A/N: This chapter is shorter than the other one, but I have decided to add a bit of a twist to this story, so I needed this chapter.

Chapter 2 – Leo and Consequences

Leo watched his son walk out the door. It hurt him so much to see Chris in so much pain. He didn't even know Chris. At least not the way Piper obviously did. Now, he wasn't sure if he was ever going to get to know his son. Sure, he could change things and be there for baby Chris, but he also wanted to be there for big Chris. Leo knew that baby Chris and big Chris would always and forever be two very different people, so he wanted to get to know big Chris before it was too late. He felt it was almost too late, though. He had treated Chris so badly and the guilt was eating him up inside. He just couldn't imagine how mean he was to his own son!

Flashback

Leo, Phoebe and Paige orbed into the manor. They had just dropped off Darryl's spirit after using it in Valhalla.

"Geez, it's about time, I was starting to get wor-," Chris froze when he saw Leo. He then noticed that his mother was missing, "Where's Piper?"

Leo had felt an overwhelming feeling of anger towards the young whitelighter.

"You son of a bitch," he said as his fist connected with Chris's jaw. He grabbed Chris by the collar and asked, "Why did you do it?"

"Do what?" Chris said, looking worried.

Leo threw Chris over a chair into the wall, watching him hit the wall and fall on his side. Chris tried to orb away as Paige yelled at Leo.

"Leo, stop it!"

Leo didn't listen and grabbed Chris in mid-orb, throwing him into a cabinet, breaking it and the frame that contained Leo and Piper's wedding photo. Chris was left panting, almost gasping for air. Finally Phoebe got in between Leo and Chris.

"Leo, enough! This hostility is killing me."

"What is wrong with you?" Paige asked, "Have you been playing gladiator too long?"

Leo glared at Chris as he got up.

"You didn't tell them, did you?"

"Tell us what?" Phoebe asked.

Leo glared even harder at Chris, "That he was the last one to see me. Right afterwards I was mysteriously trapped in Vallhalla. Chris looked at Leo with anger written all over his face.

"So that makes me responsible? Is that what you're saying?"

"Okay, why would Chris do that?" asked a confused Paige.

"Why else?" Leo said, never taking his eyes off of a very mad Chris, "To get rid of me."

"It doesn't make sense," Paige replied.

"Doesn't it?" Leo asked, "He manipulated things so I'd become an elder. Forced me out of the house, didn't he?"

"So you could save the world," Chris shot back. Anger was written all over his face, but Leo saw a bit of suppressed hurt in his eyes.

End Flashback

It was that hurt that Leo would never be able to forget. It burned him to his very soul. How could I do that to my own son? How could I not see who he truly is?

Leo finally realized that he was just standing there instead of going after Chris.

"Shit," he mumbled and took off after his son. He ran down a few blocks, but quickly realized that Chris had probably found a secluded area and orbed away. Leo stood in the middle of the sidewalk and tried to sense Chris, but it was no use. If Chris didn't want Leo to sense him, Leo wouldn't sense him.

Come on Leo think. He's your son. You should know where he is. Then inspiration hit him and he orbed to the top of the Golden Gate Bridge. Sure enough, there was Chris, who was so lost in his own world he hadn't even heard Leo orb in. Leo was about to approach him when he heard that familiar jingling. He orbed Up There, just as Chris turned around. He just watched his father orb away from him, a very familiar scene to him.

When Leo got Up There, his dear friend and fellow elder, Matthew, greeted him.

"Greetings, Leo. How are you?"

Leo looked at his friend and shook his head.

"Not so good."

Matthew looked at Leo with a pained expression on his face.

"Yes, well I don't think your day is going to get any better." Leo looked at his friend curiously.

"Why do you say that?"

Matthew moved closer to his friend so he could speak softer. He doubted that Leo wanted everyone to know.

"You are going before the Grand Order of Elders."

Leo looked at Matthew like he had gone insane. The Grand Order of Elders was the judge, jury and punisher for all whitelighters and elders.

"What did I do that was so wrong, Matthew?"

Matthew looked at his friend with a heavy heart. He was about to answer when a voice behind Leo did so for him.

"I believe everyone knows him as Chris."
