"Chris Perry!" Patty suddenly turned to face the new neoteric white lighter from the future.

Chris stepped forward with an open face. "Yes." He said firmly.

"Tell them everything." Patty simply said.

"Sorry. I can't." Chris replied.

"They deserve to know." Patty came back."

"I can't risk the future." Chris firmly stated as he wrapped his arms around his chest.

"The future you are right now trying to change." Patty raised her eyebrows.

A deep flush came to Chris's checks. I'm doing what I have to do to save Wyatt."

Piper and Phoebe stare even harder at Chris than before this little interaction between their mother and their new young white lighter from the future.

"They have a right to know." Patty firmly said.

Chris shook his head.

"Don't be afraid Christopher. They will understand." Patty gently said.

"Tell us what happens to Wyatt, Chris." Piper softly but firmly said as she stepped to Chris's side. "Tell me, so I can protect my son."

Chris hung his head. He took a long and shaky breath. He looked up and straight into Piper's eyes. "Wyatt is the ruler of all evil."

Phoebe rushed over to stand next to Piper and put a shaky hand on Piper's rigid back.

"H-h-h-h-how could that even happen? Wyatt is ½ witch and ½ white lighter. Wyatt is good." Piper cried out. The moment Chris said the words, she believed him, her heart and soul died in her chest.

"Wyatt was turned around this time." Chris replied. "I came back here to find the demon who did it, I came back to stop it from happing."

"Why didn't you just tell us this from the start?" Phoebe shouted.

"So, you knew Paige died! We could have saved her." Piper sad mono tonelessly.

Chris shook his head. "Paige is … was alive in the future."

"What the hell happened than?" Piper suddenly shouted.

"I – I don't know." Chris shook his head once more.

"You killed Paige." Glenn rushed up and slugged Chris's right side.

Chris slumped to the floor in the tense and shocked silence.

"Leave Chris alone." Piper angry turned on Glenn. "How dare you hit him."

Piper knelt down a d placed a hand on Chris's head. "Are you all right, Chris?"

Chris blinked the tears from his eyes. "Yea, I am fine m --- Piper."

Nobody noticed the slip of tongue of Chris; expect Patty.

Patty looked up and sighed. "Blessed be." The lights around her started to elope her.

"NO!" Piper and Phoebe cried out together.

But it was too late; Patty disappeared from sight.
