Magic black and magic white, entwine thy selves this very night, the angel of the charmed will fall from grace…once they see Gabriel's face.
"What do you think it means?" Sherridan asked Darryl Morris as they inspected the bloody message.
"I don't know." Darryl shook his head, "I've seen some crazy stuff in my time but this…the guy looks like the perp used his blood before he killed him."
"That's because he was." Alex, the medical examiner, replied, "The poor kid didn't have a chance, there are deep claw like marks on his arms…it's awful."
"Magic black and magic white, entwine thy selves this very night, the angel of the charmed will fall from grace…once they see Gabriel's face."
"What does that mean?" Paige frowned.
"That's why I came to you. Magic, angels, Charmed…the connections write themselves." Darryl said, "Let me know if you figure anything out." He rose from the chair and with a smile left the house.
"Chris get your ass here now!" Piper called.
"What?" Chris' disembodied voice asked as his orbs landed in the kitchen, when he reformed they saw just how bad he looked.
Piper slid the paper across the table and as Chris read the note it took all his strength to stay standing.
"There something you wanna say?" Paige asked sarcastically.
Chris ran his hands over the photograph, "Gabriel's back." He whispered.
"Who is this Gabriel and why's he got you so spooked?" Piper demanded.
"I vanquished him…bound his soul in the dark…he shouldn't…"
"Chris, what are you afraid of?" Phoebe asked.
"You don't get it." He whispered, "Gabriel is…"
"What?" Piper asked, she put a hand on his arm, "Chris who is he?"
"Me."
"YOU'RE A DEMON?" Piper screamed.
He rose his hands, "No!" he shouted back, "My lovely Uncle didn't pass the Belthazor gene to his own children…"
"Cole?" Phoebe's voice trembled, "Cole Turner's your Uncle?"
Chris ran his hands through his hair, "Yeah…you see you know I'm part witch part whitelighter, that's who I am. But I was given another entity, Gabriel…Gabriel is Belthazor's heir. But Uncle Cole helped me bind him, it hurt like hell but he was gone."
"And now he's back."
"No. Someone wants to bring him back."
Before they could say anything they were engulfed in bright lights.
