Chapter 5 Rules and Inspections.

"Are you sure we shouldn't call for Leo to heal Paige?" Phoebe asked.

"No, if we call Leo, he will ask about our lovely demon Czuchry, then he'll ask why Allen is in the nursery and you get the idea," Piper answered.

"How can you be sure Leo is Allen's father?" Phoebe asks.

"Excuse me!" Piper exclaimed.

"Hear me out, Piper, Allen has shown no Whitelighter abilities. No, orbing, hovering, photokinesis etc." Phoebe pointed out.

"So, Leo could have been mortal at the time, Allen was conceived," Piper replies, yes she and Leo are separated for now. But she knows deep down a part of her will always love Leo in someway and she wanted more than one child with him.

"Piper sweetie, all I'm saying is that we don't assume, we find out for sure. I get it you had this destined love with Leo, but destinies aren't always set in stone. Look at us, four sisters became the Charmed Ones not just three. You and Leo may get back together you may not." Phoebe said.

"I see your point Pheebs, it's just that right now thinking of any new relationship is too much. I need a lot of time and a lot of aspirin to figure things out." Piper responded.

"So what is our game plan after vanquishing Czuchry?" Phoebe asks.

"One figure out what evil hurts Wyatt and two get answers from my sixteen-year-old unborn baby." Piper answers.

"Here a suggestion, I'll take care of Paige, while you deal with your new son. He looked really thin for his age." Phoebe suggested.

"He's in the nursery when Paige recovers I'm making Chris take her to where the boys have been staying and I want full report pictures and everything," Piper spoke.


Standing in the kitchen looking into the fridge Piper ponders to herself. What could she make for the young witch? Did he have any allergies, intolerances? She knows so little of him. Did she have any other kids? All these unanswered questions plagued her mind. Maybe she should make something basic.

Meanwhile, back upstairs we have Chris and Allen trying again to break Piper's spell.

"A son strangled by his mother's will with this spell, I revoke her protection lift this spell. Allow him to walk free once again." Chris chanted. The barrier appears quickly manifesting as a red wall of light for a few seconds before fading. Allen attempts to crossover but is blocked.

"Try another spell, " Allen says.

"Let's hope fourteen times is the charm, " Chris replied, taking about almost five minutes to come up with a new spell.

"Hear these words, hear my cry heed the hope within this child's mind. Lift the spell that keeps him bound to give him the freedom which he is being deprived." Chris chants. Allen attempted to walk again but once more is blocked.

"Stand back, " Allen snapped, Chris signed but does what Allen requested.

"If I can't break it, I doubt you can," Chris said.

"You might have weakened it enough for me to blast through it," Allen replies. Allen makes several gestures but finds himself out of breath after ten minutes of constant blasting. The spell Piper placed still wouldn't yield or weaken. Allen crouches down onto the floor frustrated and tired.

"That better not be blasting. I'm hearing from here." Piper shouted as she walks upstairs.

"What she bringing now an orange prison suit." Allen joked.

"We just need some time, Allen," Chris replied.

"You out! Paige should be coming around soon. When she does you're taking her to where you two have been staying." Piper ordered her tone blunt and cold. Chris and Allen stare at each other having a silent conversation. "Are you deaf?"

"I'll be okay, Chris," Allen says, he could tell his mother's tone of voice hurt Chris even if the Charmed One was oblivious to it. Chris doesn't respond verbally he just leaves.

"I wasn't sure if you had any allergies, so I thought I'll just make you the basics," Piper commented.

"Does the basics include me leaving the nursery?" Allen asked.

"No, it does include a fruit salad, peanut butter and jam sandwich and a glass of milk," Piper answered.

"I'll have the fruit and the milk, but I don't fancy my throat swelling from the peanut," Allen says. Piper grew a small smile at least the boy could have two of the three things made for him.


Allen thought it would be pointless to ask if he could eat out of his nursery no Wyatt's old nursery. So, sighed and found Piper passing him the wooden breakfast tray and watching him like a hawk.

"Someone likes his milk," Piper commented. When she notices Allen down the milk unintentionally letting some of the milk from the glass fall out of the glass onto his face dripping down slowly from his cheek. Allen blushes and quickly wipes the wayward milk away using one of his tatty and ripped arm sleeves. Piper realised the boy's clothes are ruined, he would need new ones.

"I've eaten and drank some milk. Can I please leave I'm bored in here. Czuchry can't get in you have crystals around the entire manor." Allen requested.

"I don't know Allen, you're safer in your nursery," Piper responded.

"It's not my nursery it's Wyatt's old nursery. Please, I need to pee and I'm filthy. I need a shower or a bath." Allen begs, is Piper doing this as a joke or just payback for not telling her? As long as she doesn't find out Chris' identity, Chris could still figure out what turns Wyatt. Piper ponders for almost five minutes.

"I suppose, " Piper started, Allen gets to his feet and goes to walk out but Piper holds out a hand to stop him. "If you ask properly."

"Can I please leave Wyatt's old nursery? To go to the toilet and have a shower." Allen asks, Piper looks unimpressed.

"Try again, can I please leave my nurs..." Piper starts.

"I can't say that babies and toddlers have nurseries, not teenagers." Allen interrupted. He knows his answer Piper is definitely going for payback for lying about his identity. But he wasn't going to give her the satisfaction.

"I can wait all day, " Piper says, fifteen minutes past and Allen found himself in great discomfort. He couldn't wait any longer.

"Can I please leave my nursery to go to the toilet and to have a shower?" Allen blurts out. Piper smiles she won the battle and she would win the war.

"Go ahead, but don't plan on escaping," Piper warned.

"And have the Power of Three on my a..." Allen started but seeing Piper's glare. He stops. "On my behind no way."


After being escorted to the bathroom like a prisoner is escorted on death row. Allen knew that Piper would be waiting outside. Phoebe walked upstairs and finds Piper waiting outside of the closed bathroom.

"Paige has gone with a frustrated and annoyed Chris, " Phoebe tells Piper.

"He has no idea what frustration and annoyed is until he gets back," Piper said.

"Sweetie Allen is going to need some new clothes. The clothes he has on him are almost rags." Phoebe pointed out.

"Just in case Paige doesn't come back with any clothes for Allen, I'll conjure some," Piper said.

"I can stand out here while you conjure some." Phoebe offered.

"Good I don't trust him from taking any chance he gets to escape," Piper says.

"Just hurry back, I think right now you're the only one he fears or will listen to," Phoebe told Piper as her sister walks to the attic.


As for Allen, he lets the hot water from the shower pour down on him. He missed warm showers, for a few minutes he could be in a state of mind without worry or fear. He could find temporary peace. While Sam healed Allen of his injuries Czuchry inflicted. There is one scar that could never heal even by magic.

The hot water on this large scar on his back. Stings a little when the hot water hits it. But the boy knows the stinging will grow worse when he cleans his back with some shower gel. Allen thought the longer he is in the shower the better the chance he had at Chris saving him. The only problem was showers always made him sleepy.


Paige and Chris appear in Chris and Allen's base which used to be Sam the biological father of Paige Matthews old place of residence which lies on the camp where Patty Halliwell was killed by the Water Demon. Paige quickly takes in her surroundings two sleeping bags on the floor, a large chalkboard, covered with all sorts of theories in writing she couldn't understand. Different food in plastic tubs on the worktop counters. Three clothes piles scattered tiny piles too.

"Why this place?" Paige asks.

"The cheapest and most practical place, we could find." Chris lied.

"Piper won't be letting Allen come back to this dump," Paige said.

"You can only judge a dump by those who past through," Chris replies.

"Just collect your things and we'll head back to the manor," Paige told Chris.

"You really think Piper will let me stay?" Chris asked.

"I'll handle Piper, " Paige said.


Piper was in the attic for an unknown amount of time, right now preparing to conjure some clothes. Piper is writing down on a small piece of paper. Once finished writing on the said piece of paper she drops it into the pot/cauldron and after a quick flash of light. A pile of clothes manifest in Piper's hands.

Piper leaves the attic heading back towards the upstairs bathroom. Piper is glad to see Phoebe is still waiting outside of the closed bathroom. Piper first goes into her room to drop off most of the clothes but keeping a pair of pyjamas. Returning to the outside of the bathroom in the hallway. The two sisters hear the shower stop. Allen then gets out of the shower. And wraps a towel around himself.

"Allen, I have some clean clothes for you, " Piper said. Allen opens the bathroom door a little so that he could take the clothes. Before closing the door. Allen doesn't bother to look at the pyjamas, he just wanted to have some fresh clothes. Walking out of the bathroom carrying the towel he used and his old tatty clothes. Phoebe finds herself in a fit of laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Allen asks.

"Look at your pyjama top and you would laugh too, " Phoebe answered. Allen glances down only to be horrified.

"Scooby-Doo! Really isn't being trapped in a nursery for God knows how long punishment enough." Allen snapped.

"I wanted to have a few laughs God knows I haven't had any in a while," Piper spoke.

"At my expense, Czuchry should have killed me when he had me," Allen responds.

"Dramatic much," Phoebe commented. Piper grabs Allen's right arm.

"Where are you taking me?" Allen asks.

"To the attic, to lay down some ground rules. And to tell me whatever I need to know." Piper says.

"And what if I refuse to tell you anything?" Allen questions.

"Do you want me to send you back to the nursery early." Piper threatened.

"NO!" Allen pouted.

"Good boy, " Piper praised.


In the attic, mother and son are sitting on an old couch. Piper holding a notepad and pencil in her hands.

"How did you figure out the layout for a section of the Underworld?" Piper questions.

"Through a spell, " Allen said.

"Care to elaborate, " Piper says.

"I can't the spell hasn't been created yet," Allen replied.

"Who created the spell?" Piper asks.

"Someone you won't have heard of yet," Allen spoke.

"You and Chris love being cryptic, " Piper says.

"We prefer being cautious," Allen spoke.

"Right as well as being deceitful," Piper said.

"From a son to a mother, if I were you or your sisters. I would evaluate my attitude and how I speak towards Chris. One day, you may become to regret it and not because I care for him." Allen replied.

"Oh God, you and him are a couple!" Piper gasped. Allen looks at her mortified him and Chris. Him and his big brother that is sick.

"God no, Piper we're just good friends," Allen responds immediately.

"That is a relief," Piper said.

"Any more questions?" Allen asked.

"Your powers when did they manifest?" Piper asks.

"I...I was about four, I was with my dad." Allen answers. "But don't ask about my father."

"He must have been good looking for me to share a child with," Piper spoke.

"I guess you could say that. Why are you doing this? You didn't really care about me before finding out about my true identity. I haven't even been conceived yet. Me and Chris were fine things were going perfectly. You wanted me and Chris gone when I blew up Leo for attacking Chris." Allen questions.

"I regret not figuring it out sooner. It's not easy to have two strangers come from the future claiming they want to protect my son from evil." Piper said she couldn't deny she wasn't the kindest hostess to the boys.

"We didn't take coming back lightly it wasn't for kicks," Allen says.

"I can see that but why lie about your age and glamour?" Piper asks.

"Two reasons, one it was hard enough for you to come to terms evil hurt Wyatt, there no way you could handle you had another son. And second, if I had turned up as myself, you would have had me stay put at the sidelines or watching my every move. Hell or locking me in that damn nursery intentionally and force-feeding me cauliflower." Allen responded.

"I warned you about swearing, " Piper reminded the boy.

"Get it from my dad's side," Allen revealed.

"Middle name?" Piper requested.

"I have one but I can't tell you it." Allen denied.

"Don't you like it?" Piper asked.

"It's not that it's just it's related to my dad, " Allen said.

"Czuchry, for now, can't get past the crystals. But he might eventually, he's determined to kill my baby at all cost. We will have to add further magical wards to keep him out." Piper says.

"SON! Not baby, " Allen spoke.

"One and the same when it comes to you, " Piper said, she ripped a few of the pages out of the notepad. And passed them to Allen.

"What is this?" Allen asks.

"Rules which you can look over while I prepare dinner, " Piper answered before quickly throwing a potion at Allen which sends him back to his nursery.

"This isn't fair!" Allen yells.
