Author's Notes: Ohhey. So I've been gone a super long time... I just, I really couldn't think of anything to write about. And this account- hate to disappoint- was mainly made for all the ideas in my head. This is why I don't do chapter stories. I just... can't. But hopefully I'll be making some more entries now. Hopefully.

Disclaimer: I don't own Kingdom Hearts or any of its characters. (WHYYY?)

There was a moment. A heart-stopped, world freezing, terrifying moment when he thought, 'I just might lose her.'

He denied it later, of course.

But standing there, in that circled area with Cloud, battling off the Heartless, it had happened. Cloud had just slashed the last of them, and the two of them were chuckling and trying so hard to forget that this might be the last time they saw each other, when he dared a glance down.

And he saw her fall.

There were still hoards of them. Heartless, Nobodies, what was the difference? (There was a major difference, of course, but at this point, all he knew was they needed to be destroyed.) There was Yuffie with Aerith, cutting through Heartless like grass. She was grinning her insanity-smile, and Aerith was blasting fire, and he saw a mound of the black creatures go flying from what he could only assume to be Tifa, and then she was hit. It was straight at her abdomen, and she tumbled back, falling on her but, hands on her side. He saw her struggling to breath.

He couldn't feel anymore. He heard Cloud shouting beside him, but he couldn't make out words, he heard marching behind them, but he didn't care what it was. All he cared about was that Yuffie was on the ground, winded, unable to defend herself, with a Heartless marching towards her. He felt his lips move, whisper a single word, when a green light surrounded Yuffie, bells appeared above her head, and she shook off, standing abruptly.

He breathed again, and he turned, finally able to make out Cloud's words.

"What?" he questioned.

"I asked if you were okay. Because we've got a problem." the blonde replied, jabbing a thumb at the army approaching from behind.

"I'm fine." Leon replied curtly, turning to the mass.

Cloud was quiet for a long moment, before he lifted his sword. "It's scary... isn't it?" he questioned in a mumble.

Leon didn't respond at first, but when he did, he merely lifted his sword, and said, "I'll kill more this time.", before they charged into battle.

Author's Notes: A little bit of a longer one, neh? I just recently remembered that email existed, and someone sent me a review, and it made me happy and want to write again... so more people should send me reviews. 'Cause that would just be... fantastic. Hope you enjoyed!
