Paige couldn't sleep that night, she didn't feel right and she spent the night looking at the book, but she didn't find anything, so she decides to go to Magic School, carefully she orbs out.
Paige goes to dark books room, she knows that's the only place to find something.
While she's looking the shelves a book falls down, it seems like someone is helping her.
Paige reads the book title, karma, and thinks that maybe that's useful and sits to read it.
At the following day the family wakes up to have breakfast, they realize Paige is not in the house.
Phoebe: She didn't spend the night here?
Piper: That's weird, last night she didn't seem at a very good mood.
Phoebe: I'm sure some guy called her and she felt better.
Leo: Don't say that Phoebe, Paige was very affected.
Phoebe: But why? She didn't really like Cole.
Leo: That's why, she didn't like him because she thought he was evil, now she must feel very bad.
Piper: We should talk to her.
In that moment Paige orbs in the kitchen hiding the book carefully.
Phoebe: Where have you been?
Paige: On a date.
Phoebe to Leo: See?
Leo ignores Phoebe's comment, he knows Paige is lying.
Piper: Well, do you wanna have something? I have prepared breakfast.
Paige: No, I'm very tired, I'm gonna lay down for a while.
Paige goes to her room, and Phoebe and Piper are stranged by her attitude.
Piper: She's acting very weird.
Phoebe: Yeah, well I have to work, tell me later.
Piper: Ok, bye.
Piper goes to Paige's room to see if she's ok.
Piper: Paige, can I come in?
Paige: Yes, wait a second.
Paige hids the book under the pillow.
Piper: It's nothing I just wanted to know if you feel better.
Paige: Yeah, don't worry.
Piper: The word worry is in my blood.
Paige: Really, I'm ok.
Piper: Yeah right, what happens?
Paige: I have been in the Magic School, looking for something to help Cole.
Piper: Did you?
Paige shows the book to Piper.
Piper: Karma, ok already the title is scary.
Paige: Read the selected passage.
Piper: To bring someone back to life that we have caused harm until the point of death, the person who most harmed caused shall sacrifice the most precious thing it possesses.
Paige: And as much harm I caused…
Piper: It's Phoebe.
Paige: Yes and the most precious thing she possesses or is going to posses is…
Piper: Her daughter.
Paige: I don't know what to do.
Piper: I do, burn the book, Phoebe can't read this.
Paige: Yes, but what if is what we're meant to do?
Piper: I don't care, I won't do that to Phoebe, as much pain I feel for Cole, as much she might still love him, this is just too much. Don't tell her.
Paige: Ok, just let me the book to see if I find something else, I had a reason to find this book.
Paige stays reading the book while Piper takes care of the kids, trying hard not to think about the issue.
Phoebe is at The Bay Mirror offices working and starts feeling very strong feelings, it's her empathy power, they tell her that her sisters are worried about something, but it's very strange she never felt them like that, specially being separated.
Phoebe: Elise, I have to go, I don't feel good.
Elise: Ok, but tomorrow I want you here, not I must stay in bed, or family issues.
Phoebe goes running to the Manor and when she enters she sees Piper watching tv.
Phoebe: Are you ok?
Piper: Yes, I'm watching Passions, why?
Phoebe: You're hiding something. Paige!
Paige goes running down the stairs scared.
Paige: What's going on?
Phoebe: That's what I should be asking, what's up with you two? What are you hiding from me?
Paige: Nothing, really.
Phoebe: Don't come to me with that, you don't know how to lie and my radar is 100x100, and it's telling me that you are worried about something.
Piper: Ok but you better sit down.
Phoebe sits and Paige shows her the book, when Phoebe reads it she puts it in the table and look at her sisters.
Phoebe: I don't know if I can.
Piper: I don't have to.
Paige: Just think about it, not even Cole would want you to do it.
Phoebe: I know, but this book, you didn't look for it, someone made you find it, that means we're meant to do it.
Piper: But it's too much Phoebe, and it was our fault too, why do you have to pay?
Phoebe: Because he trusted me.
Paige: Phoebe, don't do it, I'll feel guilty.
Phoebe: Don't whatever I decide, it's that my own decision, now let me alone, I have to concentrate.
Phoebe in the attic looks at the book of shadows and opens a page about destiny.
Phoebe: Destiny is magic but we can make our destiny, we're the ones prepared to fulfill our dreams, not even magic can change our desires.
Phoebe: And what is this for?
In that moment Phoebe hears a familiar voice, a voice she misses, Prue, she whisper in Phoebe's ear what to do.
Phoebe: Prue.
Prue's voice: Phoebe listen, you won't miss your future, if you change your destiny that doens't mean that you won't be happy if you miss that little girl and you win Cole back you still can have the family you wish.
Phoebe: But it's too hard, I just want to know if this is pain is worth.
Prue's' voice: I have the way to show you, but I have to warn you it's painful, are you willing to get inside Cole's emotions?
Phoebe wonders for a moment she knows is not going to be nice.
Phoebe: Yes I am.
Phoebe starts feeling Cole, present Cole, past Cole. Phoebe feels how Cole has lost hope in himself, how he is resigned to be wandering through the void, willing to feel guilty when he shouldn't. Phoebe then feels the past Cole, first the demon that didn't know what love was, the one that lost his father, the only person that showed him love when he was a kid, how he ended up as demonic Belthazor under his mother influence, how he discovered life and love when he met her, how his human half woke up, as his desire to be good to happiness woke up too, but when Phoebe left him, he felt like dying, Phoebe was his life, he didn't know anything else, without her he felt alone, not able to fight and when Phoebe showed him hate he died in part, and his only hope was to die, and if to die he had to be evil again, he World.
Phoebe wakes up from the vision.
Phoebe: Oh my God.
Prue's voice: Now you know the truth, you can give him another chance, it's up to you, but I want you to know I'll always take care of you.
Phoebe: Thank you.
Phoebe goes to the living where she meets her sisters.
Phoebe: I'm going to do it.
Paige: Phoebe don't.
Phoebe: I made my choice.
Piper: Are you sure?
Phoebe: Yes, I had a little help to decide what to do.
Piper: From who?
Phoebe: Prue.
Paige: You've seen her?
Phoebe: No, but I heard her voice, it was very magical.
Piper hugs Phoebe, they are very moved.
Paige: We should start with the ritual.
Phoebe lights some candles and drops a drop of blood.
Phoebe: That the vision I had, the daughter I saw, may them be lost forever to bring back from life the one who I caused harm.
Phoebe puts the fire in the cauldron, the blood starts boiling, a flame appears and the room fills with smoke
Phoebe: That's it?
Between the smoke, the figure of a very lost Cole appears.
Cole: Phoebe what have you done?
Phoebe: Is that they way to thank me?
Cole: Phoebe, you gave up your daughter.
Piper: We better leave you two alone.
Paige and Piper leave them alone.
Phoebe: Cole I had to do it.
Cole: But I didn't want you to do it, now I feel guilty.
Phoebe: But you shouldn't because it was my decision, I felt what you felt and what I've done is not comparable with what I did to you. I didn't understand you, I didn't want to, I was the only thing you had and I left you alone, I owed it to you.
Cole: Phoebe, I don't know what to say, thank you seems absurd.
Phoebe approaches him and looks at his eyes.
Phoebe: You can thank me or you can kiss me.
Cole: Why this change? Don't you think I'm The Source of all evil?
Phoebe: Let's just say that I heard all the truth, I did one of mines, I casted a spell.
Cole: When?
Phoebe: You kind of lose memory, sorry.
Phoebe feels fear of betrayal, but it's not her, it's Cole.
Phoebe: You're afraid of me, of betraying me.
Cole: No Phoebe it's no that I'm afraid of failing again, I don't want everything to happen again.
Phoebe: I'll never, listen to me, never leave you again.
Cole: Yes Phoebe but what if you do? I can't live like that, thinking that f I may lose you I will lose my mind, I need to find a reason to go on.
Phoebe in that moment realizes, Cole needs time alone, to understand what is he doing here, as much as it hurts she has to let him go.
Phoebe: You're right you have another chance, you can find yourself, and when you do if you still remember me, I'll be waiting.
Cole: Phoebe.
Phoebe: Leave, really it's the best.
Cole gives Phoebe a little kiss in her lips and leaves Phoebe crying.
Paige: What happened?
Phoebe: He's gone.
Phoebe goes to her room, and her sisters follow her they lay in bed with her while she's crying.
Cole wanders around the streets without knowing what to do, he's lost, he doesn't know why he's back or he deserves being back. Cole goes to the mausoleum, it brings back a lot of memories, bittersweet memories, he goes to the penthouse too, the stains from his death are still visible.
Cole is at the alley were he first met Phoebe, while he's lost looking at nothing really, Leo appears.
Leo: Cole.
Cole stands up smiling, he's happy to see him again.
Cole: Leo, I'm glad everything's ok with you and Piper.
Leo: Yes and apparently it is because of you.
Cole: Well I just helped a little, I wanted to amend some mistakes.
Leo: Yeah and now that you amended everything that you had to, what are you doing here?
Cole: To think.
Leo: About how to be a miserable?
Cole: Since when are you so direct?
Leo: Since I find miserable men trying t olive suffering.
Cole: Leo, it's not that easy, I'm afraid.
Leo: Cole you're human, maybe destiny awaits more disgrace, so please just don't look them by yourself. You know as well as I do that as much as you suffered when she wasn't with you, it's not comparable with all the happiness she gave you, so don't be a fool to think that story will repeat itself and live the moment, chances like this don't happen every day.
Cole: Leo I think that I'm more afraid of me hurting her that her hurting me.
Leo: I know Cole, but when you thought you were being honorable, you failed, it's now when you're hurting her, right now she's in her room crying and her sister don't know what to do. She gave up her daughter. Don't you think she deserves something from you?
Cole: I guess you're right, did you always were this good with advices?
Leo: Yes, it's just nobody listen to me.
Cole and Leo arrives to the manor, they first see Piper at the stairs.
Piper: Welcome to the family, you're staying right?
Cole: I'm staying.
They hug.
Cole: You're husband is very persuasive.
Piper: I know, we should consider him more.
Cole goes to Phoebe's room, when he's going to open the door, Paige exits, she's surprised to see him, and closes the door behind her.
Paige: Are you staying?
Cole: Yes, so you're planning to move out?
Paige hits him in his shoulder.
Paige: Don't say that I bet you know I had a bad time because of you
Cole smiles and hugs Paige.
Cole: I know, that's why I kid, I don't blame you so stop feeling guilty or I'll get mad and we know how bad can I be when I'm mad.
Paige laughs.
Paige: Good luck.
Cole opens the door and closes it behind him, Phoebe without looking thinks it's one of her sisters.
Phoebe: I said I needed to be alone, thank you but please leave me alone.
Cole: So should I leave then?
Phoebe jumps out of bed and looks at Cole surprised.
Phoebe: Cole what you're doing here?
Cole: Did you remember that you told me to leave to look for myself and that you will be waiting?
Phoebe: Yes.
Cole: Well I found myself already, you can't say I made you wait.
Phoebe smiles.
Phoebe: But you said…
Cole: A lot of stupid things, that's what I said, because we had bad moments but nobody could improve our good ones.
Phoebe goes to Cole and holds him tight.
Cole: So can I kiss you know?
Phoebe: It was about time.
Cole kisses Phoebe, while Piper, Paige and Leo are looking behind the door.
It seems everybody is happy, and who knows now that Cole's back Phoebe might will get the family she wanted, so that little girl is not that lost after all.
The End.
