Spoilers for KH2 in here concerning Roxas and Organization 13.

Before we get started, I'd like to make a few notes. Yugi and Yami will be getting action, as noted in the last chapter. There will be some summons done by Sora and perhaps some Drive Forms (which answers the question as to which outfit Sora is wearing, which would be his KH2 outfit). For Yugi and Yami, there will be penalty games, mind crushing, and all the good stuff. They will be fighting heartless and nobodies, but as to how, you'll have to see for yourself. If there's anything you guys wanna see, tell me! n.n Aside from that, the main villain will not be showing himself for a while

Also, my action scenes need work. At least that's what I think.

Duel Disks and Keyblades

By FlikFreak

Chapter Seven: Larxene

Sora had done his best to avoid not only letting out his secret, but also giving his location away to the heartless by summoning the Keyblade. Unfortunately, with Larxene backing him into a corner, he had no choice but to fight. For now, he had to worry about keeping everyone safe. He could answer questions later.

Larxene wasted no time in laying the first attack. Eight kunai raced his way, but with a deft and quick cry, a shield of light formed around him, absorbing the knives and hurling a wave of energy back at the offending warrior. Taking advantage of the moment that the woman was stunned, Sora raced forward, keyblade brandished. Larxene, however, chuckled, and vanished from sight.

What the…

Pain exploded from Sora's back, and the sound of crashing lightning could be heard as he skidded against the ground. In a desperate effort to regain himself, Sora scrambled to his feet while muttering a cure spell. While his effort succeeded, he found Larxene in front of him again once he had regained his composure.

"You don't fight like you used to, Sora!" She taunted. "I guess you've gotten a bit rusty since I last saw you!"

"I may not remember you like I should," Sora grumbled, "But I'm not about to lose!" With that, he leapt into the air, readying a strike when he felt a swift kick to his side, sending him crashing into the side of a nearby building. Thinking that another Organization groupie had snuck up on him, he looked up only to see a copy of Larxene readying another attack. She's replicating herself?!

Within the split second it took him to fall, Sora looked closely at what took place before him. Both of his opponents were able to attack and cause pain, meaning they had to be solid. Before in his adventures, he was able to get rid of copies with a single swing, but maybe…

Sora landed on the ground, preparing a strike when Larxene once again rushed at him. This time, however, he was prepared, and with a plan. As one of the clones charged him, he ran forward, just missing it, and grabbed her arm. "Let go of me!" Larxene protested loudly.

"Be careful what you ask for!" Sora replied, throwing her through the air into the other Larxene that opposed him. (1) The clone he threw vanished, leaving the real thing staggering on the ground momentarily. Sora took the opportunity to shoot a glance back at his friends. "Yugi! You and Jounouchi get out of here!"

"What about you?" Jounouchi protested.

"I'll be fine," Sora shot back. "Just get out of here before you get hurt!" With that, he refocused his attention on Larxene.

Yugi and Jounouchi ran quickly, but as they rounded the corner, they both stopped, turning their gaze back on the scene. "I knew he was keeping something from us," Jounouchi said, "But why? And why that?"

"We'll probably know once he's done here," Yugi answered, "But I'm not about to leave him there." He turned back to Jounouchi. "You head back to the shop and make sure no one in town gets hurt, alright? I'm ganna keep an eye on Sora."

"Are you nuts?" Jounouchi protested. "What if those things show up again?"

Yugi threw a glance back to the woman and Sora fighting. "That person used Swords of Revealing Light on us. Whenever those things are nearby, I'm guessing that the monsters and spells in this game become real to an extent. Even if they're not, maybe just the sight of a monster will scare them off."

Jounouchi nodded, pulling his Duel Disk from his backpack and slipping in his deck. "I hope you know what you're doing, Yugi." With that, he ran off.

Quickly wishing his friend luck, Yugi turned around, peeking from around the corner of the building at the fight. Do you think Sora will be okay? He asked Yami.

Apparently he's met this woman before, the spirit replied. He has a strong heart. I'm sure he'll be fine. If he gets in a fix, however, I will not hesitate to step in, do you understand?

Yugi nodded, hoping it would not come to that.

Sora was reaching the limits of his stamina. He knew he couldn't keep up this fight for long; he had no means of utilizing Drive here, and he didn't even know if summoning would work either. He was alone in this fight, and Larxene wasn't making it easy on him.

"I'm through with you," the woman snarled, thoroughly disgusted with him. "You're such an eyesore…"

"Too bad I'm not done yet," Sora replied, and leapt into the air. The air around the keyblade plummeted in temperature, and a shot of ice flew down from it and slammed into Larxene's gut. Another volley of shots flew down and pounded at her before Sora sent an enormous wave of icy wind her way. Shaken from the sudden chill, Larxene backed away, but did not take long to recover when she sent a wave of lightning to counter Sora's own attack. A cry of agony was heard from the boy as he was hurled through the air, skidding against the ground.

"You were saying?" Larxene taunted.

Sora grunted, pushing himself up off of the ground. "What do you want, anyway?"

The woman above him snorted in disgust. "Why should I tell you? You're nothing but a pest who's in our way."

"Then what about your precious Roxas?"

"That idiot is a traitor whom deserves to fade," Larxene retorted, bending down and forcing Sora's chin up so she could look him in the eye. "I might have been part of the organization once, but Roxas was the first to leave. We never saw him since the day he left, and I got stuck with the stupid memory research team and had to deal with you and your pathetic friends instead of teaching that brat what he should have learned when he left."

"Then why is everyone still calling me by his name?"

Larxene sighed, pressing the flat of a kunai against Sora's chin to discourage any cheap moves. "Well, since I'm about to kill you, I don't see any problem in telling you. Our new leader needs Roxas to finish up with his spiffy new plan. Once he's done, not only will this world belong to the revived Organization, but we'll also have the wonderful little assets that it's got for us. Of course, you and the stupid Pharaoh are in our way, so we've just got to get rid of you, won't we?"

"Pharaoh?" Sora asked. "Who are you talking about?"

"Oh, I'm sure you've already met him by now," Larxene cooed. "Or maybe you haven't. He can only hide from everyone for so long, because once we find him and get rid of him..." She grinned, allowing Sora to imagine what would happen.

It was then that Sora's eyes widened in realization. Of course! Maybe this pharaoh was who he was supposed to be looking for! But why the city? He was miles from Egypt, let alone a desert of any kind. "You..." He protested.

"But enough small talk," Larxene continued. "We won't have to worry about you anymore, because I'll finish you right here and now!"

As the woman reared back one of her knife-laced fingers, Sora rolled to the side with great agility, and with a cry, he hurled the keyblade towards Larxene, whom had no time to defend herself as it slammed into her side. An anguished scream was heard from the woman as a dark and empty mist surrounded her, her form beginning to fade.

Sora stood upright. "Your time is up, Larxene."

Larxene just sneered at the boy. "You despicable little brat," she said with her last breath. "You can't…" The last bit of her statement was lost forever as she vanished.

With a sneer, Sora walked over to the keyblade and picked it up, moments later allowing it to vanish. As he turned and examined the area, he noticed a familiar face watching him, and he walked towards it.

"Are you okay, Sora?" Yugi asked.

Sora nodded. "I'll explain everything later. Let's get out of here before anyone else finds us."

Well...that was weird to write. Sora's got some explaining to do, and it looks like Yugi will as well.
