AN* I don't own Kingdom Hearts or Black Cat in any way.
Chapter 13
Once again Train was napping along the path to their next world when his dreams once again brought him back to the table, this time more of the chairs were filled. Looking at the seats that were filled he saw that all but four chairs were filled.
"What is going on here?" Train asked the man at the head of the table.
"A meeting of course. These should all be familiar faces to you." The man shrugged. Train looked at each person realizing that they were Chronos numbers, with Sephira Arks sitting right across from him and Mason Ordrosso to his left.
"This is a meeting of Chronos numbers, which I no longer am." Train pointed out.
"That is not technically true. The elders had no authority to get rid of you, and thus why you are still alive today. You are still our number XIII." The man explained.
"I don't want to be your house cat." Train growled.
"Nor will you have to be. The council is stuck in their ways and cannot adapt to the ever changing world. We cannot afford to keep to the old traditions if we want to stay alive. However the choice is ultimately yours if you want to stay Chronos." The man replied.
"For now I have no interest in being with Chronos. Besides I am not even on our world."
"And what makes you think that we are?" Jenos Hazard asked form the end of the table.
"What?"
"We have left our world to perform our true purpose." Beleze Rochefort grunted.
"And what would that be?"
"Until you rejoin us we cannot say." Sephira replied.
"Enough. Train you are approaching the next world, however I warn you that one of the thirteen is present." The cloaked man said.
"You mean Organization XIII?"
"Yes. The tattoo will warn you when the person is near." The man nodded as the dream came to an end. Train yawned and stretched as they arrived at the next destination, called Twilight Town. They disembarked and found that they were in a sand lot with four youths being terrorized by Nobodies. All of them reacting quickly they charged in to save the youths fighting the white foes. After defeating the basic Nobodies four new ones showed up. These were massive brutes with armor and giant claymores. Going back to back they each prepared to fight, Donald casting magic at them before they could move, Sora and Goffy using an combination attack that had Sora knocking Goofy's shields into them before they got close, Train firing bullets into the heads of the enemies.
Once the four giants were defeated they heard the comment "Impressive." Looking around quickly they saw a man in a the same coat as the Organization, and Trains tattoo started burning in warning.
"By the way, have you seen a man named Axel? I expect he's here somewhere."
"Like I care." Sora snapped.
"You see, Axel is no longer acting in our best interest." The man explained in such a calm voice that Train wanted to shoot the smugness right out of him.
"Is he with the Organization too?" Goofy asked.
"Yes."
"You havin' a fight?" Donald asked suspiciously.
"Not a very organized Orgainzation." Sora commented.
"Don't let your guard down. Axel will stop at nothing to turn you into a heartless." The man said.
"Gee, thanks for looking out for us, mister." Sora retorted, the remark dripping with sarcasm "But I'm sure we can take care of ourselves just fine."
"Glad to hear it. Axel aside it would break our hearts if anything happened to you."
"That supposed to be a sick joke?" Train asked, Hades still pointed at the man.
"True we don't have hearts." The man began as he removed the hood that was hiding his face, revealing his long blue hair and the cross shaped scar that was inbetween his eyes "But we remember what it was like. That is what makes us special."
"Whaddya mean?" Goofy asked.
"We know very well how to injure a heart." The man began as a portal to darkness opened "Sora, you just keep on fighting those heartless."
"Let's jump in after him." Sora whispered.
"What for?" Train asked.
"Not sure, but maybe he'll lead us to the Organizations home world." Sora replied.
"Don't be reckless." The man remarked "You don't want to end up like Riku."
"What?" Sora gasped as the man took a step back towards the portal. Train not wasting a moment threw Hades at the man who summoned a massive blue spiked claymore. Pulling back on the cord that connected the gun he pulled the trigger that it was wrapped around. As the gun came flying back the man charged forward and tried to smash Train's skull in. using Hades to block the man used his free hand to move Train's shirt and see the tattoo.
"An orichalcum weapon and the roman numeral XIII. You must be the Black Cat, I heard that you had been killed."
"Yeah. The Black Cat died, and came back a stray, cleaning up the streets as a sweeper." Train grinned as the man leapt back.
"This changes things considerably. To honor you Black Cat I shall give you my name and number. I am the Lunar Diviner, number 7, Siax. Be warned Sora, that man is not all that he appears to be." Siax said as he entered the dark portal leaving them confused and flustered.
