Brilliance of the Moon Challenge #6

Chris didn't come back from the future alone the 1st time, in fact he had being in the past for a week before he orbed into Oh My Goddess. Chris has a daugther, Piper Hope Halliwell, and he has to hide her from his family. But when Piper gets ill and he has to look after her, even when he is ill himself after having a relapse of his condition will he be able to keep little Piper and his identities a secret?

Rules:

1. Little Piper can't be seriously ill, she could have the flu or something. For a young child that would be quite bad to her.

2. Chris has something serious like Diabetes or something like that.

3. They don't live at P3, the girls don't know where he lives.

4. Little Piper's mother is Bianca. If calling her Little Piper is a litle confusing you could always come up with a nickname or he could call her by her middle name Hope.

Chapter 1: Remembering Bianca

"Daddy?" Miley Piper asked the young man sitting with his head in his hands. Her silky long brown hair messy after trying to sleep. She had a pink pyjama with flowers and she had a teddy bear in her arms.

"Yea sweetie, what is it?" Chris asked his baby girl gently. They had been in the past for months now. Wyatt had tried to bring him back to the future by using Bianca as bait. Of course, Bianca was dead by this time, the sisters had thrown him out of the house and Leo was on his case all the time. They didn't know about Miley yet which was a miracle . He couldn't handle more right now on top of what had already happened. He was sick of lying all the time but he knew it was for the best. Still, it didn't make it less painful for him to lie all the time. All the time he was scared that Wyatt would try and bring him back again. What would Wyatt do if he saw Miley? He didn't know of her. No one did. Bianca and Chris had decided when they found out they were going to keep it a secret. For Miley's sake.

"I'm not feeling well daddy, can I stay here with you?" Miley's soft voice shook Chris out of his thoughts. She held the bear closer to her and Chris smiled at her. His little girl had grown up so quickly and she was alot more grown up than other children at her age so he treasured ever moment of innocence he could spend with her. Sighing slightly, he scooped her up in his arms and grinned at his little girl, earning a small weak smile in response.

"Of course you can" Chris said to her. Her blue eyes showed happiness. 'But for how long?' Chris thought. He sat down on the old sofa. He lived in an abandoned house which he had used in the future. By now it was much better. Someone had just died there and they hadn't done anything with the house. Although the stuff where gone Chris knew where to get them. He looked down at Miley sitting on his lap. Chris smiled remembering the day he and Bianca first found out about Miley.

-------------------------------

"Chris... What are you doing?" Bianca laughed as Chris scooped her up in his arms dancing around. Chris laughed and just continued to swing her around.

"Nothing. I'm just happy that's all" Chris answered grinning happily. But the happiness didn't last long. Soon as the two darklighters materialized Chris and Bianca started to run away.

"Chris, get out of here, I'll keep them busy" Bianca yelled and conjured an athame ready to fight.

"No, the poison won't affect you but the arrow can kill you" Chris said and took her hands and started running with her. He looked behind him and saw the darklighters gaining in on them. Suddenly without warning a darklighter formed in front of them aiming the crossbow at Chris. Bianca watched terrified. Chris squeezed her hand and looked at her then turned his gaze to the darklighter. Suddenly he thought about the darklighter behind them. It all happened so fast. It was like in slow motion. He turned around and the darklighter grinned at him and then aimed the crossbow... at Bianca... Chris watched in horror as the arrow made its way to her back. She gasped out and fell to her knees. The first darklighter watched in satisfaction.

"Wyatt sends his love to the both of you" He grinned and then the two of them orbed out leaving Chris behind with an injured Bianca.

"Ch..." Bianca said weakly.

"Shh.. Don't talk Bianca" Chris told her as he turned her around and ripped off her top to get a clear view of her wound.

"This is gonna hurt a lot but I need to this" Chris said as he pulled out the arrow with a piece of Bianca's shirt. Bianca screamed and he looked at her with tears in his eyes. He then ripped a piece of his own shirt and pressed it against the wound. He looked back at Bianca and saw her eyelids begin to drop.

"NO!! No, no, no, no.. You stay with me Bianca" Chris continued to chant as tears gathered in his eyes. Through his tears, he could see Bianca smiled at him. As he watched Bianca force a smile through her pain, he could tell how weak she was and a thought came to him. She wasn't a whitelighter, so why did she get weak, and most of all. Why did she get affected by it?

"DAD?" Chris yelled for the only person he could think off. His father. He knew he wouldn't respond, because he didn't care about him but right now the love of his life was near dying and he couldn't let her die. She was the only one left that he cared about. His brother was still alive, and if you didn't count the fact that he was the source of all evil now, he would have two, but that was still beside the point.

Chris kept watching Bianca as she slowly closed her eyes.. Bianca was dying. He couldn't let her die, he loved her more than anything in the world.

"No. hang on, please, hang on. I can't lose you. Bianca, please" Chris whimpered as tears streamed down his face, willing her to wake up.... But she didn't.... Seconds ticked by and no sign of her still being alive. Chris started panicking. He brought his hands to her wound and imagined the light healing her, as he had watched his father done so many times in the past.

"Please.I can't lose her too. Please" Chris begged. He closed his eyes for a long time not knowing what to do. He felt so helpless. He wasn't aware of how many minutes had gone by nor was he aware of the glow that started coming from his hands or Bianca's wound that began to heal slowly. It was only when Bianca coughed he was brought back to reality. He slowly opened his eyes and looked into Bianca's chocolate brown eyes. She smiled at him. He laughed through his tears and hugged her tightly.

"I though you were gone" Chris cried. Bianca looked at him through her own tears.

"I would never leave you. Not now" She said simply. But Chris figured it was more behind those words.

"How did you get affected by the poison?" Chris asked after a while of hugging her. Bianca looked down guiltily as she breathed in deeply. She had seemed afraid, not something that Bianca ususally was, concidering her family history. But this time she had almost seemed afraid of her own being.

"Chris please, please dont be mad, this is what I wanted to talk to you about..." She trailed off as she looked into his green eyes for help to continue. When she got the courage to continue, she smiled hugely as she dropped the huge bomshell at her boyfriend.

"I'm pregnant... I found out a couple of days before, and I didn't want to tell you because I was so afraid for what you were gonna say. I mean, since your brother is evil, and your father isn't exactly the most supporting person on the planet for you right now, and you had so much on your mind. And if you found out, you would be so protective, and you would get hurt, and I didn't want that. And I didn't know if you would want......" Bianca stopped her rambling as Chris suddenly kissed her passionatley, and swung her around.

"Of course I would want a baby. Of course" He told Bianca with a huge grin as he set her on the ground. "Unless..." Bianca's smile faltered as she wondered what her boyfriend was about to say, "Unless it's not my baby, and your secretley having an affair, because then that would be really baaa..... OW" Chris exclaimed as Bianca hit him.

"Of course it's yours, you dolt. Who else would I ever sleep with? Your the love of my life, the one I want to spend my life with, come on..." Bianca looked up into Chris's eyes as her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Honey, whats wrong? I didn't mean to hurt you, of course I knew it was mine. You wouldn't be with someone else, I knew that. I'm sorry honey" Chris tried deseperatley to explain himself as he looked wide eyed at Bianca.

"No, no. I'ts not that. It's just that I spent so many hours crying and wondering if you would think this was great, or if you would leave me..." Bianca trailed off yet again.

"I couldn't care less at which time you would get pregnant. All I care about is my love for you, and our baby" Chris smiled as he touched her face and wiped away a tear, looking lovingly into her eyes. Bianca silently shook her head as she looked to the ground, regretting what she was about to say.

"What about your father?" She asked gently, trying to hurt him as less as possible.

Chris tensed as his eyes hardened slightly, "What about him?"

"Your father is an elder Chris, he's going to be mad about this. Not just because you are with me, but because you're going to be a father, with a demon nonetheless" Bianca explained as she looked away from Chris's eyes. Chris walked away, but then walked back and grabbed her face and kissed her again.

"Do you honestly believe I would care what anyone will say at all?" He said soflty as his head rested against hers. Bianca looked deeply into his eyes, and smiled. He wasn't going to leave her for anything, and she felt really good knowing it. Nothing would seperate them at all.

-----------------------------------------------------------

Chris laughed softly thinking about the event. When Miley had been born Bianca had never let him forget that day he said the baby was gonna be a boy.

He looked down at his now sleeping daughter and smiled. She was the most beautiful girl. Her long hair messy (not always). Usually she used to have curly hair. Beautiful brown hair with curls in it. Her blue emerald green eyes shining every time you would look at them. She was never scared of anything. She never knew what pain was. And Chris was thankful for that. He would do anything in his power to keep her from being hurt. She was his perfect little girl.

"Daddy?" Miley said softly watching him smile. Her eyes barely open but enough for her to see him.

"Yea? What is it honey?" Chris asked. He hoped he didn't wake her anymore than she already was. She needed to sleep. Miley coughed a little and smiled at him.

"I saw mommy daddy. And she says she's proud of you" Miley whispered. Chris was happy she had closed her eyes by now so she didn't see the shocked expression on his face. Bianca was dead. She died when he came from the future. She died when she saved him from Wyatt. Was it possible that she communicated through Miley? Chris smiled at the thought. At least Miley get to see her mother. Chris had told her Bianca was in heaven. She didn't understand it yet though. She thought her mother was on a vacation. And he wanted it to be this way. He scooped Miley up in his arms and headed for the old mattress he used to sleep on, which was beside Miley's. He didn't come that far though because orbs were starting to materialize. Chris panicked. 'No one knows about this place idiot' Chris thought to himself. The comfort vanished when he was faced with one person. One very angry person.

"Chris? Who is that?"

'Oh shit' was the only thing his mind could progress
