Video Game: Kingdom Hearts SOS: The Road To Light

​

"This one's mine!" Kel had made the next strike on the battleship while it wasn't looking. Despite being of the same kind of heartless as the one that they had only recently defeated, this one looked like it was only slightly smaller than its predecessor. Would that make it a jr then? An odd thing to think about at this point in time, but overall something he briefly had considered. Following his fight strike, he followed it up with a horizontal strike that very quickly turned into a flurry of strikes that smacked around the largish sized heartless. The finishing blow was a heavy strike that sent it flying into the last remaining heartless.

While most of the people had gone off to the beach, following Lilo and her dog, and their target, Stich, Stratos had lagged behind. For his project he needed something sharp, and with no knives being too present and his keyblade being something that he wasn't exactly able to use out in the open, he had to improvise a bit. As such, with a bit of searching he had eventually a stone lying around that had a sharp enough edge that he could make due with it enough. Trying to work swiftly and carefully on his project, the boy let out small exclamations of pain as he had accidentally messed up a few times and had the stone knick himself by mistake. All the same, the boy continued to work until he realized just how far behind from everyone else he had managed to get. Beginning to make his way swiftly the boy was a bit lost and so his journey took an even longer time then normal until he had finally made his way down to the sandy shores. What he saw there was not exactly the welcoming or mundane sight of beach going activities he was expecting.

On the beach stood not only his allies but a giant whale, shark, thing looking man. The threat was immediately evident by his comrades already having their keyblades drawn, though was only reinforced by them fighting and continuing to strike at the enemy before them. With a scowl forming on his face, suddenly angered by the disturbance that the fish person was causing to both them and the beach goers. Putting his stuff away, the boy summoned his keyblade to his hand and began focusing as towards his opponent, wanting to be rid of them as fast as possible. As he did, despite the island being filled with nothing but palm trees there was a sudden flow and fall of cherry blossoms, descending from the sky as everyone in the area seemed to slow down until they were all stopped. In that instant that time seemed to freeze, Stratos vanished from the spot he was standing at, appearing behind the whale man and skidding across the sand as he finished his arrival. As he did, a large slash mark appeared in the air over the man, causing an explosive force to soon be carried alongside it as the boy turned to face his opponent.

Twirling his keyblade, looking at the others he said, "sorry for taking so long, but let's take this big guy down! " Dismissing his keyblade for a moment, Stratos charged his now free hand with a red, burning magical energy. As it continued to flow into his hand, growing brighter as it did, the boy clenched his hand into a fist and began to rush forwards towards his target. As his fingers were formed into their clenched state, the glow began to grow even brighter, only for Stratos to then throw a punch at the back of his opponent. As the attack connected, a large resounding explosion was formed across his back, fire bursting out as a result of this one fist bumping into his foe. Backing off, Stratos wasn't about to pause to survey the damage dealt, instead summoning his keyblade back to his hand and charging it with magical energy once more. The energy flowed to the tip of the blade, forming a small aqueous sphere, before the boy fired off four blasts of aquatic power all at once at the man. As each of the bubbles connected against the target, the water broke its spherical form, exploding with a large amount of brute force behind the attack.

Steel sighed to himself as he continued to blast away at Gantu with magic spells. Fire burned and lightning surged as the caster contemplated to himself just how many self-righteous meatheads had found a way to fit their oversized egos into this one multi-verse. He left the thought to simmer as he took a brief analysis of his surroundings. After Ananta, caught up in her own little world as she was, had abruptly interjected into his prompting and come up with a plan on her own, the group seemed to be set on going through with it.

Aux had really been tossed around though. He sent the other a quick healing spell before continuing his own assault. He crept closer to Gantu's feet steadily before attempting to rush forward with a barrier surge in an attempt to do as Ananta said and try to knock him off of his feet. His attack was apparently matched in time with another, as Stratos came zooming in with a somehow physically noticeable slash and a burst of cherry petals. Their newly arrived ally continued to attack Gantu while Steel contemplated his next contribution.

Luna dodged out of the way of the battleship's attack. She gracefully glided across the ice to avoid the cannons that the battleship was sending her way. Aislinn and Kel had been attacking the battleship for a bit. When she stopped, she felt a surge of strength flow through her. "What's going on?!" The princess looked at her hands and then at her blade before looking at her two teammates. "Hey guys!! We might be able to finish this!!" Kel went in for the killing blow for the next battleship. Once it was destroyed, he went in to injure another battleship. The final battleship was getting weaker. She looked over to Aislinn as she raced over to it. "Do it!!!!" Luna cheered on Aislinn as she dealt the final blow to the swarm of heartless. Luna looked around her and saw that there were no more heartless in sight. "We did it!! Good work guys!!" She smiled as she looked over to the two. Aislinn had then requested Luna to go check on Pocahontas. "Go check on the princess!" Luna nodded her head before creating another path of ice in front of her. She raced her way down the path in search for the native princess. "Pocahontas!! Pocahontas!! Where are you??"

Knowing full well she hadn't been particularly helpful during this fight, Kaida sought to change that by running in when she saw Aux stun his head and leave him open. Kaida pointed her keyblade from the distance she was at and shot thunderbell straight at him. With the almost beautiful sound as the bell slammed into him, Gantu was thrown back once more, this time seeming like he was finally at the end of the line. Unfortunately, he seemed to still be kicking despite the knockback leaving him on the ground. And it left Lilo now further away from the team. Kaida bit her lip and hoped that her trying to help out didn't just screw up everything, especially since she hadn't been doing much.

"Greatly underestimated." Kel couldn't help but too correct John in that regard. Before they could truly relax though, the drums from earlier had returned and in tow were the natives. There was a clear misunderstanding that had occurred that the chief seems to not what to hear their side of it. What more, the dark aura that briefly flared about him was very alarming. "Great, things just took a turn for the worse." They couldn't just stand around and let John get executed when he had less to do with what happened to Kocoum and his men.

Nanaki had returned following the aftermath of all that and out of everything that was told to them the fact that there was some sort of horsemen running around without a head wasn't hard to believe. Still surprising to hear though. With an affirmed nod, Kel looked towards Aislinn and Luna. "You heard him, let's see if we can stop at least one of these group from fighting."

 

Faust didn't think he would need much ion way of supplies for this journey the only thing he did grab from the from the small trading post they found themselves by was a thick winter jacket to replace the thin overcoat of his servant's jacket he still had on from the party. He didn't feel to comfortable spending much of anything on someone else's tab even if the someone happened to have access to a literal kingdom's treasury. He also didn't want to waste too much time before the group would need to leave to help stop the effects of this extremely strange storm. After quickly running by the purchase by the trading post's owner Faust threw on the thick jacket as he waited by the door for everyone else to be ready.

 

Gantu started to leave and Ananta saw that Lilo was still on his back. "Gantu, no!" she yelled out, running towards the giant alien. She reached to grab him but was too late, he had already jumped to his ship and was going off. Nani screamed from behind as Ananta clenched her fist and punched her other hand in frustration. She gritted her teeth and turned around, specks of tears in her eyes from the sheer frustration. They worked hard for this and now Lilo was gone.

Aux went off on Stitch, causing Ananta to frown at him. Though he did make a comment about her and that made her immediately turn that frown into an upset look. She rubbed her arm and just stood there, repeating everything that happened up until now in her head that she figured he didn't like. She was broken out of this when she heard Stitch talk. Her eyes blinked as she tried to process that he could speak a language they all could understand.

The following events confirmed the party was going to rescue Lilo. Ananta smiled pumped her fist into the air. "Let's go!" she yelled out. She pulled her hand back down and cleared her throat. Her eyes wandered over to Aux as they had already started to leave, but she wanted to talk to him. So before they started to leave, she approached Aux. "Hey Aux...um...do I really make you that uncomfortable?" she asked, trying to keep a little quiet. "Sorry...I...I'm not very good at these sorts of things..." She rubbed her arm once more.

"And sorry for sitting on your hat in Pride Lands...it's a cool hat, though." she said, looking up at him.​

 

​

Beuce had said, 'Not much. The blizzard was too dense to get far.' He had not expected much of an answer anyways. He looked up at the mountain and could tell that the blizzard just got more serious. "I guess we will find out when we get there," he said offhandedly. Anna had said to take what they needed in the trading post but he did not think that it would be all that necessary. He guessed that it was time to go up the mountain. He started walking up the mountain with the others.

Ignis was waiting for the rest of the group as she slowly began walking outside of the town. She wasn't planning on going far, but figured that it wouldn't hurt to get a head start since she didn't have anything else to do. Though being alone certainly gave room for thoughts and memories to pass through her head. In this case she was having flashbacks to when she first started wandering in the first place, after losing her body to that spell. It wasn't too different from a night like this, all things considered, with her walking through a forest completely covered in snow. The only difference was that she was actually used to the weather at this point and wasn't falling over on her hands and knees ready to curl up and let the cold do it's job.

"Glad no one's around right now, or else I might start reminiscing out loud." She chuckled a little at the bad joke, kind of thankful for the few moments alone.

 

Stratos's expression didn't soften any as the whale man had managed to get away, his grip tightening around his keyblade. As the group of natives to this world once again mentioned the term of "ohana," Stratos's face only seemed to be more indignant as he looked to the sky, merely mumbling, "no one gets left behind. No one gets forgotten." With his hand shaking for a brief moment, he let out a sigh, trying to keep his own anger in check for a moment before turning to the rest of the group. "Well, how are we going to go catch up with them?"

 

As Faust left the shop to rejoin the group on their expedition on the mountain to find the newly crowned queen he began to whistle a light hearted tune int the quite cold night air. He didn't think that the new queen would be found easily this night even if the blizzard had began to slow down, but it would be a sight to see none the less. Just the thought of them traveling to stop the a mystic winter clutching the land reminded him of the stories he would hear from his childhood when drunken sailors would recite their wondrous tales of them sailing across the chained isles once they were a few tankards in. When he came across the gathered group he felt his hand began to clench in excitement despite the carefree smile never leaving his face.

 

​

Unfortunately Aislinn was right. There was no way that Radcliff was going to listen to either Aislinn or Luna and there was only a slightly greater chance that he'd listen to him. However, as it was a slight chance the odds of it coming true were extremely slim. Neither party was going to listen to them left them with very little options on what to do right now. The horseman was their best chance provided Nanaki could tell them guide them to him.

 

Ananta sighed and looked at Stratos. "Our gliders will work, I suppose...?" she suggested, looking to Aux. She rubbed the back of her neck and wondered if talking to him all of the sudden was a good idea. Sure nothing too bad would come out of it, but hey, it was worth a shot. Even then, they had to work fast if they wanted to catch Gantu. "Let's...just...go... " she said, looking at Aux.
