(A/n: Well, looks like no one else had reviewed yet Softly sobbing to myself because the Barney music is still playing and since no one reviewed, the music is still playing. Flexes my wings and takes off flying trying to get away from the music Why must you all be so cruel to me? Haven't I gone through enough bullshit in my life? N e ways, please review or I just might discontinue this story, though I probably wouldn't 'cause I'm not that evil, hey wait... Yeah I am. Laughs evilly Please review and stop this horrible music! Here's chap. 8. . ...)

Serge walked through a thick forest of trees and vines. How he got there, he wasn't sure. He remembered Leena
stabbing him. Then Harlequin came and forced her to cast a Cure spell on him, but it didn't work. He knew why the spell hadn't worked, though. Leena had put a coating of 'Element Barrier Liquid' on the dagger before she stabbed him. He only knew this because he had the Second Sight.

He scratched his head in a confused manner. He hadn't remembered going to this forest. He recalled Leena getting away from Harle and then kicking him in the head for about the second time that day and saying some very dark insults. Then...he heard Harlequin crying and begging Leena to stop hurting him. But why would she cry for him? Was it because of her love for Serge or was she just using him, like all the other people tried to do? Just because he was the Chrono Trigger. He did not ask to be it, so why should he get punished for it?

At one time, someone had attempted to kidnap him and then sell him off of the Black Market. But luckily, he got away. It just shows how evil and selfish that some people can be. Selling a person off the Black Market, now isn't that a little bit over extreme?

Now, Serge had to figure out why he was here, how to get out and how to help Harlequin. Because he had a strong
feeling in his gut that Leena was going to take advantage of her crying and either try to kill her or just flat out kill her with whatever was around.

He continued walking for what seemed like hours when he heard a faint voice yelling something. He continued to walk through the forest until he came upon a faint, bright light ahead of him. He began to hear the voice a little clearer now.

Serge! Serge, please, onegai! Please wake up! Don't die! Wake up! You can't die! You just can't! Konchikusho! GET UP!

He could tell by the emotion strung into the voice that the person was upset and crying. The voice sounded a lot like a female's voice. So...could it be Harle? Did she love him that much? So much that she would cry over him and try to kill herself if he didn't love her? As if to answer this question, the voice spoke again.

Serge, I love you far too much for you to die! If you die, then I will have to die too! I can't live without you! Please wake up!

Serge felt wetness, like tears, from above, falling onto his cheek. He had heard what Harlequin had said and he wasn't about to let her die because that would mean that he would have failed in helping her.

He began to run towards the light as fast as his legs could carry him. When he started to get closer, he slowed down
just a bit. When he did reach it, he jumped into the light without even thinking. The only thing that he WAS thinking about was making sure that she stayed alive.
