Video Game: Kingdom Hearts SOS: The Road To Light

As Steel struck down a wyvern that had been giving him a particularly and pointlessly large amount of trouble for the last little while, he felt a surge of power within him. He smiled as the power grew outward into a dark aura: the conditions had been fulfilled, a new form had awakened. With a quick motion, he grabbed his cape and threw it off. This event in turn caused his aura to grow wider, into a large, semi-transparent black sphere which his strange blue scarf had taken to circling. He removed the keychain from his keyblade, leaving a white orb surrounded by black smoke to appear, which he placed in front of him. He considered it for only a moment; the keyblade, a power forged by the fires of ones own heart. As the majority of his remaining ensemble began to disintegrate, he reached up to grab his chin and pulled. His face seemingly came off in the form of a mask, leaving behind a faceless silhouette in Steel's place.

The shadow like creature was interesting in that it had a large heart shaped gap in the middle of it's chest, similar to certain forms of heartless. Unlike heartless, however, there was a large glowing orb of light suspended in the middle of the gap. The shadow that was obviously Steel dispersed the mask with a flick of his wrist; only to summon forth an entirely new one only moments later. He placed the mask on his face, causing the dark energy to rush back to him. His form became clear once more, but before any new traits could be determined, his miraculous cape flew back towards him as well. It wrapped itself in multiple patterns around his head, covering all but his one eye and the side of his mouth before ending in a small trail of cloth behind his head (Think DiZ's bandages, but blue with extra length).

Only his right gauntlet reformed, while his other arm had bandages wrapped around his hoodie sleeve, and a fingerless glove on his hand, revealing fur and a set of sharp claws. A similar thing transpired with his leg armor, though the covered leg was the left one. A sharp fang jutted up from his lower jaw and he opened his eye to reveal the blue iris was now accompanied by a strange golden pupil. He reached out in front of him and grabbed the orb from earlier, pulling it into two separate orbs. A keychain appeared on each, forming two keyblades; Umbrella and Llama head. He smiled his strange creepy smile, which could now be seen. "Let's teach these guys a lesson or two, huh?!" He shouted to his comrades, his partially visible mouth causing the fabric to move and stretch as he talked.

A dark smoke seemed circle him, lowering his enemies ability to detect him, and a new speed was felt coursing through his veins. With a sinister smile, he charged forward and unleashed a brutal assault of pure agility on the injured Behemoth.

Yes, I did indeed just find a way to make Steel creepier.

This battle was nearly over. One side had already been conquered and it's warriors had moved on. Now, another side was close to finishing, although they left the biggest heartless for last. In hindsight, that may have been a bad idea, but Ananta didn't care. She'd make sure she did her best and defeated each of the Behemoth's. She was tired and weak and her arm was killing her, but she was going to finish. She might rest after she finishes this side, but she sure as heck wasn't going to stop now. "If the others finish before us, I'll just fall over and go to sleep. This is getting stupid." she sighed. Where that mirror was going to take everyone, Ananta hoped it was a place she could rest and enjoy some rest and relaxation with friends. Maybe even try and reconcile with Karina, even if it's just her apologizing for what she'd done here. "I'll get her a balloon and maybe some food." she said, dodging a Wyvern's talons. "I hope she likes food just as much as I do." she said, nodding to herself. Ananta jumped over this Wyvern and stabbed her keyblade into it's head as she flew over it's head. Her keyblade tore a line down it's back and caused it to split in two, disappearing in a smoke that choked Ananta.

"But...then what? I'm just way too weak to compare to Karina." Ananta said, sighing and staring at the keyblade in her hands. "I haven't even been able to close a keyhole yet. I've always been left out while newer people were able to close one easily. What am I missing?" she asked herself, tears forming in her eyes. She coughed a little, seeing a dark smoke come out of her mouth. It was the same color as the smoke the Wyvern gave off earlier. Another Wyvern came by and slammed into Ananta, knocking the air out of her. The rest of the dark smoke emerged from her lungs as she hit the ground. The heartless loomed over Ananta, opening it's mouth as it leaned in closer. Ananta was sure it'd eat her if she hadn't placed her hands on the Wyvern and cast a Blizzard spell. It froze solid, only shattering when another Wyvern had slammed into it.

Ananta sat up and watched this Wyvern float there aimlessly. It looked like it hadn't noticed her yet. As she stood there, getting ready to attack, the same thoughts from before appeared in her mind. 'Keyholes...what are they? I don't remember getting told why we were sealing them...' she thought, guarding against an attack. She swung her keyblade and managed to defeat the Wyvern. It seems that it was weakened from hitting the ice covered Wyvern. 'Where do these keyholes even lead? What doors do they lock and unlock...?' Ananta continued to think, parrying an attack from a fourth Wyvern. It's life ended before she could even blink. A frown stuck to Ananta as she stood there and rested for the time being.

"I don't know much at all. I'm totally in the dark here, not even Master Yen Sid told me anything. He was always too busy with somebody else. I never had a chance to ask him things." Ananta said, crossing her arms. "And...it's way too hard to just ask somebody else in our group...most of them keep to themselves anyway. Making friends is hard when most of them are depressed about one thing or another." Ananta nodded to herself. "Guess I'll have to ask...somebody somehow..."

Beuce frowned as Karina ran off on her own. She was in no danger of being defeated, even on her own, but...She was alone. Not just as far as the fight went. She was alone at heart. He could tell that she was ashamed of her scars. He didn't know anything about her past, but whatever it was, it wasn't pretty. She'd had a pretty rough life, that much he knew. Heh, maybe there was more in common between them than he originally thought. If he approached her now, there was a likely hood that she wouldn't be able to focus on the task at hand. If that happened, she could get seriously injured. Now wasn't the time to talk to her. He'd be sure and do it later, but for the moment, he had other friends in need of help too. Namely, Stratos. This behemoth seemed to be Bipedal, and could use its hands. Well...That was a new one. What's next, a behemoth riding a unicycle? ...Oh dear god he hoped that wasn't the case. If it was like this...flaming skeleton behemoth on a motor unicycle and it could like make you see all the derpyness of your life.by looking into its eyes...*shudder* That would be awful. Beuce would never get out of that.

All he could do was pray to whatever god the KH universe possessed and hope that wasn't the next behemoth. Oh, right. Stratos, roflstomped. That's a thing. After letting Stratos get kicked around a bit while he had an inner monologue about ghost rider behemoths, Beuce went into action. Dashing forward and rolling to the side, avoiding a swipe of claws at him, he slashed up at the behemoth's arm with his rather large sword. This one was intelligent enough to avoid his attack to some extend, so it wasn't as deep it could have been. "You alright? Can't have my apprentice dying on me now." He said jokingly before helping him onto his feet. keeping up the offensive, Beuce attacked the behemoth several times using his extended combo from being a soldier. First a downward slash, then a horizontal cut upward, followed by a punch, then a heavy roundhouse kick, knocking it back. The second it was stumbled, he dashed behind it, cutting it along the way, then spun around into a heavy combo finishing swing. The behemoth roared with anger as it was attacked ferociously, swiping and kicking at its assailant, to no avail. Beuce performed the most ridiculously overpowered maneuver ever to grace the presence of the abilities list. Dodge roll. Rolling out of the way, Beuce was safe from harm as there was evidently a frame where he was totally invulnerable to any sort of damage during rolling.

Staring down the now injured behemoth from a fair distance away, he did something that seemed to surprise even the creature in question. He performed a gank. And by gank i mean full frontal Leroy Jenkins assault. He charged forward at maximum speed, and crash tackled the thing to the ground. The two struggled and squirmed, trying to get the other one into a submissive position. "Stratos, Now's your chance! Lay into it!" He called out as he pinned the monster to the ground with a fair bit of effort. It took every bit of the incredible strength the soldier job had given him, but for at least a moment, he was actually able to wrestle a behemoth onto the ground. He underestimated his own strength for a moment there. Although, for the moment restrain it was all he could do. The damage was riding on Stratos.

Stratos was shaking where he stood as Larry the Pedalmoth had managed to pull itself back up from whatever sort of damage he had just been afflicted. It wasn't Stratos shaking in fear, no, it was Stratos shaking because god damn he felt sore everywhere right now. He quickly cast cure on himself as many times as his current mp would allow him, and he had managed to recollect himself. Sure, he was still pretty beaten up and bruised from this behemoth thus far, but he could actually steady himself now. As the behemoth charged at him, he quickly got on his keyglider and flew away as the behemoth hopped into the air and brought its fist downward. As the fist crashed into the ground, the behemoth continued to snarl at Stratos, and then quickly charged back at the flying keyblade rider. He needed to keep his cool here and just stall the thing out. At this rate he knew that there was no way he'd be able to keep it up forever. All that was needed for the behemoth to get kicked down, and Stratos to be able to use any form of combative measure against it.

However, the behemoth was no longer having any of this game of cat and mouse with the young keyblade wielder. He leaped into the air, bringing down its paw on the flying keyblade wielder. He was swatted out of the sky and was pushed down into the ground, only to see the behemoth coming back at him again. Stratos started pulling himself out, only to see that the behemoth had closed the distance between them rather quickly. Stratos saw that there was nothing else for him to do, and then he got really lucky. Beuce had appeared and said something about not letting his apprentice die. Stratos watched as the behemoth and Beuce had begun their own fight. That new found strength of his was really something else. Beuce was able to handle the thing with ease, at least compared to what Stratos could do. As he watched the older man slash through the behemoth with his sword, he then went to go on and actually grapple with the behemoth. Stratos was in shock an awe as he saw the raw display of strength from his friend. It then dawned on Stratos again, the clear difference in power between him and the others, however now he was fine with it. Because now he was able to support someone else in this fight.

He saluted Beuce as he told him to go and do some more damage and said, "got it boss." Stratos then took his iaido stance as cherry blossoms fell from the sky. He opened his eyes to see that there was no place he could cut the behemoth to kill it at the moment, but he was still going to get in some damage. Using Zantetsuken to both damage and close the distance to the behemoth. After doing that, Stratos knew that he didn't have any MP to use just yet, and so he needed to build up some off of this heartless. He quickly started up a ground combo, only to then follow up with vorpal blitz right after. As the attack finished, Stratos was now airborne and so he initiated an air combo on the downed behemoth's horn. After that, he had generated enough MP to attack with magic once more. Looking at the snarling heartless, he had determined that it was doing to much of that, and so he cast mine square. There were no mines to be seen, however. So where were they? That question was soon answered as the behemoths head and throat seemed to spazz out and smoke came from its mouth.

Beuce was pleased with Stratos' execution of the opening he'd given him. God, for someone with no strength he sure loved spamming a physical attack that didn't even give much CG. The behemoth threw Beuce off of it finally, but was hit by a brave shot from the wielder. It seemed that it had had enough. Reaching up, it grabbed the horn from its head and tore it clean off, now using it as a blade. "uh...wow."

Glen, while everyone was having wardrobe changes, had been fighting off several large bodies. As each one leaped at him, he would dodge roll to the side and retaliate with a swift strike, only for his victim to spin around and block it with a rather large bulge. Their stomach, you perverts. Things weren't working out too well at this rate. With each attack being blocked, surely he would fall victim to fatigue. He had to do something desperate. Something miraculous. Something awesome.

Turning around, Glen found a brief opening that would give him ample time to make a badass transformation sequence. So, first step complete, now for the next bit. Grabbing his shirt, he threw it off, before proceeding to throw off any and all clothing on him with more skill than even the most accomplished streaker. Right as he got to his underwear, that too came off, but the disney gods that dislike male nudity decided that it was the right time to poop the party and ruin the fun, enveloping Glen in a bright light that acted as a temporary censor bar. He floated into the air, and immediately several runes began circulating around Glen. What they said, he had no idea, but it really added to the effect and that's what counted.

Once the light had receded and Glen found himself landing flat on the ground, he felt a little lighter. And more muscular. He had no shirt on, instead he had bandages that wrapped around his torso and his hands. For some reason, the quality of his drawn appearance had also deteriorated, but that didn't matter because we're assuming they're 3D models, or at least I am. He didn't have an amazing, awe inspiring weapon though, and that kind of sucked, but to replace it he had absolutely badass tattoos that he didn't remember getting. Don't ask me how, but he could also feel his manliness level increasing by the second.

In fact, Glen was now so manly he didn't need a weapon. He summoned his Hidden Dragon keyblade in his left hand and closed his eyes for a moment. Focusing every ounce of his extreme manliness into his fists, he gripped the sides of it and, empowering his strength stat to over 9000 for half a second, snapped the keyblade in half. He had other keyblades, because videogame logic, but Hidden Dragon could never be used again. Tossing the remains of it at one of the large bodies before him, he watched it ricochet off it before he dashed forward and prepared for an amazing martial arts sequence.

He hadn't entirely closed the distance, and Glen had maintained the gap between them for good reason. Pulling down the top of the hood he now had on so that it acted as a blindfold, Glen was going to do things the true monkish way. Holding out his hand, he thrusted his arm in the direction of a nearby large body. From his palm, for reasons unknown, a sound wave appeared in physical form and flew at the opponent, marking it with a small icon and revealing it in the fog of war. The camera zoomed in for a brief moment to Glen's hood and went through it to have an intense shot of Glen's intense face of focus. A voice could be heard that is assumed to be his thoughts as a quiet "I can hear your every movement" is played in the air.

Utilizing the second part of his q, Glen dashed through with his leg outstretched in an awesome kung fu kick move, slamming his foot directly into the large body's face and killing it instantly. Then, because he has a wealth of BP on Saturdays, he heard another large body attacking him from behind. Acting swiftly, Glen literally slammed his fist into the ground so hard that a small shockwave was sent from the point of origin, harming the large body and slowing its movement. However, Glen got hit from behind because Riot had decided Lee Sin's e was too OP with the attack speed slow, so Glen was sent crashing to the ground in front of him.

Not willing to admit defeat, the blind monk threw a small stick behind the large body. Yes, a small stick. The small stick had a glowing green eye above it, and revealed the area, so it was a ward stick. In order to save his ward stick friend, Glen dashed to it and gave it a small shield to absorb some damage. He then turned around and pulled up his hood not so he could aim but so he could judge how awesome his next move looked. Unleashing his inner monk, Glen spun around and roundhouse kicked the large body as hard as he possibly could.

"Hikku!" he cried, kicking the heartless so hard it went flying past him, the heartless, and began circulating the world for an hour solid, with Glen kicking it each time it passed to speed it up, before he finally changed the trajectory and sent it crashing into Unibertha, who had apparently grown a unibrow in the last post.

Unfortunately for him, Unibertha was miraculously tanky and took the hit like a boss, only taking 8 damage.

Seeing as how most of the others had turned their attention towards the Behemoth Kel decided to do the same. Most of the other heartless weren't as much as of a immediate threat compared to the behemoths that were waiting for their chance to attack. Seriously, the Behemoths were going one at a time to fight them, which was weird considering that they shouldn't even know what taking turns it, but one did jump in the air like free wily so he can't be all that surprised at things that they could do now. Heck one was able to control wind despite behemoths not being able to control elements. Least they still couldn't suddenly evolve mid battle or anything thing along those line. Dealing with that would be nothing short of hell.

From what he could tell Beuce and Stratos were currently doing the most attacks to the heatless. Strangely enough though, Karina wasn't. Maybe something was wrong with her, well something other than what was usually wrong with her. Whatever it was, this was neither the time nor the place for Kel to be concerned about that. Besides, he lacked the skill needed to mentally examine Karina's mind and would he even want to see the thing that she was keeping locked away in her mind. The answer was a simple no.

Plenty of damage had been don to the behemoth and Kel had attempted to shoot of a blizzard spell like he's done numerous times before, but this time nothing appeared. No puff of smoke, no 'sorry try again' card, heck not even a flag with the word "bang" on it. Not that any of those things would back any sense, well puff of smoke would make the most sense out of the three options, he'd hoped that something would appear. So he was down magic attacks it seemed, well back to the old days when he barely knew any magic to use. Hopefully that would be the only thing similar to his earlier days, though luck was never on his side when it came to things like that.

With magic now being out of the question for him, Kel did the one thing that he could think to do in a time like this. Blindly charge at the behemoth with his keyblade held and his regard for his own safety out the window. If he had learned anything from fighting the behemoths it would be that doing unexpected things may work out in your favor. The prime example of that is Free wily Cat. no one saw that coming and it almost got Kel flattened like a pancake. So this plan of his should work. First he ran under the behemoth and swung his keyblade upward in a arc like slash, both catching the behemoth off guard and getting it off the ground somewhat. The attack wasn't strong enough to send it flying into the ceiling, but it was strong enough to give him enough time to slam his keyblade into the ground, causing not only one, but 3 pillars of fire or pure energy to erupted the ground. Each one had knocked the Behemoth further into the air. So far everything was going according to plan so Kel pressed his assault on the Behemoth by leaping into the air and striking it with a much longer and more powerful air combo. The repeated blows caused the behemoth to bellow out in pain, but unless it grew wings there was nothing that it could do to save itself from the aerial onslaught. When the final blow was struck, the behemoth was sent towards the ground along with the iconic cherry blossoms and snow flakes that fell. Kel then took a quick second to get his zantetsuken into a ready position then unleashed it on the behemoth, landing safely on the ground and the behemoth disappeared into mist behind him.

Defeated: Larry the Behemoth

 

After Stratos had done his bit, he watched as Larry the Pedalmoth had finally broken free from Beuce's grasp. Then, in astounding amount of detail, Beuce started to let loose his skills. The awe inspiring attack that had him pour raw physical strength and manliness into the ground to create a geyser of said energies, the newly found Brave Shot command. After Beuce had hit the heartless with such an impressive and truly vivid attack, he proceeded to partake in something rather gory and painted the perfect picture as to what he did. Beuce grabbed Larry the Pedalmoth's horn, and ripped it off with all of his strength, letting loose black smoke from where the horn used to be, showing that the heartless was indeed in an awful state. My word, those attacks were so filled with detail Stratos was blown away by them. Not to mention the behemoth was weak enough now that even he could take it on and win right now. Alas, twas not meant to be. As another who had found their inner strength released and manifested into physical form, Kel, had shown up to the scene. After unleashing a serious of attacks, he finished the behemoth by using zantetsuken, thus killing it entirely. Well, at least it was no more, however he felt as though Kel still had ten bp to spare that just wasn't used yet.

Regardless, Stratos was now catching his breath as the enemy had been felled. That was one behemoth down, and seven more to go. Man, there was a lot more of these things here than at their side. Stratos started to ponder as to why that was, though he figured it was just some sort of cruel aspect of fate. Kind of like the reason why all the behemoths weren't actually just regular behemoths and had some sort of super natural ability. It was then that he turned to look at the next behemoth. One who seemed ready to avenge Larry the Pedalmoth. However, the appearance seemed to be quite different than literally anything they had been fighting thus far. This behemoth was a pale white color. It had on a white and red striped poofy shirt, with a poofy frilled color. Not to mention its pants were poofy. It had some odd symbols seemingly painted on its face, and the behemoth still had... a blank expression. Well at least that was good. However, the thing that stuck out most was the fact that this behemoth was riding a unicycle and was juggling rubber balls with its claws. This was no ordinary non-ordinary behemoth, this was Shac, the Clownmoth.

Stratos had no idea how to approach this thing as it was pedaling its way on it enormous unicycle, but had to quickly guard against the first barrage of attacks this thing had. It started just throwing the rubber balls it was juggling at Stratos, and while at first he thought he could handle them, then he took into consideration the scale of this thing. Well, that was terrible. The balls were actually huge in comparison to the boy, and while they did bounce off of his keyblade Stratos was still pushed back and still got hurt from the bulk of that attack. Being sent back he turned to the others and said, "what is up with all of these behemoths? It's like they're trying to just be absurd at this point." Regardless, he knew that he to attack the thing, but couldn't figure out how without any MP. And so he quickly ran over to where Karina was, and grabbed a surveillance robot. He then noticed that Karina seemed a tad sulky, again, and he didn't really know the reason. However, he did just give her a thumbs up saying, "keep up the good work. We'll have these guys finished in no time, just like before." He then jumped into the air and fired off sparkle ray at the Clownmoth, dealing his damage and then throwing away the heartless that fired the beam.

Shac the Clownmoth was a terrifying foe if ever there was one. With all the ferocity of a behemoth and all the skills (and horror) of a clown, this thing was surely to pack a large punch against them all. It was almost as terrifying as a clown badger, really. Almost. Nothing could quite match that in terms of ferocity and raw power. Tangent aside, Stratos had to think of a way to deal with this heartless. So far the surveillance robots were doing a great job at dealing damage against the enemy team of heartless, so as long as they were still around they could still bombard the heartless with giant lasers and the like. He looked to the side to see that Karina, who was now in a huff, had killed all of them with her bare hands. Well, there went that idea. She then basically roared to them all that the trick ghost heartless were hers to kill and hers alone. Well, it was good to see she was in great spirits and was a true team player right now. Not like Stratos could say that he entirely was, having rashly acted to a lot of things thus far, but still. Ah well, as long as she was still fighting that was what, sort of, mattered. At least this way she wouldn't get herself nearly killed like last time her mood went swinging.

Attention now away from Karina, he turned to face the clownmoth who was casually strolling around on a unicycle. The balls that he had originally thrown had all been bouncing around, but somehow magically found their way back to the unicycle riding enemy. Well that was a bother. Stratos prepared himself for another round getting attacked by Shac, and realized that he needed to think of something quick in order to not get killed by this thing. In fact, doing some killing instead would be good as well. The behemoth than started pedaling more furiously, all while expertly juggling these rubber balls, and tried to run over Stratos. What an *******. Stratos couldn't exactly guard against the strike, as the unicycle was huge and could simply trample over him if it really wanted to. Stratos expertly dodge rolled out of the way, only to see the behemoth turning around, at a rather sharp angle, and came at him again. Wait, how was it able to do that?

Stratos wasn't a physics major by any stretch of the imagination, but he was pretty sure that the behemoth should not have been able to do that. What with its weight, the overall size of it, and the size of the unicycle. Not to mention that at the speed it was going at, the way it turned should have caused it to fall off. Which could only mean that Shac the Clownmoth had another terrifying ability in his skill set. The ability to have perfect balance and never fall off of its unicycle. Now that he thought about it, it seemed rather unfazed earlier when he had shot a gigantic laser at it. While he didn't think anything weird of it then, now that he was actually stopping to realize just how much of scientific oddity that was, he realized that the behemoth actually had some sort of ability like this. Stratos dodge rolled out of the way, only to see that as the clownmoth had passed them, it had dropped a box. The box had a handle on it that seemed to be turning itself all while playing some really childish, yet oh so creepy, jingle. As the jingle came to its end, the box had sprung open and revealed the jack inside of it. And by jack he meant bomb. That's right, the box started to spit a bomb out at him, only for Stratos to quickly dodge roll out of the way again.

He turned to face the behemoth once more, who was still had the classic blank eyes that all the behemoths had had. Except for Larry, which were just more feral and angry than anything else. So he had to keep on his toes, as one could never anticipate the actions of one with an expressionless gaze. It was then that the behemoth started to throw the rubber balls at Stratos, who had done what he had done before to counter it. Putting up his guard, he blocked against all the strikes, and managed to deflect them all, only to see that the behemoth was now charging at him once more. He quickly dodge rolled out of the way to avoid getting crushed, only for this behemoth to do an actual behemoth move and fire energy balls from its horn as it passed by. Stratos quickly guarded again, blocking the strikes were homing in on him. Repelling the strike, Stratos then noticed that the behemoth wasn't quite finished him just yet, as it preformed one of its impossible turns again.

Having done so while the energy ball attack was still going, Stratos realized that there was no way he could move out of the way in time, and continue block against the bombardment of attacks, and so he had to think of a better way out of this. Thinking on it, he realized he still had his greatest escape mechanism at the ready again, and decided now was a great time to use it. Allowing the cherry blossoms to fall from the sky, Stratos used Zantetsuken to pass through the behemoth and his attacks, getting him to safety. After having done that, Stratos then looked over at the behemoth and quickly decided to cast fire on the moving target. The fireball homed in on the behemoth's horn and exploded on impact, dealing even more damage, and ending Stratos's turn against the thing. Now all he needed to do was wait for someone else to do something to attract the behemoth's attention. As things were, Stratos could hold the thing off for a bit and give the others some time fight it, but he wouldn't be able to beat it on his own.

D'daear dove away as a bolt of lightning smacked into the marble floor where the young keyblade wielder had just been. The boy landed with stomach and chest skidding slightly against the floor; thankfully the sleeveless shirt allowed for him to avoid any painful friction. "Oof-!" he uttered, quickly pushing up with both arms in order to raise himself. The young lad quickly put blue irises to work as he locked on to the floating tower that had made it its mission to harm D'daear. Fear, and Anxiety had all subsides to a certain extent. It was because of the allies that were near him that allowed for such suppression of emotions. However, like recently stated: to an extent. Eyelids widened themselves, the image of a lightning stream clearly reflecting off of D'daear's blue pupils. Within milliseconds decision did the warrior dive once more, away from the spot. The lightning crackled, and thundered as it met with the floor, leaving a charred stain. D'daear quickly tucked both head and arms as he dodged, rolling to a new position. As before, he quickly got into stance. Mind raised with a quick solution to overcome this strange foe. The creature was rather large in height, almost cylindrical in form with spikes protruding beneath its head; the head was at the body of the form instead of above. Red, gold, and grey were this heartless's trademark colors; although a few variants probably had identical colors. D'daear stood his ground as the bolt tower levitated closer to him, it's form acting all quirky. "Ok ok...think think! How do I get in close without that thing firing off its lightning?!" he murmured to himself, slowly letting his feet trail backwards. While he backed away, a large form had stationed itself in the path D'daear was slowly heading to. To D'daear's good fortune, it was completely oblivious as it was too focused on readying a charge towards one of the key wielders nearby.

Taking a step, D'daear accidentally bumped rear ends with the form blockading his slow retreat. Startled, His head quickly turned to find out that it was an Assault rider he had stumbled onto. It seemed to have been startled as well. It's head stirred to turn its attention towards the purple haired individual. Speechless and frozen in shock at the close quarters, the two stood there with locked eyes; both stuck in a bizarre moment. The adolescent gave a shy smile. "Uuhh...eHeh...-?" D'daear managed to utter in awkwardness. The Horse like heartless turned its body in a matter of a second, quickly swinging its glaive like weapon upon registering what had just happened. D'daear quickly responded by intercepting the incoming horizontal swing. The keyblade was put out in front of him with both hands tightly gripping the handle. The weapons clashed, with the heartless proving to be more physically powerful. With such great strength, the heartless managed to break through D'daear's guard as he sent him off balance. While the key wielder Fumbled to find footing, the assault rider moved in for a stab towards D'daear's torso with a thrust of the guan dao. In the midst of teetering feet, D'daear managed to pivot with his right heel in order to twist the body just enough in order to avoid the attack. With the pole arm missing its mark by a small margin, D'daear fell forward in a loss of balance. However, he quickly found himself rolling forward as he saw the large body of the assault rider standing on two legs over him. The hooves in the air came down hard, slamming against the spot where the boy had just been. He quickly got up and launched his keyblade like a sharp disk towards the Adversary without thought, almost instinctively. The weapon sliced clean through the assault rider, as well as coincidentally running through the Bolt Towers head! What luck! On top of that, as the sweet memories keyblade so happened to be returning back to its owner, it would seem another Bolt Tower had been in the process of making its way to another one of D'daear's comrades. Most unfortunate for it as it launched its head in an attempt to harm one of the nearby key wielders which just so happened to be the keyblade's returning trajectory. The blade sliced through the disembodied head, soon finding its way to D'daear's experienced hands.

A huge gap formed between D'daear's lips as he stood there with a smile. "Alright! I'm definitely getting the hang of this!" he shouted in triumphant glee.

There was only one Wyvern left, and Kross was very much relieved of that. The remaining Wyvern idly flapped its wings, as if it was taunting him. He gripped the hilt of his keyblade and drew it behind him slowly, leveling his hand and his palm faced the ground."All right, big and ugly..come and get some!" He said. The Wyvern charged, and Kross did so in tandem. Instead of fully charging into the wyvern, he jumped, front flipping and landed on its head. The confused heartless thrashed its head to try to knock the Mage off but Kross was much more nimble than that. He gripped onto the Wyvern tightly, gritting his teeth as the Wyvern crashed into the wall, rattling his insides. The Wyvern clawed at the wall with its huge talons, trying to throw Kross off. He held on tight and his glare sharpened."You destroyed my home..killed my family..I will destroy.you.all.."He said in a venomous calm tone. His body glowed a yellow color and he rose his keyblade up while still gripping onto the Wyvern. Multiple thunder spells rained down on the thrashing wyvern, multiple booms heralding Kross's wrath. even if Kross's anger was matched by an angry puppy, he could bite, hard. The Wyvern was a ruined mess when Kross was starting to calm down. He leaped off of the now-dead Wyvern and turned his sites on the hulking Behemoth. He could see noticeable wear marks on the giant heartless. He breathed in and then back out, digging his heels into the ground and then charged at the Behemoth."Gahhhhhh!!!" He yelled out, poising his keyblade and then swung, sending blizzard spells at the behemoth with wild abandon.

Raisor shook out his legs. Standing up for so long was making his feet fall asleep, and he could really use a moment to sit down. He had practiced fighting all the time growing up, but even still, he never had to fight this many enemies in this amount of time. The worst part was, he still didn't know how long he had left till all the heartless were gone. At this point Raisor was pretty sure the South side was lagging behind with the most heartless, and it was hard to tell how many were actually being taken out. It would have been nice if they could have taken a head count before this whole fiasco started in the first place. Of course, if they did, Raisor would probably be counting down how many were left, and he'd give himself a headache.

Preparing for his next fight, Raisor watched as two Large Bodies walked into the ring. Raisor was not looking forward to dealing with two giant pinballs in this ring of sharp spears. Then again, maybe he'd get lucky and the Large Bodies would be dumb enough to stick themselves onto the spear. He would about to find out, because the Large Bodies did their usual pat on the stomach and charged straight forward. Since one was coming in from the front, and one from the back, Raisor needed a way to get into a blind spot of theirs without any trouble. As the closed inn, He decided to just bolt away from them toward the edge of the ring. When the Large Bodies collided, Raisor did not expect what happened next. The heartless hit each other and then started running around like crazy. One of the heartless even ran straight toward the spears and bounced right off them, going the other way; that put Raisor's shish-kabob theory to dust. He was not understanding how that worked, even if their front was impervious to physical attacks. They were jumping around like a bouncing ball against walls. Except in this case it was more like a dot bouncing around the inner edges of a circle.

Raisor needed a way to stop the enemies, and he tried to get behind one of the Large Bodies, only for the other to pop up and have him escape to another location. It was difficult finding an opening when each one was running around with the other and not giving any room to breath. As they ran, Raisor needed to just take a chance to knock around one of the enemies. If he didn't he'd be running around like a chicken forever. As one of the Large Bodies headed in his direction, while the other began to turn around and run perpendicular to the first, Raisor dodged out of the way. As the heartless got near the edge, he took the opportunity to attack the heartless and stop it. The Large Body stopped its attack, and stayed still. Raisor noticed the second Large Body heading his way, and he quickly took out the one in front of him by knocking it on the back and causing it to fade.

As the second Large Body charged toward him, he took a risk and shot his fire spell toward the enemy. The fire collided with the heartless, and it stopped running. The problem was, the purple aura appeared around the heartless, and it flung itself forward, sliding toward Raisor. Raisor needed to act quickly to make sure he didn't turn into a pancake. Putting his his guard, he met the heartless head-on, with his keyblade slamming onto the Large Body. The creature stopped, and while it was down, Raisor used his combo on the enemy and finished with a strong horizontal slash. The enemy dissipated, and Raisor was down two more heartless.

With that behemoth finally being taken care, Kel turned to see just what the next behemoth that was going to take the place of the behemoth that was just defeated. He definitely wasn't expecting to see a freaking clown riding a unicycle, chasing Stratos around. Another look at the clown and Kel realized that it was a behemoth dressed as a freaking clown riding a unicycle. Screw Free Wily Cat, this was by far the strangest and most unlikely thing that he would ever see a heartless do. Especially considering how it had somehow attained the ability of perfect balance on unicycle. Something that not even X-Ray could do even if he tried, least Kel imagine that riding a unicycle would be pretty difficult to do.

That was when Karina had decide to claim all of the trick ghost for herself. Not the most ideal harem, but whatever. The Clownmoth on the other hand responded to her words by giving her a "bish please" look on its face, which was funny considering it was wearing clown makeup, and threw one of the balls that it was juggling towards her. At first it looked like the ball was aiming for Karina, but instead it bounced off of one of the trick ghosts and flew into the air. It stayed afloat for a few second before coming down right on top of two Trick ghosts that happened to be right in front of Karina. The clownmoth clearly knew what it was doing as it simply acted like it had did nothing and went back to juggling, which would be funny when Karina reacted to all this. Hell, seeing anyone beat the tar of the clownmoth would be pretty funny and definitely a sight to see. The behemoth then turned its attention to Kel, seeing as how he had done nothing but watch the heartless piss Karina off when she realized what had happened, and threw one of the balls it had been juggling towards Kel.

The blue haired wielder definitely wasn't expecting that to happen so he dropped his keyblade and caught the ball that had been thrown at him. The clownmoth wasn't too fond of what Kel had did so it threw another ball at him, this time though Kel toss the first one back at the behemoth and caught the next one. Which lead the behemoth to doing the same thing repeatedly, each time Kel caught the ball and tossed it back at the heartless. It wasn't that long before they were pretty much playing catch with the balls. The heartless determined to strike Kel and Kel was determined not to get hit. Eventually the heartless grew tired of their little game and decided to end it. So when the ball had gotten back to the behemoth, it grabbed it and threw a fastball towards Kel.

If not for the fact that his keyblade could be summoned back to his hand at any given time, then this might be a problem. Upon seeing the fastball make its way towards him, Kel tossed the ball he was holding into the air and summoned his keyblade into his hands. Then he got into a position fitting of the fastball approaching him. He waited til it was within swinging range and swung with all of his might at and smacked the ball back towards the heartless. The ball struck the heartless smack in the face, yet it somehow didn't fall off of the unicycle. Talk about your godly balance skill. As the ball that he'd thrown into the air came down, he caught it in his hands before placing his foot on top of it as he waited for the heartless to make its next move.

Raisor brought his arms up to his head and gave a few deep breathes. He made sure his body stayed straight so the oxygen would get to his lungs with no problem, and breathed out as deeply, making sure he was well rested. The two large bodies a minute ago were certainly something, and he really didn't feel like doing something along those lines again. The Large Body heartless were pretty straightforward in what they did, and about as stupid as they looked, but that didn't mean he wanted to get on their bad side and do something stupid. If he got into a pinch here, he wasn't sure what he was going to do in the future when he went home after this adventure. He had to make sure that he was strong enough to protect others, but at the same time he had to make sure that he could protect himself. Those tendencies of rushing into the battle were gone, and he made sure to keep those feeling repressed, making sure to take precautions and always make sure he was in a good enough condition to keep battling. The biggest problem right now was that he couldn't just sit down, so he was really hoping that someone would come and get him out already.

Lifting his head up toward the sky, Raisor yelled at the top of his lungs, "Hey, whoever is still fighting, could you guys come over and give me a hand!? I'm stuck here and really could use a bit of assistance!!"

He brought his head back down, preparing for his next challenge. If he ever entered a tournament for stamina, at this point he was sure he'd score pretty high. The one thing he had to admit the heartless had was what seemed like an infinite amount of energy, since they always just kept attacking and attacking until they disappeared. Guess when you're made out of darkness you don't have to worry about something like stamina. And the Large Bodies were probably one of the best examples. As one stepped into the ring, Raisor wondered how those things could keep going with such a giant body. It was certainly a feat for them, he had to figure.

Raisor inched toward the Large Body, making sure not to get too close too soon, and also closing the distance so that it wouldn't start running like an out of control train. As he got closer, the corner of his eyes picked up movement, and he quickly put his keyblade to his side, guarding against a giant hand that came flying toward him. Raisor wasn't sure how it had managed to do it, but the Large Body swung its hand without Raisor noticing at all and nearly knocked him across the ground. It certainly had cheekiness, if nothing else. The Large Body took the arm away, and Raisor figured what was going to happen next. He quickly ducked too his right, dodging the other hand flying toward him. Taking the chance, he side-stepped and twisted his body to get behind the heartless and knocked it around. Before it could react, Raisor used his Sliding Dash technique to slam into the heartless and send it flying. While it was in the air, he sent a few fire spells and knocked it out for good.

With that done, the second Large Body came in, and Raisor was about ready to scream at these guys. He'd almost rather take the Defenders again, since they weren't as big and impervious to attacks. Sure, they had their shields, but other than that, nothing. Dealing with these Large Bodies, they weren't harmed by Physical attacks, and his spells were only strong enough to take them out when they were already weak. Taking the initiative, Raisor ran toward the enemy, hoping to get the heartless to do something stupid and give itself an opening. Guessing correctly, the Heartless ran for him, and Raisor dropped to the ground, and swung his keyblade at the Large Body's feet. The blow to the feet with heartless running forward caused the heartless to fly forward a little. Raisor quickly scuttled out of the way, and when the heartless slammed on the ground, he hoped on the creature's back. Taking advantage of the perfect hit, he raised his keyblade, grabbed it with both hands, and thrust down straight into the back. The heartless twitched a little for a second, then disappeared. Raisor dropped to the ground where the heartless was, and waited for his next fight.

Stratos was thankful that Kel was here to help back him up against Shac the Clownmoth. He was soon expecting Karina to do something about this as well, seeing as the clownmoth seemed to be trying to provoke her by just killing some of its own allies. Looking at the heartless as it preformed such an action, it looked like it had some sort of troll face. It's expression was the same, sure, but he knew that deep down, beneath the surface of its face, there was a troll face. While he was monloguing about the art of troll facing, he then looked up to see that the clownmoth and Kel had gotten into a sort of altercation. The behemoth was chucking its rubber balls, at the blue haired keyblade wielder...and he was doing the exact same thing to it. He was completely confused as to just what was going on, and why Kel was catching and throwing the balls back at the clownmoth, but his thoughts were interrupted as the behemoth threw a fast ball towards the keyblade wielder. It was that he witnessed Kel do a lot of different maneuvers that he couldn't be bothered to remember or describe, but he watched him do it anyway.

It was then that Stratos realized it was his turn to go up, and so he decided to go do something. Stratos got on his keyglider and flew off towards the clownmoth. Getting closer to it he quickly hurled his keyglider in the strike raid-esque fashion towards the behemoth, though it countered this with relative ease. It quickly threw one of its rubber balls at the glider, intercepting it and knocking the glider out of the air. It then started lobbing more of its rubber juggling balls at him, and he quickly reacted to this. What's that? This wasn't an actual reaction command? Well screw that, he decided to go and use it as a reaction command anyway. Stratos quickly summoned his keyblade back to his hand, and then managed to get on top of one of the balls that was being thrown at him. Leaping from ball to ball, he managed to close the distance between the two using this technique, and then laid out on him. He quickly let loose an air combo on the thing, hitting it with a string with a three hit combo, Once the third hit hit, he chained it off into vorpal blitz, letting loose a three hit combo that hit it with an ice imbued keyblade, he managed to strike it with the third hit extra hard due to being in the air. With that command being let loose, he then decided to end it with another three hit combo, bringing his blade down especially hard on the final strike.

He then watched as the rubber balls came back at him, being magnetically attracted to the behemoth, and so Stratos had to react to this with a non-reaction reaction command. He quickly hopped off of one ball to another, clearing the attack completely, and then got on his keyglider to fly away. Once he got away from this attack and the enemy in general, he then looked to Kel. He was unsure of what his status was...but actually it was probably the same as everyone else. Having generated enough mp to use all of it at once, he cast aero on the three warriors that were here, managing to give them all better defense. After all, they had pretty much no way of using magic as they were now. "You're up next," he called out to Kel and/or Beuce.

Counting around, Raisor could count about 9 of the Large Bodies left to deal with. He wasn't sure how quickly he could get rid of them, but he knew he needed to get rid of them soon. Even after the Large Bodies, he still needed to get rid of the Morning Stars, and then the Assault Riders, which he hoped by that point help would arrive. He dug himself into this situation by calling the heartless over, but he didn't expect that it would get as annoying as it was at this point. The most he could manage was just take down the heartless one by one, or at this point, two by two, and slim down the forces. Even after all of these guys, there were still Black Fungus and Bolt Towers, but they weren't nearly as destructive as the enemies he was dealing with at the moment.

As if on cue, the Large Body came through the line of Assault Riders, and Raisor prepared yet again to deal with this enemy. There wasn't much else he could do, but he wondered if maybe he could use the Large Body to open up the ring and get through the Assault Riders. The problem was that even if he managed to make it through the Riders, he also had the Morning Stars to deal with, and even then, the rest of the Large Bodies, and then he'd have to worry about a million heartless still running after him. The best thing seemed to be to stay where he was and hope that he could keep up long enough to get through this battle. He was asking for a vacation at the end of this, that was certain.

The Large Body slapped its belly, and began rushing toward Raisor. He didn't feel like running around against a pinball again, so he got his keyblade in position and prepared to slam against the Large Body. It wasn't that hard deal with the Large Bodies, but he was getting kind of sleepy fighting against them. The repetitious fights were actually making him sleepy, like reading a book over and over and getting bored. He brought his keyblade forward, and hit the Large Body against its stomach, and the heartless stopped moving. Like usual, the enemy stood around like it was confused, and Raisor took the time to get around its back and attack it. After getting around, he attacked with his combo. After 4 hits, he attacked the Large Body and sent it across the ground to the other side of the ring. The Large Body got up from the attack and faced Raisor again. Apparently the creature wasn't damaged enough to bring out its sliding attack, but Raisor was also sure he could take it out without having to worry about it either. He slammed against the Large Body yet again, and went around to combo it once more. As Raisor thought, the heartless disappeared after his combo.

With the disappearance of the Large Body, another came to take its place. Not much of a surprise at this point. In fact, Raisor could set a watch to how often these things come in. The Large Body walked out, and slammed its stomach, just like the last. Raisor sighed, knowing that these things couldn't do much. At least the Defenders had some difference to their attacks, but these guys just rush forward. True, they could slam their hands, but you'd have to actually let them get close and take the time for that. Raisor slammed the heartless in the gut, just like the last, and went to the back. He started attacking the back faster than the last, and made sure with his last strike he put enough force in to cause the heartless to vanish in defeat. As the smoke disappeared, Raisor kind of wished he had a watch, just to see how long it would take for the next Large Body.

Stratos, despite what he had said at the end of his last post, was not actually about to wait for the others to make their move. Why? Because a giant rubber ball came flying at him. Stratos was able to quickly bring his keyglider up and block the oncoming strike, though he was not entirely safe with just that block alone. Having been hit with the giant ball, Stratos went down down in this early of a round, and sugar he went down swinging...his keyblade to be precise. Why again? Because one did not simply just through a singular rubber ball and then stop attacking with them. When a clownmoth juggling balls threw them at you, it was going to keep throwing more and more at you no matter what you did. So, Stratos had to keep swinging his keyblade, doing some sort of non-existant reaction command thing again, to bounce the balls back at the heartless. The only problem was that he had no mp for aero, and no keyglider to get on, lest he get pelted. So if he fell and hit the ground, it was going to hurt like a *****. And so what he did next was his grand escape plan. When the next ball came at him, Stratos used his keyblade to spike it down.

With the ball going straight down at such a high velocity, due to his strength being magnified from the power of reaction commands, when it hit the ground, it bounced straight up. Stratos then used this to escape, by having the ball hit him from underneath, sending him skyward bound. While this still hurt, the other balls that the behemoth managed to throw at him were completely evaded as they were aimed towards where he used to be. Stratos then followed this up with another made up reaction command in which he somehow ended up being positioned behind the ball rather than on top of it, and then whacked the ball back its holder. The clownmoth gave absolutely no ****s about this, and then just grabbed the ball that was flying at him at him like it was no big deal. It then used its magical magnetic powers to pull all the other rubber balls back to it, and casually started juggling it again. Stratos then got on his keyglider and started to fly away, letting himself go towards the behemoth he was soon shutdown on this prospect.

Why? Because rather than throwing balls this time it pulled ****ing daggers out of nowhere. It just started chucking daggers straight at Stratos, completely ready to murder him with extreme prejudice. He was able to weave way around these, as they weren't as big as the balls and thus were more easily dodged, but he was soon knocked out of the sky again by a rubber ball bouncing into his keyglider. He started to fall as the hit connected, and he had to think fast again. For the exact same situation. Twice in one post. However this time, Stratos was able to get on his keyglider and fly away. Why? Because the clownmoth was no longer focused on Stratos. In fact, it seemed more focus on dealing with Karina and started just throwing its rubber balls at her instead. The behemoth then stopped and turned his attention back to Stratos, who was now far and away. However, the behemoth just seemed to be weaker out of nowhere. Stratos did absolutely nothing and it just seemed to be taking damage. Well that was something nice.
