All right, here it is, the elusive chapter 6. Sorry I took so long, but I was on vacation.

I have a new pen name: Neurotic Cat Goddess. I'll finish this one on Alison Halliwell, but all future stories will be under that.

To clear something up- this is set in the CO's future, not Chris's past, which means that the COs remember Chris coming back in time, ect. Gideon was killed by Leo, and if Wyatt turns evil, it won't be Gideon's fault.

Chapter 6

The three children appeared in a swirl of blue lights. Well, they didn't actually appear, because they were invisible, but you get the point.

They were in a cavern underground. A dark tunnel led off to the side. The two Hinvar demons and the darklighter that Chris had seen earlier were standing around a metal cage that crackled with dark red energy.

The bigger of the two demons held a crystal globe filled with the same energy that crackled around the cage.

Prue was shaking like a leaf. Her eyes were wide, and her skin was pale. Maybe he should have told their parents, let them deal with it.

We can't back out now.

"It'll be okay," he whispered to her, lying through his teeth.

She nodded, biting her lower lip.

"Here's the plan. Jaclyn sets the darklighter on fire while Prue and I throw potions at the demons.

Jaclyn nodded and closed her eyes for a second, getting her power ready.

"Now!" Chris whisper-shouted

Two potions arced through the air. The first hit the larger of the demons, who disappeared in a fiery explosion even as Jaclyn killed the darklighter.

The second demon stepped out of the way of the vial, letting it smash harmlessly into a wall.

"Oh shit," Jaclyn whispered.

The demon stared at the shimmering piece of air. Then he conjured up a fireball and threw it at the children.

It headed straight for Prue. She stood there, eyes wide with terror, as the fiery globe neared.

She put up her hands in a futile effort to shield herself from it, and then-

It froze.

All three children let out a collective sigh of relief. Then Chris recovered his senses and sent it back to its creator.

The last demon disappeared in a ball of flame.

They had done it.

"Did- did I make it stop like that?" Prue asked.

"Yes you did." Chris replied.

"Wow. That is so cool!"

Chris and Jaclyn raised their eyebrows at this sudden mood swing.

"Um, guys?" Jaclyn asked.

"Yeah?" Chris said.

"We still have to get Wyatt out of that energy box thing."

"Right. Now, there's probably some sort of magic thingy keeping it up, so if we just find that..."

"Preferably before more demons show up," Prue added.

"Good point. Let's hurry."
