Chapter Ten
Alyssa could feel that something was wrong with Chris. She didn't know how to describe it, he was in pain.
"Piper I think we better get to your office." Alyssa said, knowing that is where Piper told Chris to wait. They made their way over to her office. Piper opened the door. They saw a lady with her hand stuck into Chris, which had a bright blue light shining from her hand.
"Chris." Alyssa said, she noticed the tattoo of the bird on the hand that was in Chris. She threw her hand up and the lady went flying before she could hit the wall, Piper blew her up. Chris fell to the ground. Alyssa rushed to his side.
"Thank goodness that you four are here?" Chris said trying to stand up.
"Who was that?" Paige asked.
"I don't know." Chris said looking at them. Alyssa could tell that he wasn't telling the truth. She didn't say anything.
"We better get home and start researching who that was, and why she was after Chris." Phoebe said.
"Look I am fine; Piper vanquished the demon end of discussion." Chris said.
"Chris we really should see who's aft-" Phoebe started.
"I said, I'm fine and Piper vanquished the demon, you guys shouldn't ruin your celebration because of me." Chris said. The girls all looked at him. They nodded their head. Piper who was holding Wyatt, Phoebe and Paige left the room. Alyssa stayed behind.
"Chris, I know that you're not telling the truth. I just want to te-" Alyssa started but didn't finished. Chris knew that the only way to protected Alyssa from Bianca was to be mean to her.
"Alyssa will you get off my back. I am not in any trouble. Don't try to ruin my day because you think that I am lying." Chris said harshly. Alyssa looked at him, tears sprung to her eyes.
"All, I am trying to do is to be nice to you. You don't need to rip my head off about it." Alyssa said as she turned and ran out the door to women's bathroom. 'That was odd Alyssa wouldn't go off crying like that she would push back. I have to deal with Bianca, right now. I will figure out what the matter with Alyssa later.' Chris thought to himself, as he orbed out to the bench in the park that use to be Bianca and his spot.
Bianca saw the four women walked into the office she was sort of surprised at seeing all four of them. It said that one of them was killed by a demon that was trying to get Wyatt at the park a few weeks ago. She was thrown away from Chris before she could finish stripping his power from him, then she was blown up. She left the room and she reformed right outside P3. The she smiled then she disappeared and reappeared behind a statue in the park a few feet away from the bench that was Chris and her spot.
Alyssa sat in the women restroom for about ten minutes before coming out of the restroom. 'I think that something wrong with me, I wouldn't let Chris upset me that easily.' Alyssa thought to herself. She went over to Piper.
"Hey Piper, I am going to head home, I am feeling a little tired." Alyssa said. Piper looked at Alyssa.
"Okay, would you mind taking Wyatt home and putting him to bed." Piper asked Alyssa.
"Sure, I don't mind at all." Alyssa told Piper. The playpen that Piper has set up for Wyatt has a sleeping Wyatt in it. Alyssa went to the crib and went to left him up.
"On second thought, you go on home. I will get Phoebe or Paige to take him home." Piper said. Alyssa straightens up and looked over at Piper.
"Are you sure?" Alyssa asked.
"I am sure." Piper said.
"Okay. I am off then." Alyssa said, as she left P3. Phoebe comes over to her sister side. "Where Alyssa off to, sis?" Phoebe asked.
"She's going home?" Piper said.
"Why didn't you let her take Wyatt with here?" Phoebe asked.
"She let Wyatt get kidnapped by The Circle." Piper said in a whisper.
"Piper, that's not her fault." Phoebe said.
"I know but, I don't want Wyatt to be turned evil again." Piper said.
"You know that you are going to have to trust her sooner or later." Phoebe said to her older sister.
"I know." Piper sighed. She took a moment to think about it then, she went back to work. Phoebe wanted a drink. She wasn't really thirsty she just wanted to meet the new bartender.
"Can I get a glass of water?" Phoebe asked the bartender. The bartender came over with her glass of water.
"Here you are Miss." The bartender said.
"Thank you." Phoebe said.
"Your welcome." The bartender said. He went back to work. He glanced Phoebe way every no and then and saw her watching him. Phoebe just watched him work. She made up her mind that she wanted to start dating again. The bartender walked by her again.
"Excuse me do you think I can get 7up?" Phoebe asked.
"Sure." The bartender said, as he got her drink.
"Thanks." Phoebe said.
"Your welcome. That will be $1.75." The bartender said. Phoebe got a dollar and 3 quarter out of her .She handed they to the bartender.
"By the way my name is Phoebe Halliwell." Phoebe said, as she watched the reaction the bartender would give her.
"My name is Cole Turner." Cole told Phoebe. Phoebe smile she knew that they would get along.
"So what are you going after work?" Phoebe asked Cole.
"I am going to go home and go to sleep." Cole started, as her watched Phoebe and noticed how beautiful she was.
"Do you want to go on a date after I get off of work?"
"Sure." Phoebe said. Cole got back to work
"Paige, so how are you're sister and you doing with the work that you and your sister been doing?" Glenn asked her, he had joined them after he got off of work. Paige knew that he was taking about the demons.
"We are doing good. We just helped another person who needed help." Paige said putting emphasis on helped and person. Glenn knew that she meant that she just vanquished another demon.
P3 started to empty out soon it was only Piper, Wyatt, Phoebe, Cole, Paige and Glenn there. They were all helping to clean up P3. When that was done Piper and Wyatt headed home. Paige and Glenn went to Glenn apartment. Phoebe and Cole went out to get some dinner.
Chris landed a bit unsteadily on the bench. Bianca came from behind the statue. She looked at him.
"You really shouldn't try orb any more. It could kill you." Bianca said
"Is that what you want?" Chris asked.
"If that what I wanted, you'll already be dead. All I want is to bring you back" Bianca said.
"How did you know that I would be here?" Chris asked.
"The same reason that you know that I would be waiting here." Bianca said.
"This is still our spot." Bianca started looking at Chris. "It isn't it?"
"No." Chris said simply.
"This is what we hoped that it would be. This is what we were trying to preserve for our future. Do you remember?" Chris asked.
"You and I thought we could change anything. To stop him." Bianca said.
"You don't believe that, or at least you didn't." Chris said.
"Now I do." Bianca said.
"What happen to you Bianca? How did he turn you back?" Chris asked Bianca can closer to Chris and put her feet on the bench and leaned towards Chris.
"That's not important. What is important is that I was interrupted of stripping you of your power. If I don't finished what I started you will die soon. Think of it as an infection and I am the only one with the antidote." Bianca said.
"Here or there I am dead anyways." Chris said.
"No, please Chris don't make this any harder then it has to be." Bianca pleaded. Chris looked at Bianca and he orbed out. Bianca lunge forward to strip him of the rest of his power, but she was too late.
Darryl looked at another murder case. This wasn't good. There were plenty of unsolved cases. They were starting to pile up. It wasn't good. He couldn't find anything that could hook them up to demons. This was starting to get crazy. He had at least 5-murders case. He couldn't find the murder weapons or pinpoint what was the murder weapon.
Alyssa was doing research even if Chris said not to. She found that the one that attacked Chris was an assassin witch, called the Phoenix. She was after Chris. Alyssa didn't and wouldn't let anything happen to the man that she was in love with. Alyssa decide to do a couple of spells of her own of course she would reword them. On was to give her the power of invisibility and the other one was the power of speed. Just as she finished she heard a thud. She looked over to where the front door was Chris fell to the ground after orbing in, he was barely conscious. Alyssa lifted him up and got him to the couch and made sure that he was comfortable.
"Leo." Alyssa said. There was a tingling sound. Alyssa looked up. "Don't you tingle at me. Get your butt down here now." There was a tingle again.
"Bianca." Chris said. Alyssa looked at him. Now she knew who that woman was. Alyssa looked up again. Then she looked at Chris. She had to do it.
"What's mine is yours, what's yours is mine, let our powers cross the line, I offer up this gift to share, switch our powers through the air." Alyssa said. She didn't feel anything. She looked over at the picture on the table. She moved her hand to throw it off the table nothing happened she knew their powers were switched. Piper and Wyatt walked into the door. Piper looked at Alyssa and then at Chris.
"What happened to Chris?" Piper asked.
"I don't know, he orbed in here and he was barely conscious and I got him to the couch." Alyssa said.
"Bianca." Chris said once more.
"I found out that the lady that we blew up was an assassin witch who bounty is Chris." Alyssa said.
"I think we need all of here for this." Piper said as she put Wyatt in his playpen. She went to call Paige and Phoebe. Alyssa looked at Chris she could tell that he loved Bianca. She saw that he was holding something in his hand. She knelled down and turned his hand over. She saw an engagement ring. She knew that all hope for them being together was zero change of getting together. She took the ring out of his hand. Piper walked back into the room.
"At least we have something to scribe with for Bianca." Alyssa said holding up the ring.
"Phoebe and Paige are on their way home." Piper said, as she took the ring from Alyssa and she went to get to scribe for Bianca. Alyssa sat down where Chris was laying there wasn't that much room, but she didn't care. She just wanted to protect Chris. Alyssa just moved some hair out of his face.
"I take it that you're in love with him." Bianca said. Alyssa turned around to see Bianca standing there. She wasn't the least bit surprise that she was there.
"What make you think that I am in love with him?" Alyssa asked.
"The way that you looked at him." Bianca started. She looked at Chris. "Too bad that he will be dead soon. As soon as I strip him of his power and kill him then I will return to the future with his body." Bianca said.
"You're not going to lay a hand on him." Alyssa said.
"You're not going to stop me." Bianca said, starting to move over to Alyssa and Chris. Alyssa grabbed Chris and orbed out of the house. She went to her office that was at a building near by. Chris who awake looked at her.
"How did you do that?" Chris asked.
"Leo wouldn't help me and I wasn't going to let Bianca get you so I switched powers with you." Alyssa said.
"Alyssa you shouldn't have done that. You're in danger also." Chris said trying to sit up. Alyssa helped him to sit up.
"Don't move much you need time to recovery." Alyssa said.
"I have to leave." Chris said.
"You're not going anywhere." Alyssa said.
"Alyssa you don't understand, Bianca will not stop until I dead." Chris said, he was in love with Alyssa. Bianca had turned evil. Chris didn't know her anymore.
"She is not going to get close to you." Alyssa said. Chris looked at her.
"Alyssa this isn't your problem it's mine." Chris said.
"I am not going to let you face it alone." Alyssa said.
"Alyssa, please let me handle this." Chris said, as he saw a tear coming from Alyssa eyes. Alyssa didn't know why she was started to cry. Chris wiped the tear away off her face.
"I don't know what wrong with me." Alyssa said.
"We will figure it out." Chris said. Alyssa felt sick. She ran to the bathroom and she threw up. Chris didn't know what was wrong with Alyssa and he was worry about her. He couldn't let Alyssa get in the way. He needed to take care of Bianca himself. Chris made his way to the door. He knew where he was he made it half way to the Manor when he ran into Bianca.
"Well, you just save me the time of tracking you down. As soon as we get back to the Manor and I strip you of the rest of your powers, we can go back to the future and my husband can figure out what to do with you." Bianca said. Chris looked surprised.
"You mean you really never loved me?" Chris asked.
"Don't be surprise. I was just using you to get to the Charmed One to destroy them." Bianca said. Chris could tell in her eyes that she was just acting like she was in love with him. His heart was ripped out he loved Bianca, but she was married to the evil Wyatt in the future. He couldn't believe it. While Chris was stun with information, she used it to continue what she was interrupted in doing before. Chris felt pain ripping trough his body.
Alyssa felt pain she knew it was from Chris. She wiped her mouth and she went and checked on Chris. He was gone. She orbed out and she landed a few block away from Chris and Bianca. She ran to where there were. She grabbed Bianca and pulled her off of Chris.
"Leave him alone." Alyssa said. She looked over at Chris he fell to the ground. Alyssa went over to Chris side, but keep and eye on Bianca.
"Chris are you okay?" Alyssa asked. Chris nodded his head. He was still shock at the news that she was married to his evil older brother.
"Guess he didn't take the news that I don't love him and that I am married to his older brother to well." Bianca said.
"You bitch, how could you do this to him? Are you saying that you were just using him and that you were never in love with him?" Alyssa asked.
"Yes, now if you don't mind I want finish my job and get back to my husband Wyatt who is waiting for me in the future." Bianca said, giving an evil glare to Alyssa. Alyssa glared back at her.
"Let her take me." Chris said quietly. Alyssa looked down at him.
"So, you decide to die, instead of facing the pain, how noble of you." Bianca said. Alyssa knelled down beside Chris.
"She's not going to take you." Alyssa said softly.
"I got nothing to keep me here." Chris said.
"Yes, you do have something to keep you here." Alyssa said.
"What would keep me here?" Chris asked.
"It isn't something; it's someone who wants you to stay here." Alyssa said.
"Who?" Chris asked looking at her.
"Me." Alyssa said simply.
"After the way I treated you, you still want me around?" Chris asked.
"Yes. I love you Chris, I have since I met you." Alyssa said.
"You have." Chris said. Alyssa nodded her head.
"Sorry, to interrupt you moment but Chris is going back with me." Bianca said. She waved her hand and a portal opened. She didn't wait she pushed Chris and Alyssa through.
Piper was scribing for Bianca. The scribe stopped at one place then it suddenly started up again. 'That was weird.' Piper thought to herself. Phoebe and Paige walked through the door.
"What's up?" Phoebe asked.
"Chris is in trouble." Piper said.
"What new about that?" Paige asked.
"Well, someone has a hit out on him. An assassin witch is after him." Piper said. Phoebe and Paige expression changed.
"Who would want to get rid of Chris?" Phoebe asked.
"How about Bianca?" Piper said.
"Can't be. We vanquished her." Paige said.
"No, I read that she can reform, she is a Phoenix assassin witch." Piper said.
"Where's Alyssa?" Phoebe asked, since she had seen Alyssa since she came in the Manor.
"She was with Chris." Piper said, as they all went to check on Alyssa. They got to the living room only to find it empty.
"They're gone." Paige said.
"I am going to scribe for Alyssa." Phoebe said, as she got Alyssa bracelet that she left on the table. Phoebe concentrated on Alyssa. Piper and Paige watched. After a few minutes Phoebe looked up.
"I can't find her." Phoebe said.
