"Wait, wait. What the hell happened?" Phoebe asked shock plastered on her face. Paige had wanted to say that he went back to his evil ways, but that would only make things worse.
"Phoebe just calm down…" Piper started, but Phoebe didn't listen to her.
"Calm down? Calm down?" She repeated. "My fiancée just shimmered out of here and you expect me to be calm about this?" Phoebe was instantly heading for the Book of Shadows. "How could he even shimmer?" she yelled to no one in particular.
"Um…Phoebe…how do we know he wasn't kidnapped?" Piper asked. Phoebe stopped on that note, and turned to face Piper.
"I guess that could be the case," Phoebe mused. Paige once again wanted to suggest that maybe Cole was once again evil, but she knew that she would only get yelled at. "Leo…could you maybe try sensing him?" Phoebe asked, running a hand through her long hair.
"I can try, but I doubt I will get anything since he is probably in the Underworld," Leo said in a calm voice.
"Well will you try anyway?" Phoebe snapped at Leo.
"Phoebe…" Piper started, but Leo closed his eyes and tried to focus on Cole, but no luck. "Maybe we can write a spell to teleport us to him…or re-write the Belthazar summoning spell…"
"Or try and get a premonition where Cole was…" Paige said trying to sound helpful without implying Cole was evil. Paige could barely stand not saying anything about Cole. Ever since she saw Cole as Belthazar, her general distrust became disgust. He is going to do something to hurt her sister, and Paige didn't like that.
"Ok Phoebe…go try and get a premonition off of anything that is his, and me and Paige will work on a summoning spell," Piper sighed seeing the look on Paige's face. Phoebe nodded her head, and headed downstairs. "Ok…that is the I hate Cole face," Piper commented.
"I have an I hate Cole face?" Paige snickered, trying to throw Piper off.
"Paige…I know you don't trust Cole, but he helped us against the Source, and he did that without any powers, as a mortal," Piper sighed. Paige openly rolled her eyes at her sister. Paige knew that she should trust her sisters on this, but warning bells had always been ringing about Cole and Phoebe's relationship since the beginning, but whenever she tried to talk to Piper or Phoebe about it, they exploded at her.
"I can't help if I can't trust an ex-demon who used to hunt witches for a living," Paige snapped walking over to the Book of Shadows.
"Paige…" Piper started.
"No and it doesn't help that he has been acting more weird than normal," Paige snapped at Piper, "Something is up,"
"You don't think I would know when something was up with my own fiancé is not acting normal?" Phoebe's voice said suddenly. "Thanks for the support Paige," Phoebe said dryly.
"Phoebe…" Paige started.
"Save it Paige," Phoebe said snatching the Book of Shadows. "You know, you'd think I would be used to having people not trusting Cole by now," Phoebe said.
"Phoebe…we do trust Cole," Piper started.
"No…you never have, it has always just been so you could try and make me happy, and thanks for that," Phoebe said. "So I am going to find a way to get my future husband back, with or without your help," Phoebe stormed for her room.
"Thanks a lot Paige, now Phoebe is pissed at both of us," Piper snapped at her youngest sister.
"Yeah…just blame me Piper," Paige snapped.
"Ladies…calm down," Leo said stepping in between the sisters, "Your sister is in her room trying to find a way to the Underworld all by herself," Leo reminded them. Paige was about to retort that she could just go and try to save Cole by herself, but Piper started to drag her towards Phoebe's room.
"Ok…we are calling for a truce, so there will be no way you are going to try and save Cole by yourself," Piper snapped at her younger sister. Phoebe and Paige didn't look too happy about it, but stayed where they were. Piper walked over towards Phoebe, and started to look in the Book of Shadows. "Paige…are you going to help?" Piper said through clenched teeth. Paige rolled her eyes and stalked over towards them, sitting far away from Phoebe.
"Um…I can try and re-write the summoning spell…" Paige tried. It would be better than doing nothing seeing Phoebe glare at her while trying to save Cole. Phoebe just nodded and found the spell to find a lost love.
"Phoebe…I don't know if that is going to work…" Piper said looking at the spell. "And he isn't dead, so I am not sure if he would be considered lost," Piper mused.
"Well he is if you consider it as missing," Phoebe pointed out.
"That would only teleport you…" Piper said, pointing to the spell. "You cannot go to the Underworld by yourself,"
"I can try to come up with a scrying spell to try and find Cole in the Underworld, unless we got some map of the Underworld handy," Paige muttered interrupting their bickering. Phoebe continued to look at the book and Piper sighed.
"Maybe Leo could go down in the Underworld and sense for Cole," Piper tried trying to snap Phoebe out of staring at the spell.
"Ok…have Leo do that…maybe I can get myself down to Cole with the spell," Phoebe said standing up to head for the attic.
"Phoebe it is too dangerous," Paige said standing up.
"I'll be fine…. besides if anything I can call for Leo if he gets to the Underworld," Phoebe said pushing past Paige. "And there is a call back spell too, so don't worry about it," Phoebe said grabbing some candles.
"Aren't candles normally used for summoning spirits?" Paige whispered to Piper.
"Phoebs…you might only Astral Project down there with that spell. It is very vague on what it actually does…" Piper pointed out.
"Piper we have already been through this, I am doing the spell, with or without your help," Phoebe sighed.
"Fine…but if there is any trouble, we are summoning your ass back," Piper sighed. Paige nodded in agreement.
"If anything, maybe Cole will know where he is, and can direct you guys to where we are," Phoebe set herself in the middle of the circle of candles and chanted, "Writher my love, wherever you be, take my heart near to thee," Phoebe let out a gasp and her body hit the floor.
"I knew it. Astral projection," Piper sighed.
"You were right Piper," Paige sighed. "We'd better stay up here just in case another demon decides to show their faces," Paige said sitting on the couch.
Phoebe opened up her eyes, and suddenly she was in a cave. She looked around and saw no sign of Cole anywhere. "Cole…" she called out tentatively. She stood up and started to walk around. This didn't look like any cave in the Underworld she had ever seen.
She felt someone grab a hold of her shoulder and instantly she grabbed whoever was held onto her shoulder and was about to let out a punch, and stopped when she saw it was Cole. "Cole…" he fell into her arms, and she barely caught him. "Where are we," she asked putting one of his arms around her shoulder.
"I don't know…" Cole said in a weird voice. Phoebe wondered what the hell was going on.
"Cole who did this to you?" Phoebe asked as she walked over towards the wall to let him rest. "Well…duh Phoebe demons," she answered her question.
"Phoebe stay away from him," Cole's voice appeared from the other side of the room, and Phoebe saw Cole.
"Wait what's going on?" she said looking in between the Coles. The one on the other side of the room was harboring the same wounds as the one next to her.
"Get away from him Phoebe. That's not me…that's the Source!" The other Cole said.
"Wait don't listen to him Phoebe," The Cole next to her whimpered. "I am the real Cole," God…another freaking shape shifter demon, Phoebe thought to herself. Just got to figure out which one is the real Cole. She backed away from the one next to her, and made sure both were in hindsight.
"Ok…what is my favorite movie?" Phoebe asked suddenly.
They both answered, "Kill it Before it Dies," Damn, she thought to herself. She guessed the Source would have known that. The Source kind of knows everything about her.
"How did you propose to me?" Phoebe asked.
"Which time?" the Cole asked on the other side of the room, "The first time when I proposed to you in demon goo? Or when we were possessed by those convicts…or the final time I asked and you said yes, when we vanquished him," Cole said pointing his finger at the Cole nearest me, who was sitting up on his own, an angry look on his face. Suddenly a sword flamed into his hand and headed for Phoebe. The Source ran towards her, and Phoebe managed to dodge a swipe from it, and landed a punch on him.
Cole was starting to run towards them, as he saw Phoebe get knocked down. "Phoebe!" he shouted running towards them, knowing he wouldn't get to them in time, when all the sudden white lights flew next to the Source forming into a woman with Raven colored hair.
"Back off of my sister!" and instantly the Source was sent flying.
"Prue?" Phoebe asked in a shocked voice.
