Sight Unseen
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the charmed characters they all belong to Aaron Spelling productions except for Melissa.
Authors Notes: This is my series of Charmed going from season two to seven all stories will be the same as that on the show except seasons two and three, which will class as one year because of Dan and Cole the rest will continue as normal.
Note: My stories will be a little different but still have the same outcome so the episodes fit together. All the characters of Charmed including Andy Trudeau who didn't die Darryl Morris Triad Source will be recurring characters as well as Cole who works for the Triad. I'll be using spells from the show and some I create myself in these stories they'll be different but have the same affect and better sounding.
Extra Note: This episode's the same as Sight Unseen except for a few added or changed scenes like Melissa being the white lighter instead of Leo and a big surprise happens.
Episode Five
Clubroom Saturday Seventh December Nineteen Ninety Nine
Andy Phoebe and Melissa are at the bar Phoebe looks at her watch.
Phoebe: Hey Mitch you'd better get Andy another drink.
He looks at Andy sitting next to her.
Mitch:Okay but that's over the club limit.
Andy: No please I'm fine really Prue's just probably held up at work or something.
Piper approach's the bar.
Piper:Wait? She still hasn't called?
Melissa:Nope.
Piper:You think she's stood you up?
Andy:Not deliberately but ever since you guys came back from pilgrim times she's been on a demon bender.
Phoebe: Plus it's the only thing she talks about these days.
Melissa: And here I thought that was my job.
Coming back Mitch gives Andy his drink.
Piper:Hey Mitch better make that a double he'll need it when I'm finished with Prue.
She picks up the phone.
Phoebe:Speaking of men how you and Dan doing is he keeping you warm?
Piper:No he's not actually.
Phoebe:Oh honey you still freezing him like you did Leo when you and he?
Phoebe giggles.
Piper:No I'm not freezing him Phoebe I'm just undecided that's all.
Andy: Undecided about what?
Piper: About whether to tell Dan I'm a witch or not.
Phoebe: Aren't he and Jenny visiting her parents?
Piper: They are so I've only a week to decide what to do I mean we've been dating a month now and our relationships really heavy and the amount of times I've told him I've had to leave because of family emergencies it's no wonder he hasn't gotten suspicious yet.
Melissa: You sure you should tell him Piper? Do you think he could handle it?
Piper: I don't know I thought of using the truth spell in the Book of Shadows but after what happened when Prue used it I decided against it.
Phoebe: Thank god I don't want to be spilling all my gut secrets out again especially to Cole.
Piper dials Prue's cell on the phone.
Phoebe: If me and him continue this flirting tango thing I'm gonna have to start concentrating on myself.
Hearing her cell ring in her BMW X5 Prue answers it.
Prue:(In the phone) Hello?
Piper:Hey Prue where are you?
Prue:I'm on my way home from work Piper oh you'll never guess what I found on the internet remember Micah?
Piper:The seventh century hottie? How can we forget?
Melissa: Okay enough about the past tell her about the present.
Prue:Well I traced his ancestors and found an entire history of the village we visited I figured it might give us a clue to the identity of the demon that the source and the triad sent to kill us.
Piper:Um Prue aren't you forgetting something?
Prue:Not really my report on the Winslow collections not due till Monday.
Piper:No I mean something else like Andy and the fact you were supposed to be going out on a date with him.
Prue:Andy oh alright uh just give him a drink and explain to him what's happened.
Piper:If we give him anymore drinks we'll have to send him to an A.A. meeting.
Prue:How longs he been there?
Piper:About an hour and three hundred and twenty seven peanuts.
Prue:Alright what should I do?
Piper:Well remorse's good and attendances better.
Prue:Piper I'm half way across town besides I've gotta get home and look up all this demon stuff.
Piper:Can't that wait?
Prue:And you think the source and the triad will? Look we've gotta them before they get us so we can save Mel's future.
Piper Alright then.
She hangs up.
Phoebe:Is she okay?
Piper:Do you mean does Prue know the gravity of her actions and is coming back to normality nope.
Phoebe: I tell you that woman's obsessed even more so than Mel.
Melissa laughs.
Andy: God I hope she's not like that when we married.
Melissa: Who knows maybe that won't bother you about her?
Phoebe: Wait a sec Prue and Andy are married in the future?
Melissa: I can't tell you, you know that you'll have to find out yourself.
Piper: Are me and Dan still together? What about children you did say we have descendants in the future.
Melissa: Yes but I also said I can't tell you anything without bringing huge future conciseness's to light.
Phoebe: See that's the thing I don't like about time travel I mean what if something bad happened to us years gone say one of us dies of cancer because we smoked by knowing that now we can prevent it happening by not smoking then.
Melissa: Yeah but you know as well as I Phoebe the future's not set in stone things change.
Piper: Like Prue and her madness if she doesn't do something soon.
Front Porch
Prue walks up noticing the front door open she goes inside and sees all the mirrors broken she steps on some broken glass then continues into the living room someone attacks her from behind and they roll onto the couch Prue uses her power and the attacker crashes through the window.

San Francisco Bay & City Night
Fading in various scenes of San Francisco bay and City are lit up whilst the song "Changing Face" by Comeback Kid's playing.
What have you become? Now you fight a losing war.
I look at this and it's all a mess seems like anything that's real, I just can't see.
I can't see the truth in you I can't see the real in you.
Show your face and take the world but instead, you have to fit the mould.
With this front you're losing respect I know you're better than that.
Your time is running out your front is wearing thin.
So how long can you live like this? I know this isn't who you really are.
Do you want to break free, from all the lies you put in front?
Now take them back do you want to break free?
I don't need a crew, to validate myself you're all the same.
Your identity's fading fast.
Living Room
Sitting on the couch Melissa's checking on Prue's arm whilst Piper's sweeping up the glass.
Melissa: It doesn't seem to be broken it's bruising mainly
Phoebe comes in carrying an ice pack.
Phoebe:Here you go Mel.
She hands her the ice pack which she places on Prue's shoulder.
Melissa: Thanks Phoebe.
Phoebe: You feeling better Prue?
Prue:I think so I was more stunned then hurt you know it just happened so fast.
Piper:It's eerie knowing somebody went through every room in the house smashing mirrors touching who knows what.
Phoebe:Fondling who knows what.
Piper:It's just so creepy well at least nothing's missing.
Prue:How do you know it wasn't a demon?
Melissa: Because demons don't usually fondle Prue.
Piper:Besides the only one we knew who used mirrors was Kali and we vanquished her sorry ass.
Prue:Yeah by smashing her reflection in the mirror.
Darryl and Andy come down the stairs.
Prue: I know she's supposed to be dead an all but so were the Grimlock's.
Melissa: That's different that was Halloween the day where all magic could be tapped into of course they could come back.
Darryl:Please don't remind me about them.
Piper:Did you two find anything?
Andy:Not much just a bunch of fingerprints that don't match any of your samples we'll run them through the computer see if any name's pop up.
Prue:They won't guy's hello Book of Shadows one o one mirrors the portals from which evil enters through.
Phoebe:Yeah but there finger prints and demons don't have fingers.
Darryl:Well on the human side of things we need you and your sisters to put together a grudge list of any enemies you have past or present.
Prue hands Darryl a piece of paper.
Prue:Already done.
Darryl:(Reading from the list) Javna Barbas Yama what did you do? Date the United Nations?
Prue:It's the demons warlocks and various forces of evil we've faced since becoming witches.
Andy:That's not exactly what we meant Prue.
Prue:Okay I'm gonna gets the Book of Shadows and see if I can find anything about mirrors.
Prue goes upstairs.
Darryl: Is she okay?
Phoebe:Prue's been a little fixated lately.
Melissa:More like obsessed do you think it was a bad human guy?
Andy:In any other house definitely around here you never know.
Prue:(From upstairs) Piper? Phoebe? Darryl? Andy? Mel?
The gang go upstairs to the Attic.
Attic
Piper Phoebe Darryl Andy and Melissa walk in.
Piper:What is it?
Prue:The door was unlocked.
Darryl:So?
Prue:So we normally lock it when we're not in the house or if someone's here who doesn't really know us then especially since the Source and the Triad sent a demon to wipe out our family line or if they try to take the Book Of Shadows.
Melissa: Prue you know demons don't unlock doors to get in right unless they're very low level who can't teleport and even if they had to unlock it unless they knew away around the protection spell the books save.
Darryl:Wait a sec you lock this door but not your front or back ones?
Phoebe: No of course we lock them Darryl.
Andy: But you don't have double locking though or a security alarm even.
Phoebe: Only because no-ones ever broken in like this before not even when our mom or Grams was alive.
Piper: Well they did have powers Phoebe.
Darryl:Maybe but still I'm surprised three young women living in a big city don't have adequate protection especially with a house like this.
Prue:Darryl we're three witches I think in this instance we can handle it.
Andy: (About the door) doesn't look like the door was jimmied.
Phoebe:So what do you thinking we're dealing Prue with a lock picking demon?
Piper:It doesn't look like anything's missing up here either.
Melissa:Exactly which why I think it's ludicrous not to rule out a human couldn't have done this.
Prue:Well I think it's ludicrous not to think the Source and the Triad have nothing to do with this.
Piper:Okay Darryl Andy why don't you both go check on those fingerprints us girls need to have a little conference here.
Darryl:Alright goodnight.
Phoebe:Night.
Darryl and Andy leave the room.
Prue:Okay Mel I need you to go up there and ask the Elders about everything they know about the triad.
Piper:Uh Prue? Maybe a little perspective here before you go and ask her to do that.
Melissa: Precisely like I don't think a demon did this so why should I go up there?
Prue: Because it's your job that's why look the source and the triad sent somebody back in time and nearly wiped out our entire line and I'm willing to bet they did this to.
She picks up the Book of Shadows.
Prue: Now if you guys don't wanna take that seriously that's your business me I'm on a mission.
Prue leaves.
Piper:Okay.
Phoebe:Alright we need to do something about Prue's paranoia soon or it'll destroy her Mel you'd better go up there even if it's just to put her mind at rest.
Melissa: Sure.
She orbs up to Elder Land.
Triad's Lair
The three triad members are standing in a circle with the source they summon Cole.
Cole: Why was I summoned here?
Source: You were summoned Belthazor because I've news I finally know who the charmed one's descendant is.
Cole: (Uneasy) Really? Who?
Triad One: Melissa Hale the daughter of Leo Wyatt and Piper Haliwell half white lighter half witch.
Cole: Hale? Isn't she called Halliwell or Wyatt?
Source: No Melissa was adopted after her real parents were killed in the future she's five foot six Mahogany red haired green eyed has tattoos on her back arm leg neck and waist though there probably hidden.
Cole: You're certain it's her?
Triad Two: Very certain the informant who first came back and told us of the future source's plan arrived here ten minutes ago how can you be sure we're not certain?
Cole:The fact he arrived here ten minutes ago proves it why did it take him so long to come back if he knew who the descendant was in the first place?
Triad Three:Because he's the future source's general and the timeline he comes from is a war zone literally witches and supernatural evil destroying each other which is why he couldn't leave his post till now.
Cole:So what do you want me to do kill her?
Source: No Melissa Hale's from twenty six years in the future with a vast amount of Wiccan knowledge she might know you and how to destroy you so we're assigning another.
Cole: You're replacing me? We had a bargain I get the charmed ones and their descendant you give me back my father's soul.
Triad One:This bargains in your best interests not ours.
Triad Two: Don't look at it as replacement Belthazor look at it as assistance besides Troxa can turn invisible even she can't see that which will make it easier for him to kill her then them.
Cole: You're sending Troxa?
Triad Three:We are however if either of you should be caught the same maxims apply we can't risk either of you leading the charmed ones or their descendant to us.
Source: Go Belthazor and make me proud.
Cole:Yes my liege.
He shimmers out.
Porch
Troxa's there he turns invisible opens the door and walks inside.
Piper's room
Phoebe Piper and Andy come in.
Phoebe:I can't believe your suggesting this Andy me and Piper haven't slept together since we were kids.
Andy: Phoebe the perp could come back anytime it's better if you two stay together besides I'll be with Prue so you'll have a man presence around the house encase anything happens.
Piper: Yeah thanks for doing this Andy we really grateful.
Andy:No worries Piper you three are family it's the least I can do.

Cole:Did you get a look at who it was?
Prue:No.
Cole:I'm gonna make a call get a patrol car to watch the place.
Andy: That's okay Cole I got it covered their on their way.
Prue:Yeah we can handle it.
Cole:No you can't you don't know what kind of evil you're dealing with here.
Piper:Yeah we were just discussing what that weren't we Prue?
The door opens and Cole sees it close Melissa notices the way he looks.
Melissa: (Thinking to herself) He knows something well we'll definitely have a talk about what that is tomorrow morning.
Phoebe:Do you want anything Cole like coffee or something?
Prue: Actually Phoebe that's not really a good idea right now we've sort of something very important to discuss.
Cole:That's alright I should go anyway It's getting late call me anytime.
Phoebe:I will thanks.
He leaves.
Phoebe: Okay Prue this better be good.
Prue: Well when I was up in the attic and woke up there was a pillow hovering above my face about to smother me.
Piper:A pillow?
Andy:Hovering?
Prue nods.
Phoebe: Well that must be the infamous pillow smothering demon.
Piper:Maybe it was a nightmare.
Prue:It wasn't a nightmare and it certainly wasn't a joke there's a demon after me or us I know it.
Prue goes upstairs.
Melissa:(Thinking to herself)Yeah I'm starting to agree with you Aunt Prue.
Porch
Cole's there.
Cole:Come out, come out wherever you are.
Invisible Troxa grabs Cole around the neck and pushes him against the wall Troxa turns visible.
Troxa:What do you think the source and the triad will say when I tell them you saved the witches and their descendant?
Cole:That I didn't want you to get them first.
Troxa lets go of his neck.
Troxa:You've had your chances Belthazor don't screw up mine again I strike tomorrow night you'd better not be here.
Cole:You don't scare me Troxa you never did.
Troxa:And you don't know how to defeat me Belthazor you never could after all.
He turns invisible.

Prue walks in.
Prue:Hey Phoebe did you borrow Grams' necklace again?

Prue:You sure?
Phoebe:I'm positive why?
Prue: What about my good luck blouse? Have you guys seen it?
Phoebe:The fuchsia paisley one? No I haven't.
Andy:Is anything else missing?
Prue:Not that I know of.
Andy:Prue this is important the guy who broke into the house probably took them.
Prue:Or a demon did for some weird ritualistic ceremony?
Piper:Oh.
Phoebe:Now would that be the pillow smothering demon or the lock picking one?
Melissa orbs in.
Melissa: Morning guys you all okay?
Piper:Not really we're all still kinda on a knife edge Prue had some stuff taken.
Melissa: Really? What kind of stuff?
Phoebe: A necklace belonging to our Grandmother and her good luck shirt.
Prue: Did you find anything out from the Elders?
Melissa: Yes as far as the Triad's concerned they don't know much they don't even know what it really is.
Prue:Wow six thousand years of conflict and that's it? These guys are serious underachievers.
Melissa:What they do know though is that the Triad's at the highest level of the other side one under the Source.
Phoebe:Okay that's big.
Prue:That's why we've gotta go after all of them now.
Prue hands Piper and Phoebe a bag.
Piper:What's this?
Prue:A way to always be prepared.
Phoebe:These are very big contraceptives Prue.
Prue:They're sneakers alright look we're always wearing inappropriate footwear when demons attack Mel and Leo have told us time and again but we don't listen now we will keep them with you at all times.
Phoebe:I'm gonna be so fast in these.
Prue: Oh I'd change your top to sis.
Phoebe: Why what's wrong with my top?
Prue: Its strapless backless and you're not wearing a bra not good demon fighting attire.
Piper: Okay Prue now your venturing into insania this is crazy.
The doorbell rings.
Hallway
Everyone walks in Piper unlocks the front door and opens it Darryl is standing there.
Darryl: Hi.
Piper:Hi.
Darryl:We're making progress.
He walks inside.
Darryl: The same set of fingerprints we found upstairs were also on the broken mirrors.
Andy: Did you check the FBI computer database?
Darryl:Yes but it came back negative.
Phoebe: What does that mean?
Andy: It means the perp has no criminal record.
Piper:So we're dealing with some weird crazy person?
Darryl:Can't say we don't have enough to go on all we've got are broken mirrors and no missing items.
Melissa: Actually there is stuff missing their Grandmother's necklace and Prue's favourite shirt.
Darryl:Hmm that's funny it's the only thing he took.
Andy: What you thinking Darryl a stalker?
Darryl: Could be.
Phoebe:A stalker? Who would wanna stalk us?
Andy:Anyone meaning you and your sister's will need to get a human grudge list together of folks you've known a long time or previously knew then like old boyfriends or classmate's or people you've not known long currently including work colleagues.
Melissa: Even people you know you'd think wouldn't be a stalker then?
Darryl: Even them yes.
Piper:Hey what about Roger?
Prue:My old fiancee I don't think so.
Phoebe: You did leave him under a cloud sis maybe he never got over that.
Darryl: She's right Prue the smallest things can set anyone off.
Prue: Well if it's a stalker then it's a demonic one.
Darryl:In any case I'll need that grudge list ASAP stalkers will do anything to obtain the object of their desire you could be in real danger Prue.
Prue:Thanks.
Darryl:Bye.
He leaves.
Andy: You need to listen to him Prue.
Prue:Why?
Andy: Because I'm worried about you that's why this isn't just someone smashing all your mirrors or breaking into your house this is someone breaking into your life into your heart they would've been studying you for months watching your every move that's why they go after people like you either they want you or wanna be you and they won't stop till they get you.
She hands Piper her shoes.
Prue: Okay Doctor Freud if you're finished with the pep talk I gotta go if the demon doesn't kill me the auction house will.
Outside Cole's office
Melissa walks up to Cole's office his assistant sees her.
Trudy: Excuse me miss can I help you?
Melissa: Yes I'm here to see Cole Turner.
Trudy: Do you have an appointment with him?
Melissa: No I don't.
Trudy: Then I'm sorry but I can't let you see him without one.
Melissa: (Angry) And I'm sorry but this can't wait.
She barges past her into Cole's office
Trudy: Hey miss you can't just barge in there.
She follows her.
Cole's Office
Sitting at his desk Cole looks at information on Troxa suddenly the door bursts open revealing Trudy his assistant and Melissa.
Trudy: I'm so sorry Mr Turner she was so insistent.
Cole sees Melissa's face and answers her.
Cole: That's alright Trudy I'll see her.
Trudy: Okay I'll be outside if you need anything.
Cole: Right thank you.
She leaves closing the door.
Cole: What you doing Mel you shouldn't be here?
Melissa: (Angry) cut the crap Cole Turner you exactly know why I'm here; I'm here because you know who's after my family.
Cole: I don't know what you're talking about?
Melissa: (Angry) Oh really?
Grabbing his neck she pushes him back against the table and stands right in front of him Cole gets bothered.
Cole: (Gasping) What the hell you doing?
Melissa: (Angry) Getting some answers so unless you wanna choke to death I suggest you tell me who's after them?
He doesn't answer so she tightens her grip and leans forward more this time he answers.
Cole: (Gasping) alright, alright I tell you.
She loosens her grip and steps away.
Cole: He's name's Troxa and he's not after your family he's after you.
Melissa: Me?
Cole: Yes the source and the triad know who you are now someone came back from your future and told them so they sent Troxa to kill you because they know you can't see him.
Melissa: He's invisible?
Cole nods his head.
Melissa: How's he vanquished?
Cole: I don't know but he's vulnerable to cold if he's exposed to it, it makes him partially visible so he can be seen.
Melissa: Well he can't just be after me because he tried to kill Prue with a pillow.
Cole: He's missions to kill you first then go after them later.
Melissa: So somehow we've gotta make it that they see him wait a sec if all the windows in the Manor were opened and the AC was turned on it might just be cold enough to do that I mean the weather man did say it would freeze tonight.
Cole: That's a good plan but what about you what if he tells them who you are?
Melissa: Hopefully he's vanquished before then.
Outside Cole's Office
Invisible Troxa walks out of the elevator and down the hall he walks into Cole's office
Cole's Office
He sees him talking to Melissa noticing a letter opener on the table he picks it up Cole sees it.
Cole: Mel watch out behind you
Seeing it she orbs out before the letter opener gets her Cole gets a fire extinguisher out under his table and sprays Troxa he turns visible screaming.
Troxa: Well, well Belthazor concerting with the enemy I always knew you were a traitor wait till the source and the triad hear about this.
Cole: You could tell them but then I'll have to say how you tried to kill the charmed ones already and failed then we'd both be vanquished and you don't want that do you?
Troxa:First her then them then you.
Troxa turns invisible and leaves closing the door behind him.
Prue's Office
She's appraising the Winslow's collection.
Prue: This is a very good animal collection you have here Mr Winslow especially the snake.
A guy with an Australian accent speaks.
Trevor: Why thanks Miss Halliwell and please call me Trevor yes the snake here's very old it's an original Black Snake Aborigine wood carving.
Prue: Wow they sound very dangerous.
Trevor: Not really Black Snake's aren't your known predator types they only attack if intimidated to protect themselves.
Prue: And what would you do if it attacked someone?
Trevor: Why catch it of course using a snake trap by luring them in with a ripping snake snack like a tiny Mickey mouse or a foggier.
Prue:Uh what did you say the cage was for again?
Trevor:For trapping snakes or any other varmints you might wanna get rid of.
Prue:Really?
Trevor: Yeah why do you ask?
Prue: Oh nothing you've just really helped me out with something.
Trevor: Oh right.
Prue: So I'll write up the evaluation report and send you a copy of it tomorrow and we should be good to go for the auction next week.
Trevor: Righto.
They both get up and head for the door which Prue opens she shakes Trevor's hand.

Phoebe:You okay sweetie?
Piper walks out of the room Phoebe follows they head towards the bar.
Piper:No.
Phoebe: So by the look on your face I take it you didn't tell him.

Piper:Wow you were busy in New York.
Phoebe:Yeah what about you?
Piper shows her, her pieces of paper to.
Phoebe: Huh you didn't put Leo on there.
Piper: Why wouldn't I put Leo on there?

Phoebe: Okay I get you so now that we have mine and yours all we need now is.
Prue walks up to them she's dressed different the girls look shocked.
Phoebe: Prue wow you look different.
Piper:Very different trousers sneakers no backless top what's happened?
Prue:I'm just been prepared encase the demon attacks have you guys seen Andy yet he said he'd meet and discuss what's going on.
Piper:No Prue we haven't sis you really need to stop all this business about a demon stalking you.
Prue:Don't worry I will when I catch him.
Piper:Catch him how?
Prue: I laid a trap we're gonna get this demon and instead of vanquishing him like always we're gonna make him talk about the source and the triad.
Phoebe:So is this like a bear trap with big claws?
Prue:I cast a spell over a series of cydarite crystals.
She holds up a crystal.
Prue: Sort of creating a power grid with the Book of Shadows as bait.
Piper:And that works how?
Prue:Well the minute the demon steps into the grid this glows and he's zapped.
Piper:So whatever it is electrocuted.
Prue:Yeah well whatever demon.
Phoebe:Hmm hmm and what about human? Or feline you're gonna fry Kit.
Prue:Well Kit can't get in cause' I locked the attic door.
Piper:So Prue you've booby trapped our house.
Prue:Hmm hmm.
Phoebe:And again what if it's human?
Prue:It's not.
She sees Andy.
Prue: Now if you'll guys excuse me I've a life to lead.
Prue walks away.
Piper:This is not good.
Phoebe:No it isn't and if she keeps this up we'll have to do a demon intervention.
Andy's sitting at a table Prue walks up to him and they kiss.
Prue:Hey.
Andy:Hey how you doing?
Prue: Fine you?
Abbey walks past seeing them.
Andy: Okay we're still trying to match up the finger prints on the mirrors but it's taking a long time.
Prue: Why doesn't anyone listen to me it's a demon I'm telling you.
Andy: Because I might not be up on this Wiccan game Prue but I do know a stalker when I see one and because I'm losing the girl I knew in high school you know the fun loving one the one who didn't have a care in the world.
Prue:Yeah well things change people change.
Andy: I know that what scares me.
Front Door
Cole opens the front door he and Melissa walk in.
Cole:Why you doing this Mel you would've vanquished him yourself?
He closes the front door she turns up the AC.
Melissa: That's exactly why I'm doing this Cole if I had vanquished him they would have wanted to know how I did it when the Elders said they didn't know who it was that would've meant exposing you which I won't.
They walk into the living room.
Melissa: Alright pick up that lamp and throw it on the floor we have to make it look like someone broke in again.
Cole does so and drops it on the floor Melissa starts opening up some windows.
Melissa: Okay I'll open all the windows downstairs you do upstairs.
Cole: Right.
He shimmers upstairs as she continues what she's doing.
Attic
Cole shimmers in and opens the attic door and the windows walking over he sees Prue's notepad and picks it up seeing the Book of Shadows on its pedestal he goes over to it the book moves away as he steps into the trap and he gets zapped.
Lounge
Melissa hears something in the attic.
Melissa: Cole?
She orbs up and sees him get zapped he morphs into Belthazor temporary then back into Cole and falls to the floor.

Hallway
Prue Piper Phoebe and Andy walk in.
Prue:Okay we don't really know what demon this is so we'll have to go in attacking Andy stay down here Piper you freeze him and I'll tie him up.
Piper: Speaking of freezing it's freezing in here.
Phoebe:That's because every window in the house is open what kind of demon does that?
Prue:Who cares everybody got their sneakers on?
Piper:Yeah, yeah.
Prue:Alright.
They run upstairs.
Attic
Melissa hears the sister's come up the stairs fast.
Melissa: Oh, oh it's them listen Cole I have to disappear just tell them you thought someone had broke in here that's why up you're upstairs.
She cloaks herself and passes them as they run in Prue turns on the light they see Cole lying there.
Piper:Cole?
Phoebe:What?
Prue:Wait it could be dangerous.
Phoebe:For god sake Prue he looks really hurt.
Prue: Phoebe it's a trap for demon's you do the math.
Phoebe kneels down beside Cole and rests his head on her knees.
Phoebe: What you doing here?
Cole:I came by to see how you were doing and noticed you weren't in.
Prue:So how did you get in and what you doing up here?
Cole:Well when I got here I saw that your front door was unlocked and the all windows were open.
Phoebe:You thought someone had broken into the house again?
Cole stands up.
Cole: Yeah.
Prue: Really when we locked our doors and windows before we left?
Cole: Well it wouldn't take a good thief long Prue to break into here the minimal security you have.
Turning round he sees the crystals on the floor then veers back again.
Cole: What happened? What's that?
Piper:Uh!
Prue:It's a trap.
Cole:A what?
Hallway
Time has elapsed everyone is coming downstairs.
Phoebe:Cole I'm so sorry please forgive us.
Cole:I'll take that under advisement.
Andy and a recently orbed in Melissa see what's happened to him.
Andy: Oh my god you okay?
Cole: No thanks to your girlfriend you really need to talk her lieutenant about the law and what happens to people who break it.
Phoebe:She panicked Prue wasn't thinking properly.
Prue:The hell I wasn't.
Cole:Do you know your traps the equivalent of having a loaded shot gun with a trip wire behind your front door? That's illegal I'm an ADA an officer of the court I could have you arrested.
Piper:Somebody turned on the AC why would they do that?
Cole looks at Melissa and then them.
Cole:I'm outta here.
He walks outside and Phoebe follows.
Porch
Phoebe:Cole wait I'm sorry we've just been under a lot pressure lately.
Cole:I'm just glad it wasn't you who did this to me.
He leaves Phoebe picks up a parcel that's sitting on the porch and takes it inside.
Phoebe:How could you? How far you gonna let this obsession go Prue?
Prue:Listen Phoebe.
Phoebe:No Prue you listen you didn't nearly catch a demon you nearly killed a district attorney my district attorney.
Prue:How do you know we didn't catch a demon? Think about it Phoebe he's always around when something's going on I mean look at tonight.
Melissa: Oh come on Prue you don't think he was just looking out for you.
Phoebe:That's okay Mel I know what she's thinking she think she's a plant trying to get close to me so he can kill us now is everyone a demon Prue? You're crazy right now.
Piper: Oh look here sis some nice flowers from Andy how sweet.
Andy: I never sent any flowers.
Prue goes to open the package.
Andy: No don't touch it.
He uncovers the package slowly the flowers are covered in worms.
Prue:Oh!
Piper:Oh that's disgusting look out look out.
Piper takes it outside.
Andy:Stay here I'll call Darryl.
He leaves.
Phoebe:There's your demon Prue.
Phoebe leaves.
Prue: Okay guy's that doesn't make sense why would someone send flowers with Andy's name on it?
Melissa:Well Darryl did say it only took a small thing to set them off.
Piper: Exactly maybe Phoebe's right and you're just not seeing the reality.
Prue:Piper my instincts are almost always right I have to trust them.
Piper:You have to trust them and I'm not saying you shouldn't but there other evils out there some of them even human.
Prescott Street
Cole's sitting on his BMW convertible Troxa walks up to him.
Troxa:I warned you Belthazor.
Cole:Hold it Troxa cool your jets I came to apologize.
Troxa:Apologize for what?
Cole:Pissing you off for one thing I don't wanna always be looking over my shoulder for the rest of eternity you want the charmed one's and their descendant they're all yours.
Troxa:I don't trust you.
Cole:Fine just don't blame your failure on me to the source or the triad.
Troxa starts to walk off and turns invisible.
Cole: By the way the key to getting them is in the Book of Shadows It's up in the attic.
Lounge
Phoebe Piper and Andy are in the living room Phoebe's slamming shut all the windows.
Piper:Be careful.
Phoebe:You know what? I don't care I'm so mad at Prue right now its one thing to be obsessed but it's another thing to hurt innocent people.
Andy:She's only trying to look out for you Phoebe there is a triad demon after you.
Phoebe:I understand that Andy but it's not Cole.
Hallway
Invisible Troxa opens the door and walks up the stairs.
Attic
Prue and Melissa are closing windows Troxa walks in seeing Melissa and goes over to her Prue steps on some glass and sees Troxa's reflection in the mirror.
Prue: Mel looks out.
Melissa turns around Prue uses her power and he flies into the wall turning visible he looks angrily at Prue then pounces on Melissa with a knife and makes her fall back against the book which both crash to the fall she bangs Troxa's hand a few times realizing the knife then punches him twice in the face seeing the trap behind her she throws him into it and he gets zapped.
Lounge
Hearing something upstairs Phoebe and Andy Piper run up to the attic.
Attic
Prue pulls one of the crystals out of the grid which stops zapping him Melissa gets anxious.
Melissa: Prue wait.
Prue:I want you to tell me everything you know about the triad who they are how they and the source plan to kill us answer me.
Troxa: You'll get nothing from me witch.
Prue puts the crystal back in the grid and zaps him again Piper Phoebe and Andy walk in she pulls it away.
Troxa: My name's Troxa the source and the triad sent me to find the daughter of Leo Wyatt and Piper Halliwell and kill her before she could help you vanquish the source.
He points his finger to Melissa.
Troxa: Her.
The gang look at her shocked.
Phoebe: (Shocked) Mel's Leo and Piper's daughter?
Troxa: But I'm not the only agent the triad and source has sent after you or her there's another his name is Belthazor.
Troxa's engulfed in flames and disappears in a hole in the floor.
Prue:Alright what the hell happened?
Phoebe:The Triad or the Source must've vanquished him.
Andy:So they know where you live now?
Phoebe: No they knew where he was all that matters he's gone right Piper, Piper?
Piper's not listening she's looking at Melissa dumbstruck Melissa looks back.
Melissa: (Uneasy) I'd better go.
Turning away she orbs out Piper leaves the room.
Prue: Okay that's a shocker.
Phoebe: A major one hey what you doing?
Prue goes over and picks the Book of Shadows up and starts flipping through the pages they follow her.
Prue: Looking up the demon we have to acknowledge him he did attack us after all.
Phoebe: Are you crazy we've just thought out Mel's are niece I think that pales in compassion don't you?
Prue: Not if the source or the triad send another demon like Troxa or Belthazor to attack us we can worry about Mel later.
She stumbles across Troxa.
Prue: Got him Troxa an invisible demon his weakness is his ectoplasmic biochemistry is sensitive to cold may become partially visible wait a sec if someone hadn't turned on the AC opened up all the windows and made it freezing in here I'd never have seen him.
Phoebe: Mel did it?
Andy: Mel is you sure?
Phoebe: It's gotta be Cole said he came here because he saw all the windows open.
Andy: Yeah but if Mel wanted to do that she would've orbed in I mean why open the front door and this one it doesn't make sense.
Prue: It does if your covering your tracks make it look like someone else broke in.
Phoebe: Whoa Prue wait a sec I just saw something go back a page.
She does so and they see an entry on Belthazor.
Andy: Belthazor beware this demonic soldier of fortune both powerful and dangerous he's destroyed countless witches innocents and demons as sinister as he's intelligent he's not to be trusted Belthazor's known abilities include throwing energy balls shimmering from place to place and conjuring athame's but his powers are not limited to those capabilities there's no known way to defeat him so Belthazor should be avoided at all costs.
Prue: He's upper level? Right that means we'll need his flesh to get him.
Phoebe:So Troxa was right there is somebody else out there to get us.
Prue:Well at least we know who he is now.
Andy: Which means your safe for now so I'll see you two tomorrow you gonna be alright?
Prue: Of course love you.
They kiss.
Andy: Love you too.
He leaves.
Phoebe:So you gonna be able to get some rest now?
Prue:No way I'm too wired besides my report on the Winslow collections due tomorrow.
Phoebe picks up Prue's notebook and sees Cole's name written on it.
Phoebe:Cole?
Prue:Right well I had to fill in something.
Phoebe:Do you think you could call Cole tomorrow and apologize to him?
Prue:Sure.
Lounge
Sitting on the couch Prue's writing up her report on the Winslow collection she picks up her cup of coffee Prue doesn't notice Abbey come up behind her and gag her mouth with chloroform the boiling hot coffee spills onto her eyes burning them Prue passes out.
Kitchen Monday Ninth December
Phoebe's there Piper comes in.
Phoebe: Hey sis how's you doing?
Piper: Not good especially when you find out the person who you thought was your friend from the future is actually your daughter.
Phoebe: Yeah I know me and Prue can't believe it either.
Piper: I mean I'm just in a stable relationship with a great guy and then I find out I have a daughter from another guy I can't even be with how's that possible?
Phoebe: I don't know maybe white lighters and witches are allowed to be together in the future.
Piper: So where does that leave Dan and me?
Phoebe: It leaves you both in a very complicated situation one you'll have to sort out.
Piper: But what do I do in the mean time? I've got to meet A1 this afternoon which means going to the club.
Phoebe: Well you have to go Piper you can't avoid her she's your daughter.
Piper: Thanks for reminding me Phoebe.
Phoebe: What? I'm just saying alright besides my grudge lists there and I wanna go over it.
Piper: Why?
Phoebe: Because there's so many things that don't add up the broken mirrors the dead flowers the stuff that's missing.
Piper:Are you obsessing now? It's over we were wrong.
Phoebe:I know but those aren't demonic things they're things a stalker might do like what Morris said.
Piper:Well he and Andy have all the information we gave them they'll figure it out.
Phoebe: Yeah okay let's go is Prue still sleeping?
Piper:Her beds made up and her cars not here maybe she went to Buckland's.
Phoebe: You sure it's really early is Buckland's even open yet? I'm gonna call her.

Prue realizes who it is.
Prue:Abbey?
Abbey:No you're wrong Abbey's gone forever she's a loser and you're a winner now I'm gonna be a winner too once I take care of you.
She puts on a black wig of hair and looks like Prue.
Abbey: Did you like the dead roses I sent you? Do you even know I was the one who broke into your house? I have to be you oh I love wearing your clothes your things makes me wanna be you even more beautiful successful loved by men even if we do pick up the wrong guys.
Prue:Andy's not the wrong guy.
Abbey:Oh yes he is he's a cop and cops aren't good I can do better than him.
She picks up a gun.
Abbey: Without you around now I've just one last question the other night I was here.
Prue starts untying her hands using her power
Abbey: When I was running away from you how the hell did you manage throw me through that door?

Phoebe comes forward and hugs her.
Phoebe: Of course we forgive you sweetie we know how hard it must've been for you keeping it a secret so long.
Melissa: It was very hard when I first saw you all I just wanted to hug and kiss you but I knew I couldn't because my job was to help you three vanquish the source and then go back to the future without you finding out who I really was.
The phone rings Piper answers it.
Piper:P three.
Darryl:Hey Piper where's Prue? I can't reach her anywhere at the manor on her cell.

Melissa laughs.
Prue: Yeah she's also got Gram's old sewing room as her own bedroom now.
Andy: That must be great not sleeping in the backroom anymore.
Melissa: Oh it is believe me not that I'm ungrateful to Piper letting me stay here but the room was so small and the couch was so cramp and my back was killing me that didn't do my posture any good.
Andy: Well at least you don't have to worry about that anymore.
Phoebe:No all we have to worry about now is Belthazor
Prue:I agree.

The End
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the charmed characters they all belong to Aaron Spelling productions except for Melissa.
Authors Notes: This is my series of Charmed going from season two to seven all stories will be the same as that on the show except seasons two and three, which will class as one year because of Dan and Cole the rest will continue as normal.
Note: My stories will be a little different but still have the same outcome so the episodes fit together. All the characters of Charmed including Andy Trudeau who didn't die Darryl Morris Triad Source will be recurring characters as well as Cole who works for the Triad. I'll be using spells from the show and some I create myself in these stories they'll be different but have the same affect and better sounding.
Extra Note: This episode's the same as Sight Unseen except for a few added or changed scenes like Melissa being the white lighter instead of Leo and a big surprise happens.
Episode Five
Clubroom Saturday Seventh December Nineteen Ninety Nine
Andy Phoebe and Melissa are at the bar Phoebe looks at her watch.
Phoebe: Hey Mitch you'd better get Andy another drink.
He looks at Andy sitting next to her.
Mitch:Okay but that's over the club limit.
Andy: No please I'm fine really Prue's just probably held up at work or something.
Piper approach's the bar.
Piper:Wait? She still hasn't called?
Melissa:Nope.
Piper:You think she's stood you up?
Andy:Not deliberately but ever since you guys came back from pilgrim times she's been on a demon bender.
Phoebe: Plus it's the only thing she talks about these days.
Melissa: And here I thought that was my job.
Coming back Mitch gives Andy his drink.
Piper:Hey Mitch better make that a double he'll need it when I'm finished with Prue.
She picks up the phone.
Phoebe:Speaking of men how you and Dan doing is he keeping you warm?
Piper:No he's not actually.
Phoebe:Oh honey you still freezing him like you did Leo when you and he?
Phoebe giggles.
Piper:No I'm not freezing him Phoebe I'm just undecided that's all.
Andy: Undecided about what?
Piper: About whether to tell Dan I'm a witch or not.
Phoebe: Aren't he and Jenny visiting her parents?
Piper: They are so I've only a week to decide what to do I mean we've been dating a month now and our relationships really heavy and the amount of times I've told him I've had to leave because of family emergencies it's no wonder he hasn't gotten suspicious yet.
Melissa: You sure you should tell him Piper? Do you think he could handle it?
Piper: I don't know I thought of using the truth spell in the Book of Shadows but after what happened when Prue used it I decided against it.
Phoebe: Thank god I don't want to be spilling all my gut secrets out again especially to Cole.
Piper dials Prue's cell on the phone.
Phoebe: If me and him continue this flirting tango thing I'm gonna have to start concentrating on myself.
Hearing her cell ring in her BMW X5 Prue answers it.
Prue:(In the phone) Hello?
Piper:Hey Prue where are you?
Prue:I'm on my way home from work Piper oh you'll never guess what I found on the internet remember Micah?
Piper:The seventh century hottie? How can we forget?
Melissa: Okay enough about the past tell her about the present.
Prue:Well I traced his ancestors and found an entire history of the village we visited I figured it might give us a clue to the identity of the demon that the source and the triad sent to kill us.
Piper:Um Prue aren't you forgetting something?
Prue:Not really my report on the Winslow collections not due till Monday.
Piper:No I mean something else like Andy and the fact you were supposed to be going out on a date with him.
Prue:Andy oh alright uh just give him a drink and explain to him what's happened.
Piper:If we give him anymore drinks we'll have to send him to an A.A. meeting.
Prue:How longs he been there?
Piper:About an hour and three hundred and twenty seven peanuts.
Prue:Alright what should I do?
Piper:Well remorse's good and attendances better.
Prue:Piper I'm half way across town besides I've gotta get home and look up all this demon stuff.
Piper:Can't that wait?
Prue:And you think the source and the triad will? Look we've gotta them before they get us so we can save Mel's future.
Piper Alright then.
She hangs up.
Phoebe:Is she okay?
Piper:Do you mean does Prue know the gravity of her actions and is coming back to normality nope.
Phoebe: I tell you that woman's obsessed even more so than Mel.
Melissa laughs.
Andy: God I hope she's not like that when we married.
Melissa: Who knows maybe that won't bother you about her?
Phoebe: Wait a sec Prue and Andy are married in the future?
Melissa: I can't tell you, you know that you'll have to find out yourself.
Piper: Are me and Dan still together? What about children you did say we have descendants in the future.
Melissa: Yes but I also said I can't tell you anything without bringing huge future conciseness's to light.
Phoebe: See that's the thing I don't like about time travel I mean what if something bad happened to us years gone say one of us dies of cancer because we smoked by knowing that now we can prevent it happening by not smoking then.
Melissa: Yeah but you know as well as I Phoebe the future's not set in stone things change.
Piper: Like Prue and her madness if she doesn't do something soon.
Front Porch

San Francisco Bay & City Night
Fading in various scenes of San Francisco bay and City are lit up whilst the song "Changing Face" by Comeback Kid's playing.
What have you become? Now you fight a losing war.
I look at this and it's all a mess seems like anything that's real, I just can't see.
I can't see the truth in you I can't see the real in you.
Show your face and take the world but instead, you have to fit the mould.
With this front you're losing respect I know you're better than that.
Your time is running out your front is wearing thin.
So how long can you live like this? I know this isn't who you really are.
Do you want to break free, from all the lies you put in front?
Now take them back do you want to break free?
I don't need a crew, to validate myself you're all the same.
Your identity's fading fast.
Living Room
Sitting on the couch Melissa's checking on Prue's arm whilst Piper's sweeping up the glass.
Melissa: It doesn't seem to be broken it's bruising mainly
Phoebe comes in carrying an ice pack.
Phoebe:Here you go Mel.
She hands her the ice pack which she places on Prue's shoulder.
Melissa: Thanks Phoebe.
Phoebe: You feeling better Prue?
Prue:I think so I was more stunned then hurt you know it just happened so fast.
Piper:It's eerie knowing somebody went through every room in the house smashing mirrors touching who knows what.
Phoebe:Fondling who knows what.
Piper:It's just so creepy well at least nothing's missing.
Prue:How do you know it wasn't a demon?
Melissa: Because demons don't usually fondle Prue.
Piper:Besides the only one we knew who used mirrors was Kali and we vanquished her sorry ass.
Prue:Yeah by smashing her reflection in the mirror.
Darryl and Andy come down the stairs.
Prue: I know she's supposed to be dead an all but so were the Grimlock's.
Melissa: That's different that was Halloween the day where all magic could be tapped into of course they could come back.
Darryl:Please don't remind me about them.
Piper:Did you two find anything?
Andy:Not much just a bunch of fingerprints that don't match any of your samples we'll run them through the computer see if any name's pop up.
Prue:They won't guy's hello Book of Shadows one o one mirrors the portals from which evil enters through.
Phoebe:Yeah but there finger prints and demons don't have fingers.
Darryl:Well on the human side of things we need you and your sisters to put together a grudge list of any enemies you have past or present.
Prue hands Darryl a piece of paper.
Prue:Already done.
Darryl:(Reading from the list) Javna Barbas Yama what did you do? Date the United Nations?
Prue:It's the demons warlocks and various forces of evil we've faced since becoming witches.
Andy:That's not exactly what we meant Prue.
Prue:Okay I'm gonna gets the Book of Shadows and see if I can find anything about mirrors.
Prue goes upstairs.
Darryl: Is she okay?
Phoebe:Prue's been a little fixated lately.
Melissa:More like obsessed do you think it was a bad human guy?
Andy:In any other house definitely around here you never know.
Prue:(From upstairs) Piper? Phoebe? Darryl? Andy? Mel?
The gang go upstairs to the Attic.
Attic
Piper Phoebe Darryl Andy and Melissa walk in.
Piper:What is it?
Prue:The door was unlocked.
Darryl:So?
Prue:So we normally lock it when we're not in the house or if someone's here who doesn't really know us then especially since the Source and the Triad sent a demon to wipe out our family line or if they try to take the Book Of Shadows.
Melissa: Prue you know demons don't unlock doors to get in right unless they're very low level who can't teleport and even if they had to unlock it unless they knew away around the protection spell the books save.
Darryl:Wait a sec you lock this door but not your front or back ones?
Phoebe: No of course we lock them Darryl.
Andy: But you don't have double locking though or a security alarm even.
Phoebe: Only because no-ones ever broken in like this before not even when our mom or Grams was alive.
Piper: Well they did have powers Phoebe.
Darryl:Maybe but still I'm surprised three young women living in a big city don't have adequate protection especially with a house like this.
Prue:Darryl we're three witches I think in this instance we can handle it.
Andy: (About the door) doesn't look like the door was jimmied.
Phoebe:So what do you thinking we're dealing Prue with a lock picking demon?
Piper:It doesn't look like anything's missing up here either.
Melissa:Exactly which why I think it's ludicrous not to rule out a human couldn't have done this.
Prue:Well I think it's ludicrous not to think the Source and the Triad have nothing to do with this.
Piper:Okay Darryl Andy why don't you both go check on those fingerprints us girls need to have a little conference here.
Darryl:Alright goodnight.
Phoebe:Night.
Darryl and Andy leave the room.
Prue:Okay Mel I need you to go up there and ask the Elders about everything they know about the triad.
Piper:Uh Prue? Maybe a little perspective here before you go and ask her to do that.
Melissa: Precisely like I don't think a demon did this so why should I go up there?
Prue: Because it's your job that's why look the source and the triad sent somebody back in time and nearly wiped out our entire line and I'm willing to bet they did this to.
She picks up the Book of Shadows.
Prue: Now if you guys don't wanna take that seriously that's your business me I'm on a mission.
Prue leaves.
Piper:Okay.
Phoebe:Alright we need to do something about Prue's paranoia soon or it'll destroy her Mel you'd better go up there even if it's just to put her mind at rest.
Melissa: Sure.
She orbs up to Elder Land.
Triad's Lair
The three triad members are standing in a circle with the source they summon Cole.
Cole: Why was I summoned here?
Source: You were summoned Belthazor because I've news I finally know who the charmed one's descendant is.
Cole: (Uneasy) Really? Who?
Triad One: Melissa Hale the daughter of Leo Wyatt and Piper Haliwell half white lighter half witch.
Cole: Hale? Isn't she called Halliwell or Wyatt?
Source: No Melissa was adopted after her real parents were killed in the future she's five foot six Mahogany red haired green eyed has tattoos on her back arm leg neck and waist though there probably hidden.
Cole: You're certain it's her?
Triad Two: Very certain the informant who first came back and told us of the future source's plan arrived here ten minutes ago how can you be sure we're not certain?
Cole:The fact he arrived here ten minutes ago proves it why did it take him so long to come back if he knew who the descendant was in the first place?
Triad Three:Because he's the future source's general and the timeline he comes from is a war zone literally witches and supernatural evil destroying each other which is why he couldn't leave his post till now.
Cole:So what do you want me to do kill her?
Source: No Melissa Hale's from twenty six years in the future with a vast amount of Wiccan knowledge she might know you and how to destroy you so we're assigning another.
Cole: You're replacing me? We had a bargain I get the charmed ones and their descendant you give me back my father's soul.
Triad One:This bargains in your best interests not ours.
Triad Two: Don't look at it as replacement Belthazor look at it as assistance besides Troxa can turn invisible even she can't see that which will make it easier for him to kill her then them.
Cole: You're sending Troxa?
Triad Three:We are however if either of you should be caught the same maxims apply we can't risk either of you leading the charmed ones or their descendant to us.
Source: Go Belthazor and make me proud.
Cole:Yes my liege.
He shimmers out.
Porch
Troxa's there he turns invisible opens the door and walks inside.

Cole:No you can't you don't know what kind of evil you're dealing with here.
Piper:Yeah we were just discussing what that weren't we Prue?
The door opens and Cole sees it close Melissa notices the way he looks.
Melissa: (Thinking to herself) He knows something well we'll definitely have a talk about what that is tomorrow morning.

Phoebe: Okay Prue this better be good.
Prue: Well when I was up in the attic and woke up there was a pillow hovering above my face about to smother me.
Piper:A pillow?
Andy:Hovering?
Prue nods.
Phoebe: Well that must be the infamous pillow smothering demon.
Piper:Maybe it was a nightmare.
Prue:It wasn't a nightmare and it certainly wasn't a joke there's a demon after me or us I know it.
Prue goes upstairs.
Melissa:(Thinking to herself)Yeah I'm starting to agree with you Aunt Prue.
Porch
Cole's there.
Cole:Come out, come out wherever you are.
Invisible Troxa grabs Cole around the neck and pushes him against the wall Troxa turns visible.
Troxa:What do you think the source and the triad will say when I tell them you saved the witches and their descendant?
Cole:That I didn't want you to get them first.
Troxa lets go of his neck.
Troxa:You've had your chances Belthazor don't screw up mine again I strike tomorrow night you'd better not be here.
Cole:You don't scare me Troxa you never did.
Troxa:And you don't know how to defeat me Belthazor you never could after all.
He turns invisible.
Troxa: You can't fight what you can't see.
Troxa pins him against the wall again he lets go and Cole coughs he hears someone coming and shimmers out Phoebe opens the front door and looks around.

Phoebe:I'm positive why?
Prue: What about my good luck blouse? Have you guys seen it?
Phoebe:The fuchsia paisley one? No I haven't.
Andy:Is anything else missing?
Prue:Not that I know of.
Andy:Prue this is important the guy who broke into the house probably took them.
Prue:Or a demon did for some weird ritualistic ceremony?
Piper:Oh.
Phoebe:Now would that be the pillow smothering demon or the lock picking one?
Melissa orbs in.
Melissa: Morning guys you all okay?
Piper:Not really we're all still kinda on a knife edge Prue had some stuff taken.
Melissa: Really? What kind of stuff?
Phoebe: A necklace belonging to our Grandmother and her good luck shirt.
Prue: Did you find anything out from the Elders?
Melissa: Yes as far as the Triad's concerned they don't know much they don't even know what it really is.
Prue:Wow six thousand years of conflict and that's it? These guys are serious underachievers.
Melissa:What they do know though is that the Triad's at the highest level of the other side one under the Source.
Phoebe:Okay that's big.
Prue:That's why we've gotta go after all of them now.
Prue hands Piper and Phoebe a bag.
Piper:What's this?
Prue:A way to always be prepared.
Phoebe:These are very big contraceptives Prue.
Prue:They're sneakers alright look we're always wearing inappropriate footwear when demons attack Mel and Leo have told us time and again but we don't listen now we will keep them with you at all times.
Phoebe:I'm gonna be so fast in these.
Prue: Oh I'd change your top to sis.
Phoebe: Why what's wrong with my top?
Prue: Its strapless backless and you're not wearing a bra not good demon fighting attire.
Piper: Okay Prue now your venturing into insania this is crazy.
The doorbell rings.
Hallway
Everyone walks in Piper unlocks the front door and opens it Darryl is standing there.
Darryl: Hi.
Piper:Hi.
Darryl:We're making progress.
He walks inside.
Darryl: The same set of fingerprints we found upstairs were also on the broken mirrors.
Andy: Did you check the FBI computer database?
Darryl:Yes but it came back negative.
Phoebe: What does that mean?
Andy: It means the perp has no criminal record.
Piper:So we're dealing with some weird crazy person?
Darryl:Can't say we don't have enough to go on all we've got are broken mirrors and no missing items.
Melissa: Actually there is stuff missing their Grandmother's necklace and Prue's favourite shirt.
Darryl:Hmm that's funny it's the only thing he took.
Andy: What you thinking Darryl a stalker?
Darryl: Could be.
Phoebe:A stalker? Who would wanna stalk us?
Andy:Anyone meaning you and your sister's will need to get a human grudge list together of folks you've known a long time or previously knew then like old boyfriends or classmate's or people you've not known long currently including work colleagues.
Melissa: Even people you know you'd think wouldn't be a stalker then?
Darryl: Even them yes.
Piper:Hey what about Roger?
Prue:My old fiancee I don't think so.
Phoebe: You did leave him under a cloud sis maybe he never got over that.
Darryl: She's right Prue the smallest things can set anyone off.
Prue: Well if it's a stalker then it's a demonic one.
Darryl:In any case I'll need that grudge list ASAP stalkers will do anything to obtain the object of their desire you could be in real danger Prue.
Prue:Thanks.
Darryl:Bye.
He leaves.
Andy: You need to listen to him Prue.
Prue:Why?
Andy: Because I'm worried about you that's why this isn't just someone smashing all your mirrors or breaking into your house this is someone breaking into your life into your heart they would've been studying you for months watching your every move that's why they go after people like you either they want you or wanna be you and they won't stop till they get you.
She hands Piper her shoes.
Prue: Okay Doctor Freud if you're finished with the pep talk I gotta go if the demon doesn't kill me the auction house will.
Outside Cole's office
Melissa walks up to Cole's office his assistant sees her.
Trudy: Excuse me miss can I help you?
Melissa: Yes I'm here to see Cole Turner.

She follows her.
Cole's Office
Sitting at his desk Cole looks at information on Troxa suddenly the door bursts open revealing Trudy his assistant and Melissa.

Cole sees Melissa's face and answers her.
Cole: That's alright Trudy I'll see her.
Trudy: Okay I'll be outside if you need anything.
Cole: Right thank you.
She leaves closing the door.
Cole: What you doing Mel you shouldn't be here?
Melissa: (Angry) cut the crap Cole Turner you exactly know why I'm here; I'm here because you know who's after my family.
Cole: I don't know what you're talking about?
Melissa: (Angry) Oh really?
Grabbing his neck she pushes him back against the table and stands right in front of him Cole gets bothered.
Cole: (Gasping) What the hell you doing?
Melissa: (Angry) Getting some answers so unless you wanna choke to death I suggest you tell me who's after them?
He doesn't answer so she tightens her grip and leans forward more this time he answers.
Cole: (Gasping) alright, alright I tell you.
She loosens her grip and steps away.
Cole: He's name's Troxa and he's not after your family he's after you.
Melissa: Me?
Cole: Yes the source and the triad know who you are now someone came back from your future and told them so they sent Troxa to kill you because they know you can't see him.
Melissa: He's invisible?
Cole nods his head.
Melissa: How's he vanquished?
Cole: I don't know but he's vulnerable to cold if he's exposed to it, it makes him partially visible so he can be seen.
Melissa: Well he can't just be after me because he tried to kill Prue with a pillow.
Cole: He's missions to kill you first then go after them later.
Melissa: So somehow we've gotta make it that they see him wait a sec if all the windows in the Manor were opened and the AC was turned on it might just be cold enough to do that I mean the weather man did say it would freeze tonight.
Cole: That's a good plan but what about you what if he tells them who you are?
Melissa: Hopefully he's vanquished before then.
Outside Cole's Office

Troxa: Well, well Belthazor concerting with the enemy I always knew you were a traitor wait till the source and the triad hear about this.
Cole: You could tell them but then I'll have to say how you tried to kill the charmed ones already and failed then we'd both be vanquished and you don't want that do you?
Troxa:First her then them then you.
Troxa turns invisible and leaves closing the door behind him.

Trevor: Why thanks Miss Halliwell and please call me Trevor yes the snake here's very old it's an original Black Snake Aborigine wood carving.
Prue: Wow they sound very dangerous.
Trevor: Not really Black Snake's aren't your known predator types they only attack if intimidated to protect themselves.
Prue: And what would you do if it attacked someone?
Trevor: Why catch it of course using a snake trap by luring them in with a ripping snake snack like a tiny Mickey mouse or a foggier.
Prue:Uh what did you say the cage was for again?
Trevor:For trapping snakes or any other varmints you might wanna get rid of.
Prue:Really?
Trevor: Yeah why do you ask?
Prue: Oh nothing you've just really helped me out with something.

Prue:I'm just been prepared encase the demon attacks have you guys seen Andy yet he said he'd meet and discuss what's going on.
Piper:No Prue we haven't sis you really need to stop all this business about a demon stalking you.
Prue:Don't worry I will when I catch him.
Piper:Catch him how?
Prue: I laid a trap we're gonna get this demon and instead of vanquishing him like always we're gonna make him talk about the source and the triad.
Phoebe:So is this like a bear trap with big claws?
Prue:I cast a spell over a series of cydarite crystals.
She holds up a crystal.
Prue: Sort of creating a power grid with the Book of Shadows as bait.
Piper:And that works how?
Prue:Well the minute the demon steps into the grid this glows and he's zapped.
Piper:So whatever it is electrocuted.
Prue:Yeah well whatever demon.
Phoebe:Hmm hmm and what about human? Or feline you're gonna fry Kit.
Prue:Well Kit can't get in cause' I locked the attic door.
Piper:So Prue you've booby trapped our house.
Prue:Hmm hmm.
Phoebe:And again what if it's human?
Prue:It's not.
She sees Andy.
Prue: Now if you'll guys excuse me I've a life to lead.
Prue walks away.
Piper:This is not good.
Phoebe:No it isn't and if she keeps this up we'll have to do a demon intervention.
Andy's sitting at a table Prue walks up to him and they kiss.
Prue:Hey.
Andy:Hey how you doing?
Prue: Fine you?
Abbey walks past seeing them.
Andy: Okay we're still trying to match up the finger prints on the mirrors but it's taking a long time.
Prue: Why doesn't anyone listen to me it's a demon I'm telling you.
Andy: Because I might not be up on this Wiccan game Prue but I do know a stalker when I see one and because I'm losing the girl I knew in high school you know the fun loving one the one who didn't have a care in the world.
Prue:Yeah well things change people change.
Andy: I know that what scares me.
Front Door
Cole opens the front door he and Melissa walk in.
Cole:Why you doing this Mel you would've vanquished him yourself?
He closes the front door she turns up the AC.
Melissa: That's exactly why I'm doing this Cole if I had vanquished him they would have wanted to know how I did it when the Elders said they didn't know who it was that would've meant exposing you which I won't.
They walk into the living room.
Melissa: Alright pick up that lamp and throw it on the floor we have to make it look like someone broke in again.
Cole does so and drops it on the floor Melissa starts opening up some windows.
Melissa: Okay I'll open all the windows downstairs you do upstairs.
Cole: Right.
He shimmers upstairs as she continues what she's doing.

Prue: Phoebe it's a trap for demon's you do the math.
Phoebe kneels down beside Cole and rests his head on her knees.
Phoebe: What you doing here?
Cole:I came by to see how you were doing and noticed you weren't in.
Prue:So how did you get in and what you doing up here?
Cole:Well when I got here I saw that your front door was unlocked and the all windows were open.
Phoebe:You thought someone had broken into the house again?
Cole stands up.
Cole: Yeah.
Prue: Really when we locked our doors and windows before we left?
Cole: Well it wouldn't take a good thief long Prue to break into here the minimal security you have.
Turning round he sees the crystals on the floor then veers back again.
Cole: What happened? What's that?
Piper:Uh!
Prue:It's a trap.
Cole:A what?
Hallway
Time has elapsed everyone is coming downstairs.
Phoebe:Cole I'm so sorry please forgive us.
Cole:I'll take that under advisement.
Andy and a recently orbed in Melissa see what's happened to him.
Andy: Oh my god you okay?
Cole: No thanks to your girlfriend you really need to talk her lieutenant about the law and what happens to people who break it.
Phoebe:She panicked Prue wasn't thinking properly.
Prue:The hell I wasn't.
Cole:Do you know your traps the equivalent of having a loaded shot gun with a trip wire behind your front door? That's illegal I'm an ADA an officer of the court I could have you arrested.
Piper:Somebody turned on the AC why would they do that?
Cole looks at Melissa and then them.
Cole:I'm outta here.
He walks outside and Phoebe follows.

Phoebe:How could you? How far you gonna let this obsession go Prue?
Prue:Listen Phoebe.
Phoebe:No Prue you listen you didn't nearly catch a demon you nearly killed a district attorney my district attorney.
Prue:How do you know we didn't catch a demon? Think about it Phoebe he's always around when something's going on I mean look at tonight.
Melissa: Oh come on Prue you don't think he was just looking out for you.
Phoebe:That's okay Mel I know what she's thinking she think she's a plant trying to get close to me so he can kill us now is everyone a demon Prue? You're crazy right now.
Piper: Oh look here sis some nice flowers from Andy how sweet.

Piper takes it outside.
Andy:Stay here I'll call Darryl.
He leaves.
Phoebe:There's your demon Prue.
Phoebe leaves.
Prue: Okay guy's that doesn't make sense why would someone send flowers with Andy's name on it?
Melissa:Well Darryl did say it only took a small thing to set them off.
Piper: Exactly maybe Phoebe's right and you're just not seeing the reality.
Prue:Piper my instincts are almost always right I have to trust them.
Piper:You have to trust them and I'm not saying you shouldn't but there other evils out there some of them even human.

Troxa: You'll get nothing from me witch.
Prue puts the crystal back in the grid and zaps him again Piper Phoebe and Andy walk in she pulls it away.
Troxa: My name's Troxa the source and the triad sent me to find the daughter of Leo Wyatt and Piper Halliwell and kill her before she could help you vanquish the source.
He points his finger to Melissa.
Troxa: Her.
The gang look at her shocked.
Phoebe: (Shocked) Mel's Leo and Piper's daughter?
Troxa: But I'm not the only agent the triad and source has sent after you or her there's another his name is Belthazor.
Troxa's engulfed in flames and disappears in a hole in the floor.
Prue:Alright what the hell happened?
Phoebe:The Triad or the Source must've vanquished him.
Andy:So they know where you live now?
Phoebe: No they knew where he was all that matters he's gone right Piper, Piper?
Piper's not listening she's looking at Melissa dumbstruck Melissa looks back.
Melissa: (Uneasy) I'd better go.
Turning away she orbs out Piper leaves the room.
Prue: Okay that's a shocker.
Phoebe: A major one hey what you doing?
Prue goes over and picks the Book of Shadows up and starts flipping through the pages they follow her.
Prue: Looking up the demon we have to acknowledge him he did attack us after all.
Phoebe: Are you crazy we've just thought out Mel's are niece I think that pales in compassion don't you?
Prue: Not if the source or the triad send another demon like Troxa or Belthazor to attack us we can worry about Mel later.
She stumbles across Troxa.
Prue: Got him Troxa an invisible demon his weakness is his ectoplasmic biochemistry is sensitive to cold may become partially visible wait a sec if someone hadn't turned on the AC opened up all the windows and made it freezing in here I'd never have seen him.
Phoebe: Mel did it?
Andy: Mel is you sure?
Phoebe: It's gotta be Cole said he came here because he saw all the windows open.
Andy: Yeah but if Mel wanted to do that she would've orbed in I mean why open the front door and this one it doesn't make sense.
Prue: It does if your covering your tracks make it look like someone else broke in.
Phoebe: Whoa Prue wait a sec I just saw something go back a page.
She does so and they see an entry on Belthazor.
Andy: Belthazor beware this demonic soldier of fortune both powerful and dangerous he's destroyed countless witches innocents and demons as sinister as he's intelligent he's not to be trusted Belthazor's known abilities include throwing energy balls shimmering from place to place and conjuring athame's but his powers are not limited to those capabilities there's no known way to defeat him so Belthazor should be avoided at all costs.
Prue: He's upper level? Right that means we'll need his flesh to get him.
Phoebe:So Troxa was right there is somebody else out there to get us.
Prue:Well at least we know who he is now.
Andy: Which means your safe for now so I'll see you two tomorrow you gonna be alright?
Prue: Of course love you.
They kiss.
Andy: Love you too.
He leaves.
Phoebe:So you gonna be able to get some rest now?
Prue:No way I'm too wired besides my report on the Winslow collections due tomorrow.
Phoebe picks up Prue's notebook and sees Cole's name written on it.
Phoebe:Cole?
Prue:Right well I had to fill in something.
Phoebe:Do you think you could call Cole tomorrow and apologize to him?
Prue:Sure.
