The Destiny of Cole Turner
Written by J. Wills
Part One
"Cole?" Phoebe blurts out her tone lined with confusions. Her eyes narrowed into him; "I was told you had gone. Knew it sounded too good to be true." She let out a faint laugh shaking her head as she pressed hold on the elevator doors. "I had to come and check myself, lucky I did. And its lucky I never brought a moving in present for the newbie's, it would have been a plant and I wouldn't of got a refund, you know what Piper would have been like, she says I'm not good with Plants and it would be her doing all the watering ok I'm babbling." Phoebe told him, taking a deep breath. Not that this information was important. She didn't know herself why she was telling him all this. Apart of her wanted to talk to him again, not because she still loved him, or even missed him. Just because.
Phoebe turned her head slightly looking at the women with him she unaware of who she was and little embarrassed. "Well I better go." Phoebe says pressing the ground floor button as her eyes moved towards the floor, how much was she really lying to herself?
Cole could barely believe his eyes, it was Phoebe. The shock left him motionless, and her words didn't even register with him. Of all the people and things he'd expect to see, his Wiccan ex-wife was NOT among them!
"Phoebe wait!" Cole shouted, as she went down in the elevator. He morphed away just before hitting the elevator door, and re-appeared on the stairs, running as fast as he could down to the lobby before she left the building. "See! I don't even use my powers anymore, and you think I haven't changed?" He told her, catching up with her and acting out of breath. "Why did you really come to see me Phoebe?" He asked, now blocking her path out of the building.
She wasn't going to lie to him or herself but it was obvious from the look she had given him and the pleasant surprise she got when seeing Cole was still around. Maybe it wasn't such a bad thing after all, but in all fairness she had no idea why she was here. "It's like I said... I heard you had gone and I had to see for myself. I don't know why." She smiled at him, and after a pause it hit home she was being dragged slowly in to his world once more. "I better go, my sister's will be wondering where I am."
Cole didn't want to push things quickly, he was smart enough to know if he tried talking his former lover in to staying with him she'd bolt off and he'd probably never see her again. "Well to put your mind at ease, I'll tell you I'm still not going anywhere."
"Right..." Phoebe simply replied, desperately wanting to leave.
"BELTHAZOR!!" A deep and loud booming voice shouted.
Both Cole & Phoebe turned around to see Lana standing before them. The voice sounded familiar to Cole, obviously it didn't sound like Lana but the voice still rang a familiar tune to the demonic hero.
"She's possessed." Phoebe said, not even having to think for a moment.
"You can't escape me that easy Belthazor, no-one can!" From the palm of her hand, Lana shot out a bunch of flames.
Cole had to act quickly and pushed his beloved Phoebe away from danger, holding out his hand and deflecting the fire, causing it to ricochet off his hand and incinerate part of the ceiling on impact. "Oh... That's gonna cost me!" He said thinking aloud and cringing. He looked to Lana who was already preparing another fireball. Cole quickly waved his right hand, causing her to fly backwards in to the open elevator. He pointed at the elevator doors and watched them close. "Won't hold her for long."
Phoebe got up from the floor and dusted off her clothes. "We can't stay here." She told Cole hurriedly, as she started to back off for the exit from the foyer.
"I can't leave her, that thing inside her... I need to know what it is."
"For gods sakes Cole! I think she's established she wants to kill you, and unless you wanna kill her we HAVE to go!" Phoebe was getting impatient with her former lover, he was still the thick headed action man that risked his life for her time and again, and as much as it annoyed her - it was strangely one of the many thing she used to love about him.
The elevator doors opened and a red eyed Lana stepped out, fireballs in each hand she launched them not at Cole, but Phoebe whom she knew couldn't deflect it. Cole by now, was smack dab in the middle of the foyer, with the elevator doors in front of him, and Phoebe behind him, by the exit from the building. Both fireballs passed by Cole and headed for Phoebe, Cole quickly turned to face Phoebe and vanished, re-appearing in front of the fireballs he held Phoebe close to him and felt the fireballs hit him in the back with some venom.
Phoebe stopped him from collapsing from the pain, "Stay with me!" The worried Wiccan told him, holding him up.
"I can't be killed remember." Cole told his one and only, breathing deeply. "Just a little winded..." He turned his head to see Lana floating up to the ceiling, draining the electricity from the lights.
"Lana can't generate fireballs, few demons can, whatever is controlling her is using it's own power along with hers."
"Meaning what?" Phoebe asked, still anxious to leave.
"We run!" He replied, taking her hand and fleeing the building.
