"Mom! Demon!" yelled Tim. Phoebe ran towards Christina, who was lying on the ground. Cole started to stop her bleeding, but she wasn't waking up.
"Where are the twins?"
"Taken!" Tim was sobbing.
"Leo, can you heal her?"
"I can't heal the dead…the dead…the dead…"
"Oh my god." Phoebe muttered. "Cole, lets go!"
"What?" She didn't even bother to explain. She grabbed him by the hand and pulled him out the door. They ran down the sidewalk. The kids had gotten a five-minute start on them, but it wouldn't, it couldn't be to late.
What if it is? A little voice inside Phoebe's voice asked.
"Phoebe, what is it?" Cole asked again.
"All those years ago. My dream. Premonition. It's about to come true."
"You mean, the one before we got married?"
"Yeah."
"We can't risk that. Cole took Phoebe's hand and they shimmered them to the doorstep of Leo and Piper's house. The children had already arrived at the house.
"Look out!" yelled Phoebe. The big black cloud of smoke surrounded the Jersey, and she disappeared. She couldn't find Jordan anywhere. It then took a human form. Phoebe watched as her eldest tried to flick the knife from the hands of the demon.
"It's not use! I disabled your powers, oldest witch!" The demon laughed. Phoebe saw Time jump high and kick at the demon, but he turned into the smoke and Tim's kicks went right through him. The demon laughed and pushed Tim away. He fell to the ground and lay still. Cole ran over to Tim and tried to wake him up. Christina backed up from the demon slowly. The demon regained human form. A knife materialized in the demons' hand. He walked towards Christina slowly.
"Your mother saw me do this to you in a dream before you were born." He rasped at her, "But she's not here." He laughed.
"You're never going to get my powers!" cried Christina, "I won't let you!"
"That's not your choice, Witch. I need them. Now, I have a question" His body transformed into an ugly red and black demon wearing a black suit. "Do you recognize me?"
"Balthazor." Christina whispered. "But you're…you're….Dad?"
"Over here." Cole appeared next to his daughter. "You're me." He took Christina in his arms. "You're not getting my daughter. I'm not demonic anymore. Who do you think you are?"
"I'm you," said the black and red demon. "But now I am gone." He shimmered away.
"Cole?" A stunned Phoebe stuttered. "Who was that?"
"I don't know. But we saved Christina from your premonition or dream, or whatever it was. She was going to die."
"I was?" A stunned Christina looked at her parents. "I was going to die?"
"Before you were born, I had a premonition of this day. You died. Leo couldn't save you."
"Oh. But you prevented that?"
"Yes, I guess we did." Phoebe looked around, "But where are the twins? We saw them disappear."
"Jordan is over there." Christina pointed to a fern bush in front of the house. "I don't know where Jersey is."
"Jordan, you can come out now, it's safe." Called Cole.
Jordan turned back into a little boy, from the shape he had taken, which was part of the fern plant. He looked around. "Mommy? Where's Jersey?"
"I don't know," said Phoebe. "Jersey?"
"Jersey! Come home!" yelled Jordan, who was in tears.
"Jersey!" yelled Christina. "Jersey!"
"JERSEY! I NEED YOU! COME HOME!" yelled Jordan. The little boy started sobbing. "I need you!"
"Where are the twins?"
"Taken!" Tim was sobbing.
"Leo, can you heal her?"
"I can't heal the dead…the dead…the dead…"
