Chapter 10

The older witch then knelt down next to the boy who had now lost consciousness. Surveying the damage the man couldn't believe what he had done.

"No" he whispered as the man took off his shirt and wiped the blood from the boy's face. "I'm so sorry Chris. I didn't mean to" the man said as his vision grew blurry.

He then rolled the young witch onto his back and allowed a golden light to illuminate from his hands. Slowly the healing powers began to work its magic on the boy closing the wounds restoring him back to health all the while his brother sat worriedly at his side thinking of a way to undo the mess that he had just created for himself.

Within second Chris began to awaken as Wyatt moved quickly to take him in his arms once again making sure he had the chance to apologize without having his sibling orb away from him. The second the boys senses were back in place he fought harder then ever to get away from his brother afraid of what the man was going to do next.

"Let me go!" the boy yelled.

"Chris please let me explain. I'm sorry. I'm so, so sorry"

"No you're not you hate me, I knew it!" the boy said while still struggling.

"No, that's not true, I don't hate you Chris" the man said allowing his tears to drop down into the boy's hair.

"Yes you do. You're no better then they are" the boy continued as his fighting slowed a little bit do to his fatigue.

"Chris please just calm down and listen to me" he said trying to regain his composure.

"No. I hate you Wyatt! I hate you" he said as his fight now came to an end.

"Well that's too bad, because I love you" the older sibling replied as he placed a kiss on top of his brother's head.

Chris didn't know what to think. He just sat there quietly listening to his brother's heavy breathing while his mind raced a thousand miles per second. Wait, was he crying? Chris thought to himself as he felt his brother's body jerk slightly. His brother the source, the evil ruler who commanded both good and evil to do his bidding, the man who took over the world and even killed his own parents, Wyatt Halliwell the strong man with the heart of stone was upset all because he said that he hated him. Had he been wrong about his brother this whole time? Maybe he wasn't evil after all. Maybe he did all of those things just because to protect him.

"Wyatt" the boy spoke softly now.

"Yeah" the man replied in a shaken voice.

"Why did you come here?"

"Because you needed me and there was no way that I was going to let my little brother down. No matter how much you hate me" the man replied.

He couldn't believe his ears. Wyatt knew something was wrong with him and came to save him. This was unreal. His brother really did care about him which means that he was wrong about him. Ok, maybe not completely wrong but the reasons behind his actions were selfless. He wasn't the ruler of all things because he wanted to be, he was the ruler because he wanted to make sure that no one would ever be able to hurt him again. In fact the more Chris thought about, the more his brother's actions made sense to him.

"Wyatt" the boy spoke once more.

"Yeah Chris"

"I don't hate you"

"Really?" the older man questioned.

"Really. I'm sorry about what I said earlier too. I didn't mean it. You were a good brother to me and you still are I guess"

"No I wasn't. If I was a good brother Chris you wouldn't be scared of me. You wouldn't want to run and in the other direction every time you saw my face or heard my voice. And if I was a good brother I would have never let Mom and Dad hurt you the way that they did for such a long time"

"That wasn't your fault Wyatt. You were a little boy too, what could you have done" the boy said sensing how fragile his brother was for the first time.

"I'm the most powerful being in the world Chris. I could have done something, anything to make them stop but I didn't. No wonder you hate me" the man said releasing his hold on his brother and moving to sit on the couch.

Chris then got up and joined his brother who he was now starting to see in a whole new light.

"Hey I just said that I didn't hate you besides you didn't make them do those things to me Wyatt if any one's to blame they are. For not only what they did to me but the emotional pain that they put you through as well. If I should hate anyone it should be them" he said causing a small smile to form on his brother's face.

"Yes you should Chris" the man began taking advantage of the moment. "They treated you horribly which made me kill them. I mean I didn't want to but I knew that if I didn't stop them they would have beaten you to death and I couldn't let that happen" the man said putting an arm around his brother that was now staring off into space obviously reliving a painful memory.

"Chris, are you alright" the man asked already knowing the answer to his question.

"Actually no I'm not" he said now turning to face his brother. "You really are the only person who cares about, aren't you"

"Yea I am Chris and that's why I want you to come home with me"

The hesitation in his brother's eyes gave the man an uneasy feeling. He hoped that their little talk had persuaded the boy to trust him enough to want to return to the future with him willingly. But were his words enough?

Sighing heavily Chris moving a little closer to his brother and gave him a smile before saying "So when do we leave?"

Thanks so much for the great reviews guys. You're the best!
