAK

Well done.

Colton looks at Bak and smirks.

COLTON

Do you care to tell me why I had to vanquish him?

BAK

He wasn’t going to support us.

COLTON

And do I have to vanquish all those who don’t want to support me?

BAK

Now, the plan was to torture him, but you need to train your powers.

COLTON

Did it have to be here?

Bak opens his arms.

BAK

You better prepare things. We need a headquarters and I’m sure you are your father’s son.

Colton shoots him a look.

BAK (CONT’D)

He wasn’t fond of staying much time down there.

COLTON

Well, you are right on something. I plan to move things up here. The time for demons to gather in the Underworld has to have an end.

Bak and Sozon stare at each other and smirk.

BAK

The others will be pleased to hear that.

COLTON

Then, spread the word.

BAK

About the coronation ---

COLTON

Prepare it too. Make sure every demon knows who their new leader is. But be careful.

(pauses)

I don’t want my new family to find out about it.

BAK

(nods)

As you wish.

Bak nods to Sozon and then both of the SHIMMER out.

ON COLTON - He takes a hand to his temples.

COLTON

(to himself)

Damn headache!

Colton walks off.

CUT TO:

INT. BAY MIRROR - MIRROR’S MAGAZINE - WYATT’S OFFICE - DAY

Wyatt is sitting on the couch with his face buried in his hands. Chris stands staring at him.

CHRIS

Okay, you need to tell me what’s going on.

Wyatt looks at him. Chris stands arm-crossed. Wyatt stands.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Don’t you dare to tell me you don’t know, ‘cause I know you better than you think.

Wyatt takes a deep breath. Then he lifts the sleeve of his shirt. Chris stares as he realizes the black marks on Wyatt’s arm. Wyatt reaches out his hand and arm.

ON WYATT’S ARM - The mark starts in the middle of the hand and goes all the way up until the middle-low arm.

Chris stares seriously at Wyatt.

CHRIS

What is that?

WYATT

I wish I knew.

(pauses)

It started a few days ago. This and the headaches.

CHRIS

Who knows?

WYATT

Prue and Sebastian.

CHRIS

(hurt)

You told Sebastian and didn’t tell me?

WYATT

Have you been sharing lately?

Chris shoots Wyatt a look.

WYATT (CONT’D)

We just talked to him earlier. He has gone to talk to the Elders.

CHRIS

What could it be?

Wyatt looks away. Chris stares at him feeling that Wyatt is suspicious of something.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

Wyatt?

Wyatt looks at Chris.

WYATT

Colton.

CHRIS

You think ---?

WYATT

I don’t know. Remember the other day when we went to the Underworld?

Chris nods.

WYATT (CONT’D)

I touched him to orb out and as soon as we landed there, we were thrown away from each other. And the same happened when we shook hands.

Chris is thoughtful.

CHRIS

But why?

WYATT

I don’t know.

Chris walks over to Wyatt and grabs his shoulders.

CHRIS

We will find out. If Colton is behind what’s happening to you, we will find out.

Both brothers look at each other seriously.

Junior walks in and walks over to his desk. As he sits at his desk, Junior realizes he has a note under his desk. Junior grabs the note and reads. His expression hardens. Junior glances around and ---

JUNIOR

Torres?

One of the officers around, OFFICER TORRES (25), turns around and glances at Junior who signs him to come closer. Torres walks over to Junior’s desk.

TORRES

Detective?

JUNIOR

How did this end in my desk?

TORRES

It was a man. He found me outside and told me to give you that note.

JUNIOR

Did you recognize him?

Torres shakes his head. Junior signs him to leave. Junior takes another look at the note and then stands and leaves the room.

Melinda comes from the back carrying some dishes. Tamora comes following.

TAMORA

Seriously, Mel, we need to focus on preparing things for the big day.

MELINDA

It’s still months away, Tam.

Melinda puts the plates on one of the tables and starts placing them on their spot on the table.

TAMORA

Yeah, but you won’t find the right dress overnight.

MELINDA

Don’t worry about my dress.

TAMORA

I have to. You seem not to care.

Melinda turns to Tamora and looks at her sharply.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

Do you really want to get married?

Melinda sighs.

MELINDA

I do. Honestly. But don’t forget it’s not my first wedding.

TAMORA

Oh, the other one doesn’t count.

MELINDA

Legally, it doesn’t. But I do remember.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Prue walks in. She glances around.

TAMORA

You need to get over it.

Melinda sees Prue arriving.

MELINDA

Prue?

Tamora looks at Prue. They notice Prue is not doing fine.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

What’s going on?

PRUE

I need to talk. I’m afraid to get mad. I want to, but I’m afraid to.

Melinda and Tamora look at each other.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I don’t want to ruin it all again.

MELINDA

Oh, honey.

Melinda rushes to Prue and hugs her tightly. Tamora stares at them.

PRUE

I don’t want to lose them again. I can’t.

TAMORA

You won’t. We won’t let it happen.

Melinda lets go of Prue and turn to Tamora.

MELINDA

We need a girls’ day out.

TAMORA

(smiles)

Hell, yes.

Melinda smiles supportively at Prue.

ON LORA - She’s lying on the couch. She has been put to sleep.

Charlotte and Ella stare at her. Charlotte glances at Ella.

CHARLOTTE

I had to put her to sleep. She was so nervous and screaming all the time.

Ella turns to Charlotte.

ELLA

You did the right thing. We now have to keep the students away from here until we find what’s going on.

CHARLOTTE

I know. The other teachers are keeping them in the classrooms.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - The doors open and Leo comes in.

He walks over to Charlotte and Ella who turn at him.

LEO

I’ve been told what happened.

CHARLOTTE

Uncle Leo! I had to put Lora to sleep.

Leo looks at Lora and then at Charlotte and Ella.

LEO

Any idea what happened to her?

CHARLOTTE

No. She kept repeating to make it stop.

LEO

Make what stop?

Charlotte and Ella glance at each other.

CHARLOTTE

The screaming in her head.

Leo can’t understand.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

She couldn’t explain better. Was getting out of control.

ELLA

(to Leo)

Do you have any idea what could be causing this?

LEO

No.

Leo walks over to Lora and stares seriously at her. Then Leo turns to the woman.

LEO (CONT’D)

We should better talk with her colleagues. They might know something.

Charlotte and Ella nod.

CHARLOTTE

We’ll start the interrogation immediately.

Leo nods.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - HEADMASTER’S OFFICE - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

Charlotte and Ella are there interrogating a male STUDENT #1 (15).

CHARLOTTE

So, did something weird happened to Lora?

Student #1 shakes his head.

STUDENT #1

She was normal when I saw her before class.

ON CHARLOTTE - She asks another question.

CHARLOTTE

Did she say anything before class?

INTERCUT TO:

ON STUDENT #2 - A girl (16).

STUDENT #2

She was just excited about our new teacher.

(looks at Ella)

She’s a fan of tarot.

Ella and Charlotte glance at each other.

ON ELLA - She asks a question.

ELLA

Did she have troubles at home?

INTERCUT TO:

ON STUDENT #3 - Another girl (15).

STUDENT #3

Her mother is a witch and her father a former demon. I believe that she has a good relationship with them.

ON CHARLOTTE - Another question.

CHARLOTTE

But she is staying here at Magic School.

INTERCUT TO:

ON STUDENT #4 - A boy (16).

STUDENT #4

We are not very close, but I’ve heard that’s because her mother doesn’t have a teleportation power and they don’t have much money for ingredients for potions, so ---

INTERCUT TO:

ON ANOTHER STUDENT - BAILEY (15) is serious.

BAILEY

She was doing fine, but Lora isn’t very popular around.

ELLA

Why’s that?

Bailey glances from Charlotte to Ella.

BAILEY

Because she’s very smart and speaks her mind.

CHARLOTTE

Right. She has always been like that.

BAILEY

Last night for example. Lora and Bonnie got into a fight.

CHARLOTTE

(surprised)

A fight?

Bailey nods.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

How come I’m just learning about this?

BAILEY

It happened after you left, Miss Halliwell. In the dorms. Bonnie has always messed with Lora because of her blood.

CHARLOTTE

What’s with her blood?

BAILEY

She’s half-demon.

CHARLOTTE

Her father is a former demon. A low one. He gave up his powers to marry Lora’s mother.

BAILEY

Yes, but some of us fear that she is not as good as the rest of us.

ELLA

The rest of you? It seems to me there’s a bit of prejudice here.

BAILEY

Oh, no, Miss Davies. I’m Lora’s friend.

Bailey starts getting nervous.

BAILEY (CONT’D)

Now Bonnie ---

Charlotte and Ella glance at each other.

CHARLOTTE

What about Bonnie?

Bailey glances from Charlotte to Ella.

BAILEY

Last night, Bonnie called her something. She’s has been using that name, and last night Lora answered back.

CHARLOTTE

What was the name Bonnie gave her?

BAILEY

Dirty blood.

CHARLOTTE

(astonished)

What?

ELLA

Have we gotten into some Harry Potter universe now and they’ve forgotten to tell us about it?

BAILEY

Bonnie took it from one of those Harry Potter books, indeed.

ELLA

(to Charlotte)

Do we have Harry Potter books here?

CHARLOTTE

It’s important to the apprenticeship.

ELLA

Huh?

CHARLOTTE

They need to tell the difference between true and false.

ELLA

Right!

CHARLOTTE

So, why did she call her dirty blood?

INTERCUT TO:

ON ANOTHER STUDENT - BONNIE (16) is seriously staring at Charlotte and Ella.

BONNIE

Her father is a demon, Miss Halliwell.

CHARLOTTE

Does that give you the right to offend her?

Bonnie doesn’t shake at the accusing tone used by Charlotte.

BONNIE

I didn’t think she would take it so personally.

CHARLOTTE

You didn’t? Bonnie, you were mean.

Bonnie’s expression softens.

BONNIE

I’m sorry, Miss Halliwell. It won’t happen again.

Charlotte and Ella stare seriously at her.

CHARLOTTE

Do you have any idea what happened to Lora?

Bonnie looks seriously at them. Then she shakes her head.

BONNIE

I’m sorry, I don’t.

Bonnie sounds fake. Charlotte and Ella glance at each other. Then Charlotte turns to Bonnie.

CHARLOTTE

You may leave.

Bonnie nods. She stands and walks out of the office. Charlotte and Ella glance at each other.

ELLA

Did you believe her?

CHARLOTTE

I don’t know. Bonnie is just a witch. What could she do to Lora?

ELLA

Yeah, that’s exactly the question.

ON CHARLOTTE - She’s thoughtful.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - CORRIDOR - DAY (SHORTLY AFTER)

Bonnie comes walking at pace.

BAILEY (O.S.)

Bonnie?

Bonnie turns around. Bailey walks over to her.

BAILEY (CONT’D)

What did you do?

BONNIE

Whatever you mean?

Bonnie turns around.

BAILEY

You said you would make her pay.

ON BONNIE - She smirks. Then she turns to face Bailey.

BONNIE

I didn’t do anything.

BAILEY

Are you sure?

BONNIE

(smiles)

Totally.

BAILEY

You always hated her.

BONNIE

She’s not a good thing. I’m sure others feel the same.

Bonnie shoots her a look and then turns around and walks off. Bailey stares at Bonnie as she leaves. She’s thoughtful.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - CLASSROOM - DAY

The classroom is empty. Bonnie walks in and glances around. Then she walks over to a desk and takes a book. She opens the book and as she does a SMOKE comes from the book and it turns into a GHOSTLY FORM of a woman. FELLA (looks 30s) stares at Bonnie. Fella wears a white gown.

BONNIE

(smiles)

Thank you.

FELLA

The Dame of Screams don’t fail her subjects. Now, don’t forget what you promise me.

BONNIE

I will release you.

Fella smiles.

FELLA

Just say the words, my dear.

Bonnie nods. She then reads from the book.

BONNIE

(reading from the book)

Liberam esse, Fella!

And BEAT. Fella turns corporeal. She smiles at Bonnie.

FELLA

Thank you, Bonnie. I won’t forget what you’ve done for me.

BONNIE

I just want the school free of those dirty blood.

FELLA

Of course. We can’t let them take what’s not theirs.

Bonnie smirks wickedly.

There is music there. Tamora is at the DJ’s table playing some music.

OFF TO MELINDA - She comes from the back with a couple of bottles.

Prue is sitting at the counter staring at them.

PRUE

Are you two serious?

MELINDA

Well, yes. You are not breastfeeding anymore, so ---

TAMORA

(cheerful)

Drinking time, baby!

Tamora comes from the stage and both Melinda and Tamora head to the bar.

PRUE

I don’t know if it’s a good idea. I just need to talk.

TAMORA

(to Prue)

You found a new brother ---

PRUE

Half-brother.

TAMORA

Whatever. Half-brother found out to be no other than the present life of Set, the Egyptian God. And have been taking care of five children.

Tamora takes one of the bottles and pours some alcohol on a glass.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

You need this more than any of us.

Tamora hands Prue the glass.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

Drink it.

Prue stares at the glass. Melinda and Tamora shoot Prue a look forcing her to take the glass. Prue does and keeps staring at it.

MELINDA

Bottoms up!

Prue drinks the whole liquid in one sip. Then she lands the glass on the counter.

PRUE

What the hell is this?

MELINDA

You’re the owner!

Prue lowers her gaze.

TAMORA

Another one coming out.

Tamora pours more alcohol into the glass.

MELINDA

Prue?

Prue looks at them.

PRUE

I can’t lose them. Not again.

MELINDA

You won’t.

Tamora pours the liquid into another two glasses.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

We won’t let anything happen to the kids.

PRUE

You don’t understand. I’m terrified. If Barbas was here he could use it against me.

TAMORA

I thought your biggest fear was to go dark.

PRUE

I’ve embraced my dark side. But I haven’t got over what happened last year. We’ve lost something. A lot of things, actually.

(eyes get wet)

Time. Moments. Bianca.

(pauses)

And now this man shows up and I ---

(swallows)

--- I feel like he’s a bad thing.

MELINDA

He has our blood, Prue. Maybe he just wants to fit in.

PRUE

Do you really believe that?

Tamora and Melinda glance at each other.

PRUE (CONT’D)

He’s half-demon. You didn’t see him that day. When he introduced himself to me, it was like he was claiming victory over me.

TAMORA

Well, he’s the eldest, Prue.

PRUE

It’s not just that. His glare ---

(swallows)

--- there’s something there.

MELINDA

You’ve met Cole, Prue.

TAMORA

Yeah, maybe he took his father’s good side.

PRUE

His father only got one after death.

TAMORA

Why don’t you tell him?

Prue and Melinda look at Tamora.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

That his father had a good side after all? That he came back to do some good?

MELINDA

Yeah.

Tamora and Melinda look at Prue.

PRUE

No. He is ---

(thoughtful)

--- evil.

(looks at them)

I saw evil in his eyes. But I can’t fight him because I don’t want him to turn against us and take what I love the most. Wyatt and the girls.

MELINDA

Oh, Prue, I’m sure that things are not as bad as you think.

PRUE

It’s me, Mel.

(pauses)

I can sense evil, remember?

TAMORA

You’ve been emotional ever since you became a mother, Prue. He, being the present life of Set, doesn’t mean that he’s bad. I mean, he has our blood. We are good.

MELINDA

Yeah, that’s not a good argument, Tam.

TAMORA

Oh, well, he wasn’t born in the Halliwell manor.

MELINDA

Well, as a matter of fact, we know nothing about his birth. Not even a date.

PRUE

I should ---

Prue takes her drink in one sip, then she lands the glass on the counter.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I should talk to him. Tell him that I’m not looking for trouble.

Tamora and Melinda stare seriously at Prue.

MELINDA

You’re going to reveal your weakness to him?

TAMORA

Yeah, Prue, that’s not a good idea either. Prue Halliwell is not weak.

PRUE

Isn’t she? Maybe I finally became the weakest one of the family.

MELINDA

Hey, listen to me ---

Melinda grabs Prue’s hands.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

That’s fear talking. Not you, Prue. We, Warrens, are not weak. You should talk to him, yes, but not to show weakness. But to let him know, that you don’t fear him. No matter who he is.

TAMORA

Not to declare war, Prue. Just to let him know that if he ever thinks of going up against any of us, we’ll fight back. You’ll fight back.

PRUE

What if I’m too afraid to fight?

TAMORA

Darkness chose you, dammit. Whatever fear you might feel, you’ll get over it.

Prue reaches a hand to Tamora. She grabs it.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

You are the damn Prue Halliwell.

MELINDA

She’s a bit irritating sometimes, but we kinda love her.

All three women hold hands.

PRUE

(forces a smile)

Thank you.

(drops a tear)

I am the damn Prue Halliwell.

TAMORA

Oh, yeah, baby. Now.

Tamora pours alcohol into Prue’s glass.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

Bottoms up!

All three women drink the liquid in their glasses in one sip.

INT. BAY MIRROR - MIRROR’S MAGAZINE - WYATT’S OFFICE - DAY

Wyatt, Chris, and Johnathan are there sitting around the meeting table. They are studying some documents.

WYATT

So, as you can see, the numbers have increased.

JOHNATHAN

Yeah, I can see that. This looks good. And the story of the corruption at city hall ---

(smiles)

--- was great.

CHRIS

For all the wrong reasons.

JOHNATHAN

True. But newspapers and magazines don’t survive only with happy stories. And in the end, it turned good.

WYATT

Melissa did a great job at it.

JOHNATHAN

Yeah.

(smiles)

About her request ---

WYATT

I don’t think it’s a good idea.

JOHNATHAN

Wyatt, she talked to me the other day.

WYATT

I told her not to mix personal and professional life.

JOHNATHAN

That’s not an issue. I already feel part of the family.

WYATT

But still, you’re our boss.

JOHNATHAN

That’s actually Althea Prescott and not me.

They laugh.

CHRIS

Anyway, Melissa going undercover is too dangerous. Junior’s father is already in there and weeks go by without news of him.

WYATT

Yeah. If Melissa goes undercover too ---

CHRIS

Specially inside the same gang.

JOHNATHAN

But she seems pretty sure there’s a huge story there.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Melissa burst in followed by Cassandra.

CASSANDRA

Melissa!

Wyatt, Chris, and Johnathan turn to them and stand.

CASSANDRA (CONT’D)

(to the men)

She insisted.

MELISSA

You three are here talking about my request, aren’t you?

WYATT

Melissa ---

MELISSA

I told you I can do it.

CASSANDRA

Junior would hate if you go undercover, Melissa.

MELISSA

Christopher is there.

WYATT

Well, that’s not new for Christopher. His father was a crime lord.

Melissa walks over to Johnathan.

MELISSA

Mr. Hale ---

JOHNATHAN

It’s Johnathan.

MELISSA

(smiles)

Of course, because we are kind of family now. So, please. Let me do this.

Wyatt and Chris glance at each other. Johnathan stares seriously at Melissa.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

Imagine how big would that be to Bay Mirror. Especially Mirror’s Magazine.

CHRIS

Not to mention a Pulitzer.

Wyatt nudges Chris. Chris shrugs.

MELISSA

That too, I won’t deny that’s my professional dream, but ---

JOHNATHAN

(cuts her off)

You’re in.

Melinda smiles big. Wyatt’s expression shows he doesn’t agree.

CASSANDRA

Are you sure?

JOHNATHAN

She believes she can do it.

MELISSA

Oh, I can.

Johnathan glances at Wyatt and Chris. Then he turns to Melissa.

JOHNATHAN

But there are rules.

Melissa shoots him a suspicious look.

JOHNATHAN (CONT’D)

You need to report every day.

MELISSA

I’ll try.

JOHNATHAN

You will.

They stare at each other seriously.

MELISSA

Okay. Thank you, Johnathan.

Johnathan nods. He turns to Wyatt and Chris.

JOHNATHAN

I need to go now.

Johnathan grabs his things.

JOHNATHAN (CONT’D)

(to Cassandra)

Are you returning with me to Prescott Group?

CASSANDRA

Uh, no. I’m gonna meet Charlie and Pan.

JOHNATHAN

Okay. See you later, then.

Johnathan approaches Cassandra and kisses her on the cheek. Then he walks out of the office. Melissa smiles at Cassandra

MELISSA

So good to date the boss, huh?!

CASSANDRA

(shoots her a look)

You are crazy, you know? Junior is going to kill you.

MELISSA

No, he won’t. He cannot know.

WYATT

Are you gonna keep it from him?

Melissa nods.

MELISSA

He’s already in distress because of Christopher.

CHRIS

How are you going to explain your absence?

MELISSA

I’ll tell him I have to cover something out of town.

CHRIS

Do you remember that he can orb to meet you?

WYATT

True. If he senses you in the middle of danger ---

MELISSA

He and I have an agreement. He would stop sensing me.

CASSANDRA

He’ll find out.

MELISSA

No, he won’t. You won’t tell him.

WYATT

I don’t think it’s a good idea.

MELISSA

Yeah, but Johnathan is the big boss. So ---

WYATT

Melissa ---

MELISSA

It’s settled. I need to prepare myself.

Melissa turns around and walks out of the office. Cassandra glances at Wyatt and Chris.

CASSANDRA

We need to do something.

WYATT

We won’t be able to stop her. I know her.

CASSANDRA

Leave it to me. I’ll think of something.

Cassandra is about to beam out, but ---

CHRIS

Cass?

Cassandra looks at him.

CHRIS

You came through the door.

CASSANDRA

Right.

Cassandra turns around and leaves the office. Once she’s gone, Wyatt sits and grabs his head. Chris looks at him.

CHRIS

The pain again?

WYATT

(looks at Chris)

It’s smaller, but ---

CHRIS

I have an idea.

Wyatt stares at him.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

If powers don’t work, take a pain killer.

WYATT

Is that your brilliant idea?

CHRIS

Well, almighty Wyatt, there’s a first time for everything.

WYATT

(stands; mad)

We haven’t finished our previous chat.

CHRIS

Oh, no. I have. I need to go.

Chris walks over to the door, but ---

WYATT

Do you know Ella is back?

Chris stops.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Prue told me last night.

Chris turns to face Wyatt.

CHRIS

I know. I saw her when I took the kids to Magic School. Your point?

WYATT

You were married to her there.

CHRIS

My wife is Bianca, Wyatt.

Chris sounds mad.

WYATT

Bianca is dead.

CHRIS

Not for me.

Chris turns around and walks quickly out of the office.

ON WYATT - He sighs. Then he presses his temples to ease the pain.

HADES (V.O)

Get out of here!

The voice of Hades sounds commanding.

YOUNGER MELINOE (V.O)

Father, please.

HADES (V.O.)

I am not your father.

YOUNGER MELINOE (V.O.)

How many times does my mother have to say that I am?

HADES (V.O.)

She lies. I only have one daughter and that’s certainly not you.

(pauses)

Leave, Melinoe. You are now expelled from Inferno.

YOUNG MELINOE (V.O.)

But this is my home.

HADES (V.O.)

This is not the home of yours.

As Melinoe remembers the words of her father in her head, her expression hardens. Melinoe walks over to the rock wall and reaches out her hand touching the symbol on the wall.

ON HADES SYMBOL - It is BIDENT, a two-pronged implement resembling a pitchfork. Melinoe touches it.

MELINOE

Someday, somehow, I’ll be back, father. You’ll pay for what you’ve done to me. I’ll take back what’s truly mine.

Melinoe gets serious out of a sudden. She has felt something. She turns around quickly and ---

BEAT. Someone is there. A handsome and tall man. ITHURIEL (appears late 30s) smirks at her.

MELINOE (CONT’D)

Ithuriel!

ITHURIEL

My Goddess Melinoe. How long has it been?!

British accent. They stare at each other.

MELINOE

Centuries. I see you haven’t gone back.

Ithuriel stares at the rock wall.

ITHURIEL

There’s nothing there for me.

MELINOE

Nothing at all?

Ithuriel glances at her.

ITHURIEL

It lost the fun when you left.

MELINOE

I bet.

ITHURIEL

I’ve heard you are finally coming out of the shadows. Have you gone tired of hiding?

MELINOE

I wasn’t hiding.

ITHURIEL

No?

Ithuriel shoots her a look.

ITHURIEL (CONT’D)

Mother of the Source’s heir. How did that happen?

Melinoe looks away and walks around Ithuriel.

MELINOE

Why are you here, Ithuriel? Why have you came to find me now?

Melinoe looks at him.

ITHURIEL

(smirks)

I want to be close to you when you claim that place back.

Ithuriel points to the Inferno’s Gates, the rock wall with Hades symbol. Melinoe smirks.

MELINOE

Of course, you want. You were always smart.

ITHURIEL

What’s the plan?

MELINOE

My son.

Ithuriel smirks.

ITHURIEL

How did you become his mother?

MELINOE

I was lucky, I guess.

Ithuriel walks over to her. Both stare seriously at each other.

ITHURIEL

What do you say? Need a partner?

Melinoe smirks.

MELINOE

In all my life, I’ve never found a partner like you.

ITHURIEL

Good. I’ve missed you, ---

He leans over her.

ITHURIEL (CONT’D)

--- wife.

Ithuriel pulls her closer and kisses Melinoe passionately.

I guess they all have gone mad.

The students keep repeating ‘make it stop’. Charlotte looks at Leo.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

That’s what Lora said when I found her.

Leo rushes to one of the students and grabs the fifteen years old boy by his arms.

LEO

Hey, what do you feel?

STUDENT #5 looks at Leo, terrified.

STUDENT #5

Make it stop. It’s screaming in my head.

The boy grabs his head and gets free. He walks over to a wall and starts hitting his head against the wall. Leo and Charlotte look astonished at him.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Ella walks in.

Ella sees Student #5 hitting his head against the wall and uses TELEKINESIS to move him away from the wall. The boy lands in one of the couches.

ELLA

This is happening all over the school.

Leo glances around.

CHARLOTTE

Uncle Leo, what do we do? How do we stop it?

LEO

I don’t know. I really don’t know. I’ve never seen anything like it.

ELLA

CHARLOTTE

The spell isn’t strong enough to.

Professor Eva stands. She takes some documents from the desk.

EVA

I’m handing you now the results of last week’s test.

Eva walks between desks handing them their tests. She hands Bonnie and Bailey’s.

EVA (CONT’D)

Go straight to the dorms. I’ll try to find out what’s happening.

Bonnie is not pleased with her results.

BONNIE

This is unfair.

Eva glances at Bonnie.

EVA

Did you say something?

Bonnie stands.

BONNIE

This result.

EVA

You clearly didn’t study, Bonnie.

(to the students)

You may leave now. Straight to the dorms.

All students, but Bonnie, grab their stuff and start leaving the classroom. Bailey looks at Bonnie.

BAILEY

Bonnie?

Bonnie shoots her a look as she grabs her stuff. Eva walks over to her desk. Bailey leaves the classroom. Bonnie walks over to the exit but stops before leaving.

BONNIE

Fella!

Professor Eva glances at Bonnie.

EVA

Did you say something?

Bonnie turns around.

BONNIE

(smirks)

Fella!

And at that moment, Fella appears surrounded by grey smoke. Eva stares at Fella astonished.

EVA

What’s this?

BONNIE

(to Eva)

I’m sorry, professor. I don’t like to be pissed off.

Eva is astonished. Bonnie turns around and walks out of the classroom. Eva looks at Fella.

EVA

Who are you?

Fella smirks and walks over to Eva. Eva steps back until she hits the wall behind her. There’s no escape.

FELLA

Scream!

Eva looks terrified at Fella.

Yes, this looks good.

Colton turns to Bak.

COLTON

Is it enough to meet with the Leaders?

Bak nods.

BAK

Perfect.

COLTON

Good. Melinoe worked her magic here.

BAK

And here I thought she was the Goddess of Ghosts.

COLTON

She has quite a considerable amount of powers.

BAK

I see that now.

COLTON

Tell the others I’m summoning them for a meeting tonight. I want to know how things are going down there.

BAK

Consider it done.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Serena walks in and stops as she glances around.

Colton looks at Serena.

COLTON

(to Bak)

That’ll be all.

Bak glances at Serena. Then he nods and SHIMMERS out. Serena looks at Colton.

SERENA

So this is what our home is becoming? A headquarters for demons to gather.

COLTON

Those demons are my people.

SERENA

Your people?

(sarcastic smile)

You didn’t even know you were part demon until five months ago.

COLTON

But now I know. Everything has changed.

SERENA

Everything? Even your soul?

Colton’s expression hardens. He’s serious.

COLTON

I don’t even know if I have one.

SERENA

Colton, of course, you have one. You were good. But now, you’ve let yourself be consumed by Melinoe’s hatred.

COLTON

They left me.

SERENA

They didn’t know about you.

COLTON

They should’ve tried.

SERENA

They didn’t know. Even my mother didn’t know Phoebe Halliwell was pregnant with the Source’s heir.

COLTON

Did you tell your mother who I was?

SERENA

Don’t worry. I said nothing. My mother would go straightly to the Halliwells.

COLTON

A good witch that mother of yours.

SERENA

Just as I am. And so were you.

COLTON

Well, love, now we know that I’m more than just a witch.

Serena stares seriously at Colton. She shakes her head.

SERENA

Put me out of that revenge of yours. I love you too much to support this. Everyone knows that going up against any Warren witch is suicide.

COLTON

I am a Warren.

SERENA

Yeah. That should be motive enough for joy and not revenge.

Serena turns around and walks out of the room. Colton is serious.

AERIAL FOOTAGE all over the town.

CUT TO:

INT. MAGIC SCHOOL - CLASSROOM - EVENING

Professor Eva is sitting on the floor grabbing her head and screaming out loud.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - The door opens and Ella walks in. She spots Eva right away.

Ella rushes to Eva.

ELLA

Hey, hey!

Eva glances at Ella.

EVA

Make it stop.

ELLA

What do you feel?

EVA

It’s loud. The screams in my head.

ELLA

How loud?

Eva screams out loud. Then Ella notices something.

ON EVA’S LEFT EAR - Blood comes out of it.

ELLA (CONT’D)

(worried)

Oh, my God!

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Charlotte comes in.

CHARLOTTE

El? I was looking for you.

Ella looks at Charlotte over her shoulder.

CHARLOTTE (CONT'D)

She too?

Ella nods.

ELLA

There’s blood.

Ella shows Charlotte the blood that comes from Eva’s ear.

Leo, Cassandra, Pandora, and Chris are there. They glance around.

WYATT

I don’t know how long they will stay that way.

PANDORA

At least now we can concentrate on finding what’s going on.

CASSANDRA

Will it stop the bleeding?

LEO

Let’s hope so.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Charlotte rushes in.

CHARLOTTE

Professor Eva is being affected too.

(looks at them)

I find it hard to believe this is just because.

CHRIS

Whatever do you mean?

CHARLOTTE

Ella and I got the impression that one of the students is behind this.

LEO

Who?

CHARLOTTE

It’s related to Lora somehow.

WYATT

Is Lora the first?

Charlotte nods. Ella walks in.

ELLA

I had to slap her. Professor Eva.

Everyone looks at Ella.

ELLA (CONT’D)

She summoned an athame and wanted to cut herself.

LEO

God.

WYATT

Okay, let’s split up. If this is related to Lora then there must be something among her stuff.

CHARLOTTE

Try Bonnie.

They all look at Charlotte, not understanding.

CHARLOTTE (CONT’D)

Bonnie called Lora dirty blood.

PANDORA

Dirty blood?

ELLA

Lora is half-demon.

PANDORA

Oh. Wait, that’s ---

CHRIS

Prejudice.

Ella nods.

WYATT

Where’s that Bonnie?

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Bailey comes in.

BAILEY

I know where she is.

They all glance at Bailey.

BAILEY (CONT’D)

And she needs to be stopped quickly, otherwise, she’ll destroy the entire school.

CUT TO:

EXT. SAN FRANCISCO - ALLEY - EVENING

Junior comes. He stops. Serious.

JUNIOR

It took you long enough to meet me this time.

OFF TO SOMEONE - This other man is on his back. He turns around and ---

BEAT. It is Christopher. He wears a hoody.

CHRISTOPHER

Hello, son.

Junior rushes to Christopher and embraces his biological father. They part.

JUNIOR

I was worried. It’s been a month since you last checked.

CHRISTOPHER

I couldn’t come sooner.

JUNIOR

Don’t you have a phone?

CHRISTOPHER

I’m sorry, son. I just ---

JUNIOR

Christopher?

Christopher stares at Junior.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

Is everything okay?

Christopher sighs.

CHRISTOPHER

It will be.

JUNIOR

It will be?

(mad)

Dad ---

CHRISTOPHER

They are just planning a big thing. But they are not telling me much. I want to get closer.

JUNIOR

What is it they are planning?

CHRISTOPHER

I haven’t figured the whole thing out. Once I do, I’ll tell you. I can jeopardize the entire operation just yet.

JUNIOR

But ---

CHRISTOPHER

No, son.

Junior shoots Christopher a look. Christopher holds his glance.

JUNIOR

Fine. Do you need anything?

CHRISTOPHER

No. I’m fine. And you? How are things going?

JUNIOR

Fine. Some things in the magical world, but nothing to worry about.

CHRISTOPHER

Okay. I’ll try to text more often.

JUNIOR

Good.

Christopher embraces Junior again.

JUNIOR (CONT’D)

You know that if you need me ---

Christopher looks at Junior.

CHRISTOPHER

I just have to say your name.

Junior nods.

JUNIOR

A whisper would be enough. I can sense it. Apparently, my whitelighter’s side has become more accurate lately.

CHRISTOPHER

I’m glad. Go now.

Junior nods. He then turns around and walks out.

SOUND - Christopher’s phone.

Christopher takes his phone from his pocket and reads the text. He grimaces.

CHRISTOPHER (CONT’D)

Melissa!

Christopher shakes his head and walks off.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - EVENING

The lights are off. Tamora ORBS in bringing Melinda and Prue. The three of them seem a little too happy. They laugh.

MELINDA

Seriously, Tam!

TAMORA

Now I got to the right place.

MELINDA

Did you?

Melinda glances around.

MELINDA (CONT’D)

Prue’s bedroom.

PRUE

Yeah, bed!

The three of them get on the bed leaning their backs against the headboard.

TAMORA

Now, seriously, Mel, why are you so reluctant to get married? Don’t you love Damon?

MELINDA

Of course, I do.

PRUE

She’s afraid of the married life.

MELINDA

I’m not. It’s just that, you see ---

(sighs)

--- with marriages comes children and ---

TAMORA

And?

Melinda stares at the ceiling. Melinda lets out a long sigh.

MELINDA

Damon is half-manticore.

TAMORA

We know that.

PRUE

We’ve known that for our entire life.

TAMORA

We have.

PRUE

Oh ---

Prue glances at Melinda who’s at her right.

PRUE (CONT’D)

You don’t want them to have pointing tongues!

Tamora laughs. Okay, they clearly had too much to drink.

TAMORA

But Damon doesn’t have a pointing tongue.

PRUE

He used to when a toddler.

TAMORA

I can’t remember.

PRUE

We were too young when the tongue became normal.

TAMORA

(to Melinda)

And you are afraid of a tongue? A tongue can do wonders.

Prue and Tamora glance at each other and laugh.

MELINDA

No. Oh c’mon. You two!

TAMORA

So?

MELINDA

What about the other things?

PRUE

Mel, c’mon. We’ve talked about it. Warren’s genes are stronger. Your kids will get powers from both sides, of course, but they won’t be all Manticores.

TAMORA

Yeah, besides, the genes only pass to boys. Not to the girls.

PRUE

Yeah, because of the male chromosome. Only manticore mothers can pass the genes to boys and girls.

TAMORA

Yeah.

(thinks)

Wait, how do we know that?

PRUE

Did you guys pay attention to Magic School classes at all?

MELINDA

I don’t remember that either and I’m pretty sure I would ‘cause I’ve been in love with Damon since I was a little girl.

PRUE

Oh, no, wait.

Prue thinks for a bit.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Damon questioned the demonology teacher once. I heard him explaining that to Wyatt and Chris.

Melinda and Tamora stare at Prue.

MELINDA

Are you sure about that?

PRUE

Totally.

MELINDA

Why didn’t you say?

PRUE

I’m pretty sure I did.

MELINDA

No, you didn’t.

PRUE

Yes, I did.

MELINDA

No, you didn’t.

TAMORA

I’m freaking out!

Melinda and Prue stare at Tamora.

MELINDA

Wait, you?

TAMORA

I’m marrying a whitelighter.

PRUE

I’m married to one.

TAMORA

Half.

Prue shrugs.

TAMORA (CONT’D)

He’s immortal. I’ll grow old.

MELINDA

Oh.

PRUE

You will.

TAMORA

I will.

PRUE

But you are part whitelighter. We don’t age like normal people. I mean, white hair and wrinkles take time to show up.

TAMORA

But I’ll get old.

MELINDA

We all will.

All three of them nod.

TAMORA

In twenty years it won’t be us anymore.

(pauses)

Saving people, hunting demons, the family business.

MELINDA

I like that motto, but I've heard before somewhere else.

PRUE

We can turn that into the Warrens’ motto.

(sighs)

We need to raise them well.

TAMORA

Yeah. I don’t want to talk about kids.

MELINDA

I don’t want to think about kids.

PRUE

I don’t have that pleasure. I have to talk and I have to think about kids. Where are mines, anyway?

MELINDA

Magic School.

PRUE

Right. Maybe we should go for them.

MELINDA

Chris is supposed to bring them home.

Melinda and Tamora lean their heads on Prue’s shoulder each.

TAMORA

We need to find a girlfriend for Chris.

MELINDA

What about Ella?

PRUE

He loves Bianca.

MELINDA

Bianca is gone.

PRUE

But he still hurts for her.

TAMORA

So, no Ella?

PRUE

Not yet, anyway.

They start getting sleepy.

TAMORA

When?

PRUE

I don’t know.

MELINDA

Prue?

PRUE

Huh?

The eyes start closing.

MELINDA

Don’t let him take what’s yours.

She means Colton. Prue leans her head back.

PRUE

I won’t.

All three of them fall asleep.

CHARLOTTE

We are waiting, Bailey.

Bailey looks at them.

LEO

What is it that you know?

BAILEY

She said she was getting payback.

LEO

How?

BAILEY

I don’t know. She always hated Lora.

WYATT

Yeah, but this is not about Lora. The whole school is being affected.

CHARLOTTE

Bailey, tell us everything you know.

LEO

It is important.

Bailey thinks for a few seconds.

BAILEY

She found a book.

LEO

What book?

BAILEY

I don’t know. A couple of weeks ago she showed it to me. Only the cover. She said there were a lot of creatures there that she could use to torment Lora.

LEO

What kind of creatures?

BAILEY

I don’t know.

They give her a pointed look.

BAILEY (CONT’D)

I swear.

(pauses)

She carries it everywhere. But before, when Miss Halliwell interrogated us about what happened to Lora ---

Charlotte nods.

BAILEY (CONT’D)

Bonnie left her stuff in the classroom. I saw it and once she left I had a look at it.

WYATT

What did you see?

BAILEY

Nothing. As soon as I touched the book I got goosebumps.

Wyatt and Charlotte glance at each other. Leo stares seriously at Bailey.

LEO

(reading her)

There’s more, isn’t it?

Bailey nods.

BAILEY

She was with Miss Carson before Miss Carson went all mad.

LEO

She didn’t go all mad. Something happened to her.

Bailey nods.

CHARLOTTE

What could it be?

LEO

I don’t know, but it’s related to that book.

WYATT

A book, dad?

LEO

Some books are brought here and not stored in a safe place.

WYATT

(to Bailey)

Do you know where Bonnie is?

BAILEY

I haven’t seen her since Miss Carson’s class.

CHARLOTTE

We should better go look for her.

WYATT

I need to take my kids out of here.

CHARLOTTE

Of course.

Wyatt rushes out of the office.

LEO

WYATT

Are you sure?

CHRIS

Totally.

What you asked me to. Tormenting those who pissed you off.

BONNIE

The whole school has become a living hell. Everybody is going crazy.

FELLA

That’s my voice. Inside their heads. You see, that’s what they hear. My true voice.

BONNIE

Your true voice?

FELLA

It’s terrifying. I ended an entire village back in the thirteenth century.

(smiles)

Using my true voice.

Bonnie swallows.

FELLA (CONT’D)

(gets serious)

There are witches. They want to stop me.

BONNIE

They will. The Warrens.

FELLA

A witch trapped me in that book.

(stares seriously at Bonnie)

Where did you put it? The book?

BONNIE

Why?

FELLA

You must destroy it. I can’t go back there.

BONNIE

Destroy it?

Fella nods.

FELLA

Quickly.

BONNIE

No.

Fella shoots her a look.

FELLA

No?

Bonnie shakes her head terrified.

FELLA (CONT’D)

That’s not the answer I was hoping to get from my friend.

BONNIE

I didn’t ask you to terrify the whole school.

FELLA

Oh, I must. The more they scream, the stronger I get.

(evil)

Destroy the book.

BONNIE

(swallows)

No.

Fella approaches Bonnie.

They stare seriously at each other.

ELLA

Chris, I don’t want you to think that I hold any hope that you and I ---

CHRIS

I know, El.

Chris grabs Ella’s hand.

CHRIS (CONT’D)

It’s okay.

(smiles)

I need to get the kids and go home.

Ella nods. Chris lets go of her hand and stands. He walks off.

OFF TO CASSANDRA - She’s staring at one of the bookcases.

Charlotte approaches her.

CHARLOTTE

What are you doing?

Cassandra glances at her and forces a smile.

CASSANDRA

I need a book about amulets.

CHARLOTTE

I don’t want to hear about books. Ask Uncle Leo.

Charlotte walks away. Cassandra stares at her and sighs. Cassandra then walks over to Leo.

OFF TO PANDORA - She’s near Ella.

Charlotte comes closer.

PANDORA

I’m telling you. She orbed from the nursery here. And Matt too.

ELLA

Wow. Well, I guess they take after their parents.

PANDORA

Yeah, but they were almost a year away in the plane of nothingness.

CHARLOTTE

Maybe I should ask Tina to vanquish uncle Colton.

PANDORA

Charlie!

CHARLOTTE

What? He’s bad news. A demon.

ELLA

That's prejudice, Charlie. Haven't we had enough of that for one day?

Ella and Pandora glance at each other. Charlotte sighs.

ON CHARLOTTE - She’s serious.

CUT TO:

INT. MELISSA’S CAR - NIGHT

Melissa is at the wheel.

OFF TO CHRISTOPHER - He gets into the car.

Christopher and Melissa look at each other.

CHRISTOPHER

What’s so urgent?

MELISSA

I got a green light.

Christopher shoots her a look.

MELISSA (CONT’D)

You need to get me in.

Christopher stares seriously at her.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - WYATT & PRUE’S BEDROOM - NIGHT

Melinda and Tamora are sound asleep. Prue tries to slide off the bed without waking them up.

OFF TO THE ENTRANCE - Wyatt walks in and stops as she sees Prue coming out of the bed.

Prue finally manages to get out of the bed and turns around. She sees Wyatt there. She tiptoes towards him and motions him to get out of the bedroom. Wyatt is confused.

CUT TO:

INT. HALLIWELL MANOR - CORRIDOR - NIGHT (CONTINUOUS)

Wyatt and Prue come from the bedroom. Wyatt turns to Prue.

WYATT

Can you tell me why my sister and our cousin are sleeping in our bed?

Prue tries to keep her eyes open.

PRUE

We kinda had a rough day.

Wyatt feels her breath.

WYATT

You’ve been drinking?

PRUE

No?

Wyatt shoots her a look.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Yes?

WYATT

Prue!

PRUE

It was just a bit. We haven’t done that in centuries.

Wyatt crosses his arms over his chest.

PRUE (CONT’D)

The three of us were in need of a different day away from responsibilities.

Prue shoots him a puppy eyes glare.

PRUE (CONT’D)

I have no idea what they gave me to drink.

Wyatt smiles.

PRUE (CONT’D)

Where are the girls?

WYATT

I already put them to sleep.

PRUE

Matt and Nix?

WYATT

They will stay with Chris tonight.

PRUE

Great.

WYATT

Honey?

Prue looks at Wyatt.

WYATT (CONT’D)

We had a situation at Magic School.

Prue suddenly gets worried.

PRUE

The girls ---

WYATT

(grabs her arms)

It’s fine. They are fine.

They stare at each other.

WYATT (CONT’D)

They are actually more than fine.

Prue doesn’t understand.

WYATT (CONT’D)

Tina. She was able to use empathy and channel the demon’s power against the demon. She vanquished the demon alone.

Prue is surprised.

PRUE

She what?

WYATT

She reminded me of you. So, brave. Courageous.

Prue stares astonished at him.

WYATT (CONT’D)

(cups her face)

Just like you.

PRUE

Just like me?

Wyatt smiles and nods.

PRUE (CONT’D)

She’s ---

(smiles)

--- brave.

WYATT

She was great, love.

Prue smiles. Wyatt wraps his arms around her and hugs her tightly.

PRUE

Just like me.

ON PRUE’S FACE - She’s thoughtful.

CUT TO:

EXT. SAN FRANCISCO - NIGHT

STILL FOOTAGE at the Golden Gate Bridge.

CUT TO:

INT. THE UPPER REGIONS - NIGHT

Sebastian walks back and forth. It seems like he has been like that for hours. He seems tired.

OFF TO AN ELDER - Fiona comes making a haste.

Sebastian turns around and sees her approaching.

SEBASTIAN

Fiona?

FIONA

Sebastian.

SEBASTIAN

I was expecting ---

FIONA

I know. But I was asked to take care of this.

SEBASTIAN

Take care of what? I don’t know what is it about, but Wyatt ---

FIONA

(cuts him off)

Is in big trouble.

Sebastian stares seriously at her.

FIONA (CONT’D)

We weren’t ready for something like this. I don’t even know how this came to happen. The prophecy only mentioned one ---

Fiona seems worried.

SEBASTIAN

Fiona?

Fiona looks at him.

SEBASTIAN (CONT’D)

What’s going on?

Fiona takes a deep breath.

FIONA

We’ve spoken to a higher power than us.

SEBASTIAN

Higher power?

FIONA

If you ever become an Elder, maybe you’ll have the chance to meet them.

SEBASTIAN

Meet who? What’s going on?

FIONA

They have answers for everything.

SEBASTIAN

Who are they, Fiona?

FIONA

It doesn’t matter. The point is ---

(takes a deep breath)

--- there’s another.

SEBASTIAN

Another what?

FIONA

Prue’s place it’s not at risk. She’s a Twice Blessed witch, no doubt.

Sebastian is confused.

FIONA (CONT’D)

Her mate ---

SEBASTIAN

Wyatt?

FIONA

(nods)

It doesn’t necessarily mean soul mate.

Sebastian is confused.

FIONA (CONT’D)

It can also mean an equal.

SEBASTIAN

What?

FIONA

(swallows)

There is another Twice Blessed witch.

It hits Sebastian.

SEBASTIAN

Colton?

Fiona nods.

FIONA

Phoebe’s not so unborn child was conceived on the same day as Wyatt. And was born on the same day and at the same time as Wyatt.

SEBASTIAN

What?

FIONA

There are two first-born Twice Blessed witches. But ---

Fiona is serious.

SEBASTIAN

But what?

FIONA

There’s only one place for one of them. Only one.

Sebastian and Fiona stare seriously at each other. Both of them are worried.

THE CAMERA MOVES UP AND AWAY FROM THEM.

CUTS TO BLACK.
