All the important info was covered in chpts 1-3

I want to thank Julie for all her help with this story. You're been a great help with my Cole & Phoebe stories.

Chpt. 12

"No! You can't do this!" Phoebe cried, grabbing Cole's jacket lapels.

"Phoebe..."

"Don't you understand! You could die! I can't lose you again!"

"If we don't vanquish Samuel now, we will be spending the rest of our lives, looking over our shoulders!" Cole shouted, stalking away.

Phoebe slowly walked over to Cole and put her arms around his waist. She laid her head on his back and sighed. Cole placed his hands on hers.

"I'm sorry. It's just so frustrating. I don't want you or your family hurt, again, because of me. I caused you too much pain already. I'm still surprised you want me back."

"I love you." She simply said.

"Maybe I should handle this alone."

Phoebe froze. She felt Cole was pushing her away.

"Why?" she whispered.

When Cole turned around, he saw that Phoebe was crying. He reached out and wiped a tear away.

"Oh honey, please don't cry. I just want to keep you safe. I love you. Your love kept me alive in the Wasteland. All I wanted was to be with you."

Phoebe placed her hands on Cole's face.

"I'm so sorry I hurt you. I was so scared of being evil, again, so I blamed you. I'm sorry I didn't help you."

Cole looked at Phoebe. He couldn't believe how important she had become, to him. He'd do anything, for her.

"I tried so hard, to stop the Source, but he was too powerful."
