PROGENY 105
Set 18 years after Charmed Season 8, based around Wyatt and Chris. Wyatt is now 21 and Chris is 18. There is also 16-year-old Prudence Melinda.
Demons haven’t caused many problems over the past few years, but it hasn’t stopped the boys from preparing, just in case.
Suspicions rise when a top business man is found murdered, and an athame is found at the crime scene.
Meanwhile, in the underworld, a new Source has been created, after marrying a witch. And to top it all off, the Source’s bride is Paige’s charge and Wyatt has fallen for the Source’s powerful daughter, who’s not all she seems.
EPISODE 5: EBONY runs into her brother, causing more trouble. PRUDENCE meets ‘NICK’ while at working at the health spa. She soon finds out there’s a reason for his love of water.

EBONY

DAMIEN

NICK
But you came here to swim, don’t let me stop you.
PRUDENCE
Are you sure? I’ll only do a few lengths.
NICK
Sure.
PRUDENCE gets into the water. She starts to swim away from NICK. NICK looks over at the lifeguard who is watching PRUDENCE. NICK waves his arm towards the water. The water near him starts to bubble. The bubbling water gets closer to PRUDENCE, until it reaches her. PRUDENCE screams in agony. The lifeguard dives into the water after PRUDENCE, but is overcome by the hot water. We can see the steam rising from the water. NICK walks by the side of the pool and stands over PRUDENCE. He stops the water from bubbling. The lifeguard is dead, PRUDENCE is barely alive. She is covered in burns. NICK pulls her out of the water.

CHRIS
Oh really. So you’re not a demon.
EBONY

What! No he’s not. My dad is…
CHRIS
Your dad…wait, you’ll know where my Aunt Paige is.
EBONY

Don’t play dumb. You know exactly what’s going on. You weren’t kidnapped from Magic School were you?
EBONY
Chris…
CHRIS
You weren’t, were you? You’ve got yourself right where you and your family want you.
EBONY
I’ve ran away from my family. They were manipulating me. Yeah, I started off trying to lead Wyatt to the underworld but I’m not anymore. I changed Chris…

CHRIS
You were brought up as a demon…
