A/N: its chapter number 17. It's again one of those I-can't-stop-writing days -.- 'sigh' I should really take a break...

She backed further away from him. He rose to his feet, staring with glowing eyes at the ground. He was panting, his whole body filled with pain.

She couldn't help him, no matter how much she wanted to. What was she supposed to do?

"Run…"

She turned her eyes towards him; had he spoken to her? "Chrono?" she couldn't see his eyes, his hair had fallen in front of his face and was covering the most of it. She took a step forwards "Chrono… what happens with you?" she called. She froze when he let out an agonizing roar "RUN" he screamed "RUN AS FAST AS YOU CAN ROSETTE"

She hesitated at first, but suddenly wings burst out from his back and big ivory horns appearing on his temples, blood coming from them.

She screamed and spun around, then started running down the dark street.

A smirk found its way onto the man's face, his eyes glowing brightly "But no matter how fast you run… I'm gonna get you" he whispered and took off, flaring his giant wings.

Rosette panted, she had trouble running on the hard pavement because of her high heeled shoes. She stopped for a few seconds and took them off. She threw the shoes on the street and started running again "Oh my God… this can't be real" she thought panicked. She turned a corner and ran down a small alley.

The park had to be in the near distance somewhere. There was almost no light in this alley; the only light was coming from the full moon above.

Suddenly she heard flapping of wings, echoing on the walls of the alley. It wasn't a bird. It was far bigger than that. She looked upwards and noticed a big shadow looming over the alley in the moonlight.

She gasped and increased her speed.

He wouldn't hurt her would he? He was her best friend, he couldn't hurt her.

A loud roar interrupted her thoughts; it was a roar no animal in the whole world would make. She turned another corner and saw the park in the distance. Maybe she could find a hide there? It was worth a try.

She hurried through the gates into the park. She knew it was dangerous for a girl to be alone in the park at night, but nothing in this whole park could be more dangerous than her pursuer, she was sure about that.

Her side hurt and she had to stop. She couldn't run any longer. Her bare feet were sore as well.

She panted and tried to catch her breath. She looked upwards, but the shadow had vanished "Maybe he lost track of me…" she thought and let her eyes travel around the trees surrounding her. She still wasn't able to understand what had just happened "Chrono…"

"Taking a little break?" She jerked her head up and saw Chrono standing a few metres away from her, his wings folded on his back. He was leaning casually on a tree.

"C-Chrono…" she whispered and backed away from him "W-What has happened to you?"

His smirk widened "This is my true form Rosette" he said, stepping closer "Do you like it?" he asked, obviously amused over the girls fright.

She shook her head "No… this can't be you" she whispered, her voice shaking. He took another few steps closer, making her back further away from him. He laughed "Can't it? It's true though" he said amused over the fearful look in her eyes.

She spun around and started running again. Chrono laughed "Don't worry, I'll get you girl" he said and took off once more.

He landed right in front of her, making her run straight into him. She fell backwards and landed hardly on the ground. She winced in pain, but then let her sapphire eyes lock pleadingly onto his golden.

There was nothing left of her friend in those eyes. All the warmth and friendliness was gone. The only thing left was the demon in front of her.

"Please Chrono…" she begged "Come back… you're my best friend" tears started prickling in the corner of her eyes "Please…"

Chrono laughed "Poor girl" he said "Luck really isn't on your side is it?"

Her tears started flowing down her cheeks "Chrono…" her voice was not more than a mere whisper. She didn't know what to do.

Chrono sat down on his knee in front of her, taking her chin between his fingers "What you see now is the true Chrono" he whispered "Your best friend is gone… and to be honest… you'll be gone in a few minutes too" his smirk widened even more "Don't worry, it will only be a little pinch in your neck, then it's gonna be over" he whispered and leaned closer.

Rosette closed her eyes, her tears streaming down her cheeks and over his fingers. Her whole body shivering.

The pinch never came though. She opened her left eye to peek up at him. She gasped when she saw his face was full of pain. He jumped away from her and gripped his head with his clawed hands. He began to scream loudly again. He crumpled and blood began to stream out from his temples and back.

Rosette froze, only watching him with horror. What was happening to him now?

Another painful scream echoed through the park. The wings were disappearing back into his back, his horns becoming smaller and then vanish as well. His claws were turning back into normal nails and his fangs were shrivelling back into normal teeth too.

He fell sideways onto the ground, his eyes closed. The grass underneath him turning from dark green to crimson red.

He was back to normal again. The blonde ran over to him lifting his head onto her lap "Chrono? Chrono…" she called fearfully "Chrono… wake up please" she pleaded.

He groaned and opened his eyes slowly. His gaze was unfocused at first, but then he noticed her over him "R-Rosette…" he winced, then tried to slowly stand up. He leaned on her shoulder; she didn't care about the blood. When he was again on his feet, he wrapped his arms around her "I'm so sorry Rosette…" he whispered "So terribly sorry… I couldn't control myself"

She hesitated at first, but then let her arms wrap around his shaking form too. He didn't stop apologizing. He pulled away a little to look in her eyes "Are you hurt? Did I do anything to you?" he asked fearful looking her over "You're okay?"

She nodded "I am okay Chrono… don't worry" she whispered back. He buried his face in her hair "I don't know why this happens Rosette… I never know when it's going to happen… I'm just lucky that I never hurt anyone" he said "But this time it was close… too close"

"Isn't there anyone that can help you?" she asked "There must be something we can do"

"I hope there is… I am endangering everyone around me if this happens" he replied "I don't want to loose you or anyone of my friends"

Rosette tightened her grip around him "I will help you find a way, don't worry"

He pulled away to look at her. Tears had found their way into his eyes as well "Thank you Rosette" he whispered "Thank you so much" again he pulled her closer and held her like this in a long time. Rosette was thinking hardly about what they could do.

Who could they ask to help him? Who was able to help him? There was only one place she could think off. A place that could help him get rid of the demon inside of him was… the church.

A/N: That was really hard to write -.- has it become good?
