Chapter 3
Manor 2 Hours later
Paige and Phoebe look at Leo as he paces around.
"I can't stand this,"muttered Leo miserably.
"You'll get through to him Leo,"said Paige quietly.
"I don't think so Paige,"replied Leo. "You should've seen his face. It was as if his pain could never be taken away."
"Leo,"said Phoebe quietly.
"I don't know what to do. I mean I can't have him hate me when he goes back."
"Let him be,"said Paige all of a sudden.
"Ummm what?" said Leo.
Paige shrugged. "Kinda like reverse psychology,"she replied quickly. "In this case however, you just leave him alone. Maybe you bothering him won't work."
"I disagree,"said Phoebe,"I mean Leo not caring for him in the future is why he is like this in the first place."
Leo shook his head and sat down. "This is hopeless,"he muttered.
Paige sighed. "Just make it up to baby Chris."
"What about Wyatt?"Leo asked.
"I didn't say leave Wyatt all alone. Just ration how you spend time with people. You were there for everybody else right?"
"Right...."
"Wow for an Elder you sure are dumb."
"Paige!"scolded Phoebe.
"He is,"Paige mumbled.
"It still isn't nice to say."
"I know. Anyways....Leo just spend equal time with Piper, Wyatt, and Chris. He'll love you then. You'll see."
"I dunno."
Chris then orbed in. He looked really happy, but when he saw Leo, his expression changed. "Hey Aunt Paige, Aunt Phoebe." He didn't acknowledge Leo.
"Who else?"said Phoebe.
Chris gave her a sour look. "And........Dad." Chris said it quickly, it hardly heard.
"What's up?"said Leo.
"I think I have the answer,"Chris said proudly.
"To?"asked Paige.
"Who turns Wyatt evil."
"Why is that so happy?"demanded Leo angrily.
Chris turned away from Leo as if some many memories came rushing back to him.
"Leo!"said Phoebe shaking her head.
"Well it's true,"replied Leo, still angry. "I don't see how that should be happy. Wyatt turning evil is no laughing matter. He has so-"
"Many powers that willnever be seen again in this age,"snapped Chris. "I've heard that speech a thousand times. Can you two tell me when HE is gone? I can't stand him here." He orbed out.
Leo looked up after Chris. "I'm sorry Chris,"he yelled.
Phoebe looked at Paige. "You know I agree with you Paige, he is stupid." She turned to Leo. "You have heard nothing that we just told you?"
Leo put his head down. "I just can't help it,"he replied weakly. "Wyatt is just too important to me."
"And Chris isn't?"Paige asked softly.
"He is or he will be."
"You don't act like he is,"replied Paige.
"Yeah,"said Phoebe,"you don't. If you were a father to him like you were to Wyatt, you would've been proud of him. I can sense his anger, and see it. Anyone can."
"I'm just so confused,"said Leo.
"You just have to let this come as it comes,"said Paige.
"I guess. See you. I'll go try to find him and talk to him." Leo orbed out of the room.
Chapter 4
Gideon's office
Gideon was sitting in his chair. He came in just after talking to Piper. He was angry with himself. He always had these occassional slips like that. Just the other day he softly said that Wyatt was too dangerous, right in front of Piper. He passed it off by saying Wyatt was too precious.
Gideon wasn't aware of Chris sitting in a chair in the corner. Chris was invisible so Gideon wouldn't see him.
A knock came on the door. "Come in,"said Gideon.
Sigmund walked into the office. He closed the door and sat down.
"What can I help you with?" he asked.
Sigmund replied nervously,"I want to know when we are going to go through with this."
Gideon shrugged casually. "When Piper is going to give birth to Chris. She will be vunerable then. Wyatt is too dangerous for this world. He must die."
"Good sir. I must leave then." Sigmund left.
Gideon looked after Sigmund. He was sweating heavily. This was weighing heavily on him. He got up and left his office.
Chris turned visible and smiled. "Too idiotic Gideon. You have to cover your tracks better." He orbed out.
Chapter 5
Manor-Early night
Chris is sitting in the manor alone. He was called by Phoebe and Paige. They weren't there though. As soon as he heard some orbs he knew that he was set up.
"Can we please talk?"asked Leo quietly.
"There is NOTHING to talk about,"replied Chris.
"Why?"
"I told you what you wanted. I just want peace now."
"I can't give you that. I need to know more."
Chris turned and looked him in the eye. "You don't know what you're getting into."
"I think I do."
"You don't." Chris' eyes clouded over again. He went back to a darker memory than before. "I was thirteen,"he started,"and I was totally depressed. I spent my whole time listening to kids talk about how their fatherss spent all this time with them and how happy there are. They would always say,'Why don't you talk about your dad Chris?'. I always told him,'Cuz I don't do anything with him. He doesn't notice I'm there. They would laugh. I always took pill when I got home. They would help me sleep. That's all I ever did, sleep. I stared at the pills that day. There were like 4 left. I decided to take them all."
Leo stared at Chris. He couldn't believe what he was hearing. "Do you mean?"he asked.
"I tried to commit suicide yeah. So anyways, I passed out. I don't know for how long. Mom, Aunt Paige, and Aunt Phoebe found me. I remember Mom telling me to never do that again. I could barely hear her calling your name. You never came. Mom tried to talk to you. You wouldn't listen. 'My sons aren't capable of that,'you said. Mom yelled at you. You just took Wyatt. You never talked to me that day."
"Wow."
Chris stood up. "I can't stand this. All you can say is wow. That's just how you were in the future. I can't stand seeing you again. I have to though. I'm leaving." Chris orbed out.
Leo sat there helplessly. He couldn't believe what he had heard. He couldn't believe he was that bad a father.
"Leo,"said Phoebe walking in,"I can't imagine how you are feeling."
"I know,"said Paige. "I'm sorry."
"Me too." Leo stood up. "I thought Chris had it bad, but wow."
"We can't tell Piper,"said Phoebe slowly.
"I know,"said Paige."It would kill her."
Leo stood up. "I don't know what to do now,"he said.
"This is tough,"said Phoebe.
"Yeah,"said Paige.
"I have to think,"said Leo. He then orbed out leaving the two sisters alone.
