Phoebe collapsed to the floor... dead. "Balthazar!" Joel screamed as he reverted to his demonic half. "You will pay."
The other demons cleared out of the room in a hurry.
Joel fell to his knees beside Phoebe. "Mother I have failed you and all other evil! I will get revenge and will bring you back." He gazed at the dead Halliwell sister beside him. "Stupid fool. Why would he save them if he loved you so much!?"

"Phoebe!" Prue screamed as they entered the mansion. Piper held her tight and they both cried.
"How could you?" Piper asked through tears. "You bastard!" Piper buried her face into Prue's shoulder and wept some more.
But they weren't the only two crying. A tear rolled down Cole's cheek and fell to the floor. Cole couldn't believe what he had done. Had he really let Phoebe die? He knew of ways to bring her back of course but, one, he didn't have her body and two, there were consequences. Cole knew if he had let Piper and Prue die she would have hated him and he also knew she wanted him to save her sisters.
Leo orbed in with a look a disgust on his face. "Piper, Prue."
Piper looked as Leo with her tear stained face a red eyes. "She's..."
"I know." Leo joined in on the depression.
Not wanting to see anymore of what was his fault he shimmered away to the mausoleum.

**several weeks later**
Prue was up late sitting at the kitchen table with the book of shadows and papers spread out everywhere. She came to the page with Gresha on it.
"Powers..." She mumbled to herself. "Morphing, shimmering, energy balls, raising the dead."
'That's right! If she can raise me from the dead then she could raise Phoebe... If she's dead.' She thought. Closing the book Prue stood up and put the papers in a stack. She had a plan but knew she couldn't tell Piper.
"Hey Prue you still up? It's almost midnight." Piper commented as she walked into the kitchen.
Prue said nothing. She walked to the sink and grabbed a glass from the clean pile of dishes.
"I'm upset too. If it makes you feel any better I can't even sleep." Piper put her hand on her sisters shoulder but Prue shrugged it off. "Prue please don't do this. We can find a way to bring her back... together"
Prue filled her glass with water and chugged it down fast. She turned towards Piper and walked by her to her room.
"Prue!" Piper sat at the table and let out a cry. It was hard enough with one possibly dead sister now another sister that might as well have been dead because she wouldn't talk.

**One week later**
Prue woke up late that evening and headed straight to the mausoleum. "Cole?" She called out with a shaky voice.
Cole emerged from behind a pillar. He had a surprised look on his face. "What are you doing here?"
"I need you to shimmer me back to were we left Phoebe. We need to get her body that way I can do a spell and revive her." Prue looked at Cole with an ice cold glare in her eyes. Right now she hated him and he knew it.
"So... proud Prue came to me for help even though she hates me?"
"Don't Cole! I'm not in the mood! Do you have the faintest idea what I'm feeling right now?" Her voice broke away. She felt her face burn and her throat had a lump in it.
"I love Phoebe too. It's what she would have wanted."
"Do you think she is dead?" Prue asked.
"Yeah. I made sure to shimmer us away at the right time so that he wouldn't have time to prepare her for the ceremony like he prepared you already."
"Wow you thought is through thoroughly." Prue said in a hurt voice.
"No I didn't! I would never hurt Phoebe if I could help it! You and Piper never trust me."
"And we never will Cole. Now shimmer me to Phoebe!"
"Can't I just get her body and bring it back? It's too dangerous." Cole told her.
'Does Cole actually care about Piper and I?' Prue asked herself. "I need to be there Cole. I can't explain I just need to be. It's really important and it's for Phoebe."
Cole shook his head. "I'll get the body and bring it back."
"You're so stubborn!" Prue TKed Cole into the pillar smashing it and causing him to black out. "Strip your powers and send them to me." Prue threw down a small bag of potion. "This way I can save Phoebe."
A smoky figure rose from Cole and entered Prue. "Sorry Cole. But this way I can use your powers plus mine since I'm part demon." Prue pulled a paper out of her pocket and looked at it. "Got the spell, got the potion. Now I need to get Phoebe."
She quickly glanced at the watch she had taken from Piper it was nearing nine which meant she had 3 hours to carry out her plan. Tonight was another full moon.**
