CHAPTER TWO
"Don't tell me… SHE'S your back up?"
"Yep. As simple as that."
Anabel answered for Chris. Sharply and with confidence, yes she had gained her breath back. She was standing there across from Wyatt, standing beside Chris. Her chest still heaving but not as much as it was before. She looked towards Chris before back at Wyatt.
"Pathetic."
"We'll see."
Both Chris and Anabel spoke at the same time, gaining a look from Wyatt but then he sniggered. Anabel didn't think Wyatt would hurt her. Maybe she was wrong. But, just maybe she was right. Yes, we'll see she guessed. Her hand clenched into a fist. She was of course concerned at what this might do to her - she didn't want to die. She couldn't leave James without her. Especially when Wyatt didn't' know he even existed.
"I told you not to come."
Chris told her.
"I know."
She smirked at Chris as she looked back at Wyatt, almost as if she knew what she was doing. Yet… honestly? She was faking it. She didn't have a single clue. This was almost child's play. Making it up as she went along. She was standing strong. Just as Chris was though… He wasn't going to let anyone else get hurt like his Bianca was.
Anabel looked around the room. She had to say… everything was ruined. She remembered the last time she was in this room… that day... when she was ten. It was before Wyatt had turned evil. She knew, because they were in the room together when Leo had announced to them that Piper had been killed. Yes, it was a demon attack… but it was what was going on BEFORE that… when they were actually happy…
'Do you think I'll ever learn to control my empathy?'
'I'm sure of it.'
'But it was okay for you, Wy… you controlled yours easily.'
She still didn't know how to control it. The feelings of all three of them were soaring through her at times. Chris the strongest, she had to stop herself from giving him a hug from the remorse and pain he was feeling at the loss of Bianca. She also had the feelings of hate, which were seething from Wyatt. There were also a few feelings that confused her as well… she wondered… were they her own?
One of those feelings was a strong feeling of love.
Yes, even though all this had happened. She still loved Wyatt, and remembered, the moments they shared together. They had only been together a few times in their life. She loved him since she was little… but he never fully loved her. She guessed that… seeing as he never did ask her out properly, she was there for sex and that seemed to be all. Oh well. She got a son out of it… from their last act of… love… or lust on his case.
Yes she did feel a little dirty. They last made love when… when he was evil.
"Ana?"
"S-Sorry."
Yes, it was bad to get distracted in this sort of situation.
His smirk…
That was what it was.
That was what captured her that night. That was the night when James was conceived. He had taken her into his arms and looked at her, intimidating her. She was never good in tough situations with her lack of powers, but she knew, with her empathy, that he had no intention of hurting her. In fact it was quite the opposite, actually.
That kiss… He was angry…
When he first kissed her that was what made her give in. The fire that built up, that made one thing led to another. She was confused after they were done. He had asked her to join him. Yes, you did hear right. That night, Wyatt had actually asked Anabel to turn and be with him on the side of evil. Yet, she declined.
But he didn't hurt her. In fact, if she didn't know any better. He was upset that she said no… He dark orbed out. Wyatt, when evil, never shimmered. He dark orbed. It was weird really. But she didn't let anything faze her. You see…
This was why she knew she wouldn't get hurt here in this fight.
She knew, looking at Wyatt, that he wouldn't hurt her. If her saying no to turning with him upset him, then maybe he wouldn't hurt her. Maybe for once, she was seeing that he actually loved her. That was all she wanted to ever see. She knew what love was. She knew this from feeling it from others around them. She originally felt with her parents. Phoebe and Coop were the real deal. Then Bianca and Chris.
They were so in love at first. After she turned good to be with him. Then she broke his heart. She felt it all even if he was meant to be in the past. Yes, Chris and Anabel had a close connection. That close so their feelings intertwined. He didn't have empathy, so hers never fazed him. She only felt his. She wished that she could have killed Wyatt then, the first time she had ever wanted to kill him. Because it was Wyatt's fault that Bianca turned evil again and hurt Chris.
But again, how can you want to kill the one you love?
She just didn't know…
"ANA!"
Chris yelled at her. He was startled. Taken back that his little cousin would get drawn in on her emotions like he had been. Chris had thought that Anabel would have taken this seriously. At least it looked like she was going to. He knew how she felt about his big brother. But he knew she wasn't meant to take it into consideration at this very important time. This was one of the biggest moments in their lives.
Life or Death
"You are making this too easy."
Whatever. Chris looked towards Wyatt, who was holding another energy ball. Wyatt was going to lunge it towards one of the two and he knew which one it was most likely to be. Him. He looked around to see what he could use to defend against the energy ball. All he could really think about was his telekinesis. That would probably have to be it.
Anabel was moving around the room, yet he was standing in the same place. Yes, making him an easy target. Well, he couldn't really let Anabel get hurt, could he? Even if he couldn't control what his brother was thinking. All he thought though, was… how could a brother do this? No. How could HIS brother do this? Wasn't everything bad enough as it was before he turned evil? Well maybe Wyatt thought it wasn't.
Chris wasn't expecting Wyatt's next move, and neither was Anabel, and that was when the energy ball actually soared towards her. With her not expecting it, she wasn't quick enough to defend herself. A direct hit sent her to the ground. Chris, as much as he wanted to, didn't run to her. He knew that was what Wyatt wanted. He saw that she seemed to be okay… it was just her arm that got hit. She was clutching at it, but who wouldn't be? It had to hurt like hell.
"You okay?"
A single nod of the head and then Chris saw that glint in Anabel's eyes. The one were they were glowing for the power of her telekinesis. Want to learn a secret? Well even though all three of them had the power of telekinesis, Anabel's was the strongest. What she lacked for in quantity she made up for in quality and even Wyatt couldn't say that was wrong. Chris watched, shocked or stunned, at Anabel was she raised her good arm up in the air and Wyatt banged into the wall, falling down hard. Was he unconscious? Chris wasn't sure, but took the chance at running towards Anabel.
"Wow…"
"Grow up. I can do so much better."
"Modest?"
He gained a look off of Anabel and knew when to quit with the humour. She was right to mentally tell him now wasn't the time for jokes. They both looked at Wyatt, who seemed to be out cold but she reminded him not to believe it because Anabel knew that when he was evil, Wyatt could be cunning. Yes, he knew how she knew that. Not that he wanted to know, of course. Chris looked at Anabel.
"You sure you want to risk this?"
She nodded.
"What about-"
Anabel gave him a glare before throwing her hand over his mouth, startling him. Then he realised. Why hadn't he noticed it before? Anabel never told Wyatt about James. Didn't Wyatt even notice she was pregnant? She might have not have gained much of a bump until the last semester of her pregnancy but he was sure Wyatt had saw her during the nine months. Maybe he was wrong. But Chris thought even if he was evil, Wyatt deserved to know that he had a son. Maybe James would have been enough to bring Wyatt back to the good side.
Maybe…
Such a strong word, that yes, Chris overused. Anabel raised her eyebrow as she removed her hand and Chris indeed had shut up. Anabel sighed, looked and saw Wyatt was still supposedly unconscious there was no way. She didn't trust him… Chris just stared at her, wondering what was now going through her mind. He wasn't a strong telepath and only had telepathy to communicate with his charges, so it wasn't like he could ask her what was up mentally anyway.
"What if…"
… 'He's hurt.'
She knew she had thought the last part. So Chris wouldn't have heard her, but for some reason, Anabel had taken in to some sort of… she didn't know how to explain it… it was just now she was scared that her love was hurt. For some reason, the fact that he was evil, had just soar out the window. She actually was starting to think he might have gotten hurt. By HER attack. She took a step back.
"Is he…"
"Ana. He's probably faking."
Chris tried to reassure her but Anabel just had to be sure. She started to advance on Wyatt's seemingly still body. Chris, of course, tried to stop her but she told him that she knew what she was doing. When, she still didn't have a clue. Something was just telling her to check on him. Wyatt might have gotten hurt when she through him into the wall. She knew people who nearly die from that sort of thing. Maybe the love she had for him was clouding her better judgement.
She really couldn't care.
"W-Wyatt?"
One hand on his shoulder and before she knew it, she had returned the fate of being thrown into a wall. All she remembered hearing was Chris shouting her name… She looked up from the opposite side of the room, blood trickling down from where her head hit the wall, Wyatt was now up and standing, almost smirking… maybe… maybe he didn't love her… maybe he was going to kill her…
"ANA!"
Once again Chris ran to her and helped her up as Wyatt chuckled. She cursed under her breath for being so stupid. Taking in by her emotions. Such a feminine thing to do, she knew. Honestly now her shoulder, head and arm were killing her but for some reason something was slowly taking the pain away. That was the thought of James. That she had to get back to him relatively in one piece.
God, she knew what Chris would be feeling.
That alone surely would have scared him into thinking she was going to end up like Bianca.
Heaven help us if she did…
