To put it lightly Chris was freaking out. Okay he was not just freaking out, he was having a panic attack.
Chris was sitting on the top of the Golden Gate bridge looking up at the starry night. To him it looked like a peaceful lake of midnight blue with white specks. It was so much different from his times sky. Then or he guessed what it would look like, was nothing more than black with streaks or orange and red.
Oh what he'd give to go back, his family now knew who he was. Leo knew who he was. Piper knew who he was and what it sounded like she wasn't all that happy. Sure she hugged him and let her motherly instincts take over, but was she honestly happy he was her son. He had lied and manipulated all of them. His breathes became more labored and his head felt like it was in a frenzy.
He couldn't breathe, god it was so hard to breathe. He was tilting forward and he hastily grabbed the beam next to him to make sure he didn't fall. He barely registered the fact he was sobbing and shaking. His hand shook as sweat creeped down his hand. He all of a sudden lost his grip on the bean and his feet gave out. As he fell back he hit his head on the beam. The last thing he saw was his dad's face running towards him.
"Dad…."
Leo looked where Chris had orbed from. He stood there in shock. Piper was sitting in a nearby chair with her head in her hands. Phoebe was trying to comfort her while Paige tried to locate Chris.
He had no idea what had happened. At the beginning of the evening after dinner they had called for Chris. Paige had spilled about what Chris told her not a few days prior and they were ready to confront their apparent son about it.
"Chris can you come here please!" Piper yelled ever so loudly. They saw blue orbs start to appear announcing the entrance of the young whitelighter. "Hello Piper what do you need? Do you have any more theories on who is after Wyate?" Chris asked hastily. He had been searching for weeks on who might be behind his brothers turning, but had gotten nowhere.
"No Chris it's not that, we wanted to ask you something actually." Phoebe said in a gentle tone. They could be wrong or right. If they were wrong then no harm no foul. If they were right then this could get rough. "Chris who were your parents in the future, what were they like? Leo asked taking a step forward. Chris' stomach dropped at that question. Correction it plummeted.
The shock must have been clear on his face because Leo took another step forward. Chris reflexively took a step back. "Umm...umm they were..uh… great I guess...I.. they died when I was young." Chris stammered out. God he was a horrible liar, even he could tell that was the worst move he could have played.
"Chris are we your parents?" Piper asked as she walked to stand by Leo. Chris paled at that, he had tried so hard not to slip up. He so badly when he first arrived wanted to tell them. Every time he looked at them it was a struggle not to call them mom or dad. He felt his eyes get wet and tears start to spill over. He sniffed and muttered a barely audible "yeah." Piper looked at him in shock and Leo took a step closer to him so they were no more than ten feet apart. More tears fell from Chris' eyes as he looked at his parents' faces. 'Oh god they hate me! They must be so disappointed.' Chris thought as he continued to stare at his parents expressions.
Piper was getting worried for her son, his breathes were getting heavier and he seemed to not be able to stop crying. Leo went to touch Chris, but he pulled back violently. "Please don't…" Chris wheezed out. "Chris baby I need you to calm down for me." Piper spoke softly to him. Chris looked up "I'm sorry, I'm really sorry! I...I am really sorry mom please, I'm so so sorry!" Chris begged her. Piper gaped at him, while Leo and the rest stared. Suddenly Chris orbed out of the kitchen.
As they sat there Leo stood up from his chair. "I'm going after him." he stated as he orbed to where he sensed Chris. When he appeared at the Golden Gate bridge the first thing he saw was Chris slip. From what he saw it looked like he hit his head pretty hard. As he ran over to check on him he saw something crimson appear on the beam. Leo knelt down beside Chris.
"Dad…"
Leo looked at Chris' face. His son was looking at him through glazed eyes. As he picked him up he felt something warm and sticky on his shoulder. He looked at Chris' head and realized where the blood was coming from. Chris had apparently taken a blow to the head which had opened up more as he picked him up. Deciding there was no time to waste, as head wounds bled a lot. Leo orbed them to the Manor.
Piper, Phoebe and Paige decided they would wait in the living room until Leo and Chris came back. They had been sitting down for maybe five to ten minutes when they saw the blue orbs. There something off though, there was only one set of orbs. When The orbs finally faded they saw Leo carrying what looked like an unconscious Chris and blood was coating Leo's shirt and Chris' hair.
"What happened?!" They all yelled as they quickly ran over to Leo and Chris.
