Secrets Within

Chapter Ten: Conclusion of Mess

Chris and Wyatt sat together, talking lowly, and excitedly. Piper walked in. "What are you kids gibbering on about?" she asked, laughing.

"Well, mom, we thought that since we can't go to Magic School any more, we should probably stay here and create our own magic school. I mean yes, it will be a bit weird for Wyatt and I to grow up and be taught by ourselves, but there's no way to go back anyway, unless we want to kill ourselves, and it just wouldn't work if we went back.

"Oh Great!" she exclaimed. "I was wondering what you guys were going to do!"

"Yes, well," said Chris.

"Chris! We weren't going to tell them until your birthday!"

"Well that's only a few days away anyway"

"And you weren't supposed to tell them that either!"

"Well they knew it would be soon anyway."

"I suppose so."

"Why aren't you going back to your original time now anyway?" Piper asked

"Well, see, I was near really planning to anyway. I expected I would be dead by then, and wouldn't have to worry about it. But if I did go back to my own time, I wouldn't fit in anyway, because there'd be an alternate version of me there. The only one who can really go back to his proper time is Harry, because he might not exist in this time anyways now, but then he might. Thing is, I we go back, we will destroy the alternate versions of ourselves. Besides, we can do more good here. Pia, Patty and Phil are much too young to drop out of school, and they still go to magic school, so we can teach them, but we can't send them to public schools, because they ask for bothersome things like birth certificates, which we can't truthfully supply without exposing magic."

"Whoa, seems like you've been planning this for a long time." She said.

Chris and Wyatt looked at each other and quickly they said, "We have."

Five years later:

There was a small group gathered in the Haliwell living room. There was Harry, now Eight, Wyatt the younger, now seven, Chris the younger, now five, Penny the younger, four, Wyatt the older, Chris the older, Rosie, Penny the older, Pia, Patty and Phil, now seventeen, Piper, Leo, Paige, Jake Cleaner (Her husband), Phoebe, and Jason. The seventeen of them were gathered around a small portal, and Chris looked as though he was about to make an announcement.

"Okay, people! I have finally perfected our Magic School building. It is complete with our own security system, designed to keep those blasted elders away. First of all, the people entering must have Haliwell blood in them, or be accompanied by either me, or Minnie Me" Younger Chris screwed up his nose at this. "This is because if someone doesn't have Haliwell blood, they must have a Haliwell blooded demon, Cleaner, Whitelighter, and Witch. Seeing as only Chris and I have all those kind of powers, well, yes. Also I have to say that we may begin to get young recruits for the school, who are not trained as of yet, and help them to use their magic. Now with all the formalities done, lets go!" he exclaimed. One by one, he supervised the others as the jumped through the portal. Finally the only ones left were Leo, Jake, Jason, and Rosie.

"Grab my hands," he instructed. They did so, and he jumped through, closing the portal after him.

When they reappeared they were in a large house, which looked as if it had been warped from another century, from the future. When Chris the younger voiced this, Chris the older only smiled, and said "Technology moves along so fast, I'm glad that even though I never really finished school, I did do an advance technology course, even if I thought I'd never use it."

"So you mean that it's from the future?"

"Only a couple of years."

Phoebe was looking around, dazedly. Both Chris's were concerned Are you alright, Aunt Phoebe?"

"Just a little nauseous" she said. Jason grabbed her arm.

"Um, Chris, I hate to interrupt you showing us all this, but I think I should take Phoebe home."

"Yeah, that's okay, I know she'll be needing the rest." He said, grinning mischievously.

Jason looked at him strangely, before Chris waved his hand, and zapped him though. The triplets were looking extremely happy, and were trying hard not to laugh.

"Is there something we should know?" said Piper in the scolding tone she reserved for her sons.

"No. Future consequences" he said, slipping into old habit. Wyatt and the others nodded their heads.

"But you should know that now a question you've been asking for five years will be answered." Said the triplets.

"And what question will that be?" asked Paige curiously.

"Who the hell is Petal!" they exclaimed.

"Huh?" asked Leo, Jake, Wyatt the younger and Chris the Younger, while all the girls exclaimed suddenly.

"Oh My God! She's pregnant!" and started laughing, along with all the people in the wrong time.

"Yes, she is, so now that Petals okay, we can get on with the tour." Chris said, steering them all into another room.

"This room is for the Head of school," said Chris.

"What?" asked Paige. "It's decorated like a girl's room"

"It is." He grinned. "Paige, how do you feel about being the headmaster?"

"Good God Chris!" said Piper. "Why do you have to drop so many bombshells on us in one day?"

Both Chris's turned to each other and grinned. "It's just our way," they said in unison.
