Entering through the doorway to the large room that Roxas had trained in for a little bit of his earlier days of the Organization, he was relieved to see no one thing inside of it. Roxas slowly walked into the rectangle of the room when a white void appeared in front of the boy and the first emotion in his being was shock.
"You…" What stood in front of Roxas was the Samurai Nobody, his nobody servant that he controlled. Silence broke out between the two since the being could not speak. Roxas knew that some of his servants had minds of their own and could understand right from wrong, that however did not stop them from faithfully serving him during the hard times. The only question was which said was it on.
"…" Nothing came from the nobody as Roxas took a step forward and took the initiative.
"Leave now and prevent the other types of nobodies from harassing me, go…" Roxas gave the order and the being slowly bowed and preceded to follow his masters orders and vanished into white nothingness. Taking this as a yes Roxas enter the Naught's Skyway through the door. Opening the door, he saw what appeared to be a lance charge straight at his head. Rolling underneath the weapon, he summons his keyblades and held Oathkeeper in front of whatever was attacking him. Roxas saw the weapon return to its wielder and then and then the opponent was obvious to the boy.
"Roxas."
"Xaldin…" Roxas said and took his signature dual wielding fighting stance. "Do not stand in my way; otherwise you will suffer the same fate as Demyx." He threatened the man who laughed at this attempt.
"You stand no chance against me here Roxas, you cannot touch me out here and you are trapped to the ground of the castle." Xaldin explained and formed his Lindworm into the Dragoon weapon. "Surrender now and I will have your death me a quick and painless one. He said as Roxas threw Oblivion at him which was his answer. "Very well, wind guard me." Xaldin said and the lances unattached from each other and formed around him. Roxas resummoned Oblivion and looked over his options, something he could only do in a calm state.
"He has about every advantage I can think of, speed, strength, flexibility, maneuverability, everything." Roxas thought as a lance charged at him and stabbed into the castle and quickly returned to the wielder. Roxas began to run up the ran while shooting pillars of light at the nobody who easily dodged them and with a smirk. Running up the second ramped, he quickstepped out of the way of two lances and slashed at them to try and break them but to no avail.
"You should have accepted my offer before Roxas."
"Shut up!" Roxas shouted as he began to let his rage overtake his judgment. Suddenly, a Dragoon nobody shot past the boy who made the first mistake and turned around to see what was behind him. What he saw was about twenty Dragoon nobodies ready to fight but Roxas then was inflicted with an excruciating pain in his right leg. Roxas shouted in pain and fell to one knee and made the second mistake and turned his head to see what hit him. What happened was a ball of wind shot out of the lances and nailed Roxas in the right calf muscle. What Roxas didn't see was a Dragoon close the distance between itself and the boy. Before he could blink, he saw the being slice into two pieces and vanished. To the sides of Roxas stood two Samurai nobodies who were protecting their leader from harm, emotionless as ever. Taking this as a sign that his back is secure, he turned his attention to the bigger problem, Xaldin.
"The Samurai nobody still follow you I see, very interesting." Xaldin said surprised by the discovery. What he didn't notice was Roxas beginning to glow white. Xaldin readied himself for whatever the boy was preparing to do. Suddenly Roxas vanished with a streak of light being left behind and pillars of light raced to the wind user who used three lances to block the magic. Xaldin heard something behind him and sent a lance to his back and saw it was a white keyblade glowing white and spinning rapidly. At the same moment, a black keyblade went towards his front and he moved another lance to block it. As soon as the keyblades appeared, they vanished but not before Xaldin could see a very anger Roxas' face with his hood removed. The two keyblades came back but at different angles and unknown to either combatant, the lances were starting to weaken form the constant abuse of light and keyblade strikes. Another wave of light and spinning keyblades hit the lances and again until the count was up to five.
"Enough!" Xaldin shouted and began to glow a greenish aura around his being. Roxas returned to the castle's walkway but glides on the surface and in a bright light up the walls to avoid the lances strikes. After a minutes of dodging lances, Lindworm formed up and formed the mighty Dragoon and began to shoot concentrated wind at the keyblade master who did probably the most gutsy move he has every done, he dove straight into the blast while using the pillars of light as a shield to prevent a majority of the damage hitting him after getting half way through it, Xaldin sent in a lance to stop the boy who got out and glided over the wind and with Oblivion, slashed through the lance and was on top of the nobody.
"Die!" Roxas shouted and threw his keyblades which began to spin around at a much greater velocity and hit the man every time. The Dragoon began to lose control and was hitting the castle itself as Roxas continued the pummel. He waved his hand to the side and the keyblades spun around him and at last he used the light and darkness in his body and formed am explosive aura around his body which sen the nobody crashing to the castle. Roxas then sailed in his direction and slashed Oathkeeper down the whole body to finsh the member off.
"It seems… I underestimated you boy…" The last words of Xaldin entered the mind of the boy as darkness took the third member of the Organization. The pain in Roxas' leg quickly caught to the boy who fell onto his knees from the pain. He put his hand into his coat pocket and uncorked one of three Mega Elixirs he has on him.
"I need to use it." Roxas said to himself and drank the liquid inside of the bottle, quickly the pain in his leg stopped the exhaustion that came fm using the light pillars disappeared as he jumped up to the top-level and saw that the two nobodies were standing tall and no other types were around. "Good jo-" Roxas began as a Sniper nobody appeared but time slowed as the Samurai nobody slowly drew its weapon and slashed through the Sniper and feel onto the ground and disappeared into the white void. Sheathing its weapon and still mute as ever. They disappeared to another location as Roxas did not waste any time and left Naught's Skyway and a hard-won battle.
Author's Notes – Including the Samurai Nobody was a last second idea which I think is a good choice on my part. Looking back on this chapter, putting Xaldin against Roxas this early was a bad idea to be honest but I think it would be manageable for him to defeat… unless you are playing KH2, then it's hell, which is what he went through. Having Roxas only have three Mega Elixirs will be a key point in the future so keep that in mind since he still has a lot of members to go through and only two times can he heal himself completely now...
