Balthazar shimmered into the living room looking around for Paige. He then heard a loud 'Boom' come from the attic. Balthazar shimmered to the attic.

In the Attic

Paige was making a potion that she thought might prevent Leo from coming towards Piper. When she heard the potion explode she figured it was done.

Paige looked up when she heard someone enter the attic. She saw Balthazar standing in front of her. Balthazar formed an energy ball and threw it at Paige. "Energy ball!" Paige shouted. The energy ball orbed into her hand before dissolving.

Paige called for the athame but was surprised when it didn't come. "Whitelighter powers don't work on me, you stupid witch." Balthazar said.

Paige panicked. She knew she needed her sisters since her powers didn't work on him. Balthazar was advancing on her.

In Town

Phoebe and Piper came out of the salon laughing. "He really said that to you?" Piper asked laughing.

"Yes he did." Phoebe told her laughing. Phoebe was talking about Jason. Piper and Phoebe got into the car to go eat lunch. Phoebe saw that Paige left her cell phone in the car. Phoebe picked it up and was instantly thrown into a premonition.

Premonition

Paige was in the attic fighting a demon. Suddenly Paige was stabbed and the demon shimmered away leaving Paige on the floor bleeding and dying.

End of Premonition

"Phoebe what did you see?" Piper asked concerned. "Paige was being attacked by a demon and then dying." Phoebe replied.

Piper turned the car around and drove home to the manor as fast as she could.

Piper and Phoebe burst through the front door and Phoebe started yelling Paige's name.

Piper heard a sound like something big fall in the attic. "I think she's in the attic." They ran up the stairs and saw Balthazar standing over Paige's body.

"Oh my god! Cole?" Phoebe exclaimed. "Piper, blow him up!" Phoebe yelled to her big sister.

Piper stood there frozen in the spot she was standing in. Phoebe levitated and kicked him, knocking the athame out of his hands. Piper ran over and picked up the athame.

Piper heard Phoebe telling her to stab him. Piper stabbed him in his side and saw a piece of his flesh come off where she cut him. Balthazar cried out in pain and fell to the ground. He morphed back into Cole. Cole put his hand on his wound.

"Piper..."Cole whispered.

"Get out before I kill you." Piper said angrily. Cole lied to her about being evil. She thought she could trust him. Cole was about to say something else but saw the pissed off look on Piper's face and shimmered away.

Phoebe was busy helping Paige. "Leo!" Phoebe called for their whitelighter. "Leo, please...Paige is hurt!" Phoebe pleaded to the ceiling. The sisters saw blue and white orbs form into Leo. Leo ran over to Paige's body. He put his hands over her wound and a glow emanated from his hands and Paige's wound healed.

"Paige! Are you ok?" Piper and Phoebe asked at the same time. Paige nodded her head as her sister's both hugged her.

"What was that demon?" Paige asked after her sisters let go of her.

"That demon was Balthazar, Cole's demonic form." Phoebe explained bitterly. 'How dare he come back now and try and ruin my life!' She thought angrily.

"What? Balthazar is back?" Leo asked concerned about the sisters.

"Yeah Leo. He is. You didn't know? What? Were you too busy getting your ass drunk to find out?" Piper yelled bitterly at him.

"I am sorry Piper. You have to believe me. I would never hurt you." Leo pleaded with her. He didn't want to lose Piper.

"I don't have to believe anything you say." Piper said turning to her sisters. "What are we going to do about Cole?" Piper asked meekly. She didn't want to vanquish him...no matter how pissed she was at him or didn't trust him.

"What do you mean? We are going to vanquish him his sorry ass for once and all since he is Balthazar now." Paige said. Phoebe picked up the Balthazar flesh. "Piper gotta chuck." Phoebe said half-disgusted. Paige laughed.

"Let's go make that potion." Phoebe said walking down to the kitchen with Paige.

Piper stood in the attic looking at Leo. "Leo we need to talk later."

"I know. I have to go now though. They're calling me." Leo said. Piper nodded and Leo leaned over to her and kissed he cheek. "Bye Piper." Leo orbed away.

Piper walked over to the book and opened it up to the page where Balthazar was on. She looked on the other side and saw where Phoebe wrote about Cole. Piper brushed her fingers over Cole's picture. "Why did you have to be evil? Why did you have to attack us?" Piper asked out loud to his picture.

Piper then closed the book and walked downstairs to find her sisters finishing making the potion. "How are we going to find him?" Paige asked.

"Well we'll have to scry for him. But we don't have anything that is his." Piper said.

Phoebe ran up to her room and grabbed something that belonged to Cole's. She saw the confused look on her sister's face. "What? I kept it and I never thought of throwing it away." Phoebe explained.

Piper got the map and started scrying for Cole. It landed on the penthouse. "Did you get anything?" Paige asked when she saw Piper staring at the map. "No...I didn't." Piper lied.

Paige took over scrying for Piper and again it landed on the penthouse. "He's at the penthouse." Paige announced.

Phoebe put the potion in vials and gave one to Piper and Paige and took one for her.

"Let's go then." Phoebe said. Paige orbed them to the penthouse. Piper noticed the blood that was on the floor that was leading back to the bedroom. Piper walked back there and saw Cole lying on the bed with a cloth over his wound.

"Cole...Are you ok?" Piper asked trying to make sure Paige and Phoebe didn't hear her.

Cole turned his head and saw Piper kneeling on the side of the bed beside him. "What are you doing here?" Cole demanded. Cole was sweating and his breathing was coming in short breathes. Cole saw the potion vial in Piper's hand. "Are you going to vanquish me?" Cole asked prepared for this moment.

Piper was about to answer when her sisters came bursting through the bedroom door. "You evil bastard!" Phoebe screamed throwing her potion vial at him. Paige threw hers at him. Both Phoebe and Paige waited for Piper to throw hers. "Come On, Piper. Throw the potion."

Piper was holding Cole's hand. "I'm sorry Cole. I have to." Piper said crying. Piper threw the potion at him with her eyes closed so she wouldn't have to see Cole being vanquished. Piper opened her eyes and looked at where Cole was laying earlier. She turned to her sisters who were wondering why she was so emotional.

"Piper...what's wrong?" Paige asked.

"It's nothing. Really. I don't why I'm crying." Piper lied. She didn't want to vanquish Cole but knew she had to. After all, Cole DID almost kill Paige.

Her sisters seemed to buy the excuse and Paige orbed them back home. Before she did, Piper took one last look around the penthouse.
