In bed at night
there comes a time
when out must go the light..

When your head is filled with dreams
and your body lying unaware
now it seems the proper time
to beware!

LOOK OUT LOOK OUT!
A voice in the midnight hour howls
But too late ..too late is appears
...

You can see it can't you?
In the eyes of the child??
Look within them and you will see..
two figures cloaked in black
figures of the shadows
with eyes of white and dread.

"Chrono..it is time. Let us take her away." Neither one needed further words to speak, as the two figures of life and time stood over the now awakened young soul.

A party had run its course through the scene they stood in now. Bottles of rum and whiskey lay about in heaps and piles, but none lay more than around a certain bearded pirate as his loud snores echoed amongst his fortress of alcoholic bottles.

"Who-o are you...wait..YOU! You two are those keepers of time and ..and.." Her words could not finish coming from her mouth, it was as if fear had taken ahold of her tongue ...and only her eyes could speak the rest.
Nodding their heads the two keepers smiled grimly at the girl they stood before, their white eyes holding her trembling gaze.
"My dear..." Extending his pale hand, Tak spoke first. " It is your time to go and you know it to be your time, so do not struggle."

"Agreed, you don't want to make a scene like you did that night do you dear?" Chrono said speaking softly, seein her eyes widen in shock made him chuckle darkly. " Come now...that night you died..the night you were taken from that party you didn't even want to attend..by a man who had more than just murder on his mind." A dark shadow appeared in his empty eyes, his voice growing more and more ominous.

" NO! STOP!" The girl screamed aloud, to her suprise, no one woke from her loud voice breaking the silence of the still night. " Please..why now..tell me. What will taking me away do for you?" She chocked out hoping to stay in the world she loved so just for a moment longer. Time in the living world had raised her to be strong, cunning, and brave...yet, thanks to that one night where here whole world was shattered in a matter of moments..she could relay on neither of those things.

Both Tak and Chrono smiled at her words, and with them they bowed graciously.
"Dear child, it is not for our own gain that we do this...it is for the benefit of this entire world! You are now ready to pass on..to what awaits you...only time knows."
As their last words came to her ears, a black key was jammed into her soul body..and upon its hilt was a clock hung on a golden chain. " Its..so..co-cold.." She whispered..a stray tear fell from her eyes as they young girl looked around her once more to place she loved most, and as the key turned within her making a loud CLANK noise..she looked up and whispered.." Goodbye my dearest clan..my friends..goodbye Mitchell and Ren. May you find your peace. "
And like a tear shed from a bird in the sky above, she was gone in a shimmering cloud.

"That is that. The soul of Agent is now where it should be. Let us continue Tak." Chrono turned to his comrade, and as he nodded in return they both faded away into the shadows surrounding the Shadown Clan.
