INTRO:
A long ago, in long-long galaxy, in long-long planet, has existed the Guardia kingdom. In this kingdom lived guy, Crono. In one day he slept quietly, but suddenly...
CHAPTER 1. Crono go to the Past.
- Crono...
- Crono!
The mother's voice interrupted Crono's dream.
- Good morning, Crono!
"Damn it... She allows not me to rest never!", thought Crono. Mother opened window, and sunny light illuminated room. Crono heard sound of surf and bird cries. He must get up.
- You forget? Today is great day!
Crono kept silence.
- Dear, today is the Millenial Annivarsary of our kingdom!
- Hm... Today is the Millenial Fair, right? - asked Crono.
- You remember? You were so excited about this fair, did you?
Crono remembered: he has asked to wake him.
- Wake up, sleepy head! - Mother went to kitchen.
After few minutes Crono appeared here.
- Finally! By the way, while you slept, your girlfriend came, - said mother.
- Who? My... girlfriend?
- Um, this girl in glasses...
- Lucca?
- Yes, Lucca. She invited you to see your new invention.
- Ah, Lucca...
Lucca has great inventor of Porre. She has clever, but not very beautiful girl (in Crono optinion). Lucca has famous in Gurdia: she created many inventions, but all your inventions wrought not correctly never. Crono went to fair, but first he comed in wine shop. The shop has closed. Then Crono continued your path to fair. It was opened already, and many peoples was there: they comed from all Guardia kingdom. Merchants opened your tents. Crono saw the Tent of Horror of famous juggler, Norstein Bekkler. Near Melchior, the great swordsmith from the Medina, sold your weapons. Crono came to him and bought the sword. Now all are envy him! Then Crono came another tent.
- Does beer exist? - asked Crono.
- Sorry, tonic only.
- What's price?
- Very low, guy! 10 guilders only, right?
Crono bought 3 tonics. He decided to drink one tonic now and sat down to the bench. Little boy sat also there.
- Life is good, but good life better! - said Crono and drank the beer.
[NB: This quotation is from popular Soviet comedy film, "Caucasian prisoner".]
- Right! Because we beat Magus! - answered boy.
Magus was dark sorcerer. The Guardia was at war with his monster army 400 years ago. After victory piece came for a long time. Slightly tight Crono wanted to commit heroic deeds. He took noise to some robot and came up to it.
- They call me Gato... - sang robot.
- Magus must die! Die, demon!- cried Crono and stabed robot. It transformed to heap of metal fragments. "It's Lucca's robot!", thought Crono. He remembered about Lucca's request and went to fairgrounds. Around Leene's Bell Crono collided with the some girl.
- Fuck! - said he.
- Oh! Sorry! You are OK? - said she.
Crono stood up and looked to girl. "This girl is beautiful!", thought he.
- All right, girl. You sorry me, OK? Stop! This is your item? - Crono saw and picked up pendant.
- Oh! It's my pendant! Our family relic! Thanks you... What's your name?
- What? Ah, I'm Crono.
- Crono... Oooh, what's very beautiful name! And I'm Marle.
- It's cool name also, - said Crono.
- Yes, it's from Bob Marley. Crono, I came to see Festival, but I don't know anyone around there! You live in this town, right? Would you mind, if I walked around with you for while?
- Of course, babe. No problems!
- Oh, Crono, you are true gentleman!
They examined fair, but Crono remembered about Lucca.
- Marle, my... familiar waits me. She is inventor and created some machine.
- Interest! Can I see too?
They came to Lucca together. Lucca and Taban, her father, stood before some two blue platforms. Crono approached nearer.
- Crono, shit of Magus! Where you loafs? - old girlfriend greeted him politely.
Crono loked at strange device.
- Okay, fuck off. See, it's my new invention.
- What's it?
- It's the Telepod. You stand up to left platform, and appear on right platform, - explained Taban.
- Do you want to test it? - asked Lucca.
- But... If it breaks?
- Don't worry! It's my hundredth invention already, it must work correctly for sure! It's the Probability Theory. Don't reason for alarm. Very well!
Lucca pushed Crono, and he appeared in left platform. Artful girl threw switch, Taban threw another switch, and Crono disappeared. But he appeared on right platform.
- WOW!!! - exclaimed spactators.
- Thanks, Crono! We can't find volunteer, - said Lucca.
- Cool! I want to test it, too! - said Marle.
Lucca looked at girl.
- Hey, Crono, where did you pick up this bit... beautiful girl?
Marle stood up to left pad.
- You're sure? There's still time to change your mind! - said Taban.
- No! I want!
- Then forward!
Lucca and Taban threw switches. But happened strange event. The circle appeared in air, and Marle sucked in it. Then circle disappered, with girl. Spectators began to revolt.
- The her invention breaks again!
- That Lucca can't create worked devices!
All leaved the fairgrounds. Only Crono, Lucca and Taban rested near Telepod. Though Crono tried to go away, but Lucca stoped him.
- Crono! You brought her here, YOU get her back?
- W-What?!
- Stand up to left pad!
- But...
- Faster!
Crono stood up to left pad. He has a bad foreboding. Marle's pendant rested on pad, and Crono picked up it.
- I take this nice pendant... For... hmm... research, - said Lucca.
Crono tried to leave pad, but Lucca and Taban forestalled him. They threw switches, and the circle appeared now.
- NOOO!!! - cried Crono, but he sucked in circle. Lucca smiled.
- Good luck, Crono! May be, you will find this girl. May be, you will
be back with her.
- Won't they both be lost? - asked Taban.
- Then... He deserved it. He betrayed me! And I loved him! Crono, you're a bastard! You're the son of Magus!
Lucca placed the pendant to pocket.
