Chapter Seven

"What? I can't go back yet I'm not done what I came here to do. Sam what's wrong with you?" Chris asked.

He was caught between being confused and embarrassed but underneath that there was also happiness and slight anger. Happiness to have his Sam beside him and anger that he wanted to take him away from the version of himself that wasn't afraid to be with him, to love him.

"Wyatt is planning on sending a phoenix back for you. He plans to kill you Chris; if I bring you back he might change his mind.

"Wyatt won't kill me Sam, despite everything he's done he still loves me" Chris shouted in denial.

"He doesn't love you Chris; he doesn't know the meaning of the word!" Sam shouted back.

"Do you Sam?" Chris asked angrily.

"Yes Chris I know what love is and I know when you love someone you don't hurt them, you protect them" Sam said just as angrily.

"Is that what your doing protecting me from Wyatt or is it you that your trying to protect me from?" Chris accused.

Sam looked at him in shock his anger forgotten. Chris looked at him breathing hard but he looked strangely satisfied.

"Maybe I am! What are you doing sleeping with him?" Sam asked his anger back in full force.

"Him? He's you Sam, not as bitter, not as dead inside but he's still you. He's a version of you who isn't afraid of being in love with me." Chris retorted.

"I do love you Chris but look at me I'm old enough to be your father. Your right I am bitter and yes all that was good in me died years ago. That is exactly why this can't work!" he reasoned.

"I'm just as lost as you and all I'm asking is to be with you. Is that too much to ask?" Chris asked softly.

"Yes Chris it is." Sam lied.

Tears were sliding down the younger mans cheeks as he gave in to the hurt he was feeling, it broke Sam's heart to see it but he needed to distance himself. Chris needed to be strong and Sam knew that he was his biggest weakness.

"Then go away Sam. I can save Wyatt all on my own and maybe for awhile I can be with someone who doesn't think it's too much to be with me. Go back Sam; I can deal with anything Wyatt throws at me. I've been doing that for years" Chris said coldly.

"This thing you have going on with him, can't last." Sam argued.

"I know but it's something and that's more than I ever had before" Chris said gazing at the man lying on the floor.

"Wyatt wants you dead Chris I can't, I won't leave you alone" Sam said forcefully.

The younger version of Sam had woken up and he was now jumping to his feet. He stood in front of Chris protectively. Both men stared at each other, it was a surreal moment.

"He told you to leave" the younger Sam finally said.

"It's not you he's in love with you and you are not really in love with him. You're using each other and it can only end badly" the older one warned.

"That's our business" the younger said warily.

"If you care about him you'll let me take him home. If he stays here he will die!" the older on continued.

"He came back to save his brother and that's what he's going to do with my help. If you cared about him you'd be helping him too" the younger accused

"I love him, I want him to be safe and I can't just stand by and watch him die!" the older one said angrily.

"Then help me because if I stay or if I go back, either way he'll get me" Chris pleaded.

"I wish I could Chris, believe me I really do but you can't save him. He's taken so much from you already, can you really give him your life too?" future Sam asked.

"This isn't just about Wyatt; it's about the future of the entire world! My life is a small price to pay for the life of so many others!" Chris argued.

"It is about Wyatt because it's always been about him with you. I supported you in your decision to come back. I supported your decision to try to save him, even though I knew the better plan was to come back and kill him. I know you could never do that but" the older man stopped mid sentence.

The two younger men watched the older man warily. The Sam from the future just stood there, he seemed to be deep in thought. His eyes found the half witches after a moment; a determined look came of his face. Chris suddenly felt afraid and found himself reaching for the other young man beside him.

"If you can see since Chris then I'll just have to make you!" the older man said fiercely.

The younger men didn't have time to react before they were thrown against the wall as if by an invisible force. They were knocked out cold, completely helpless. Sam frowned at the bodies, he hadn't wanted to do that but it had been necessary. He was glad for once in his life that he hadn't been able to control his powers like he could know, at this point in time. It would have proved very awkward if he had gotten into a fight with his past self. He bent down to check on his past self, he seemed to be fine, maybe a concussion but that was it. He was glad to see he hadn't done any permanent damage. He turned his attention then to the other young man. He was struck by how young the other man looked when he was lying there helpless. The older man felt guilty and he began to regret his action. He shook his head, trying to rid himself of the unwanted guilt. He was doing this to protect the young man; he just had to keep reminding himself of that. Carefully taking the other man into his arms and leaving the room.

"Piper!" Sam shouted as he rushed in the door of the club. All three Halliwell sisters were seated at the bar; they looked up in surprise when they heard the young man shout.

"You're hurt!" Phoebe cried when she saw the blood trickling down his face.

"Where's Chris?" Piper asked feeling suddenly afraid.

Sam reached them, he was breathing hard and his head hurt. He knew he needed to get his wound looked at but Chris was in danger and he needed to find him.

"He was taken!" Sam told the sisters.

Piper felt faint but her anger kept her on her feet. Phoebe put her arm around her sister trying to comfort her and asked.

"Who took him?"

"I did!" Sam told them.

The sisters stared at him, confusion written all over their faces. Sam sighed trying again.

"I mean the other me, the one from the future. He came back, said he wanted to take Chris back. He said Wyatt was sending someone to kill him. Chris refused but then he knocked us out. I don't know how, I have these powers but there not that strong but they could be stronger in the future" he babbled.

Piper held up a hand to stop him.

"How long ago was this?" she asked.

"I don't know, after you left I think" Sam informed her.

Piper felt guilty, she could have stopped it from happening. Now god knows where her son was. Phoebe squeezed her shoulder and gave her a reassuring smile.

"We'll find him, there's a chance they could still be in this time" the middle sister reasoned.

"What if he isn't, what then?" the oldest argued.

"Then we'll just have to bring him back" Paige answered confidently.

"Have you any idea where he may have taken him?" Phoebe asked Sam.

"I wish I did but I don't. He may be me but looking at him in that room, I couldn't read him. I don't know what happens in the future but he was sure as hell nothing like me." Sam told them with worry evident in his eyes.

"We'll find him but first we need to fix up that cut. It looks nasty, we need to call Leo" Paige said.

"No I don't what him to know about Chris!" Piper cried.

"He's going to have to find out sooner or latter honey and Sam needs healing" Phoebe told her softly.

"No he can't know" Piper said stubbornly.

"Chris could need healing when we find him" Phoebe argued.

Piper sighed, knowing her sister was right. She couldn't do that to her son and Sam did need help. Even though part of her wanted to blame the young man for what had happened it hadn't been his fault. She also knew that Leo had a right to know but it would make things so very difficult. It was Chris that was what all that mattered now; they needed to get him back and back safe. She nodded her consent, much to her sister's relief. Sam just stared at them, not knowing what any of this was about.

"Leo!" Phoebe called.

"We need help here!" Paige called when he didn't call.

"Leo gets your ass down here now" Piper called losing patients.

The elder immediately appeared; Sam stared at the man that appeared in the blue lights. He wondered who he was and tried not to think of how much his entrance reminded him of Chris.

"Blessed be" Leo said in greeting.

"Heal!" Piper ordered pointing at Sam.

Leo complied hesitantly, wondering who the young man was. Sam watched in awe as the other man healed him with only his hands.

"You are?" Leo asked curiously.

"His name is Sam Winchester but we don't have time for explanations, Chris has been kidnapped" Piper said quickly.

"Kidnapped by whom?" Leo asked.

"The future version of Sam" Phoebe informed him.

"Why would he kidnap him?" Leo asked confused.

"He wanted to take him back to his own time?" Phoebe told him.

"To protect him" Sam quickly added.

"Is this really a bad thing" Leo asked.

All four of his companions glared at him angrily.

"No Leo it's not a good thing. He's not safe there" Piper said angrily.

"If he goes back there Wyatt will kill him" Sam shouted.

"He's your son Leo" Phoebe shouted.

Phoebe put a hand over her mouth, Piper glared at her. Leo stared open mouthed. Sam looked at the other man in a new light, this was Chris's father. He obviously didn't care too much for his son but then again he apparently didn't know he was his son.

"What?" Leo asked.

"I'm pregnant Leo with your second son, who happens to be Chris and he came back to save our oldest son from turning evil. Now his boyfriend from the future has apparently lost it and is trying to take him back to their own time. The problem with that is Wyatt, who has apparently taken over the World, wants to kill Chris. Are you getting that entire Leo?" Piper ranted.

"I need to sit down" Leo said hoarsely taking a seat.

"I know it's a lot to take in but your son needs you" Phoebe said gently.

Leo nodded slowly, incapable of talking at that moment. Piper walked over to and placed a hand on her shoulder, regretting her outburst. Leo seemed to pull himself together.

"Do you have any idea where he could be?" he asked.

"No but I think our best option would be to try and scry for him" Phoebe said.

"I'll take you. Piper maybe you and Leo should talk. Sam you come with us" Paige said.

Sam nodded and took Paige's outstretched hand, Phoebe taking the other and the orbed back to the manor leaving their sister with her ex-husband.

"It's a lot to take in" Leo said softly.

"Yeah it is" Piper agreed.

"How did you find out?" he asked gently.

"I found out I was pregnant about a three weeks" Piper said.

"The ghostly plain?" he asked.

"Yeah it was the Ghostly plain. Sam came to Club to find Chris last night and Chris ended up telling us about Wyatt turning evil. I was shocked and I yelled at him." Piper told him flinching slightly.

"Understandable" Leo assured her.

"I believed him though and I don't know everything started to click in to place and I realised. I realised that he was my son, he looks like me, he acts like me, and how did I not saw it?" she asked herself again.

"Neither did I Piper. He must hate me! I treated him so badly" Leo said miserably.

"So did I but he forgave me. Our son is pretty special" Piper said smiling a little.

"He is and I was so blinded by jealousy and mistrust, that I didn't see it" Leo berated himself.

"Jealousy?" Piper asked.

"He was replacing me in your lives and I guess I was jealous" Leo admitted.

"No one will ever replace you Leo" Piper told him.

"Thanks, it's good to know that. Do you think he can forgive me?" he asked hopefully.

"We have to find him first but I think he will" Piper reassured him.

"We'll find him" Leo said determined.

"Are you ready to go back now?" Piper asked.

Leo nodded and stood up; he offered his hand to his ex-wife. She took the offered hand, smiling at him slightly. Leo smiled back at her, squeezing her hand before orbing them both to the Manor.

Sam hadn't taken Chris back to their own time; in fact he had no intention of doing so. They were currently hauled up in an abandoned Hotel. Chris had yet to wake up, which Sam attributed more to the fact that Chris hadn't been taking care of himself, than the hit on his head. He still felt guilty though. He had placed the younger man on the lone bed in the room they occupied. Sam himself sat on the bed beside him, watching him sleep. He had often watched the younger man sleep over the years he'd known him, he found it relaxing. He never let him see though, always left before he woke up. Their relationship had always been complicated to say the least. Sam much to his shame had for a time followed Wyatt; it was after he had lost Dean for the second time. The Sam from this time didn't know it but he'd be getting his brother back soon, brought back by an angel. Only Dean had died again years later, helping that same angel, Sam hadn't been there. Sam had lost all faith in the powers of good and Wyatt's ideals appealed to him.

He had meet Chris while in Wyatt's service and he fallen for him straight away. When he found out what Wyatt was doing to Chris, he lost it, he took Chris and left. Chris saw him as his saviour but truth was if it hadn't been for Chris he would be still serving Wyatt. They joined the resistance because it was their safest option for both of them. During his time with the resistance he found out something that made him hate Wyatt even more, it had been Wyatt who had killed Dean. He became more active within the group after that. All he cared about now was taking care of Chris and destroying Wyatt. He wanted to protect Chris above all else, he hadn't realized that in the process of doing so that the younger man had fallen in love with him. It was true that he was with him too but nothing could ever come of it. He was too old and broken; the younger man deserved much more. He really shouldn't have kissed the younger man but he'd been so afraid that he'd never see him again, that he'd just given in. It was stupid and selfish and he could never do it again, no matter how much he wanted to.

He could have killed his younger self for sleeping with him; he'd made things so much worse. He couldn't kill him of course, not that he was very fond of living but if he died now, who would protect Chris then? When he'd found out Wyatt's plan to send the Phoenix after Chris, he knew he had to get to him first. It had taken a lot of planning but he had finally managed to achieve it. He'd planned to take Chris back with him but now that he was here, he felt different. All their problems revolved around Wyatt, Wyatt who was in this time a baby, a helpless baby. It would be so easy just to kill him, wouldn't it solve everything?

"Sam?" Chris's voice broke him out of his thoughts.

Sam smiled down at him, pushing the hair out of is eyes. A sleep riddled Chris smiled back until everything came flooding back and he jumped up.

"Where are we?" he asked fear in his voice.

"Still in the past, don't worry I'm not taking you back." Sam assured.

"You're doing the right thing Sam!" Chris told him relieved.

His relief was short lived though; Sam pulled him into a hug, which Chris immediately leant into, hugging him back. He'd missed him so much.

"I promised you when we first escaped that I'd take care of you" Sam whispered.

"I remember" Chris murmured.

"I will protect you Chris but I realised something" Sam continued.

"What did you realise" Chris asked suddenly feeling nervous.

"I realised that to protect you, he has to die" Sam told him.

"Who has to die?" Chris asked fearfully.

"Wyatt, Wyatt has to die!" Sam said firmly.

Chris pulled back, staring at Sam as if he didn't recognise him anymore. Sam kept a tight hold on him.

"No Sam, you can't!" Chris shouted angrily.

"It's the only way Chris. You can't tell me you never thought of it. He's helpless in this time, it would be so easy!" Sam argued.

"Never, he's a baby Sam!" Chris shouted back.

"A baby who is going to grow up, to kill millions of people and who is going to grow up, to kill my own brother. He is going to grow up to torture you, to rape you, to hurt you in everyway possible." Sam shouted.

"He's a baby Sam and he's my brother. I can save him, trust me" Chris pleaded.

"I do trust you but when it comes to him you've always been blind. Your plan is not going to work Chris, it's impossible." Sam said more softly.

"I won't let you!" Chris told him just as softly.

"I know that, that's why you have to go to sleep again" Sam said.

Chris tried to protest but it fell on deaf ears as he was yet again telepathically thrown against the wall. Sam picked up the body of the younger man, placing him on the bed again. He leant over him and place a kiss on the others lips.

"Forgive me!" he pleaded to the unconscious man.

Grabbing his jacket, he left the room. He had some work to do.
