"Rise and shine, Prodigies!" Verna's peppy voice awoken the group. "Let's get ready for the coronation of Father Time today!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaBaH2IIqDc
Catherine scratches her neck as she pushes the quilt off. "Coronation?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hNKs1OJEq
"Apparently, a new Father Time is to be crowned today." Nathaniel states, stretching.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD6rx0WRoyg
"Your mission today is to just watch over the new guy before the celebration begins. Pretty easy, right?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3pC55mZsdQ
"Wait...our job today is to be a goddamn babysitter?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qQ3tE3kuT
"If that's how you view it, yes. But as a reward, you get to go to the after-party!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlipzeX2yl
"That at least solves dinner..." Ezra thinks aloud.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHETFq3j2IH
"Breakfast will be served once you get there, so just put on your clothes and shoes and...look a little presentable.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxo6T4sqUFL
"No prob.." Arsenio says. "Let me just get my morning tea before I go.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoPg9vXzEdg
"T-Tea?" Isabelle asks while brushing her hair.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRVjcZ1EfmY
"There's no time to go time traveling now." Nathaniel interrupted, pulling his shoes on his feet. "We have to be there as soon as possible. Thou leaving would only cause delay."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQ1MiGiGoV
"...Alright then..." Arsenio says, slowly sitting down and sliding his hands in his coat pockets. "I'll just wait until later then.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAqHgua2c1
"Is everyone ready?" Verna asks, peeking into the room as she does so.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡudTf5gKhfT
"I think so.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPY2FUoWp9h
"Good, good!" she fully opens the doors to let the Prodigies out. "Then, let's go, shall we?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnz7g8wTRQW
The four leave the Sanctuary, following behind Verna. A crowd of other Prodigies and Timekeepers exploded into cheers and claps, not for them, but for the soon-to-be Father Time. The five come out to take a look.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGXtA58QfA
"See him?" Verna points towards a young man dressed in golden silk. "That's in z was Chrono, the so-called 'Golden Child' of the Time Realm."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAcGCmF4dt
"...Is it because he's blonde?" Catherine remarked.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwgN0zym7dO
"... That might have had a influence on the nickname, yes."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHqAvywpsV
They watched as walked stone faced across to the home of Father Time.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDk0Bhp64OZ
"Let's go." Verna says, instructing them to follow Chrono.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7TQ4Mk8sW
When they finally get to the house of Father Time, opened the door and walked in, they were amazed by the interior of it. They could feel the whimsical breeze of it's godly aura.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXHy0B44Bev
"Hello?" Catherine waited for a response.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfM6bnNIb6
"J-Just a minute!" A voice called out before crashing and falling is heard. Then, from the stairs emerged Chrono.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJ8a8IYuTO
"Verna, very nice to see you again. And these four might be?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgl1hzLzIj
"This is Nathaniel, Catherine, Isabelle and Arsenio. They're the new Prodigies that are here to keep you company while we prepare for the ceremony."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh7umLlGETV
"I see..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpZJhT4yY6
"Thanks again for doing this, guys."
Verna time warps away.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxGOF4YgUy
"...Which one of you is which? I just don't want to be confused.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgPOgDRPuc
They introduce themselves once again, giving him some clarity.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1GcEVhyzJ
"Ah, well it's nice to meet all of you."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡotlrJDO1p7
"Verna t-told us that w-we would have s-some breakfast.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3CkZo1C9R3
"Of course. You've come here quite early, so I'm sure you four are starving."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNXcCo0VrFg
"Yeah..." Catherine agreed, lightly holding her stomach.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡArHvKKhxua
"I thought so. I've prepared something, so don't worry."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjoyD750TXs
Chrono brandishes a golden door, which he promptly throws open and reveals some nice breakfast meals, already plated and ready to eat.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ83kZvR6qt9
"You m-made all of this yourself?!" Catherine exclaimed, impressed.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucU3onKNIP
"I was just planning on making food for myself, but I didn't want to be rude.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0y9zPcFtto
"It does look rather...delectable..." Nathaniel says, clearing his throat.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4tY5TQkKr1
"Well, shall we eat or watch it get cold?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFtGmSQSff2
The four Prodigies and the Son of Time all sit down and enjoy a nice breakfast, basically wolfing down the entire plate before them.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFhCbOuKmj
"Man, that was good..." Arsenio says, stretching in his seat.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu0PSuoFsSF
"I'm glad you enjoyed. It's very difficult to find people who enjoy similar interests to me."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikeqXDHx5h
"Now what? Do you just read books and whatnot?" Catherine asked, taking the last sip of her drink.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyIykHotlv
"I'm afraid so...I yearn to join you Prodigies on adventures. They sound full of excitement, far more exciting than being the future ruler of the Time Realm.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJIN65Iohh
"Then why not join us? From what we've experienced, we certainly need the help." Arsenio asks, leaned back in his chair.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFqKexPaa4Q
"I was never suited for things like that, unfortunately..." Chrono sighs. "My Gift is also a little...hard to control."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt7SlODVnDR
"...Can we see it?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlyhb521B4E
Chrono begins to rub his arms as guilt and embarrassment threw itself on his face.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj5HfCgambI
"You can say no, you know..." Catherine speaks. "No one's forcing you."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1GhJdnUDw
"It's...complicated."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgBpUmBzGRk
"That's u-understandable...I have a Gift I can't quite c-control myself..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNflHjTYy2P
Dawlly immediately pops itself out of Isabelle's pocket with an annoyed look.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvTRM1XxWjy
"I-It's true..." she looks at Dawlly with the same annoyed look.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6JHKhEdst
"Interesting.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWbCx9kUmsT
"Is there anything else you like to do other than read and fantasize?" Catherine asks.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypX75TmL1K
"I like to learn more about my Gift."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMaukqO6ACQ
Carefully, as not to fully summon his Gift, Chrono slides his sleeves back and reveals the shiny, golden exterior, speckled with gems of many, his fingernails now sharpened and curved.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wozdKbcpH
"O-oh my.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMmXMm60Y2Z
"This is as far as I'll go..the last thing I want is to turn on you.." Chrono quickly pulls his sleeves back up.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXlfdrGFs6
"So, what's your Gift? I'm sure you four have gotten one.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcTCTjyYFF8
Catherine nudges Nathaniel. "You show yours first. You're the supposed leader."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaoe1CLtIw
"I have never said that I was a leader..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhvaoTp4QI
"W-Well..." Isabelle added. "You d-do know the most out of all of us..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH1EHPJT4j5
"...Fine.." Nathaniel reluctantly agrees.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡp0xYT8I217
First, his arm, then up to his shoulder, until his entire body was covered in armor.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOfE0nEk7Q2
"You never told me you could do that.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwHHuCzLxnX
"I feel as if there is... no need to use the full Gift. It is...uncomfortable.." He speaks from within the suit.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiZTTQ8zZcP
"Well, get the hell out of it then..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePpcAeEojl
He removes himself from the armor, reverting back to his velvet clothes.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfVRYhv1H92
"Well, since thou wants to assume roles, maybe thou would like to go next, co-leader?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXokHHnq3cm
"Of course you pin this crap on me.." Catherine growled. "But sure, why not?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZrBXX6En2l
She slips through her chair, and all the way through the floor.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARitoJnZKs
It was like she was in her own dimension, her escape from reality. She swam around as she heard the others from above.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZvoYMjGAg
That's when she heard a voice calling her name from the distance.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN94WJI08jp
"Hello?" The voice creepily whispered.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKSPsoKAU3
"The hell?" She exclaimed. That freaked her out enough to pull herself out of the Phasing dimension.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPPhNG9idu9
She gasped, as if she was underwater when she crawled out.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡusqFCe4IdH
"You alright? You've been in the floor for quite a while..." Arsenio mentioned.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF1l9kP966h
"...Yeah, something just... freaked me out.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLEDstXCXIi
She slides back in her seat...
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69B6HoDF7q
"I-I'll go next..." Isabelle announces. Within seconds, the threads began pulling themselves out of her sleeves.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYATlz8s55V
"I can even control her emotions like this!"
Dawlly pulls itself against the rest of the threads. Isabelle clenches her chest, before dropping. She wakes up in a fit of rage.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH8OoBEAOfF
"I just had to wake up today! Is it wrong to get some sleep around here?!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1m49WSIheM
Dawlly smiles innocently as Isabelle continues to roar.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFrSyv04tDt
"Don't worry, I've got this.." Arsenio stands up. "Trust me, my charm is irresistible."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlgBy1pzrZ5
He grabs her wrists, looks her deep into her eyes..
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrCUAmWZZr1
"Ah, great..." Catherine grumbled, rolling her eyes.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIerj7hrbhI
"Didn't anyone ever tell you that you look adorable when you're angry?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUO07hHBqm
Isabelle, easily flustered and caught off guard, immediately snaps back to her timid self.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCAORUaq75
"See?" He points out. "It's like a secret perk I have." He starts throwing up two pieces of jewelry.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzxi01il8aO
Isabelle immediately feels her ears.
"M-my earrings!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe39fh21hRn
Arsenio chuckles and gives them back to Isabelle. "Don't worry Belle, I might be a thief, but I couldn't steal from a sweet girl like you."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIiikLj4xWc
Isabelle just kept turning red as she puts back on her earrings.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQtZmJDPPTz
"So, you yourself do not have a Gift just yet, Arsenio?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcmo7xwQ7Vw
"I haven't really felt anything, so no...I think."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ46IwNoT8cb
Outside, bells begin to ring. Chrono looks up at the clock sitting across the room from him on the wall.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjWVOWfI5e
"Ah...only an hour left..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgh7bBOeIRS
"Is there anything else thou wants to say to us before thou becomes Father Time?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQrMTEiCds4
"Use your Gift well, and I hope we get to see each other more in the future."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoByF0K2KfI
Chrono smiles genuinely.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKOJtFV2A3
"So, what now?" Arsenio says, picking his teeth.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGSFhK1SYqn
"Well, if you four are attending the ceremony, you'll have to be properly dressed."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJkETqF8DcE
"Well, Verna could've told us that earlier.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ56MhzWBFCY
"Don't worry, we have a public closet full of gowns and suits for you to wear."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6T10WXJkh
Chrono stands up, leads them upstairs and pulls open a closet door.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSp0f3QYCvQ
There were attire in every color of the rainbow.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRRbawrimr9
"Hey, now this is nice!" Catherine says, walking into the spacious closet.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUtnarLvK0y
"Don't be afraid to pick whatever you want!" Chrono says, leaving.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEOhfpLigfd
Trying to decide what attire to wear, the Prodigies pick the most extravagant and dazzling outfit that fit them the most.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIWwiwpyJH7
The four take turns putting on their new clothes, which gleamed and twinkled in the light. Once the four return to the closet.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcV7rZLf5aI
"Looking nice girls.." Arsenio says.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVGGxit0un
"These shoes are gonna kill me later, but yeah, thanks.."
Catherine complained.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLvV0oWD7wf
"Now that that portion has been completed.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2A972LK2Qp
Nathaniel grabs Arsenio by the shoulder.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡje2vzQg6LG
"Arsenio. Thou shall come with me."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfmpOMYjxJd
He drags him away.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj10zjkD0qp
"Hey uh, Nathaniel, what are you trying to do?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhr0ky4QJ3b
"We must fix this hair of thine.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6ELouy4bN
"Wait...Nate no, my hair is fine-"
Nathaniel pulls Arsenio outside.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlfey8Qg3ro
"Well, it w-wouldn't be too wrong to d-do the same, would it?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7KPKT5Gn4k
"No, we can take turns doing each other's hair. That seems hella fun!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSdqWlOxdTW
"O-okay!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGwwdHhM2pq
Isabelle finds some combs, brushes, and hair accessories.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFZqI3PoltI
"N-now, what kind of hairstyle would you want?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjV5Qqh6T8w
"Something simple, I guess. Not trying to impress anyone.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbjlpmOi10K
Isabelle gets to unbraiding Catherine's hair, carefully and gracefully taking it apart. In the middle of brushing however, Isabelle stops.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojcD0MyJMl
"Uhm...Catherine?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡACMTsddtNc
"Yeah?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8dWg7tqkOQ
"There's a m-mark or something...on your neck.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcJU2QfUGl
"Huh? What does it look like?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxrmzY9cyG7
"It l-looks like something scratched you... you didn't g-get attacked b-by anything, did you?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK2jpNmFgz
Catherine scratches her neck once again.
"I dunno, I thought I just had an allergic reaction to something yesterday, that's when it started itching like crazy.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mQ6r8BHoN
"D-Do you have any allergies?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qNSuxw7xL
"I'm not supposed to."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEnUqz0v87
"...Oh my.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB5JaCvIT7Z
"I'm not too worried about it... it'll clear up soon..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMMT4shok8
"...If you say so.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHvZr1JkLL
Isabelle continues to brush and straighten Catherine's hair. Before she knew it, Isabelle was already putting a flower pin neatly upon her head.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWT7xYGQGTt
Isabelle puts a mirror in front of her face. "T-Tada!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡePiWidSpn8
"Oh damn. That's actually really good."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoySv6IdfQG
"T-thank you.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWRT6BRahD3
They switch positions, with Catherine sitting behind Isabelle to do her hair.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk9x5POnD9y
"Is there anything specific you want to get?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoo6WD729l4
"U-Uhm.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8fJYZfkZc9
"Oh wait, I actually learned how to do this one hairstyle, French roll or something like that?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP1gmUE16SM
"Okay, that one t-then.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoXE2HlP0Lh
"Alright."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVb17IZBSD
Catherine gathers all of Isabelle's hair, pulling it together, wrapping it around itself, until it looks like the hairstyle.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsC8BdjNYKZ
"Crap, I don't have any hair pins.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ08zHZIqHlZ
"D-don't worry, I have a backup.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIBMvLLNof
With her Gift, Isabelle sews the updo together until it fits securely, then places her own pin into her head.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRgusWTQjd
"...That works too.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMoNBcSi8bs
Both the boys suddenly walk back into the closet. Arsenio's hair was no longer covering his eye, but instead pulled back to where someone could see both.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOPKbtxLcWl
"I still don't get why you did this, it was fine as it is.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK5EkWmdZFc
"Trust me, thou would rather look like this."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYPbaFFMNww
"I see the boys didn't have a good time picking out hairstyles." Catherine taunted.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5MJ3Cp1QFX
"T-They do seem to be in a debate.." Isabelle added.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJXPI8F3y9
"It's gonna take forever to put my hair back now.." Arsenio protested.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8jmEkFJech
"Let's not w-worry about that... we're supposed t-to have fun.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsTuhFtGqWH
"Yeah, I guess that's true..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaiwN5oPlii
There was thirty more minutes left. Still plenty of time to waste. Chrono comes back to check on them.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq6jv8UlSd9
"Ah, looking exquisite Prodigies!" Chrono praises them. "I'm sure you'll be the best looking ones out there!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5bgROsJJU
"Eh, I doubt it, but I feel a lot prettier in this poofy thing.." Catherine flutters the ends of her dress.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiNtwEyOSn
"Ah, don't be so modest, you look great!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69HRT0fUSZ
"Well, we still have lots of time. What should we do until then?" Arsenio asks.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEWMYmis0vS
"Why wait?" Chrono asks. "I can manipulate time at will. I'll just skip time a few minutes.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq7on5aLHtb
Chrono raises his arms. Their breathing gets faster, no, everything they did became quicker than their eyes can see, then abruptly...it all stops. The bells ring once again.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR6chISzAtF
"...That was...strange."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBjojV0adE
"Let's go. The ceremony's about to start."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdKuI09Ya5
Catherine pushes Chrono out of the door. "We're right behind you, don't worry."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKXXkZckcir
Chrono sighs, stands in a more noble-like pose, and walks out with same neutral face as before. The Prodigies start walking similarly, standing on the sidelines as they got to the end of the golden aisle.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMWAIh9qzoF
The crowd begins to applaud as Verna appears behind Chrono. She clears her throat.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ERlcWqdLQ
"Welcome everyone, to Chrono's coronation. It's been a while since we've had one of these, huh?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOujUsYXgoM
The crowd erupted into light laughter.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCEfSsIlCKj
"Anyways," she continued. "let's get to the best part."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTcwtCrDMf
She turns Chrono around, hold his hands gently.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyA0Waw8DYJ
"Do you solemnly swear, as long as you live, that you will fairly rule over the Time Realm?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc8pYRx69wD
Chrono silently nods.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdw3eY8t0Xd
Verna releases his hands, opens her own, and in them, appears an extravagant crown which seemed to glow in the light.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucVANJvmwj
"Well then," she places it upon his head. "..you are now Father Time."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0yvUvGsyI
Everyone explodes into cheers. The Prodigies couldn't help but clap along.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXdgl1ThQC
"Now, let us commence. Grab a partner, for the party is about to begin!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF49SBxACZf
Groups begin to pull apart into parties of two, music begins to fade in.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzuEB2erSaw
Catherine feels fluttery from the tension.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupAHmm40lG
"...Is something the matter Catherine?" Nathaniel's voice seemed louder than the opening song softly playing in background, the duos of dancers twirling around like a top.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bxdgp8BWu
"I just...never danced before. I just sat in the back of the room drinking punch and looking at everyone else at prom." she returned, sadly chuckling. "Speaking of which...I should go do that now."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIKb1fXci2F
She trudges off to a table, which had some people conversing between each other, and some cool punch standing on a table. Catherine brainlessly takes a cup, picks up the golden ladle, and puts the drink in the cup before taking a sip, like she always does.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgV7xhCkJmk
She tries to find familiar people swimming through the crowd like fish in water. Catherine is lost in thought as she took another sip, the cool temperature of the drink removing the clawing tension from her head and shoulders.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GuDbWuvWs
"Does thou plan to do this at every party?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwdQccM491w
Catherine finds the source of the tension. She knew Nathaniel was standing behind her the entire time. Without looking back, she responds.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDIQAgZyoY
"I don't have anything else to do. Why'd you follow me anyway?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3klTVkTJrm
"I actually came here for a pastry.." he reaches behind her to grab a tart from the tray on the table, taking a bite and getting jam and whipped cream on his face.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWCyVh5pfzg
"Nate, you dumbass..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEP2oL7Twt
"Hm?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0jjIeBiIMN
"You have jam and crap all over your face.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZT14SCalSs
She pulls a napkin, and is just about to hand it to him, when a voice yells in pain, quieting the party to silence.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM31tjCVcxV
"...What's going on?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyIv0xlQ5Or
"I am not sure."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiq3sO6nkJa
"...Boost me."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2GKwYC6f9G
"What?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxjlES0hd78
Catherine struggles to climb up Nathaniel. Once she reaches his shoulders, her eyes catch something unexpected.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ398qFvuv1r
"It's...Chrono.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cP5lt9u2Y
The two push participants out of the way.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlT5OauQha0
"I was worried about his hands and..." a girl whispered towards them.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwrf4x0dBa
"Don't worry, we've got this."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVNf8Fg6TD
It seems like his Gift was finally coming into play.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmt143xCvA
"Chrono...are you alright?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ15Uj8K3rMc
Chrono grabs the edge of Catherine's dress to pull himself up.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCn5toCsFCP
"I'm fine, really! My Gift just... activated all on it's own.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG3cbqkd2fD
As he stands up, everyone could see his Gift's true form. His face was plated halfway with gold, just as his arms were.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDZQF8xSagY
"But seriously, I'm fine!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzb3KHjtQzZ
More of his face became jagged.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMUIS94eAsS
"... Let's go. Nate, you get Arsenio and Isabelle."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ63ODyF2GlJ
Catherine pulled Chrono away from the party, taking him back the House of Father Time.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZvZt99TpX
"Okay, Chrono...what happened?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ombwhlDmp
"I-I think the stress...plus the demonstration from this morning..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSgoF07PFKc
Nathaniel and the others enter the room as more of Chrono's face became encased into more gold. His clothing began to rip as thorns began poking through.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIhut7sluO4
"C-Chrono? Are you okay?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0OFcTQidGJ
"I-I am f-fine, Prodigies...this is just what happens...It's a little painful, though..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI8gGDlvW3O
More barbs rip around his body, horns even start to curve from his head.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZhWUZt6Cp
"O-Oh goodness.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ73IbbeHM0g
"I just have to...fight it. I can't hurt anyone if..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9Tb8wTUcD
His breathing gets heavier than stones.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKWa5jZy86h
"Is there anyone we can get for help?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7JRVOD3Fu
"You don't need to bring anyone. Just...leave before it.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8gjJ03sNf
Without thinking, Chrono threw a glass from a table right beside him.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdgzfiRaLHr
"Okay okay! Let's calm down.." Arsenio says, recovering from dodging.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0yGOSmzl6
"I-I can't! It's going to..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9RBxHaL7C1
The Prodigies prepare themselves, but they were still unprepared for Chrono's unpredictable speed as he dashed at Catherine and threw her out of the window behind them.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu6x69lut1C
Catherine simply used Phasing to break her fall, diving into the floor.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYJtQVLOMUL
The voice from before called again. "There she is again!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRkHRhBFe3
"...Who the hell are you? What do you want?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCkyAhtVEiC
She saw a stripe of bright cyan wave past her. Catherine tried desperately to find where the line went.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSW3sWKkyjv
"...Behind you.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1RFhskYcbY
Catherine turned around to see the menacing face of a dragon staring back at her. She was about to take a breath to scream.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJuuVdy4TxF
"Hey, don't scream. I just want to know how you got here."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18iL8g6ngd
Catherine confusingly looks.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM07d5dzWQF
"This is my Gift...I can phase through crap like it's water. I broke my fall from a building.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHVs33hyHr5
"Oh, you must be the person I marked yesterday. Makes sense, I guess.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1qsQiCocgt
"M-Marked?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIcSMpSHHsY
"That itch you could never satisfy." It points towards Catherine's neck.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVc7Hv9oOZq
"...Wait, that was you?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw71Zx3aXT
The serpent playfully clears it's throat before bellowing menacingly.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTAwtECInAk
"Allow me to become you, and I shall spare your life!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuhxr6evDJd
"...Do I get other abilities other than falling through stuff?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV5i6OsqEX4
The dragon shrugs. "I think so?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxt3Pnw3PEC
"Great. Come on then."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSN73fLDKAM
It phases through Catherine, unlocking a surge of energy and power within her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZzLqtiMnH0
Catherine climbs out of the dimension as the others were looking for her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYroNG4SOJ9
"Sorry if I scared you guys.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsBzOBQQNtk
"Catherine! Y-you're okay!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKleAivV8KB
"Yeah, I just got a new friend."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVZHHadDTe
The dragon only appeared as a ghost coiled around her body.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8zIPJYgwJ
"And her name is?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6JPLOaE9a
"Not sure.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7QgDB2Xj55
Like a ghost, the dragon swapped her soul with Catherine's.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcSt5DLO8oO
"Piravit. My name is Piravit, the Spiritual Dragon of Phasing. I have chosen Catherine here as my host..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tRnrHIxAu
"Thou is...possessing her.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzD2v0iqtSU
"Oh no, she agreed to this. It's more of a symbiotic relationship. I get to go to stay here in her body, and she gets my strength."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKIkZp9WlXy
"Cool. Now...about him.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfDCGkGjmUg
Arsenio points at the shattered window that Catherine fell out of.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEVtNM3Zxxv
Chrono's roar echoed throughout the realm as he perched on the window.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEb5V9MjiiV
"Oi! You have some explaining to do!"
Catherine says as she takes back control of her body.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1f2OOw9EjI
"...Catherine, that's the Time Beast!"
Piravit says as a echoing voice inside her head.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ701WEJST10
"Eh? That's Chrono, that's just his Gift."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW2FQ3F2RRv
"Like you, he's been marked. If he sees me with you, he'll kill us both!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2iCVOzpbW
As on cue, Chrono jumps down right in front of Catherine, as if analyzing her. Then with angry aura, throws her again.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡELAavqU1LE
Catherine hits the ground, tumbling.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc5v2PqFtG8
She struggles to pick herself up, as Chrono runs towards her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhJ8acqv1S
"What the hell did you do for him to get pissed off?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5cKU0XfVwp
The dragon goes back to it's spiritual state.
"Sooo, about 2,000 years ago...I made a bet with him...I kinda lost said bet and I hid in the Phasing Dimension until someone strong enough could become my host... hehe.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcJ8GOBsUK
"You have gotta be kidding me!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7qHobR3YLO
"But don't worry! I'm sure if we beat him, he'll come to his senses!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLoxc3j1gCG
Chrono pulls a punch towards them, only to be stopped by Isabelle's thread.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOg23oXtH2
"C-Chrono! You h-have to come t-to your senses!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTslcdjaLAH
"Get off!" He returns in a ferocious roar as he cuts the thread with his nails. Isabelle, pained, has to step back and catch her breath.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3mWawjfQG
"I-I'm sorry...I can't k-keep him still..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDn4JAXiDs
"It's alright! You've spared me some time!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFhHHd9fhe
"Let me take over!" Piravit immediately pulls Catherine out, becoming the one in control.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQqmPVkwrRs
As soon as Chrono began a barrage of punches, Piravit pulls away, but was able to only dodge a few before tanking them.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc1aHmxAfQz
"He's way too fast! I can't get a hit on him!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7ogaiH4hn
As Chrono kept punching her in the chest, Piravit, in Catherine's body, was thinking of ideas, pondering as hard as her breathing.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntapDhrZLZ
Piravit begins to punch rapidly in response, until the two stop.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEEUXFkAF1b
"I have to say..." Piravit states tauntingly. " You've given me quite the workout since I left my dimension-"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡniFWNUixKW
While it's still in the middle of it's sentence, Chrono begins to attack again, as Piravit had to take what seemed to be dozens of punches at once.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeYmGpmM9rX
"So, p-playing dirty are we?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7f78ViPfug
Chrono responds with an angry, but silent, glare.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQwv5YY3Tc
"Great, I like games without rules..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg4SkKP1TOj
Piravit phases back into the floor. When they return to the Phasing Dimension, the two separate.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzwmQChw2k
"Okay, so new plan..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFVTKYjXW2n
Catherine coughs as she feels the after effects of earlier.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN5UpNHrBhz
"You better think of something and fast..."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcYd37heECw
"There's one last thing we can do, but you have to follow a specific set of rules and-"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9lVuNdbNzQ
"Nevermind... I'll figure something out.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSutD1jcCFy
Catherine jumps from the dimension and behind Chrono, where she sneakily kicks him.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpVetREx8SV
Piravit follows shortly behind her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6AXH8Ukvu
She kneels down towards Chrono.
"Well? Are you having fun yet? Not fun being attacked without noticing, huh?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvk39t2GhqY
Chrono swipes at Catherine's arm, barely cutting her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiej2jR77xV
"...Nah. Didn't think so.." she says, standing up. "Didn't know you'd get this bad.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1oH9tJLsWC
She picks him up. "Come on. Let's finish this so you can go back to normal at least. I have things to do.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3XWajR193N
Catherine stands in a fighting position.
"I'll only use my power alone."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlbJKnCKFt
"Then allow me to join you." Arsenio says, standing beside her.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNsMgMuYv4
"What are you gonna do, flirt him to death?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD4TBdp3oi
"I actually had something else in mind.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5wCCJ8l0mF
Arsenio was finally able to conjure a Gift, as an arm cannon faded to fit on top of his hand.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Hjw3F05Ce
"I wanted to test this thing, you know?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AzwFBVfME
"...Whatever."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj89Wte7Zoz
"Come forward..." Chrono says menacingly.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSEmfSoO1Hk
"Whatever you say, your Majesty."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqR1nZmSaD
As the two-on-one began, more of the participants of the ceremony began to watch from a distance.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2XeKEXRiZ
"Seems like we've made quite an audience.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqt6kgaZjwp
"Let's make this the best coronation the Time Realm has ever seen.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdArRJlaNr7
The two Prodigies went two different directions, hoping for one of them to leave an opening for the other, but Chrono had a few more abilities to use to his disposal.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXKz7A9YyM
With a sharp yell, time itself began to slow.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDU6j9s4bo
"Damnit! We're stuck until.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡffxriMkyC6
Chrono begins his attack while they're stuck midair within the clutches of time. Catherine can feel the struggle as she tries to move and break herself free, to no avail.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyP4hdObmA
She feels the true strength of Chrono as he lands multiple attacks, the pain settling in before she could react. Chrono snaps his fingers, releasing time from it's statue. The sharp, deep pains only burned more as she fell.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7dKaAaEJ0V
"...I don't think we're gonna make it if he keeps stopping time like that.." She says, spitting up blood and standing up.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZx2CUgsbq
Arsenio reveals the power of his own Gift, as a fiery beam escaped from his hands as a brilliant red. It took Chrono's mind off of Catherine as he tries to block the flame beam with his bare arms.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeZTEWLdMw
Catherine jumps up.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIDL5KvO0F7
"You're welcome!" Arsenio says from afar.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZOyC1d3jAt
"Thanks! Keep looking for openings!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpPvJGfurJ
As Arsenio keeps circling the area, and the crowd becomes more congested, Catherine continues to fight, dodging and landing punches. She even managed to crack the golden frame that latched onto Chrono's face. The both of them couldn't tell if they were trembling from fatigue or excitement. Their legs were just about to give in, when Chrono stops attacking.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEO9mJFMDD
"A-alright...you've proven your worth.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpe83c0mxG
"Is this Chrono we're speaking to?" Arsenio asks as his Gift charges up once again and picks Catherine up.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYBqNxaRk7a
"I-I'm not sure.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjbnz4RzwSw
"Make sure you're sure. I'd hate to hit you with this thing for no reason."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzAeFlt0VPn
"I'm in the conscious of Chrono yes, but..." he looks at his hands and feels against face. "I don't know what body I'm in anymore.."
More cracks split the golden covering, from head to toe.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDpCLyUrnuq
Chrono shakes his head. "N-nevermind! Let us continue with the celebration, yes?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5NC5Qx0KN9
"To be honest, I'm worn out..."
Catherine huffed. "You're like...crazy strong."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJAoi8Nw7h
"I-I'll make it up to you, I swear!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEAmOKUUbLM
Piravit peeks from the floor. "Can I come out now?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbhUBEEDoFK
"Depends.." Chrono says. "Are you willing to take your side of the deal?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVPxkdNseOd
"Eep!" Piravit says, coiling itself around Catherine and hiding behind her. "A-Ah! My part of the deal...?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeKbxUdc5wA
"You shall give me full entry to your dimension. That was your promise to me."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXRho7tN2x4
"...Fine. But you can't keep using Chrono as a vessel for your battles."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcLO3oOXSzM
Chrono stares for a second, before hitting the ground, parts of his golden shell chipping off.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhWR8swJIek
The Time Beast appears as a ghost, similar to Piravit, above Chrono's body. His body pulls from the floor, as he dusts himself off.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSQDwMccqo
"He's suppressed his power...I think."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjatcJBVZPG
"Wait, they have a gender?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoi2MErLN9
"Yeah..." Piravit answered. "It is quite obvious that I'm female. No whiskers, see?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWDJgJtevhe
"I guess.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHsrWbzh0n1
"Catherine! Arsenio!" Isabelle says, stumbling her own feet. "A-Are you two alright?"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡibMR5m7Lpg
"I'm good. Not sure about Catherine though."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8mt3Pd3nZZ
"Nah, I'll be alright. I don't think he broke anything."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnI9t7gmqL6
Nathaniel also approaches them with another tart in hand.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVA6MXSQTN
"Nate! You just had one of those things!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2ML8myNAgD
"I must try every single flavor." He says taking another giant bite.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKpM6oGsPXn
"..M-Maybe we should g-go.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvyl8Rf9tyD
"Are you sure? We can just...continue the party as normal.."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wFVyjjJVq
Arsenio shrugs. "Seems like a plan to me."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaSX5VFvs5x
Slowly, the music begins to play. Partners begin to group together. It was like the party was uninterrupted the entire time.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrT60lyA7Wo
The Prodigies were peppered with compliments of their strength, but eventually, the other participants calmed down and went back to chat amongst themselves. The Prodigies had fun eating and dancing to the music that wafted throughout the realm air.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn7zuBWof7R
After the party, the Prodigies carried Chrono back into the House of Father Time.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1bh2a6QSP
"Thank you, you four. Hopefully I can get around with solving some of your Timebreaker problems sometime!"
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvQqg0tYWLP
"We'd greatly appreciate it. We don't know how strong the next one'll be."
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXJMoHfvUZF
Chrono waves them away as they go back to the Sanctuary. Ezra was already asleep when they returned, wrapped up in a blanket.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPRz9iwOuCR
"Well, we should get some rest too."
Catherine announced.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡREoyqE6HWh
"Way ahead of you." Arsenio says, dropping into the bed.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jjzZ3KHzz
Everyone puts themselves to bed for the night, and the Prodigies fall asleep.
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6zS92zc6g
Silently, in the middle of the night, someone's Tempural Energy swarmed the room...
443Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRej1QajWiH
