Chris frowned when he saw Wyatt playing with his Gameboy in the living room as he walks down the stairs. After all, why should he let Wyatt play with his toys if Wyatt never shared with him? "Wyatt, that's mine!" Chris said as Wyatt turned to his little brother with a raised eyebrow.
"It isn't anymore." Wyatt replied a small smile finding its way onto the Twice-Blessed's face. "What are you going to do? Cry?" Wyatt demanded when he noticed Chris's frown deepen.
"No! But I want my Gameboy back. Mom bought it for ME! You lost your own and I want mine back." Chris demanded.
"I told you, Chris. This isn't yours anymore." Wyatt said holding up the game system in his hands. Wyatt had lost his own after a couple weeks and decided that he wouldn't waste the effort to find his own and just take Chris's. "That's not a problem is it, little brother?" Wyatt asked, his eyes narrowing threateningly at the 8 year old.
"Yes, it is!" Chris yelled back orbing the Gameboy into his hands.
"I was playing with that!" Wyatt yelled back.
"Well, I want to play with it now and it's mine. Why don't you go find your own if you want to play with it so bad?" Chris retorted as Wyatt's glare deepened.
"Well, if you won't share…" Wyatt said dangerously before orbing the Gameboy back into his hands. "Then none of us get it!" Wyatt says before throwing the Gameboy on the floor and stomping on it, destroying the game into little pieces.
"Mom!" Chris immediately yells out making Wyatt have a look of panic on his face. Immediately, the 10 year old Twice-Blessed waved his hand and orbed the game pieces into one of the pyramids in Egypt, not that anyone else knew it. The tombs in Egypt had been his dump for his magical messes since he was 5 years old. Piper ran into the room the moment the game pieces had completely disappeared. "Mom, Wyatt was playing with my Gameboy and when I wanted it back, he wouldn't give it to me so I orbed it back and then he orbed it and then he broke it!" Chris said almost bursting into tears.
"Oh, stop being such a baby, Chris. I didn't even do anything. You're just blaming me because you lost the Gameboy, too!" Wyatt yelled back.
"Wyatt, did you break your little brother's toy?" Piper asked sternly.
'You're going to regret this, Chris' Wyatt said telepathically to his little brother before Chris notices tears come to Wyatt's eyes. "Mom, I didn't mean to but I asked Chris if I could play with his toy and he said yes but then he came back and told me he wanted it back! He tried to grab it out of my hands but he didn't hold it good enough and it flew away and broke! I thought you were gonna be mad so I orbed the pieces away!" Wyatt said before bursting into tears and running into his mother's arms.
"Wyatt, it's okay, honey. Chris, if you said your brother could play with it then you can't want it back after a couple minutes." Piper scolded gently. Chris was too shocked with Wyatt's presentation that he could only stand there. "Alright, you guys be nice to each other. I have to go start dinner because your aunts are coming over with their husbands and your little cousin, Peyton." Piper said and smiled when she notices both Chris and Wyatt's faces brighten. They both loved having a baby cousin especially Chris since he was the youngest one before Peyton was born and had no one he could be protective of. "Play nice, you two." Piper said before standing up and going into the kitchen.
Right after Piper left the room, Wyatt stood up and looked down at Chris threateningly. "If you ever tell Mom anything ever again, then you're going to regret it. Understand, Chris?" Wyatt asked as he powered up an energy ball. Chris's eyes widened when he saw Wyatt power up an energy ball. That was supposed to be a demonic power. Why did his brother have it? "I asked you a question, Chris." Wyatt warned once more and Chris quickly nodded.
"Wyatt?" Chris asked in a soft voice.
"What?" Wyatt demanded harshly turning to his brother making Chris shrink back slightly. "I mean, what is it, Chris?" Wyatt asked softening slightly when he noticed the fear in his baby brother's eyes.
"How come you have energy balls? Don't only demons have those?" Chris asks.
"No!" Wyatt immediately said. "It only comes when I'm really mad." Wyatt said with a shrug. "I'm gonna go. Tell Mom I'm going to the park or something." Wyatt replied orbing out making Chris's eyes widen. They weren't allowed to orb alone so Chris quickly orbed out to find his brother before he got in trouble.
"Wyatt. Wyatt! Where are you, Wy?" Chris asked as he wandered down the sidewalk of the park. His brother had said he was going to the park, wasn't he? "Wy, I know you can hear me!" Chris yelled as he noticed a few kids Wyatt's age near the monkey bars. When he walked closer, he noticed that they were a couple of Wyatt's classmates from school. "Hey!" Chris yelled out and the kids turned to Chris. "Have you guys seen Wyatt?" Chris asked.
"Well, if it's the little crybaby Halliwell," one of the boys Chris recognized as Jamie said. "What are you doing at the park alone? Don't you miss your mommy, you little baby?" Jamie asked as the boys advanced on Chris.
"I-I just want to know if you guys have seen Wyatt." Chris stuttered not wanting them to see how afraid he was.
"This is our park, Chris. You shouldn't be here. Right, guys?" Jamie said and the 4 other boys he was with nodded and agreed with him. "Get him." Jamie said and they charged towards Chris, the 4 boys tackling him and pinning him up against the tree. Chris knew that he could orb out whenever he wanted but he also knew he wasn't allowed to expose magic. "We'll teach you for coming into our park." Jamie said and punched Chris in the eye. Just as he was about to punch Chris in the gut, he flew backwards.
Chris turned his head towards the source and saw his brother running towards him, his blue eyes raging and his curly hair flying all around. Wyatt stopped in front of Chris and the boys holding him and he sneered. "That's my little brother you're holding." Wyatt said, hidden danger evident in his voice. "Let him go." Wyatt ordered and immediately the boys let go of him, their eyes widened in fear. "You. Stop." Wyatt said and turned around noticing Jamie still running. Wyatt help up his hand and suddenly Jamie stopped in his tracks.
"Wyatt, don't use your powers in public!" Chris said with a gasp but Wyatt didn't even reply as he flicked his wrists bringing Jamie in front of him.
"If you ever touch my little brother again, I'll kill you. Do you understand?" Wyatt said coldly. "And this is for hitting him." Wyatt said moving a finger and flinging Jamie into the tree. "Go!" Wyatt yelled and immediately the 5 boys ran away screaming. After a couple minutes of standing there, grinning at how afraid of him the other boys were, Wyatt turned to look at Chris.
"Wyatt, you-you used your powers on them!" Chris said in horror.
"Well, you wanted me to save you, didn't you?" Wyatt demanded in annoyance. He frowned when he saw a purple bruise appearing around Chris's left eye and walked towards him. "Let me heal it, you idiot." Wyatt said rolling his eyes when Chris took a step back. Chris allowed his brother to heal him before looking at Wyatt seriously.
"How are you going to fix exposing magic?" Chris asked.
"I'll get Dad to do it. Or the Cleaners will." Wyatt replied with a shrug. "Now come on, Mom's gonna get mad if she finds out we left." Wyatt said taking Chris's hand and orbing the two back to their room at the Manor.
"Wyatt, Chris, if I have to call you two again, you two are in big trouble." Piper yelled from downstairs and immediately the two ran downstairs to greet their mother. "Where were you two? I've been calling you guys for a minute already!" Piper said angrily.
"Sorry, Mom, I was meditating with Chris. Aunt Phoebe said we should meditate a lot 'cause it clears our minds." Wyatt replied.
"Figures Phoebe would say something like that." Piper said rolling her eyes. "Alright. I just wanted to make sure you two weren't getting into trouble somewhere." Piper said before turning back to her cooking.
"But Mom…" Chris started then noticed Wyatt's glaring. "Never mind, Mom." Chris said before running up the stairs hoping Wyatt would follow him. "Wyatt?" Chris called when he reached their room and suddenly Wyatt appeared in a bunch of bright blue orbs after 10 minutes. "Wyatt, we have to tell Mom or Dad otherwise magic is gonna be exposed." Chris said almost panicking.
"Jeez, Chris, stop worrying. I took care of them." Wyatt said rolling his eyes, Chris's eyes widening. "I took 'em to a place where they're never getting out. A place that's really hot and scary. Now they can't say anything about seeing my magic." Wyatt said with a smirk, obviously proud that he had done what he had done. "Don't worry, Chris. Nobody will ever hurt you again. Especially Jamie and those idiots." Wyatt said before walking out the door. Chris watched his brother leave not sure if he should feel happy that Wyatt had acted like a big brother or if he should call their dad because Wyatt took a bunch of mortals to what he assumed to be Hell.
"Mom!" Chris yelled out after a few minutes of thinking. He heard running on the stairs and jumped in surprise when he saw his mother burst in the room, her hands up. "Mom, what are you doing?" Chris asks.
"I thought there was a demon. Chris, you know better than to yell in this house if there isn't any demon." Piper said before noticing Chris's torn expression. She walked over to her younger son and took a seat next to the 8 year old. "What's wrong, Chris?" Piper asked.
"Mom, I think Wyatt took Jamie and a bunch of other boys to Hell." Chris said in a small voice as Piper's eyes widened.
"Chris, are you sure about this? You're not joking? Because this is a very serious accusation, Chris. If Wyatt really took them to Hell, then he just exposed magic and we'll have to call your father." Piper said her expression turning into one of extreme seriousness.
"Mom, I'm not sure if it's Hell but I know Wyatt took them somewhere. I'm pretty sure it's Hell." Chris said. "Yes, Mom, I'm sure." Chris said when Piper opened her mouth again.
"Um… well… okay. Leo? Leo, I need your help." Piper called out and a couple seconds later Leo orbed in with a concerned expression. "I need you to erase some memories, Leo. Orb down to Purgatory and get some boys back then erase their memories. Evidently, our older son has orbed them down for who knows what reason." Piper said.
"What? Why?" Leo asked.
"I don't know, Leo. I just need you to get them back. We'll talk to Wyatt later. Just get them back for now." Piper said and Leo nodded before orbing out. "I can't believe Wyatt would do something like this. He knows to come to us if he ever needed help." Piper said more to herself than her current companion, Chris. The mother-son pair sat in silence for about 15 minutes before Leo orbed in again. "Well? Were they down there?" Piper asked.
"Yes, they were down there. I took them and erased their memories. Now, explain to me. What happened?" Leo asked.
"Let's ask. Wyatt? Wyatt! Wyatt Matthew Halliwell, you get your ass over here right now!" Piper called and immediately the 10 year old orbed in knowing not to mess with his mother when she was angry but he wouldn't come willingly and he would make his feelings known.
"What is it, Mom?" Wyatt demanded in annoyance.
"Don't you take that tone with me, young man." Piper reprimanded and Wyatt muttered a soft apology. 'What the Hell did you tell them, Christopher?' Wyatt demanded telepathically with his coldest voice. "Now, why did you take those poor boys down to Purgatory?" Piper asked.
"They were hurting Chris, Mom. I was just trying to protect him. I accidentally used my magic, too, because I was so mad at them. I took them down to Hell because I didn't have any memory dust and I thought if they were down there then they wouldn't expose magic." Wyatt replied. 'You're going to regret this' Wyatt added telepathically to Chris.
Piper sighed before looking Wyatt in his eyes. "You know if you ever needed help, you can come to me or your father." Piper said.
"I know and I'm sorry, Mom. I just wasn't thinking right." Wyatt answered.
"Alright, it's not okay but I'm going to let it go this time." Piper said as Leo orbed out. After all, why would he stay around? He had heard everything he needed to hear. His beloved son had lost control for a couple minutes and that's all. "Now, I'm going to go finish dinner. No more orbing around." Piper said before leaving. The moment their mother left, the door to their room glowed and Wyatt turned to Chris.
"I told you not to tell Mom anything ever again. I told you and you didn't listen, Chris. You're going to regret it. Mom won't hear anything, either, because I sound-proofed the room. Now, you're going to learn what happens when you betray me." Wyatt said as one of Chris's prized toy cars orbed into Wyatt's hands. That toy car was one of a set that Leo had given him at one of the birthday's he had actually gone to.
"No, Wyatt, please don't. Please, Wyatt. I'm sorry. Please, don't break it." Chris begged trying to get to Wyatt but the blue force field shot up and Chris was flung back onto the bed.
"And in case you haven't figured it out, little brother, I can keep anybody I don't want out of my shield. Even if it's someone good." Wyatt said with a smirk as he threw the car on the floor and flung an energy ball at it. "Maybe you'll learn to never betray me after this little lesson." Wyatt said orbing another car into his hand and incinerating it with another well-aimed energy ball. "I warned you earlier today, Chris, but you didn't listen to me. Maybe this is why Dad never wants to spend time with you. Because he hates that you're always betraying me! You know he's always loved me more, right? That's why he always goes to my birthday and never yours." Wyatt said amusedly destroying 5 toys in that time. By that time, Chris was already crying in frustration and in sorrow.
"Wyatt, please, stop destroying them! Dad gave those to me! Please, I won't betray you. Please, stop destroying them!" Chris yelled and suddenly Wyatt stopped in the middle of stepping on one.
Wyatt smirked at Chris once more before kicking some pieces towards him. "I'll do worse next time, Chris. Maybe next time I'll actually hurt you. Have fun with your toys, Chris." Wyatt said throwing a handful of broken pieces and ashes at his brother before orbing out with a laugh. Chris quickly ran to the remains of his toys and clutched the broken pieces to his chest knowing if he held the ashes, it would dirty his clothes and his mother would throw a fit. He hovered his hand over the broken remains hopefully knowing that Wyatt had healed his own broken toys but the healing glow never came. Frustrated, he threw some pieces at the wall before running over and retrieving them again.
"I'll teach you, Wyatt." Chris muttered reaching for one of Wyatt's toys but quickly stopped remembering what Wyatt had said. Wyatt had actually threatened to hurt him. With a sigh, Chris gathered the pieces and ashes and put them in a carved box that he had gotten from his Aunt Paige for Christmas. It was a charmed box that only he could open. Not Wyatt. Not his mother. Not even his aunt Paige could open the box even though she was the one who cast the spell for him. The box held all the things that were dear to him.
What's in store for next time : The rest of the Halliwell family appear. Chaos is sure to happen.
Yes, I know Wyatt seems a little harsh but this is the Unchanged future, isn't it? Yes, Leo doesn't appear that often but don't worry, there'll be a future chapter that's based somewhat around Leo.
Will probably take a couple days to a week to update so don't get discouraged
