WW0604: Okay, this time I'm gonna try to make my chapters long. I'm already punishing myself for make my chapters short. I learned my lesson. Anyway, I do not own Kingdom Hearts, but I do have a couple of their games. Unfortunately that doesn't count.
Chapter 2: Key Blades
"Why are they always late!? Didn't he say to be here by noon?" Roxas wined.
"Actually, now that you mention it, he never told us where and when to meet him. This isn't good." Hayner pulled out his cell phone and dilled Clouds number.
"Yeah, what?" was heard on the other line.
"Where are you Cloud? Rox and I have been waiting for hours and no one has arrived yet."
"I'm home of course. We weren't leaving until 3.
"Really? We didn't know that, but where are we meeting?"
"At the only shipping deck there is. Man Hayner, I would expect any one to know that there's only one place where we can set sale. I'm surprised."
"Shut up Cloud, I don't know everything!"
"It appears so. Well see you later."
"Wait, does Sora and Riku know?"
"Yeah, they were smart enough to call me. Is that all?"
"Yeah, see you later, and don't be late. Bye"
"Don't sweat, I'll be early, so I can set the boat. See ya."
Hayner sighed and hung up the phone. He walked back over to Roxas who was impatiently tapping on the railing. "Rox, he said that he was coming at 3. Apparently he expected us to call if we didn't know." Hayner simply said as he began to pick up their stuff.
"Okay, then what should we do for a few hours?" Roxas asked with an evil grin afterwards.
"Nothing that'll wear us out. Maybe we should go get something to eat then walk around town or something."
"Well that ruins my plan. Where should we go then?"
"I guess we'll find something while we walk." Hayner grabbed Roxas's hand and walked to their house to drop off their stuff.
----------
Back on the other side of town, Sora and Riku was trying to think of something to make time fly, but they couldn't think of anything.
"Riku, I can't think of anything. I don't think attaching wing to a clock would work since the wing won't flap." Riku hit Sora on the back of the head.
"Sora, when I said 'make time fly', I meant something that'll help make the time pass more quickly." Riku said with a little laugh in his voice. He got up and went to get his key blade. "We can battle. You never fond a way to beat me yet, so maybe today is your lucky day."
"You say that every time and I end up loosing." Even though Sora complained, he got his key blade and grabbed Riku's arm. "But when did I ever say no to a challenge? Today I will win!" Riku and Sora walked to the time square. The time square was a big area with not so many people at first, but once the word that Riku and Sora were fighting, then the perimeter is packed with people. "Why is there always a ton of people when we come here to fight?"
"I guess they enjoy seeing my beat you."
"Well your fans will be disappointed when they see me beat you."
The battle began with Sora charging Riku like he always did and ends up missing. Sora stumbled forward which left him open for an attack. Riku ran up to Sora and prepared to hit him, but Sora suddenly spun around nearly hitting Riku. "So you've gotten better?" Sora only smiled in return and charged again. Riku stood with his blade out ready for Sora's attack, but not Roxas. Roxas came running in with his key blade and hit Riku on the back with it.
"I win, I win! Did you see Hayner? I beat Riku!" Roxas jumped up and down in joy as Sora and Riku just stood there and watch their crazy friend make a fool of himself.
"Hey guys, sorry he interrupted. He couldn't resist and I couldn't hold him back for that long. He just had to bring his key blade."
"It's fine Hayner. Where are you two going? We're leaving in like an hour." Riku asked. Roxas was still celebrating his win by running in circles cheering that he beat Riku.
"We were just walking and Roxas had the crazy idea to go and buy myself a key blade, so he has someone to battle." Roxas ran up to Hayner and jumped onto his back. "But I'm not the fighting type."
"Hayner, Hayner. We still need to get your key blade. Lets go!" Hayner sighed and walked to the store that sold key blades with Roxas still on his back. "I guess I don't have a choice, but can't he walk?" Inside the store Roxas and Hayner took a look at the different kinds of key blades. Hayner didn't expect to see so many in one little store. "Hayner, what kinds do you like? I was thinking the Circle of Life since you love green and everything that includes nature. Hayner nodded and walked over to the counter with Roxas to order his key blade. "Do you think Cloud might enjoy having one?" Sora asked.
"He has a buster sword, so I wouldn't think he'll want one. Roxas, what are you doing now?" Roxas ran from the counter and picked up a Sleeping Lion blade.
"I thought he might like this one, even if he only uses it against us. I'm bringing my key blade on the trip and I'm sure Sora and Riku will too to keep up with their skills, so I thought if the five of us had one of our own then we can do free for all together." Hayner rolled his eyes and grabbed his key blade.
Roxas looked at Hayner strangely when he picked it up. "You can pay for that, I'll pay for mine." Roxas smiled and paid for Clouds blade and ran to Sora and Riku who were waiting for them by the exit. Hayner soon joined them after he paid for his. "We should head to the docks now. It's 2:45." Sora and Riku nodded and ran to their house to get their bags.
"Don't forget to bring you blades." Roxas yelled after them and Sora waved in return. "Did he hear me?"
"I'm sure the people in Hallow Bastion heard you, and we're in Twilight Town." Hayner rubbed his ears which were still ringing from his boyfriend's loud mouth. They walked to their house in silence. When they arrived at the docks, Cloud already had his boat in the water; he was just getting all of the supplies needed for the trip.
"Cloud, hey Cloud. We have something for you!" Roxas went running ahead while Hayner carried all of their bags along with his key blade. Cloud jumped down from his boat and walked up to Roxas.
"What is it Roxas, and why is Hayner carrying all of your bags?" Cloud asked, pointing to Hayner who was still making his way to the others.
"He's carrying them because I want to give you this." Roxas pulled the key blade from behind his back and shoved it in Clouds hands. "Everyone has one now. We thought that you'll like this key blade. Well, do you?"
"It's nice Roxas, but you know that I have my buster sword right?"
"That's what Hayner said, but everyone's bringing one and we'll eventually be doing a free for all battle and thought that you would like to join." Roxas didn't have much of the smile that he had when he gave it to Cloud. "But if you don't like it then I'm sorry."
"No Roxas, I do like it. I was just unsure why you got it, but I really do like it. Thanks Roxas." Roxas's goofy smile appeared again and he ran to get his blade and bags from Hayner. "I have heard that each blade has a name, so what's mine?"
"Your blade is called Sleeping Lion. Hayner's blade is the Circle of Life. Sora's is simply called Key Blade. Riku has that dark one, though I could never remember the name of it. Mine is Oathkeeper." Sora and Riku came walking up with their bags and blades. "So you did hear me!"
"I wouldn't be surprised if people heard you in Hallow Bastion." Riku Plainly said.
"Why does everyone keep saying that?" Roxas asked while stomping his feet.
WW0604: Not a very good way to end it, but I suppose it'll do. Everyone has a key blade now!! I had trouble picking the right blades for everyone; besides Sora and Riku I let them keep their blades from the game. What was Riku's blade called, I never remembered it. I'll just keep calling it the dark one since it's the only dark one until I figure out the name. Plz review and read chapter 3. -
