Chrono was one of few people who knew of the impending Apocolypse, yet none he told would believe him, causing him to finally give up and leave before the world got any worse. As he set off on his journey, he decided to find others in search of a new place to call their own before everything went to Hell, yet he had no such luck.
The day it was announced that things were happening that couldn't be explained, Chrono got as far from civilization as he could, hoping that, in doing so, he'd be able to escape, or at least evade, the darkness that was soon to spread through the cities.
His hunch was correct, yet, after some time travelling alone in the arid wastes, he decided to leave his solitary life and seek companionship, as he knew it would be the only way he'd make it through this worsening world alive.
Coming upon a desolate town, he found that he wasn't the only one present in the desolation before him, walking towards the group as he removed his mask, he introduced himself with a smile.
What happened next is anyone's guess.
