Alice dodged the projectiles coming from the large Heartless. It looked like some sort of bug Heartless, except on steroids. It spit out sharp purple spikes and released a poison into the ground. It growled at her as she sliced off a back leg and kicked it in it's buggy behind. She smirked, "I told you we were kicking it!" Peter laughed and she winced playfully until her grimace turned real as the bug bit into her leg.
Xenree scowled and Roxas snarled, "I'm not going anywhere until I kill her." Xion stood beside him, silent and kept the green-haired woman behind her. "You expect me to back down....because a few children stand before me threatening my existence? Shadow Star...I'm embarrassed for you. You call yourself a name with Shadow in it and yet you're here with beings of light. You should be ashamed." Renee whimpered and gripped his shirt, "Please don't go!" Cloud's phone clicked and a deep voice came through the phone, "Vincent." Cloud sighed, "Vincent, it's Cloud. What's your location." Vincent didn't respond for a while, "Somewhere dark. Don't worry about me Cloud. I'll be there in a few days." Cloud mumbled his agreement and wished him goodluck and shut the phone. "Alright, Mage...lets go find someone who knows you." Saix nodded and ran off down the corridor. His energy seeking Mage's. Akii mumbled in Hestia's arms. "I wanna...I want to see her. I wanna go find my mama. She'll tell you...she loves me now."
Xenree's eyes flicked from the man to Orias and she finally spoke. Her words muffled slightly by her clenched teeth, "I told you to leave. I'm not...the one Trixis and you know so well. Don't make me force you to go Orias." She stood, pushing away from him and held her Keyblade out to him, just under his chin. The man turned back to Sharumix, "I'm going to train little Xenree in the ways of Darkness so she can properly follow dear Riku's footsteps. Riku chose the wrong way to handle darkness, but I know Xenree won't."
Alice finished off a majority of the Heartless before she realized the one thought in her head that wasn't hers or Nova's....was Auran's. Feeling another twinge of guilt she glanced over and saw a small dagger sticking out of a Heartless much to close to her. "Thank you." Peter smiled and nodded. Finally Alice's Heartless she'd been seeking ripped from the surroundings and dropped on the ground with a roar. "Time to kick it into overdrive. You ready?" Peter nodded again and she held out her Keyblade, letting Nova's katana meld with it to form her sword.
Xenree kept her trail up the Darkside's arm and stabbed her Keyblade, Dark Void, into the Darkside's head. "Like me now?" she smirked and followed it down as it fell to the ground.
Alice kept her head high as she narrowed her golden hazel eyes on the Heartless swarming in the cave. "Hmph, I almost expected there to be more of you..." as soon as she spoke, more Heartless warped out of little dark portals and swarmed near her. "Well, ask and thou shall recieve." Her Keyblade shone with light as she held it out before her. "Come and get some!" A Heartless rushed her and she cut through it easily. Her skill as a Keyblade Warrior weren't too rusty, and this would make everything easier...practice for the Heartless she was looking for.
Accepted. (I'mma pyromaniac....LOVE the fire!)
Alice calmly followed the boy in green and waited until he stopped and hovered near a cave entrance. "Is this it!?" He nodded, "There are a lot of Heartless inside. They've been giving Hook a hard time too and I thought I was the only one who bothered him." Alice smiled and steeled herself as she headed inside.
Akira screamed as Grey and Leo fell and she fell backwards from the King Tonberry. "Wh-what? Lightning! Leo, Grey!?" Her confusion didn't help but it had an effect on the Junior Tonberry attacking her. The little thing turned to look and she kicked it away from her, casting water to aid in getting it as far away from her as possible. Lightning's vision dimmed from the loss of blood and the amount of times the Tonberrys had hit her. Odin lost a great deal of his energy and time. WIth the King Tonberry's attack, Odin slowed considerably and swung his double sided scythe at the King. Light, praying to herself that she wouldn't let Snow down, turned just in time to see Leo and Grey fall over the cliff. "Leo, Grey!" Her panic spurred Odin back into battle. Her battle-set mind was so focused on killing that she'd forgotten to take care of everyone. "Ryou, it's time to get out of here! Akira, get going!" she ordered. Her blue eyes sharper than ever and colder. There wasn't much even Odin could do agianst a King Tonberry at the moment after fighting so much of the Junior Tonberries. For a moment of distraction, Light raced into her Army of One skill and repeatedly slashed, shot and kicked at the King Tonberry. Anything to keep her apprentices safe. Odin followed her lead, covering her from the small knife the King carried and the Junior Tonberry's attacks.
Renee gaped, "They're back there?! They could get killed. I...Raoxthu, what do I do?" Akii released her arm and held onto Hestia like she was her mother. "I...I want my mama. She has to love me now....I'm sorry I'm nasty....mama..." Saix frowned, "Xenree....has to love you now? Do you mean when we disappeared that....you were with her?" Akii nodded, her silver eyes gittering with overflowing tears. Cloud frowned at her answer, "Then I guess....he must be somewhere else. I wonder if I can call him." Flicking open a cell phone, Cloud started to dial and paused for a moment, "It's just a name. It's not like it's all that special." He resumed dialing and held it to his ear, "C'mon Vincent...." Xenree felt the presence of Roxas and Xion and the other woman in the Realm of Incompleteness. "I suppose you're here to fight me?" Roxas nodded, a snarl of hatred on his face and Xion mimicked him. "We're done taking your crap!" Xenree smiled, "Whatever do you mean?" "Don't play dumb. You imprisoned this woman and Renee. Where's Renee." The green haired woman stared at Xenree with pure green eyes, "She is none of our concern and she is safe now you two. What matters now is that the dark realm remains locked behind dark seal and lock." Roxas and Xion summoned their Keyblades and a dark shadow crossed Xenree's silver eyes.
Haha OMG that would be SO COOL! But sadly no, it's just Peter Pan. lol he wears green too and is always super happy. :lolface: (great, now I...
Renee blinked, "Xion....has anyone seen her? It'd be nice to talk to her myself." Saix ran with as much energy as he could muster. Having searched for the time while they'd been gone, he was frantic and tired. He stopped when he saw a small girl in the corridors. Running toward her, he slowed as he realized it wasn't Mage but another young girl they knew. Akii. Akii sat sobbing in the darkness, her hands moving but she couldn't quite see what she was doing. All she saw was red and white and black. The black, the color of the darkness. The white, her own skin? The red....her blood? Her nails dug into her arm and blood dripped into the darkness. She heard herself repeating the same thing over and over, "Nasty....nasty..." (didn't want to get too graphic but I think that's the gist of it) Cloud shrugged, "To find someone who might help you find your friend." He slid the sunglasses on his head and kept walking. "I'm Cloud...but you might've known that before." He stopped for a momtent and turned toward her, "Hey...you haven't seen a Turk anywhere around here before have you? Red torn cloak, triple barreled gun, claw arm....goes by the name of Vincent Valentine?"
Xenree stared at him. Her silver eyes brightly watching him as she stood without a word. She spoke to his mind for the moment, "Why are you doing this Orias. I told you to leave me alone. I don't want you here. You must leave!" The man turned, his yellow eyes following Orias and settled on the two, "Heh, so you'd prefer to make her work to make you see the truth. Xenree....show them the truth." Xenree seemed to flinch when he said her name. Her eyes left Orias' and stared at the ground.
ooc: nice.... lol a guess it's a good read.. if mom would get off my back! bic: Alice wandered around Neverland, half feeling guilty for leaving Auran. She bumped into a boy in green as she walked in her dazed form. He spun around and frowned at her, "Hey now, watch it! Oh, who are you?!" Alice jerked with surprise and stepped back, "I'm Alice. I....have you seen any dark creatures around here?" He touched his chin and looked up at the sky, "Well now that you mention it. Yeah, I guess we did. Those guys have been bugging us for days now. Are you here to get rid of them?" Alice smiled kindly and nodded, "Well that's great! C'mon, I'll show ya where they are!" he flew off and Alice ran after him, not willing to question the matter of how he could fly or much of anything else that happened in a different world.
Xenree was hit by a force that felt like an emotion she should know and stumbled to her knees again. She stifled her cry of pain and kept moving forward, away from her old friends. The man smirked in the darkness, "Oh, you'll leave. Since he's already given up on her, a Nobody will too. It's only a matter of the way you think." he spoke logically and without a hint of anger or fear in his voice that Sharumix hadn't listened and left too.
Xenree fisted her empty hand and turned on her heel, walking away from them. My problem is you." she thought to them, telepathically sending her thought to Orias. The man in the shadows moved up behind Xenree, facing Orias and Sharumix. "I think it's best you leave the girl to me."
Cold fire burned in Xenree's hand as she backed away from him. How could she look him in the eye and show him her lack of feeling for him. The boy she'd grown up with, shared everything with. This wasn't happening. Lobbing the ball of dark fire at Orias, she tried to aim it so it wouldn't hit him but the ground close to him. Farther off, a man stood waiting for the decendent of the Hero of Darkness. He was getting impatient but waiting for her would be worth it. At least that's what he'd been informed of. His figure shrouded in the shadows, he smirked as he witnessed Xenree's hostile display to keep the young boy and new Nobody away from her.
Accepted .
Alice woke, feeling overly groggy and foolish, she jumped up and nervously looked down at Auran. "Oy....this can't be what's happening. I've always been alone...and now I'm settling for a guy who's a Nobody or...something. C'mon, Alice, focus!" She bit her lip and wrote in light on the ground beside him. 'Auran, I still have a duty to do so if you want come and help. Eradicating the Heartless is a difficult job.' Feeling silly she left it and slipped into a corridor of light and into Neverland. Heartless swarmed there too.
