Chapter 3: Dawn of Destiny
Oh... it's too early for this...
I rolled over in the heavy sheets I always slept in, getting out of the sunlight.
Wait... sunlight?
I got up hastily, getting dressed as fast as I could. I opened my window and stared out into the sunny sky, shieldng my eyes with my hand.
"Wow... it's beautiful!" I muttered, jumping out of my window. I ran across the unusually windy fields to the crater where my grotto was, but looking back, it was a very wise idea indeed. The entire area had begun to simply disintegrate... leaving nothing save for a blank void in its wake. I looked around uneasily... jumping down into the crater, where I saw Natsu.
"The doors have opened..." she said, as if mesmerized by the sky.
"What the hell are you talking about?!" I shouted.
"The doors have opened, Fuyu! Now we can find what's beyond the mountains!" she shouted.
"Why does that matter?!" I shouted over now-howling winds.
"We can find what we've been searching for all along," she said. She held her hand out to me... just like in my dream...
I ran out grab her hand, but the wind was too strong... I was blown back as Natsu disappeared in a flash of light... and I felt myself begin to be covered in the light, as well...
Something happened.
A burst of darkness surrounded me, and an odd weapon appeared in my hand. The handle was silver, with a gold blade and chain, and at the end of the blade was some sort of key-like indentation...
Keyblade...
Keyblade...
Keyblade...
Keyblade...
Keyblade...
This weapon... is it... a key blade...?
A Key... blade?
A Keyblade?
I ran towards my grotto, only to be forced back by gale-force winds after I caught a very brief glimpse of Aki as I moved the rock aside. After I staggered to my feet... there was nothing... nothing... left of the plains, save the crater I was in. Then the monster from my dream appeared... shining its way into existence.
"You again?!" I shouted, readying the Keyblade I had summoned somehow. I dashed at the creature, using the same manuvers I had before... but it was apparently more resilent in the real world. The monster summoned a sphere of light in its hands, then threw it at me. I easily dodged it, but more of the shining beings popped up to attack me. I dashed aside, being hit by the big one a couple times, but took the little ones down before returning my attention to the big guy.
"Bring it!" I shouted. I dodged an earth-shattering punch, then knocked aside a second ball of light. I attacked it, tearing into its arms and jumping up to its head, where I bashed it as the beast thrashed about helplessly. Eventually I fell from its shoulder, then stood for a moment, breathing heavily from the exertion.
I dodged another punch, then struck the beast in the hand. It howled, lumbered, and fell over. I moved in for the deathblow when the wind became too much... and I couldn't help but be drawn near the void.
I held onto the dissipating edge of my world with all of my might... but it was no use...
I fell... into the blank void of space...
Where... what's gonna happen to me...?
