Ok. This is basically a filler chapter but as I haven't updated for ages n I'm really busy at the moment I thought I'd upload this chapter as it is even though it is a bit short in case I don't get to finish it for ages n I don't update for even longer.

I'm really sorry about the delays but I have exams coming up and they're important so I'll try my best to update quickly but there'll probably be long delays or else really short chapters.

Please don't stop reading if I don't update for ages!

Sparkling Cherries: ya, I thought I'd give Leo a main part coz in the show he always seems to have the not so important parts!
phoebe turner: sorry for the wait! I think Leo should be quite clever seeing as he's an elder and all!
Nathy1000000: Ya Chris and Leo always seem to trick Wyatt! Thanx - I get a little confused about the whole two world things so its nice to know that other people can understand it! And about your question: thank u for pointing that out coz I had completely forgotten so now I'm adding an extra bit in to explain it - I feel so stupid!
Karone Evertree: Well, I don't know if they do call it the overworld but seeing as they call where the demons live the underworld I figured it would make sense. I find it annoying writing 'Up There' all the time so… I'm glad there was no confusion!
ilovedrew88: Ya, well they are his mother and aunts so I thought that doing anything worse would be quite harsh! I was trying to think of a nice way to get them out of the way!
Cassi: Yay, a new reader! Thanks for the compliment! Wyatt's obsession is more with Chris as a person, i.e. the fact that Chris is his brother.

Chapter 13: A Question Without An Answer

Previously:

"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"

"What have you done to Chris? He's evil isn't he? What did you do to him?" Leo demanded furiously.

"Hear these words we three witches cry,
Across to another world shall our voices fly,
Let Chris return to who he is,
Reverse his morality, return him his."

Leo reached out to grasp Chris by the shoulder and opened his mouth as if about to speak but instead orbed them both out.

Wyatt tried to sense Leo and Chris. Nothing. He couldn't sense them. Frowning Wyatt tried again. Still nothing.

They must be in the Overworld he realised and there was nothing he could do about it. Wyatt let out a yell of frustration as he become conscious of the fact that he couldn't follow them. In this world, as a half-darklighter, he was unable to orb to the Overworld.

"Hey! Let me go!" yelled Chris snatching his arm out of Leo's grasp.

"Chris, calm down." ordered Leo firmly.

Chris simply scowled and tried to orb out of the Overworld but, as Wyatt had found out, couldn't.

"I can't orb." he accused Leo.

"No." agreed Leo, "You're part dark-lighter right? So you can't orb in or out of the Overworld. Or around it either." he added.

"That's sucks." spat Chris moodily, looking at Leo darkly. Then as a thought hit him, "So how come the Wyatt from this world could orb down to the underworld to find me, then?"

"Because whitelighters can orb to the Underworld but darklighters can't orb to the Overworld." explained Leo patiently, "The Overworld is protected but the Underworld isn't. The demons aren't as organised as the Elders; they don't work together enough to join up to protect the Underworld form orbing. Plus whitelighter are supposed to be pacifists and the demons don't think we're a threat worth bothering about."

Chris snorted in laughter. "You're right there." he agreed disdainfully, "All you whitelighters are weak and pathetic. Way too easy to kill. Actually…" Chris concentrated and stared at his hand, frowning when nothing happened.

"You can't summon your crossbow either." Leo informed him, "No darklighter magic can be used here."

Chris scowled again. "But" he continued, "In this world the Wyatt from my world would have been part darklighter and, if everything is opposite here, my opposite would have been here - in the Overworld. So how did he orb up here, huh? There is a way and I'm gonna find it if you don't let me go soon."

Leo opened his mouth as if to speak, then stopped and closed it, thinking hard. 'How had the part darklighter Wyatt orbed up here?' he wondered. This was bad. Leo made a decision to speak to Zola again. This could be important; a fatal flaw in the protection of the Overworld.

Chris crossed his arms triumphantly across his chest as he realised Leo didn't have an answer. "I thought Elder's were supposed to be all-knowing." he sneered.

Leo closed his eyes and tried not to yell in annoyance. This Chris was getting on his nerves. "Follow me." he told Chris tightly.

"Why?" demanded Chris insolently.

"Because…Just follow me!" exploded Leo, unable to keep his temper under check for any longer.

He strode off hoping to God Chris would follow him. Thankfully he did, although Chris wasn't looking very happy.

After a while Leo stopped and gestured through a door, which as far as Chris could see, led into a completely empty room.

"I'm not going in there." stated Chris defiantly. "Nu-uh. No way. You've got me trapped up here anyway - why do you need to shut me in a room too?"

"So you don't go round trying to kill any whitelighters." Leo told him. "It would mess up the balance and last time that happened…" Leo trailed off thinking of the time Gideon had sent him through the portal, supposedly a portal to the future where he would hopefully have been able to find out which demon was after Wyatt. Instead Gideon had wanted him out of the way so he could kidnap Wyatt. Leo had managed to find Gideon and vanquish him but not for a long while and by that time the Wyatt he had known had changed. Leo suspected that this was what had destroyed Wyatt's faith in good and evil.

Leo shook his head to clear the memories. It was no use thinking about what had happened. He couldn't change anything now.

Chris stared at Leo in something close to amazement. 'This Leo is so different to my Leo' Chris decided.

Chris stepped cautiously into the room, realising that since he couldn't leave here or kill any whitelighters then he would prefer to be away from them.

Leo shut the door behind him and orbed off to find Zola.
