The New Keyblade War Part 3- The death of a monarch

Chapter Three- The Death of the Monarch

“Do you know how the King died?†asked Donald.

“Yes.†The old Keyblade Knight began a long yarn as the four heroes sat down to hear the tale. It was the middle of the night when it began to transpire. The king was walking down the halls of the castle. He heard a noise and couldn’t help but discover the source of the commotion. He took out the card of light he had used while he helped Riku in Castle Oblivion, he used it as a candle and looked around the halls. He looked to his left and noticed that there was noticeably a chip in part of the painting.

“Hm, I’ll have Donald cast a spell on the brooms to paint that.†He thought to himself.

King Mickey walked down the hallway and next to the door to the throne there appeared to be a suit of armor that fell down.

“That’s weird.†He muttered to himself.

He turned around to see a face behind him a face barley visible and shaded in the darkness. But even barely visible the King knew instantly who it was.

“Xehanort!†cried the King.

“King Mickey, it’s been a while hasn’t it!†said the wicked man cold and slowly.

“But how! Riku and Sora . . .â€

“Riku and Sora did destroy my Nobody, but not before a little side effect happened.â€

“What?â€

“When Riku was permanently cleansed of my presence the last remains of me were free in a type of heartless very weak I possessed a nobody. Eventually I even became fully human with the help of this book.â€

“A book. How could that have helped you.â€

“This book contained information and spells written by a wicked wizard that was frozen by his two apprentices for his cruel intentions. Eventually this book was discovered by Ienzo and kept even when he became Zexion. When Zexion was killed the book remained in Castle Oblivion, I came to possess this great treasure after I returned to the Castle. From there I learned how to create an artificial heart, the heart became fully real with the help of the chamber of awakening, there I slept in reforming my original memories into the heart and absorbed becoming the whole Xehanort. Now I shall continue my quest to create an empire of DARKNESS!â€

“Not if I stop you Xehanort!†The king drew his Keyblade.

“I’d prefer Ansem actually.â€

“That name doesn’t belong to you!â€

“Why does it matter, no one using it now are they?â€

The King leaped to Xehanort swinging his blade to the right but Xehanort vanished. The king desperately turned to find him.

“Right here.†He said from behind.

He blasted the king with a blast similar to Riku’s dark fiagra. The king rushed to Xehanort firing a fire spell with the keyblade. Xehanort was able to dodge without even moving his feet and laughed. The quick King tried to surprise Xehanort by slicing him while he was preoccupied with dodging the spell but as he was about to strike Xehanort a keyblade protected him. Xehanort pushed King Mickey back to the floor and then looked coldly at him with a frightening grin.

The keyblade Xehanort possessed was as black as night and appeared to have small saw like patter on the stick part of the keyblade and a skeleton key shape on the key part of the keyblade. The two charged straight at each other and the passed each other. King Mickey fell down to the ground having many wounds. Xehanort slowly walked towards the King, the wounds and tears in his robe vanished as he walked.

“The power of my Keyblade is unmatched. King Mickey Mouse, I hope you’re prepared to become a heartless.â€

Just as Xehanort was about to lower his glowing Keyblade a piercing blinding light appeared. Through this golden Teloportation hole came the Keyblade Knight.

“Warrior of Darkness I banish thee from this castle.â€

Xehanort covering his face from the light blurted at the Keyblade Knight.

“We’ll meet again TERRA!!â€

Terra looked down at King Mickey.

“My dear King, you will rest in peace in my Kingdom Hearts.†Said Terra.

As the story reached its’ end Sora, Riku, Donald and Goofy were too shocked to describe how they felt.

“Xehanort, is alive?†asked Sora.

“Yes.†Said Terra. “Do not dwell on this though, there is much at hand. Xehanort’s Keyblade is very powerful because it can completely control all Heartless as well as greatly influence the Darkness in one’s heart. He is gathering what heartless are left in the worlds, when you sealed my Kingdom Hearts it allowed the worlds to be restored as well as return the hearts stolen by the heartless, however Xemnas used the heartless to collect hearts in the Nobodies world to create his own Kingdom Hearts. The only mass of Heartless left is mainly in The World That Never Was and the deep dungeons in the Radiant Garden.ora you must gather a great army to fight Xehanort.â€

“An army, how could I make up an army?â€

“Don’t worry, there is one already made that will serve you.â€
