Chapter 9-The Massive Torcher and the Rescue
Rosette looks out the window watching random things fly by. Satella watches her. "Are you alright Rosette?" Rosette blinks and turns to her. "Yeah I'm Jake. Why?" Satella looks at her and looks away. "just wondering? Can you sense Chrono right now?" Rosette blinks and touches the watch. "Barely...he feels faded."
Satella nods and she keeps quiet, but then the phone rings. Rosette picks it up. "Hello this is Sister Rosette." The voice is scratchy and soft. "Ros...ette..." Rosette gasps. "Chrono! what has happened? your voice sounds horrible." Then suddenly the line cuts off. Rosette blinks. "Chrono? Chrono! Are you there!?"
Azmaria looks to her. "What happened?" Rosette hangs up. "The line cut off...Chrono sounds terrible." Satella looks to her. "Lets hope we can make it in time." Rosette nods and looks out the window. 'Hold on Chrono.'
(Aion's hideout)
Chrono looks out the window trying to figure out how to get out. Aion suddenly bursts into the room. "Dear Chrono don't tell me you're trying to get out again?" Chrono looks to him. "I don't want to be here with you! Let me go free!" Aion smirks. "Now Chrono why would I do a thing like that?"
Chrono blinks and watches him get closer. Aion caresses his neck. "How do you keep this fragile little neck of yours so soft?" Chrono trembles. "Thats none of your business..." Aion smirks and sneaks a hand up Chrono's shirt making him gasp. Chrono shakes rapidly. "No Don't."
Aion gets closer and whispers. "Did you know Rosette never cared for you Chrono? She just felt pity on you? Who knows what she could be thinking right now." Chrono gasps hearing this. "You're lying. Thats not true!" Aion smirks looking to him. "You know as well as I do that she is thinking that you are a contaminated little devil that doesn't deserve to be loved at all."
Chrono trembles under Aion's grasp. Suddenly Joshua comes in. He looks to them. "Oh sorry I didn't know you were busy Aion." Chrono looks to him. "Joshua?" Joshua looks to Chrono. "So this is Chrono? I wondered why you talked about him so much. But now I understand."
Chrono tries to pull away but Joshua punches him in the torso, making him fall over. Joshua smirks. "Dear Chrono, why struggle its better to go with the plan instead of resisting." Chrono looks to him trembling. Joshua then grabs him by the neck putting pressure on it. Chrono tries to breath but fails. "Please Joshua, don't do this..." Joshua throws him into a china cabinet. injurying his body.
Aion comes up to Chrono and he hears Rosette's voice. "Hmmm It seems we have company. I'll be back." Aion then leaves to go outside. "Ah dear Rosette how nice of you to visit." Rosette puts her gun. "What did you do with Chrono!?" Aion smirks. "If I don't answer will you shoot me?" Rosette growls. "Answer the question damn it." Satella summons one of her jewel creatures. "Right now Aion."
Aion smirks and raises his hand to have Chrono go through the window, tumble down the stairs and gets grabbed by the neck tightly. Rosette, Satella, and Azmaria gasp seeing the massive injuries on his little body. Aion smirks. "You came too little too late Rosette Christopher. Chrono is now near death." Rosette points her gun to him. "Let him go you bastard!" Chrono tries to get words but his throat hurt him terribly.
Aion tosses him to her. "Here you go. I don't want him anymore." Rosette drops her gun and pulls Chrono into her arms. "Chrono...Speak to me...say something." Chrono opens his eyes. "Ros...ette...you came..." Rosette hugs him. "Yes I did...Like I promised." Chrono sits up and hugs her properly. Suddenly a sharp jolt goes through Chrono's back. Aion smirks. Chrono looks back at him shaking. "So you have your horns."
Rosette gasps seeing blood stain Chrono's clothes. Aion smirks. "Do you honestly think I give up Chrono that easily. Not without a fight." Chrono grabs the horn tightly and tries to pull it out. Finally Chrono pulls it out and he screams. "Ai...on..." he falls over. Rosette shakes him. "Chrono! Hang in there." Satella and Azmaria run to them. Satella picks him up. "Chrono...Are you alright?" Chrono looks to her. "Satella...please kill Aion...All of you kill him." Azmaria takes his hand. "We'll try our best." Satella uses her jacket for a pillow for Chrono and Azmaria takes a blanket out to cover him up.
Aion smirks and Satella and Rosette fight him off while Azmaria sets up the barrier. Satella slashes at him making him fall over. "Now Rosette." Rosette points her gun and starts shooting Aion nonstop. Azmaria puts the last one down. "Activate barrier!" The crucifix barrier shines and surrounds the five of them (Including Chrono). Chrono lifts his head up and picks up a horn and stands up weakly, walking slowly towards Aion. Once he gets close to Aion, Chrono stabs the horn into Aion's back, pulling up, slicing Aion in two.
Aion looks to him. "Chrono! You little!" Chrono breaths tiredly. "Die and repent!" Aion turns into miasma, vanishing for good. Chrono falls over going unconscious. Rosette looks to him and runs over. "Chrono? Are you ok?" Chrono opens his eyes. "He's gone...isn't he?" Rosette smiles and nods. "Yes everything is Jake now."
Satella smiles at the two. "Such a good heart...Chrono has." Azmaria nods. "Yeah...thats what makes us three bonded with him as friends." Satella nods. "Yes." Rosette picks Chrono up. "Satella can we go to your estate or whatever its called to have Chrono heal." Satella looks to her with a smile. "Of Course."
After an hour of walking they three make to Satella's estate and Rosette lays Chrono down on the bed. "There a nice cozy bed." Chrono opens his eyes and looks to her. "Thank you for coming to my rescue Rosette...I really appreitiate it." Rosette smiles at him. "Its Jake." Azmaria smiles to them. "Hopefully you'll get better peacefully."
