Saving My Brother and Family
Disclaimers: The show and characters don't belong to me, the story belongs to me everything else belongs to the creator and the movie company.
Warning: For this chapter Chris and Leo are going to be giving the elders the truth as he settles into his life with his parents, before their next situation starts. Also Billy Zane's character is going to be joining in early, as a friend, till he takes Cole's place in her life and before she meets Coop later.
He's going to become a regular as a friend, before he takes over as her lover, before she meets Coop and from there, Chris's alterations start taking shape and things change direction, before Chris is born. Though they meet the avatars, Chris is alive and things get better for the Charmed Ones and their family.
Chapter 10: Telling The Elders And Family Decisions IV
"Alright, the truth is out, so with that you know what to do now Andy, to prove his claims and you're right. You can't know too much Piper or it'll erase him or someone he loves from existence, in our future." she read out in answer to that and she nodded. "Yeah I get that and don't worry, I'm not pushing him for details, once he thinks I'm ready, than I'll ask, but not until then sis, I'll take care of him."
"But any number of secrets can damage the future and while I'm on the subject, the pains of future wrongs is getting Cole in big trouble with Leo and me when we learn the extent of what he has to show us Phoebe. I don't care if he loses his powers or not, he's still a demon." Piper said and Prue read out the next message. "Yes and your secrets just barely destroyed our family and look what it does to the future."
"It doesn't matter he's stripped of his powers or he's human now, 150 years of life as a darksider you can't reform from that amount of time. Phoebe, listen to me, Cole is a demon, no matter he doesn't have his powers or not, or he's human or not, there's still ways to come back from that. And Chris knows that, because everything he told you is the truth, if you don't believe me than see for yourself." she said and Leo crossed his arms as he answered her at that.
"Guys we decided to reverse time to when we were kids, the twins were born first, Leo and I got married in high school, as the spell breaks. When Wyatt is 4 months old, before said dragon, so his powers, witch powers get bound from now to 12 years old. We're getting Paige in after the car accident, and we told the cops, we're getting ready to tell the judge. The authorities and Curtis's boss, so we're in the clear." Piper said and she heard a satisfied smile enter her voice.
"Nice thinking Piper, I never would have thought to do that, reverse time and then in year 6 we bind Wyatt's witch powers. While getting Paige after her adoptive parents pass." Prue said and she nodded. "We may have to work with the parallel as well, guys, they're doing the same thing, so if their Chris and Leo end up here, our's there, we just suck it up. And do it, but you girls are split down the middle, you're with me." she said and heard a smile then.
"Paige and Phoebe handle this, while you're having me staying with you, once you go into the labor, yeah okay we do that, what else then?" she said and Leo smiled. "Said truth spell, so you, Piper and Chris cast that on Gideon, we got him." he said and heard a smile. "That's ingenious guys, we never considered that in sending him back in the first one. Alright be careful guys, what about the Brotherhood." Prue asked, reading her remark.
"Yeah we do know, and frankly I'm still pissed at his breaking her heart six months ago and her and you nearly destroying our marriage, before it could even begin, because my son wouldn't be standing here. If we hadn't gone through with it and with those words, only one option and it's by us seeing going to the tribunal and seeing his memories for what they are. Who of you chose to send him back, if you wanted this prevented at all costs?" Leo asked and he heard a sigh in the tone as she answered him gently.
"Me, Kalina, D.J., mom, Grams, Andy, Derek Janson, Tyler and you're meeting him later this coming year Piper, and Phoebe's daughter and her future husband. With him in the past, he, and Eric, needs you most of all now Sis, Leo, as to why he lost both of you and his younger sister in the side of two years. Andy and I tried to raise him ourselves with Baby Charmed gone, but he wanted you back most of all now." she said and the couple nodded as Andy answered her.
"Quick question on that, did he bond to me after Leo was killed at the time, because he responded to me automatically?" he asked and in answer to that a new message was written out. "That's my hand writing, I'll read this out." he said and they nodded. "He did, in his eyes you were like a second father after Leo was killed. Our bond was like the one you were developing with him today, he needs you both now."
"Sis, Piper, everything he told you was true, but to learn the extent, you have to go to the tribunal and see his memories. We can send the DVD's to you, but each one is going in order after each year is up, this one connects to October. Which is when your sister comes into it. So four months, and we send you this year and his school term next Prue, Piper." he read out and they both nodded.
"Thanks big brother, with my just getting the truth of this up front and the alibi, before our version of you busted him. It's enough I'm not losing my son or giving him up now, the future consequences remarks we can take, but his personal life is just that, we're ready to know when he deems us ready to know everything. We can change things, but we need to know where to begin. But first we need to see the amount of pain."
"He's holding in, if our family is the one hitting him hardest." Piper said and she heard a sigh as an answering remark entered his tone. "Losing you and his sister was one thing Piper, he misses you both, but losing Leo, he just about destroyed the attic out of whatever electrical outburst you saw tonight when he laid into him. It took me fifteen minutes to calm him down, so once we reach the spider demon, that's when you got to go to emotional therapy bro, you're his catalyst."
"Just like Prue was for Piper, Leo, it's the exact same thing, he's holding in seven to ten months of anger at him for abandoning him when he promised he'd never do that. Dead or not, it's hitting him hard, he's ready to kill Cole for killing his father, because he was with that Darklighter that did it, it's not Alec, but one of his friends that did it." Andy read out and they all nodded to that gently.
"Yeah, alright, now just how the heck did you turn the book into a way to talk to us between time frames exactly, because this is ridiculous?" Piper asked and they heard a chuckle as she answered her. "You remember our conversation on what time does for our powers, if you pack enough of a punch you can send messages back and forth between the past and present, or the present and future." Prue said in answer to that and she nodded to that remark gently.
"Alright let me guess, in our time frame, that is the one that they created for the tv series, than this is just before and after his adult counterpart tried to prevent it. Our Chris is born after his adult counterpart was killed or he's from that first time line, where I never forgave the elders for taking Leo away from me and whatever happens next?" Piper asked and she sighed as she answered that gently to her.
"Can't tell you that Piper, but what I will say if you give yourself a chance to get to know Kalina and the others, they learn what's at stake and why he decided on this choice, why we decided on this choice. They're going to set aside the reservations and you and the elders work as one, but remember that old remark. 'Keep your friends close, and keep your enemies closer.', it's your only chance at survival now'." she said and they nodded to that as she answered that.
"Yeah and though CIA grants sanctuary to an enemy turncoat, they never trust them, they watch them like a hawk. And our enemy turncoat is the reason for my son's emotional breakdown now. Yeah, alright, you got your wish, your warnings about what's at stake and your future is being taken seriously, he's now my first born son, and I'm finishing what I used to do in order to take care of him." Piper said to her gently.
"Dont worry though, Leo and I will take care of him, and we will change the future sis, you can count on us." she said and a gentle message wrote itself out at that. "I know Piper, but just remember, don't hold on to your anger, once we reach my supposed attack, or it's going to destroy you, in your time frame, I'm alive, and you and I can take care of things, good luck guys and see you on the other side." Prue read out and they nodded as she looked at Piper then smiling.
"Not a bad idea, alright I just repeat the cloning spell for a single clone, wait for whoever the assassin is to attack and let him take her out, and while I take back stage. Than once we find our youngest and let her help, you guys take him out together, and I reactivate so we can train her together as I teach her everything she needs to know later." she said as they heard a meow and looked up and saw their cat standing there.
"Hey girl, is Baby Charmed One alright?" Leo asked and she gave a yes meow to him as she walked into the room and moved over to them as they talked and he chuckled as he watched the cat climb in to Chris's lap as he pressed his forehead to hers and she started purring loudly at that as Leo and Piper both smiled at that. "We had a cat when I was growing up, but she was waiting for me to show up." he said and they nodded.
"Well I definitely see it now, the cat likes you, like she knows you're my son." he said and Piper smiled at that as Chris chuckled as Andy looked at them smiling. "It worked, alright that's one." Andy said and they nodded as Piper looked at Jenna then. "Jenna you alright?" Piper asked her and she nodded as he looked at Chris after seeing the amount of damage done in the fight and looked at him in bemusement.
"Well that's one hell of a blow out right now. Kid, next time you pull stunts like this, make sure that everyone is ready before you blow a hole in the wall next." Andy said to him and he chuckled as he answered him. "With the fact Cole just had a relapse, he's going to blast Raynor for this, but for the time being its family time between us till situation number two starts." he said and they nodded to that.
"Was that all you brought honey, because if you need fresh clothes we can get you some stuff and we got you settled in your bedroom?" Piper asked and he nodded to her. "Yeah, but here's the reason I came back." he said and passed them a photo and she and Leo looked at it. "That's us, how old are you in this photo baby?" Phoebe asked him and he sighed as he answered her as he looked at her.
"I was seven, my sister and brother were nine and five and you and Aunt Charmed One had taken the family photo, as time goes on I can give more details, but altogether this is why I came back, my cousin is your daughter and Cole's not the father either, but you'll meet him soon enough just give it time, but what I will say is that the father is a magical being like Dad and Uncle Andy." he said and she nodded to that information.
"So one failed marriage and then I find happiness, I can deal with that." she said and he looked at her. "Well the responsibilities only get stronger Aunt Phoebe, you're the youngest right now, but when mom takes over you go from being the youngest to middle sister, but I can help you cope as this keeps up." he said and she nodded. "Somebody better get these issues under control, if it's like you guys when you go at it."
"So which of the girls married a mortal exactly, because if he couldn't care less I don't doubt Victor wouldn't care if he saw us in our elements later, if I clipped my wings, yet again?" Leo asked and Chris explained that. "Baby Charmed One actually, but that's in five years, my uncle couldn't care less she was magical while her situation with an agent turned him into a whitelighter after he killed a member of group that winds up nearly getting dad killed yet again at the time." he said and Leo covered his eyes.
"Alright you can reveal details as each situation crops up, but this is information overload right now, we better take a break though. Well one good thing we got five years till you return to the future, we can just spend that time getting to know each other and be the family you need right now." he said and Chris smiled slightly at that. "Not quite dad, I'm staying till October of 2006, this way I gere till I'm 23 going on 24." he explained to him.
"Yeah alright, so what messages you tell yourself and your brother, it's going on after the last date on that list?" Piper asked and he nodded to her gently. Before he could answer though, they heard a knock on the front door and they headed downstairs and went to get the door. "Hey guys, well it worked?" Darryl asked and they nodded as they lead him into the living room. "Whoa, what the heck happened in here, it looks like a warzone." he added and Piper sighed as she answered his question, with a bemused look.
"Excessive force with my explosion powers and it blew up the cupboard Darryl, hang on, let the object of objection become but a dream as they cause the scene to become unseen." she said and the mess was replaced with a clean living room and he nodded to that as Eric looked at their grandfather clock, that looked like it took damage to it and snapped his fingers and it was fixed and gave off nine chimes and he chuckled.
"Chris, wait, different colored shirt, and you are son?" he asked and Eric smiled. "I'm his twin Darryl, my name is Eric." he said and Darryl nodded smiling gently. "Fast discussion, we're turning back the clock 16 years, so you knew about the twins. You knew Andy was always with us and that Andy got back together with Prue, so you knew everything here right now. We just do this as though like it always now finally, and things are going to change for the better."
"As for why the quartet are here and my mother and Grans are walking around in the flesh, we told the chief, the commissioner and the duo that did Phoebe the most. But we just exposed ourselves to Sheridan and Cortez now, but in over their heads. The cops know already in our parents age group, as did you and Andy." Piper said and he smiled in relief. "So I knew all along over the last 14 years, as did Andy what you are, I don't have to hide anymore finally here."
"Alright now that you brought the chief and the Commissioner into this along with the duo that did Phoebe the most 8 years ago, I can say this finally. As I have nothing to hide, but like at the press, just what the hell is going on around here right now. It's turning into a 3-ring circus, the answer is we got the sides of good and evil going at it till the evil succeeds. But you are just making it too damn easy, you are walking right into it!" he snapped and the duo swallowed hard.
"What you want to bet that the editor of the Bay Mirror was considering the city was going to pot after everyone's exhaustion just took a dangerous turn. But first this and then her powers result in causing a riot, after she got hit by the man's anger after he was ticked. At their boss for whatever she disagreed, and this was directly after said dragon goes flying passed Paige's temp job window, but what next exactly here right now?" Chris asked and he crossed his arms then.
"I'm not entirely sure right now, but to say this right now, we're not taking a gamble on that bet, because it's a no winner right now. And secondly I know if tempers are getting short it's lack of sleep, so no bet, kiddo. In fact, everyone knows that exhaustion means short tempers till a riot breaks out or whatever happens here right now. But altercations, riots, road rage, what the hell is going on around here lately?" The commissioner said and Leo answered that question.
"Dreams are meant to unload your emotions, whatever is going on, all the negative emotions are released when you get a good night's sleep. In this case now, someone is killing sandmen and without them, everyone's sleep cycles are being screwed around with. Till the tempers start getting short enough to explode here." he said and Darryl nodded. "Elm Street 3, Dream Warriors, Witch style, Leo?" he asked and Leo nodded and he gave nod of exasperation.
"Then the 4 of us got to keep coming to you and Andy for intel on this before and after the trio are born, but this is getting ridiculous right now." Inspector Alex Pearson said in annoyance then and Darryl nodded in agreement to that remark. "And you thought year one was weird strange and after every case kept coming back to them now for some odd reason. Well the 5 of us are exchanging information back and forth till the spell snaps." he said and they nodded sternly.
"At first I was a skeptic, not anymore after seeing their powers in action, I've been with them for 18 months, and our bonds only grew deeper. They're sisters to me you two, I love them all, they're my family." he said and they started shaking in fear at that. "My godsons are here to prevent someone from destroying their brother, her unborn baby. But year 6, is a case of we're hunting down whoever did it till we got the right demon." he said sternly and Sheridan paled.
"Going over the god damn case of grand theft auto, he was trying to chase down a demon that he was tracing, but forgot to ask to borrow the keys. After the bastard nearly ran him down with the Ferrari." he said and Chris nodded to confirm that thought and he nodded. "Said car was a Porsche, but you got the rest of it right, after the situation prior to this. You had enough, but we're getting you out of town after said Spider demon case." Eric said and he nodded sternly.
"So I got no reason to be worried about, the cops know, as do the judge, the doctor and the authorities, so this is the power rangers just in witch mode. If the original 11 told the town cops, military and authorities, let alone their parents, the truth?" he said and the twins nodded. "Yep and I just did that after mom got dad's bosses in the angels down here next. But everything going on that year after you come into it Inspector, is us demon hunting for the right one."
"That traumatized my brother enough he crashed here, and turned into Vader without the mask, before we destroy our next version of Cole and destroy the shadow demon under the house." he said and she nodded shaking in shock. "But in order to do this, though my birthday is at the end of the season, in season 6, we got until then to find our demon. And your interference is only pushing my father closer to the edge of overly protective." Chris said and she nodded shaking.
"Dad and me, our bond is like any normal father/son here." he said and Leo came to a decision at that. "Piper, just tell me, you're pregnant, I can come back to see you and get a job as handyman, so I can pay child support. Or we get married that young, and I'm a whitelighter, father and husband." he said and she nodded as she hugged him tightly as he looked between his boys and the twins smiled gently at that as they into a 4-way hug then gently at that.
"Andy, you're meeting me at 18, so I'm living in the manor, but we're both married at the right age, we're close brothers and we can manage here. But the twins have me as their father always around now, as for your being a cop, we're doing the magical renovations early." he said and Darryl nodded smiling as Andy shook his hand smiling. "Sheridan, I swear, my family life is none of your damn business, my parents age group and Penny's had this set up in advance."
"Alright you two, all those perps that disappeared, they're all demons and warlocks, Williamson got infected with their powers and lost his mind, and started killing people." he said sternly and they paled at the reveal shaking. "But every time something involved magic, I came to them, or them to me, just say we got a few missing women, she comes to me and then says it. All of them are witches right now, she and the girls are trying to find them after Chris's adult self."
"Now was killed out of your interference if that's what happened, but I'm going on vacation leading into his birthday till the dust settles, I come home. And our friendship never changes at all here, so what do I have to do, get you transferred to L.A., Chicago, what?" he asked sternly and they both went white in fear at that, realizing he was sick of this. "I love those boys like my own sons, if Piper named me their godfather, they're my family, the girls are sisters to me."
"Sheila won't care either once she sees the girls powers, but to her, to insure nothing changes between our families, is a vacation in between said climaxes." he said and said it sternly. "But do you think this is not the first time I ever put my life, my job, my family now on the line. For the girls, they are the best damn people I have ever met, they do more good then you'll ever know. And it nearly costs them their sister, after Penny passed." he said and they swallowed hard then.
Before a purple DVD case ended up on the table and he checked it, as they saw the word Charrmed on the one marked with a star. "Oh crap, that would be that particular case is we're dealing with pirate style demons, if it's being said like that. And you're staking out the front of their house, till Piper does a D.A.D., to get whoever it is passed you. Just so she can talk to me, and she tells me, our search are witches here." he said and Sheridan swallowed hard at that.
"Thank god we made this change, I am not losing you, Darryl." Piper said and he nodded as he hugged her and she tightened her arms around him then. "Love you too, but we make this change and nothing changes, I don't have to cover for you. As the precinct and the authorities, let alone the doctor know in advance, if an injury needs a trip to the hospital. And for whatever happened now, but this is too much." he said and they both looked at Sheridan sternly then.
" Damn it, alright, the girls, the Elders, Leo, Andy, you and I are on the same case, we're searching for the last kidnapping as we're exchanging leads back and forth here. And we got her staking out the house, come on we don't have time for this fight right now!" Piper said in exasperation and Darryl nodded in agreement. "And this is exactly what we don't need, young lady: interference." Sandra said as they and Leo exchanged irritated looks at that remark.
"But interference by you, is like adult interference on the Elm Street series, every time that happens. And it killed the kids, until the entire block is dead, and he started wiping out the entire town. Well this is the exact same thing, we don't need you butting your noses in where it doesn't belong here." Darryl said and they went white in fear at that news. "Aw crap, get the supreme court judge, the FBI, and the Homeland security and the D.A., we need to do this now."
"So we can have this swept under the rug, and get the hospital head doctor, Williamson's boss." Prue said and he nodded sternly as Chris Orbed out and went to get said group, and then orbed back in then. "Ladies want to tell me what this is about as your son just exposed himself to us, and you with him?" the doctor asked with a bemused smile then. "You remember said unexplained case to why I survived the arroyo fever and the aftermath that came with it."
"By that I mean we had 30 more cases of said virus, followed by it stopping, my saying my husband's name and his obsession with trying to figure it out. His treating said monkey trio like lab rats, before you got the report Ritter was in the hospital for a missing kidney. And who did it had medical training?" Piper asked and the doctor nodded gently. "We're witches, Doctor, but Curtis accidentally got stabbed with a syringe with our blood." Piper said and he nodded sternly.
"I told him to leave this alone, and he doesn't follow orders?" he said sternly and she nodded gently to him. "My husband saved me after I got infected with the arroyo fever, but everyone that was hurt or worse were victims of demon attacks or worse. Like Ritter, was subjected to being our innocent, we protect people, but the said warlocks and demons. Are everyone that disappeared here now, it was us." she said and the D.A. head nodded gently to the news then.
"So all this time every crime scene was a demon or warlock attack, how about our perp last October baby, when your sister encountered Turner?" the judge said and she nodded. "He was infected by one, my brother in law and his partner ended up getting cursed here. By, to them, and for some strange reason, every case kept coming back to us, as for Jenna. We had another one, just as my son and his twin came here from the future." she said and they nodded then.
"Mrs. Halliwell, is it the same for you as well?" the judge asked looking at Penny and she nodded to him. "Yes your honor, but as the head of the family now, I was training my girls in the rewrite, leading into my heart attack, but had Phoebe had her powers back then. What possibly happens at the class reunion will be the result here, along with some sort of add on." she said and they nodded. "You got the snatchers on the loose, Grams." Chris said and they nodded sternly then.
"Snatchers?" the judge repeated and Patty explained it to him. "They're demons that kill by acid saliva, so to put that another way, if one of my daughter's friends was said hostage. Their only option to stop Gittridge, after the snatchers've been chasing my grandson all over the place. Is, and Gittridge never knew what Chris looks like as a 17 years old in the body of a 21. Is by them masquerading him as Chris's double, and he dies, magic style." Patty said to him and he nodded.
"So Gittridge asks for a change of appearance…" the judge asked and Chris nodded sternly then. "That leaves us one option in a case of desperation to save whoever was part of the quartet, and it's death by being the physical duplicate of my adult counterpart. But this is a magical version to the electric chair or just the lethal injection now." he said and the man nodded. "Serves him right for whatever he did, he's dangerous and in desperation, he became a threat to everyone."
"That we have no choice here." Penny said and the judge and the commissioner nodded gently. "Just like Curtis never left you any choice, he crossed the line between good and becoming a megalomaniac, that it left only one choice, not an easy choice. But at times there are things or people no one can save, sweetheart, you're not all powerful here. It was just his time to go, don't blame yourself, you tried." the doctor said and Piper nodded as he gave her a hug gently.
"That's the hard part of being a force of good, at times you became so used to saving people, that a loss is hard, but our bloodline dates all the way back to the Salem Witch trials." Penny said and he nodded as the FBI and Homeland Security heads looked at the duo and crossed their arms. "I can take a wild guess, you just arrested these two before they expose you, and put others at risk?" the security head asked and they nodded and the judge nodded sternly at that.
"Young man, young lady, you realizing instead of protecting people you're putting others and yourselves at risk by interfering here. What happens if his adult self, that's Cub there, but his adult self, who's hurt or worse, and his father is still grieving. Loses it when they got a demon in the nursery, you arrive and he could attack you by accident?" the doctor said sternly and they swallowed hard at that. "Leo's like us, Doctor, by that point." Odin said and they nodded then.
"Danger catch?" The judge asked and he threw a bolt of lightning at the clock and it exploded and they nodded as Chris snapped his fingers and it repaired itself and then gave 9 chimes and then a ding and they nodded sternly. "Point taken here, but you want that thrown at you, because he's on a fight or flight response, that could kill you and that's not his fault." the doctor said and Darryl nodded as he looked at the duo sternly at that remark then sternly at this.
"Thank you, that's why I'm trying to help out in their case, if Cole gets her pregnant right now, that baby could lead to another problem and to get everyone here to understand. Just say they had to take him out next right now, and for the second time in 16 months. It's we got to make this look like he left her, and to said detective is now a deadbeat dad here. Like I said Cortez, you think this wasn't the first time I risked my job, my life, my family for those girls now."
"They do more good then you'll ever know and it nearly cost them their sister, just back off, before I get you transferred, that goes for you too, Sheridan." he said sternly and they nodded shaking in fear at that. "Guys, we came up with an idea here to handle this, but it means reversing time back 16 years. But I told all of you in advance, after reactivating Prue and Piper's powers, you especially, Doctor, so you knew here in why we had to do a few things here."
"So this way, when Phoebe activates her powers and the twins with her, Leo's come home and Andy's always here in between cases, you know it's family business. And they're doing what we were born to do, but that first year is you already knew in advance here. So you have missing perps here after whatever happens, you know they're warlocks or demons. And the girls took out another one right now." Penny said and they all nodded sternly smiling at her idea gently.
"There was going to be a need to expose ourselves sooner or later, but just consider this the tv show gone witch." Chris said and they nodded gently. "Your brother's T-shirt, son?" the judge asked and he nodded as Darryl pulled Chris into a hug, before he did Eric and they smiled. "This is not turning into another arroyo fever right now, as that barely killed mom, but it's all there. Misuse of our powers and safety guideline, there is always a drawback here right now."
"For mom it was Williamson, for Paige it was she gets her breasts magically enlarged after hexing her co worker for harassment. And for Phoebe right now, her lost and find spell went crazy as there was a mess to clean up here." Eric said and he tried to keep from laughing. "You telling Victor next though, Piper?" he asked and she nodded and he sighed in relief. "Don't force us into doing the send away spell, you know what we are." Grams said and he nodded shaking.
"She means sending you to another state or country, and what if the devil's messenger chooses that moment to attack, before Paige arrives here?" Piper said and his eyes widened in fear at that. "You mean, if you never used that to get me out of the house, he'd have killed me next after killing whoever it was that you tried to protect?" he asked and she nodded sternly. "This is interference that can get you killed and did Williamson not make a point to you here now."
"He lost his mind after accidentally getting injected with their blood, their powers were contained in that blood, DNA, Ritter was one thing. But he started killing people after that till the girls had to kill him by use here of said buzz saw blade." Darryl said sternly and he nodded, shaking. "And said succubus, the Grimlocks, Williamson, how many more examples will it take here, you understand the dangers, you're always there when we need you, brother, in truth."
"But you're like our brother, we're sisters to you Darryl, so long as we make a change in year 6 that never changes, but you better go on vacation after we hit said Spider demon. Not the game, but a demon that turns into a spider." Piper said and he nodded. "Agreed, nothing changes, but with Andy back, I don't have to worry about covering for you. As the quartet already know what you are, now." he said smiling in relief and she nodded as Chris smiled.
"Da, da, da da da da, I am, your singing telegram." they heard from the sunroom, as they heard a gunshot and then a door slamming and the chief started laughing. "That remind you of anything last year, Piper?" Prue asked and she nodded as Chris started laughing. "Yeah I just get back from the movie theater, going over what I remember, hear the scream. And then stab said axe wielder in the back, before we got Bloody Mary showing up next, before a movie cliche."
"As we take her out, Phoebe said we kill these characters the way they're doing it in the movies, that works and then kill that demon by turning off the projector, but not the light. But I thought we killed that demon already, who left the tv on, after we had him jumping into the movies. And dragging the killer out of them last year?" Piper said and they all started laughing at that. "Well that explains the riots at the movie theatres right now, so we had one jumping into movies."
"And dragging said killers out of them after the hero of her favorite horror movie knocked him out of the picture play here?" the judge asked and the duo, Leo and Darryl all nodded. "This kind of thing happens to us all the time in truth here Chief, Your Honor, we're used to it. But after we killed another, Phoebe realized we had to get justice for Tyra and scared a confession. Now, out of Gibbs, before we hit the blasted astral monkey situation." Prue said and he nodded gently.
"The kids playroom from 4 to 10 was the sunroom, and our tv set is in there, so growing up a normal family, we left the attic door shut and locked. Especially if we had mortals not in on our secret in the house, but a Libris was Tyra Wilson's counterpart. And a forced a confession out of Gibbs, after making it seem as though Tyra was haunting him after coming into the pawnshop." she said and the doctor started laughing as the Commissioner crossed his arms with a smile.
"Tyra Wilson, that was you?" the judge repeated and he nodded. "Yeah a friend of Phoebe's at school was killed, so before she could go to heaven, it's she had to get justice for the Wilsons." Piper said and they nodded gently at the news. "Like you said son, they are the best people I have ever met, the family does more good then anyone ever knows. And at one point, it nearly costs them their sister here." the Judge said and Darryl nodded as the twins exchanged smiles.
"Alright we can handle this easily, guys, you got police duty, if necessary, if the boys here are the cubs you'll be pregnant with in 3 years, my deputy can be your doctor." the doctor said and Piper nodded gently at the news. "My oldest son is also being born in the hospital, to put this gently, is being born in the house makes you susceptible to going either way. So before we do the spell to reverse time, all of you get up here, Darryl bring Sheila now as it won't affect us."
"Just everyone in town outside of our circle, but the timer on us in blacking out the fact the boys are teenagers from the future. Said is set till Year 6, season 6, and my oldest son is 4 to 6 months old." she said and they nodded. "Does that mean us too?" Sheridan asked and she crossed her arms. "You plan to expose us here, because Darryl and his family are going out of town after the Spider Demon?" she asked and she shook her head as she answered her then.
"Why you never just tell us this, if that tv season was your original lives, if Prue never survived this?" she asked and she said it firmly. "It's forbidden for mortals to know about magic, just imagine if my oldest conjured a dragon out of the tv. The cleaners rewind the day and erase him from existence." she said and they nodded. "So I take a sabbatical and take my family on vacation until the end of that season, then after the twins are born, I come back home now."
"So we got our minds blocked from the fact the twins are time travelers until your set timer ends at season 6. The pilot episode on Season 6, that gets exchanged for his annoyance at Chris's adult self's alter ego?" Darryl said and she nodded then. "And that's not if he drops in as well, as we alter his appearance, and he looks like a mixture of Prue and Andy." Piper said and Darryl and Andy nodded smiling at her fast thinking then gently at that news.
"Where you learn that spell from exactly?" he asked and she chuckled. "Though we read the book, there were spells mom and grams put in there we're digging into. But we're adding our own soon enough, before we pass the book to the next generation." she said and he nodded to that as he looked at the living room with a smile. "I'm taking a more proactive approach in training, and I'm teaching my son." she said and he nodded to her.
"Well that works in repair jobs, so what's this mean now, remodeling the house later by use of your powers?" he asked and Chris smiled as he answered. "Though we unexpectedly have frequent power bursts, expect the remodeling to result in a few added changes later, but with dad being a contractor and handy man he can do the remodeling while mom does the knocking out several walls on the house to make more room." he said and Darryl nodded as he looked at the titles for the couple as he answered him.
"Okay kiddo, who are you really?" Darryl asked and before Chris could answer he looked from Piper to Chris and back as they and Leo were sitting together on the couch, with Andy leaning against the arm of it with Prue leaning against his chest and smiled. "Wait never mind, you're their son aren't you, only not one, but two, so she had twins. I take it the alibi that Leo chose for you is true, aside from being born in the 80's?" he asked and he nodded to that smiling.
"That too actually buddy, born in 1987, they're turning 14 in October, two months after Piper does." Andy said and he nodded smiling then
"Yeah I am, my future is pretty bad, so I came to fix that by making sure whoever turned my brother gets destroyed. I'm just as powerful, as is Eric, but we gained the next step up in those powers after got promoted, to the quintet's level. The quintet are called the Elders, but Eric and me, we're like my parents in the good morale. With the fact that I'm here for the next five years I can heal simply by being with the younger versions of my parents and aunts.
"But for your safety later on I suggest you take a month long vacation with Sheila and little Darryl a few weeks, before I'm born, as to why. Some demon frames you for murder and we're not risking our friendship with you getting destroyed, because of this. With you and Uncle Andy working together, be ready there's going to be several paranormal shootouts you're landing in the middle of later." he said and Darryl nodded to that one.
After hearing that new he decided to take his advice as he said it. "Thanks for the heads up, in other words, I get caught by some demon, or these guys. Said that changed the memories of everyone but us, when I'm with you on a job and they try. Now, to destroy our friendship by having me take the fall for it at the moment. Not going to happen here, nothing is changing our bonds at all, Andy I'm taking a month off till the twins are born, than I'm back on the job, whoever is trying to get involved is not having me as their stooge later in helping them."
"As for frequent shootouts I'm lucky I arrived after the fight here, but this is ridiculous, alright what now where she's concerned?" he asked and Chris explained that. " Well relocation would help, I think she's better off in L.A. actually, and a name change as well, but witness protection program now. Raynor is winding up dead, but we're adding her to our list of charges." he said and they nodded to that as he looked at her.
"Jenna if you ever need to call on us, just call my name or their names and we'll come to you, we'll split the charm in half, but one stays with us and you got the other, okay." Leo said to her and she nodded to him. "What you learn about the Brotherhood exactly?" he asked him and he explained that. "Cole's demon half has two kinds to it, one looking like he does and the other with black skin and red tattoos all over his body."
"The Brotherhood is the bodyguard protection for the Source and frankly that's why I hate him, or more accurately his buddies, so much, they killed mom and Wyatt went on a killing spree, his species are why my future was destroyed, their our first objective and from there we work our way down the list. Till Wyatt is eight months old, because that when things shift direction and you were going to get the truth, but with the fact I dropped the act, I'll give you my conception date later." he said and they nodded to him.
"Shift direction, if my twenty eight year old self was the first to realize it, you were in a rush, because your conception had you worried so much that you could block me out somehow. Alright in whatever time it takes to reach that point, just do details as the situation starts, but again whatever Piper said I'm repeating here, I don't want have to keep bailing you out of jail for doing something illegal, and with you being eighteen, I find out you got arrested for DUI or grand theft auto and you're grounded for a month buddy boy, understand." Phoebe said to him and he nodded to that.
"That's the you I know Aunt Phoebe, you, Aunt Baby Charmed One and mom got overly protective with me, because of a close call or two when I was my babyself." he said and she nodded to that. "Man wait till dad see you, he's going to get a shock that the first, or more accurately, second born of Piper's family is this powerful. Okay as time goes on we can watch your powers and work as a team in combat, if Leo's busy with another charge and Andy's at work." she said and he nodded to that.
"Is this what the house looked like when you were a kid honey?" Prue asked and he nodded. "Yeah, mom left it like this on purpose, with nine kids running around it it resulted in several hide and seek games when we were kids." he said, before a message landed on the floor and he picked it up. "The assassinations are done with and we got the amulets and the spell. The drop attacked worked perfectly, but though we lost one innocent we saved the other." Darryl said and they nodded in agreement.
Thinking over the over reaction they looked at each other as Chris said it for his parents then. "Well tonight was an even bigger blowout than I expected here, for now we just deal with Cole, just try not to get paranoid guys." Chris said and they nodded. "I was already getting paranoid, before we realized he was Belthazor, but now that this is getting even worse and he's burned her twice in six months, Andy we've had some inspector dropping by repeatedly for questions on him, we got to end this and quick." Prue said and he nodded as he looked at Darryl to explain that remark.
"As for Cole, he's relapsed, but soon enough it starts up again and do we have any in the department acting like Rodriguez again Darryl?" Andy asked him and he nodded with a sigh. "Yeah, but if these guys kill one of the girls next he's going to start suspecting foul play when every bad guy that you helped me with suddenly starts dropping off the face of the earth." he said and Andy nodded as Prue answered that.
"That's our next plan actually. You recall the situation when my clones and I were dressed in three different sweaters, after you and Andy kept coming by the house repeatedly?" she asked and he nodded with a bemused look at the memory. "Yeah, and at the time I was beginning to get annoyed by that as well, because suddenly when you guys gain your powers it's like we got to check and double check every other week up here, this was just after the boogieman in the house incident no less as well." he said and Leo chuckled at that as he finished his sentence.
"Though I wasn't around for that, I know what briefly getting turned evil does to you and in which case, if that's the reason Andy got suspended for nearly shooting you by accident, I see why that was a memory you never want to remember since you guys started going by a first name basis with each other." he said and the duo nodded. "I didn't have to ask where all the weird phenomenons were coming from after she and I saw each other that year, but it was like every time something strange happened it always had the girls attached to it when it did." Andy said to him and he nodded.
"Well I found out the reason why Andy, not long after that, we sent ourselves back to when you, Piper and I were kids, and I mean preschoolers at that age, after mom and dad separated, and we learned that every time you told us to freeze she wound up freezing you repeatedly with her power." Prue said and he started laughing at that. "Yeah okay, if that's why I got suspicious, I see why I couldn't care less now, you girls were constantly using your powers and doing it in front of me and I got used to it."
"Twenty two years later that memory faded and suddenly I see everything that I forgot and with that I couldn't care less you're witches, you're my wife and they're my sisters, witches or no witches, I'm not giving you up now." he said and Darryl looked at them in amusement at that. "Yeah okay now I see why you compared anything strange that has to do with the wiccans and witches to what you know, because you're clear sighted and secondly this was practically normal for you, because of the girls."
"Well I wound up with several eye openers after you took on your powers buddy, but now that I see this, I don't care either, the girls are like sisters to me now. If it means my career I'm protecting the girls with my life now." he said and he nodded to that. "I'll talk to Peter and see if we can get him to talk to the commissioner, so to prevent any awkward questions or people that start getting too suspicious there's to be no questions asked." he said to him and he nodded to that.
"The situation gets nasty, so what pissed you off, if she thought that magic was trouble?" Andy asked and he sighed. " Williamson infected himself with their powers and started doing organ transplants and started killing people. After I realized what the hell was going on it took them to pull a fast one and he killed himself by a ricocheting buzz saw flying back at him and bouncing off the wall in the alley."
"Alright we're taking the cases that have to do with the magical world and if the agency gets involved we'll say that the girls are hunting down homicidal maniacs with a penchant for using flame throwers or explosives, and that explains the constant explosions here at the manor. Anything that has to do with the magical world I'll come to you and our innocents are here at the manor, I'll just wear or carry the charm on me when I'm here at the house when we're going over this." Darryl said to him gently.
"The murderer was using an ancient sword to kill witches and she created two more clones of herself, that's why I freaked out, I thought the bastard killed her at the time, we'd been high school sweethearts from the time we were thirteen, and though we were separated I loved her still. But that's why I took the case, and her future self gave us an idea of how to work through situation number three in two months." Andy said to him and he nodded as he answered him as he thought it over then of what he meant by that.
"Clones and situation number three, whoever our innocent is this assassin killed both them and Prue and if that's the case and..., yeah alright I get it, you're pulling a bait and switch in situation number three, before you step down and your youngest sister takes up the mantle next right?" he asked and they nodded to him as Piper answered him as she leaned against Leo with a smile then.
"Yeah that's the plan, the first month after becoming a witch is always the hardest here, so whatever trials she goes through are going to be hard to cope with, but if whatever causes her to move in with us results in blowing up her apartment in the shootout she's got a place to live with the entire family under one roof after that. So expect it to get a bit out of hand." she said and he nodded as he answered her.
"So one sister is busy we got another to fill in the slack and Chris is always with you right, though if the younger of the four suddenly winds up with added trouble we got to figure out how to handle it, before we get exposed. Prue was that why you became a photographer." he said and she nodded. "Yeah instead of being stuck in a job that doesn't give me much family time for emergencies. I decided to set my own hours and be ready at a moment's notice and took a job as a freelance photographer."
"If I work for whatever newspaper Phoebe works for, her boss and I can work out the details and that helps with circulation and she and I both get a shot of working odd hours and taking time off for family later." she said and he nodded to that as Chris thought it over, before answering her. "That works well actually, you make more money that way by working as a freelance photographer for both companies and if one of you is busy we got the other to fill in the slack later, and as for area number two, it's in three weeks."
"Hey I need the rest of this season now Aunt Prue!" he called out and a DVD packet materialized in front of them as he opened it up and yanked the last disc box out as he read the names and nodded. "Alright here we go, as I said this situation they named 'Exit Strategy', the next one is in a few weeks." he said and they nodded to that. "Alright I'm stepping back and taking back stage for a while, Piper you lead in battle till we find our youngest and you take over from there." Prue said to her and she nodded to that.
"If I'm the eldest sister to my version of us, well it's time to take control now, you and Phoebe always had me in the middle, but with the fact I'm stepping up to the plate, Phoebe you'll probably be the mediator for us later on, especially between me and our youngest. The role of the middle child is mediator, peace keeper between the eldest and youngest and I'm who you turn to the most, like I do with Prue, okay."
"If you deal with 'him' later, though it's just us right now, remember we need each other to make it, like we had her guiding us, you follow me and we work out a rotation, but don't let this get to you, things will work out. Soon enough the role in your case is going to change, you're the youngest right now, and you're going to be the middle child soon enough, it's terrifying to you to have that much responsibility I know that baby, but it's just part of growing up, life changes and we make the best of it, okay." she said and Phoebe nodded to her as she answered her.
"If he's my biggest trial I'm accepting that, I just want a man like Billy in my life." she said and they nodded to that. "Billy, you mean the male lead in your movie?" Darryl asked her and she nodded. "I put off falling in love till I met him, dad would see a guy like him as an obvious winner in his eyes and for the girls, if they all see Cole in the same way, a guy like Billy, in their eyes, is worthy of me and my love." she said and Chris smiled as that gave him an idea of who to choose, before his uncle came into it.
"There is such a thing as good demons and bad demons here Phoebe's, we met bad demons only the last three years, there are a few good ones in the ranks, like Bane and that trio of male warlocks we met when we started out, for one, but don't give up on love, because of a bad experience, he's not right for you, we can see that easily we just find you someone who's an exact match later, before you find your life mate." Prue said to her and she nodded to that as Piper answered that.
"At times there's shortage of perfect men in this world, and we got two of the good ones and Darryl is a friend, though we got to find you yours and Baby is going to find her's out of her career and temp jobs later, if I'm right, as to that. This keeps up and the issue of sisterly and sibling judgements get dragged into it, with dad not being like us and mom and grams never considered guys like that jerk that attacked Prue as worthy. And we're heading in the same direction, any man that breaks your heart is not worth it."
"You're our baby sister right now and the youngest is going to agree when I say this, but any man who hurts you emotionally is getting vanquished, vocally, when we get through with them, though for Cole, if he burns you for a third time, and we really are vanquishing him." she said to her and she nodded to that as Chris changed the subject then as he hid an amused smile at her tone of voice then.
"Alright as dad decided we're your whitelighters Jenna so for tonight, till we relocate your coven, use the amulet and put a protection spell on the doors and the apartment till we're sure you're safe and they don't realize you're still alive." he said and she nodded to him. "Thank you for protecting me Chris, I wouldn't be here now if it wasn't for you." she said and he nodded with a smile.
"You're welcome, starting from the time we relocate you, try to stay in touch, witch to witch, you're a friend of the family now." he said and she hugged him and he tightened his arms around her gently as his parents exchanged smiles with the quartet at that declaration, already seeing themselves in him as they ended the interview for the night.
"We'll come check on you in the morning, but I think we better call it for the night guys." Leo said and they nodded to that in agreement. "Alright I'll see you at work in the morning Andy." Darryl said to him and he nodded to that as the duo got up and left. "Where was your room in the house honey, so we can put you in your room?" Prue asked him and he explained that. "Wyatt's room was Gram's old sewing room, my room was next door to his." he said to her and she nodded to that as Leo answered him.
"Alright everything in the sewing room we can move to the attic, or just put in the closet, in two years I'll set up a nursery in our walk in closet, till he's five months old and then we move him into his bedroom. We better get you some furniture or just use what furniture she had in there in yours for the time being, but this house is yours, just make yourself at home, you live at home now." Leo said to him and he nodded to him.
"Whoever asks better be ready, because I'm working the bar at work later, but I'm sticking to soda when we're at the club later. Mom the next suggested group here for concerts for this would be All 4 One, they're a good enough group here." he told her and she smiled as they headed upstairs and he grabbed his duffle bags and brought them into his room and they smiled as watched him sit on his bed.
"Why do I feel like the next few song choices for opening concerts at the club are going to be ones that reflected our current scenarios later?" Phoebe asked him and he chuckled as he answered her then. "Because it's best just to lighten up the mood after the adrenaline levels wear off with what we go through on a daily basis Aunt Phoebe. The Baha Men are doing the song on our next predicament and you're going to find it pretty funny later. As for your feelings over finding your Prince Charming I'll take care of it."
"You want someone who is like Billy, dad, grandpa or Uncle Andy, and that's going to be the opening song as they get started, you'll see later on, but a friend of the elders, who's a good demon, is actually the punchline in the song here for you." he said and she smiled at his thoughtfulness. "Being the golden child at this age, I can see you and your brother are going to matter most to me as I help raise you guys later."
"Before I have my girls, if I'm really who you were closest to out of me and our sister, our bond is going to be very strong and I don't have to hold back secrets now that you told us the truth, but we can build the bond you had with us, before our sister come into our life and our version is now with you from the day she moves in as well." she said as she mussed his hair and he smiled as she hugged him and he tightened his arms around her gently as Prue chuckled as she watched them together.
"Don't worry guys, things are going to be fine, we just get used to being a bigger family now, before our final pieces move into the house as well." she said and they nodded. "Was that backstreet boys song one of the ones that reflected here, because that's going to be Cole later if this keeps up?" Piper asked him and he nodded as he answered her. "Yeah, but at this rate the one focused on vipers is the one I'm worried about, because he's about to wind up dead if he realizes just who he's screwing with later."
"Cole's a warrior, but my chosen selection for her is skilled in old fashioned fighting, swords and such, but he's dad and Andy rolled into one, while my uncle is all four rolled into one, dad, Uncle Andy, Darryl and grandpa rolled into one personality, but he's Billy all over later. One of the situations here results in you seeing a part of dad you don't normally see later, but it's a blast from the past, literally." he said and Phoebe smiled.
"I didn't take fencing in college, but I learned to fight when I joined the army son, though if I have to do battle with a demon, while fencing with him, he's getting the crap beat out of him, if he hurts your mother like that, though I learn to fight with a sword and I'm using that for a while." Leo said to him and Phoebe started laughing at that as Prue and Andy exchanged smiles and Piper answered with a smile.
"Yeah alright I'm adding a several weapons in the martial arts area downstairs as we get used to practicing in fighting these guys, but I'm a skilled martial arts expert and this really ought to be interesting later." Phoebe said with an amused look on her face as she looked at her brother then. "Hey, so you're into science fiction stories?" Prue asked and he nodded to her. "Yeah I love Starwars and Star Trek, Baby Charmed One is like me where this is concerned actually so expect our shelves to be packed with books."
" As to why your sister happens to be a science fiction nut later, but altogether she's an artist, into science fiction and tries to push the limits of her powers, so expect several mishaps in the first month when she meets you as her new big sisters later..., okay, do you remember what you learned after you gained your powers, no personal gain?" he asked and they nodded. "Yeah we do, why do you..., all for gods sakes, if she tries that she's in serious trouble, if there's a snake harassing her later." Piper said in exasperation.
"What exactly?" Andy asked and she looked at him. "Some slime ball starts sexually harassing her at work and she hexes him for it, by turning him into the one who gets a taste of his own medicine. Though that happens and the backfires is that it turns around and does her in the process. I swear if she tries that though she's grounded for three days, training her is one thing, but stunts like this always result in trouble later." she said to him and he nodded in aggravated annoyance at that information.
"I take it I did that once or twice?" Phoebe asked as she looked at him. " Yeah you did, but it was a teaching tool and you guys tended to laugh it off later, though Wyatt, being a toddler, you see things you don't normally expect to see. Your added power is empathy in a few years so try to block things out or you're going to start something by accident." he said and she nodded to that. "Alright wise guy, get smart with me and you're busted." she said as she tickled the back of his neck and he tried to keep from giggling.
"Yeah okay, I get the point here, you win." he said smiling and she hugged him and he laid his head against her shoulder. "Well we all better get some rest, see you guys in the morning." Piper said and they nodded as she, Leo, Prue and Andy left the room. "Hey you okay?" he asked and she sighed. "Give me some time and I will be baby, I'm just relieved you're okay, future nephew or not, you're family and I'm not giving you up." she said and he nodded to that as he looked at her.
