Chapter 13
"They've been up there for a long time. I hope everything's alright" Phoebe spoke as she stood at the bottom of the steps waiting for her sister and ex-brother in law to appear.
"Well the past few hours have been pretty rough on them Phoebe so they probably just need a few minutes alone to talk" Paige said as she continued scrying for her nephews.
"Yeah I know but it doesn't make me worry any less"
"I know sweetie, but we have to wait until they're ready to open up. Gees, I don't know what I would do in a situation like theirs. Finding out that the man you've been accusing of ruining your family turns out to be your son who then turns almost dies only to turn evil. Then to top things off he invites his brother who's also evil to the past where they're killing innocents. Call me crazy but I don't think any of this is cause for celebration."
As if on cue the couple could be heard coming down the stairs. Once they were in sight it was clear that they had been crying but then again, that was to be expected after all they were forced to endure over the past few hours.
Unsure of what to say the group remained silent as their sister and the father of her two children took seats on the living room sofa.
"Hey did you guys find Wyatt and Chris yet" asked past Leo as he lovingly placed his arm around his ex-wife's shoulder.
"No, not yet, I think that their cloaking themselves from us which means they are probably up to something" said Paige as she finally allowed the scrying crystal drop onto the map.
"I just hope that we can find them before they call follow through on whatever plan they've cooked up" the middle sister added.
"Maybe we should try a summoning spell instead" Future Piper spoke in a low voice as she continued to gaze out of the window.
"Ok, Phoebe and I will work on it while you guys sit here and take a load off" Paige suggested as he began to leave the room.
"No. They're my kids, I'll do the spell. Will you please come with me?" she asked the future version of her self who nodded in response.
"I'll be back" she said giving future Leo a kiss before following her past self's lead.
The room became silent once more as everyone seemed too lost in their own thoughts to converse. After a few short minutes Paige decided to alleviate the anxious quite that surrounded her.
"My God Leo Piper looks worse then when Chris first went missing, what the hell happened up there?"
"Chris came to visit her" he responded without losing the glazed over look in his eyes.
"Really" said a hopeful yet apprehensive Phoebe.
"Yeah but unfortunately it didn't go too well" the man continued as he now riddled with his watch.
"Oh, what did he say?" the woman continued.
"I don't want to go into it ok. Bottom line he hates us" his eyes watering as he thought about his son's hateful words towards his mother. "I know he didn't mean it and it wasn't really him but he told her that he would kill her if she called for him again."
"He what?" Phoebe, Paige and Future Leo all said at the same time.
"Yeah I couldn't believe it either. In all of my time knowing him and even when I hated him the most, I never would have thought that he was capable of saying something like that to her. Poor Piper, it killed her to hear him speak so hatefully to her especially after everything that went on between them before we knew who he was" the man said as he became reminded of wife's heartbreaking cries.
"It doesn't matter. It wasn't him anyway. Besides Chris adores Piper, he would never do anything to hurt intentionally" Future Leo informed himself while receiving a slight smile from his sisters in law.
"Yeah but Piper doesn't know that remember she just found out about him and they haven't had any time alone yet to work things out" Paige replied.
"Well the sooner we find Chris and cure him, the sooner he can tell Piper how he truly feels about her. That is if he decides to lower his guard and to open up to us" said Past Leo.
"Yeah he does have a knack for holding things in, doesn't he?" Paige replied in a somber tone unhappy with the fact that her nephew had to deal with so much on his own.
"He sure does and I'm afraid that, that's not a good thing. But more importantly we actually have to get to him and cure him before any talks and free flowing of emotions can take place" Phoebe spoke worried for both her nephews mental and physical health.
"Ok but once Chris is cured what are going to do about evil Wyatt? I mean we have to find a way to get him back to the future now the only question is how exactly are we going to do that?" questioned Paige who's response didn't come in the form she had hoped.
"YOU WON'T" a voice from the foyer yelled out startling the group.
Following the voice the group was met the coldest set of eyes they've ever seen.
"Hello all, did you miss us?" taunted Piper and Leo's second son.
"You know it's not very nice to talk about me behind my back. After all I'm a very sensitive boy and if I take something the wrong way people could end up in very painful positions" Wyatt Halliwell spoke as he and his younger sibling starred back at their family with evil grins spread across their faces.
"Wyatt, Chris. What are you doing here?" asked a very frightened Paige. She had never seen her nephew like this before and it made her very nervous.
"Oh what's the matter aunty Paige? You don't like my new look?" Chris spoke while taking a step in the woman's direction showing off his new all black attire. "In fact I have you to thank for it"
"Chris please, don't do anything that you'll regret son. Please" the boy's father pleaded with him as the past version of himself looked on.
"Oh how sweet. Daddy's worried about me" he said turning to his sibling who held a mockingly shocked look on his face. "Well you we weren't too worried for my wellbeing when you kicking my ass in your little Gladiator gear when you returned from Valhalla. Or when you sent me into a portal not knowing where I'd end up or most importantly when you allowed me to die. Do you remember that Dad?" the boy smirked at his father's tear filled eyes before adding.
"I did what I could Chris, you've got to believe me. I would have given up my own life to save yours if I could have" the man said as the tears flowed freely down his face.
"Now look what you've done Chris. Daddy's all upset now" teased Wyatt as he held a hand over his heart.
"I know. I should really be ashamed of myself. Bad Chris" he said slapping himself of on the hand causing his brother to giggle slightly.
"Stop with the games and tell just what the hell you want" Phoebe said having had enough of her nephew's cruel antics.
"Or what?" the older witch said in a warning tone.
"Why don't you just tell us why you're here?" questioned Past Leo.
"Tell you? Umm, why don't we just show you instead" Wyatt said raising his hand in the air before all hell broke lose.
In the Attic
The two Pipers were working on the spell in silence for quiet a while. The stress of the day was weight heavily on both their minds as concern for their two sons grew to an all time high. They just wished that they would be able to get to them in time before they got themselves into some trouble that their mother can't get them out of.
Suddenly images of their son came flashing back to one of the women. Her mind was still reeling over the conversation that was had between the two of them and she desperately needed something to hold on to, to give her the comfort she needed in mist of all the pain and confusion. Some shred of hope that her son actually cared for her and didn't mean the awful things that he said. Even thought her head knew that he was under the influence of evil her heart was still wounded and unable to tell the difference. Maybe it was her own guilt over the whole situation that wouldn't allow her to see things clearly. But either way it still hurt and there was only one person who could put her mind at ease right now and ironically it was her own voice that words would have to originate from. That's when she summoned the courage to talk to her future self in hopes that the woman held the answers that she needed to hear.
"Can I ask you something?"
"That depends on what you want to ask me" Future Piper responded as she added another line to the spell that she was working on.
"How does he feel about us?" she said causing her future self to focus on her instead of the spell.
"He who? Leo?" she asked with an inquisitive look.
"No, Chris"
"Listen I really think that we need to focus on the spell"
"Please I need to know" supplicated Past Piper.
"He loves us, why do you ask" the woman asked as he went back to writing the spell.
That's when she could hear the other Piper crying. Slowly getting up she went over to the woman to figure out just what happened during her long absences.
"Hey what's all this"
"Well he may love you but he only holds disgust and revulsion me" her past self informed her.
"What? What are you talking about?"
"I called him to see if I could get him to take the potion and tired to convince him that he was a good boy and that this evil that had taken him over was to blame for his actions, not him and that he was nothing like Wyatt and then he exploded. He told me that I was an unbearable bitch and that if I called him again that he would kill me" she cried as she broke in her future self's arms.
"Shh, it's ok. Chris didn't mean any of it. I know my little boy and he would never say something so cold to me, to us. He's such an amazing boy and he loves us all so much that he would give anything to protect or save us. You'll see once he's cured I'm sure he'll tell you just how much he loves you" she spoke through her shock over her son's words.
"Really?" replied a hopeful past Piper.
"Really"
Suddenly a loud crash could be heard from downstairs followed by screams. Both Pipers looked at each other in fear and nervousness, worried about what they may find on the floor below.
"What the hell was that" questioned future Piper with a voice full of concern and dread already knowing the answer. She knew whatever it was had to do with her sons. She just hoped that they wouldn't end up doing something that they might not do something that they would regret in the long run or force her to do something that she might.
"I don't know but we're about to find out." past Piper answered back before she and future Piper ran downstairs to find…

Karone Evertree-"how do Future Piper and Leo know that Wyatt hurt Chris? is that part of what he told them, opened up to them? cause they're only from a year or less in the future, right?" Yes Chris told them this on one of the few occasions that he opened up to them (they didn't do this on the show but I put it in my story anyway) And yeah Chris was a little rough on Piper but she deserved it after everythign she put him through. Well I hope that you enjoyed the new chapter and thanks for reviewing.
