Kingdom Hearts: Struggle For Earth

"Paige...."Valeire put down Jeffrey and picked up Paige, walking back to the lobby.

"Ri, you okay?"Sora was groomin Riku when he got to the lobby. "Yeah, the babys fine. Your lucky that shadow ball didn't affect her."Riku whispered. "You're being put on bed rest for now. Rest up for the final match."Sora said, putting Riku in his pokeball. "I thought you were using Kairi for the final match."Valerie said. "Well Rikus already pumped up. Might as well use him."Sora shrugged.

"Don't forget that Riku can't overdo himself in his condition."Valerie said. "I know.... I'll be careful."Sora said.

 

Jeffrey said nothing. He was worried about Eden.

 

Eden shook her head. "What? Where am I?" Laboramon was long gone, looking for Valerie to warn her.

 

"I hope Edens okay..."Sora said, letting Kairi out of her pokeball. "Go watch me kick butt in the finals Kai."Sora grinned. "Good luck!"Kairi said. "We'll be watching in the audience."Valerie said, smiling. "Now I'm changing out of this outfit."she went off to change.

 

Eden looked around, noticing blood lined on the floor. " What's that?"

 

"Alright coordinators. Head to the stage for the final round!"The announcer said. "Lets kick butt Riku."Sora grinned, heading to the stage. "Win the ribbon, Sora!"Valerie yelled from the audience. Sora was up against the girl with the Piplup from earlier. "C'mon Riku! This'll be a piece of cake!"Sora grinned. Riku came out of his pokeball, a small smirk on his face.

 

"Larvitar! Go get them!" Jeffrey yelled.

 

Eden looked at the blood, confused. She looked at it then a memory... She cringed. "SuSuan? Is that my name?"

 

"Begin!"The announcer said. "Piplup, use bubblbeam!"The Piplup shot a bubblebeam at Riku. "Ice beam Riku!"Sora said. Riku shot an ice beam and popped the bubble beam, turning it into sparkles. "Now jump into the air and use blizzard!"Sora said. Riku jumped into the air and used blizzard to turn the area into a ice area. He even froze the water a bit. "Now use Iron tail on the ice!"Sora said. Riku used Iron tail and shot ice shards at Piplup.

"Break the ice with peck, piplup!"The girl said. Piplup hit the ice shards with peck, breaking the ice and turning it into glitter. Sora smiled. Suddenly Riku ran up to Piplup and struck it with Iron tail, sending it into the water.

 

Eden tasted the blood, clueless. "Tastes kinda good..."

 

Riku waited patiently for the Piplup to surface. "Piplup, use whirpool!"the girl sai. Piplup came out of the water and fored a whirpool, sending it to Riku. "Dodge it R-"Before Sora could finish Riku got caught in the whirpool. He tried to break loose but failed. The whirpool vanished, leaving Riku soaking wet. Riku shook the water off. "Use peck!"Piplup charged at Riku with peck. "Dodge and use Blizzard!"Sora said.Riku jumped above Piplup and shot it with ice beam, sending it into the air.

"Now hit it with Iron tail!"Riku jumped onto one of the icy spikes he made and jumped into the air, striking Piplup with Iron tail and sendig it onto the ice.

 

Eden's hair was longer, with park purple highlights, and her eyes were a venom yellow. She gave an evil crooked smile, and off to hunt. She left behind her turquoise pouch.

 

Time was almost up. "Piplup use whirlpool!"The Piplup again fired whirlpool. "Send it back with Iron tail!"Sora said. Riku hit it with Iron tail to try and send it back but got caught again. When h got out of the whirpool he was exhausted. He gasped, feeling like he was gonna faint. He winced, taking deep breaths. "Riku...?"Sora looked at Riku concerned.

Riku did his best to keep fighting, but his knees were shaking. "Riku use Ice beam!"Sora said. Riku fired and ice beam but missed completely. He tried another ice beam and hit Piplup. Piplup dodged. Riku groaned as his vision blurred. He winced in pain and collapsed. "Riku!"Sora gasped. "Thats it! The winner is-"The announer stopped as Riku slowly got up. "Absol!"Riku stood for a second, but then collapsed again.

"The winner of the final round is Dawn!"The announcer said. Sora came up to Riku. "You pushed yourself too hard Ri.... Get some rest."Sora put Riku in his pokeball and left to the lobby.

 

Eden looked around, smiling. Who is my victim?
~~~
Paige walked up onto the middle of the stage, all in smiles.

 

Jeffrey walked up to Sora. "You and Ri did great."

 

Riku came out of his pokeball, still alittle weak. "Sora, I'm fine..."he said. "N you're not Ri."Valerie said, rubbing Rikus stomach. "Hey! Hands off!"Riku growled. Valerie pulled away. "Yeesh, moody much?"she asked.

 

Eden looked around, her eyes scanning... She wasn't the Eden you knew anymore. SuSuan... "S.S."

 

"Lets go to the gummi ship!"Sora said. "Okay, then we're off to the next world!"Valerie said.

 

Laboramon was now a Luxaray and heading off to find Valerie.

 

Valerie took Jeffrey and headed off to find the gummi ship. Sora followed.
