The year is 1008. Crono, Marle and Lucca have just about
forgotten about their experience with Lavos and time travel. The Epoch
sits in a locked garage under Lucca's house. It hasn't been used for 7
years. One day when Crono is feeding his cat, Crono's mom says that
Lucca wants to talk to him today.
When Crono arrives at Lucca's house, she tells him a rather
strange story...
"Gaspar came to me in a dream last night saying the Lavos threat
is not over!" said Lucca.
"What do you mean?" asked Crono.
"Well, Gaspar said that in a parallel dimension, Lavos destroyed
the Earth in the year 999! He also explained that another Crono tried
to stop this Lavos, but failed. Our present is gone in that dimension,
so is Crono." explained Lucca as Crono nearly falls over.
"How can that be of any threat to us?" asked Crono, now with a
chill in his voice.
"Well, in the year 2350, a strange man appeared in a collapsed
city with the technology to transcend time! Lavos immediately took that
power and destroyed that man. That man was Bethlestar!"
"Ok, Lavos can now travel through time. But again how is that a
threat to us?" asked Crono insisting that Lucca get to the point.
"When we traveled through time, we went to the End of Time but
never the Dawn of Time. In the Dawn of Time, both dimensions are
united! Lavos has gone to that time and is waiting under the Earth
right now! Gaspar said that we should meet him at the End of Time for
more information." said Lucca to Crono who is now heading to Guardia
Castle.
"Then let's get Marle and go! Lavos can erupt at any time!" said
Crono.
"You get Marle, I'll prepare the Epoch!" yelled Lucca after
Crono.
******
Later, when Marle, Crono and Lucca are ready to take off, Lucca
makes a horrible discovery!
"Oh no! The Epoch can't fly! The wings are broken!" exclaimed
Lucca.
"Can you fix them?" asked Marle looking down out of the cockpit.
"No! This technology is very unusual. I have no idea how Dalton
even got them into the Epoch in the first place!" said Lucca,
frustrated that she hadn't been maintaining the Epoch.
"Well it will have to do for now, let's go!" yelled Crono to
Lucca, beckoning her to enter the Epoch.
"All right. Hopefully, we can get new wings." said Lucca,
climbing in the Epoch.
When the three arrived at the End of Time, Gaspar greeted them.
"Finally, you're here!" said Gaspar, "Now there is not much time
left, hurry to the Epoch to get your friends.
Lucca went for the Epoch, "Back soon!"
"So, Gaspar. How do we get to the Dawn of Time? There is no such
gate or selection in the Epoch!" asked Marle.
"There is one gate, but you must create it." replied Gaspar.
"CREATE IT!" exclaimed Crono, "How do we do that?"
"Simple, Lavos creates it for you. In this time right now, there
are two versions of Lavos, the Lavos that just appeared and the one you
have defeated in 1999 AD. Just use the Epoch to 1998 AD and GIVE some
power to Lavos. Lavos will grow stronger and the power will create a
gate!" explained Gaspar.
"How do we get the gate to go to the Dawn of Time?" asked Marle.
At that moment, Lucca appears with Glenn and Magus and goes back
for Ayla and Robo.
"What is going on? I was in the middle of my search for Schala
when Lucca appeared." said Magus in an annoyed voice.
"Everything will be explained shortly." said Gaspar, "Marle, your
friend Robo knows how to tune the gates. He has been doing a lot of
research on Bethlestar's work lately."
Then Lucca appeared with Ayla and Robo.
"Ayla come to see friends again. We party, dance, sing?" asked
Ayla.
"Actually Miss Ayla, I believe this is a more pressing matter."
replied Robo.
"Yes indeed it is, Robo." said Gaspar. "Now to explain to the
others what Marle and Crono already know."
******
Later, Robo explains that he needs a special energy source to
control the gate.
"Why do we have to make a new gate? Why not just transform one we
already have?" asked Lucca.
"When this dimension's Lavos was defeated, the gates disappeared!
We only have ONE gate; the one that leads to 1999 AD!" explained Crono.
"We can't risk that one!"
"Ok, lets worry about transforming the gate later. Right now,
let's go get the gate." said Magus.
"Let us use the Epoch as swiftly as possible. Time grows short."
said Glenn.
******
"Have a taste of this, Lavos!!" yelled Marle down to the ground
where Lavos lies dormant. Marle, Robo and Crono were at 1998 AD
supplying Lavos with the energy.
"Marle! Let's use Ice sword, but have Robo channel the energy TO
Lavos!" yelled Crono to Marle. "Got that, Robo?"
"Got it!" replied Robo.
"Ice sword 2!" yelled Marle. As Crono, Marle and Robo used a new
technique on Lavos. As a new gate appeared, to the surprise of all
present, Robo actually picked up the gate and put it in Epoch!
"How did you do that?" asked Crono.
"No time to explain, quickly, let's return to Gaspar." Replied
Robo.
******
"So, Robo does have quite some experience with gates, to be able
to bring one here!" says Gaspar, startled.
"Down to business, we need a new kind of energy to direct the
gate to the Dawn of Time, but it hasn't existed for aeons. I know there
was once a time before the reign of Zeal where powers of the Wind and
were used instead of powers of Lavos. This was somewhere around 14 000
BC." said Robo.
"Then let's go!" said Crono.
"Crono! Don't you remember the Epoch can't fly. If we just go to
14 000 BC. How do we know we'll be on the right continent." said Lucca.
"We look for something we not know where find? How we know if we
is on right land or not?" said Ayla.
"She does have a point, Lucca. Why don't you just go to 14 000 BC
and work from there." said Gaspar.
"Enough Chit-Chat! Let's go!" said Magus.
******
At 14 000 BC, Crono and Magus go to a nearby village and make
inquiries for someone who knows about powers and time. In the village,
a person who is looks similar to Schala replies.
"I know about that kind of thing. But I lost control of it after
I, came, here" replied the girl.
"Are you Schala?" asked Magus.
"My name, how is it that you know it?" asked Schala.
"When did you appear here?" asked Crono.
"Just after the Ocean Palace Disaster... You are Crono and he is
that prophet!" exclaimed Schala.
"There is a lot to talk about, sister" said Magus.
"Sister?!" asked Schala, "Janus..."
******
"Is there someone new out there? I sense a great power being
wasted nearby." called Spekkio to Gaspar.
"No, but hopefully Crono will bring back a friend who will help
us." replied Gaspar.
"Well I should like to meet this person. Send them to me
afterwards.
Just then the Epoch appears and Schala, Crono, Magus jump out.
After everything is explained to Schala she goes to visit Spekkio.
"Whoa! You've got power in your eyes! You were not always without
power, you once used the power of Lavos." said Spekkio.
"Yes, it's true." said Schala.
"Well I see the power beyond that past is... the power of Wind!
Ipso, Factso, Meenie, Moe, Magico!" yelled out Spekkio. "So, fortified
with magic, want to try it out?"
"Not right now, we're busy" said Magus.
Later, When Robo is directing Schala how to tune the gate, Robo
discovers something awful! Schala's power isn't enough! A power of the
sun is required, and quickly because, the gate is growing weak again!
Just at that moment, a yell is heard from the Epoch. An early ancestor
of Dalton snuck aboard the Epoch!!
"Who are you?" asked Lucca, getting this person out of the Epoch.
"My name is Deltonion. I live in the village you just left. That
trunk space is very small and those wings are terrible!!" replied the
man.
"Why are you here? And what do you want?" inquired Robo.
"I only wanted to see your technology! You just... well appeared
in our village and I wanted to know how you do it. I want nothing but
to go home. Where am I anyway?" asked Deltonion.
"You at place where no time anymore." replied Ayla.
"This is another time!!??" exclaimed Deltonion.
"Yes, now you must leave. You have no business here." said Magus.
"Wait! I... I can help you!" said Deltonion. Deltonion obviously
wanted their technology.
"Help, howeth you help us?" asked Glenn.
"Your machine, I can fix its wings! I am familiar with that kind
of thing... Please let me help you..." said Deltonion.
"I think that would be ok." said Crono, "how long do you need?"
"Only one hour!" said Deltonion.
"Go ahead!" said Lucca, "But, be careful."
******
Ten minutes later Robo said that he should dissemble Lucca's
Wondershot because it was made from the power of the sun.
"No way!!" yelled Lucca.
"But Lucca, it's the only way to stabilize the gate!" said Robo.
"I don't care! You're not taking my Wondershot apart for a rock!"
replied Lucca.
"Miss Lucca, please reconsider. The entire safety of the planet
is at steak!" said Robo.
"There must be some other power of the sun that you can use!"
yelled Lucca.
"Come on Lucca, there will be other weapons." said Marle to
comfort Lucca.
Suddenly, A blast is heard from the Epoch, it's powering up!!
"That rat Deltonion! He's no different then his descendant, Dalton!"
screamed Magus.
"Quickly! We must stop him!" said Crono, racing for the Epoch.
Crono jumps aboard just as the Epoch disappears! While the Epoch is
racing around time, Deltonion and Crono are fighting for the controls.
Crono shoves Deltonion out of his way to the controls.
"Oh No!!" yells Crono as he sees a mountain from 576 AD appear in
front of him. Crono jumps out of the Epoch before impact, but Deltonion
doesn't make it. Crono stands in a very small village which he thinks
will be Porre in the late future. The Epoch is scattered around the
Denandoro mountains in pieces.
Back at the End of Time, Lucca decides to give up her Wondershot.
"You might just as well have it. But you owe me!"
"Of course, Lucca" replied Robo, "Now do dissemble it..."
"Wait!" yelled Spekkio, "I am the master of War, I have the power
of the Sun."
"That's great!" exclaimed Schala.
"Ok Schala, on the count of three we shall use a new technique,
SolarWind!!" said Spekkio, "One... Two... Three... GO!"
Then Schala and Spekkio envelope the new gate in a hot wind as
Robo channels the energy.
"That's perfect!! This gate is now able to go to the Dawn of
Time!" says Robo.
"What about Crono, he should be back now, what if he needs help?"
asks Marle.
"Maybe we can get help at the Dawn of time." replied Lucca.
"I think you should go soon, Crono will do fine, I can see." said
Gaspar.
"Ok, let's go!" said Lucca as Glenn, Lucca and Ayla hop into the
gate.
******
At the Dawn of time Glenn, Lucca and Ayla find a very weird
setting, the area looks just like the end of time, but Gaspar is
missing and a strange version of Spekko is collapsed in the room on the
side. The pillars of light are missing and the stairs that usually lead
to the Epoch are extended and fade out about three stories down.
"Be this the Dawn of time?" asked Glenn.
"I think so. Let's go talk to that guy in the other room." said
Lucca.
When Lucca tries to wake the other guy up she finds that he was
defeated... by Lavos!
"This be'ith horrid!" exclaims Glenn.
"Ayla find paper, Spekkio writing!" said Ayla.
"What does it say?" asked Lucca, taking the paper from Ayla. "The
note says..."
Lavos is coming, I feel its strength! I feel I may be defeated by this
creature. Thus, I am writing instructions for the ones who are destined
to arrive here shortly, The stairs to your right lead to the other side
of the dimension. The Dawn of Time is splitting! The other Lavos can
not be defeated in your dimension, you must go to the other dimension
and go to where Lavos arrives at Earth and stop him there. Lavos will
destroy both worlds as soon as he gets enough power. Go!
Signed, Spekkio
"We best do it'h as he says. Cometh to the other dimension!" says
Glenn.
"I'm with you!" says Lucca.
"Ayla come to!" says Ayla.
******
Back at 576 AD Crono is looking for a gate to use to get back,
but he finds nothing. Suddenly, The Earth shakes with incredible force!
The powerful Lavos is erupting early! This Lavos is too powerful for
Crono and he is vaporised in seconds! All the other inhabitants of the
Earth are also killed! The powerful Lavos took over the world so
swiftly, the Lavos that still lies dormant didn't even notice!
A shake at the End of Time also happens and Gaspar explains, "The
other Lavos has erupted! Crono was at the era at the time and was...
well..."
"Stop! Stop!" screams Marle, "It's not true! It can't be...
Crono! NOOOOOOO!" as she runs in to the next room.
Meanwhile, Lucca, Ayla and Glenn find themselves in another
strange place. Their chronometer says the year is 1000 AD! But it
resembles the future after the Apocalypse.
"This is 1000 AD?" asks Lucca, "It can't be!"
"I believe that this Lavos is indeed more powerful! Lavos only
erupted one year ago in this dimension and everyone is already gone! No
survivors." exclaims Glenn as he looks around the city.
"This is Truce! There's Guardia Castle!" exclaims Lucca.
"That not Castle! Guardia Castle much much more big. Not fall
down!" says Ayla.
"There's my house! I must see it!"
Back at the End of time, Gaspar says that history has been
completely changed! "When the first Lavos erupts in 1999 AD, finding
the world already destroyed by another Lavos, he naturally goes after
him! The two Lavoses will fight for centuries, eventually the entire
planet will be destroyed! As you went up against the first Lavos in
1999 AD and won, this time you have failed! The changes in the timeline
will occur here shortly... you will all disappear."
"What do we do?" asked Magus.
"Just hope that Lucca, Glenn and Ayla will succeed in destroying
the other Lavos then history will be corrected." replied Gaspar.
Suddenly, a scream is heard from the other room. "Spekkio are you
all right?" asked Robo. But in the other room, Spekkio had disappeared!
"It's happening again!" yells Magus, "Gaspar is going out!" Robo
rushes in to the room in time to see Gaspar, Schala and Magus
Disappear. Marle runs in to see everyone gone, and the floor begins to
shake as a hole is ripped open and Marle is dragged in! The End of Time
collapsed on itself within seconds!
******
Meanwhile at Lucca's house in the other dimension, "Lucca, your
parents!" yells Glenn to Lucca from the other room.
"Mom! Dad! NOOO! Not them too!" yells Lucca.
"It would appear that no one has survived here." said Glenn.
"Lucca! Garage with Epoch! Here!" exclaimed Ayla. Lucca unlocks
the garage to find a battered version of Epoch.
"If we take this Epoch to 65 000 000 BC to where this dimension's
Lavos arrived we may be able to stop the world's destruction!" said
Glenn.
"Let's go! Remember, this Lavos is a lot more powerful than the
one we're used to."
"Lucca, wait! Ayla find good stuff" exclaimed Ayla, opening a
crate on the other side of the garage.
"Hey! Those are the weapons I saved for an emergency! My
counterpart must've thought the same way as I do!" replied Lucca, "Here
Glenn, this is something you've never seen before, it's a Super Sonic
Ultra Sword! And Ayla, here is an upgrade on your Iron and Bronze Fist,
it's a golden titanium fist! And here is something for me, a SuperNova
Gun!"
"Thank you, Lucca" said Glenn.
"Thanks Lucca, Ayla like new fist!" thanked Ayla.
"Ok, we have what we need, now lets go!" yelled Lucca, getting
into the Epoch. In a flash of light, the Epoch disappeared!
******
In 65 000 000 BC in the other dimension, Lucca, Glenn and Ayla
appeared. "Ioka village gone! Destroyed by reptiles!" exclaimed Ayla
"Look! There is the Tyrano Lair! Our counterparts here must've
not been able to beat it!" said Lucca.
"Lavos should fall soon, let us be on the alert!" said Glenn.
As they were talking, a group of reptiles snuck up behind them
and attacked! "Get out of here you filthy reptiles!" yelled Lucca
"Take'th this!" yelled Glenn as he plunged his sword deep into
one of the reptiles.
"Ayla not like reptiles! Have taste of new fist!" screamed Ayla
as she split a reptile in two.
"Here come more of them! Glenn, Ayla! We need to get rid of these
guys fast!" said Lucca to the others, glancing over her shoulder.
"We use'ith new technique!" asked Glenn.
"Ayla know! We use, fire, water and fist!" replied Ayla.
"Let's use, WateryFirePunch!" yelled Lucca starting the
technique. As the three used the technique, all 14 of the reptiles
disappeared!
"Look! Lavos fall!" yelled Ayla, "We must go now, yes?"
"Come on!" yelled Lucca, heading for the place where Lavos will
fall. As Lavos heads directly for the exact place where Lucca is
standing, she fires her new gun at Lavos, sending him off course. "Take
that Lavos!" said Lucca.
"We must destroy Lavos now! Both dimension's fate rests on it!"
exclaims Glenn.
"Jump in Lavos hole now!" said Ayla as the three jump in the
giant crater.
******
At the bottom of the crater, Lucca finds Lavos stealing the
world's energy, "We must stop this now! With my new gun, we should be
able to blast fight through the shell!"
"Lucca have good idea! Use now!" replied Ayla as Lucca fires a
powerful blast into the shell.
"I think'eth that this Lavos so young here, weak as a Lavos
spawn!" said Glenn.
"I think you're right! Let's get rid of him now!" yells Lucca as
the three destroy the young Lavos.
"Ayla think battle much easy! Something not right!" commented
Ayla.
"I agree." said Glenn, "We must'eth take Epoch and see if future
changed!" as the three of them make their way out of the crater and
into the Epoch. When the Epoch arrives in 1000 AD, everything is as it
should be.
"Looks like we won!" said Lucca, "Now, back to the Dawn of time
to get home!" When the Epoch makes a complete stop at the Dawn of Time,
the other Spekkio is alive and well.
"You did it!" exclaimed Spekkio.
"Do you have anything to do with the Spekkio at the End of time?"
asked Lucca, puzzled.
"That Spekkio is my distant descendant! Give him my regards when
you get to your dimension!" replied Lucca.
"We don't need this Epoch anymore. Glenn get ready to open the
gate!" said Lucca.
"Done!" replied Glenn as they departed for the End of Time.
******
When they arrived at the End of Time, they saw a terrible sight!
"The End of Time! Tis' destroyed!" exclaims Glenn.
"Now what do we do?" asked Lucca gripping on the gate's edge
above the abyss, "We have no Epoch, no pillars of light, no way to get
back into the gate because I dropped the Gate Key, no help and we're
gripping to a gate over eternity!"
"Look'ith on the bright side, Lucca." said Glenn.
"BRIGHT SIDE! WHAT BRIGHT SIDE??" yelled Lucca, amazed at the
calmness in Glenn's voice.
"Ayla think change in timeline happen soon. Ayla hope VERY soon,
loosing grip!" said Ayla.
"I.. I'm falling!" yelled Glenn as he grapples for support on the
gate.
"Glenn!" yells Ayla and Lucca together.
"Noooooooooooo! Cyrus, I shall join you shortly!" screams Glenn
as he falls deep into the black pit below.
"Ayla? How are you doing?" asked Lucca.
"Ayla loosing strength! Can not hold on!" replies Ayla, "Ayla not
want fall!"
"We can't just hang here! Can you lift me up onto the top of the
gate?" asks Lucca, thinking of a plan that might work.
"Ayla try.... Might not work!!" replies Ayla, looking up at the
gate.
"Just try! We have to make it!" yells Lucca.
"OK!" said Ayla as she grabs Lucca and swings her to the top of
the Gate.
"Ayla! I'm going to pull you up now!" said Lucca to Ayla.
"Ayla can't reach!" yells Ayla back to Lucca.
"Yes you can! Try harder Ayla!" replies Lucca as Ayla's hand
grasps hers, "Got it!" But within seconds, Ayla's hand slips from
Lucca's and she plummets into the pit, "Lucca! Me not forget..."
Lucca sat on top of the gate for what seemed hours on end, "Oh
No! The gate is fading! I'm going to fall through!" the gate
disappears! Lucca slips through and tumbles down into a deep well of a
cold, dark and frightening end!
******
At the Dawn of Time, Spekkio senses that the timeline in the
first dimension has not been changed!
"That's odd! I thought if the powerful Lavos was destroyed, both
dimensions should be safe!" thought Spekkio to himself. "Maybe I should
look in on this." said Spekkio out loud, heading for the pillars of
light. "If I remember properly, Crono and his friends had a reunion
around Fiona's Shrine in 1000 AD and talked about an Entity.
Considering I know that Entity, I should ask him for help." said
Spekkio entering a gate.
At 65 000 000 BC in the less powerful Lavos's dimension, Spekkio
arrived. Kino was outside Ioka village hunting for food when he saw
Spekkio. "You big man! Kino not like! Who you?" asked Kino.
"Come on old friend, it's me Spekko! You can remove your disguise
now." said Spekkio.
"Spekkio! It is you! I'm getting so tired of this disguise." said
Kino in perfect English. Kino then seemed to take off his skin,
revealing a gigantic figure with sparkles of power and light around
him.
"Have you sensed that the timeline has not been corrected?" asked
Spekkio.
"So! That's what it was. I'll check into this immediately!" said
the Entity, "Lavos! How annoying he is now!"
"Thank you old friend, time is of the essence! Hurry!" said
Spekkio. At that moment, the entity disappeared into a gate! The gate
opened in deep space at 66 000 000 BC, just where Lavos first appeared!
"Lavos! I have completed my test. You are no longer needed." said
the entity to Lavos.
Lavos stopped his approach to Earth and said, "Yes, oh mighty creator!
My purpose is complete. Good Bye!" at that exact second, Lavos
disappeared.
"Now all should be well in both dimensions! Now that I know Crono
and his friends are powerful enough, they can help someone that needs
help fast," said the Entity pausing for a moment, "...me!"
forgotten about their experience with Lavos and time travel. The Epoch
sits in a locked garage under Lucca's house. It hasn't been used for 7
years. One day when Crono is feeding his cat, Crono's mom says that
Lucca wants to talk to him today.

"How can that be of any threat to us?" asked Crono, now with a

"Well, in the year 2350, a strange man appeared in a collapsed

power and destroyed that man. That man was Bethlestar!"
"Ok, Lavos can now travel through time. But again how is that a

more information." said Lucca to Crono who is now heading to Guardia
Castle.
"Then let's get Marle and go! Lavos can erupt at any time!" said
Crono.
"You get Marle, I'll prepare the Epoch!" yelled Lucca after
Crono.
******
Later, when Marle, Crono and Lucca are ready to take off, Lucca
makes a horrible discovery!
"Oh no! The Epoch can't fly! The wings are broken!" exclaimed
Lucca.
"Can you fix them?" asked Marle looking down out of the cockpit.
"No! This technology is very unusual. I have no idea how Dalton
even got them into the Epoch in the first place!" said Lucca,
frustrated that she hadn't been maintaining the Epoch.
"Well it will have to do for now, let's go!" yelled Crono to
Lucca, beckoning her to enter the Epoch.
"All right. Hopefully, we can get new wings." said Lucca,
climbing in the Epoch.
When the three arrived at the End of Time, Gaspar greeted them.
"Finally, you're here!" said Gaspar, "Now there is not much time

"Simple, Lavos creates it for you. In this time right now, there

gate!" explained Gaspar.
"How do we get the gate to go to the Dawn of Time?" asked Marle.
At that moment, Lucca appears with Glenn and Magus and goes back
for Ayla and Robo.
"What is going on? I was in the middle of my search for Schala

"Everything will be explained shortly." said Gaspar, "Marle, your
friend Robo knows how to tune the gates. He has been doing a lot of

Then Lucca appeared with Ayla and Robo.
"Ayla come to see friends again. We party, dance, sing?" asked
Ayla.
"Actually Miss Ayla, I believe this is a more pressing matter."
replied Robo.
"Yes indeed it is, Robo." said Gaspar. "Now to explain to the
others what Marle and Crono already know."

Later, Robo explains that he needs a special energy source to

"Why do we have to make a new gate? Why not just transform one we

"When this dimension's Lavos was defeated, the gates disappeared!

"Just after the Ocean Palace Disaster... You are Crono and he is
that prophet!" exclaimed Schala.
"There is a lot to talk about, sister" said Magus.
"Sister?!" asked Schala, "Janus..."
******
"Is there someone new out there? I sense a great power being
wasted nearby." called Spekkio to Gaspar.
"No, but hopefully Crono will bring back a friend who will help
us." replied Gaspar.
"Well I should like to meet this person. Send them to me
afterwards.
Just then the Epoch appears and Schala, Crono, Magus jump out.
After everything is explained to Schala she goes to visit Spekkio.
"Whoa! You've got power in your eyes! You were not always without
power, you once used the power of Lavos." said Spekkio.
"Yes, it's true." said Schala.
"Well I see the power beyond that past is... the power of Wind!
Ipso, Factso, Meenie, Moe, Magico!" yelled out Spekkio. "So, fortified
with magic, want to try it out?"
"Not right now, we're busy" said Magus.
Later, When Robo is directing Schala how to tune the gate, Robo
discovers something awful! Schala's power isn't enough! A power of the
sun is required, and quickly because, the gate is growing weak again!
Just at that moment, a yell is heard from the Epoch. An early ancestor
of Dalton snuck aboard the Epoch!!
"Who are you?" asked Lucca, getting this person out of the Epoch.
"My name is Deltonion. I live in the village you just left. That
trunk space is very small and those wings are terrible!!" replied the
man.
"Why are you here? And what do you want?" inquired Robo.
"I only wanted to see your technology! You just... well appeared
in our village and I wanted to know how you do it. I want nothing but
to go home. Where am I anyway?" asked Deltonion.
"You at place where no time anymore." replied Ayla.
"This is another time!!??" exclaimed Deltonion.
"Yes, now you must leave. You have no business here." said Magus.
"Wait! I... I can help you!" said Deltonion. Deltonion obviously
wanted their technology.
"Help, howeth you help us?" asked Glenn.
"Your machine, I can fix its wings! I am familiar with that kind
of thing... Please let me help you..." said Deltonion.
"I think that would be ok." said Crono, "how long do you need?"
"Only one hour!" said Deltonion.
"Go ahead!" said Lucca, "But, be careful."
******
Ten minutes later Robo said that he should dissemble Lucca's
Wondershot because it was made from the power of the sun.
"No way!!" yelled Lucca.
"But Lucca, it's the only way to stabilize the gate!" said Robo.
"I don't care! You're not taking my Wondershot apart for a rock!"
replied Lucca.
"Miss Lucca, please reconsider. The entire safety of the planet
is at steak!" said Robo.
"There must be some other power of the sun that you can use!"
yelled Lucca.
"Come on Lucca, there will be other weapons." said Marle to
comfort Lucca.
Suddenly, A blast is heard from the Epoch, it's powering up!!
"That rat Deltonion! He's no different then his descendant, Dalton!"
screamed Magus.
"Quickly! We must stop him!" said Crono, racing for the Epoch.
Crono jumps aboard just as the Epoch disappears! While the Epoch is
racing around time, Deltonion and Crono are fighting for the controls.
Crono shoves Deltonion out of his way to the controls.
"Oh No!!" yells Crono as he sees a mountain from 576 AD appear in
front of him. Crono jumps out of the Epoch before impact, but Deltonion
doesn't make it. Crono stands in a very small village which he thinks
will be Porre in the late future. The Epoch is scattered around the
Denandoro mountains in pieces.
Back at the End of Time, Lucca decides to give up her Wondershot.
"You might just as well have it. But you owe me!"
"Of course, Lucca" replied Robo, "Now do dissemble it..."
"Wait!" yelled Spekkio, "I am the master of War, I have the power
of the Sun."
"That's great!" exclaimed Schala.
"Ok Schala, on the count of three we shall use a new technique,
SolarWind!!" said Spekkio, "One... Two... Three... GO!"
Then Schala and Spekkio envelope the new gate in a hot wind as
Robo channels the energy.
"That's perfect!! This gate is now able to go to the Dawn of
Time!" says Robo.
"What about Crono, he should be back now, what if he needs help?"
asks Marle.
"Maybe we can get help at the Dawn of time." replied Lucca.
"I think you should go soon, Crono will do fine, I can see." said
Gaspar.
"Ok, let's go!" said Lucca as Glenn, Lucca and Ayla hop into the
gate.
******
At the Dawn of time Glenn, Lucca and Ayla find a very weird
setting, the area looks just like the end of time, but Gaspar is
missing and a strange version of Spekko is collapsed in the room on the
side. The pillars of light are missing and the stairs that usually lead
to the Epoch are extended and fade out about three stories down.
"Be this the Dawn of time?" asked Glenn.
"I think so. Let's go talk to that guy in the other room." said
Lucca.
When Lucca tries to wake the other guy up she finds that he was
defeated... by Lavos!
"This be'ith horrid!" exclaims Glenn.
"Ayla find paper, Spekkio writing!" said Ayla.
"What does it say?" asked Lucca, taking the paper from Ayla. "The
note says..."
Lavos is coming, I feel its strength! I feel I may be defeated by this
creature. Thus, I am writing instructions for the ones who are destined
to arrive here shortly, The stairs to your right lead to the other side
of the dimension. The Dawn of Time is splitting! The other Lavos can
not be defeated in your dimension, you must go to the other dimension
and go to where Lavos arrives at Earth and stop him there. Lavos will
destroy both worlds as soon as he gets enough power. Go!
Signed, Spekkio
"We best do it'h as he says. Cometh to the other dimension!" says
Glenn.
"I'm with you!" says Lucca.
"Ayla come to!" says Ayla.
******
Back at 576 AD Crono is looking for a gate to use to get back,
but he finds nothing. Suddenly, The Earth shakes with incredible force!
The powerful Lavos is erupting early! This Lavos is too powerful for
Crono and he is vaporised in seconds! All the other inhabitants of the
Earth are also killed! The powerful Lavos took over the world so
swiftly, the Lavos that still lies dormant didn't even notice!
A shake at the End of Time also happens and Gaspar explains, "The
other Lavos has erupted! Crono was at the era at the time and was...
well..."
"Stop! Stop!" screams Marle, "It's not true! It can't be...
Crono! NOOOOOOO!" as she runs in to the next room.
Meanwhile, Lucca, Ayla and Glenn find themselves in another
strange place. Their chronometer says the year is 1000 AD! But it
resembles the future after the Apocalypse.
"This is 1000 AD?" asks Lucca, "It can't be!"
"I believe that this Lavos is indeed more powerful! Lavos only
erupted one year ago in this dimension and everyone is already gone! No
survivors." exclaims Glenn as he looks around the city.
"This is Truce! There's Guardia Castle!" exclaims Lucca.
"That not Castle! Guardia Castle much much more big. Not fall
down!" says Ayla.
"There's my house! I must see it!"
Back at the End of time, Gaspar says that history has been
completely changed! "When the first Lavos erupts in 1999 AD, finding
the world already destroyed by another Lavos, he naturally goes after
him! The two Lavoses will fight for centuries, eventually the entire
planet will be destroyed! As you went up against the first Lavos in
1999 AD and won, this time you have failed! The changes in the timeline
will occur here shortly... you will all disappear."
"What do we do?" asked Magus.
"Just hope that Lucca, Glenn and Ayla will succeed in destroying
the other Lavos then history will be corrected." replied Gaspar.
Suddenly, a scream is heard from the other room. "Spekkio are you
all right?" asked Robo. But in the other room, Spekkio had disappeared!
"It's happening again!" yells Magus, "Gaspar is going out!" Robo
rushes in to the room in time to see Gaspar, Schala and Magus
Disappear. Marle runs in to see everyone gone, and the floor begins to
shake as a hole is ripped open and Marle is dragged in! The End of Time
collapsed on itself within seconds!
******
Meanwhile at Lucca's house in the other dimension, "Lucca, your
parents!" yells Glenn to Lucca from the other room.
"Mom! Dad! NOOO! Not them too!" yells Lucca.
"It would appear that no one has survived here." said Glenn.
"Lucca! Garage with Epoch! Here!" exclaimed Ayla. Lucca unlocks
the garage to find a battered version of Epoch.
"If we take this Epoch to 65 000 000 BC to where this dimension's
Lavos arrived we may be able to stop the world's destruction!" said
Glenn.
"Let's go! Remember, this Lavos is a lot more powerful than the
one we're used to."
"Lucca, wait! Ayla find good stuff" exclaimed Ayla, opening a
crate on the other side of the garage.
"Hey! Those are the weapons I saved for an emergency! My
counterpart must've thought the same way as I do!" replied Lucca, "Here
Glenn, this is something you've never seen before, it's a Super Sonic
Ultra Sword! And Ayla, here is an upgrade on your Iron and Bronze Fist,
it's a golden titanium fist! And here is something for me, a SuperNova
Gun!"
"Thank you, Lucca" said Glenn.
"Thanks Lucca, Ayla like new fist!" thanked Ayla.
"Ok, we have what we need, now lets go!" yelled Lucca, getting
into the Epoch. In a flash of light, the Epoch disappeared!
******
In 65 000 000 BC in the other dimension, Lucca, Glenn and Ayla
appeared. "Ioka village gone! Destroyed by reptiles!" exclaimed Ayla
"Look! There is the Tyrano Lair! Our counterparts here must've
not been able to beat it!" said Lucca.
"Lavos should fall soon, let us be on the alert!" said Glenn.
As they were talking, a group of reptiles snuck up behind them
and attacked! "Get out of here you filthy reptiles!" yelled Lucca
"Take'th this!" yelled Glenn as he plunged his sword deep into
one of the reptiles.
"Ayla not like reptiles! Have taste of new fist!" screamed Ayla
as she split a reptile in two.
"Here come more of them! Glenn, Ayla! We need to get rid of these
guys fast!" said Lucca to the others, glancing over her shoulder.
"We use'ith new technique!" asked Glenn.
"Ayla know! We use, fire, water and fist!" replied Ayla.
"Let's use, WateryFirePunch!" yelled Lucca starting the
technique. As the three used the technique, all 14 of the reptiles
disappeared!
"Look! Lavos fall!" yelled Ayla, "We must go now, yes?"
"Come on!" yelled Lucca, heading for the place where Lavos will
fall. As Lavos heads directly for the exact place where Lucca is
standing, she fires her new gun at Lavos, sending him off course. "Take
that Lavos!" said Lucca.
"We must destroy Lavos now! Both dimension's fate rests on it!"
exclaims Glenn.
"Jump in Lavos hole now!" said Ayla as the three jump in the
giant crater.
******
At the bottom of the crater, Lucca finds Lavos stealing the
world's energy, "We must stop this now! With my new gun, we should be
able to blast fight through the shell!"
"Lucca have good idea! Use now!" replied Ayla as Lucca fires a
powerful blast into the shell.
"I think'eth that this Lavos so young here, weak as a Lavos
spawn!" said Glenn.
"I think you're right! Let's get rid of him now!" yells Lucca as
the three destroy the young Lavos.
"Ayla think battle much easy! Something not right!" commented
Ayla.
"I agree." said Glenn, "We must'eth take Epoch and see if future
changed!" as the three of them make their way out of the crater and
into the Epoch. When the Epoch arrives in 1000 AD, everything is as it
should be.
"Looks like we won!" said Lucca, "Now, back to the Dawn of time
to get home!" When the Epoch makes a complete stop at the Dawn of Time,
the other Spekkio is alive and well.
"You did it!" exclaimed Spekkio.
"Do you have anything to do with the Spekkio at the End of time?"
asked Lucca, puzzled.
"That Spekkio is my distant descendant! Give him my regards when
you get to your dimension!" replied Lucca.
"We don't need this Epoch anymore. Glenn get ready to open the
gate!" said Lucca.
"Done!" replied Glenn as they departed for the End of Time.
******
When they arrived at the End of Time, they saw a terrible sight!
"The End of Time! Tis' destroyed!" exclaims Glenn.
"Now what do we do?" asked Lucca gripping on the gate's edge
above the abyss, "We have no Epoch, no pillars of light, no way to get
back into the gate because I dropped the Gate Key, no help and we're
gripping to a gate over eternity!"
"Look'ith on the bright side, Lucca." said Glenn.
"BRIGHT SIDE! WHAT BRIGHT SIDE??" yelled Lucca, amazed at the
calmness in Glenn's voice.
"Ayla think change in timeline happen soon. Ayla hope VERY soon,
loosing grip!" said Ayla.
"I.. I'm falling!" yelled Glenn as he grapples for support on the
gate.
"Glenn!" yells Ayla and Lucca together.
"Noooooooooooo! Cyrus, I shall join you shortly!" screams Glenn
as he falls deep into the black pit below.
"Ayla? How are you doing?" asked Lucca.
"Ayla loosing strength! Can not hold on!" replies Ayla, "Ayla not
want fall!"
"We can't just hang here! Can you lift me up onto the top of the
gate?" asks Lucca, thinking of a plan that might work.
"Ayla try.... Might not work!!" replies Ayla, looking up at the
gate.
"Just try! We have to make it!" yells Lucca.
"OK!" said Ayla as she grabs Lucca and swings her to the top of
the Gate.
"Ayla! I'm going to pull you up now!" said Lucca to Ayla.
"Ayla can't reach!" yells Ayla back to Lucca.
"Yes you can! Try harder Ayla!" replies Lucca as Ayla's hand
grasps hers, "Got it!" But within seconds, Ayla's hand slips from
Lucca's and she plummets into the pit, "Lucca! Me not forget..."
Lucca sat on top of the gate for what seemed hours on end, "Oh
No! The gate is fading! I'm going to fall through!" the gate
disappears! Lucca slips through and tumbles down into a deep well of a
cold, dark and frightening end!
******
At the Dawn of Time, Spekkio senses that the timeline in the
first dimension has not been changed!
"That's odd! I thought if the powerful Lavos was destroyed, both
dimensions should be safe!" thought Spekkio to himself. "Maybe I should
look in on this." said Spekkio out loud, heading for the pillars of
light. "If I remember properly, Crono and his friends had a reunion
around Fiona's Shrine in 1000 AD and talked about an Entity.
Considering I know that Entity, I should ask him for help." said
Spekkio entering a gate.
At 65 000 000 BC in the less powerful Lavos's dimension, Spekkio
arrived. Kino was outside Ioka village hunting for food when he saw
Spekkio. "You big man! Kino not like! Who you?" asked Kino.
"Come on old friend, it's me Spekko! You can remove your disguise
now." said Spekkio.
"Spekkio! It is you! I'm getting so tired of this disguise." said
Kino in perfect English. Kino then seemed to take off his skin,
revealing a gigantic figure with sparkles of power and light around
him.
"Have you sensed that the timeline has not been corrected?" asked
Spekkio.
"So! That's what it was. I'll check into this immediately!" said
the Entity, "Lavos! How annoying he is now!"
"Thank you old friend, time is of the essence! Hurry!" said
Spekkio. At that moment, the entity disappeared into a gate! The gate
opened in deep space at 66 000 000 BC, just where Lavos first appeared!
"Lavos! I have completed my test. You are no longer needed." said
the entity to Lavos.
Lavos stopped his approach to Earth and said, "Yes, oh mighty creator!
My purpose is complete. Good Bye!" at that exact second, Lavos
disappeared.
"Now all should be well in both dimensions! Now that I know Crono
and his friends are powerful enough, they can help someone that needs
help fast," said the Entity pausing for a moment, "...me!"
