Chapter 10: I Can't loose

This was it, one of the most intense moments in my life. I looked at the three people in front of me ready to take us down and run for it. I wasn't sure who the Volturi were, but judging from the way Alice, Roxas, and Namine were looking it couldn't be good.

"Who are these creeps?" Terra asked summoning his keyblade. He knew if they were hanging around with Vanitas they were bad news.

"Trouble of course." I sighed summoning my keyblade.

Alice turned to us, "They're not planning to kill us, just going to take us out so they can run to the Volturi."

Namine pulled out her sketchpad and it started to glow, "How are our odds looking?"

Alice shook her head, "I'm not sure, nobody's made a decision of what to do yet."

"So, all we have to do is take them out." Roxas stated summing his keyblade.

"Be careful everyone. Vanitas is pure evil and we can never be sure about what he's thinking." I told them. I also knew Vanitas wouldn't care if he killed us.

Vanitas laughed, "Are you guys taking a nap over there?"

Terra just glared at him but didn't attack. He was still in control of himself and I was glad. "You only wish we were."

All three of them slowly started making their way towards us. "Maybe you should before you get hurt." Haruka said, no evil teasing or mockery in her voice. Just straight out anger. She seemed almost harmless until she summoned two keyblades out of the darkness, that caught me off guard.

"Sheesh Haruka, could you just lighten up a bit? They didn't even do anything yet." Tomo said, sounding slightly annoyed as he called a keyblade of his own out of the darkness.

"Maybe you should give her some drugs, she's got some issues." Roxas suggested, smiling at them.

Something snapped inside Haruka then. She came charging at us without thinking anything through. I quickly raised my hand up and shot her with a fire blast that sent her flying backwards and hitting the ground hard.

Tomo kneeled down beside her looking disappointed. "You have to calm down. You don't think about what you're doing when you get upset like that."

Haruka pushed herself up and looked at Tomo, "Sorry it's just that they all piss me off, especially that blue haired one up in front." she said pointing at me.

Vanitas smiled as he summoned his keyblade and continued walking in our direction. "Then use that in the fight, just think your actions through."

Terra glared at him as he started to glow black. "What is he doing?"

"I don't know what he's planning yet but we have to take them out fast." Alice announced as she lightly took a step forward.

"You don't have to tell me twice." Roxas said as he charged forward. Just as he was about to strike Vanitas, Tomo jumped in the way and blocked him.

"Hello there brother." Tomo smirked evilly as he launched Roxas backwards. Roxas quickly back flipped and landed on his feet.

"I'm not your brother!" Roxas shouted getting ready to attack.

Tomo smiled and took a couple steps forward, "We both came from Sora, so I'd consider us brothers, wouldn't you?"

Roxas quickly charged at him and they were engaged in their battle. I was slightly distracted by them going at it that I didn't notice a dark ball heading my way. Luckily Terra jumped in the way and blocked it. "I'll take care of him." he whispered to me. He quickly charged at Vanitas, who blocked the attack and started laughing as he pushed Terra off and started attacking.

Haruka started running in my direction and swung her keyblade at me. I quickly blocked the attack and launched her up in the air a bit, then I quickly spun around and kicked her in the ribcage that sent her flying back. She hit the ground roughly and she staggered as she tried to get up. She wrapped her arm around her ribs and smiled evilly at me.

Out of nowhere, tons of heartless surrounded us. "You have got to be kidding he." I said as I looked around.

Alice quickly charged in and took out ten heartless. "You guys take care of them, Namine and I will get rid of these guys." I quickly looked to see Namine's sketchpad glowing as she quickly drew something and heartless started disappearing.

"Thank you." I said and I turned to face Haruka. She smiled at me as she slowly walked in my direction. I closed my eyes and focused on freezing the ground, and when I reopened my eyes the whole area started crystallizing.

The fight took to ice for a while before Vanitas started laughing hysterically and everyone stopped to look at him. The darkness that once outlined him was larger. "You guys are too late." he said and everything went pitch black. I couldn't see the where we were or my friends. I took a couple steps back and then I heard laughing coming from next to me. I gasped and looked in that direction. "you loose again." he whispered and then everything felt like it was being kicked before I felt a sharp pain in my stomach.

I let out a loud scream as everything returned to normal and I fell to the ground. I looked around to see everyone else was down as well. I curled up in a ball and placed my hand on my stomach. When I pulled away my hand was covered in blood.

"See you around Aqua." Vanitas smiled as he led Tomo and Haruka away, more than likely going to seek out this Volturi.

"Terra, Namine, Roxas!" I cried out but none of them moved. Alice was gone and I didn't know what to do. A minute later our car pulled up and Alice jumped out.

Her eyes were blank as she lifted me and the others into the car. "we need to get back now." she said. As she got in the car and started driving. Her hands were shaking a little, which was not normal. I looked out the window as a tear escaped my eye. I had failed and we were all going to pay for it.
