Animosity of Affinity

[italiannna]

Chris was laying down on his bed. His eyes were closed and he was trying to fall asleep. His mind was racing everywhere.... Cherish! Bianca! Cherish! Bianca!

Chris bolted up.... Was that dream? That sure didn't help any... Chris sat up and wondered when the spell was going to work. His thoughts were disturbed when he heard a knock on his door. He got up and answered the door. It was Melinda.

"Hey Mel..."

[RP Muse]

“Hey, well Cherish and I ordered some pizza and wings and I know you wanted to take a nap but, I just wanted to make sure if you wanted any or not? She said with a shrug figuring she was wasting her time asking but she always wanted to make sure.

[italiannna]

Chris smiled and looked down.... The pizza sounded really good right now... but he was still tired and he didn't want to do anything until the spell did what it was supposed to do.

"I'm still kinda tired Mel... Sorry... Just save a piece for me... I just wanna stay here until this spell plays out."

[AjentAnjel :)]

Cherish waited while Mel went in to Chris and asked if he wanted some pizza too. She wasn't eavesdropping but she heard them mention a spell again. It was starting to get hard to push to the back of her mind.

[RP Muse]

Melinda sighed slightly and looked at Chris. “Chris, I know you are tired, but you can’t hide in here avoiding Cherish and Bianca until the spell gives you an answer, which could be two days from now. Look all I’m saying is don’t stay in here like a hermit crab, the spell might take time. I know you Chris and knowing you would stay in here a month if it took that long, I don’t many humans who can live a month with out food or water.” She said trying to joke around a bit. “Okay well if you change your mind you know where to find us” She said then quietly closed the door behind her. Melinda went back in the other room and looked over at Cherish. “Never mind he is going to live in his bedroom for now on” She said shaking her head. Chris could be so stubborn sometimes.

[AjentAnjel :)]

Cherish was still confused, but she just let it go, maybe the whitelighter baby that was growing inside of her was turning her into a passive person. "I hope the pizza doesn't take long, I am starving!" Cherish said as she started walking around the apartment picking up some of the rubble lying around. "Do you think he really loves her?"

[RP Muse]

“Umm what?” Melinda said caught of guard at Cherishes words. She wasn’t sure if she was talking to her or thinking out loud. Melinda knew what she was talking about. She knew it was about Chris loving Bianca and she really did not want to answer that question, but knew Cherish was going to repeat her question if it was intended to be asked.

[Assassin Witch]

That wasn't what he was expeceting. Another attack, and at the Manor. His magic was lacking on him. Wyatt took a deep breath and sat on the bed to calm himself down. He wasn't going to get mad...right now. He knew that Mona got scared when he lost his temper. He'd save that for tomorrow. Today, they were going to enjoy their free day. "Okay...I'm glad you both are alright. I'll deal with this situation tomorrow and I'll step up the house security. If demons can enter, I don't want to take the chance that Chris and Melinda can."

[italiannna]

Chris sighed when his sister left. He used his telekinesis to close the door. He then went back to his bed and laid back down. He crossed his arms behind his head and looked up. Mel was right, he couldn't keep ignoring Bianca and Cherish while the spell played out... but it was so hard to look at either one of them while thiswas going on... He could look at them and not think about the pain he had put them through. He closed his eyes and waited for sleep to take over him.

**********************************************************************

Mona watched as Wyatt's peaceful looked changed into a an angry one. She let go of him and backed away from him... She was even ready in case he went crazy again. But, surprisingly, he stayed calm and sat down on the bed. Mona sighed a breath of relief when he calmed down.

"Are you sure you still wanna go to the fair... I mean if your upset about the attack, we'll just stay here...."

[Assassin Witch]

Wyatt stood up and nodded. "I'm sure about the fair. That is just what we need. We'll play hookey from magic, Mona. We both deserve it." He put his arms around her and kissed her neck. "Unless you don't feel up to the fair. It's all up to you."

***********************************************

The King of Magic had just sent his best, and personal Assassin out for a job. And it wasn't the Halliwells. There were factions out there trying to take over and Bianca was sent to find them and then take them out. And so, she set out for the top of the list. This guy would be easy. Seduction was the best way to weaken a man, human or not. The warlock was putty in her hands, and she was going to enjoy the kill because she hadn't had one in some time with only going for the Halliwells and that was just making her upset. Sure she had Chris back, but that complicated that this break was what she needed.

[AjentAnjel :)]

Cherish didnt know if she should repeat the question because Mel didn't hear it or if it just caught her off guard. "Ya know, the phoenix, can he really love her?" Cherish hoped that Mel would say no, and assure her everything was going to be okay, but she didn't know.

[RP Muse]

“Ohh…..” Mel said playing with the pillows. “Well uh….do you want me to be frank with you? I mean if I am it won’t be all bad news…..Or I could just keep my mouth shut…..”She said looking down at the pillows and started fiddling with her nail beds a trait she had inherited from her Aunt Prue.

[AjentAnjel :)]

"Nevermind, I dont think I wanna know!" Cherish continued picking up the apartment. There was stuff everywhere. "You'd think a herd of elephants came though here, at least it looks better than my apartment!" Cherish said, giving her friend a look like, your darn power ruined my apartment, but i forgive u.

[RP Muse]

“Hey don’t give me that look…..okay I deserve it but still…..well, you know” Melinda said getting up. “When is that pizza going to get here? I’m getting hungry and I’m not the only one!” She said going over to pick up the lamp and set the broken pieces on the table “Damn demons breaking my mother’s lamp!” Mel said getting upset that is was broken. That was one of the very few things she had managed to get from the manor when Wyatt kicked them out.

[italiannna]

Mona liked the feel of Wyatt around her... She liked his kisses even more.... She was thinking about them going on some rides together with him wrapping his arms around her.... All she wanted to do was forget about magic and this war... She just wanted it to be about them.... She turned to him with a smile on her face.

"Let's go...."

*********************************************************************

Chris was shifting from his right side to his left in a deep sleep.... He was dreaming about Cherish.... When he would feel his peak of happiness, the dream would change and have him with Bianca and the cycle would continue. He would feel a peak with her and the dream would change.

He was in a deep sleep and didn't notice that a darklighter had black-orbed into his room. The darklighter watched as the middle Halliwell slept peacefully. He armed his cross bow with a poisoned arrow and waited for Chris to shift in his sleep. The darklighter was after Chris to get on Wyatt's good side.

Chris turned to his right and the darklighter felt that his crossbow was now perfectly aimed for Chris's stomach. Without a second though, he pulled the trigger and watched as the arrow hit it's target. He then shimmered out.

Chris was in his dream state when suddenly he felt an intense pain hit him in his stomach. He yelled out in pain and awoke from his dream. He felt the intense pain. He looked down and saw the arrow sticking out from his stomach. He gritted his teeth....

"Why does this keep happening???"

[RP Muse]

Melinda was still picking up the pieces when she felt something really horrible and then heard Chris yell out in pain. “Oh god Chris…..!” She said quickly jumping to her feet and came flying into his room. She looked at Chris and then saw the darklighter arrow and Chris in pain “Damn it!” She swore under her breath. She quickly ran over to Chris. “Chris!? What happened?” She asked knowing he was not okay and wasn’t even going to ask. “ANDY!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Melinda yelled as loud as she could.

[AjentAnjel :)]

Cherish saw Melinda run into Chris' room and then scream. She didn't know what was happening, but it typically wasn't something good. When she got into the bedroom she could see the arrow sticking out of Chris, she was instantly filled with pain, anger, love, every emotion imaginable. Her first instinct was to get the arrow out of him, it wouldn't heal him, or keep him safe, but it might slow it down. The thing was that both her and Mel had whitelighter babies, and she didn't know if it would affect them or not. Cherish was willing to take the chance. "Mel, hand me that towel, we need to get this arrow out of him!"

[italiannna]

Chris was trying to breath past the pain but it spread thoughout his body... It was paralyzing... He saw Melinda burst through the door and he saw the look of fear on her face when she saw him. She ran over to him. He edged away from her... He didn't want her touching the arrow because of the child she was carrying. He heard her call to Andy. Chris shook his head... He had a bad feeling that Andy would not be coming.
Chris fell back down on he bed and was taking shallow breaths.

A few seconds later, Cherish ran through the door. He saw the look she gave him to... But hers was a different story. He heard her say that they should take the arrow out themselves...

"No.... poison... can hurt.... baby...."

[RP Muse]

Melinda realized Andy was not coming, and her and Cherish would be no help. “No listen to me, we….can….just....”She said starting to panic things were not looking good. She could easily lose her brother, there was no way to heal him. How was he going to be healed!?

“Gloves!!!!!” She said then quickly ran out and into the bathroom grabbing some gloves and slipped them on while, wrapping a towel around her hand. Then ran back into the room where Chris seemed to be getting worse. “I’m not going to lose you…..we will figure this out some how…..” She said her voice was full of uncertainty.

Melinda quickly looked at the arrow and took it out carefully then tossed it in the trash not sure what to do with it. She wasn’t thinking straight. She didn’t know what to think but she had never been in this position before. Chris had been hurt many times before but Andy was usually a call a way. Mel was trying her best to hold the tears back; she was scared even more scared than she had felt a few days ago. She felt like she had no control, she did not even want to think of what could happen. This was worse then when he had been hit with energy ball. Then she realized it was all her fault. Andy wasn’t going to heal Chris and it was her fault if she lost Chris she could only blame herself.

[italiannna]

Chris felt the sweat on his face fall down... He felt so tired... How lkong did the poison take before he.... NO! He had to fight it... He had to fight it for his sister, for Cherish and for his unborn child....

Chris could feel his vision getting blurry.... But he was able to see that Melinda had put on some gloves and was going to pull the arrow out... Chris began to hesitate....

"No... Mel... baby... AHHHHH!!"

The pain Chris felt as the arrow was being pulled out was far worse than anything he had ever felt before. His face contorted to the pain he felt. As soon as the arrow was out he fell back down again.... He was breathing so fast....

He wouldn't show it.... But he was so scared..... He looked at his sister and to Cherish... They could not heal... And Andy was not going to come... He was scared that is moment was coming... But he said nothing... He fought to keep awake... He thought of his child... He needed to stay awake...
