PART TWELVE: "I just can't lose him too!"
Hearing Phoebe's scream, Prue ran up the stairs, her feet barely touching the steps. Not her, too! I can't lose my baby sister on the day I'm burying my other sister! Ohhh, I hope that Kernus is back because I'd love to send him on a one-way trip through the wall! Now that would be the proper way to start this horrible day! And right now I'm angry enough that I'm sure that this time I'd have enough power to do it!
In the kitchen, Andy suddenly felt Prue's terror, the same terror that originally brought him to her. Dropping his now-empty mug, he immediately orbed to where he could sense her heading--Phoebe's room.
No sooner did he reappear in the doorway to Phoebe's room than he called out, "What's taking so...long?" He took a couple of steps forward into the room and came to a stop when he saw Phoebe crying and Cole's still form lying on the bed, out cold.
Before he could say or do anything else, Prue appeared at the doorway, looking around for the cause of Phoebe's screaming. She didn't even notice Andy as her eyes immediately landed on the knocked-out Cole lying on the bed and Phoebe's hysterical face. "Phoebs! Are you all right?"
Hearing that voice, Phoebe jumped up from the bed and ran directly into her big sister's arms. "Prue! Cole isn't waking up!" As she shook her head a few tears escape from her brown eyes and run down her cheeks. "You remember my premonition! Prue, I just can't lose him, too! I'd never be able to stand it!" She leaned into Prue and rested her head on her big sister's shoulder.
Prue wrapped her little sister in a comforting hug and rubbed Phoebe's shoulders in order to calm her down. "Don't worry, Phoebs, we're not gonna lose him." She watched as Cole's chest continued to rise and fall. As long as he was still alive and simply wouldn't wake up, she was sure they'd figure a way. She knew her sister was over-reacting due to that premonition.
Andy had been watching the two sisters. "Is there anything I can do to help?" the whitelighter asks, a note of concern in his voice.
Suddenly an idea popped into Prue's head and her eyes lit up. "Yeah, as a matter of fact, there is." Releasing Phoebe, she jogged over to Andy and whispered in his ear, then went back to hug Phoebe. "Don't worry, Phoebs, he'll be fine." Hope this works--it's the only thing I could think of at short notice.
Phoebe watched as Andy orbed out and then turned to look her sister in the eyes. "But, Prue! What can Andy do? You know whitelighters can't heal demons, even half-demons."
