A/N Hi happy readers! Thanx so much for all the reviews! i can't believe i've actually got more that 100! Anyway, i'm quite pleased because this chapter is much longer than the last one was! So let's get on with it!


Piper's heart stopped as she watched her youngest son run out on to the road. The car was coming down it and he hadn't even noticed. She heard Wyatt call out to him and watched as Chris stopped and watched the car coming towards him, his eyes wide in terror. But he didn't move. He just stood there like he was frozen. The owner of the car beeped the horn but Chris still didn't move. The driver put on the brakes and the tyres made a screeching noise on the road as they tried to stop.

"CHRIS!"

Piper screamed and covered her eyes with her hands. She heard the thud of the car hitting something then there was silence as the car drove away quickly. A deep, dead silence.

"Oh my god." she heard Phoebe choke out as she cried.

Shaking, Piper took her hands away from her eyes and gasped as she saw her youngest son lying motionless in the middle of the road. Wyatt was knelt beside him and Piper could see that he was crying. He had his hands hovering over Chris's head that had a large bleeding wound at the side of it.

"Come on, heal dammit!" Wyatt whispered frustratedly.

The sisters and Leo walked over cautiously so they could see better. Leo had gone chalky white and Piper's sisters were both crying. Piper herself was shaking uncontrollably and she felt like she was on the edge of a cliff, ready to fall off.

"Come on Chris, wake up please." Wyatt whispered desperately brushing the hair away from Chris's eyes.

Chris didn't stir and Wyatt looked around like he was looking for something. Then when he didn't see anything he put one arm underneath Chris's knees and the other around his back and lifted him from the ground. The rain was still pouring down and both Chris and Wyatt were soaked to the skin. The sisters and Leo were lucky in that aspect because since they didn't really exist in that time the weather didn't affect them in anyway. Wyatt looked down at his brother one last time before they orbed out. The sisters and Leo were rushed after them and they appeared back at the manor.

"GRANDPA!" Wyatt shouted through the manor.

Victor ran through from the kitchen looking stricken. When he saw Chris unconscious in Wyatt's arms his face went white and his eyes widened.

"What happened!" he asked worriedly.

"He got hit by a car." explained Wyatt as he lay Chris down on the couch. "And for some reason I can't heal him."

"He what!" exclaimed Victor walking over. "Well we need to get him to a hospital! Now!"

Wyatt nodded and he lifted Chris again. He looked back at Victor.

"Put your hand on my arm. I'll orb us there."

"What about magic exposure?" asked Victor.

"I'll orb to an alley beside the hospital. Come on before he loses too much blood." said Wyatt.

Victor nodded and they orbed out to the hospital.

"Do you think Chris will be okay?" asked Phoebe worriedly.

"Of course he will! We've seen him 22 years old and walking around!" said Piper.

"This is just a part of his past." added Leo.

"I know it is but you can't help but- whoa!" Phoebe yelped in surprise as they were quickly rushed to another memory.

When they landed they looked around and saw they were in a hospital ward. There were two lines of beds on either side of the room, most of them occupied with patients. Paige pointed to one of the end beds.

"Look you guys." she said quietly.

Her sisters and Leo followed her line of sight and Piper gasped as she recognised Chris lying in the bed. They quickly walked over. Wyatt was sitting in a chair beside the bed, his head lolling on his shoulder as he slept restlessly. Chris was still unconscious and lying motionless in the bed. He had a bandage on his head where the wound was and his face was white. He had a small clear breathing tube in his nose and was connected to various monitors. Suddenly Victor walked into the ward and over to Chris's bed with two paper cups in his hands. Noticing that Wyatt was sleeping he put one of the cups on Chris's bedside cabinet and drunk out of his own one. Wyatt stirred and opened his eyes, yawning widely.

"There's some coffee for you." said Victor pointing to the cup on the table. Wyatt nodded and picked up the coffee.

"Thanks." he said and he took a large gulp. After, he held the cup in both hands and gazed at Chris, deep in thought.

"He hates hospitals." he said quietly.

"Well this is the only place where he can be helped." said Victor.

"I don't get why my powers didn't work." said Wyatt. Victor didn't say anything.

"I tried to freeze the car you know." Wyatt said.

Victor looked up at him.

"Yeah?"

Wyatt nodded.

"When he ran onto the road, I called his name and then I tried to freeze the car but it didn't work. Then I tried to heal him but that didn't work either."

"Maybe it was meant to happen then." said Victor.

"I thought you didn't believe in fate." said Wyatt looking up at his grandfather.

"Well I guess I do now. I picked up a lot of stuff from your mom and aunts." replied Victor with a smile. Wyatt smiled back. Then his face turned serious again.

"He's not set foot in a hospital since…last time." he said quietly.

"When he was really sick?" asked Victor. Wyatt nodded.

"He'll be so mad at me for bringing him here." he said.

"Well let him be mad. The important thing is that he's alive and well. Think about if we'd stayed at home. He'd have most probably been dead by now." said Victor.

"You're right, it's just…he was so scared when he was here before. He hated it and he never wanted to be in a place like this again." said Wyatt.

"Well he can get mad at us when he's better." said Victor. They both went silent as they thought about different things.

"I wonder what was wrong with him." said Paige. "The last time he was in the hospital I mean."

"Maybe we'll find out." said Leo as they felt the lurching feeling and they were transported into another moment.

Looking around they saw they were back in the manor. It was dark outside and it seemed to be in the middle of the night since no lights were on. They were upstairs, outside all the bedrooms.

"Wait, do you guys hear that?" asked Phoebe.

They all listened. There was the sound of muffled crying coming from what had been little Chris's room in the other memory. They jumped as the bedroom door from across the hall shot open and out ran a Future Piper in her dressing gown with slippers on her feet. She crossed the hall quickly and went into the room where the crying was coming from. The sisters and Leo quickly followed. When they got inside they saw the little boy version of Chris that looked around 7 years old. He was lying on his side on his bed with his knees drawn up and his arms wrapped around his stomach. He was sobbing loudly and Future Piper quickly went over to him.

"What's wrong sweetie?" she asked gently, sitting down on the bed beside Chris. She stroked his hair.

"M-my…t-t-tummy…h-h-hurts!" Chris managed to force out.

"Where does it hurt?" asked Future Piper.

"T-there." Chris sobbed pointing to the right of his stomach.

"Okay sit up and let me take a look honey." said Future Piper reaching for her son.

"No!" Chris yelled. "It's t-too sore if I m-move mommy. It feels b-better when I lie down l-like this."

"Okay sweetie. Just lie down just now then." said Future Piper stroking his hair once again.

"Mom?"

The sisters, Leo and Future Piper looked towards the door and saw a 9 year old Wyatt standing there looking terrified as he watched his little brother sob violently.

"Go back to bed honey." said Future Piper.

"What's wrong with him?" Wyatt asked worriedly.

"Wyatt, go back to bed." said Future Piper.

"Is he going to be okay?"

"Wyatt please. Just go back to bed okay?"

Wyatt hesitated for a moment but when he saw the pleading look in his mom's eye he nodded.

"Okay mom." he said and he walked back to his room.

Future Piper turned back to her youngest son and put her hand on his forehead.

"You're burning up." she said.

"What's wrong with me mommy?" Chris asked her, the tears still running down his face.

"I don't know sweetie but I'm going to find out okay?"

Chris nodded.

"I just want it to go away." he whispered. The sobbing had drained the energy out of him.

Future Piper stroked his hair and watched him worriedly.

"You're going to be okay baby. You're going to be okay, I promise."

Suddenly the sisters and Leo were once again being rushed to another memory. When they arrived they saw they were back in the hospital. Looking around they realised they were in a side room with only one bed in it. Chris, whom they'd saw in the last memory, was sleeping in the bed. They smiled as they saw Wyatt sleeping beside him. They saw Future Piper, Phoebe and Paige were standing in a group, talking to, who they assumed was a doctor. They went closer to listen to the conversation.

"He has what!" exclaimed Future Piper.

"He has been diagnosed with Appendicitis Mrs Halliwell." repeated the doctor.

"Well what can we do about that? Is there medicine he can take or something?" Future Phoebe asked.

"I'm afraid that it's gone too far for antibiotics. He'll have to have an operation to remove his appendix." said the doctor gravely.

The Future sisters went silent in shock for a moment.

"Surgery?" Future Piper asked. She looked completely shocked and scared. "No…"

"Mrs Halliwell, this is the only way for your son to get better. If he doesn't get this operation he could die." said the doctor.

Future Piper closed her eyes and covered her mouth with her hand. Opening her eyes the sisters and Leo could see they were filling with tears.

"I never realised he had it. What are the symptoms?" she asked.

"Well fever, stomach pain to the right side-

"He had a fever and the stomach pain but that was the night I brought him to the hospital."

"Loss of appetite, have you noticed any of that?" asked the doctor.

Future Piper thought for a moment.

"Actually yeah he has had loss of appetite recently but I didn't think anything of it."

"Also, the stomach pain normally starts around the belly button area and it grows bigger and bigger and ends up on the right side. Has he complained of a sore stomach at all?" asked the doctor.

Future Piper gasped.

"Oh my god he has! He came to me and said he had a stomach ache but I just gave him a painkiller and a drink and put him back to bed. He was sick as well. Is that a symptom?"

The doctor nodded.

"Yes vomiting can follow. Constipation as well, have you noticed that?"

Future Piper shook her head.

"No I didn't notice that."

"Is he going to be okay?" Future Phoebe asked.

"If he doesn't get this operation then no. If he does get it then most probably." said the doctor.

"When will he be getting the operation?" asked Future Piper.

"Quite soon actually. We'll get him prepared for the surgery in the next half hour okay?" queried the doctor.

Future Piper, Phoebe and Paige nodded. The doctor left the room and Future Piper walked over to the bed. She sat down in one of the chairs beside it and stroked Chris's hair. Future Phoebe and Paige sat down on the other chairs and watched their nephews sleep.

"He's going to be okay Piper." said Future Phoebe reassuringly.

"I hope so." said Future Piper tearfully as she moved her hand and took hold of Chris's small one.

Piper felt tears prickling her eyes but they were suddenly forgotten when they were all transported to another memory. They saw they were back in the room except the bed was being wheeled in by nurses. Chris was laying in it unconscious and the Future sisters and Wyatt were walking along behind him.

"So is he going to be okay?" Future Piper asked the doctor who had just came in the room.

"Well the operation went well so I'd say so yes." he said. "He should wake up soon but he's still under the influence of the anaesthetic so he might be a bit drowsy."

Future Piper nodded and walked over to the bed, taking hold of Chris's small hand. She sat down in the seat beside the bed. Her sisters followed suit and grabbed two chairs and putting them at the side of the bed. Future Paige patted her knees and pulled Wyatt onto them.

"Mommy?"

Future Piper moved closer to Chris so that she could hear him better.

"Hey sweetie, how you feeling?" she asked.

"My head feels funny." answered Chris groggily.

"Probably the painkillers." said Future Phoebe.

"Where am I?" asked Chris.

"You're in the hospital sweetie. The doctors are going to make you better." said Future Piper.

"Why couldn't daddy heal me?"

Future Piper went silent and didn't say anything.

"Mommy?"

Future Piper looked him in the eyes.

"Your daddy's really busy sweetheart."

Chris didn't say anything and looked around the room.

"I don't like it here." he said sadly and he started to cry.

"Oh sweetie, don't cry." said Future Piper stroking his hair to try and comfort him.

"I want to go home!" Chris sobbed.

"You'll be able to go home soon sweetie." said Future Piper.

Wyatt reached forward and took hold of Chris's other hand.

"If you stop crying then when you get home we'll play orb and seek okay?"

Chris swallowed and managed to stop crying. He nodded. "Okay."

"But you have to wait until you're well enough to come home or I won't play with you. Deal?"

Chris nodded again. "Deal."

The future and present sisters smiled at the two boys as did Leo.

"They're so sweet together." said Phoebe.

"Chris and Wyatt?" asked Paige. Phoebe nodded.

"He really looks after his little brother doesn't he? You can't imagine that he's going to be evil." said Piper. Her sisters and Leo nodded in agreement.

Suddenly they were rushed to another memory. They saw they were back in the ward where teenage Chris had been. They saw him still in the bed with Victor and Wyatt sitting on chairs beside it. They walked over. They watched as Chris Stirred and opened his eyes.

"Wyatt?" he mumbled.

Wyatt drew his chair in closer.

"Hey how you feeling?" he asked gently.

"My head kinda hurts." answered Chris bringing his hand up to the bandage. "Ouch! What happened? Where am I?"

"You don't remember?" asked Victor. Chris shook his head (as much as he could without it hurting anyway).

"You were hit by a car Chris. You're in the hospital." explained Wyatt.

"The hospital! Why did you bring me here?" asked Chris, his expression shocked and slightly angry.

"Because if we didn't you'd be dead right now!" exclaimed Wyatt.

"Could you keep your voices down please." said a nurse going past.

"Why didn't you just heal me!" whispered Chris furiously.

"I tried to but it didn't work! There was nothing else we could do except bring you here!" Wyatt retorted.

"You know I hate hospitals!"

"Well I'd rather you being mad at me than dead!"

Chris looked away and went silent.

"What were you thinking running off that Chris?" Victor asked scoldingly.

"I had to get away." said Chris quietly.

"Well you trying to get away nearly led to you being killed." said Victor.

"Maybe that would have been best. For me anyway." said Chris

The sisters and Leo gasped. So did Wyatt and Victor.

"What! How can you say that?" asked Wyatt, shocked.

Chris rubbed his face with his hands.

"I didn't mean it okay?"

"If you didn't mean it you wouldn't have said it." said Wyatt.

Chris and Wyatt looked steadily at each other but then a nurse came in.

"Okay I'm going to have to ask you both to leave. Christopher needs his rest." she said.

Victor and Wyatt nodded and stood up.

"We'll see you later okay?" said Victor putting a hand on Chris's shoulder.

Chris nodded and they both left. The sisters and Leo watched as he sighed and let his head fall back against the pillow.

"Do you think he meant it?" asked Piper.

"Meant what?" asked Paige.

"That it would have been best if he died."

"Maybe at the time." said Leo. "But I think he's glad he didn't now."

"Really?" said Phoebe. "I mean, he comes from a future where evil rules everything. We're dead, dad's dead and Wyatt is evil. What can he possibly find to be happy and grateful about? What has he got to live for?"

"The chance to change it all." said Leo.

"When we get back, the first thing I'm going to do is give Chris a huge hug! He never deserved all this." said Paige. The sisters and Leo nodded in agreement.

Leo took a breath in as he watched his youngest son stare sadly into space.

"I have a feeling though that this is only start of bad things to come that we have to watch."
