Some Things The Same
Author's note: My very first time writing for Charmed, so please forgive me if I have people out of character. I like to imagine that even if the future changed, that Chris would still be with Bianca, and this would be the first time they meet in the new future. Set in 2018 in the good future. I have Bianca 4 years older than Chris, and because in the finale, when Phoebe and Coop were leaving, Billie was with their kids, so I have her in here.
Warnings: probable ooc, slight spoiler for Chris Crossed, minor cussing.
Disclaimer: Sadly, I do not own Chris, or anything else related to Charmed.

"Are you sure we should go after the Phoenixes?" Phoebe said, "I mean…" She glanced at the now fourteen year old Chris, who was trying to teach his sister to orb objects that were moving, which was really just an excuse to throw things at her.
"Why wouldn't we?" Billie asked, "They're assassins. They've killed witches before, and they will probably do it again. They just attacked one of Wyatt's charges."
"Chris's fiancé in the future is a Phoenix," Paige said.
"We never got the full story, but we think that Wyatt hired her to kill Chris, but she fell in love with him instead. Then she must have changed sides for him." Piper said.
"They probably began to rebel against Wyatt soon after that," Phoebe said.
"And eventually formed the plan for Chris to come to the past and save Wyatt," Paige finished.
"Plus, they are still witches. They shouldn't die just because of the coven they were born into," Piper pointed out.
"Okay," Billie said, "how about we orb in, use the stun potions, and ask if anyone wants to join our side; if they don't we vanquish them."
"Sounds okay," the sisters said in unison. Chris stopped throwing things at his sister, and ran over to Piper.
"Can I come?" he asked, "You still haven't let me help vanquish any demons, but Wyatt got to when he was twelve. It's not fair."
"I know, Chris," Piper said, "maybe next time."
"Mom!" Chris complained.
"Chris, with your brother, father, and uncles busy, we need you to stay here and protect your sister and your cousins," Paige said gently.
"Nice to know I'm your fifth choice," Chris muttered under his breath, and then said clearly, "Fine."
"Okay, sweetie, what do you do if a demon attacks while we're gone?" Piper asked.
"Call for Wyatt, and use my telekinesis to hold the demon back until he gets here," Chris recited what his mother and aunts told him every time they left to vanquish a demon.
"Good boy," Piper said, "We'll be back soon." She went to hook arms with Paige, and they orbed out.
"Okay, Melinda," he said to his sister as he telekinetically lifted a ball, "try to orb this back to me." He threw the ball to his sister.
"Ball!" she said with force as she moved her hand as if to throw the ball at Chris. The ball was consumed with white lights, and then changed direction and started to fly towards Chris. He stopped it in midair and smiled to his sister. "I did it!" she screamed with joy.
"Nice job," he said, as his cousins started to clap for Melinda. "Let's try again to make sure it wasn't a fluke." He threw the ball again. It sailed through the air a hit a demon, just as it shimmered in.
"Hello, children," it sneered as it formed energy ball.
"Wyatt!" Chris called. "Guys, go to your rooms." Chris telekinetically flung the demon to the wall as Melinda orbed herself and Henry Jr. upstairs, the twins orbed up as well, and Phoebe's three girls used their cupid powers to beam upstairs.

Wyatt orbed out of the way of the arrow that one of the dark lighters had shot at him. "Damn it," he muttered, "Five dark lighters. This charge better be a really powerful white lighter in the future." He flung telekinetically a dark lighter aside, and raised his force field to protect himself from another arrow. Wyatt! He heard Chris call. He wanted to help his brother, but he couldn't just abandon his charge. "One second little buddy," he muttered.
"Crossbow!" he called and it orbed in to his hand. He shot one dark lighter, and five more orbed in as back up. One had the sense not to attack Wyatt, but to go to his charge. "Crap," he muttered.
.oOo.
The girls orbed in to see many of the Phoenixes talking to each other about their newest target. One of them, who Piper recognized as Bianca's mother, noticed them and threw an energy ball. Piper froze the ball as Phoebe, Paige, ad Billie threw the stun potions. All of the Phoenixes stopped moving, but were not frozen. They were still breathing, and could still talk.
"Okay," Piper said, stepping aside from the energy ball, "We're here to offer a deal. Do any of you want to join our side? You can use your powers for good, go to magic school, the whole shebang."
"Shebang?" Paige muttered. Piper rolled her eyes.
A young Phoenix with the bird birthmark on her left wrist looked around at the others, sighed, and said, "I'll join you, if you spare my mother.
"What's your name?" Paige asked.
"Bianca. The one with the short blonde hair is my mother," she replied.
"You mean the one that threw an energy ball at us?" Billie asked.
"I apologize for that," Bianca's mother said, "But I could be useful to you. I could teach young a class on vanquishing demons at magic school."
"Traitor!" one of the others shouted. She and a few others began to recite a spell. When the spell was finished, the witches could move. All of them except for Bianca and her mother raised energy balls, aimed at the six of them.
