It had been harmless. A visit with Tsubasa to check on the status of one of the areas-to-be-affected had been planned to simply be a routine patrol, in order to prepare for any unrest that might erupt. They didn't expect to be caught in something that would literally change everything for them.
The next day, Chris awoke in a different bed than the one in her home in Central City. Except that wasn't her home anymore. She lived in Excelsior, and always had. The daughter of an American singer and a Japanese composer, she'd lived a fairly uneventful life. No death, no war, no forced work camps. No Val Verde. She'd grown up with her family alive and well, and with a childhood full of love.
Of course, it wasn't just her family. She'd had a childhood friend, Tsubasa Kazanari, who had recently become more than her friend. The two of them were dating, with both of them having since completed their mandatory meta military service. Now they were just regular citizens, free to do whatever they wanted with their lives.
Chris worked as a paramedic, using her healing powers to help the sick and injured. Her abilities had of course given her a leg up in this field, with her only needing her field medic training from her time in the military to qualify at such a young age. Thankfully, in all that time, she'd never seen combat, only training, but her job had exposed her to a lot of accidents. It had only tightened her resolve, however, to help people.
You might encounter Chris while she's on the job, responding to an accident. Or maybe you're the reason she's responding to an accident. Or perhaps you'll find her on one of her days off, when she's relaxing in a cafe, or perhaps visiting a bookstore or a music store. Her girlfriend is currently a musical artist, after all...she has to get all the merchandise, right?
In any case, Chris is happy. She has no reason to leave. Even the threats of a cult and a voice telling her this isn't her life to live do nothing to give her unrest. Why would it?

Everything was perfect.
