Video Game: Kingdom Hearts SOS: The Road To Light

Luna looked over as Aislinn was impressed. She scratched her head as she laughed a little. "I don't think it's that impressive." As Aislinn went on to continue to fight the heartless, Luna saw a neoshadow limping across the sand. "Guess this one survived.." She ran over to the heartless and struck it down. She stood back up and walked back over to Aislinn and Beuce. Aislinn had just gotten back and then proceeded to ask her question. "So what brought you from your lands then Luna? If you are a princess I would think you would have duties back home that you would be needed for." Her eyes widened for a few moments before she looked away. After a few moments of silence, Luna had begun to speak. "Well....that's exactly why I'm here...M-m-my home..." Before she could continue any further, some neoshadows had started to make their way toward the trio. She clenched the handle on her blade. She started walking toward them. "My home was taken from me. I'm here to not only bring it back, but to find my family and bring back those who are lost.....and..." Light had begun to emit from her chest once more. She continued to walk toward them and then stopped. "To reclaim the throne!!" Luna jumped up and sent four pillars of light toward the neoshadows. Each pillar sliced through the neoshadows immediately. She landed back on the ground and turned back to Aislinn. "My duties lie here. Where my people are...that is where home is. My sole duty is protect my people and reclaim our land back from the shadows that had taken it all away." She stood proudly as a single tear ran down her face.

A dream came to Ananta in her sleep. In the dream, she was on a beach in her world, playing in sand and being taken to the boardwalk where she fell over. At that moment, she opened her eyes and gasped in a deep breath of air. Ananta coughed, as if she hadn't taken a breath in awhile. Coughing and grabbing her chest, she grabbed her crystal and felt the warmth inside was very dim. Her fingers trembled as she realized just how bad her situation was right now. She couldn't use magic for awhile. She was forced to use only physical attacks now. "I...I gotta talk...to Kaida..." she muttered to herself, moving to stand up. She wobbled a little bit, feeling weaker, but her strength was returning gradually at the least so she could fight.

Her eyes wandered the battlefield, seeing it now devoid of the two gargantuan heartless. Thanking her comrades silently, Ananta wandered carefully over to Kaida and looked at her. "Thank you...I...I nearly died there..." she said, avoiding even saying she had basically stopped breathing. She didn't want to make Kaida worry, after all. Besides, all that happened was she had retreated deep into her crystal to heal a little bit. "Sorry if I worried you." she chuckled. "But I can't use magic right now....so please excuse my lack of healing for awhile."

Ananta called her keyblades out and stared down at them. As ridiculous as they looked, they gave her more abilities to deal with the enemies. Though they were all magical...she'd try to make up for it. "Watch my back." she said, running towards two darkballs. They both snarled and zoomed at Ananta. She blocked one of them and slashed at the other. The two heartless were both balloon in structure, so she figured piercing them would cause them to deflate. The first one instantly disappeared and the other one got a little confused by that. Ananta took this chance to dispatch of the second and she chuckled at the sound of air that seemed to seep out of the dark smoke.

"Kaida, I got a question just between us girls." she asked, hopping back. Her breathing was heavy even from that light amount of fighting. Shaking her head, she looked at Kaida. "Um...ok, don't take this the wrong way, I've just noticed the way you act around them. Do you like....like Aux or Hikaru? In more than a deep friendship way? I'm just curious, maybe I'm getting the wrong vibes." she said, looking up to see a darkball zooming down. Ananta stabbed it with her keyblade as five more surrounded the two.

Taking no chances, Ananta quickly attacked the darkballs. One by one they were dealt with before she landed on her feet, falling to her knee. "Ugh..." she groaned, losing her keyblades as her hands hit the sand.

It seemed like neoshadow heartless and Darkball heatless were still around him. A neoshadow Heartless had started to run up to him. He ran toward the neoshadow heartless, blade in hand, and attacked. The neoshadow heartless had fallen in matter of seconds. Once the neoshadow heartless was vanquished, he looked around and spotted heartless all around him. For some reason there seemed to be more around him then normal. This left a few possibilities. One was that everyone had somehow died. While this was possible it was the most unlikely case. The other option was that most if not all the others had grouped up somewhere. The heartless were getting smarter as the battle went on and he thought that they would continue do do so for the remainder of however long they had left fighting this crazy man known as uniform. If the others were indeed grouped together that only met a few things. One was that the heartless were now going to take out thos who stood by themselves like him. It was far easier to take down one person then it was a group of say two or three people. if people were not grouped together that met that there were rather far from him like on the other side of the island. Staying in one place was the only option he had at the moment and was probably going to be the only option for some time. Well there was only one thing left to do which was to continue fighting.

From what he could tell the heartless were dwindling slower then before which again met something happened were someone was not fighting or people were dead. He was not trying to think about possible death of the others at the moment as there was nothing he could do for the moment. As he was looking around, a group of three neoshadow heartless had come up behind him. He felt something behind him. He then turned around and immediately jumped back. He sighed and then grabbed his weapon tighter and took down the three neoshadow heartless. He looked around for any more heartless that were headed toward him. There were still many that surrounded him. He saw two more Neoshadow heartless standing around. He ran over to the the two neoshadow heartless and immediately took out them both. The last few neoshadow heartless nearby rose from the ground. There seemed to be no time for rest. These ones seemed to acknowledge that there was no way they were going to be able to beat him with pack tactics they were now to few in number. That said he knew that at any moment more neoshaodw heartless could show up. The neoshadow heartless threatened to pounce on him at any second. He would just have to take them. These heartless seemed to not have a end it was almost like a bad dream only that this was real. Apparently these things would just keep on coming to no end. There was nothing he could think of to stop this horde of heartless. The only thing he could think of was to somehow get to uniform and take him out. The only way he could do that was to take out the heartless that were around him. The problem with that was by the he took out enough heartless to get to uniform more heartless would show up. It would be a never ending thing. Well the fight was going well, but slower and the only thing he could do for the moment was speed things along a little.

When the smoke from his firaga spell had finally cleared, Kel was quick to notice that the heartless specifically around him and thinned out a fair bit. Primarily he was left facing Darkballs with a couple of Neoshadows still lurking around. He charged in to attack after making this assessment of his surroundings and cut through a Darkball that had drifted close to him. As the heartless dissipated, the others took notice to their comrades untimely demise and set their sights towards Kel. The latter, who had stopped moving after his attack on the heartless, gave the remaining ones a simple taunt. His free hand had extended itself out towards them and from there he motioned for them to 'bring it'. Some of the heartless took the bait and dashed at him with full reckless abandon. He would have liked it if he'd gotten the attention of all of the heartless, but this number was good enough. Nothing beyond what he could handle. The 3 charging Darkballs had gotten within his attack range and Kel was quick to jump over them all. While in the air, he aimed his Kel flicked his keyblade at them. All three of the heartless were completely carved through by the spinning keyblade before it returned to Kel for him to catch in his hand. The other heartless that had stayed back as the first three attack saw this at their chance to strike and flew into the air to attack him before he could land. Knowing that he he wouldn't be able to dodge from his current position his options were now limited to either blocking or trying to make a counterattack, Kel choose to go with the latter and used the first Darkball that had gotten close as a foothold to adjust himself. From there he spun, igniting the tip of his keyblade in flames, and struck down on the remaining heartless that were coming to attack him. By the time he had landed, the heartless had already completely vanished from the sky.

Beuce chuckled as Aislinn said that he seemed to be holding up perfectly. "Yeah, well, this isn't my first rodeo. Though from the looks of things it definitely might be the biggest." He said, looking at the horde still to come. They hadn't even crossed the halfway point yet, but Beuce wasn't discouraged in the least. The words Stratos had said to him at the beginning kept echoing in his head. "Yeah yeah I know, keep a faster pace." He muttered to himself, readying his keyblade and Scouter Disc in much a similar stance to the one that he'd seen Rinzler use with his scouting disc up near his head, trained to throw and his keyblade stretched outward for melee combat. "So...Aislinn right? I don't think I ever actually caught this but how exactly did you end up in the realm of darkness in Mizrabel's castle? Doesn't strike me as a particularly great tourist location, but you saved us there so I never really thought about it much."

He went forward, ready to defeat the last remaining bunch of heartlss in the wave. They'd almost finished, and then they were to move on to the next battle. Between them, this had been far less harrowing than the last time they'd been forced to battle an incredible horde of heartless, despite the fact there were even more of them this time. Maybe that spoke volumes as to how much stronger they'd become. There were only four remaining darkballs in all the wave. They, at least comparatively, were incredibly non-threatening. Aislinn had even injured one of them already for him. Still, despite the overwhelming odds against them, they just simply snapped their enormous jaw at him like they always had. His data form apparently gave him enhanced mental capacity. Something about processing power? In any case, he managed to counter it with ease. He knocked the spherical heartless back with his keyblade and threw the scouting disc forward, sending it straight through the black ball like creature and derezzing it like he had with all the others. He wasn't particularly why they did that, or even what "derezzing" was. He didn't know anything about computers. Until recently, he didn't even know they existed.

He batted the injured one aside and brought down the scounting disc as it returned to his hand, taking out the second one. He flicked his wrist and sent another virus out, the coding draining into the darkball and slowly eating away at its health, though this time it appeared to be stronger due to the upgrades. With only one last to go, he brought down another pillar of light to decimate the final one. Once it was gone, the virus claimed the last. "Well, that about wraps that up. We've got that out of the way. I'd say we're a little under halfway done." He said to the two girls nearby. They seemed to be having a conversation about Luna being a princess. He was honestly kind of interested. She talked about protecting her people. She said that was her duty. "Yeah, I can understand that. Maybe not in the same way you look at it, but I can definitely sympathize with you there." He thought back to his homeworld, and wondered when he'd get a chance to reclaim it. He was still alive, so the King's Gambit was still in play. He'd be willing to bet Sorenia wasn't as weak as he remembered, either. ​

As the group had managed to finally fell the last of the heartless, Stratos was starting to feel a bit of fatigue set in. While they had managed to slay a large collection of the heartless, it had seemed that Hughes had an almost never ending supply of them. This time, as he and the member of the order that he was battling were starting to get to a stand still, Hughes summoned yet another wave of heartless for them to all deal with. While the last one had definitely been difficult to deal with, this one was something on a completely different scale. A swarm of darkness as far as the eye could see, similar in mass to the one that they had just fought yet entirely different in composition. The boy couldn't see a single regular shadow in the entire swarm, instead seeing nothing but the elongated an gaunt bodies of neo shadows, a swarm of dark balls hovering above them as they began to come into view and of course, yet more large and imposing heartless. Those with the angelic features, wielding swords, and the others that towered above all else. With two more of the colossus heartless, the darksides that had proven quite difficult to deal with before, Stratos was starting to see why everybody else had been worried. Yet still, he couldn't and wouldn't lose heart in the face of these monsters. He, and everyone else, had worked so hard to rise up and become masters, return to the realm of light, and defeat No Heart. There was nothing that would stop Stratos now, and if he had to kill every single heartless in the realm of darkness to escape it, then so be it.

As he was mentally readying himself to take on this wave, however, what appeared to be a miracle happened. Out of nowhere, someone that Stratos had not seen since the beginning of his journey but recognized all too well appeared. "Mizu?!" The boy called out, in great surprise. When last he saw her, she had been taken by Nequa and it was a pretty big toss up as to what her fate was. Yet, here the small girl was in the realm of darkness, raring to fight. Not only was she here, but a collection of other individuals that Stratos didn't recognize at a glance were there as well. He wasn't quite sure what was going on, who these people were, and why they and Mizu were all in the Realm of Darkness, ready to help out, but he was not about to look a gift horse in the mouth. Feeling reinvigorated, his spirits escalating as he saw the giant Ice Golem named Sprinkles grab at and destroy two of the large dark side heartless. Looking at the ice golem, Stratos remembered that the Blizzagolem that he first saw was created by Mizu, and while he could never hope to create something as large as Sprinkles currently was, he knew he had the basic theory down for it now. Recalling how the order member had summoned them and how Beuce in their most recent fight had, the boy started to focus inward, as his body became enveloped in a light blue light. When it had stopped glowing, the boy's jacket had become much longer and a light blue to match the light that was over him. It had an isignia of a flame, a lightning bolt and a snowflake all in a triangle, on the back of his long jacket. Curiously, though, he didn't seem to have a keyblade.

"Well, if they can, no reason I can't." After assuring himself of this, the boy began to channel magic power through him, the air suddenly becoming much colder as the magic around him started to flow. A large spell circle formed, and as it did the flowing magic gathered into the boy's hand. Slamming it down onto the ground, the circle glowed much more intensely and as it did the chilled air started to flow much faster. All centering on a single point in front of him, Stratos shouted, "Blizzagolem!" With that, the cold air became crystals of ice and one after another continued to form what appeared to be a large bipedal ice sculpture. When all was said and done, a golem made of snow and ice held together by raw magical power was formed, towering over the boy. "Alright, who's ready for round 3 now?" After asking his comrades, the boy didn't really wait for an answer as he pointed at the wave of heartless. "Alright Snowflake. Go show 'em what for." The golem clapped its hands together, before charging into the wave of heartless. With the magic in its hands beginning to glow more intensely, the already frigid air crystallizing even further, the golem had formed a large chunk of ice in its hand. Shot-putting the sphere of magical ice, it tossed it with great force towards the wave. As it was airborne, the first thing it had managed to hit was the dark balls, beginning to tear through the never ending swarm. The ball didn't get that far, as the mass of dark balls had broken the sphere, yet the damage was very clearly done as the attack had finished. Whistling, Stratos merely said, "that's a nice trick you got there."

Aeira watched as the ice golems started to populate the battlefield, flatly saying, "well, that's a neat trick." Punching her fists together, the girl summoned her gauntlets onto her hand, and looked towards the wave. While she wanted to go punch Uniform very badly, she didn't want to have to deal with an army of heartless at the same time. Besides, she was more than likely to just get in the way of it all anyway. Looking to everyone else, Aeira merely said, "I'm going now," and without a word of confirmation or acknowledgement, she rushed off into the fight fists tearing into some nearby neo shadows.

When the heartless had been cleared out, Kel took that as his chance to finally catch a breath. The armor that had formed out of nowhere through darkness had chipped away gradually before it had fallen off him completely. It was odd being back in his regular attire, as in no special abilities from any job of sorts. He was still dressed in his new outfit that he had picked up back in Shibuya before all this had started. The break was short lived as another wave of heartless was rapidly approaching them. Now that that the armor was gone, Kel was able to regain more of his strength and stood up to face the oncoming threat. Just as he had done this they were joined by help of sort, answering Luna's stress induced request. Seeing Karina among the group was surprising, but to see Mizu as well was a much greater shock. There was relief in knowing that she was alright. Kel had to make a quick dodge of a heartless's attack while he was distracted by this. Unsurprisingly it was another Invisible that had taken this chance to attack him as well as a small horde of lesser heartless. By this point Kel was starting to think that he had either done something to these Invisible, besides constantly beating them, for them to have it out for them as much as they did or they just wanted him dead for no reason. The latter option reminded him too much of Nequa and all of the misfortune that she brought upon him. The invisible had struck at him once again and Kel blocked the blow instead of dodging it. He remained firmly planted in his stance with his keyblade blocking the attack as a white hooded cowl formed around his him. His attire had taken color change to black, finalizing his change into the soldier job which gave him an extra burst of strength. Exactly what was needed to push back the Invisible that had attack him. The heartless came crashing down with a thud and lost its grip on it sword that was later stabbed into the ground. From there Kel was quick to go in and grab the sword. The mighty blade was hefted onto his back just as another group of Invisibles moved in for the attack. One mighty swing was all it took to cut through those three heartless with ease and a simply toss did away with the Invisible that he had stolen the blade from in the first place. The heartless watched as its own sword came crashing down upon it, right on its head. Despite it being a while since he's been in this form, everything was still coming to him naturally. A good thing for sure despite the only real issue would be getting use to going from two keyblades back to one, but that cycle already occurred when he had on the armor. When the four darkballs had flown down towards him, Kel was quick dodge out of the way of their attack then noticed that they were grouped together still. That would be a mistake on their part for as his keyblade glowed in a golden light, Kel charged in and struck with a devastating three his attack or 'Cross-Slash' on them.

Landing right in the middle of another battle field, Vallus took a look around to get a grasps on the situation they had literally jumped into. Large numbers of heartless and a smaller group of people using keyblades were fighting them off. Though he was surprised to see Uniform him and couple help but to smirk at the replacement for the arm that he had taken off himself. He would have loved to remove that one as well, but there were slightly more pressing matters to attend to. Perplexed by the new comer, two nearby invisible had chosen to attack him. A fool hearty effort on their part, for much like the last time an Invisible had tried to attack Vallus from behind, they were frozen as he had frozen time with ease. Moments for Vallus, but an eternity for the heartless later and everything resumed with the head of the heartless being gone completely and removed with dark smoke vanishing in the air as their bodies soon followed suit. "Some people never learn." Vallus couldn't deny one thing though, here he would be able to get more of a workout.

After the blizzagolem had helped kick start the fight against the new wave of heartless, Stratos said, "alright Snowflake, get going and deal with the lot of them." The golem merely nodded at the boy's command, getting ready for yet another leg of the fight. Charging forward, the creature seemed to want to fight the heartless head on. Stratos didn't exactly mean for that to happen, thinking it would be better off just continuing to lop the large ice chunk spells, yet he was fairly certain that it was fine as it was. The whole commanding a golem thing was a new experience for him, and he wasn't entirely sure how to make it follow his orders better. Yet all the same, he was fairly certain things were working out. This was only punctuated as the golem seemed to bend down, seeming to get ready to put force into his magical snow ice legs. Leaping upward into the air, the golem came down onto the ground with a mighty crash, unleashing a burst of frigid wind towards the surrounding heartless, blowing them back. "Yeah, it'll probably be fine." Stratos seemed to try and assure himself of this, as he was about to get ready to go and fight the heartless himself. Extending out his hand, though, he seemed to have trouble manifesting his keyblade. While that was odd, what he found even odder was as he extended his hand out, he attempted to cast a spell. As nothing happened, Stratos was starting to think that there was something restricting him from actually fighting, likely the power of the summoner he was using right now. "Oh, this is probably going to be a problem." As the boy came to this realization, he figured he would have to swap back out of this form soon. Though, if he did, would the golem go away? Not wanting to test theory out, the boy merely stood back, and watched as the golem went to do its work.

With hands covered in ice crystals, the blizzagolem Snowflake began to punch towards the ground, aiming at a collection of neo shadows. While some of them sunk into the ground and others jumped away, some were not as lucky. With 3 of them being unable to evade the attack, the icy fist merely crushed the neo shadows turning them back into their natural black smoke, covered in frigid crystalline air. Being in the thick of things, though, made it quite a bit difficult for the blizzagolem to actually fight. The neo shadows that weren't being attacked began to charge at the golem, leaping off the ground and onto its back. As their claws suck into its body, however, the crystalline being merely flexed its back, releasing a frigid burst of magic from is back into those that had attacked from behind. Their bodies being instantly covered in ice, the offending neo shadows had dropped to the ground, and with a heavy thud shattered against the ground. Charging its hand with more frigid ice magic, the blizzagolem formed a claw of ice over its hand, sweeping downward at the creatures of darkness. Those that were unable to move out of the way in time were swept up by the claw, freezing from the frigid chill of the blizzagolem's ice. As their icy forms were torn into by the golem's claw, they two were rended and destroyed. With one last sweeping punch, the blizzagolem punched downward with its icy fist, crashing its appendage into the ground, releasing spikes of ice from the point of impact that fired off at the surrounding neo shadows.

Aeira continued to move her way through the swarm of neo shadows. As one of the clawed creatures tried to leap at the girl, she merely clenched her fists and let loose a powerful uppercut into the head of the creature. As the fist connected, the heartless was instantly destroyed. With A few more coming towards her, the girl merely cracked her knuckles, taking in a deep breath as she took a readied stance at towards the heartless. All of them had charged in the same direction, all of which began to leap at her with their claws. One after the other, the girl managed to maneuver her body to dodge the attack, letting loose a single targeted punch into the head of the heartless. Each time, she managed to evade the attacks, felling the neo shadows in a single blow, returning them back to the darkness from whence they came.

He had to speed things up when it came to this fight. The problem was he was not sure how to do that. He had no clue where the others were at. Black smoke filled the sky at this point. He was sure that this had something to do with all of the spells going off. The island had to be bigger then he first thought because of the amount of other people he had seen was close to zero. He could feel himself tiring out. The thing was that he had to keep pushing forward. If he gave up now they would lose. After this battle was over he knew he was going to have to take a long rest. There were a few heartless that were around him. It looked like it might be over. That said he knew that this was to good to be true to be over this fast. Another wave of heartless showed up. Oh boy he thought. This was going to be fun, not. He wanted to put a end to uniforms endless heartless battle. Until he could get over to uniform he was going to have to put up with the endless heartless. It had seemed that uniform had an almost never ending supply of heartless. There was a clearing now so he could see out into the battlefield. Other then the smoke in the sky there was not much to see. A voice could be heard and it said, 'You're the weak one!' Looking around he spotted a women who stood with a rabbit along with other people. He knew who the women was but not the others. Oh boy something else to fight he thought. This was just what he need something else to fight other then the heartless. He soon realized that this new group of people and a rabbit were not coming to fight against them but the heartless. As soon as they showed up many of the people raced off to fight the heartless. Well he was not about to complain about the new help. The issue he had come across was how they got here. As far as he could tell the new people just came out of nowhere. It was not really anything new tho. Everything so far seemed to happen randomly. It was ether that or things just appeared out of nowhere.

Two Darksides heartless had showed up. Well this was not good. That was when someone summoned a giant ice colossus which they named Sprinkles. Soon the two darkside heartless were taken care of, in fact in was in a manner of seconds. He had to remember no to get on the bad side of someone later. Soon invisible heartless came in around him. Today was not his day. Welp. He positioned himself, to face the Invisible heartless that were waiting. If he could deal with as many as possible now it would be good. There were even more heartless then before. While the last wave of heartless had definitely been difficult to deal with, this one was something on a completely different scale. A swarm of darkness as far as the eye could see, similar in mass to the one that they had just fought yet entirely different in composition. Many different heartless seemed to rush him at once. First was a neoshadow heartless, which took him by surprise and was no won top of him. He was sure that if he did not do something quick the neoshadow heartless would kill him. He was able to move his arm slightly and stabbed the neoshaow in the eye with his weapon.

Beuce looked on as yet another massive horde of heartless pressed forward at them. The waves seemed to be ever increasing in difficulty, and while they weren't at the point of being overwhelmed yet, he could sense that they wouldn't last too much longer. Not to mention, this wave didn't contain a single regular shadow. A sure sign that things were picking up. Then, he heard a loud shout from a familiar voice. Looking over, he saw Karina, Mizu, and what seemed like the team Lea had taken her to put her on. A smile broke out on his face. She certainly seemed to be doing well for herself since she'd left them. Not only that, Mizu was with them. He hadn't the faintest idea what had happened to her since she was taken by Nequa, but she was alright now. Given the size of "sprinkles" the golem, better than alright. He'd managed to learn the spell for summoning Golems, but he had clearly far from mastered it. The air grew even colder as he looked over to see a second golem, this one made by Stratos.

With a Zantetsuken through a few neoshadows, he made his way over to the boy. He'd apparently sent his golem off to charge into the horde directly, so he'd need someone to watch his back as that job didn't leave much in the way of personal combat. As soon as he reached him though, he dropped out of his data form. Evidently, unlike jobs, those came with time restrictions. It made sense, given that they didn't even seem to come with any inherent drawbacks like jobs did. Nevertheless, he didn't waste much time thinking on it and directed his attention to Stratos."Yo. What do you say after we get back to the realm of light, we hit her up and have her teach us how to do that?" He said, motioning his head to Sprinkles the Blizzagolem. "Though, first we need to actually get out of here. You keep doing what you do. I'll watch your back." He said, readying his blade. Normally, when he transformed into a job, he was enveloped in a red and blue light, and whichever attribute the job resonated with the most then engulfed the other. If the job was focused on duality such as ranger, the both grew bright. This time however, there was no light. Instead, a geyser of darkness erupted from the ground beneath him, leaving only a silhouette as his clothing shifted to armor.

When the geyser of darkness subsided, Beuce was now far more well armored, and his clothing's color scheme had changed almost entirely to black. An air of darkness radiated from around him, but as an Invisible neared, he had yet another power to unlock. "Blade" He said, reawakening his aura of swordsmanship. He hadn't ever actually fought one of these before, but he'd seen other struggle with them, so he assumed they were they strongest of the bunch outside of the enormous ones. The invisible slashed downward but Beuce managed to parry it with peerless bladework and jumped forward, kicking off the face of the muscular heartless with angel-like features. He threw he keyblade in the same Javelin style he had been to defeat the other heartless, but the invisible simply caught it in its hand by the blade. There was a slight stream of smoke and inky darkness coming from its hand, indicating that it had been injured by it, but it was on the whole still fine. Beuce launched a blast of dark thunder, traveling through the keyblade and destroying the invisible. He'd managed to beat it, but that was certainly concerning.

After he stabed the neoshadow heartless in the eye it seemed to moved backwards slightly. He then managed to kick the neoshadow off of him and the neoshaow heartless landed a few feet away. That was a close battle to close of a battle. The waves of heartless seemed to be increasing in difficulty and he was not sure what to think about that. It was clear that uniform wanted to tire them out more. While he was close to the point of being overwhelmed at any moment. As countless heartless were around him. It was a sure sign of things to come he was sure. Things were picking up that much was clear. He looked back over to the neoshadow heartless he had moments ago kick off of himself. The neoshadow heartless had one of its hand over one of its eyes, which he had stuck his weapon in moments ago. It was clear that the neoshadow heartless was bin some pain. The neoshadow heartless had a look it its one good eye like he was not going to forget what happened. Hay, the neoshadow heartless moments ago just tried to kill him. He starred looking around and the wave of heartless was like a wave of darkness. As he was looking around, a group of three neoshadow heartless had come up behind him. He felt something behind him. He then turned around and immediately jumped back. He sighed and then grabbed his weapon tighter and took down the three neoshadow heartless. He looked around for any more heartless that were headed toward him. There were still many that surrounded him. There seemed to be no time for rest. These neoshaodw heartless seemed to acknowledge that there was no way they were going to be able to beat him with pack tactics as there were not that many around him at the moment. That said he knew that at any moment more neoshaodw heartless could show up.

He stood there for a moment surrounded by a unknown amount of heartless. He could not even make out what heartless was what. The heartless were more or less one big wave. It was like a sea of blackness. After cutting through the last swath of heartless, he looked around the horde of shadows that seemed to be towards him more now. Stepping forward, slightly the heartless instinctively continued to come towards him. Only to eventually halt a few feet away. They were getting smarter. As they continued walking towards him, the halted horde of shadows began to charge at him all at once. This was not good. He tighten his grip on his makeshift knife he was never one for short range combat or hand to hand but he had to learn quick if he wanted to live. The mere flourish of his weapon did not seem to do much of anything. The heartless pounced towards him. He seemed to be suddenly swallowed in a dome of shadow and claw. The yellow eyes of the shadows were no longer visible with how tightly packed. He managed to take out a few with his makeshift knife which gave him enough room to breathe and fight his own way. With already a few down it might be easier. He slightly wondered how he was still alive. There was no time to think about that now tho. He had to act. The other heartless then recoiled from his last attack. If they could feel he would say that they were almost repulsed by the shear force he just showed and now they did not seems at ready to come at him. He was able to take out the few that were close to him.

Stratos continued to sit back, well more stand back, as his ice golem continued to make its way through the swarm of heartless. He wasn't quit sure how to feel about the whole thing at the moment, between feeling very useful and very useless. On the one hand, the blizzagolem was definitely a powerful force in of itself, and could fight and destroy the heartless about as well as Stratos could. And it wasn't as though maintaining the summon itself was an effortless process, having to constantly maintain focus and a small supply of mana into the creature to both sustain its existence and keep it attacking. Yet all the same, he was just kind of standing around, unable to actually fight anything. He didn't have a weapon to use, he didn't have magic to cast and it wasn't like his body was able to unleash the power of skill commands like it would be able to during his time in the monk job power. As such, he was just kind of standing there, helpless to do anything about any of the heartless that had made their way towards them. Which speaking of such was only further punctuated by the sudden arrival of a group of neo shadows trying to get the pounce on him. Rolling out of the way, Stratos didn't quite know what to do about the creatures, as Snowflake was quite far away, but he didn't have to as the heartless were instantly slain by Beuce, appearing out of seemingly nowhere.

As the man had mentioned being taught from Mizu about creating something to the affect of Sprinkles, Stratos merely looked in awe of the rampaging ice golem. "Well, I've been making leaps and bounds in terms of progress and even I think that's a bit out of my league. Though, curious to see what other tricks the mage of the order has up her sleeves." As Beuce remarked that he'd give him cover, Stratos nodded to the man, saying, "thanks for the assist." With that, he turned his attention back to the golem, which continued to rampage through the neo shadows. One after the other, the neo shadows tried to overpower the blizzagolem but they were met with little success. Crashing its hands together, it let loose a burst of frigid magic around it, destroying the heartless surrounding it. Charging its fist with magic, the golem punched into the crowd, letting loose a burst of ice magic that exploded, freezing and slaying even more neo shadows that were in the vicinity.

Aeira was not deterred by the coming neo shadows. These creatures were fast and plentiful, but to the surprise of the heartless she was equally as fast and more than strong enough to deal with them. As one lunged at her, claw extended, the girl stepped forward and to the side. Dodging the attack, she then grabbed the arm of the neo shadow, beginning to swing the heartless around like she was winding up for something. As more heartless were approaching, she launched the creature at the others at high speeds, the neo shadows colliding with each other as they did, the one colliding and the ones being collided into bursting on impact. While some of them were surprised by this, the girl was unrelenting in her own pressure, actively running at the heartless. With fists clenched, she began punching one after the other, a calm and measured expression on her face, as each of her hits dealt a fatal blow to the heartless. After slaying yet another few neo shadows, Aeira looked at the horde and merely said, "hm. There's a lot of these."

Luna looked over and saw the man summon even more heartless. Her eyes widen at the amount he had summoned this time. "Will this ever end?" Aislinn and Beuce had ran back into the heat of battle. The battlefield had been revived once more as the heartless ran onto the field once again. She sighed and then grabbed her blade once more. "Then fine so be it!" She immediately used her Blizzaga spell and created a pathway of ice before recreating her ice skates. She jumped onto the ice and skated down the path. At the end of the ice path, two neoshadows had slipped as the ice was casted under their feet. She raced down the path and cut through both neoshadows. She stopped as soon as they were both eliminated. She turned around and saw Oswald running onto the field. "Oswald? Karina??? What in the world?" Before she could look over any further, two more neoshadows had ran up to her. She immediately blocked both attacks from them. She then struck back and sliced through both of them with ease.

She lowered her blade and looked around. However, that didn't last long as two neoshadows had kicked her in her back. Luna fell onto the ground and looked up to see four others including the two that had attacked her. She tried to get up but it was as if her body was frozen. It didn't listen to what her mind was saying. Luna immediately grabbed her necklace as fear had started to settle in. No....Is this....Is this where I die?? No.....There's still stuff I need to do...People I need to see...I-I.....I don't want to die..... Not before I find you again....Just once more...Koa....She closed her eyes and clenched her necklace tightly as she screamed out. "Koa!!!!!!!!"







Koa ran along with the others as they headed over to provide backup. As they reached their destination, he was shocked over how many heartless there were on the battlefield. "My god.....How can there be so many heartless?!" He watched as the others went into battle. He looked over at the battlefield to see where he would need to go. Before he could think any further, he heard a voice call out his name. A voice that sounded oh-so familiar to him. A voice he had not heard in ages. He quickly turned around and what he saw made his eyes widen even more. "Koa!!!!!" His bride-to-be in danger, surrounded by six neoshadows. His mind was almost completely blank as he ran over to her. The only thing that was on his mind was saving her. Luna....Can it really be?.....Luna... He immediately grabbed the metal in his pocket and launched himself over to where she was. "Luna!!!!!" Koa landed and stabbed through two of the six neoshadows. The two heartless had disappeared immediately. He stood in front of her as he was readying his spear for another attack.

Luna kept clinging onto her necklace and waited for the neoshadows to strike. She had then heard a voice call out her name. "Luna!!!!!" She immediately opened her eyes and there, standing in front of her was the one she had been longing to see again, her groom-to-be. "K-Koa?!?!?" Her eyes were as wide as saucers over the sight that was in front of her. Koa had continued to attack the other four neoshadows that were drawing closer to the two. One-by-one, they had all fallen. Koa attacked until the group of six was no more. Luna slowly got back onto her feet, still holding onto her necklace. Tears had begun to fill her eyes, threatening to spill over. Koa lowered his spear and immediately turned around. Silence had passed through the two. Nothing had been said until Koa broke the silence. He had chosen his words carefully and then spoke. "Lunala..." He took a few steps toward her before placing a hand on her cheek. "This isn't a dream. You.....You're really here. No hallucinations or voices in my head.....Mea principesa." Tears had streamed down her face. "Koa!!" Luna immediately hugged him while her tears were still streaming down. Koa rested a hand on her head before wrapping both arms around her. After a few moments, the two pulled apart with smiles on their faces. Koa wiped away the tears on her face while Luna wiped away the tears on his face. However, it was too soon to relax.

Nine more neoshadows had surrounded them. The two immediately grabbed their weapons before pressing their backs against the other. "I guess we'll have to save the reunion of later don't we?" Koa spoke out as he looked at the heartless. "I've been waiting for this day for two years. I'm not going to let these heartless interrupt this moment!" Luna answered as she held onto her keyblade. As if on cue, the neoshadows sprung into action. The two had begun attack the group of nine. Koa had ran his spear through the heartless as Luna cut through them with her blade. It wasn't before long when the group of heartless had disappeared. "Two years....So that's how long it's been. I thought it was shorter than that but judging from how you look...I guess I was wrong." Luna laughed a bit before smiling. "A lot has changed but I'm really happy to see you again." Koa nodded as the two smiled at each other.

Invisible heartless or neoshadow heartless it did not matter he had to take out both at some point. The battlefield as a huge horde of heartless and sooner or later more heartless would come his way. The one neoshadow heartless from before was still covering its left eye. The neoshadow heartless was not going to give up. He let out a sigh. Well it was going to be one long battle fighting this neoshadow heartless. For a moment a opening opened up from the heartless that surrounded him. For a moment he thought he saw someone a person. It was ether a person or the countless waves of heartless it was hard to tell. One moment whoever it was was there and the next they were gone. If this was indeed a heartless they looked person shaped more so then a normal heartless. If he did not know better he would say that this person had on a black coat with a hood over there head. weather if it was a person or not he was not going to find out anytime soon. No sooner had the opening of the heartless had opened then it closed shortly after blocking his view from said person or heartless. He did not know if he was seeing thing or not. He could be so tired that may he thought he saw something that was there. Sooner or later he would be pushed past his limits. He was felling the massive heartless battle was just beginning yet again. To make matters worse, another darkball heartless had floated its way over to where hr was. Surprisingly none of the heartless had made an another move to attack him again yet. This was despite clearly having the numbers advantage against him. Yes he did just prove time and time again that he was not going down without a fight. It was likely that their strongest force out of all of them was there number not the strength of one heartless but one of many. Him fight or they being gone for good would only last so long. Who made it longer it was hard to say at this point.

This one heartless was clearly sporting a cocky look on its face as it looked down upon him. Not to mentioned that it was had floated down and stared him down from its higher position. This heartless was challenging him wasn't it. It had a expressions on its face that said all of this. He would have been all to happy to take this darkball out. To take it in this challenge seeing as it clearly wanted it, but the moment he took a single step forward a good five more dark balls joined in. He let out a sigh. This battle seemed like it was never going to end. It was the battle that went on and on. The never ending battle fighting the heartless. It may have been brief, but still long enough for him to pick up another piece of bark and use that as his new weapon seeing at the last makeshift knife was long gone. He was able to deliver a devastating lunch to one more of the dark balls heartless and sending it flying back into the crowd in a fiery explosion. He was not sure why some of these darkball heartless were exploding but he was going to try and not question it. Gripping his wepond tighter, the boy was ready to make another run at the darkball heartless swarm that was ready to attack him. It had appeared that he somehow had managed to get the darkbal heartless to slow down. They were slowed down for now but he knew that they would attack soon.
