Chapter 4 The Talk

Piper hugged her son tightly before pulling back, holding his face in her hands. "Chris, I can't believe you're here." Piper smiled happily at the older version of her youngest son.

Chris sighed and smiled a little at his mother. "Uh, yeah things happened and Wyatt and I were sent back." Chris ran a hand through his hair.

Leo spoke up, confused, "But why? And who sent you?"

Wyatt shook his head putting his parent's attention on him. "We can't tell you everything and it's best if we tell you what we can all at once with everyone else. It's a lot to say and take in, and we don't want to repeat it."

Chris nodded. "Yes and we should probably do it soon." Chris stood and popped his back and shoulders.

Piper shook her head and stood, putting her hands on Chris's shoulders. "You should rest first. You were really bad when you showed up."

Wyatt stood as well and rolled his shoulders. "We are fine. If we weren't healed, we wouldn't have woken up from our healing sleep." Wyatt used air quotations around 'healing sleep.'

Chris snorted in amusement and shook his head when his parents shifted their confused gaze to him. "It's an inside joke, you won't get it."

Leo sighed and stood as well. "Well, if you're both sure you're healed and up for it, we can go down and see how the others are doing in the living room." Noticing their confused looks, Leo elaborated. "When you arrived in the living room the energy used to bring you exploded and destroyed the living room."

Wyatt's eyes widened and nodded. "Ah that's what he meant."

Piper and Leo looked confused, something that they have been feeling ever since their sons arrived.

Leo broke first and looked at his son. "He?"

Chris waved a hand at his father. "Someone came to us in our healing sleep to explain what happened. Don't worry about it."

Leo sighed, starting to remember how much the other Chris loved to keep his secrets.

Piper cleared her throat. "Anyways, let's all head down to the living room and collect the others so you can tell us why you're here."

Wyatt and Chris nodded and grabbed their parents and orbbed downstairs. Chris smirked and Wyatt smiled, glad their powers were back and they could use them again.

Down in the kitchen everyone was relaxing after cleaning up the mess in the living room.

Paige groaned, leaning back against the counter. "I swear the window guys must make a fortune off of this family with how many we break in a month, no in a week!" She threw her hands up in exasperation.

Phoebe smirked at her sister. "The window guys? Think of the furniture stores! We break more furniture than windows in a week!" Phoebe laughed.

Paige laughed and leaned towards her husband and sighed in content when his arms wrapped around her.

Bright blue lights appeared in the kitchen and disappeared, leaving Piper, Leo, Wyatt and Chris.

Phoebe grinned widely and walked over, pulling Chris and Wyatt into a hug. "Well if it isn't my handsome future nephews! Welcome back! Well, that would be correct if it probably wasn't for a very bad reason that your even here."

Chris smirked, he has always liked his Aunt Phoebe, well he liked her much more after she broke up with that dick Coop and he liked her even better after she got back together with Uncle Cole. Chris sighed, realizing how much work they had to do and hoped his Uncle was right and his past self would help them. "Hey Aunt Phoebe! It's good to see you all again," Chris said as he pulled out of Phoebe's hug. He was not much of a hugger.

Wyatt grinned and slapped a hand on Chris's shoulder, squeezing it. "Yeah! It's great to see everyone so…alive."

Piper looked around and sighed. "Alright I think we should all sit down, and Wyatt and Chris here can tell us why they are back in the past and what we can do now."

Chris and Wyatt got a serious look on their faces and nod.

Everyone went back into the dining room and sat down.

Wyatt looked around at all the seated adults then glanced at Chris. Receiving a nod to begin, he twined his fingers together and rested them on the table. "Alright I guess the best place to start is from the beginning. Sometime this year the Charmed ones will encounter a demon and the world of magic will be exposed." Everyone gasped in surprise at this revelation. "I know what you're all thinking, something must have been done to make everyone forget, but you're wrong. No demon was there to turn back time and the Elders could not erase it from the minds of so many mortals. With the expansion of technology it was just too much. Everyone found out too fast. So with magic exposed, people started to notice witches and demons all around them. At first it wasn't too bad but a few months in, a witch was killed by a mortal. With the threat of magic people started to carry guns with them everywhere. When one mortal woman was getting attacked by a demon, a witch happened to be nearby and killed the demon. When the witch asked the terrified mortal if she was alright, the mortal freaked and shot the witch. The witch was dead before she even hit the ground." Everyone gasped and eyes widened. Wyatt nodded at their reactions. He still remembered that year and the shock that came with the events.

Wyatt coughed and continued on. "It was a real shock to everyone. That's when everything went downhill. Mortals were killing anyone magic and witches were being sent to jail for killing demons. It was a mess. Finally concentration camps were formed for anyone magical. Didn't matter your age or even if you were magical. If you were a sympathizer then you were sent there too. Many mortals turned their backs on their magical family members, selling them out to the cops. Husbands against wives, parents against children, brothers against brothers. It was brutal. Eventually everyone magical banned together. It didn't matter if you were a witch, a demon, or a magical creature, we were all the same in the mortals' eyes so we were all we could count on. It was a little hard at the beginning, but there were some key figures that showed it was possible which made it easier for everyone else to fall in line. The Halliwell's being one of them."

Paige frowned. "You mean we just accepted working with demons? Us?"

Chris looked at Paige and scowled at her. She was never one of his favorite aunts. "That's right, Paige. There were some circumstances surrounding the key figures which we can't tell less we change the future."

Phoebe spoke up. "But if we are already changing the future then we will never end up having to make an alliance with these demons, so can't you just tell us?"

Chris smirked at Phoebe. "Nice try, Phoebe, but this alliance will happen at one point whether the war happens or not."

Phoebe frowned at Chris. "Oh? And why is that? No one in this family would ever trust a demon normally."

Wyatt spoke up, interrupting them. "Because to end this without the mortals finding out, this time we will need their help a lot earlier than they came in last time. So no matter what we will be contacting these demons to help us. You need not concern yourselves with them, Chris and I will be the ones contacting them and being the go-between. They won't want to work with you anymore than you want to work with them."

Paige snorted at them. "I don't want to work with any demons."

Piper gave her sister a look. "If it prevents war I will work with whomever I need to. It's for our children's future so grow up Paige, if you don't want your kids and yourselves to be killed."

Paige glared and crossed her arms but had a slightly stricken look on her face about her children's death.

Wyatt nodded at his mother's declaration. "Yes, the war gets very bad. With Mortals on one side and Magicals on the other. Everyone was dying every day in very gruesome ways." Wyatt got a dark look on his face. "Our family was picked off one by one. Chris and I tried to keep everyone alive and moving till it was just us and our cousin." Wyatt winced and dropped his head to hide his tears.

Chris stiffened and looked away, remembering Ben's death.

Phoebe licked her lips, her mouth suddenly dry. "We-We all die?"

Wyatt nodded at Phoebe and looked back up at her with a dark look in his eyes. "Yes, and me and Chris would be too if it wasn't for our cousin pushing us out of the way. The Angel of Destiny came down after that and gave us the chance to go back and change the world, to stop all the unnecessary deaths. It wasn't till we got here and someone visited us in our healing sleep that we found out why." Wyatt stopped because his mouth was having a hard time forming the words.

Leo spoke up, "Why?"

Chris took over for Wyatt, placing his hand on Wyatt's shoulder. "Because the mortals decided the war was taking too long and ended up destroying what was left of the world in one final attack, with every bomb they had coming down upon the earth all at once."

Everyone sat there in silence with their eyes wide.

Wyatt swallowed and nodded at them all. "Yes. That was why the magic back lashed and destroyed the living room. It was disrupted with the death of the originator. Now we are here for good and we are going to fix what happened or…" Here Wyatt trailed off.

Piper spoke up, afraid of what he was going to say. "Or?"

Chris looked at his mother, eyes dead serious. "Or we are going to die trying."

A/N: Ok that's a wrap for this chapter. It was a little hard because not much was happening in this chapter except the information revealing. Sorry about how long it took me to get this out. It was just difficult to write and I have school and tons of RL issue that keep popping up. I will try and get Cole and the rest of his family in soon. Also I think you can tell I don't have much love for Paige sorry. There won't be any Paige bashing but she always got on my nerves, Phoebe too when she dumped Cole. I'm a Cole Lover! LOL Thanks!
