Author's Notes: Wow! I am so sorry readers for the long wait… and such a short chapter! But I have completely lost my muse and the will to write. It just disappeared. So I'm sorry, but this is the best I could do:
Paige and Piper continued to stare at Phoebe, as her expression changed from shock to horror.
"Guys," Phoebe stammered. She stood very still, with her arms held down by her sides, tense with fear.
Phoebe began to visibly shake, as her eyes grew wide.
"Cole," she breathed.
Paige and Piper exchanged looks, but just stood there in silence, confusion spread across their faces.
"He… oh my gosh…." Phoebe raised a quivering hand to her pursed lips. "He… it's him…"
Piper quickly looked behind her, expecting someone to jump out at her from the gloomy shadows behind her. When she didn't see anyone, Piper slowly turned back to Phoebe and Paige.
"Phoebe," Piper questioned. "I don't see anyone…" Piper waved her hands before her, trying to persuade Phoebe to tell her more, so she could figure out what the hell was going on.
Paige's eyes grew wide as Phoebe stumbled over her words, acting like a scared child.
"Piper!" Paige suddenly cried as she grabbed Piper's arm. "It's Cole!... Cole's spirit! It's got to be! I can feel some of his spirit still lingering inside Phoebe. I mean… gosh, I couldn't tell before. But with each invasion, he's getting stronger! It makes sense now!"
Phoebe began to noticeably sway as Paige finished her sentence.
A look of dread swept over Phoebe's face. "I can't believe…." Phoebe yelped with anger, and clenched her fists. "He's gone way too far this time. And he's going to get it, too."
A huge grin crossed Paige's face. "Yeah!" she whooped. "Go Phoebe!"
Both girls turned startled looks on Paige.
Paige raised her arms above her head weakly, realizing that she was a little too excited about the upcoming fight.
"We're going to go kick some demon ass?" Paige tried unconvincingly to get rid of the looks on her sister's faces.
Phoebe tried not to laugh as she walked over to Paige and lightly patted her on the back. She gave her a look of mock pity, and whispered, "It's okay, Paige. It's okay."
Phoebe gasped as a premonition took a hold of her, as her thoughts warped together to create mindless confusion…
Author's Notes: So sorry! I will continue with this story, and hopefully post a chapter soon….
