Chapter 25: The Revenge of a Forgotten Foe
In the year 12,000 BC Crono, Marle, and Piccolo were waiting for the others to join them. A time portal had opened up and revealed their friends. " It's about time you guys showed up." Piccolo said. " But why are we in this time?" Android 18 asked. " Because this world is where it all started. My mother, Queen Zeal plans to use Lavos' power and make her stronger." Magus explained. " Well if we have to put an end to this, let's do it!" Crono cried out.
Before anyone could make a move they were surrounded by strange robot guards. " Halt! You are now prisiners of Sir Dalton." the guard told them. " Crono, what do we do now?" Marle asked. Crono did not respond. " Let's just play along with them, maybe Dalton can give us more information about Lavos." Goku whispered.
The robots made a pathway for their leader. " Presenting the new king of Zeal. Sir Dalton!" the robot guard yelled. " Thank you my loyal subjects. It's good to be king." Dalton said. Dalton noticed Crono and the others and walked over to them. " Well, thought you fools might have gotten rid of me, eh." Dalton said. However, no one seemed scared of him. " This guy is worse than Hercule." Krillin said and started laughing.
" Sir Dalton, what do we do with these annoying pests?" the robot guard asked. " Take them to my blackbird spaceship. I'll have the opportunity of destroying them myself." Dalton said. The robot guards led Crono and the others to Dalton's spaceship. The Blackbird spaceship was an enormous jet plane. The robots led them to Dalton's throne room inside the plane.
" Is this a plane or a palace?" Lucca thought. " I'm glad you like it since this is the last thing you'll see." Dalton told her. Gohan thought for a moment then said, " You can't be king." Dalton looked at Gohan in surprise and then asked, " What are you talking about?" "You don't have any royal blood. You're not Queen Zeal's heirs." Gohan told him. Dalton started laughing. " You humans are so foolish. The royal heirs are gone for good." he said. " Not quite." Magus said.
Dalton stared at Magus for a while, then realized who he was staring at. " Well, well, well, if it isn't Prince Janus. You've changed since I last saw you." Dalton said. " I wish I could say the same for you." Magus replied. Dalton grew angry at Magus for what he had said. " Just for that remark, you'll be the first to die." Dalton said.
Magus took out his scythe and attacked all the robots that was in his way. He aimed his scythe directly at Dalton. The aim was off. " What's wrong, don't tell me that the Prince of Zeal can't even use his own weapon." Dalton said and started laughing. " He's still weak from the poison." Goku said. " He needs more time to recover." Marle thought. Dalton did not waste any time. He set all of his magical powers and attacked Magus. Magus was barely able to stand as he fell to the ground.
" We have to do something." Crono said. " There's nothing anyone can do. Now I will truly become the King of Zeal." Dalton said. Magus tried to reach for his scythe, but was unable to. Before the final blow was struck, a familiar purple cat pounced on Dalton. " Alfador." Magus surprised. Alfador scratched Dalton's face. " You little fur ball, how dare you!" Dalton yelled.
Dalton walked over to the small cat ready to kill it. " Magus, catch!" Frog shouted unsheathing his sword and throwing it to Magus. Magus caught the Masamune sword. In full force, Magus used all of his strength and stabbed Dalton. " T... this... can't... be" Dalton said and collapsed on the ground.
Suddenly, the whole entire jet plane started to shake. " Oh great, now this place is going to blow up." Lucca said annoyed. However, another time portal appeared. Everyone stepped through the portal as the plane went crashing to the ground.
