Chapter 10

They were in the Underworld now. Leo recognized the Seers lair.

The Seer was standing over the seeing pool as Chris orbed in.

"I need some information," he began, "about the future."

"I'm sure you can tell me more about the future then I could possibly tell you," the Seer snarked at him.

Chris appeared to be frustrated. "I just need to know about my brother."

"I think you need to be worrying about yourself right now," she told him. "You've changed your future—but not in the way you were hoping for."

"What do you mean?" he asked.

"Your mother was supposed to fight to get your father back after he became an Elder. Because the Charmed Ones were no more, the other Elders allowed your father to stay with your mother. Because you interfered with things by saving your aunt's life and sending your father away, that future is now uncertain. You are uncertain." Chris was confused. He didn't remember his aunt dying. He remembered growing up with Phoebe and Paige. What in the hell was she talking about? He shrugged if off.

The Seer continued, "Your presence in this time has disrupted the time line. Now, nothing is certain. Including you."

"But how can that be? I'm still here," Chris said, becoming frantic.

"Because there is still a chance for you. Your time has not yet passed." She continued, "You've already changed your life experiences through the changes you have made in the timeline. The memories of the life you had are not the same ones you had when you first traveled to this time."

Chris appeared confused. Then, shaking it off, said, "Look, right now I need to find out who is after my brother. Can you help me?"

The Seer answered, "I can't. But I know of a demon that can. He can scan your brother. It may or may not help."

"A demon? No way," Chris said incredulously.

"You don't have the time to waste. Your conception date is not very far away. You need to focus now on making sure that it happens, otherwise you won't be around to save your brother."

Chris pondered this for a moment. Reluctantly, he sighed, "Who is this demon and how do I contact him?"
