Chapter 4: True abilities

……a giant Darkside heartless and swarms of shadow heartless around it.

Axel smirked as Demyx jumped from a tower and landed beside us.

"Superior said he wants us to take care of it!" Demyx said happily, as water burst from his hands, forming a giant blue Sitar.

Roxas lifted his keyblade. "Big one first! Let's go!"

Axel, Demyx, Xion, Roxas, and Hikaru rushed at the beast, their weapons ready. The heartless swiped at them, but they were too fast; with one swift motion, Axel and Hixaruk fired their weapons at the exact same time, knocking down the monster.

Demyx began to strum his guitar, and a sweet tune started to flow up, and everyone felt a jump of energy. Behind him, an army of water duplicates began to attack the shadow heartless.

Hikaru and Axel were still struggling keeping the giant heartless down while Roxas and Xion used combined attacks. But they were getting tired. Their grip started to weaken, and when it was weak enough….

BAM!!!!

The heartless twisted its body up, sending Axel and Hikaru flying backwards. Axel managed to catch Hikaru in mid air, and landed right on top of a heartless. He let her down gently, and she gave him a quick but cute smile, and he slightly blush. They brushed off themselves, and charged at the Darkside again. Xion and Roxas were turning to fight the swarms of pureblood heartless with Demyx, so Axel and Hikaru were on their own. Axel sliced at Darkside's arm, nearly taking the whole thing off. The monster angrily roared and slashed his other hand at Axel.

Behind him, a chakram lit with black fire shot and hit the heartless in the chest, sending it crashing backwards onto another swarm of shadows.

Hikaru jumped down beside Axel, her hair now a flaming red color, all spiked. The facial marks were unmistakable. She looked an awful lot like…..him. A female version.

"Whoa, that is weird..." thought Axel, looking up at her fiery eyes, gleaming with the same green color in his own.

Axel only had a moment to think, as he was helped up by a worn out Demyx. Hikaru combined her two black chakrams and made a fire based keyblade. Her eyes faded from the fiery green of Axel to the crystal blue in Roxas, though she still remained with red hair and facial marks under her eyes.

Everyone rushed at Darkside, each from different directions. Axel and Demyx sent balls of water and fire at it, making it cover its face. Roxas, Xion and Hikaru took this chance. They leaped into the air, and in one swift motion, sent three light beams from their keyblades, which pierced through the heartless' chest. Hikaru's beam lit on fire, adding to the damage. The heartless fell, and slowly, it faded into the dark sky. Everyone jumped back into the castle through the broken window.

Demyx sat of the bed. "Aaaahhh…what a battle! I don't like fighting, it takes so much energy."

Everyone was looking at Hikaru curiously. Since everyone was thinking about the exact same question, Axel spoke. "Why do you look so much like...me?"

Hikaru laughed. "I told you I could copy abilities, yea? Well, when I do, my appearance also changes to match that person."

Xion sighed with relief. "Thank goodness, I thought we might have been stuck with another Axel."

Roxas, Demyx, and Hikaru grinned. Axel nudged Xion. "Hey, you're not all perfecto yourself!"

Everyone laughed. It felt so nice to be with such a great group of friends.

After the laughter had died down, Demyx turned to Hikaru.

"How are ya gonna get outta that appearance now?"

Hikaru sighed. "Well, I can copy someone's appearance whenever I want…but to change back….it takes all my energy."

Hikaru closed her eyes, and put a finger to Axel's chest. They started glowing fiery red, and Axel closed his eyes. The glow left Hikaru and went in Axel, and he felt a warm, tickling sensation go up his back.

He opened his eyes, feeling rather happier for some reason. He looked over at Hikaru, also with her eyes open, but only slightly. She staggered, and then fell backwards. Axel caught her in his arms, and her eyes were once again, closed. She looked very innocent, and he was surprised to notice, that in the process of transforming back, a tear had somehow slipped from under her eye. He wiped it away, and placed her gently onto her bed.

"Aw, Hixaruk looks so cute!" exclaimed Demyx.

Axel slowly put the covers over her, and turned to the rest of the people.

"Alright, bed time. Break it up."

Roxas, Xion, Axel, and Demyx quietly got into their beds. Axel, being right next to the window, stared into the night sky, and then at Hikaru, who was in the bed next to his. He smiled and thought,

"Long days, new member, awesome battles…I'm liking it more and more..."
