Baker High School, San Francisco - March 19
“Thanks for the ride, Aunt Piper. Do you accept money for gas?” Pip asks.
Piper laughs. “Pip, you don’t have to pay me for taking you to school. I pass Baker everyday when I drop Wyatt and Chris off at Kennedy.”
“Okay, though I still feel like I should repay you.” Pip says.
“As long as you don’t leave me a mess to clean up at the Manor, that’ll be payment enough.” Piper says to her newfound nephew. “Now go on, you don’t wanna be late to the meeting with Principal Reynolds.
Pip opens the car door but turns back to his aunt “Bye Aunt Piper, are you or Mom going to be picking me up after school?”
“Probably me, which is fine.” Piper says. Pip looks away from her. “Pip, you have to understand that she’s really busy. She runs the Bay Mirror now, its a lot harder to get her away than it was for us back then.
Pip nods, sadly. “Its just..I came to San Francisco to spend time with my mom and so we could get to know each other. Not so I could become a witch and vanquish demons for the rest of my life.”
Piper inhales. “Ah, so that’s what this is about?” She puts a hand on Pip’s shoulder and he is hit with a premonition.
A younger past Piper opens a drawer and a bunch of stuff falls out. She’s talking on the phone, seemingly looking for something to write with. She looks to the floor and there’s an engagement ring among the junk. The image changes and the same ring though more worn lies under a table in the foyer of the Manor.
The premonition ends.
“What did you see?” Chris asks, bouncing from the backseat.
“Yeah, tell us.” Wyatt says, bouncing from his seat too. In that moment, all eyes were on Pip.
“I saw a younger you.” He says to his aunt. “You were on the phone and looking for something to write with, then you found a ring on the floor.” Pip says. He puts a hand to his forehand, trying to quickly recall the contents of the premonition before they left his mind. “Now the same ring is..under the table by the front door in the foyer.” Pip says.
Piper looks to her hand and indeed her engagement ring, which used to be her mother’s wedding ring, was in fact not on any of her fingers. “Oh my god!” She looks up at Pip. “I think you just repaid me.”
“Hey, you were carrying the premonition.” Pip says. “At least now we know one of my powers.”
“You should go on. I need to hurry and get home so I can get that ring.” Piper says, worriedly.
“Okay, love you guys.” Pip says, stepping out of the jeep.
“Bye Pip.” Wyatt and Chris shout to the their oldest cousin from the backseats of Piper’s jeep.
“Bye Wyatt. Bye Chris. Be good you two.” Pip says to the younger boys and shuts the passenger door. Pip turns and looks up at the school. “Here goes nothing.”
As students walk up to the building, one girl in particular roller-skates to the steps, dodging and weaving other kids as best as she could. This girl was BEVERLY CARSON, a student of Baker High and one of the seven kids who defeated Pennywise the Dancing Clown, about a year ago. She is a witch, just like her friend, Eddie Kresington. She has the power of pyrokinesis.
She almost made it to her destination when she caught a glance of one Pip Halliwell, though she didn’t know who he was per-se. She could see the power flowing off of him in waves of bright red light. He looked just about the same as the sun when it sets in the evening. If she had the ability, she would’ve absorbed the waves to find out who this stranger was. She knew he was new as she would have noticed him before.
Her view of this mysterious character was cut quick, when she crashes into her friend BILL REYNOLDS, also another kid who defeated Pennywise and is the leader of their group of friends, the Losers. “Oh Bill, I’m so sorry.”
“Its fine, Bev.” Bill says. “I’m guessing something had you pretty distracted.”
“This kid. He’s new, but he..he’s a witch.”
“How do you know?” Bill asks. Bev had told her group of friends, when they were battling It, that she was a witch and there were more witches who were out there. When Bev had come forward to her friends that she was a witch, Eddie had also came forward too. She should’ve guessed that he was magical, but due to a charm he uses..no magical being can detect that he’s a witch, unless he wants them too.
“I saw his power. It was coming off of him in waves. He’s definitely powerful, very powerful. And there’s only several witches who can have that much power. Three of them are sisters, and one is a child, which could only mean he’s blessed.” Bev says, earning a look of confusion from Bill. Believe it or not, Bev has extensive knowledge of those playing on the side of good. Her mother, before she was killed by a demon she’d sworn to get revenge on, would tell her of stories of several powerful witches who all came from one family and would be the heralding to the battle between Good and Evil.

Baker High School - Principal Brittany Reynolds’ Office
Now, she works as the school principal for Baker High and even has a son going to school there as well. “Well, Pip..you’re transcripts appear to be in order and your GPA is outstanding. The only concern I have..is the part where you apparently set a piano on fire. What was that about?”
“That was a student body act of protest. And as former student body president, it was my duty to make Hamilton High a better place. The administration kept spending hundreds of dollars on the athletics department and renovations to the teacher’s lounge. They were ignoring how bad the school was falling apart.” Pip says.
“Go on..” Principal Reynolds says.
“The basement had to be restricted due to a mold “infestation” that was very fatal. It had began to escape and reach the upper floors of the school, particularly the cafeteria. Four students, a janitor, and a lunch-lady had already been hospitalized and the rest of us weren’t having it.”
“Dear god!” Principal Reynolds exclaims.
“The administrators wanted the school to shut down so they could collect the money and build a brand new school with upgraded security tech, and have complete control of the students and their lives. Well, since I was basically the leader of the student body..I stood up and fought back, gaining support from fellow students, their families, other schools in New York City, and almost a third of the United States.” Pip says and Brittany’s mouth drops. “And our stand spread out of the state. Students across the US have come together to stand against their schools and right the wrongs that’ve been done to the American education system.”
“And it all started with you..” Brittany says, finishing for him. Pip nods, smiling a little bit in pride. “I’m impressed and I don’t see no alarm in the piano incident, so you can start today if you’d like.”
“Well I love playing the piano, so it did hurt a lot when I set it on fire.” Pip says, with a laugh. “And great, I was hoping I’d get to begin classes today.”
“I’m glad to hear it.” Brittany says. “Just out of curiosity, did your band of students earn a name? I only ask because I’d love to dig into more of this and read about it.”
Pip looks at her strangely. “Are you serious?” She nods her head. “Wow, I’d be lying if I said that you weren’t the first teacher to actually be interested. Most teachers and administrators thought we were fools and just unappreciative of what we were given. We were branded with the ‘Hamilton Revolutes’.”
“The Hamilton Revolutes..” Brittany repeats. “You should run for student president, the campaign starts in two weeks. You’re GPA is over the requirement and you were president at your old school. You’d be a great president, but you’ll have to beat Greta Brewer.”
Pip nods. “I’ll definitely think about it.”
Brittany grabs a sheet of paper from her printer and hands it to Pip. “Your schedule almost completely aligns with the schedule of student, Eddie Kresington, he should be making his way here, as we speak, to walk you to your first class. The only class you don’t share is the elective slot. You’ll have to figure out what elective you want to take and then talk to the teacher who runs it.”
“Got it.” Pip says as a knock sounds at the glass door.
“Oh, here he is. I won’t keep you any longer, don’t want to be late for your first class on your first day.” Brittany says.
“That would make a bad impression. Thanks, Principal Reynolds. Have a great day.” Pip says, grabbing his things and making his way to the door.
“You’re welcome, Pip. You also have a great first day.” Brittany says. “Good luck!” She says as Pip leaves the room.
“Thanks!” He calls back from outside the door.
Brittany watches Pip and Eddie leave the office, she smiles. She had guessed that since Pip was Phoebe Halliwell’s son, that he was probably magical. When Phoebe had called her, she asked for a favor..of going easy on Pip, in case he had to leave school early or something due to a demonic situation. Brittany accepted since she owed Phoebe and her sisters for saving her all those years ago. She shakes her head still holding her smile. “Halliwells.”
Baker High School - Hallway
“New York City.” Pip says.
“Wow, usually we don’t get many new kids from New York. Usually, kids here are wanting to go there.” Eddie says.
Running up from behind Eddie and Pip is RICHIE THOMPSON, Eddie’s best friend, and another of the seven kids who defeated Pennywise. “Eddie! Wait up.”
Eddie sighs. “Just a warning Pip, Richie has the dirtiest mouth..like of all time.”
“I heard that, Kresington.” Richie says. Pip stifles a laugh. “Who’s this?”
“This is Pip..” Eddie gets out before Richie cuts in.
“Pip?! Like Pipsqueak?” He says and laughs from his joke.
“Haha, like I haven’t heard that one before. Pip is a nickname, it shortens my first name which is Pyper.”
“Like the..” Richie tries to say but is cut off.
“If you’re gonna say the Pied Piper, I suggest it’d be a good choice if you didn’t.” Pip says.
“Ooh.” Eddie says.
Richie frowns from his joke being ruined. “Buzzkill dude.” They stop at Eddie’s locker.
“I know.” Pip says as Bill and Bev walk up to the three boys.
“Hey guys.” Bill says, greeting his friends. “You must be the new kid.” Bill says to Pip.
“What’s up, BillyBoy?” Richie asks.
“Georgie wouldn’t get up this up morning, which almost made Mom and I get to school late this morning.” Bill says.
“What’s your name, New Kid?” Bev asks the infamous Blessed One, though at the moment..only she and Bill, and probably Eddie, knew this information.
“Pyper Clayton Muniz-Halliwell.” Pip says. “But just call me Pip.” He smiles.
“Well Pip its nice to meet you.” Bev says, extending her hand. Pip takes it and shakes it. In that moment, he is hit with his second premonition of the day.
Bev and Eddie are standing side by side, both holding a jar containing a green liquid. They remove the lids from the jars and throw the liquids at something.
The premonition ends.
“Dude, are you okay? You look like you just had an orgasm.” Richie says.
“What? Yeah, I’m fine. No orgasm, just the hiccups.” Pip says and fakes a hiccup. “See?” During his birthday lunch with his Mom and Coop; Pip was told, by his Mom, that if he got the power of premonition, a good cover-up is saying that you got the hiccups and then fake a hiccup.
“Dang Pip, you’re a terrible liar.” Eddie says.
“Its okay, Pip. We know your secret.” Bev says.
Pip blanches and becomes very still like a deer caught in headlights.
“Except me, what secret?” Richie says. He takes a guess. “Are you gay? Because..well..that’s cool, I guess.” All eyes land on Richie. “What?”
“First of all, I’m bisexual.” Pip says to Richie. “And second, how do you know?” He asks Bev.
“Don’t get so defensive. I’m a witch too.” Bev says. “And I when I first saw you, I could see the power shining from inside of you.”
“As could I. I’m also a witch.” Eddie says. “You should really find a way to hide that or you’ll have demons after you, left and right.”
“I’m gonna guess you know which witch I am then?” Pip asks Bev.
“You’re the Blessed One.” Eddie says, beating Bev to the punch.
“That’s great, I wonder who else knows my secret?” Pip asks, a bit annoyed. Bill and Ritchie raise a hand and Pip rolls his eyes.
San Francisco Sewer System - Undisclosed Section a.k.a Grimlock Lair
“By the end of the day, we’ll have the Blessed One in our palms. Once we have him, we’ll steal his eyesight and then kill him with his own aura.” Grimlock JANOR says.
“A perfect way to exact revenge on the Charmed Ones: stealing one of their prodigy and killing him. Severing a parental bond before it can even form. Diabolical.” Grimlock KAVA says.
“We have to go about this with care. The last time we came back, we were stupid. We rushed the Charmed Ones with guns a blazing. We can’t do that this time.” Janor says.
“Thanks to the Blessed One arriving early and vanquishing Juno, he ripped a thread in time and opened a portal between this plane and the Wasteland.” Kava says.
“Humans are fools, even more so are witches. You can break them by using their feelings against them. The Blessed One is new to the craft, he has a lot to learn. He has no idea who we are or what his weaknesses are.” Janor says.
Kava grasps what Janor is thinking. “He thinks that since he vanquished Juno, that he is so powerful he can take down any demon who crosses his path. Even if he did vanquish us, which isn’t going to happen, his day of reckoning will come sooner with those thoughts.” Kava says.
“Exactly. With a doorway to the Wasteland open, vanquished demons will be able to return for their revenge, no matter how many times they’re re-vanquished. The Charmed Ones have created a long list of enemies, their day will come as well. The Halliwell’s won’t be able to hold their own, much less any innocents in need of help.” Janor says.
“Speaking of innocent, do you hear that?” Kava asks.
Janor grins demonically and shimmers out.
Robert Kennedy Elementary School - Playground
He runs off into the tall grass at the tree-line, looking high and low for the bright red ball. After a minute of walking, Georgie spots the ball and runs to grab it.
Baker High School - Cafeteria | San Francisco Sewer System - Grimlock Lair
In the Grimlock Lair, Kava closes his eyes, concentrating on the Blessed One, he sends Pip a vision of what was about to occur. It was the only way to get the Blessed One to come to them without alerting the Charmed Ones, they needed their conquerers to come when the time was right.
Back at Baker, in the cafeteria, Pip is about to take a bite of his sandwich when he receives the vision from Kava. He drops his sandwich and grabs his head.
“Holy hell!” Richie says.
Pip gasps as he is sucked into the vision, though somehow Bev and Eddie receive the vision as well.
Janor is approaching a little boy who’s about to pick up a red ball. It was Georgie Reynolds. Janor puts a hand on Georgie’s mouth to keep him quiet and finally wraps him free around Georgie to pick him up. The vision changes. Janor and Kava each raise a hand and steal Georgie’s eyesight.
The vision ends.
“That was Bill’s little brother, Georgie.” Eddie says.
“Georgie?! What’s happened to him? Tell me!” Bill demands.
“I’ve got to go. I have to stop them.” Pip says and stands up.
“We’re coming with you.” Bev says, referring to herself and Eddie.
“No you’re not. I’m the Blessed One, not either of you.” Pip says, meanly.
“Pip, its doesn’t have to be that way. What if something happens and they steal your eyesight?” Eddie says. “How will you vanquish them?”
Pip considers Eddie’s words. “Fine. But only the two of you, the rest of them can’t come.”
“What?!” Bill lashes out.
“You’re not magical, you have no powers. You won’t be able to protect yourself.”
“Georgie is my brother.” Bill says.
“I so don’t have the time for this.” Pip says, turning on a heel and racing out of the cafeteria.
“Come on.” Bev says to Eddie.
Pip runs through the halls of Baker, Bev and Eddie in tow. “Andy!” Pip hollers.
Blue and white lights come down from the ceiling to form the shape of man. When they disappear, Andy Trudeau stands there with a small look of worry. “Pip? What’s wrong?”
“No time. Take us to Kennedy Elementary.” Pip says.
“What’s going on?” Andy asks. “And who’re they?” If Andy were to be honest, he knew they were. Beverly Carson and Eddie Kresington are to become two of his other charges, well they already are, but they don’t know that..yet.
“I’ll explain later, just orb us.” Pip says.
“You’ll have to hold my hand.” Andy says. Pip grabs Andy’s hand, sheepishly. Andy notices this and doesn’t say anything of it. Eddie grips Pip’s free hand and Bev grabs Andy’s free hand. “Just a heads up, you’re gonna feel very weird after.”
“Don’t have time, there’s an innocent to save.” Pip says.
Andy orbs them out just as Bill comes running down the hall.
Robert Kennedy Elementary School - Playground
“I just realized..Pip had no contact with anything related to the vision. Bill was sitting across from him, so he couldn’t have brushed up against him by accident.” Eddie says.
“Which means this is a trap.” Bev says. “Come on.” She says to Eddie and the two take off running after Pip.
“Why do they never just stop and listen?” Andy asks aloud. If Pip would have waited, Andy could’ve told Pip who he’s going up against. Andy had been alive when the Charmed Ones faced the Grimlocks for the first time. He had to carry Piper out of the storm drain because she had gotten hurt and was almost strangled to death with her own aura. Which could also happen to Bev, Eddie and Pip.
Pip breaks past the tree-line and sprints through the underbrush. “Georgie!” He calls out. Faint, muffled whimpers can be heard and its just enough to get Pip moving. He follows the sounds and finds Grimlock Janor holding Georgie with a hand clamped tightly over the boy’s mouth. “Let him go.”
“The Blessed One. I was hoping you’d come.” Janor says. “Though you won’t be able to see much for long.”
Kava shimmers in beside Janor. “Its about time.” He says and raises a hand at Pip. In an instant, Pip’s eyes change from their original amber to a milky white.
“What did you just do? Why can’t I see?” Pip asks in fright and confusion.
Janor looks at Kava, and the latter nods. Kava walks up behind Pip and hits him in the back of the neck, knocking him unconscious. Bev and Eddie arrive on the scene and see Janor holding Georgie, who’s squirming like a scared puppy, and Kava picking up Pip.
“No!” Bev screams and goes to power up a fireball, but Kava lifts a hand and begins strangling Bev and Eddie with their auras.
Back at the parking lot, Andy gets a ringing in his head. “Oh no.” He orbs out.
Bev and Eddie are on the verge of passing out when Andy orbs in behind them. He grabs them and orbs out, to only re-orb back only a few feet away. “Where’s Pip?” He asks the two witches.
Bev and Eddie point to where the Grimlock had been holding Pip, but the two Grimlocks, Georgie, and Pip were no where to be seen.
San Francisco Sewer System - Grimlock Lair
“Georgie? Where are you?” Pip asks quietly. Since he couldn’t see, Pip decided that he’d have to rely on his other senses so he could save Georgie.
“Right beside you.” Georgie says in a frightful tone. He grabs Pip’s hand. “I can still see.” He whispers.
“They didn’t take your vision?” Pip asks. Georgie takes Pip’s hand and moves it to his head, he shakes it and makes a noise indicating ‘no’. “Then you’ll have to help me get us out of here.”
“Shut up.” Janor shouts at the two boys. He turns back around to continue talking with Kava. “As I was saying, we take the Blessed One to the Underworld and offer him to whoever has the most power. They can then use him to bring back the Source from the Wasteland. I’m sure he’d reward us greatly for doing so.”
Kava nods his head. “What about the other kid?”
“We kill him.” Janor blatantly.
Georgie squeezes Pip’s hand tightly and he whimpers in fear.
Halliwell Manor - Kitchen
She looks up when she sees blue and white lights begin to form. “Andy? What’s going on?” She asks when Andy, Bev, and Eddie appear. “And who’re they? Pip’s innocents?”
“No. They’re his friends, also witches.” Andy says. He points to Eddie. “That’s Eddie.” He points to Bev. “That’s Beverly, or just Bev.”
Piper nods and lays her kitchen knife down. “Where’s Pip?”
“Gone.” Andy says.
“Gone?” Piper asks.
Andy sighs. “Grimlocks.”
Piper nods. “I see.” She turns around and opens a cabinet. She grabs a small container labeled “Shisandra Root”, and several others though the labels can’t be seen clearly. “Looks like Leo will have to wait for lunch.” She sighs and moves her cutting board with halfway chopped lettuce laying on it, to the side.
Eddie looks to Bev. “You see her power too, right?”
“Yeah, its gold. Pip’s was red. She’s a Charmed One.” Bev says.
Eddie looks at Piper and his jaw drops. “I never thought I’d meet a Charmed One.”
Piper looks at Eddie. “Well, Pip’s mother is a Charmed One and his aunt Paige is too. And his deceased aunt Prue was also Charmed One.”
“Ask Phoebe is a Charmed One?” Bev asks. Piper nods. “She is amazing at what she does. I’ve read her columns since I’ve been able to read. She’s helped me get through some difficult times.”
“Maybe you’ll get the chance to thank her. Actually you most definitely will, if you work beside Pip in magical situations then you will at some point get to meet her.” Piper says. Bev’s mouth widens in a grin and she nods quickly. Piper smirks. “I didn’t know my sister had a teen following. Though I should have guessed that the teens of San Francisco were impacted more by her column.”
“Are you kidding? Ask Phoebe is a hit at Baker, almost every kid knows who Phoebe Halliwell is, minus the magic part. There’s a fan club solely dedicated to her column and another club dedicated to just her.” Bev says.
Andy watches as his charges interact with the eldest Charmed One.
“Wow.” Piper says, stirring the new pot filled with the Grimlock potion. She throws in the Shisandra root and the brew produces a puff of smoke. “Potion’s done.” She turns around once more and removes two empty jars from another cabinet. She unscrews the lids and uses a ladle to scoop some potion into both jars. “Did they take Pip’s eyesight?”
“I don’t know, Bev and Eddie were getting strangled with their auras and I had to orb them away before it killed them.” Andy says.
“How are they even back? Its not Halloween and the Grimlocks are one of the most hated demons due to how obnoxious they are, no demon would want to resurrect them.” Piper says. She looks up. “Did the Elders know the Grimlocks were back?”
“If they did, then they didn’t tell me.” Andy says.
Piper sighs. “To be completely honest, I bet they knew and know even more. We’ve had a difficult past, but the least they could do is give a heads up. They owe us that.” She gives one of the jars to Bev and the other to Eddie. “Lets go.”
“Piper, I hate saying this..but you don’t need to come with us.” Andy says.
“And why’s that?” Piper asks.
“The Charmed Ones aren’t required anymore. You have finally began to lead normal lives after so many years of fighting evil. The Elders are giving you, Phoebe, and Paige a reward. After the Ultimate Battle, you three proved that your services for Good and Evil can be laid to rest. Its Pip’s turn now, as well as Bev’s and Eddie’s, and the circle of friends they’ve built. You and your sisters are free to do whatever you want now without demonic trouble.” Andy explains.
“What?” Piper asks. “Why would they do that? It’s definitely not something they’d do, especially for us.”
“The Elders can make it so you, Phoebe, Paige aren’t attacked by demons anymore, they can cloak you and those you three want cloaked. Their only term is that you accept that Pip will have to carry on the legacy.” Andy says.
“Excuse me?! He’s not even eighteen yet!” Piper says. “Why on earth would they think we’d let him carry that burden.”
“Because if you don’t..this world will fall. The next generation of Halliwells, of magic, won’t have a future to live in.” Andy says.
Piper stills and looks at Andy, his eyes solemn. “Did they say how bad?”
Andy tilts his head. “They wouldn’t say, they were adamant about you and your sisters understanding what’s at stake if Pip were removed from the playing field. They’ve sensed that something big is going to happen in the near future and they need him on the forefront.”
Bev and Eddie looked at each other. Were they not as important as Pip? Did the Elders not want them helping Pip? “You can both argue about this later. Pip needs us.” Bev says, changing the topic of concern to being about Pip.
“Bev and I will rescue Pip, Mrs. Halliwell. And I’m afraid that you’re gonna have to stay behind.” He closes his eyes and a chair comes up behind Piper and it makes her sit. The chair then pulls Piper away from them.
“Hey.” Piper yelps in surprise.
Eddie opens his eyes. “Sorry.” He grabs one of Andy’s hands as does Bev and the three orb away from Halliwell Manor.
San Francisco Sewer System - Storm Drain Entrance
“You both have to go in, this is far as I’m allowed to go.” Andy says to his charges.
“Okay.” Eddie says and looks at the door that led down into the sewer system. “No worries, its just dirty sewage filled with..with..”
“Eddie. We’ve been through this, you can’t get a staff infection from walking through sewer water that’s ankle-deep. Besides we’re not going that deep in the sewers like last time.” Bev says.
“Two questions: One, why does Eddie worried about getting a staff infection? Two, last time? Both of you were down there before?” Andy asks.
“Eddie has like a high level of OCD. He freaks out when he gets messy and is worried he’ll contract some disease or sickness.” Bev says.
“Which was only because my Mom was giving me placebos.” Eddie says.
“Mhm, keep telling yourself that.” Bev counters. “Its really his greatest fear.”
“Stop it, the fear demon could be lurking in the shadows.” Eddie says.
“Oh sweetie, Barbas is gone. Thanks to the Charmed Ones.” Bev says with pride. “As for your second question, Andy. Our friends and, Eddie and I, had to battle an evil clown in the sewers last year.
‘We almost lost Georgie, who’s the younger brother of our friend Bill, and now that’s a risk we cannot take.” Eddie explains.
Andy nods. “Be careful, both of you.”
“We will.” Bev says.
They turn and Eddie opens the door that leads into the sewers. Andy watches them descend into the dark underneath of San Francisco.
San Francisco Sewer System - Grimlock Lair
“Bev!” Eddie calls after her, but alerts the Grimlocks.
“Eddie?” Pip calls out.
“Aren’t you supposed to be vanquished?” Bev asks Grimlock Kava. She splashes Kava with the vanquishing potion.
“Agh.” Kava sounds and then screams as he melts away. Vanquished.
Grimlock Janor begins choking Eddie, causing the latter to drop his potion. Janor raises his other arm and also chokes Bev.
Eddie’s potion jar rolls to Pip and he fills it bump him. Pip feels around him and grabs the jar. “Georgie, open this.”
“Okay.” Georgie says and takes the jar from Pip. He unscrews the lid off and looks to Pip. “What now?”
“Take my hand.” Pip says. Georgie takes Pip’s right hand in his free left hand and helps Pip stand up. “I want you to splash the demon with the liquid in the jar.”
“O-okay.” Georgie says, nervously. Georgie, walks closer to the Grimlock while holding onto Pip’s hand.
“Ought to know better than attacking the Halliwell’s for the third time.” Pip says to Janor.
Janor turns his head and releases his choke on Bev and Eddie. “Vanquish me, I don’t care. We’ll be back, we’ll all be back and I don’t mean just Kava and I. Thanks to the Blessed One coming home.”
“Now, Georgie.” Pip says. Georgie obliges and splashes Janor with the potion and he melts away just like Kava.
Immediately, Pip’s eyes change from milky white to their original bright amber. Pip blinks several times and grins. “I can see again.”
“Pip, from now on. Don’t rush off in the face of evil..by yourself.” Bev says, patting Pip on the back. “You had us worried.”
“We’re a team now. You won’t have to do anything alone.” Eddie says, offering Pip a high-five.
“Got it.” He takes Eddie’s high five and that’s when the air around the three witches picks up, almost instantly it was like Pip, Eddie and Bev were caught in the middle of a tornado. “Georgie, get back.”
“What’s going on?” Eddie asks.
“I have no idea.” Pip says.
A red light shines from the ceiling and engulfs Bev, Eddie and Pip. The light enters the three of them and they float off the ground. Their bodies emit the light and then merges into a bubble around all three of them together. At last, the light fades away and the return to the ground.
“Whoa.” Georgie says, in awe. “That was so cool.”
“Are we a trio now?” Eddie asks.
“I think so. According to Aunt Piper, when the Charmed Ones reconstituted; she, Mom, and Aunt Paige had made contact with each other.” Pip says. “Maybe since we were touching, we became one..”
“Instead of being Blessed by yourself, its now three Blessed in one.” Bev finishes for Pip.
“You’d be correct Bev.” Andy says, entering into the room. “That’s why Piper wasn’t supposed to be here. Both of you were meant to unite with Pip and become Blessed as well. Not fully like Pip, himself, but partly. You and Eddie now house some part of the Blessed power that Pip originally had.”
“This is going to be one hell of an ride.” Eddie says.
“You can say that again.” Bev says.
Pip smirks. “We better get Georgie out of here. I’m sure by now, Bill has to have told their Mom that Georgie’s in trouble.” He says.
“You’re right.” Andy says.
“Can you orb us all?” Pip asks.
“Yes, I can actually.” Andy says. Pip, Bev, Eddie, and Georgie all gather with Andy and he orbs them out of the sewers.
P3 - Late Evening; Early Night
Georgie had been safely returned to his family and, Phoebe and Paige had been informed of the day’s events. Phoebe scolded Pip for running into a fight without any preparation, but was happy that he was okay and proud that he saved an innocent.
Piper invited Pip to the club but told him he had to stay in the consecrated section for those under sixteen unless he was going to sit with his Mom and aunts at their table. But he politely declined so he could sit with his friends.
The club was packed to the brim for the night since JORDIN SPARKS was performing. She was currently singing “One Step At A Time”.
“Pip!” Bill greets happily, when he sees the witch enter the teen section.
“Bill, hi!” Pip greets back.
“I want to thank you again for saving my brother today. I don’t know what I would’ve done if I’d lost him.” Bill says.
“It was nothing, really. Its my duty, as it is Bev’s and Eddie’s to protect the innocent now.” Pip says. “Besides I’m sure anyone’d have done it.”
“Racing into a fight with demons with only concern for Georgie and none for yourself.” Eddie says. “Yeah, I’m sure anyone else would’ve done what you did.”
Bill and Pip give a laugh.
Phoebe Halliwell enters the ‘sixteen and under’ area. “Pip.”
“Oh hi Mom.” Pip surprised by his mother’s arrival to this part of the club.
“Who’re these handsome fellas? Friends?” Phoebe asks, with a smile on her face. Her words touching the ears of Bill and Eddie with kindness and heart.
“Yes, actually. Mom this Eddie and Bill. Eddie, Bill, this is my mom.” Pip says introducing his mom to his friends.
“Oh my god, you’re—“ Eddie says, but is cut off when Bev walks up to them.
“Phoebe Halliwell?!” Bev says, like a fangirl. “I’ve been dreaming of this moment for a long time.”
“Mom, this is Bev. She and Eddie are the ones who share my Blessed power now.”
Richie, Ben, Mike, and Stan join their friends.
“And this Richie, Ben, Mike, and Stan. The rest of our group.” Pip says.
“Nice to meet you all.” Phoebe says.
“Thank you so much for writing your column, Mrs. Halliwell. You don’t know how much you’ve helped me through.” Bev says.
“Your Mom is Ask Phoebe?” Stan asks Pip. Pip nods. “Dude, that is so cool.”
“Pip, your Mom is smokin’.” Richie says.
Pip rolls his eyes. “And too old for you.”
“And married.” Phoebe says.
The rest of the Losers try and stifle their laughs.
“That’s my job, Bev. Though I was surprised when Piper told me that Baker High had two clubs dedicated to me.” Phoebe says.
“Everyone at Baker knows who you are. You’re a hit with the teen population of the city.” Ben says.
“You can tell all of the kids at Baker that they’re very welcome for the help I’ve been giving them.” Phoebe says.
Bev nods. “Your wish is my command.” Phoebe’s eyes widen and Bev laughs. “Don’t worry, I’m not a genie.”
Phoebe exhales and smiles. “I take it you all know the family secret then.”
“We all battled an evil clown last year and we know Pip’s secret since he had vision at lunch earlier today.” Mike says.
“As long you all keep the secret then I’m fine. Piper and I lost our oldest sister because we got exposed, that’s how we have Paige now. I don’t want Pip to go through something like that.” Phoebe says.
“Don’t worry Mrs. Halliwell, we’ll keep the family secret-a secret.” Bill says.
Phoebe nods. “I should get back to Coop, I’ve finally been able to get him away from work on my terms.” She gives Pip a hug and kiss on the forehead. “I love you, Pip.”
“I love you too, Mom.” Pip says back to Phoebe.
“It was nice meeting you all.” Phoebe says to Bill, Bev and Eddie. “Have fun, but not too much fun.” She waves at Pip and his friends, and leaves the teen section.
Pip and the Losers all gather at a table and a WAITRESS stops at the table with a tray holding several cans of sodas. They begin conversing and laughing with each other.
*The camera pans out of the teen section and an aerial view of the club can be seen as Jordin Sparks performs on stage.*
END OF EPISODE!
Hope you guys enjoyed the episode!
Notes:
- Matt, the creator of Blessed, does not own any of the It characters featured in the episode or any future episodes. Last names of the original It characters were changed because of that but ownership still goes to Stephen King who created the original characters.
- Grimlocks do not have the power to Share Visions, but in Blessed-Matt has decided that certain types of demons can use this power.
- Matt has also been banking on doing an It crossover with his Charmed Spinoff - Blessed for a good few months now!
- Matt has Tim to thank for the idea of the Hamilton Revolutes. Matt was so fascinated with the Rex and Hannah storyline of them freeing their warlock brethren, it gave him the inspiration to do a kind-of similar idea but in a way that doing something in the mortal-human worldly sense. The American education system's bad baggage has been a nagging quarrel for Matt as he's a high school student himself and the idea he got also comes from a personal POV. So a reigning savior for students in America who struggle with problems in their school life was one of the greatest inspirations Matt has come up with in his works.
- So I owe Tim a vast deal of thanks as if I'd never had read the Rex and Hannah stories, I probably wouldn't of have the courage to actually write my inspired idea into Blessed, as some people prefer not reading those topics in stories. So thank you again and if you ever need anything and I mean anything, you can come to me and I will offer as much help as I can!
