Chapter 7: Strange Feelings

Previously:

Wyatt reached up and pulled the cloth off revealing a mirror. His good self looked back at him, his expression of disgust mirrored on evil Wyatts face.

The two Wyatts stared at each other for a moment before evil Wyatt spoke. "I said I would get him on my side…"

"…one way or another…" finished good Wyatt.
"…and I will…"
"…even if this…"
"…is how I have to do it."

The triquetra glowed blue and opened into a swirling portal. Wyatt walked confidently through the portal and faded from sight. "I'll see you soon little brother" promised Wyatt, "And you'll be evil, the way I always wanted you to be."

"How are you gonna show me…whatever it is you want to show me?"

Wyatt looked straight into Chris's eyes before replying, "By taking you back to my world."

"I liked us working together." he admitted, "But it doesn't really matter. I mean, when I go back you're still gonna be evil. It feels like all you've shown me is what we can't have."

"But we can have this." contradicted Wyatt, "To make all this real in your world all you have to do is join me; or, well, my opposite to be more precise."

"Wyatt's working with his opposite to keep the balance, so he must have a way to contact his opposite." explained Leo, "When Gideon used the parallel world to try to kill Wyatt he contacted his opposite through a mirror in his office at magic school." Leo paused to emphasise his next point, "And as far as I know; it's still there."

"Hear these words, hear the rhyme,
Open this portal through space and time
Let my powers cross the line
Switch my essence through the air"

The portal opened casting a blueish light over the room. Chris stepped forward cautiously, and was about to enter the portal when a dark light swept out of the portal, leaving it closed behind the shadow. Chris gasped as the dark light engulfed him and he fell to his knees before keeling over unconscious.

Calmly stepping over Chris's unconscious form, Wyatt cast the spell to open the portal. Squinting through the glowing portal, he could make out the vague, dark-clad figure of his opposite facing him. Wyatt nodded briefly at his opposite; despite the fact that it was still him he was seeing he didn't like the fact that there was an evil version of him running around out there.

Wyatt turned away from the portal and carefully picked up Chris. He walked back to the portal and gently pushed Chris through. A split second later his version of Chris; the evil version of Chris; fell out of the portal and lay on the ground, still unconscious.

Wyatt looked up as the portal closed. Now everything was back to how it should be, 'Or nearly everything.' thought Wyatt grimly as he turned to look at Chris.

Chris groaned as a bright light shone through his eyelids. He shifted slightly, becoming aware he was laying on something soft and that he had a splitting headache. Chris slowly opened his eyes and raised a hand to shield his eyes from the bright sunlight that was shining through the floor to ceiling window and onto the sofa on which he was laying.

The surroundings looked vaguely familiar and Chris tried to focus his mind, narrowing his eyes to try to lessen his headache. A few moments later Chris realised that he was in Wyatt's penthouse but surprisingly he didn't feel any fear at this. He dimly realised that he wasn't feeling any fear at all, 'And what should I fear?' the thought came to Chris, 'I'm one of the two most powerful being on this planet; I should be feared not the one doing the fearing.'

Chris was distracted from his thoughts by the sound of someone entering the room. It was a demon. However instead of attacking Chris, the demon inclined his head slightly and Chris could see fear on its face. For some reason this made Chris inwardly smile.

"Lord Wyatt will be pleased to know that you have awakened." the demon told Chris, although Chris sensed that the demon wasn't pleased that he had awakened. In fact, Chris frowned at this; he could sense that the demon really didn't like him. Annoyed at the demon's inward lack of admiration for him, Chris looked around the room his gaze fixing on an athame lying on a nearby table. Using his telekinesis Chris gestured to the athame and smiled in satisfaction as it hit the demon, engulfing it in flames.

"Glad to see you're awake." a cold voice behind him said.

Chris spun round. "Wyatt."

"Yes, and it's really me. Not my good opposite." Wyatt sneered.

Chris found himself agreeing with the uncomplimentary comment about the good version of Wyatt. "What happened?" he asked uneasily.

Wyatt just smiled at this. "How do you feel?" he asked.

"Uh…fine, normal." replied Chris

"Really?" Wyatt still had an odd smile on his face which was making Chris feel slightly uneasy.

"How should I be feeling?" he asked in return, warily standing up.

Wyatt inclined his head to the side but didn't answer. "You killed one of my guards." he commented mildly.

"Oh...yeah…well, he pissed me off." replied Chris nonchalantly.

Wyatt didn't seem angry at this; on the contrary he seemed almost pleased. "Last time I saw you, you wouldn't have killed a demon just cause he didn't respect you…ah, don't try to deny it Chris." he added at Chris's look, "I could sense it from you."

"Well, Ok, maybe so" admitted Chris, "And maybe I do feel different; a little anyway. I feel…freer, less tied down; and strong…powerful even."

Wyatt couldn't quite keep the triumphant smile off his face so he continued asking Chris questions. "Do you want to go back to Leo, now?" he asked

Chris opened his mouth to automatically say yes but something stopped him. Considering, he realised he didn't want to go back to the overworld, "No," Chris replied, somewhat surprised at his answer, "I don't actually. The overworld is just too…too, well, perfect."

"Too good?" supplied Wyatt with a smirk.

"Yes, actually…" Chris trailed off. Before he had always thought of the Overworld as the centre for good; a good place. But now he felt almost disgust at the Elders. "The Elders are too much like dictators." he decided finally.

"Yes, you got that right." agreed Wyatt, watching Chris for his reaction, "Always telling you what you can and can't do; trying to rule your lives; deciding what's right and what's wrong. Who are they to tell you that? You have to break free of them; live life your way"

Chris nodded his head in complete agreement with Wyatt. "Can't I stay here with you?" he asked, "I want to know how you live your life; how you get so many to respect and fear you."

"You want to be feared?" asked Wyatt grinning, "Then come with me little brother."

Leo found Gideon's office in magic school without any difficulty. It was almost as how he last saw it; before he had found out that Gideon was the one who was trying to kill Wyatt. The difference was the thick layer of dust covering everything except the footprints along the floor and the tall mirror hanging from the wall. The mirror's covering was lying in a heap on the ground and the footprints led to the front of it. Leo walked cautiously to by the mirror, not able to bring himself to look into it. Wyatt had definitely been here, he realised, this was how Wyatt had contacted his opposite. Hearing Zola call for him, Leo orbed back to the Overworld.

"Leo." Zola noticed him, relieved, "You shouldn't have just gone off like that."

"My son is in danger." Leo retorted tightly, "I will do what I have to."

"It's about Chris that I called you back." replied Zola, "Jayne and some other Elders have sensed another shift between worlds. They believe this means that everything is back in it rightful place, which would mean that Chris is back in this world."

"Chris is back…then why isn't he here…Wyatt must be holding him prisoner…I have to see them!"

"Leo." said Zola sharply, "Leo. You cannot just go to Wyatt and expect to come back with Chris. Wyatt would most likely hold you prisoner too."

"Zola." Leo held up his hands to stop him, "I appreciate your concern, but I have to do this; I have to see if Chris is ok. If Wyatt won't let me come back then fine, so be it. But they are both my sons; if anybody can do this I can."

Zola nodded reluctantly as Leo orbed out to Wyatt's penthouse where he hoped to find Chris.
