The lost of Bianca kept the Halliwells and Jessie up all night. They
couldn't go to sleep as the morning light lit through the attic windows.
Hours have passed since Chris orbed away and yet he hasn't returned.
"Where could he have gone" Piper asked worried as their young white lighter hasn't returned since the incident.
"Don't worry Piper we'll find him." Phoebe said as she focused on the scrying crystal letting it dangle and circle the map. "This isn't working, either he knows how to block us or he's somewhere we can't locate him."
Paige and Jessie came into the attic carrying four mugs of tea. "Here." Paige offered to her sisters after which she took a seat next to Jessie on the sofa.
"I found this lying on the ground downstairs." Jessie said holding out the athame that took Bianca's life. After Leo had pulled it out of Bianca, they had forgotten all about it.
"Why didn't he call us?" Piper said covering her mouth as she paced back and forth.
Phoebe took the athame from Jessie and instantly she was pulled into a premonition. The scene of last night's attack flashed through her head.
"Because he couldn't..." Phoebe stated as she came out of her vision.
"What?" Piper asked "Phoebe what are you talking about?" Piper asked in a tired voice.
"He was out cold before he could. Piper they were ambushed by half a dozen demons last night. After Chris was out, Bianca had to fend them off. The fear in her face Piper..." Phoebe said as she trailed off the last sentence.
Just as Phoebe finished telling them of last night's event, Leo orbed in. He had a look of disappointment on his face as he looked around the room.
"Did you find Chris?" Jessie asked with hope.
"No, the Elders can't even sense him." Leo stated sadly.
"Then there's only one place he could be." Jessie said
"Jessie?" Phoebe asked as she stopped scrying.
"He went after the demon." Jessie started. "Think about it, if someone you loved were killed by demons, who would you go after, where would you go." Jessie asked
"You don't think he would go after this demon by himself do you?" Piper asked worried
"Piper they murdered the love of his life." Jessie replied
"Why didn't you say anything earlier." Paige asked confused
"Phoebe said a group a demons attacked, it sounds like the same group that have been attacking us for the past two days." Jessie explained.
"I should have seen this coming!" Phoebe cursed at herself.
"Phoebe, this isn't your fault, you couldn't have known." Paige assured her sister.
"No Paige, I had the premonition remember...the third vision was Chris crying!" Phoebe stated beating herself up.
"Phoebe, none of us could have known." Piper said to comfort her.
"Phoebe? What was the fourth vision you saw?" Jessie asked.
"Chris was in pain...." Phoebe trailed off covering her mouth with her hand.
"Phoebe? Paige? Go to the kitchen and stock up on our most powerful potions. Jessie I want you to go help them too." Piper ordered softly as they got up and left the attic. Once the others were gone Piper turned to Leo.
"Where were you last night?" Piper asked with anger in her voice
"What do you mean?" Leo asked confused
"What took you so long to answer our call?" Piper continued as her anger increased.
"Piper..."Leo began but couldn't find the answer.
"You knew Chris needed you didn't you?" Piper started, "You knew and you didn't want to come because you hate Chris." Piper yelled.
"Piper, I had no clue." Leo pleaded, "And I don't hate him, I just don't trust him."
"NO! Leo, you didn't feel his pain, I did. He needed you to help him and you couldn't even do that. You couldn't put your issues aside and help him out for once." Piper yelled in Chris defense
"What do you mean you felt Chris's pain?" Leo asked confused.
"I don't know how to explain it, it just happened." Piper yelled as she stormed out of the attic leaving Leo staring at the ground.
In the kitchen, the girls bottled up the most powerful potions they had as Piper walked in obviously angry.
"What's the plan Piper?" Phoebe asked from the counter.
"We go down to the Underworld and find him." Piper stated back.
"But there's a problem with that, the Underworld is massive and we can't sense him." Phoebe stated.
"Leo can..." Piper said turning away from her sisters as she walked back out of the kitchen.
Piper returned to the attic and to her surprise, Leo was still there. He was standing by the big window gazing out at the first light of morning. She walked over and stood beside him looking out the window as well.
"Look, Leo, I'm sorry for yelling at you like that. It's just...I'm really worried about Chris. I don't like the idea of him being out there by himself in the state of mind that he is in." Piper apologized. "For the past three days, my view of Chris has changed a lot and I'm beginning to like the idea of him being around." Piper continued. "I just want him back safely."
"Me too." Leo said softly. "But you're right, if I knew Chris needed me, I probably wouldn't have come." Leo admitted never looking at Piper.
Piper was furious with the words that left Leo's mouth. But she held her temper for she needed Leo to help them find Chris, she couldn't run Leo off for Chris's sake.
"Make up for your mistakes Leo," Piper started, "Help us find Chris."
