"Of course I am up for it. It doesn't have to be easy just possible." Karina answered. She talked as though she was confident in her abilities and knew what she was doing, when in reality she wasn't so sure. Karina didn't think she was a good fighter and she wasn't entirely sure what was going on but she wouldn't show it because she didn't want to be looked down on or people to treat her less cause she wasn't confident. She didn't want help either. So she pretended to be confindent and would see how it went. She would learn if she had to just not ask for help.
Sapphire wouldn't give up attacking, she took a deep breath before stepping forward again. She launched herself into the air over Oda and threw her dagger down at him. When she landed on the other side of him her back was to him. She turned on her heel her arm stretched out, sword in hand. he sword swung around with her spin directed at Oda's back. "She has potential." Kaya said out loud to no one in particular well watching the fight between Oda and Sapphire. She was intrigued by the fight but at the same time getting bored of just watching. "Well um." Louvel started trying to be careful of what he said unsure if there would be effects of sharing certain detail. "I saw two people who I assume to be your parents, as well as your uncle. But they didn't say to much and not much happened." Louvel finished just as Kel came up. "Is Buece coming? Are we ready to depart for the mission?" Louvel asked.
Cloud "Kill Chronos eh? Sounds fun." Cloud stated as he walked by Luke. "By the looks of you two you could use some help with that." Cloud turned and looked at them . His sword sat on his shoulder and he was ready to get going to find this person, who ever or whatever he was. He didn't want to remain this age for much longer. Lightning "Serah is my younger sister." Lightning explained. "I had to take care of her when I was this age. If she is here too then she might be lost and defenseless. I need to find her" Lightning continued as she turned to Squall. "If beating Chronos is what it takes to protect her then that is what I will do." Lightning started to walk away on a mission to protect her sister. Vincent Vincent finally spoke up from the back of the group that consisted of a brod blond male, and two young females one with pink hair. "Clothes won't solve the problem. Neither will talking about it." Vincent hid the bottom half of his face in his cloak as he talked. "This may not be the only trial we will face." Vincent speculated.
Karina slightly chucked at Kross's comment. "You really think so?" She asked half expecting him not to answer. She then turned to Yana. "I actually don't know but it is just another mission and I don't plan to screw this one up like that last one." It was then she saw another mouse approach them. "Do you know where we should look to find a keyhole?" Karina straight up asked Jake. There was no use covering what they were looking for because in her mind they wouldn't find it on their own in a world that she had never been to.
"New ally yes, I wouldn't call her a friend." Karina responded. "This is Yana, Yana that is Kross. Now that we have the pleasantries or whatever you want to call them out of the way shouldn't we find out what we are suppose to do here." Karina didn't make eye contact with either of them the entire time she talked. And she really didn't care if she seemed rude, she knew she was being rude. She just wanted to find out what they were suppose to do and do it without messing up like last time.
"Seems to me that depends on which ones. There are few I have met so far that I trust. Most are undecided for me and there are a few I don't like or trust." Karina responded as she kept walking, not actually knowing were she was headed. "As for you" Karina turned to Yana. "I have yet to decide." With that Karina decided to stay quiet and continue to walk.
"Karina." Karina simply stated. "I had the chance to talk with people but chose not to. And I am pretty new two. The last world I was in was my first mission and I arrived part way through, so I know no more then you." Karina explained as she stared straight ahead. Karina wondered who else might have ended up in the world but didn't say anything about it. Karina started walking ahead again not saying anything to Yuna past that, seeing if she would follow or go her own way.
Karina stood up from a bit of a hard landing in the new world. She looked around noticing everything seemed to be so big in this world, or perhaps it was that she was small. See looked down at her hands which were now small , furry paws. "What the heck?" Karina thought as she took a step forward and looked around more. It was then she saw another mouse, she looked oddly familiar to Karina. "Hey you!" Karina said walking up behind the other mouse. "You a keyblade wielder too?" She asked attempting to sort things out in her mind.
before I forget again, equip blend
I will also be heading to the outback
Sapphire started to calm down a little bit but that didn't stop her from attacking. She knew what was expected of her so she would do it. She took a step forward and swung her sword at Oda. "I awoke you by entering your mind and unlocking it." Louvel explained. Then he continued "I earned my keyblade trying to protect someone very dear to me, my sister. And you have the capability to wield a keyblade. I saw it when you had mine, the way you get it is that you have to prove your worth. As for how many others, we don't know but there are two others downstairs now. I brought you here because I see your potential. Did I answer everything to your liking?" Louvel finally ended.
thanks
"Don't blame him for the fight blame me...." Karina said quietly. "I heard the calls fr Kross and ignored them instead of telling him to go. I was being selfish and trying to prove something to myself." She admitted. Karina refused to make eye contact with either of them. She stared at the ground and spoke quiet enough that she questioned if either of them would hear her.
Karina nodded as she allowed her keyblade to disappear from her hand. She was slightly embarassed that he could tell that she was slowing down but at the same time relieved that he said it not her. She would never ask for a break herself but she was willing to accept it when offered. Looked at Kross "Your good, a lot better then I am." With that she turned and made her way back to the wall where she sat down to rest for a bit.
"Didn't want you to in the first place." Karina responded as she attempted to fend off his attack. She was doing pretty well for the most part but struggled to fend off all of the attacks. But each time she took a hit she would improve her blocking as the determination not lose grew. But this started to fade as she started to tire out and slow down.
Cloud Cloud rolled his eyes at the young man ready to stop any attacks that might have been thrown his way. It was then a strange energy hit. Suddenly Cloud felt strange, younger in fact. He was 16 again. The age he tried to join Soldier. Slightly confused he lowered his weapon a bit. "I work alone." Cloud stated. His physical appearance may have changed but his attitude remained the same. Lightning Lightning lowered her weapon as she felt a change happen. "What is going on here?" She questioned as she looked around to try to see if she could find the cause of whatever was making this happen. Unable to locate the cause her mind then turned to her younger sister. "What about Serah?" She accidentally said out loud. Vincent Vincent barely noticed the change in age. He mostly ignored it and jumped off the roof where he had been crouching, observing the people below. Noticing a change in them is approached them without a word.
Oda that was really good, but also sad. I really enjoyed and keep it up
Sapphire stopped immediately after Oda and R appeared. Sapphire was tired from the last battle and was still breathing quite heavily. She took the high potion from R before she turned to Oda. She didn't say a word but she turned to Oda sword and dagger still in hand ready to fight. Her eyes were still red, the darkness had yet to subside. Normally she would back down from the challenge knowing that she was unable to win. But with the darkness taking hold, all Sapphire could think about was fighting. She stood ready waiting for Oda to make his move. "She needs to learn to control her darkness better." Kaya said to R. It was then that she realized that she never told R about preferring to be called Kaya now instead of Moonflow. "By the way, it is Kaya now. Moonflow is long gone." She left it at that not offering any more of an expanation. She was interested to see her master and Xross fight and how they would fair against each other. "Yes I brought you here along with the other keyblade wielders we met." Louvel explained. "You feeling up for a mission. That is were we will be heading pretty soon." Louvel asked.
"As I said, I do what I have to. If that means using magic then I will." Karina replied. She stood her ground keyblade readied for whatever attack he might attempt. The only thing that mattered to Karina at this point was winning and proving that she deserved to be here. Not to everyone else, but to herself. She was the one that needed the convincing.
"I am not that good." Karina admitted before continuing. "But even if I am not, I hate to lose. I will do whatever I have to to win. I hope you know that." With that Karina prepared for the attack. She jumped backwards and yelled "Fire!" sending a small ball of fire in Kross's direction.
