Chapter 2

Crono grunted as he hit the ground hard. Hearing him, I look up.

"There he is!" I say to myself. I peek out of the foliage and see him looking around. Suddenly, three blue imps jumped Crono. Two of them pinned his arms, while the other beat his face. There was a loud bang, and the imp had a hole in its head. As it fell to the ground, spurting blue blood, there were another two bangs and the other two fell limply to the ground dead. Crono looked around, seeming very confused. As I congradulated myself, there was a rustling noise behind me. Turning around quickly, I saw a horde of blue eaglets staring at me. I looked at them and saw that there rib cages were sticking out, and that they were plobably hungry, there was also a red glint in there eyes. I jumped out of the foilage and shot at the eaglets. As they flew at me, they fell one by one. Crono, who was staring at me in amazment, looked like he thought I was a sorcecer. Ignoring him, I kept firering as the eaglets charged me. Most of them fell, but four of them made it thru and sliced me with there beaks. Blood running down my face and arms, I flip over and fired my pistols until they were out of ammo. Unfortunatly, I ran out before they were all gone. There were two left and I decided to use the special feature in my guns. Flipping them so that the bottoms faced the eaglets, I pressed a button and the clips fired at them. Both hit there mark and the eaglets fell, dead. Ending my jump, I land in front of Crono, my black cape and blond hair soon following. Crono stared at me in silence as a rain of blood fell on us.

"Damn it! That was my last clip." I said angrily breaking the silence.

"H-How did y-you..." Crono stuttered in shock.

"A weapon I made." I lied.

"OK then....Whats your name?" He asked.

"Zaber." I said.

"Where are you from?" Crono asked.

"The village." I lied again. If I told him that I was from Truce in 1999 A.D. it could destroy the space-time continuum, or cause too many paradoxes.

"Well, whats your name?" I asked. I had already known his name for he had traveled thru time, trying to destroy the vile creature known as Lavos. Somewhere along the line, they failed. Only Lucca suvived and wrote a book called "Luccas diary of time" where she told of her adventures. When I read this, I belived it was true, but noone else did. When Lavos apperred, I found a gate and stepped thru. I have hated myself ever since because I was a coward and fled, leaving everyone behind. I was determend to stop it from happining.

"Crono." He said.

"Ok Crono, I suggest that we get out of here." I said.

"Agreed." He said. As we were leaving the canyon, more imps attacked us.

"Got a weapon?" I asked, taking out my katana.

"Yeah." He replied, taking out his. The imps attacked, and we both attacked and easily sliced them in halve.

"Lets take our leave." I said. We left the canyon without any more battles.

"Lets go to the inn." Crono suggested.

"No need. Ill know everything they will." I replied.

"Ok then, where is the millenial fair?" Crono asked.

"Millenial fair? Its the year 600 A.D. That wont be for about 400 years!" I said.

"WHAT!?!?!?" Crono yelled.

"Did you happen to know a blond haired girl?" I asked, changing the subject.

"M-Marle! Yes I do! Where is she?!" Crono asked rather loudly.

"The castle." I replied.

"Lets GO!!" Crono yelled. As we got to the entrence to the forest that surrounded the castle, the sun began to set.

"We better hurry!" I said. We began to sprint thru the forest. We soon arrived at the castle and burst thru the doors.

"Halt!!" Yelled a voice. We froze when we heard this.

"Where do you kids think your going?" Another asked.

"Check out there hair!" The first said.

"Are you some of Magus`s troopers?" The first asked.

"Like they would make the cut! Show us your stamp collection son!" The second sneered. They were both laughing wildly.

"STOP THAT AT ONCE!!!" A loud female voice demanded.

"Queen Leene!" They both yelled in suprise and hastily turned and bowed.

"These two are freinds of mine!" She said.

"Y-Yes your magesty! Please come in sirs!" The first said. Leene terned and walked away. We soon followed her and saw the king, sitting in his throne, looking really depressed.

"Ah!" He said looking at us. "I understand that you two saved my wife Leene, but she has lost her coral pin, something that she has guarded with her life. Have you seen it?" He asked.

"No your magesty." I said.

"Ah...well thank you for saving my dear Leene." He said. A maid walked up to me and Crono and said "The queen wishes to see you two." We followed her to the Queens room. She opened the door and walked in and we continued to follow.

"Leave us please." She said to the maidens.

"Yes your Magesty." One said and they turned and left the room.

"Come nearer sir." She said to Crono. Crono walked to her and she said, "Fooled you didnt I Crono? Its me, but everyone calles me Leene. Some how though, I knew you would come for me, Crono." She said blushing slightly.

"AAAWWW! How cute!" I said loudly.

"And who are you?" She asked.

"My name is Zaber. I saved Crono`s life in the canyon." I replied.

"O-Ok" Marle stuttered. She looked as she was in agony. "S-Somethings wrong!" Crono stepped closer to her. "CRONO!!! HELP ME!!" She screamed. Crono tried to hold her but in a flash, she was gone.

"What the hell?" I muttered.
