Prologue: The Choice

Cole looked steadily at Phoebe her arms were crossed and she was looking at the ground. The two had been arguing since Cole had arrived home and she was confused."I don't know what to do." She muttered.

Cole then turned away slightly. "Well you can't go back." He commented walking over to where the tonic was sitting as he looked at it for a moment thinking. "There is only one choice" he mummered picking up the tonic and moving it around some. "Drink the tonic." Cole then made his way over to where Phoebe was "you have to know that I would never do anything to hurt you. Please." He then looked her in the eyes "for us, for our son." He said holding out the tonic.

Phoebe looked uncertainly at the glass that Cole her husband the source was holding out to her. His words then reflected in her mind either drink it or leave, it was that simple. Then why did she feel so confused and lost. The tonic was evil the purest of its kind, yet part of her, she wasn't sure if it was her baby or herself told her to drink it.

The golden liquid seemed to glimmer even in the dull light of the room. She then felt a strange feeling in her stomach, she knew it to be her baby, her son, she suddenly wanted to protect the child, no matter what. She had to make a choice and she hoped it was the right one. Her hand then shot out and she took the glass and swallowed the tonic gagging at the taste before dropping the glass.

Cole's eyes then looked hopeful as he hugged his wife. "I love your Phoebe. Know that, and that we must stand together in the face of whatever comes."

She nodded feeling strength again as the weakness she felt earlier seemed to start to fade. The seer was right, it was best that she accepted her choice and welcomed her new family, her son and her husband Cole. That was all that mattered, as she pulled away smiling, but at the same time feeling strange, the tonic seemed to be kicking into effect.

"What's wrong?" Cole asked looking down at her.

Pheobe was about to answer when a flurry of blue lights came into the area to reveal Piper and Leo in one area, and Paige holding a box. A very familar looking box. "What are you doing here?" She asked annoyed.

"We are here to destroy the Source, your husband and your demon child." Piper called out already pulling out potions.

"Piper!" Paige shouted out before turning towards Pheobe. "We are here to save you, to bring you back honey." She then shifted the box around.

"I told you I don't need to be saved." Pheobe stated calmly keeping her eyes on Piper.

Piper then shifted a potion and threw it at Pheobe as she raised a hand causing a sheet of flame to come up and destroy it. Piper then quickly handed the potions to Leo, to keep her now ex-sister busy. She then concentrated and threw forward her power and blew up Cole, causing the debris to fly around like bugs. "Time to destroy your evil!"

Paige then took her chance and began running around Cole setting up the crystals, and as he formed back.

"Paige." Piper commented causing the girl to look up and be thrown across the room by Cole raising a hand causing the last crystal to be knocked away. Piper looked at Cole blowing him up again before calling out. "Leo!"

At the same time as the battle was happening Leo was keeping Pheobe busy by throwing potions at her and when she threw flame he would orb out of the way. Both seemed to be reaching a stalemate. Out of the corner of his eye he saw Paige go flying across the room and heard Piper call out, he then ran over to his sister in-law and began to heal her.

Cole angered by the atempts by his in-laws raised up his hand as a giant fireball appeared, and he looked over to where he had thrown Paige. He would destroy those two first, as much as he didn't truely want to. Leo had healed Paige she slowly began to stand glaring at Cole the entire time. Piper meanwhile took a chance for the distraction, found the remaining crystal she started to sneak towards it, when a sheet of fire got in her way.

"I don't think so dear sister." Pheobe answered walking over to Cole, she held out her hand and the crystal floated over to her.

"It's not too late you can still come back to us Pheobe. Think of our family." Paige pleaded from where she was standing next to Leo.

Pheobe then looked at the crystal for a moment hesitating, before squeezing it in her hand as the energy was releashed. At that moment the tonic was in full cycle through her body she felt strength and power and anger. She then threw the remaining crystal in the air which was dust, she suddenly didn't care at all about her former sisters and brother in-law. All her mind told her is that the women were witch's, the man a whitelighter, and they posed a threat to her family.

Cole looked at the flaming ball in his hand then to his wife. "It is high time that the former Charmed Ones were destroyed, sorry honey, but I can't have your sisters around anymore, as much as I wish they would leave." He then turned to Piper then launched the flaming ball at her who was too shocked to move out of the way. She suddenly was hoping Paige was right and Phoebe would save her.

Time seemed to slow as Paige watched Piper just stand there, her eyes turned to Phoebe to see her sister just smirking, but lookig like she was ready to attack. Realizing no help would come Paige activated her orbing powers and flew over to Piper pushing her out of the way. Her sister was safe at least one of them as she turned, realizing it was too late, the ball of flame hit her. It hurt, it hurt so much, the flames were on her skin, then nothing, she screamed and when the smoke cleared all there was left of Paige was a pile of sand.

There was silence in the room as there was too much of a shock at what happened. Smoke was still rising up from it as a burn mark was scrouched on the wall.

"How noble dieing for a useless cause." Pheobe muttered coldly. During the death of the witch she felt something torn from her, something important. Something she felt that would never come back no matter how hard she tried to find it, yet it didn't seem to matter as it was gone as soon as it came.

Piper suddenly stood up angry. "How dare you say that of Paige, your own sister! She died trying to save you, to save your goodness inside" She screamed out tears brimming in her eyes, as Leo came over feeling strangely off since Paige's death.

Pheobe shrugged. "You will be joining her soon enough so you might as well grieve now." She then raised up her hand forcefully as fire came from her fingertips.

At the same time Piper pulled out another potion, the posion one to use on her now demon sister, at least she could take the child with her....

She never got to use it as blue lights filled her vision as Leo orbed them out of there. Pheobe's flame hit the wall as she screamed out in frustration. "They got away." She growled suddenly feeling ticked off.

Cole with a flash of his eyes as they turned black looked at the crystals and they desinegrated in a blast of fire. He then held out his hand and launched another flaming fireball at Paige's remains causing the sand to become ashes and smoke. "That took care of one, now come to bed. We can discuss more on how to deal with your other sister and brother in-law in the morning." He mummered, as he turned and walked to the bedroom.

Pheobe stood there for a moment longer staring at her once sister Paige, to the ashes of her now on the floor. She had made her choice, Cole and her son over her sisters, and one had already paid the price of her choice. She was no longer a charmed one, her visions having faded with her last drink of tonic, and her other witch powers faded when Paige met her death. She was now the wife of the Source, Queen of the Underworld, and pregnant with the heir to the throne.

Slowly she turned from her past destiny and walked into her bedroom where Cole was waiting.....
