Disclaimer: I only own XA/N.
A/N: Another surprise update!! I thought that I would try and bring you some cheer on this sad day. It seemed like the only thing that we talked about in school today. 9-11-01. All Americans will forever remember that day. As far as the rest of the world goes, I really don't know. I doubt if I will ever forget what I was doing. All right, I'm starting to sound like my teachers....:o( Not Good. All right, so here is the update for Next to Nothing, obviously, and, for those who are immensely concerned, I am contemplating a sequel to Drop to Zero, as we speak, so spread the word around!!
XA/N: OK, continuing on from Chapter 58....(I don't feel like typing up a summary about it this time, too much too type about that....Besides, you can go back and read it if you really need to!)
"Wait, wait, so you're saying that if we all die in this world, then one of us could end up in like Beethoven's time, and another in some futuristic world?" Jericho asked. Everyone in the room was beginning to show concern.
"That's exactly what I'm saying."
"Well, how can we reverse it, or just avoid it?" Rockie asked. JB shrugged.
"I don't really know."
"How can you NOT know???? You're the god damn author of this thing!!!" Akila screamed. JB simply looked at her.
"There are things that even I don't understand, and even those I do, could be very well near impossible to explain." JB said calmly. Lizzie walked over to the window.
"I understand that." She said quietly. The whole room seemed to echo the silence that the situation warranted. Nothing seemed to move, it was as if time itself had stopped, which was nearly impossible.
Nearly impossible.
Akila happened to glance over at Jeff while the silence was consuming the room, and saw that Skittle was sitting on his lap.
"GET THE HELL AWAY FROM MY JEFFERY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Akila screamed, making everyone in the room visibly jump. Skittle glanced up just in time to see Akila getting ready to tackle her to the ground, when she suddenly stopped.
"What's the matter? Did you get scared...?" Skittle taunted her. Then she noticed what everyone else had been staring at.
"Christ." Jericho said. Shawn echoed him.
"What in the blue hell-" Rock started.
"Is going on here?" Rockie finished for him. Lizzie walked up to JB and put a hand behind her. She leaned in front of her to see if it was true.
JB was becoming transparent.
She wasn't becoming it alone, though.
Everyone else was too.
"All right, everyone, join hands, we'll see if this works!!!" JB shouted. Everyone made a circle. Each XA/Nite got to "stand by her man", and since it was a circle, Akila and Skittle both got to stand by Jeff. On opposite sides, of course.
"Chris, I have to tell you something, right now in case I never see you again." Lizzie said, tears visibly coming to her eyes. Chris leaned over so that he could hear her better. A large, horrendous wind gushing sound was making it difficult to say things.
"What is it?" Chris yelled. The wind was getting louder.
"You're going to be a father!!!" Lizzie screamed. Chris dropped her hand. Shock was written all over his face.
"I-I'm..." Chris started, but the wind was drowning him out. Lizzie realized that they were all going to be leaving the world soon, so she grabbed for his hand.
But she grabbed too late.
"NO!!!!!!!!!!!!! CHRIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Lizzie screamed. Everyone else had made it.
Everyone else except for Chris.

Shawn and Liz ran up to the doctor. Both were anxious and terrified to find out what had become of their friend, and in Liz's case, fiancée. Randy walked up a little slower. He was afraid to know what the doctor had to tell them.
"What happened?" Shawn asked.
"Is he all right?" Liz asked on the heels of Shawn's question. The doctor held up his hands in defense.
"One at a time. First, I have to tell you that Chris is doing just fine. We've gotten him stabilized and he's doing good." The doctor said.
"When will we get to see him?" Shawn asked.
"Ah, you see, that might be a little bit of a problem, because...."
"What the hell did you do to him, you bastard?!?!" Shawn screamed, grabbing the doctor by the collar of his white coat, and slamming him up against the nearest wall. "What the hell did you DO?!?!?" Liz and Randy were trying to tell Shawn to let the doctor go, and that this wasn't helping matters along any.
"He-He slipped into a coma, shortly after we revived him!!" The doctor said defenselessly. "He said about six words, then he went into a coma." Shawn glared at him.
"What did he say?" He growled.
"I-I don't remember..."
"WHAT DID HE SAY?!" Shawn yelled.
"He said, he said 'Hunter's out, got to find Cori'. That's it, that's all, I swear, please let me go." Shawn released the doctor and walked over to Liz. She was crying again. Again. He wondered how many more times she would have to go through this, after she and Chris got married. Shawn engulfed her into a hug as he himself began to shed tears. He reached over and dragged Randy into the hug as well. All of them, no matter how hard they tried, had to believe that this was Chris' last chance.
If he somehow managed to pull out of this, they didn't think that he was going to make it one more time through something like this.
They also knew that his dreams had put him here.
When you're in a coma, all you really seem to do is dream.....
