Now on with Chapter 3!
"Roy was twelve, Tale was ten and Chris was nine." Bianca swallowed thickly glancing at her companions. Roy made a gesture with his hand telling her to go ahead. "We were- are part of a race called Senior Imperium. Please don't interrupt." She said noticing Phoebe's mouth open for a retort. She quickly closed her mouth and sat back against the cushion. "Senior Imperium is Latin for Elder controlled." She sighed, before closing her eyes. "Back in 1959 the Elders began to plan a way to make witches run their way, and their way alone. They began asking parents who had found out that their child was magical to give up their children to them. The parents had to sign a contract, one that stated that the parents would forget all about these children and that the Elders would raise their children. They sighed over all parental and legal rights to the Elders.'
"In 1998 they somehow pawned demons into joining their group. Demons began mass creating their own Senior Imperium, although they were called Everto Imperium (1). I hate to say this but the demons were nicer to the youth that they took in. Up until 2010, no one had ever tried to cross the Elders path, and no one knew the real intent of the Elders. The Elders would put in powers as well as extract them." Bianca sighed heavily; she stood up from her chair and stood in front of the window, gazing out across the lawn.
"In 2010, the Charmed One's were attacked by a demon. They of course looked this demon up in their Book of Shadows, finding out his name. Luckily, there was a vanquishing spell, so they went on their merry way to go vanquish his ass. When they arrived they found one child dead, the demon was leaning over them, holding their head in their hands. The Charmed One's were pissed…"
########## Flashback ###########
"What are you doing?" Phoebe Halliwell spoke coldly to the tall demon. He turned around sharply, claw marks were formed down his dark cheeks. Piper glared at the demon holding out the spell for her sisters to start chanting.
"She shouldn't have disobeyed." The demon had muttered. Paige stopped in her chanting, getting a hit in the arm by Piper.
"What do you mean disobeyed?" She asked catching her sister's attention. The demon looked at her with dark bumblebee yellow eyes.
"She shouldn't have disobeyed her Elder. That's the reason she's dead, she shouldn't have told the others to runaway, she caused herself death."
######### End Flashback ##########
"… Of course none of the Charmed One's had known what he meant and immediately began to chant the spell again, storing away the information for later."
"Who was that girl?" Paige asked her voice stern.
Melinda shared a glance with Tale and Roy. "My sister." Roy grunted obviously angry. "Hannah." Paige nodded.
"I'm so sor-"
"No! Not now! Let me finish!" Bianca snapped, clearly angry, she turned around and glared at the woman. Paige sat back in her seat, her brown eyes wide. "Later on in that year they began hearing more and more about these children being disobedient, but they thought nothing of it, just believing that it was all just a rumor, I mean the Elders wouldn't hurt children would they?'
"I don't know what happened because Chris refuses to talk about it, but later on in that week he received a white lighter. One who was divested with what was happening to us." Bianca sighed, before looking at the two eldest sisters. "If I could tell you who it was I would.'
"But this woman had ties with the Charmed One's and she went against her orders to warn them of what was happening. They believed her right off. Piper contacted Leo, begging him to tell her more about these children, to help them. He blew her off, telling her that he would try. However, once he came to our training camp he blew up everything in sight. Ruining it beyond a fixing point. Tale was always very protective of Chris, so when Leo tried to grab him, Tale got in the way. Leo called in a fellow Elder.'
"The Elder's name was Gideon…" Bianca sighed. "He was Leo's mentor… and Tale was his Senior Imperium. Gideon ordered Tale to step out of the way and allow Leo to punish Chris whatever way he saw fit. Tale tried to stop him, he really did, and Roy and I tried to get involved but off our Elders were there, ordering us all to stop and let Leo punish him. Chris was- is the youngest. It was too painful for anyone to interfere. Our brandings would start to burn, some of us even died because we would not give in. Tale, Roy and I fainted… I don't remember anything past then… except waking up at the Halliwell Manor, and very eager Charmed One's looking down at us…"
######### Flashback #########
"What happened?" Bianca asked once they were all in the sitting room. The sisters shared a glance, communicating through their eyes. Roy sat stubbornly next to the eldest of the three; Tale snuggled comfortably into Phoebe's side. They had become quite attached in the past few days that Bianca was out.
"We followed Piper's husband to your hideout… should we call it that?" Paige began when her sisters nodded.
"It is- was a training camp." Roy grunted, staying firmly in his seat, his long red hair falling haphazardly into his eyes.
The sisters shared another look. "When you all started screaming in pain, Phoebe passed out from the emotions she was getting." Piper stated.
Phoebe shuddered. "So much pain and sorrow." She squeezed Tale closer to her.
"When the Elder's noticed us they orbed away, I managed to blow and injure some of them, but you know how they are… they just come back." Piper sounded angry with herself. "Some of the others have been given into groups in the magical community, so don't worry."
Bianca finally noticed that someone was missing. "Where's Chris?" She asked, not even bothering to hide the fear in her voice.
The sisters eye brows furrowed. "Chris?"
"The one that we were all protecting dumb ass!" Roy yelled jumping off the couch.
"Watch your language young man!" Piper yelled right back, catching the twelve year old off guard. "Now sit back down." He sat obediently, used to receiving orders and following them.
"We tried scrying for the little man, but the crystal keeps landing in the ocean." Paige said. "I think the Elders did something to block us from finding him. They have cut us off. They won't even answer us when we call."
Bianca's eyes were wide. "In the ocean you say?" She asked slowly.
"Yeah. Right smack dab in the middle of the ocean." Phoebe said just as slowly.
"No way would they send a nine year old there!" Tale shouted, startling the sisters.
"I think those bastards would." Roy muttered, sending Piper a slightly scared look to see if he would be yelled at for his language again, but it seemed as if she had not noticed.
"Send him where?" Piper said getting fed up.
"Valhalla..." Bianca stated anger shining in her voice.
####### End Flashback #######
"They sent him to Valhalla?" Phoebe asked disbelievingly. Piper sat shocked in her seat, while Paige had begun shaking from sadness, trying not to cry.
"Yes. And we didn't see him for up to four years after that." Roy said somehow managing to keep his voice calm.
"Tale was adopted by Phoebe, while Bianca and I were taken in by Piper. Wyatt and Bianca almost immediately hit it off, while Phoebe's daughter Colleen and I became good friends." Roy said once again, when no one tried to fill in the gap of silence that followed.
"What happened after you found him?" Paige asked gaining some control over her emotions.
Bianca looked at her sadly. "He was different, not that joyful little boy he used to be. Valhalla changed him; he no longer looked for good in people. Chris was tough, he never cried. He showed no emotion and Paige was determined to break him out of this trance he was in, he never talked, he barely ate and he never smiled. Paige finally got him to talk, but we never knew what he said. He began talking to Melinda, they became like twins, wherever you found one, you found the other. Chris still wasn't the same, but he had healed some.'
"When he was missing you three began to create a Republic. All magical creatures who did not like the way these children were being treated began to form a union. That union included: witches, nymphs, elves, vampires, werewolves, seers, gypsies, good and bad magical creatures, and most of all demons. When the Elders caught whiff of this plan they began to attack. Their first attack was in Magic School during one of your meetings.'
"You were all ready for them, and you attacked back in full force, hiding their Senior Imperium from them. You had managed to capture nearly half the Elders, and you all took away their powers, storing them for future Elders, and threw them in jail, stripping them of their status. You all reveled magic, and unified all of America, so that everyone was equal. Everyone would be treated the same, they all had to follow the same laws as the mortals, the Declaration and what not. Any magical being would be stripped of their magic when they were put in jail. The remaining Elders were in hiding, however in April they attacked.'
"Paige had adopted Chris, and he lived happily with her husband, her children and her. Wyatt and he had been becoming considerably close over the years. Wyatt was… I believe around sixteen when the Elders, in front of Chris's eyes, murdered Paige. No, it was not just any Elder, no, it was Leo Wyatt, Chris's Elder. Chris belonged to him, and he was so unused to the pain that happens when you disobey that he could not fight back for that long when Leo ordered him to come with him.'
"Piper and Phoebe continued to run the Republic even when Paige had died, someone… new I guess I could say helping them complete the power of three. The world was finally happy, as they had signed treaties with Asia, Europe, Africa, Australia, The Americas and Antarctica. The Elders attacked once again a year later. More of them had died but they had killed Phoebe. Piper and the other one were the only ones left. When Wyatt turned eighteen the Elders attacked once more, Wyatt had been more focused on saving Chris, whom Leo had brought with them, than paying attention to his mother. Her own husband had murdered Piper.'
"Wyatt, in a blind rage, had injured Leo so much that he hadn't even thought of ordering Chris to follow him. He had just orbed out of there, and he had not returned until a few months ago. Leo went back to his old tactic of trying to convince Wyatt that he was evil, but very few people believed him. Most of the Elders are in jail. We did not want to kill them; we just stripped their powers and threw them in jail." The sisters sat back in their seats in a dead silence. Was that all true? Two of them were crying, while the other was in disbelief.
"When did Wyatt and Chris get together?" Phoebe questioned once she had stopped her tears.
"Chris had snuck out a few times before Piper died and they got together somewhere between there, I think." Melinda answered when it seemed no one else would.
"Why would they do that?" Piper asked, her voice shaking with suppressed emotion.
Roy shrugged helplessly. "We don't know."
"So than why's Chris trying to protect Wyatt?" Paige asked the question that was on everyone's minds.
"That's what we're wondering." Tale whispered, glancing up at the roof, where, no doubt, Chris and Wyatt were.
A: N- Okay well that's chapter is done. Nice and long too. I hope that explanation surprised you. Sorry, there was not any Chris and Wyatt interaction in this one. There will be more in the next one, promise.
Question- How many of you expected something like that explanation to happen? I honestly want to know if I surprised any of you.
