Authors Note:

Ok, before too much yelling starts I know that Chrono gets the watch from Shader (I think thats her name in the English version, the cat lady who invents the watch for Chrno any ways) but I wanted to add in this one because it would make the impact on Chrno so much more painful when she gives him the one right before Magdelene dies. Double wammie for Chrno on the emotional pain meter. I thougth I should clear that before I put up the next chapter, btw ppl when you review (if TT) feel free to ask me any questions you might have I will answer them all to the best of my ability. Now I have a huge case of writers block so don't kill me if the next chapter sucks beyond reason.

Sacura

P.S.: lord maquareion, yes i love Garath Nix and i don't know if Ranna and Sabriel are religious refrences but I do think that they could be. I might research that though, it might be an interesting thing to add in if I can. But other than that I just used his names for the Sleeper Bell and a character.
