Chrono Cross ~ Waves of Time
Part 4
"So Lina? Tell me about yourself. After all, we have...Schala? How much
longer do we have until we reach Fort Dragonia?"
Schala simply waved his answer to her with a bored-like expression,
"We still have about 30 minutes before we reach the place. You'll have to
be prepared to go through the volcanoes first."
With this said, Serge was excited, monsters will be fought and finally the adventure will begin. Lina on the otherhand looked anxious. She tried to shake this off and was talking to Serge some more.
"There's not much to say about myself. I was born in Termina. My parents died when I was very young, so I was raised in Lucca's orphanage. I lived
there until one tragic day when the building was burnt to the ground by demons. I still remember that fateful night, when this feline-type of man had came through the rooms. One of them he passed, was one that the girls were staying in. I was so young and frightened back then, all I could do was run away. I bet those who did actually survive that, won't even know that I had managed to escape and survived too. I've always thought about looking for those survivors from the Orphanage, and did try looking for a while, but that was all in the past, and many years passed between that. Now I am taking care of myself, with others helping, and it brings me to this day, when I met you and your friend Schala there. That's my life....so
Serge? Why don't you tell me about yours?"
Serge was thinking things through, All of his memories. Lina was in that Orphanage too? Did she know or even remember Kid? How could that be? That happened in the other world, are they in the other world now? Serge had to ask Schala about this, but didn't want to in front of Lina. They couldn't be in the other world though, for the skies and water, and the land around them looked as if it was Serge's Home world. He knew that nothing could've changed, even after fighting and defeating the Time Devourer. In conclusion, Serge just had to believe in finding Kid, no matter where they were. He had to try and force himself to not fall in love with Lina. She was very beautiful and had a great personality, and all this while, she was smiling sweetly at Serge, waiting for him to say something.
Serge didn't know what to say, he didn't really feel like talking about himself. Instead, he gave Lina back a warm smile. It was a lost and uncertainty filled smile. Lina noticed this within Serge, and felt this coming up in his thoughts.
"Serge....is everything alright? I hope that anything I said didn't upset
you..."
Serge looked up at her, he didn't want her to think anything like that. He wasn't upset at all because of her, or was he even upset at anything at all? Why was so much confusion building up within Serge? Before Serge had the chance to say anything back in response to Lina's concern, Schala had spoke out of announcement.
"We have Finally reached Mount Pyre! Strangely, it was a lot quicker than I had expected...Something must be very different in this place. It took us 10 minutes to reach this place, rather than 30 minutes. Let's be off then. Once we reach the entrance and go inside, I'll have to fastforward us in
time for 10 years ahead."
Serge simply just nodded. Even Schala noticed that something was and felt different. Why would they have to travel back 10 years into time? Serge didn't really care that much, anyway it would take to find Kid and Schala's brother.
"Noooo!!! You can not let us travel through time!"
With this loudly unspoken, it shocked and frightened Serge right out of his thoughts. This had come from Lina's mouth, and her face did not look sweet and kind anymore. More confusion and curiousity sprung into Serge's mind, and Schala just stared at Lina blankly. Serge couldn't tell if Schala was trying to look right through Lina or if she was just looking at her but not focusly looking right at her.
Why did Lina just spring out with this outburst of anger all of a sudden? What would changing the course of time affect with her? They can always go back, maybe even earlier than the current time...No one spoke anything right now, and all Serge did was stare at Lina with surprise....
