"Can you sense him?" asked Piper desperately to Paige who was in the middle of the attic. Her eyes were closed, she was concentrating to sense Chris but she could feel anything. She just shook her head.
"Is, is he-" Piper said but got interrupted by Paige who could feel the anguish of her sister.
"No it's more like he doesn't want to be sensed"
"Can he do that?" asked Piper.
"I don't see why not," replied Phoebe. "Well if you can't sense him, let's try scrying for him" said Phoebe trying not to lose the composure. She was probably as worried as Piper, Chris had lost a reason to live, he thought there was nothing to fight for. It was important to find him soon. She had felt his feelings, everytime she remembered, her hair stood on end. 'What if-' began to think Phoebe, but she quickly shook her head to avoid that thought.
Phoebe took the map of San Francisco and the pendant. It went round the map for minutes while Piper paced the floor nervously.
"It is NOT working" whispered Piper as she sank down onto the couch. She buried her face in her hands and sobbed. She felt so helplessness and guilty.
"If anything happened to Chris I would never forgive myself" cried, realizing how much she must have hurt Chris, not only with her words, but also with how she had been treating him for the past few months. She has always mistrusted him, but now he realized he really cared about Wyatt, he had sacrificed the love of his life for him. Paige sat down beside Piper and hugged her, trying to offer some comfort. Phoebe sat down on the other side and squeezed her hand.
"Everything will be ok" said Paige encouragingly.
"Will it?" Piper asked, uncertainty evident in her voice. "How?"
"Uh, how about Leo?" asked carefully Phoebe. Piper looked at her with a disbelief face. "Well, he's an Elder, I'm sure the must have a method to find all the whitelighters, mustn't he?"
Before any of her sisters could answer it, Phoebe called out him. "Leo!"
Leo orbed into the attic. He was wearing the Elder's golden robes, his hands clasped demurely together in front of him.
"Phoebe, Paige, Piper. How are you?" asked softly.
"Well, not so good. We have a problem" answered Paige.
"Perhaps we should meditate?" said Leo with a smile.
"No. I don't want to meditate" said Piper as she stood up. "It's Chris, you have to help us find him!".
"What about him?" asked Leo with surprise. He have never liked him, he didn't really trust him. He knew he wasn't telling them all the truth, and with the appearance of Bianca, he realized there were a lot of things that needed to be said.
"He has disappeared and we can't contact him. We have tried everything, but we can not sense him" explained Phoebe. "We need to talk with him. Bianca has died and he feels guilty and lost"
Leo nodded and closed his eyes. He needed to concentrate. As an elder, he was more powerful than Paige, who was just a whitelighter. It should not be difficult to sense him.
"Ok, I sense him. I'll talk with him and bring him back" said and the orbed out.
Phoebe and Paige stood up and went close to Piper to confort her.
"It's ok now, Leo will bring him here" said Paige.
Chris was sitting on top of the tallest tower of the Golden Gate Bridge. He took out a photo from his wallet and stared at it. His fingers touched it tenderly.
"Bianca" whispered. "I'm so sorry... if I had known that he could-" his voice broke, Chris hung his head and tried to keep his tears from falling.
Leo orbed in. He looked down at Chris for a long while, frozen in place by the sight before him. Chris was crying, he had never seen him crying before.
"Chris?" whispered Leo.
When Chris looked up, Leo saw his face and his concern about this mysterious boy. Chris' face was pale.
"What are you doing here?" asked Chris while he put the photo in his wallet again.
"Can we talk?" said Leo as he kneeled next to him.
"There is nothing to talk about" said and then looked down at the car lights below.
"I think there is. Quite a bit, actually"
Chris looked at him for a moment surprised but then he remembered he was in front of a man that hated him, he didn't cared about him, he had never cared in the future and not now. "It doesn't matter"
"It does to the girls and it does to me, Chris. I think it is time to tell us the truth".
Chris looked down for a moment deciding whether to tell him or not. Finally, he did.
"There's nothing left in the future anymore" confessed Chris.
"Is about Bianca? You can still save her". Chris shook his head trying not to think about it, it was too painful.
"Sorry" mumbled Chris.
Before Leo could ask what was he talking about, Chris through him an energy ball that made him disappear. Without Leo, Chris took the opportunity to do what he came here to do. He closed his eyes, opened his arms out wide and...
