Chapter 6 - Love conquers all Part 1

Phoebe felt herself being pulled back from her dream world to reality slowly; she rolled over and pulled her torn shirt around her. Hoping to feel some kind of comfort, she moaned slightly as her body refused to let her sleep again, and she rubbed her eyes and sat up. Her eyes wearily scanned her surroundings and she immediately noticed she wasn't in the same place she fell asleep. She panicked, as she knew nothing of how she had come to be here, and stood up to take a look around. Where she had been asleep just minutes ago, appeared to be nothing but a swirling mass of colours that barely looked solid. She slowly paced around this strange world; she was taking in the bright colours and the strange transparent walls the appeared to be as a gateway to a similar room. Although each one felt slightly different from the next, from some she could feel pain, others happiness. She wondered if she had died at one point and as was in some kind strange dimension due to her death, but that idea was wiped from her mind when she heard his demonic voice behind her.

"I was beginning to think you would never wake up." He said with a sigh.

"Did you bring me here?" She asked without turning to face him.

"No the tooth fairy did!" he replied sarcastically.

"Where am I?" she asked.

"Your in another world, where all dimensions blur together, you can see each realm ever created, and the creatures within. Until sometimes you start to see what you desire from this world. And very occasionally the things you don't, sometimes your past or your future but that's if you're lucky."

"Why did you bring me here anyway? Shouldn't you have taken me back to Salden?" She replied.

"I will…but first I want to hear you scream, where no one else can find us and you can't run away." He replied a bitter smile forming on his lips.

Phoebe shivered at the thought and closed her eyes, thinking of all the things she had experienced in her life this had to be the worst.

"But first, I have to go prepare." He said, as he wondered away in to the mist. "I will be back in some time…enjoy your stay while you can." He added.

"We don't know what powers she has yet but at least the witch didn't have time to bind them…it is a good thing we acted when we did." The source said to a minion. "But I will get a team to train her separately when we find out what they are."

"Educate her in the way of evil" The minion said, as he looked at the source.

"Yes…and then it will be the only way she will know how to use her powers for…she is young and vulnerable and she won't be able to see the good if we act fast enough."

"How long do you think it will be Sire?" He asked eagerly.

"I am not sure…but I don't think it will be long until her powers start to show some kind of signs."

The source didn't yet know of Phoebe's escape, and well the minion was going to keep it that way…he still had hope they would catch her, and bring her back before she got to her sisters.

"Something you're not telling me?" The Source asked all of a sudden throwing the minion of guard.

"Nothing…" he lied. The source decided the let the young minion go and continue thinking about his plans for the future, how bright they were looking he thought, (Or maybe dark in some cases).

Cole, Piper, Paige, and Leo who hadn't returned with many answers, just that they have heard of this prophecy and it could be a possibility. Piper and Paige had spent hours looking over the book of shadows countless times and found no way to track Phoebe and Melinda so far, and Leo told them they were not to risk going to the underworld without the power of three as the source would be prepared for them. And however much they didn't want to admit it, they knew he was right. As they once again watch daylight return to night, they returned to their beds feeling useless a common feeling right now.

******

Phoebe had spent the day walking through these strange walls, and gazing at the world below, through these strange swirling portals, that she dared not go in for fear of something bad happening to her or the baby Maybe that's what he had planned for me to go through one of these and die. She had seen so many places she didn't think existed. As she paced along, she found the earth or home, as she liked to call it. She looked upon the world and gazed longingly at it. After a while she saw Piper and Paige's face appear, and she looked at them she could see them returning to their rooms, sad looks on their faces, soon followed by Leo.

******

Leo closed the door behind him and Piper, and watched as she sat on the bed and buried her face in her hands.

"Piper." Leo spoke softly as not to anger her.

"I miss them Leo." She replied as tears began to fall.

"I miss them too Piper."

"Then why won't you let us go to them?" she replied.

Leo knew she was talking about going to the underworld, but his bosses had strictly forbidden it, they said that it was to risky, and if the charmed ones or what was left of them, were to go there, there would be no grantee they would come back alive.

"I'm sorry Piper it is to dangerous I want to save Mindy and Phoebe as much as you do, but you have to believe that they are safe."

Leo sat on the bed beside her putting his arm around her shoulders and pulling her close.

"You have to believe they're strong Piper, they are Halliwells after all." He said with a slight chuckle at the strength of the Halliwell women.

"I know Leo its just I have a right to worry, If I had been with them when they'd left the club none of this would of happened."

"You don't know that Piper." He said whilst loving smoothing back a stray lock of hair that hung over her face.

"Maybe I don't but I can't help but feel the pain of letting them down." She replied softly.

"Piper it's not your fault, you know you would never put them in danger purposely."

"I know Leo, its just I can't go on like this my life feels so empty without my daughter, and the sister I grew up with." She said painfully.

"It's going to be okay." He said as he pulled Piper to him in a loving embrace.

"Their calling." He said minutes later breaking their warm embrace "I have to go."

He said as he pulled Piper in for a passionate kiss. "It will be okay you'll see," he whispered in her ear before he orbed out.

Piper fell back on the bed the worry that was bothering her a little more at ease, as a result of Leo's comfort. Then she heard the chime of Leo's return, that was quick she thought "and remember don't go down to the underworld Piper, not even with Paige and Cole, we know the source is active and its to risky."

"I know…I wasn't thinking such a thing." She lied with a small smile.

"Why don't I believe you Mrs. Wyatt." He laughed slightly as he orbed out again, this time for real.

******

Melinda sat alone in her cell thinking of how her mommy, daddy and her aunties and uncle who hadn't rescued her yet. She wondered if Aunty Phoebe was still trapped down here. She remembered hearing her tortured screams as they echoed through the underworld and it made her shiver. Just like she heard his cold voice echo towards her now, and his footsteps on the hard ground as he approached her, her anger grew, she hated this man and she knew it. Her mommy had always told her that hating people wasn't a good thing, but something about this man scared her, that much she knew. "I brought someone you can meet Melinda, he will train you for now, so we can discover those powers of yours." He said waving a horrible finger at her.

"No powers." She replied shaking her head.

"Yes but you will." He replied.

Salden emerged from a dark shadow and smiled evilly at Melinda, as the source introduced him. Salden was lucky to be alive right now since the source had learned of the witches escape. Knowing full well that if she made it back she would warn the others of the prophecy, and they would have the power of three on their side again and most likely risk attack. But Salden had promised to train Melinda and find out what her powers were, so the source had accepted, it also helped that he had learned that one of the demons had not returned yet and may be with the witch.

Melinda looked up at the tall man towering above her as the source left and she could immediately sense the evil revolving around this strange looking man. "So little one you wanna learn how to do some magic tricks?" Salden asked as he knelt down beside her.

"No." she said.

"Don't you like magic?"

"Your evil." She replied.

"Why would you think that?" he asked when she did not reply he said, "Can evil people do this?" As he waved his hand a shower of gold and silver dust fell over Melinda.

"Wow!" she said turning her head and looking at the sparkling dust fascinated. "Do it again." She said clapping her hands. Salden once again repeated the process of showering the small girl with sparkling dust and then said "So will you let me teach you how to use magic…the right way."

Her eyes lit up as he waved his hand and a packet of sweets appeared in her hand. "Yes." She replied. "That was cool, teach me!" She pleaded with big eyes, and that pout that no one in the Halliwell manor could resist.

******

As Piper lay alone on the bed she began thinking of ways she could try and save Melinda without the power of three, that weren't to risky. Her mind wandered through pages of the book of shadows trying to find the perfect spell or maybe one that she could manipulate to mean the right thing or a head start. Then she remembered, one of the many spells she had used to call Prue. When she had sadly passed away, it hadn't worked but it was worth a try…at least Melinda was still alive. She was sure her love would save her and that's all she would need for this spell, it couldn't save Prue because she was dead, but she was sure it would save Melinda, and of course she would get Paige to say the spell too for that added boost they needed. Piper smiled as she sat up and walked towards the door, breaking Leo's promise.

As Phoebe continued to look in to what was a few minutes ago a swirling portal, and now appeared to be some sort of mirror she saw Cole appear. Her heart skipped a beat as she look at him alone on their bed, a single tear lightly caressed her cheek as she watched him roll over restlessly, as he hugged her pillow tightly. She raised her hand to touch him forgetting about the worry of dieing just wanting to touch Cole. Her hand met some kind of strange force field, and at first it was reluctantly to go through but in the end it did. She then caressed his cheek lightly as if she was there.

As Cole turned restlessly once more on the bed, he felt something cold brush against his cheek. He raised his hand slightly, and felt a small wind brush against it.

Phoebe watched amazed out how Cole had felt her presence, and moved her hand away and raised it in the air, imagining she could actually touch him. Cole raised his hand to the presence he could feel once again, and looked around the room as if to see if someone was really there.

That's when Phoebe felt it his warm touch on her skin, as she slowly stepped through the force field wanting to feel closer to Cole. Her body weakened but she didn't care, she still wasn't on earth but she was there with Cole at least. Only on another plane she guessed. Her soul was calling and that's why she could feel his warm touch, and there was know way she was going to stay put now.

Cole knew it was her then, as her sweet smelling perfume had filled the air in the room. He looked for her half hoping she would walk through the door any minute. He began calling to her or at least his soul did, it searched for her and found her and she began to call back to him, she was able to speak to Cole "I miss you Cole." Her sweet voice filled the room like a gently caress to Cole, and he wished he could hold her in his arms.

"Phoebe…?" he whispered, as he sat up. He felt her presence pass right through him as if she was trying to hug him, hold on to him somehow. It was an amazing feeling for Cole as if his whole body was on fire with this tinkling sensation, it was almost as good as the feeling that came with making love to Phoebe.

"Where are you?" he asked.

"Please help me I'm trapped in another world, and he is going to hurt me."

"Who's going to hurt you?" he said scrunching his hands in to fists of anger.

"I don't know his name." Her light reply came "But you have to get me out of here."

"Where?" He called as he felt her presence drawing away slightly. "Phoebe please don't leave me." He felt his arms grabbing for her but she wasn't there and he knew it.

"I love you." She replied, before her presence slipped away, but the smell of her perfumed lingered in the room and Cole breathed it in, thinking of how he would save her now they had made contact. All was well for now…

*****

The source stood alone in the underworld mixing herbs and frog's legs for a potion, which he had decided to make due to the witch's disappearance. This would keep her from this minute on, from being tracked by her family for at least the next 24 hours if she was still in this world or dimension as some liked to say. Which he was pretty sure she was…or at least he hoped she was. Also this would protect Melinda from being sensed by the white-lighter of the family or any other members in here and on earth and would stop the white-lighter hearing his family calls for either. If they did come down here to save her, because the little witch makes it home with her unborn brat they won't find her, he thought, and the potion is affective on Melinda for as long as he knew where she was. As he added the finally ingredients the potion bubbled and popped and he began chanting in a dark language to begin the spell. When it was finally complete he laughed to himself and turned to go and see how Salden was doing with the child, a twisted smile on his cruel face.

A/N2: Well I know I said thing will be looking up and they are slightly so next time we may see the return of Phoebe so getting reviewing….
