How should a demon successfully end the Charmed Ones?

[zachary]

Wasn't TOO sure where to place this, it's not a game, but it's not necessarily about a specific "character".

I was inspired by someone who said they loved the intelligent demons, made me think about how many (or few) demons/evil had good plans and terrible plans, and it made me wonder the best strategy to end the Charmed Ones.

How should a demon successfully end the Charmed Ones? Who do you think had the best strategy?

Honestly, easy answer from me would be shimmer/blink/flame into their house in the middle of the night and just launch fireballs and knives. I think Baccarra and Zankou had some of the BEST strategies. What do you think?

Also.. Gotta give a shout-out to my man, Shax, brotherman flew into the house and launched everyone through walls and left no crumbs.

Depends. If the sisters are sleeping and the demon killed them quietly that would be good unless Phoebe got a dream premonition and woke up up at that moment and did something I don't know although her visions weren't always on the spot or she felt a bad vibe through her empathy and woke up otherwise of course.

Paige could also sense evil like she did with the creepy house if that part of her half white lighter power developed too and she woke up orbing out herself.

I know in Supernatural Sam and Dean had slept with weapons in their motel beds so if Phoebe did have any foresight the girls could or have potions instead as well.

Another could be to shatter the girls molecules throughout time and space so they couldn't Reform or be stuck in a different time with no powers in a place where that didn't overall so no-one could help them do that either.

Evil Charmed Ones from mirror world.

Cole had best strategies especially making sisters fight against each other and use their powers so they lose them.

Mortals Pratt and Alice were successful in killing one of the Charmed Ones. With Pratt reality, even if Phoebe was saved from burning by her sisters, they would've put their families in danger and would've been fugitives for the rest of their lives. The time reversal caused Prue to be killed permanently. And even if time wasn't reversed, Prue would've been the one Pratt would be trying to burn at stake.

Rex & Hanna are still the best and had them right where they wanted them. Then, Leo had to happen -_-

They'd solve this in 7 seconds. Come in the middle of the night by their bedside and throw a fireball at them. Bye! End of show.

To make things more realistic they could show they protect the manor but they don't.

However taking logic out. Rex and Hannah basically nearly won if Leo didn't step in.

I theorize they put crystals around entry points. We see them do this in S6E12 "Prince Charmed" where Paige puts crystals on the window sills & even the front door, after being tricked by fake Darryl xD

Love this. Now that's great head canon. It just never makes sense why they wouldn't protect the manor. Especially with two small children in S6-8 in the manor.

Henry makes your same point to Paige in S8E15 "The Last Temptation of Christy" & Paige retorts with "they have powers to defend themselves"...IDK if we find that satisfying, but that is something the writers DID answer LOL

If the sisters had pirite crystals laid out around the house which would've been the sensible thing to do especially with young kids or a protection spell were cast forming a grid then as Summereading said no evil would've gotten in the same as if Piper and Phoebe had those in their places of business making the show redundant essentially unless powerful beings had have overcame them which would had to have to happened for Charmed to have continued obviously.

That's the thing with this show. The lore changes everytime a new episode begins LOL

So, really, we only have the single episode lore to work off of. Though, a couple of times the show acknowledges how they deal with when they're asleep.

S1E16 "Which Prue is it, Anyway?" - Helena tells Gabriel to strike Prue, when she's asleep. But, Gabriel was worried about the PO3 protecting Prue there, since the PO3 is "the strongest" while at the Manor.

I think this other episode is somewhere in S7, but I recall Piper complaining about being worried about "sleeping with one eye open", worried about which demon would get her next. The show does acknowledge this but doesn't really explain on why it doesn't too well LOL
