Chapter 14
"Wyatt..." Chris said and opened his eyes. The illusions disappeared and he could hear his family outside his door.
He smiled, he stood up and opened the door, which caused Lil to fall directly into his arms.
"Whoa." Chris said.
"Oh my god Chris!" Lil said and hugged him happily. "I thought we lost you." She said.
"If Wyatt wants to fight... he must have better weapons than old stories." Chris said.
The sisters and Leo were in the Magic Room.
"This is what we want, right?" Piper asked as she threw some dust in the potion pot.
"We just want to help... I mean there has to be a mistake, right... we would never just leave. I am sure they wouldn't mind... we have the possibility now to get some answers and we may even help everybody here." Paige tried to convince her sister.
"I know, I know... I just don't know what to expect." Piper said and added the last ingredient. "Well I am ready." She said.
"Me too." Phoebe said, who had been writing the spell.
"You sure that is going to work... I mean we don't even have our powers – expect for Piper..." Phoebe asked.
"You have? Since when?" Leo asked confused.
Piper glared at Phoebe who already bit her lip. "Eh.. since you went to your counterpart... I will explain later." She said.
"We just try it... if it's not working... our bad luck." Paige said optimistically.
"You are in a good mood." Piper said.
"If we get answers, always." Paige simply answered.
"Okay lets do it." Phoebe said.
"I don't want to interrupt all this. But I think Dad is waiting in the Conversation Room for us... and I guess you have some explaining to do or just invent something." Kyle said and Chris looked at his confused.
"What Kyle wants to tell you, in a not so clever way, is... that a few... or a little bit more people heard your talk with Vince." Pee said and waited for Chris to explode o something... but Chris just sighed.
"What? No outburst?" Lil said surprised too.
"You are acting as if I am getting angry everyday... I will handle that." Chris said. "I am not getting angry all the time, am I?" Chris asked a little bit unsure after he got the strange looks of his cousins.
"Well, while you control our members, i have a visit to do." Lil said.
Chris looked at her. "Why... Forget it... do what you have to do..." he simply said and Lil smiled at him. "Thanks!"
Blood to Blood we summon thee
Hear us now, hear our plea,
We ask for truth to be revealed,
Cross all blockades for secrets unsealed.
They were holding hands and casting the spell... and they waited. Expecting something to happen – people to come.
The air between them began to glow and fog was appearing and then it slowly faded... but there was nothing.
"Why does it always look like as if it works and then nothing happens?" Piper asked nerved.
"Maybe it's because we don't have our powers." Paige said disappointed.
"Well at least they won't yell at us now... for going against them again." Phoebe said.
"Great... just great..." Piper said and sat down...
"Maybe it just wasn't meant to be. Maybe we simply aren't supposed to know the truth." Leo said.
"Okay. I want to go home now." Phoebe said... disappointed.
Lil just went into the infirmary as she felt a little bit dizzy for a second... but after a few seconds it was as if nothing had happened.
She opened the door only to see her father talking to Leo.
"Hey." Lil said and she wasn't sure but she thought she had seen her father jump a little, as if he was caught by doing something secret.
"Hey, sweety. What are you doing here... I thought you wanted to stay with Chris." Jason said.
"Chris came out on his own... what are you doing here? I thought you were with Uncle Richard." She said.
"Chris woke up?..." Leo said.
"What do you know?" Lil said confused.
"I told him... I was just here to check... I think I should look what the rest of the family is doing. What do you... okay never mind... you come later right?" Jason said and Lil looked at him suspiciously...
"Yes.. won't take long." she answered as Jason closed the door.
"What was this all about?" Lil asked Leo.
"He just came here to check." Leo repeated Jason's answer. "I am actually surprised see you here."
"Yes me too... I guess I simply had a little hope left, that you are not playing with me." Lil said angrily.
"What a temper, I don't know you like that." Leo said calm.
"I trusted you... and you showed your past self our past... you thought us about future consequences... what the hell are you doing?" Lil asked.
"Lil... we had this talk a few hours ago already. And last time I ended up on the floor... If you want you can do it again." Leo said and Lil glared at him.
"Well then I didn't know you still had your powers... what kind of game are you playing? What do you really want?" Lil asked.
"I want another life... I want my wife still alive and my sons not fighting each other. I want another future for our visitors..." Leo said seriously and Lil looked at him and nodded.
"I think I should go." Lil said.
"Take care of your emotions." Leo said and Lil looked at him strange but left the room without another word.
Everybody was turning to them as the entered the Conversation Room. Richard stood in the middle of the room, he had been talking till now. He smiled for a second as he saw Chris – awake, but then his look became serious again.
The group separated as Chris was going to Richard and they started to whisper and it soon became a loud buzz.
"I guess that is the most awkward moment I ever had." Pee whispered to her brother.
"You are not the main focus here actually." Kyle reminded her.
"It nevertheless feels like that." Pee said. "Let's see what the master is going to tell." Pee said as Chris did a gesture to calm everybody down.
"Okay... I know that you are all upset about the things you heard and as I am familiar with rumors I know that by now I am probably a serial killer or something like that." Chris started.
Nobody said a word.
"To clear the facts I will tell you what really happened and I am telling the whole truth, I promise..." Chris said seriously and tried to catch eye contact with as many people in the room as possible.
"Yes I was in a psychiatry and yes during this time I really wasn't acting normal. But I am not mentally sick or something... i was thirteen and that was the time when the Underworld started to get crazy to finally kill the CharmedOnes or their children. To get the ultimate power. Well I was their first victim. The demon of illusion called Debra – look it up in the books if you want – got to me in an unprepared time and made me believe that my family was going to reveal magic and that they didn't really like me. And I somehow freaked out – i mean it happened in a park. Some mortals called the police and the doctors. My parents found me later and killed Debra and used memory dust... end of the story." Chris told his story.
"And we should simply believe you that?" A man asked.
"I actually don't care. I never asked to be leader and at the moment I am not one either. You can believe it or not. The importance is that we all here don't freak out. We could escape Wyatt, because we all kept together – that ... is..." Chris gaze suddenly became clearer, a realization hit him... "...our power." He ended his speech.
"Excuse me. I have something to check." Chris said and orbed out.
"Chris?" Pee said confused and looked at her father who looked lost too. Just that second Lil entered the room – Jason had come sometime during the speech.
"What is going on?" Lil asked as she saw the people doing their business again, after Richard gave them a sign.
"Chris was just telling us that we should stick together and then he was acting weired and said he wanted to check something and orbed out." Kyle explained.
"Well he is in his room." Pee said after sensing for him.
"Let's check what our big cousin thought up now." Lil said and the three orbed or materialized out.
Meanwhile Richard and Jason were discussing something very serious again and Jason gave Richard a potion bottle.
"I am full of all this. How dare they questioning me?" Chris yelled into the room when his cousins entered.
"Everything okay?" Pee asked amused.
"Sure! Everything is just peachy." Chris said sarcastically.
"Oh poor Chris isn't liked as much as he thought?" Lil teased him.
"We should get the CharmedOnes. It time for them to go." Kyle said cold.
And they all blinked out.
"What are you doing here?" Lil asked as they ended up in the magic room. "I thought you should stay in your rooms." she said.
"Oh you nearly sound like my mother." Phoebe joked, but was relieved that it seemed as if they were finally going back to their time.
"Chris are you okay?" Piper asked concerned, after she had seen him in this paralyzed state.
"Sure, why shouldn't I." Chris simply said.
"Okay... so lets go." Paige said enthusiastic now too.
"Wait what about Jason and Richard." Phoebe said.
"Oh they are busy... but we nevertheless wanted to show you something first, didn't we?" Richard asked his cousins and they smiled back.
"Yes definitely." Pee said giggling.
Leo by now got a little bit suspicious, they were really acting strange. "What do you want to show us?" he asked.
"Oh it's a surprise." Lil said and grabbed for Paige's arm. "Come. I will bring you there." she said and blinked out.
"Wait did she just blink?" Piper asked alerted. She knew that only demons could blink. She, Phoebe and Leo were now ready to fight.
"Wyatt, shield." Leo told his son and Wyatt immediately rose his shield, protecting himself and half of his mother.
"Oh come on. Don't make more trouble then necessary." Pee said nerved and before anybody could react, the cousins blinked out and appeared somewhere near the others, grabbing them and blinking out again.
As they freed themselves from the grips, they ended up on the floor. Thanks to Wyatt Piper landed pretty soft.
"What the hell is going on here?" Paige asked, helping Phoebe up. They all made a distance between them and the four cousins.
"What took you so long?" Lil asked impatiently, biting her nails.
"Relax." Pee said.
"We are in the Room. Here we learn to control our powers. A training room. Which also keeps the powers to get out of her. So nobody is getting hurt." Kyle explained.
"But I am not so sure that the people inside of her won't get hurt." Chris said with an evil smile.
"You are under some kind of spell... you have to fight this." Piper said shocked.
"Maybe our spell?" Paige whispered.
"Oh... isn't that how we are supposed to be. Liars? Evil? Here we are." Pee said.
"Oh this is so not good..." Phoebe said.
"And we don't have our powers." Paige reminded her sisters.
"... wait since when can Wyatt put up his shield?" Piper suddenly noticed. "I thought all your powers were blocked."
"Oh they were. Actually they still are. It's just that we kind of don't need Wyatt involved – so we let him protect himself." Chris explained and with a move of his hand he made Wyatt vanish out of Piper's arms and to one of the corners.
"Don't you dare hurt him." Leo threatened.
"Are you not listening? He is not the target... but you are." Pee said and she conjured an athamate in her hand and she started to attack Leo and the same second the others started to make their moves.
Chris was going against Phoebe, Kyle against Piper and Lil started to attack Paige.
Piper who was the only one who could use her powers tried to freeze everybody, but although they were all acting evil, they weren't affected.
"You know... even the real demons in this time wouldn't be frozen very long with this power. How much thirteen years can change." Kyle said, created a fireball and attacked.
"You seriously want to change the time? Even if you are evil, you must be aware that our death would change everything." Paige tried to convince Lil, who was attacking her luckily only with martial arts.
"Want to count on that... well I guess then it must be your death." Lil answered.
Chris used his telekinese powers to throw Phoebe against the next wall, but she was back on her feet fast.
They had only fought for a minute, but the sisters and Leo were already exhausted. Their enemy were really good, although they were so young.
Suddenly Richard shimmered in with Jason and the Leo from this time orbed in behind the cousins.
"Lil!" Jason said loud, which caused his daughter really to turn around. Jason threw a potion he was holding in front of Lil and whispered some Latin words.
"Pee, Kyle." Richard said loud too and he did the same as Jason – throwing potions in front of his children and saying some Latin words.
But Leo didn't even bother to call his sons name. He only threw the vial in front of Chris and whispered something... and like the other potions they became foggy and made the four inhale it.
Lil, Kyle and Pee began to cough, but slowly the dizziness disappeared. They blinked a few times, till they realized where they were.
"Oh my god." Pee immediately dropped the athamate to the floor.
"I am sorry." Lil mumbled to Paige and helped her up, which she gladly accepted.
"What happened?" Kyle asked.
"A blood spell." Richard said.
The cousins looked at him confused, but then they realized what he meant and gasped.
"Chris...could you please..." they were all interrupted by Phoebe's gasping voice.
They all turned around to Chris and Phoebe, who had been fighting in the corner. Chris was still pinning Phoebe against the wall, with his telekinese powers and they all noticed with shock, that he had also moved Pee's athamate to him and was now looking fascinated at the weapon.
"Chris?" Pee tried to calm him down.
"What was that for a potion you used..." Lil asked.
"To let the other half of the blood dominate – fight the influence." Richard explained.
"Why is Chris still evil?" Piper asked – panicking for her sister.
"Because they are brothers. There is no other part."Pee realized.
"... and maybe because Leo is still evil." Kyle suggested.
"Chris put the athamate away... come on you know better then that." Lil said, stepping forward, but Chris didn't even see that. He was looking at Phoebe now... his athamate in the hand.
"Athamate." Kyle tried to call the weapon, but some kind of shield was blocking him.
Chris struck out and stepped...
"No... Mom!" Lil yelled.
