Disclaimer: I don't own any of these characters at all.so don't sue me.
Sorry this chapter took so long to come out, I just started school again and it's not giving me any free time. Also, thank you for the reviews, the measly amount I got anyway!
"We're never going to find him like this!" Paige said frustrated. The three of them had been searching the area, but so far they hadn't caught a glimpse of Alaskas, or Cole. "Give me a few minutes. Stay right here." Paige said before she orbed out.
"Paige!" Piper yelled. "Where did she go?" She asked Phoebe. Phoebe shrugged. Piper leant against a brick wall and sighed. Seconds later Paige orbed back with a map in her hands. She opened it out an laid it on the ground, then produced a scrying crystal from her pocket. Piper smiled.
"Nice thinking Paige." She said. Paige grinned as she held the crystal above the map and closed her eyes. Almost immediately the crystal forced itself onto a spot on the map. Paige leant forward.
"Looks like he's down there." Paige said picking up the map and running in the general direction of Alaskas' position. Phoebe and Piper jogged after her.
Cole made his way quickly, street after street. He looked back and forth until his eyes landed on the familiar figure. He ran towards Alaskas who seemed to be having an argument with someone. As Cole got closer he recognised the other figure to be the exact replica of Alaskas.
'Another Cyprus' Cole muttered to himself. Not knowing who was who, Cole stopped approaching the pair. One of the figures formed an energy ball in his hand. Cole, knowing the Alaskas was only human, lunged forward and pushed Alaskas out of the way before the energy ball could reach him. Cole stumbled to get up. When he finally did he was knocked off his feet and thrown into a wall as the demon hit him with an energy ball. He sat dazed as the Cyprus morphed into a form of himself (Cole) and slowly walked towards him. He tried to get up, but he couldn't seem to. He glanced down and saw a puddle of blood underneath him. The Cyprus formed a small energy ball in his hand, but stopped as he saw Alaskas running down the alley. He turned and followed him. Alaskas turned the corner only to find a dead end. He fumbled through his pockets to find a shimmering spell, but when he found it the Cyprus simply flicked his wrist and the piece of paper burst into flames. He once again formed an energy ball in his hand as he advanced on Alaskas.
The three women ran around the corner. Piper threw up her hands and froze the scene, with inches to go before the energy ball hit Alaskas. "I don't believe it." Phoebe said slowly, as she saw the figure that threw the energy ball. Cole. "He's evil again."
"You don't know that Phoebe. There must be a reason.." Paige said.
"Why are you defending him? After everything he's done!" Phoebe asked.
"Because you still love him! I don't know why you're so intent on making him evil. Maybe Alaskas attacked him, and he had some powers that he never lost." Paige offered.
"A bit of a long shot Paige." Phoebe said. She reached up and touched Cole's face.
"Does it make it easier to hate me, to stop loving me, if you believe I'm evil?" Phoebe gasped as she saw Cole, another Cole lying on the floor against a wall, surrounded by blood. She realised that it wasn't Cole that had thrown the energy ball.
"Leo!" She shouted as she knelt next to him. She touched the wound gently. "LEO!" She shouted again.
"He can't come Phoebe. Training and all-" Piper said.
"He'll come. He said if it's an emergency he'd come." Phoebe said. "Leo!" She shouted again. She looked down at Cole. "Paige?" Paige looked bewildered.
"I can't Phoebe!" She said.
"Sure you can Paige. You're half whitelighter!" Piper said. Phoebe removed her hand from Cole's wound as Paige attempted to heal him.
"Alaskas...." Cole whispered. Phoebe turned around just as time unfroze and the energy ball collided with Alaskas. Piper tried to freeze the Cyprus again, but failed as he simply shrugged it off.
"We need the power of three!" Piper said.
"What about Cole? He's dying!" Paige shouted. Phoebe ran forward and tripped the Cyprus in an attempt to give Paige enough time to heal Cole.
"Hurry Paige!" Piper yelled observing the fight before her. She picked up a broken pipe from the ground and used it to knock the demon over the head. Paige looked down and sighed with relief as Cole's wound disappeared before her eyes. Cole got up and dived onto the demon, causing the four of then to go crashing to the ground. Paige couldn't help but smile as she watched the ordeal. Phoebe trying to punch the demon, while Piper was hitting it on the head with a pipe to no avail, and finally Cole jumping on top of them, forcing them to the ground. She concealed her laughter as she quickly helped her two sisters up so that they could read the spell Piper pulled from her pocket. They read it out as Cole held the demon down, jumping off him before he burst into flames and disappeared.
"What are you grinning at?" Piper said playfully hitting Paige on the arm.
"Just the three of you tackling a demon. It was hilarious!" Paige said chuckling.
"You could have helped!" Phoebe said dusting herself off.
"And ruin my newly painted nails? Never!" Paige said. "Oh boy.." She said glancing over at Alaskas. She walked over and placed her fingers on his wrist, looking for a pulse. She looked at Piper and shook her head. "He's dead." She said simply.
"I'll call Darryl." Piper said, as she pulled out her cell phone. As she made the call, Phoebe walked over to Cole who was examining the spot where his wound was. He looked up as she walked up to him.
"She did a pretty good job." Cole said, indicating to Paige.
"Yeah. Listen, Cole...." She was interrupted by Piper.
"We have to go. The police are going to arrive any minute." She said. Phoebe inhaled deeply. She could talk to Cole later. They had to get out of here. Paige grabbed Piper and Phoebe's hands and raised her eyebrows at Cole, as if asking if he would like to tag along.
"I should get home." Cole said. He stole a quick glance at Phoebe before walking away. Paige shrugged and orbed her sisters back to the manor.
One more chapter to go, I guess...Review, please?
