Chapter 12: Keyblade war

Venitas stood on top of the pillar of the keyblade graveyard and held the x-blade in his hand looking up at the sky where the clouds were swirling covering kingdom hearts blue light.

Aqua and terra ran towards graveyard of keyblades and gasped seeing Ven on the pillar with his insane like body language and holding the x-blade complete in his hand.

Vanitas appeared before aqua and terra through a corridor.

"You!" Terra snapped leering at him. Vanitas stopped terra from saying anymore.

"Master Xehanort is no more so you don't have to worry about him."

"You mean you struck xehanort down?" aqua asked.

Vanitas looked up at his puppet who seemed to break free and killed master xehanort. "I didn't destroy xehanort…Ven did." he said looking at aqua and terra. They both gasped to hear that Ven had destroyed master xehanort.

"Ventus has broken out of my control and has the unversed under his control now, master xehanort must have made the darkness inside his heart go out of control, before he got stabbed…"

"We have to stop Ventus and free his light." Aqua said.

"But that will kill him." Terra said. "You even said so yourself vanitas." he said staring at Vanitas.

"Kingdom Hearts! The time has come!" venitas said to the sky while his voice echoed through the canyons.

Terra looked up and couldn't believe on what he was hearing, Ven's voice become a dark voice.

Aqua's mouth had widened as the swirl clouds were reliving a bright blue light.

"Ven stop!" Terra shouted.

"X-blade, open the door to kingdom hearts and show me the war!" venitas said holding the x-blade complete towards the sky yelling it out to the huge moon shaped like a heart.

A light was forming up from the x-blade and a bright light appeared and shined up to the sky.

"And just like legend says, the keyblade war will begin!" Venitas shouted with a insane smile while the light from the x-blade merged with kingdom hearts light.

Terra turned and saw keyblade warriors were coming from each different world; they all had their own keyblade and armor forms.

Aqua was shocked to see this many keyblade warriors had appeared.

"…the keyblade war has begun." Terra said as his voice drifted off seeing all of the keyblade warriors stand their ground.

"Stop, we all don't need to fight!" Aqua said grabbing one of the keyblade warrior's arm that was next to her. The warrior turned his head and got out of her grip and ran towards the light that shined on the pillar. The other keyblade warriors all rushed at the same time. It seem like Aqua, Terra, and vanitas didn't exist to the keyblade warriors while they flew past them.

Vanitas had no choice but to join forces with terra and aqua. He pulled out his normal keyblade and stared up at Venitas.

"We have no choice but to fight to the death." Vanitas said.

"But!" Aqua said. Vanitas leered at her with his golden eyes. "Either die or kill Ventus…those are our only options left!"

Aqua couldn't do it. She couldn't kill ven.

But she could hear the clashes of the keyblade warriors battling to the death to get kingdom hearts power and the x-blade.

Venitas jumped down after the crowd of keyblade warriors slashing them down with his x-blade complete.

"Give me the x-blade!" said one warrior knocking Venitas down. He quickly got up and kicked the warrior with one strong kick that sent the warrior sliding a few feet away and got impaled by flying keyblades that sailed down. Venitas turned his head and clashed with another keyblade warrior.

Aqua watched in horror seeing each keyblade warrior fade or die in the middle of battle.

Vanitas frowned, in anger, waiting for terra and aqua make their decision.

Aqua lowered her head and stared at the ground and had a flash back of Ventus's blood.

"You guys are such losers." Vanitas said and summoned out his keyblade to surf on and headed towards the battle.

Terra looked at aqua. "I'm sorry….but we have no choice."

"There has to be another way, Ven can't be Evil!" Cried aqua in angered tears.

"I know…but Master Xehanort has made Ven a darkness machine. We can't sit here, he might destroy our lights if we hesitate." Terra said.

Venitas slashed another warrior down and went on to the next. They clashed their keyblades and tried to push each other back. Vanitas came swooping down knocking a few warriors aside trying to get to ven.

He landed on the ground running towards Venitas and the keyblade warrior he was clashing with. But the other keyblade warrior blocked his path and rushed towards him. Vanitas got into a counter attack and punched one warrior to crash into the other.

Vanitas turned his head and walked towards ven.

"This is very interesting, Ventus." Vanitas said standing behind Venitas.

Venitas knocked the keyblade warrior down and turned his head. "Vanitas…" He said with a slight grin. The keyblade warrior was about to attack ven, but a flood came by and wrapped around the male's neck and scratched his armored face.

"I've seen you've made your fate, to die in darkness and betray me." Vanitas said.

"Your wrong I'm not going to die in darkness, but make everyone fear it, But you've chosen your fate to join terra and aqua, which means your light, master… I'll make sure this war will be one to remember." Venitas said pointing the x-blade.

"Hm, you've forgotten, I was the one who forged the x-blade, and now I take it back." vanitas said glaring.

They both clashed keyblades by running at each other.

Aqua opened her eyes and saw a flash of Ven, in his normal form. "Aqua, we can defeat this darkness together…"

She heard inside her mind, hearing his voice echo.

She looked up determined and put on her helmet. Terra did the same and ran towards the crowd of fighting keyblade warriors. Explosions from magic casting and powerful limit attacks from the warriors keyblades were keeping aqua and terra from reaching Vanitas and Ven.

Aqua looked up and saw Vanitas was starting to struggle by getting a few cuts on his face. Venitas pushed him down and had an inane smile pinning Vanitas chest down with his foot.

Terra turned his head and blocked an attack from the female warrior. "Aqua! Get to Ven, I'll hold them off!" Terra said holding back 3 warriors that appeared, and he tries his best to hold all three warriors back with his keyblade.

Aqua nodded and ran towards the pillar.

Vanitas was being kicked in the stomach a few times by ven trying to get up. He coughed out blood and snarled looking up at Venitas.

"W-What is this power?"

Venitas smirked. "its your darkness heeding through me."

Vanitas's eyes narrowed and he quickly stabbed Ven in his left shoulder with his keyblade. Venitas grunted and held the x-blade a little weakly from the impact.

Vanitas stab again and again, until slashing his blade a few times to cut ven until he could see ven howl in pain. Ven was then bleeding out from the mouth from the hard impacts vanitas gave him.

He opened his mouth wide as he were to have sharp teeth, his yellow flashing eyes with a frail look, while his body glowed with darkness making his appearance seem like a monstrous beast. Vanitas felt the pain as well but it was for the best since he was apart of ven. He yelled enraged, quickly gripping ven's neck with force. Ven felt the tight grip and grabbed Vanitas's neck as well with his other hand. They both were strangling each other trying to see who will give in.

Aqua jumped up to the top and was blocked by a keyblade warrior she looked up and saw the armored figure was her master, Master Eraqus. She gasped. "Master?" she asked.

The armor nodded its head. "I am with you Aqua, the keyblade war must be stopped, together along with Terra, we can free Ventus, if we concentrate."

Aqua nodded. She looked up as she pulled herself up and saw Ven and Vanitas. "Ven!" She cried, seeing him being strangled.

"Aqua, we have to wait for terra!" Eraqus armor formed said turning his head.

"I can't let ven die!" she said with anger and ran towards vanitas and ven's direction. But Eraqus grabbed her arm before she could pass him. She stopped and looked at him.

Terra was being hit by the magic the other keyblade warriors were casting.

With all his strength, Terra knocked 13 warriors down with his focused energy of his powerful attack.

He looked up and ran towards the pillar Ven and Vanitas were. He jumped up and saw Eraqus's armor form stand before him.

"Terra, we must focus all of our energy to break the chains of darkness concealed in Ventus's heart."

Terra looked at his master and then to Aqua. "But, we need to free ven first from his neck snapping!" Aqua shouted trying to break out of Eraqus's grip.

"Wait…"

"What! Master have you've gone mad! Ven's going to die if we don't do anything!' terra shouted in rage.

But the master knew if this is right, then it will make the process more successful.

Vanitas and Venitas were both bleeding from their mouths while it dripped down from their necks. Their hands covered in each of their own blood. They both stared eye to eye before making the final decision.

Venitas had his mouth open, gagging out darkness that was thick as his blood. Vanitas gritted his teeth while he squeezed harder. Venitas was doing the same.

CRACK!

There was a huge scent of silence when the sounds of a snapped neck had appeared into the scene. Terra and aqua watched in horror.

Vanitas and Ventus were both standing in the poses they were in of strangling. Every keyblade warrior stopped and looked up at the two warriors in a strangling position, waiting to see one of them fall. Time had to be frozen at that moment.

Ven was the first to fall back and Vanitas followed behind him while he fell on top of Ven. From what aqua and terra saw, It was a tie.

Ven could feel Vanitas's blood drip onto his face before he was starting to die as well.

"…Ventus…" vanitas said and leaned in close to Ven's mouth and gave a mouth to mouth closed his eyes as he felt Vanitas's lips on his. Vanitas slowly faded away into light of the pale blue dark sky. Ven's golden eyes were starting to dim as he looked up at the blue pale light of kingdom hearts shine down on him. His fingers twitched while he was breathing his last breath. "Aqua…Terra…I'm sorry…" He said inside his mind, while he began to lose all hope.

"Aqua, terra now!" master Eraqus said aiming his keyblade at ven. Aqua and terra looked at their charms and closed their eyes tight. A huge light appeared in their keyblades.

"VENTUS!" They both cried. The light hit Ventus's black heart that almost lifted out from his chest.

The light from terra and aqua's keyblade had saved his heart and purified it. The x-blade had became a shattered keyblade and it faded away into the sky, but some particles remained in his skin.

The light faded away. Terra and aqua saw ventus laying on the ground not moving and he had a few cuts across his arms and body. Aqua and terra both ran towards ven.

"Ven?…Ven?" Aqua said holding Ventus in her arms trying to wake him up. Terra leaned down to his knee and placed his hand on Ventus's head.

They waited for a response, to happen. But there was no response. "Oh, Ven!" Aqua said crying burring her face in Ven's head, Terra looked down. He began to cry, but silently.

The war seemed to have stopped. All the keyblade warriors all watched the two warriors weep on their friend. They all began to leave in silence, back to their own worlds.

Aqua and terra both were in deep sadness. They were crying so much that they didn't hear Ven's soft voice.

"...Terra…Aqua? Why are you crying?" He said softly and quietly while he felt his friend's tears on his skin wiping the blood off his face.

Terra and aqua both opened their watery eyes and saw that ventus had his blue eyes and cute smile and was his normal self. They both smiled at Ven.

"W-We thought we would lose you, Ven." Terra said in a snuffle. "We thought you would fade forever…" Aqua said wiping her tears with her arm.

"Terra, Aqua…" Ventus said before pausing.

"Yes ven?" they both asked trying to pull themselves together.

"Thank you…" Ven said with a smile. Aqua and Terra both hugged Ven close to them.

Ven closed his eyes still smiling, feeling terra and aqua's loving embrace, they gave him.

"Ven, we've missed you…" Terra said. "I know with out you, we could never had the courage to keep on fighting, fighting for your freedom."

"R-really?" ven asked looking up at Terra.

"Of course, Ven. You are our friend." Aqua said stroking his spiky hair. She then giggled. "You mean a lot to me and terra, we just want a better and safe future for you."

Ventus nodded. "But deep down, I feel guilty." he said lowering his head.

"Why's that ven?" terra asked.

"I feel like I've let someone down…someone very important." Ventus said placing his hand on his chest. He slowly closed his eyes and then reopened them. "Terra, Aqua, can I go to sleep?" He asked. "If you want to ven." Terra said.

"But I have to leave, if you don't mind. But I'll be back I promise, in your hearts."

He got into his armor form and left the keyblade graveyard. Terra and Aqua watched ven leave and looked up at the sky.

They both knew that Ventus wouldn't return.

DESTINY ISLANDS:

Young Sora looked up at the sky and turned his head.

"Huh? Who's there?" He said looking around. He looked up and saw Ventus.

"Hello, Sora." Ventus said. "Hi." Sora said.

"I want to apologize…" Ven said.

"Why?" Sora asked looking a bit worried.

"Because, I could of destroyed all the worlds and maybe you too…but deep down, it was your light that saved me from my last breath."

"I did? I saved you?" Sora said. Ventus nodded. "Sora…I was wondering if I can be with you."

"Are you sad?" Sora asked.

"I'm afraid that if I go back, the darkness inside me might try to reawaken in my future and try to relapse again…I know my heart needs a warm safe place, away from the darkness, so can you do that for me?"

Sora nodded. "if it will make you feel safe." Sora said and held ven's hand. "Thank you…" Ven said kneeling down to hug sora close and faded into a burst of light and went with Sora. Sora felt Ven go to sleep in his heart, he smiled.

-0-

Terra and Aqua looked up at the night starry sky and smiled. They knew that Ven was free and was not corrupted by darkness ever again, with the help of his friends and the next chosen keyblade master. They knew deep down, their "friendship was the key to unlocking the heart…"
