Chapter five
It was late at night and Phoebe was still awake. She couldn't get the images of her daughter's petrified little face out of her head when she was told that it was bedtime; how afraid her daughter was. She had checked on Prestyn so many times since she had been put to bed and couldn't help but cringe at the promise she made her daughter before sleeping for it was one she had no control over. She watched as her daughter's innocent little face scrunched into terror every so often before finally allowing herself to overcome her dream and relax into her sleep.
Phoebe kept an ear out for her daughter and slept lightly – something which had become a part of her life five years ago since her daughter was born. Phoebe put her head on her pillow and closed her eyes, trying desperately to fall asleep and have a decent night's sleep so she would be able to fight whatever was ahead of her.
--------
An ear-piercing shriek echoed through Halliwell manor followed by crashing of furniture and thumping. It rang through Phoebe's ears. She threw the covers off the bed, leapt to her feet and bolted to the children's room where Piper and Paige already were. Piper was out cold and Paige was in battle with the intruder.
Phoebe felt herself paralyzed at the sight of the figure in the room. "Cole," she mumbled. Though her body had other plansshe ignored them andran and jumped on to his back to buy the kids some time. Cole dropped Paige after having her by the throat and she, too, was knocked unconscious. Cole flipped Phoebe over his head and then picked her up by the throat with a fireball at the ready. He threw her against the wall; she was semi-conscious. He heaved the fireball at Phoebe.
"Momma!" Prestyn screeched.
Cole stopped the fireball just inches away from Phoebe and turned to Wyatt who had his force-field up around Prestyn, Chris and himself.
"Let down the force-field you little shit, or I'll kill her! You really want a death on your conscience at your age?"
Scared out of hit wits, Wyatt began to let his guard down and lower the force-field when Phoebe stopped him.
"Wyatt, no! Keep it up!" Phoebe slurred.
"Let it down Wyatt or she's dead!" Cole yelled letting the fireball inch closer to Phoebe.
"Let it down Wyatt!" Prestyn screeched. Prestyn got set to run out of the force field but Chris pulled her back and kept a strong hold of her.
"You need to stay here! You're mommy will be safe!" Chris told her.
"Momma! Momma!" Prestyn cried fighting against Chris' grasp. "Put it down, Wyatt! Put it down!" Tears were running down her little face and terror was in her eyes at witnessing the event.
"Keep it up!" Phoebe cried.
Paige stirred and orbed over to the kids.
"Don't even think about it, Paige!" He hurled a fireball at Paige and stopped it inches away from her as well. "In case you hadn't noticed, I'm kind of in control here." Paige let her guard down. "That goes for you too, Piper. No funny stuff… not that it would work on me anyway – I'm pretty much immune to the three of you."
"You're here for me! What do you wantwith her?" Phoebe asked.
Cole chuckled. "You're not that dumb that you can't figure it out are you?" Phoebe remained silent and Cole sighed. "You really are…" he sneered.
"Cole, she's our child. Yours and mine… spare her, just take me. That's what you're here for… for me."
"And for her."
"You're going to kill your own daughter? Cole, she is your daughter!"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa – who said anything about killing her? I'm not going to kill her."
"Just turn her evil!" Paige snapped.
Cole threw the fireball at her and it hit her square in the chest.
"Paige!" Phoebe and Piper yelled.
"Naughty, naughty, Paige…" Cole mused. "I really didn't want to have to do that in front of the kids," he said in mock sorrow.
"So why did you? You didn't have to." Phoebe took a sideways glance at the kids to make sure they were okay after what they had just witnessed. Chris was crying, Wyatt looked angry and ready to kill his former uncle, and Prestyn was in shock and didn't know what to do. Phoebe gulped. "Is she dead?" She quivered.
"If someone doesn't get to her in time she will be."
"Le –" Cole covered Phoebe's mouth.
"Nuh, uh, uh. I want him to heal her," he said pointing over to Wyatt. "Do it," he ordered Wyatt.
"Heal Aunt Paige, Wyatt."
"I can't do that unless I take the field down."
"Do it or Phoebe's next, and this one will kill her instantly," he sneered.
"Let us call Leo. I'll tell him to heal her and leave," Piper finally found her backbone.
"You don't understand. I want the girl. So either Paige and Phoebe die, or I can just take her with no problems."
"I'll swap you!" Wyatt yelled.
Everyone looked at him.
"There's a good boy. Let your force-field down and I'll let your Aunt Phoebe go."
"Wyatt, what are you doing!" Phoebe yelled at her nephew.
Wyatt ignored his aunt and shook his head at Cole. "Let Aunt Phoebe go and I'll let the field down."
"You don't call the shots here kid, I do!" Cole bellowed making everyone jump.
Wyattreluctantly gave in to his former demonic uncle and let his field down, grabbing his brother's hand and his cousin's hand.
"Wyatt, no!"
As Cole let the fireball down and started to advance on the children, they cowered back into Paige. Cole was now inches away from them. When it seemed that Cole could reach for Prestyn Wyatt orbed out, taking Chris, Prestyn and Paige with him.
Phoebe felt relief rush over her body. "Good boy!" She hissed. "Oh good boy."
Cole sniffed the air as though picking up on the scent of the orbs and shimmered out.
"Oh God!" Phoebe yelled as she heard shrieks erupt from the attic. She pulled her sister up by the hand and together they bolted up to the attic.
By the time the two got up into the attic, it was too late. Carnage was what was left behind.
"Wyatt!" Piper screamed. She bolted and knelt beside her unconscious son. "Chris!" She called, a quiver in her voice. He peaked around a shelf and crept out, his face sheet white and tear streaked, still sobbing from the events of the night.
"Leo!" Phoebe yelled. He orbed straight in.
"Wyatt!" He yelled. He ran to his son.
"Get Paige first!" Piper screamed, cradling Wyatt. Leo ran to Paige.
"Prestyn?" Phoebe called. "Oh God, please no. No! Prestyn?" She shouted. Tears fell down her face. "Chris, what happened to Prestyn? Where is she?" She yelled. Chris couldn't get anything out. "Chris! Where is she!"
Chris broke down into a fit of tears. "The… the bad… man took… her!" He yelled between sobs.
"Oh God," Piper whispered. Leo moved over to his son once Paige had been healed.
Phoebe put a hand to her heart. "No! God no! Please no! No, no, no!" Phoebe was now hysterical and collapsed to the floor as Paige ran over to comfort her.
"Shh. Honey, we'll get her back. Well get her back," Paige whispered.
"How!" Phoebe wailed.
"Leo, sense her, now!" Piper snapped as Wyatt woke up. Leo did as he was told. "Paige, take the boys to magic school. Now!"
Paige walked over to the boys, who were now both crying, and orbed them to magic school.
"Leo? Anything?" Piper asked.
Leo looked at Piper with a dreaded look on his face.
Phoebe became more hysterical.
"Try again!" She hugged her little sister tighter, kissing her forehead, trying to remain strong, but failing miserably.
"I can't sense her," Leo returned.
"Leo, try again, and don't stop until you get something," Piper spoke through gritted teeth.
"It doesn't mean she's not still alive. He may have taken her down into the underworld."
Blue and white lights entered the room and Paige evolved from them. "Anything?" She asked.
"She's gone! Oh God, she's gone!" Phoebe wailed.
"No she's not!" Paige snapped. "We will get her back, Phoebe."
Phoebe took a breath to clam down, suddenly emotionless. "No. We won't. We can't. There is no possible way."
"Phoebe you can't give up," Piper spoke through her tears.
"I just have! She's gone, and there's no way of getting her back!" She pushed her sisters off of her and walked to the centre of the attic where she was engulfed in a golden light.
"What the Hell is happening?" Paige asked.
"Phoebe? Phoebe! What is going on!"
Phoebe was hovering three feet of the ground engulfed in this beautiful golden light and suddenly dropped down to the ground with a heavy thud.
"Phoebe!" Paige and Piper yelled. They ran over to their sister, to only find a child lying in the middle of the attic.
Ooooooooooh wats up with that!
Wait to find out, but leave a review in the process :)
