Chapter 2 - Fulfilling the Plot
Disclaimer: I don't own Charmed (yet), I don't own their characters or actors/actresses or the pink poke-a-dotted dress. (you'll see later)
Chris is running around the house, trying to find something. Throwing clothes out of his closet and so forth when Piper walks in.
"Christopher Perry Halliwell. I don't care if your trying to find the president of the United States in that closet, you will not throw clothes around like that in my house." Piper said, walking into Chris's room seeing clothes fling around.
"Huh? Oh, sorry mom. Just in a hurry." Chris said.
"I know, sweetie. But still, if I ever catch you doing that again, I will bust your butt." Piper said, tenderly at first, then fierce.
"Yes, mom. Do you know where my potions book is Aunt Paige gave me?" Chris said.
"Yeah, Chase read it last night, check his room." Piper replied.
"Thanks, I'll clean up the mess later." Chris said, running out of his room, into Chase's.
"You had better, cause I'm not." Piper said, half jokingly, half serious.
"I know." Chris yelled from Chase's room.
Chase's room
"Chase, mom said you read my Potions book last night." Chris asked.
"Yeah." Chase said, reading another book.
"Are you reading another book?!" Chris asked, seeing it wasn't his Potions text.
"Yeah, that is the process of switching books after you've finished one." Chase said, sarcastically.
"Good Grief." Chris said, mocking Charley Brown "Where is my Potions book?"
"I put it back in your room." Chase said, returning to read his book.
"Stop reading that book, and help me find mine!" Chris said, annoyed.
"Nope! Your on your own, I'm interested." Chase said, not taking his eyes off of his book.
"Good god, Bookworms!" Chris said running into his room.
Chris's Room
"I so don't have time for this." Chris said, he stretched out his hands and called "Potion Book!"
"Personal Gain!" Phoebe said, smiling as she walked past her busy beaver nephew.
"Bite me." Chris said "Object of objection become but a dream, as I cause the scene to become unseen." Chris chanted, as the room became organized "I'm late!"
Hallway
"AUNT PAIGE! Please, don't be already gone!" Chris said, as he walked into the hallway.
"No, I'm the Headmistress. I wouldn't let my nephew miss or be tardy for his first day at my school." Paige smiled, walking out of the kitchen with a coffee cup.
"Thank god." Chris said.
"Come on." Paige laughed, opening the magic door "See ya, Girls!"
"Bye!" Chris yelled also.
"Bye!" Piper, Phoebe and Aunt P. replied, having Leo with charges, Andy at the station, and Cole and Richard putting the kids to bed.
"Have fun, and behave!" Piper added.
"Why again does he want to go to Magic School?" Phoebe asked, taking a sip of coffee.
"He just wanted to go, don't know why." Piper said.
"Where is Leo?" Aunt P. asked.
"With substitute charges. A whitelighter was killed by a darklighter and Leo is one of the few whitelighters watching his charges, since he has none except us." Piper answered.
"Mom, why is Chris taking evening classes." Prue whined.
"I don't know sweetie, he requested it." Phoebe answered her daughter "Why don't you ask him tomorrow?"
"I can't, I have SCHOOL! Can I take evening classes, with Chris?" Prue asked.
"NO!" Phoebe said "You have enough magic in your life, also, with the Charmed ones as your parents. You don't need to go to Magic School."
"Quartettes." Prue said, walking away after correcting her mother.
With a look of annoyance on her face "I knew that!" Phoebe said.
Magic School
"Ok, Christopher, here we are." said a teacher.
"This isn't a class room." Chris said, after discovering a office behind the door she instructed.
"Yes. Well, Professor Caldwell will be with you shortly." she replied, leaving Chris.
"Ok, now what." Chris said to himself.
"Hello, master Halliwell." a elderly man said, walking into the office.
"Hello. Professor Caldwell, I presume." Chris said, faking a elderly mans voice "How may I assist you on this fine, fair day." he concluded, while sitting in Caldwell's big arm chair, folding his fingers and laying them on his waist.
"Ah, a wise one, huh. I'll straighten you out before long." Professor Caldwell said, from now on he will be called plain Caldwell.
"Ha, I will straighten YOU out!" Chris retorted.
"Why do you think I will need to be straightened out?" Caldwell asked, smarting Chris off.
"Because of that. You could ask any mortal teacher and they would confirm: I'm a hell of a student to deal with." Chris said.
"Well, I'm glad I'm not mortal." Caldwell retorted.
"Well, you think you can handle Christopher Perry Halliwell. Good luck, I do more harm to magical creatures." Chris replied.
"Enough of this. We need to get down to business." Caldwell said, taking control.
"Ok, what are you gonna do with me?" Chris asked cockily, proving who actually has it under control.
"Well, I will be you personal headmaster since the headmistress is your aunt." Caldwell said, cockily "Your stuck with me, kid. Good luck!"
"Yeah, good luck!" Chris said, orbing out of the school premises.
"Headmistress Paige!" Caldwell yelled, running out of his office.
Manor - kitchen - later that evening
"Christopher Perry Halliwell, why did you leave Magic School premises, during schooling hours." Paige angrily scolded her nephew.
"But, I didn't. Aunt Paige, I swear." Chris said, laying the puppy dog eyes on Paige.
"Christopher. Professor Caldwell said you orbed out of his office." Paige said.
"I did. I orbed to my class. I was already late, and didn't want to be any later on my first day. Also, first impression is what they remember." Chris said, batting his eyelids.
"Alright, but don't do it again. Transportation is not allowed at school. I don't want people thinking I just let my angel do it, now do we." Paige winked.
"Can do." Chris said, as he orbed out.
"Think he will stop." Aunt P. asked.
"Why wouldn't he. He is a little angel. Never does anything wrong, unless he doesn't know it's not permitted." Paige said.
"How does your kids stand you?" Aunt P. asked.
"They don't." Paige simply answers.
"Do you honestly believe he does no wrong?" Aunt P. asked.
"Yeah." Paige simply replies again "Don't you?"
"I know he's doesn't. He is a con artist at heart." Aunt P. said "I went to the underworld last night, and you'd never guess who was torturing the demons, making them beg for mercy."
"Who?" Paige asked, clearly confused by the question.
"If you don't know, you don't need to know." Aunt P. said, getting up and walking out of the room.
"What?" Paige asked "Surely you didn't mean Chris."
"Mom, stop using the words I know absolutely nothing about." Jenny said, walking into the room.
"What?" Paige asked.
"Surely?" Jenny said, confused.
"It means Definitely."
"Huh?"
"Oh! Of course!" Paige answered again, sighing.
Bianca's Condo
"Bianca, you home." Chris asked walking in Bianca's condo.
"Chris?" Bianca asked, stepping out of the kitchen with a apron on.
"BIANCA!" Chris yelped "What are you doing in the kitchen, that's why I'm here for."
"Well, your child decided he wanted something now." Bianca said.
"Baby, that is why I want you to call me. I have plenty of time on my hands now." Chris said, tenderly.
"What about school?" Bianca asked.
"I have this dumb ass teacher, who won't last long. However, he won't leave cause of his stubbornness." Chris smiled.
"Christopher!" Bianca playfully scolded.
"I'm guilty." Chris said, before kissing her passionately.
Breaking the kiss "Don't put the teacher through to much." Bianca smiled, knowing he would.
"Oh, don't worry. I will!" Chris said, picking her up and orbing her and himself to the bedroom.
"Oh, Christopher!" Bianca said, in mid orb.
Magic School - next day
Chris is tying rope around Caldwell, while wearing a pink poke-a-dotted dress. When he finishes, he sprinkles fairy dust on him, and he shines up like a girl wearing glitter.
"You have completely lost it." Caldwell said.
"What are you talking about? I don't understand." Chris said, faking innocence.
"You tied me up, sprinkled fairy dust on me, and your wearing a pink pock-a-dotted dress, and you don't understand." Caldwell said.
"A PINK WHAT?" Chris screamed "I would never."
"Your wearing one right now!" Caldwell said.
"No, I'm not. I'm wearing blue jeans with a red T-shirt. Your not tied up, you don't have fairy dust. AND I sure as hell don't have a dress on. Blue, yellow, pink, green or otherwise. I don't even own a dress." Chris said, scheming his way into Caldwell's pea sized brain.
"Headmistress Paige" Caldwell pleaded.
"Later dude!" Chris said, 'shimmering' out of the room.
"Oh, no. He's a demon." Caldwell said, freaking out.
Paige orbs in.
"What?" Paige asked "What is it now?!"
"Your nephew has gone mad. He tied me up. CAN'T YA TELL! He is wearing a pink pock-a-dotted dress, and he sprinkled fairy dust on me. I didn't have this on this morning. What am I saying, he isn't even your nephew?" Caldwell said, freaking out.
"Whoa, slow down boy. Your gonna blow a fuse. Chris would never, has never, wouldn't do it if his life was in danger wear a dress, any color. All less a pock-a-dotted." Paige said.
"But headmistress Paige. He is wearing it right now, he is not your Chris. I'm not even sure if his name is Chris. HE SHIMMERED! Only demons can shimmer." Caldwell explained.
"Ah, no. Good witches can shimmer. My SISTER shimmers. And don't you dare consider her evil." Paige defended and corrected.
"But she's married to a demon!" Caldwell explained further.
"Don't you dare. He proved he is for the good side." Paige glared "Even to me, especially to me."
"Alright. Maybe he is good. But in Chris's records, he can not shimmer. So it can't be him. And this craze thing he does, why would your Chris do something like that. You told me he would be no problem at all. I DON'T CALL THIS NO PROBLEM! This is a serious problem." Caldwell rambled.
"Alright, I'll investigate it!" Paige said, giving in.
She walks down the hall, towards Caldwell's office. She opens the door and reveals…
"There you are, Chris." Paige said, to her nephew who is working on work he was given with a pair of blue jeans and a red T-shirt on.
"Yep, just working on my worksheets." Chris said.
"Need any help." Paige asked.
"Nope! I got it." Chris smiled.
"Alright. Chris, do you know of anyone who tied Professor Caldwell up and sprinkled fairy dust on him. He has some crazy idea that it was you." Paige asked.
Chris has a horrid look on his face "Someone would glamour as me and harass the teachers."
"Yeah, sweetie. How low can they go?" Paige said, clearly buying his story.
"I know, this is a serious problem. I can't have troublesome students going around spreading horrible lies and pranks on me." Chris said.
"I'll see what I can do sweetie. You just watch your back, ok." Paige said.
"Alright." Chris smiled.
"Love ya, kiddo." Paige smiled as she orbed out.
"I cannot believe she bought that story. I was doubting myself." Chris said.
He walks back to Caldwell's office where he is still tied up.
"Oh, boy. That's not good for you." Chris said as he shimmered himself and Caldwell to the herbs and natural section.
"Ok, Caldwell. I tried to get rid of you the easy way. Little prank here, little prank there. You know. But no, you ignored me, so now the pranks get worse." Chris explained.
"They get worse?" Caldwell said, obviously scared.
"Yep." Chris said, as he opened up a cooler "Ya see, here is the plan. This is honey, and that over there is honey's worse nightmare. And soon yours. Have you ever heard of 'Yellow jackets'?"
"Oh, no." Caldwell screamed "Headmistress Paige!"
"That will not help you, Caldwell." Chris said "It's silent proof."
"Headmistress Paige, please help!" Caldwell pleaded "Please."
"Ready?" Chris asked, as he lifted up the yellow jacket jar.
"No, please, no." Caldwell pleaded.
"Chris." a female voice said.
"Mrs. Jameson? Hi!" Chris said, unexpected for someone to appear now.
"Hello, Christopher." Mrs. Jameson said.
"Hi!" Chris said, afraid of what she'll do with her choices.
"What are you doing with my yellow jackets?" Mrs. Jameson asked.
"Using them to torture Mr. Caldwell." Chris answered simply and honestly.
"Praise the lord, I'm saved." Caldwell said "Call Headmistress Paige."
"Um, no. You had it coming." Mrs. Jameson said "Be careful with my bee's."
"I will, thanks." Chris said.
"No problem, give it to em'." Mrs. Jameson smiled, walking out of her room.
"Ok, now where were we." Chris asked.
"Um, letting me go." Caldwell begged.
"I think not. I was getting ready to release your greatest nightmare." Chris said.
"NO!" Caldwell said, as Chris released the yellow jackets.
Magic School - next day
"Professor Caldwell, how did you end up in the herbs lab and covered in yellow jackets." Paige asked, focusing on only Paige.
"Well, I was shimmered there by your nephew and he poured honey on me, and released yellow jackets." Caldwell said, revealing a stung up Caldwell "Then they stung me."
"We have already had this conversation. My nephew is innocent. Someone is using glamour to frame him." Paige said.
"Can't you see, headmistress Paige, he's playing you. Your Chris may not be a mischievous brat, but the imposter is." Caldwell defended.
"Ok, enough of this talk. Mr. Caldwell, why don't you take a few days off and let me take care of Chris. He'll be fine." Paige offered.
"By his self." Caldwell screamed "Are you mad!"
"Ok, Professor Caldwell, you need a break." Paige said, as she opened a magic door to the mortal realm, she pushed him through, saying "Don't worry, just relax."
Magic School - A few days later
"Ok, Chris, you ok." Paige asked.
"Fine and dandy." Chris replied.
"Ok, call if you need me. Do you want to go home on your own again?" Paige replied.
"Sure. That is if it is ok with you." Chris said.
"That's fine, sweetie." Paige said, as she kissed his forehead and walked out. About five minutes later, Chris orbs out. What he has been doing the past few days.
Bianca's Condo
"Bianca?" Chris asked, looking around the house "You had better not be in that kitchen."
He finds a note on the coffee table
Chris,
I went shopping. Lots of Love!
Bianca!
"Huh!" Chris exclaimed.
He pops a bag of Popcorn, gets a pop and orders PPV on TV. Sits down, and waits for Bianca. When it's time for school to end, he orbs home so they won't get suspicious.
Manor - Hallway
"Aunts, Uncles, Mom, Dad." Chris called down the hall. "Hello?"
Screams are heard upstairs.
"MOM!" Chris screamed.
He runs up the stairs, and sees it was a demon doing the screaming.
"Who sent you?" Phoebe yelled.
"Elizabeth." the demon yelled, revealing Brent.
"Oh, that really helps." Paige said sarcastically.
"She is a high level demon. Really high. Also, she was Barbus's lover. She loved him, and you killed him." Brent spat hatefully.
"She LOVED him!" Aunt P. said, unbelievably.
"Yes! She and their son wants revenge." he simply said.
"Their son?" Paige questioned.
"Yes, his father was killed when he was 5." Brent said "Can you imagine."
"Actually, we can." Piper replied.
"Oh, like that counts. Your mother had it coming. Like you do." Brent said "And your father just don't love you."
"You SOB, you have no right. Your kind killed her." Piper said angrily.
"And we will kill you 4 too. We almost killed Prue." he said, an wicked smile on his lips.
"The hell you will." Aunt P. screamed.
"Ok, last question. How does this "Elizabeth" want her revenge." Phoebe asked.
"The same way you got yours." Brent said "Just with… a… little… tweaking. You killed her demon because he helped kill your son. She'll kill your grandchild, because you killed her demon."
"Good thing we don't have a grandchild, huh." Paige said.
"Ah, but you do. The second child of the second Quartette is expecting. Well, she is." Brent said.
"I don't have a daughter born second, I have a son." Piper said.
"His girlfriend's expecting." Brent said.
"He's not even dating." Piper yelled.
"Ah, but he is. He is dating the daughter of the Perry Phoenixes. Bianca I do believe her name is." he gets a look of pain on his face and explodes.
"Shoot!" Paige said "I hate when that happens. He was just starting to talk to."
"Could it be true, could Chris be dating Bianca, and she's pregnant." Piper asked, scared.
"I think he was lying, sweetie." Paige said.
"I don't guys, I'm an empath and a mind reader. He believed what he said." Phoebe said.
"CHRIS!" Aunt P. yelled "I wouldn't put it past him."
"Um, guys." Phoebe said, pointing to Chris, with his fist in the heart grab position.
"Chris." Piper asked. "I didn't know you had that kind of powers."
"Nobody did. Then again, only one person really knows me." Chris said, a bit of anger in his words.
"Are you mad at us?" Paige asked.
"No, of course I'm not. I'm mad at him. He was telling you to much." Chris said.
"Sweetie, have you met Bianca." Piper asked.
"Yes, and she's pregnant." Chris said slowly.
"Why didn't you tell us, sweetheart?" Piper asked.
"I was scared of what you'd do. You always told me Bianca was a bad person, stay away from her. What was I to expect you'd do to our child?" Chris said.
"Sweetie, I'd never hurt your child. Bianca's or not." Piper said, tears threatening to fall.
"I'm sorry. It's just, I was scared. Just plain scared. I was scared of everything I came in contact with. Just everything." Chris said, honestly.
"It's ok, sweetie." Aunt P. said.
"Can I ask you something?" Paige asked.
"Sure!" Chris said.
"Is Caldwell crazy, or did you do all that stuff." Paige asked, a smile forming.
"I plea the fifth, for what I say might incriminate me." Chris said, a slight frown forming.
"I knew it, I knew it." Aunt P. said.
"Yeah, yeah, yeah. You knew it. You're the all knowing." Paige said, smiling.
"Yep, you know it." Aunt P. said smiling.
"Ok, so Caldwell isn't crazy." Paige said.
"Well, he is crazy, but all he said was true." Chris replied.
"Even the pink pock-a-dotted dress." Paige asked, scared of the answer.
"Even the pink poke-a-dotted dress." Chris replied, head down from embarrassment "What I'll do to get revenge on a teacher. I mean teach him a lesson."
"Um huh, yeah right." Aunt P. smiled.
"What?" Chris asked, faking innocence.
Underworld
We see the scene play in a water pool as Elizabeth and William watch it play.
"DAMN! We were so close. I though we had them." Elizabeth yelled in disappointment.
"Mother, I think I've found a problem in our plan." William confirmed.
"You don't say." Elizabeth said sarcastically.
"No, I'm serous. I think the child is more powerful than he lets on. He might sweep us up like dirt." William said.
"You think he is powerful. But we've seen his adult self. He wasn't that powerful." Elizabeth questioned.
"We don't know personally. Everyone that he questioned, mysteriously disappeared. Vanquished. But by whom. I do believe it was him." William stated.
"True, but he couldn't have done all that damage." Elizabeth pointed out.
"Why not. All the vanquishes returned to normal after he was vanquished." William also pointed out.
"Exactly my point, my dear sweet, ignorant son. Vanquished." Elizabeth said.
"He was worried about his brother, he was distracted. The very reason he had returned, why he left everything behind was before his eyes. He had to do something." William stated.
"Why don't we summon him?" Elizabeth said.
"You can, but I won't put my life on the line." William said, looking her dead in the eye.
"Scared?" Elizabeth questioned.
"Yeah!" William said in a disbelieving voice "Mother, he killed every demon that he questioned. One I do recall dieing that year was the 4th source."
"Oh, William, he couldn't of killed him." Elizabeth stated.
"Suit yourself." William said, walking off "See you in hell." he called back to her casually.
Elizabeth set a bunch of candles in a circle. She lights them and chanted a spell in an dead tongue. Out of a bright light, Chris Halliwell appeared.
"What the hell?" (F) Chris asked.
"Hello my dear, how nice to see you." Elizabeth said in a cold voice.
"Who the hell are you, and why did you summon me for?" (F) Chris asked.
"My name is Elizabeth, and I wanted to use you as a tool. To help me in my plot." Elizabeth said.
"Um huh, yeah right. What is your plot?" (F) Chris asked.
"To take the charmed ones grandchild." Elizabeth said evilly "The second charmed one to be precise."
"Quartette." (F) Chris corrected.
"What?" Elizabeth said completely bewildered.
"Quartette. Their the Quartettes now." (F) Chris corrected again "And you won't hurt him, that's my son."
"Oh, but I will with your help." Elizabeth said.
"Goodbye." (F) Chris said.
"What?"
"G-o-o-d-b-y-e." (F) Chris spelled out "Goodbye." he lifted his hand and she went up in flames "Nobody hurts my family." he orbed out.
