Pre-ChrisCrossed, AU ending
Chris Revelation Fic.
Piper Haliwell stooped over the Book of Shadows, carefully reading the entry marked "Time Travel." Her face became more and more grim as she read on.
She and her sisters have been more and more anxious out the rather secretive activities of Chris Perry. All of his excuses, and half-truths were unbearable, and the home situation was becoming extremely tense.
"Find anything?" Paige walked into the room, followed closely by Phoebe, who was balancing Wyatt on her hip.
"Nothing!" Piper said, upset. "All it says is what I remembered…the spell and whatnot."
"Come on, sisters!" Phoebe broke in, "we know that something is up with him."
Silently, they all recalled the past weeks occurrences that involved Chris. Glaring at Wyatt whenever Piper kissed him, leaving in the middle of conversations, even almost punching Leo in the face when he made a crack about half-demons.
Blue orbs interrupted their individual thoughts as Leo orbed into the room, holding an athame.
"Hey!" Piper shouted, moving away from it, "Keep that thing away from us!"
The hurried elder looked down at the blade, which was pointing directly at his ex-wife.
"Oh, sorry girls," he replied hastily, as he flipped it and held the blade instead.
"So, what up Up There? Phoebe asked casually. "And why are you holding that?"
"I found it in Chris' room!" Leo said eagerly, remembering why he was their in the first place. "It's obviously proof that he's evil!"
"Um, Leo," Paige began hesitantly, "we have athames here, and we're not evil…"
"She's got a point." Phoebe agreed.
"Yeah, but whitelighters aren't supposed to carry these! We're pacifists!"
"Alright, but I think your stretching on this—" Piper was cut off by the opening of a portal behind her, which created a violent wind that blew her hair about.
"What the—" Paige began, but was interrupted by a young woman tumbling through the portal, and flying into the opposite wall.
She had brownish-blonde hair that lay straight, falling halfway down her back. She wore a red sweater with khaki pants, and looked breathless. Her eyes looked this way and that, frightened of where she was.
The newcomer turned back to the portal, in time to see several darklighter, crossbows aimed, crawling through the rapidly closing opening. The jumped out right before it closed.
"Leo, Paige, get yourselves and Wyatt out of here!" Piper yelled, immediately recognizing the threat the darklighters posed to her family.
"We would never hurt the Dark Lord." The darklighter sneered at Piper and Phoebe who held Wyatt.
"We do, however, want you." The darklighter said, whirling around to face the other woman, who was not standing up.
"Oh yeah?" she said, sure of herself. She raised her hand, and an energy ball appeared.
"Demon!" Phoebe squeaked. Leo, however, was puzzled. Although the arrows full of poison made him believe it was better not to speak.
To everyone's surprise, the energy ball still in her hand transformed into a purple tulip in a burst of blue orbs.
"No," she moaned, "not again…"
Immediately, a force field came up, much like Wyatt's who was already in place, except that this one cracked with a strong electric current. Fruitlessly, the darklighter poked it, but it was like steel.
"What do we do?" the second darklighter, who was in a watchmen position, wondered aloud.
"Shut up!" the first one replied, enraged. Harder, he prodded the shield, but the woman remained safely inside.
Blue orbs announce another whitelighter entering the attic. Chris appeared, and his eyes immediately took in the scene.
"Bianca?"
