Disclaimer: I do not own Chrono Crusade, but I do own this story and the poem. . It came right out of my head! So, without further ado…Room 42! (Hey, that rhymed .)
Room 42
Flying chaos skies
Dare I close my eyes?
Hearing voices in my head
Knowing all I care for
Is finally dead
These whispering pleas
They sing to me
A maiden's voice is heard
Her beckoning call
It prays to me
Just a single word…
Imaginary…

I'm assuming most of you have heard the legend. And if you haven't, then I'll summarize it for you. It begins in the early 16th century when we believed in dragons and knights. There were kings and queens and all was at peace. But, during that time, a young boy and his sister lived. They were a joyous couple, but had a higher curiosity level than any normal beings.
One 'All Hallows Eve', the two were dared by a few friends to enter the dreaded Sinner's Mansion. This, of course, is when their curiosity had returned, and so they accepted the challenge. Neither knew what lie ahead; they only had their dignity there to push them on.
Upon entering the dreaded mansion, a whisper was heard calling to them. To most it would sound only like the wind sweeping past like it was normal, but the young girl could hear it. 'Come to me…I'll show you true freedom…happiness… Just come with me…' the voice spoke to her. This caused a sense of slight discomfort inside of the girl, but none-the-less, she obeyed its command.
During this time, she had made only one mistake. She had gone alone. Why is that a mistake you ask? It's quite simple. When staying in the mansion of 42 terrors, one must never walk alone, or alone they will fall. And fall this girl did.
The voice had its dreadful wish granted, and after the 42 hour she had stayed in the mansion, the girl had disappeared. Her brother, they assume, had gone to look for her, for he was never seen or heard from again.
Now, the mansion has been closed off for inspections. It's been said that when wandering through its corridors, the cries for salvation can still be heard. Also, when looking through the window, or staring in a mirror, never look for too long. You may discover something…that was never meant to be seen.
A/N: All right…I know this is probably one of the shortest chapters in the world, but it'll get much better! I promise you that. . This is just a story that Chrono, yes Chrono, was narrating. It's giving you a hint of things to happen in the future. But, don't go assuming that everything in this part will happen. . It might get a little twisted!
So, until next time…Ja ne minna san! (I want 5 reviews so I can update. So get your friends to read ok!?)
