Moments later, Phoebe was on the couch as Cole muttered to Paris. "So much to get away from here." He sighed. "But we can't let you sister die."
"I know." Paris told him. "After this I will them about you know..." He seemed to understand as he nodded to her.
Just then Leo orbed in. "What the hell are you doing here?" he looked at Cole.
"Forget about him, Leo. Phoebe's been shot." Prue replied to him.
Leo looked at the sisters. "Shot? How did that happen?"
"There's no time to explain." Prue looked at him. "Can you heal her?"
Leo started to heal her as Piper asked him. "Where's dad?"
"Seething probably." Leo replied as he continued to try and heal her but it doesn't work.
"Why isn't it working?" Paris asked concerned for her sister.
Leo sighed. "I don't know. Phoebe, you gotta tell me exactly how this happened."
"Um, I don't, I don't really know." Phoebe explained it to him. "I had a-a premonition and I felt Bo get shot and then I came out of it."
Prue looked at him. "Leo, can you heal her?"
"No, because Phoebe wasn't the one that was shot." Leo replied to her. "Bo was."
Piper looked confused. "What are you talking about? She's bleeding."
Leo sighed. "I know, but it's more like a psychic echo. Phoebe is linked to Bo somehow. Whatever he feels, whatever happens to him happens to her."
"Which means Bo must be magical too." Cole stated. "The only way they can be linked is through their magic."
Leo nodded "I agree."
"We have to find Bo." Cole suggested. "Heal him. It's the only way."
"Well, he's been cursed into a time loop along with the rest of the town." Piper told them. "And we don't know how to get there, let alone where there is."
"Well, it's gotta be a parallel plane existing in the same physical space as the town." Cole told her.
Prue looked at him. "You know, I don't think that we need any demonic input right now."
"If I can help save Phoebe's life, you sure as hell do." Cole glared at her.
Leo looked at him. "We're listening."
"Please, tell us what your plan is?" Paris asked to him.
Cole nodded. "Look, I move through different planes all the time. It's how I've been hiding from the Source. Shouldn't be any problem to shimmer into Bo's plane and bring him back here so you can heal him."
Piper raised an eyebrow. "You said you don't use your powers anymore."
"Shimmering isn't a lethal power." Cole comment to her.
"I agree." Paris muttered.
Phoebe looked at Cole. "Uh, why don't you just take Leo with you and you can heal Bo there?"
"I can't." Leo glared at Cole. "I'm not allowed to work with a demon."
Prue stood up. "Fine. I'll go."
"And me." Paris added.
Piper looked at her sisters. "Prue. Paris."
"I'm not gonna leave this up to him." Prue sighed.
"What she said." Paris pointed at Prue.
Piper looked at them. "Well, okay, what if something goes wrong and you get stuck in the time loop and you don't get back before midnight?"
"I'm not a Charmed One." Paris replied to her. "Whatever happens, Cole and I will make sure Prue is back safe and sound."
Prue sighed. "It's not the time loop I'm worried about." She looked at Piper. "Look, why don't you and Leo go to the town, see if you can find anything there to help break the curse." Then she looked at Phoebe. "You? You hang in there, okay?"
"Play nice, you three." Phoebe replied to them.
"We will." Paris nodded.
Cole looked at Prue and Paris. "Gotta hold my hand."
"This already sucks." Prue sighed as she held his hand Paris did the same and they shimmered out.
----------------------------
Cole, Paris and Prue shimmered in the town. Prue looked around her "Oh, wow, it worked."
"It really did." Paris comment, looking at Cole.
"You doubted me?" Cole asked to them.
"Well, no." Paris replied to him.
"Yeah, well, for all I know you were gonna take me..." Prue was interrupted. "Whoa! Aah!." Then, they hear a gunshot as then Cole pushed the girls against a wall of a building. "Okay."
"What the hell?" Paris exclaimed.
"Welcome to the Wild, Wild West." Cole replied causally.
Prue looked at him. "Alright, just-just so we're clear, I'm in charge here as is Paris. You're just our ride."
"Fine with me." Cole looked at them. "What's your plan?"
"Find Bo, lay low." Paris replied to him.
Cole raised an eyebrow. "That's a plan?"
"Yeah." Paris looked at him as Prue crossed with her arms. "You got a better one?"
Cole looked them up and down. "Maybe, but first I think we better find something a little less conspicuous to wear."
Then, Prue pushed him away. "Fine. Agreed. Any ideas?"
Suddenly, a couple of cowboys carry a dead cowboy out of a building. Cole nodded to Prue and Paris. "Yeah. Nothing you're gonna like though."
---------------------
Sometime later, Prue, Paris and Cole walked into a saloon wearing cowboy clothes. "Still think you should have worn that pretty, little red dress drying on the line." Cole comment to them both.
"Yeah, it was a prostitute's dress." Prue comment back, sarcastically. "Not exactly the kind of impression I wanted to make. At least I'm not wearing some dead guy's clothes."
Paris snickered a little. "She got you there."
Cole looked at them. "Hey, I thought you'd be pleased. At least I'm playing the role of a good guy." He told them.
"Yeah, right." Paris had a small smile on her face.
"Alright, just fact-finding. No getting involved." Prue added.
Then they walked up to the bar. Bartender looked at them. "What'll it be?"
"Hi. Moonshine." Prue replied to him.
Bartender looked confused. "A what?"
"She means Whiskey." Cole replied to him. "Make it two."
"Make it three." Paris corrected him.
"Leave the bottle." Cole comment as then he looked at Prue. "You watch too many old movies."
"And you'd be confusing me with Phoebe." Prue added.
Cole shook with his head. "Not a chance."
Bartender looked at them. "Passing through?"
"Maybe." Cole replied to him.
"Maybe if you're not, you ought to consider it." Bartender told them. "Things are getting pretty dangerous around here. Friendly advice. Wet your whistle, get back on your horses, and move on as fast as you can."
"Hi. What are we?" Prue asked to the bartender.
"A potted plant or something?" Paris added. "Talk to us. What's so dangerous?"
Bartender looked at them. "It's nothing to concern your pretty little heads about."
"Okay, now that's condescending." Prue told him.
"I agree." Paris nodded.
Cole looked at the sisters. "Lay low, remember?"
"Fine." Prue sighed.
"Okay." Paris nodded.
Cole looked at the Bartender. "You were saying?"
"There's some trouble between a powerful man in town..." Bartender was interrupted by Prue.
"Sutter?" She asked to him.
"The gang that are here." Paris added.
Bartender looked at them. "How do you know about Sutter?" He asked.
"This pretty little head knows a lot." Paris replied to him.
"So, why don't you talk to all of us now?" Prue added. "Tell us what's going on."
Bartender looked at them. "One of Sutter's men just got killed and now there's gonna be hell to pay." He told them all.
"That's the gun shot we had heard." Paris looked at Cole and Prue as they nodded to her.
Just then, three cowboys walked in the saloon as everyone turned to look. Sutter walked in behind them. "Where is he? Just so you know, I've already taken the liberty to print up the evening edition." Then he held up a newspaper with the headline "Half-breed to Die at Sundown". "Just so you know how serious this is. All the news that's fit to print." He turned to Isabel, Bo's sister. "You know where your little brother's hiding, now don't you?"
Isabel didn't look at him. "Even if I did, I'd never tell you. I'm not afraid of you, Mr. Sutter."
"Well, if you were smart, you'd be." Sutter told her. "Of course your kind are not, are they?"
The sisters started to go over but Cole stopped her. "Hold it. Plan is not to get involved."
Sutter turned to Cal. "I haven't seen Bo, Mr. Sutter, I swear. Not since he took off."
"You know, you lie to me again, Cal, and I'll do worse than this." Sutter held up a whip. Then a cowboy stabbed Cal's hand with a knife.
Prue rushed over and pushed the cowboy away as then she took off her scarf and wrapped it around Cal's hand. "What the hell is wrong with you people?"
Sutter looked at her. "Well, well, well. What do we got here?"
"Uh, Prue?" Cole asked to her.
"Lady, I don't know who you are or where you come from but you obviously don't have the slightest idea who you're dealing with." Sutter told her.
"Oh, please, what a cliché." Prue comment to him.
Then the cowboy stood up. "I usually don't hit women, but seeing you is dressed like a man, I imagine I can make an exception."
Just then, Prue blocked his punch and smashed a whiskey bottle over his head. Then she got out her gun and shoot at the cowboy's rifle, making it fly out of his hand.
Then Paris pulled out her gun and aimed at them as Cole pulled out a rifle and aimed is at the men. "Don't."
"No, we'll deal with these three later, after we take care of Bo." Sutter ordered his men.
A angry looking Cowboy looked at Cole. "This ain't over. You and me, we got a score to settle."
Then Sutter looked at the town people. "One of you know where he's at. And if you don't tell me, I'm gonna burn this town to the ground looking for him." Then they leave.
Cole and Paris went over to Prue. "So much for laying low."
"Yeah." Prue nodded.
--------------------------------------------------
Not much later, Prue, Cole, Paris and Isabel walked outside. "Sutter's in tight with the railroads. He came here a couple of months ago promising to bring the tracks through and make it more than just an old mining town." Isabel explained it to them.
"In exchange for what?" Paris asked to her.
"A piece of everything." Isabel replied to her. "The mines, the bank, the newspaper. When folks started resisting, his boys took over. At first everybody stood up to them, but after they killed the sheriff. Cowards."
Cole looked at her. "Why's Sutter after your brother?"
"Because Bo wouldn't back down." Isabel replied to him. "He kept on fighting, trying to get everybody to take back the town."
"Sounds like a brave man." Cole comment to her.
Isabel nodded. "He is. Too bad the others aren't."
"Isabel, we know that Bo is injured." Prue told her. "We know that he's been shot. We can help you, but you have to trust us."
"I do." Isabel nodded. "Bo said you'd come."
Cole looked confused. "How's that again?"
"Bo, he saw it in one of his dreams." Isabel replied to him. "He said that three strangers would come, so, um, I knew."
"Alright, so wait a second." Paris asked to her, a little confused as was Prue. "Bo has dreams about the future?"
"Yeah. He has the gift." Isabel nodded. "He inherited it from our father, who was a great medicine man. His name was Soaring Crow."
"Was?" Prue asked to her.
Isabel looked sad. "He died when we were young." She replied to her. "When we moved here, my mother wouldn't allow Bo to talk about his gift. She knew that magic was considered evil in the white man's world."
"Yeah, I know what it's like to have a gift that you have to keep a secret." Prue comment.
"And live in a place where you have to hide half of who you are." Cole added.
"Same." Paris nodded to them.
"Come." Isabel told them all. "I'll take you to Bo. Come."
Then they walked over to three horses as Cole asked to Isabel. "Where'd you get the horses?"
"I told you." Isabel replied to him. "I was expecting you."
"And why are there three horses?" Paris asked to her.
"Well, you can't ride a horse." Isabel looked at her as Paris looked at surprised. "My brother told me that."
Then Cole helped her up his horse as he went to sit behind her as Prue comment. "Why must she sit by you?"
"Cause, I'm a gentlemen." Cole replied to her.
"Hello, I can speak for myself." Paris looked at them, annoyed. "And strangely enough I feel safe by him." Prue nodded and said nothing more.
"I Yi ,Yi, Yi, Yi." Cole said in a whisper. Then he spoke out loud. "You know, I still say we eliminate the threat first, kill Sutter. Probably break the curse anyway."
Then the others got on the horses. "Yeah, well, we don't know that, which is why we need to get to Bo first." Prue told him. "You know, Cole, if you want to try your hand at being good, your first instinct shouldn't be to kill." Then they ride off as Cal got on his horse and followed them.
