Chapter Five

"Cole!" Phoebe screamed out. Hanging on the wall was Cole beaten. He had heard her. He attempted to look towards her but he couldn't lift his head. Dirt covered his face, His hair was much longer and he had facial hair. Phoebe Tripped the Avatar and flew up running towards Cole. She reached him, She levitated and she looked for how to open them. Thankfully it was easy. She pushed two realize buttons. Cole fell to the ground with a thud. Phoebe went down. She kneeled down. Demons ran through the door. Energy balls bared. She looked down at Cole next to her. She could tell he was trying to shimmer them out but he had no energy. (Note: The things holding him to the wall wouldn't let him shimmer but now that he's out of them he can) Phoebe stood up raising her hands hoping that this wasn't her end. A few demons shifted wondering if they should throw there energy ball. A few pulled back their arms to throw. Phoebe cringed as they flew towards her. As they were about to hit. Cole jumped up in front of them. Of course being indestructible he was only in pain but not dead, like Phoebe would have been. He tried to stay up but with it even being hard to stand before the energy balls had hit him, he fell to the ground slowly. "Cole," She whispered knelling down with him. She cradled him. The demons weren't paying attention. Someone else had entered the room. A man with salty hair, He had halted the demons. He slowly walked over to Phoebe who had been too preoccupied to notice his arrival. "Ah, you must be Phoebe, the witch he saved, the one he loves," The man Cackled, "He's evil saving you goes against what evil is for, this is his fait. Besides what do you care if he suffers? He's just your marriage from hell, or so you said," Phoebe looked up at the man, "Who are you?" "Me? My name is Eyad, I am the head of the Avatar," He smiling, "Cole is going to stay here with us, even you have to admit he earned it," "He didn't earn this," Phoebe said holding him tightly, "He saved me even though he knew this was coming," Eyad chuckled, "I guess he really cares about you, but for such a. Heroic act it sure did it fail in the end," Phoebe raised an eyebrow, "If your saying your going to kill me, I think you mistaken," "What makes you think that?" Eyad Smiled. "I'm a witch," Phoebe smiled, She chanted something then her and Cole disappeared. (I'm not good with rhyming)

Phoebe and Cole appeared in the basement of the Haliwell home. At that moment the doorbell rang. "I'll be right back Cole," Phoebe told him. She stood up and walked up the stairs. Before she closed the door to the basement she looked down at Cole. He just lay there unable to move. She closed the door and walked to the Foyer. The doorbell rang again. "I'm coming!" Phoebe yelled. She opened the door, "Jason? What are you doing here?" Jason smiled, "Phoebe, I'm back for good," Phoebe looked at him amazed, "What?" "It's true I'm here to stay. So do I get a hug or a kiss?" Jason asked. "Oh! Of course," Phoebe smiled hugging and kissing him, "I'm so excited, were going to have a future!" "I sure hope so," Jason smiled, " So can I come in?" "Oh. um," Phoebe started the picture of Cole flashing in her mind, "I'm so excited your back and I would kill to spend time with you right now. but there kind of a something that's going on. Maybe later, and I know I sound like a total idiot telling you that can't when you've just gotten here. But I'm really busy, so will you forgive me?" "I understand, but can you have dinner with me tonight? Maybe seven?" Jason asked. "I think I can manage that," Phoebe smirked, "see you then," "Okay, well bye," He said giving her a kiss goodbye, he left.

Phoebe sighed. She turned and walked back to the basement. Cole still lay there he was still motionless. She almost smiled, she knew he would wake up and she would be able to tell him that she was with him and she would take care of him. She walked over to the corner of the room. She pulled out a mattress and lay it over in the corner of the room by the stairs. She grabbed some sheets and covered the mattress. "Phoebe?" He said in a scratchy voice. She walked too him and took his hand, "I'm here Cole," "Why? Why did you come for me?" He asked "Because you always came when I needed you the most even when I thought you were dead," Phoebe told him. Tears rolled down his cheeks, "God, Phoebe I missed you so much," "Can you move at all?" Phoebe asked. "I don't know I haven't tried," he admitted. "Well lets try to get you to stand up," Phoebe said standing.

She held out her hand and Cole grabbed it. He managed to push him self off the ground and stand. At first he was wobbly he took a few steps.
