Chapter 1
Piper opened the door to her youngest son's room, everything was where it should be, where he had left it that fateful day he had been taken from them. She couldn't step into the room, the memories of his face, his smile was too much. She quickly closed the door and turned to see her husband silently watching her.
"7 years Leo, 7 years and we still don't know what happened to him. I miss him everyday, I just want to hold him once more, tell him I love him and that I am sorry. It's all my fault, if I hadn't of shouted at him, told him to stop getting in the way he would still be here!" Piper started getting hysterical and Leo rushed over to her and pulled her into a fierce hug.
"This isn't your fault! Whatever demon that took him is to blame, not you! Chris knew you loved him and still do, don't you ever blame yourself!" He hushed her and held her for what seemed like eternity until Piper stopped crying. This happened most mornings as she walked past his room, still expecting to see him stumble out of his room, his hair a mess and his clothes looking like they hadn't been washed in a week. They silently made their way downstairs and were greeted with the sight of the entire family waiting for them in the living room. Phoebe and her husband Coop were there with their 3 girls, Prue (16), Mel (14) and Penny (13). Paige and her husband Henry with their children, Connie (15), Henry Jr and Patty (13). Leo and Piper's eldest son Wyatt (24) was also there waiting for the couple.
"What's going on?" Piper asked to the room, she was automatically on edge, whole family meetings only occurred on special occasions or when something was wrong. It had been this way since Chris' disappearance, Piper found it hard to see everyone so happy when she was still mourning Chris. It was Wyatt who answered her question.
"We have thought of a way to find Chris, now before you say we have tried everything, I know but me and the troop (the family's nickname for all the second generation of Charmed One's) have been working on this for a while and want to give it a go. Please mum, we all miss Chris as much as you do and need to know what happened to him" Wyatt played his trump card, he used his big baby blue eyes on his mother, knowing she could never stay angry with him or refuse him anything.
"Wyatt, I know you all miss him but your aunts and I exhausted every avenue thinkable trying to find him, what is left to try?" Piper knew her son and his cousins meant well but she didn't want to get her hopes up just to have them dashed for the millionth time in the last 7 years.
"Well, it's a summoning spell, but with some extra juice and a bit of a fiddle around. Basically we are going to summon him by blood but add on the Power of Three spell." Wyatt beamed at her, he was convinced this was going to work.
"That's it! Your big idea, a summoning spell! Wyatt that won't work, I have tried, a million times!" Piper felt her heart crash down, despite not getting excited at the prospect of a new lead she had let herself have a glimmer of hope.
"Yeah but we are going to use everyone's blood, well everyone related by blood, make it stronger and more powerful, can we at least try, please! I want to know what happened to my little brother!" Wyatt had missed Chris everyday, sure 7 years ago he had hated his brother's constant buzzing in his ear but he hadn't felt whole without him.
"Ok, but if this doesn't work I don't want you all dwelling on this, we have to get on with our lives, it's what Chris would want, ok?" She looked at all her nieces and nephew as well as her own child who all nodded, eventually.
"Right, well let's get to work!" Wyatt jumped up and together with his cousins they set about getting everything they needed. Soon everyone bare Coop and Henry had pricked their finger and added a few drops of their blood to the bowl Wyatt had collected from the attic. "Right now everyone hold hands, you too uncle Coop, uncle Henry, I am going to say the spell, being the most powerful being here. I want all of you to focus your thoughts on Chris. Ready?" He looked around as his whole family took hold of one another's hands.
"Powers of the witches rise
Course unseen across the skies
Come to us who call you near
Come to us and settle here
Blood to blood, I summon thee
Blood to blood, return to me
The power of three will set you free
The power of three will set you free"
As Wyatt chanted each family member thought of Chris and every happy memory of him they could think of. Everyone had closed their eyes in concentration but quickly opened them when they heard the familiar chimes of someone being summoned. As they all watched in amazement they were quickly disappointed to see Grams materialise in front of them.
"Not who you wanted or expected I presume?" She asked at seeing the huge disappointment and sorrow cross everyone's face. "Let me guess, Chris?" At her words Piper burst into tears and slid to the floor in Leo's arms.
"I can't do this anymore Leo, I can't, it's killing me!" She racked with sobs into his chest and Wyatt felt guilty at putting his mother through this pain.
