A/N: Thank you for the reviews. I'm so sorry for the delay, but I was without ideas for this chapter.

Family reunion

The Underworld

Two weeks had passed since Piper, Paige and Prue went to the Underworld to rescue Cole. Phoebe had finally decided to put an end to Piper's life.

"Are you sure about it?" the Seer grinned.

Phoebe nodded. "I want her head."

The Seer nodded. "As you wish, my queen."

The Halliwell Manor

"You look beautiful," Cole said as he looked up to Piper, who was down the stairs wearing a black dress with a sleeve.

"Thank you," she said, wrapping her arms around him.

Paige rolled her eyes as she walked in. Definitely she still didn't feel comfortable with it. "I'm sorry, I'll go to my room," she said.

"Paige, it's okay..." Piper said softly.

Paige sighed. "Look, you two clearly liked each other and I accept that, but... I... I'm sorry," she said walking up the stairs.

Cole glanced at Piper, who lowered her head. "Give her time... We knew that it wouldn't be easy."

Piper nodded. "You're right," she said.

They went together to P3. Piper leaded Cole to the private booth, her favorite place. "Are you okay?" Cole asked.

"Yeah, I'm fine..."

"You're worried about your sisters, don't you?"

Piper sighed. "The way Paige looked at us... I know she doesn't approve our relationship."

Cole frowned. "We don't need her approval..."

"I know, but..."

"She'll be okay with it..."

"Are you sure?"

"Absolutely," Cole said softly, kissing her.

Piper tried to relax and forget about her problems for a while.

It was two o'clock in the morning, when they left P3. It was cold outside and Cole gave her his jacket. "Hum, I'm dating a gentleman..." she said smiling.

They were kissing when suddenly a demon appeared. "Very romantic," the demon said, letting out an nasty smile.

Cole instinctively put Piper behind him. "What do you want?" he asked angrily.

"Belthazor, long time no see... I'm not here for you," he said, looking at Piper.

"I'll not let you hurt her!" Cole said firmly.

The demon started to laugh. "Poor Belthazor, you had no powers! You can't protect even yourself."

Piper rolled her eyes. "Stay away from us!" she said, trying to blow him up.

However the demon reconstituted himself. "That wasn't very nice, you know," he said, sending a lightning bolt against them.

Fortunately, Piper and Cole managed to avoid the attack. "Hum, not so bad, I have to say," the demon said, letting out a nasty smile.

Piper tried to blow him up again and, as expected, he constituted himself.

"Dammit," she muttered in frustration.

The demon sent another lightning bolt and this time he almost hurt Cole. "Belthazor, I would have any problems in kill you, but I have specific orders to not hurt you," he said angrily.

Cole raised an eyebrow. He knew very well that there was no mercy in the Underworld. They certainly had plans for him and he didn't like it at all. "Well, you don't have much choices, because I won't let you kill her!" Cole said firmly.

The demon shot another lightning bolt and one more time the couple managed to avoid the attack. "This is really getting boring," he remarked.

Piper noticed that the demon was beside a big trash can and an idea crossed her mind. "Yeah, you're right. Let's make things more exciting," she said.

She blew up the trash can and the demon flew with the explosion.

"Not so bad, huh?" Piper smiled.

Cole ran to him and kick his stomach. "Who sent you?" he asked.

The demon clenched his teeth. "The Source, she wants her head."

Cole stepped back. "It's impossible! The Source was vanquished, for good!" he said.

"Well, there's a new Source in town," he said nastily, sending a slow lightning bolt against Cole, who screamed in pain and fell on the ground.

"Cole!" Piper screamed in horror, as the demon raised his right hand.

Cole was hurt and couldn't move.

"I can tell my queen it was an accident," the demon shouted.

However, before he could attack, someone flamed behind him. "I warned you to not hurt him!" a female voice shouted, pulling out an athame.

"My queen, please forgive me..." the demon said under his breath.

"You stupid traitor!" she said, burying the athame into his back.

Immediately, the demon fell on the ground, screaming in pain. The mysterious woman watched with cold eyes, as he disappeared in the middle of the flames.

"Who are you?' Piper asked, knelling beside Cole. She couldn't see the woman's face, but she knew her. It was the same demon who tried to keep Cole prisoner in the Underworld.

"What a shame, you don't recognize your own sister!" she said, lowering the hood.

Cole's eyes widened in horror, as Piper seemed froze in time. It was impossible, it just couldn't be true.

"Phoebe..." Cole whispered.
