Video Game: Kingdom Hearts SOS: The Road To Light

"So you are saying that there is others like us in there? Alright lets go." Standing up and dusting herself off Karina stepped away from Beuce. "Hey, um.... take care of him while I am gone, okay?" She quickly asked looking at the still passed out Beuce. She didn't know what to do to help him, but maybe if she managed to find the others one of them would have an idea. "Luna if you know anything that could help, that would be great, but I am going in to survey who all made it here." She informed the girl before turning and walking into the tunnel system.​

 

He wasn't sure where all these new people were comin from, but at least there was a good number of hands helping out. He still didn't get the names of the people that were already here. As fancy as Faust's introduction was, Aux simply replied. "And I'm Aux..." He paused as if he was going to add a title, but simply left it at that.
"Yeah, you guys can go on ahead," Aux told Karina and Luna as they seemed eager to charge in. "Think I'll stay here in the main whale hub." He took a seat one one of the intact boards and sighed as he folded his arms.
There was a moment of silence as nothing but the sound of Geppetto hammering nails into the rafts could be heard. He was alone with the pun making mage, the princess who slapped him, an unconscious Beuce, and an ever silent Steel.

He tapped his fingers awkwardlyon his arm as he looked around at the baron mouth. His eyes eventually fell on Jiminy. "Y'know... you seem like real swell folks for helping us out. Tell me young fella... Do you know what a conscience is? Because to Pinoke, I'm his conscience. I keep him outta trouble by telling him what's right and-"
"-Karina, wait up,' Aux said, standing and making a quick fast walk towards the stomach chambers.

Aux and Karina were fast travelled to Chamber 2!

CHAMBER 2
(Aux, Karina)

Left, Right or back?

 

Walking forward it was a matter of time before Aux followed after her. Karina shook her head before looking towards him. "Already gave up on them?" She laughed a bit. "Lets go. I am going to the right, see what is down there, follow or not your choice but I know that you don't care for people, but who knows who you will find out beyond there." Karina stated before waving him off to follow if he wanted. Karina wondered back to those who she left back in the chamber, but she needed to figure out where everyone else was. She wanted, no needed, to know who was still safe. She hadn't seen a lot of them since the battle and she couldn't help but worry. ​

 

"Not giving up if you don't try," Aux shrugged. As Karina mentioned the idea of who could be down there, he could only hope that at least Kaida was alright. He knew she could take care of herself, but he was on decent ground with her again and didn't want anything to ruin that. "Yeah that's me... guy who doesn't care," he said in a sarcastic tone. He took a quick look at the left path before slowly following Karina to the right.
The path was fairly straight forward without any crossroads for a couple chambers

"I still haven't met half of this group, I mean, there was Luna, Beuce, Steel, Kaida, Stratos, and-"
He paused his words as he locked his eyes on Ananta. "Dammit it's you!" He realized how rude that was and instantly tried to correct it. "I mean, thank goodness it's you."

Nailed it.

His head tried to wander elsewhere onto Castur. The one who last he saw, tried to kill him because of Karina's desire to off him as well.
This was just not a fun room for him to be in right now.

CHAMBER 14
(Ananta, Aux, Castur, Karina)

Which way do you wish to go?

Straight, Left, or back?

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAMBER 28
(AJ, Kaida, Kairi)

As the group approached the dead end, they came across a young boy scratching the back of his head as he looked around at the walls. He had spiky brown hair and bright red and white clothing. On his feet were also large yellow shoes. "Aww man... another dead end," the boy sighed.
"Sora!" Kairi called out, running up to the boy. "I'm so happy you're okay."
"Aww, I coulda taken care of myself," the boy chuckled. "You know you can always count on me in a fight."
"Well, I wasn't concerned at first, because Riku was with you."
"Oh..."
"But then I started to worry once I heard you got separated. So I got our new friends to help out," Kairi smiled. "This is AJ, and that's Kaida!"
Sora raised an eyebrow. "Are they related."
Kairi chuckled. "Heheheeeee. I don't think so."

Sora waved his hand at the two as he jogged up tot them. "Well, thanks a lot for chipping in. Y'know there are some real creepy monsters in here...." He offered his hand to Kaida to shake.
"I'm Sora by the way! Nice to meet you Kaida!" he smiled.

 

As they walked into the next room, there was signs of other life which wasn't quite who Karina wanted to see. Aux had started listing who he met when he noticed the group and didn't seem pleased, but tried to hide it. "No, no, you're right, dammit is right." She corrected Aux as she glanced at Ananta then at Castur. "Well you aren't dead Arctus, so that is something." She stated rather dismissively as she looked around. She was still a little confused and didn't want to face whatever was happening here. "So do you know who else is here, who is alive?" She added surveying their path choices quickly. ​

 

​

Castur folded his arms and looked around at the directions there were to choose from and...there wasn't much in the way of options. He briefly considered trying to use the full might of his gravity to...gravity his way through a new opening but that didn't really make any sense at all and he was beginning to wonder if playing the role of Arctus for so long messed with his psyche. "Hm...this is gonna be an annoying maze isn't it..." He muttered in annoyance.

Before he could say anything else to Ananta, Karina and Aux popped up causing Castur to grin right up until she spoke his wrong name. "The name's Cast–wait you know what? You're too stubborn to correct so just...keep calling me whatever." He shook his head and sighed. "Hey there. You two came just in time. If we had been stuck here any long I would have had to resort to cannibalism in desperation and I don't think Ananta has much meat on her bones. And the others? They don't look particularly tasty." He took a few steps closer and noticed the way Aux was looking at him. "Oh don't worry about me attacking you again. We're good. I was playing a character and...eh it's too convoluted to go any deeper than that. Moving on, I don't know who else from your old gang who's here. There was an old man but...uh...I think we left him behind. Don't worry about it though. He wanted to fix a boat. We didn't just abandon an old man to move faster."

 

What Castur said felt almost more insulting than re-assuring.
"Yeah, I'm playing a character too. It's called 'the guy who doesn't like to be attacked for fun.' And since you don't like things all convoluted, I'll keep the character description nice and simple," He stepped closer to Castur until he was within arm's length "He does not... like being attacked... for fun." Aux said with a glare. "And Japello is fine. He's with a couple of the others back in the mouth of the whale."

 

"Glad you are finally learning." Karina added with a bit of a smile as she continued to look at their options. "And if you are that hungry then we better get moving and find a way out of this place. That or you could just stop being a big baby and suck it up like a real man." She suggested randomly pointing to the left path. "I once heard that good adventurers go left, so why not?" She suggested listening to the banter between Castur and Aux. "Don't worry no one will be fighting anyone right now. After all, clearly Arctus is too weak to be bothered to fight." She added just giving them a bad time, not wanting to wait too long. "So are you coming or what?" She asked as she entered the left hall. ​

 

CHAMBER 5
(Ignis, Kel, Marx)

"But I have to find the others! We aren't done playing yet!" Pinocchio whined.
The little wooden puppet ran off ahead.

Pinocchio ran straight ahead!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

CHAMBER 27
(AJ, Kaida, Kairi, Sora)

Chamber 28 is now closed off!
Where would you like to go?

Straight, or left?

Sora walked beside Kairi with arms bent behind his head. He seemed rather carefree, as if he didn't have a care in the world.
"So are you guys from another world to? Riku, Sora and I built a raft to go and see what's out there!" Kairi cheered.
"Yeah, Kairi's from another world too... but she's too young to remember."
"Looks like we didn't get very far though..." She said, looking around the world.
"Still! This would've never happened back on our island! So bizzare..." Sora said with a smile.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CHAMBER 16

The party fast traveled to chamber 16!
Where would you like to go?

Straight or right?

Seeing Ananta's defeated expression made Aux feel guilty as he sighed to himself. He didn't hate the girl, but he didn't like being told how to feel either. From the looks of it, Karina was the same.
"Why didn't we go left the first time then?" Aux grumbled to himself.

 

Glancing back for a moment at Ananta, Karina shook her head. "Oh geez, I was making a shot at Arctus not you, don't get yourself too worked up about it." She hated to see Ananta cry, it was pathetic, and then it would mean she would have to pretend to understand emotions and comfort her, and none of that sounded like fun to Karina. She then shot Aux a glare. "Because I didn't feel like it." She stated bluntly before looking at their choices. "Alright mister big shot, if you are so snarky, then why don't you choose the direction next time." ​
