The following day Chris wondered back into the manor sulkily. A lack of magic had resulting them having to drive home as apposed to simply orbing. He hadn't slept all night at the hospital because he feared the place. The sound of humming machines and other people hadn't helped matters.
The moment Leo and Piper had turned up to pick him up they continued their interrogation in an attempt to find out what had happened. This had automatically irritated Chris so he had chosen not to speak to them the whole journey back.
Walking into the manor his aunts immediately greeted, having not seen him since the incident. Both of them had taken the day of to try and figure out the magic loss. As a result the book of shadows was resting on the table in the living room and notes had been taken on countless sheets of paper. He doubted either had slept that night. Looking back at his tired parents he believed the same of them.
"What's wrong?" Phoebe questioned, her nephew hadn't returned the hug nor had he spoken yet. Chris looked at her blankly, slightly relieved she had lost her empathy power. He walked past her only to find Wyatt sitting in the lounge.
Piper and Leo followed him into the house, both sister watched Chris pass before looking back to his parents expectantly.
"Nothing!" Piper sighed, "…he refused to speak the whole way home."
Chris found Wyatt surprisingly chirpy yet could see his slight concern for him.
"How are you feeling?" he questioned.
Chris simply ignored him and took the book from the table in front of him, he began flicking through the pages only to find them all blank.
"It's like magic never existed!" Wyatt commented.
Chris still ignored him, continuing to turn blank page after blank page.
"Hey!" Wyatt objected, annoyed at being ignored. He place his hand down on the page so Chris was unable to turn it further.
The sisters and Leo entered the room, noting the brothers interaction.
"What did you do to him?" Wyatt accused.
Chris tried not to smile at the fact that his brother would always first accuse their parents. Piper however looked annoyed by the question.
"All we did was ask him what happened last night," Piper defended to her son.
Wyatt looked at them acceptingly before turning to his brother.
"Well?" he questioned. Chris maintained no eye contact in order to not give any detail away.
The sisters and Leo left the room claiming they had other things to do whilst fully understanding that if Chris was going to speak to anyone it would be Wyatt. Chris knew this was the reason too.
Chris felt himself sinking back into the seat, Wyatt gaze on him had yet to leave him. He still found himself unable to turn the pages.
Focusing eye contact on various objects around the room his gaze finally landed back to Wyatt. Fear laced his eyes.
His voice was quiet and held wisdom that he shouldn't have or understand.
"This was meant to happen Wyatt," Chris told referring to the loss of magic, "It was prophesised, the uprising…By forcing change from what happened he incurred a fate on himself forever. A fight against evil, he unwillingly was forced into the position. Evil claimed it would dispose of him, he posed great risk to them. It was said that disposing of the warrior would allow the world of good to spiral helplessly. The loss of magic came about as the transition time to prepare himself. The revelation would kill him or make him stand stronger. It said it all"
Wyatt looked at him blankly.
"Wyatt, this is my fault!"
