CHAPTER 1: THE DREAM

The dream begins with faint cries from Lucca, Robo and then Marle. Later he experiences hideous pictures of the horide monster, Lavos. Their is no definite battleground, only empty, dark space. Spells are casted, blood flys, and defeat is nearby...

-Robo: Crono, use your Luminaire Technique!!!! Hurry before it hurts Lucca!!!

-Lavos:(Fiendeshly) I see you have a smart friend here. I bet her brain might give me an idea of her time and how to destroy it!!!

-Robo: Never!!!! (With arms flailing, he atempts his Uzzi Punch technique, but it is quickly countered by Lavos) L..uc..cc..aa....i.m...s..or..r.y...y...o.u...w..e...r..e....a....g....r.e..a.t..m.a...s...t...e..r... (With that said, all his systems shut down and he colapses)

-Lucca: Robo!!!! Lavos, you will pay for this!!!
-Crono: Lucca, I can't. Im too scared. I don't want to loose you!!!

-Lucca: Dammit you fool! Because of you Robo is dead!!

-Crono: Im, im sorry.

-Lavos:(Mochinly) What touching words. Lucca my dear, come forward.

-Lucca: What makes you think I will do that?

-Lavos: Because their is somone speacial here to see you!!! ( Out of his body, it pulls out Lucca's Dad, Taban)

-Lucca: Dad, what are you doing here?

-Taban:(Very scared, trembling to the point of crying) I was cheking our teleporting machine, when I saw a shiny thing.

-Lucca:(Feeling sick) Lavo's gate... I should've closed it!!!!

-Taban: Im sorry. It was dark and I saw you.

-Lucca: Me?

-Taban: It looked like you. You ran and I followed. The I found it (pointing at Lavos). It tolled me all about it's plan. Lucca please cooperate!!!

-Lucca: OK.

-Crono: Lucca don't!!Being about 5 feet from it, Lavos reveals Taban is just a hologram and with it's tentacles grabs Lucca. It attacks Crono with Rain fron Heaven, forcing him to witness the horror. Lavos begins to slowly torcher her, and everything blacks out. Only a faint scream is heard and is slowly gone.

 

CHAPTER 2: HELP IS ON THE WAY

Crono opens his eyes, but can't see. He hears murmurs of people. Judging from it, he thinks there are 2 peolpe in the room. He can't move his body, only his head.

-Stranger1: Hello, son, can you hear me??

-Stranger2: Strife, I don't think he's awake.

-Stranger1: Shut up Audray, I heard him sigh!!!

-Stranger2: Sorry....

From Stranger2's comment, Stranger1 is now Strife and Stranger 2 is Audray.

-Strife: Boy, are you awake?

-Crono: Y,yyes.....

-Audray: He is!!

-Strife: What's your name?

-Crono: C,cr....

-Strife: What???

-Audray:(Anoyed by his ignorance) Strife give him a chance!!!
-Crono: Crroonno.

-Strife: How ya feelin? You sure look like crap!

-Crono: Hungry.....

-Strife: Are ya useless, Audray? Go fetch the boy some freaking grub!!!

-Audray: Right away Strife.

-Crono: Who are you? What happened to me?

-Strife: Well, we found ya in the Golden Woods all beat up with some little green creeps stealing your money.

-Crono: Lucca?

-Strife: Lucca? Who's Lucca? Only found you.

-Crono: What year is it? Why can't I see? Where is Lavos?

-Strife: Wow, take it easy kid. I applied an herb that will heal ya faster, but it will temporarily take your vision away and any body movement. As for the year, it's 1998 A.D., and if Lavos is your girlfriend or something, I aint seem her, or maybe him.Audray enters the room and serves Crono some food. Since he is blind, she serves it for him. From the smell, Crono thinks it's soop.

-Strife: Whell, I'll see ya later.

-Crono: Where are you going?

-Strife: Hunt me some of those little green freaks. Beet ya they will go great with your soop.(Leaves room)

-Audray: How are you feeling?

-Crono: Ok, I guess. Who is Strife?

-Audray: Him, he's a retired pilot, with a large meanstreak. He's now the governer of Miora. Miora is a dome well all survivors of the Plasma War survived. It was a war for power. Now all the survivers live here. He is also a fighter, yup, uses his homemade spear. And I love him, although deep down he does, outside he dosen't. That's just his way of being.

-Crono: I can see!
-Audray: That's great. Now finish your dinner.Crono saw a beutiful woman with red hair, dark green eyes and large eerings. After dinner, Strife burts into the house and waved. Crono saw a middle height man in his middle 30's , carrying his spear on his back with the green little monster's, known as Imp's. His spear was quite sturdy and well made for a homemade spear.

-Strife: I see your sight has recovered, the way your looking at me and all. Hey, I came across some dead Imp's, and I found this along a small blue sphear. An Imp suprised attaked me and landed in the sphear and dissapered!! I also recovered your money.He hands Crono the Gate Key and all of Crono's stolen money.

-Crono: Thanks.

-Strife: No problemo. Hey, im guessing you know something about that freaking blue sphear.Crono explaines about the Gate, Lavos, his friends and the Gate Key.

-Strife: You mean, in one year that son o'bitch is gonna screw up my contry? Well then, as soon as your healed, I wanna have a word with that Lavos. In the mean time, well take care of ya.

-Crono: Thank you.

-Strife: OK.

Months pass, and Crono heals.  Strife and Crono train together, preparing to fetch their friends back.From the looks of it, they look dangerous!!!
