Chris caught up with Patience later on that day at the Bay Mirror; she usually hung outside the place when she was upset. Patience stayed there while contemplating whether or not she should bother her Aunt at work or if she should let it go. This time however Phoebe wasn't at work, the last time she saw her was at the manor as far as she knew she probably went back to go see Coop. She had lost track of time it was only an hour later that Chris actually showed up to come and talk to her.

"What the hell Patience, you can't just blow up Wyatt like that." He said to her.

Patience began to walk away as she said,

"What's the big deal white lighters don't blow up remember."

"Keep your voice down, we don't want anyone find out about us."

Patience looked at him annoyed, like their secret getting out was the worst of their problems. They still had to wait until 12 tonight to get Zion from Chris. Then she stopped for a second,

"What?" Chris asked.

'Why can't we just take Zion from the older Chris now; it's still inside him.'

"Patience!" Chris called again.

Patience looked up at her brother and said,

"Chris can I tell you something in confidence?"

"Sure."

"You have to promise not to say anything to anybody else, not Phoebe or Paige, not Piper or Leo and definitely not Wyatt got it?" She said.

Chris looked at her confused a little and then he held up his pinkie finger. Patience smiled at him and locked her pinkie finger around his and then looked around, there was people everywhere walking the streets making it perfect because Chris couldn't call for anyone out loud when she told him.

"The plan that I had before, it wasn't mine. It was Xavier's."

"What?" Chris shouted.

The people standing around looked in their direction and Patience looked away like she didn't hear a thing. Chris grabbed her by the arm and pulled her down the street while whispering to her,

"What are you thinking Patience?"

"I was thinking that I needed to trust my husband. Chris the Halliwell family is so used to being betrayed by the ones that they love that with each generation when someone so much as pretends to be working for the other side we lose all faith. I know, I did too but the fact of the matter is whenever Xavier was given the chance to kill me or the rest of the family for that matter he never did. Okay so I just need you to trust me, if you can't trust him then just trust me. I know what I'm doing."

"It's too dangerous Patience; the guy is trying to kill me."

"Then let me ask you this, Xavier has been in our house for years, young or old Xavier knows the sisters by now. He's stronger than the sisters right now why doesn't he just kill you, huh? He's got the power and he's had all the opportunities in the world to kill you why hasn't he done it yet?" Patience said.

Chris still didn't like it but his sister was positive that her husband was still on their side. It might not be such a bad idea to put his trust in her. He exhaled heavily and asked her what they needed to do. Patience knew she needed to know why she had to take it from baby Chris instead of from her Chris. Her and Chris walked into an ally and made sure no one was watching before they orbed out and down into the underworld to find Xavier.

Piper sat down,

"Oh my God, Phoebe we can't have a demon in the family, I just doesn't work out."

"Well don't you think I know that Piper? I mean after everything that Cole and the seer put me through I completely agree with you but I can't do anything about it she's pregnant Piper." Phoebe said.

Piper exhaled sharply and put her hand on her head.

"Yeah and we're fresh out of seer's to steal demonic fetus'." Paige said.

Phoebe was rubbing Pipers back but looked up at Paige appalled at her comment.

"Sorry." She said.

Phoebe stood up and put her hands in her pockets and said,

"Look Piper, uh you can't tell Patience about any of this."

"What why not?"

"Well because she doesn't even know she's pregnant we don't know how she'll react plus she already has to deal with vanquishing her husband we don't want to put more on her plate than she already has."

Phoebe was right, although Patience was no longer considering having to kill her husband she was already under pressure. She didn't need any more as far as they were concerned. Phoebe left the house and told Paige to come get her when they needed her but she needed to go back home to Coop so that they could salvage what was left of their honeymoon. Paige told Piper she was going off to see Billie just to check up on her and see if she needed anything. She secretly wanted to know if she may have been attacked by Xavier or not but she didn't want to put that in her big sister's head. Wyatt and Leo showed up after a while back in the attic where Piper started mixing together a potion.

"Mom what are you doing?" Wyatt asked.

"Potion, for your demonic brother-in-law." Piper said.

She was focused at the moment mixing things together. She was adding double dosages for the potion and she had already made a bottle of binding potion. She was going to bind the baby's powers even if it meant having to give up Patience's powers. She normally wouldn't dream of doing such a thing but she had to protect her family. Whatever was going to come next she was sure that it was going to be dangerous. Wyatt walked over and said,

"Is this a binding potion? Are you planning on binding someone's powers?"

"Um, yes and no. It's only a last resort you should take it back to the future with you."

Leo looked at her confused then turned to Wyatt.

"Can I ask you a question Wyatt?" Piper said

"I think you just did."

Piper looked at him seriously Wyatt smiled and told her to ask away. Piper was filling the vials up with the potion she just made as she said,

"Does Patience have a problem with me in the future?"

"I thought you never liked getting information about the future." Wyatt said.

She rolled her eyes when she said,

"Oh come on, it's not like it'll change anything besides I've been getting some vibe from her that we don't have the closest relationship in the future and I just need to know what it is."

Wyatt looked at Leo and Leo shrugged; he was listening but he definitely wasn't going to go against what Piper wanted especially when she was handling potions. Wyatt sighed and looked to his mother and said,

"Well let's just say she hates you."

"What?" Piper said with a nervous laugh

"Let me rephrase that, she doesn't so much as hate you as she hates how you treat her."

"How do I treat her?"

"She just thinks that you think of me and Chris as the special children because we have the white lighter gene. She feels like she's not strong enough and you see her as the weaker one of us."

"That's ridiculous." Piper said in a nervous laugh.

Like she would ever act so cold hearted towards her daughter, she dreamt about the days that she would get to know her littler girl ever since she saw her in the future. There was no way that she would treat her like the outcast if anything she would treat her like a princess.

"Mom you have your way of being a little more abrasive towards Patience than us. We all try to keep her out of demonic affairs whenever we get attacked. She's always loved being a witch and she hates trying to have a normal life."

The idea came into her head for a moment that she was becoming Grams. Phoebe rebelled against Grams all the time too and it was harder on Phoebe because she never really got to know her mother. The more Grams tried to control Phoebe the worse Phoebe got. Maybe that was the same with her and Patience, the more she tried to control whether her daughter had a normal life or not the more she dived into the magical world. She felt like an idiot but even still she couldn't get rid of the potion. She was more interested in keeping her entire family safe including her daughter than she was worried about pushing her away.

"I can't believe I'm becoming Grams." She said.

"You're not Grams Piper at least not now and since you have this information maybe you'll be able to fix your relationship with her." Leo said.

"Well what about you does she hate Leo?" Piper said

"No actually her, Dad and Chris are really close."

Piper scoffed and looked at Leo irritated; Leo, with his hands in his pockets, looked away and walked over to the window.

~XxX~

Down in the underworld in Xavier's lair, Chris and Patience waited for their Xavier to show up. The younger version of Xavier was still in the cave like place waiting for his future self as well. Patience looked at him and walked over to his side and said,

"Are you sure you don't know what the plan is about?"

"All I know is what he told me honey." He said.

"I'm not your honey."

"Not yet." He smiled at the end of the statement.

"Ew." Chris said disgusted as he looked away.

Patience checked the area for talismans by blowing up a rock in the lair. It pissed off the past Xavier but it made Patience smile and a little more confident in her husband somehow. It wasn't too long after she blew up the lair that her husband shimmered in the room. Xavier saw Chris and he wasn't too surprised by that fact that he was there. He probably would've been shocked to death if it was Wyatt that she brought with her but bringing Chris was a little more like her. Xavier walked over to them after handing his younger self something in the bag.

"What's that you've got?" Chris asked suspiciously.

"I'll tell you later, what are you doing here did you get the spell?"

"Yes, but why do we have to take it from baby Chris, why can't we take it from our Chris?" Patience asked stepping up closer to him.

He slipped his hand on her cheek and smiled at her. He thought to himself how much he loved her and how beautiful she was. She could see sadness in her husband's eyes and it confused her. He smiled at her a little bigger and then kissed her softly. Chris looked away not wanting to pay attention because it was his sister and because he didn't want to believe his eyes. The younger Xavier turned his head and chuckled at Chris' reaction while placing ingredients in the huge metal bowl.

"You truly are beautiful." He said.

Patience laughed a little at the comment and then Xavier waved his hand over her face until she fell asleep in his arms. Chris turned back around to grab her.

"What did you do to her?" he said as he tried to take his little sister away from him.

"I just put her to sleep it was a power I stole not too long ago. That's not important what is important is that you are prepared to take down Nero and to comfort Patience after everything is done."

"What are you talking about?" He asked.

Xavier at this point had laid Patience done on the stone bed he had her on when she was first there.

"I'm talking about a vision an oracle gave me. Two visions to be exact: one where your sister and I take over the underworld, with her as my dark queen, and the other one of her vanquishing me with her brothers."

"Which one are you trying to make come true?" Chris said upset.

"Despite what you may think of me I'm doing this all for her, I do love your sister nothing can change that. She's carrying my child right now, she doesn't know it but I do. I much prefer a place where my wife is happy with her family then hidden in darkness and miserable. "

The potion his younger half was making was finished and he was filling up the vials for Chris.

"When you get Zion out of you and return to the future we have to go find Nero and make him think I did what was asked. Patience needs to have Zion inside of her, it should be enough to blow up Nero or at least knock him off guard. I'll make sure that I hold Nero done long enough for you to throw the potion and say the spell."

"What about you?" Chris asked still suspicious.

"Nero and I share the same blood much like the rest of the hybrids. I'll be holding him down when you throw the potion and when you say the spell which means I'll be vanquished along with Nero."

The words stung him in a way. He didn't like that he had to die and leave Patience but it was about keeping her alive and happy and he'd done nothing but made her relationship with Wyatt and her mother worse. This was his chance to fix things and to make sure no other demon tried to harm her family. Chris looked down at the potion that Xavier gave him and then too his sister. Xavier told him to take Patience away and be prepared for the battle to come. Before Chris orbed out with Patience, Xavier placed his hand on her stomach and then kissed pt and whispered something to the young thing growing inside her.

'Daddy loves you and your mommy.'
