Chapter Twenty One – The Silent Manor
Chris slowly stood up and looked at his father who was standing by the foyer table. He looked beaten up, his robes were torn, and he looked tired.
"I am so glad you survived." Leo smiled, "Are you alright? Do you want me to heal your head?"
Chris tackled Leo to the floor, grabbing his fathers clothes and shaking him up and down, and shaking his body up and down. Then punching him across the face, again, again, and again.
"Chris!" Leo screamed.
"NO!" Chris yelled, "You – Left me!" He him again, and stood up bring him up with him, and throwing him against the wall. "You left us!" Chris screamed.
"Chris wait, I can ex-" Before Leo could finish, Chris kicked him in the stomach with his leg and punched him to the ground.
"You left us!" Chris screamed, tears formed in his eyes, Leo laid on the ground of the foyer bleeding from the nose and mouth, and hugging his rib cage. "You turned your back and you left us." Chris said, "And now your back!"
"Chris." Leo said getting up. "Where did you get so strong?" Chris turned and then he extended his leg to Leo's head.
"You have ten seconds to leave this house or I swear I will kill you." Chris said, then as he turned he saw someone orb into the manor and Chris was kicked to the floor.
"Wait, No!" Leo
yelled. Chris got up, and tried to punch whoever kicked him, but the
man put his foot on Chris' back and he was pinned on the floor
knocking the wind out of him. The man drew his sword from his back,
and pulled Chris' hair up, and placed the blade across Chris'
neck.
"Speak slowly, and don't swallow." Said the man. The
man was around Chris' age a little bit older with deep blue eyes,
buzzed head, muscular body, and incredibly fast.
"Get the hell off me." Chris yelled.
"Derek get off him now!" Leo yelled. Derek looks back at Leo, nods and gets off him. Chris then breaks down into the floor, his cries fill the silent manor. He then gets up, shaking. Leo went to help him up, but Chris slapped his hand away. He then runs to the stairs, and claims them.
"Christopher!" Leo yelled. Chris didn't respond and just ran up the stairs. Leo then turned to Derek, "He is my son, what were you thinking?"
"I am sorry, Sir." Derek replied putting his sword back in its case.
Chris slammed the attic door behind him, and feel to the floor and screamed for Wyatt. Tears feel from his eyes, and his body slowly leaned over and laid on the floor. His entire body shuttered as he cried. "Wyatt." He cried. "Come back, please." He tried to move, to get to the book, but he was too weak he couldn't.
"I should have stopped it, why did I do that?" He cried, "Why?" He screamed at the top of his lungs. "WHY!" The thought of Wyatt's death filled his mind, then he thought of Bianca's betrayal. She used him. Chris then thought of it, why didn't he think of it sooner. He wiped his face dry and then he moved to the chest where all the witch stuff was kept. He pulled out five candles and a lighter. On the rug in the attic he placed the candles around and lit them.
"Please let me conjure Wyatt." He said, "Please let me see him." He said. He then moved to the book and flipped to the page of the spell he found. "To Summon A Spirit."
He took a deep breath. "Hear these words, Hear my cries, spirit from the other side come to me I summon thee, Cross now the great divide." He looked up, and waited. Nothing happened.
"No! Please!" He moaned as more tears feel from his eyes. "Hear these words, Hear my cries, spirit from the other side come to me I summon thee, Cross now the great divide." He looked again, and nothing happened within the circle of candles, the flames didn't even flicker. He then feel to the floor on his knees and cried. He had never felt so abandoned in his life. Everyone he cared out, was now against him or gone.
"Help me." He cried as he brought his knees up to his face and cried.
Little did Chris notice that behind him, magic began to happen, but this magic wasn't the usual. In this process not only did someone appear but the magic in the world grew and Leo felt.
Leo felt a surge of
power go through him, was he right what he was feeling, this couldn't
be right. She's dead. "Oh my god." Leo said looking.
"What
is it?" Derek said.
She stood in the attic, looking around to how it was she got there. But then quickly a body cradled on the ground, crying. She gasped, and she hoped she was wrong. She walked out of the circle of Candles and materialized from a ghost and into Piper Halliwell. Chris heard the floor creek behind him, he thought he closed the door.
"GO AWAY!" He screamed, but as he turned, he saw his mother standing before him in jeans a blue shirt. The clothes she wore before she died.
"Christopher." Piper said.
"M-Mom?" Chris stuttered. Piper then collapsed to the ground and hugged her son. Chris instantly hugged her back, never to let go again. Piper held him so tightly he felt his air being cut off, but he didn't care; his mother had returned.
000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000
The attic door flew open and Leo was standing there with Derek behind him. Leo looked at the two bodies kneeling next to the podium, was his wife and his son.
"Piper." Leo said. Piper looked up and saw her husband.
"A Charmed One." Derek said, feeling not worthy.
"How?" Leo asked, walking in.
"I'll be right back sweetie, stay here." Piper said letting go. Chris then let go, and sat on the floor.
Piper then embraced her husband and kissed him. "I can't explain, but please I came for Chris. But I am here for a while, we need to discuss some matters later."
"Oh okay." Leo said, as Piper let go.
"Just give me and Chris some time." Piper said.
"I will." Leo then kissed his wife one more time and then left the attic leaving Chris and Piper alone.
Back at the Church, the League of Fallen Angels stood in the Church triumphed in their achievement. Bianca however was sitting next to Wyatt's limp body.
"We have finally rid the world of the Halliwell Power, it is now open ground for us." Nora screamed through out the church. The Angels laughed there hackling laugh and rejoiced to there victory.
"None of this," Nora began, "Wouldn't have been possible without Bianca, our beloved Phoenix." Bianca then looked up, as a tear feel from her cheek. "My dear you are responsible for the downfall of all good magic, a true achievement."
"You said you wouldn't hurt him." Bianca said.
"My poor dear, what did you expect." Nora replied.
"You said you were going to kidnap Wyatt, but not kill them, nor take Chris' powers."
Nora laughed, "Well I lied I am sorry."
Bianca stood up, "You bitch!" Before Bianca could conjure fire to her hands, she was paralyzed. Nora's arm had shot up, and holding Bianca in a paralyzing grip.
"Well, well, the phoenix has some back bone." Nora replied, "She is no longer use to us, be rid of her. I think my army is hungry." Nora then clapped and expanded the hole in the ceiling and then flew through it. Bianca was grabbed by two Fallen Angels and they flew through the roof. Bianca screamed as she was lifted and the nails of the Angels dug into her shoulders.
The Angels flew high over the grounds and they could see the army standing in the white haze.
"My beautiful army." Nora said, "You helped create this." She sneered at Bianca.
"How did I do that?" Bianca replied. Nora smirked. She then yelled over the masses.
"Loyal Warriors, I am Nora Leader of the Fallen Angels, and Queen of the Underworld, and Heaven. You will soon feed on the planet of Earth, and rule the rightful place that was taken from us." Bianca heard a great roar and growl from below. "Now I want to rest and relax before the great battle that will take place." She yelled, She then turned to Bianca.
"It was a pleasure." Nora smiled. "DROP HER!" Bianca felt the angels grip release her and she feel into the pit of hundreds of thousands of bodies below her.
Piper walks back over to Chris. Chris is still crying with silent tears running down his face, he sniffled.
"How are you here?" Chris asks her.
"I am here cause they wanted me here." Piper replied, looking up.
"They? You mean the elders?"
"That's right."
"Nora, said they all died."
"Not all of them, Many anticipated her attack, and some fled Heaven."
"Right." Chris said, he then put his head down into his knees and cried once more.
"Sweetie." Piper replied as she knelt down to hug him. "What is wrong?"
Chris then lifted his head, and looked at his mother. "You don't know?"
"Know what? Where's
Wyatt?"
Chris then broke down once more, he didn't want her
to say that name, of all names, she had to say that one. "He's
dead. They killed him." Piper went numb.
"What!"
"Nora, she killed him."
"I didn't see his spirit."
"What?"
"Wyatt, when someone dies, you see there spirit raise into Heaven, Phoebe and I ascended there when we died, and then we joined Paige when she died. But we never saw Wyatt's."
"What?" Chris tried to get up, but then he felt his rib cage throb. All the adrenaline from the attack and Leo and his mother, didn't fix the fact that he was beaten up pretty badly in the church. Chris winced, when he tried to breathe.
"What's wrong?" Piper asked.
"My side." He said having short shallow breaths. He lifted his shirt and looked at it, Piper gasped. The entire side of his chest and rib cage was black and blue.
"Chris we need to get Leo to heal you."
"No!" Chris snapped, "Don't you dare."
"Look, I know what
happened, but not now okay."
"I said no."
Piper sighed, "Fine, then let me do it." She then placed her hand over Chris' wound and began to heal it.
"What the hell?" Chris said.
Nora and the other Fallen Angels returned to the Church. They all gathered around Wyatt.
"Now it is time for the Dark Lord to raise." Nora smiled. She and the other Fallen Angels howled into the night.
