A/N: I hope you like it! I have another Chrono fic, but this one came out of the top of my head. Lol! Here you go!
Friend or Foe?
Chapter 1: New friend
A dark purple haired young man sat upon the bench in a carnival. It had been a year since his second love, Rosette, had died. She had begged him not to die yet, so he went by her wish. "Rosette…" He whispered as he looked at the sky. "…why…"
Earlier that morning, Sister Kate had called him to her office. She had told him that he would have a new partner that would be arriving that afternoon. Who is my new partner, and why did I have to have a new one… The young man thought. Rosette, why? He looked up when he heard footsteps. "Who goes there?" He demanded as his grip on the soul clock tightened.
A young woman stopped in her tracks and saluted. "Sen Deloris, reporting for duty!" She replied. Her brown braided hair was blowing in the summer breeze. She was also wearing an army uniform. The uniform consisted of camouflage pants, a black tank top, and black boots. Around her neck was an old silver soul clock.
"I'm Chrono, and I'm guessing that you are my partner." His eyes glanced at her. "Where did you get that?" He asked.
Slowly the young woman approached him. "A friend gave it to me…" she replied hesitantly. "So you are Chrono, my partner." Her green eyes became serious. "Sister Kate has given us something to do."
"And what would that be?"
She sat down. "We have to tell our stories to each other…"
Chrono looked into her eyes, only to find them distant and almost blank. "Why don't you start then." Chrono stated.
"I rather not." She stood. "Excuse me, Mr. Chrono. I need to talk to the Elder."
He nodded. "I better come then."
Walking within the Elder's lab, Chrono and Sen looked around. "Why is it so quiet?" She asked softly. "It's too quiet for me."
Chrono watched as Sen reached for something in her pocket. "What are you doing?" He asked.
She smirked. "Just watch." Slowly she pulled out a spray can and began walking to a table and sat upon it. "Oh Elder, I have a gift for you!" She explained as she hid the spray can behind her back. "Come out please."
An old man with strange looking goggles. "Ooo what did you bring beauty…" His eyes widened when he saw the can.
"Give me the information and equipment I need or you won't be able to see for the next three weeks." Sen threatened.
"You…you wouldn't do…do that." The man stuttered.
Her smirk became more mischievous. "You want to bet?"
"Okay, okay." He raised his hands up in defense. Slowly he began explaining to her how the weapons work and told her the information she needed.
"I see." She smiled. "Thank you, old geezer." She laughed. "Oh, and this spray can…is filled with water."
Chrono and the Elder watched as she sprayed the stuff in the spray can in her mouth. She winced and drank it and began coughing. "What's wrong, I thought it was just water." Chrono began saying.
A smile came back to her face weakly. "It went down to fast, that's all."
Yet Chrono became curious. One thing was, is that he hadn't seen anything come out of the spray can. She's hiding something already. "Let's go talk to Father Remington next, he'll have some stuff to tell you about too."
She nodded. "Right, let's go!" Quickly she strapped the guns to her left leg and around her waist. "Come on Chrono, you're too slow." She complained as she walked back to Sister Kate's office. "Let's go, let's go, let's go!"
She's just like Rosette. He thought, Just without the attitude and she doesn't wear a dress but pants…maybe she is the opposite of Rosette…
