The demon and the Whitelighter chapter 2
Okay it's four years later and Paige was discovered a year ago and so now Paige and Chris are half siblings and the charmed ones are half sister with Paige but Paige doesn't live at the manor she lives at the club at P3 and now Chris is 14.
Chapter two: The second encounter
It had been a year since Paige was introduced to the family and it was a month after that when it was discovered that she was the daughter of the whitelighter Sam which made her the older half sister of Chris. And then a month after that they visited Sam and he told them that the charmed ones mother Patty was Paige's mother and the charmed ones summoned their mother to ask her about it and she had confirmed it. Paige was their sister. And so Paige now had to adapt to having three older sisters and one baby brother. But she got used to them pretty fast. She had a special place for each of them in her heart.
Chris took classes at magic school in the morning and orbed home after school and either hung out or helped the charmed ones and his sister fight evil. But it was more the often that he was left at home because it was 'too dangerous' and that always annoyed Chris but he did as he was asked when they told him to stay home.
He would either flip through there book studying it out of boredom or he would go to his room lock the door and look through his mothers book. It was interesting the difference between evil magic and good magic. A good book of shadows had good spells in it. An evil book had evil spells in it. Chris could use any of those spells but he chose not to. The charmed ones weren't aware that he looked through it every once and a while. Paige would lecture him if she knew. The other charmed ones would demand that he get rid of it or try to destroy it. So he had told them that he had lost it a while ago. Actually he had said that he had given it to Cole. The demon he had met in a vision before he had seen the man for real. In his vision he and Cole were together. Chris found that strange. To know who he was suppose to be with before the other person knew. To know that he would love Cole before Cole even met him. That's why he couldn't let Cole raise him. He couldn't risk a parental bond forming because then Cole wouldn't be able to fall in love with him. And now at 14 Chris often dreamed of Cole. The charmed ones had destroyed the source but now there was a new source. A more powerful one. But he still had to be destroyed.
Chris found himself thinking about his birthday coming up. He would 15 soon. Not much would change. He would probably try to learn how to drive and maybe try to get a girlfriend. It was really hard to try and date someone when he already knew who he was suppose to be with. But that wouldn't happen for years yet. So Chris had to do something in the mean time. He would have to ask Phoebe how she handled knowing things before they were gonna happen. He had only had the one vision in his life. But he never had one again. It was more like a spoiler for his life. But how was he suppose to be with Cole when Cole was evil? Cole couldn't love him. Could he?
Two weeks after his birthday.
Chris was kidnapped by a demon that was trying to use him to get to the charmed ones.
Chris did the one thing he knew he shouldn't. He used his demonic powers to attack the demon at which point Cole immediately appeared and then he used his own powers and destroyed the demon.
Chris backed away as Cole came towards him "Do you know how long I've been waiting for you to use your powers again? I chose to track you by your powers but you never use your powers. You've grown some." Cole said taking in the boys height and looking him up and down once.
"So where's the witches." Cole asked.
"You might wanna get out of here before they come and find me. That demon took me so the sisters are probably looking for me and going nuts trying to find me. You should go." Chris said.
Cole smirked "Really? You think it's just that easy? You can't just tell me to leave and be done with it. I'm the new source kid. Can't you sense it with your demon half?" Cole asked.
Chris could in fact sense it. "I don't want this. You need to go before they get here. I have to find a way to help you." Chris said.
"Why do you keep acting so strange around me? What is it that your not telling me boy? Huh?" Cole asked coming closer.
Chris was now trapped against the wall and Cole was so close that they could have kissed. "What did you see about me when you were a child? What are you hiding from me?" Cole asked becoming annoyed.
Chris gulped "I can't tell you." he said.
The seer shimmer in then. "What can't you tell me?" Cole asked.
"He is your soul mate." The seer said. Cole turned to her "The two of you are meant to be together. I have seen it." she said.
Cole turned looked back at Chris something between shock and disbelief in his eyes and Chris orbed away before Cole could stop him.
Chris orbed back to the manner. " Chris. Thank god. Where were you? How did you get away?" Paige asked after she hugged him.
"Uh. I may have been bad." Chris said.
"Bad? What do you mean bad?" Prue asked nervous.
"Uh. I used my demonic powers." Chris said.
"What! Why?" Paige raised her voice.
"I used them on the demon! He was attacking me and I just attacked back. My demonic powers were more help anyways. I'm okay. I'm still good. I just used my demonic powers to kill the demon." Chris said in his defense.
Paige sighed "Okay well at least you used them to fight evil. But just so were clear NO demonic powers EVER unless it's a case like today and you are alone and in danger." Paige said firmly.
Chris nodded "Yeah. I totally understand." Chris said.
"Good. Now I think you should go up to your room." Paige said and Chris groaned but went up to his room to sulk and he shut his door an locked it and then he felt himself being pulled away.
He found himself in the underworld and Cole sat in a chair and the seer was by his side.
"We need to have a little talk." Cole said.
Chris took a step back "Why?" he asked nervous.
"Why? Why? Because you can't just keep something like that from me and then run away when I find out about it that's why!" Cole said angry.
"I can't control what I saw. I'm sorry if you don't like it. It was just a vision. We don't have to be like that if it's not what you want." Chris said
"Not what I want? You think I don't like the idea? That's not what I said kid. What I said was that I don't like that you hid it from me. You should have told me what you saw. That's why you wanted to go with them isn't it? Because you saw us together in the future and you didn't want to change that by letting me raise you." Cole said knowingly.
"Yes. But Paige is my half sister. We have the same father. So it's a good thing I did go with them. I found out that there family. In a way." Chris said.
Cole leaned back comfy in his chair "How old are you?" Cole asked "15?"'
"Yes. I just turned 15." Chris said.
Cole seemed to think about that. Then said "He's not ready." he said to the seer. then stood up.
"Your just a boy. Your young. Too young for that vision to happen yet. I'll wait. You can go back to the manor. But when I call for you you'd better come." Cole said and Chris orbed back to his room wondering what that meant.
When he called for him? The source disappeared from the radar after that.
It was three years later when Cole called him.

The Demon and the Whitelighter
This is the story of how they got together. This is based in an AU world where Chris isn't from the future and he isn't the son of Leo and Piper. He is still half Witch and Half White lighter. Cole never had a relationship with Phoebe and Prue doesn't die. And of course Cole falls for Chris. But the Charmed ones are not the main story line here. So yeah a lot was changed. That's why it's an AU. Paige comes in later but again Prue is still alive and doesn't die. Sam is also Chris's father so he is Paige's half brother. If you don't like any of that then don't read this.
Chapter One: The first encounter.
Chris had gotten close to the charmed ones and their whitelighter Leo. They believed that he was a Whitelighter but in truth he was only half whitelighter. His mother had been a witch but she was also half demon. A Phoenix. And his father had been a whitelighter named Sam that later fell from grace after falling in love and losing one of his charges. Sam had tried to take care of Baby Chris but soon his mother Bianca came and stole him. She took care of him most of his life until he turned 10 and the charmed ones came to vanquish her evil ass. He had been scared that they would hurt him too and that was the first time he orbed.
Leo sensed he was in the bed room and orbed to him.
"Hey. We won't hurt you kid. I'm sorry you had to see that. We didn't know she had a kid. Your half Whitelighter. I can feel it. You only a quarter demon in you." Leo said.
"I know. Mom hated that I was good. She's gone now isn't she? Who will teach me how to use my powers?" Chris asked sadly.
"Do you know your father's name?" Leo asked.
"Sam. I think." Chris said and Leo nodded "I know who he is. I'll take you to your father and he can help you learn to use your powers." Leo said.
Chris went over to his closet and took out his mother evil book of spells. Leo stiffened slightly. "Chris you don't need that. You can leave that here. That's an evil book." Leo said.
"I know. I won't use it. I promise. But it was hers. And It's all she left me. I can't leave it here for others to steal." Chris said tears filling his eyes and the charmed ones came in then.
"God I feel horrible." Piper stated.
"You remember your mom's old whitelighter Sam? Well he apparently had an affair with Miss Bianca out there and this is his son. That's why he can orb. His father was a full whitelighter when he was born. And that Phoenix only recently turned evil again. So he has the full potential to be good. He doesn't even have the mark of a phoenix." Leo said.
"yes I do." Chris said defensively and raised his shirt with one hand while pulled down his pants slightly with the other to show them his mark on his right hip.
"Well that's an odd place for it. I've never seen the mark anywhere but on the arm." Leo said a little fascinated.
"So what do we do with him?" Piper asked.
"I'm taking him to Sam and Sam can take care of him." Leo said.
"Uh. Not to be difficult but how exactly is Sam gonna take care of a child when he can barely remember to take care of himself? He was a mess the last time we saw him. He can't take care of a child." Prue said knowingly.
"Well I think we should give him a chance before we discuss any other courses of action." Leo said determined and knowing that look in Prue's eye.
"Fine. But when I'm right and I will be....Tell Sam that we'll take care of everything." Prue said thinking of adopting the boy into the family.
Leo orbed away with the boy and the the boy kept hold of the book.
Phoebe confronted her sister then "Yeah. Hi remember us? Do we get a say in this?" Phoebe asked.
"Of Course. But Phoebe you heard Leo. That boy has the potential to be really good. And with the right people raising him he will be good. But if the wrong people raise him he could give in to the small part of him that's evil. I hate to say it but I think we should talk to Cole." Prue said. Cole was their demon consultant.
They often summoned him if they wanted information about demons and Cole was usually helpful. Annoyed but helpful. Part of the reason they didn't go after him was because they needed him. And they knew they needed him. He knew it too. And in return for his helpful information they didn't vanquish him.
Phoebe moaned in annoyance but knew her sister was right.
The charmed ones went back home finding Leo and Chris already there.
"So what happened?" Prue asked knowingly.
Leo rolled his eyes at her "Sam is still in no place to raise a child." Leo said.
"Uh huh. See? I told you." Prue said and then they summoned Cole.
Cole found himself in a crystal cage and saw them "We have got to stop meeting like this." he said then saw the little boy. "Cute kid. Where'd you get him?" Cole asked.
"Cole we have a question about children who aren't fully demon." Prue said.
Cole snorted "Okay." he said with a smirk.
"If a child is half whitelighter and half phoenix what exactly does that mean?" Prue asked.
Cole looked at the boy "It means I sincerally hope you really killed the phoenix parent other wise your dead." Cole said looking at the kid "Hey baby boy, did they blow mommy up? Or did they throw a potion at her?" Cole asked him his tone kind.
Prue was surprised at his tone. He apparently knew a thing of two about children. "Piper blew her up. Why does that matter?" Prue asked.
Cole snorted again "Because that means she's not dead. That means you just kidnapped her child and she's gonna be really pissy. Demonic mothers are the worst." Cole said with a laugh.
Leo looked at the boy "That must be why he hasn't cried yet. She's not really dead. Is that why you took the book?" Leo asked him.
"I didn't want mommy to use it. I don't like it when she's bad." Chris said honestly.
"Okay we need to make a potion then and fast. Leo we'll need you here. Cole you have kid duty. Is the phoenix shows up don't let her take him." Prue said seriously.
"What? Why did I get roped into this?" Cole asked.
"Because for one he seems to like you. And you seem to know a thing or two about kids. And for three you have demonic powers you can use against her if she shows up. She'll come after us first. She won't know you have him. So take him somewhere. But not the the underworld. He needs to be somewhere safe. She's not getting him." Prue said.
Cole rolled his eyes and the crystals were moved then Prue said "Honey this is Cole. He'll protect you okay? We'll come get you when we're done here." Prue said.
"Are you gonna kill mommy?" Chris asked.
Prue bit her lip then told him the truth "Chris we're gonna make sure she can't hurt anyone anymore. Okay?" Prue said and he nodded "Okay." Chris said then he moved sadly over to Cole held his hand out to him Cole grabbed his hand and shimmered away to his appartment.
At the appartment Cole stood guard over the boy even though he really didn't want to he figured that at least it was something to do.
"So your half Phoenix? And half Whitelighter? That's an odd mix. Look. Kid, those witches. There good witches. I can already see where Prue's going with this. She wants to raise you to be good like they are. But I think you should have a say in that. You have the right to chose. Just like everyone else. So what do you want? Do you want to be good? Do you want to be like you mommy? I think that you should try both and see what you like best." Cole offered his advice.
Chris frowned at him "I don't like hurting people. I did it lots of times. I didn't like it. I like to help. Mommy gets mad when I help." Chris said.
Cole thought about that "What's your mommies name?" Cole asked.
"Bianca. I think." Chris said.
Cole raised his brows "Bianca. I know her. Actually I know her really well." Cole laughed. He had slept with her twice. About 15 years ago. This little boy was only ten so he knew he wasn't his son.
"What's your name?" Cole asked.
"Chris." Chris said.
"Chris. Cute. I guess." Cole said then added "Think I prefer baby boy."
Chris scowled "I'm not a baby." he pouted.
Cole laughed at that.
About an hour later Leo and Prue orbed in. "It's done." Prue said.
Cole glanced over at the boy. "You know Prue I've been thinking. And I think the boy would be better off with me." Cole said.
"You? Your evil. You can't raise a whitelighter. Half of him is Whitelighter that means half of him is purely good. That means he's ours. You can't teach him how to use his good powers." Prue said.
"Oh I could. I wouldn't. But I could. I think he should get a say in who gets to raise him. I'm a man. While you are gonna take him to a house ruled by woman. He's gonna be surrounded by you three and all the danger that comes with that every day if you take him." Cole said.
"It's no different then his mother. Except that we're good and can help him learn to use his powers for good." Prue said.
"I still say he should get to chose." Cole said.
"Oh yeah Cole let's let the ten year old decide what's best for him. He's a little boy Cole. No offense honey." Prue said the last part as she looked at Chris.
"It's okay. Mommy would have said the same thing. I don't get to chose what's best for me." Chris said.
"Okay let's go kid." Prue said holding out her hand/.
"Chris. His name is Chris. Did you even ask what his name was?" Cole asked.
"No been kinda busy Cole. Come on Chris." Prue said.
Chris got up from the couch but Cole gripped his shoulder stopping him "Wait." he told the boy and an energy ball formed in his hand "Like I said. He has a right to chose." Cole said.
"No!" Chris yelled not wanting Cole to throw the ball and hurt Prue he lunged at Cole and orbed them away.
They were in the woods and the energy ball had died in Cole's hand when Chris had lunged at him because he didn't want to hurt the child.
He shook the boy "What the hell where you thinking! you could have been hurt!" Cole yelled at him '
Chris sniffed and back away a step "I don't like seeing people hurt." Chris whined.
Cole sighed "I'm sorry. Okay? I didn't mean to yell. You don't have to be scared. I won't hurt you. I'll never hurt you." Cole vowed.
"I know. I saw." Chris said.
"You saw what?" Cole asked.
"That you will never hurt me." Chris said then added "I saw it when I was little." he said.
Cole thought about that. The boy must have had a vision.
"I don't want you to hurt them. I like you. I don't want them to hurt you either. Like they did to mommy. I have to go. I want to be good. And They can help me be good. Don't come after me. Not yet. It's not time yet." Chris said and that last part made no sense to Cole.
Cole tried to stop him but Chris formed his own ball on energy in his hand and threw it at Cole it was low voltage and so when it hit it only knocked Cole down and didn't hurt him. "I'll see you again." Chris said and then orbed away.
Cole glared at the spot where the little boy used to be. "Yes you will little boy." Cole vowed and then went on his way.

Cole rolled his eyes and the crystals were moved then Prue said "Honey this is Cole. He'll protect you okay? We'll come get you when we're done here." Prue said.
"Are you gonna kill mommy?" Chris asked.
Prue bit her lip then told him the truth "Chris we're gonna make sure she can't hurt anyone anymore. Okay?" Prue said and he nodded "Okay." Chris said then he moved sadly over to Cole held his hand out to him Cole grabbed his hand and shimmered away to his appartment.
At the appartment Cole stood guard over the boy even though he really didn't want to he figured that at least it was something to do.
"So your half Phoenix? And half Whitelighter? That's an odd mix. Look. Kid, those witches. There good witches. I can already see where Prue's going with this. She wants to raise you to be good like they are. But I think you should have a say in that. You have the right to chose. Just like everyone else. So what do you want? Do you want to be good? Do you want to be like you mommy? I think that you should try both and see what you like best." Cole offered his advice.
Chris frowned at him "I don't like hurting people. I did it lots of times. I didn't like it. I like to help. Mommy gets mad when I help." Chris said.
Cole thought about that "What's your mommies name?" Cole asked.
"Bianca. I think." Chris said.
Cole raised his brows "Bianca. I know her. Actually I know her really well." Cole laughed. He had slept with her twice. About 15 years ago. This little boy was only ten so he knew he wasn't his son.
"What's your name?" Cole asked.
"Chris." Chris said.
"Chris. Cute. I guess." Cole said then added "Think I prefer baby boy."
Chris scowled "I'm not a baby." he pouted.
Cole laughed at that.
About an hour later Leo and Prue orbed in. "It's done." Prue said.
Cole glanced over at the boy. "You know Prue I've been thinking. And I think the boy would be better off with me." Cole said.
"You? Your evil. You can't raise a whitelighter. Half of him is Whitelighter that means half of him is purely good. That means he's ours. You can't teach him how to use his good powers." Prue said.
"Oh I could. I wouldn't. But I could. I think he should get a say in who gets to raise him. I'm a man. While you are gonna take him to a house ruled by woman. He's gonna be surrounded by you three and all the danger that comes with that every day if you take him." Cole said.
"It's no different then his mother. Except that we're good and can help him learn to use his powers for good." Prue said.
"I still say he should get to chose." Cole said.
"Oh yeah Cole let's let the ten year old decide what's best for him. He's a little boy Cole. No offense honey." Prue said the last part as she looked at Chris.
"It's okay. Mommy would have said the same thing. I don't get to chose what's best for me." Chris said.
"Okay let's go kid." Prue said holding out her hand/.
"Chris. His name is Chris. Did you even ask what his name was?" Cole asked.
"No been kinda busy Cole. Come on Chris." Prue said.
Chris got up from the couch but Cole gripped his shoulder stopping him "Wait." he told the boy and an energy ball formed in his hand "Like I said. He has a right to chose." Cole said.
"No!" Chris yelled not wanting Cole to throw the ball and hurt Prue he lunged at Cole and orbed them away.
They were in the woods and the energy ball had died in Cole's hand when Chris had lunged at him because he didn't want to hurt the child.
He shook the boy "What the hell where you thinking! you could have been hurt!" Cole yelled at him '
Chris sniffed and back away a step "I don't like seeing people hurt." Chris whined.
Cole sighed "I'm sorry. Okay? I didn't mean to yell. You don't have to be scared. I won't hurt you. I'll never hurt you." Cole vowed.
"I know. I saw." Chris said.
"You saw what?" Cole asked.
"That you will never hurt me." Chris said then added "I saw it when I was little." he said.
Cole thought about that. The boy must have had a vision.
"I don't want you to hurt them. I like you. I don't want them to hurt you either. Like they did to mommy. I have to go. I want to be good. And They can help me be good. Don't come after me. Not yet. It's not time yet." Chris said and that last part made no sense to Cole.
Cole tried to stop him but Chris formed his own ball on energy in his hand and threw it at Cole it was low voltage and so when it hit it only knocked Cole down and didn't hurt him. "I'll see you again." Chris said and then orbed away.
Cole glared at the spot where the little boy used to be. "Yes you will little boy." Cole vowed and then went on his way.
