"Wh-What?" Phoebe's face notably paled to a ghostly white, "N-No he's not". Not Cole, they had been through too much for it to end this way.
Leo's jaw shook as he tried to form words, "There was an ambush at the pub. We couldn't do anything. The Wendigo she-she ripped his heart out"
"No! No! No!" Phoebe fists pounded the floor as Paige sank to her knees taking the howling witch into her arms.
"Oh sweetie" Like Prue, Paige had never been a fan of the half demon, but the thought of strength of Phoebes love had made her believe that their love could conquer all.
"He can't be dead! He can't be!" Breaking away from Paige's grasp, Phoebe crawled over to Leo. "Y-ou, you have to take me to him. He-heal him!" her voice cracked.
From where she sat, Natalie looked at the desperate witch grim, "Leo isn't going to be healing anybody " she said keeping her hands, dead center over Leo's heart, as Phoebe wiped black mascara bled tears away from her face.
"W-why?" Piper asked.
"Because whatever attacked him, was laced with the poison from a dark lighter's arrow. I'm sorry Piper Leo is too far-gone. My magic isn't working fast enough Whomever did this must have left him for dead knowing that he only had a limited amount of time to be healed"
Defiantly, Piper's head shook, while her dark eyes filled with tears. "Leo, don't you dare leave me". Piper looked down at her husband looking at the pain on his face. "Don't you dare!"
"I'm sorry Piper"
"No-No, we healed you before, why did this time have to be different?"
"Because this time the Source knows what he's doing" Prue answered with disdain in her voice. Her arms wrapped around her daughter tightly, pulling her in close, Amanda had awaken from all of the commotion, and was leaning up against her mother's chest sucking her thumb.
Piper bit down hard on her lip, before glaring at Paige. "Take us to pub. I want to see what happen"
"And I have to see Cole" Phoebe choked. She refused to believe that Cole was gone until she saw the body.
"I'll get dressed " Prue added slipping free of Amanda.
"Oh no" Piper wagged a finger, "you aren't going anywhere, one loss in this family is more than enough"!
"Piper, I have to know what happened to Andy" Prue retorted reaching for her clothes. Several minutes later the four sisters stood in the demonic pub, taking in a horrible sight of death and destruction. Bodies of demonic patrons were strewn everywhere; their chests ripped open.
"Well this definitely has all the markings of a wendigo" Paige's lips pursed as she released Phoebe's hand.
"I don't see Cole" Scanning the room, Phoebe then began to shout. "COLE!"
"Are you looking for Belthazor?"
Paige's face crinkled looking bewildered, "who said that?"
"I did"
"Did that come from under the table?" Paige asked Piper as they both knelt peeking under one of the last standing tables. A tiny gremlin stood cowering their sight. The little chap was just three inches high. Dressed in a pair of striped coveralls the little man's wrench shook in his hand as he spoke.
"He is over there," the gremlin said, pointing to a cleared area, "the Sources men, said that his body should serve as a lesson to those who betray the Source of all evil".
"Cole?" A lump formed in Phoebe's throat. Cole's body had been placed on a covered table, with the words, "The Mighty Belthazor" adorning it.
"A wendigo took his heart," the gremlin told Paige.
"Which wendigo?"
"It was female," the gremlin informed noticing Paige's instant look of relief.
"Then it wasn't Andy" Piper touched Paige's shoulder directing her to stay with Phoebe while she went trotting after Prue. The two sisters waded their way through the destruction until they came to open door that led to an ally way.
"Oh no" Piper clamped a hand over mouth at the sight of the dead women. A bloodied athame was resting at her side "What did he do?"
Prue glanced at her sister dangerously before resting at Andy's side. "Andy?"
"Don't touch me" Andy flinched jumping away "just stay away. I'll kill you too"
Prue shook her head, "No, you won't. You couldn't"
Andy's hand fell into his hair, raking it back, "the wendigo made her look like you. She was going to kill you if I didn't...."
"It'll be okay," Prue promised, "I'll fix everything"
"How are you going to do that?" Piper questioned staring at her sister. "How are you going to do that Prue?" It then became quite clear what Prue intended to do. "No Prue you can't use the baby to turn back time. Ava said her powers are too weak"
"Would you prefer, I let Leo and Cole die instead?"
Tears fell from Piper's lashes as she gripped Prue's arm, "Phoebe and I will live with that sacrifice for you. Lord knows how many you've made for us"
"Maybe you can live with it, but I can't"
"You don't even know how to tap into her powers!" Piper argued, knowing at up until now the power had just been used spontaneous.
"I have an idea go get Phoebe and Paige"
Quickly Prue pulled Andy to his feet. "You have to trust me, we can fix this"
"wh-what are you going to do?" Phoebe's crestfallen face asked.
"I'm going to make things right"
"but how?" Paige asked confused, "you'll need more than just your astral projection to defeat the wendigo?"
"If I'm right, the baby uses my power of astral projection as a vessel to enter a time loop. Once the loop is open, Paige and Andy should be able to orb us through it to the other side"
"But you are sure the baby can handle the risk?" Paige asked fearful for her sister.
"She's a Halliwell isn't she?" Prue then grabbed a hold of Paige's hand and laced her free hand with Andy's.
"Everybody ready?" Paige asked when they were all linked. Closing her eyes Prue concentrated on astral projecting through time while Paige and Andy waited for the red flash to appear.
"Okay here goes nothing" Paige said. Orbs slowly mixed within the red flash traveling through the time loop until they all felt the warping pull of time being reversed.
The demonic attack was already underway when they materialized at pub with Cole valiantly battling the blonde wendigo. The talons on her right hand swung across, slashing Cole against the cheek.
Cole screamed in pain transforming himself into Belthazor.
"Cole!" Phoebe shouted, levitating herself into a spin kick.
Piper scanned the room until her eyes fell upon Leo. The Sources to henchman had him pinned along with a wendigo who was slashing at him with her razor sharp claws. "I take it there must be some dark lighter in there somewhere underneath all that fur!" Flicking her wrists, Piper caused a fireball explosion, which rocked the entire house. The wendigo went up in smoke with Piper watching pleased, "next?" Flickering her wrists, she took out the Source's green suited demons one at a time.
"Are you okay?" she asked Leo as he collapsed on her for support.
"What-what are you doing here?"
"Saving your ass" quickly she kissed him, and ordered him away, "just go find Natalie and have her heal you quickly. Trusting her judgment, Leo orbed away, leaving Piper to fight against the wendigo alongside with Phoebe and Belthazor.
"Okay where are you?" Prue asked Andy holding tight to his hand.
"Fighting my own demon of temptation"
"In the ally?" Prue feared they were too late as they threw the back door open to see Andy hand's clutched around the shape shifter's neck. Forcibly, he lifted her from the ground, and crushed his mouths to hers before tossing her into the side of the dumpster.
"No" Prue breathed glancing at future Andy. "Quick use your crossbow"
Storm clouds formed on Andy's brow, "you want me to use my crossbow on myself? Don't you think that's a little risky?"
"Right" Prue replied just as the past Andy began to brandish an athame. Squinting Prue pulled the athame from his hands, tossing under the dumpster. The Andy standing next to dumpster turned, his eyes flashing wendigo yellow.
"Ill kill you witch!" The crossbow appeared in his hands, firing.
"Prue!" Doing the only thing he could, Andy stepped in front of Prue blocking the arrow's path just as Paige entered the ally, with her brown eyes growing wide.
"Force Field!" she shouted causing a glowing blue light to encircle the three of them, deflecting the arrow. The force field disappeared with Prue and Andy still clinging to each other.
"Are you guys okay?" Paige asked, noting a pinched strain to Andy's expression.
"Not quite" Andy swallowed feeling a burning sensation travel through his back.
"Oh!...Oh!...No!" Prue breathed looking over his shoulder to see the women at the dumpster clutching a bloodied athame in her hands. The Andy from the past was laying face down on the concrete from where she had stabbed him.
Prue touched the center of Andy's back, and drew her hand away colored in crimson.
