Chapter 1: High School and Demons

"Hey Wyatt!" yelled Aaron, running into the changing rooms after his best friend. "Great game earlier, you're a total monster on that court. And I don't think I've seen anyone go over those hurdles faster than you that last period there."

"Thanks man," said Wyatt with a grin. "It's getting a little hard to keep up though, I think I play too many sports," he joked.

"Yeah but you're good at all of them and after all why would you deprive us of our star player? I'm telling you, the track team would be totally screwed without you man." laughed Aaron.

"I know, whatever will they do without me next year," joked Wyatt. "I'm really going to miss this place when I leave, high school has been one major blast!"

"I know man, it's been one hell of a ride, but onwards and upwards and all that. College will be even sweeter if my big bro is anything to go by. It's all girls and parties and girls and parties and if we manage our time well, we might be able to fit in a couple more girls and a little more partying."

"Nice," said Wyatt. "It's good to know you've got your priorities sorted out man."

"Yeah so, you going to Mike's later? He just got that new widescreen TV so the gang are going round to watch the Giant's play the Red Socks."

"I don't know, I might be busy . . . you know, family stuff," said Wyatt, putting his sports bag over his shoulder.

"Lucy might be there, and I heard from Michelle who heard from Kelly that she likes you," said Aaron slyly as they walked out onto the hallway.

"Dude, you sound like a chick! And besides I have a girlfriend, I don't care," said Wyatt rolling his eyes.

"Ok, but you'll be missing out, its going to be a great game."

"Look, I might call round it all depends. Well I have to go meet Chris, he needs a lift home."

"How is your loser brother?" asked Aaron.

"Why do you guys hate Chris so much?" asked Wyatt.

"Because he's such a reject, and besides what was with the other night?"

"Well, yeah but . . ." Wyatt paused; he heard his mother calling him and it sounded urgent. "Uh, I forgot something, I'll see you later," said Wyatt quickly running back into the changing rooms and orbing back to the manor.

"Just look at them, they're pathetic. Why do people treat running as a sport? They take it so seriously, it's funny!"

Chris grinned, "It's the breathing exercises that make me laugh. You should hear Wyatt the day before he has a race, it really cracks me up."

Chris and his friends were sitting on the bleachers. They had skipped last period to take part in one of their favourite past times: watching the track team practise, while generally mocking them for being what they called 'socially retarded.'

"I'm sorry, but you cannot be related to him!" exclaimed Katie, who was lying along the bench sunbathing with her sunglasses on. "You are just so different."

"Tell me about it," said Chris, who was sprawled out over the bench below her. "You should see that amount of trophies in our room. I'm going to have to start sleeping on the couch if I want to continue having air to breathe."

"Why Chris, are you inviting me into your room?" asked Tom, pretending to blush making the others laugh.

"I mean seriously, I think if he becomes any peppier he might try out for the cheerleading squad so he can cheer himself on," he joked.

"Wyatt in a skirt, now wouldn't that be a pretty picture," said Katie dreamily, a large smile appearing on her face.

"What?" she asked defensively when everyone looked around at her, amusement evident on their faces. "Just because I make fun of him doesn't mean I can't think he's hot!" she insisted, holding her hands up in defence.

"Is that why you keep inviting yourself round to my house for dinner?" asked Chris with mock hurt.

"Maybe," she said, her cheeks going slightly pink. He raised his eyebrows at her questioningly.

"Shut up!" she said hitting him playfully on the shoulder. His eyes lit up as he began to tickle her, grinning when she screamed her protests.

"Oh that's just great, one of my best friends picking my brother over me cause she thinks he would look good in a skirt!" he joked, still tickling her relentlessly.

"Hey, you wouldn't look half bad in a skirt yourself," she admitted laughing when Chris stopped tickling her, allowing her to sit up straight, pushing her sunglasses up onto her head so that they kept her long black hair out of her eyes.

Tom and Benji looked on with fake disgust. "Will you two get a room!" said Benji.

"Why?" asked Chris. "Do you want Tom all to yourself?" he joked.

They were laughing when Chris heard his mom call him. "Uh I'm late to meet Wyatt, and I can't miss my lift. See ya guys later!" he yelled as he ran off, hoping no one would notice he wasn't heading for the car park.

"Watch out!"

Just as Wyatt and Chris orbed into the manor, a fireball came hurtling towards them. Thanks to Paige's warning, they were both able to dive behind the sofa in time to avoid being hit.

They both stood up and quickly looked around them. Piper was frantically flicking through the Book of Shadows on the stairs as Paige was orbing the fireballs that were being sent her way back at the demon. This was not working as the demon appeared to have some sort of force field that was deflecting them, but being the only thing she could do to protect herself, she continued calling for the fireballs.

Instinctively Chris waved his arm and sent the demon flying across the living room and into the cabinet. Getting up quickly, the demon produced an athame, which he flung at Chris. It stopped inches from Chris' face as Piper froze it giving out a small yelp. Angry, Piper turned towards the demon and blew him up as Chris lifted the athame out of the air.

"Quickly, to the attic before he materialises," Piper said lifting the book. Wyatt grabbed her hand and orbed them up to the attic and Chris and Paige followed them.

"Where's Phoebe?" asked Chris when they got there.

"Leo is away to get her, she's at work," Paige explained.

"What the hell is that and why don't you freeze him?" Wyatt asked Piper.

"He fights through the freeze after like two seconds and I'm still working on it," said Piper, still going through the pages of the book. Wyatt took the athame of Chris and studied it. "Looks like it belongs to an upper level demon," he said.

"Ah ha!" she exclaimed triumphantly. "Found him! He's an upper level demon . . ."

"Told ya," said Wyatt.

Piper glared at him and continued reading from the book. ". . . called Jonah He can throw fireballs and has a force field which can deflect powers with the ability to vanquish."

"Noticed that," said Paige.

"Is there a spell?" asked Wyatt.

"Just took disable his force field but even that's a power of three one which needs a potion to work but it's simple enough so." Piper was interrupted as Jonah shimmered into the room and threw a fireball at them. Wyatt moved his hand and put up his own shield to protect them all.

Once again Chris flung him across the room. "As my power appears to be the only one that it working against him right now, me and Wyatt will hold him off, you two make the potion and be ready to say the spell when Phoebe gets here," said Chris moving his hand again and sending a near by lamp crashing into him.

Wyatt threw the athame at the demon, who was already standing up again. Jonah grinned and caught it.

"Nice," admitted Chris who was impressed. This didn't last very long as the athame came flying back towards him. This time Wyatt froze it as Piper called for Leo again. "Hurry up! We need you now!"

Trying to stall, Wyatt squinted, causing him to erupt in flames and explode but this time the demon reformed faster. "Dad! You and Aunt Phoebe better get your respective asses over here now!" warned Wyatt, taking a few steps back as Chris made Jonah's feet come out from underneath him, causing him to fall on his bottom.

Suddenly, a stream of blue and white lights came into the room and as Phoebe and Leo appeared. "Sorry," said Phoebe. "I was . . ."

"Vanquish now, make apologies later," demanded Piper as Chris deflected a fireball that was heading towards Wyatt back at the demon who's shield stopped it.

Phoebe rushed over to the book and joined her sisters as they joined hands and began reciting the vanquishing spell in unison.

"With this spell we weaken you, Deflect our powers you can no longer do, Now longer will you be able to shield, As we now disable your force field."

Piper tossed Wyatt the potion who flung it at the demon. Jonah growled with rage and flung a fireball at the sisters.

"Fireball," yelled Paige. As the fireball reappeared in her hand, she smiled. "Buh bye," she said, smiling sweetly as she threw it back at him.

"No!" yelled the demon as he erupted into flames and vanished.

"Oh, sure," said Chris sarcastically. "We do all the dirty work and you get to vanquish him, that's fair! I could have quite easily sent that fireball back at him and I would have done it with a better remark than 'buh bye'!" he yelled.

"Well be quicker next time," said Paige sticking her tongue out at her youngest nephew.

"Ok," said Piper clapping enthusiastically, "Good vanquish everyone."

"Yeah, good and simple," said Phoebe.

Everyone turned to look at her and she shifted uncomfortably in her place.

"Oh easy for you to say," said Wyatt. "Chris and I had been fighting him of for ages before you finally decided to join us."

"Hey Piper and I had been at it for a good few minutes before you two orbed in!"

"And look at how well you were doing," said Chris sarcastically clapping his hands.

"Excuse me!" said Paige offended. "Exactly who are the charmed ones here? You get cheekier every day mister. Honestly the youth of today!" she joked.

Chris grinned at his aunt, knowing she hadn't been much better when she was sixteen.

"Anyway, why did it take you two so long?" Piper asked Phoebe and Leo.

"I was in a very important meeting and Sara wouldn't let Leo in to get me," explained Phoebe. "Are the girls not home from school yet?" she asked.

As if on cue Patricia and Polly orbed into the attic. "What'd we miss?" asked Polly, letting go of her cousin's hand.

"Oh nothing, just us nearly being killed because your mother was in a meeting," said Chris dismissively.

"Oh and I suppose you held that nasty demon of all by yourself oh-wonderful one," quipped Patricia.

"You are far too sarcastic for a fourteen year old, you know that?" said Chris smiling.

"I guess she's just spent too much time with you," said Piper.

"Hey, don't say it like it's a bad thing!" protested Chris.

"Don't worry it's not," said Patricia, smiling at her big brother. "I owe you big time, it was kinda like teaching me the ways of the world. After all sarcasm is a very useful tool in today's pessimistic society," she informed him.

"Trish, don't use big words he doesn't understand," said Wyatt, causing Chris to give him the good old one finger salute.

"Where's Petulia?" asked Paige. "Why isn't she with you?"

"She said she'd orb in later. She had to stay behind and talk to her English teacher about a late assignment or something," said Polly.

"Oh for God's sake, how many times have I told her not to orb by herself?" exclaimed Paige waving her arms around. "She is not nearly careful enough to not be seen!"

"Oh she'll be fine!" ensured Phoebe.

"Ok, dinner will be ready in about an hour or so, so clear out of the attic every one," said Piper, leading them all downstairs.

They all left except Chris and Wyatt who stayed to clean up some of the mess they knew they'd be made to clean up at some point.

"Ugh I'm going to have to orb back for my car later," said Wyatt, using a dustpan and brush to pick up the shards of glass from the broken potion bottle.

"Yeah, hey can you cover for me later? I'm going out and I'll probably not be back to way after my curfew," said Chris.

"Just for a change then?" asked Wyatt.

Chris grinned sheepishly. "It's just that mom waited up and caught me orbing in last time and well . . . I really don't wanted to be grounded again. It forces me to climb up the trellis and in through the bedroom window and that's not very safe."

"Oh yes cause you are so often concerned with safety," joked Wyatt.

"Hey, I'm the sarcastic one, remember?" said Chris. "Please Wyatt, I really hate not being able to orb. I mean why can't we just be grounded like normal kids? I hate walking," said Chris grumpily, sitting down on the old sofa in the attic.

"Where exactly do you walk to?" asked Wyatt, amused. "When you are not scamming lifts of me you are skating about. The furthest you ever walk is down to Katie's or Tom's house !Not to mention how often you risk exposure by orbing everywhere. I mean honestly, Aunt Paige complains about Petulia's complete disregard for stealth when it comes to orbing but if they knew about you, they'd hit the roof. You should really be more careful Chris."

"Uh, ok mom," said Chris. "But will you just think of something so that she doesn't wait up?"

"Fine, but you owe me. Especially after the other night, I had to talk my friends out of the drive by they were planning to get you guys," he joked. "But those guys don't mess around Chris, they could inflict some serious damage."

"Oh I'm shaking in my little converse boots," said Chris.

"Chris! You started a fight with one of my best friends, that's so not cool dude. Especially when I'm not there to bail you out."

"I do not need you to 'bail me out.' Besides, what did you want me to do?"

"Well let's see not punching him in the first place would have been a start!"

"I couldn't help myself, he's a jackass and he deserved it."

"What exactly happened anyway? Brad said that you were just walking past and then for no reason you turned round and hit him."

"Oh and you believed that?" asked Chris getting angry. "Why are you going on at me? I'm your brother for God's sake, you are supposed to stick up for me!"

"Sorry," said Wyatt, sitting down beside him. "It's just that it's kind of hard always having to play referee between my friends and my brother. Do you have any idea how much easier it would be if we were in the same social circles?"

"Yeah," said Chris. "It's a shame I'm not socially retarded."

"Hey!" said Wyatt hitting his brother. "So really what happened?"

"Well we had been at this party and Tom was pretty wasted so we were walking him home trying to get him sobered up and make sure he didn't do anything stupid when we passed all your asshole friends. They started whistling and stuff at Katie so she gave them the finger. They couldn't believe that she wasn't swooning all over them so they started yelling insults at her so I punched him. Simple as that. But oh no they had to go and start a fight. It's a good thing Benji dragged me of him when he did," smirked Chris.

"You little troublemaker you," said Wyatt ruffling his hair.

"Stop that!" yelled Chris. "Oh and don't tell mom I was in another fight, she just might kill me this time."

"Seeing as that is an entirely possible scenario, consider my lips sealed."

"I'm sorry I beat up your friend," said Chris.

"It's ok, you did what you had to do," said Wyatt.

"It's just that what he said really wound me up and no one insults my Kate and gets away with it, it doesn't matter if they are someone I'd like to punch anyway or not" said Chris seriously.

"Your Kate?" asked Wyatt teasing his little brother. "You know mom thinks that you have a crush on her because you keep inviting her round to dinner and I'm beginning to agree with her."

"As if," said Chris rolling his eyes. "You can be so immature, I mean unless I'm wrong and we actually are eleven."

"Sure, sure, dismiss it with a joke," said Wyatt not believing him for a second. "But it's ok about Brad. He can be a bit jerkish at times, especially when it comes to hot girls."

"Oh, so you think Katie's hot? Interesting, but surely I'm the Halliwell that's lusting after her?" said Chris, enjoying turning it around on his brother.

"Now who's being immature? It was a general statement," insisted Wyatt.

"Well that's a shame, cause she told me today that she wouldn't mind seeing you in a skirt," said Chris, getting up and patting his brother on the back before leaving the room.

"She did?" asked Wyatt hopefully. "Hey wait!" he called after Chris. "Why would I be wearing a skirt?" he yelled running out of the room after him.

A/N: ok so that was just me setting things up and stuff and getting the whole brother bond established between Wyatt and Chris, and showing what they are like as teenagers. There's more of that in the next chapter too but there are more characters introduced as well before the main plot begins to develop though there is some of that in the next chapter as well. God I talk a lot. But please review! Oh and just to clear things up:

Patricia is Piper and Leo's daughter and therefore Chris and Wyatt's little sister who is 14.

Polly is Phoebe's and is like 12.

Petulia, who hasn't appeared yet, is Paige's daughter and is 11.

I don't mind repeating myself, (and besides 3rd times a charm!) Please review!
