Ansem grunted, pressing back on his staff when Riku pushed harder. He briefly recognized that Riku had gotten stronger since the last time that they had fought, but he didn't dwell on the realization. He needed to focus on how he could turn the battle in his favor again.
I was thinking that they would be evenly matched up to this point, but Smith would gain some power from Ansem's death, so then Roxas would be...
Ansem was surprised when he actually managed to stop Riku in his tracks, the man furrowing his eyebrows as he recovered from the shock of his Guardian being killed. He could still win this as long as he didn't make any stupid moves.
I am. xD Well...the final battle, really, since we're not going to focus on Roxas and Smith too much at this point. Right? Sounds good. x3
"Huh?!" Ansem cried, amazed that Riku could move with such speed and strength after the damage he had just taken. He lifted his staff to absorb the blow, though he felt as if it wouldn't help much at all against the strength of the Keyblade Master.
It's not bad. :3 Not nearly as fun as Smith, though.
The Guardian's eyes widened, a loud shriek of pain leaving the creature when he came in contact with Riku's blade. Guardian, come back! Ansem ordered, panicking for a split second. However, the creature didn't respond, fading out of existence because of the fatal attack.
I bet it is. x3
Ansem watched as the Guardian slashed at the shield, only to be denied access to Riku. Strong shield, he thought, frowning at the sight of it. He had lost his advantage over Riku, and now the fight would become more heated again, on both sides.
I agree. xD
Ansem tightened his grip on his staff again, staring at Riku as he got up off the ground. Guardian, attack! he thought, eyebrows furrowed in seriousness. He felt the Guardian come out from behind him, lunging at Riku once again.
Alrighty. =)
Ansem cried out, suddenly feeling Riku attack him with Dark Aura. He stumbled back a few steps, his grip on his staff loosening at the pain he felt. Without him asking, the dark Guardian abandoned Riku, moving behind his master and catching him before he could fall. The man turned around, glaring at the creature who had its hands on his back. Idiotic Heartless! he thought in anger. You left Riku!
Ultimately, it's up to you, since Riku is the one who's doing the killing. xD
Ansem looked to the Guardian, silently telling him his plans. Though the Heartless showed no signs of understanding, Ansem knew that the creature comprehended what he would do. He lifted his staff, preparing to stab Riku while he laid on the ground. In order to do that, though, he would have to force his Guardian to back off so he could kill Riku and not hit his ally.
The only idea that I have is that the Guardian is defeated, Ansem is surprised, and then Riku deals a fatal blow to Ansem.
Drive him into the ground, Ansem silently ordered the Guardian, his eyes meeting those of his Heartless ally. The creature released one of Riku's arms, at the same time pushing Riku down to the ground. He kept one of his giant fists on Riku's back, his eyes staying on the boy before he looked back up at his master.
Mmhmm. You have any ideas on how Ansem should die?
Ansem pulled back his staff and swung at Riku again, mentally ordering his Guardian to keep a tight hold on Riku. Not only would it give him the chance to attack, but Ansem was also feeling pleasure with causing the silver-haired teen pain.
None at all, except that once a character dies, they sorta evaporate into pyreflies (like FFX) and then the remnants float over to Smith and...
