Thank you so so so much for the reviews! sorry for not updating sooner! My bad!
"Bianca" Chris said his eyes full of fury. I glanced around the room, looking for some way to distract her and, hopefully, escape. Bianca tightened her grip around my neck and I held back a wince, knowing Chris wouldn't see straight and would no doubt attack her straight away.
"What the hell are you doing here?" He questioned, taking a few threatening steps forward.
"Nu-uh, stay back Christopher, I mean it" She growled out, pulling me backwards a couple of steps. Chris stopped dead in his tracks, putting his hands up and narrowing his eyes.
"Fine, okay – have it your way" He said, glancing between both Bianca and me.
"What do you want, huh?" He asked, his voice strained, almost as if he was stopping himself from shouting. "What are you even doing here?" his eyes furious.
"Were you taught no manners Christopher" She laughed out and I rolled my eyes in aggravation.
"Okay, fine, have it your way. Your girlfriend already asked me this but I'll explain it again" She huffed out, "I came here with Dagon, but that useless lump left me unconscious. I woke up a couple of days ago and I will succeed where Dagon failed. Your brother wants you back home Christopher and I'm here to drag you there" She said and I just noticed that Chris had a triumphant gleam in his eyes.
"Wyatt's good now Bianca, we changed all that, so I'm afraid you've failed" he said, still keeping his voice even and his hands upraised though he seemed a lot calmer.
"You're LYING" She screamed, and I caught onto what Chris' plan was – and I gotta say, it was a pretty good one.
"No he's not, we stopped Gideon before he could get to Wyatt" I explained and I saw Chris nod slightly at me though he kept eye contact with Bianca.
"No, it's impossible" She exclaimed, disbelief lacing her voice, though there was a hint of sadness there and I knew Chris and I had successfully distracted her.
"Nothing's impossible" Chris whispered and that was when I felt a shift in her demeanour. I grabbed her arm that was around my neck and lifted her body of the ground, flipping her over my shoulder so she landed on her back. I took a deep breath and stepped back just as Chris raced forward and used his elektrokenisis to slam her into the wall. She groaned and slid down it, but stood up just as quickly, her eyes ablaze.
She shimmered away and I looked around the room, desperately searching for a glimpse of her.
"Where the hell did she just go?" I asked, my eyes flitting around the room. Chris stood on front of me, wounding his arm around my waist.
"Your guess is as good as mine" He whispered just as Paige walked through the front door, looking flustered and annoyed.
"Damn traffic, they should really – "She started to say but Bianca shimmered in behind her, smiling a devilish smile that sent shivers up my spine.
"Paige, look out" I screamed at the exact same time Chris shouted "Duck"
Paige dropped the bags she was carrying and turned around swiftly, just in time to block Bianca's attack with a knife. Paige knocked the blade from her hands and got ready to tackle her to the ground but Bianca shimmered out again. I sighed in aggravation. Was she really going to do this? Was she going to act like a coward and play hide and seek?
"Was that Bianca?" Paige asked her mouth slack from shock. Chris grabbed my hand and pulled me forward, keeping me close to his side which I was grateful for. A psychotic, phoenix witch loose in the manor who was angrier than I had ever seen her was not a good combination.
"Yes – she came here at the same time as Dagon did" Chris explained, his eyes flitting around the manor nervously.
"Are we going to kill her?" Paige asked and Chris and I shared a look. What other option was there? She was from the unchanged future who wanted the future to stay unchanged despite the fact that it was already changed. The thought made my head spun.
"We're gonna have to" Chris concluded, just as Piper began to waddle down the stairs looking panicked.
"Are you guys alright? I heard crashing noises" She said and Chris raced over and helped his mom down the last few steps, holding her arm steadily.
"Bianca's here" He explained as we all huddled together.
"Here? As in here in the manor? In this time?" Piper questioned, looking at us all like we were having some kind of joke with her. When we all remained expressionless she lost the entire colour of her face.
"Oh my, well… what are we gonna do?" She asked, rubbing her baby bump protectively. I smiled at this little show of affection. Piper was a great mom, who would do anything for her kids, and seeing her now, when she was pregnant, it showed how motherly she really was.
"You're not going to do anything mom. Paige is going to orb you to magic school because Bianca is dangerous okay? She's on a revenge mission with nothing to lose. Please" He added, smiling at her nervously. Piper looked between us all and sighed.
"Fine, okay I'll go" She relented and Chris looked at her happily.
"But, young man, I want to come back here as soon as it's safe okay? I mean it" She exclaimed, looking at Chris like he was a teenager again.
"Yes mom" he smiled and Paige stepped forward and took Piper's hands.
"I'll be back as soon as possible" Paige said and both she and Piper disappeared in a flurry of orbs. Chris smiled lightly and turned to me, looking guilty. That was when I knew something was up.
"Chris, what is it?" I asked nervously and he looked at me nervously.
"Well, I was thinking that maybe you should go with my mom" He explained and seeing my, no doubt, annoyed expression, he raced on. "It's just, Bianca's dangerous and she has a real vendetta against you, I want to keep you safe" He explained, using his puppy dog eyes which, he knew, I nearly always fell for.
"Aww Chris, don't use those eyes – you're cheating" I exclaimed, looking down at the ground. I heard him laugh slightly as he tilted my chin up so I had to look at him.
"I just want to keep you safe" He said and I rested my hands against his chest.
"I know that" I whispered and he frowned at me, confusion evident in his eyes.
"Then what's the problem?" he whispered back, leaning in closer to me.
"It's just – just because I'm pregnant it doesn't mean I can't do anything. It's my fight as well Chris and I want to help –I have to help. Bianca has been the bane of our lives for years and… and I need to see her gone" I explained and I saw understanding in Chris' eyes.
"Okay" He whispered, leaning his forehead against mine. I'm sure I looked shocked because Chris hardly gave in that easy, he was a s stubborn as an Ox. I was sure I would have to say a whole speech and actually have to threaten him before he gave in.
"Really?" I exclaimed still wondering if I had heard him right. He smiled at my expression.
"Yes, really. I know Bianca has caused us a lot of pain and I can understand you wanting to see her gone… but at least promise me you'll be careful, I couldn't stand it if anything happened to either of you" He said and I nodded straight away.
"Yes, of course, I promise" I vowed and Chris ran his fingers through my hair and kissed me. It lasted for a few seconds before he pulled away and just in time to because Paige orbed in.
"Well, that's piper all safe in magic school, what do we do now?" Paige questioned, staring at both Chris and I.
"Well, it would be a good idea to get Phoebe. Especially with Piper out of commission, we need all the help we can get" I said, instantly getting serious again. Paige nodded.
"I'll go get her, back in a jiffy" She said and disappeared in the orbs again.
"So," I said, facing Chris "Do we have a plan or…." I trailed off, looking at him expectantly.
"Honestly, I have no clue. Bianca could be anywhere by now, our best bet is to probably do a tracking spell but we would need something of hers" Chris said, looking around the place in annoyance. I walked forward and kneeled down, picking up Bianca's blade that she had used to threaten me and attack Paige. It gave me the shivers still looking at it. I recognised it as the blade Bianca had used to stab me with a few years ago. I felt Chris hovering behind me so I stood up quickly, hoping he wouldn't see how the blade affected me.
"This would work – it is technically hers" I said, gingerly passing him the knife. Chris gave it the once over and nodded.
"Yeah, this will do" He admitted just as both Paige and Phoebe orbed in.
"So, we ready to kick some demon whore's ass?" Phoebe asked and I couldn't help but laugh.
"Ready as we'll ever be" Chris said, holding my hand and pulling me forward so we were standing opposite the sisters.
"Well then" Paige said, taking the knife from Chris' hands and exchanging a look with Phoebe "We better get to work" She exclaimed, already climbing the stairs, Phoebe hot on her trail.
So, next chapter will be the fight and I'm adding in a bit of lovey dovey stuff! So… yeah, please review and let me know what you thought! Thanks!
