Hi ;) This episode will start a little differently, with a series of flashbacks, because it will happen 2 months after the last one. Also, it's going to be something that Charmed never did: a Christmas special! Hope you like it.
Such a Halliwell Christmas!
*Flashbacks*
Phoebe and Cole flame into a cave in the underworld; they look surprised for a while.
-It's gone. –Phoebe said. –The prison is gone.
-I told you they might have moved it to another place, especially after I escaped… -Cole tells her.
She sighs and they flame away.
Paige is in her apartment, talking to an Elder:
-Really? –She asked with a surprised, but happy, face.
-Yes. –The Elder responds. –Henry will be allowed to see his children again, but not to see you.
-Will I ever see him again? –She asks with a frown.
-I don't know. –He answers orbing away.
In Phoebe's loft, she's seen running to Coop's arms.
-You're back! –She exclaims, beaming with happiness.
-Yes, I told you I'd solve all the problems. But I'm still going to find out who did it… -He answers seriously.
-Fine, but let's just enjoy this moment now, shall we? –She asks kissing him and then laying on the bed with him.
Piper is sitting at the couch, holding a magazine.
-Leo! –She shouts.
-What? –He asks coming into the room.
-Guess whose restaurant was nominated as one of the best one in San Francisco? –She asks smiling.
-Really? –Leo similes. –That's awesome Piper! –He adds hugging her. –You deserve it.
-We deserve it. –She corrects with a smile.
Phoebe is sitting on her bed with Piper, they're holding hands.
-You can't tell anyone. –Phoebe asks.
-Don't worry, I won't, I just don't get why, you and Coop should be happy about it.
-The thing is that I haven't told anyone, just you. Things with Cole are finally fine, and I don't wanna ruin it.
-Oh, sweetie, you can't do this. Cole has moved on, and I know that it took a lot from you to accept him back; he doesn't have the right to be mad about it.
-I know, but let's just wait a little, ok? Let's remember that we lost our baby.
-Honey, that was years ago, and that baby was never really yours, it was the source's. And besides, he has already moved on from that too. But I won't tell anyone, I promise.
Next to them, over the bed, there was a pregnancy test; it was positive.
Prue and every one of the family are standing in the middle of the living room; Andy was kneeling on the floor, holding and open, small box:
-Prue Halliwell, I've known you for my whole life, and I've been in love with you for so many years! Would you give me the honor of marrying me?
-Yes! –Prue says and then kisses him.
Leo and Piper are sitting together on the couch, talking:
-I can't think of what would have happened if I hadn't been there to tell Wyatt to stop using his powers, someone could have seen him. –Leo said.
-I know, I think we should send him to magic school to learn how to control it better. –She said.
-I know you didn't want to…
-But it's necessary. I just hope we'll be able to balance that with his normal life; I don't want him to be lonely and be called a freak or something like that…
-Don't worry, we'll find a way to do this. –He consoled her.
*End of flashbacks*
Present time: December 24th
Prue and Paige are sitting on the couch, talking:
-You know, when I moved out, I thought we wouldn't stay as close as we were before. –Paige said to Prue. –But I'm glad I was wrong, we still see each other almost every day, especially now that we've been facing demons again.
-Yeah, I can't imagine my life without you, and I can't believe it's been a year since I came back to life and met you. –Prue replied.
-It's definitely been a long year. –Paige said extending the last word.
Their chat was interrupted by the sound of Phoebe and Cole talking upstairs; they were still looking for Jake.
-What do you think about him? –Prue asks looking up.
-Cole? I still don't trust him. I know he's been helping us and that Phoebe and Piper trust him, but the two years he spent with us weren't very pleasant; especially when he tried to kill me… -The younger sister replied. What about you?
-I don't trust him too, but I'll give him a chance.
-But let's not talk about that; tell me, where is your fiancé taking you to today?
-I don't know, he said he wants to surprise me; all I know is that we're going to have lunch together.
Paige squealed with happiness just like a teenager.
Upstairs, Phoebe and Cole are looking at an improvised map of the underworld that Cole had made.
-Where could he be? –She asks frustrated.
-I don't know, but I'm sure this map won't help us.
-Then what are we going to do? It's been two months and we still have no clue about Jake!
-That's why I'm telling you to let go, we won't find him, or the Triad, unless they want us too; right now we should be more concerned about why they stopped attacking us.
-I know, I'm sorry; but it's just so hard for me to let go, I mean, he saved your life and… -She gave up talking.
-Right now there's nothing we can do. I promise you, as soon as we have a clue, I'll help you find him.
-Ok. –She says and then sighs.
Suddenly, Phoebe hears Piper calling her. She leaves the attic and goes to her sister's room.
-What? –She asks as soon as she gets there.
-I know you told me not to, and you can hide it here if you want, but I couldn't help but to buy it. –Piper says showing a tinny baby shirt.
-Oh Piper! That's beautiful. –Phoebe says with one hand over her belly. –But I'll definitely hide it here. –She adds with a smile. –Thank you.
-You're welcome. –Piper answers smiling.
Downstairs, Prue hears the doorbell rings and then rushes to the door. She opens it and Andy gets inside, holding a package.
-What's that? –Prue asks.
-Don't know, it was on the door when I got here; let's open it.
Prue follows Andy's suggestion and finds a small snow globe inside the box.
-That's cute. –Prue says shaking it. –Who do you thing left it her… -Before she could finish her sentence, she and Andy are sucked by the globe and transported into another dimension: some kind of frozen forest.
-Oh. –Prue says.
–Where are we? –Andy asks.
-I don't know, but I'm sure the Triad has something to do with it; only they would attack us on Christmas Eve.
Andy chuckles and Prue look at him.
-It's not funny! We're gonna freeze in here unless we find a place to hide.
-I'm glad I have a powerful witch here to help me. –He says grabbing her hand and pulling her into the forest.
-I don't think we should go wandering off…
-If you want to find any kind of shelter, that that's our only option…
She nods and then follows him into the woods.
In the manor, no one notices the snow globe on the floor. Not until Phoebe walks to the door and finds it open.
-One thing is to leave it unlocked, but leaving it open is totally different. –Phoebe says to herself remembering the problems that not locking the door had brought them before. –Hey, what's that? –She asks seeing the globe on the floor. The moment she touched it, she got a vision:
"Prue and Andy were sucked into the globe; they were now in a cave, lost and slowly freezing."
-Oh God. –She said to herself before being sucked into the globe too.
When the globe fell on the floor, it cracked, and the place on the floor where it fell froze immediately. Soon, the ice spreads and covers the whole floor, and part of the walls.
–Phoebe, have you seen my phone? –Paige asking stepping on the floor. As soon as she did it, she froze and became an ice statue.
A few minutes after that happened, Leo, Piper and Cole found her.
-What happened? –Piper asked.
-I have no idea. –Leo answers. –But I guess it has something to do with that. –He says pointing to the globe, which seemed to be the source of the ice.
-We need to get it. –Cole says.
-I'll do it. –Leo says stepping on the ice before Piper stops him; he becomes a statue just like Paige.
-Leo! –Piper exclaims! –How are we going to get that thing?
-Let me try, I can melt the ice. –Cole says.
-No way you're burning my floor; I'll take care of the melting and you get that thing. –Piper says.
She waves her hand and part of the ice melts; Cole runs and grabs the globe, being sucked by it right after.
-Great. –Piper says sarcastically.
Phoebe is walking through the woods, looking desperately for Prue and Andy; when she finally finds them, they're inside the cave from her vision.
-Phoebe! –Prue shouts.
-I'm so glad I found you, I was worried.
-It's ok, we're fine. –Andy answers for Prue. –Please tell me you came to get us out.
-I wish I knew how. –She says and they frown.
-At least now we have someone else to help us get warm. –Andy says trying to calm the girls down.
-Yeah. –Phoebe replies with her hands over her belly.
-Is everything ok Pheebs? Prue asks.
-Besides the fact that we're freezing? Yeah.
-I'm serious; tell me what's wrong.
Phoebe looks at Prue and says weakly:
-I'm pregnant.
-What?! Really?! That's awesome news Phoebe!
-I know; I guess I'm kinda nervous about it.
-Congratulations. –Andy says smiling.
Suddenly, they hear a different voice say something:
-You're pregnant Phoebe? –It was Cole who said it.
She turns around surprised, but before she can say anything, something throws Cole far away.
A huge monster made of ice appears and try to attack them with ice beams and ice balls.
Prue and Phoebe do a great job deviating the attacks, but none of their powers affects the monster. Phoebe levitates a kicks the monster, but it throws her against the wall of the cave. It has cornered Prue and Andy, but before attacking them, it is hit by an enormous fireball sent by Cole.
After multiple attacks, and with Prue's help, Cole destroys the monster, leaving only a mark on the floor.
Suddenly, after that, the snow moves and forms words on the floor:
"This was just a warm up; did you really think I would just leave you in peace? –Omicron"
-That's great. –Coles says to himself before the four of them are teleported back to the manor, where Piper, Paige and Leo are waiting; the last two with blankets over their shoulders.
-Thanks. –Paige and Leo say at the same time.
-You're welcome. –Cole says. –But your sisters also helped.
Phoebe and Prue smile before Piper calls them.
-Hum, guys, I don't know if you realize how much time you spent there, but it's already Christmas. –Piper says.
-What? But it was noon when I was transported! –Prue says.
-But now it's 6 am and I had to sleep in the attic so that the ice wouldn't reach me. –Piper says. –So you all better have some nice gifts for me. –She adds joking.
They exchanged presents and Phoebe announced to everyone that she was pregnant. While they were celebrating and waking the children up, Cole called Phoebe.
-Cole, I… -Phoebe started to say.
-You don't owe me any explanation, ok? I get it that you're married now and that you already have a daughter. You shouldn't worry about this, I've moved on and I don't want you to hold yourself because of me. I'm happy if we can just be friends. –He says.
-I'm more than ok with just friends. –She says and they hug.
-Hey Phoebe, come back here, Wyatt is looking for you. –Piper calls.
-I guess I should go. –Cole says.
-Nope, you're coming with me. –Phoebe grabs his arms and then pulls him to the room with her.
