Summary: His younger brother is in the past. Trying to save him, but he wouldn't believe in it. He needed to see if he was alright and doing fine. But what he saw made him question all his beliefs.
7. My and his destiny
MAGIC SCHOOL – 2004
After Wyatt had solved his problems with his little brother he'd left him alone, to find out what Gideon was up to. He knew that the man was playing with his family, but in all his baby self was here in day-care. His invisibility helped him to follow the mentor of his father and found very interesting that he had contact to some darklighters. But why he couldn't get.
"I want you, guys, to distract Leo when I say it's time," Gideon spoke to the leader who looked anything but pleased to follow an order, given by an Elder.
"I say we'll follow this order. What would we get out of it? We don't like follow orders, especially from an Elder! What's your goal after all?" the leader asked, looking the man over.
"You won't fear the Twice-Blessed in the future, to come after you and all other demons. I know from a safe source that he's going to be evil. I only want to prevent this."
"Okay. But who you're going to say anything about it?"
"No one. It's my secret and one of my colleagues. You hear from me," Gideon said before orbing out.
The darklighters shook their heads but they had no other choice if they want to live further. After a few minutes the black men also dark orbed out and left their invisible visitor alone. The future ruler had discovered a shocking secret of Gideon and knew how and who he will attack. He had to prevent that – successfully.
In the moment he wanted to go after the Elder, Wyatt was stopped by an invisible force. Looking up the older brother saw the Angel of Destiny standing in front of him. He was furious that he was interrupted by saving his baby brother from death. "What are you doing here? I have some things to go after, you know!"
"I know what you want to do, Wyatt and I fully accept it, but you can't interfere with Chris' destiny. He has his task like you have your own," the Angel spoke to the blond man.
"And what's that? I don't want Chris to die, only to save me! He is my little brother and I am the one who shall protect him for his whole life!"
"I understand you, son. I really do, but you can't do that. He's here to save you, but you should only stay where you've been. In the future, to wait for the change. With that I beg you to leave. Otherwise you have to face me and other magical beings," the Angel said before going away.
Defeated and crying the older male slipped down the walls of the cave. He had discovered something to help Chris and now he should leave, so that his baby brother could die saving him. There was no way he'd allow that. It's originally him Gideon was after and not his little brother. He knew what he had to do, no matter what's in his way. He wasn't the Twice-Blessed witch for nothing. But at first he had to make sure Chris would be born.
MANOR – AT THE SAME TIME
Chris Perry was busy. Yet only one aunt knew his secret that in reality he was Chris Halliwell. Today it was worst. Phoebe had to question him about his future and why he had to split his parents up if he wanted to be born, anyway. After this little quarrel both found a letter where a woman asked for help. In the last moment they saw that the woman and man were tricked by a demon who was placed as a Genie. This could only mean trouble. The younger brother hoped Wyatt caused not anything here.
"Phoebe, really. I need help if I want to be born. My parents need to get together, fast or otherwise there would no me who comes back to the past to warn you about Wyatt," Chris pleaded, desperately. He knew from his age difference to his older brother that his conceiving date was Wyatt's first birthday.
"Chris, you can't play with people's lives, especially your parents. They were happy before you came in. Let's do it on my terms," the middle Charmed One argued. "Or should we let your brother come in. He's here to help you!"
"No way. But we could use the Genie to let them sleep together. I definitely am running out of time. Please Phoebe, help me!" Chris was so desperate that he used his pleading voice.
"You're my nephew, Chris, but we can't do it. You wouldn't be conceived on these terms, now would you? That's awful!" Phoebe turned to him and gave him a reassuring smile, hopefully to encourage him.
Neither of the two noticed how the youngest sister listened to their conversation and the Genie was still in her bottle. Or better again. Paige was happy to have another nephew. One who would save the world and the family. Sure, he was neurotic and reminded her, most of the time, of Piper. There was no other explanation that she was his mother. In the end she decided to let them know she was here.
"Hi guys. Something wrong and what's with the Genie? Do we still need her?" Paige asked in a sugary voice, so that no one would be suspicious of her.
Phoebe and Chris turned to her in shock. Looking at each other with a questioning gaze, both recovered quickly. It was the woman who spoke to her baby sister, "Hi Paige. Everything is clear and I don't know yet if we would still need her. What'd you think, Chris?"
The young whitelighter looked very nervous. His parents were god knows where and his aunts made jokes of him. "I don't believe we would need the Genie. I'll ask Leo later to get rid of her."
"Don't you mean 'Dad'?" Paige asked innocently.
Both aunt and nephew remained silent. The middle Charmed One found her voice quicker. "How much did you hear, Paige? But promise us, not to say anything to Piper or Leo, okay?"
"Enough and I promise." She turned Chris. "When's your birthday? Just to know when we need to think to get your parents together, you know."
"That is so you, Paige. It's time when we celebrate Wyatt's first birthday. But we can discuss this on another day," Chris pleaded and grabbed the bottle, indicating to leave soon and look for Leo. The Genie made him more nervous than all other things.
"Okay, dear nephew-of-mine. I think we both know, Phoebe and me, you want to leave now, right. This is embarrassing you. Don't worry, you'll be born in this family," Paige said, patting him on his upper arm before both women nodded.
The young whitelighter left the Manor in search at first for his father and then his older brother. He knew that his aunts would discuss him after he'd left, but most of it he feared his mother's reaction when she'd find out who he is. She was the closest person to him in his entire life.
Chris found his father at Magic School, together with his Mom. They wanted to take Wyatt out of the day-care when he'd spotted them, together and obviously still in love. He swallowed hard as he walked towards them. Still as an adult he hated to disturb his parents. Anytime, but to his luck his Dad spotted him first.
"Hey Chris, what are you doing here? Something wrong at the Manor, with Phoebe and Paige?" Leo asked, laying one arm around his wife.
"I'm here to give you a Genie bottle. Phoebe had found one, but we couldn't use her. And with Phoebe and Paige is everything okay. They're really fine," he said and blushed a bit.
Piper chuckled at his rare side of being embarrassed. "Chris, should we know something about you? You look a bit nervous."
"No, no. I'm fine. Go ahead and take Wyatt home. He wants to have his parents together," the boy said and added mentally, 'Just like me.'
Both parents looked stunned at their young whitelighter and friend. But they accepted his offer and went to get Wyatt. And in this moment both Piper and Leo realized they wanted more children together. Let it be another son or a daughter, like they'd seen years ago. Little did they know that their future child was standing in front of them.
"I'll go now and leave you two alone." Chris orbed away as soon as his parents had left the place. Now he needed to search for his older brother. Hopefully he'd done nothing bad and ugly.
P 3 – EVENING
Wyatt had returned to P3, still in tears. Life was so unfair to his baby brother and now he had to make a choice what wasn't really one. He knew what his wish was and intend to hold his own goal and wish. Sure, after a few moments he heard orbs filled the air and it was his little brother coming in.
"Hey Wyatt, what's wrong? Did something happen today? Why are you so sad?" Chris asked as soon as he saw his big brother in tears. Immediately he went to him and sat beside him, speaking soothing words to him.
That action made the older male laugh. "Who's here the older brother, hey? Anyway, everything is fine, Chris. You don't have to worry about me. I more worry about you and your conception date."
Again, the younger male blushed. "I know. Don't remind me please. So, what's bothering you? I know you my whole life, Wyatt. I can see the signs." He crossed his arms over his chest, to show what he meant.
The Twice-Blessed laughed only harder. "I love you, Chris. Don't ever change! And I won't tell you anything. It's better I go now before you say a spell on me!" He orbed and left his baby brother alone in the club while he went to a special cave in the underworld.
Chris looked after him but said nothing. He followed his task, to find the right date and who might be after Wyatt. He would make sure his older brother would stay on the good side this time, even when he would die to achieve his goal. Rather him than his older brother. His hero and best friend.
Wyatt was in his future safe cave and let his thoughts wander around. Too much he'd discovered today. That his Dad's mentor was after him, to get him leave the family and so there might no little brother with him growing up. And now he should go back to the future, leaving Chris alone to deal with all what he couldn't allow. He didn't care about destiny and all this crap. He wasn't the Twice-Blessed for nothing. He had made his choice.
