Part Six
In the underworld, Tyne is still wearing Lana's body and watching on as the twins stand before him. At that moment, the cave shakes and a bolt of lightening strikes him off the throne. Cole appears as the twins are quick to turn and fire energy bolts. Cole is quick to deflect them and dive out of the way of more oncoming bolts. From the floor, he takes out two athames; his hands glow and the athames light on fire as Cole throws them directly at the twins killing them on impact.
"Nice trick my liege, what's next?" A familiar female voice asks.
Cole sees a ghostly version of the Seer as he gets to his feet. She is standing by Tyne's throne. "This is all you got Tyne?" He simply asks the new Source, seemingly unfazed by seeing someone long since dead.
"It's enough." He tells Cole, grinning devilishly as he snaps his fingers.
Cole, not sure what to do next looks to the cave entrance as demons in hooded robes appear. A magical cage suddenly appears around him, he sighs punching at it. "Can't believe I fell for that one."
The new Source beckons in the hooded demons that start to chant as do the Seer and Source.
"No point in fighting it Cole, you know you're powers are useless now. I'm here to oversee your vanquish." The Seer tells him.
Cole cries out and sets on fire, eventually disintegrating to nothingness.
The Seer looks at her new master and grins, "See, I told you he was weaknesses just like any other."
"Any other?" Tyne asks, sitting back on his throne.
"You are more than any other my liege; you are the Source of all Evil – a god."
"If you were not already dead I would turn you in to a worm. I have not forgotten your treachery two hundred years ago."
"The other one was weak, easily manipulated. You would have done the same had you been in my position – he needed more me far more than you would have. Just like Cole did afterwards. Look at you now, beyond a Source no-one can match your power!"
Tyne waves a hand and the Seer is gone. Suddenly, he snaps his head towards the cage Cole was trapped in moments earlier as he begins to reform in to his human shape. The cage explodes and Cole finally reappears. "Nice try Tyne, you're smarter than I thought."
Tyne steps off his throne, with Cole one hundred yards directly in front. "It ends tonight." Cole tells him.
"Yes, it does." Tyne replies. "Guess what else I can do?" Tyne smiles and steps forward, the body of Lana collapses and reveals the real body of Tyne standing behind. "Got my body back, your friend is dead. When you see her, tell her thanks for the ride. You are going to die Belthazor, that's why my demons are just going to watch."
Cole closed his eyes and moment and shook his head, feeling guilty that he couldn't help his tragic friend. "You got that right." Waving his hand a wall of fire appears in front of the demons leaving the two invincible demons to fight alone. They run towards each other and trade punches, Cole connecting first followed by Tyne. As they continue punching Cole is able to block and get in some kicks as does Tyne, both always cancelling the other out. Finally, they hit each other so hard they fly back in opposite from each other.
Cole gets to his feet quickly and fires off a round of energy bolts, Tyne is able to deflect some but there are too many and one strikes his chest knocking him through the wall beyond the throne.
The throne starts to wobble and then it comes loose flying at Cole and connecting speedily in his face, easily knocking him backwards and to the ground. He nursed his face whilst laying on the floor a moment, it hurt and hurt bad but he couldn't afford to be in pain right now – it was nothing new and he go to his feet, wiping away the blood from his mouth and watching Tyne appear through the broken wall an energy bolt knocked him through moments ago. "You're getting on my nerves." Tyne told him, waving at the wall of fire and making part of it set on his enemy.
Cole flung his arms about and got rid of the fire illuminating him; his overalls he acquired from the demon dimension he had met Tyne in were now in bits as he ripped the top of them away, wearing only a white vest and his plane dark blue pants. The two demons charged once more and this time a huge explosion rattled the cave on their collision as they hovered and traded punches once more. Tyne gritted his teeth and gripped his hands around the neck of his counterpart whilst pushing him in the direction of the wall opposite the broken throne room picking up speed all the time. The two crashed through the wall and fell to the floor; Cole getting the worst of the impact yet Tyne was the one now laying underneath the ruins of the wall. Hurting from the impact, Cole on his knees spat out more blood and staggered to his feet swaying side to side a little but managing to hold his balance. He pulled away the bricks looking to continue his fight with his nemesis, he caught a glimpse of him and pulled away all the bricks in his way but Tyne was quick to flame out and re-appear behind Cole. A wave of his hand and Cole was sent back through the wall – landing on the floor.
Tyne flamed in to the room and sighed, "You're weak Belthazor, for decades you were worshiped and feared – is it only I that can see through you? A high level demon respected enough to see the scarring I left across the face of my old adversary! Had I of reigned as the rightful ruler of the Underworld you would have been swatted years before you fell for a Witch. That's right, I know everything about you Belthazor – the one demon supposedly standing in my way of bringing darkness to the world. And it is you I take the reigns of the Source from?"
"Do you ever stop to listen to yourself?"
Tyne turns to see the one and only Phoebe standing before him, potion in hand she first levitates and connects a kick in his face, following it up by smashing her potion by his feet and watching as the smoke consumes him. He screams and the when the smoke fades he has gone. She is quick to rush to Cole, helping him up. "Are you okay?" She asks, holding him by his arm.
Cole shakes off cobwebs and nods, "What are you doing here?"
"Did a spell to bring me here – it saved your ass." She smartly replies.
"You shouldn't be here Phoebe, when he comes back he'll kill you." He tells her, getting his breath back by bending over with his hands on his knees.
"What makes you so sure he'll be back? That wasn't a vanquish, it was a potion sending him to the demon wastelands where that creature thing will kill him. He's a goner – not like he can-"
Tyne flames back on to the room, looking mighty pissed.
"Flame back..." Phoebe finishes.
"So you're one of the descendants of the Halliwell family. Haven't killed a witch for ten minutes, haven't ever killed a Halliwell witch."
Phoebe backed away and Cole stood in front of her, "You're not gonna start now."
"Let's kill the son of a bitch." Another voice added, stepping by Cole and Phoebe's side. They both look to see the voice belonged to Lana. "Takes a bit more than procession to kill a demonic witch." She tells them all.
Cole smiles at the sight of his friend still being alive, "Go back with Phoebe Lana, he'll kill you both."
"He can't take us all..." She told him.
"As interesting that would be Lana, you two are gone." Cole told, barking the orders.
"Define 'interesting.'" Lana asked, forming an energy bolt.
Phoebe watched on, "Oh god, oh god, we're all gonna die?" She suggested calmly.
"If I have to worry about you and fight - then yeah." Cole told them.
Lana said nothing and threw her energy bolt at Tyne.
Tyne easily deflected it back at her causing Cole to dive and barge both Phoebe and Lana clear. "Go!" He shouted launching a fireball at the ceiling and watching the hanging spikes collapse over Tyne.
"There's nothing you can do Lana, he'll kill us." Phoebe told her, sympathetically placing a hand on her shoulder knowing why she wanted to stay so badly. "We fight because we have to, not because of vengeance- I know that only too well."
The rubble started to shake and Tyne burst through, hovering in the air he formed two energy bolts, one in each hand they began to grow.
Lana, seeing the dangers finally nodded and held on to Phoebe, "Good luck." She told Cole, shimmering out of the Underworld.
Tyne's energy bolts had grown to high voltage by now and he fired them at his adversary. Cole held up his hands and tried to deflect them but they were too powerful and ended up smashing him backwards more three hundred yards. The cave was shaking; rocks and spikes were falling, definitely not capable of sustaining such power. Tyne stood over Cole's body, as the hero laid motionless from the moment the energy bolts had connected with him. "You'll never be able to compete with my power, but at least you're going to die like a demon should – eliminated by his master!"
Cole opened his eyes and kicked Tyne with both feet, knocking him away. "You were never my master Tyne, nor my mentor for that matter." He punched the Source, landing a fight hook to his chin – and then hitting him again with his left once more smashing him in the chin. He waved his hand and Tyne flew backwards in to the wall of fire, coming out of the fire he was forced to remove his ceremonial robes as they were no shared rags. "This fight will go on forever Tyne and you know it, neither of us can be killed – it's pointless continuing. So I challenge your right to the throne – battle me for the power of the Source like you fought for it two hundred years ago."
"So... You're not the choir boy after all Belthazor. Could it be you miss being supreme ruler?"
"Only you stand in my way Tyne... I want the power."
"I accept."
