A/N: I hope you all enjoy it...thank you so much for the reviews it means a lot to me. I'm going to be introducing a character a little earlier than in the show but I think it will be okay.

Previously...

Chris Perry stayed out of the sisters' ways as they prepared the house for the return of their long lost sister and niece. Since they had discovered what he had about his dear aunt Prue, he had gone light on the demon hunting.

Something in the pit of his stomach told him that destiny was readjusting the events of this life; fate was going to have its way. He just hoped that meant happily ever after for the Halliwell family, even though he wasn't naive enough to believe it.

"It's a part of Bella's prophecy. If I'm right, we only have one missing piece left."

"'A child born within the shadow of all that is good and evil will be raised within its secret walls. United with blood once more, the shadow daughter will meet the son born of dancing lights. The twice blessed shall reveal the shadow daughter; either drawing her into the light or banishing her to darkness.'"

"Let her go, Wyatt."

"Or what, Chris? You gonna kill me," he said laughing.

Chris's face went cold as he struggled to stand. "If I have to."

"You haven't got it in you, little brother." Wyatt flamed out with Bella in hand as Chris sent a lightening bolt at Wyatt. The family gasped in light of the new information and Chris turned to see the shock on his mother's face. He took a step back as she took one forward and orbed out.

Currently...

Chris stood on the dock, peering into the water. The breeze from the water was calming on his cheeks and somehow this was the first moment of peace since he had come back to this time. Usually he would go to the bridge, his father's favorite place to go think. He knew it was the first place Leo would check, and while he felt relieved not to carry this secret any longer Chris needed to be as far away from them as possible. He couldn't stand to look in their face and see the disappointment that he knew was meant all for him.

Their voices were calling in his head and he knew he couldn't ignore them for long. He also knew that sometimes you need to breathe first.

Paige stood at the podium, rifling through the book of shadows as Phoebe started on potions they could use without harming Wyatt. Piper was shouting at Leo to hurry up and find Chris, leaving Prue interrogating Alice.

"I can't see anything, no matter how hard I try," Alice said.

"What does that mean?" Prue was desperate for some sign that her daughter was going to be alright.

"It means she hasn't decided to act yet."

"What happens when me and my sisters go after Wyatt?"

Alice eyes glazed over as Prue made her decision to attack Wyatt. As Alice came to, her head lifted to meet Prue's gaze. "You'll be too late."

Jasper peeked out the window of the motel room he had just rented, seeing the old dilapidated sign that read San Francisco Dreaming with four of the ten bordering light bulbs blown out. When he had come back from feeding to find Alice gone he had gone crazy. Jasper had lashed out at her things, angry that she had left him. His time with the Cullens had been hard; his lack of ability to control himself made him constantly on edge at the beginning while he eventually relaxed around them. Alice was his savior though. She had complete faith in him and he had never before felt anger at her.

When the family, or what was left of it, realized what had happened Jasper couldn't control himself. He had lashed out at Edward. Yes, he was aware that it was his inability to control himself that had caused Edward to make the decision that he had. Though Jasper could seemingly control the emotions of those around him, his own were too strong and often influenced his ability. Part of the reason the others had also tried to attack, besides the smell of blood, was the fact that Jasper had influenced them when he hadn't meant to. But Edward's unwavering belief that leaving was for the best had changed their entire family. Now, Jasper was hiding in a motel room in California because when he had gone back to Forks the house had been empty and the only clue he had was Alice's journal and the mention of a charmed coven. All of his research brought him here, and when night fell he was going to fix this whole crazy scenario.

Bella woke in the dark to the sound of dripping. She pushed herself up and realized that where ever she was had been made of earth as dirt coated her hands. There was no light, and so she grasped at the walls, still disoriented and only half conscious, when she felt a force explode on her head and she collapsed again.

Wyatt picked Bella up bridal style, her arms flailing at her side. "You're not getting away that easily."

Chris orbed back into the manor, grabbing some herbs from the kitchen and heading for the attic. Everyone tensed at his presence and Piper opened and shut her mouth.

"What are you doing with those," Paige asked. She knew now wasn't the time to get into it with him as the rest clearly wanted but were too afraid to do.

"Making potions to deal with Wyatt."

"But I already did that," Phoebe responded.

Chris turned to look at her. "Those won't be strong enough to disarm him."

"But we don't want to vanquish him, either," Phoebe replied.

"I'm not talking vanquishing. I'm talking making him powerless to fight against us." He turned to look at everyone. "None of you know what he's capable of. I do. I know what powers he has and how he's going to work. Wyatt won't show you the same courtesy you're all too willing to extend to him. This is our only shot at keeping him from becoming evil in the future and changing Bella. If you can't do this then get out of the way."

Hours had past and the sun had finally set. Jasper had contacts in San Francisco, as some of his old friends liked to "vacation" here. They had talked of the rumors and lore surrounding the Charmed ones but none had any idea if the rumors were true. He had made his way to occult shops around San Francisco and hadn't discovered anything new. He had tried calling Alice but she was obviously avoiding his calls.

Walking down a side walk, the smell of blood was haunting him but he had experience much more control since Bella's birthday if only because he couldn't bare to cause his family any more hurt. His fangs had come down from his gums when a woman scraped herself and began to bleed. Jasper had crossed streets then to avoid doing something he would regret. Still, he was busying himself with controlling his urges when he was pushed into an alley way with more strength than he had ever felt before. He turned to face his attacker when he was thrown into a brick wall.

Chris bottled the last potion as his aunts and mother looked through his own personal spell book.

"I don't recognize half of these spells," Phoebe said.

"Yeah, well I'm guessing you're not as well versed in your powers as Chris is," Leo said. "He's grown up with powers; more than likely he has years more knowledge than you've had time to acquire."

"I still don't understand how--" Paige grabbed her head in her hands as ringing pierced her skull with such a force that she had an instant migraine.

"What's happening to her?" Piper was frantic.

"Chill," Chris said. "It's her new charge." He pushed the cork stopper into the potion bottle and set it along with the other dozens of potions he had spent the day making. "You really should go," he said blithely. "They're gonna keep calling for you until you show. I've got this covered."

Paige turned to Leo who just nodded his head. Sighing, she relaxed her shoulders as she dispersed in glittering white light. When Paige reappeared she was in an alley and just in time to see a petite brunette throw the probable demon into the brick wall of one of the buildings. The brunette heard her and turned around, waving her arm to throw Paige, who reformed on the other side of her. Scared, the girl threw a punch and Paige hit her square on the chin.

Falling, the girl's wig landed on the floor to reveal a blonde. Unsure, she got up to run back to the street only to be met with Paige orbing into place in order to stop her.

"Wait," Paige said holding her hands out. "I'm here to help."

Wyatt stared at Bella while she slept. He knew it was going to take some persuading in order to turn her to his side. What could be more fitting than doing it in her very own cavern; the place he had tracked her down at when he had discovered it was her who had murdered his entire family. When Bella had told him who she was, how destiny had created the entire reason why she had to kill the Halliwells, Wyatt had refused to listen but her power was greater than his and for the first time he had met someone with more power than him.

She had held him there, in the cavern. Taunting him, Bella had spoken of how he couldn't even put up a fight. Is this what being good gets you, she had asked. After weeks of torture and malnourishment she had released him but he couldn't move without help. It was then that she had bound him to her in a dark ceremony. She explained that after her mother had taught her the craft Edward had come back into her life but by some weird sense of irony he had been killed by one of the Halliwell families friends; a witch named Billy, who hadn't taken the time to properly identify any of her vanquishes after her sister had been killed. Needing a release from her sadness, she had started demon hunting again; just as recklessly as she had when she had only just found out she was a witch. When she had found Edward she had killed him instantly without seeking any other information. It was then that Bella turned, killing anyone and everyone who got in her way, including her own parents.

She had waited for years to put her plan in motion. She knew she was more powerful than the Charmed ones but she wasn't well versed in her powers, at least not as well as they were. Her plan had taken twelve years to complete, but she had done it. All that was left was making sure that Chris didn't accomplish his mission. Bella was so focused on making sure that she didn't lose Wyatt that she didn't realize that by going to the past that Chris might change things, like accidentally revealing Prue to the sisters and introducing them before Bella turned evil. Wyatt had realized it though, and knew that Chris could change everything, including saving Edward. If that happened then Wyatt would lose Bella and the only way he knew to prevent that would be by performing the binding ceremony with the Bella from the past. All he had to do now was wait for his opportunity.

Alice checked her cell phone, noting that she had a missed call when she had the vision. Coming out of it, she turned to Andy and Prue. "Get me to Paige now!"
