Opassa Blue, Sunset Red
Disclaimer: I don't own the characters in Chrono Cross. There I said it, happy now?!
Prolouge: Wave
The same ocean. The same tide. It meant a little more then. Traveling
between dimensions was fun. It gave some action to my normally predictable life. As
I stared at the ocean blue, I thought of her eyes, but as I gaze at the sunset I think
of another with eyes that definite, that vibrant, that color.
I stood there in a comfortable silence. On Opassa beach under the setting
sun. This is where it started and ended. Now emptiness fills the void that used to feel
complete. Another wave crashed on the sand causing my bare feet to be soaked in
it's wetness. What would I give for things to go back to the way they were even if it
was for a second.
I walked back to Arni Village expecting to see Leena and Poshul waiting
for me at the entrance. My trek down to the beach was a new ritual to me. Leena
tries to be cheerful or tries to hide the truth from herself. She knows who I think about
when I go down to Opassa. It varies sometimes between the two women with the most
impact on my life. Harle or Kid? That is the question.
I lay in bed wide awake staring at the ceiling. Not thinking of anything but
wishing for my life to end. For this endless internal battle's war to be over. ' Dream of
Moi,' a voice whispers in my thoughts. ' I'll kick your arse so hard you'll kiss the
moons!,' another voice echos. I sit up. 'What's going on?,' I thought.
Walking over to the window I gaze at the bright full moon. 'Opassa', it calls
to me. I understand. I dress quickly grabbing my swallow and heading down to the
beach. As I reached it, a bright green swirl begins to surround me. My body begins
to tingle as it takes effect. I stare forward as the moon reflects off the oceans gentle
waters. A wave begins to form, a tidal wave. It hovers above me like a wet curtain,
but I don't fear it like I did at first.
I stand there waiting for it to consume me. As my eyes closed briefly, I
heard it crash. The water didn't touch me. No, it did no such thing. It comsumed me
caressing me like a baby shielding me from harm. I felt safe, I felt complete. The
luller of sleep tempted me with it's sweet melody as I succummed to it's delightful
song. 'Who knows where I'll end up now,' was my last thought as I fell into a deep
sleep.

End Prolouge. I bet you guys are like what the hell right? Well, I'm doing this story a
bit differently. Notice how he mentions both Harle and Kid as 'special' to him? Instead
of me deciding who he ends up with I want you guys to decide. Figure it as a Survior of
Chrono Cross. I know you can't decide on this chapter but you will be able to make a
choice later. That is why it is key that you REVIEW!!. Keep checking in for other
chapters as well 'kay. I need at least 7 reviews before I continue. I need to know if
anybody is interested 'kay!
