## 7 hours later in the Underworld##
"My lord I have important news." the demon says as he enters the Source's chambers and kneels in front of him.
"What is it?" he ask
"Someone has been asking questions about the one known as Raizen." he says
"What!" he shouts furiously as he stands up. "Who is this person?" he ask angrily
"Belthazor and his witch." he says
"Belthazor again, always in my way. Why isn't he dead yet is the bounty on his head to big enough? Is there anything else?" he ask
"No my lord." the demon says
"Then leave me. " the Source says and the demon shimmers out.
"Seer!" he shouts A few moments later she flames in.
"You summoned me my lord." she says
"I have some interesting news. It would appear that Raizen has resurfaced." he says
"Are you serious, finally a break after all these years of searching. How did you come upon this information?" she ask
"One of my minions reported that Belthazor and Phoebe were snooping and asking questions about him." he says
"If that's true then he may already be in the Charmed Ones company, we need to be careful and act accordingly if we're to recruit him to our side." she says
"What do you have in mind?" he asked
"First we make sure that it really is him. Second he's obviously still in love with Piper so we need to destroy their bond. It's one of the main reasons why we couldn't turn him, without it he'll be vulnerable and easily swayed. You remember what happened when he broke out and we tried to recapture him?" she asked
"How could I forget. He went on a killing spree in the Underworld attacking and killing any demon he ran into. I sent my best demons after him and he killed most of them with ease and without hesitation. I was told by the few that survived that there was total bloodlust in his eyes, he killed without mercy, without remorse, and he enjoyed every minute of it. He would make the perfect bodyguard and assassin for me, you could say that its ironic that he would replace Belthazor. the Source says
"More like twisted irony." she says
"He could create an unstoppable army for me and with it take control of this world an plunge it into total darkness." he says Then suddenly a demon appears before him kneeling on one knee.
"Yes my lord you called for me?" the demon ask
"Yes Marek I have a very important mission for you. I need you you to spy on the Charmed Ones and make conformation that Raizen is in their company." The Source says Marek looks up at him shocked
"He's been found!" Marek ask
"We believe so but we need to make sure. I know that you have a score to settle with him but I need you to control yourself and refrain from attacking him. You're my best tracker and one of the few demons that I can trust right now, I'm counting on you. the Source says Marek simply nods and flames out.
"Are you sure that you can trust him to complete this mission?" sitting and watching is not his style. she ask
"I have complete confidence that he will not fail me." he says
-P3-
"Is he here yet, do you see him?" Piper ask frantically
"For the fifth time no, why are you so antsy?" Paige ask
"Just a little worried , the last time he said he would meet me he disappeared for 7 years. Maybe I should call him again." Piper says
"No!" both Paige and Phoebe say at the same time
"Piper you're obsessing again. You heard him, he's not going to leave us again." Phoebe says
"Yeah its not even 10, besides he's a big boy he can take care of himself." Paige says
"You don't know how big." Piper says with a devilish grin on her face.
"Piper!" Phoebe says
"What it's the truth, lighten up." Piper says
"Whoa Piper what's gotten into you, this is like a whole different side of you." Cole says
"He's back for a few day s and you revert back to your old self." Phoebe says
"I can't help it he brings out that side in me." Piper says smiling
"Just control yourself you are a married woman after all." Phoebe says
"Hey Piper I got a question, earlier today before Chris left and you two were staring at each other, I felt this strong emotion radiating from the both of you. What was that all about?" Paige ask
"Did it happen again, I'm so embarrassed. Phoebe why didn't you say something?" Piper asked
"It wouldn't have done any good, its not like you can turn it off." Phoebe says
"That's why Leo looked so upset this morning when he left. We haven't been getting along lately and this whole situation hasn't made things any better." Piper says sighing deeply "Anyways to answer your question when our feelings for each other reach a tipping point they tend to leak out and let others feel our emotions. It can become overwhelming at times." she says
"No kidding I was almost floored by it, the feeling was so intense that I started to cry. I had never felt that way before, the best way I can describe it is pure joy and happiness." Paige says intensely remembering the experience
"I suppose all first loves feel that way." Piper says
"Or true loves." Phoebe says
Piper gives a big sigh. "Maybe but its too late now." she says looking upset
"When the both of them were dating they couldn't keep their hands off of each other." Phoebe says
"Come on Pheebs they don't want to hear about our sexual exploits." Piper says
"Oh yes we do." Paige says grinning
"Prue and Grams would have to pull them off of each other it got so heavy. They even got pretty loud sometimes at night even though they thought no one was around." Phoebe says
"You were listening?" Piper ask
"Me and Prue were it was kind of hard not to, thin walls you know." Phoebe says
"I'm surprised I didn't know you had such a wild side to you." Cole says
Piper just sat there totally embarrassed. Sex with Chris was addictive she couldn't get enough of him. He was so gentle and caring yet rough and manly when she wanted him to be, he made her feel like a real woman.
"Yeah he was fantastic but don't tell Leo." Piper says
"Don't worry we won't. Let see what was it he used to call you?" Phoebe ask
"My Sexual Goddess". a voice says from behind them They turn to see who it is and find Chris standing there smiling at them. He was wearing black pants, dark brown shoes and a nice dark blue shirt.
"God he looks hot." all the girls think to themselves
"My, my aren't we being the naughty one tonight, maybe you need to be punished." he says with a seductive smile
Piper starts to blush bright red. "How long have you been standing there?" Piper ask
"Long enough to know what a stud a I still am. You ladies look absolutely beautiful tonight." he says
"Thank you." the girls say in unison
"Hey Cole how's it going?" Chris ask
Cole stands up and shakes his hand. "Good my friend, very good." Cole says then they both sit down.
"Did you have trouble finding the place?" Phoebe ask
"Nope I've been here before, I come at least once a week." he says
"Really? We never saw you." Phoebe says
"Well I'm not surprised, with a club full of people its hard to notice someone you don't expect to see. It was the only way I could see you girls up close and personal." he says
"You big sneak." Phoebe says smiling
"This is a really great place Piper, though I honestly never would have thought of you as owning a nightclub. You always talked about owning your own restaurant, no wait your own chain of restaurants worldwide. You were always the big thinker." he says
She laughs "Yeah I still do later on, but right now I love being a club owner." she says smiling at him
"Well I need a beer." he says looking around and waves a waitress to come over.
"Hi everyone. " the waitress says
"Hey Sandra." Paige says
"What can I get for you handsome?" Sandra ask
"A Heineken please." he says
"Ok I'll be right back. " she says and turns to leave.
"Oh wait Sandra his drinks are on the house." Piper says
"Alright." she says and leaves
"Does this mean all my drinks are free?" he ask
"Of course. " she says
"Sweet. Paige you look like you've got something on your mind." he says
"Nothing important I swear." she says
"Alright just remember what we talked about earlier." he says
"I do and I won't." she says smiling
"What are you two talking about?" Phoebe ask
"It's a secret." Paige says winking at Chris and he smiles back at her.
"'That's not fair." Phoebe says pouting
They all just laugh at her
"So where's Leo, I thought he'd be here?" Chris ask
"He went to the restroom but that was about 15 minutes ago. " Phoebe says
"I should have just orbed home, you think I would know better." Leo thinks to himself. As he's walking back he stops and sees Chris sitting with everyone else, laughing and having a good time. "Just great." he says with such distain in his voice "Take it easy Leo, you can do this. No need to feel threatened by him at least not for now. Piper would never leave you for him, he seems like a nice guy but evil has many faces." he says He takes a deep breath and walks over.
"Well speak of the devil here he is." Phoebe says
"Who me?" Cole ask
"Not you silly." Phoebe says
Leo makes his way over to Piper, sits down and puts his arm around her.
"Hey everyone, sorry long line." he says
"We thought you fell in and were about to send a search party after you." Paige says giggling
"Hi Chris, good to see you again." Leo says then pulls Piper closer to him giving Chris a smirk. Chris raises his left eyebrow at the gesture.
"So did you guys find out anything?" Chris ask
"There wasn't anything in the book that we didn't know, just that its genetic and powers differ from each person." Piper says
"While in the Underworld we found out that there was a decree never to discuss or give out any info on you. Which means that there's a lot more going on that we don't know and the ones who do know aren't talking. Hell 3 demons even killed themselves because they were afraid of what the Source would do to them". Cole says
"So nothing at all then?" Chris ask
"Not necessarily, we did manage to get some information but now isn't the best time so we'll talk about it later." Phoebe says
"Ok?" Chris says wondering what it could be but by tone in her voice it wasn't good.
"It was pretty much the same with the Elders they didn't know much either, sorry." Leo says
"That's ok thanks guys, I really appreciate all of this." Chris says
"You're welcome and don't worry we'll find out the whole story eventually, it will just take some time." Piper says
"Time is the one thing I have plenty of." he says
Piper stands up and raises here drink in the air. "To Chris thank the gods for bringing him back to us." she says
They all stand and raise their drinks. "To Chris!" Then take a drink. They talk and drink some more. Chris was getting antsy, he was always full of energy so siting in one place for to long was killing him.
He stands up. "That's enough talking for now, I thought we were celebrating lets dance." he says He walks over to Paige and puts his hand out in front of her. "Come on let me see whatcha got." he says smiling.
