Chapter 4: Though I Am Silent

A light flashed, blinding everyone in the room. While everyone tried to clear the spots that danced in front of their eyes, a red energy ball hit Chris in the chest. It knocked the wind out of him and he hit the floor with a thud.

"Chris!" Phoebe yelled moving toward him, but she was held back by an invisible force. Laughing, a voice boomed threw out the room.

" How dare you defy me and lock me in the wastelands? You thought you could just get off easy right?" The voice yelled. Chris tried to speak, but it stung like hell. It felt like his vocal cords had been ripped out. The demon laughed and Chris glared at him, trying to reply.

" Cat got your tongue Christopher? Or worse your ability to speak." Chris looked at the demon, trying to stay calm. On the outside he looked really freaking calm, when really freaking out on the inside. He got up, summoned something to defend himself with and Chris inched forward as if to attack, his eyes turning a darker shade of green. The demon just smiled and uttered words in a strange language before disappearing.

" Seyla, T'is apal'ee flesca."

A light surrounded Chris and then pulled away from his body quickly. The light was sucked into the demon who shimmered away quickly. Chris' body hit the floor again with a louder thud. Piper moved forward after the demon got away. In finding out that the invisible force that was holding them back was now gone, Piper, Phoebe, Paige and Leo ran over to Chris and tried to wake him.

" Oh no…." Leo muttered, trying to heal Chris, it did not work.

" Leo why isn't it working." Piper screamed at Leo and all Leo could do was look up at her and say,

" You remember how I have to connect with the person. I just can't connect with him."

" Why?" Piper questioned forcefully.

" He has no soul."

-23 Years Into the Future-

' Why the hell am I doing this, I should be trying to find a way into the past.' Wyatt thought growling as he looked at the questions once again. He felt a sharp pain in his chest as a single question showed up in the book.

" What is the most horrible way to die?" This was not one of the questions from before at all. Wyatt took up a quill and dipped it into the ink before writing.

' Chris, you said the answer lies in the questions I already had.' –Wyatt.

Something wrote back, but it wasn't Chris.

' Answer the question, it happened in 1659, Wyatt or don't you remember.'

" Chris what are you talking about?" Asked Wyatt out loud as a light shined from his bookcase. It was the small black leather-bound journal of Christopher Halliwell of 1659. Wyatt cautiously went over to the bookcase and pulled it out and went back to the book of shadows and saw that who ever this was left one last note.

' Read this diary and find out the truth young Wyatt.'

The most horrible possible death was something I was destined to get in the next few days, I've seen it and the seer has even come to me about my death. My life has turned for the worst since I was taken from my brother on the ship. I haven't seen him in years to come and I am to die with out seeing for one last time. The heartless bastard I have become he wouldn't want to see that anyway. I am to die with out my soul, which leads me to reincarnation if my soul breaks free from the demon that holds it.

I now know witches are real, good and evil and some posing as human, normal, some turned over to the dark side.

'My soul is gone and I need saving, will anyone hear my plead for help as long as I live.' I sang dully around the underworld. 'Who will sing my song when I am silent.'

" Holy shit!" Wyatt screamed as he moved back over to the desk in which the Book of Shadows lay.

' Chris, you better tell me what the hell is going on now! Is this a fucking joke?'- Wyatt, he wrote into the book as no one wrote back. He had just finished the whole diary and was shocked that his brother's past life was the first source of all evil. Well, he was forced into it, but it was to save his life. Where was his past life and why didn't he save Christopher?

' Chris!' Wyatt wrote, ' Answer me damn it!' Wyatt's frustration grew. He needed to know if Chris was all right. Suddenly a shining white portal showed in front of him and it bellowed.

" Prove your worthy."

-23 Years Into the Past-

Piper drew Chris closer to her as Leo tried to heal him again on her command until Leo just lost it.

" Piper, there is nothing to heal. I've tried, my god and it's not working." They had never seen Leo this angry, worried, or sad.

" I don't know why it's not working." Leo let a tear slid down his face he couldn't believe he let someone harm his newly found baby, even if he was 23 years from the future. He tried once more as Paige's voice pulled him back,

" He's not dead, we can still save him. Try to get his soul back you know."

" But how?" Questioned Piper as Phoebe and Leo's head snapped up. Another flash encircled the room as Piper drew Chris' body closer to her as a figure came out of the light. It was a man.

" Who the hell..." Paige started, while Phoebe's jaw dropped.

" It worked."

" Who are you?" Piper asked, while Paige chuckled as Phoebe smiled.

" Not the time now, I've got to save him let me guess he gave you an empath blocking potion?" The man asked asked as Phoebe nodded.

" Perfect plan, but last time you grounded him for it." The man asked letting a bit of the future slip out as Phoebe smiled.

" Wyatt?" Leo questioned, but Wyatt only smiled in response.

" Not now, it took me awhile to get here. I had a bit of reading to do." Wyatt replied as he saw the book next to his mother. " Seems like you did too."

" We didn't finish it." Paige replied aand Wyatt nodded, muttering to them.

" It ain't no happy ending."

-Chris' Pov-

" Where am I? Why do I feel so empty here? I have to get back to everyone, but how?" I muttered as I looked around. On one side I saw fields of flowers and just a happy place to roam, but on the otherside I saw a dark deserted forest with out any leaves on the trees. Just vines and rotten wood all around.

" Hello? Anyone here?" I asked, no one answered. " Hello?"

" Chris? What are you doing here?" A voice came from behind him. It was from the happy place to go. I turned to see my mother looking at me.

" I don't know…. Do you?" I asked her wanting to take a step towards her.

" No I don't, your not suppose to be here for a really long time." Mom answered as I nodded. " I've been watching you and I'm proud of you Peanut."

" It wasn't enough, mom. It wasn't. " I replied to her as she came over to me. " Where are we?"

" Well this is the spirit realm, well, redone actually." Mom laughed as she pulled me over to the good side. " Everyone wants to see you."

" Really" I asked as she took me to them.

-Back at the Manor-

Wyatt looked over to his brother body and saw how it just laid there. They had to be quick, and connect with his soul otherwise they will lose him forever and he couldn't have that. Chris was all he had left.

" Wyatt?" Phoebe asked as he looked to her and put the last ingredient into the potion as a puff of smoke indicated that it was done.

" So what's the plan exactly again?" asked Paige as Wyatt slapped his hand to his face. Phoebe had to laugh.

" We have to connect with his soul and bring it back to us threw empathy. You see Chris is the only one who's controlled Advanced Empathy and Telepathy too. Don't know how Aunt Prue couldn't do it though, it only took Chris week and he was 3." Wyatt got off topic for a moment before he remembered,

" We have to go into the spirit realm and get him by using Empathy." Leo's head snapped up.

" That has never been done before, and is highly dangerous."

" That's what you said when I was 7 and took Chris with me to the spirit realm. Chris speaks to spirits, I still get jealous for that." Chuckled Wyatt as he motioned for all of them to drink their potions as they felt a pull behind their navel as their bodies fell to the floor and their souls disappeared.

-Spirit Realm-

They reappeared in the Spirit Realm and Wyatt looked around.

" Now what are you doing here?" A voice chuckled on the good side of the Realm.

" Well Melinda, I'm here to get Chris."

" Aunt Piper's with him, she lecturing him for all the things he's done through the years. She sees you and she'll go insane, your both not meant to be here for years to come."

" Well I'm not leaving without him." Wyatt smirked as Melinda laughed.

" Figures, you don't even come up here to say hi anymore and you demand for Chris back." Melinda huffed as Wyatt was still smirking. " Come along everyone."

Melinda pulled Wyatt and everyone else into the good side. They followed her only to stop short when they heard Piper's scolding as they saw figures in the fields of flowers.

" Get over it." Chris groaned to his mother as they then heard the laughing voices of Paige, Phoebe and Prue.

" See there with me on this." Chris announced as the elder version of Phoebe hugged Chris and spit her tongue at Piper. Paige went over on Piper's side as Prue stood in the middle.

" Prue you've got to pick." Piper whined as she looked at her sister.

" Make me and you'll see what happens" Prue said with her arms crossed.

" So no one wins. Man that really sucks." Wyatt said stepping forward. The future versions of the Charmed ones turned to Wyatt and the others.

" Oh my god." Piper said as she hugged Wyatt tightly. " You're not dead are you, cause let me tell you..."

" Mom! No...No, actually we've come to get Chris as you know it isn't his time." Wyatt stated as Piper nodded to that.

" You can't leave yet, I haven't lectured you yet." Piper crossed her arms as Chris came next to his mother.

" Yeah, she hasn't lectured you yet." Chris taunted his beg brother, eyes twinkling. That was something he hasn't seen in years and Wyatt was glad to see it.

" Well, it'll have to wait for awhile. At least till we save the world right." Wyatt smiled at Chris and held out his hand.

" You're delaying the inevitable. You're going to get the lecture sooner or later." Chris snickered as Wyatt rolled his eyes at his brother.

" I say later. I know I'll go deaf from it." Wyatt chuckled as Chris took his hand and the two brothers turned to their dead family.

" Later." They both said as Future Piper sighed and hugged them.

" See you soon boys and I don't mean here either."

" Well, I like them both here actually." A voice growled trying to get threw the good sides' barrier from evil.

" Get out of here, Quick!" Prue yelled running next to them. " We'll take care of them."

Piper stood next to her sister as Phoebe and Paige stood next to her.

" And here I thought it was a family reunion." Chris growled sarcastically as he sent the demon flying back into the evil side of the realm and it came back. " Don't you things just ever die!"

" Come on Chris, we've got to go." Wyatt said as he grabbed his brothers' hand and pulled him away from the fight.

Came to save one, found him at last
Bring us home, to the past.

They all read the spell quickly and soon they woke to find themselves back in their bodies. Wyatt got up quickly then went over to Chris gathering him into his arms. When Wyatt saw his brothers' eyes finally snap open, he pulled him closer.

" Wy…. I can't breathe." Chris gasped as Wyatt loosened his hug a bit, but only so much that Chris could breathe. The people from the past all looked at the brother's who were sharing a hug as if haven't in a long time.

" So did you mean what you said?" Chris mumbled still being held close to his brother. Wyatt had a confused expression on his face, so Chris continued. " About us saving the world."

" I think I said something like that." Wyatt replied smiling as Chris folded his arms as they all laughed at the pout Chris was giving Wyatt.
