Another World

It was early in the morning. In the beautiful beach known as Opassa, a cloaked man stood. He seemed to be waiting for someone, even if his face was covered almost completely, only his emerald eyes were visible. His cold gaze was trapped in the far horizon of the ocean, still waiting, quietly, without any single move except for his breath.

After some minutes, his waiting ended.

Just as quietly as he, another cloaked man approached him slowly, as if he were afraid of disturbing the moment of peace that the ocean radiated. His deep sapphire eyes were too trapped at the ocean before him. The two stood motionless at the scene before them.

Until the emerald eyed one spoke.

"Are there some news?" he said without turning to see the other man. "It was just like he predicted, The El Nido-Porre treat is going to be sealed by the wedding of Sir Norris and Lady Riddel. But we cannot permit Porre to take up to its advantage." the sapphire eyed one answered in a quite voice.

"There would be another war if that happened, and Porre would take control of all El Nido Archipielago. We must not permit that," the first one said.

"But knowing Commander Norris he would not permit that, but General Hole has other intensions." The other one said.

"We must find him, if he do that he we'll be executed, we can't allow our plans to be ruined." This time the emerald eyed one turned to the sapphire eyed one. They saw each other directly to their eyes.

"Today at night." Then the emerald eyed one turned to leave.

The sapphire-eyed one saw him leave. "I must take care of the transport." then he too leaved.

But none of them saw a blonde girl seeing them. "Their plans? Are they…?" Schala said.

Enemy or Friend.

Home World

The blue haired young man known as Serge was surprised, amazed, and even confused. A sword was talking to him! He didn't know how it happened, but he felt as if the sword talked to his mind. He somehow knew that sensation, yet he didn't. He couldn't remember exactly how he knew that sensation.

He too felt as if he saw that sword before. It was his first time there, and yet he somehow knew that sword. Maybe he saw it in a book.

Don't be afraid to speak to me, for I must tell you a lot.

Again, that melancholic sensation came to him.

Some young adventures traveled between dimensions to maintain the valance of the forces between the Goddesses FATE and the Six Dragon gods. It all began with the Chrono Trigger, the actual Chrono host. He was transported to an unknown a parallel dimension to his world. But he wasn't alive in there.

He wasn't? Why did this story was so familiar to him?

He met other people who helped him in his search for his own self. But the incarnation of FATE, have other plans to him. He changed his cat-like body for the body of the Chrono Trigger, so he could enter the chamber where FATE rested. The Dragon gods couldn't permit the Chrono Trigger to enter the Chronopolis in his actual being. So the Chrono Trigger had to defeat them so the shaman would give him the Dragon Tear.

Change bodies? Shaman? It is almost like his dream.

Soon he made new allies, which helped him with that. He defeated the Dragon Gods and proved the Shaman that he was worthy enough to get the Dragon Tear. He recuperated his body, and went to the city of Chronopolis.

It is so familiar…

There he defeated the incarnation of FATE, but it was just a trick of the Dragon Gods. Terra Tower stood up as well as the Devourer of Time. The young warrior after saving his friend from her past got into the tower and there he found the Frozen Flame. He, with his friends, defeated the Devourer of Time but they discovered that it wasn't the real Devourer.

This was now scaring him…

The Prophet of Time, Beltasar, gave them the Time egg so as to open the portal of Darkness were no time exists. There they fought against the true devourer. And with the power of the Chrono Cross they rescued princess Schala. But in the end she separated all the people who make a strong friendship, she created another hole in the balance, even is she didn't knew that.

Now it is exactly as his dream, but how did it was like his dream?

But young Serge, I just told you yer own past.

"What?" he thought frenetically. His disbelieving and confused look could tell anyone what he was thinking.

"Believe it… for I was a true witness of it," a deep serious voice talked behind him. Serge yelped and turned around quickly.

A young man, with blondish hair and beautiful blue eyes, stood before him. He was wearing a black armor with a long blackish cape. He seemed older that Serge, and he too seemed like a powerful warrior, he probably could beat him in just a few moments.

Serge was surprised of what he said. He wondered if he was saying the truth but something inside of him told him that this man was trustworthy. But yet he didn't say anything, he just kept staring at the stranger.

"Yes it has been a month since that," he said with a deep and wise voice. "You, the young adventurers that not only saved the world, saved me too," he said with a thankful but melancholic voice. "You saved me from losing my past, my memories, my love for that young woman who is not by my side anymore." he looked down as those hurting words came from his mouth.

Serge didn't know why, but he felt guilty somehow for that.

"But even if that happened, I'm happy because now I know that she's safe." He said looking to the water that was at the side of the sword.

"But that's not the case," he said now turning to Serge. "I came here to tell you the truth behind that mask of lie that you've been living these past month."

"Your quest is not over, for all of you must find each other again." Those words were confusing, but they hit the back of his mind.

"Serge, your true mission here was not to deliver that… um… sludge you got there… it is to find your true form as the Chrono Trigger!" The young man told Serge.

"Serge my name's Dario."

So he was the one he'd been searching for giving him that sludge in the case. But why was he talking about. "I was sent by Radius to follow you, as I said he wanted me to tell you the truth."

Serge was still a lot confused.

"Serge, look at yourself." He told him by pointing to the water. Serge didn't know why, but he hesitated, he somehow felt as if he was afraid of looking. Why?

The first step, he remembered his childhood, he lived a happy life with his Father and Mother.

The second step, he remembered those scary looking eyes of the demon panther.

The third step, he remembered when he was almost drawn.

The fourth step, he saw himself at the beach looking forwards to the giant wave that was going to hit him.

The fifth step, he saw all the people, who he know but yet he didn't.

The sixth step, he saw the battles he fought but yet that he didn't.

The seventh step, he saw the sorrow and happiness of the people surrounding him.

The eighth step, he saw the dragon gods with their wise, yet untrusting look.

The ninth step, he saw them combining and forming the Devourer of Time.

The last step, he saw when he was separated from the people he met.

There he was, with some strange and unknown feelings new for him. He looked down to the water.

Only to see a young blue haired man that knew more than he thought, his eyes were reflecting a confused look, but inside he could see that he wasn't confused at all, he saw that he had experienced this, a new life.

He saw the kindness behind his eyes, he saw the passion of returning back, he saw the happiness of him by getting back to the living ones, because when he forgot all what happened, a part of him died in fact.

Now with a big smile in his lips, his now cleared look was hooked to the wise warrior Dario who was smiling too.

"After all you found yourself, Serge… But this is not the ending," he said with a serious look. "The friendship you forged with your companions in that adventure, was strongest than you might know."

Serge was surprised. "That friendship gave you the victories of your battles, but when you all were separated, you did a hole in the space, making a disturbance in the valance that was once forged between time," he said.

"That friendship was strong enough to hold the disturbance once made when you destroyed the Dragon Gods and FATE."

Serge got a confused look in his face once more. "I mean if that balance isn't restored it will kill the ones that intervened in the faith." Dario explained.

"What I'm trying to say is that… Serge you must find a way to get back the memories of your friends! If not, you all will die!" Serge was completely white.

They, his friends and he, were going to die?!

"But do not panic." He said, Serge gave him a how can I not panic? look. "You can save yourselves if you all meet once more, but you must find a way to travel between dimensions for that." He informed him.

"Don't worry my friend, you are capable of doing all kind of things," he said to him so as to encourage him. This simple gesture made Serge to get a determined desire to see once more his old friends.

"Well, now that you know let's head to the Manor, I'm sure you're tired for the trip." He said.

Serge was gleeful to hear that, he was so tired and hungry that he was even thinking about eating the delicious, and well-looking Acacia sup.

"Yeah in my worst nightmares…" he thought.

"Lest go then!" Dario finally said. Serge looked back at the sword giving it a thankful glare, then he walked up first.

Dario took his moment at looking at the magnificent sword. "I hope that you'll help my little brother." He whispered.

"I hope too that you find your way to peace, and… thanks." Dario bowed and soon followed Serge.

A soft glow could be seen in the sword, as it heard the words of the blonde warrior.

Another World

The Radical Dreamer known as Kid was still in Termina, she had just encountered the young Deva known as Glenn and she too had just finished her watermelon.

"Ok… First thin' first," the extravagant and carefree Kid was thinking about the whole situation. She didn't knew why does her friends didn't remember her. But she suspected that Schala has to do with it.

"Glenn doesn't remember a thin'… so the others must've the same," she thought seeing around just to let pass the time while she was thinking. "That wench made somethin' to 'em! And I just don't know what!!" she replied.

She was complaining about it, the people that surrounded her let her pass because they recognized her as the hungry and scary lady nuts. So she, even if she weren't paying attention, wouldn't be able to bump into someone.

She was confused, of course, and she didn't know what to do. "How the bloody hell I'm goin' to find somethin' useful?" she said while looking around.

"Oi… if that wench Schala were here… I'll be able to kick her sorry arse so hard she'll kiss the moons!!" she said clenching her teeth.

Until something, took her curious side. It was an advice of the Viper Manor army.

"Huh?" she approached to see it better.

It says: For all the people that want to join us in the defense of our country of El Nido. Come by at Viper Manor to show us your skill. You'd be able to win 2000g per fight. Come by and register yourself in the tournament for the championship. There if you won all the matches you'll become the captain of the 3° squad, and you'll won 10000g per hour. Come by and show that you're really a man!! Let us know you're a really Acacia Dragoon!

Kid finished reading it. Her face was illuminated. If she enter the tournament she'll won at least 2000g per fight but if she won the tournament she'll won 10000g per hour She must do it, she must won the tournament!

"And I ain't sure if I'll find somethin' useful there but lets give a try!" she smirked, thinking, of course, about the money.

So she began her way towards the Manor.

Some later she found herself at the entrance of the Manor. She and another 200 people that desire to enter the tournament. Some minutes later of waiting in a very long line, she was about to register.

"Name?" two knights sat on a table writing some stuff while asking the participants their names and such.

"Kid" she said with her feminine voice, making the two knights look up at her. "Um… sorry missy but this is a tournament of fighting, it's not a beauty contest, and that means huge men fight for the post!" the one at the left said making an emphasis at the word men, the other one let out a chuckle and the people surrounding her laughed, while Kid glared at them.

"Hey Mr. I'm a jackass knight who doesn't know how to fight what did ya say?" she frowned sending daggers through her glare. "Are ya sayin' that a lady like me self ain't strong enough to kick those weaklings' asses?" she said with a mocking tone.

All except her turned to see each other's eyes. They all held an amusing expression, then they began laughing even they laughed so hard that some of them rolled over the ground trying to get their breaths back as other people wiped their tears apart. Kid frowned, and muttered curses under her breath.

The two knights were holding their stomachs. "Hah! Hey Missy! Are you trying to say that we Acacia Dragons don't know how to fight?!" the one at the right said. "Yes" she said simple.

The two men laughed harder. "Hahaha… then why don't you ask the monsters we've fought, if we know how to fight?! Oh wait! I forgot!!! They're dead!! Hahahah!!!" the left one spoke still laughing.

"Hey missy why don't you live us, men, with our business and do those thing woman do! Like cooking!" a huge man said. Kid with a swift movement kicked him hard in his manhood. "Why don't ya leave weaklin', I'm bloody too strong enough to kick all yer asses!" she said, while the man was at the floor trying to get back his original skin color.

"Fine then I'm leavin' but mark my words! I'll kick yer sorry asses so hard that ya'll kiss the moons!!" she said with a smirk. "You're just some pathetic assholes, cryin' of fear at a girl's face!" she said while looking to the men that were holding their manhood's as if they were feeling the powerful kick. Kid leaved and all the people opened a trail between the masses of people.

The two knights were astonished at the scene before them.

Kid returned to Termina, she thought that she would disguise herself as a man that way she'll be able to enter the Manor with ease, but there was still one problem. "How the bloody hell I'm goin' to fin' some guys clothes!!" Kid yelled infuriated.

She was walking through the entire place over, trying to deal with her clothes problems. But she stopped her track as she found a black cloak in the floor. She somehow felt all nostalgic seeing it, she felt as if she had seen them before. She shook those thoughts away and got the cloak.

"Oi, at least I only need to fin' some pants." She said. Then she smirked as she saw a young brown haired man pass by near her, he was just the same tall as her. "Luck's at me side today!" she said, while hiding behind a barrel.

The young man didn't notice her, he was happily walking half jumping through the place, and he seemed like a dumb to Kid.

"Okay, here we go!" Kid silently whispered to her. Quickly with a cat's agility she approached the young brown haired man. She took her dagger away from its sheath, and she putted the dagger towards the man's trout, while holding him hard with her left hand, totally paralyzing him.

"Oi, mate seems that we have some useful thin' to me," she said smirking, the man looked pale. "Um… um… m-miss please! I'll g-give you a-anything you want!!" he said scared to hell, Kid let out a chuckle.

"Hah! Seems the chicken ain't a chicken but a dog!" she laughed. The man sweated hard. "P-please miss!! Let me free!!" he pleaded for dear life.

Kid thought that it was sufficient torture to him; after all she needed to go quickly. "Okay, then I'll let ya free on one condition!" she said.

"A-anything!" the man said, and Kid smirked. "Gimme yer pants mate!" she said, the man looked paler now.

"W-what?!" he said totally surprised. "What ya hear, gimme the bloody pants!" she said raising a bit her voice.

The man shuddered hard, and quickly nodded. Kid let out her grip, still looking at the man. "Don't dare to escape, I'm faster and stronger than ya!" she said to him, he nodded once more. He then began taking off his pants; then when he finished he tossed them to Kid.

"Good grief!" she said taking the pants and running with them. The man stood motionless and confused. Until he heard a woman's cry, he turned to where the cry belonged to but he received a powerful slap. "Pervert!" the young woman said.

Kid was laughing hard, because she saw that entire scene. "What an easy target that was!" she said snickering.

Then at the bridge that lead to the Manor, she putted on the other clothes above her owns. Covering part of her face.

When she finished she looked at herself in the water, and seemed surprised to not see the beautiful and energized girl she was, instead she saw a blonde man with cerulean eyes, and with a not very good like about clothes.

"Better than anythin' I can think up now!" she said a little disappointed at her clothing. "Well let's go! Hope register still on!" she said running to the Manor at incredibly high speed.

Then there she saw the two knights that were appearing to be leaving. "Wait!" she called, faking a deep voice and trying all her best to take off her Australian accent.

The two men turned to her. "Sir have you come to participate?" the first one spoke. "Yah." She responded with her fake voice and smirking behind her cloak.

"Then I must've to ask you some questions." He said while taking out a paper. "Name?" he asked, Kid then yelped, she hasn't think up a name yet!

"Your name sir," the knight repeated. "Um... it's…" Kid made a quick glance around and saw a worm in the floor.

"Worm!" she said without thinking.

The two knights looked at each other. "Quite an unusual name…" the one at right muttered. The left one only stared at him then continued with the questions.

"Where did you came from?" he asked, Kid thought up quickly. "Guldove." She said while remembering Steena. That shaman was cool Kid always liked her. "Age?" the man asked. "16." She responded the two men looked once more to each other.

"Young huh?"

"Yeah…"

Kid just kept waiting there. She was bored to hell. " Weapon?" he asked.

"A dagger." She stated simply. The two stared in disbelieve. "Are you serious?!" the one at the right said. "Yeh!" she responded losing her patience.

"Um… well that's all… here's your number." The same one handed her a small paper.

"208!" she though, this is going to be a long day.

She thanked the knights. "You must ask those guards over there to get your locker for a while, if you pass to the preliminary you'll get a comfortable room." He said snickering while pointing the guards.

She glanced over the guards. "Except for the emphasis in comfortable, I think there'll be fun," she thought.

She walked towards one guard. "Hey where's me locker?" she asked. The guard looked at her. "Number?" he asked.

"208." She answered. "Take this passage," he pointed to a door behind him. "Turn left, then right and the fourth locker to your left is your one." He said.

Kid nodded. Then she entered the passage; there were too many lockers as people in there. She walked up quickly between the people in the long hall she made it to the middle. There she saw two passages, and she saw too that the main one still continued but remembering her instructions she took the passage at her left. There she saw another hall of lockers and people, but it was shorter than the first one, she made her way to the end, it leads to two passages too. She took the right one while looking at her left; she saw the fourth locker with an inscription of the number 208.

"This is it," she looked at it. "Wonder how that man remembered it," she said to herself. She wondered why the Acacia Dragoons wanted so badly a captain to the 3° squad. It was as if they were in a war or something. Or maybe they just wanted to be prepared.

But someone's shouting interrupted her thoughts. "Hey! It's time for the competition to begin! You must present yourselves at the Devas and the General, quickly make a line as the list number." a knight said.

Badly or lucky, she didn't know, she was the last. The line was a tremendous chaos because the people didn't fit in the principal hall, so the guards decided to get the people as the order of the lockers, so there where now 7 lines. Each one of them where fitting perfectly in the passages by the number of lockers.

Suddenly a lot of noise was held outside, and the line began to walk. It took Kid a few minutes to get outside by the end of the main hall. When she was outside she got really surprised at what she saw. A coliseum, just like the ones the roman people used to use as a circus.

"Funny, didn't know there was one here," she thought. While remembering the few occasions she entered the Manor in the past.

The coliseum was fitted by a lot of people. The hot sun was shining at the very top of it; she sensed the climate as if she was at a dessert.

There in the center of the stone steps, Viper sat along with the Devas, as if he were an emperor of ancient cultures, ready to watch the gladiators. Just that in this case they weren't gladiators, because one of the rules is to not murder your opponents in battle.

All the fighters held all types of weapons, some of them were huge weapons while others like hers where just plain and simple weapons. The warriors where fitting the coliseum's arenas, waiting for the competition to began.

General Viper stood up from his seat, as well as the Devas. The entire crowd watched silently for him to speak.

"Greetings warriors! As you know this is a tournament for the post of the captain of the 3° squad, and for money too! You all will be fighting against each one of other powerful warriors! But your opponents will be completely chosen by luck! So prepare your weapons because you will need them! You cannot use Elements!! The only way to win is by making your opponent to declare defeated or by knocking him out of consciousness… But if you kill your opponent, you'll not only be disqualified but thrown into prison if we, the judge, see that it was purposely… So now that you know this important matters, prepare yourselves for the championship!!!" he finished while the crowd erupted into cheers.

The Devas and him got their sits once more.

"This is goin' to be interestin'!" Kid thought, she was pretty sure that there were no powerful people in the tournament.

An hour passed since that, she was bored not see any good looking fight, she saw the Devas too much like her. All of them sat in the far part of the coliseum, with bored expressions in their faces, but they hid them perfectly well, she could see their expressions because she was a Radical Dreamer after all.

She returned inside the hall, she'd be waiting until her turn. She sat there with her legs crossed and her arms folded.

She luckily didn't have to wait too long because her battle was the 17° one and it was the 16° battle right now. After waiting a little bit more she heard a guard called her. "Hey Mr. Worm it's your turn! Get prepared!" he called her.

Kid growled as she remembered her fake name, she thought that it was the most stupid name she ever made in all her life. "Oi… at least its not like Folipondio…" she thought. She remembered too well her friend Folipondio; he was after all a Radical Dreamer too. But Kid always made fun of him because of his name. But then again, Worm wasn't a good name for a human.

"Mr. Worm!" the guard called her once more. "Comin'!" she called back. She stood up and cleaned her back; she fixed her cloak and held tightly her dagger. A smirk on her face was hided behind her cloak.

Her blue cerulean eyes were reflecting confidence. She walked to the middle of the coliseum's arena. The crowd clapped and yelled in enthusiasm as a signal of greeting.

She looked around with her arms extended waving to the crowd.

But she stopped doing so when a furious yell was heard from behind her. A huge man was standing at the entrance of the hall; he was wearing a huge axe. He was a very huge mass of muscle. But he didn't scare her.

The man walked to the middle. The crowd saw in amazement and fear filled their hearts. It could be heard as the crowd murmured things like:

"He's going to crash him over."

"Poor man, he's too young."

"Maybe someone should call a doctor."

"Aw I don't wanna be in the boy's shoes."

"Me too."

But Kid ignored then. The huge mass of muscle didn't amaze her. The Devas and the General watched in interest.

The man laughed once he saw his opponent. "HA! You must be kidding if you want me to fight this skinny little boy!" he said.

"What? Afraid of me big jerk?" Kid said mockingly. The man laughed. "Me afraid of you?! Ha! Boy, you must be kidding!!! HAHA! The little boy got some guts!" he laughed.

Kid ignored him, still smirking. "Am gonna kick yer sorry arse so hard you'll kiss the moons!" she snapped.

The man looked at her. "Big words for a small mouth," he replied. Then without further advice he swung his heave axe at her. Kid evaded it with ease.

"Not bad for a big jerk!" she said while getting her dagger out. The man looked at the rainbow looking dagger.

"Ha! What a pretty dagger you have there it fits perfectly to you missy!" he said mockingly, obviously trying to offend Kid, but she instead gave a mischievous smile knowing that he was completely right.

"This pretty dagger of mine is goin' to kick yer sorry arse!" she called back. "Then lets see what that dagger of yours can do!" he said smiling confidently.

Kid quickly took a battle position, and waited for her opponent to attack. The man saw this as an opportunity to strike he swung horizontally this time. Kid took this as an opportunity to jump above his axe, landing on it. When the man saw what has happened, and turned to face Kid. Kid jumped and kicked him hard on the face making him to fell. Kid then jumped once more and landed hard on his stomach getting his breath knocked out. Kid got at his side, and waited for him to get on his feet.

"Ough… you… aren't any ordinary boy… huff… I must watch my step form now on…" he said with difficulty. Kid smirked and prepared her dagger. She run to him once he got up, and stabbed his arm, this made the man to let out a cry of pain and to release his axe. Kid punched him twice in the stomach and then jumped to punch him hard on his chin. The man fell back, but he tried to kick her side. Kid saw him and got down.

The man turned around tried once more, but Kid held his leg firmly, then she jumped making the man to hit the floor with his head. Kid released him; the rest of his body hit the floor. Kid was still on the air and fell directly to the man's back; she hit him with her knee. The man cried out with pain. Then the man turned around and held his axe, that was in the floor at his side, and tried to hit Kid, but she jumped out of the way making the axe to get stuck in the floor. The man seeing it was useless, tried to punch the girl. Kid evaded each attack, and got in front of him while holding her dagger in front of his neck.

"Seems that I won." Kid said with a smile. The man could believe it, he was beaten by a skinny little man! But yet he was amazed at his skills.

He saw her eyes, so confident. He sighed. "Fine… I'm beaten!" he yelled so anyone could hear. He wasn't after all a person leaded by pride; he accepted his defeat against such powerful warrior. He felt almost happy to have met him.

The crowd erupted with joy. They were watching with awe at Kid.

Kid waved to the crowd, then bowed the Devas and the General with a hint of pride and somewhat in a teasingly manner. And then she returned to the hall, the crowd clapping with all their might at her. The man too clapped, and soon followed her.

The Devas looked at each other. "THAT GUY IS A TRUE WARRIOR." a pretty muscled man wearing a helmet said. His torso was naked it had a lot of scars. His name was Zoah.

"Yeah, he's like the best we've seen." a beautiful little blonde girl with blue eyes said. She was wearing a pink dress, with a gray armor. Her name was Marcy.

"I was sure that mass of muscle wasn't fast!" the blue haired man known as Karsh said.

"Um… pretty interesting…" a blonde young man said, his name Glenn.

"I think no one is better than him to win the tournament." General Viper said. The Devas nodded.

The General smiled with great interest. "Lets see what he can do!" he thought.

Back with Kid, she was back in her locker, and opened it to put her shoes in there. She wanted to get the sand off them. When was still in the arena she had seen the Devas' faces before she leaved. She was sure she had caught the Devas attention. She wondered if it would be helpful to her.

She closed her locker and sat down for a moment. She wasn't tired for the battle, she didn't even break a sweat with that, and it was far too easy. She was just tired of the day; she hadn't eaten anything beside the watermelon.

Her stomach grumbled. "Oi! I'm so damn hungry!!" she thought. She wouldn't be able to eat until she gets into the preliminary and that is, another two rounds, for her that means another two fights.

"This is goin' to be a long day!" she thought.

Home World

In an island called Guldove, the Humans and Demi-humans coexisted in a peaceful kind of way. There, the people didn't know the racism. The peaceful village was a too high-recognized center of merchandize. It wasn't filled with too many people, but still some of the finest exports came from there. Not to say it was too recognized because it was where people could rent the bests sailboats around, and yet it was too recognized because of its medicine endurance.

Their chief was a woman she was a powerful shaman. She was an elegant gray-haired woman with pretty honey eyes that had a hint of reddish color. She always radiated wisdom and authority.

She was at a huge tent that was much precisely at corner of the village, at the opposite side of were the residences rested.

There she kneeled before what it seemed like an altar. Her face reflected calmness, and wisdom. There she was, praying for her fallen tutor, the village's chief that was before her. Her tutor's name was Irea.

And the actual chief's name was Steena.

She was indeed the one that gave Serge the Dragon Tear, so he could get back his body. And she was too one of the few people that remembered the whole adventure. After all her magic power was enough to protect her from the wave that erased the memories of the adventure.

She stood up, her eyes finally open, but with a sad yet serious expression.

"No one remembers, it's no use," she thought without any hope. "Maybe we where meant to just unite because of the mistake once held…" she turned to a near chair. "Our friendship wasn't meant to be born…"

She then shook her head. "No that isn't true, we're all bonded with a strong force…" she thought with a small smile on her lips. "Even if we had forgotten…"

She looked at the direction of the altar, once in the past it hold the powerful relic known as the Dragon Tear, but it shattered apart when Serge recuperated his body. It did form the tear of love, and then it was combined with the tear of hate to form the ancient element Chrono Cross. But it was for a good case after all…

Her thoughts were abruptly interrupted as she sensed something quite ungrateful.

Her face went pale as she recognized those presences. "T-That can't be!!! They can't be alive!!!" she thought despaired looking around frenetically. "The Dragon Gods!!" she said.

Realizing what she was doing she stopped to analyze the situation, a big frown was formed in her face.

"This can't be happening… the Dragon Gods… they died… we destroyed them!!" she said quietly remembering how the Dragon Gods combined to form the false Devourer. Serge and the others fought against him and they defeated the Devourer.

"So how could they survive?" she wondered out loud. To her surprise someone responded her.

"That is a good question!" suddenly a Harlequin appeared in front of the Shaman. Her french tongue was completely recognizable to Steena, she remembered the Harlequin as Harle. But wasn't she disappeared?

Steena remembered well, when they had defeated FATE, Harle had stopped Kid doing who knows what and then disappeared.

But now Harle was standing in front of her. "Harle!" she said completely surprised.

"Zat iz moi!" she grinned. "What? I thought you were dead for sure!" the shaman said without a hint of respect.

"Ooh la lah gleeful greeting!" Harle snickered. "She's changed." Steena thought.

She then let her confused side to leave, and a frown appeared in front of her. "What are you doing here? I'm sure you aren't enjoying me with your presence because of nothing." she said in a matter of fact. Harle, still smiling mischievously, nodded her head.

"You are right…" Harle replied quietly. "Actually, I am here becauze time has lost itz balance."

Steena frowned. "What?!" she said perplexed.

"Ze friends'ip once forged in the past," Harle started. "Made ze balance of time to recognize it az a part of hiztory itself," she said.

"What do you mean?" Steena asked slowly.

"You, ze people who intervened in ze fait', have lost ze bond zat made zat a strong friends'ip…" Harle was still smiling mysteriously.

Steena now comprehended, because of the lack of memory the strong bond that they all made disappeared just like their memories. But wasn't that supposed to occur?

"So… that means zat wit'out zat friends'ip zat was now a part of hiztory, a disturbance was created in ze balance of the fait'." Harle explained.

"And that means?" Steena asked with a bad feeling. Harle just kept smiling.

"If zat bond iz non repaired soon…" a strange shadow covered her eyes. "Zen time would reject it, so it will deztroy ze… pieces… zat formed it." Harle smirked.

Steena was perplexed and confused. If she was right Harle meant about all of them being destroyed because of their lack of friendship. She did know their friendship was powerful, but she didn't know that it was that powerful.

But even with those words, Steena didn't lose her posture.

"How can we repair it?" she asked.

Harle half-closed her eyes her smile didn't leave her. "You must find each ot'er again," she said.

"Meet once more? It's possible?" Steena wondered in her thoughts.

Harle then looked around and saw the altar that held, once in the past, the Dragon Tear.

Steena was silent, lost in her thoughts. She remembered all the Time crash that occurred once in the past. She remembered all the people that intervened in it. She saw Harle too.

"Harle!" she thought.

If the harlequin too intervened in the Time Crash, then why did she said you?

Steena curious was going to ask her, but Harle interrupted her.

"Find mon Serge, he will zurely know w'at to do! Au revoir!"

As she said so, she disappeared leaving a worried Steena with her words trapped in her mouth.

"Serge?" she thought. "Wasn't he supposed to not remember?" she wondered.

"What is happening?" she murmured to the air.

Another World

Far from the nation of El Nido Archipielago, another powerful nation exists. Its name is Porre. Its commercial power is a lot stronger than many of the other nations in the world. Not to say that its military power is one of the most advanced in high technology, and strategy. The only nation that can equal it, is El Nido because of its magical power.

The General Hole, who is the second in command of all Porre, directs its military center. From here the Commander Norris came.

In one of the rooms in there, the mentioned before, entered it.

He closed the door and walked to a desk that was in there. He grabbed the chair that was close to it and sat down. He searched for a black-ink pen, and a piece of paper. He looked up to the clock and read 3:28 p.m. then he began writing.

"3:28 p.m." he wrote. "The Military Center of El Porre."

"Inform of the week: A fight and a Gas Problem." Norris entitled it.

"1. - A discussion of Soldier Ammo and Soldier Grant turned into a mayor fight. They threw objects of the cafeteria to each other provoking disorder of some of the other soldiers in there. Meanwhile, Soldiers Wallace, Hummel, and Hearth suffered some minor injuries in the process. Soldiers Ammo and Grant where thrown into prison for 1 day."

Norris then remembered the fight. Those two seemed two little kids fighting for a stupid reason, a chocolate cake. It all started when it was their turn in the line. Both of them wanted a chocolate cake but most of them were taken already, leaving just one. Both took the plate at the same time, so it turned into a discussion, then Grant already bored of Ammo's bluffing take the plate and threw it directly to Ammo's face, causing him to return the favor by throwing him his spaghetti sauce. The other soldiers saw this and a food's war started. But it turned more aggressive; they even threw chairs and desks to each other. The fight ended when Norris shouted his gun making all the soldiers to stop. As a punishment, Soldiers Ammo and Grant were thrown into prison where they could clean up the bathrooms in there. It was quite an horrible experience.

Norris then proceeded to write the second one.

"2. – Some brazen beans made all the Soldiers to get a gaseous problem in the middle of the training. It smelled too much, we needed to suspend the activity. The soldiers got a stomach problem after that. We needed to suspend the trainings of all squads in the period of three days."

It was because the cafeteria's chef didn't see the expiring date of those beans. He used them as the main plate, all the soldiers ate them. Norris didn't, because of their odor. Then when they were at the middle of the trainings doing sittings, all of them at the same time made a tremendous sound, and leaving behind a strong odor of beans. All the soldiers looked at each other, and laughed a lot, they ignored the odor with all their might so they continued their training until they were nearly intoxicated. All of them leaved running, but fell because of a strong pain in the stomach. They reposed for three days after that.

Lost in his thoughts, he didn't notice the knock at the door until someone called him.

"Commander Norris?! Are you there sir?!" a young voice called him.

"Come in!" Norris responded getting up. Quickly a young soldier came in and hailed Norris, Norris hailed back.

"Sir! General Hole has sent me to take you to his office, sir!" he said.

"Thanks you may return to your post." Norris said. The officer once more hailed so did Norris and replied. "Sir! Yes sir!"

Then he leaved. Norris then turned to his desk and took the piece of paper and folded it in a blue folder that had the Porre's shield in its front. Then he guarded it in a drawer.

Then he leaved. As he made his way up to the General's office all the Soldiers that saw him always hailed him and replied Sir.

Finally after 5 minutes he made it to the office.

He knocked the door. Then a few moments later a reply came. He heard a deep low voice.

"Come!" it said.

Norris entered quietly and saw a muscled man, wearing a uniform, before him. He hailed him.

"General Hole, Sir! You called me sir?!" Norris asked.

The General didn't replay anything he just sat in a huge chair. "Commander Norris! We need to talk about some trivial matters." he said much like an order than a petition.

"What do you mean sir?" Norris asked.

"As you know the nation of El Porre and the nation of El Nido are going to seal a pact of piece that states that the two nations are going to unite forces to search for the Frozen Flame. But this treat, El Nido-Porre treat is going to be sealed by a way our ancestors used to use." Hole said. Norris nodded.

"It is going to be sealed by the wedding of two representing people of both nations." The General informed him.

"But, sir, what is that going to do with me?" he asked. The General kept silent for a moment.

"You're the representing one of Porre." Hole said slowly. Norris was completely surprised.

"But… why me sir?" he asked. The General smirked.

"You're our most capacitate spy." he stated simple.

Norris got confused. "Spy?" he asked.

"The El Nido-Porre treat is nothing but a fake." Hole responded smirking. "So you don't have to worry because the wedding is going to be false." The General explained.

"But why sir?" Norris asked perplexed but without showing it.

"The Nation of Porre made all the fake about the pact, because that way we could enter easily to El Nido. That way Lord Viper would get his defenses down and we'll be able to get them by the wedding." he said.

Norris was completely taken aback, he did expected that they would finally get in piece with El Nido, but instead Porre is going to betray its sworn nation because of what?

"Sir, why are we going to attack El Nido if we can finally get piece?" he asked even if his mind said don't talk you stupid! You're making too much questions!

But the General didn't mind at all. "The Frozen Flame is the final key to the total conquer of the world, Porre would not be beaten if we have it in our power. But if we unite to El Nido they would claim half of the power." He said.

Norris couldn't believe his ears. His beloved nation is going to break all the morally it taught to its citizens just because of ambition?

"Sir! I truly sorry… but I can't do that!" he didn't hesitate to say that. The smirk that was formed in the General's lips turned into a frown.

"Commander Norris I'm sorry but I think I heard wrong." He said carefully. Norris looked directly to his cold brown eyes.

"You did not hear wrong sir! I say I will not betray the nation of El Nido!" he repeated.

Hole saw red. "Commander Norris are you trying to say that you're not going to follow your superior's orders?!" he asked in a cold voice.

"Yes sir!" Norris responded.

"Commander think before you speak, if you don't follow my orders you'll be called a traitor to the nation!" The General spoke once more.

"I'm prepared sir!" Norris said without any fear in his voice. To be called a traitor to the nation means that the person with such title would be executed. The traitor would be thrown to prison one week without water and food just with their uniforms; then if he survives, at the seventh day he would be fusilladed.

"Commander Norris…" Hole started slowly. "I'm not sure if you're a noble man or if you're just a stupid shit!" he yelled snapping the desk.

"Guards!" he called.

Suddenly two guards came into the office. Hole stood up and turned to them.

"Commander Norris is a traitor to the nation! Close him in prison without food or water for seven days!! If he does survive tell me and I'll execute him myself!!" he ordered in a cold voice. Then he turned to Norris.

"Stubborn man, it was a pleasure to meet you!" he said. The two guards were totally surprised.

"Leave now!" he said.

Norris kept staring to the General, he didn't regret his actions. The two guards handcuffed him with a sad expressions in their faces. Both of them looked directly to Norris' eyes and sent him a forgiving look.

Norris nodded to both. They all leaved the general alone.

Home World

In the peaceful village called Arni. All the people know each other from life, it was a quite and beautiful too. They did have a chief, his name Radius.

Radius once in the past served as a Acacia Dragoon, he was a skilled warrior and he did have a lot of wisdom too.

But now he was wondering towards Serge's house to see his mother. Just that afternoon he has sent Serge to Viper Manor to see Dario, but with other purposes than just delivering.

"I hope Dario has told him everything…" he said.

While he was thinking Radius quickly got to Serge's house, he didn't bother to knock he entered.

There, doing some labors, was Marge, Serge's mom.

Radius greeted her. "Good morning ma'am."

Marge suspended her labors and turned to him smiling. "Oh… mister Radius it's nice too see you," she said respectfully

Radius smiled. "Thanks it's nice to see you too… But I did not came here for nice matters." Radius said while a frown formed in his lips.

Marge looked to the floor. "It's about Serge right?" she asked quite sure.

"Yes." Radius said with a sad voice.

"When we destroyed the Dragon Gods, FATE, and the Devourer, we made a huge hole in the balance. So the only way to keep the disturbance was to seal it with a powerful relic, known as Friendship." he said, and Marge nodded.

"But the Princess Schala didn't saw that, and erased the memories of almost everyone except for a few." He said.

Marge kept quite.

"Those few people are the ones in charge to save the ones that intervened in the faith." Radius continued explaining.

"But the key to that is not the Chrono Trigger, but the child raised as a thief." He said.

"Kid!" Marge thought.

"You know your son is in great trouble isn't it?" Radius asked.

"Yes… I had this feeling of scare even when he turned back," she said referring to a months ago.

"I know my boy is still not safe, but I'm sure he will follow his heart and finally live a peaceful life!" she said with hope.

Radius nodded. "Yes I'm sure too he will do all of his might."

"But I can't help it, I'm worried… what if this time he does not return back!" Marge asked him.

"He'll do… I'm sure…" he tried to comfort her. "This is going to be a lot difficult than before isn't?" she asked.

"I'm not sure, this time they will need not just their fighting power but their emotional power, sometimes meet an old friend is painful because some of them are changed." he stated.

Marge nodded.
