A World At War

Kalei was close behind Shen when the came across Zander in the main castle. It wasn't long before heartless started to attack out of some suspicious looking dark puddle "Zander...we'll help you...I have some explaining to do"


The spell was weakening but not so much just yet, Serafina's eyes opened and closed slightly yet she remained asleep, but with this thick air would she even be able to stay awake for long when the spell finally wore off?

 

Shen started to attack some heartless

 

Kalei drew both her blades "I refuse to use my power...the darkness I trusted is tainted" she jumped into the heartless "Lets try good ol' fashion fightning"

 

Shen smiled ad shot a beam of light at them

 

Xaneroy heard footsteps.
"Time to play..." he said with a smirk as he teleported to where Shen, Kalei, and Zander were.
He stood in front of them, blocking them from going any further.
"You kids never learn, do you?"

 

Shen just held his sword and looked at him

 

Kalei glared towards Xaneroy, holding her blades firm

 

Xaneroy laughed at Zander's overconfidence and then looked at Shen.
"Shen.." he said with an evil grin. "You don't want to fight me, do you? That would make Jezda very sad. You do remember Jezda, don't you?"

 

Kalei lowered her blades and looked at Shen "Jezda?.." she curiously wondered

 

Xaneroy laughed again.
"While Versago took you away as a baby, he forgot someone. Jezda." he said, still with his evil grin. "So, I took her away instead."
He held up a duplicate picture of Shen and his sister as babies.
"Would you like to know where she is?"

 

"your lying" SHen said

OOC: I have plans for Shen's sibling

 

Xaneroy stuffed the picture back into his pocket, laughing more.
"Very well then." he said. "I do not wish to discuss her any longer. For now, you three have a princess to find. But you better hurry up. She doesn't have much time left where she is."
He laughed once more before walking through a black portal.

 

"Damn him, always playing games" hissed Kalei, running after Zander "Wait up!"

 

Shen ran past the others

 

OoC: *Thinks of something random but actiony to write about* Eh...AHA! I've got it! :D


Xaneroy sat down next to a fireplace and sighed. Things weren't going quite as planned. Shen was still alive, Kalei and Shen are willing to help the princess, the bomb had not blown up the kingdom, and Ioaness was still alive.
"I shall not let it end like this..." he whispered at the fireplace. "Not yet..."
Suddenly, the heartless Zentus came scurrying into the room, his yellow eyes scanning every inch of it.
"What are you doing here?" Xaneroy said, not facing Zentus.
"I would like a command." the heartless Zentus said. "You have not given me anything to do. Please, master, surely there must be something I can do to assist you."
Xaneroy turned around in his chair and faced Zentus.
"Fine then." he said. "I want you to spy on Zander, Shen, and Kalei. We cannot take the risk of them finding out about the underground kingdom."
"Yes sir." the heartless said.
Just when he was at the doorway, Zentus stopped and turned to Xaneroy once more.
"Why can I control fire?" he asked. "I am but a heartless, yet I still control fire and I can remember my past."
Xaneroy's eyes widened. This was indeed very strange. Usually when someone became a heartless, they lost all of their memories and and powers.
"Fake." he said. "Those memories are fake. As for that fire, it's fake as well. Even though you can feel it's warmpth and see it's glow, it shall not do any damage to anyone."
"Oh really?" Zentus said.
He quickly formed a large fireball in his hand and threw it at Xaneroy, but Xaneroy stopped it before it could do any damage. Zentus continued making these attempts, but to no success. Finally, his powers were almost completely drained for the moment. Xaneroy laughed and kicked him in the chest causing him to fall over.
Zentus lay there on the ground, and looked up at the laughing Xaneroy. Suddenly, he noticed the fireplace and took advantage of it. With the rest of the power left in him, Zentus raised an arm and made the fireplace turn into a huge amount of fire that headed straight for Xaneroy. Xaneroy turned around and a huge blast of fire hit him in the face as he fell to the ground.
"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!?!" Xaneroy shouted, clutching his face that was on fire. "YOU SHALL DIE!!!! I PROMISE YOU THAT!!!"
The heartless Zentus did not say a word and quickly exited the room, in search of the others.

 

ooc - let me know when I can advance with Sera waking up, or just wait until she's found etc etc blah blah

BIC - Kalei caught up to Zander the grabbed his arm "Wait, before we go any further I need to explain"
