"Sora, we got to go to the Postern" We both whipped around to see the impatient wizard. Donald looked ready to run a mile and back. My head cocked to the side, why did he have to go there? Suddenly my brother appeared behind him. Cloud had a sad look on his face which I didn't like at all. I've seen him angered, happy, and monotone but, never saddened.
"We have to get ready sis, they might…" He trailed off, looking at the ground and I suddenly understood. I nodded, turning to Sora I gave a smile. He looked as confused as I had been a second ago.
"See ya later!" I laughed, running across the room to the little square that takes us to the ground floor. The blonde boy walked past the duck and next to me. I smiled at the two people of the team. I gave a small wave before disappearing under the floorboards, leaving a duck and a boy in my room. I hope they don't destroy anything.
I jumped off the block and quickly ran over to my buster sword which was leaning next to my brother's by the monitor. I tossed my jacket-which had been on the pommel of the weapon-to the ground and connected the grip with the magnet that Cloud had put on. I think it made sense; it would have been a pain to sheath it after all. Grabbing the long sword and tying it to the belt Aerith gave me. Turning to my brother and receiving the nod I was hoping for, I ran out the door and to the Crystal Fissure. I knew it was stupid to leave without Cloud but, I didn't want to wait forever…not that he would've but, anyway.
I sighed as I ran to the center of town. No one was at the Accessory Shop, or the Items Shop. I quickly scanned the area for any heartless or nobodies and found myself empty handed. I knew my brother would want me to stay here and stand guard so that the town wasn't destroyed but, I didn't think it mattered much if no one was left to protect. I sighed again and took off to my main destination. I didn't have to think, only run, and fight. I smiled as I ran past stone walls and building to the Bailey. I stopped a one of the windows and peered out of them to the valley bellow. My eyes went wide at one I saw. I couldn't believe at this exact moment they were going to attack. This was ridiculous! I growled to myself as I watched the nobodies shift like waves of water, there multitudes a little concerning. I shook it off and kept moving. Running down the steps I ran past a copper machine.
BOOM! I jumped. Startled I turned to see two Morning Stars shaking off impact with some of Shadows coming up from the ground. I groaned inwardly. I didn't want to fight these guys, they weren't challenging enough. Pulling out both swords I ground my teeth together before, lunging at one of the green spike balls. Batting it away with one swipe of the buster sword and sending it into one of the cold walls. The Shadows silently morphed back into the ground with splotches of black noting where they are.
I whipped around and stabbed the Morning Star where the heartless tattoo was with the long sword. I smiled and pulled my blade out. I felt a pain in my back as I turned to see that the other one had recovered. I groaned and quickly straightened up and ran towards my attacker. Sliding so that I was behind it, I shoved the buster sword underneath it and quickly stepped on the grip. Using it as a powerful teeter-totter, it flung into the air. I smiled and jumped after it as it came back down, I hovered above it before bring the other sword down and smashing it against the heartless, forcing it into the ground and to create a crater that was rather small. I guess it wasn't a Morning Star but, I think it's a Fallen Star now.
I turned to see a black figure with bright yellow eyes looking at me. I cocked my head to the side. What was a Shadow doing here? Then it dawned on me, there have been four or five wondering around under the ground. Pulling at the combat boots, I released four shurikens from the interior and smirked, holding one of four ninja projectiles between each of my fingers. I grinned wolfishly as the rest appeared, four shadows lined up, posed to attack. I sliced my hand threw the air, sending the volley of shurikens on them. I heard the soft harmony of four thumps as I struck home with each heartless. I smiled and placed my swords back in the sheath or on there magnet. Walking over and pulling the shurikens from there black bodies, I thought about what might be going on at the Postern.
I shook my head and kept moving. I visited the Postern often and learned some new tricks with computers but, I decided to stay away after almost shutting it down because of hitting random buttons. I found the right one to stop it but, I was still curious what would happen if I hadn't done anything. The thought burned in the back of my mind as I walked into the now changed area. Dark walls stood high on either side of me with beautiful crystals protruding from them. I sighed as I squeezed through giant gemstones that stretched out in every direction like fingers. I sighed and pretend to wipe some sweat off my brow as I turned to the edge.
I leaned over and was astonished by the scene. It was much more threatening up close then up at the Bailey. I sucked in a breath as I took in all the strange shells called Nobodies. I never once thought that so many existed in a single valley. Waves of silver and specks of brown rolled along with each other. Didn't they feel crowded? Did they even feel? Organization IIIX didn't have hearts but, could they feel touch and sense things? I sighed and sat on the rocky ground, looking over the mass sea of enemies. I pursed my lips as I kept my hand on the grip of the buster sword while I fingered the pommel of the sheathed long sword. This was going to be tough. After a few minutes of resting and mental preparation I sighed and picked myself up with the help of my blade and looked out towards the castle in the center. Hoisting the weapon's tip from the dirt I turned with the blade resting against my shoulder and let the point get some air as I strolled down one of the open tunnels and to a fight that I had to pick for myself.
As soon as I walked out of the fissure and into open light I was surrounded by five knight-like Nobodies. I arched an eyebrow at them, as if they were robbers trying to steal a purse from a bodybuilder that was fully loaded. I cocked my head to each side, cracking my neck. Quickly I took turns pushing my knuckles into an open palm till all of them were popped. I grinned and crouched down, both hands gripping the overlarge weapon. Immediately afterwards they leapt at me with their swords outstretched to run threw my heart. I frowned and flipped back, letting the tip of the blade drag across the terrain. I huffed in frustration. I didn't want to make this last long.
