Title:Dirty Little Secret
Rating T: Language
Disclaimer:I do not own Charmed or any of its characters. I do however own Prue, Mel, Penny and Allen.
Summary: The Charmed ones want to know what's up with Chris. So they cast a spell. And what should happen? Exactly the opposite of what they wanted. Takes place after The Courtship of Wyatt's Father, but the girls don't know who Chris is.
Author's note: This is similar to the flashback in The Truth can be Revealed inMore than one way, by Kitty-Witty-Kate. Sorry, it was unintentional.
Also, this chapter is pathetically short. But I don't like chapters to be overly long, which is what would have happened if I included this in chapter two or four.
Reviews:
Briankrause-I guess its sorta related to the elements. I originally made a map to help me keep track of everyone's powers, and the twins have power over fire and something else(I lost the map), but its never mentioned in either story. Piper might be right about them being his children. Then again, maybe not.
Thanks everyone who reviewed.
Previously, on Charmed:
"He was 14. We were nine, and they were to young to remember," Prue indicated to Allen and Penny. "But it affected Chris the most."
Part three: Not his Fault/the Flashback
----------------
Mel and Prue began the story, switching off when the other got to emotional. They left all names out other than there own, and Chris, much to the disappointment of the Charmed ones, who had hoped they would find out something about Chris' past.
----------------
"Chris, sweetie, bring this into the Conservatory," Piper Halliwell told her youngest son, handing him a large pitcher of lemonade.
The family, part of the family, seeing as Paige and Phoebe were at work and Uncle Coop, and Uncle Kyle were at work, had gathered for a little indoors picnic.
"Kay, mom," Chris replied, taking the glass into the sun room to his cousins.
"Hey, mom?" Chris called.
"Yeah?"
"Where's Wyatt?"
"I don't know. WYATT! Lunch is ready," she called out.
"Not now mom," Wyatt said, orbing in.
"Wyatt," Piper said.
"Great," Chris said sarcastically as Wyatt and Piper got into what was probably their 10th argument that week.
Prue rolled her eyes and scooped a mound of potato salad on her plate.
After about a minute of thankfully incoherent shouting from the kitchen, there was a gasp.
Not a gasp of anger that usually came after Wyatt said something inappropriate.
But a gasp of pain.
Surprise.
"Mom," Chris exclaimed, rushing into the kitchen.
There, he found Wyatt pulling Excalibur out of there mother.
"Wyatt?" Chris asked, rushing to his mother's side.
"Finally, the stupid little bitch shuts up," Wyatt grinned menacingly.
Chris shouted incoherently, running towards him.
"Un un ah," Wyatt said, orbing behind his brother. But his orbs were no longer their normal white and blue. They were black.
"Wyatt?" Chris asked again.
"You will never learn Christopher." Wyatt threw Excalibur which embedded itself in a pure white shield.
"Next time, Christopher," Wyatt laughed, pulling the sword from the shield and orbing away.
"Dad. DAD!" Chris called, sitting by his mother.
"Chris," Piper choked.
"Mom," Chris said, tears running down his face.
"I love you," she coughed.
"No. your not going to die. Dad will be here and he can heal you."
Piper smiled as Chris tried to reassure her.
But they both knew it was a lie.
"DAD!" Chris called again, more urgently.
As he put his hands on the wound, to slow the bleeding, his hands began to glow.
Prue, meanwhile, was keeping her sister and cousins in the conservatory, having been the only one to see what was happening. Mostly she was just holding her sister back, seeing as Allen was too you to crawl, let alone walk, and Penny was much easier to control at this point.
"Chris, what do you think your doing," Leo shouted, pushing Chris out of the way.
"Dad.." but Leo wasn't listening. He was trying to heal Piper but had no luck. She was gone.
"THIS IS YOUR FAULT!" Leo shouted at his youngest son, shoving him into a wall.
"It was..."
"SHUT UP! Don't even think about blaming your brother. He didn't do anything wrong." Leo was about to hit Chris again but...
"BACK OFF!" Penny shouted, orbing between the two of them. So much for being easier to control.
"GET OUT OF MY WAY!" Leo shouted, smacking her across the face.
Everyone gasped.
"Dad! Kyle! Aunt Paige!" Prue called quietly.
"You..." Chris started. Then he punched him straight in the nose. "Get out."
He had always been protective of his family. Whether it be his brother, or his cousins. No one laid a hand on any of them without paying for it.
------------
"Ever since Chris has believed his mother's death was his fault. No matter what anyone else said, he still believes it."
"But, how could he have known?" Phoebe asked, tears falling down her cheeks, as well as her sisters'. "How could he have foreseen something like that?"
"Because that's one of his powers," Mel said, as Chris orbed in. His hair and shirt were wet, as it had started to rain while he was gone.
"You tell them?" Chris asked.
"Yes," Mel said, but sent a telepathic message assuring him that his secret was safe.
