MimiKitty: Hello again! I know I promised this chapter would be out sooner then the last one, but I've been trying my best to finish homework and try writing this chapter at the same time, so gomen .! Concerning everyone who says this story has no plot let me hope that I don't have to repeat this again, but ::takes a deep breathe:: THERE IS A PLOT TO THIS STORY AND IT HAS TO DO WITH THE GAME! If you fail to see it I'm sorry, and I wish I could point it out better for those who don't get it. ::shrugs shoulders:: Why do I even bother? People probably don't even read these a/n thingies all well it was worth a shot. Before you read I would just like to say thank you for all of the reviews I enjoy reading every response. I'm extremely glad that my readers get so worked up over my work ^_______^! BTW ::points finger down below:: come on you know you want to read. Go ahead knock yourselves out lol!
Disclaimer: I don't own Chrono Cross…I don't own anything except the crappy computer that's in front of me, so no one sue please!
Chapter 10: Free
Kid maneuvered herself through the crowd of people who blocked the door.
"Excuse me! Get out of my way!" she screamed as the fresh air finally greeted her. "It feels great to get out of that hell hole for a while," she said to herself, "but I'm not out of hell yet…got to get home first."
Kid walked down the steps, then made a left onto the path that led to her house. A smile crossed her features knowing that she was free to do as she pleased until Monday at least, 'No more confusing teachers, no more annoying gossip, and no more Serge…' she said. Kid then stopped as the thought of Serge made memories of the other night come back to her. She silently cursed to herself when she remembered about the party she said she would go to. "I guess I'm not free after all," she sighed, continuing the walk. "I swear that one of these days I'm going to kill myself for being the biggest idiot in the whole world! I would have been sleeping and relaxing from that traumatizing week if it weren't for that damn party," she mumbled as her house came into view.
She trudged up the steps that led to the door and inserted the key. "Well, since the party doesn't start till later, I'll just sleep now and get ready for the party later…" she said while she entered the house and made her way up the stairs.
Kid dropped her bag, and then fell on her bed, "Sleep…how I have missed you greatly…"
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
"I actually think this party is going to work out for the both of us."
"It has to…if it doesn't it will be on your head!" Glenn grumbled at the thought of the party.
"Why so uptight?" Serge asked.
"Well, my father wasn't too thrilled about the party idea, you see…he said if anything happens when he's not there then I'm a dead man."
"Oh…well don't worry. Everything is under control!"
"It better be or he'll be after your ass, not mine," he said as they separated toward their own homes.
"See ya at the party." Glenn waved to his friend.
"Later," Serge replied with a hint of fear in voice, 'Hopefully I don't have to face the wrath of Glenn's dad…he's extremely scary when he's pissed…and even when he isn't.'
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
"Kid…""Huh?" Kid asked while searching for the voice.
"It's good to see you again," the mysterious voice finally spoke in a more audible tone.
"Maybe for you! You can see me, why can't I see you too?! Why not at least answer me that much?" she asked with a hint of sadness in her voice.
"It's because you still haven't found me," the voice answered.
Kid chuckled, "And you said I was close to finally being with you…what a joke."
"Kid…you know I hate it just as much as you do…"
"Why…why won't you tell me how to find you? Hey wait a minute! Why don't you find me? You know what I look like it would be so much…"
"Because I don't remember…" he interrupted her.
She stopped, "What do you mean you don't remember? You're not making any sense."
"My real self…doesn't know who you are…"
"But…but…why don't you remember," Kid asked with more curiosity.
"…I just don't…all I know is that your quest is almost over…I'm here to support you on your journey and make sure you don't get lost along the way."
"…………"
"Another thing, trust me…I promise one day we'll be together," Kid heard as she felt the warmth of his arms around her.
"You better be there when my journey is over or else!"
"I'll be there…I've been waiting and I'll be waiting only for you."

An irritating sound began to echo in her head. The sound seemed to be part of the dream, but as her mind began to slip into consciousness the sound just began to echo louder. She sat up in her bed and rubbed the sleepiness out of her eyes.
"What the hell…?" she asked as she finally recognized the sound, "the door…holy…" she uttered. She jumped out of bed and looked at the clock, "The party…Serge…shit!"
She rushed into the bathroom and tried to brush out the strands of hair that were out of place. Kid tied her hair into a ponytail and tied the rest of her hair the way she usually kept it. After she fixed her hair, she tried smoothing out her shirt as best as possible. She looked at her self in the mirror, "Well, I can't do too much about it." She shrugged her shoulders and rushed into her room to grab a coat.
She closed the door behind her and rushed down the stairs. "Hold on! Just a sec!"
She swung the door open to find Serge sitting patiently on the steps. "Sorry I took so long."
"It's alright…you ready to go?" he asked. He didn't seem to be as intimidated around her.
"Yep!" she smiled. "Is it far?"
"Nope. It's just two blocks away from my house, and when we get there we'll have a great time; don't you worry."
'The party is fine with me, but the we part will not work out.'
^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^*^
Serge knocked on the door. "Glenn, it's me! Open up!"
Glenn opened the door with a smirk on his face. "And how are you two doing?"
"Stop acting like a goof ball and let us through!"
Glenn got out of the way and let them through. "You guys are early…no bad news, I hope."
"Nope, just came to help set up your party, unless you want me to go home or something."
"Actually, I could use the help. My dad left the place to me for tonight, so I was stuck with all of the work until now."
Serge turned toward Kid. "Hey, do you want to help or do you want to rest or something?"
"I think I'll sit this one out. I'm a bit tired," she said as she walked over to the couch and sat down. 'I came here to have fun, not to do any work…they can handle it themselves, hopefully.' She laughed to herself.
"Well, I guess that leaves us with the work," Glenn said and then sighed.
"How wonderful…" Serge answered with sarcasm, "Just great!"

Chapter 11: It's party time for the CC characters, but will this party end up in disaster? Will Kid ever find who she's looking for? Well can't answer that for you guys yet, you'll just have to wait for another chapter.
MimiKitty: Sorry for not writing as much, but I didn't want to leave you with nothing at all either. I'm going to try and have the next chapter out by this week so don't worry. Keep reviewing guys! It's better to know how you feel because if I don't know how you feel about my story I can't fix it to your liking! Thanks for reading!
