Last Time:
Piper screamed as she looked at the baby evil Chris was holding.
"No don't."
Chris just smirked over at her. "Easy there Piper, you don't want to blow up your sons do you?"
Chris then glanced over at his big brother with his dark jade orbs.
"Checkmate, Wyatt. It's your move so what is it going to be?"
Then in a shimmering glow of dark blue and purple lights Sharday, DJ now a.k.a Kehind, Kara, Evil Chris, baby Kara and baby Chris all disappeared.
Wyatt stood froze in the spot he was standing in. What was his next move? He had come back in the hopes of saving future Chris by saving baby Chris and now he had lost them both.

Chapter 2: Parting is Such Sweet Agony
By TaintedDarkInuShemeeko
Wyatt was frozen, to the spot where he was standing. He could vaguely hear Piper who was now fast becoming hysterical. Some of Chris's words just continued to repeat themselves inside of his head.
"Give it up Wyatt; you'll never save me because I don't want to be saved. I have everything I ever wanted. I have someone who loves me deeply with her whole heart and soul."
"Get to her; ha I've had her for months. She was there for me when you stole from me and she has stood by me."
"Checkmate, Wyatt. It's your move so what is it going to be?"
Chris had risked everything to save him once and in return he had failed him. He had failed his family and friends.
P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3
Piper's breathing was coming out in small breathes as she stared where her little peanut and the older young man she had come to know once, had been standing. Her eyes started to burn with an attack of tears. As the dam broke they started to shimmer free.
"Leo, Leo he took our son, how could he do that he took my little peanut. Chris just came from the future and took him, how could we let him do that?"
Leo's heart ached as he looked at Piper and then back at the spot where the new future Chris had been standing.
"I'm so sorry Piper, I failed him again."
Piper however wouldn't hear it. "No don't you dare blame all this on yourself. He's my son too so there must have been something I didn't see that I should have."
Piper then felt Phoebe's hand on her shoulder.
"I don't think it all belongs to just the two of you. I just got a whole lot of different feeling from the big Chris we just saw. I didn't feel anything that was directed at you Piper."
Before she could say more Leo spoke instead.
"Everything was pointed at me again wasn't it?"
Phoebe's chocolate pools looked sad at first before she gave Leo a small smile.
"There are some major issues with you and Chris again; but not all of what I was starting to feel was completely on you. However, Wyatt, Bianca and someone named Kristina now they are a different story."
P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3
Wyatt was knocked from his frozen state as a familiar hand touched his.
"I failed him Bianca, I have all these memories of what he did for me when I was on the other end and now I couldn't even save him in return."
Bianca couldn't believe what she was hearing
"We can do this Wyatt, we will find out what happened to him. Chris and I might not be together in this future, but that doesn't mean I don't care about him."
Wyatt didn't want to give up on his little brother. How were they going to save him, when had Chris moved his pieces ahead of him without them seeing it?
"How Bianca, how the hell are we going to do that when Chris just took his baby self hostage?"
Wyatt's anger at Chris and himself was so intense that one of Piper's crystal vases slammed into the wall.
"My bad, sorry about that mom I'll clean it up."
P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3
Chris flopped into a chair and put his feet up. Things were working out perfectly, his pawns, were in place all he had to do was to place his bishops, and knights; before his queen and him moved across the board. A few minutes later Kara Hartwell walked into the room.
"The babies are asleep Chris, you don't plan on keeping our baby selves here for long do you?"
Chris couldn't help but smile at her as he pulled her onto his lap. He kissed the small bump below her stomach where their child was growing, its powers showing slightly each day. He then looked up into her amber orbs of light.
"No, I wouldn't risk us like that my plans wouldn't work if I did. I just need our miniature versions long enough to see which pawns Wyatt plans on sacrificing."
Kara played with the diamond engagement ring and silver wedding band on her left ring finger. Then after a few seconds she decided to speak.
"What happens if your brother won't give up any of the pawns he has?"
"Well if my twice blessed super brother won't choose. Then I'll just have to pick out which pieces are to fall, for him. I may have to take a chance and go for his queen, or maybe the king himself. It's been a long time since Wy and I have played together it just might be fun."
Caressing her left cheek with his right thumb, he then guided her lips to his. Chris sifted Kara ever so slightly on his lap as he continued to kiss her. At first he had tried to fight the darkness that seemed to be consuming him. Then after several years of fighting a losing battle, Chris had found out that the darkness was a lot more fun then he would have thought.

Somewhere off in a distance plain. Several beings in silver cloaks were communing with one another. The shade of their skin made it look like, the silver cloaks they wore a part of their body as well.
"Things are working out better then we could have planned."
"Careful Zen, it is true that the youngest son of the eldest Charmed one is conforming well, with our plans. However we should never forget that he is a Charmed one as well. If he were to find our plain of existence he could destroy us all."
"Lyra is right; we could not have known that the boy's own father had been an Avatar. Nor, what that would do to his moral sense at what he witnessed."
However the taller of the five being known as Zen; didn't understand why all the other beings were on edge.
"What is there to worry about Cam? Chris is what we wanted, he could solve everything. Unlike what happen with the eldest child and the elder. Chris came to us willingly on the day before his sixteenth birthday. He knew of the demon that was going to kill his mother so this time he took things into is own hands."
Cam sighed as he looked across at Zen.
"I know that just as everyone else here knows that. However, he is not as power hungry as his brother was once. Christopher thinks things through, we mustn't give him cause to try and find us. We are to merely be a part of his conscious."
Lyra kept her hands tightly over a golden box.
"We must remember Zen to stay invisible to them all. If they were to find and return what we have taken from Chris; he will be of no use and we will have to start again."
A voice of a different woman then spoke.
"There is always Christopher Halliwell's unborn son. I am merely saying it could be our trump card if we need it. Evil or no, that child means everything to him. It is just as powerful as its uncle was at this time. Think what it would be if Kara were to give him a daughter. If we were to move time forward in the future; we could have her conceive a female witch with the right timing."
There were some squeaking and clicking sounds as the five mysteries silver figure continued to talk.
"I will give your suggestion some thought Rina, though we must be careful. Wyatt has already started to figure out that something has been taken away from his little brother. Though I will agree with Rina, a daughter born from Chris and Kara's union will be more promising. However, no harm shall come to his son. We want Chris and his family to embrace us; in order to help with the second coming."
"Mal, if what you say about the eldest brother is true. Perhaps we could send a few distractions to the past where he is now?"
The being known as Mal just nodded. "Yes perhaps we should, for now we will just sit, watch and wait."
P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3
"I want answers mister and I want them now!"
Wyatt couldn't help but wince at the pitch of Piper's voice.
"It depends on what you want to know, you know. If Mel or Chris found out I told you about the future they'd kill me."
Wyatt pressed the palm of his right hand to his forehead, as he realized his slip up.
"Sorry, I still see him yelling at me about future consequences or personal gain; it was just what he did. Mom's little angel, and now he's I don't know what he is."
Bianca's voice was firm yet sad as she answered him.
"He's lost Wyatt, but at least he hasn't torn the city apart. I think Kara is the reason for that."
Paige then decided to jump into the fray.
"Ok, so how about we just go and take Kara hostage and demand a trade; Baby Chris and Baby Kara for Kara?"
Wyatt could feel a major headache coming on.
"Are you trying to get my future destroyed completely? I'm trying to save it and Chris. Not turn him into something so crazed he can't be saved."
Wyatt's words seemed to confuse his family from the past.
"What's that suppose to mean?" Phoebe asked
"It means that Chris's devotion to Kara and his unborn child isn't that different from what Dad would do to protect or save Mom or his sons."
Wyatt groaned as he rubbed a hand over his face.
"I'll have to do the one thing that will probably get me killed; and that is to try and summon my evil brother back to the past."
Up in the attic Wyatt placed the candles he needed in a circle around the crystals that would hold Chris. He then glanced over at Piper, Leo, Phoebe and Paige. Bianca walked over and stood beside him.
"Well here goes. I kind of mixed the summoning spell with the, to call a lost witch spell. Not to mention I tweaked it a little here and there. So I'm not sure if it will work or which Chris we'll get. "
"Here now these words,
hear my pray through space and time.
Bring me my brother Christopher.
Wyatt cut the end of his finger and let his blood drip into the caldron.
Blood to blood, I summon thee,
Blood to blood, return to me."
Piper however was hoping that the spell would call baby Chris back to them, but something told her that the spell would most likely not to work at all. They all were about to get their answer went sparklingly white and gold lights appeared inside the crystal cage.
P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3P3
The evil Chris from future appeared inside the crystal cage. The clothes he was wearing now were casual and clean. A deep hunter green dress shirt that had the top four buttons open; were followed by a pair of blue jeans that had the button and zipper down. Chris's feet were bare as well.
"Great this is just great, you summoned me. Not that I didn't expect it after all you are Wyatt Halliwell the golden child of one of the Charmed Ones. I will have to say that you have bad timing, Wyatt. I was kind of in the middle of something, and if anything happens to Kara while I'm here with you people. I will kill you Wy make no mistake."
Chris then happened to look down at the crystal cage that he was in."
"You have got to be kidding me."
Without any warning one of the crystals slid across the floor; and stopped behind Wyatt. Everyone watched as the crystal started to tremble on the floor. It then started to glow blue, no one but Bianca had realized the danger Wyatt was in.
"Wyatt, get away from the crystal!"
Her cry however had come too late. In four strides Chris now stood in front of Wyatt.
"This was your move come on. You can do better then this."
Chris made a wide circle with his arms to indicate the crystals.
"When you were a baby all you had to do was blink your eyes and a demon would explode so come on. Just reach out and use your powers on me. There's nothing wrong with them, or have you forgotten how to use them? Here I'll show you how it's done."
"Just focus on what it is you want to do, and then you just let your power flow through you."
Chris held out his hand and then acted like he was going to reach out toward Wyatt; before closing it into a fist. One of Wyatt's hands shot up to grabbed at his throat.
"See just like this; tell me Wy how does it feel? You know to have you're air way cut off. Does it bring back memories of a long forgotten past, when you did the same thing to me?"
Wyatt refused to fight Chris, he let his feet hang in the air as Chris used he's telekinesis to lift his big brother into the air. A choking sound came from Wyatt as he tried to talk to Chris.
"Ch-ris come on. This is stupid you don't want to hurt me."
"Don't I, after everything you and dad made me go through; I think I deserve a lot. It's the one true reason that he had to pay."
Piper gasped as she noticed that Wyatt's face was turning red and purple was slowly being added to it as well.
"Christopher Perry Halliwell, you let go of your brother right now. You're choking him, so stop it."
Piper felt her heart drop to her stomach, as Chris smirked at her.
"That's the general idea, Mom."
Just then Bianca ran forward hoping that she could stop him from killing Wyatt. As Chris spoke Bianca was hoping that she could sneak up on Chris.
"You know, I had really planned on getting you out of the way first."
His dark jade eyes then caught sight of Bianca.
"However, I think it would be best if I took your queen out first."
Chris lifted Wyatt up higher in the air before throwing him backwards out of the cage. Wyatt cried out as the hot blue currents from the negative crystals burned him causing his shirt to burn as he shot through it. Once Wyatt was out of the way, Chris turned his attention to Bianca.
"So, beautiful yet ruined at the same time."
Using one hand to stop Bianca in her tracks with his telekinesis, he used his other one to strike out at her. Bianca couldn't help but scream as a bolt of blue lightening stuck her body as Chris held her up in the air.
"Parting is such sweet agony, isn't. Then again we've been here before haven't we?"
Leo, Piper, Phoebe and Paige were all frozen with surprise and a little bit of fear as they saw the new destructive power Chris seemed to have full control over. Leo glanced down at his hands, if he had never agreed to be an Elder, but then he thought of the new powers he had just come into. Was he really responsible for this monster that his youngest son had become? This was not the Chris that he remembered from before.
Chris then suddenly threw Bianca at Wyatt knocking the young man to the floor. With a snap of his fingers five of Chris's followers appeared. He pointed to Wyatt and unconscious Bianca as he spoke to them.
"Deal with them for me, show them how empowering me can help them greatly."
Piper and Leo threw their hands up and were ready to fight when Chris turned to them.
"I don't think so; I can't have the four of you interfering in my plans."
Waving his hand at his family from the past, Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Leo disappear in a zap of dark blue light. Wyatt watched as his family disappeared, anger filled his whole body as he struggled to stand after being hit.
"Chris! What did you do to them?"
Chris smirked at his big brother, his eyes just as cold as the first time he appeared. He then smiled as he looked at Wyatt.
"Their safe for now, besides if I killed him now it would ruin things. I just couldn't have them interfering. When Zara, Cal and the others are done with you I'll have what I want. Trust me once you and Bianca understand you'll forget all about saving me."
"The winds are in my favor right now, so please don't make me call Odin. You know how much I hate dealing with darklighters; then again he's not a normal darklighter."
Suddenly Chris staggered backwards and brought a hand to his lip. When took it away two of his fingers were covered in blood.
"Finally, I finally managed to piss you off enough for you to use you powers on me. Well good for you Wy. This pacifist you was really starting to get annoying but you knew that didn't you bro. Well it's been fun as always we really should do this sometime soon; if you can make it out of here alive."
Then in a violence swirl of purple and blue light, Chris started to disappear.
"Admit it, that your little brother has you up against a corner and all of this could go much smoother."
Wyatt's eyes were torn from his brother's fading image as a kunai suddenly cut into his side. This was just great, Bianca was unconscious and he had used a lot of energy to attack Chris so now he was forced to play duck and cover.
'Damn, why did Chris have to be such a whiz at potions and spells?'
Wyatt then glanced over at the Book of Shadows.
'If I can get a little closer to the book, I could then just orb the three of us out of the attic long enough to regroup. Not to mention figuring out where he orbed mom, dad and the aunts too.'
Whatever Chris had done to the crystal cage had really done a number on him. It was almost as if it had sucked all the energy from his body.
"Ok, saving my little brother is not the walk in the park I thought it would be. I guess I should have listened to Aunt Paige about teasing him. He's gotten better at playing chess that's for sure."
Wyatt was panting hard after deflecting one of the enemy witches' attacks. He had just barely managed to orb the book to him. Taking a quick hold of Bianca's body, Wyatt disappeared in a shimmer of blue and white lights; leaving five very stunned witches in his wake.
