KH Class RP Part 2

Al rolled his eyes.He bent down and kneeled next to Roxas.He put his hand on his back absorbing the darkness.With his other hand he reached into his pocket and grabbed the charm putting it in his own pocket in a way that noone would have noticed.He kept absorbing his darkness till he felt him breathing again and stood up.

 

"Oh...you see little one....there is a threat waiting to be released....an interdimensional threat that would make Xenree and 00X seem tame......they are the W-Types" T.K explained.

Namine then leaned down to Roxas asking him "Sweetie are you okay?....you fell down and possibly blacked out"

 

Mage breathed calmly, the cool breeze cooling her paper white body. She made a small portal to fit her hand through, reaching in to grab her belongings, only to find they were in tatters. She took out her hand and closed the portal. "Tch, a Fake must've messed them up." she sighed, going to live with the lack of her Organization coat. She did notice Saix's scar was bigger, curiosity moving her hand towards it... Until Ashir held it in a hard grip.
"It's wise not to do that." he grimly stated, then let go and walked away.

First was going around the dark corridors, watching the Fakes run around, sometimes beating each other up. "Filthy creatures." he muttered. "Can't see why Xenree uses them."

 

Al walked away without a word until he was out of sight.He opened a portal and walked in closing it behind him.He stepped out in front of Xenree."I got your charm.....and the boys darkness....I know how we can further it...if you will help."

 

Roxas choked and gasped for air as Alphonse walked away. "Al...wh-where is he going?" He was still clutching Lumen's core as he stood up. Digging into his pocket his fingers weren't met with the sharp edge of Xenree's charm. "What the....? It's gone! Xenree's charm is gone! Alphonse must have taken it." he didn't sound particularly worried or angry, only sad.

Xenree laughed, stroking Vanitas' cheek, "My, my, you can do well if you concentrate. Roxas' darkness? Oh, I believe that will progress as time goes on. We must all have patience my dear. Now...do you want to see the one thing you shall never forget?" Her silver eyes glowed like silver mercury trapped in round glasses. Xenree waited for at least three seconds before gesturing to the locked door on the side of the castle. "Why of course you do. It's what you work so hard to see. He'll be so pleased to see a being of darkness that I control that's sentinent. I'm so proud of you Alphonse. From the day I met you, I thought you would be useless to me. But you've proven me wrong and I am pleased." She touched her hand on the door and it slowly unlocked and opened in a dark room. The room was at least as large as the main foyer where Xenree sat and played with everyone. Chains rattled in a haunting song from the middle of the darkness and Xenree lit a torch, setting it on the wall, "Alphonse...meet my dear love. Ratatosk." Ratatosk's black hair was tousled as if someone had pet him over and over again and his wrists and ankles were chained with black chains to the floor. His head was bowed and he sat with his legs under him, almost like he was praying.

bic: Saix had kept his eyes closed until Xemnas touched his shoulder. A bolt of jagged white and black energy coursed through the blue haired beserker and Saix calmed himself. "Thank you Superior. Where are we headed now?" Xemnas shrugged, taking Ignis' core from Akii and pocketing it.

Saphique gave him a pained look and picked him up again, carrying him onward through the dark corridor. "Yeah, well you can tell Xenree all about it when we get there. I'm sure she'll be thrilled to listen. Not that she ever pays any attention to me ever... She just keeps rambling on about some Ratatosk."

The ghost or Death Sword flew in a circle around Conker and his friends before stopping and growing solid to strike at them with his large sword.

 

Gexln stood up. He was tired of thinking. There was only one way he'd ever known how to do things, only one way that ever told him what he needed to know. He opened a dark corridor, walked through it, and emerged in Xenree's castle.

 

Mage sighed in relief Saix had calmed down, giving him a tight hug. She was a little bit shy to admit it, but she really did like Saix.
"I suggest we go to this castle of yours where Vexen is. Mom should be with him as well. We'd be safe for a while, and give that Core to X later." Ashir suggested, putting his coat back on.

 

Al gasped.Then calmed down.He tilted his head to the side as if considering something.He straightened up."So...is this some kind of S & M thing?" He said smirking."You said you would help me with Namine....I've decided.I want her brought here and chained up.Let's see how Roxas likes that...." His features became dark."Oh it will just break his little heart..." He said with a crooked smile.He was silent for a moment before snapping out of it,his features returning to normal."So is this a reasonable request?" Al said looking directly into Xenree's eyes.

 

"Ratatosk?" T.K asked in confusion "What exactly is a Ratatosk?"

"Eekom Bokum!" Mumbo yelled aloud as he fired off three purple orbs of magic that started to head for the death sword.

 

Xenree smiled as he met her eyes, "It is. I shall do it myself. For you Alphonse." She turned on her heel and left. As the door closed behind her, before Al could leave, Ratatosk lifted his black head and stared at Alphonse with pure black eyes. "You....you're name is Alphonse....C-come closer....stay...." his voice was quiet but he bore no signs of physical trauma.

Xenree stopped as she saw Gexln standing in her home, he looked rather....frustrated to her. "Gexln...I had not expected you back so soon. Where is T.K?"

Saphique rubbed his neck, "I've never seen him...but Xenree says he's the love of her life. Ratatosk is supposed to be our liberation. I...I don't know. She never tells me anything about him. Perhaps if you went there, she'd show you him. I've heard her talking to someone in a room before, but everytime I tried to get inside, it was locked." Saph gave him a desperate look, "You have to go there."

The Death Sword was hit hard and stood still, panting in pain. It threw back it's hood and screamed at them, showing it's undead face. "The fates of the Universe rests in Darkness. Seven thousand years ago, the Keyblade War started and when it ended, a thousand souls remained at the Graveyard. Find the right soul, and you'll find the right answer." It's growled words would've seemed like nonsense, and probably did, but that was all it said before launching a ball of glowing spirit energy toward them.

Saix nodded, "We should go home. It's best if Xemnas rests for now. I'll go on ahead and finish off the rest of these holes." Xemnas shakily grabbed Saix's shoulder, "No. I won't have you going alone."

 

"Okay I'll go there....but I need my full powers first....fighting 00X drained me" T.K explained

"Okay it's official...YOU MAKE NO DAMN SENSE!" Kazooie yelled as Banjo dashed in front of everyone holding Kazooie before firing off Fire Eggs at the Death Sword

 

Ashir wanted to growl at Xemnas' stubbornness. "Xemnas we need to go rest. There's not much we can do for now." he petted Parma, both seeming a bit sad. "Besides, Vexen and my mother might not be the best alone together. He's a mad scientist, she's an imaginative artist. See what that could do?" He frowned at the name of "Artist", it just reminded him of what he was.
Mage didn't really understand what an "artist" was, and questioned it. "Saix, w-what's an artist?" A strange click was deep in her subconscious at that name, like she had known it even before there was such thing as her existence.

 

Saphique nodded vigerously, "Yes, yes, of course, but please...don't hurt her. I believe she can change. I've heard others say that she was once nice...um, less evil than she is now. I'd like to see that."

The Death Sword laughed as it was hit repeatedly and dropped to it's ghostly knees, fading fast, "You don't see it because the answer lies where there is danger. You're afraid...afraid of what she could do to you. How much blood must be spilled before you get it. To disobey is to die, but so is to tell the truth."

Xemnas shook his head, "That is exactly why we cannot allow Saix to go on his own. He needs to rest. Continuing on like this isn't healthy." Saix was almost surprised by Mage's question. "An artist? Um, it's a person that creates something. Not a lot of artists create good things...like an artist that creates portrates is considered a good thing. On the other hand...whatever created Xenree isn't an artist of good. It's a sick creator." Xemnas looked like he was in pain from Saix's words.

 

Al sat in front of him but just out of his reach."Why are you chained up like this?" Al said wondering when Xenree was going to be back with Namine.

 

"Of course...but if she tries to harm me then I will kill her in self defense" T.K explained

The group looked at the Death Sword before Banjo started to think

 

Ratatosk jerked and strained against his chains, "For the sake of protecting the universe. These chains are here because of the lack of my Centurions. Once they've been freed, I will be free too. Xenree tells me a great many things about you and your friends. Is it true that you dislike her for her...sadism?"

Saph nodded.

 

Al stared."I don't dislike her....I enjoy her company actually..." Al didn't know what to say."You might have a roommate soon...."

 

Mage thought a bit more, noticing the pained looks of Ashir and Xemnas. She looked at her hands, thinking to herself. "Did an artist make me?" she mumbled, knowing she was created, but the idea seemed to be more real with an artist then a scientist.
"Be careful." Parma urged, her small voice slightly strong throughout the minds of everyone in range. "Don't think about it too much... The thought has the potential to make one insane."

 

"T.K? I lost track of him when i attacked his adversary" Gexln said. He looked down at his blade out of the corner of his eye. "Tell me. What do you plan to do once you have captured him?" Gexln asked, his voice still calm.

 

Xenree shrugged as if his question was completely natural, "I plan to kill him. He threatens my existence, what else would there be for me to do with him?" She glanced at Gexln's blade for a long time, "Is there something the matter, Gexln?"

Ratatosk laughed, his head tipping forward to his chest again and the chains rattled, "That's good to know." He stared at the lone torch lighting his room and closed his eyes, "You like her and yet you challenge her. A brave boy indeed. Xenree takes orders from me alone. She has been misguided by my words though. Her mind clouded by rage and the Darkness that created her, she believes she is doing something good. The power to create a new universe....to alter this one to one of my creation." flicking his eyes open, the light of the torch spread around the room. Individual flames ignited around the room, suspended in air. "What makes you hate the light so? Is it simply because Namine won't love you? Or is it not hate you feel...but mear jealousy. Hmm, something to ponder in my isolation, yes. Alphonse...would you do me a favor?" Ratatosk's eyes glittered darkly as he reached a hand out to him, "Say nothing of what I've told you about Xenree and tell Xenree nothing of what I will tell you now."

Xemnas brushed the hair from his eyes and lightened his mood. "We should rest. We are all tired. Once we've rested, Saix, I will permit you to leave and help the others." Saix grumbled, but his eyes were closing from exhaustion. "As you say, Superior."
Akii danced around Zexion, her energy limitless and Alice stood frozen to the spot, staring at the little silver haired girl. "It can't be...She cannot be the Akira I remember. The Akira who desimated the Keyblade Badlands where we fought to end the war. No, that person was a full grown woman."

The Death Sword laughed, like nails down a chalkboard, "There will come a day when Darkness engulfs Light. Find the Spirit connected to Darkness and you have your Salvation." The Death Sword turned a crumbly black and exploded into a thousand fragments of darkness. They swarmed together to form a glowing purple core and it floated down to rest where the Death Sword had knelt.
