Squaresoft/Back to the Future Prologue
By Fred Delles
After watching the three Back To The Future (BTTF) movies dozens of times, I thought that it would be cool if some of the Squaresoft characters and locations were represented with the stories from Back to the Future.
This story takes place thirty years after the destruction of Meteor, on October 23, 1997 A.J. (A.J. stands for After Jenova, about the time after Jenova destroyed the Ancients in FF7.) Cloud and Tifa marry, and have three children: Locke, Faris, and Crono. Crono ends up going back in time (again!) with Bugenhagen and Luccas invention, a modified time machine from the Tiny Bronco that can go back or forth to any era in time. Crono ends up thirty years in the past, during Clouds battle against Sephiroth, and accidentally screws up history. (Its a surprise; read to find out!) Can Crono get back to the future? Can he repair history in the past? Will Aeris have an actual part in this fanfic without being killed? Will there be a fourth Back To The Future movie? The answers are in this Final Fantasy / Chrono Trigger fanfic!
