Hello everybody! Sorry for incredibly late delay, I have been so very sick. Bznboy, I hope this will make up for all the time I have taken. Honestly, I took a long time with this one, it was such an interesting topic and it took a lot of imagination.

Characters: Incandescent Lion Blonde Ezel, Player of the Holy Bow Vivanne, Blaster Blade and King Alfred. (AU: Blaster Blade acts extremely suspicious in this story.)

Minor Characters: A sergeant. (AU: Yes, a sergeant. What, you want me to call him Bob?)

Time Setting: Oh... it'll be mentioned. In fact, this whole story revolves around 'Time' itself.

Setting: It will be mentioned.

Summary: The search for the remaining Holy Beast Armours has not been fruitful the past few days, and Ezel is getting anxious. But Vivanne has found two bronze amulets that they identify as time travel devices... where do they go?

Interesting topic, eh? Please enjoy it, everybody! I have been working on it for a full 2 weeks or so, because of my cold. It won't be ridiculously long, but it's fairly lengthy.

Time Setting: 3PM, 29th October 2012.

Setting: Pavilion tent.

Incandescent Lion, Blonde Ezel sighed in frustration. The search for the rest of the 4 Holy Beast Armours, (3 in their possession, 7 altogether) wasn't going so well. These last few days, the Gold Paladins had found no Holy Beast Armours, to his disappointment. It would obviously not be easy, but they were not making any progress, were they?

He was sitting in the base camp tent, looking over a bunch of documents. The tents were set up near a suspicious cave a few days ago, and some units were sent off to a nearby village they had passed on horseback to find some more supplies and to sharpen their weapons and fix their gear. They had requested they come here, the cave was really eerie and the villagers would not go NEAR it. Ezel was curious about it anyway, so he was fine to go in there. Besides, there could be a Holy Beast Armour in there, and he certainly wasn't going to take the risk.

"Sire, sire!" He looked up as Player of the Holy Bow; Vivanne stepped into the tent, holding two bronze amulet-like objects. He leaned forward in his chair. Already Ezel's curiosity was burning.

"Yes, Vivanne?" He asked. She laid the two bronze amulets on the table, but when he examined them a bit more, he found that they were fob watches. When he opened the lid of one of them, the clock hands were both reset to 12 o'clock, and there were a few things on the other side of the lid that he didn't expect to see.

There was a small date indicator and the numbers on it were also reset to '1/1/2000'. Also, there was another indicator which read 'PM' and a message that was engraved on the other side of the lid.

"Turn the clock hands and adjust the date to travel forward or back in time. When ready, say 'TIME TRAVEL NOW' enthusiastically and then close the lid forcefully. You will travel to that point in time, and you will be exactly where you need to be.

Note: The fob watch will know if you weren't enthusiastic. So don't fail it, otherwise you'll end up sometime between Point A and Point B in the timeline."

Ezel looked back to Vivanne after reading the message. Judging by her expression, it was painfully obvious that she wasn't going to stop bugging him about the fob watches until they used them.

"Give me a few good times we should go to now and why." Ezel smiled. Vivanne took no time rattling off some times, but one struck out to him.

"34. Into the future by a year so we can ask our future selves where the Holy Beast Armours are,

35. Go back in time to warn the Royal Paladins about Void because of that legend,

36. Back into time so we could go defeat Void again in a more epic way-"

"Wait, what legend?" Ezel asked. Vivanne raised an eyebrow.

"You mean you don't know?" She received a blank face in response.

"King Alfred and Blaster Blade were warned of the future threats by two units wearing bronze fob watches. That could be us!" Vivanne smiled. It was Ezel's turn to raise an eyebrow.

"Did you make that up?"

"No sire..." Ezel's face didn't change.

"Well, maybe I did... but they were still warned! I know that!" They held each other's gaze for a few moments, until Ezel sighed.

"Alright, alright. Let's do it. Now, what date was it?" Ezel asked, taking a fob watch and placing it around his neck.

"March 20th, 2012. I don't know what time." Vivanne stated. Ezel took their fob watches and adjusted the time to 1:45PM. (AU: March 24th 2012 is the day episode 64 or 65 was uploaded. Since Blaster Blade and the rest of Cray's leaders hold a conference on that day, it wouldn't be too far a stretch to set this story a few days back.)

"1:45 is as good of a time as any. Okay, ready?" Ezel asked her. She nodded. Behind her calm demaner, she was very excited. But of course, that still meant she couldn't be silly. This was like a proper mission.

"Okay, on 3. 1, 2, 3!" Ezel counted.

"TIME TRAVEL NOW!" They both yelled, and they slammed down the lids on the fob watches. The fob watches began to glow, and everything began to go white for the two. In a burst of light, they disappeared.

And all was still in the pavilion.


Time Setting: 1:45PM, March 20th, 2012.

Setting: ?

"Nngh..." Ezel groaned. This migraine was absolutely horrible!

"W-Where are we?" Ezel sat up, clutching his head. He noticed that Vivanne had done that same. He looked around at their surroundings.

There were sitting on a marble floor in a long corridor, which was devoid of units.

Hang on... it can't be... The Royal Paladin castle?!

Did they... really just time travel?!

"I think we're in the Royal Paladin castle, sire." Vivanne told him, helping each other up. Fortunately, their migraines had lessened considerably.

"Well, we need to accomplish what we need to accomplish, and get back to our own time. This is too surreal for me to stand for a long time." Ezel looked around.

"Which way should we go about looking for Blaster Blade and King Alfred?" He asked.

"Why those two?" Vivanne asked. Ezel looked back to her.

"Who else would we warn other than the king and the commander of the Royal Paladins?" Vivanne nodded, understanding what he was getting at.

"Perhaps they'll be in the throne room?" She suggested. Ezel nodded.

"That's a good place to start as any. Let's go." Together they strode down the corridor, to the throne room.


Time Setting: 1:50PM

Setting: Throne Room

The most ridiculous coincidence was, Blaster Blade and King Alfred were both in the throne room, looking over reports from their kingdom and from the rest of the United Sanctuary. Apparently the Oracle Think Tank have sensed something evil approaching their time, and the duo were mainly looking over reports from scouts investigating secluded areas. One had found a dark force, but other scouts had also been to the same place, and they had found nothing. So, they dismissed it as nothing.

"I wonder what this 'dark force' will be, your highness. The Oracle Think Tank clan have never failed to alert us of oncoming dangers." Blaster Blade commented, still looking over the same report they had dismissed as nothing earlier. King Alfred looked over Blaster Blade's shoulder, holding some reports of his own.

"That is true, but-"

KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK

"Come in..." King Alfred called out. To his surprise, two units came into the room wearing gold armour and had some weapons in hand.

"State your name, occupation and intention." Blaster Blade stated, examining the two newcomers. The man straightened up, and cleared his throat.

"My name is... erm, Ezel and this is my friend, Vivanne. I'm a knight, and she's an archer." The man introduced himself and the lady next to him. She smiled, an air of elegance, grace and a hint of ferocity surrounded her.

"What business do you have here, Sir Ezel and Lady Vivanne?" King Alfred asked. Ezel noticed the reports that were on the table.

"We're here to warn you of future events." Vivanne said firmly. Blaster Blade raised an eyebrow.

"Why should we trust you two?" Blaster Blade questioned. He didn't trust these two. After all, he didn't know who they were.

"Well, erm, I can tell you now, that first off, we- I mean, you, King Alfred and the rest of Cray manage to fight against Void and overcome an incredible difficulty in the war." Ezel explained.

"What is the Void?" King Alfred inquired.

"The Void is the oncoming threat that the Oracle Think Tank are warning you of. It is the darkness that is going to consume Cray." Vivanne commented. She walked over to the desk, and Blaster Blade glared.

"What are you doing?" He asked. She held up the report that was dismissed earlier.

"This is the first appearance of the Void. It is an evil force, darkness and aura. This scout was not lying, nor was he hallucinating." She explained. King Alfred stopped her.

"How do you know all this, Vivanne?" King Alfred asked. Ezel stepped in.

"We... we have come from the future to warn you of this day. But this is all we can reveal to you." Ezel hoped Vivanne would go along with what Ezel was trying to say. Fortunately, she did.

"Yes, too much foresight is a bad thing. But we want you both to know that Cray will come through during the troubled time." Vivanne commented. She came back towards Ezel.

"We will remember this, Sir Ezel, Lady Vivanne." Blaster Blade said. Ezel chuckled.

"Of course. Goodbye, your majesty. Goodbye, Blaster Blade." They turned to the door, and were about to open it until Blaster Blade called out again.

"Wait! How do you know who we are? We never introduced ourselves?" He was still suspicious of these two individuals who had just waltzed into the throne room, told them this information and were about to leave. Ezel turned around.

"You'll find out soon." They both went through the doors, and closed them. Suddenly, a bright light shone through the tiny cracks in the door. Blaster Blade ran straight towards it, and opened the doors.

They were gone.


Time Setting: 3:13PM, 29th October 2012

Setting: Back in the pavilion tent.

"We're never doing that again." Ezel groaned. This migraine was the worst. Luckily, they were both back in the small pavilion tent. He helped Vivanne up, and they were both clutching their heads in pain.

"Heh, because of Blaster Blade's attitude towards us, or because of the migraines?" Vivanne joked. Ezel chuckled.

"I don't think you need an answer for that."

"True. I hope those units we sent off get some medicine for this migraine." At that point, the leader that was sent with the group of units to get supplies came in.

"Sire, Lady Vivanne, we have brought the supplies we need." He reported in a gruff voice.

"Did you get any painkiller medicine or some sort?" Vivanne asked.

"No Lady Vivanne. It was a poor village, they gave us what they could spare."

A death glare was directed at the sergeant from the ferocious blonde archer.

"You had better go find some herbs and make a painkiller medicine otherwise your pay won't be looking so good." She growled. The sergeant's eyes widened.

"Of course, Lady Vivanne! Right away!"
