Kid woke the next morning to the sound of birds singing, her left leg draped over the side of the boat, a gash on her right shoulder. The boat was parked up against the sandy shore of Water Dragon Isle, and lively, gentle music was playing. She sat up, looking around, to meet Razzly, face-to-face. "Gah!" Kid was so startled that she fell backward into the stationary vehicle, each limb hanging over the appropriate side. She realized it was just the faerie and shrugged. She stood up and clambered ashore, removing her waterlogged boots, and to her disadvantage, having to face the magical child.
"Kid! We~e-hoo!" Razzly giggled, "It's just so great, you came just in time! Why are you here? Oh, the faerie festival is beginning! Come on, Kid! Sergie and Leena are coming sometime too!"
"Whoa no! Uh-uh, no way, I can't let me mate Serge see me!" Kid exclaimed.
Razzly raised an eyebrow, her head cocked to one side, "Why?"
She ignored the faerie, kept trodding her feet through the sand. She dragged her worn-out self to the nearest pond inside Fairyvale and soaked her bare feet in it. Wherever ya are, voices, I'm waitin' fer ya...
"...Kid, Sergie was on the phone last night saying he missed you and he didn't know where you were. What's going on?" Razzly prodded.
I miss ya too, mate... The blonde "bloody rose" kicked her legs back and forth in the crystalline water. "...Don't tell 'em I was 'ere. I'm runnin' away. I don't need 'em and he don't need me...I ain't about to let some blue-haired boy be slowed down by me."
Kid...
You have made it rather far...
Ah, the good ol' voices again. "So how've ya been?"
Fine...and I see you've done well also...
"Good, but that's besides the point."
"Razzly, not now."
"I'm telling Sergie you were mean to me!" she threatened.
Kid growled in retort. "You do that and I'll have yer head on a silver platter, Raz!"
"....So~~rry...." Razzly apologized, though she wasn't sure what for.
Kid...
"Raz, please, just do this fer me, eh?" Kid began. "I'm runnin' 'way, like I said. I'm...goin' to..."
"Where?"
Kid...
Don't hold back...
Tell her...
"...'Member that weird high-tech city? Chrono--...uh..."
Razzly was concerned. "Chronopolis?"
"Ugh...yeah. There's these voices, see, and they're tellin' me to go there. I am, like I said, but..." She shook her head. It was something she would do often now, since those voices started speaking to her. She'd get confused in mid-sentence, stop talking, shake her head. "...But..." The sun was all the way up now, its cloud cover fading away, the heat and haze setting in. Kid glanced back to her boat, pushed up against the shore. "...But...Listen, I wrote Serge a note, sayin' I drag 'em down and slow 'em up and stuff. So's I'm takin' a breather 'ere, 'way from 'em. Fer a lo~~~ng time. 'Til I'm ready to listen and he's ready to speak. So Raz, can ya just...don't tell 'em, 'kay? Don't tell 'em I was 'ere, or I'll...he'll find me. I dun want 'em to just yet. I need some time to sort thin's out," No, not really...I'm just plain confused.
That's a good start...
Kid...
Now you must choose...
Will you go ahead on your way again...
Or stay and hide?...
"I'll do it," Razzly said. She flew in circles around the blonde, giggling still, green fairydust trailing behind her, sparkling. Rosetta came over to the two and asked Razzly what was going on. "Umm...can Kid stay here fer a while? When Sergie and Leena come, she has to hide, Rosie."
"Don't call me that" Rosetta ridiculed, waving her finger, "Kid can stay as long as she likes. So, Kid, why exactly do you need to hide when Serge and Leena arrive? I find it quite strange that you have to--"
Kid shook her head. Again.
"...Okay...sorry I asked. I'll keep watch at the ---"
"Sergie and Leena are here! Sergie and Leena are here!" Razzly shouted, her hands cupped around her mouth.
Kid, go climb up the ladder over there, head inside through the ponds, go down, under the waterfall, and you'll be at a large pond. Got it? Okay, go through the door to your left and you'll be in the Water Dragon's lair. Stay in there. It's empty now so you can--"
"Got it! Raz, Rose, tell Leena where I am so she can come; don't let Serge go with her!"
Kid ran off to the ladder and took the directions Rosetta gave her into good use. Rosetta and Razzly watched her leave, then Rosetta sighed, "You got her calling me Rose and Rosie, Raz. And every time I've talked so far, I get inturrupted. Ain't it just a beau~tiful day, now. ...Oops..."
"The elders'll let it go this time, Rosie. Just watch out for Kid, block the entrance, I'll tell Leena..."

Read and Review if you want me to continue, because I'm not so sure of this story...
I know this chapter was really short, but suspense kills, doesn't it? ^_^
I've had so many unsuccessful stories, and I want this one to work.
