Chapter 10: Battle of the Mind. Andre's new ace in the hole weapon?
When Andre went to bed he wasn't expecting to be fighting for his life in his mind.
A few minutes ago
'Asura huh?' Andre smirked 'well at least not Beelzebub' Andre then went on to bed after 'So how do we settle this?' 'just get some sleep I have to organize things first' as soon as he fell a sleep he plunged into darkness he was calmly falling down his feet then landed on something he took a step forward a flash of light came on and he was standing on what looked like a plate glass window the man in the middle of the picture on the platform was about in his mid-twenties he had snow white hair hazelnut brown eyes wearing basically the same style of clothes as Andre except instead of a red and black jacket it was a black and red trench coat in his right gloved hand was a double-bladed weapon that looked like a giant two-sided key one side white and blue the other side red and black even the look of each side contradicted each other (Forevermore and Divinity as one keyblade) while with his left gloved hand he was keeping a woman with brunette hair Ruby red eyes in beautiful black and silver clothes holding a small baby with short white hair and also ruby red eyes away from something. Andre was on his knees wishing he could take a picture of this because he realized this was him and his Parents a long time ago he then heard its voice
"You know you're a lot like him not just looks but how you act to." he turned to see Asura looking like Andre's polar opposite, Asura had ebony black hair his usual golden yellow eyes the entirety of his clothes were white and blue instead of Andre's Black and red. Andre got up to his feet ready to fight, but Asura put up his hand "We're not fighting yet Jr. we still need to get some things in order like I'm not usually that sadistic." Andre raised an eyebrow guessing he saw the video well technically he lived it. "Why don't I believe you? oh right your a demon." Asura looked at him "I'm technically a demonic heartless, and since I'm the only one there's no lying stereotype for you to call on brother." Andre's eyes widened "What did you just call me?" Asura blinked silent for few seconds "Right Auron told you Dante's given alias 'of the Inferno' I believe it was but he didn't tell you the entire reason he got that title. Well it's like this at the age of sixteen daddy created me in a freak accident and in my early stages of life I acted like i did on Kilika and before any serious damage to the world itself was done but I already killed a great number of people and when he sealed me in him we mediated and I calmed down during those nine years but a man named Xehanort demonized Dante and his family and nearly had the whole world tear you guys apart if it weren't for your girlfriend's mother they would've. Knowing you wouldn't be safe with them when they took you to the world's designated guardian and Dante's oldest friend Ansem the wise while You girlfriend's mother left her with the Al Bhed in Spira they were all going to redeem him in the eyes of the people by going back, but before they left they gave you me as a guardian 'angel' With the help of Ansem the wise it was a success but as they when went back to the keyblader academy it detached itself from Radiant Garden and Ansem and I assumed the worse and put you in a orphanage hoping nobody would recognize you but they did and here we are the only thing I didn't expect was you blocking me out for fourteen years lets just say like any normal person you go a bit crazy for that long a time in isolation. So to answer your original question of why I called you brother is because Dante made me in a weird way we're brothers Andre." (A/N talk about an exposition dump) At this point Andre was still processing everything all he wanted to ask now "Well then...Brother," Andre saying it with somewhat difficulty " Tell me this what do we do now?" Asura snapped his fingers and then showed three pedestals one each with a floating keychain "First of all you have to inherit one of your parents keyblades and before you ask no this doesn't confirm they're alive or dead this would've happened either way, then we'll fight for dominance bro, if you win you get my power with me taking over but at a fraction of it only now choose your keyblade little brother." Andre walked up to the one on the left the keychain was of a white crown with blue tips he then heard a voice "Divinity your mother's keyblade with the power to cleanse any heart of darkness and bring those turned heartless back to normal." Andre thought thats a nice power but he has no idea what a heartless was and no one he knew was consumed by darkness so he moved to the one on the right this keychain was a black and red raven the voice came again "Forevermore your father's keyblade will make you move faster and your strikes more powerful but wield this along with Divinity both double." He turned to Asura "I can dual wield keyblades?" Asura then shook his head "Not yet wait two years then you'll be ready and your going to have to give up one of these after you choose one and then you'll receive the one you didn't give up in two years." Andre then walked to the middle pedestal where the key chain was dull steel gray chocobo " The metal chocobo hits harder but restrains your ability to adapt in combat." Sounded like a berserker keyblade to him that definitely didn't appeal to him so he went to the 'Forevermore' pedestal and took the keychain there was then a flash of light and Forevermore was now in his right hand, to him it looked beautiful and deadly at the same time, and as a added bonus it felt lighter than his own swords. His train of thought broke as he noticed he unconsciously picked up the chocobo keychain and threw it over the edge of the tower and Asura got his opposite version of Forevermore that was blue and white he then snapped his fingers and then the local changed a desolate place full of keyblades stuck in the ground looking like they've been there for years untouched "Asura where are we?" Andre asked looking at all the keyblades Asura then said "Technically still in your mind just thought this would be better for the battle after all this is my birth place" he then charged Andre with the same speed as in the recording and when he blocked the attack the ground around them cracked and made a crater where they stood Asura smirked and said "Dark Wave" and then a black energy came out of Asura's blade and blasted itself at Andre making him go back several feet skidding on the ground but Andre improvised punching Asura in the gut twice jumped spun kicked him in the back of the head and then proceeded to stab him in the chest 'killing' Asura but he was chuckling and flicked forevermore then there was a soft ping "This calls for an explanation you see Forevermore is my physical manifestation you see you had to beat me to unlock its power. You also need to no you can still lose control if you overexert youself or if your emotions run wild. Now you need to wake up you've been here for two days you've been worrying everybody little brother I'll keep in touch." He then snapped for fingers for fingers to wake up.
