"Where are we this time?" Chris asked, it was the same question he asked every time he saw the strange man. They were standing on top of a tall hill looking down on the gray city bellow.

"Where I grew up, where you could have grown up."

"This is San Francisco?"

"This is what San Francisco could have been, but I changed that future."

"Why was the world like this?"

"I can't tell you that?"

"Why not?"

"It's just something you shouldn't know about at the moment. Some day, maybe, you will know it will just take time, you aren't ready for it yet."

"I don't get it." Chris mumbled

Piper looked away from Chris and down at her hands, tears forming in her eyes. It had been over a week and Chris still hadn't woken up. His word's slowly started to be comprehendible, but made little sense to the concerned adults around him.

"How is he doing?" Phoebe asked walking into the room giving her older sister a comforting hug.

"Nothings changed."

"Its okay sweetie, I'm sure he will pull through. In the mean time I brought a couple visitors, come on in kids its okay." Wyatt and Lizzy walked into the room, a little apprehensive about their surroundings. It wasn't their first time visiting someone in the hospital, they had been admitted themselves plenty of times, and it wouldn't be their last, but they could never get use to the place.

"Hey guys, how have you been?" Piper said trying her best to make the kids more comfortable

"Fine, how is Chris?" Wyatt asked looking at his baby brother who was, to Piper's relief, lying peacefully at the moment.

"As well as can be expected.' Piper half lied not wanting to scare the two with the entire truth.

"If we speak to him would he be able to hear us?"

"We don't know if he can hear you, but you go ahead and try."

"Hey Chris it's Lizzy. You've missed a lot in the past week, so you better hurry up and wake up soon cause I'm England for another stupid family event type thingy in like 2 weeks and I want to be able to actually say good-bye to you."

"Yeah bro, I've been going insane without you. How do you deal with her, she is nuts."

"Hey, don't listen to him Chris he is the one that is crazy." Lizzy said giving Wyatt a nagging face that said 'I'm right and you're wrong deal with it' Wyatt stuck his tongue out at her. Piper had to laugh at the two kids as they continued to talk to Chris as if he was fine and was actually having the conversation with them instead of lying there listening.

"Kids we should go." Phoebe said breaking up their fun

"Bye Chris get better soon we miss you. I love you." Lizzy gave him a peck on the check.

"Me too bro." Wyatt patted his shoulder

"Come here you two." Piper opened her arms to the two children pulling them into a tight hug. "Be good." Piper kissed the top of their heads holding onto them even tighter with no complaints from the two.

"I love you mom, and I miss you are you gonna come home anytime soon?" Wyatt asked after they pulled out of the hug.

"I don't know sweetie, I need to stay here with Chris in case there are any changes."

"Okay I understand, bye mom." Wyatt and Lizzy shuffled their feet as they walked out of the room followed by Phoebe.

"He is right you know, you should go home." Leo said leaning against the door frame

"Leo how long have you been standing there?" Piper asked surprised

"Long enough to see that your other son misses you. Piper you need to go home and get some sleep in an actual bed not a chair."

"I will get some sleep once Chris wakes up."

"But we don't know how long that will be." Leo walked in front of Piper's chair and kneeled down taking her hands in his.

"But I'm afraid that if I leave… if I leave something will happen and Chris will never wake up."

"That is not going to happen you know that Chris is strong. Go home just for a few hours take a shower, get some sleep. I promise I will not leave this room if you don't. And if you won't do it for yourself or for me do it for our other song Wyatt he needs to spend some time with his mom."

"Okay." Piper got up from her seat and Leo gave her a big hug.

"I'll call you if there are any changes, now hurry if you are fast enough you might be able to catch up with Phoebe and the kids." Leo kissed her forehead before Piper walked out of the room.

"Chris." Chris was still standing on top of the hill looking down on the city when he heard some distant voicecall out his name; he started to look around trying to find the source of the voice.

"What is it?" the strange man asked when he saw Chris start to walk around

"I heard Lizzy call my name." Chris told him still trying to find her

"Lizzy as in small blonde girl with her hair in braids, full of energy, and our best friend?" Chris nodded his head, "I remember Lizzy what is she saying?"

"Something about England, Wyatt being crazy, get better soon, and she loves me."

"That sounds like Lizzy, hold onto her tight you will need her in years to come. She means a lot more to us them we know. And in the not so far away future something will happen between you two that will change everything."

"Is it a good thing?"

"In the beginning we will be scared more scared then we have ever been, but we will begin to get use to it. Times will be bad for the first few years, but everything will work out in the end. But be sure to go to mom, dad, or Wyatt when ever you feel down or in trouble they are there to help you."

"That's what they said when I got sick last summer."

"I know, and it has helped, but please go to them, lean on them, when the time comes you will need all the help you can get."

"If you say so after all you are me."
