"Because he's our brother." Melinda blurts out. At this everyone look surprised especially Piper and Leo, who both said "What?"
Paige then asked "Chris is this true?"
"Um. well yeah" Chris replied
"Aww, Chris honey" Phoebe says hugging him so tight, he looks kinda worried. Piper looked very pale at this and handed Wyatt back to Leo, she looked as if she was going to faint.
"Piper!" shouted Leo,
"Mom!" Chris and Melinda exclaimed.
"I'm fine, I'm fine, don't worry about me." Piper said still absorbing the news.
"You sure you're OK?" said Paige as Phoebe shot her older sister a concerned look.
"Yeah, I just, it's a lot to take in you know; my daughter from the future turns up and now I find out that our whitelighter is my, our son too! This morning I only had one kid!" Leo then says to his wife "I know honey, it's weird." He turns to Paige, "Paige can you get Piper some water please?" Paige orbs out.
A phone rings and surprise, surprise it's Phoebe's cell [n/a almost put mobile]. "Hi, Elise!" "Yeah.no.I'm on my way."
She turns to Leo, Piper and the kids "As much as I'd love to stay and chat, I have a deadline," looks at watch "about 5 minutes ago!" She hugs Chris, Melinda, tickles Wyatt and asks if Piper and Leo will be okay.
"Leave, I'll be fine. Now run, faster!" Piper turns to Leo, "Leo, how much do you know about this, I mean why they're here, or why Chris is anyway?"
"Well you know Chris is here to save Wyatt from a demon, he says that Wyatt is turned evil by one in the future; but he doesn't know which one."
"That's sooo useful, but why didn't we vanquish the demon?" Piper asks getting worried the only reason that they wouldn't have vanquished it, was if something really bad had happened.
"Because, you..uh, couldn't." Mel said hesitating, not knowing what to say.
"You weren't there." Chris said saving the day, as he did so many times in his past/their future.
"Melinda, didn't you say you had something you had to tell Chris?" Asks Leo remembering why she came in the first place.
"Yeah, but I don't have to tell him right now."
"Ok, if you don't have to tell him right away, would you like some breakfast?" Piper asked.
"Yes, please Mom!" said Melinda.
"Yeah, just coming." Said Chris, he still couldn't believe that she'd told them who he was, it was kinda weird, he'd now accepted his parents as Piper and Leo, and not Mom and Dad.
"I'll be down in a minute honey." Leo told his wife.
Piper then takes Wyatt back and walks down the stairs chatting with Melinda. Chris is about to follow, when Leo stops him.
"Chris, can I talk to you?"
"Yeah, what is it Leo?"
"Firstly I wanted to say that I'm sorry for the way we treated you, but I also want to know why you didn't tell Piper and me that you were our son- especially when we split up.
"I.I just wanted to spend some time with you, but when you split up, I just couldn't find the words. It's not everyday that you go to the past to save your family and they don't know who you are!"
Leo laughed, "No, I suppose it isn't; but your mom and aunt know what it's like. Anyway we better be getting down stairs. Piper's gonna be wondering where we are" At that Chris and Leo orb out.
"So what do you want to eat Mel? And no I don't mind you calling me Mom its just a bit strange." Piper was talking to her daughter downstairs.
"'Kay, can I just have some toast please?"
"Coming up. Hey, where have you two been?" Piper asked kissing her husband who had just orbed in.
Paige walks in shortly after. "Glad I found you, I've been everywhere looking for you. Piper you look much better, I guess you don't need this anymore."
"Yeah, I feel fine now, or as fine as can be expected!"
Piper and Leo looked into each others eyes, and Leo could see that Piper was lost and needed answers, answers he didn't know.
"Chris I think you, your sister, mother and I need to talk." Leo said not wanting to orb out like he usually did during important discussions.
At this everyone sat down and Paige left realising that the family needed to talk.
"Mel, you know how you said you needed to talk to Chris; was it to do with Wyatt?"
"Yeah, I had a premonition. I saw him when he was about my age and I think I saw the demon that turned him, Wyatt looked really mad. Actually it was quite scary, can we just talk about it later?" Melinda asked, as she didn't want to bring back any of those bad memories that she had managed to suppress for the past year or so. It wasn't only the demon that turned Wyatt; she had recognised the demon, the more she thought about it she knew when it happened, and why her oldest brother was so mad. It was the demon that had killed her parents, or at least her mom; she wouldn't have been surprised if the darklighter that killed her father had worked for this demon.
