Chapter 4
Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed. I wish I owned Chris Perry, but wishes don't always come true...
Wyatt walked into the room he and his brother shared. He sensed the residue of magic. He glanced at Chris, but shook the thought off. There was no way Chris had powers. He, as the eldest, and twice-blessed, had gotten them all.
He waved his hand, and the door closed. Then he got into bed, and tried to fall asleep. When he found he couldn't, he got up, checked to make sure Chris was still asleep, and orbed out.
He found himself on a dark, empty street. The full moon provided just enough light to cast disturbing shadows. He heard a girl scream.
He ran down the street, seeking the source of the trouble. A large, blue demon held a young girl hostage. He remembered this demon; he had seen it in the Book. It was very powerful, and no one had been able to vanquish it.
Chris lay on his bed, keeping his breathing even and regular. He watched as Wyatt orbed out, and smiled. So Wyatt did have powers, and that meant that his mom knew, and her sisters, also.
So they thought they could keep this from me? They though that I would never develop any powers? They were wrong. He got out of bed, and orbed out, following Wyatt.
As Chris watched from the shadows, Wyatt used telekinesis to throw the girl from the demon's arms. He then repeatedly flicked his wrists at the demon, until it screamed in anguish.
Chris stared in wonder. What is that thing? And what is Wyatt doing? He had figured out that the thing was trying to kill the girl, and that Wyatt had saved her, but why?
As Chris watched, two more things teleported in. One looked human-ish, and held a black crossbow in its hands. The other was large, and blue, like the one Wyatt was already fighting.
The two blue demons started throwing balls made of what looked to Chris like fire at Wyatt. A shining blue shield came up around him, blocking the attacks.
Hey, how come he can do that? No fair! Chris knew, somehow, that while he might have the blowing-up power, he couldn't make that shield. He's always better than me at everything!
One of the demons took a pouch out, and blew some powder at Wyatt. It went through his shield, and he fell to the ground, unconscious.
Chris watched in horror. Wyatt was going to die! He didn't know what to do, if these things could defeat Wyatt like that, he didn't stand a chance.
He remembered something he had read in that book that Jaclyn had. Whitelighters can hear you when you call them. "Dad," Chris called, trying to imitate Wyatt's voice, "Dad, a demon's attacking me!"
Then Chris helped the young girl get to her feet, and walked her home. He only hoped Leo could take care of Wyatt.
Once he had brought the girl, whose name, he learned, was Kaitlyn, back to her house, he orbed home, and pounded on his mother's door.
"Mom! Mom, wake up!"
Piper came to the door, bleary eyed. "What is it now?"
Chris wondered how much he should tell her. "Wyatt's not in his bed, and I didn't hear him leave. Also, I have this really bad feeling."
Piper was alarmed. "I told him not to-" she cut herself off, remembering that she hadn't told Chris about magic.
"Told him not to what?" Chris guessed that she meant not to go off and save people, but he wanted to find out as much as he could.
"Oh, um, not to sneak outside at night. He's probably at the movies," Piper covered up quickly.
"Oh, I see." Chris almost laughed aloud. It was such an obvious lie!
Chris saw a blue glow behind the door, and Leo stepped out. "Wyatt called me, he said-" Leo stopped when he saw Chris, "he said that, um, got in some trouble."
Piper nodded. "Chris, I need to speak with Leo in private. I'll talk to you later, okay? Go back to sleep."
Chris left the room, closing the door softly behind him. Instead of going to bed like his mom had told him, he waited outside, listening as Piper and Leo spoke.
"Wyatt's in trouble? What kind of demon could be a threat to him?"
"I don't know, I just heard him call me. He said, 'Dad, a demon's attacking me.'"
"That doesn't sound like Wyatt. He would never admit he needed help." Piper knew her son well. "Besides, no demon is as powerful as Wyatt! It's probably a trick."
"Then where is Wyatt?" Leo asked.
"Probably out saving innocents."
"We should call him," Leo insisted. "Wyatt?" He called out, "Wyatt, can you hear me?" There was no answer.
"Maybe he's busy or something." Piper said.
"Wyatt! Come here now!" There was still no response. "See? He's in trouble, we have to do something."
"All right. But if this demon is stronger than Wyatt, how can we fight it?"
"I don't know!"
Chris turned away from the door, realizing just how much his family had hid from him. He also knew that Piper, Paige, and Phoebe wouldn't be able to save Wyatt. It was up to him.
He orbed to Jaclyn's room, and gently shook her awake.
"Chris?" She asked, bleary-eyed. "Is that you?"
"Yeah. Look, I can't talk now, but Wyatt is in trouble, we have to save him"
"Why?" Jaclyn asked.
"Because, annoying as he is, he's my brother, and I have to save him."
"All right, just let me get dressed." Chris turned his back while Jaclyn got dressed.
"Are you done?" Chris asked.
"Yeah. So how are we going to find him, anyway?"
"I don't know. Maybe my parents know a way."
"You're going to tell them that you know?" Jaclyn asked.
"Well, I don't have to tell them, I could just, I don't know. They're probably trying to find him to, so I could watch what they do."
"All right, let's go."
Chris took Jaclyn in his arms, and orbed them out.
Prue looked in Chris and Wyatt's room, and saw that they were both gone. She walked in, and, to her surprise, they appeared in a swirl of blue lights.
She started to scream, but he quickly hushed her.
"How- how did you do that?" She asked.
"I have magic powers. Actually, everyone in this family has magic powers." Chris explained.
"How come I don't have any?" Prue asked.
Chris shrugged. "I don't know."
"Why didn't anyone tell me?"
'I don't know, no one told me either. I figured it out on my own."
"Wow, cool!"
"Wyatt's been attacked by demons, and they kidnapped him." Chris said.
"What's a demon?" Prue was worried.
"I'm not sure, they're evil creatures that attack good witches, like our family." Chris told her.
"We have to hurry, we have to get him out soon," Jaclyn reminded them.
"Yeah." Chris said. "Just go back to sleep, Prue."
"No way! If Wyatt's in trouble, I'm going to help him too."
"You don't have any powers! And even if you do, it will take a while for you to learn how to use them. You'd only be in the way."
"You're going to need all the help you can get!" Prue insisted.
"Oh, all right. But please, be careful. I'll be right back. You two wait here. I have to see how to find Wyatt." Chris tiptoed out of the room, leaving Prue and Jaclyn behind.
Piper sat in the middle of the room with Leo. There was a map of the world in front of her, and she was holding a crystal by a string, and swinging it in circles.
"It's not working," Piper said to Leo, worried.
"We should call your sisters, maybe if all three of you scry for him, it will work better."
"Okay." Phoebe was upstairs, asleep, and Paige was living with her husband Richard, and son, Paul.
Piper went upstairs, and gently shook Phoebe awake. "Wyatt's missing, I need your help to scry for him."
"Wyatt's missing? What happened?" Phoebe was alarmed.
"I don't know, Chris woke me up, said Wyatt wasn't in his room. Leo called for him, but he didn't come."
"Sometimes I wonder how much that kid has figured out. After all, he's pretty smart. When are you going to tell him the truth?"
Chris listened harder. Finally he would know why they had hidden this from him.
"I'm not going to tell hi, until he develops power. I want him to have a normal childhood, without demons. He deserves that much."
I deserve to be told the truth! Chris thought. Can't she see how hard it is for me? To be left out of everything, to be so alone. I wish she had told me a long time ago. I wish she could understand.
"Yes, but he will figure it out sooner or later, and he will be angry that you didn't tell him." Phoebe, always an advice columnist, knew about this sort of thing.
"Can we focus on Wyatt? He's the one that has been kidnapped by demons."
"All right. But we have nothing to go on." Phoebe pointed out.
"That's true, but we should scry. I'll call Paige. Paige! We need you!" Piper called.
Paige orbed in. "What'd I miss?"
"Wyatt's been kidnapped," Piper informed her.
Leo came up behind Chris, heading for the sisters. Chris heard him come, and tried to hide in the shadows. Piper and Phoebe were busy filling Paige in on the situation.
Chris knew that Leo had to be able to see him, he was practically right behind Chris. Ywt Leo was looking right through Chris.
Chris glanced down, an saw nothing. He looked again, and his sight was confirmed. He was invisible.
