Plunged into darkness

"Are you prepared to die, witch?" Cole asked, before throw an energy ball at Piper.

Piper's eyes widened and she rolled to the ground, avoiding the attack. She looked up at him terrified. When Phoebe took him with her, she started to fear for his life. But now it was pretty clear what was going on.

Phoebe turned Cole evil.

"Cole, listen to me... You're not evil," she said in despair.

He laughed. "Crazy witch... You'll die!" he said, forming another energy ball.

"No, she won't!" Paige shouted and, as he turned to her, she called. "Energy ball." And the energy ball appeared at her right hand.

"Paige, don't!" Piper plead, but her baby sister threw the energy ball at Cole. However, he managed to escape from the attack.

"He's under spell!" Piper said, looking at him in relief.

"He's attacking us," Prue warned her.

"It's not his fault!" Piper insisted.

"And how do you know that?" Paige asked.

"Yeah, little witch..." Cole said, standing up. "How do you know that?"

Piper looked up at him and felt her blood chill. Cole was different, very different. Certainly, he was under spell.

He needed to be under spell.

"What did Phoebe do to you?!" she snapped.

He looked confused at her. Why are that damn witch so worried about him? "My queen wants your head, so here I am, witch..."

"Cole, you're not..." she started to say, but her eldest sister interrupted her.

"You're under spell," Prue said.

Cole shook his head. "Crazy witches!" he shouted and walked to them.

Piper clenched her fists. She didn't know how she could be so fast in create the spell, but she did it.

In this time, in this hour

I call upon my power

To set Cole free from this evil spell

And return him to me as well

Magical forces, come to me

And set Cole free

So mote it be

Suddenly, Cole started to feel a terrible pain in his head and fell on his knees. Little by little, he remembered what had happened to him. Phoebe. The Underworld. The Sorcerer.

Piper.

"Cole, are you okay?" Piper asked, walking over to him.

"Wait!" Prue shouted. "We need to be careful... We don't know..." she was saying, when Cole's voice interrupted her.

"Piper..." he mumbled.

"Cole..." Piper sobbed, as she looked at him. His eyes changed.

The spell worked.

She didn't think twice and ran toward him. "You're here, everything is gonna be okay," she said, enveloping him in her arms.

"I'm sorry..." he apologized. "I was..."

"Shh," she put her forehead against his hair. "I know," she said, kissing him.

Suddenly, a demon flamed in behind them.

"Watch out!" Paige yelled, pointing to the creature.

Piper and Cole stepped back. "Who are you?" he asked.

The demon shook his head. "I'm here because my queen suspected you. I see she's right. Damn, Belthazor. Once a traitor, always a traitor!"

"Get outta here!" Piper shouted, trying to blow him up.

Unfortunately, nothing happened. "Nice try, but I'm not here to play with you," he said, flaming behind Cole.

"What the hell?" Piper mumbled, when he flamed out with Cole.

Prue and Paige exchanged glances, as Piper fell on her knees.

The Underworld

The Queen's chambers

As the demon flamed in, he threw Cole to the ground.

"What happened?" Phoebe asked, raising an eyebrow.

"He was with the witch, when I flamed in. They were kissing..." the demon explained.

"Phoebe, listen to me... They helped me, they can help you too..." Cole said, picking himself up.

But Phoebe wasn't listen what he was saying.

Damn Piper.

She clenched her fists so hard that blood started to tinkle slowly down her fingers. "They broke the spell," she muttered.

"Phoebe... please, you're a good person. You used to care about people," he said.

"I was a good person. Now, I'm the Source and I won't tolerate betrayal," she muttered, throwing a energy ball at Cole, who fell unconscious on the ground.
