Hello one and all to 'Our Fight'(Still working on the title...), the fourth fan fiction I've published! And for those of who who read my other stories, yes, I'm keeping track of the order in which I publish my stories.

Any who, this story is actually based on a theory (I guess?) that I and, I think, some other people in the CFV community had come up with. Which only grew after seeing episode 25 of 'CFV G: GIRS Crisis'. Basically, Chrono had met the units of 'Gear Chronicle' at a younger age with some sort of power and something had happened causing him to forget them. Episodes 3, 46 and 48 of 'CFV G' (Season 1) only added to this. And if I forgot to include any other episodes of significance I'm sorry, but the one I already listed seemed the most memorable and important to this 'theory' to me.

So with that out of the way, here's the prologue to 'Our Fight'! (Seriously, really need to work on the title. We'll see if it fits as the story goes on.) Hopefully I get this published before episode 26 of 'CFV G: GIRS Crisis' is here...

Disclaimer: I don't own 'Cardfight Vanguard' in any way what-so-ever. I'm just a fan with an overactive imagination, this story is one of the results of that.

Started: 4/3/16-Finished: 4/4/16

...

Today was another ordinary day on their planet. No Void, no Link Joker, no threat was hanging over their peaceful world, for once. The inhabitants of Cray could finally enjoy life without any disturbance...

"WHAA!"

...Most of the time.

Steam Maiden Jusil and Heart Thump Worker peaked out from behind some of the many trees surrounding the Dark Zone's ruins at the sound of the cry. Earlier Chronojet Dragon had put the two in charge of looking after the younger Gear Chronicle units while he and some handful of the other units visit the United Sanctuary. Jusil could understand why Heart Thump was chosen for the task, but for her she couldn't figure out. According to Smokegear Dragon it had something to do with that 'little' prank she pulled on their leader some days before. It wasn't her fault he gave her the opportunity to do so!

Aside from sulking about her 'punishment', everything had been going smoothly for the Gear Chronicle units. That is, until they noticed that Chrono Dran and their guest was missing. After Jusil had calmed Heart Thump from his mini, Jusil gave a small laugh, heart attack, the two units immediately ran out to find the missing duo, leaving a reluctant Steam Maiden Uluru in charge of the rest of the young units.

Honestly, thought Jusil thought, Chrono Dran is always dragging the kid around with him and, on more than one occasion, risked the other clans discovering their 'little secret' and putting him in danger. And it really didn't help that pretty much EVERY Gear Chronicle unit was extremely overprotective of the four year old human.

Jusil sighed as she and Heart Thump walked, floated in the small machine's case, towards the crying child and panicking Chrono Dran.

"There you two are!" The female unit shouted in irritation. "Do you have any idea how long we've been looking for you two?" Next to her Heart Thump floated in front of the human child in an attempt to calm him down. "And not only that, Chrono Dran, you got the kid hurt!" Said unit winced at her scolding tone.

"But..." Chrono Dran looked at the ground. "He really wanted to go exploring..."

Jusil gave the small dragon a long look before sighing and patting him on the head.

"I know you want to keep him happy, but you gotta know when something is safe or not for him."

"Sorry Drani..." The two units looked towards the younger boy, who was holding Heart Thump in his small arms and slightly hiding behind said unit. "I got you in trouble..." Chrono Dran shook his head.

"Don't worry, it's not your fault. I shouldn't have put you in harm's reach."

"But..."

"...ono..." The four occupants of the field slightly jumped at the distorted voice. "Ch...o..." The human child looked down sadly as Jusil gave a sad smile.

"Sounds like your Papa's here kid."

"Already?" Whined Chrono Dran.

"I don't want to go..." From the four year olds arms, Heart Thump gave a series of whirrs, clicks and whistles.

"Heart Thump's right kid." Said Jusil. "Your folks will get worried if they can't find you. Besides," Jusil knelt down in front of the red-headed boy and wiped a tear from his emerald eyes. "You belong on Earth, not Cray Chrono. And we could always visit you on your world." She finished with a wink. Chrono looked up at the older unit shyly before nodding and letting go of Heart Thump.

"Hey Chrono!" Shouted Chrono Dran. "Remember your promise. When you're old enough to be independent," He grinned. "You'll come and live with us on Cray!" Chrono looked at the Gear Chronicle units and gave a large smile.

"I will!" Closing his eyes in concentration, Chrono began to fade away from his friends' sight as he returned to Earth. Once he opened his eyes, he found himself in the small park Papa and Auntie brought him to.

"There you are kiddo!" A pair of large arms scooped up the now laughing child and place him on his shoulder. "Did you have fun with your imaginary friends?"

"Drani and the others are real!" Chrono pouted. Ribe Shindou gave a hearty laugh and ruffled his son's hair.

"Sure, sure." He said. "Come on, Miroku was starting to get worried about you." Chrono smiled.

"Okay!"

"Gear Chronicle is real..."

"Now... grant me my wish!"

"Kid, run!"

"Don't worry, we'll always be here to protect you..."

"No..."

"...Always."

"CHRONO!"

...

And that's the prologue to 'Our Fight'! (Seriously, that title really doesn't sit right with me...) Hope you enjoyed it. From the episodes already out, I think I have plenty for the next chapter and maybe the next depending on what I decide to do. I'm mostly waiting for 'CFV G: Stride Gate' to start so I might not write anything until a few episodes are out. Leave a review if you want to!

Until The Next Raid!
