Finding Kaylie

[Frederic Bourgault-Christie]

Though it seems that most of the defenders at the Battle of Iruga and the Star of War remain, Kaylie does not. Her cell phone number is not in Black, Fred, Mario or Brian's directory. She has disappeared, and who knows to where...

Upon speaking with Gaspar Black has uncovered several paths to rescuing his mentor, but only after discovering that all of these paths lead to an even deadlier prison to breach.

Driven by a mixture of guilt, debt, and the desperate need for something he can immediately control lead Black to 65,000,000 AD in search of Belthasar whom he must free from a deathly Gigas to meet.

However he will not go un-aided as Gaspar has also told him of an ally of sorts that Mario will lend him...

OOG: Nice, epic formulation.

After you arrive, someone else falls down close to you. He says, "Ow, I love this part of this game but it's not so fun on the t-t-tailbone."

Black can see that the boy is young, thinnish but showing a little bit of a build, sort of nerdy looking. He has reddish-blond buzzcut hair, greenish-blue eyes, and a bit of a babyface. He seems to be more introspective and shy, obviously very smart.

"I'm Redfox. You must be... D-D-David?" He desperately tries to make eye contact but is failing.

An eyebrow raised in curiosity Black stands up and dusts himself off briefly before introducing himself.

"Yeah, I am...are you the ally I was told about?" he asks, taking a couple of looks around the area in hopes to make the scene more casual than a constant gaze would, maybe relieve some of this guy's nervousness.

"Ummmmm, I don't know. Who told you you'd be getting an ally? Shouldn't you be asking them?" Though the sentence unadorned sounds snarky, the kid is actually being quite sincere and low-key.

Though it feels warm, like the Cretaceous era should (even on another world), the sky above is darker than expected, and you feel cold spots in the air that are positively frosty. From what you understand about ice ages, in a few hundred thousand years one will have fully gripped this planet.

"65,000,000 BC, Chrono Trigger world", Redfox says. He then justifies it by saying, "Y'know, the new Captain N-N-Nintendo... he's gotta be up on his video games, right?"

Lo Pan says, "The trigrams tell me that the Gigas is hiding on a smallish continent to the northeast."

Hmnnh, that saves time. Thanks. Black will respond to Lo Pan before turning to Redfox.

"Captain Nintendo? I thought Fred was the only one gunning for something like that" Black will crack a slight smile in rememberance of wonderfully simpler times, then realize he didn't explain and add "A friend of mine...sort of"

<I didn't do it for you, boy! And your thanks are half-assed!>

Redfox says, "Really? Well, I was born in Video Game Land. Dr. Light told me that some person named Seena gave me to him when I was young. I don't remember much of that, though I remember her being really kind and telling me that I was really important to... someone, I don't remember. So I always wanted to be Captain Nintendo, and then he and Captain Sega told me that I was being groomed for it! It... it was pretty cool... But I dunno, I just never have really felt... happy. Like there's something missing i-i-n my h-h-heart. Anyways, thanks for taking an interest!"

The kid keeps talking: Apparently, when he's comfortable, he's a blabbermouth. "What do you do? I'm a weapon master. I have a zanpakuto in a daikatana form, a Cranium Basher, a Caliber-X, this awesome sword called a Long Tooth, a Death's Head Flail, a Mask of Death..." He lists all his equipment without compunction. "Oh, and I can fly, regenerate quickly, and have super strength and stuff!"

I assume you guys will go visit Ayla first?

Kaylie's found! Moved!
