Kid walked over to the door of the Hideaway, gesturing for Leena to come with her, and exited, running off toward the giant willow tree. It was born right atop the highest hill on that Hermit's small island, the perfect place to sit and watch the sunset. Unfortunately, though, Kid and Leena had missed the sunset. The stars were out, though, and Kid stared into them with a twinkle in her eye. "I was the girl who stole the stars..."
"Kid, what's this all about, hmm?" Leena said. "Why doesn't Serge know you're--"
"That's why I came 'ere, to tell ya that Serge can't know where I'm goin'. I don't even know, 's truth. But if he knew I came to see ya, well, he'd be on me tail faster than ya could blink." Kid hugged her knees.
Kid...
"I understand, I think, Kid. I won't tell him."
Kid looked skyward, and all around. Huh? she thought.
Kid...
It was a different voice, now.
Kid, it's time...
"Time to what?! WHA~~~T?!" Kid shouted, shooting up from her seat on the grassy mound. Leena nearly fell over by the sudden jolt of movement.
It's time...
To return to your homeland...
"My what...?" she whispered, more calmly now.
Leena tugged on Kid's skirt, " 's wrong, Kid?"
You have to go back...
They're waiting for you...
Kid shook her head, confused. "Go where?"
"Kid-san, what--"
Go back...
To Chronopolis...
"Chrono-- ..... Why? I don't come from there...?" She mused.
Kid...
"What already? WHAT is wrong?!" Leena shouted, flailing her arms every which way. "Kid, Serge is gonna be here in a little while!"
Kid...
It was yet another voice.
You must come back...
"But I dunno how to get there! It's frickin' 100 miles away from 'ere!" Kid stomped her foot as Leena's doorbell rang, and she climbed up into the tree. She whispered, "I don't know what yer talkin' about. I don't know how I can hear ya. I don't know who ya are. But, long as you can answer me this, I'll go to Chrono-what's-it's-face."
Yes, Kid...
"What was the final attack I used on TimeDevourer?" she snapped.
RedPin...Your level 5 Tech Skill...
Kid, go to Chronopolis...
We...They're waiting...
Kid shook her head again, her arms waving like Leena's had, mindful of the clumps of willow leaves surrounding her. "Hold on, hold on, hold on," Kid began, taking a deep breath, "Who's we?" She saw the bright red and yellow bandana of Serge and Leena's orange hair. It was Leena and Serge all right, who were sitting beneath the tree and talking now. Bugger! I'm screwed! she cursed to herself. She whispered very, very softly, so she could barely hear herself. "What do I do know? I'm...err...uh...um..."
We shall provide a distraction...
But this is your only favor...
The rest...
Is up to you...
KID!!
Serge and Leena jumped, as did Kid. Now everyone could here the voice. What was going on? Thanks, eurh, voice.. That eerie voice seemed angered now, and rain poured down from the sky. Thunder boomed and echoed through the sky.
SERGE, THE CHRONO TRIGGER!
What's this guy doin'? Kid knelt on the tree branch, readying herself to jump. Serge was dragged by Leena inside.
KID, GO NOW!! ...SERGE, DO NOT RUN AWAY! YOU ARE THE KEY!
She jumped down from the tree, dashing through Leena's backyard, her mockisins sloshing in the mud. Is he serious about the key thing? She hopped the white fence and bolted toward the drifting Porre boat, formerly docked at the nearby shore. Her arms in a spread eagle position, she dove into the water to catch the runaway water vehicle, and climbed in, letting the storm take her anywhere, and fell to sleep with the sounds of the clashing waves as a lullaby...
"Kid, what's this all about, hmm?" Leena said. "Why doesn't Serge know you're--"
"That's why I came 'ere, to tell ya that Serge can't know where I'm goin'. I don't even know, 's truth. But if he knew I came to see ya, well, he'd be on me tail faster than ya could blink." Kid hugged her knees.
