Chapter 3: Silver
Disclaimer: I do not own Chrono Cross, or anything related to it. Square owns it not me, so don't even think of getting me in trouble.
* = Author's note
*Ok, Light Saber... Glenn is most likely (98% chance) going to be in this fic. Mmm... I dunno what he's gonna do, but he's definitely going to be there at the end, so don't worry! ^__^ *
*Oh yeah, TW & Christi. Everyone here was reborn, and doesn't have the same personalities that they used to have, but don't worry, she wont act like a kid later....ahem... oops... spoiler...*
*OK! IT'S FIXED!!*
Serge stood, unscathed engulfed in nothingness. He stood for a bit,glanced around and started walking. Nothing seemed to change as he walked, but he was moving, in a way.
Then, he heard something moving behind him. He turned around quickly, to find the girl with the silver hair that had been staring at Kid and himself that very morning. She smiled and giggled:
"Serge ... soon ... very, soon..." she grinned "It will begin..."
"What? What will begin?" he said clenching his fists
"You will see..." said the girl, back flipping into the darkness
"What is this?! What are you talking about?!" his screams faded with the sound of the chirping birds.....
Serge's eyes snapped open, only to find he was in the nurse's office.
"Jeez! You scared me!"
Serge turned around to find Kid, sitting next to the bed, with a relieved look on her face.
Serge looked a bit frightened, and a little shaken. His eyes were wide, and he was breathing heavily. He blinked a few times, and calmed himself down.
The door creaked open, and a woman with blueish-purple hair walked in with some drinks on a tray. She had a monocle, set on her one of her eyes and a strange look on her face. She set the tray down on the table next to the bed, adjusted the monocle and said:
"Sorry to keep you vaiting...."
*Guess who.... oh you have GOT to know! *
"I am Nurse Luccia, and you look live you've had a nasty bump...."
*Now that I think about it more, it's scary to think of her as a nurse O_o.....*
"Y-yeah...." he said smiling awkwardly
"Zis place iz falling apart at ze zeams ... ever since the principle left...." she said slowly
"Huh? The principle isn't here?" he asked pulling himself up, rubbing his bandaged head.
"Yeah, the principle has been gone for three years ... as a result the students have practically taken over the school..." said Kid supporting her head with her hands.
"So, that's why the other students didn't do anything ... they had no one to go to...." said Serge
"Yes, ... it iz total chaos vor us teachers ... ve don't know vat to do anymore..." Luccia said removing Serge's bandages.
Serge winced a little, feeling his open wound in the air. Luccia ran her fingers around the wound, and started wrapping fresh, blood free bandages around his head.
"Hmmm ... your a tough one zat you are ... but if our young lady over here had not brought you here quickly, if could have become more serious....." Luccia said smiling over at Kid.
Kid jumped up at the thought, and turned a little bit red in the cheeks.
"Um ... well, it wasn't that great..."
"Yes, it vas ... don't be so modest, dear..." said Luccia rubbing alcohol on Serge's head.
"Heheh ... guess I owe ya one..." Serge closed his eyes and smiled.
"No! I didn't do it alone... Ms. Mettalium helped me..." she said looking at the floor
Suddenly, the door swings open. Ms. Mettalium pokes her head in and in an annoying voice said:
"Did I hear my name?"
Serge, Kid and Nurse Luccia stared at Ms. Mettalium in horror for a few seconds, blinking.
Ms. Mettalium smiles and walks over to Serge.
"I see your looking better, my fine friend," she says patting him on the head, quite roughly mind you.
"OWW! Not so hard!" Serge yelps, closing his eyes tightly.
Kid face faults.
"Well, you certainly can't go to your other classes with this big of a bump. I think it would be wise if you went home. Do you agree, Ms. Luccia?" Ms. Mettalium turns to Luccia.
"Um ... ahem ... yes, I agree vith Ms. Mettalium ... it vould be for ze best," she said washing her hands in the sink.
"Um ... do you think it would be okay if I went home, too?" Kid's voice squeaked from the back of the room.
Everyone directed their attention towards Kid, and there was a long hush. Then Ms. Mettalium said:
"I don't see a problem with that, do you Nurse Luccia?" she smiled at the nurse.
"Hmmm... I don't think it vould du any harm..." she put a hand to her chin "Vhy not? Go on you two."
Serge looked astonished, why did she want to go out of school just so ... well he didn't know exactly what Kid wanted to do.
Kid smiled and got up from the metal chair he sat in "I'm gonna get my stuff then!"
Kid ran out the door, and Luccia yelling back that Kid should call her mother.
Serge sat for a moment, looking down at the sheets he was set in. He didn't understand why Kid was skipping school to go with him. They had just met this morning, there was no reason for her to be doing this, they barely knew each other. He began to feel his heart beating faster and harder. Then Ms. Mettalium's voice broke through his thoughts:
"Can you get up all right?" she lowered herself down to eye level with him.
"Yeah." He said blankly turning his face towards her.
"Then, you should get your things as well," she said smiling again.
When she smiled she opened one of her eyes. Serge moved his head back a little. Her eyes were purple, and empty. They had thick black slits placed in the middle of them, and seemed to be almost, evil.
She closed the eye again, smiled and walked out of the room.
Serge was sweating heavily, and he had to sit for a few seconds to get a hold of himself.
He gulped and wearily crawled out of the bed. He walked out into the hallway, the classes were still going on, and the halls were bare. He walked down the hall to his locker, Kid stood waiting for him there.
Kid smiled and said:
"It's good that you can walk now."
Serge smiled an uneasy smile, and felt his heart beating again. He looked away and put this combination in his lock. He removes his things from his locker and swings his back pack over his shoulder.
"Shall we go?" he said beginning to turn.
"Wait a sec." Kid said from behind him.
Serge turned around, his heart beating thunderously again.
"Who's house are we going to?" Kid asked
"Well, we have to stop by my house if we're gonna go to your house..." Serge said.
"Why's that?" Kid asked
"My overprotective mother who thinks my dad is gonna--" Serge stopped in his tracks, his face turned aguishly sad.
"What about your dad?" asked Kid walking up to him and desperately trying to look into his eyes.
"Never mind. I just want you to meet my Mom," said Serge quickly turning around.
Kid stood for a few seconds, then caught up with Serge again.
***********************************************************************
Kid and Serge head down a few blocks and stop at Serge's house. The moving van still sat outside the house, parked near the side of the road. The house was a normal two story house, white with turquoise trim, along with a small balcony....
***********************************************************************
"Mom?" Serge beckoned as he and Kid walked in the door.
The house was filled with cardboard boxes, all with labels of who they belong to or which room they belong in. Serge looked around, as Kid stands back trying to get a view of the place.
"Mom?!" Serge yells directed up towards the stairs.
"Oh? Honey?...." a woman with brown hair walked down the steps, cleaning off a silver brooch with her apron "What are you doing out of school? And what's that bandage doing on your head?"
She walked over to Serge and examined his head, then Serge said:
"Uh ... the bell at school sorta, fell on my head..."
"Oh?" said Serge's mother cocking her head around Serge "And who's this?"
"Um... I'm Kid, from school..." said Kid pointing to herself.
"Yeah, I kinda helped her out this morning..." said Serge pulling away from his mother's grip.
"Well, that's nice. You two seem to have had quite a day," said Serge's mother gently.
"Oh, Mom... I was wondering if it would be all right if I could go to Kid's house, I thought it would be best if I told you what happened first." Serge asked.
"Oh, yes, it's quite all right. I'll have to meet Kid's parents sometime..." said Serge's mother putting a finger to her chin.
"Well, it's only Mom and me," said Kid quickly.
"It's the same with me and Serge. His father, my husband, had well..." Marge paused, looking for the right word "...mental problems. He...he..." she paused again "...he's in the insane asylum just outside the city."
Kid's eyes widened, not only about what happened to Serge's father, but at how honest Serge's mother could be.
"Mom ... it's okay ... he's gonna get better ... someday..." Serge said comfortingly
Marge began to sob, Serge then turned to Kid.
"We better go."
So they left the house, and walked down the street. Neither of them said anything until they were almost to Kid's house, until Kid asked a question:
"Why was he put in an insane asylum?"
"Because..." Serge paused "...he was claiming to be Fate."
"Fate?" Kid asked.
"The preordained future..... he claimed that he could control it...." Serge said, his eyes hidden under his bangs.
Kid and Serge walked for a moment in silence. Not one word came forth from their mouths. Kid moved sideways towards Serge, and grabbed his hand with both hers. Serge stopped and looked at Kid, his mouth open slightly. Kid's face was determined, she looked at him seriously, and said:
"I know this may be a hard thing for you to discuss with other people, but if you feel troubled about this or anything else, just come talk to me."
Serge smiled, and nodded. Kid smiled, let go of his hand and continued their walk in silence for what seemed an eternity...
