AN. Hi everyone, thanks for reviewing! A new chapter is up, I hope you enjoy. I apologize for any mistakes and my bad English.
I would like to warn you that my next update may take some time, my grandmother passed away this morning, and as you maybe understand, my head is somewhere else right now.
Chapter 9
The house was silent and all the lights were out, clear signs that the whole family was in bed, as to be expected since it was late in the evening. Chris had been the last to go to bed, and he was now asleep, as was everyone else in the
house. But Chris wasn't having a peaceful night, he was having nightmares. He was dreaming about demon attacks and people screaming for help. He wished he could just wake up but the dream wasn't listening. "Chris" it was just a
faint whisper, but to Chris it was loud and clear as if it had been yelled right in his ear. It was a cry for help and Chris bolted awake, happy to be awake but confused as to why. Had this cry for help been in his dream, or had it happened
for real? He faintly recognized the voice, but in his half asleep state he couldn't think clear and therefore couldn't remember. "Chris help" Chris looked wildly around him, trying to find the source of the voice, he was awake now, so there
was no question about it, he hadn't dreamed hearing his name. Chris became more awake now, getting his thoughts in order, a light bulb went on in his brains, he knew that voice! "Wyatt!" Chris whispered, getting out of bed quickly and
changing his clothes as quickly as possible. Wyatt was in danger, and had asked for his help as last resource, of that Chris was sure. As soon as Chris was ready he orbed to the danger, to Wyatt, he orbed back to his old house, the
manor.
The sight that met Chris was frightening, he was met with a couple of demons, obviously the left over's of a clan. The once somewhat organized attic was a mess, obvious signs of a fight, scorch marks, potion residue where found
everywhere. But the most frightening sight of it all was a unconscious Wyatt with blood all around him, and a very tired Prue losing the battle, several injuries visible. Chris shook his shock off, this was not the time to look at his
surroundings. Chris used his telekinesis to throw the remaining six demons against the wall, throwing several knives with precision, and again using his telekinesis to throw some of the residue of the potions to the demons, in mere
minutes all demons were vanquished. Prue looked absolutely shocked to see her long lost cousin standing there, fighting of the demons and saving her life with ease, she fell to the ground, tears rolling from her eyes now that the fight
was over and he mind was truly able to see how near she was to death. Chris quickly ran to Wyatt, thinking he was in the most immediate danger for his life, Chris had never been able to heal as he wasn't trained, he and Bianca had
however been signed an white lighter, Lydia, after the elders noticed Chris was using his magic and Bianca was fighting for their side. "Lydia! Please come quick!" Chris yelled, hoping Lydia wasn't helping anybody else right now, for her
really needed her, he could feel a pulse, but it was a faint one and if he wasn't healed quickly Wyatt wouldn't make it.
Blue orbs emerged in the attic, Chris began speaking before Lydia had even been fully materialized. "Quickly, Wyatt needs healing, and if you're done Prue could use some healing too". Lydia ran to his side, asking no questions and began
healing immediately. The healing process was slow, showing them really how near Wyatt had been to death, but the golden glow was working, and slowly Wyatt came back to the conscious again. As soon as Wyatt was fully healed Lydia
walked over to Prue, who was still in shock. Lydia healed all her wounds quickly, choosing to speak after her job was done. "What the heck happened here?" She said in a demanding voice, clearly expecting a full answer.
Chris shrugged, he really didn't know what had happened before he had arrived, only seeing the end of the battle. "I don't really know, all I know is that I was woken up by Wyatt, hearing him calling my name, obviously he was in danger
and in desperate need of help. I decided I should take a look, and well when I orbed in I saw Wyatt out cold and Prue was losing her battle. So I stepped in, vanquishing the last demons and calling you for help." Chris tried to explain the
best he could, but with his little knowledge wasn't enough, Lydia expected the full story. "Well, are you two going to give me any answers, or were you planning on staring stupidly at Chris and me?" she said, getting tired of being stared
at. She knew the full story of Chris's past, and had been surprised to orb into the Halliwell manor attic, being shocked to see that Chris had helped his family out. "I, uhh.." Prue began, trying to look somewhere else, but her eyes found
Chris fairly quickly again, she just couldn't believe Chris was sitting there, in their attic. "Chris?" she asked, she knew it was Chris, but her shocked mind just had to know for sure. "yeah Prue, that is Chris. I wanted to tell you but well you
came running in searching for demons" Wyatt began rambling, Prue stopped him by holding her hand up "What did you want to tell me?" she said, always the curious one. "That I saw Chris today, well yesterday now" wyatt answered,
Prue gasped and yelled "You didn't tell me earlier because? Are you stupid, why didn't you tell me, stuff like that should be the first thing out of your mouth" her hands were everywhere, trying to prove her point. "I wanted to, but you
were so stressed about the demons, I just thought I had time later to tell you!" Wyatt said, defending himself. "Obviously not, seeing how you almost died today" Lydia said, trying to steer the conversation back to the most pressing
matter, why she had to heal them. She hadn't known about the meeting either, but suspected Bianca already did, and that she would have been informed quite soon. Chris nodded at her, as if knowing her train of thoughts and telling her
he would have told her soon.
"How is it that my charge had to save your asses tonight?" Lydia said, getting impatient. "I saved a friend, jenny, who I had classes with today from a demon clan when we walked to our cars, and then the demon clan was pissed off and
like all demons do when angry they thought of a plan for their revenge. I was pretty pissed off too, I mean, I just began to be friends with Jenny, and I really don't like all the demon interventions, so I thought of a way to hurt them,
vanquish them. So we, Wyatt and I, summoned the clan, but the clan was a little bigger than we had anticipated and was a little more prepared than we had hoped for. Well somehow the demons got passed Wyatt's defense, I suspect
that he was distracted, and he got hit, well you know how badly he ended up. Then I had to fight of all the remaining demons, but I was so tired. And then out of nothing Chris orbed in, like he knew we were in trouble, he killed the
demons easily and called for you" Prue explained, shooting a dirty look to Wyatt when she mentioned him being distracted and a thankful look to Chris at the end. Lydia just nodded, Chris had already explained how he knew about them
being in danger, and Lydia suspected that Wyatt and Chris' bond had something to do with it. "Well I'm happy to see that you are all alive, but I must be going now. Bye Chris, I will be seeing you soon I guess?" Lydia said, making sure
she would get the story from Chris. Chris just nodded, "yeah, I'll just call you okay?" Lydia nodded and then orbed away, giving Wyatt, Prue and Chris some privacy. "So..?" Prue said, still wanting to know about their meeting of
yesterday. "yeah, I guess we need to talk" Chris answered, he was really hoping he could just get away quietly.
"I was in town today, buying some stuff from the grocery list and well when I was at my car I saw a men I thought I recognized, so I turned to really look. I realized quickly it was Chris and kept bugging him to talk to me. So after we
walked for some time Chris gave in, he told me how his life was so far and I told him about ours. We also went to visit grandpa, you should have seen his face, he was so happy." Wyatt explained to Prue when they were seated
downstairs in the living room. Chris hadn't really want to move, not wanting to risk any other family member seeing him, but according to Prue pretty much all the other family members were on a little trip, and wouldn't be back until
somewhere in the morning. Chris gave in, thinking there was enough time to tell the story, talk a bit with Prue and then to leave before the rest was back. "I can't believe that after all these years of searching you found him, right here in
this city" Prue said, she wanted to know about Chris's life, but was a bit afraid to ask. She was really happy though, that he had visited their grandfather, she knew how much Victor wanted to see his grandson one last time. "You want to
know about my life huh?" chris guessed, seeing Prue's look. Prue nodded sheepishly, busted. "I guess I can tell you the same I told Wyatt" Chris said.
"It really isn't much of a story, and really I just gave him a cliff note version. After I left you guys I moved in with Bianca, I was already in collage so I just kept studying, I graduated, got a good job, Bianca and I got married. We took the
next step in married life so we got children. They're twins, a boy and a girl, Jason and Sophia. They're 5 years old now. And well that is really all there is to tell" Chris told Prue. Prue's eyes shined, Chris had children! Though Chris had left
many years ago, Prue always believed that she knew her cousin, and so she wasn't really that surprised that Chris married Bianca and had children, it had always been a dream of him to have a family, his own family. "Wow, I guess I
always knew you would be the first to really settle get married, have children all that stuff. I'm really happy for you!" Prue said, and she was, truly happy. I was good to know Chris was okay and that he had a good life.
"we're home!" Came the voice of Piper, the rest of the family was behind her, they had decided to go back early when Piper and Phoebe got the feeling something was wrong with their children. Looks of horror were shown on the faces of
Chris, Wyatt and Prue. There was no way Chris could leave without being noticed, if he orbed they would see his orbs and demand an explanation, if he ran to the back door he would be too late. No it was pretty obvious he would have
to face his whole family now, Shit. "they're back early" whispered Prue, horror was still on her face, she had been the one to convince Chris to stay and go downstairs, Chris would never trust her again. "I really didn't know they would be
home early!" Prue began to explain quickly, hoping it would help her case. "Why are they back early, they're never back early" Wyatt said, he understood what this would mean, as soon as Chris got the chance he would leave and never
come back. "It's okay, I know it's not your faults" Chris said to them, he was the one who was stupid enough to stay around. "hello? Are you home, Wyatt? Prue? Are you okay?" Piper yelled, walking in the living room. A loud gasp was
heard, followed by more loud gasps before there was complete silence. Prue, Wyatt and Chris were staring at the rest of the family, while the rest of the family was staring at Chris. Their eyes were round and filled with shock and hope.
"Chris?" Leo said, he was the first to recover. "hi leo" Chris answered in a cold voice, he so didn't need a family reunion right now. "O my god, Chris!" Piper said, then silence filled the room again, everybody staring at Chris, they were all
hoping the same.
They were hoping to ask for forgiveness and they were hoping to get their Cousin/nephew back.
AN. I hope you liked it! Please review!
