I promised four more chapters this weekend, but it doesn't seem to be happening… I'll try my best, but for some reason this weekend's got me really stressed out….

And since Chris won't be alive for awhile… and my reviewers and I love Chris, this chapter features a scene (or two) with Chris… and not in a premonition.

Chapter Eight - The Father and the Whitelighter

He stared at them incredulously. He'd be able to see her again, but for what? To lose her? The trial would take four months… and then he'd switch powers…

The Elders had a screwed up sense of justice… really…

-

She cried into her daughter's hair, as her daughter cried into her shoulder… They were family, that's for sure.

-

There were times in his un-life when he wanted to see the changed future… and then Pandora Adisa Halliwell came from the future…

And with a simple glance at her face, he knew it had not worked. He wasted away in the very plane he'd been conceived on… and he could not move on… and until his cousin came, he had not known why.

Wyatt was still the person they'd tried to overthrow. He was still an evil tyrant bent on the rule of all the world and a quest for supreme power.

Musing over such thoughts, Christopher Perry Halliwell came to a sudden conclusion. And he knew what had caused the sudden rupture into darkness… what had turned Wyatt Matthew Halliwell… and what would have turned him if Pandora had never been born…

And it wasn't human…

A/N: More Chris again in a minute. Now? A special POV…

-

Paradox Bennett Halliwell had not lived a long life. Even if she had not been killed by Wyatt, she would not have lived long. In her lineage, spoken words could be more powerful than any other power or potion. And she was unable to speak.

Paradox had known even during her entire one year old life that the Elders were to blame. She was a smart child. And an even more powerful witch had she been given a chance. After all… she was the only dead baby witch who could still use her powers to travel… and stay under Wyatt's radar.

Although her decayed body was gone, her soul was not… and she had grown older, unlike they others, as she resided in death. As a seven year old mute witch… the half sister of Pandora Adisa Halliwell… and the daughter of Phoebe Halliwell and Jason Dean…

-

Christopher Perry Halliwell watched as Phoebe and Pandora cried together, the remaining three sisters looking on in silence. He knew something would happen… and since Pandora was preoccupied, he hoped his mother would hear him again.

"DEMON!" Chris yelled to the silence. And a set of eyes locked onto him… a set not belonging to Pandora or Piper Halliwell.

End of chapter… Any guesses on the POV in the beginning? Or who sees Chris?

And the whole Paradox's father just came to me… I honestly thought it worked… and I really didn't want Pandora's father being Paradox's as well… it just didn't work…
