A Promise to Fulfill

Summary:

After the murder of King Raybrandt, Sarada makes a promise to Monica to make sure that the castle doesn't fall to Emperor Griffon's army. For day 6 of Sarada week 2023.

Notes:

This Naruto and Dark Chronicle/Dark Cloud 2 crossover story that I wrote for day 6 of Sarada week 2023 is going to be what would happen if Sasuke and Sakura's daughter, Sarada Uchiha, had looked after the castle while Monica Raybrandt was traveling with Maximilian. So, I hope you guys love this short story and also, spoilers for the plot of Dark Cloud 2, even though it's an old school PlayStation 2 game released in 2003. Plus, I really needed to do something Dark Cloud related for last year's Sarada week, and also, the plot of this short story picks up immediately after Monica sees Gaspard standing over the lifeless corpse of her father, but before it cuts to Maximilian in Palm Brinks as well as the story being how Galen Agaris came to possess the Holy Daedalus Blade after 100% completing Heim Rada in Chapter 5 of Dark Chronicle: Conflict of the Past and Future.

Work Text:

A few days had passed since the sudden murder and the royal funeral of King Raybrandt at the hands of Gaspard, as Emperor Griffon's forces slowly moved in on the castle.

The two moons loomed in the night sky as Sarada Uchiha, who was the daughter of a guard that safeguarded the king eight-hundred years ago, looked at the castle worriedly before she heard a knock on the door.

Opening the door, Sarada was shocked to see Raybrandt's daughter, Monica, standing behind it, wearing traveling clothes as she noticed a sword and an armband on her.

"Monica! What brings you here?" Sarada asked, looking at the red haired princess. "I was worried about you."

"Sorry about that." Monica said, looking at the raven haired young woman. "But I need to talk to you about something serious."

Sarada looked at Monica with a confused look, not knowing that Jurak and Crest had their origin points erased.

"What is it?" She asked, concerned.

"Sarada, I need you to contact Galen Agaris at the Gundorada Workshop and look after the castle for me while I'm gone." Monica said seriously. "I'm going to stop Emperor Griffon from wiping out everything in this time, so I need you to get as many people as possible."

Knowing that this would be the last time that she would see her friend, Sarada nodded.

"You can count on me, Monica." She said, looking at the redhead princess. "I'll safeguard your castle like my ancestor did eight hundred years ago."

Monica smiled before she turned and left the house, a blue time gate appearing out of nowhere as a blue stone glowed brightly.

It soon dawned on Sarada that Monica had an Atlamillia on her, as the Uchiha woman knew that Griffon had one as well for some reason according to Elena.

"Thank you, Sarada…" Monica said before she left parts unknown.

After she watched her friend leave, Sarada went into the castle and looked around until she found the Holy Daedalus Blade and a picture of the king eight hundred years prior holding the sword in his hand. Shaking her head, she went back to her house with the sword, and, using her magic, sent the sword to Agaris.
