Sota looked over at Kairi, his face turning more red. He reached over, and put his hand on top of Kairi's. "I really would like to go with you...but, not on a whim, either..." With hopped into Kairi's lap, and tried to snuggle close.
Actually, yeah, I was gone for awhile, because of school...I couldn't even get any drawing done until now. It feels great to let it out, again.
Wait til college rolls around. Then you'll really have a reason to celebrate.
Take down the rest of those tests! Burn 'em up! 8D
That might be; things were a little hectic writing that last chapter, so it’s possible it came from somewhere else. Oh, man, talk about your necrobumps! Okay, sorry about the wait, school and all that. Here’s the next chap: “This is too much, Mayor! We can’t have freaks like those in our neighborhood!†The mayor stood in front of Destiny City Hall, in front of a large, soon-to-be-mob. The short, plump man looked exasperated, his bald head clearly sweating. He raised his hands to try and calm everyone down, but they continued to yell. “Please!†the mayor yelled over their voices, “Be sensible! These families have been here for as long as anyone can remember! Do you really think they would harm you all now, after all this time?†“Who says they were on our side to begin with?†yelled one man, “For all we know, they’ve been waiting all this time for the right moment to strike!†The crowd began to roar again. The mayor took a step back. This had been going on for an hour, and he was getting very tired. There was just no talking these people out of it: They were out for blood for Sora’s family, after all that happened. Only now, it seems they’ve rallied against Selphie, Tidus, Wakka, and anyone else who supported them. The mayor reached inside his pocket and pulled out a walkie-talkie. “I trust you heard all of that?†Irvine sighed, “Every word, sir. I’ll inform the others. Keep me posted.†Irvine retreated from one of the buildings he was perched on, and headed back to inform Sora’s family and Squall. C’mon, guys, he thought, We’re running out of time! If we move Kairi now, she won’t make it, and neither will the others! “Sora! Kairi! Stop!†“Aw, c’mon, Riku! This is fun!†“Yeah, Riku! Don’t be a downer! Join in!†Riku dodged as much as he could to evade Sora and Kairi’s wild assaults. The two were wearing the ‘all-too-familiar-to-Riku’ heartless armor that Riku first used against Sora on Hollow Bastion. The difference between Riku then and those two now: Sora and Kairi were much crazier and much more powerful. If they weren’t shooting him with dark magic attacks, they were trying to goad him into going back to the darkness. “I don’t know what Hades was thinking in trying to pit me against you two, but I do know this: You’re not real.†Sora flew past Riku, and with an explosion, changed into his antiform, “Aw, who says we needed to be real? We just wanna have fun! And making you go splatsy is a good way to do that!†Kairi landed on the opposite side of Riku, and mimicked Sora: She changed into a similar antiform, “Well, he could always let us destroy him…or you and I could start making out, Riku.†She stood in a pose that was…well, was rather ‘un-Kairi’. Riku blinked. This was just getting too weird. Sora tried to take advantage of Riku’s being distracted. He jumped in the air, and tried to land a kick to Riku in the back, but to no avail. Riku sliced him in two before the kick connected. No heart was released as Sora disintegrated. Riku was right; they weren’t real. He stared down a nervous looking Kairi. “Uh…about my offer?†The audience watched as Riku started to appear from a portal , a result of him winning against his fear: Fighting against a corrupted Sora and Kairi. Hades voice boomed as Riku finished walking through. “Well, this is a surprise!†Hades raised his hands, “The former evil known as Riku has defeated his fears! But! Can the same be said of his two teammates?! Let’s find out!!†Hades pointed towards Riku’s left. There were two more portals next to where Riku stood. “If the challenger wants to take a rest, he may,†Hades sat back in his seat, smug. Riku glared at him, then raced into the next portal. Hades grinned more broadly as he went through. If nothing else, he had a good show. Riku emerged from the portal in both pleasant, and shocked surprise, as he looked around. It looked just like the room Sora fought him in to retrieve Kairi’s heart. The same room where Riku fought Sora as Ansem. Only, it looked much cleaner than it did when they first arrived: No signs of rust, dust or any wreckage. The equipment looked as though it hadn’t been used at all, yet. CLANG! Riku turned towards the source of the noise. Hiashi was fighting a much younger, much more domesticated looking Braig, and a scraggly, long haired man, about the same age, with long, sharp looking fingernails. Hiashi wasn’t just trying to fight them off, though. She was crying while doing so. “GO AWAY!†she screamed, “I DON’T WANT TO BE WITH YOU ANYMORE!†She slashed wildly at the two of them, but it just passed through them, like they were hazes. She’d have been better off fighting air. Riku shot his signature ‘dark aura’ attack at the two figures. It passed through them, also. Hiashi, surprised, looked at Riku. Her eyes were full of tears. Riku recoiled in surprise at her; she looked scarier like this than when she was angry. “LOOK OUT!†she screamed. Riku turned too late as Braig’s sword went all the way through him. The collision sent him flying towards the opposite wall. Hiashi’s knees shook. She quickly attacked the floor, making a huge dust cloud, blinding her two foes. She made a mad dash towards Riku, and tried to hold him up. She was surprised when he tried to get up. “NO, don’t try to move!†Hiashi tried to force him back down, “You were just-,†“I’m fine, Hiashi.†What kind of a lie was that?! “No, you’re not okay! You just got stabbed!†Riku shook his head, “No…I didn’t.†He moved his vest a little, where the sword went in…or rather, should have. There was no wound, no point in entry. “…What in-?†breathed Hiashi. Riku got to his feet, brushing the dust off of himself, “I’m not entirely sure how this works, but everything we’re facing is an illusion. Braig is still alive…sort of, so he can’t be here in the Underworld, right?†Hiashi blinked, “I guess…†Riku cocked his head a little while looking at the guy with the long hair and nails, “Who’s he?†He pointed at the man. Hiashi glared at him, “Wolf,†she stood up, gripping her broken sword, “and if he’s not real, then how do we defeat…?†As she was finishing that sentence, Braig and Wolf, along with the room they were standing in, faded away. In front of them, stood a portal…the two looked at each other, shrugged, and went through. “YET ANOTHER UNEXPECTED SURPRISE!†The two jumped as Hades voice boomed over the Underdrome once more. They looked around, seeing the large number of dead souls cheering as the two emerged from the portal. They were back? “THAT’S TWO FEARS DOWN, AND ONE TO GO WITH THE MASTER OF DISASTER STILL TRYING TO FACE HIS!†“Wait, my fear?†Hiashi glared at Hades, “I wasn’t afraid of Braig or Wolf! Just what was my fear about?!†Hades smiled a crooked smile, “Your past, my dear.†Hiashi mouthed ‘what?’ Riku nodded, “Makes sense,†Hiashi turned towards Riku while he was talking, “You’ve been so obsessed with trying to prevent what happened with you, you’ve kind of let it rule your life.†Hiashi stared at the ground a little…it seemed so fantastic a reason. And yet… Hisahi looked back up at Hades, “What did you mean by ‘Master of Disaster’? Vincent’s never done anything wrong in his life!†Hades smiled that crooked grin of his down at Hiashi again, but didn’t say anything. Riku watched Hades…he only saw that look once, when he was with Maleficent. A look of certainty, as if, one way or another, they would surely lose. “Let’s go,†said Riku. The two jumped through the third portal, sailing to where Vincent was located. “HANG ON!†“VINCENT! HELP!†Riku arrived to a rather grisly sight. He couldn’t make heads or tails of where he was: There were just too many heartless crawling about that they covered everything. Hiashi gasped, and then quickly covered her mouth. Tears were falling down as she watched the heartless quickly cover a woman; rather pretty, albeit frantic and frightened, and wearing a lab coat that was being quickly torn to shreds. “Lucrecia! Hang on!†Vincent yelled. The two turned their heads towards Vincent. He was a good thirty feet away from her, and he was swarmed with just as much heartless as she was, and not getting any leg room to make a move. “Wait, so that’s…?†asked Riku, pointing towards her. Hiashi shut her eyes, tears still falling. She quickly nodded, “This…this was how she died…this happened just shortly after the invasion started. I never knew it was like this…†Riku quickly grabbed her, “Remember, this isn’t real! Right now, though, Vincent needs our help.†He let go of her, and quickly swung his keyblade at one of the heartless: It bounced off. “What in-?†Riku began, but he didn’t get to finish that sentence. As quickly as they had arrived, everything grew dark, then, everyone was back at the coliseum. Hades loomed down over the trio, like he succeeded. “You failed, ol’ boy,†he gloated, “but, since this tournament is in it’s beion, and the crowd just LOVES YOU!†he raised his arms up, and the audience cheered, “we’re gonna give you guys a second chance.†“’A second chance’?†said a skeptical Riku, “From you? There’s gotta be a catch.†“Right you are, my feather-headed friend!†said Hades, pointing at Riku, “You’re either going to have to give something…or someone up if you are to continue. And even then, you’re going to have to fight you’re beloved Lucrecia again,†he knelt down to where it was a low hiss, “only this time, it’ll be hand to hand. So, tell me, heroes…which is it?â€
Sota quickly looked away, scratching the back of his head, "I mean, if it bothers you any, it's cool if you don't want to." Dark was laughing long and hard in his head. With plopped down in front of Kairi, staring at her. He tilted his head in confusion at her face turning red. "Kyuu?", he said.
Yeah, and I'll try and color that, too. Sweet. Awesomeness! *sighs* It's great to be back home...
Make it a racoon...
You should know, I'm working on coloring the mannequin, and working on a Mary Jane Watson prom pic...after I finish this update. No worries, I got it. You might want to check your page, you've got a new message. The face of terror...
*gently moves the guns* Don't bother, mummy, she's only a mannequin. *pokes* See that? Not real. ...where's the link? :( THERE IT IS! :lolface:
Pretty cool, even though I've only seen you a few times.
Here's something I've been working on: http://i160.photobucket.com/albums/t166/darkcloud_XIV/Kingdom Hearts/Kairiprom.jpg And mummy, please post the link to your deviant account! I wants to see it! 8DDD
Dark laughed in Sota's head, "She might after this!" Sota quickly shook his head, getting Dark out of his thoughts. He was turning more red, "Well...you see, I was thinking...maybe we could go on the, umm," He looked away, and scratched the back of his head, "...on the tunnel of love?"
*shrugs* I dunno anymore...I'm confused at this point. @_@
Well, I've described myself, so I don't know how I can get you to recognize me...if you don't want me on your friends list, I won't be offended.
Gotcha...anyway, your username freaked me out because I know another 'myoblivion'.
Hmm...I might have you confused for someone else, now....I meant 'Star Angel'?
Huh...well...this is awkward. You were mad at me at one point in time for hanging out with Star, and you said you had nothing to say to me in...
*head drops* And thus, the magic is gone... My avy used to be Cloud's fenrir head, but half of it was inverted?
"Umm..." Sota started to turn red, "Is there...any objection to any particular ride?"
