Destiny Challenge: 9. Losing It All
Rules: 200 words, one character
The stakes were high and the cards were stacked against him, yet something in him urged him to press on. He had no choice in the matter, officially. It was only himself and Saïx who remained to guard the Superior. He had nothing left to fight for but his vow to serve the organization.
It had been a long time since he felt a high success rate. It began to fall with the heavy losses at Castle Oblivion, when their numbers were cut by half. Technically it did not matter, so long as they held the Keyblade's power to capture hearts, but it did weaken future attempts to keep dissenters at bay.
Such as now, when Sora went through their ranks one after another. Even the high and mighty Xigbar had been felled by this boy's blade. Luxord knew deep within the space that should have housed a heart that this would be his final mission.
Without hope, he spurred himself on to play his best game; a glorious final round he hoped they all would remember. After all, only memories would remain upon his defeat. He knew his time was up.
Even the Ace is felled by a Joker.
