HEY PEOPLE! I'm back with another chapter for this new story. OCs? Same ones, still accepting them. Flash? Gone, out of the picture. I don't need to wait another chapter for the final answer. Btw, some OCs will show up in later chapters, I got some ideas for them. Anyways, let's get this started!

Chapter 3 : The Mysterious Enemy

We return to the battle with the mysterious man, Sora and Krain with their swords and ready to fight.

"You must be Sora and Krain."

Everyone were surprised not that he talks, but the way he talks. It has a distorted echo to it, which unnerved them a bit.

"My lord knows greatly of you two heroes."

"Oh great, a pawn to a certain source. What are you doing here, anyways?" Sora questioned.

"Simple, with one objective in mind... destroying the thing you call "friendship." The man answered.

"Interesting. However, that brings up another question, why are you attacking Twilight and her new friend?"

"That's the point. Twilight Sparkle and her five friends are the key. Destroying them will also turn friendship into dust."

Sora's hand holding the handle tightened.

"Now, I would like to introduce you to my blade." (In case you are wondering, his blade is the Ebony Blade from Skyrim)

The man dashes at them with the duo dashing at him at the same time. When they got close, Sora jumps over him, landing behind him. The two swing at him and hit... each other's blades.

"Where did he go?" Krain thought.

"Behind you."

Sora turns around, only to see the man's blade coming at him. Thanks to his reaction time, he grabs the blade with his left hand.

"Nice try."

The man kicks him into Krain, pushing them back. They stopped each other and dashed off in opposite directions at the man. They slash at him, only for him to simply jump over them, only to suddenly get hit by a blue orb, knocking him out of the air. However, he recovered and landed on his feet.

"Guess I'll help out."

The man looks at Gold, who was standing with his hands flaring with Eon with the symbol on his back glowing as well.

"All right, let's see you handle this."

A dark aura suddenly flared around his blade, he then swings, sending a pitch black aerial blade at them. The three counter with their own moves.

"Bolt Drive!"

"Shirai Inazuma!"

"Eon Blast!"

The two energy blades and the beam collide with the dark aerial blade, exploding on impact. When the smoke disappeared, the man disappeared as well.

"Oh great, he disappeared."

Hearing Gold's heavy breathing, Sora pulls out a potion and tosses it up above Gold, landing and healing him.

"There you go."

Gold then takes a couple of deep breaths and stops.

"Thanks."

Meanwhile, at a nearby church

Sitting in one of the rows, a 15 year old male sat. He's 5'11", has caucasion skin, average build, green eyes, and black shaggy hair. He is wearing a black t-shirt, dark blue jeans and black Vans. He was sitting there, praying to God as usual when suddenly...

"Boo."

"SHIT!"

He swings his fist at the origin, only to hit nothing since the origin jumped back.

"You shouldn't do that, I could have hit you."

"Sure you would have."

"Who are you, anyways?"

"Well..."

The origin walks out of the shadows, revealing to be the mysterious man. (Duh!)

"Let's see if you provide a challenge first."

He then summons his sword.

"All right, (gets up) let's go."

He then summons his weapon that resembles a claymore, in the shape of the holy cross.

"Btw, I didn't catch your name."

The holy cross wielder smirked.

"Brian. Brian Starbucks."

The man dashed at him, blade at the ready and slashes at him. Luckily, Brian was able to block it but, the man pushed him back with great force, going through the wall. Now outside, Brain jumped over him and swung down. However, the man expected it and quickly rolled out of the way. Brian use the momentum to frontflip and land on his feet.

"This might be more interesting than I thought." The man thought.

Back with the others, 2 mins earlier

"You all right, Twilight?" Gold asked.

"Yes. Thanks for protecting me." Twilight said.

"No problem."

"Who is your new friend?" She asked to Sora.

"This is Stargazer." He answered.

"Hi." Stargazer said.

"I'm Austin but, call me Gold." He said, introducing himself.

"Sora. White hair dude is Krain."

"Hey." Krain said.

Stargazer's ears started to twitch again.

"Nearby?" Sora asked.

"Yeah." She said.

Then, the sound of a wall crashing down was heard.

"And near a building." Sora added.

"Let's go." Gold said.

Back to the fight

They collided blow for blow, showing that they are evenly matched.

"All right, how about this?"

The man's blade then became cloaked in the dark aura. He then slams his blade against Brian's with immense force, pushing Brian back greatly. Brian stabbed his blade into the ground to slow himself down to a halt. He then sees a black aerial blade coming at him. He then swings, slicing the aerial blade in half.

"Impressive." The man said.

A lightning bolt then struck down in front of him, making him stop.

"Surprise, Anonymous." (Decided to call him Anonymous, got tired of saying "the man")

He and Brian turn to see Sora and the others.

"You're quick." Anonymous said.

"Always was." Sora commented, channeling electricity through his right arm. The electricity is dark blue with a black outline. He then rushes at him.

"Like to stay but, I'll be going. I'll be back." Anonymous then disappeared into thin air right before Sora hits him.

"Dang it." Sora simply said.

"OK..." Brian thought.

"You okay, man?" Sora asked the holy cross wielder.

"Fine. Thanks for the help. Name's Brian."

"Sora."

"Twilight Sparkle."

"Krain."

"Austin but, call me Gold."

"Stargazer."

Brian looks among them.

"Nice to meet you all."

"What kind of weapon is that?" Sora asked with a curious look on his face.

Brian then held the blade up a bit.

"Weird as it sounds, it's called the holy sword of godliness."

The others raised an eyebrow to that.

"Like I said, weird."

"I see why it's called holy, the blade is in the shape of the holy cross." Sora commented.

"Correct."

"But it looks more like a claymore." Gold said.

"That's because it is."

"Then... why is it called the holy sword instead of claymore?" Twilight asked.

"Don't know, I didn't make it."

"OK. What can it do?" Krain asked.

"Kills demons and anything unholy instantly and is the sharpest thing in existence." Brian simply explained.

"Well, damn." Krain said.

"Now, tell me. Who was that?" Brian asked.

"I don't know. Why did you think I call him Anonymous?" Sora questioned.

"... Good point."

"Anyways, we should find the others. Tell them what's going on." Twilight suggested.

"Good idea. Let's move."

They then head out, not knowing what dangers or people will be up ahead.

Done, people! Sora and the gang meet Brian and discover Anonymous' and his lord's intentions. Will they protect the power of friendship or will it be just dust in the wind? We'll see. Anyways, Flash is gone, and other OCs will appear later in the story. Is that it, Sora?

Sora: Yeah, pretty much. Btw, shout out to Cheezel1993 to his new story, Into a New World. Check it out! It has a very good start too. (Looks at me) That's it.

OK. So, until next time, adios!
