Ventus's P.O.V. because I can! XD Enjoy!
The Unversed had me pinned and I couldn't move a muscle. Somehow I'd seen this before, but I couldn't remember where. But more importantly, why is Vanitas controlling Sora? When Sora came up to me with Vanitas's signature grin on his face I knew this isn't Sora.
He grinned and his eyes burned intensely. I knew he wanted to see me die. I could see it in his eyes. But I'm not going to give him the satisfaction of it. Because the moment he slips and I get free I'm going to tear his soul out of Sora and destroy him once and for all!
He went to touch me so I spit on him and glared and his grin faded and cold eyes bore into my soul. I kept up the glare anyway. Terra always said I could kill a man with my cold stare. Let's see if it works on Vanitas. But I have had enough of him so I asked, "What'd you do to him?" and he answered me with a laugh and said, "I simply gave him the power you could only dream of, Ventus."
"You're a monster, Vanitas! You're ruining him!" I shouted. "Well then, oh well!" he laughed. This guy was making me so angry. Why couldn't he just leave Sora alone and come after me again? Why couldn't he have died when we thought he had? I tried to get loose from the Unversed and he laughed, "You can't escape those!"
"Hey, Vanitas!" calls Kairi. I look at her and she has her Keyblade drawn. "What?" he growls. "How about a rematch?" she demands. "You wouldn't dare hurt your poor little Sora!" he laughed, which seemed to make the Princess even madder. "I'll kill you!" she shrieks, running at him. He smiles and puts out his hand and Darkness shoots out at her. "Take that, Princess!" he laughs.
"Kairi!" shouts Riku as Kairi is throws back to where she was previously standing. "Kairi are you okay?" he asks, holding her in his arms now. I couldn't hear what Terra was saying to Riku but Riku approved it. I think they are making plans. Terra summons his Keyblade and Vanitas immedietly looks at him.
"What do you think you can accomplish? You're still fighting the Darkness in your heart, as is he. So why do you think you have any chance against me?" asks Vanitas. Terra didn't answer, just glared and gripped his Keyblade harder. "Oh? You want to fight me? Is that it?" sneers Vanitas.
"No." says Terra, "I want to kill you!" Vanitas laughs, "You don't have what it takes!" "I'll show you who doesn't have what it takes!" yells Terra, running at Vanitas. Is he really willing to harm Sora just to get to Vanitas? This is madness! I kept trying to get free but couldn't. Before I had time to realize, I saw Riku in the corner not to far from me. What is he planning?
Before I had time to react, Riku had summoned his Keyblade and the Unversed went after him and I was free. So that was his plan. He's killing all of them way too easily. I ran up to help Terra, who was already fighting Vanitas. I tried to attack him from behind but he saw me and jumped up, leaving me to attack Terra instead, but we stopped right before our attacks met and we glared up at Vanitas who just laughed.
"You'll have to do better than that, Veni Boy!" laughs Vanitas. I seethe and shouts, "Don't call me Veni Boy!" and I threw a bomb I didn't know I had at him and he jumped away from it just as it exploded. "We need a plan, Ven." said Terra and I nodded my agreement.
"But what do we do?" I asked, "He knows our fighting styles!" "I have an idea." says Terra. "Well what is it?" I asked. He leaned closer to me and I kept an eye on Vanitas as Terra whispered his idea in my ear. Once he had finished I looked at him and grinned, "That's perfect!" "Just wait for your cue to start, you can attack, but you know what to do." he said with a grin of his own and I nodded.
Once Vanitas landed Terra immedietly went for him with me right beside him and we got a bunch of combos on him before he rose back into the air and Terra boosted me up then launched me in the air and I fought with Vanitas until I fell back down, which I landed on my feet and Vanitas smirked. "You'll have to do better, Veni Boy!" he laughed.
I gritted my teeth and watched as he made his decent and the fact that he hadn't noticed Terra coming up behind him. I smirked and he looked at me in confusion and hatred. "Watch your back, Vanitas." I sneered. "what?" he asked in confusion. Just then Terra wrapped his arms around him and had him locked into the hold as I walked up tp him, my Keyblade held tightly in hand.
"What do you think you're going to do? Kill me? You'll kill your precious Sora too!" he yells. "No one ever said anything about killing you, Vanitas." I said plainly. He glared at me and I brought my Keyblade up to where his heart it. "I'm just doing to unlock his heart so I can drag you out." I said with a small smile.
He growled and I stabbed the end of my Keyblade into his heart and he let out a scream. I smiled, "Game over, Vanitas." "It's never game over, Ventus! Never! I will never be defeated! I can not die!" he laughed. I narrowed my eyes and stabbed the Keyblade in deeper and he screamed some more. "Not too deep, Ven." warns Terra. "I know. I'm not in too deep."I said plainly.
Soon Vanitas stopped screaming and stopped moving all together. Sora's body went completely limp. His hair started to fade back to it's natural brown color and I sighed and pulled my Keyblade out. Sora looked up at me and his eyes were ocean blue again. "You're back." I smiled. "Where did I go?" he asks. Terra releases him. "It doesn't matter where you went." says Kairi, now coming up to us, "What matters is that you're back."
"Kairi!" he calls happily, hugging the red headed Princess. "Are you all right?" I asked her. She nods and smiles, "Thank you for saving him, Ven. I owe you one." "You owe me nothing, Princess." I say with a soft smile of my own. Terra smiles and pats my back and Riku joins are little group.
"You saved him." says Riku. It wasn't a question. I nodded and smiled. He smiled back and we went on the the next floor to find Aqua. I didn't know Roxas and Namine were here until Kairi mentioned them. "We'll just have to go get them too once we get Aqua." I said. The others nodded their support ad we went on to another floor, having not seen anyone on the previous floor.
Once we passed to the next floor we were stopped by none other than Larxene. "Thought you could get rid of me huh?" she sneered. I sighed and summoned my Keyblade. "I don't have time for this!" I shouted angrily. "What a mouth you have. Rushing a woman? Didn't anyone ever teach you manners?" she said, her voice filled with hate, "I'll just have to teach you myself then!" Her knives appeared in between her fingers on both hands and she crossed them over her chest and grinned.
I gritted my teeth and prepared for an attack. "You guys go on ahead, find Aqua then get you all and Roxas and Namine out. I'll meet you somewhere." I said to my friends. "But, Ventus!" fought Terra. "Go!" I said angrily, "I won't say it twice!" They took my advice and they found their way around Larxene while I kept her busy.
Once they had gone she extends her arms and grins, "time to die now, little boy." "Hardly, old woman." I grinned, running at her. She scoffs and raises her arm, sending lightning flashing down on me but I'm quicker than she thought and I evaded all of it and reached her with a combo attack before she jumped back away from me angrily.
"You'll pay for that!" she growls. "Bring it on." I say, unamused and ran at her again planning more combo hits that will affect her. She jumps away several times but I still manage to damage her, which she has yet to have done on me. Then she comes at her with her knives and I jump back but she manages to slice my arm open with three of them in her left hand.
I yell in pain and jump away from her, but she comes right at me again so I'm forced to fight back. I raise my Keyblade to block, then sweep around her and hit her in the back with the back of my blade and she growls, falling to one knee, when I got for another attack and spins around and knocks me away from her.
"Time to die!" she said, raising her arm as lightning shoots down again, and this time it actually hits me head on and I collapse on the floor in terrible pain. She walks up to me with a smirk on her face. "It's too bad. If you would have been a good boy I wouldn't have had to kill you. Too late now." she laughs, raising her knives to stab them into my chest.
"I'm not done yet!" I growled, hitting her with my Keyblade to put distance between us so I could get up. Once I was standing I used cure on myself and went at her again. She growls and raises both arms and a lot of lightning comes down on me, but I'm quick on my feet again and only got hit by two or three then I was at her and hitting her with multiple combos at once. There's no way I'm letting her escape me now!
I got to her when she tried to get away from me and I hit her with more combo hits and she tried to hit me back but I was quicker and no longer as worn out as she was and I got more hits on her and she dropped to the floor, becoming engulfed by the Darkness. "No!" she shrieks, "Not again! I can't die again! NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Then she disappears and I sigh and use cure again then run to catch up with my friends on the floors above.
"Where did they go?" I asked myself as I made my way through the empty floors, looking for traces of my friends and When I did find someone it was Terra, laying on the floor, breathing heavily. "Terra!" I called, running up to my best friend, "Are you all right?" "V-Ventus..." he said, opening his eyes and smiling at me, "It's okay, it's okay now. I won. I beat Xemnas. Now the others will be free..."
"Terra?" I asked, taking him into my arms to try and elevate him, "Terra, what happened?" "We were...trying to find...Aqua...Xemnas had her...I got him to...release her...and she and the...others...went further ahead...to defeat...Xehanort...I stayed behind...and fought...Xemnas..." he tried to explain. "Terra!" I said in worry, I could tell his injuries were very bad, and he didn't seem all there somehow. "Terra!" I called to him. His eyes were closed.
"I did it, Ventus..." he said, a small smile crossing his lips and he opens his eyes barely to look at me. "What, Terra?" I asked, tears threatening to pour from my eyes, "What did you do?" "I...won..." he says, his voice barely a whisper. "Terra..." I said, no longer able to keep the tears back. He reaches up and places his hand on my head and rubs my hair, making it messier than it already is.
"Don't, kid. Don't cry...over me...I'll see you again." says Terra, "I'll...see you...again..." His hand slips from my head and lands beside his body and his smile remained and his eyes were still open, but they were empty. "Terra?" I gasped. I didn't get an answer from him. "Terra!" I tried, shaking him a little. Still no response. "Terra!" I tried again. Still no response from him. Tears were pouring down my face like a waterfall that just wouldn't stop. I held my friend close to me. "TERRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!" I screamed.
