| Hear now the words of the witches, The secrets we hid in the night. The oldest of Gods are invoked here, The great work of Magic is sought. In this night and in this hour, I call upon the Ancient Power. Bring your powers to we sisters three, We want the power, give us the power! The chant that started it all, blessing three seemly normal sisters with gifts beyond their wildest imagination. The Halliwell sisters, Prue, Piper and Phoebe had never knew that one day, they would become the protectors of the innocents and the most powerful witches that fights the forces of darkness. Life had never been easy for the Halliwell sisters, especially when their mother, Patty, drowned and their father, Victor, disappeared from their lives. When they were young, they lived with their grandmother, Penny, in the historic manor, never dreaming one day that they would discover the truth about themselves The story begins with Prue and Piper moving back to the manor after their grandmother died of heart attack. Penny, or whom they lovingly called Grams, had willed the magical manor to them but failed to inform them of their destiny. Prue was working at the local museum, having a hard time from her ex- fiancé boss while Piper, who attached to her caring news-reporting boyfriend, Jeremy, was about to audition for a job as a manager at Quake. Phoebe just came back from New York, after a failed attempt to search for their father, was tentative about meeting Prue again, after the incident where Prue thought that Phoebe was seducing her fiancé. Phoebe went up to the attic after receiving a message from the spirit board while Prue and Piper was in the basement checking the mains to see what causes the manor to black out during a thunderstorm. Phoebe finally opened the attic door, which stubbornly remained locked to the other sisters, and discovered the aged-old Book of Shadows. The remaining sisters found her in the attic, dazed and realized that she is messing around with what Prue called, the "book of witchcraft". Prue was naturally pissed off while Piper freaked out. Within this very book which was handed from generation to generation, Phoebe found the spell to call upon their powers. However, the fact that they are the Charmed Ones, the most powerful witches the world has ever known, was undeniable and soon, they had a lot of demons, warlocks and other minions of darkness on them, trying to destroy them or to steal their powers. A few times, they were almost successful but the sisters put aside their differences and managed to save the day. But their fight soon turned desperate after their beloved eldest sister, Prue, died in a demonic attack from Shax, the personal assassin of The Source. The Power Of Three, the magic the sisters harnessed every time to defeat the servants of evil, was reunited when they discovered that their mother had a baby with her whitelighter, Sam. Suddenly, Piper as entrusted with the responsibility of teaching Paige, their hybrid half sister, all knowledge about magic, forced to take on the role of a protective eldest sister and to be a loving wife to Leo all at the same time. In the mean time, Phoebe has to juggle between the full-bloom romance with Cole, the idea of being an elder sister to Paige and being a wife to Cole. Paige, on the other hand, has to deal with the fact that she has two sisters and most of all, that together, they were the Charmed Ones and had to battle The Source Of All Evil. Their brittle sisterly relationship began to grow stronger as they started to overcome their differences and co-exist with one another peacefully under the roof of the Halliwell Manor. The Power Of Three was back in action as they took up their post to fight the forces of darkness again, despite each of them were facing their personal problems. Will the sisters ever defeat the never-ending minions of darkness? Or will they lose the battle against The Source? This is probably their answer: “The Power Of Three Will Set Us Free!” |
