Chrono Shock - .01
Sometimes, history takes a turn for the worse, causing a jolt, or shock in time. However, this shock wave can sometimes ripple into different worlds, forcing bystanders to act in a struggle they never expected. This is one.
The Stranger
Lizard Rock was home to grave which beared the name of a young man named Serge. But to the new inhabitant of the rock, it didn't matter. He was just looking for some sign of civilization. He looked at his sides, checking for the laser gun, communicator and his favorite sword - the Eternal Sphere. Before he could get a foot of the rock, his communicator bleeped.
"Claude, you there?" a feminine voice asked.
"Yeah Rena. Right now I'm looking for some people to talk to. When I meet up with someone, I'll call back, I promise." He assured her.
"Good." Rena said. "If this planet is hostile, we'll beam you up if needed."
The communicator blinked off, and Claude walked down the slope on his way to exit. Just before seeing the rays of the sun outside, he looked down and spotted a scale, and a very colorful one at that. He lifted it up to his face and studied it, then put it in his pocket. The whole world of Gaia lay before him, and he looked everywhere for some sign of a town. Lizard Rock gave him a great view of a nearby town. A very small one, but one which showed signs of life. He made his way down, and began his trek to the small civilization.

The Reticent Hero
The bed never felt better, especially after the dreams he had been having the past week or so. They involved him running from some unknown force. Some unseen danger. He shrugged it off and jumped out of bed, walking into the town of Arni. He made his way down to the town pier, where his friend, Leena stood, watching some children as usual.
She turned to him and smiled, her auburn colored hair flowing in the wind, along with her colorful, yet conservative dress. She looked down at the necklace she'd gotten from this young man before, and noticed his usual stoic look.
"Hi Serge." She said, and turned back to her post. Serge nodded and walked down to an old man sitting in a boat. He turned to see Serge looking down at him.
"I reckon ya want to go somewhere?" he asked. Serge nodded and told him Termina.
"Oh, the Vilith Army must be in the mountains excavating again." He said. Serge nodded and handed the elderly man some money. The boat began its trek to the larger city of Termina, where Serge was to go to Viper Manor and meet with the aging general. There were talks of his taking the helm or a very lofty position alongside General Viper. The boat came into the port, and Serge departed, his swallow in hand.

The Unfortunate Warrior.
Delton, a very well known warrior focused on his target in Guldove. It wasn't moving, but did emit a very distinct smell. After covering the strategies, he finally chose his course of attack.
"For you my friend, I'll be needing no weapon." He sheathed his sword and wrapped his hands around the target.
"You're mine!" he shouted and attacked the enemy - a freshly prepared double cheeseburger.
"So, is it good?" the chef asked.
"Yeah, Kaden, you always do a good job." Delton said, still gobbling. "It's silly of you to ask!"
At the other end of the bar a green figure sat at the very corner, holding a pool stick and watching a dwarf trying to reach the pool table, barely able to balance the stick. The green figure, very thin and much taller than the dwarf sighed impatiently.
"Look, do you need any help in reaching it? I can go get a box - "
"Nonsense!" the dwarf interrupted. "One more crack, and this pool sticks gonna find a spot on your leafy hide!"
"Yeah, considering you can even reach me, little man." The plant like man quipped.
"That's it!" the dwarf hollered and dove straight at the opponent and swung. The green man easily sidestepped him and reached out his hand, releasing a vine and catching the dwarf by the ankle. The tiny fellow was thrown across the bar and hit Delton's back, causing him to drop the food onto the floor.
"All right, who did that! That was a perfectly good sandwich!" Delton said, halfway sacking on a chunk of cheeseburger, tiny bits dropping on the dwarf's helmet.
"Ey! Ey! Watch were you're dropping the crumbs!" the dwarf said, sitting down. Delton looked down and saw the diminutive fellow sitting on the ground, shaking his small fist. His eyes were concealed, only his bushy mustache and helmet were noticeable.
"Kelf, quit trying to start fights and try to actually play pool." Kaden shook his head. "And as for you, whoever you are, we don't allow fighting, so consider it a warning."
The plant like man nodded, and walked to Kaden, handing him the pool stick. Kelf, obviously not getting the message, edged in on the green man, stepping over Delton's shoes.
"Yeah, or next time, I'll be doing this!" he jumped up and brought back his pool stick so far that it struck Delton on the head. When Kelf brought it down, the attack quickly became non-effective, as there was no stick. The green colored man swung his fist at the airborne dwarf, but missed, connecting with Delton as Kelf dropped to the ground.
"Ha! Ya couldn't hit the broadside of a ship!" Kelf taunted, dancing around. Disgusted, Kaden threw a frying pan at him, missing and smashing Delton's foot, causing him to jump up and down. Kelf stomped on the green man's foot, then uppercut him, sending him to the ground. Unfortunently, for him the second projectile attempt met its target, sending Kelf to the ground and thus, ending the skirmish. Delton was still jumping around, but Kaden helped him sit down.
"What was that all about?" Delton said, eyeing the green man and dwarf down.
"Just a little skirmish you were unfortunate enough to be in." Kaden said, getting up. "I'll go get you some ice for the bruises."
With a nod Delton sat down, his hands covering his face.
"I'm just glad I didn't get a full course meal." He said, holding his hurting and throbbing head.
