Chapter 10: Ending of Old; Beginning of New

A boy, around eight or nine, lay asleep in a dark forest green bedroom. Snuggled deep in the comforter, the only visible part of him was the golden brown hair. His dark skin hidden from the view of anyone. His eyes snapped open revealing that they were green mixed with hints of silver and gold. They sparkled with life, warmth, happiness, and of course mischief.

He grinned. Today he was nine!

He looked around the room, making sure he truly was the only one there. His grin got even wider as his body was consumed by warm flames. The flames were like a warm security blanket to him. The flames reappeared in the kitchen, slowly forming his body.

He threw his hands into the air. Four, sugar, chocolate, and other ingredients flew onto the counter. Along with the ingredients flew out bowls and other utinsuals that he would need. He giggled and lowered his hands.

He started to wash his hands when he felt two other presences in the room. He squinted his eyes, making two chairs pulled out and moved to face the kitchen island.

He got started on his chocolate cake. While his two guardians watched over him.

A couple of hours later, after the cake had been eaten or sent to his two cousins, Chris sat by himself waiting for his mother to come down. He had saved a piece for bother her and his older brother, Wyatt.

He yawned and closed his eyes, he had been up for a long time.

He was so tired that he hadn't even noticed his his mother come in.

"Peanut! Baby, what are you doing down here so early?" Chris's eyes snapped open. Kneeling in front of him was his mother. Her face full of concern. Her voice had been soft and soothing to him, like a lullaby.

He reached over for a piece of the cake and handed it to her with a sweet, innocent smile. "Here mommy! I made some cake." She started to laugh, pulling him into a bone-crushing hug.

'Of course my baby would be the only person to think of others on his own birthday.' She loved both her kids. She truly did. It was just, Chris was easier to love. He never met strangers, it wasn't possible. Everyone he met fell instantly in love with him. Sometimes it worried her. But she couldn't change who he was, and she was happy she couldn't. She loved Chris, even his sarcasm and neuroticness.

She grabbed the slice of cake her baby held and sat down beside him. "Happy Birthday Peanut!"

Just then the front door was slammed open. They both heard small feet hit the floor as the children ran to the kitchen, slamming that door open as well. Ladybug was the first to reach him. Throwing herself into his arms. He stood and swung her around. "Happy Birthday!!" She practically screamed, making everyone cover their ears. "Papa!" She whispered where only he could hear.

He looked at her strangely. 'Papa? Why did she calling me that? Maybe she had had a premonition again.' He released her and started picking up his other cousins and younger sister, twirling them around and giving each a kiss on their forehead.

Then he was given the same hug he got from his mom, by his aunts.

"Happy Birthday Spark!" His youngest aunt told him. Paige was the the first adult to find out about his Elder powers. After watching him use his Electrokinesis, she had started to call him Spark. She said it fit him.

Even though they never admitted it, he knew that when he used that power he reminded them of his father. So he never used it, at least never in front of them.

Next was his middle aunt. The one who could see into the future, his aunt Phoebe. She crushed him into her body and held onto him tight. "Happy Birthday Angel!" She whispered. "I just wanted you to know...we all believe in you." Her eyes started to water, so she hid her face in his shoulder. "Your journey in live will be a lot harder than any of of us could have ever imagined. But I know you can handle it, after all your a Halliwell. Halliwell's can handle anything. And your the strongest of us all." She got a little chocked up. "Angel....your going to be a wonderful dad! And remember, you can't change the past. You can only change the present." She finally lifted her head out of his shoulder and looked him in the eyes. "We will always love you. No matter how they treat you, always remember that. You are the Light that keeps us all going!" She kissed his forehead and stood up, whipping her tears away.

Chris didn't know what to say or to even do.

"Phoebe? Whats wrong?" Piper questioned her.

Phoebe didn't answer right away. She took a deep breathe and shook her head, "Nothing Pip!" She gave Chris a watery smile, "Just can't believe how much he has grown! Soon he will have to face the world. And I still want to see him as a baby."

Paige and Piper looked at her strangely. "Pheebs....Chris is only nine...he has tons of years before he has to face the world." Paige responded. Phoebe only looked at Chris sadly, yet the love in her eyes for him shinned even brighter.

The door was then slammed open, and in walked the oldest of Piper's children, Wyatt. Chris looked over at him and ran up to him. "Hey Wy!! Can you guess what day it is?! Huh?!" He questioned him.

Wyatt, still being half asleep, put him into a headlock and gave him a nuggie. "Shut it brat! I'm tired." He told him. If it were anyone else Wyatt would have beat them to a bloody pulp, but this was Chris. The one he would always care about.

Chris pouted, "Aww! I can't believe you forgot my birthday Wyatt!" His eyes turned huge and filled with tears. He started to tremble.

Wyatt rolled his eyes and gave into his younger brother. He couldn't say no to him. No matter how hard he tried. "Course I remembered your B-day, Cherub. Don't insult me!" He told him teasingly. "Now stop with the fake waterworks would you." They both started to laugh.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

Everyone was having a great time. Chris's party was going great. He had just opened his presents and was about to eat more cake, this one made from his mother.

That is until he felt the air shimmer around them. He also heard someone orbing in. They all looked up to see Demons and Darklighters everywhere.

"Wyatt! Orb everyone out of here! Now! Don't come back until one of us calls you!!" Piper barked out her commands at him. He immediately did as he was told. He didn't realize until he was at their grampa's that, he had forgotten Chris.

XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOX

"Chris what are you still doing here?!" Paige screamed at her youngest nephew, while moving out of the way of a Darklighter's arrow.

"Leave now Chris!" Piper screamed dodging a Demon's attack.

Phoebe said nothing, just continued to fight.

Chris didn't make any moves to leave, only attacking the enemies.

Suddenly he froze. He turned his head slowly to look at his mother. She stood there with a hole through her heart. Behind her, in the wall, all covered in blood, was a Darklighter arrow. Blood was gushing out of her body rapidly. Poison spread through her body like wildfire. Her lips were stained blood red as blood came flowing out of her mouth. Her body shook as she fell to the ground. Her once full of life brown eyes were now a dull, lifeless gray.

Chris's body wouldn't move. Until he heard his youngest aunts scream. He swung his head in her direction.

Her screams were coming out chocked. It was as if she was drowning. She started to claw at her throat. Three Darklighters shot arrows at her. They pierced her heart, throwing her to the ground. They were shot in so deep that they held her to the ground. The poison slowly paralyzed her body, making her chock even more. She stopped screaming, he body twitched for a slip second then stopped moving completely.

He tried to move, but found that he couldn't. He looked down recognizing the crystals that had formed a cage around him, only these crystals were an ugly black color.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!" His other aunts scream pierced the silent room. He looked over at her and flinched away. His aunt was being burned. She had told him about the time that her future self had been burned. She had told him that after she had experienced that, that it had been her biggest fear. And yet here she was withering in pain and agony from the flames that tortured her. After what seemed like forever, she stopped screaming and fell to her knees. She burning and withering in pain, she turned her head towards him and said, "Never forget." She gasped for a little more air. "We are always with you." Her body finally meet the ground as it continued to burn.

The crystals were removed, not that he even noticed. One of the Demons reached down and gripped his chin, harshly. "Happy Birthday my lord!" All of them let out a long, hard laugh. It was harsh and bone chilling. The Demon let go of him and they all watched as he fell to his knees. They all left in the same way they had come.

Chris sat there on his knees looking at the lifeless bodies of his mother and aunts. His eyes were no longer held anything they once had held. They were now a dull, plain green. His shiny hair was now dull. Everything about him was dead.

He had nothing left to live for.

red*robin: Thanks for the review! LOL, yeah i wanted Wyatt to be possesive of Chris, it was to cute to pass up. I wish we had got to see more of Chris's past!

Star Mage1: Thanks for the review! Your right, Wyatt won't go back in time til he knows for sure that everything is ready for when Chris comes back. The reason Wyatt had a change of heart is because his mother now knows who Chris REALLY is. He doesn't have to pretend anymore. After all, Chris didn't come through a portal when we first meet him in Season 5. He orbed in. I wanted to make it where he had come ealier, and got Wyatt to help him with his plan. Sorry if that doesn't make sense. I'll put in the story.....somewhere in there, lol. And I wanted Ladybug to be realy close to Chris in this story, I did the same thing in my other Charmed story.
