Linyah sat in the stands of the Coliseum watching Sora train with Phil to be able to do the games. A smile crosses her lips as she watches Sora and Phil fight with another about what being a hero really is. Standing up, Linyah moved down the steps to help break the two up. Meanwhile under the stands, a fiery figure stood there with an evil smile. Next to the man was a soldier looking person, with spiked blonde hair. The soldier looking man had his eyes closed before muttering, "What do you want me to do this time Hades?" Hades laughed softly and looked out to where Sora and the others were, "We need to defeat that kid there and Herc. Though, both seem to be suckers when their friends are in danger…" Hades laughs again as the man sighs and looks towards Sora and a girl holding him back.
Linyah sighed softly as Sora and the others were laying in the lobby sound asleep before the competition tomorrow. Her form moves past the doors to the stage where the battles will take place. She stood there looking at the night sky, before moving her hands to the hilts of her daggers. Hades stood there in the stands with that same evil smile, before snapping his fingers. Shadows form around Linyah, before taking shape into three large bodies. Linyah stood there looking to the heartless, before her body turns to head to the doors. Once near she reaches her hand out, only to see the doors become sealed. Linyah stood there in shock, before looking behind her at the large bodies moving towards her. Her hands move as she pulls the daggers out of their sheaths. Hades stood there watching before disappearing into some smoke.
Linyah's form moved quickly as she swings her blades towards the heartless, while trying to dodge their attacks. One of the large bodies moves a hand out, and catches Linyah hard. Her body hits the ground hard, and slides a bit, before stopping near the edge of the ring. Linyah slowly pushed her form up, only to see the heartless come towards her. Her hands move around to grab her daggers as she keeps her eyes on the heartless. Her hands find the hilts and quickly pull them up, but she stayed where she was as she watches the heartless disappear from a long blade running through them. Linyah stood up as she put her daggers away, before rubbing her arm as she stared at the man. The person stood there before walking towards Linyah with his sword at his side. The two stood there in silence, before the person sighs and asks, "Are…you ok?"
Linyah nodded as she smiles a bit, "Thank you for helping me." The man nodded as he watches Linyah head to the door to try to open it. Though the door would not budge at all, Linyah sighs and looks down, "Guess they won't know it is lock for a while…" Her form turns as she heads to the edge of the stage to sit, but stops looking to the man again, "I do not think I've seen you here before…" The man gazed at Linyah, before walking up to her, "I just don't like to be out in public much…Why are you with the other kid?" Linyah stared at the man, before looking to the sky, "To help him in his quest, but also to find out more of who I am…" The man closes his eyes, before turning around to see smoke form. His eyes narrow a bit, until he looks at Linyah who is still standing there looking at the stars.
Hades appears from the smoke with a laugh, making Linyah turn and stare at him, "Well, well, well! Looks like we got our own little guppy!" Linyah moves her hands to grab her daggers, but stops as she sees the man, who helped her before, stand in front of her. Hades chuckles and speaks coldly, "Remember our DEAL Cloud? You better hold your end of it!" Cloud sighs and turns around facing Linyah and mutters, "I'm sorry…" Linyah stood there confused, before she made a gasping sound. Cloud's fist had hit her in the gut hard enough to force the air from her lungs. Linyah's eyes widen as she stares at Cloud, before her form slumps over and on to the ground. Hades laughs again, before snapping his fingers. Black clouds lift up Linyah's body and bring her to Hades. Cloud watches before looking away and heading to the doors. Hades watches as he snaps his fingers again and the clouds wrap tightly around Linyah's body and pull her into the smoke with Hades.
By morning, Sora was up standing outside of the ring wondering about Linyah. Donald and Goofy were talking to Phil to see if he saw anything. Sora sighs and looks over to the stage to see Cloud standing there watching Sora. Sora turns and runs towards the stairs of the stage. Donald and goofy follow, and Phil tries but is stopped by a force field. Sora stood there before asking, "You know where Linyah is don't you!?" Cloud closes his eyes, before Hades laughs and appears next to Cloud, "Let's have a little bet shrimp. If you win…" Hades snaps his fingers and Linyah's body appears behind him, still held tight in the black smoke, "You can have your friend back. But if you loose, you and your friends have to die." Sora's hands ball up into a fist, before staring at Linyah behind Hades. His eyes look to Hades with a glare before muttering, "Fine!" Hades laughs as he disappears with Linyah, before appearing on the stands. Sora holds his hand up as the keyblade appears. Cloud watches Sora before sighing and grabs his sword. Linyah's eyes slowly open as she stares down at Cloud attacking Sora. Her eyes widen, before screaming, "STOP CLOUD!" Hades glares at Linyah before snapping his fingers again so the smoke covered her mouth. Cloud on the other hand swung his sword to make Sora back off, before looking towards Hades and Linyah. His eyes narrow, before swinging his sword down towards Hades. A shockwave comes from the sword and heads towards Hades.
Hade's eyes narrow, before he disappears and throws Linyah in the way of the attack. Sora watches in horror, before screaming, "No!!" Linyah's eyes widen, before the heart of her necklace glows brightly. The shockwave fades away as it nears her body, while the smoke disappears. Linyah sat there on the stands confused on what had just happened. Cloud sighs and looks to Sora before walking off towards the doors. Once he nears Sora he mutters, "You may want to make sure your friend is ok…I know Hades will be back…" Sora nodded, and started to head to the stands, but stops as Hades stood there glaring at all four, "Cloud I am SHOCKED that you would EVER turn against me! For this I hope you enjoy dogs so very much!" Hades laughs darkly, and disappears as a loud pounding noise comes forth. Linyah was running down the stands, but jumping as she sees a big, black dog standing there and growing towards her. She stumbles back a bit as two more heads turn towards her growling. Sora stands near the door screaming Linyah's name as she is stuck on the stands. One of the heads pull back, before thrusting forward to bite down. Linyah screams and covers her head as she awaits to feel the dog bite down.
"You're alright!" Was what Linyah heard as she looks up to see a buffed man holding the dog's mouth open and pushing back. Phil bellow jumps and screams, "HERC! Your back in time!" Herc laughs and pushes the dog back and into the other stands, before he looks to Linyah, "You need to get out of here. I can take care of Cerberus." Linyah nodded as she headed down the stands and followed after Sora and the others. Meanwhile in the lobby Linyah stood there looking to Sora and the others as they talk to Phil about what happened. Her eyes look for Cloud, but after not seeing him, she turns around and heads back out to the arena with Sora, Donald and Goofy yelling for her to come back. Outside Linyah stood there with her daggers out as she stands there looking at Hercules holding Cloud as he fends off Cerberus.
Linyah started to move forward, but stops as Sora grabs her shoulder with a smile, "Lets fight this together!" Linyah nodded as a smile forms on her lips, "Lets!" The two run forward towards Cerberus with their weapons out. Sora with his keyblade, and Linyah with her daggers. Sora swings the keyblade down at Cerberus' middle head, causing the dog to hit the ground hard while Linyah moved forward. Her blades glowing while the moon on her necklace was glowing as well. She jumps at Cerberus as she swings her daggers down at the base of the neck. Cerberus cries in pain as Sora follows behind Linyah and slams his keyblade into the other neck. Hades on the other hand stands there in anger as he snaps his fingers. Cerberus disappears, making Sora and Linyah hit the ground a bit hard. The two lay there looking at another, before laughing as they stand up. Hades growls again before disappearing as Hercules walks to the two to thank them for helping. With the thanks and Goodbyes said, the four head towards the exit, before stopping as Linyah looks to Cloud standing near the exit. Her form moves towards him while Sora, Donald, and Goofy wait.
"Guess you can't forgive me for what I've done.." Cloud muttered as he looks to Linyah. She smiles a bit and shakes her head, "I can forgive you. You helped me before and when I was in trouble. I do thank you." Cloud stares at her, before looking away and heads back to the lobby, but stops. He turns and holds out a black bag towards Linyah, "You need better weapons.." Linyah took the bag as she watches Cloud walk off. Upon opening the bag, her eyes gaze at two short swords with a lion head near the guard on the hilt. A smile crosses her lips as she puts the new sheaths on her hips and the new weapons in them, before running after Sora, Donald and Goofy.
