chris' p.o.v

"You think this is funny?! They could be evil!!They might be out to kill them!!...Why are you still laughing?!" i shouted at my idiot brother as he sat laughing. This is really serious, the girls could be in trouble, so what does he do?...he sits and laughs about it.

"come on Chris, don't you think you're being a little over dramatic here? i mean, even if those guys were evil..."

"WHAT?! They are evil?! you knew this the whole time and you let us orb out of there?! what if they need us?! what if they get killed?! what if..."

"CHRIS!!! I said, if they were evil, not that they are" he says rolling his eyes. oh what does he know? he's just the twice blessed child. pffft. jackass.

"well if you would stop interrupting me, i could actually look through the book of shadows and try to find something on these guys" i hear Wyatt sigh before he walks over and slams the book shut.

"you have been looking through the damn book, cover to cover, for three and a half hours. There is nothing in there about them, therefore, they aren't a threat" oh come on. is he serious?! twice blessed child my ass. this guy's an idiot.

"how many demons has mom gone up against that were evil, but weren't in the book?"

"sigh Chris..."

"Wyatt! how many?!" there he goes again with the eye rolling. maybe next time he does it, i'll get lucky and his eyes will stay that way. maybe then i can be the one to laugh at him.

"one or two maybe..."

"Wyatt"

"okay, so a truck load. so what? that doesnt automatically mean that they're evil. besides, you know just as well as i do that the girls can handle themselves" oh, so he does have a plan to protect the girls. and here i was panicking. he's just going to let them march off to war to get slaughtered. silly me. Does anyone else think my brother is INSANE?!?!

"handle themselves? HANDLE THEMSELVES?!"

"yes, Chris, handle themselves. what are you, my freaking echo?!"

"Wyatt, Peyton is an exact carbon copy of you!" he glares at me.

"and what the hell is that supposed to mean?" finally, it's my turn to roll my eyes.

"it's supposed to mean that even if she was seconds away from dying, she still wouldn't use her powers. because it's 'wrong' or whatever kinda crap you two are spurting these days" again with his eye rolling. im thinking about poking him in one eye just to see if he still rolls his eyes...well, it would be eye, but you get what i mean. "and you think Pandora is going to use her magic? she doesn't even understand it let alone know how to use it. So you tell me oh great lord wyatt, how are they going to protect themselves?!"

"Parker. Your exact carbon copy. Who would use her magic to turn the TV on if she could. She's just like you. And if you were faced with evil magic, what would you do?"

"...fine. point taken. but that doesn't mean that we stop looking for information on these guys. Just because Parker might be able to fend them off for a while, doesn't mean i want those Ipswich idiots anywhere near her or the girls" i grab the book and make my way down stairs.

I hear Wyatt groan in frustration. not my fault he's too stupid to realise these guys will bring nothing but trouble to my sisters. not my fault he won't use his magic to help.

But i know someone who will
