Chapter 8: Fight club
It was as if they stood like that for hours, days even. The words he softly whispered never got old; Phoebe realized she could listen to them forever. As he held her, she couldn't help but feel happier than she had felt for almost three years. No one, not Jason, not Les, not even Drake had made her feel like Cole was right now and no one ever would. They were soul mates after all; it was meant to be like this. She could literally feel the love radiating off of him and it made her tears subside and she pulled her head away from his chest, looking up at him. He smiled softly back at her, reaching out to gently wipe away a tear from her flushed cheek. The gesture caused Phoebe to close her eyes and smile, enjoying his touch.
"Demons!"
The yell, accompanied by the scream of a child immediately snapped Phoebe's head back and she pulled away from Cole.
"Paige, Phoebe, get your asses up here now!"
"Piper…" Phoebe's eyes widened and she dashed towards the bedroom door, flinging it open and running upstairs to the attic.
"Phoebe wait!" Cole called after her and he too darted out of the door.
As Phoebe reached the attic she gasped in horror, her hand flying to her mouth. The scene was utter, hopeless destruction. Parts of the room were on fire and in the middle of it all, Piper and Leo were desperately trying to fight off a hoard of demons, Piper with her powers, Leo with as many vanquishing potions as he could lay his hands on. The fire seemed to be coming from the various fire-throwing demons and, of course, Piper's explosions. It seemed however that their attempts at vanquishing the demons were useless, as the potions were either too weak to do any permanent damage or they were partially immune to Piper's powers.
"Phoebe the boys!"
The yell snapped Phoebe out of her shock and she looked desperately around the room, her eyes finally resting on the blue ball of Wyatt's shield; a screaming Wyatt and a crying Chris cocooned inside. They were safe but there was no way Phoebe could get to them, there were just too many demons in her way.
"Oh my god…" Cole stopped when he got to the attic door and his eyes widened. His voice however seemed to attract attention to the pair and instantly several fireballs were thrown at them. Each threw themselves to the side, Cole rolling behind a dollhouse and Phoebe behind a sofa.
"Phoebe damn it get the boys out of here!" Piper's yell was frantic and as a fireball hit her in the shoulder, she stumbled back into Leo who pulled her behind an overturned bookcase, crouching behind it also. Blue orbs momentarily distracted the demons however as Paige orbed into the attic, only to orb straight back out again as a barrage of fire was thrown at her. She orbed in beside Phoebe, ducking behind the sofa.
"Did I miss a convention or something?" she hissed, wincing as fireballs ignited a cushion on their hiding place.
"We need to create a distraction," she hissed back, "So Leo can get the boys out of here!" Paige nodded and orbed out, materializing by the Book.
"Hey demons!" she said, "Fireball!" Directing their fireballs back at them, she vanquished three. They all turned to look at her, giving Phoebe enough time to retrieve an athame from under the sofa and throw it at the demon nearest to her.
"Leo, go!" Piper yelled and without having to be asked twice, Leo darted out from behind the bookcase with Piper's explosions to cover him and dived into Wyatt's shield, picking up his two boys.
"Shh I'm here little buddy," he said, trying to calm a hysterical Wyatt, "We need to go down to the nursery." When Wyatt didn't orb, Leo looked up towards the attic door then back at the battling witches. Deciding that the demons were distracted enough, he made a run for the door, the motion making Wyatt's shield go down.
"Leo, no!" The yell from Phoebe was heard too late and the force of three fireballs hitting him in the back caused Leo to fall forward, the boys flying out of his arms. Piper screamed and tried in vain to freeze them, only to get a fireball to the chest in her distraction, sending her crashing back into the bookcase. Wyatt, seeming to have calmed a little, disappeared in blue orbs and reappeared standing upright beside his unmoving father. Baby Chris however, sailed through the air heading dangerously towards the open door and stairway.
"No!" Cole leapt out from behind the dollhouse and intercepted the youngest Halliwell, crashing to the floor beside Leo and yelling out in pain as he landed on his shoulder, the baby safe in his arms.
"Wyatt, down to the nursery now!" Phoebe yelled, ducking out of the way of a fireball which thankfully Paige then redirected, "Take Chris, Daddy and the nice man with you!" The little blond haired boy, still sniffling and with his hand already on his father's head, reached out to touch Cole, the four of them then disappearing in a flurry of orbs no matter how many fireballs tried to stop them. Phoebe sighed in relief; she just hoped to God Leo was still breathing. It was then she remembered. "Piper!" Running to her big sister as Paige redirected fireballs left, right and centre, she glanced up momentarily and gasped. The demon that had attacked them before just after Cole had appeared was standing over Piper. It however then seemed to morph into the figure of a hooded woman and this action alone threw Phoebe into a premonition, one she had had many times before.
Attic. Sisters. Hooded Figure. Fire. Death... Fire. Darkness. Chanting. Hooded figures.
Phoebe's eyes snapped open again and the woman smirked. "No…" said Phoebe, "But…but it's the wrong way around…I don't-" She was cut off by the hooded woman launching a fireball at her, propelling her backwards into the sofa she had previously hidden behind and sending her toppling over it. The woman-the Seer-then fazed out, fazing back in beside an unconscious Phoebe. She bent down and waved her hand over the Halliwell, making her disappear. The Seer then lay down exactly where Phoebe had been, morphing into the middle sister and closing her eyes, trying not to smirk.
Am I finally getting to the point? I think I might be! Remember, please review!
