Chris and Jamie walk towards the classroom where their evil counterparts are in.
"Are you sure they won't try to kill us?" Jamie asks.
"Well…" Chris says. Jamie looks at him.
"'Well'? 'Well' what?"
"I'm not sure. If they're exactly like us, then, what would we do in that situation?" Jamie thinks about this for a second, then looks at him.
"Maybe we should get someone else to do this." She says.
"We can't." He tells her. "The portal is only open for a few minutes." They quickly make their way to the classroom and slowly open the door. Evil Chris, Evil Jamie, and Evil Leo all stand up. A darklighter's arrow appears in Evil Chris's hand, he aims it at Chris. He starts to fire, but both Jamie's stop him. Chris stares at Evil Jamie just as Evil Chris stares at Jamie. Both Jamies look at their Chris'.
"Chris!" They both say.
"What?" The Chris' say.
"You're checking her out!"
"What?" The Chris' ask. "No I wasn't." Both Jamies slap the Chris'. Evil Leo just shakes his head.
"What are you doing here?" Evil Leo asks.
"We're just trying to get you back to where you belong." Jamie says.
"Really." Evil Jamie says. "And we're supposed to trust you, why?"
"What other choice do you have?" Evil Chris, Evil Jamie and Evil Leo all think about this for a second.
"They're right." Evil Leo says. "Let's go." Both Chris', both Jamies, and Evil Leo orb to the attic and they look at the portal.
"Okay, uh…" Jamie stares at her evil self, trying to think of something to say. "Stay evil?"
"Yeah." Evil Jamie chuckles. "Stay good."
"Plan to." They both laugh. "You guys better go."
"Yeah." Chris says. The evil Chris, Jamie and Leo step through the portal and it closes. Jamie looks at Chris.
"You were checking her out." She says.
"Well, at least it was you." He says. "Just a very different version."
"She was a slut!" Jamie says as they walk down the stairs. Chris and Jamie walk into the living room.
"Okay." Chris says to Leo, Paige and Phoebe without looking. "So we just sent our evil twins through the portal, although-" He stops when he sees Leo healing Phoebe on the couch. "What happened?" Phoebe wakes up and gasps.
"Thank god." Paige says as she walks over to Phoebe. She goes to Phoebe.
"Stay with Wyatt." Leo says.
"I got him." Jamie walks over and picks up Wyatt. Phoebe slowly sits up.
"You okay?" Paige asks.
"Yeah." Phoebe says. "Just remind me to never park on Mrs. Noble's driveway again."
"Will someone please tell me what the hell is going on here?" Chris asks.
"The neighborhood patrol shot her point blank and nobody so much as blinked an eye." Paige tells him.
"What?" Jamie asks. "Why?"
"Because by getting us all to the evil world, Gideon screwed up the balance, messed up with the grand design." Leo says.
"Well, if you ask me, the grand design is pretty messed up in the first place." Paige says.
"Wait, so are you saying because of what he did, our world is bad now, too?" Jamie asks.
"No, on the contrary." Leo says. "It's good. Too good. Where every little infraction is a capital offense and everyone just accepts it."
"Oh, so we're starring in a little movie called Pleasantville?" Paige asks.
"Okay, how come we weren't affected?" Chris asks.
"Because we must have been crossing over when the shift occurred." Leo tells him.
"Well, that must mean Gideon's not affected, either." Paige says.
"No, he wouldn't be because he's an Elder."
"How do we know he's not using the situation to his advantage, you know, come after Wyatt again?" Chris asks.
"Because I'm going to find him first." Leo tells him.
"No, you can't hurt him, Leo, not until he shifts the balance back." Phoebe says. "And you know he knows how to do that." They all stand in silence for a few seconds.
"Oh, my god." Paige says. "We totally forgot about Piper. We have to get to the hospital."
"Who's going to watch Wyatt?" Leo asks.
"We will." Chris says. Leo stares at him. "Look, I didn't come all the way from the future just to lose him now, all right?" Leo nods and orbs out. Phoebe stands up.
"I think we should drive." She says. "I don't want to risk orbing."
"Hey, just watch your speed, okay?" Phoebe looks at Chris and nods. Paige and Phoebe leave. Chris turns and looks at Wyatt, who's in Jamie's arms.
OOO
Paige and Phoebe walk into the hospital. They look around to see a lot more people in the hospital than usual.
"Wow." Paige says. "It's, uh…just as creepy in here as it is out there."
"Actually, creepier." Phoebe says as they walk up to the reception desk.
"Welcome to San Francisco Memorial!" The nurse says with a gigantic smile. "How can I help, help, help you?"
"Well, you could take it down a notch." Paige says. The nurse frowns. Phoebe smiles.
"Oh, she's kidding." Phoebe giggles. "She's a kidder. Uh, just out of curiosity, what happened here? Was it a freeway accident?"
"Oh, heavens, no!" The nurse says. "It's always like this around here." She leans into them. "Lawbreakers, you know." She whispers.
"Right." Phoebe says.
"You visiting?" The nurse asks.
"Uh, yes. Piper Halliwell?" The nurse types on her computer.
"Halliwell, Halliwell…uh, what was her offense?"
"Oh, no, no offense." Phoebe says. "She's having a baby."
"Ohh, a baby!" The nurse says. "Ohh, why didn't you say so!"
"Cause we were just too excited." Paige says sarcastically, but the nurse didn't pick up on it.
"Oh, of course you are!" She says. "There's nothing more exciting than a baby!" She looks at her computer. "Uh, room 1402, but don't dawdle. Visiting hours are almost over. You have a wonderful day, now, okay?"
"Day?" Paige grabs Phoebe's arm and looks at her watch. "It's almost eight o'clock. It should be dark now."
"Dark?" The nurse asks. "Why on earth would anyone say such a depressing thing? Imagine the sun going away, not having sunshine all the time! Anyone who'd want that should be, well-well… Shot!" Other people look over there, along with a Police Officer. Phoebe turns around, laughing and heads toward the elevators.
"She's joking!" Phoebe smiles. "That's my sister the jokester!" Paige pushes the button on the elevator. "We're going to go see our other sister now. She's having a baby." Everyone smiles. "Yeah. Okay. Have a good day…everyone." They go in and the elevator doors close. The elevator goes to Piper's floor, Paige and Phoebe walk peek into her room. They see her sitting
on a bed, eating.
"Oh, there you guys are." Piper says. "Where have you been?"
"She seems normal." Paige says.
"Come on, come in, come in." Paige and Phoebe walk into the room.
"Piper, are you okay?" Phoebe asks.
"Of course I'm okay." Piper smiles. "I'm having a baby, for crying out loud." She holds out a JELL-O cup and smiles. "Jell-O? It's really yummy."
"No, thanks." Paige says. The orderly walks in.
"Excuse me." He says. "How'd you like your dinner?"
"Are you kidding?" Piper asks. "The frozen peas and processed turkey? It was to die for." The orderly goes to remove the tray. "Oh, here, let me give you a hand." Piper notices that his right hand's missing. She looks up at him, and they both start laughing. Phoebe and Paige stare at her.
"Piper, that's not funny." Phoebe tells her.
"Oh, that's okay." The orderly says. "It's my fault it even happened."
"Why is it your fault?" Paige asks.
"Oh, I used my cell phone in the hospital." He says. "Talk about your big no-nos. Hey, good luck with the little one."
"Thanks." Piper smiles as the orderly leaves. "He really should've known better."
"Piper, snap out of it!" Phoebe says. "This is crazy-making!"
"What is?" Piper asks.
"This." Phoebe says gesturing to the room around them. "Everything! You, the hand, the whole damn world! It's driving me insane!"
"Phoebe, you really shouldn't swear." Piper tells her. "They will cut your tongue out."
"Ohh, this is ridiculous!" Paige says.
"Okay, Piper, you have to listen to me." Phoebe says. "Wyatt is in danger."
"What do you mean?" Piper asks. "What kind of danger?"
"It's Gideon." Paige tells her. "He's trying to kill him." Piper stares at her sisters, then bursts out laughing. "It's not funny! I'm being serious."
"That's ridiculous! He's an Elder. He couldn't hurt a fly." Piper continues laughing. The doctor walks into the room.
"What's so funny?" He asks.
"Oh, don't ask." Piper feels a contraction and gasps in pain.
"Whoopsy!" The doctor says. "That's not good."
"What's not good?" Phoebe asks. "What's going on?"
"Those darn contractions." Piper says. "They're a lot more painful than they should be."
"What does that mean?" Paige asks.
"It means visiting hours are over." The doctor waves at them. "Buh-bye now."
"No, we're not leaving her." Phoebe says.
"Oh, I'm sorry, but rules are rules." The doctor tells them. "Did you want to keep your legs?" Paige and Phoebe think about this for a second.
"We'll call you." Phoebe tells Piper.
"Okey-dokey." Piper says as Paige and Phoebe leave. She has a contraction. "Ouchy!"
Paige and Phoebe walk down the hall.
"Are you sure we should leave?" Paige asks Phoebe. "I'm worried about her."
"We have to." Phoebe says. "We can't wait for Leo. We have to fix this. This isn't the world we want Chris to be born into."
"Okay, but how?" Paige asks. "Okay? Especially now that we're down a sister." Phoebe looks at her sister.
"Maybe we should have another little talk with ourselves."
OOO
Meanwhile, Chris and Jamie are in the attic desperately trying to find Gideon. Leo, who had came back a few minutes earlier, walks in with Wyatt.
"Anything?" He asks Chris.
"Yeah, I thought I had him for a sec." Chris says. "But then I lost him."
"Well, keep looking." Leo tells him. "Gideon's bound to surface again." He puts Wyatt in his playpen.
"Well, maybe you should ask the other Elders for some help." Jamie suggests.
"No." Leo tells her. Chris stops scrying and looks at his father.
"Huh." He says. "Trouble in paradise?"
"Let's just say we're not seeing eye to eye." Leo says.
"Well, then maybe you should…" Chris stares at Leo. "I don't know, quit." Leo looks at him. "Look, the girls are going to need another Whitelighter the moment I'm gone anyway."
"That's not why you want me to quit, Chris."
"Okay, fine, I admit, I would like to go back to a future where my parents are still together, all right?"
"It's just like I said when I was making the potion…" Leo stops and realizes something. "The potion."
"What about the potion?" Jamie asks.
"Well, Gideon didn't want it to work, right?" Leo asks. "But he did want us in this other world, which means it probably does work, which means we can get you home." Chris shakes his head.
"No." He says. "I'm not going back."
"Chris, you have to." Leo says. Jamie stays silent.
"Not until I finish what I came here to do, and that's to save Wyatt from tur…" Chris stops. "Turning evil."
"What?" Leo asks.
"Well, what I don't understand is, if Gideon always viewed Wyatt as a threat, why did he turn him evil in my future?"
"I don't think he did intentionally." Leo says. "I think Gideon tried to kill Wyatt in your future… Only just like in this time, he found out that Wyatt can protect himself. So, he probably had to get him away so he could figure out how to do it."
"You mean kidnap him." Jamie says.
"Imagine being taken away from us for weeks, maybe even months." Chris leans forward and puts his head down. Jamie looks like she's about to cry. "Constantly fending off Gideon's attack." They all look over at Wyatt.
"I had no idea." Chris says.
"We're going to change that future, Chris." Leo walks over to Chris. "For both of your sakes." Chris smirks. Jamie smiles at them.
OOO
At Magic School, Paige and Phoebe walk into Gideon's office and start to look around.
"The Power of Four has worked before." Phoebe says.
"Yep, but that was when we were in the same world." Paige says. "We can't even contact them now." Phoebe picks up the telephone, puts it to her ear.
"There must've been a way that Gideon contacted his evil counterpart." She hangs up the phone and picks up a paperweight. Phoebe looks up, noticing there is in echo. "Hey, do you hear an echo?" She puts the paperweight down and sees a fallen chess piece. She goes over to the mirror and pulls back the curtain, seeing Evil Phoebe doing the same thing. They smile.
"I knew it!" The both say. Both Paiges walk to the mirror.
"Nice to see you." They say.
"So, is your world as messed up as ours?" Phoebe asks.
"I've never seen everybody so miserable." Evil Phoebe says. "It's like, every little good thing that happens…"
"Gets punished." Paige finishes for her.
"Limbs get cut off for saying gesundheit." Evil Paige says.
"I never thought I'd say this, but I would kill for some daylight right now." Evil Phoebe says.
"Oh, we got plenty of it in our world." Phoebe tells her.
"It sucks." The Paiges say.
"So what do you think happened?" Evil Phoebe asks.
"I think we did too much good together when we were trying to get Gideon in your world." Phoebe says.
"My thoughts exactly."
"Maybe we need to do some serious evil on your side to shift the balance back." Evil Paige says.
"Right." Paige nods.
"The problem is, I don't know if our collective powers will work with us in different worlds."
"Well, we better think of something fast, because Gideon's still after Wyatt in both of them." Evil Phoebe says.
"The Power of Three." The Paiges say.
"What?" Both Phoebes ask.
"If we can cast a spell on our respective Pipers…" Paige begins.
"We're back to full power again." Evil Paige finishes.
"And bring us to your side so we could shift the balance back…" Evil Phoebe starts.
"And then kick some ass." Phoebe ends.
"I like it!" They all say.
OOO
Paige and Phoebe orb to the attic, where Leo, Chris and Jamie are. Jamie looks at them.
"What are you guys doing here?" Jamie asks. "Is Piper okay?" Paige and Phoebe go to the Book of Shadows.
"No, but she will be, thanks to us and our evil twins." Phoebe says.
"Wait, you saw them?" Chris asks. "Where?" Phoebe opens the book.
"In Gideon's office." Paige tells him. "Talk about your vanity mirrors."
"We have a plan." Phoebe says.
"Yeah, we're going to shift the world back from Gideon so he can't use it to his advantage." Paige says.
"How?" Leo asks.
"We're going to use a spell to-" Phoebe is cut off by a gleam going through both hers and Paige's bodies. They smile. Chris looks at Leo.
"What just happened?" He asks.
"I don't know." Leo turns to Phoebe and Paige. "Are you guys all right?"
"Yeah." Paige says. "Yeah. I've never felt better." Phoebe nods.
"Okay." Chris says. "So back to the plan. You were saying?"
"Yeah, the plan was just to go see Piper in the hospital." Phoebe says.
"That's a really good plan." Paige says. Phoebe giggles.
"I know." Jamie stares at them as they leave. She looks at Chris and Leo.
"Uh-oh." Leo grabs Wyatt and him, Chris and Jamie follow Phoebe and Paige down the stairs.
"No time to dawdle." Phoebe says. "There's a baby on the way."
"This is crazy." Leo says. "You can't leave like this." They begin to walk to walk toward the first floor.
"Well, we can't very well ignore Chris' birth." Paige says. "We have to celebrate."
"I'm the baby." Chris says. "I give you permission not to."
"What?" Paige asks. "And miss all the excitement?" They walk down the stairs. "Seeing you for the first time, burping you, picking out a name?"
"He already have a name." Jamie tells them.
"Oh, gosh." Paige looks at Chris. "You do, don't you?" She gasps. "Well, now would be the perfect time to change." Leo walks past them and puts Wyatt in the playpen.
"How did you get your name?" Phoebe asks. "It doesn't start with a 'P'."
"It was Leo's father's name." Chris says.
"Aww…" Both Phoebe and Paige say.
"That is so sweet." Phoebe says.
"I can't wait to tell Piper." Paige gasps. "I'm going to get her bag."
"It's in the kitchen, all ready to go." Paige smiles at Phoebe and leaves the room. She looks at Chris. "Oh! You are going to be so cute!" Jamie and Chris watch in horror as Phoebe talks baby talk to Chris. She walks away.
"What the hell was that?" Jamie asks. Chris shakes his head and walks over to Leo.
"We need to snap them out of this fast." He says.
"Piper must have cast a spell." Leo says. "She's the only one who could do this to them."
"Why would she do that?" Jamie asks.
"She wouldn't." Leo says. "Unless… Gideon wanted her to, to distract them like he did before, so he can go after Wyatt." Paige and Phoebe walk in with Piper's bag.
"All set!" Paige smiles.
"Let's go." Phoebe holds up her car keys.
"Wait. You guys can't leave yet." Leo says. "Gideon might be coming for Wyatt any minute."
"Oh, is he baby-sitting?" Paige asks.
"No, he's trying to kill Wyatt." Chris says. Paige looks confused. "Don't tell me you don't remember." Phoebe and Paige laugh. "You're laughing. That's great. Your nephew's almost killed, and you're laughing."
"You're silly." Phoebe says. She stars baby-talking to him again. "Yes, you are. Ooh, yes, you are." Chris shakes his head and looks down.
"Like an Elder would ever, ever do that." Paige says.
"It must be the spell." Leo says. "They don't remember because Gideon doesn't want them to."
"A spell?" Phoebe asks. "What spell?" The doorbell rings.
"Visitors." Paige and Phoebe head to the door.
"Hey, stay with Wyatt." Chris tells Jamie. He follows Paige and Phoebe. He steps in front of them. "Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait. Stop, stop, stop, okay? You cannot open that front door. What happens if it's the patrolman?"
"That's a good point." Phoebe says. "I forgot to move my car."
"Finally." Chris says.
"Well, I'll just have to take whatever's coming to me." Phoebe says. Paige nods. Phoebe steps past Chris.
"What?" Chris asks. Phoebe opens the door to reveal a smiling Darryl.
"Hi, ladies." He says as he walks in. "Chris."
"Hi." Phoebe says as she shuts the door.
"We thought you were the patrol guy come to shoot Phoebe." Paige tells Darryl.
"Sorry." He says. "Actually I'm here to get Chris. I'm afraid I'm going to have to take him into custody for assaulting me."
"Dude, I didn't assault you." Chris says.
"No, but Evil Chris did." Paige tells him.
"That wasn't me." Chris argues.
"You're still a fugitive anyways." Phoebe says.
"Okay, you're not helping, thanks."
"You know, I'm only giving you this chance because we used to be friends." Darryl tells him.
"That is so sweet, Darryl." Phoebe says.
"And, evil double or no, someone has to do the time." Paige smiles, then gasps. "Take him away, Darryl." Phoebe and Paige leave the house.
"So, what? You're just going to leave?" Chris asks as he watches his aunts walk out the door.
"Listen, young man, we can do this the easy way or the hard way." Darryl says with a smile. "Your choice."
"I don't have time for this." Chris says. He telekinetically throws Darryl out the door. "Have a nice day." He telekinetically closes the door, then walks over to Leo and Jamie.
"Was that Darryl I heard?" Jamie asks.
"Yeah." Chris tells her. "Don't ask." He turns to Leo.
"I was thinkin' if Gideon did get to Piper, maybe he left a trail I could follow." Leo says. Chris nods.
"Hurry." Leo leaves.
OOO
Leo orbs into a closet at the hospital. He walks over to a girl.
"Excuse me?" He asks her. "Uh, do you know where the maternity ward is?"
"Are you kidding?" The girl asks. "That's everyone's favorite hangout. Just go in that elevator and-" Leo sees Paige walk in with a large stuffed animal and some balloons.
"Thanks." He says to the girl.
"You're welcome." She smiles as she watches Leo walk over to Paige.
"Paige." Leo says.
"Leo!" Paige smiles. "Well, it's about time the nervous father made an appearance."
"Where's Phoebe?" He asks. "Is she with Piper?"
"Of course. We would never leave Piper alone at a time like this."
"Good, because I want to ask her if she's seen Gideon."
"Gideon?" Paige asks. "No, silly, not with the complication."
"Complication?" Paige gasps.
"Oh, dear." She says. "You don't know?"
"Know what? Is something wrong?"
"Well, I'm sure the doctors are going to find out any minute, and everything is going to be just peachy."
"I gotta go see her." Leo turns to leave, but Paige stops him.
"No!" Paige says. "That's against the hospital rules."
"Screw the rules." Leo walks away.
"Okay." Paige says in a singsong voice. "But you're going to get in trouble." Leo walks down the hallway and sees Wyatt standing by himself.
"Wyatt?" Leo asks. He watches as Wyatt grows into his adult form. "Wyatt?" Wyatt walks toward him.
"What's the matter, dad?" He asks. "Don't you recognize me? I'm the Wyatt you're trying to save, the one from Chris' future." He throws Leo hard into the wall.
"Excalibur!" Wyatt says. The sword orbs into his hands.
"This isn't right." Leo says. "You're good. I'm here to save you."
"I don't think so." Wyatt stabs him. Leo gasps in pain and falls to the ground.
OOO
Chris and Jamie are in the attic, watching baby-Wyatt. Chris is looking through the book, while Jamie sits outside the playpen playing with Wyatt. She looks at Chris.
"So, I've been thinking of some baby names." She says. Chris smiles.
"Oh yeah?" He asks. "What have you thought of?"
"Well." She says. "I was thinking if it's a boy, Christopher Leo, after you and your dad, obviously." She smiles. "And then if it's a girl, I was thinking Paris Renee"
"Not Paris." Chris says.
"Why?" Jamie asks.
"Just because." Jamie stares at him. "I like Renee though."
"It was my mom's name." Jamie says.
"Oh." Chris says. "Well, in that case, I really like it." She smiles at him. He goes back to looking in the Book of Shadows and she goes back to playing with Wyatt. A few minutes later, Jamie hears a creaking sound. She looks at Chris.
"Did you hear that?" She asks. He nods.
"Hello?" He says. Nobody's there, so he looks back at the Book. There's another creak a few seconds later.
"It sounds like someone walking." Jamie says. Chris walks over to the playpen and looks around the attic.
"Okay." He says to Wyatt and Jamie. "It's time to get you outta here." Chris is suddenly magically thrown across the attic. He falls on a wooden table.
"Chris!" Jamie screams. Gideon appears in front of her and Wyatt. He looks at Chris.
"Don't make me sacrifice you both." He says. As Gideon turns to pick up Wyatt, Chris telekinetically throws Gideon. Gideon makes an athame appear and vanishes from sight. Chris rushes toward Wyatt. Suddenly, Gideon appears next to Chris and stabs him in the stomach.
"No!" Jamie screams. She watches in horror as Chris falls to his knees, groaning in pain. Gideon pulls the athame out of him.
"Dad!" Chris says in a scratchy voice. He falls to the floor. Gideon stands up and looks at her.
"You are not taking this baby!" She yells at him.
"Which one do you mean?" He asks. "Wyatt, or your own?" As he says this he stabs Jamie in the stomach. She screams in pain and falls to the floor. Chris tries to move, but can't.
"Dad." He says.
OOO
At the hospital, Leo falls to the ground. Wyatt smiles, then walks down the hall and disappears. "Dad." Leo hears Chris say. He looks up.
"Chris!" He yells. "No!" He orbs to the attic. He sees Chris. "Oh, god." He kneels down and turns Chris onto his back. Chris groans.
"Wyatt." Chris groans. "Jamie." Leo looks over to see Jamie passes out on the floor and Gideon holding Wyatt.
"It's for the best, Leo." Gideon says. Leo watches in horror as he orbs out with Wyatt. Chris groans in pain.
"Chris?" Leo asks. "Chris?"
"Help Jamie." Chris manages to get out. Leo runs over to Jamie and starts to heal her. She wakes up, gasping for air. She puts her hand on her stomach. A tear runs down her face, she knows that her baby is gone.
"Jamie, are you all right?" Leo asks. She looks up at him.
"Chris." She looks over at her boyfriend laying on the ground. She slowly gets up and runs over to him. "Chris!"
"You're okay." Chris smiles and brings his hand up to touch her face. She looks at Leo, who is trying to heal him.
"Leo, heal him!" She says.
"I'm trying to." Leo says. "It's not working."
"What do you mean it's not working?" She starts to panic. "It worked on me. Why isn't it working on him!"
"I don't know." Leo says. "C'mon, let's get him to the bedroom." Leo grabs both Jamie's and Chris's hands and orbs them to Piper's bedroom. He helps Jamie pick Chris up and get him on the bed.
"You have to find Wyatt." Chris says.
"We're going to find him together." Leo says. Leo tries to heal him.
"It won't work. You've already tried." Chris tells him. "Gideon's magic did this to me. He's the only one who can stop it." He pushes Leo's hands away.
"Gideon's magic did the same to me." Jamie tells him. "And Leo healed me." Chris shook his head.
"Just… go." Chris sighs. "Saving Wyatt saves the future. You know that."
"Gideon doesn't know how to kill Wyatt, remember?" Leo asks. "We still have time."
"Only until the trauma turns him."
"I am not going to choose between you and Wyatt, Chris." Leo tells him. "I can't."
"You don't have to, dad." Chris says. "Find Gideon and you save us both."
"All right. All right." Leo looks at Jamie. "But I'm not leaving you two alone." Leo stands up. "I'll be right back."
"Where are you going?" Chris asks.
"To get one of your aunts to watch over you." Chris breathes heavily. "You're going to be fine. Okay? I promise." Leo leans over and kisses his forehead. He then orbs out. Jamie sits on the bed beside Chris.
"Just hold on, Chris." She tells him as she grabs his hand. "Just hold on."
"You need to go to the hospital." Chris says slowly. Jamie shakes her head.
"I'm not leaving you." She says.
"You have to check on the baby." Chris coughs. Jamie starts crying and shakes her head.
"There's no baby to check on." Jamie says through tears. Chris stares at her in shock.
OOO
In the waiting room at the hospital, Phoebe raises a camera. Paige is sitting nearby.
"Okay, Auntie Paige, big smile!" Paige smiles. Leo orbs in next to Paige just as the picture is taken. "Leo!" She looks around and makes sure nobody sees him. Paige stands up and goes to Phoebe. "Don't you think you should be more careful? I mean, you don't want to bring back the witch trials." She gives him a big smile.
"Gideon got to Chris." Leo tells them. "He's hurt bad."
"What?" Paige asks. "Now, why would Gideon want to hurt Chris?"
"To get to Wyatt, which he's done." Leo tells them.
"Gideon is the paragon of all good." Phoebe says. "I told you that. Remember?" She holds up the camera. "Smile." Phoebe takes a picture of Leo.
"But he-he's not good." Leo looks around to make sure nobody's listening. "He's trying to kill my sons, your nephews. How can that be good under any circumstances?"
"Oh, I don't know, but there-" Paige is cut off by Leo.
'You don't understand." He says. "Chris is dying!" Paige and Phoebe stop smiling.
"What?" Paige asks.
"I have to find Gideon, but I can't leave Chris and Jamie alone." Leo says. "Somebody has to be with them. Come on, I know deep down inside family matters to you more than this…" He pauses, trying to think of a way to describe what was happening. "Twisted sense of right and wrong. You love him. I know you do. And that's gotta trump everything, even this stupid spell that you're under. You have to help me save him. You have to help me save them both, please." Paige and Phoebe glow.
"What just happened?" Paige asks.
"I think we were under a spell and he took us out of it." Phoebe tells her.
"Okay." Leo says. "Come on, let's go."
"No. We can't all go." Phoebe says. "Uh, Piper's being prepped for surgery."
"Surgery?" Leo asks. "What's the matter?"
"They're not saying." Paige tells him. "Don't worry. We're not going to lose either Chris." She turns to Phoebe. "I'll go home. You stay here." Paige then turns to Leo. "And you, you go find Gideon." Leo orbs away.
OOO
Paige quickly orbs to the house. "Chris?" She says. SWAT members come out from the closet, down the stairs, out from the dinning room, all pointing their guns at Paige. She raises her hands. "Easy. Easy." Darryl and Inspector Sheridan come in from the kitchen. They're both smiling.
"We got one of 'em." Darryl says. "Stand by."
"Darryl, what's going on?" Paige asks.
"Good day, Miss Matthews." Inspector Sheridan says with a smile. "Where's Chris?"
"Chris?" Paige asks. "Chris who?"
"Paige, please." Darryl says. "We've been waiting here to give you one last chance to turn him in, for your sake."
"Go to hell." Paige tells them. Inspector Sheridan back hands her. She falls to the ground.
"Watch your tongue." She says.
OOO
At magic school, Leo walks into Gideon's study. He pulls back the mirror curtain to find Evil Leo doing the same thing. They stare at each other in surprise.
"He's got to be hiding in the underworld." Evil Leo says.
"I agree." Leo replies. "It's the only place he can go to avoid being sensed."
"Which means he must have both of our Wyatts there, too."
"Still, it's too vast." Leo says. "We have to narrow it down."
"Wait." Evil Leo says. "It is too vast. For Gideon, too, right?"
"Somebody's got to be helping him." They both say.
"But who?" Leo asks.
"Whoever helped him get to Piper in the hospital." Evil Leo says.
"I went to the hospital and tried to pick up a trail…" Leo starts to say.
"But I was overwhelmed with…" Evil Leo looks at Leo.
"Fear." Leo says.
"Hope." Evil Leo says at the same time. They both look at each other.
"Barbas." The both say.
"So, if we find Barbas…" Leo says.
"We'll find Gideon." Evil Leo finishes.
"For both of our sons." Leo says. Both Leos orb out.
OOO
Paige is standing in the hall, calling for Leo. He orbs in.
"Sorry." Leo says. "I was in the underworld looking for…" He sees the look on her face. "What's wrong?" The bedroom door opens and two SWAT members leave. Sheridan and Darryl walk over to Paige and Leo. "What's going on? What the hell are you doing here?"
"Nothing." Inspector Sheridan says. "We didn't have to."
"I'm sorry, Leo." Darryl says. Leo rushes into the room. He sees Jamie laying next to Chris, crying. He can tell that Chris isn't doing too well.
"Chris." Leo kneels down next to the bed, Chris weakly looks at him.
"Hey." Chris says sickly. Paige stands in the doorway.
"Hey." Leo says. "I'm here now. You can- Hold on, okay? Hold on… Hold on. I'm here. You can hold on, okay?" Chris nods. "Don't give up, okay?" Chris nods again.
"You, either." Chris closes his eyes. Jamie squeezes his hand.
"No." She cries. "No, Chris. Stay with us."
"I'm sorry." Chris says weakly.
"No, no, no. Please." Leo says. Chris's head falls to the side as he lets go. Jamie squeezes his hand harder.
"No!" She screams. "No!" Paige cries from the doorway. Leo starts to cry. He puts his head down and Jamie watches as the man she loves slowly vanishes. Leo buries his face in the sheets. Leo looks up and sees Chris gone. Paige stands there, crying.
OOO
Leaving Jamie crying in Piper's bed, Leo runs up the stairs and into the attic. Paige follows. Leo screams and uses energy balls to break furniture. He screams and throws electricity, shattering mirrors. He's out of control. He throws another energy ball at some furniture. Paige is hiding behind a chair. He picks up a table and throws it. He roars and throws electricity at the windows. Paige rushes out and grabs his wrists.
"Leo, stop it!" She says. He pulls his hands away from her. "What are you trying to do, kill us? This isn't going to bring him back."
"I promised him I'd get him home safely." Leo says.
"I know, but you can still save his future, and you can still save Wyatt." Paige tells him. "We just have to hurry, and you have to focus. Okay? Look, you were saying something about the underworld, about looking for something there. What?" Leo takes a deep breath.
"Barbas." Leo says.
"Barbas?" Paige asks. "What's he got to do with this?"
"He's working with Gideon. That's how I think he got to Piper. That's how I think he got to me."
"Gideon teamed up with a demon for that?" Paige asks.
"No." Leo says. "An act of Great Evil in our world restores the balance." He shakes his head. "That's what I think he was using Barbas for."
"So, they're working together." Paige says. "That means they must be in contact with each other, right?"
"So?"
"So, that means maybe that's a way to find Gideon. The next time they try to contact each other, you just intercept it."
OOO
A few minutes later, Leo walks into Piper's room to find Jamie laying on the bed in shock. He walks over and kneels down next to the bed.
"Jamie…" He says. She sighs.
"He can't be gone, Leo." She cries. "He just can't."
"Paige and I have a plan." Leo tells her. Jamie looks at him.
"You're going to kill Gideon?" She asks.
"If I have to." Leo says. Jamie sits up.
"I wanna come." Leo shakes his head.
"No. It's too dangerous."
"I don't care."
"You could get killed."
"I have nothing to live for!" Jamie cries. "Gideon killed my baby and the only person I have trusted completely since my mother died! He's gone, Leo! He's never coming back!" Leo sighs and hugs her as she starts crying again.
"It's going to be okay, Jamie." Leo tells her. "It's all going to work out." Jamie cries into Leo's arms.
OOO
In Barbas's lair, Gideon traps Wyatt in a crystal cage.
"So sorry to lure you like this." Gideon tells Wyatt. "Barbas." He looks around. "Where are you?" He goes over towards Wyatt. "Barbas!" Barbas walks over. "It's time."
"Took you long enough." Barbas says.
"Your impatience is growing tiresome." Gideon holds the athame up. "I blessed it already. Now it's your turn." Barbas takes the athame. "Is something wrong?"
"As a matter of fact…" Barbas stabs Gideon. "There is."
"Why?" Gideon asks.
"Because…" Barbas morphs into Leo. "You murdered my son." He hits Gideon and sends him across the lair. Leo looks at Wyatt. "I'll be right back." Leo walks over to Gideon.
"Leo, please, you have to understand." Gideon says. "I am only doing this for the greater good. I swear." Leo knocks the athame out of Gideon's hand. He picks up Gideon.
"How is killing a child ever for the greater good, huh?" Leo asks. "Who the hell are you to decide that, huh?" He throws Gideon across the cave. Barbas flames in behind some rocks, spying on the fight. Leo picks Gideon up. "I'm an Elder!" Gideon says. "So are you! It's what we do."
"I'm not one of you anymore." Leo says.
"Leo, listen to me. You know what happens. You know what Chris came here to stop." Leo throws Gideon to the floor. Barbas flames away. "Let me finish what I started. Let me save the future, the only way it can be saved."
"You're the reason the future's threatened, Gideon, not Wyatt-"
"No…" Gideon says.
"But because of what you do to him. I'm about to make sure neither one of you get the chance again. Mirror!" He makes a hand gesture and the mirror appears behind Gideon. Evil Leo stands in it's reflection, in the Underworld garden.
"You ready?" Evil Leo asks.
"Remember, you can't do anything." Leo says. "I have to do this alone."
"I know." Evil Leo says.
"Do-do what?" Gideon asks.
"A Great Evil." Jamie says as she walks out from behind some rocks. Her eyes glow white as she puts out both hands. As she does this, a stream of electricity shoots at Gideon. Leo watches as Gideon cries out in Pain. Gideon is lifted into the air. In the mirror's reflection, Evil Gideon is lifted into the air and both Evil Leo and Evil Jamie stand aside.
OOO
Meanwhile, at the hospital, Paige is telling Phoebe what happened.
"Fade away?" Phoebe asks. "What-what do you mean he just faded away?"
"In Jamie's arms, after he died." Paige says.
"Yeah, maybe he didn't die." Phoebe says. "I mean, maybe he was just going back…" Paige shakes her head. Phoebe sighs. "Oh, god. Ohh." She sniffs. "Poor Jamie. Poor Leo."
"There's more." Paige says. Phoebe stares at her.
"More?" Wh-what to you mean more?"
"Jamie kind of, lost the baby." A tear runs down Phoebe's face.
"Oh god." She says. "She must be going through hell. Someone should be with her-"
"She said she wanted to be alone." Paige tells her.
"God." Phoebe shakes her head. "She's lost so many people in her life, Paige." Paige nods.
"I know."
"I mean, first her father leaves. Then her mother dies, then Prue. Then her sister, and now both her baby and her boyfriend." Paige nods. The doctor comes into the hallway. Phoebe and Paige walk over to him. The doctor removes his mask. "Dr. Roberts, how's Piper?"
"Well, that depends on how you look at it, I suppose." He says with a smile. "Me, I like to think she's moving off to a better place."
"What?" Paige asks.
"What is that supposed to mean?" Phoebe asks.
"Well, I think you know what I mean." The doctor says. "She's hemorrhaging." He chuckles. "We can't stop it. It's everywhere. But let's all try to think positively, shall we?"
"Now you listen to me." Phoebe says. "You get your ass back in that room and you save my sister and her baby! You understand me!"
"Security!" Two security guards come towards them. Paige and Phoebe turn away.
"Okay." Paige says. "They shoot people here, remember?"
"We got to get Piper out of here." Phoebe says. "We've got to get her to Leo."
"We can't." Paige says. "We don't know where Leo is."
"We can't just do nothing!" Security guards are about to take out their guns. Everything, except Phoebe and Paige, go in slow motion. Paige shakes her head.
"What's going on?" Paige asks. Phoebe shakes her head. It becomes night. When the slow motion ends, the security guards walk past Paige and Phoebe. "Phoebe, it's night."
"Everything's back to normal?" Phoebe asks. They turn back to Doctor.
"I'll do everything I can." He says. "I promise." Paige nods. "Excuse me." He leaves.
"Leo must've done something." Paige says.
OOO
In the underworld, Jamie stops and Gideon drops to the ground in front of the mirror, smoking.
"You have no idea what you've done." Gideon says in a raspy voice. He closes his eyes and dies. He turns into black dust. Jamie falls to the ground, crying. Leo turns to his evil self.
"Our worlds can never cross over again." He says.
"Take care of your family." Evil Leo says.
"You, too." Both Leos explode the mirror. Leo walks over to Jamie and tries to hold her, but she shakes him off.
"No." She says. "Get Wyatt." Leo nods and walks over to Wyatt and kicks a crystal away. The cage breaks. Leo kneels down. "Hi." He picks up Wyatt and hugs him. "I got you. You're safe now. I have you. I have you." Wyatt looks over at Jamie, who is huddled in a ball, rocking back and forth. Leo walks over to her and puts Wyatt down. Wyatt walks over and hugs Jamie, causing her to smile.
"Hey little guy." She says as she hugs him back.
OOO
Leo, Jamie, and Wyatt orb to the hospital. They find their way to Phoebe and Paige.
"He found him." Phoebe says. Phoebe takes Wyatt from Leo. "Hey."
"Is he okay?" Paige asks.
"Yeah." Leo says. "He wasn't with Gideon long enough to do any damage."
"What happened to Gideon?" Paige asks. Leo looks at Jamie, who is looking at her shoes.
"Jamie?" Phoebe asks. Jamie looks up, tears in her eyes.
"He won't be doing any more damage." She says. "To anyone." Paige hugs her.
"How's Piper?" Leo asks. The doctor walks over to them.
"She's resting comfortably." He says.
"Is she okay?" Phoebe asks.
"We stopped the bleeding, obviously had to perform a c-section, but I think she's going to be okay." The doctor says.
"And the baby, is he all right?" Leo asks.
"You tell me." The doctor turns to the recovery room. He pushes a button on the wall and the double doors open. He steps aside. Piper's bed wheels into position. A nurse carries the baby wrapped in a blanket over to Phoebe, Wyatt, Paige, and Leo. "Congratulations. He's perfectly healthy."
"Really?" Leo asks. The nurse puts the baby in Leo's arms.
"Oh, look." Phoebe says. "He's beautiful. Baby Christopher." Leo looks down at his son and smiles. "That's your brother." Phoebe tells Wyatt.
"Looks like we didn't lose him after all." Paige says with tears in her eyes. Phoebe looks at Jamie, who is staring at the baby Leo is holding.
"Jamie…"
"I'm sorry." Jamie cuts her off. "I can't be here right now." Jamie runs out of the room. Phoebe starts to go after her, but Paige stops her.
"I think she needs to be alone right now, sweetie." Paige says. Phoebe nods. She looks at the doctor.
"Can we see Piper?" She asks.
"Well, maybe just one of you for now." He says.
"Go tell her we love her." Phoebe tells Leo. Paige nods. Leo smiles and walks over to Piper. Piper smiles. Leo grins. Leo places the baby in Piper's arms. She smiles at Leo. Leo looks at Phoebe and Paige, smiling.
OOO
A little later, Jamie is walking around and finds herself at P3. She sighs as she walks in. She ignores all the people who are complaining about her cutting in line and walks straight to the back room. She takes a deep breath before opening the door. She takes a step in and closes the door behind her. The room smells of him. She looks at the couch, which still has the blankets and pillow on it. A tear runs down her face as she lays down on the couch. She lays her head down on his pillow and silently sobs into it.
OOOOOOOO
