Okay I'm back I hope everyone is enjoying the story so far. In this chapter everyone will find out who Ryan is, and what is going on at the manor. This I believe is going to be a short chapter because Chris is going to be finishing up in his dream. Of course being the family that they are everyone is going to be trying to figure out what's wrong with Chris. Just let everyone know I have this story posted on also. I'm not sure how down and dirty I can get with this story so I'm going to try to keep it clean.
To Ashlee, Hailey, and Kaytie- Thank you so much I enjoy writing this story. I understand how it can be when you get hooked on a story and the person doesn't update until 3 years later so that's why I update everyday.
Thoughts are in Italic flashbacks in Bold
So now on with the show. ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Back at the manor
By now Leo, and the Charmed Ones tried everything to awake Chris, but nothing worked, and Ryan Chris' younger brother joined the vigil. Every person in that room had looks of worry, fear, and concern, well everyone but one Halliwell. Ryan knew what was wrong with his brother, for it was the same thing that happened every night he went to sleep. He remembered the first night he walked in on Chris in this way it scared the hell out of him. It wasn't until three hours later that Chris awoke and told Ryan all that happened to him by the hands of his other older brother Wyatt and his first in command. Ryan looked around at his family the looks on their faces broke his heart. He was torn between revealing Chris' secret and keeping his mouth shut because it wasn't his secret to tell. Maybe he could talk Chris into telling their parents and aunts.
Yea right he will never go for it, I practically had to drag it out of him to tell me. Maybe I should tell them everything right now, but then Chris will be angry with me, and I did promise the day I showed up I wouldn't tell
Flashback
"Hey Ryan can I talk to you for a minute." "Sure whats up?" Chris stayed quite for a while to collect his thoughts. Sensing some thing was off with his brother Ryan reached out and took his brothers hand. "Chris what is it, Are you okay?" "Yea I'm fine its just that I wanted to give you a heads up to watch what you say around mom, dad, and the aunts." Giving Chris a skeptical looks "Why would I need to watch what I say around them?" Sighing Chris stood up and walked to the attic window "Because there are a lot of things that they are in the dark about." Getting curious he walked over to where his brother was "Things like what Chris?" Knowing that Ryan wouldn't let it go he gave one last sigh and turned to face his little brother "Well for one thing they don't know about Prue, Penelope, Jason or any of the others, Or the fact that Leo is on Wyatt's side. And they definitely don't know about Wyatt and Knossos." Chris said the last part so softly that Ryan had to strain to hear him and even then he couldn't even hear it that well. "You didn't tell them why not they deserve to know that their eldest son is a sick twisted perverted bastard that got off watching you tortured." Chris ran his hands through his long black hair "You see that's what I'm talking about you have to watch your temper when his name is mentioned, or when you see Leo." "How can you ask that after what he did to us what he did to you Chris?" "Because that's not the Leo from the future, he's Leo from now he has no idea what he does in the future, besides I think he may actually change." "Yea right and I'm king TuT." Chris just gave his brother a look "Okay I'm sorry I will try to be polite around that piece of shit." "RYAN!!!" Chris bellowed out. "What I said when he's around other than that I don't have to be." With an exasperated sigh Chris ruffled his little brothers hair. "Come on I'll make us some lunch."
Back at the manor
Ryan came out of his day dreaming at his mother and father arguing. After a couple of months of tension between him and Leo he was finally calling him dad. "Piper there is nothing we can do we exhausted every theory to wake Chris." "Well then we think of more and try them out." At hearing this Ryan sighed and shook his heard stubborn all the way around. "Look I know you feel helpless believe me I do to I'm... he's my son and I can't help him, but I know I just have to wait because he's strong and will come around." Piper looked down at her son once more and sighed she knew Leo was right. Piper reclaimed her seat at Chris' side. Ryan looked at the clock and sighed its been 2hrs since they all became aware of Chris' state.
Thank god he will be coming around soon. Man big brother your going to have a lot of explaining to do when you wake up."
Dream
By now Chris believed that he had just been taken by most of the underworld. All he wanted was to be left alone, he was tired and sore. Once again Chris journeyed to his other world where it was so peaceful. Chris was so engrossed that he never felt the last creature finish and leave. Chris was jolted out of his dream state when he felt warm water touch his cheek. When Chris opened his eyes he was staring at the eyes of his brother. Chris then rolled over cautiously and went into the bathroom. Sighing Wyatt followed him "Chris you have to understand that this is the only way, all you have to do is join me and this nightmare will end." Chris turned and glared at his brother "And what you have to understand oh dear brother of mine is that I will never join, do what you want with me but I will never give in." "Fine be stubborn suffer for all I care you'll give into my wish you'll see." With that Wyatt stormed out of the bathroom. Finally alone Chris stepped into the shower, and let the water hit his abused body. Chris closed his eyes; everything that happened today came back with a vengeance. Tears started to well up in Chris' eyes but he refused to let them fall, he looked up at the ceiling. "Mom if your up there I'm trying to hold on but I need a little help please help me." Chris stayed in the shower until it turned to cold, he got out and put on his sweats and went to lay on the couch he couldn't even stand the sight of the bed. Chris looked at the destruction of what once used to be a beautiful city. Chris looked up at the sky which he did every night. "Mom If you can hear me please give me strength because mine is slowly dwindling. God mom why did you have to go away I need you. Mom?"
At the manor
Piper was sitting right next to Chris, so she was the first to hear him say something. She leaned in to hear him better, on the second time around she heard him. "Mom?" "Chris honey I'm right here open your eyes sweetheart." Chris couldn't tell if it was a dream or reality when he heard his mother's voice so he called for her again "Mom?" "Yes honey its me oh Chris baby please open your eyes." At hearing his mothers word he opened his eyes, Chris looked around at everyone in his room a little confused he asked, "What are you all doing in my room?" "Well I was coming from downstairs from getting a snack and heard you shout so I came in to see if you were all right but you wouldn't wake up, we tried everything," his mother answered him. Paige decided to ask the question everyone wanted to know "Chris what happened?" "Nothing it was just a stupid dream I had no big deal," lied Chris. Leo was about to say something but Chris cut him off "Look guys I'm fine really, its getting late go to bed we can talk more in the morning." Piper was about to protest but Chris fixed her with his famous puppy dog eyes. Sigh Piper relented "Okay I'll see you in the morning sleep tight." She leaned over and kissed Chris on the forehead and did the same with Ryan. Everyone filed out of Chris' room the only people left was Chris and Ryan. They sat in silence until Ryan spoke up "You did it again you know, you had everyone pretty scared." "Shit you didn't tell them did you?" "No but you better come up with something believable." "Okay I can do that, something believable." "Why don't you just tell them the truth?" "I told you no, they don't need to know that, they don't need a bad image of there little boy" "Who gives a fuck about what they think of Wyatt he's not the one suffering you are."
Ha the funny thing is Ryan I was talking about myself not Wyatt.
"Look you gave me your word you wouldn't say anything, now was that a lie." Sighing Ryan relented "No it wasn't I wont say a word." "Say a word about what?"
Both Chris and Ryan turned sharply to the door…
Well that's it for this chapter maybe it was longer than I thought it would be. Who do you think it is standing at the door? Is Chris going to come clean? I don't know we'll have to see tomorrow in chapter 4. Please review I want to know what you all think so far or if you have a special request on what direction you want the story to go into. I figured that maybe you readers want to help me write this story. At the end of each chapter I will have one question on where you want the story to lead so here goes. Today's question Who do you want to be one that overheard Ryan and Chris' conversation? Well that's all for now until next time.
