OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Chapter four: Chris' Dream
The day was long and Chris and Wyatt were both happy when they finally got into bed. Piper had made the couches as comfortable as she could. After few minutes of chatting Chris said "Goodnight" to Wyatt and drifted into a dreamworld...
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
It was cold... It was so damn cold. Chris couldn't remeber ever being that cold in his whole entire life and he had been to the North Pole. By an accident of course and only for few seconds but still!
Chris was standing in a cemetary, alone. He looked around to see anyone but he only spotted one man looking at something. That man looked awfully familiar. Not knowing why, Chris started to walk to him. When he finally reached him, he saw what he was looking at. Three tumstones...With names PIPER HALLIWELL, LEO WYATT and WYATT HALLIWELL.
Chris took a step back. What? How.. why... what? "You can stop this from happening..." the man said. He didn't show his face.
"Me? What are you talking about? Do you mean this hasn't happened yet?" Chris asked.
"Yes, that is what I mean. You're sleeping, this is a dream. A nightmare, to be honest", the man answered.
"Okay, how do I get out of it?"
"You can't. Not yet. Not until I tell you why you and your brother are in the past, what you came to change."
"You know why we're here?"
"Of course I know why you're here! I wanted you here in the first place. The demon that came to talk to you, I hired him! So are you gonna listen to me or not?" the man said, annoyed.
"Okay, fine. But show me who you are first", Chris said.
The man turned around. Chris thought that he was about to faint. That man looked excatly like him, though few years older. No no, no way... This wasn't happening.
"Yeah, I know. But at least now that you know we're same flesh and blood you'll trust me", the older Chris said. "Few days from now Paige is gonna be raped. By a demon. And she's gonna get pregnant. That child will be the most powerful thing EVER to be born on Earth, even Wyatt's a clear second. The problem is that this baby's demonblood is too strong, he won't be able to serve good. It needs to be killed."
Chris swallowed hard. First this man said that they were one and the same and then he tells that he has to kill his aunts child. Great... juuuust great.
"Can't we just stop the raping from happening?" he asked.
"You can try, but I'm afraid that's not possible. You have to make a plan to kill the child, it won't be easy. Good news is tha you have nine months to make it. But as the baby gets older it gets stronger so you have to do it as quickly as you can, the best time would be right after the birth..."
"Wait, wait, wait..." Chris cut off. "You're asking me to kill a child right after it has born! I can't do that! It will be my cousin and it's completely innocent when it's born... I - I don't think I can do this..."
"Well you see what's gonna happen if you don't!" the other Chris yelled. "That baby won't be innocent very long. Trust me, I know what it's like to go against a familymember but you have no choice. If you let this baby grow Mom, Dad and Wyatt will die, along with half of the world! Tell me, me, could you live without your family, huh? I tried. It sucks. You don't want to go through it trust me."
Chris looked from his parents' names to Wyatt's and back to the older Chris. "What do you mean? How come you lived without your family?"
The older Chris didn't answer right away. The he sighed. "Let's just say I come from a different timeline. VERY different timeline."
They were quiet for few minutes. Then Chris decided to ask the last questions that were bothering his mind: "Why didn't our parents live this. They would have told. And how do you know all this? And why isn't my name there? The child will kill me, too... Right?"
The older Chris shook his head at the questions and decided to answer them one at the time. "I'm not sure but I'm guessing that they did live this but they just don't remember it. Memory dust or something. And I know all this, cuz I'm died outside of my time. That broke few limits and I'm able to see quite far to the future... Very useful sometimes. I could have brought anyone from the future to change it but I figured that it would be easiest to contactyou. You know, since we kinda share minds and everything. It's complicated, don't make me explain it. And no, the child won't kill you. That's the worst part, isn't it. You, trying to escape, kill it, get revenge... without your family..."
Chris stared at the other Chris. "You're dead?"
"Yeah, how did you figure I was able to do all this? But don't worry, I have very strong feeling that you won't die this young. After all, you have your family right there for you."
Chris nodded and looked at stones again. "But not if I don't kill the baby..."
"Yes, but you don't have to do it alone. You have Wyatt."
Chris nodded again. He had to do this... THEY had to do this.
"Finally accepted it, huh? Well, then I can let you wake up. You'll have to tell all this to Wyatt when it's still strongly in your mind."
"You said this was a nightmare", Chris said.
"Well isn't it?" the other Chris asked and pointed at the names. "This is your worst nightmare, right?"
Yeah, it was... But right when he was about to say it, he felt as if he was pulled out of cold water...
"One last thing! Don't tell about thsi to anyone but Wyatt!"
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Chris woke up, breathing hard. He saw Wyatt sleeping on the other couch, his mouth open. Chris didn't thinks for one second. He got off the couch and tiptoed to Wyatt's side.
"Wy! Wyatt! Wake up, we need to talk!"
"Mmmhh... What? What time is it?" Wyatt mumbled.
"I don't know, and I don't care just wake up!"
"I did, thanks to you! What is so important that it can't wait 'til mo - mo - mooorning?" Wyatt said with a big yawn.
"I know why we're here", Chris said. Wyatt looked at him, confused.
"How?"
"I saw a dream... or a nightmare, whatever. Get up and I'll tell you!"
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"So let me get this straight. We have to kill a BABY! Paige's baby? Who is a demon? Child of a demon... And you expect me to believe that you sa all this in a dream. You don't have that kind of power, Chris!"
"I know that, Wy. But I saw it and I KNOW it's true. Don't ask how I just do. I also saw what will happen if we don't stop this child", Chris said.
"And... what will happen?" Wyatt asked.
"YoumomanddadwilldieandIhavetofightitallonmyowncuzIdidn'tsafeyou..."
"Woah, woah... Slow down so people can understand you. What will happen if we don't kill this child?"
Chris took a deep breath. "You, Mom and Dad will die and I will have to kill fight it all on my own cuz I didn't safe you..." Chris said more slowly but he didn't look at Wyatt.
"You saw that in the dream?"
"Well, not the last part", Chris admitted. "But that must have happened if you died and I survived..." Chris answered. Wyatt heard clear guilt in his brother's voice and sighed.
"You know, you can't blame yourself of everything! Specially if it hasn't even happened yet or if it's just some stupid way to make you convinced that you... WE have to kill our cousin right after he's been born."
"Maybe it was a stupid way to convince me but it did it's job! I will not let this child live when and if it will born. If you don't help me, fine but I'll do this."
"I never said I wouldn't help you. Of course I will help you! Now, where do we start?"
Chris smiled. He had known all along that Wyatt would help him but he just had to make it sure. They were facing their most challenging job yet and Chris knew that he wouldn't be able to do it on his own...
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
