NOTE: This chapter is mostly a recap of events that happened in Chris Crossed and Prince Charmed

Chapter 9

Piper and Leo were now in the office at P3 as Chris entered.

Chris was surprised to see Bianca sitting there, waiting for him.

"Bianca…I don't understand. What are you doing here?" he said.

Bianca stood up as he walked towards her. Smiling and placing a finger to his lips, she said, "There will be time to explain later, but for now…"

The smile disappeared from her face as she plunged her fist into his chest, a glow appearing as she began the process of draining him of his powers.

Piper remembered this scene well. She and Leo watched as her past self came bouncing through the door.

Piper was saying, "You know what they say. All work and no play…" upon seeing Bianca's attack on Chris, shouted, "Hey!"

Bianca pulled her fist from Chris' chest and conjured an energy ball as Chris started to sink to the floor in pain. Piper was too quick for her, blowing her up before she had the chance to throw it.

Past Piper walked over to Chris and extended her hand out to him to help him up.

"Are you okay?" she asked, concerned.

"Yeah, I think so," he answered, wincing in pain.

"Who was she?" Piper asked.

"I don't know," Chris lied, looking away from his mother.

The next scene Piper and Leo found themselves viewing was one they both recognized. It was in the manor attic.

"The pheromones wore off right after they took my son!" Piper was saying as they all backed Chris up against the book stand.

"You can't seriously believe this is my fault?" Chris said.

Paige replied, "Right. So it's a coincidence we all fell under Mr. Right's spell?
"And suddenly we all want to bind Wyatt's powers?" Phoebe added.

Chris looked to Leo for support. "This is crazy. Leo, tell them."

"Tell them what?" Leo said. "I'm wondering the same thing myself."

"Okay. So what if I did do it? I was only trying to protect Wyatt."

"By tricking us?" Paige said.

"I had to," he answered.

"Why?" Phoebe asked.

"Because the only reason I came here was to stop Wyatt from turning evil, " he admitted.

"Turning evil? Don't you mean, stop evil from hurting him?" Paige said.

"I didn't think you'd help me if you knew the truth. I knew you wouldn't. The evil that I came back from the future to stop isn't a demon—It's Wyatt," Chris finally admitted.

"Your lying," said Piper.

"No, I'm not," Chris insisted, becoming emotional, afraid his whole mission was about to fail. "He'll grow up to terrorize people with his powers. Take over. Kill even."

Leo said, "Why should we believe you after all the lies?"

Chris replied, "Because you have to."

"No, Chris, we don't," Piper stated.

"Fine. Then don't. We need to save Wyatt now and I'm the only one who can do it."

Phoebe pissed back, "Really? How?"

"The order," Chris explained. "They used their powers to turn him—to reverse his morality. He thinks good is bad and bad is good. That's why his shield repelled you."

Leo asked, "So?"

Chris continued, "So Wyatt brings his shield up for me. He thinks I'm a threat."

Piper said, "So do I."
Chris was getting frustrated. "Listen to me—they reversed his sense of morality. That means his shield will protect him from you but not from me!" He begged, "Please, I'm the only one who can get him back. Let me help."

Piper replied, "Chris, we don't need your help. I will get my son back and when I do, I don't want to see you again."

As Piper and Leo watched the scene unfold as observers, they only now noticed how stung Chris appeared to be from Piper's comment.

Chris looked to both his parents sadly. "I'm sorry," he said sadly, orbing out.

They were now in the office at P3, where Chris had been staying since coming to the past.

Chris' orb cloud formed on the couch. He was holding his face in his hands, choking back tears that threatened to form. Then he pulled himself together. He changed his food splattered shirt and orbed out.
