Wyatt is 17 and Chris is 15.
Summary: Chris has started getting in trouble, but now things are about to get worse. Up until now Wyatt has been good, though will Chris change things?
Wyatt has started getting a lot of money and his parents begin to worry about where it is coming from. Chris is getting in to more and more trouble and Wyatt clearly knows what is going on, but neither of them will tell.
It isn't just about normal things though as Wyatt is no longer bothered about demon vanquishes like before and both boys begin using their magic for other things. Leo and Piper are trying to find out what is going on and hope that their sons are not turning evil. What happens though when Chris starts to see sense? Can he get his brother back or is it too late?
Please read and review!

Wyatt and Chris made their way to school. Wyatt hated school and his marks were often low except for when it came to sports. Wyatt concentrated mainly on magic rather than schoolwork. Chris, however, had always got good marks and was top of the class in almost every subject. Lately he had been skipping class quite a bit and his marks had dropped quite noticeably.
Chris wasn't bothered about schoolwork or magic anymore. He was having a good time, though Piper and Leo were becoming worried about him and they were just glad that Wyatt wasn't causing trouble as well.
Finally the brothers made it to school and went their separate ways. Wyatt went to his first class which was at the other end of the building while Chris went around the back of the school.
Yet again Chris was skipping class. He met up with two friends, Mark and Shane, around the back. They nodded at him when he came around the corner and Shane handed him a can of beer. They all grinned as they opened the cans and began to drink.
"Here, have these," Mark said after a minute, handing him a packet of cigarettes, but Chris shook his head.
"Come on," Shane said, punching him lightly in the arm.
"What if Wyatt finds out…or worse, my parents!?" Chris said, still refusing them. The other two glared at Chris and he sighed, taking the packet. The other two continued to stare at him, waiting.
"Well…?" Mark said, nodding his head at them. Chris looked at them before taking one and shoving the rest of the pack in his pocket.
"Fine, but if anyone finds out…" Chris replied, not finishing as he heard a noise.
The group turned around and were surprised to see Wyatt standing there scowling.
"What are you doing here?" Chris asked, shocked.
"The teacher thinks I went to get a drink," Wyatt replied coldly, grabbing the cigarette off Chris and throwing the can away before dragging Chris out the way of the other two.
"Chris, what do you think you are doing?" Wyatt almost shouted once they were out of hearing distance of anyone.
"I…I just wanted them to like me."
"Why?"
"Cuz they're cool," Chris replied, no longer sounding like he cared.
Wyatt sighed. "Just be careful and don't do stuff like that just because they say so."
"I didn't."
Wyatt looked shocked. "You…you wanted to do that?" he asked in disbelief. Chris shrugged and turned his back on Wyatt, planning on heading back to the other two.
"What would you do if a demon attacked? You'd be in no state to fight!" Wyatt said, his voice rising causing Chris to turn and face him.
"Well you can fight them! Besides it hasn't happened yet."
Wyatt grabbed his arm and, after glancing around him, he orbed them out. They reappeared in Wyatt and Chris's bedroom.
"We need to talk about this."
"No we don't," Chris argued. Wyatt forced Chris to sit on the bed.
"Why are you trying to cause trouble? Why would you want to drink and smoke?" he questioned. Chris just shrugged again. He wasn't sure he exactly knew the answer himself. After a few minutes Wyatt realised it was useless and orbed them back to school, though this time he made sure Chris went to class.
After a long day at school the boys met up and walked home together though for the first time both boys were silent.
When they got home Chris went straight upstairs and Wyatt went to find his parents, though finding no one home he assumed they were either at the club sorting things out for tonight or a demon had attacked. Either way all he could do was wait for them.
He was thinking when he heard a knock on the door and it was then that he remembered he had a driving lesson. He grinned. His last driving lesson and then hopefully he would be able to drive by himself whenever or wherever he wanted. He shouted bye to Chris as he opened the front door and walked out.

That night Wyatt and Chris went to bed. Wyatt was almost asleep when he heard a noise coming from Chris's bed on the other side of the room. He looked up to see Chris getting out of bed and walking over to the window. Chris, having no idea he was being watched, opened the window and was about to climb out. A sudden voice nearly caused him to fall, but he managed to balance himself.
"Where do you think you are going?" Wyatt questioned him. Chris made his way back over to his bed.
"What's it to you?"
"I just wondered. I mean at…" Wyatt started before realising he had no idea of the time. He looked at the clock. "At one o'clock in the morning it isn't normal to be climbing out the window."
Chris laughed slightly. "Guess you're right. Just I heard about something that is happening near the school."
Wyatt became curious. "What?"
"A car race."
Wyatt knew what he was about to say was wrong, but he had to see this race. He had always liked the idea of racing and was always watching it on TV. "Can I come?"
Chris looked surprised, but nodded.
"Great," Wyatt said, jumping out of bed and quickly getting dressed. The two sneaked out through the window and made their way to where the race was about to start.
