Chapter 7-A Friends Help.

Chrono finishes up eating and is sound asleep in his nice cozy bed. Rosette sits near the little devils bed watching over him. 'Please get better Chrono.' Then suddenly Chrono jolts up frightened.

Rosette goes to his side. "Are you alright Chrono? Did Aion get you in your dream again?" Chrono looks to her. "Rosette.." He then hugs her. "He did get me...I tried to fight but I couldn't I'm so scared." Rosette hugs back. "It'll be jake Chrono...I'll be right here until you heal okay."

Chrono lets go of her. "Really..." Rosette nods smiling. "Yeah of course." Chrono smiles relieved. "Thank you Rosette." He then lays back down and looks to her. "You look exhausted Rosette. Maybe you should rest."

Rosette arches an eyebrow. "I'm fine its you that needs the rest...you suffered more than the first time." Chrono looks to her sadly. "But if you don't get rest...you'll be too tired to fight." Rosette smirks. "Of course not...I have plenty of energy to fight anyone."

Chrono closes his eyes and falls asleep. "I'm sorry Rosette..." Rosette blinks watching him. 'Chrono...please get better soon...so we can fight Aion...' Chrono sleeps peacefully, but then that changes when he starts tossing and turning in his sleep. Rosette watches him frightenedly. "Chrono..."

Chrono then start talking in his sleep. "No...Don't...don't touch her..." Rosette grabs Chrono by the shoulders and starts shaking him gently. "Chrono wake up...its alright." Chrono wakes up devastated. "Rosette..." She hugs him. "Shhhhh it's jake Chrono...just breath easy."

Chrono starts crying. "Rosette...he tried to get you...I tried to get to you but I couldn't move..." Rosette continues hugging him. "It's alright." Chrono looks to her. "What can I do?" Rosette looks down at him. "Don't worry about that Chrono...I'll take care of you. It'll be jake."

Rosette looks to him. "Maybe you should take a bath...a nice hot bath...the clear your head...your hair could use a good washing..." She giggles at her own comment. Chrono smiles. "Yeah that sounds like a plan. Umm Rosette?" Rosette looks to him smiling. Chrono blushes. "Can you help me wash my hair please?" Rosette smiles. "Of course I can." Chrono smiles. "Thanks Rosette."

After an hour and twenty-five minutes of bath time, Rosette wraps Chrono's elbows, torso, chest and back. "There all finished." Chrono smiles. "Thanks Rosette." Rosette smiles to him. "It's jake." Chrono sits there. Rosette takes a brush and starts brushing out Chrono's beautiful purple hair. Chrono didn't mind it at all. He liked it when Rosette brushed out his hair. For some reason it calmed him down somehow.

Rosette watches him relax. "Do you want it in a braid Chrono?" Chrono shakes his head. "I think I'm going to leave it down for a while." Rosette nods. "Okay Chrono." Chrono smiles and relaxes.

After that has been done, Chrono lays down and falls asleep instantly. Rosette sits by the bed and watches over him. Satella comes in. "How is he?" Rosette looks to her. "He's asleep. Some of his injuries aren't healing."

Satella nods and sits next to the blonde. "He's scared...Isn't he?" Rosette looks to her. "Scared? of what?" Satella looks to her. "Scared of you safety." Rosette looks to the little devil now sleeping. "Yes he is."

Satella thinks in deep thought. "Maybe we should try to fight Aion...without Chrono being with us...then we'd probably would have a chance in defeating him." Rosette blinks at the thought. "Maybe that will work...but wouldn't Aion suspect us leaving him here and he'd go after him."

Satella looks down at Chrono. "Its the only chance we have at the moment." Chrono sleeps peacefully.

Outside Chrono's room a creature sits in the tree watching the three. It was Aion but in his eagle form. "Sleep while you can Chrono. For soon you'll be mine...for good."
