Chapter One: Cole. Dead?

Piper was in Melinda's bedroom, kneeling next to her bed. It was 9:30 at night, and Melinda had been in bed for a little over an hour, and was sleeping very soundly. Her dark hair was fanned over the pillow and over her face. Her left thumb was in her mouth and her bed was filled up with a thousand teddy bears, all different shapes and sizes.

Leo walked into Melinda's bedroom and put his hands on Piper's shoulders.

"She is so peaceful when she's asleep." He whispered to his wife. "Can you believe how fast she's growing up?"

"I know. She's three, but those three years seem like three days." Piper said.

~~~~~

Phoebe and Paige were downtown, looking for stuff to spoil Melinda with.

"You do know, that Melinda is going to be a spoiled brat when she goes to school, don't you?" Paige told Phoebe.

~~~~~

"Spoiled, yes. Brat, no." Phoebe replied to Paige as they walked into the clothes store. They knew that Melinda wouldn't appreciate the clothing concept until she was older, but her aunts could appreciate it.

"Piper is going to kill us if we keep doing this." Paige said.

"Why, because we are Melinda's aunts and we have the privilege to buy her stuff and get her to love us soo much and Piper has to discipline her? Nah, I don't think she will." Phoebe joked.

Cole stood in the alley, waiting for Elok to attack. Elok was an upper level demon, much more powerful that Cole ever was. Elok can change into any person, animal, or object that it wants to. It's hard to fight a demon like Elok, especially in dark alleys. Elok appeared behind Cole with an athame in his hand. He grabbed Cole around his waist and shoved the athame into his throat. Blood poured out of Cole as he crumpled to the ground and died. Elok chuckled to himself and shimmered away.

Phoebe and Paige walked out of a clothing store and started walking down the street. Phoebe's shoulder brushed against a tall man with dark brown hair and blue/green eyes. He shoved her over a little, but it didn't hurt. The thing that did hurt though, was her vision. Phoebe fell to her knees and let the visions fill her head.

The guy she saw.getting killed by a demon.blue skin.black eyes.with an athame. the guy.falling to the ground.in a big heap. the demon getting away.

"Phoebe? Are you okay?" Paige asked her sister, kneeling next to her.

"Yeah." Phoebe replied. "Where did that man go!?"

"Uh. that way!" Paige said, pointing south. The girls chased after the man, they finally found him, and he was walking into a dark alley.

"Don't these people ever learn that it isn't safe to be in dark alleys this late at night?" Phoebe asked.

"Obviously not." Paige replied. They walked into the alley and saw the demon that was in Phoebe's vision. He did have an athame, but Paige called it away from him. Phoebe levitated and aimed a kick at his head. Her foot connected perfectly with his head, and knocked him out. Phoebe looked at the ground where the demon fell, and saw another body.

"Cole.?" Phoebe was surprised to see that the other body on the ground was her Ex husband, Cole Turner.

A/N: Please review. Don't worry if you are a Cole fan, it gets bettter, and you will love it, I promise!
