First Prelude: Lincoln Medical Center, The Bronx, New York City - March 5, 1998
Room 317B, Seventh Floor
“Push, Ms. Halliwell, it’s half-way out.” A female doctor said.
“I’m trying! Oh Clay, you suck, you suck, you suck!” She screamed in agony.
“Come on Phoebe, you’ve got this.” Clay said, trying to help Phoebe get the baby out.
“Almost there, Ms. Halliwell. One more big push and it’ll be all over.” The same doctor said.
Phoebe stopped pushing to take a breath and gave one more push, a big one and she felt the baby leave her body.
“It’s out! Very good, Ms. Halliwell!” The doctor handed the baby to her assistant nurse, who took the baby to clean it up.
“You did it, Phoebe.” Clay said, from where was sitting beside her. Phoebe didn’t respond since she was trying to catch her breath, so she only nodded and smiled.
“Congratulations Mr. Muniz and Ms. Halliwell, it’s a boy!” The doctor said, coming back with the baby.
“I have a son!” Clay said, happily.
“Can I hold him?” Phoebe asked.
The doctor nodded and handed the newborn to Phoebe. The baby was swaddled in a light blue blanket. His eyes were open and scanning his surroundings, looking for the people who brought him into the world.
“Hi baby!” Phoebe said, smiling at her son as tears started to slide down her face. The baby looked up into his mother’s eyes and he made a cooing noise. “Would you like to hold him?” She asked, looking over to bring Clay into view.
“Yes.” Phoebe handed the baby over to Clay, who looked like he was about to break down in joyous emotion. “Hello my son, you are so beautiful. Just like your mother.” Clay said and looked up at Phoebe, who smiled back. “I can’t believe I’m actually holding you.”
“Excuse me, Mr. Muniz and Ms. Halliwell. I hate to interrupt this celebration, but I need a name for his birth certificate.” The doctor that delivered the baby, said.
“Oh.” Phoebe looked to Clay. “Well, I was thinking..Pyper Clayton Muniz-Halliwell. Pip for short.” Phoebe smiled at Clay, telling him that she’d made up her mind and wasn’t changing it.
“I love it.” Clay says.
John F. Kennedy International Airport, New York City: March 5, 2015 - Present Day
“I know Pip. It’s just gonna be different without you around.” CLAY MUNIZ says. The years had been kind to him and he appears to have grown quite marvelously. He still has his handsome face and his athletic build. He is now forty-six.
“I know. But I haven’t got the chance to meet my mother. And if she’s okay with it, I’ll stay with her for awhile so we can get to know each other.”
“Attention. Flight 445 to San Francisco is now boarding. All passengers, please make your way to the boarding station. The flight will be leaving in five minutes.” A male voice booms through the intercom system of the airport.
“I’ve got to go. I love you Dad, I’m gonna miss you so much.” Pip says and hugs his father.
“I love you too, son. I’m gonna miss you too.” Clay says hugging Pip back and then releasing him. “Call me, when you land so I know you made it there safely.”
“I will. I promise.” Pip says, reassuringly.
“Attention, last call for passengers boarding Flight 445 to San Francisco. All passengers need to board now.” The same male voice says through the intercoms.
“Goodbye Dad.” Pip says.
“Goodbye son. Tell your mother I said ‘hello’.” Clay says.
“I will.” And on that Pip turns with his suitcase and rushes to the boarding gate.

Second and Last Prelude: Northern California - March 25, 1998
Phoebe sighed, dreading the confrontation to come. She couldn’t ever tell her oldest sister, Prue, about Pip. That would only add to Prue’s overseeing of her as a slut and would probably fuse the ripple that Roger started, when he claimed that she tried to advance on him. She could tell Piper, she wouldn’t judge or hate her younger sister for having a child. Piper loved kids and couldn’t wait to have her own someday. She would only ask why she didn’t bring him with her and probably try to talk her into bringing him to the Manor. She had to keep Pip a secret for the years to come and tell her sisters when they’d all be a lot older. When Pip would be a lot older.
Halliwell Manor, San Francisco, California - Present Day
She was in the middle of wiping up some spilled orange juice when the doorbell rang. “Who could that be?”
She scurries to the door, to keep from making the visitor wait. She opens the door and was greeted by a teenager with a suitcase. “Can I help you?”
“Yes, are you Phoebe Halliwell?” The teenager asks.
“No, I’m her sister. Piper Halliwell.” She says. “And you are?”
“My name is Pyper Clayton Muniz-Halliwell. But you can call me Pip.”
Piper looks strangely at the teen who identified himself as a Halliwell. Surely she would know if she had any other relatives with the family last name. “Look kid, I don’t know—“
“I’m Phoebe’s son. I’m sure you remember my father..Clay Muniz.”
Piper’s jaw drops when the name flows through ears. She should’ve realized that when he had also identified himself as a Muniz.
Halliwell Manor - Front Door
“Why don’t you come in, Pip. I’ll call your mother and we’ll get this straightened out.” Piper says, inviting Pip in.
“Thanks, Aunt Piper.” Pip says, causing Piper to halt but keep walking.
“Who was at the door?” LEO WYATT asks, bounding the stairs.
“Leo, do you remember when Prue, Phoebe and I went up against that Egyptian Urn lady.”
“Is she back?”
“No..no..well I hope not. Anyway, remember the innocent..Clay Muniz?” Piper asks her husband.
“Vaguely..didn’t he and Phoebe have like—a thing?” Leo asks.
“Yeah, well, meet your nephew..Pip. He is Phoebe and Clay’s son.”
Leo looks at Pip in shock. “Leo, what is it?” Piper asks.
“Uhm—nothing.” He says to Piper. “Its nothing, really.” He turns and says to Pip, who looks at him peculiarly.
“Leo..?” Piper asks. Leo pulls Piper aside, and out of Pip’s hearing distance. “Leo, what’s wrong?”
“Pip is blessed.”
“What?” Piper asks, confused.
“There was a prophecy I’d heard about in my early white-lighter days. It told of a boy, born from the scorned love of a witch and a mortal. He would be chosen to protect the world from evil. I believe Pip is that boy. I know he is, I can feel it.”
“Are you sure? He probably doesn’t even know that magic exists.” Piper says.
“I’m positive.” Leo says.
“I’ll call Phoebe and get her over here. I can’t wait to see how she’s gonna explain this.” Piper muses.
Halliwell Manor - Living Room, Mid-Afternoon
Phoebe rounds the corner and enters the living room. “Piper?” She takes in the boy sitting on the couch. “Who’s this? Is there a demon we have to vanquish? I thought we were done with that.”
“Phoebe! This is your son…you know the one you had with Clay..” Piper says.
Phoebe looks to the young teen. He looked so much like her when she was younger, she couldn’t even begin to believe that he was sitting in front of her. She should’ve guessed that this was coming at some point. “Pip?”
“Hi Mom…how’s it going?” Pip greets his mother. He stands up and slowly engulfs her in a hug. She slowly returns it and is hit with a premonition.
A page turns in the Book of Shadows, ‘Dominus Trinus’, the same incantation she used in order for herself, Piper and Prue to get their powers. It changes to some creature, suddenly opening their eyes.
The premonition ends immediately.
“Mom, are you okay?” Pip asks.
“I’m fine, sweetie.” Phoebe says, reassuringly. Though Pip knew she was lying straight through her teeth. “How’s your dad?”
“He’s great. He told me to tell you that he says ‘hello’.” Pip says. “Which reminds me, I need to call him and let him know I made it here.” He steps out of the living room to call his father.
After Pip had left the living room. Piper hops on Phoebe’s case immediately, she knew her sister had a premonition. “Okay, Phoebe spill. What did you see?”
“It wasn’t much to really go on. I saw the spell in the Book of Shadows that gave us our powers and then some creature suddenly opening their eyes.” Phoebe says.
“Perhaps that when Pip reads the spell to get his powers, a new demonic force that he’ll have to go up against is going to awaken.” Leo suggests. “Phoebe, Pip is blessed. A prophecy foretold his birth and that he would have to protect the world from evil. I can feel it radiating from him. He doesn’t know it though.”
“So we tell him the truth? Lay all of it on him? Is that what you’re suggesting? Leo, he’s just a kid. I don’t want my son to go through what I did..what we all did. That’s not fair.” Phoebe argues back.
“Just think of what danger you’re putting him in by denying him access to his powers. I’m no longer a white-lighter but I could still sense it coming from him. If I can, then you know the Underworld has to have felt his arrival. If not, it will when he receives his powers. Demons and warlocks will be on him the moment they realize who he is.” Leo counters.
Piper reluctantly steps in. “Phoebe, I hate this as much as you do. But Leo is right, Pip needs his powers to protect himself from the evils that’ll be coming for him. If you don’t allow him access to his powers, he’ll be dead as soon as he crosses paths with his first warlock. Remember what Jeremy said..”
“That there were many of them and they would keep coming until we were dead.” Phoebe finishes for Piper.
In the foyer, Pip is dialing a number. It rings twice before someone picks up on the other line. “Dad?”
“Pip? Thank god. I’ve been waiting for your call.”
“I know, I’m sorry I didn’t call as soon as I landed. I’m at the Manor with Mom.”
“How is she?” Clay asks from the other end.
“She’s fine, just a little shocked to see me.”
“Well, she hasn’t seen you since you were born. Give her a little time to adjust and she’ll welcome you in open arms.” Clay says.
“Okay Dad. I’ve got to go. I love you.”
“I love you too, Pip.” Clay says.
“Bye.”
“Bye, son.”
Halliwell Manor - Late Afternoon; Early Evening
“Heida, let’s just take the Book. Forget our boss and the kid, and become the next rulers of the Underworld.”
“Dreyl, as much as I’d love to do that, the Book protects itself from evil. Besides, the kid has to receive his powers so Juno can awaken. And when he awakens, he’ll reward us greatly.”
Pip listens from outside the door as the two people converse. He decides to stop them from whatever they’re doing. He puts his hand on the doorknob, opens it and bursts through. “What are you doing up here?”
HEIDA and DREYL were emitting a green light from their hands, which were extended over the large green book, they look up at Pip. Heida smirks. “Well look at who we have here. The Blessed One. Powerless I might add.”
“What are you talking about? And I don’t think you’re supposed to be up here.” Pip says.
“You have no power to be telling us what to do. Once you receive your powers, Juno will be on you and your family in a heartbeat. He will finally end the Halliwell line..forever.” Dreyl says.
In the time that Dreyl was talking, Heida had shimmered out and back in behind Pip. “Boo!” Pip jumps but Heida grabs his wrists and puts an athame to his throat. “Scream and I’ll kill you right now.” He stays quiet. “Good boy.”
Heida brings Pip over to the Book. Dreyl raises his hands and a wind blows the pages in the Book to a page at the front. Its titled ‘Dominus Trinus’. Dreyl chants something in Latin and the words change. “Read this, aloud. Now.” Heida demands, tightening her grip on Pip’s wrists.
“Ow. Fine..I’ll do it. Just don’t hurt me.” Pip says. On the verge of tears, Pip reads the incantation from the Book.
“Hear now the words of the witches, the secrets we hid in the night. The oldest of gods are invoked here, the great work of magic is sought. In this night and in this hour, I call upon the ancient power. Bring your powers to me, I want the power, give me the power.”
Downstairs on the ground floor, Piper, Phoebe and Leo are searching everywhere for Pip. “Pip?” Phoebe calls out for her son. “Where is he?”
“Something’s happening.” Piper says. “Something’s changed. I can feel it.”
“The Book of Shadows.” Leo says. The three of them run to the stairs but are engulfed in a bright red light from the chandelier. “He's found the Book. He’s getting his powers.”
“How? He doesn’t even know about magic.” Phoebe exclaims.
“Perhaps we’re not the only ones who know about Pip's new secret…” Piper says.
The Manor begins shaking as an earthquake begins. Various items in the Manor are effected by the earthquake. Leo grabs Phoebe and Piper and pulls them under the dining room entryway. Outside of the Manor, the city of San Francisco reels through the earthquake as well. People scurry for cover and cars halt to a stop which almost result in accidents.
The Underworld - Juno’s Cave
The owner of the eyes, seen in Phoebe’s premonition, reforms from the shell-like remains. JUNO, a feared demon of centuries’ past, smiles. “Its great to be back.” He cracks his knuckles.
Halliwell Manor - The Attic
“Let go of him!” Phoebe yells, running at Heida, getting ready to levitate and kick her off of Pip; however Dreyl sends Phoebe flying into one of the attic’s walls with his powers.
“Mom!” Pip cries.
“I told you to shut up.” Heida says, angrily. “I didn’t wanna have to do this, but you leave me no choice.” She hits Pip in the back of the head, making him fall unconscious to the floor. “That will keep you quiet.”
“Hey!” Piper yells at Heida and gains her attention. She flicks her wrist and blows Heida up.
“NO!” Dreyl screams in anguish at seeing his partner being vanquished. Dreyl shimmers out.
Leo goes to help Phoebe up and Piper tends to Pip. “Leo. Something’s wrong, he’s not waking up.”
“No, no, no.” Phoebe cries, tears welling up in her eyes. “This can’t be happening. I can’t lose him, I’ve only just met him after so long.”
“I think I can help.” A familiar voice says from behind the trio. They look to see a missed face, someone who was lost many years ago.
“Andy?” Phoebe asks. ANDY TRUDEAU had been killed by the demon Rodriguez nearly sixteen years ago. Phoebe still remembers how bad her older sister, Prue, had taken it. “What are you doing here?”
“I’m Pip’s white-lighter.”
Halliwell Manor - The Attic
“Well what are you waiting for? Heal him!” Phoebe demands.
“Right.” Andy says, rushing to Pip’s side and placing his hands over the back of Pip’s head. However, Andy’s healing power doesn’t work. His hands are shocked by the wound and he is thrown back away from Pip.
“What just happened? Leo, why isn’t Andy able to heal Pip?” Phoebe desperately asks.
“Perhaps the demon Piper vanquished, did something to injure Pip and block him from being healed. She must’ve knew that as soon as Pip received his powers, his white-lighter was going to be immediately sent here.”
“But she’s been vanquished, it should reverse.” Piper says.
“Unless, its the doing of an upper-level demon.” Andy suggests, coming back over to them. “I’m fine by the way.”
“Oh, Andy. I’m sorry, Its just easy to forget that you’re not really alive anymore.” Phoebe apologizes to the former cop.
“Then what do you suppose we do to find out who this demon is?” Piper asks. “I mean the only person who might actually have information..is Pip. He must’ve found the attic when he was looking for us. We did desert him in the Manor..alone might I add.”
“All we did was take to the kids to Magic School. We weren’t even gone but a few seconds.” Phoebe says. After the mess with demons taking over Magic School and the Ultimate Battle, a door to Magic School was installed in the basement so Leo wouldn’t have to rely Paige or Coop taking him back and forth.
“Time works differently here than it does at Magic School, a few seconds there is a few minutes here.” Andy says. “It was created by an Elder. Since time works differently up there, it’d make sense that it would there also.”
“So Leo? Andy? Got any suggestions to how we can talk to Pip?” Phoebe asks.
Both Leo and Andy look at each other, they both had extensive knowledge of the Book of Shadows. Leo, from seeing it for so many years; and Andy, from Prue’s informing before he left the heavenly realm.
“There’s a spell in the Book to swap souls with another person.” Leo says. “Though you have to be blood-related through maternal relation.”
“And it requires the Power of Three to work. Which means Phoebe can’t perform the spell since she will be in it.” Andy says.
“Andy, what are you saying?” Piper asks.
“It's time.” Andy says. “But you’ll need Paige to summon her.”
Piper and Phoebe blanche. They had never thought they’d ever get to their big sister again. “Prue.” They both say.
A bit later, everyone is regathered in the Attic with PAIGE MATTHEWS, after separating her from one of her charges. Paige had gone on to decide working on her white-lighter side and is now helping young witches come into their own. She was also now the mother of three children: Tamora and Kat Mitchell, and Henry Mitchell Junior. Paige had been in the middle of a hover-meditation session with one of her charges, when her sisters called for her. It distracted her and she ended up dropping herself as well as her charge from a few feet in the air. She gave her sisters a good yelling at when she arrived, but ceased when she saw how upset Phoebe was about her long-lost son being injured by a demon.
“Are you sure this is gonna work?” Paige asks. “I better not have left Taniyah for no reason.” TANIYAH is Paige’s Jamaican charge. Taniyah is a neophyte witch, only receiving her powers several weeks earlier.
“We wouldn’t call you away from one of your charges, if it wasn’t important.” Phoebe says.
“Apparently the Elders are temporarily letting us see Prue, but only for this. Once Pip and Phoebe go back into their bodies, Prue has to leave.” Piper says.
“Ready?” Phoebe asks. They had moved Pip to a couch in the attic and then set up the materials to perform the summoning spell.
“Ready as I’ll ever be.” Piper says.
“Ditto.” Paige says.
Leo and Andy stood quietly near Pip, watching the sisters summon their deceased older sister from the beyond.
“Hear these words, hear our cry. Spirit from the other side, come to us who call you near. Come to us and settle here. Now so cross the Great Divide.”
The three sisters chant and for the first time, bright white lights swirl in, taking form of the one and only...PRUDENCE HALLIWELL.
“Oh, blessed be.” She says to her sisters who stare back, eyes wide and mouths agape, in shock.
Halliwell Manor - The Attic
“P-Pr-Prue?” Piper stutters out. “Oh my god.” She runs to her older sister, who steps out of the circle and becomes corporal. Piper engulfs Prue in a big hug, Phoebe follows suit, both holding onto their older sister for dear life.
“Oh Prue!” Phoebe says. “I’m so sorry, you would still be alive if I hadn’t chose to stay with Cole in the Underworld, over you and Piper.”
“Phoebe. Stop. You had every right to choose Cole. You chose him out of love, you had hope that he still had good in him and you had very good intentions to do so.” Prue says to Phoebe. “And I also would’ve never judged you for having Pip at such a young age.”
“How did you know that? And of course you would’ve.” Phoebe says.
“When I crossed into the afterlife, I gained a lot of knowledge..things you and Piper kept secret. Though I won’t reveal such things as I’ve also gained future knowledge and if I say anything that goes against the rules, the Elders will take my spirit and recycle it.” Prue says. “I also guess you’re kind of right. I would’ve of judged you, but I would’ve gotten over it because Pip would’ve been and is more important than some stupid sisterly fight.”
“Oh Prue.” Phoebe says, clutching onto Prue harder.
Leo comes up behind Prue and wraps his arms around her. “Hello Prue.”
“Hey Leo, nice orbs.” Prue says to the former white-lighter behind her. Leo blushes, causing Piper and Phoebe to giggle, and Paige and Andy to form a ‘wtf’ expression.
“Okay, Piper, Phoebe, Leo. I believe there is someone I have yet to meet.” Prue says. Paige looks at Prue, unsure of what to do. Prue walks over to Paige. “Hello Paige. Its so great to finally meet you. Also stop trying to fill my shoes and comparing yourself to me. That is not fair to you. Stay in your shoes, trying to be like I was is putting more on your shoulders than you should ever have to handle. Instead, make your shoes bigger than mine. Do better than me, keep doing better than me.”
Paige smiles as tears roll down her eyes, she nods and embraces Prue, and the latter embraces her baby sister in return.
“I hate to interrupt the reunion but we have to perform the soul swapping spell.” Andy says. “My charge has information we need.”
“Right.” Prue says. “And hello to you Andy.”
“Hey Prue.” Andy says.
“Do we need to give two a minute alone?” Piper asks.
“No. When I left the heavenly realm, Prue wanted us to end as friends.” Andy says.
Piper and Phoebe raise an eyebrow at Prue.
“When Andy died, I was able to move on. Now he should have the same chance I did, it wouldn’t be fair if he didn’t.” Prue says. “Andy, the Elders are going to allow you to find love. And trust me, you won’t be looking far. You’re gonna find someone who will love you and accept you for..you know..how you are now.” He smiles. “Now let’s perform this spell before the Elders take me back and then we can’t.”
Prue, having been given her Wiccan abilities temporarily, telekinetically lifts open the ritual chest and several different colored candles come out and form a circle around the couch. Once they land on the ground, each wick is instantly lit.
Phoebe steps carefully between two candles and sits beside her unconscious son. She grabs his right hand and grips it firmly in her left. Prue, Piper, and Paige gather around the Book of Shadows. “Don’t worry son, you’re going to be just fine.”
“Phoebe, remember, by putting your soul into his body, you won’t be able to communicate with us. You’ll be unconscious as he is is now and it's possible you could die before you’re switched back.” Andy says.
“I know, but at least Pip will be alive. He is more important than my being right now.” Phoebe says. She looks at Pip and kisses the hand she’s holding. “When you’re awake, please do not worry about me. I’ll be fine.” Phoebe looks to her sisters. “Do it.”
“What's hers is his, what's his is hers. From parent to child, and child to parent. Let their souls cross the line. In the Power of Three we now decree so their gifts can be offered for share, now switch their souls through the air.”
Prue, Piper, and Paige chant.Phoebe leans back and her eyes close. A white, glowing orb leaves Phoebe’s and Pip’s bodies, and float up above them. Pip’s soul shoots into Phoebe’s body and Phoebe’s soul shoots into Pip’s body. Suddenly PIP/PHOEBE wakes up. “Mom! Is Mom okay?” Pip/Phoebe says, but goes quiet when he hears who’s voice he is speaking with. “Uh, what’s going on?”
“Welcome back, Pip.” Piper says. “How ya’ feeling?”
Pip/Phoebe looks around scared. “What’s going on?”
“Depends. What do you remember?” Andy asks his charge.
“Who are you?” Pip/Phoebe asks. “Where’s my mom? Why am I talking like Mom?”
“Well that’s because you’re her, technically speaking.” Andy says.
“Who are you?” Pip/Phoebe demands. “Answer my question.”
“I’m your white-lighter.” Andy says. Pip/Phoebe looks at him in confusion.
“Pip, a white-lighter is a guardian angel for witches.” Leo says, cutting in to help Andy. “You’re a witch, Pip. That man and woman that were here, they were demons. They made you cast the power spell in the Book so you’d receive your powers.”
“Uh, yeah, the woman said I was something called the Blessed One.” Pip/Phoebe says.
“Yeah, a prophecy was written long ago and told of a boy who would be born from the scorned love of a witch and a mortal. He would be given powers to protect the world from evil.” Leo says.
“Who are they?” Pip/Phoebe asks, referring to Prue and Paige.
“I’m Prue and this Paige.” Prue says and Paige gives a wave. “We are your aunts. Though I’m a spirit, I’m only here to help you get back into your body when you defeat your demon, then I go back to the heavens.”
“Uh-huh.” Pip/Phoebe says nodding slowing. “You’re all crazy. Magic, witches, demons..none of that is real. So why don’t you tell me the truth.”
“Well look beside you.” Paige suggests.
Pip/Phoebe looks and sees his body. “Oh my god.”
“Believe us now?” Piper says.
“Okay, so maybe magic does exist. That doesn’t mean I have powers.”
“You do, well you should. Though you’ll have to find the trigger so you can vanquish the upper-level demon that’s after you.” Andy says.
“I remember something. The woman, she said something about when I received my powers her boss would awaken.” Pip/Phoebe says. “His name was..Jeno..Johnny..”
Leo’s demeanor changes “Juno?” He asks, nervously.
“Yes. That what his name was.”
“Leo, what’s wrong? You sound worried all of a sudden. I’m sure this Juno guy will be a quick Power of Three vanquish.” Piper says.
“Piper, Juno is a demon who has wrought destruction and death for ages. He’s wicked powerful and was incased into a impenetrable shell by the Source himself.”
“Like Piper said, we’ll kick his ass with the Power of Three and then send it to the Wasteland.” Prue says.
“The Power of Three can’t vanquish Juno without getting yourselves killed in the process. The Power of Three isn’t strong enough to vanquish Juno, that’s why Pip has to take him on. Pip is and will be stronger than the Power of Three, even if Prue was still in it.”
“Uncle Leo? You’re not telling them something.” Pip/Phoebe says. “Who is Zankou?”
“Zankou!?” Piper yells. “What about Zankou? Leo?”
“Juno is Zankou’s brother.” Leo says. “Thanks a lot Pip.” He says a bit mad.
“I think Pip is accessing Phoebe’s powers, he may not be actually using her individual powers, but they’re boosting his access to his own powers. By being in her body, his powers are gaining strength just because of how powerful Phoebe is.” Andy says. “Which is great, because if he can find a way to temporarily control her powers too, then he could match Juno’s level of power.”
“That’s my nephew.” Paige says, proudly.
“He’s a Halliwell.” Prue says, smiling.
“Let’s just hope it’ll be enough or else he and the rest of us will be dead.” Piper says, grimly.
The Underworld - Juno’s Cave
“Boss, are you sure this will work?” Dreyl, the same demon who ran in fright when Heida had been vanquished, asks.
“Once I put the Charmed Ones to sleep, the Halliwell’s will be easy picking. Their lovers will not be able to stop me and hence shall I resurrect my brother from the Wasteland.” Juno says. He picks up a book, this book was old and stained with dirt. “Thank you Source and Triad for the extra copies.” He laughs and flips a few pages of the book.
He picks up a photograph of Piper, Phoebe and Paige. He drops it in the beaker containing the glowing purple liquid. He begins chanting.
“Quod Expergiscimini, Solet Sopor Occupare Fati.”
Halliwell Manor - The Attic
“Sorry Aunt Piper.” Pip/Phoebe apologizes. He kept tapping into Prue’s, Piper’s, Phoebe’s, Paige’s and Andy’s individual powers. He'd accidentally thrown things around the attic, orbed, felt and revealed their emotions, levitated to the ceiling, and blown out a window. Now he'd blown up a chair. Piper couldn't stand it, this side effect was making a huge mess..that she'd have to clean up.
All of sudden, everything went quiet when two thumps are heard. Piper and Paige had fallen to the floor, unconscious just like Pip had earlier.
“Juno’s making his move.” Prue says.
Just as she finished saying that, a demon shimmered in. It was Dreyl. He conjured up a fireball and threw it at Piper.
“No!” Pip/Phoebe says. He puts his hand out and the fireball redirects itself into his hand. “Big mistake!” He sends it back at Dreyl and he is vanquished.
Pip turns around. He raises a hand at Prue. “Sleep!” She falls to the floor just like her sisters.
“Pip, what are you doing?” Leo asks.
“I need them, their powers, their souls.” Pip/Phoebe says. Extending both his arms, he calls for Piper, Prue, Phoebe, and Paige.
“Pip, doing this puts them, minus Prue, at risk of dying. I’m not sure I like this plan.” Leo says.
“Its a risk I have to take. Juno has to be stopped.” Pip/Phoebe says.
“That much power will run out quick. You’ll have to vanquish Juno fast and then release them back to their bodies.” Andy says.
“Got it.” Pip/Phoebe says. He orbs out.
The Underworld - Juno’s Cave
Juno turns around. “That’s not possible, you’re supposed to be asleep.”
“And you’re about to be vanquished.” PIP/PHOEBE/PIPER/PAIGE/PRUE says. His voice had changed immensely due to the souls inside of him.
“Dear god.” Juno says. He can see Piper, Phoebe, Paige, and Prue inside of Pip.
“Not quite, though I'm kind of heartbroken that your kind never gets to meet him either.” Pip says. His eyes are now a glowing aqua blue. He uses Prue’s telekinesis to send Juno flying against a wall. More souls descend from the ceiling above and enter Pip. His eyes turn a bright gold.
"I will stop you." Juno says, fake confidence in his voice. He gets back to his feet.
“You will not stop us. We are one of many. The Halliwell line will never be extinguished. We are Warrens, a powerful line of witches descending from Melinda Warren, a very powerful witch. We will keep descending for eternity. You try to kill us, but we vanquish you instead.” Pip’s voice not only had his mother’s, and aunts’, but now included the voices of countless Warren witches. While saying that, he’d been using his mother’s and his aunts’ powers against Juno, like throwing him back and forth against the cave walls.
“You cannot defeat me.” Juno says, throwing a fireball at Pip.
“Fireball!” Pip calls for the fireball using Paige’s telekinetic orbing. “The Underworld will fear the Halliwell line for eternity.” Pip and the witches of the Warren line say, enlarging the fireball, through Peri Russell's power of pyrokinesis, to a giant size. “Tell your brother that the Halliwells said ‘hi’”. Pip sends the fireball at Juno, vanquishing him in a big explosion.
He walks over to the Grimoire. “The Grimoire?! How did he find this?” Pip asks aloud, recalling his mother’s and aunts’ memories. Due to the power he has, he makes up a spell to break the protection shield the Grimoire has from good. “In the hands of evil no more, good shall hold you forevermore.” He chants and the Grimoire glows black and a shield breaks and incorporeal black shards go flying in every direction. A white shield then replaces the black one. “From now on, good will protect the Grimoire, keeping it from being touched by evil.” Pip and the Warren witches boom through the cave, causing a vibration through the cave's walls.
Pip picks up the Grimoire, smashes the sleeping potions and orbs out.
Halliwell Manor - The Attic
Paige sits up fast and gasps. “What happened?”
“Juno put you to sleep like he did Pip. Pip absorbed your souls and vanquished Juno.” Andy says, proudly. He looks to Pip in awe. “You are a god.”
“I felt them, countless Warrens. I felt Grams, Grandma Patty, and even Melinda Warren. They were coursing through me, strengthening my power to exceed Juno’s.”
“Next time, ask to borrow our souls before you yank them from us.” Piper says, dusting herself off.
"You have to cast the reversal spell, now, I feel like I'm dying." Pip says.
"I'm very proud of you sweetie." PHOEBE/PIP says. "You were remarkable. And you're right we need to hurry, I feel like I'm dying too." They sit down beside each other on the love seat they had been on when the soul swapping spell had been cast. Pip grabs his body's right hand and clutches it in his Mom's left hand.
"Hurry, aunties." Pip/Phoebe says.
Prue, Piper, and Paige return to the Book.
“What's his is hers, what's hers is his. From child to parent, and parent to child. Let their souls cross the line. In the Power of Three we now decree so their gifts can be offered for share, now switch their souls through the air.”
The three sisters chant.
Pip/Phoebe and Phoebe/Pip lean back and their eyes close. A white, glowing orb leaves Phoebe’s and Pip’s bodies, and float up above them. Pip’s soul shoots back into his body and Phoebe’s soul shoots back into her body. Suddenly both of them wake up.
“Finally! It’s so great to be me again.” Pip says, feeling himself.
“Tell me about it.” Phoebe says. "Though it wouldn't be the first time I've switched bodies with someone...Paige."
"I had said I was sorry, multiple times." Paige says.
"And it probably won't be your last." Prue says, looking at Pip.
Pip's eyes widen to the size of golf balls. "What?"
The four sisters laugh. Leo and Andy smile.
March 6: Halliwell Manor - Conservatory - Late Morning
“So Pip, how long do you think you’ll be in San Francisco?” Piper asks.
“Well Aunt Piper, I think after recent events..forever.” Pip says. “Assuming that Dad will be okay with my being a witch.”
“Well, we did save him from an angry Egyptian lady, so something tells me that he’s going to be okay with it.” Phoebe says.
A pink beam appears and a small heart forms the shape of a man. It’s COOP, Phoebe’s husband and Pip’s stepfather. “Phoebe!” Coop says. “I came to take you for a surprise lunch date.” He goes and kisses her. He notices Pip and can feel the great amount of power radiating from Pip. “Oh my god! You’re the—“
“Yeah. I’m also Phoebe’s son.” Pip says. “Hi, I’m Pip.”
Coop looks at Phoebe in surprise. “You had a son?”
“Yeah, his father, Clay, and I were together back in 1998 and we you know..” Phoebe says, explaining herself.
“Phoebe, you don’t have to explain anything. That was B.C., before Coop. I just wish you told me you’re son is the Blessed One.”
"If I had known then I would've said something." Phoebe says, defending herself.
“Oh, we should figure out where I’m staying. Since the condo is full..” Pip says. Phoebe had told her son that she had three daughters with Coop. Prudence Johanna, Parker Patricia, and Philippa Brianna Halliwell. Pip was thrilled to find out he had three sisters, step-sisters, but with how things worked in the family..they were his sisters.
“He can stay here at the Manor. That way he can have immediate access to the Book as well as potion and ritual stuff.” Piper says.
“Aunt Piper, I don’t know, I don’t want to be a burden.” Pip says, unsure if he should agree to staying at the Manor or not.
“Nonsense, we have plenty of space. Besides you’re a Halliwell and all Halliwells have lived in the Manor, which means you will not be the first one to break that tradition.” Piper says.
“If it's okay with Mom, then I’ll stay.” Pip says.
“Of course I’m okay with it. The Manor has kept the Halliwells for five generations, you have to stay here, especially while you learn to use your powers.” Phoebe says.
“Phoebe, we have to go or we’ll miss our lunch date. Pip, why don’t you come with us. We can celebrate you getting your powers and vanquishing your first demon.” Coop suggests.
“No, no. I don’t wanna intrude.” Pip says.
“That’s a great idea, honey.” Phoebe says to her husband. “Pip, you’re coming with us and that’s that. Besides your birthday was yesterday and you need to celebrate.” She says to her son. She grabs one of her son’s hands and pulls him with her and Coop. They leave the Manor and walk down the steps to Phoebe’s car.
As they get in the car, the Manor door closes as if someone used telekinesis to close it.
