Guardians
Scene: I didn't really like the ending of "Daddy Dearest". I thought maybe, hey, why don't I make Cole a Guardian instead of an Avitar?(Not the demonic Guardians) I was watching Inu Yasha, where he's the guardian of his father's grave. The gate to the graveyard is in Inu Yasha's eye. So, let's make Cole, the guardian of the gates to a demonic dimension, where there's a powerful evil trapped inside. Ooh, read what happens. Enjoy!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the characters, Cole, Phoebe, Piper, Paige, etc. Don't sue me. I only own this little piece of fanfiction. After maybe the first few paragraphs, which are from the episode, "Daddy Dearest". Oh, whatever similarities there are to the Inu Yasha plot of an episode, then, I don't own that either. Happy! (Oh, side note, the only character that I do own, would be Kara and the demons they summon.) On with the story!
"Ahhh!" Cole screamed before being engulfed by hot flames. The shock that followed knocked Phoebe and her sisters to the ground. As Phoebe stood up tosee if Cole had died, she stared in shock.
"Oh my god" Phoebe uttered.
"That should've worked" Paige said in disbelief.
"Then why didn't it?" Piper asked baffled along with her sisters. When the smoke cleared, Cole was still standing without a scratch on him.
Very different from his surroundings where there was shattered glass and broken wood. Cole was gasping and looked around slowly.
"They knew it wouldn't work" Cole said more to himself then to anyone else as his eyes darted from left to right.
"Who knew it wouldn't work? What are you talking about?" Phoebe asked, afraid.
"You can't vanquish me. Nobody can," Cole stated sadly before turning around towards the balcony.
After a few minutes of standing, staring and glaring, Phoebe, Piper and Paige decided to orb out. That left Cole alone to absorb his recent discovery.
"No!" he yelled as he dropped to his knees in despair. Out of anger, he punched the floor and created a fist-sized hole.
"Arggh!" he yelled out of anger and frustration.
Suddenly, white orbs began to sparkle behind him, and began to form a figure of a man. Cole could feel a powerful magic so he lunged forward and
turned around quickly. When the form was completed, he gasped.
"Da Dad?" he whispered in disbelief and surprise.
"Hello son," Benjamin replied to his son's reaction. He smiled in happiness and sadness. He was glad to see his son in person. But he was so sad that his son had to have so much pain and sadness in his heart.
"Wha What's going on?" Cole asked weakly.
"I don't have much time, so I must explain quickly. The Powers that Be know of the Avitars who are trying to get you on their side," Benjamin said
in a hurried voice.
"Yeah, so what's" Cole started but was cut off.
"What's that got to do with anything? Well, The Powers That Be have something in mind for you that will help everyone. Interested?" Ben asked as he looked at his son curiously.
"Yeah" Cole said simply. He was still shaken up from the fact that he was invincible.
"What do you think of becoming a Guardian?" he proposed.
"Guardian of what?" Cole asked harshly as he got up from the floor and lied down on the couch that hadn't been destroyed.
"The guardian of a demonic dimension. Where there is a powerful evil trapped inside," Ben said as he moved closer to the couch.
"Why not?" Cole answered coldly after a few moments.
"Are you sure? There are very powerful demons that want to release this evil. They've killed the last 6 guardians. We've only been able to retrieve the gate narrowly each time" he explained.
"Sure, it'd be nice to meet someone who could kill me" Cole said sadly.
"Ah, yes. You're failed attempt at suicide" Cole's father said looking around at Cole's penthouse.
"Uh" Cole simply replied as he shrugged his shoulders, and he closed his eyes.
"The initiation is excruciating and very painful "Benjamin warned, with a look of concern streaked across his face.
"Good" Cole said. It seemed that he was determined to answer in one-word sentences.
"Alright. Unfortunately, I have to leave. My time is now up," Benjamin said sadly as he turned away from his son.
"Wait," Cole said getting up quickly.
Benjamin turned around, looking into his son's eyes that mirrored his own. Cole ran to his dad and hugged him fiercely. He began to sob into his
father's shirt. All of a sudden Cole just broke down in his father's arms and just cried. Cole just felt so comfortable in his father's arms, it was like they had a bond. They stayed in that position for a few minutes.
Cole's sobs became sniffles as Ben rubbed his back.
"Shh, shh, shh. It's all right Cole, everything's all right. I know what you've had to go through. I'm sorry I couldn't be there to hold you like I am now" Ben said as he held his son in his arms.
Unknown to them, Paige had orbed in to the next room and was hiding and watching them. The sisters and Leo decided to keep an eye on Cole.
"Oh my gosh. Cole crying. Who is that anyway?" Paige asked herself in a whisper.
"I gotta tell the others" she whispered before orbing out.
Cole buried his face even further into Ben's shirt. He inhaled his father's scent in. Memorizing it. Enjoying it. It was a right smell. He felt at peace.
Soon, Paige had come back with Phoebe and Piper.
"There" Paige said as she pointed at the curled figure of Cole and his father holding him.
"Who's that?" Phoebe asked suspiciously, pointing at Ben. Phoebe was afraid that he maybe some demonic evil that was helping Cole.
"I don't know, let's just watch and see" Piper replied.
"Come on Cole, you got to get up" Ben urged his son.
"Do I have to? I would really rather just stay in you r arms. We haven't really been able to be together for obvious reasons" Cole replied looking up at his father.
"Sorry Cole, but you know I have to go. And you," Ben said, wagging a finger, "have to get ready for the initiation. I don't want you to be permanently scarred emotionally or physically like when you were involved with that Charmed one" Ben said. He didn't like this, Phoebe, who had caused his son so much heartache.
"I've caused him so much pain?! What about me?!" Phoebe said, nearly yelling.
"Son, I don't want anything to happen to you. I couldn't bear it. So if you don't want to become the Guardian, you don't have toâE¦" Ben said, wanting to protect his son.
"It's alright, dad, I've got nothing left, so, I may as well do this" Cole said sighing.
"Alright, now go and prepare. Goodbye Cole" he said preparing to leave.
"Goodbye, father. I love you" Cole said, his eyes filling with tears again.
"I love you too," Ben said as he took his son in one more hug. He then separated from him and walked away. He then faded away like he was never there.
Cole let out a sigh of sadness and turned away too.
"Father?" Phoebe whispered.
"And what does he have to prepare for?" Piper asked.
"Do you want to stay, or go?" Paige asked turning to Phoebe.
"I want to stay here and find out what he's up to" Phoebe said determinedly.
"Alright, Phoebe" Paige replied, turning back to Cole.

"What's that got to do with anything? Well, The Powers That Be have something in mind for you that will help everyone. Interested?" Ben asked as he looked at his son curiously.
