((Reserved for Azure))
A figure garbed completely in a hooded, white robe that seemed to glow softly stood in the center of what used to be downtown Nightshade. His ageless eyes glanced around the area, and he sighed.
[glow=gray,2,300]"So many lives lost... so much destruction... if this is wished to be fixed, then she will show up. Master tells me she will soon..."[/glow] It stated sadly.
It glanced up at the clouded-over sky, which began to darken as snow showered down in the east. The figure didn't seem to breathe, for no clouds of mist exuded from it's mouth whenever it breathed. The hood shaded out everything above the being's mouth, which seemed to be slightly bearded, proving the being to be male. He kept clenching and unclenching his riht hand, as if trying to grab something that wasn't there...

Myrr, who was jumping across rooftops that were still left to stay on the move, and more importantly, keep warm, was thinking about her father.
'Is he alright? Did he beat the Aparoids already, or is he one of them now? And what of Armageddon? Is he destroyed, or is he still scheming?' She scowled as the thought of the now deceased demon entered her mind.
"Why? Why did that monster have to be so cold? To help cause such destruction? I only hope that those that died, died swiftly and painlessly... but how will the survivers cope? Little children have been left without mothers and fathers. Parents are in despair because their children were killed or assimilated. at least ninety percent of the survivors are homeless now... If only I could help..." she thought aloud.
...Something in her dragon genes sensed something was amiss. Not exactly evil, but she couldn't tell if this was exactly good either... Well, it can't hurt to investigate. And so, she flew towards the center of town, seeing a strange man, who fit the descirption of 'wise sorceror' almost to a 'T.'
"I wonder who that is," Myrr asked herself, diving down in the man's line of sight, before landing on her feet, posing in a non-hostile, but still wary stance. The half dragon waited, deciding to let the man speak first.

The man turned and smirked, bowing.
[glow=gray,2,300]"Ah, Myrr. I've been looking for you. I see you are also saddened by the heartless destruction of these poor people... but perhaps we can help them. Or, more specifically, you can help them."[/glow] He stated.
He stood back up, his mouth forming a scowl.
[glow=gray,2,300]"I am the Incarnation of Time, or, also known as Chronos. I am here because I've lost an important item. My Hourglass, the control of all time itself. It was stolen by the minion of an evil deity, who hoped to bring his master back. However, on the way, he was-"[/glow]
Chronos smirked under the hood as he continued,
[glow=gray,2,300]"-shot off-course. However, I lost track of my Hourglass after the avatar dropped it, and someone took it. For some reason, I can't sense it at the moment, or at all since that being took it. What I need you to do is find this item. In return, I will restore all innocent lives of those lost in this city. Will you perform this favor for me?"[/glow]

...This was unexpected... But good... Even though Solranous was more the fighter then she, the half dragon knew she could hold her ground in battle, besides, said dragon was unavailable at the moment. This could be... hard though...
"Alright, I'll find and return your Hourglass as fast as I can, but do you perhaps have any lead as to where I could start looking? As you know, the planet is a big place and, while time may mean nothing to you, it means something to me... even with that little, um, 'gift.' It'll help a lot, I'm sure."

Chronos smirked.
[glow=gray,2,300]"But of course. The being that stole my Hourglass is currently in the forest near here, attempting to use the item to solve a... 'problem' he's having. I believe you've met him before."[/glow]
Chronos aimed a finger at the mountains, then began pinpointing the location.
[glow=gray,2,300]"There. Just on the edge of the forestline."[/glow] He stated.
[glow=gray,2,300]"Now, I suggest you hurry, because he's about to activate it, whether he knows or not."[/glow]
((After you post here next, the thread will be temporarily closed, then when/if Myrr gets the Hourglass, we'll come back to this thread. Kapeesh?))

Myrr nodded in understanding.
"Thanks for the tip, I'll get it back for you." The half dragon turned and, using her long and powerful wings, bounded back into the air, making a B-line for the forest edge where Chronos had specified.

Chronos smirked as he stared into the sky.
[glow=gray,2,300]"So... you think I should?"[/glow] He asked the sky.
[glow=white,2,300]Yes, I think you should. They've done so much for the planet already; the least you could do is give them a home.[/glow] A deep, powerful voice responded.
Chronos shrugged, still smirking.
[glow=gray,2,300]"Whatever you say..."[/glow] He stated.
He folded his arms as he patiently waited for the half-dragon to return.
((Now we wait...))

Myrr touched down near Chronos after having retrieved the Hourglass from Daedalus. She shuddered as thoughts about what the daemon dragonkin would have done. She held the Hourglass out to Chronos.
"Here it is... Unfortunately, I've had some pretty bad relations with the freak who took it... he almost did 'something' to me that I'd rather not say." The half dragon shuddered again, still holding out the Hourglass.

Chronos nodded, taking the Hourglass.
[glow=gray,2,300]"I'm sorry about that. Thank you, by the way. Now, if you don't mind, I think we should get airborne."[/glow] He stated.
He levitated into the air and held up the Hourglass, willing it a deep red. The entire area shimmered for a second before the entire city began rebuilding itself! It was literally watching time reverse! The buildings sped up, until Chronos muttered,
[glow=gray,2,300]"Now for the final touches..."[/glow]
The entire area erupted into a bright flash, which lasted for about 3 minutes. When it finally dissapated, the entire city looked just like it did three months ago... the people were back, the power plant was untouched, and...
The abandoned district had returned, and a certain warehouse still had O'Malley's modifications.
[glow=gray,2,300]"The people remember nothing of what happened, or the fact most of them died. However, some of them may remember, but they're not to be worried about. I'm sure if they'd thank you."[/glow] He stated.
[glow=gray,2,300]"And by the way... it wasn't Shive who saved you, but a certain ebony droid. He's going through a very hard time right now, so if you could do him a favor: Thank him the next time you see him."[/glow] Chronos added.
He raised the Hourglass as he turned away, smiling at the half-dragon before he vanished in a burst of light.

"...It wasn't Shive? ...God... I hope he didn't take that personally... Oops..." She wasn't sure if she could look at the droid with out being embarressed...
She would go and thank him... but... not right now... She wouldn't be able to think straight to say the two words.
"Why me?" she asked before she flew away. She hoped O'Malley would show up so she didn't have to actually look for him... because if she actively searched for him, she wouldn't be able to stay calm-minded...
