"I'm still not sure about this."

"It'll be fine, Ienzo. Xehanort knows what he's doing."

"Master Ansem didn't approve this. Even, back me up."

"I'm afraid I can't. This could very well work. And you of all people should know he's been declining as of late. This switch is stuck, Dilan, give me a hand."

"….I still can't shake that something isn't –right- about this."

"It'll be fine, Ienzo. Don't worry."

"…..I'll try Elaeus."

"HEY! XEY! You alright up there man!?"

"Weather conditions seem to be fine….Help me get down."

"Don't drop him Braig."

"I wasn't going to, chill. You ok there Xehanort?"

"I'm fine. You can put me down now. What time is it?"

"11:56."

"We need to be quick. If the calculations are correct, this needs to happen before midnight. The polarity switch could be fatal. Someone check the meter."

"M'on it. Everything seems fine."

"All systems functioning and all meters on the correct mark."

"Let's get started, then."

"11:57."

"Keep watching the clock, Elaeus. Dilan, the switch."

"Got it."

A series of beeps and clicking. That was all that could be heard for the next minute. The silence between the five apprentices was tense; as if saying anything would send everything crashing down.

"11:58."

"Braig, hold this for me. Even, get those dials. We need to work faster."

"I still think something isn't right….."

"Dilan, the meters?"

"All systems are a go."

"Braig, attach this to the generator. The second plug."

"….we should stop right now. I'm getting a really bad feeling, guys."

"11:59."

"Elaeus-"

"I've got it."

"We shouldn't...no…wait no…that's not right…Braig shut that off that shouldn't be happening!"

"….holy—Xehanort!"

"What is it Dilan, this isn't exactly the best time."

"Abort! Code red!"

"The calculations never-"

"Fuck, it's stuck!"

"Disconnect!"

"The levels aren't dropping fast enough!"

"This-"

"What the-"

All that followed were the screams of agony and panic, voices so full of fear and life slowly becoming as hollow as the darkness that was swallowing them.

12:00:01 am

It had been Valentines Day for one second.

The Shadows accepted their hearts gladly.

Every day was Valentines Day in the darkness.
