"Last Battle."

#~#~#~#~#~#

Cole and Phoebe were both laying in bed, snuggled up in each other's arms.

"Are you okay baby?" Phoebe asked.

"Yes, I am, don't worry about me." Cole replied.

"I do worry about you." She stated.

"Are you sure what we did didn't hurt you?" She asked.

Cole giggled which caused Phoebe to look up at him.

"Are you listening to yourself honey? We just made love, how can it be hurting me?" He said.

"You know that's not what I meant." She replied seriously.

"I will always remember what Brad made me see, but I put it aside when I'm with you, coz I know I'm not hurting you and that you feel good with me, in my arms." Cole explained.

"That's pretty right, I love being with you when you do wonderful things to my body." Phoebe said as she blushed.

"Baby you're blushing." Cole commented and with that she blushed even more and giggled. He started to tickle her and she begged him to stop while laughing a lot. They started to struggle and Cole ended up sitting on top of her, holding her hands on the top of her head. He bent down to kiss her. As usual, he was looking really sexy wearing only his boxer, she liked to see him like this.

"That was to easy." He stated, mentioning their little fight.

He smiled, let go her hands and kissed her passionately and then, he wrapped his arms around her tightly. Phoebe took the advantage of it to trick him. She rolled over and it was now her turn to be sitting on top of him, holding his hands.

"Way too easy." She said with a victorious smile.

"If you want to be on top, all you have to do is ask." He said mockingly.

"Now what Mr Turner?" She asked seductively, ignoring his last comment.

"I could use my powers on you, but that would ruin this sexy nightown you're wearing." He said, looking at her hungrily.

"Then all I have to do is to kiss you to death." She stated.

He smiled in replied and she let him go and leaned down to kiss him passionately.

This moment was feeling so right, it was so good for Phoebe to be in Cole's strong arms, she wanted things to be this way, she wanted to be happy with Cole and their family, she was sick tired of Brad's ticks, she just wanted a normal witch life, with a new demon each week, not the same one coming over and over again to hurt her.

A moment later, they pulled apart and Phoebe said: "I'm ready Cole, I want to kill him as soon as possible, today would be good, I'm so tired of waiting for the next trick Brad wants to play on us."

"You want to do it today?" Cole asked, to be sure she was ready.

"Yeah, while the kids will be at school, we'll have time to concentrate on killing him." She said.

"Okay, I'm going to call sick at work and then I'll call Paige to tell her." He replied.

"I love you honey." He said, kissing her.

He kissed her belly and added: "You too baby."

He got up from the bed and walked in the living room and dialed his office number. Phoebe got up as well and went in the kids room to wake them up, it was going to be a long day, but after that, everything will be over and they will be happy ever after.

#~#~#~#~#~#

"Okay, is everybody ready?" Piper asked as Leo, Paige, Phoebe, Cole and herself were standing in the attic, ready to summon Brad.

"Cole, I think this is yours." Paige said to her brother in law before handing him the athame which had been blessed by the Charmed Ones.

"I'll do it." Phoebe said, taking the athame from Cole.

"Honey, I don't think it..." Cole told her but she cut him off and repeated: "I'll do it."

"Just stab him in the heart and he'll be dead, I hope he's going to suffer a lot, did you made it painful Paige?" Piper asked.

"I did my best." The little sister replied.

Cole who was standing behind Phoebe, wrapped his arms around her and whispered: "He'll do and say all he can to hurt you, but remember I'm here. I love you."

She turned in his arms and kissed him.

"I love you too, now let's kill him and go back to our normal life." She said.

"Prue!" Piper shouted.

Prue orbed in and said: "The kids are okay, no demons around, school is almost over, I'm going to orb them up there with Mom and Grams."

In this battle, it was Prue's job to watch the kids because they all had thought that Brad could try to hurt them by sending demons after them so Will, Tom and Liz will be visiting the Elders' world and meeting the rest of the family.

"Good." Cole said.

"Let's begin." Piper stated.

"Good luck." Prue told them before orbing away to take care of the kids.

Cole noticed that Phoebe was too tensed and he said: "Wait."

Everybody looked at him and said: "I need to talk to Phoebe first."

He grabbed her hand and shimmered in their room, in their house.

"Cole, what are you doing?" She asked, she was getting a little angry.

"You're not okay, I can feel you're tensed, I don't want to force you to do anything." He said.

"Of course I'm tensed Cole, I'm going to confront my worst fear, I'm deadly scared but I want to do it coz I can't stand to live in this nightmare anymore. I want our babies to grow up peacefully without the fear of being attacked by an insane man who wants to kill their parents." She said.

Cole could perfectly understand what she meant and what she was feeling, but still he didn't like the way Phoebe was feeling.

He smiled at her, even if it wasn't the best moment to smile and to seduce her with this so special smile of him, she couldn't help but smiled in return.

"What?" She asked.

"I wanna kiss you." He simply replied, his plan was working, he was distracting her from the battle waiting for them.

"Me too." She said as she approached him slowly.

They shared one more smile before kissing passionately.

Cole slid his hands under her blouse, as he liked to do and caressed her sides until he felt her relaxing. And she relaxed so much that she started to unbutton his shirt which fell on the floor immediately. He was so hot standing there, shirtless. She ran her hands to his chest while kissing.

"Phoebe." Cole mumbled.

"I know." She replied, well knowing that they had to stop it before it ends up to bed.

They stopped kissing and Phoebe said: "Just a little more please... for me, you're so hot baby."

"How can I resist to that?" He asked.

"You're not supposed to." She said as she kissed him passionately, not giving him the chance to argue more.

After a while, she pulled apart and said: "Better go back to the manor before things get to hot."

They smiled and Cole said: "Okay." And he pulled his shirt back on and shimmered them back in the attic.

Phoebe was aware of what Cole just did, she knew he was doing everything to make her feel better and he was doing it pretty well, she was feeling less tensed and ready for the battle.

When they appeared in the attic, Piper rolled her eyes and said: "Looks like talking turned out into kissing."

Phoebe giggled as she indicated to Cole that he had lipstick on his lips which caused him to blush.

"Okay, now that making out time is over, let's kill this bastard." Paige stated.

Phoebe took a huge breath and tightened her grip on the athame. Cole patted her back to make her feel that he was right here next to her.

Prue suddenly orbed in and said: "Wait."

"What's wrong?" Phoebe asked, fearing that something could be wrong with the kids.

"It's Liz, she wants to see Cole and I can't calm her." Prue explained.

"Can you orb her here and I'll talk to her, I can't shimmer up there." Cole said.

Prue nodded and orbed away and some seconds later, she orbed back in with Liz in her arms. When Prue put the little girl on the floor, she immediately ran towards her father who had knelt down on the floor and hugged her.

"What's wrong baby?" He asked as he noticed her eyes were wet with tears.

"I'm scared that the bad guy can hurt you or Mommy." She said.

"You don't have to worry honey, he won't hurt us." Cole said to comfort her.

He kissed her on the cheek and said: "Now give Mommy a kiss and go back up there with Auntie Prue and tonight we'll all go out and have party."

Liz eyes widened and she asked: "We won't have to go to bed at 9?"

"Nope baby." Cole replied with a smile.

"Okay, I'll fell asleep in your arms while dancing then." The little girl stated and everydoby smiled at her comment.

"Okay." Cole said and he kissed his daughter on the cheek one more time.

Phoebe kissed her as well and Liz walked towards her Auntie Prue and they both orbed back up there with her cousin and her brother.

"Does anybody as to do or say something before we start?" Piper asked.

"Just one more kiss." Cole said with a smile as he gave Phoebe a peck on the lips.

Paige and Piper both rolled their eyes and Leo smiled.

"Ready." Cole said.

"When everything will be over, I want us to have a hot bath and to make love all night long." Phoebe whispered to Cole's ear.

"Phoebe!" Piper exclaimed, she hadn't understood what her sister had whispered but she really wanted to kill Brad now.

Phoebe smiled from ear to ear and said: "Sorry, I'm ready."

They all looked at the paper where the spell to sumon Brad was writting but before they started to chant it, he appeared in front of them.

"Waiting for me?" He asked with a smile.

Cole felt Phoebe tensed once again so he grabbed her hand and gently stoked it.

Piper tried to freeze Brad but he deflected it and used his powers to throw her and Leo against the wall, which they hit hard and fell unconscious on the floor.

Brad smiled with satisfaction and said: "Never really liked you Paige."

And he did the same thing to her.

"You son of a bitch." Phoebe exclaimed but it caused Brad to smile even more.

"You weren't calling me that way when I was on top of you." He said.

This comment made Cole furious, he let Phoebe's hand go and started to fight with Brad.

Phoebe was paralized, she couldn't move and it was even worst now that Cole wasn't at her side. She watched Cole and Brad fighting as tears were coming to her eyes.

Brad was really strong, to Cole's surprise, Belthazor could have for sure killed him in a matter of time but he didn't want to use his demonic side, not in front of Phoebe, not after what happened the last time she saw this horrible part of the man she loved.

"You know what I'd enjoy the most?" Brad said while fighting.

As Cole didn't answer, not wanting to enter this insane game, Brad keep talking.

"When I raped her, she was screaming your name, calling you, begging, crying for you to come and save her, but you never came." He said with a bright smile.

Cole immediately froze, the guilty was coming back. He looked at Phoebe who had also heard what the ex-whitelighter had said.

A knife appeared in Brad's hand and he stabbed Cole in the ribs and used his powers to send him across the room just as he had done with Piper, Leo and Paige. Cole fell unconscious on the floor.

Brad turned towards Phoebe, smiling at her and said: "Now it's just the two of us baby."

Phoebe gave a quick look around her and seeing Cole bleeding made her so angry that all her fears went by the window and she started to fight against that bastard. She wanted to kill him as fast as possible so that she could help Cole, she knew Piper and the others were going to be fine, but Cole's case was another thing, he was bleeding a lot. She threw herself in the battle, kicking, hitting, until she could gave her final shoot, stabbing him with the athame. Brad was impressed by her force and the rage she was putting into her actions to try to hurt him. She had hit him three times already and it had been really hurting, his nose was already bleeding because of a high kick. He stumbled back and his smile was gone, to Phoebe's happiness. She thought that it was now time to kill that bastard and to have a nice and happy life with her family. She hit him once again and raised her hands in the air, holding the athame tight and she stabbed him in the heart. She stumbled back, watching him. He was smiling almost laughing and he bursted into flammes. Suddenly, she felt an awful pain in the stomach and when she looked down, she realized that Brad had stabbed her in the belly. She contiuned to stumble until she hit the wall and fell on the floor next to Cole. Cole woke up immediately and realized what was happening.

"Cole." Phoebe said.

"Shh, don't talk, it's going to be okay." He said. He sounded calm but he was panicked, he didn't know what to do.

"It... hurts." Phoebe said.

He kissed her on the forehead and yelled: "Paige, Leo!!"

"Scared." Phoebe mumbled as she slowly closed her eyes.

"Phoebe, honey you have to stay with me. Paige!!!! Leo!!!" He said.

Both of the two whitelighters were still laying unconscious on the floor.

"I'll take you to the hospital." He decided and with that he wrapped his arms around her and shimmered to the hospital.
