" This can't be the way the world ends... " - Marle
OK, I know that the game is a lil bit different every time you play it, but
I can't play it 5 or 6 times just to make this script *perfect* :P I used
my favorite characters as often as I could. Marle & Lucca fans, sorry,
I hate them both :P Once I get Magus, he's always, always in my party. Besides
that, I often used Robo & Ayla. That's it. Have fun.

...Crono...Crono! Good morning Crono!
MOM
Come on, sleepy head! Get up!
Ah, Leene's Bell makes such beautiful music!
You were so excited about the Millenial Fair that you didn't sleep well, did
you...?
I want you to behave yourself today!
Let's get moving, now!
( Crono gets up)
MOM
Finally!
By the way, that inventor friend of yours...
Uh-you know...!
Oh dear, I've forgotten her name!
That's right, Lucca!
Don't forget that she invited you to see her new invention!
Run along now, and be back before dinner!
( Crono meets Marle at the Fair )
GIRL
Hey!
Ouch, that hurt!
I'm so sorry! Are you ok?
Uh oh... My pendant!
Oh no! Don't tell me I lost it!
* Crono picks up the pendant
GIRL
Oh, thank goodness! My pendant!
It has a lot of sentimental value!
May I have it back?
* Yes
I came to see the festival!
You... Live in this town, don't you?!
I feel a little out of place here.
Would you mind if I walked around with you for a while?
* Sure
GIRL
You're a true gentleman!
Oh by the way... My name is, er... Marle!
And you're?
Marle
Crono? What a nice name! Pleased to meet you! Now, lead on!
( Lucca's new invention )
Taban
Step right on, any of you who have the time and courage! Our "Super Dimension
Warp" is the invention of
the century!
To use it, jump here...
...And you'll get teleported here!
It's the masterwork of my beautiful daughter, Lucca.
Lucca
Crono!
Where've you been?
No one wants to try the telepod!
How about you?
Marle
It looks like fun!
I'll watch while you try it out!
Lucca
Just hop onto the left pod!
Taban
All systems on!
Lucca
Begin energy transfer!
* Crono's been teleported
ALL
Oh wow. That was great!
Marle
What a kick!
I want to try it to!
Lucca
Huh?
Hey Crono, how did you pick up a cutie like her?
Marle
Hang on Crono!
I'll be right there!
Taban
Behold, ladies and gentleman, as this vision of loveliness steps aboard the
machine!
Marle
Don't go away! I'll be right back!
Taban
You're sure about this? There's still time to change your mind!
Marle
No way! Throw the switch!
Taban
Okay, evevryone, let's give her a great big hand when she reappears!
Taban
All systems on!
Lucca
Begin energy transfer!
Marle
What's happening?
My pendant.. It's...
Lucca
Huh?
* Marle disappears into the Time Gate
Taban
Lucca!
Where is she?!
Show's over folks, Let's head along now!
What's going on Lucca?
WHERE IS SHE?
Lucca
The way she disappeared.... It couldn't have been the Telepod!
The warp field seemed to be affected by her pendant...
Taban
What are we going to do now?
Lucca
She's so familiar! I KNOW I've seen her somewhere...
Crono!
Taban
You're actually going to do it?!
What a fine lad!
Lucca
Listen!
I don't know where this machine is going to send you, but we haven't any other
choice...
Taban
Won't they both be lost?
Lucca
This is our only hope!
That pendant seems to be they key, so hang onto it Crono, and brace yourself!
Taban
All systems on!
Lucca
Begin energy transfer!
Power to full!
Taban
Roger!
Lucca
Power! Give me more power!
Taban
Roger!
Lucca
There! We did it!
I'll follow you after I know what went wrong.
Good luck, Crono!
CHAPTER 2
THE QUEEN RETURNS
* At the Guardia castle
Soldier
Wait! Who goes there?
Check out that hair! (editor's note: The hair itself says: Akira Toryiama
^_^)
Are you one of Magus's troopers?
Soldier 2
Hardly! This kid never would have made the cut!
Show us your stamp collection, son!
Soldier 1
Har Har! Now beat it, shrimp!
( )
Stop that at once!
Soldier
Queen Leene!
Queen
Show your manners!
This is a friend of mine!
Soldier
But there's something odd about him!
Queen
You refuse to obey my orders?
Soldier
Forgive me my lady!
Please enter, Sir!
Queen
*giggle*
*Inside the Castle*
King
Sir! I understand you are the one who saved my dear wife, the Queen!
But can you tell me what happened?
Leene's acting rather odd...
And she seems to have lost her coral pin, whichis something she guarded with
her life...
Forgive me! You must be tired!
We can talk about this later.
Please rest in the Knight's quarters, downstaits, to the left!
( In Queen's room )
Queen
Ah! There you are!
Please leave us... I need to talk to this individual.
Attendants
Certainly your Highness!
Queen
Come nearer, Sir...
*giggle*
Fooled you, didn't I, Crono?
Marle
It's me!
But everyone calls me, Leene!
I'm so relieved you're here!
We barely know each other but somehow I knew you'd come for me...
Thank you, Crono!
*The screen turns green*
Marle
S, something's wrong!!!
W, what's happening?!
It feels like.. I'm being torn apart!
Help me, Crono!
I'm scared!!!
Please... Crono!
...h, help me!!!
*Lucca disappears
Lucca
Crono!
Huff, puff... you're okay!
Did you find the girl?
GONE?!
Whadd'ya mean she's gone?!
Hmmm... It's just as I thiught...
I knew I recognized her!
And this looks identical to the castle in OUR time!
I'll bet they mistook that girl for her ancestor...
You see, she's a member of the royal family in OUR time!
She's Princess Nadia!
Crono
!!!
Lucca
Marle, that is, Princess Nadia, is a descendant of Queen Leene!
Queen Leene has been kidnapped.
As I recall, someone was supposed to have saved her.
But history has been changed!
Marle looks so much like Leene, that they probobly called off their search
when she appeared here.
But if the real Queen is killed...
... Marle will simply disappear...
There might still be time!
If we can save Leene, history as we know it should remain unchanged!
Something must have happened to the Queen in this area.
As a result, Princess Nadia ceases to exist!
Hurry!
We have to find the real Queen!
CHAPTER 3
THE QUEEN IS GONE
600AD
( In the Cathedral )
*After the battle with Nega-ettes
Frog
Power thine guard and thou'rt allowing the enemy in.
Thou'rt here to save the Queen?
The lair is deep within.
Will thee accompany me?
Lucca
A... FROG?
Crono, it's a talking FROG!
I hate frogs!
Frog
My guise not incur thy trust...
Very well, do as thee please.
But I shall save the Queen.
Lucca
W, wait!
Lucca
You don't seem like a bad... ...uh, person-frog-thing... I mean....
Lucca
Crono!
What should we do?
*Go with the Frog
Lucca
I'll just have to handle it! I mean... deal with... him!
What's your name?
Frog
Frog will do.
Lucca
All right...
Nice to meet you Frog.
Frog
Mayhap a hidden door lurks nigh? Let us search the environs...
( At the end of the Cathedral )
( ? )
Prepare yourself Queen Leene...
Leene
Frog!
Frog
Majesty, stand back, and allow us the honor...
Leene
Be careful!
Chancellor
Gyah, ha, ha...
It's useless to fight...
No one will leave here alive!
Stupid Frog! It's time you jumped off this mortal coil!
True-form.. CHANGE!
* After the battle...
Leene
You came to rescue me! Thank you, Frog.
Frog
The King awaits.
Let us return to the castle...
Frog
I thank thee Crono, and Lucca.
Leene
Yes, thank you so much.
Please join us.
Let's return to the castle...
( At the Castle )
King Guardia
You had me worried, Leene...
Chancellor
That no good Yakra!
Impersonating me and kidnapping the Queen!
We MUST create a criminal justice system to do away with such fiends.
Frog
I failed to protect Queen Leene. I hath disgraced thee.
Leene
Frog!
Frog
'Twas a fault of mine, which endangered the Queen.
I shall depart for good.
Crono, you hath potential to be a good swordsman!
Lucca
...
Froggy, you weren't such a bad guy either...
( Back in Marle's room)
* Marle reappears
Marle
Huh?
What happened?
Lucca
Princess Nadia!
Marle
Crono!
It was awful...
I can't recall it all...
I was somewhere cold, dark, and lonely...Is that what it's like to.... die?
Lucca
Welcome back Princess Nadia!
Marle
You risked your life to help me too?
"Princess...Nadia...?!"
Uh oh...
I guess you guys figured it out, huh?
Sorry Crono. I didn't mean to deceive you.
I'm Princess Nadia. My father is King Guardia the XXXIII.
I really enjoyed being with you at the fair.
But if you had known my identity...
Crono, you wouldn't have shown me around the fair, right!
* Right
See? I like Marle better than "Princess", anyway!
The real Queen's safe, right?
So let's go home, Crono!
( The Time Gate )
Marle
How do we get home?
Lucca
Your Highness, er, Princess... we...
Marle
Please call me Marle!
Lucca
Well then Marle, observe!
* Lucca opens the Time Gate
Marle
Wow!
Lucca! You're amazing!
Lucca
Ain't it the truth!
Oh, uh... I mean...
Marle
Enough with the false modesty! You have a real gift!
I would trade my royal ancestry for your genius in a heartbeat!
Lucca
Well, if you say so...
Anyway, I call this thing a "Gate"
It's kind of a portal that takes you to the same location in a different era.
Gates are very unstable, so I used the principal behind my Telepod device
to create a "Gate Key".
Now we can use them as we please.
Marle
But why did this gate suddenly appear?
Lucca
Either the Telepod had something to do with it, or... something else made
it.
Marle
This is getting pretty wierd. Let's at least had back to our own time!
Lucca
All right! Coming, Crono?
Marle
Phew! We're back!
Marle
Crono, Lucca, why don't you come home with me to the castle?
I'd like you to come over for dinner!
Lucca
Sorry for putting you through all that, Marle.
Marle
Are you joking? That's the most fun I've had in months!
And I have some new friends, too!
Lucca
Crono, be a gentleman and take her home.
I've got some work to do.
Marle
See you soon, Lucca!
Will you escort me home, Crono?
CHAPTER 4
WE'RE BACK!
1000 AD
( At the Castle )
Soldiers
Princess Nadia!
Chancellor
Are you allright? Where have you been?
I heard you were abducted!
We had soldiers searching for you!
Scoundrel! You're the one, huh? Kidnapping Princess Nadia!
Marle
No!
Crono's...
Chancellor
Admit it!
You confused her and tried to take over the throne!
Terrorist!
Marle
S, stop it!
Stop this at once!
Chancellor
What are you doing!
Soldier
But Princess Nadia said to...
Chancellor
Idiots!
Detain him!
Marle
Crono!
* At the Court
Chancellor
I'm the Chancellor, the prosecutor!
Pierre
I'm the lawyer, Pierre.
Chancellor
Members of the Court.
We now bring forth the defendant, Crono, who is charged with abducting Princess
Nadia.
Chancellor
What shall we do with him?
Fire, perhaps?
Hang him upside down for a few years?
Or... shall we employ the guillotine?
You the jury, shall decide his fate. Now, let us begin.
Judge
Crono, you are hereby ordered to tell the truth!
Pierre
Crono is charged with "Premeditated Abduction of Royalty". The question
is, did he kidnap Princess Nadia?
The answer? No, he did not. In fact, no "abduction' took place. The two
met completely by accident.
In fact, the Princess ASKED Crono if SHE could join HIM!
Chancellor
Is this true? Who actually started this whole mess?
* Marle did.
Just as I suspected! The defendant deliberately tried to get near the Princess!
The Princess then innocently followed you to Lucca's little sideshow.
Whereupon you both disappeared!
If that wasn't criminal adbuction, I don't know WHAT is!
And I have facts that throw the defendant's character into question!
Pierre
Objection!
This can't have any revelance whatsoever to this case.
Judge
Care to respond, Chancellor?
Chancellor
Crono's character is at the very core of this case!
Pierre
We have nothing to hide.
The issue here is MOTIVE.
Was there any motive for this fine citizen to kidnap Princess Nadia? No, there
was none.
Chancellor
What about ransom?
Crono, her furtune DID tempt you, did it not?
* No
Are you sure? You really weren't tempted?
* Not at all
Chancellor
That's enough I have no more questions.
Pierre
It is evident that my client is a fine noble young man!
Your honor, the defense rests.
Judge
Members of the jury...
If he is guilty, stand to the left.
If innocent, stand to the right.
Member 1
Not guilty
Member 2
Guilty
Member 3
Not Guilty
Member 4
Not Guilty
Member 5
Not Guilty
Member 6
Not Guilty
Member 7
Not Guilty
Judge
Order in the court!
A verdict has been reached!
The verdict is... not guilty!
But the fact remains, that even if he did not kidnap her, he ran off with
her.
3 days solitary confinement as punishment.
Chancellor
Take him away!
Marle
Now just a darn minute... (editor's note: I sure wonder what the Japanese
word was... ^^ )
Chancellor
Princess!
King
That's enough, my dear!
Marle
But Father... !
King
All I asked was for you to behave like a princess.
Even royalty must obey rules!
Leave the rest up to the Chancellor and forget about the events in town.
We're leaving!
Marle
Crono!!!
( In Jail )
Chancellor
This terrorist has tried to overthrow our kingdom!
He has been found guilty, and you must now carry out his sentence.
Supervisor
So THIS is the monster who kidnapped the princess!
Chancellor
The execution is 3 days away.
Do NOT let him out of your sight.
Supervisor
Execution?!
Strange, but I don't seem to recall hearing anything about an execution.
Chancellor
WHAT!!!
How dare you question ME!
The paperwork's probobly just been held up in the system!
Supervisor
Understood, Sir!
Guards!
Take the prisoner away!
CHAPTER 5
THE TRIAL
1000AD
* And finally, the day arrived...
Soldier
We're here to take you to your place of execution.
Come along.
( In the execution cell )
Soldier
We've sharpened up the guillotine...
Any last words?
Lucca
Crono!
I've come to save you!
Soldier
Who the heck are YOU?
Lucca
Get outta my way!
Take 5 you mugs!
* She kills the soldiers
So, what do you think of my new Zonker-38? Pretty cool, huh?
Let's blow this joint!
( After the battle with Dragon Tank )
Chancellor
They got the Dragon Tank!!! Fix it! Quickly!
Don't fool yourselves into thinking you've gotten away with this!
Soldiers
They're escaping!
Marle
Stop!
Soldiers
Princess Nadia!
Marle
This is my friend! Show him your respect!
Soldier
B,but...
Marle
Can't you take orders?
Soldier
Of course!
( )
Hold it right there!
Chancellor
Do as King Guardia XXXIII says!
Marle
Father...
King
Silcence Princess Nadia!
The throne comes before your personal wishes!
Marle
What?!
Just becouse I have a title doesn't mean I'm not a person!
King
You pick up strange ideas venturing outside!
Marle
I didn't "pick up" anything! It's called "common sense!"
King
Princess Nadia!
Marle
I despise you! I'm leaving!
Chancellor
Princess Nadia!
Marle
Come on Crono!
Chancellor
Don't just stand there! After them!
Soldier
There they are! Don't lose'em!
Marle
Looks like a dead end!
Lucca
A gate!
Marle
Come on!
Lucca
But we don't know where it'll take us!
Marle
Who cares?!
This place stinks anyway!
Chancellor
Princess Nadia!
Lucca
This is completely irrational.
Marle
Hurry, Crono!
Chancellor
They.... disappeared! o_O
* The party is teleported to 2300AD
Marle
Eeeek!
Lucca
Yeouch...!
Marle
There's no way the Chancellor can reach us here.
But, where are we?
Lucca
The civilization here seems so... advanced...
we're in another world.
CHAPTER 6
BEYOND THE RUINS
2300AD
( Arris Dome )
Old Man
You there, where're you from?...
Lucca
We came from the laboratories to the west.
Old Man
W, what?
Hey, we've got people who crossed the ruins!
( )
Say again?
You're joking?!
Old Man
So there ARE people who can beat up those freaky mutants...
Pardon me, I'm Doan. I'm the descendant of the Director of this info center.
In the basement, there's a huge computer and a storage center for food.
But we can't get through 'cause of the robot guards. It's a pity.
Doan
Are you going down below?
Marle
Of course!
Doan
But no one's ever returned from there.
Lucca
Gotta try, right?
Doan
...
It's nice to see spirited young people for a change.
Careful. now. And come back alive.
( After the battle with Guardian )
Marle
Phew!
Something reeks!
Lucca
Everything's completely rotten. The refrigeration must have failed...
Marle
Crono, look!!
...
...
Passed away long ago, I suppose...
He's holding something. What do you suppose this is?
Lucca
It looks like some kind of seed.
Marle
A seed?
Do you suppose it could grow in a place like this?
( At the Info Center )
Lucca
So this is the info center!
Good! The computer's still operational!
If we run a search on time warps, we might find our Gate!
Here, got it!
East of Arris Dome...
That would be Proto Dome, I believe...
Marle
Leave it to Lucca!
I'm beginning to think you could do anything with this device!
Say, what does this button do?
Lucca
1999 AD? Visual record of the "Day of Lavos"...
Marle
Uh, what...IS that?
Lucca
Lavos? Is that what's destroying our world?!
Marle
We must truly be in the future...
NO! NO WAY! I refuse to believe it!!
This...
this can't be the way the world ends...
Lucca
...
Marle
Crono...
There's only one thing we can do! We must change history! Just like Crono
did when he saved me!
Okay, Lucca?
Okay, Crono?!!
Lucca
I...guess so...
It was a stroke of luck that we were sent here through that Gate.
Crono
* Yes (or whatever was there )
Marle
Crono! Lucca! Together we can do this
Lucca
Let's take a second and do some more activities on Lavos's activites back
in our time period!
Next stop, Proto Dome!
( Upstairs )
Doan
You're back!
Well? What did you discover?
Marle
This is... our future!
Doan
???
Man
Who cares, where's the food?
Marle
This is all we could get...
Doan
Seeds...?
Lucca
You don't know how long the Enetron'll hold out.
Those seeds might be your only hope.
Marle
You have to stay alive! And so do we!
Doan
Huh...
You're strange...
You're different from us...
Marle
I think it's becouse we're healthy!
Doan
Heal-thy?
Got a nice ring to it!
We'll try growing the seeds...
What're those?
Doan
They just might be our future...
Heading for Proto Dome?
Go by the way of Laboratory 32, and take this with ya.
*Got 1 Bike Key!
Doan
It's a key to the Jet Bike in lab 32.
I used to ride it when I was young. I hope it still works...
They've got more powerful robots over there.
Take care, and stay... healthy!
(At Lab 32)
* Party is attacked by 4 robots
( )
Hold it right there!
Robots
Hey it's...!
... the MAN!
The Man
Like, thanks for the intro, babe!
Robots
...the MAN!
The Man
You lowlifes can call me Johny.
Now listen up. Part of an old highway leads through these ruins. Think you
could beat me in a bike race?
Use that "Jet Bike" and don't chicken out babe!
( After the race )
Johny
YOu beat me?
I don't get it!
You can challenge me anytime.
We'll ride the wind, babe!
( Proto Dome )
Marle
Wh,what's this?
Lucca
It's in bad shape...
... but it appears to be a humanoid robot!
Incredible!
...
I think I can fix it.
Marle
What?!
It might attack us!
Lucca
I'll make sure it won't.
Machines aren't capable of evil...
... humans make them that way.
Marle
Lucca, you... pity them, don't you?
Lucca
Let me get to work now, okay?
Marle
The door won't budge...
*After a while
Lucca
Right, that does it!
I'm going to give it some juice!
Robot
...
Marle
Good morning!
Robot
Mo.......
Good morning, mistress.
What is your command?
Marle
I'm not your "mistress", I'm Marle!
... and this is Crono...
... and Lucca here fixed you!
Robot
Understood.
Madam Lucca fixed me.
Lucca
Just Lucca will do.
Robot
Impossible.
That would be rude.
Lucca
Look, I hate formal titles!
Don't you, Marle?
Marle
Hate'em!
Robot
I understand, Lucca.
Lucca
All right! Now what's your name?
Robot
Name?
Ah, my serial number. It is R66-Y.
Lucca
R66-Y?
Cool!
Marle
No! That won't do at all!
Marle
Come on Chrono, let's give him a better name!
Robo...
Robo... That's perfect!
Your new name is Robo, okay?
Robo
I am... Robo.
Data storage complete.
Lucca
Hey Robo, why aren't there any people here?
Robo
...
What...
What has happened here?
There WERE many humans and others of my kind in this dome.
Lucca
I think something awful happened here...
Robo
...
It would appear so.
But how is it that you survived?
Lucca
We came through a time warp from the year 1000.
Marle
While exploring Arris Dome, we learned there was a gate here.
Lucca
We found you when we came looking for the Gate!
Marle
But the door to the inner chambers is locked, so we're out of luck...
Robo
The power is off.
If we go through the factory up north, I can pass through security and activate
this dome's generator.
Marle
You'd do that for us?
Robo
You repaired me.
Now it's my turn to help you.
But the generator won't run for long, so someone must stay behind to open
the door when the power's on.
Lucca
Then Marle or I will stay.
Who will stay behind?
* Lucca
Lucca
Right! I'll handle things here!
CHAPTER 7
THE FACTORY RUINS
2300 AD
( Factory )
Robo
These are my friends!
R-64Y, R-67Y, and R-69Y! Good to see you!
* A robot hits Robo
Robo
Wh, what are you doing?
R-64Y
You are defective.
R-67Y
You have been tained
Robo
Pardon?
I'm malfunctioning?
R-64Y
Affirmative.
Robo
A defect... I'm a defect...
R-69Y
Have you forgotten our mission?
All intruders must be eliminated!
Robo
THAT was my purpose?
R-64Y
You shame us! You must be destroyed!
* They attack Robo
Marle
Robo!
Crono, Robo's getting whipped!
Robo
Please stop.
Pl... ease...
Marle
Robo!
R-64Y
Now to take care of the intruders...
Marle
You cocky boxes of bolts! You'll never get away with this!
* After the battle
Marle
Waahh.. They trashed him... What should we do? Robo just got creamed!
Crono, let's take him back to Lucca.
Robo
C... Can you repair..me?
Lucca
Shhh, don't talk.
Robo
You are trying to save our world?
Lucca
I don't know how far we'll get, but that's the plan.
Anyway Robo, what are you going to do when you're repaired?
Robo
What am I... going to do?
Lucca
Yeah, I mean, what plans do you have for the future...
Robo
Lucca., no one has ever asked me that before!
* After a while
Robo
Good morning!
Marle
Robo! You're allright!
Lucca, you're incredible!
Lucca
I hope I never have to do that again...
Robo
Lucca, I have made up my mind.. I want to go with you...
Marle
Pardon?
Robo
There is nothing left for me here.
Together, maybe we can give this world a chance.
Lucca
Then let's go! The gate's up ahead!
Lucca
Hang on to your shorts!
(At the End of Time )
Robo
Where are we?
Old Man
Ah, more guests...!
Lucca
What do you mean "guest"?
And, WHERE are we?
Old Man
Why, this is the "End of Time" of course!
All lost travelers wind up here!
Now, where are you from?
Lucca
We're from Guardia Kingdom, circa 1000AD
Robo
I come from 2300AD...
Old Man
When 4 or more human beings step into a time warp, the Conservation of Time
theorem states they will turn
up at the space-time coordinates of least resistance.
Here.
Disturbances in the space-time continuu, have increased recently. Far too
many folks are just popping in here...
I fear something is having powerful effect on the very fabric of time...
Lucca
Which means one of us has to remain here.
Marle
Stay HERE? ALONE?
Old Man
It is pretty bleak here...
But not to worry. All time periods connect here...
You can visit your friends whenever you wish!
But yiu can never travel in groups greater than 3...
Robo
So, one of us must stay.
Lucca
Who'll it be, Crono?
Marle
Decide Crono!
Old Man
... So there you have it.

Marle
How do we get back to our time?
Old Man
You see those lovely pillars of light?
Those hook you up to different eras.
Once you've been through a gate, you can always use it to come back here.
To use a gate from here, step into the light and press the A button.
But beware the gate which leads from that bucket...
CHAPTER 8
THE END OF TIME
END OF TIME
Old Man
Hey...
Don't be in such a rush! before you go, take a peek inside the room behind
me!
Spekkio
What're you looking at?
I'm Spekkio.
The Master of War!
I've seen all kinds of battles from here.
How do I look to you guys?
* Strong! (e.n: suck up time! )
I see.
Let's put it this way. If you're strong, I look strong.
If you're weak, I look weak.
You are strong of will!
That's why the Old One let you through.
Long before you were born....
... There was a kingdom where magic flourished. Everyone there could use it!
But in time, people began to abuse their powers. It got so bad that no one
was allowed to use magic except
wizards.
But you have it...determination, I mean!
Magic needs power of the heart. It needs inner strength.
Magic is divided into 4 types:
Lighning, Fire, Water & Shadow.
You, the punk hairdo! You're "Lightning".
The one with goofy glasses is "Fire".
That's the biggest toy I've ever seen...
Hey, you're not alive, are you?
You've got great strength, however, since I can't measure your inner character,
I can't give any magic to you.
But your laser weapons will suffice. They can inflict "Shadow" type
damage.
Not just magic, bt EVERYTHING is based on the balance of those 4 powers.
Think "MAGIC", and, starting from the door, walk clockwise along
the walls of my room 3 times.
Very good!
Ipso facto, meeny moe, MAGICO!
So, fortified with magic! Wanna try it out?
* No ( :) )
You guys are too much! Bring newcomers to me.
Old Man
Hey...
Well, well, well...
People who lived long ago enjoyed ALL such powers.
Now, I know you're itching to go ripping back and forth through time, but
first you need to return to
your era.
And you must hurry.
The longer you remain here, the harder it will be to change that which must
be changed...
Stop by whenever you're in the area!

Knight Captain
Sir Crono!
Is that for us?
* Yes
Food rations!
The cook... he has saved us all!
Sir Crono, if I do not make it back... give my brother my thanks...
WHAT is going on here?!
Soldier
Magus's troops have launched an attack!
They're breaking through our defenses!
Knight Captain
Stop sniveling! It shames the Knights of the Square Table!
We shall DESTROY Magus's troops and bring honor to our king!
Soldier
But, we are far outnumbered!
Knight Captain
This is our last line of defense! We must let no one through!
Soldier
Understood!
Knight Captain
Our troops are suffering greatly.
Sir Crono, will you assist us?
* Yes
We are eternally in your debt!
You will find Magus's troops across the bridge! Take this with you!
* Got 1 Gold Helm
Ozzie
I'm Ozzie, Magus's top general! Those who defy Magus have to answer me!
Yes, my children... Give'em a taste of doom!
* After the fight
Those whimpers are stronger than I thought...
Robo
We've got him.
Ozzie
Seems I misjudged you. But I won't do that twice!
Grrrr! You're through!
* After the fight
Ozzie
Drat!
That's IT! Now you're finished!
You cannot win. You had best surrender.
Go Zombor!
Crush Sir Magus's enemies!

Kid
I'm the wind! Whoosh!
Kid
Stop!
Are you here for the Masamune?
* Yes
Thought so...
Wait a second, okay?
Oh bog brooooother...
Where are you, Masa?!
Masa
What is it, Mune?
( sees you )
Not again!?
So! You want to get a name for yourself by grabbing the Masamune? What a buffoon!
Mune
Humans are so... silly!
It's how you USE the sword that's important... not who owns it!
Masa
You can't even understand something as simple as that. That's why you're human.
Mune
What should we do?
Masa
The usual... test them.
You can entertain us for awhile.
Mune
Allright! Here we go!!!
Whoooosh!
* After the Battle
Mune
Hey, they're pretty tough.
Masa
Only Cyrus made it this far.
Mune
What should we do?
Masa
This time it's for real!
Mune
Allright, this is it...
Masa
Yeah. We mean business!
* After the Battle
Mune
They beat us, big brother...
Masa
That was fun!
Mune
Will they fix us?
Will they find us an owner?
Masa
Yeah, it'll be allright...
Robo
So, the Masamune's not just a myth...
But it's been long broken!
Masa
Allow me! We'll ride the wind to the base of mountain!
Mune
Good luck to you!
(At Frog's hideout)
Who's there?!
Frog
'Tis thee, Crono!
Thou art here to practice thy skill in swordplay?
What?
The King has been injured?!
...
I see...
'Tis a nary thing I canst do... Please be on thy way.
The hero I am not. I can do naught.
( At Tata's house )
Tata
I'm sorry evevryone.
Some frog guy dropped this in a cafe.
I thoguht I'd sell it, but then everyone started calling me a "Hero".
I couldn't bear to get rid of it!
I just can't fake it any longer.
Please take this!
( Back at Frog's hideout )
Frog
Thee hath returned?
Th, the hero medal!
Aye...
Then thou hast seen the lad.
Yes there's a nary thing I canst do against Magus.
The legendary Masamune is required to fight Magus.
And I've no right to wield it.
Please leave now...
Lucca
A broken sword...
It's part of the Masamune!
Robo
Something is written in archaic script. I will translate...
.................
R...o...i...h...c...l...e...m?
Roichlem?
System error! I reversed it! It says Melchior!
Lucca
Melchior?
That guy in Medina Village?
( At Melchior's Hut)
Melchior
It's you again? Came to see my collection?
Th, this sword... it's the Masamune!
How did you get it?
Lucca
Why would your name ne engraved on the sword?
Melchior
...
It's a... long story.
You do want to heart this story, right?
Lucca
Of course!
Tell us about the Masamune!
Is it possible to reforge it?
Melchior
Hmmmm...
It might be possible if we could get our hands on some Dreamstone, which the
sword is made of.
Robo
Dreamstone? No data in my memory banks of such a rock.
Melchior
You can't find it anymore. It was a red stone that was once used as money.
Unfortunately, it hasn't been available for a very long time.
CHAPTER 12

I've heard of it, of course...
It's a prehistoric mineral...
You might find it way back in the prehistoric era.

* The party is attacked by a bunch of reptites
Lucca
We're outnumbered!
* Ayla scares away the reptites
Lucca
Who IS that woman?
Robo
Her fighting capabilities exceed those of humans!
Now they're after us!
* After the fight
Lucca

Robo
Do not upset her.
She's rather agitated right now.
Lucca
We're not looking for a fight!
Crono!
Woman
You strong. What name?
Crono, huh?
Good name.

Robo
Y, yes?
Ayla
You different, but strong too.
Robo
It's becouse I'm a robot.
Ayla
Rawboot? What that? Ayla don't know.
Robo
It's a machine that looks like a man!
Ayla
What you say? No rubbish or Ayla, head go boom!
Crono, where from?
Robo
It is beyond her grasp.
Lucca
We're from way after the day after tomorrow.
Ayla
Ha, ha, you funny. Ayla like funny people.
Lucca
It's no use...
Ayla
Come to village! We talk and eat. Dance! Eat! Fun!!
Lucca
We'd love to go, but we've got to look for a Dreamstone now.

Marle
Morning Crono! Wasn't that fun last night?!
Wh... who made these footprints?!
Marle
It's, it's gone!
Oh no! The Gate Key is gone!
Robo
Whoever left these prints took the Gate Key!
It's too risky to use the Gate without it.
Marle
Crono!
Let's go find Ayla!
Ayla
Huh...
Crono, you up already?
*Yaaaawn*
Too much soup. Sleep like stone. *Burrp*.
Marle

Azala
What's this?!
Could those apes have made something THIS advanced?
Ayla
Azala!!
Azala
Ah, the apes have arrived!
Hmmm.
You're nothing like Ayla...
Tell me what this is, at once!
Tell Azala about the key?
* Yes.
Liars! No one would talk that easily. This should lousen your tongues.
Come, Nizbel!
* After the Battle
Azala

THE MASAMUNE!
1000AD - 600AD
Melchior
You found some Dreamstone?!
Then I'll repair the Masamune!
HOW on earth did you get the Masamune... and the Dreamstone?
No, don't tell me. I don't think my heart could take it.
It'll take a little while to fix this...
Robo
I shall help also.
Melchior
To repair the Masamune, we must process the Dreamstone, and activate the sword.
You work on the Dreamstone, and I'll work on the Dreamstone, and I'll work
on the sword.
Robo
Understood.
Melchior
All right, it's done!
Now, bring me the Dreamstone.
Robo
Understood.
Melchior
All right, let's get started.

Cyrus
Yes, it's time we took back the Medal from the Frog King.
And I'd like to see that mythical sword for myself.
Guardia
But Cyrus, the Kingdom needs you!
And Leene and I need you. You must return to us!
Cyrus
As long as there is life in these bones, I shall return!
By your leave...
Soldier

I've changed so much.
Alas, poor Cyrus...!
Frog

Frog
Though we may fail...let us go to Magus's lair.
Thou knowest his power?
Robo
We must do it to save our future!
Marle
We won't be beaten by a bad guy!
(At the Magic Cave)

Cyrus
You're a marshmallow, Glenn...
* Another flashback at Zanon's bridge
Cyrus
Hey Glenn... I've been thinking about becoming a Knight...
Glenn
I knew you were going to enlist! You'll make a great warrior!
Cyrus
Why don't you join too?
Glenn
I...don't think I'd make the cut.
Cyrus
But, why?
You're better with a sword than I am!
Glenn
I don't know... I think I'd really lose it if I had to hurt someone.
* Another flashback like before
Glenn

Frog
This can only be...
Magus's castle!
CHAPTER 15

( Inside the Castle )
Frog
Ozzie!
Ozzie
Welcome Glenn! Or should I say, Sir Froggy! Mwa ha!Say, loks like you got
some replacement for
Cyrus!
Magus is a tad busy right now. You'll have to take up your business with me...
...the swordsman Slash, and Flea, the magician...
And...!
You'll have to defeat all 100 of the beasts in Magus's castle!
( In the left wing )
Frog
It's been ages, Sir Slush!...
Slash
That's SLASH, you slimy dot!
Still playing a comedian, eh Glenn?
You'd be singing a different tune if Cyrus hadn't been there with you last
time!
You'd have to fit right in with those boney fellows you just busted up!
* After the battle
Slash
Unbelievable!
But falling in the line of duty to Magus...
... leaves me with few regrets...!
( In the right wing )
Frog
Wait! This isn't Flea!
Where's the REAL Flea?
Bat
Mwa ha...
Here, over here...
Giving up, little tadpole?
Robo
And who is this fiend?
Frog
Keep your guard up!
This is no ordinary woman!
Meet Flea, the magician!
Flea
What the...?!
I'm a GUY! ;D =>
Robo
But its exterior is that of a female...
Flea
Male... Female...what's the difference?
Power is beautiful, and I've got the power!
Poor little Froggy... You must be lonely now that Cyrus is gone...
And to be turned into something so hideous! Dreadful!
But since you've brought new friends over to play...
...I'll show you all a good time!
* After the battle
Flea
How can this be...
Sir Magus...
(Top of the Castle)
Frog
Thy time hath cometh, Sir Ozzie.
Ozzie
Har har har!
I'm sure Sir Magus has already called for reinforcements...!
Wait until Lavos arrives!!
I shan't be defeated!
No form of attack will break MY barrier!
Ozzie
Mwee, hee, hee...
Eh?!
* He falls into a hole
Robo
What was that guy's problem?

Kissed any princesses lately?
Frog
I rather enjoy this form. And I oweth it all to you!
I have something for you!
Magus
Ah... The Masamune...
I bet you're just dying to use it...
The Black Wind begins to blow...
Ok... Give me your best shot!
If you're prepared for the void...
* After the _long_ battle
Magus
W... What have you done to the Masamune...?
Robo
It's a large-scale energy reaction!
Frog
Could it be... Lavos?
Magus
Bat timing!
Don't wake up on me now...!
Robo
What do you mean?
According to my records, Lavos was born here, at THIS precise moment....
Magus
You fools!
I only "summoned" him!
He lives in the inner earth, absorbing the land's power and growing even stronger!
Robo
Then my data must be incorrect!
Frog
What's going on?!
Robo
Impossible!
A gate this large should not exist!
Magus
You!
If you hadn't shown up...!
Robo
It's an enormous gravity well!
Frog
Whoa...!!

Blue-hair more tasty?
Frog

Ayla
Lavos?
Not worry now.
You rest.
Hurt bad.

I will not allow thee to meet thy demise alone.
Ayla

Hear that lovely voice?
You'll soon become the best of friends!
Azal
Red star...
Fall!!!!!!
Stain the earth...RED!
Though it may be our fate to perish, we will not simply hand this world over
to you!
Mwa ha ha! With this Black Tyrano I can finally exterminate those filthy apes!
* After the battle
Azala
No...It can't be!
Could the heavens truly have sided with the apes?
Listen, primates, and let it be known.
We Reptites fought bravely to the bitter end!
Ayla
Ayla understand...
?!
Azala
Soon, stones of fire will rain down.
Flames shall scorch the land.
The burned out plains will slowly freeze, ushering in a long, cruel ice age.
Mwa,ha,ha...what a treat!
You will wish you went along with us!
Mwa ha!
Ayla
Lavos...
Robo
Lavos... Impossible!

Robo
So Lavos was "born" here...
Ayla
Lavos huge!
Crono fight it?
Crono!
We go where Lavos fall!

Lavos should be weaker now.
Perhaps we can put an end to him?
A Gate has formed!
Ayla
Lavos very fast!
Deep under earth already.
Robo
It appears that the immense energy that Lavos radiates alters time and creates
Gates.
Ayla
What wrong, Crono?
Fight Lavos!
Go in here.
yes?
* Party enters the gate and ends up in 12000BC
Robo
The time gyro says...
What?!
12,000 years in the past?!
That was some trip!
Ayla
Where this, Crono?
CHAPTER 18
THE MAGIC KINGDOM
12,000 BC
( In the Zeal Palace, Schala's bedroom )
Janus
Schala!!
Schala
Oh, you're back Janus!
Is something wrong?
Janus
The black wind...
Schala
You feel it too?
Don't worry, it'll be allright.
Now, hold onto this.
Janus
What is it?
Schala
It's a kind of amulet.
If something should happen, it'll protect you.
I wish I could be with you always...
But mother has other plans.
Janus
She's NOT our mother!
She looks like mother, but inside she has changed.
Schala
.......
Still I can't...
Janus, I'm sorry.
Servant
The Queen asks for your immediate presence at the Ocean Palace.
Schala
All right.
Well, Janus...
I'll be going.
* The party opens the gate to the Queen's Hall
Ayla
Ayla go!
No fear, Crono!
Robo
There's no doubt.
Marle's pendant is made of the Guru's Rock.
( In the Hall )
Queen
Who are you?
How did you get in here?
Prophet
Your majesty...
They are the evildoers I warned you of.
Queen
How DARE you think you could oppose me, you...foreigners!
You're worse than the Gurus!
Fools!
Dalton, take them away!
Dalton
Yes Ma'am!
By your leave...
Golem!
* After the (lost) battle
Queen
Mwa,ha,ha...
Fear not! You won't die... Immediately, that is!
By the time we're through with you, you'll be begging us to end your suffering.
What a delicious diversion!
* After a while
Janus
Hmph! Idiots...
What will you do, Schala?
Schala
Let us rescue them.
Janus
I think it's useless. Besides, if they escape, you'll be in trouble.
Schala
Don't worry about me.
They just might be able to rescue the Gurus.
* Schala lets the party escape
Are you all right?
Quickly, escpape from the palace!
And if you can, please rescue Melchior!
He was sent to the Mountain of Woe for opposing the Queen.
Please!
You have to help him!
Prophet
I'm afraid I can't allow that...
Your meddling tires me.
You'll... just have to disappear!
Schala
You mustn't!
Prophet
......!
Janus Stop!
Alfador
*meow*
Prophet
Okay... I'll spare them.
But in return, you WILL cooperate. Schala!
Now, show me how you came here.
* They lead the Prophet and Schala to the Time Gate.
Prophet
Now Schala!
After I throw them in, I want you to seal the portal shut.
Schala
N,no!
You can't make me!
Prophet
Obey me!
Their lives are at stake!
Schala
I... oh, all right.
* Schala shuts the portal
Schala
Please forgive me...
( Back in 65,000,000 BC )
Robo
Why would the Prophet spare us?
Ayla
They take energy from Lavos.
Lavos not get weak?
Robo
Wait. The crest on the doors that the pendant opens...
I have seen them in my own time!
Let us return to my time!
CHAPTER 19
BREAK THE SEAL!
2300 AD
( Keeper's Dome )
" To those who opened the door... "
I am Belthasar, the Guru of Reason. I once lived in the Kingdom of Zeal.
A great disaster in Zeal somehow threw me into this era.
To my surprise, Lavos exists here, and I suspect, in other periods as well.
Aeons ago, Lavos descended from heavens.
Burrowing deep into the world's core, he began to consume our planet's energy,
and grow stronger.
Lavos disappeared briefly when he was summoned away by a great wizard who
lived in Guardia, in the year 600.
In 1999, Lavos claims this area, and reigns from high atop Death Peak.
Lavos continues to replicate... like a giant parasite, he is consuming our
world.
Forced to live here, I continued to conduct research on Lavos. But I am growing
old.
And it's impossible to keep sane in such trying times. So before I lose it
completely, I shall safeguard
my data, and my ultimate creation...
How I long to return home...
But I have grown frail...
So you... YOU, who have opened the door!
I leave things in your hands.
Only by mastering time, itself, do you stand a chance against Lavos.
The odds will be against you...
But you are true heros.
The world is in your hands.
Open now, the last door, and take what you find there.
My last invention...
My "Wings of Time" ...
Robo
The Wings of Time!
I believe I have heard of this device.
Frog
This... moves through time?
Strange Creature
Scared you, didn't I?
It's me... BELTHASAR!
I copied my memory into this thing.
What do you think?
Anyway, there's something I need to explain.
Namely, how to transcend time!
( he explains how to use the Wings of Time )
CHAPTER 20
THE GURU ON MT. WOE
12000 BC
* After the battle against Giga Gaia
Robo
Mr. Melchior?
Melchior
Indeed, I am Melchior. Have we met before?
More importantly, can you tell me anything about the Ocean Palace?
I see... the Queen has degenerated to that degree...
The more energy the Mammon Machine absorbs, the further the Queen degenerates.
Her spirit has been stolen by the infamous immortal, Lavos.
We must flee!
The seal has been broken!
The mountain will collapse!
( Earthbound Village )
Man
Elder! Mountain of Woe is about to crumble!
Kid
Mommy, the mountain's gonna fall!
Melchior
Lavos sleeps deep underground, while consuming the energy of this planet.
If the Mammon Machine is brought closer to him, he may awaken!
We must hurry before it's too late!
Man
Elder! Schala is here!
Melchior
What? Schala's here?
Elder
Miss Schala... Why have you come to such a miserable place?
Schala
Stop degenerating yourselves!
We Enlighted Ones were once the same as you.
The only difference is that we are under Lavos's control...
Janus
What a filthy hovel.
Schala
Melchior....
After the Mountain of Woe fell, I thought I would find you here!
Melchior
Is it safe for you to leave the palace?
Schala
That no longer matters.
The Ocean Palace is now operational!
Melchior
Then all is lost!
Schala
But without me, the Mammon Machine won't work.
I have turned my back against that evil device!
I've kept the Skyway open. Hurry! You must stop... my mother!
( )
Why don't we keep it right there...
Schala
Dalton!
Dalton
Tisk, tisk, tisk my dear.
Your presence is required elsewhere!
Melchior
Dalton! Leave her alone!
Dalton
Ah! The geezer speaks!
Silence, old man!
Melchior
Argh!
Dalton (to Schala)
You'll come to the Ocean Palace with me.
Do anything funny, and Schala's dust. Got it?
Janus
Schala!
Dalton
The Queen's children all seem to have a problem with authority, don't they?
Dalton
Stay back. The life of this woman means nothing to me!
Shall we get going, Schala, dear? Your mother awaits!
* They disappear
Frog
Melchior!
Melchior
I'm all right.
But we must save Schala, or else...
Elder
Impossible!
Even though it's coming from YOU, Melchior...
Mechior
If the Queen is allowed to fulfill, all life as we know it, is doomed!
( To Chrono )
You're willing to challange the queen?
You've done so much for us...
and I don't even know your name!
Robo
You've already helped us.
Let us return the favor.
Melchior
What ARE you talking about?
Frog
Crono, let us be on our way!
Melchior
Wait, take this with you.
It's made from the same red stone as the Mammon Machine.
With it, you can destroy the machine!
* Got 1 Ruby Knife.

CHRONO TRIGGER SCRIPT PART 3
CHAPTER 21
WHAT LIES BEYOND?
12,000 BC
( Zeal Palace )
Dalton
Phooey!
Why is the Prophet allowed inside while I'm stuck with guard duty?
Ha!
There you are...
I let the Prophet go, knowing he'd mess up sooner or later.
But I've no use for you anymore.
You're history!
* After the battle
Dalton
Darn! Burrrp!
N...nooooooo!
I'm going to be immortal!
I CAN'T be beaten now!
* He disappears
CHAPTER 22
LAVOS BECKONS
12,000 BC
( Inside the Ocean Palace )
Mune
The black energy grows...
Something scary is waking up!
* Deep inside the palace
Queen Zeal
Schala, raise the power of the Mammon Machine to its limit!
Schala
.......
Zeal
Schala!
You dare to disobey me?!
Schala
All right, mother...
Zeal
Oh.. what bright splendor!
The incredible power of Lavos!
Schala
Aagh....
Prophet
.......
( Deep into the Palace )
Masa
The ancient Red Rock has been passed down through the ages. From it, a magic
pendant, and a knife were
made.
We embody Melchior's dreams, sealed, within the knife...
Now hurry, if you plan to confront the queen. We're counting on you!
(At the end of the Palace )
Queen Zeal
Ahh, I can feel it!
The pulse of eternal life!!!
Ha,ha,ha...!
Schala
D...dark.. force...wild energy!
Aughhh!
* She falls
Prophet
......!!
Servant
Th, the Mammon Machine!
Your majesty, it's too dangerous!
Schala
Mother..!
Queen
Don't stop Schala!
We're almost there...
Immortality will be ours!
Zeal will have the glory it deserves
Mwa,ha,ha....
Too long have I waited!
( In front of Zeal's room )
Dalton
You made it THIS far.
Maybe I underestimated you...
But this is the end!
THEY will take care of you!
Come, GolemTwins!
* After the battle
Dalton
They beat the GolemTwins!?
All right, this calls for the GolemBoss.
W, what's this strange force?
Could this be... Lavos's energy?!
...
I've got a bad feeling about this...
All my work will be in vain if I expire before I'm immortal!
This is your lucky day!
Bye-bye!
* Disappears
( In Zeal's room )
Nu
This is the hall of the Mammon Machine...
Now is the time to turn back, nu...
* Crono pushes it out of the way :)
Lucca
We just made it in time!
It's a pity, but I'll have to turn this machine off!
Frog
We shan't allow thee to meddle with Lavos, Queen!
Schala
You're..!
Help!!
Prophet
Schala..!
Queen
What are you doing Schala?
I need your help here!
Lucca
Quickly Crono!
There's no time!
Frog
Crono, use the old man's knife to stop the Machine!
Masa
Here we go Mune!
Mune
Ready, big brother!
* Crono attacks the machine with Ruby Knife
Frog
T, 'tis...
...the Masamune?!
Queen Zeal
Th, the Mammon Machine!?
Prophet
It's coming..!
Schala
N, no stop!
The sword alone can't stop it!
* Lavos roars
* The party fights Lavos and loses
Prophet
I've waited for this...
Prophet ( who turns out to be... Magus! )
I've been waiting for you, Lavos.
I swore long time ago... That I'd destroy you!
No matter what the price!
It is time to fulfill that vow. Feel my wrath, Lavos!
Zeal
What do you think you can do?
Hmph!
A false prophet...
You'll be a snack for the great Lavos!
Schala
Mother, please stop!
This power can only end in ruin!
Zeal
Get away from there, Schala!
The almighty life force of Lavos lives in all of us...
You are a part of it!
You cannot change fate now!
Oppose me, and I will destroy you also!
Schala
Heeelp!
Queen
Come Prophet, feel the power of Lavos!
Magus
Ungh!
Aaah!
My powers are being drained!
Unghh....
I won't... be beaten!
I survived the darkness to defeat you, Lavos!
Take this, Lavos!
Aaaugh!
* Magus attacks the beast
Magus
Wh, what..?
It doesn't work?!
Aaughhh!!
Queen
Foolish one!
Your measly power can't touch Lavos!
This is from me to you!
You shall enjoy eternal life...
as a part of Lavos!
Uwa, ha,ha,ha...!
* Crono gets up
Lucca
A...are you all right?
At this rate we'll all... Uooo!
Frog
Magus!
Thou art mine to defeat!
Queen
Mwa, ha, ha...
See the power of Lavos and feel his wrath!
* Crono starts casting a spell or something
Lucca
Stop, Crono!
Frog
Desist Crono!!
Crono?!
Crono!
Magus
I can't beat him.
Lavos...!
Lucca
Crono!
There was nothing I could do!
Frog
Argh!
We must plan our escpae! The Palace trumbles!
Schala
The last of my pendant's power will send you to safety.
Schala
I know you can't forgive her but...
please don't hate mother, or our kingdom.
I'm so sorry!
Now, off you go!
Magus
......!
Schala
......
* Lavos awakens and destroys Zeal
The Tidal Wave comes and changes the surface of the world forever...
Lucca
Hold it, Crono!
Crono..!
Frog
N...noooooo!
Crono..., Crono...!
Lucca
Crono!
Elder
Um!
You're awake!
You were delirious.
Lucca
Crono!!
Where's Crono?
Elder
We found no one else...
Lucca
So it wasn't a dream...
Frog
Be this the Erathbound village?
Elder
This island was the only refuge left, after the Ocean Palace disaster.
Lucca
This is so depressing.
No era is safe, and there isn't much of a future to look forward to.
Frog
Whither hath old man Melchior gone?
Elder
When the disaster struck, an eerie, black portal materialized. Melchior tried
to save Janus, but he was also dragged in.
Frog
A "black portal"?
A GATE!!!
Lucca
...
What about Schala?
Elder
I don't know.
No one has seen her since.
Frog
Epoch!
What fate has befallen it?
Elder
Your ship is quite sturdy and safe.
It's almost as if it followed you here...
Oh, this must be yours.
Lucca
Marle's pendant...
the one that Crono kept for her.
Elder
It was at your side, like a guardian...
Lucca
Crono...
Elder
Take all the time you need to rest. I will be in the commons.
( At the commons )
Elder
All rested up?
Soldier
Bow, and pay homeage to our new liege, King Dalton!
* Dalton appears ( :P )
Dalton
You there?
What's wrong?!
You're lucky to be alive!
The old crone and the pesky Gurus are gone.
I now rename Zeal, the Kingdom of Dalton!
YOU! You're alive?
Ah! That vehicle outside must be yours!
It's just like the one Belthasar was building...
I've decided you don't deserve such a splendid toy!
Henceforth it shall be my personal chariot!
Lucca
You've got to be joking!
Dalton
You'll have to come with me!
You might start a rebellion or something!
And now, as a token of my esteem for you...
...take this!
What?
Grrr.
Ha!
How's this?!
* He shoots the party.
Mwa,ha,ha!
Enjoy a little taste of my true power!

Frog
What?
We cn get up there...
Guard
Serves'em right.
Without weapons they're powerless.
Ayla
What we do, Lucca?
* Act sick
Ayla
Ayla healthy!
Lucca want sick, then sick.
Ayla
Uooo...!
Ayla...hurt bad!
Guard
What's wrong?
* Ayla kills him
Ayla
......
Ayla don't like lie...
* After the battle against GolemBoss
Dalton
It's complete!
I've done it!
See these beautiful wings!
Now THIS is a King's throne.
I now name it...
The Aero-Dalton imperial!
And THEY're gonna be my first victims!
Aero-Dalton imperial, engage!
* CT music starts playing
Dalton
No, no,no.no...!
Stop the music!
* Music changes
Dalton
Ha!
There we go!
Ready for takeoff!
The Aero-Dalton imperial!
We have lift-off, Houston!
Frog
What in the...!
Ayla
Epoch fly...?
Lucca
It's flying?!
Dalton
It's not Epoch!
It's the Aero-Dalton Imperial!
Mwa, ha, haha!!
You are excess baggage!
Make like the wind and blow outta here...!
Mwa, ha, ha!
You are like insects to me!
Frog
Filth!
A lesson shall he learn this day!
Lucca
Dalton!
* They jump on Epoch (or Aero-Dalton Imperial :PPP )
Dalton
You, you...!
* In the middle of the battle
Dalton
Go GolemBoss!

!
* Dalton gets sucked in a big black hole, and nobody will miss him
Lucca
Is Epoch okay?
Frog
That grounding thief!
Ayla
Epoch, okay?
Lucca
More importantly, did he change the controls?
Frog
I am at a loss!
( something happens too fast )
* Blackbird is destroyed
People at the Commons
Yea!
Justice!
Dalton got what he deserved!
Elder
Whoa!
That shit can fly!
( Back on Epoch )
Lucca
Phew, now I get it!
Frog
Fantastic!
We are actually in his debt!
Ayla
Epoch in good shape!
Epoch...become bird!!!
Lucca
It needed a remodel anyway!

Magus
So, it's you...
Frog
Magus!
* They draw weapons
Magus
Behold.
Everything's at the bottom of the sea.
Gone is the magical kingdom of Zeal, and all the dreams and ambitions of its
people.
I once lived there...
But I was another person then....
Magus's flashback
(Zeal's room in the Ocean Palace )
Gaspar
Hmm..!
A dimensional warp!
Belthasar
This power is beyond human control!
Melchior
No...!
We'll be dragged into the warp!
Janus
SCHALA!!
Schala
No Janus!!
Stay away!
Janus
B, but!?
Melchior
It's a..!!
Gaspar
A Timegate!?
Belthasar
No!!
Janus
S, Schalaaaa!
Schala
Janus!!
* Lavos roars
* Gurus and Janus fall into timegates
* Melchior falls out in Medina village.
* Belthasar falls out in Bangar Dome
* Gaspar falls out somewhere in the abyss
Guru Gaspar
Th, this is...
Hey.
Nothing here.
This must be...
The End of Time...
* Janus falls out in Truce Canyon
Frog
So!
Thou art...
thou art that filthy urchin!
Magus
...
Ever since Lavos's time portal stranded me in the Middle Ages...
I have waited to even this score...
You interrupted me just when I had summoned Lavos to my castle...
How ironic that, having been drawn into yet another portal, I would end up
in this age.
Being from the future, my knowledge of the past enabled me to convince the
Queen that I was
a mighty oracle.
But no history book could have ever prepared me for what happened here.
Unimaginable is the power of Lavos.
Anyone who dares to oppose it... meets certain doom.
At this rate, you too, will meet a hideous fate. Just like that poor fool,
Crono!
Frog
...!
You dare to insult him?
Magus
He's history!
Play with fire and you get burned.
Frog
Magus!
Hold thy tongue!
Magus
You wish to fight me?
*** If you choose yes
Frog
Stand back.
Magus
...
I never imagined we would settle our score in this dusty old era.
Come, let us finish this charade!
* After the battle
Frog
Cyrus, I hath avanged thee!
Magus
Defeat me, and you will break the curse on Frog.
If... you want...
to bring Crono back...
find Gaspar, th... the Guru of Time...
* Magus dies
*** If you choose No
Frog
...
Vanquishing thee will neither return Crono nor Cyrus.
Magus
...
Wait.
I'll come with you.
Frog
Treachery!
Magus
You know, there just might be a way to bring him back.
Frog
Nonsense...!?
Magus
Gaspar, the Guru of Time knows how to restore lost or misplaced time streams...
* Magus joins the party.
CHAPTER 14
THE TIME EGG
--
( End of Time )
Old Man
Hey, where'sthat healthy kid with the radical haircut?
...
This is terrible news...
I have nothing to give you but this song.
It's called...
"Memories of Crono" (en.: of course, they had to use that lame Marle's
theme. *grin* )
I wish I could tend a hand...
Magus
Only the Guru of Time can help us now...
Old Man
Hey, where have you been?
So that's your story...
And just LOOK at you now...
You've become quite formidable!
Magus
Heh?...
Old Man
The Guru of Time, eh...?
Heard of him, of course, but what do you want with him?
Frog
We've heard he might be the one to bring our Crono back...
Old Man
To bring back the loved ones...
It's what everyone wants...
Crono must be proud...
to have friends like you...
Hey.
Here. Take this with you.
Ayla
Egg!hungry, want eat!
Old Man
Let us call that the Chrono Trigger.
It is pure potential.
By unleashing a specific course of event, it can have a powerful effect on
time.
Ask the one who made the Epoch, your Wings of Time, how to hatch it...
Like any egg, it represents a possibility...
It may or may not... hatch.
But the Chrono Trigger gives you the potential to get your friend back...
The egg will have an effect equal to the effort you put in your search.
No more, and no less.
Don't forget that.
As long as you keep Crono on your heart. the day you are dreaming of shall
arrive...
Magus
I get it... it's you, isn't it...?
Frog
Wh...what?
So.....
Thee art Gaspar, the Guru of Time!
Old Man
Um... well...
I believe that's what they used to call me...
...ages ago...
(At Keeper's Dome)
Belthasar
On "Death Peak" you will find the power to restore life.
But to activate this power, the deceased must be important to the space-time
continuum.
And you MUST have a clone identical to that person. Only then, can a Chrono
Trigger work its magic...
Need a clone?
The magician, Nolstein Bekkler could whipe one in the wink of an age.
Bekkler loves festivals. Find a festival, and there, too, you shall find bekkler!
* After getting the clone
Belthasar
Enough.
The time has come for you to attempt the Death Peak. It's the only chance
you have of reviving your friend.
The last program I've implanted in this creature's memory bank will help you
up the mountain.
Stay back.
* 3 dolls appear
Executing program!
The 3 entities you saw will help you climb Death Peak.
This ends my message.
Now I must ask you for a favor. This creature has executed its program. Please
let him sleep.
The switch is on his stomach.
( At the top of Death Peak )
Marle
So, this is the summit of Death Peak!
All who fear the night and stand against the darkness... Please give us strength!
Ayla
Crono!
Marle
The pendant's reacting!
It, it shattered!!
But...
We've come so far!
Ayla
No sadness!
Ayla lonely too!
Sad Crono not come back.
Marle
Please answer me!
Don't leave me!!!
Crono--!!
* They're once again teleported to Ocean Palace, just before the destruction.
Magus
A time freeze...
I never thought it's possible.
Marle
Crono...!
Ayla
Only us move?
Marle
We'll just exchange the Clone for Crono.
Crono?
It's Crono...!
Crono?!
You're alive!!!!
Ayla
Hurry!
We take Crono!
Magus
Save the helos for later.
We've got work to do.
......
(Back on Death Peak)
Marle
Crono!
Welcome back Crono!!
Ayla
Crono back!!
Crono okay?
Marle
We...
We knew this day would come.
* She hugs Crono :)
You musn't...
You can't do that ever again!
While you were away...
A lot of things happened.
First, we... and then...
And after that we..., but Crono!
Are you even listening?!
There's so much you have to know.
(At the End of Time)
Old Man
So!
Looks like you were successful!
No, don't thank me. I didn't do a thing. I just gave you a place to begin.
If you really want to thank me, make me a member of your team!
By the way, the Wings of Time has come looking for you.
It seems to have a heart and mind of its own...
You wish to fight Lavos, correct?
Many paths lay open to you.
You may use that bucket. Or fly the Wings of Time to the day of Lavos.
Or there's Black Omen, which floats in the sky above your world.
Lavos is somehow connected with it.
It's up to you to decide when and where to fight Lavos.
By now you must realize you are the only ones who stand a chance against him...
However, you will not be alone. I have had vague glimpses of events that will
empower you...
In the Middle Ages, a woman's sheer determination brings a forest back to
life...
A fugutive in the middle ages, Ozzie, mantains an evil hideout...
There's a task to be done in the future, where machinery originated.
And there's a very special stone that can shine its light on each generation,
from the distant past to the far
future.
There's a ghost of a lofty knight, slain by Magus in the Middle Ages, who
haunts the present...
There's an object in the Middle Ages that sparkles like a rainbow...
One of you is close to someone who needs help... Find this person...fast.
Just as you touch the lives of every life form you meet, so, too, will their
energy strenghten you.
Fail to live up your potential, and you will never win...
I am sorry that I must simply witness the coming spectacle from my ventage
point here...
CHAPTER 15
THE FATED HOUR
All Time Periods
*** Ozzie's Fort
Ozzie
Come on in!
This is the Great Ozzie's place.
What the...!
Whoa!!
You...you're the great Magus!
Magus
You're doing well, Ozzie!
Ozzie
The nerve!
Deserting your fellow mystics to serve those humans!
You're a traitor! You're not our king!
Why did you desert us?
You pesky, low down, good for nothings!
Ooh!
I'll have you begging for mercy!
Flea!
* Flea appears
Flea
You sent for me?
Well, if it isn't Sir Magus.
WWho'd you bribe to get in here?
Traitors like you deserve a beating!
Oh great Ozzie, stand back, and let ME take care of these cretins.
Ozzie
I'm counting on you, Flea!
Flea
get ready for a SLAPPING good time... get it?!
* After the fight
Flea
OH!
Just you wait!
We'll teach you a lesson!
* Later in the castle
Ozzie
Howdy!
You're nothing but common thieves!
Anyone who tries to steal my treasure is looking for a VERY cruel death!
And away we go!
Oz...
Ozzie's in a pickle!
Outta here!
* Later
You STILL haven't given up?
Well, how about a good trashing!
Slash!!
Slash
Yoooouuu rang?
Ozzie
Slash, don't let me down!
Slash
At first I really didn't want to slice and dice ya, but now it sounds kind
of fun!
Ready?
* After the fight
Slash
Ouch!
* At the end
Ozzie
Heh heh. Not so fast, friends. I'm not going to make it that easy for you.
Ozzie Pants!
Flea
Flea Vest!
Slash
Slasher 2!
Ozzie
These unique items make us INVINCIBLE!
* After the battle
Ozzie
What in the...!
Magus!
You lied to me when you said you wanted to create a world of evil!
You used me!
Magus
Oh, how dreadful.
Say, can you hear that?
It's the sound of the Reaper...
Ozzie
I can't lose!
What would become of my Mystics?
I MUST win!
* Cat arrives and presses the "Evil Red Button"
Ozzie
N...no! Not THAT switch!!
* He falls
Robo
What was he trying to accomplish?
*** In Giant's Claw (600AD)
Robo
Looks like Reptites' castle...
Magus
A prehistoric castle?
Robo
This must've been pushed underground when Lavos fell on earth.
* At the end of Giant's Claw
Robo
The Rainbow Shell.
Magus
Rather drab, isn't it?
Robo
It weights a ton!
We must get help from Guardia Castle.
* At Guardia Castle
King
Hello!
You're always welcome here!
What can I do for you?
Robo
We would like to ask a favor...
King
I get it. You want me to keep that huge shell safe here until the next century,
right?
Leene
I ask for the sake of Magus (en.: roflol )
Please carry out their request.
King
Done!
I shall obtain the shell and store it in the castle, as a national treasure.
Knight Captain!
Knight Captain
Yes, Majesty!
King
Go and obtain the Rainbow Shell, and bring it back in one piece!
Knight Captain
At once, Sire!
Robo
Thank you very much!

Princess Nadia!
Chancellor
I've been worried, Princess!
I understand your pain.
But the king only really cares about his realm...
Yes, even when your mother, Queen Aliza passed away, he worked all day!
Marle
No one could do that! It's inhuman!
Chancellor
Oh, child, it's ancient history now...
Marle
Tell me more!
Chancellor
This may be difficult...
Well, Queen Aliza's condition suddenlt changed for the worst.
She desperately wanted to see the king one last time, but he couldn't find
the time to drop by...
Said he had some work to do...
But knowing nothing about death, you waited faithfully by your mother's side...
Aliza passed away in sorrow...
It's as the king indirectly killed her...Such a shame...
Marle
WHAT..!!
Father KILLED?... MY MOTHER...?!!
Chancellor
But what do I know!
There are reasons for everything, right dear?
Now... so glad to see you back again. Please go and visit the king,
(At the Court's door )
Guard
No one is allowed.
Marle
Let me through!!
( The Trial )
Chancellor
Had any of you heard of the "Rainbow Shell"?
I too, had no idea until I found this...
It's an ancestral will. It says "Unveil the Rainbow Shell to the people
at Millenial Fair."
King
What are you talking about?!
We have no family heirlooms here!
Chancellor
So this is a forgery?
Why does the defendant deny the people a glimpse of the "Rainbow Shell"?
Becouse he no longer HAS it!!
He sold the heirloom for cash! Witness, please!
Wh, what is it Nadia?
We are conducting a trial here.
Marle
Father!
King
Nadia! The chancellor is trying to frame me!
Chancellor
He hurls insults! Confirm your innocence with proof!
Marle
Proof?
Chancellor
Yes. If he hasn't sold the heirloom, it should be in the castle.
Show me the Rainbow Shell, and I'll accept his innocence, heh, heh...
King
Chancellor!
Whaty kind of treachery is this?!
Chancellor
Remove them!
* Soldiers throw Marle out
Guard
No entry allowed!
Marle
Le me through!!
Guard
Princess, not even you may enter.
Robo
The Rainbow Shell will prove the king's innocence.
Marle
What ARE you saying?!
It's a lie!
There IS no heirloom!
Robo
We altered history in 600AD!
The Rainbow Shell should be here in the castle.
Marle
Aha! The Rainbow Shell we gave to my ancestor 400 years ago is still here.
It's probobly in the basement!
( Monsters in the basement )
Dumb
The boss is itching to avenge the grudge that's been in the family for 13
generations! Gee hee!
Dumber
He's gonna frame the king! Go haw!
Marle
So there IS a plot! Let's hurry!
( At the Court )
Merchant
I confess. I bought it from the King. He said he needed the cash.
King
Liar!! I've never even seen you before!
Judge
Order in the court!
Merchant (to the Chancellor)
Heh, heh. Was I convincing?
Chancellor
Perfect!
( In the basement )
Marle
The Rainbow Shell!!
Robo
There is a letter?
Marle
To Marle...?
" Dearest Marle, I know things are tough between you and your father.
But nothing can break your bond of blood. Neither words of anger, nor great
distances.
Someday, when you have children, you will understand.
The special bond is a part of a family tree which links us together.
- Queen Guardia XXI, Leene. "
Robo
Although I have no emotions, there is something warm and cozy about this letter.
Marle
Father!
Hang in there, we're coming!
* At the Court
Judge
Members of the jury...
If he is guilty, stand to the left.
If innocent, stand to the right.
Member 1
Guilty.
* In front of the Court
Guard
Princess, not even you may enter.
Marle
You won'r reconsider?
Soldier
No, Princess.
Marle
There is one way...
It's a bit rough, but just follow me!
( The Trial )
Judge
The verdict is in!
Guilty!!!
Chancellor
The Guardia line ends here.
The domain shall be mine!
Take him away!
( )
Wait!!!
Chancellor
Who is it?!
Marle
FATHER!!!
King
Nadia!
Chancellor
Princess! Control yourself!
You're too late! The King's been found guilty.
Even kings are subject to our laws.
Marle
No, this was a setup!
Chancellor
Nonsense! The King's a crook!
Marle
But the treasure is right here!
Chancellor
IMPOSSIBLE!
Marle
Your little scheme is over, Chancellor!
Chancellor
Grrr... I mean....uh...
Marle
Huh?
Chancellor
Hee hee hee!
It's not the plot you think!
I'm here to avenge my ancestors!
Super, ultra, presto, TRANSFORM-0!!!!!!!!!!
* He turns into Yakra XIII
* After the battle
Marle
Father... I...
King
No, don't say it.
I was wrong to be so stubborn.
Marle
No, I didn't even think about how youfelt.
Um...
I know it it in my heart, but the words just come out wrong.
King
I too, have that problem.
I thought you left me, but realized that it was I, who abandoned you.
Marle
But I'm here now.
We'll talk about everything that's happened. About Crono, my mother, and...
King
Your mother...
How sad! It has taken me so long to understand what Aliza meant with her last
words.
" Someday when Nadia grows up, she will bring her beloved to meet you.
Welcome him warmly.
It will be the day you remember forever."
Marle
You... heard her last words?
King
Of course!
You were so young!
You ran around saying "Daddy, it's fun having all my favorite people
here!"
Seeing you so happy, she left us quite peacefully.
Marle
So that's how it was...
King
Yes, why?
Marle
I used to call you "Daddy?"
King
You did.
Marle
I'm sorry... Daddy.
I'm really sorry for doubting you.
King
I'll let you exist the castle, BUT!
...you be careful, now.
Take care of her!
Robo
You can count on us!
Melchior
It's my turn, now...
Marle
Melchior!
Melchior
Can't let you run the whole show. Let me make some weapons from the Rainbow
Shell!
Finally time for me to do somethin'. Watch and learn!

Welcome Home, Prometheus.
Robo
... ...
Atropos...?
Atropos
Yes, it's been a while Prometheus.
You can stop pretending now and join us.
Magus
......
Atropos
Mwa, ha..
Unlike the other R-series, Prometheus had a special task.
To live with humans and study them as species...
Magus
I see...
Atropos
Tell them, Prometheus...
Robo
......
Atropos
Now step back Prometheus.
We'll get rid of these humans, then go see Mother.
Magus
Hmph!
We're leaving!
Atropos
What are you doing Prometheus?
Robo
I won't allow you to hurt them!
Atropos
......
You are indeed defective.
They have tempered with you.
I'll destroy them, then fix you!
Robo
Atropos... You've changed.
Atropos
Indeed, Mother remade me to eliminate humans more effficiently!
Step back, Prometheus!
Robo
My name is Robo.
Atropos
Promotheus!!

Wait!
Stand back and leave this to me.

Please... Take care... of it...
Good... bye... Pro... metheus...
( Mother Brain )
Listen well, humans.
Lavos's children will one day have to leave to seek new planets, and prey.
This world COULD sustain them... if humans were not around...
We robots will create a new order...
A nation of steel, and pure logic.
A true paradise!
Our "species" will replace you...
So stop your foolish struggle, and succumb to the sleep of eternity...
You did well to come this far.
I am the Mother Brain of the R-Y series factory.
Come Promotheus, you must once again join us.
I'll reset your circuitry and erase your memories.
Then we'll dispose of these filthy humans.
Robo
......
I'm sorry but...
I cannot afford to lose anything else...
Not my precious memories, nor my irreplaceable friends.
Mother Brain
You would betray ME, to stay with those humans?
You would turn against the family of robots?
Robo
Humans have taught me much.
Crono, Marle, Lucca, Frog, and Ayla...
I will not betray my friends.
Mother Brain
Ho...!
Fu, hu, hu...
This is rich!
Don't make me laugh!
YOU, have emotions?
I'll show you just how "human" you've become!

*** The Black Omen
Zeal
Fools!
Haven't you learned your lesson?!
We are immortal!
We shall live forever with Lavos, who devours this planet even as he sleeps.
Within 999 years he'll become the ruler of this world.
The Black Dream (en.: Ok, I know it's Omen in the American version, but that
translation just pisses me
off!!! Black Omen just doesn't make sense, and it is "Dream" in
the Japanese version ) is a path which
leads to Lavos. It is a shrine which provides us with limitless power.
As long as the mighty one reigns, your dreams are hopeless!
You should sacrifice yourself to the mighty Lavos!
HAAhahahahaha!
( In the center of the Black Dream )
Queen Zeal
Behold, my pretties!
Destiny, in its most brutal form.
All the dreams that might have been.
All the happiness, and sorrow, you might have experienced!
Gone forever!!!
For you there will be no tomorrow!
The Dark Omen transcends time and space, waiting for Lavos to awaken!
Destiny has led you here.
And here you shall rest forever, unless you can defeat me, and smash the Omen!
Come, dear friends.
Perhaps I can persuade Lavos to share his dreams with you!
Did I say dreams?
I meant his eternal nightmare!
* After the 1st battle
Zeal
Argh!
My powers don't seem to work here!
Wait! I'll simply toss you into the Mammon Machine!
You'll be one with the Omen, Lavos... and me!
* After the battle with Mammon Machine
Queen Zeal
You cretins...
I plan to live with Lavos, and control the universe forever.
You will not get in my way!
Magus
Idiots...
Nothing can live forever.
Zeal...
A pitiful woman, duped by Lavos.
I, myself, will bring an end to all of this!
Zeal
Prophet! You are doomed.
I haven't forgotten what you did at the Ocean Palace.
You will now forfeit your life.
* After the 2nd battle
Zeal
How dare you insects come after ME!
Oh almighty Lavos, lend me your power!
Mwa, ha, ha...
At last, Lavos awakens!
Compared with him, you are like germs.
But, I... I shall obtain immortality!
* Lavos awakens, and Black Dream is destroyed
* After the 1st battle with Lavos
Lucca
It's finally over...
Marle
But THIS could've done him in...!
Magus
We'll get to the bottom of this, Lavos...
Marle
We're in pretty deep...
Lucca
We're okay... right?
Magus
... No turning back now.
CHAPTER 16
THE FINAL BATTLE
( Inside of Lavos )
Magus
Finally...
You have met your match, Lavos...
Frog
Cyrus, this be our finest battle...
Ayla
Ayla not give up!!
* After the 2nd battle against Lavos
Magus
So... since the dawn of time, it has slept underground, controlling evolution
on this world for its
own purpose...
Frog
It... is too much to bear... We have been reared like animals...!
Our lives had been for naught...
Ayla
Me no run!
Ayla no run away!
Worse than losing!!
Magus
We were created only to be harvested.
All people...
... and all living things...
......
It's over for you...
Your life ends here!
( The other party )
Lucca
Now I understand...
It lives on a planet, stealing away the most vital resources...
It combined the DNA it found here with its own, and gave birth to those creatures
up on Death Peak.
Eventually the young must migrate to other planets... to repeat the cycle...
Marle
Are you saying IT'S the reason we're all here?
Lucca
Grown like famr animals, waiting to be slaughtered...
All of our history...
our art and science...
All to meet the needs of that... beast...
Robo
Attack value is...
... off the scale!
It's shorting out of my sensors!
Lucca
Impossible...
You CAN'T expect to toy with an entire world and get away with it!
*** The Ending
King
We've been looking for you, Crono.
Where did you take my daughter?
Marle
Daddy, don't!
Crono hasn't done a thing!
King
She says Crono has been a perfect gentleman, but...
What do you think, Chancellor?
Chancellor
Crono's deeds have had an enormous impact on the kingdom!
Marle
Chancellor, how could you?!
Please!
Just listen to me!
We had to...
King
... save the future, right?
Marle
Huh??
Doan
You saved the future, and gave us hope.
King Guardia
You fought Magus's troops, and brought peace to the kingdom in the year 600.
Kino
Crono beat reptites!
Marle
Wh, what's going on here?
Lucca!
You brought them here, didn't you?
King Guardia
Our kinsmen told me about your incredible mission.
Marle
Kinsmen?!
You mean these're my ancestors... and descendants?
King
Here I was fussing about my kingdom, and my daughter, and you were saving
past, present, and future!
King
Now, for a true victory parade!
Tonight we celebrate... you!
Now Marle, go out and enjoy the last night of the fair!
* Neat the Telepod
Lucca
Well evevryone, this is it.
Frog
Each to thine time.
Robo
The Gate has grown weak...
Lucca
We've got to say our goodbyes before the Gate closes.
Marle
You're all leaving?
Ayla
Crono was strong!
Marle too!
Ayla have fun!
Marle
You're my distant ancestor.
So you'd better have tough kids or I'll be trouble!
Kino
Heh heh!
No worry.
Ayla VERY strong.
Marle
Right!
Hey... What do you mean by that?
Ayla
Kino dummie!
We go now!
Frog
'Tis a feisty crowd!
But they are thine kin, and 'tis of consequence.
Queen Leene awaits.
Your Majesty, we too shall take our leave.
Marle
Mr. Frog...
Frog
...
Long farewells ne'er necessary.
Marle
Right! Besides, actions speak louder than words!
Lucca
Yeah. Don't these things end with the princesses kissing the frog?
Marle ( to Magus )
So.... you're going to search for Schala?
Robo
Lucca, I will miss you.
Marle
What's wrong Lucca?
Aren't you going to say goodbye to Robo?
Robo
She knows.
Marle
Knows... what?
Lucca
......
Robo was born in a bleak future.
When we defeated Lavos, we changed history.
Robo... may not exist in the future.
Robo
Ha ha.
Please relax.
The new future has a place for me!
Lucca
Darn it, Robo!
Don't pretend you don't care when you're really sad!
It just makes things worse!
Robo
......
Lucca, you have taught me these emotions.
Thank you.
Marle
Tears don't become you, Lucca!
Robo'll be there in the new future!
Robo
Good...bye
Caution!
Oil has washed over my sight sensors.
Sight diminished...
Lucca
I thought Lavos made the gates...
But I guess I was wrong.
Marle
What do you mean?
Lucca
I think a greater force wanted us to experience those events.
Marle
Time travel... How exhausting!
Lucca
We should dismantle the Epoch.
Its job is finished.
* Crono's cat arrives
Mom
You naughty thing, come back here!
Look, Crono!
Your cat's ranning away becouse you haven't been feeding it!
hey, come back here!
* Mom enters the gate
Marle
Oh great!
Crono, that gate will never open again!
Lucca
Well it looks like we have no choice but to go after them!
Marle
Go after them?!
But the gate's...
Marle
Lucca, don't turn off your brain yet!
Lucca
I forgot!
We have a Time Machine!
Nya ha ha!
Soldier
Oh Princess, the King asks for your presence.
King
I'm so happy!
Now there's no reason for you to go away anymore.
I have a gift for you, to commemorate this day, Princess Nadia.
This is Nadia's Bell.
It will ring out across the land.
* They run away
Marle... where did you go?
Could someone please lend me a hand?
Marle
Daddy...
I hate to say this but...
I can't sit around doing nothing!
