A/N: The 50th Chapter people!!! I can't tell you how much I love writing this fic. It's been hard work and a lot of writer's block but I made it and it's not over cause I still have at least another part planned then maybe we can nail the coffin shut, lol. I hope you enjoy this chapter. I tried to make it really long and such but I'm working on other stories including a Phoebe/Cole fic that Micheline provided the storyline too. She's a lifesaver...so let me stop rambling and you start reading
Forbidden 50

"Elizabeth gets a little child crazed when she's pregnant" said Benjamin.

"Stop making excuses for her" said Piper as she held the crystal over the map. "I can't sense Cole you can't sense Elizabeth the summoning spells don't work"

Andy was reading Ben a story in the sunroom. It was almost dark and everyone was tired.

"She's pregnant with my child right?" asked Leo.

"Yeah" said Phoebe. "Think you could sense her?"

"She probably put a shield over herself" said Ben.

"Leo you have to try" said Piper putting down the crystal. "It's not working"

They heard a groan. Piper grabbed her athame and walked over to their captive. Raynor smirked at them. Raynor was tied to a chair near the stairs.

"Don't even try shimmering" said Piper. "The power stripping potion didn't work on you but we did bind your powers"

"Smart girls indeed" said Raynor. "But have you know that the Brotherhood will be looking for Balthazar and me"

"Oh don't worry we handled all of that" said Paige coldly. "This manor is temporarily magically shielded"

"We have powers that could break through that" said Raynor.

"And what makes you think they want you back?" asked Piper. She paced in front of him. "Their ruthless leader is gone and now someone else may want the job"

"Cause they know I'm not dead" he said. "When I get out of here and I mean when they would have to pay"

Leo ran back in.

"I found them" said Leo.

"Go bring my husband back" said Piper.

"Wait a minute" said Benjamin. "I'll go with you Leo"

"Should I too?" asked Phoebe.

"No you stay here" said Piper. "We're going to vanquish Raynor soon enough but we need Cole back"

"That's right" said Prue.

Store in Venice

"I got you so many things" said Elizabeth walking to Cole who was playing with some sort of noisemaker. About 10 bags surrounded the bed. "I guess I should get you a crib"

She bit her bottom lip. After awhile Cole started crying. Elizabeth was immediately at his side.

"What is it baby?" asked Elizabeth.

He buried his head in her chest.

"Are you hungry?" asked Elizabeth. "Uh good thing I got you a couple bottles, baby food, and juice"

She carried him to the kitchen when she sensed Ben and Leo orbed in.

"Oh the daddies are here" she muttered.

She opened the fridge as Cole looked over his shoulder.

"What do you want?" asked Elizabeth while getting a bottle of juice and a package of baby cookies. She shut the fridge and walked to her rocking chair. Cole was reaching for the cookies. "Not yet sweetie"

She sat down.

"Beth you have to turn Cole back you're the only one who can" said Benjamin.

"As you can see I'm his mother I'm trying to make things right" said Elizabeth. "Cole is safer like this and he even knows that"

"But you're keeping him trapped" said Leo.

"He's happy we've been shopping for almost two hours and oh my gosh you should see this cute little jumper I bought for him" said Elizabeth giving Cole a cookie.

Benjamin sighed. "I know Beth that you're trying to do the right thing and that you feel guilty for Cole's lack of a childhood but you can't expect to keep him like that forever"

"We're having a child" said Leo.

Elizabeth rolled her eyes.

"You can do better with your upcoming child" said Benjamin. He would never say how much it hurt him that the love of his life and after life was having a child with his son's murderer. He shook his head. The past was in the past. Leo's not a murderer and Beth is no longer with him.

"Maybe I don't want another child to replace Cole" said Elizabeth coldly. Cole took the juice from his mother's hand.

This felt so nice just being close to her and being protected. He could at times feel Balthazar trying to overtake him but in this age Balthazar was as strong as a beetle. He actually felt as if he didn't want to turn back so he snuggled deep into his mother and just went to sleep. If this was peace then he was going to take advantage of it.

Elizabeth kissed the top of Cole's head.

"The girls have Raynor alive and in the manor" said Leo. "They want Cole to vanquish Raynor you have to give him back now"

"One night please just one night" said Elizabeth. "I want to sing to him, and tell him stories, and all that"

"Beth you don't have to leave Cole like that to do all of that" said Benjamin.

Benjamin couldn't stand the sad look on Elizabeth's face and Cole dozing off on her. They looked like the perfect match.

"Alright till 3 tomorrow afternoon San Francisco time" said Benjamin.

"Thank you" said Elizabeth.

"But Beth do it please for Cole" said Benjamin. "We want to free our son and vanquish Raynor"

Elizabeth nodded.

Manor-1 am

Paige had just finished orbing Raynor in the basement.

"Dude has an eye problem" said Paige. "I seriously just did a sleeping spell on him"

Piper laughed and took a sip of her tea. Prue walked down fresh from a shower and in her pajamas.

She took a banana to eat.

"I can't wait till 3 I mean what is Ben thinking?" asked Piper.

"Well Piper you should relate to Elizabeth more" said Paige shrugging. "Just think this is maybe what Cole needs and this is weakening Balthazar"

"Yeah you have to let Elizabeth and Cole come at peace" said Prue.

"Alright alright" said Piper biting off a twizler. "I get it"

Phoebe walked in the kitchen slowly. The mood went down another couple notches.

"So you put the last of your boxes down?" asked Prue.

Phoebe nodded. "I'm leaving tomorrow morning"

"I can't believe this" said Piper. "You're not even going to stay for the spell"

"Piper it's a 15 hour flight" said Phoebe. "I want to be there by night. You three can do it and then have Cole call me"

Paige wiped her tears. "Phoebe I'm sorry we couldn't have your party"

"That's not important" murmured Phoebe.

"You're leaving in 6 hours?"

"Shouldn't you get some rest?" asked Prue.

"Well I thought I'd spend time with my sisters before leaving" said Phoebe taking a stool next to Piper.

Piper put an arm around her shoulder. "I love you Pheebs"

Phoebe put her head on Piper's shoulder.

"We all love you Phoebe"

"I love you guys too" said Phoebe.

She took a twizzler from the package.

"Well I know we have a demon in the basement and in a crisis situation but I think we can fit in a movie" said Prue.

"I have the perfect one" said Phoebe.

Hotel in Venice

Elizabeth finished reading a fairy tale book to Cole. He was lying on the pillow in his blue silk pajamas. He was staring at his mother while she read and ran her fingers through his curly hair.

"So they lived happily ever after" finished Elizabeth. She shut the book and looked at Cole. She put her finger in his hand. "I don't want to let you go"

Cole sat up and crawled to Elizabeth and planted a wet kiss on her cheek. Elizabeth took him in her arms and smiled while tears pulled down her face.

"I won't be selfish you have to be there for your son now" said Elizabeth softly. She pulled Cole up and looked in his eyes. "I always loved you no matter what Raynor told you I just wasn't and couldn't be a good mother to you and that is no excuse. If I could take away all the torture that you put up with I would and I would take it myself. I want to be there for you Cole I want you to know that I am. I always will love you no matter what"

She kissed Cole's tears and took him in her arms as he wrapped his arms around her neck. Elizabeth hummed a familiar tune only to them and didn't fall asleep until he was safely asleep in her arms.

6 am

"Jason's here" said Phoebe.

"You sure?" asked Prue.

"Yeah orb me over here tonight when you guys celebrate" said Phoebe. "Give him my love"

Piper and Paige hugged her.

"We're going to go check on Raynor" said Piper.

"Have a safe flight" said Paige walking away with Piper.

Prue turned back to her sister.

"You wanna tell me the real reason you're running"

"I'm not running" said Phoebe. "This job is paying big if I go and the power of three is in tact"

"You're scared I know" said Prue.

"Yeah Prue maybe" said Phoebe. "I love Cole still okay, I do and if you guys have to vanquish him I can't be here for that and I can't see him lose another battle so sue me"

Prue opened her mouth. "Oh Phoebe I'm sorry"

"It's alright" said Phoebe. "I need to get over him but I don't really want to be here. It might sound selfish but it's what it is"

Prue hugged her. "Have a safe one"

"Thanks" said Phoebe. She picked up her last box and walked out of the manor to her new life.

Prue sighed as Jason drove away with Phoebe. She shut the door.

Basement

Piper was sitting on the steps while Paige went upstairs to make the vanquishing potion.

"How did you come back?" asked Piper eyeing him.

Raynor smirked at The Charmed One. He sensed great power from this witch.

"Not going to answer me?"

"Why should I?" asked Raynor. "The how I don't know but the who I do"

"Then who brought you back"

Piper was having some fears that Leo might have been the one to bring Raynor back to take Cole but she quickly shook that thought out. Leo was good now. She had to give him a second chance like she did Cole.

"I'll tell you if you let me go" said Raynor.

"Umm you'll tell me and then we'll see if I let you go" said Piper holding an athame in her hand and waving it.

"Torture methods huh?"

"No Raynor vanquish methods" said Piper. "Paige is upstairs as we speak making the potions"

"You think when Cole is turned back into an adult that Balthazar won't overtake him again?" asked Raynor. "That Elizabeth will make everything better? Thing is I killed Cole long ago and he'll always look at you as someone wanting to hurt him"

Piper conjured an energy ball and shot it at Raynor. He flipped back and fell to the floor. He got out of the ropes.

"Uh oh" said Piper.

Raynor tried to conjure an energy ball but it didn't work.

"You really think we didn't bind your powers" said Piper.

He charge at her and Piper shimmered out the way and behind him. He kicked her and Piper fell to the floor then Raynor picked up the knife and Piper froze him.

"Prue!" called Piper as she got up.

The basement door opened and Prue came down.

"Oh!" cried Prue as she tk'd Raynor against the wall. He crumpled to the ground. "You okay?"

"Yeah" said Piper.

"Andy! Leo!"

They shimmered in with Ben in Leo's arms.

"We need Cole now we need to finish this" said Piper.

"I'll get Benjamin" said Andy looking at Raynor. "I don't even want to ask what happened"

"Well help us to tie him back up" said Prue.

Hotel in Venice

Elizabeth watched Cole as he slept cuddled to the blanket. She placed a kiss on his cheek and sighed when Benjamin orbed in.

"They need him now, right?"

Benjamin nodded.

"Come here first and look at him" said Elizabeth.

Benjamin climbed on the bed on Cole's other side. He smiled at how cute his son looked. Just like old times where him and Elizabeth would lay in the bed with their son, just watching and holding eachother. He looked at Elizabeth who was still looking at Cole.

"It's time" whispered Benjamin.

Elizabeth nodded and got off the bed.

"I bought all this stuff actually thinking I was going to keep him" said Elizabeth. She walked to the fridge and pulled out a bottle. "Part of me wants to just take him now from all of you but that's selfish cause he's a father and a husband and he needs to be with them"

"You're good Elizabeth, you really are and you will be a good mother" said Benjamin. He stood up and kissed her forehead. She smiled slightly and walked to Cole.

"Sweetie it's time to wake up" said Elizabeth picking him up.

Cole made some fussy noises and then opened his tired eyes. Elizabeth held up the bottle of juice. Cole took it and drank some while cuddling up to his mother.

"This will work right?" asked Elizabeth fearfully.

"Yes it will by tonight Cole will be free" said Benjamin.

Manor

Piper, Paige, and Prue were moving the couches back and Paige orbed the clock in the basement.

"Man I hope this works" said Prue.

"Here, here" said Piper.

They heard the front door close and looked at eachother confusedly until she walked in and they smiled.

"I knew you wouldn't let me down" said Piper. She hugged her.

"I had to be here" said Phoebe.

"What happened?" asked Paige.

"Jason and I were halfway to the airport when I told him that I had unresolved stuff with you guys so we're leaving tonight at 9" said Phoebe.

Prue and Paige hugged her.

"So where's Cole?" asked Phoebe.

"Right here" said Elizabeth shimmering in with Benjamin and Cole.

Cole was asleep due to the potion Elizabeth put in his bottle. She walked to the middle of the living room all Piper wanted to do was hug Cole but there would be plenty of time to do that. Elizabeth placed him carefully on the ground and stepped back.

"Everyone ready?" asked Elizabeth.

"We've been ready" said Phoebe.

"Ok" said Elizabeth thinking.

"Well..." said Prue.

"Well I didn't exactly have a reversal spell" said Elizabeth.

All four sisters rolled their eyes. The sisters got to thinking.

"We need Cole back to vanquish his evil half" started Paige.

Prue looked up. "To stop Raynor's plan"

"We ask the powers" continued Phoebe.

"To turn Cole back into a man" finished Piper.
