Another thank you goes out to all those who reviewed. I know Wyatt's turning out of be a bit of a sleeze, but don't worry he's not all bad ;)
Anyhoo, here's the next chapter, hope you enjoy.
Dealing With Death
Chapter 26: You're in my body!
Come on, follow me, Chris though as he ran down the street, taking a corner. He looked back to see the three demons that were on his tail were still…well on his tail. It had been four months since they started training, and the past month they had spent out in the field rather than cooped up in the basement of their house, although Melinda was not with them, Melinda would not be coming on their 'in the field' activities.
He rounded another corner, into an alleyway, where the Twice Blessed was waiting.
"Chris, duck!" Wyatt called out, as he saw one of the demons throw an energy ball towards Chris' back. The younger Halliwell did as he was told, and Wyatt deflected the energy ball back at the demon with ease. But the demon was not vanquished, it managed to duck the energy ball just in time.
Chris looked back, and realised Wyatt was giving him the chance to catch him breath by trying to take on the three demons, but just then four more demons shimmered in. This was meant to be a trap for the demons, was it now turning into a trap for them?
Chris stood up and sent two of the demons flying backwards, while Wyatt blew up two demons together.
Chris saw the glimpse of an athame in one of the demons' hand, and then it flying through the air towards his older brother.
"Wyatt, watch out!" Chris called, sending the athame back to the demon, just before it hit Wyatt. The demon combust into flames as the athame struck his chest. He looked at the four demons still in front of him, the two that he had thrown back, at the back of the group.
"You take the two on the right," Wyatt called out, "I've got the two on the left."
And that was just what they did. A mixture of hand-to-hand combat and their powers were used. Energy balls and Elder bolts could be seen in the mixture of the two brothers fighting the four demons. Even though they were out numbered, their training with Bianca had helped a great deal.
However, Chris found himself behind held by one of the demons, the demon's arm around his neck, from behind, while the other demon held an energy ball in his hand, stepping towards the witch-Elder.
Wyatt could see what was going to happen, but could not get to his brother to help. He was stuck in a similar situation, struggling against two demons, that now had a hold of him back both of his arms, as if they wanted him to see his brother get murdered. Suddenly, he felt the ground around him shake, he knew it was Chris, but for once could not see the look of anger in his eyes. It was as if Chris was concentrating, but what on? The wall behind Chris came crashing down, to one side, covering the demon holding the energy ball, and then the demon holding onto Chris was flipped forward onto his back.
Chris shot Elder-bolts out of his hands, at the demon know laying on the floor in shock, and then at the one under the wall. He turned to the two holding onto Wyatt, surprised that the Twice Blessed did not have the upper hand on the two demons. The 19-year-old witch-Elder waved his arm out, sending one of the demons flying into a nearby dumpster, giving Wyatt the chance to punch the other demon. As the battle continued, Chris walked towards the demon that had been thrown into the dumpster and threw him telekinetically into one of the walls surrounding the alleyway, and again. Once the demon had taken enough of a beating, the brunette concentrated, making the demon burn from the inside, spontaneously combust into dust, vanquished to the wasteland. He turned back, just in time to see Wyatt conjure an athame and stab his demon in the gut, sending him up in flames.
"You ok?" the witch-Elder called out, looking straight at his brother, who had a cut down his arm.
"I'm fine." Wyatt answered, healing his cut and then looking to Chris, "You?"
"Peachy." Chris replied, slightly pissed off that they had been led into a trap, while setting a trap of heir own. He knew who sent the demons and realised that the leader knew the Halliwell's too much. They had spent four months training, and it was taking too long, they needed to vanquish Garlov now.
The Halliwell brothers orbed home, to find at demon in the house, aiming a wand at Bianca, who was trying to protect Melinda and Pru behind her.
"Bianca!" Chris called out from behind the demon, catching it off guard. Chris went to tackle the demon while Wyatt ran to help Bianca protect the teenage girls, in case more demons attacked. Just as Chris jumped the demon, the wand let out a ray on lighting, hitting the Twice Blessed as he was running to the three girls, causing him to fly backwards into the Phoenix. As both of them landed in a huddle on the floor, Chris used his Elder-bolts against the demon, but it was not use. The demon simply shimmered out before the bolts could touch him. The 19-year-old Halliwell, stood up and looked around.
"Everyone ok?" Chris called out, looking around the room to see Melinda and Prudence looking at the two bodies on the floor.
"We're ok." Melinda nodded her head, as Chris asked again, but he was more worried about his brother and girlfriend.
"Wyatt? Bianca?"
"I'm ok." Bianca's voice rang through the room, pushing Wyatt's body off her, "Get off me!"
"Wyatt?" Chri asked, as the two adults stood up.
"I said I'm fine." Bianca's voice came through again, but then Bianca and Wyatt looked at each other, in complete shock.
"You're in my body!" Wyatt's voice screeched, placing his hands on his hips, dramatically camp, while Bianca looked at Wyatt in the eyes, squinting and pointing at him.
"You're in my body!"
The three other people in the room began to laugh, as they realised what had happened.
"Chris, fix this!" Wyatt screeched again, too high pitched for the Twice Blessed.
"He can't fix everything, you shouldn't expect him to," that was Bianca's voice again, but then she turned to face the witch-Elder, "But you do have the brains, fix it."
Chris stared in awe, his brother and girlfriend had switched bodies, and they were expecting him to fix it! What was he meant to do?
"Ok," Chris sighed, trying to think on the spot, "Mel, Pru go and check the book for the demon. You two, don't argue and sit down on the couch. We'll try and figure this out."
As Chris, Melinda and Pru started walking up the stairs, Bianca and Wyatt began to argue.
"Oi, you two!" Chris called out looking at their sheepish looks, "Arguing won't help you. Just stay calm, ok. Ok babe?"
"Don't call me babe!" Wyatt called out from Bianca's body. Chris shook his head, this was going to get confusing.
Sorry, I know it's a little short, but I really wanted to end the chapter there and couldn't really find anything before hand to pad it out. There will be more in the next chapter, I promise.
Anyhoo, let me know what you thought, go on, press the little button below...
