Illiana kept eating her omurice as Torrin explained the origin of his new clothes. He then half-jokingly expressed his discomfort over his new nickname. "Oh please. You'll be fine General Emo....My bad, Torrin. Better?" She chuckled as she took one of her last sips of wine. Torrin had then looked over to Enzo. He decided to fill him in on everything that they knew so far. Illiana continued to eat the rest of her breakfast. Hearing of the Light Chaser's plan and its repercussions, her worry over her dear little brother grew. Koa....Why can't you see the consequences of his plan? Open your eyes.....Please. Before it's too late...Illiana closed her eyes as she finished her breakfast. "Anyway...what's up Illiana? Got a reason you wandered this way?" Illiana looked up as Torrin had addressed the girl. She thought about it for a moment before remembering her true reason. "As fun as our little rare chitchat is, unfortunately for you I do have an actual reason. Though we are missing someone." Illiana finished her glass before looking around. She felt something soft rubbing against her. She looked down at her side and saw Nini. "Found her. Alright we're good." She picked up the cat and her dishes. She walked over to Enzo with said dishes. "I'm borrowing Torrin for a bit. Mind bringing these dishes to the kitchen? Thanks." She placed the dishes in Enzo's hand before turning to Torrin. She pointed to him before pointing to the cat. "You two....You're gonna be following me for a bit? Cool? Great." Without leaving time for Torrin to respond, Illiana started to walk ahead of Torrin with Nini in her hands. She stopped before turning back to the young man. "Well? You coming or what?"
Luna kept looking around the grotto until Beuce came back inside warning the group of Triton's arrival. Ariel kept gushing over the statue. Luna chuckled a little at the display in front of her. She thought it was pretty cute. Luna smiled as Ariel continued to gush over the human that inspired the statue. Aux was about to head when Triton had appeared in the grotto. Luna turned around and saw Ariel rushing to cover everything in sight. Triton was absolutely livid when he saw the statue. Ariel and the King had a heated argument. As Triton raised his trident, Luna immediately pull Ariel away from danger. "Ariel! Look out!!" She covered her as the statue was smashed into tiny pieces. Ariel's face was one of shock and sadness. Triton had an immediate look of regret. Ariel had demanded to be left in peace. Luna frowned but nodded her head. She and the others exited the grotto. Triton turned to the group before addressing them. "And you just don't fit in it. The keyhole is safe and so is my daughter. I can't jeopardize that by having you here... So you have to leave. There is no room in my ocean for you or your keys. Flounder will lead you to the ocean's border." The girl nodded her head. "Your Majesty.....If I may be so bold as to say, it would really help if you talk to her. Just the two of you. Not as the King but as her father. I think she needs you now more than ever. Especially at her age. Many pardons, your highness." Luna bowed her head as she followed Flounder and the others. Luna kept swimming along with the others. Karina immediately asked the group what their next move was. Luna then stopped before looking back. "I...I...." She didn't want to leave Ariel and Triton with the way things were going between them. "I can't leave this world like it is right now. Knowing that there's still tension in the sea....and especially between those two.....I...I'm going back....I'm sorry." Luna bowed her head before immediately swimming back.
Illiana continued to walk toward the entrance leading outside. On her way there, she walked by Take as he kept going. Kid must be in a rush or something. Hmm...Illiana kept walking until she walked outside. She saw Torrin and Enzo discussing something. She couldn't tell what they were talking about but she just sat down on some steps and placed down her glass right beside her. She began to dig right into her breakfast. As she ate, she looked over to the two as they were discussing something to do with Torrin's jacket. "When did you get some new threads Torri?" She took another spoonful of her omelet and rice as she asked Torrin. She yawned a little bit before taking a sip of her wine. "Oh. You're here too ummm Enflo or whatever your name is." She scratched her head before taking another spoonful of her omurice. She continued eating her breakfast before striking up another topic. "Anyway. You guys get any of your daily dose of beauty sleep?" Illiana took a sip of her wine after she asked her question. "By the way, Tinarah is making breakfast in the kitchen if you want any if you already haven't eaten." She pointed her thumb behind her, pointing back inside.
Illiana took her hands off the piano before lifting up her glass and walking up to a column, leading outside. She leaned against the column, looking at the moonlight while sipping her white wine. She sat down leaning against the column until the calling of sleep beckoned her. Illiana reached into her pocket, holding a pen before falling asleep. Spoiler: Episode Illiana: Fragment 4 - Epsilon Strike Dried land surrounded both armies, as if the lands were a wasteland itself. A fierce battle waged upon that land. Warriors against warriors. The battle raged on for what felt like several years but had been going on for nearly two days. Bodies of fallen soldiers were scattered across that god-forsaken land. Amidst the bodies and the earth beneath them, Illiana was standing along with the rest of squad. “We gotta keep fighting!! This kingdom will not fall to the likes of those who stand fight in the name of darkness!” She ran with the rest of her squad into battle, ready to fight for her people. The battle raged on for hours and hours without end. Illiana continued to fight and continued to support her squadron as their morale was getting low. “Keep pressing onwards!! They’re practically on their knees!! We can win this battle!!” Her comrades and other soldiers around cheered in unison before marching back into battle, feeling revitalized. Magic had been casted back and forth, offensive and defensive alike. Bodies upon bodies scattered across the battlefield. It felt as if the battle would never end. Illiana barked out orders to her squad. “They’re thinning in numbers!!! All units of Drago Squadron……..Commence Operation: Epsilon!!!!” The rest of her squad nodded their head as they scattered into formation, gathering the rest of the opposing soldiers in one area. The thirteen soldiers had circled around the area. They all lifted one hand up as lightning gathered around their fingertips. Dark clouds had started forming within the area once Illiana gave the signal. All thirteen pointed their hands at the opposing army, shocking all of them at once. One by one, they all fell down. Illiana looked at her comrades and smiled. “Victory is ours!!!” The army rejoiced all at once. Unbeknownst to them, the dark clouds still lingered around them. As the were cheering, thunder had struck the ground. “Whoa!!!” “What’s happening?” “Why are those clouds still here?!” Illiana told the army to evacuated and take the opposing soldiers that were still breathing, off the battlefield. She did her best to evacuate everyone off the battlefield while thunder and lightning were still striking the ground. As she escorted the last soldier off the field, she looked around for anyone else. Before she could leave the battlefield, she saw someone in the distance and it looked as if they were smirking. “Who’s there?! Show yourself!!” “Illiana!!!” Illiana’s attention had been pulled away as she looked back at her teammates. She looked up and saw thunder about to strike down on her. It was as if her body wouldn’t listen to what her mind was telling it to do. A bright flash filled her eyes as she heard in the distance. “Illiana!!! Look out!!!!” The light of dawn had shined its way down onto Illiana's eyes. Her eyes shot wide opened and her breathing had accelerated before feeling something soft on her chest. She looked down and saw Nini. "Are you trying to give me a heart attack or something?" She sighed as she petted the cat's head. She looked out at the sky as the cat started purring. "Why was that day in dreams?...." She sighed before picking up her glass, seeing that she still had some leftover from last night. Illiana looked back at Nini. "I suppose you're suppose to be some kind of messenger?" Illiana's stomach growled a bit. Nini got off her chest as the girl stood up. "When you get the chance, find me again. I got something to show you later." Shepetted the cat once more before she walked off sipping her wine. She grabbed a silk robe out of her umbrella. Illiana put it on and tied it as she walked to the kitchen. As she entered the kitchen, she saw Tinarah, Qamar, Boreas, and Choma. She took a sip of her wine before grabbing herself a couple of pots. "If you don't mind, I'm having something else for breakfast. No offense to you. Just wanted a dish from home." She looked over to Tinarah as she ruffled her hair. "Thanks though." She grabbed some eggs and a cup of rice. She got a fire on the stove started and began making her breakfast. After some time had passed, Illiana took out a plate and began plating her rice. Once her rice was plated, she grabbed the omelet she made and placed it on top. Illiana grabbed a small knife and cut the omelet in half, causing the omelet to unfold on top of the rice, surrounding it. "Alright. All done." She grabbed a spoon before picking up her plate. She took another sip before raising it to the others as if to say 'Hello' and 'Later' as she walked out of the room. Illiana exited out of the kitchen ans headed toward outside.

Illiana walked on and on until she saw the sun slowly go down. "The last hour of sun is surprisingly the most eye-catching time.....comforting almost...." Illiana kept staring at the sunset for a bit before continuing on. She kept walking in search of the field and came across a lake. The way the stars were reflecting off the water made Illiana almost speechless. She kept looking at the lake before walking on again. The light of the moon was bright enough to help her find exactly what she was looking for. A field of flowers. "Whoa...." The sight in front of her had been covered with white poppy flowers and pink lilies. She walked through the field and started to pick some of them up. "This should be good for the graves." After some time, she had gathered enough flowers and started to head back. She stopped before looking back. "One day...you'll see this field too...little brother..." She lowered her eyes before walking back. After some time, she finally made it back to the graves. "This should suffice for you guys." She walked over to Dentro's grave last and place the flowers. Illiana crouched down and clapped her hands together before paying her respects. After some time, she got up and walked back to the castle. She went into the kitchen and cooked herself some dinner. Once she finished eating, she poured herself a glass of white wine before exiting the room. She wandered aimlessly in the castle until she reached a room that had piqued her interest. Illiana walked into the room and saw a grand piano sitting in the middle of the room. She walked up to it before gliding her fingers over the piano keys. "How long has it been since I last played?.....Hmm...." She sat down on the piano bench before pulling herself closer to the piano. She put her wine glass on top of the piano before laying her fingers on the keys. The moonlight had crept into the room, illuminating her and the piano. Illiana took a deep breath and began to play. Beautiful notes had begun to spill from the piano, almost echoing out of the room. She closed her eyes and just let herself relax and continue playing. The entire time she was playing, nothing but memories of her life prior to her journey to the castle filled her every thought. Her time with her parents. Her time with Koa. Her time before the military. Her time during the military. However, most of her memories went back to her family. The times she would help her parents out in the bakery or times they would go outside for a picnic or times they would just sit at home and enjoy each other's company.

Koa sighed again as Finlay about his title. "I understand but right now, if you keep on like that, the enemy will find us and hunt us down. We don't have much of a plan so I would like to avoid conflict. Just listen to me and stay quiet when I tell you." He looked back at Lyn before saying one last thing to him. "And that wasn't a request." He looked at Lyn as she demanded their attention. Finlay had then barked back at her. "Finlay! What did I just say?! Let Lyn speak and stay quiet until I tell you to!!" He took a deep breath before Lyn continued. She went on to discuss means of ridding Nequa. She went on about how she was banished before and was to be locked up by someone name Krowley. Lyn had then begged to let her join the group. Koa nodded his head. Lyn then asked if they were all prepared. "Lyn....We're prepared to do what needs to be done. Though I can't trust one hundred percent but I am willing to give you forty percent. So, what do we have to do?"
Luna just followed along with Ariel until they had reached her grotto. Once Luna was inside, she was completely amazed by what was inside. It had been filled with paintings and music boxes and even silverware. "You collected all this Ariel? This is amazing." Ariel had then picked up a fork and then begun to explain. "This is called a dinglehopper. Humans use it to brush their hair!" Luna laughed a little awkwardly before going over to her. "Who ever told you that?" She picked up the fork before speaking again. "This isn't a dinglehopper. This is called a fork and humans used it to pick up their food, not to brush their hair." She smiled as she explained what the fork was and how it was supposed to be used. "Do you like to collect human stuff Ariel?" She smiled as she asked as she swam around the statue before looking around the grotto, genuinely interested and fascinated by her collection.
Illiana had made eye contact with Torrin as he nodded his head toward her and she did the same in return. Illiana kept standing in front of Tinarah protectively as the Light Chaser spoke. Illiana swallowed her words as he kept speaking and speaking. She wanted to know where her brother was or why he chose Koa? Why dragged him into his chaos? Where was he at this moment? So many questions where running through her head. Thallasa took Eilonwy, Gurgi, Fflam, and Taran out of the area. Illiana looked to Taran and tried to give him a reassuring look and nodded her head to him. After they left, she drew her focus back on the Light Chaser. The next thing she knew, Boreas was ready to fight but before he could move, his keyblade had shattered thanks to the Light Chaser. "Deus meus1...." Illiana couldn't believe what she saw. How? Just who was this Light Chaser? The Light Chaser was getting ready to strike. "Torrin!! You better have a plan in that head of yours!!!" The Light Chaser kept counting down. Time was ticking. Illiana got ready to get Tinarah out of the area as fast as she could. Before she knew it, the sound of flames had busted through the ceiling as a dragon flew in. "Not what I was expecting but that works too." She then looked at Torrin as darkness had been pouring out of him. It had consumed the whole chamber while the Light Chaser had blocked some of the fire from the dragon. The darkness had almost given her some comfort but at the same time also made her feel anxious. When she opened her eyes again, she found herself in front of the castle they were staying in prior to leaving. She held her head before speaking. "I got a headache but I'm alive." Torrin then went on to explain about Take and his being a 'Prince' of Heart. Little Tacky.....Who would've thought? Illiana crossed her arms as she listened. She looked over to him as he was processing it. Best to give the kid some space. As Illiana started to walk away, the sound of Torrin's sheer excitement almost startled her. She looked back to see him hug the dragon. "Guy practically has stars in his eyes....a little unsettling...probably wouldn't make for good blackmail. Damn. Oh well." She shrugged her shoulders before starting to walk off. Before she could walk off again, another voice called out to her and Chrono. "So new friends. What do they call you? And do you all have keyblades? And how many of you are princesses?" She sighed before putting her hand up. "Alright I'm stopping you right there. First off, why in the world would we be here if we didn't have keyblades? Secondly, like hell I'm some damn princess. And lastly, I'm not a friend. You can probably call him one but not me. Not into the whole buddy-buddy thing so if that's all then name's Illiana and I'm out of here." With that, she walked off. She tried to find an area outside near the castle where nobody was around. She thought back to the ones whose lives had been claimed throughout this ordeal: Mika, Adalric, Dentro, and now Glyde. Four young souls who still had their lives ahead of them but were easily taken away. A slight wind had blew through, casting her eyes onto a small stone. An idea had immediately popped into her head. Illiana opened up her umbrella and reached into it. She pulled out a sealed gallon of water. She grabbed some clay from her umbrella and a bucket. She scooped up some dirt into the bucket and her plan had commenced. Illiana marked four places and began building gravestones to honor those that had fallen thus far. After some time, she had finally finished making the stones. Each one had there names engraved on it. Mika, Adalric, and Glyde's stones were all next to each other. Dentro's was behind the three. She wiped the sweat off her forehead before sighing. "I'm not one to do something kind often but you guys deserve at least a gravestone. I'll be back to collect some flowers. You also deserve that at the least." She picked up her umbrella and left the stones. She wandered around in search for a field of flowers. Translation Notes: 1: My god
The person on the right is literally me xD
Yukyo kept thinking about the fish he would encounter on this job. His train of thought had been interrupted when Thea had spoke. "Huh?" "Hmmm. Is the boat going to be big? Like Daddies Yacht? That might be nice? It might be relaxing too." He was a little lost but tried to keep up his smile. So she's a rich girl....greaattttt...Thea had asked Yukyo something a bit odd but he wasn't too surprised. "Hmmm. Can you turn into something fuzzy that I can ride there? Like a bear? That would be really cool!" He sighed as he rubbed his temples for a moment. "Ummm I rather not....I literally spent my wagon ride back as a cat.....Wait....I probably should've kept quiet about that......welp." He scratched his head before Thea called out to him again, only this time she was near Shawn. "Huh?.......Wait a second....Why are there two Theas??" Before Yukyo could say anything else the scent of roses and violets wafted through the air. A woman had rested her arm on Shawn's shoulder. His expression was blank as he put his hat back on as he approached the woman. "I do beg your pardon, milady. I believe we never met. My name is Yukyo. Yukyo Alvaric. What might yours be beautiful lady?"
Illiana continued her silent trek toward the cauldron until she felt someone grab her arm. She got ready to strike her opponent until she saw it was Qamar. She scowled and sighed. "Let go of me right now before Ardyn sees both of us. And on any other day I would pay to see that but that's not the case right now." She whispered angrily while Qamar spoke. "Illiana, this...this isn't the right choice." She was definitely confused to say at the least. Qamar continued to speak. "I know it's not my place, but you've got a lot to live for, okay? Think about your brother. You worked so hard to try and follow him. You even pushed yourself past exhaustion....you go in there now, you're gonna get smacked by Ardyn, okay? He's too strong. Stay back and assess the situation more." Okay...Now Illiana was definitely confused. The expression on her face was one of definite confusion. Does she actually think I was gonna throw my life away for them? Is she like another form of stupid or something? Actually......Better if I don't know. But she's one absolute bonafide idiot. Illiana rubbed her temple in circles for a moment before sighing. She then opened her mouth. "Are you stupid or something? Why in the damn cosmos would I give my own life over that? Especially for you guys?" She sighed before continuing. "Why would I willingly go near the cauldron if I didn't assess the situation? I'm not that stupid. Just go back to the others unseen and try to distract him. Got it?" Illiana grabbed the arm holding her own, gripping just as tightly, if not more. She then released it, almost throwing it. Illiana turned around and started her way to the cauldron again. That was until she heard a mysterious voice, followed by a bright light, call to Ardyn. "What in the-?" Before she could move any further, the muffed voice grew more clearer and a figure emerged from that light. Illiana opened her eyes and was definitely surprised but a little clueless as to who that mysterious person was. The smell of burnt metal lingered in the air. She turned her attention toward the cauldron and saw that it had been split into two. "What the hell is going on?" She whispered. The figure had then spoke. His next words had Illiana's blood started boil and her emotions run high. "You may have heard of me before. Does the name Light Chaser ring a bell?". This is the Light Chaser?? This is the bastard that filled Koa's head with lies?!?! Illiana got ready to strike as she looked over to see if anyone would be in the way. She then saw Tinarah winding up for some kind of strike. Her blood started to cool down while her mind started to process again. She's gonna kill herself if she tries anything right now.....Dammit....I'm not gonna make it in time if I run....What do I do?! As if to answer her, her keyblade changed its shape once again. The keyblade had formed itself into a whip, thorns covering it. "Well....every rose has its thorns but let's try not to hurt the girl." Once again, as if it was listening to her, the thorns shrunk, almost disappearing into the whip. She shrugged before starting to run. Illiana threw her whip once she saw she was close enough. The whip flew threw the air and wrapped itself around Tinarah. Illiana pulled on her whip, dragging Tinarah out of harm's way. She got her arms ready to catch her. She felt her feet almost digging into the ground as she caught her. Her whip reverted back to its original form as Illiana got in front of her. "You can curse me out later. However, running in there blindly filled with rage is gonna do nothing but get you killed. Trust me, I understand how you feel. I wanna kill him too but I got a bad feeling about doing it now." Illiana turned her head to try and calm Tinarah down while still standing in front of her protectively.
Illiana watched as the Horned King grow weaker and weaker. She stayed silent as the King denied and denied his defeat. Illiana had felt an icy presence in the area. She couldn't figure it out but she would find out in a mere moment. Before anyone could run over, Ardyn had shown up, sending the Horned King into the Cauldron, sealing his fate. Ardyn then faced the group, tipping his hat and thanking them for playing their role. "So that was your end game......I knew it....." Illiana flipped a piece of her hair away from her face. "We were just pawns for him to slide in and take what he needed." She crossed her arms as she closed her eyes, reviewing the events that led them to here to connect Ardyn's plan. She opened her eyes and saw that Torrin had then stepped forward. Is he stupid? We just fought in battle not even five minutes and he wants to fight again?! Damn.... Illiana sighed before Ardyn had mentioned something quite interesting. She then whispered to herself. "So he's the one that put down the kid.......Disgusting..." Before Illiana could step up, Tinarah had then stepped over to Torrin. Illiana looked between those two and the Cauldron. A plan had begun forming in her head. She immediately backed away from the group slowly. She kept her eyes on Ardyn and Torrin while she tried to make her way to the Cauldron. Maybe if I can get to the Cauldron quietly......maybe I can change the tide....If I could just grab it.....Maybe pull Ardyn into even...Illiana kept walking slowly and quietly. She kept moving toward the Cauldron while they were still talking.
(Will Edit in post later)Evie used Aqua Stream and Strike
Luna remained silent as the King spoke. He was definitely concerned about just the mere presence of a keyblade. Luna bowed her head as Triton commanded them to leave his kingdom. "Many pardons, your majesty." She lifted her head andas she exited out, she stopped before turning back. "I know I may be overstepping my boundaries.....however.....You should try and talk with your daughter and try to understand how she feels. Just allow her to open up to you.....No words should be said....Just give her the freedom to talk to the one person she looks up to the most...you." She bowed her head once more before leaving the room. The group had immediately caught up with Ariel. Sebastian had immediately told Ariel to move aside as the group was to exit the kingdom. Ariel had then spoke. "Well... he didn't say WHEN they had to leave... so I can show them around a bit!" Before Luna could even utter a sound, she felt Ariel grab her arm and drag her to her grotto. "Huh?!?!? Whoa!!!!" Luna could barely move as Ariel continued dragging her to her grotto.
Illiana felt her body get knocked back by the Horned King's attack. She stood back up and tried to stop, breathe, and think. She tried to cast a spell but nothing would emerge. "Damn...Bastard locked my magic...." Illiana took another deep breath before speaking out, her eyes still glued onto the enemy. "Somebody better have a plan cause we're gonna crash at this rate." Illiana took another moment to formulate a plan in her head. She had a least thought out her next move. "There's only so much you can do yourself....." She sighed before reaching a hand to her chest. "Oh well. Gotta do what's gotta be done. Hopefully you'll be useful." Illiana felt a presence surround her. In the next immediate moment, she felt her body get lighter and much easier to move. She grabbed her blade and jumped into the air. She rolled forward in mid-air, aiming at the Horned King. "Eat this you bag of bones!" Illiana descended down, feeling her body move so fast it was as if she was moving at the speed of sound. Her blade slashed through the King, hoping it did a number on him. She backspringed her way back to where she was before. As she stood up, she felt the magic within her flow through her body once more. She looked over to Chrono as he cheered on the three he had healed. Illiana gave him a two finger salute before looking back at the Horned King. Illiana activated the Solar Surfer D-Link! Illiana used Sky Dive! HP: 31/70 MP: 27/40 FOC: 15/28 FLUX: 2/3
Let’s get SPOOPPYYY!!!!
I jumped into it. Up to you really!! •^•
