Future Piper walked carefully down the stairs, cradling Chris in her arms. How could this happen? Why didn't she notice?
"What I don't understand..." future Paige whispered, "is that they just made ten potions, three spells, AND a battle plan in two seconds. How can they do that so fast?"
"Don't you know?" said past Piper. "Chris can literally freeze time—make it stop EVERYWHERE, so nobody noticed."
"He never told me that..." future Piper choked.
"What's going on?" Colin demanded once they entered the room. "What happened to Chris?" He rushed over to them. "Bianca warned him...but he didn't listen..."
"Warned him of what?" asked future Phoebe.
Colin shook his head, looking up at them fearfully, and ran to the girls' room as fast as he could.
"Wait, Col—" future Paige called after her son. "We know about Leo and Wyatt. We want to help, you can tell us what happened. There's a way...to turn him back to the light, isn't there?" she asked past Phoebe.
Phoebe shook her head. "You're not supposed to change this, I don't think. I mean, from the looks of it, it's Chris' destiny to change everything...perhaps not now, but later. In about eight years, he'll come to the past, where he is in our time right now. In his time, none of this happened...because in his time, Piper wouldn't be afraid to call Leo to save his son. Now we can't call Leo but Leo knows that Piper knows he hates Chris, and...it's complicated, but trust me, they need to deal with Wyatt on their own." She gave them all a sad look. "Whatever the cost."
"Chris!" Bianca gasped, shimmering into the room.
Mel, Prue, and Colin orbed in after her.
"Did Leo—" Mel was about to ask, but Prue clamped a hand to her mouth.
"It's alright...they know," Colin said, hesitantly walking towards past Paige. "What the hell?"
"Look, little guy—I may not be your mother in this time, but I know for a fact that you're not allowed to use that kind of language." Past Paige patted him affectionately on the head, but he squirmed away.
"So...you're from the past?" asked Prue. "This day...just gets more and more confusing by the second."
"You're telling me!" the three future sisters said sarcastically in unison.
"How did this happen?" Bianca demanded. "Chris...I told you...He's so damn stubborn! Why the hell couldn't he just listen when I told him to delay the meeting!? Now he's hurt...I knew something like this would happen..."
"There was no avoiding it," past Piper explained, "Leo's magic would've gotten to him anyway."
"Now, could anyone explain Chris' little freezing power to me?" future Piper said suspiciously, looming over the four kids. "You know...the one that stops time?"
She only got a chorus of "Um..." from them all. Bianca stared at the floor by Chris' bed. The twins started to fidget with their fingers. Prue tried to give them all her most innocent look, but the expression turned from innocence to guilt to tears.
"He didn't want to tell you so we could do it right!" she exclaimed, stamping a foot down. "It was the only way to get past you guys! We had to save Wyatt from—"
"From being evil?" future Piper asked. "We know. But there's nothing we can do. You guys should go ahead with your plan as soon as Chris recovers."
"Yeah?" Bianca shot nastily. "And when it THAT supposed to happen? Elder- boy up there is sitting on his ass watching Chris die and us unable to do anything about it!" And then, before anyone could stop her, she shrieked, "WYATT HALLIWELL, GET THE HELL DOWN HERE THIS INSTANT!"
Wyatt orbed in groggily, rubbing his eyes. "What's up?" He turned to see all of the faces staring back at him. "Why is everyone looking at me like that? Why are we all in our room?"
"You...you BASTARD..." Bianca raged. "You KNEW this would happen, you KNEW it!" Then she grinned. "You knew Leo wouldn't come down to heal Chris...but I know he'll come down for this." She calmly walked up to Wyatt and kicked him in the gut, twisting his arm around until there were several cracking noises.
"Bianca!" both Pipers exclaimed, too late to restrain her.
"He'll come," she choked. "He has to come. Colin, you know what to do. But first..." She opened the drawer of Chris' nightstand and took out a notebook labeled, "Spells."
"This is Chris' mini Book of Shadows I guess; he fills it with spells," she explained. "He only showed it to me, and inside of it..." She flipped through a few pages. "Ah, here it is...he wrote a spell that might work on Leo. He didn't want to try it in case it backfired, but...we have no choice. Now, Colin."
Colin nodded, and with a voice eerily identical to Wyatt's, he screamed, "Dad, help! Demon!"
Leo orbed down in a millisecond to see Wyatt on the floor, nursing his arm and whimpering. He healed him at once.
"Baby," Mel sniggered.
When he was finished, Leo got to his feet—and saw the two Pipers, Paiges, and Phoebes. "Ah, I see that Brian's uncloaked you...The elders have heard a lot about you since Piper's little trial."
"HEAL CHRIS!" future Piper demanded. "He's our son!"
"No he isn't, he's dangerous," said Leo, panic apparent in his voice. "Wyatt..." with a flick of his hand, he orbed Wyatt away to "safety," then turned back to Piper. "He wants to kill Wyatt, he's a fake—not our son!"
"The spell, Bianca," past Paige instructed.
She nodded.
"Take away the blind one's mask,
Make the father remember his task,
Bring back memories from long ago,
So he will understand friend from foe."
Something in Leo snapped back to life. His glazed eyes turned flashed and alert, and he flexed his hands. "I can control it now..." he whispered in awe. "Where am I? What's—Chris!"
(((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))) ))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((()))))))))))))))))))))) )))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))
Leo paced in the attic, stopping every now and then to stare back at Chris to make sure he was still alive. Why wouldn't he heal? The last time this happened, it was Bianca's fault—but Bianca was, without a doubt, dead.
So who could've done this to him?
He tried to sense for the sisters, thinking that maybe they could help. To his horror, he couldn't sense them anywhere. They were gone!
Chris suddenly sat up, panting. "Damn, finally, it stopped...What the hell was that?"

A/N—There will be more! Just maybe not today, I have three other siblings hovering over me for comp possession like hungry wolverines...erk, it bit me! Little sisters (and older brothers, for that matter) have big fangs!!
Thanks for all the nice reviews! I'd respond to them, but I don't have much time, considering my sis is practically drooling on the keyboard (she's purplehorse100, by the way! annoy her for me!).
This story is nowhere near over! I will have more Chris-centered mini plots in here if it KILLS me!! MWAHAHAHAHAHA!!
