Chapter 9 : The full truth
"Are you sure that this is a good idea, Piper ?" Paige asked while making the circle with the crystals.
"For Prue ? Yes, it is. You heard what they said." Piper answered
"Yeah, I did but do you remember what Cole did to us ? And what he's still doing to Phoebe ?" Paige whispered
Piper looked at her middle sister and saw that Paige was right about her. Phoebe was staring at a white wall, just thinking about Cole and everything they had been through.
"Maybe Cole will have the answers" Piper said
The three sisters joined around the circle and chanted the spell. Suddenly there was a fire in the middle of the circle and after three seconds Cole Turner appeared.
Cole looked at the persons who conjured him and was speechless for a moment. Then he remembered why they were here.
"Well, not the girl who I was expecting" he said
"Prue" Piper claimed
Cole nodded. "It's a nice change of scenery ofcourse but she could've given me a warning"
This time Paige answered. "why ? Because we might vanquish you again ?"
Piper and Phoebe looked at Paige with wide eyes to shut her up. Cole however just smiled.
"Ah Paige, one face I thought I'd never see again and be happy about it. Wait no, that's not true. The last 4 months of our lives, we were getting there"
Phoebe's eyes snapped to Cole's. For a moment she couldn't help and drown in them. It were still the same eyes as she remebered in her dreams. She always told herself that she was over Cole but now that she saw him again, she wasn't so sure anymore.
"What are you talking about, Cole ?" Phoebe asked
Cole kept looking at her. "Why did you conjure me ? Where's Prue ?"
"Not so fast, mister. First I wanna know why you are training my daughter to defeat her brother" Piper said
"Well, maybe you didn't notice but Wyatt isn't your little boy anymore Piper. Prue needs to fulfill her destiny and bring back the balance between light and dark……Well, that's what I've been told" Cole answered
"But why you ?" Leo asked, speaking up for the first time
Cole's eyes flashed with anger for a moment. "Well, her father didn't care about her or this family so I've always considered Prue as my daughter. She's special and a quick learner. When her father found out that I was training her to fight like a demon, he was beyond angry. He even demanded that the Elders would end my probation and send me to Hell."
"Why didn't they ?" Paige asked
"Because Prue orbed up to the Heavens where she hadn't been for years and threatened to stop fighting evil if they send me to the Underworld" Cole explained
"And they complied ? That doesn't sound like the Elders I know" Piper asked
Cole looked at her with a strange look. "There're many things that didn't sound like them but they did it anyway."
"What probation ?" Phoebe now spoke up.
She had been silent since Cole appeared but now she needed to know what he meant with his last sentence.
"The Heavens. If Prue defeats Wyatt, I get a golden ticket to the land of milk and honey" Cole answered again with a strange tone
"Why would they let you up to the Heavans ? What's there for you anyway ?" Paige asked
"Me" Phoebe whispered
Cole nodded. "But not only you, Phoebe"
