"Well, I mean, since we were joined. You know--" To which Eden put a hand to his shoulder. A sort of spark his light and darkness, she didn't notice. "When Wesely murdered me and you joined with me? Is your heart okay since that? Man, I thought I had amnesia." she sighed. Nexas gave a slight glare at Riku, studying him, silently judging.
Eden looked to Riku, Nexas following by her side. Parma went ahead to check for danger. Her eyes wandered around, curious. She fiddled with her fingers, unsure what to do. "So... How's your heart, Riku?" Apparently, the question was serious, because she had called him by his name, rather then his demeaning nickname.
Eden nodded. She stepped about, looking at the King's keychain more. "Feels warm..." she muttered. She honestly wondered why she still had it, and why it never left her side.
"Parma is a good bird." Eden smiled, petting the little creature. "But please, let's get out of here." She walked over near the pool, observing it and the little cocoon she had left behind. Picking it up, she pocketed it to be examined for another time. "So Shadow, where's Sora anyway? And how do we get out?"
He held out his hands to the wall, where a black bird with a white eye flitted up to Eden. "What is this, Parma?" she questioned. "Ran out of white." he bit his lip. The bird flew up to Eden's shoulder and rubbed against her cheek. "I remembered you used to carry her. You made her when you were... being a fangirl." To which Eden blushed at that.
"Maybe the Heartless got to him and he couldn't go through." Eden sighed. She couldn't do more, except still offer the keychain. Nexas was too busy creating something from the darkness and his white hair( the colors), but quickly ran out of white. He frowned, shifting the two colors more. "Nexas?" Eden peeked at him, wondering his idea. "One minute." he huffed, still working.
"From... I got it from... I know someone gave it to me..." Eden growled at herself. The keychain shimmered in her palm, causing the holder to stare at it quizzically more. "Here, Shadow. You take it." She held out the keychain, unwilling to keep it. Nexas looked to the keychain, then having a sudden memory. He looked to the darkness and clicked his fingers to have it slither towards him. ooc: She got it from Xert to show what was left of the King.
Nexas nodded. " Sean was killed by the Heartless. I am the result." Eden grimaced, unsure what to do. "Well... I guess I'll get him back. Let's go, I want to leave this place, it's--?" She had put a hand in her pockets to find the keychain of King Mickey's Keyblade. "Mickey's... Reversed Kingdom Key? The hell is this doing here?"
"Oh... I guess my darkness got out of control..." Eden put a hand to her heart, sighing. Nexas shadowed her, keeping a slight distance, until she turned to him. "So where is Sean?"
"Where have I been?" Eden questioned, looking to Nexas as he stood up. "Besides, why would I go anywhere away from you guys after home being destroyed?... Where are we anyway also? Recap?"
"I'm fine Val, but why is Sean here?" Eden quizzically asked, taking off the hood of his bleach white straight hair. "Not curly..." "I'm Nexas." he blinked, wondering what else to say. "So... Nexas... Um... Riku... Val... What happened since Australia?" Apparently, the old Eden before Australia was back.
The keyhole within the pool glistened, ready to be sealed. A blurry image of Nexas came into Eden's view as she slowly woke up, only to flail about and gasp for air. "SEAN!?" She backed up, panicked. "What the hell, you trying to scare me?" She glared at the now confused Nexas. Her eyes turned a bit soft, realizing a crucial detail. "Wait... Sean's dead. Then who are you?"
Eden looked around the light and darkness, noticing it seep into her. "Hey! You can't do that!" she growled, throwing blind punches at nothing. "Not everything dark you see is evil. the light hummed. Eden didn't listen. "Not everything light is good." The darkness chirped. A gray sort of substance leaked into her head, shooting her with pain. "And then there is me in-between. I am neutral." the gray purred in her mind. "Get out! Get out of my head!" the amnesiac screamed. Her heart throbbed as the darkness took away the blinding light within it. The light took away her feral darkness. The gray poured her memories back in, and a few new things as well. Now the pain of this was quite severe, but Eden's throat was getting too raw to continue at this point. A new light and darkness poured in, both equals that created Twilight within her. Then, black. Her limp, pain racked body floated slowly to the top of the jade pool. Nexas immediately went to Eden and scooped her up from the pool, laying her on the floor. "Eden...?" he whimpered, shaking her slightly.
Eden blinked, seemingly off balance or floating in a pool of light and darkness always shifting. "The hell is this?" she muttered. Nexas looked into the pool. "She's gone..." he moaned, upset that he missed her again, but was so painfully close.
Eden looked in the warm water, finding something engraved within the smooth stone pool. A... hole? Looks like it's for a key. She poked it, to which no reaction. Soon enough she realized she needed air, then came back up to take a quick breather before another dive. It got bigger... She looked at the keyhole, now the size of her arm, brushing a hand against it. The Keyhole began to glow, bright and intense, sucking her within it. The crow returned, squawking about in a hurry at Nexas while returning to the shadows in it's original state. "Dammit." he hissed, running. He just barely made it to see Riku guarding the pool of water that was brightly glowing. "NO!" he yelled, pushing aside Riku as he ran by.
Eden looked around, the little silk cocoon getting hotter still. She moved around, finding it get hotter near a little pool of water. It seemed pure, and covered by golden steps for someone to bathe in. The water looked warn, and inviting. "Shadow, look at this." she leaned closer, touching the water, to which it was as warm as she thought. Leaving the cocoon behind, she decided to go in and check what was in the steamy waters. Nexas led everyone still, hearing voices.The darkness of the walls rippled at the touch of his hands, forming into a crow to navigate further.
Nexas pushed Valerie onto land, bringing her along as he leaded Ellen. "Wonder what'd be in here." he mumbled. He went further, trying to find Eden.
ooc: It was a reflection of the water bic: "I saw myself. What did you expect me to see?" Eden grumbled, looking around further. Something about this silk cocoon felt warm in her palm. Almost turning hot. "Ri, this thing.... it's weird. It's hot for some reason." Nexas sighed, diving into the water after Valerie to bring her back up to air.
ooc: Undead and Vampires are different. Besides, if anything, I'd rather Robert Patterson. He's freaking awesome. Not because of Twilight(hell no, he's more proud to have played Cedric Diggory) but he freaking hates his own character xD In the best ways possible bic: Eden look into the coffin, finding a body wrapped in cloth and fine jewels and metals. But one thing oddly seemed out of place. A silk cocoon. Not just any. One that seemed to be big enough to house two. She pried it out of the head area above the cloth(presumably silk) and examined it. It seemed to harden over the old years, but it sounded like two hard rocks were in it when shaken. "What the?" Nexas swam out and onto the dry ground, going forward.
"Look." Nexas sighed, forming a gray smooth pebble, then kicked it down the slipping slide. There was a -clunk clink- and -clop-, but ended in a -sploosh-, suggesting water at the end. "See? C'mon, we gotta get to her." He jumped down, willing to find the one of his memories. Eden looked around, annoyed. "So how do we know where to look for this Keyhole thing?" She checked around, finding some sort of coffin. Not having much respect from the dead anyway, she tried pushing off the jade top.
