Chapter 2: The Chrono Trigger
Kid got out of bed and went to her closet. She opened her closet and wondered what she should be seen in today. "Ah, I guess I'll wear the usual." She said, with a hint of Australian in her accent. She didn't even notice it.
Kid got out her jeans and also took out a blood red, long sleeved shirt. She rolled up the sleeves and then took a pair of white socks and slipped them on. Kid turned to leave her room, when she suddenly remembered her purple necklace. She ran back and put it around her neck.
"Good thing I remembered it, or mom would have been going on about how important it is to wear this thing." She sighed, and then headed downstairs. Her mom was cooking breakfast as usual. She took a seat on the kitchen table and had her breakfast.
Kid hated the fact that she and her mother had the same name. She found it odd, so she just went by the name of Kid. That's why everyone called her that.
"Good morning sweetie!" said Schala, smiling sweetly at her daughter.
"Good morning Mom!" said Kid. "I can't believe I'm seventeen already!"
"Yes, time is changing, and so is your life…our lives." She said, quieting down.
Kid began to get concerned. "What's wrong mom? Are you alright?"
"Kid…remember what I told you when you were younger…about your past adventure…and…him?" said Schala taking a seat across from Kid.
"Yes mom…you want me to find him…but he could be anywhere. It won't be easy." Said Kid sadly.
"Yes, I know Kid, but I haven't told you everything. I haven't told you about you and…the boy. You two fell in love, but never had the chance to express your feelings to each other. Your memories of the journey were erased before anything could happen." Schala stopped. She then turned her eyes down. "Something bad is about to happen Kid…and something horrible is coming…you must find him! Before it's too late! He is the only one that can help you now! There is going to be another time crash Kid…you have to find him."
Kid was shocked. She couldn't speak. Her mother had never said anything like this to her before. She could tell her mother was serious. Kid thought about this for a moment and asked, "Mother, where can I find this boy? I don't even know what he looks like. He could be anywhere!"
"I can't tell you where he is or when you will find him, but I can tell you what he looks like." Schala stopped and breathed for a while. "He has beautiful blue eyes, eyes that belong to the sea. His hair is of the same color. Upon his head, is a red bandana of beautiful golden designs, and around his neck is a tiny necklace. He is around your age."
"Okay, but do you happen to know his name?" she asked.
"I'm sorry Kid, but I do not know of his name, but if you find him, tell me his name, and it will come to me." She said.
Kid nodded and then turned to the clock and noticed that she was late for school. She quickly drank her glass of water and gave her mom a kiss on the cheek. She said goodbye and closed the door quickly behind her.
"Good luck, my daughter." Whispered Schala.
Kid walked on her way to school when she noticed that there were only a few people around the place. "Hmm…I must be really late then. I better get going." Kid walked about a mile or so and arrived at the courtyard of the school. As usual, there were a lot of rumors going around.
Kid was about to enter the main building when she heard a chuckle. Kid turned her head up at the roof and caught a glimpse of a small figure. It looked like a human, only dressed in a rather strange costume. Kid tried to move backwards so she could take a better look at the figure on the roof but bumped into someone.
Kid would have fallen flat on her face if the stranger hadn't caught her. "Whoa! Are you okay?" the boy asked letting her go.
Kid dusted herself and look up at the boy. She gasped. "Can this be the boy that my mother was talking about? But he doesn't have the bandana."
"Um…I'm fine…thanks." She said feeling a little embarrassed.
"It's okay, but just watch where you're going next time." He said smiling at her.
Just then, a gust of wind blew sand straight at them both. People around the place were screaming. Then it stopped.
"Ah man! My eyes are watering!" he said, pulling little red cloth with golden designs on it, out of his pocket.
"Huh? Hey! That's the bandana! It's just like the one my mother was talking about." Thought Kid.
The boy rubbed his eyes, and stuffed the cloth back into his pocket. "Much better."
Kid stared at him for a while and then said, "May I know your name?"
"Hmm? Oh, I'm Serge, and may I know yours?" He replied.
"Schala Zeal." She said, "But just call me Kid."
Just then the school bell rang, gathering the students inside the building for another day of school.
Kid smiled at Serge, and said, "Well, I guess we'll have to be going now."
"I hope to see you later, Kid. It's been nice talking to you." He said smiling.
