Changing The Past

Chapter 2

Sweat dripped down Chris's face as his breath was uneven. "Chris? Are you ok?" The brunette looked over in panic, reaching for anything that was nearby that he could use as a defense weapon. Thankfully, his gun was on a desk that he was behind that looked rather familiar. He aimed the weapon at the person who was talking. "Woah woah! Chris! Calm down! It's just me!" It was Jill. But she looked a lot younger and she was wearing her old S.T.A.R.S. uniform. Even after seeing that it was Jill, he kept the gun aimed at her. He took a peak behind her, seeing his old comrades. Barry, Joseph, Brad, Rebecca, everyone. Chris couldn't believe it. This wasn't real. Joseph slowly started to make his way over to Chris, planning on taking his gun. But Chris was quick to spot him, aiming the gun at him. "Don't move! You stay right there!" He shouted in panic. "Chris! What is wrong with you? I don't know what kind of nightmare you were having but-" "How did I get here? What's going on?" Chris asked, cutting off Jill. "What are you talking about? Chris, just give me the gun then we can talk, ok?" Barry walked over to Chris, but Chris aimed the gun at him. "Stay right there! We'll talk from here." He stated. Barry sighed softly before nodding. "Alright alright, we'll talk from this distance, ok? Just lower your gun." Chris hesitated for a moment before slowly lowering his gun. "How did I get here?" He asked. "You drove here." "No I didn't. I was fighting Wesker. He was spreading viruses and Uroboros and-" "Chris, none of that exists. You were having a nightmare. Captain Wesker wouldn't do that, trust me." Barry argued back. As if saying his name summons him, Wesker came through the door. Chris quickly brought his gun back up, aiming it at Wesker. "Chris!" Barry shouted. Chris didn't move, keeping the gun aimed at the blonde. Wesker didn't flinch or have any reaction. His expression remained the usual, cold. He crossed his arms as he stared at the brunette. "Chris, what is the meaning of this?" He asked. "Chris, put the gun down." Jill ordered. He looked between Jill, Barry, and Wesker in panic. Though he didn't focus on the others. Because of this, Joseph was able to snatch the gun from Chris's grip. "I'm sorry, Captain. Chris is acting very strange. I don't think he's feeling well. He aimed his gun at us as well." Jill explained to the blonde. Wesker furrowed his eyebrows slightly at Chris before walking towards him. As he walked forward, Chris walked backwards, until his back hit a wall. "Relax, Chris." He mumbled as he raised his hand. Chris instinctively flinched, excpecting a slap or a punch. But instead, Wesker put his hand on the other's forehead. "Hm...it feels like you have a high fever. Go home, Chris. That's an order." Wesker pulled his hand away. Chris remained against the wall, fear in his eyes. "He was also having a nightmare, sir. He was saying of how you and him were fighting each other." Jill informed. "That would explain his behavior towards me right now." Wesker mumbled. "Sir, high fevers can also cause confusion and hallucination. So that can explain why he is confusing what's reality or not." Rebecca explained. Wesker nodded in understandment. Barry walked over to Chris, grabbiing his wrist. "I'lll take Chris home, sir." "I'll go with you. I can treat his fever." Rebecca stated. Wesker hummed, "Rest well, Redfield." He said before returning to his office. Chris suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head, causing him to groan in pain. "I know, Chris. Come on." Barry brought Chris home, Rebecca joining them. Once they arrived at Chris's home, Barry brought him to his bedroom. Chris felt like its been forever since he's been here. "Lay down, Chris." Barry instructed, which the brunette obeyed. Rebecca stood beside the bed, taking out her medical things. "So Chris, can you tell me more about this nightmare you had? If you can still remeber it." Rebecca asked as she fiilled a small measuring 'cup' with medicine. "I...I don't remeber much..." He lied but continued, "Wesker he...infected a whole area with a parasite and went on a rampage about being a god and stuff like that. He went as far as to infect himself with a virus to give him inhumane abilities. It didn't make him a god but it did make him a monster.  Then we fought." He explained. "Damn, that sounds like a harsh nightmare." Barry mumbled. Chris started to tear up slightly, "He killed so many people, so many comrades...." In his head he would finsish with 'all because of me'. Barry gave Chris a side hug. "It's ok, Chris. You don't have to be afraid of that happening. The captain would never do that." He reasurred. Thankfully, this was a dream, or so Chris thought. That's the reason why he shared that information since he didn't think it would leave any effects. Rebecca handed Chris the medicine, which Chris took, handing the small cup back to her. "Thank you. Oh and I'm sorry for aiming my gun at you guys. I was just so confused with what was happening." Barry and Rebecca smiled at the brunette. "It's ok, Chris. We understand. And I'm sure that the others do as well." Rebecca replied, Barry nodding in agreement. "Thank you." Chris replied before yawning softly. He just wanted to sleep now. Maybe he'll wake up back at the valcano. "Well, you get some rest, Chris. Rebecca and I will be here when you wake up." Barry reached over, pulling the blanket over Chris, who nodded and slowly fell asleep. It wasn't long before the brunette woke up. It was now getting dark outside. That wasn't necessarily a problem though. What the problem was, was that he was still in this 'dream'. He sat up then looked around, taking a moment before getting out of bed and going to the door.
