Kingdom Hearts: Before the After

Chapter 14: Escape!

The three hooded men approached Eddie, who was trying to talk some sense into them, "Uh, well, I may not be your master but, well, I totally know a master. Yeah, he and me were good buddies-" The hooded men kept walking towards Eddie, "...silence...be still..."

Eddie tried again,"Hey guys come on, I'm just trying to make sure you don't get in trouble, you know, with the master." His words still had no effect on the hooded men. Eddie was cornered by the three sinister men, he had nowhere to run, until suddenly, he tripped over something.

Eddie got back up and there before him, was a large ax. He grabs the handle, trying to pull it out of the ground. As the hooded men came closer, Eddie finally pulled the ax out of the ground, "Yeah, ha, HAAA!" The hooded men were alarmed, "He pulled the Separator out of the ground?"

Eddie looks at his weapon, "The Separator, huh? Nice name..." Eddie then attacks the maniacal men, and quickly dispatched them. After a quick slash from Eddie's new weapon, the dying third hooded man spoke out, "...Druids...a hieratic has taken our master's weapon...STOP HIM!" Just as the hooded man died, more hooded men, Druids, came out of the piles of bones around Eddie.

Eddie took up the Separator and attacked, he cut through the demonic Druids and even batted their heads away, "ROCK'N SOUCE!" Suddenly, a stroke of lightning came upon one of the Druids, Eddie turned around and saw a Druid, picking at his guitar, "...what witchery is this?" The Druid picked at the strings again, but this time, the lightning attack struck him instead.

The Druids, realizing that the guitar was magic, tried to seize it, "...such a gift from the gods..." "...this could give us promotions on our jobs..." Eddie recognized the guitar as the Clementine, the guitar that he just fixed for the guitarist, "Hey, get away from that, I just fine tuned that thing!"

Eddie slashes the hoard of Druids that were in front of him while trying to get the Clementine. Eddie finally made it to his guitar, "Hmm, wonder if the strings still work, that dick was picking at it pretty hard." But as Eddie was checking for anything damaged on the Clementine, a couple of Druids were approaching him from behind.

Eddie played a small melody on the Clementine to see if it was alright, but when he did, three bolts of lightning came out and killed the approaching Druids. Eddie was "shocked" to say the least, to find out that his guitar could summon magic bolts of lightning, "What the F is going on?"

Eddie decides to leave the strange temple, and as he stepped out of the doors, he couldn't believe what he saw, the temple he was in, was on top of a large pile of bones, a corps pile actually. Eddie looked around, amazed at the new surroundings, "...I gotta lay off the cigarettes."

Eddie decided to make his way to the exit by climbing down the corps pile, but waiting for him, down on the ground, was a tall, red figure that looked like a nun, Eddie didn't buy the appearance, "Nice try lady, or whatever you are. Yeah, looking at you from behind, I'm supposed to think your a nun, but I know your really some kinda big and ugly demon."

Eddie pulls out his Separator and stands ready for battle, "So lets have it, 'nun'." The nun slowly stood up, it's size was unbelievably tall, her fingernails were like swords, and as she turned her face around to see Eddie, he saw no eyes or nose on the creature, just a zipper for a mouth, "Aha! I knew it, BIG – UGLY – DEMON!" The demon nun turned toward Eddie and started walking towards him, Eddie then noticed that the rest of the demon's form was, "Kinda sexy in a weird way."

The Nun roars out loud, spilling from her mouth, an immense poison gas, "Geez, gross, (cough) (cough), you're truly the definition of Metal Mouth!" Eddie was starting to get dizzy, the poison was getting to him, suddenly, out of the shadows comes the same creatures that attacked him and his world.

The creatures attack Eddie, weakening him and making him fall to the ground, as Eddie looses consciousness, the Nun prepares the finishing blow. But surprisingly, the Nun halts its attack, the creatures start to hiss, as the Nun fell down, a strange figure approaches the creatures, "The Unbirth, so you've been revived..."

Moments later, Eddie wakes up and sees the creatures and the Nun on the ground, dead, and a Druid coming near Eddie. Eddie jumps back, "WHAT THE HELL'S GOING ON!" The confused Roadie pulled out the Separator, and attacks the Druid, "Calm down, I'm not going to hurt you!" Eddie was surprised to hear a girl's voice coming from the Druid he was attacking.

The Druid pulls down her hood to reveal a normal face of a woman, "So, you have the ax. You must have come a long way to get it." Eddie was startled by her appearance, "Aw man. Don't tell me I've been slaying hot girls this whole time?"

The woman approaches one of the creature's bodies, and tries to pull out one of her daggers, Eddie approaches her and asks, "Uh, what are those things?" The woman replied, "Unbirths, they're creatures seeking the end of existence, if they're here, then that means your their target." Eddie asked, "Target? Why? I don't remember meeting these emo kids." Before the woman could reply, a sound is heard, "Crap, reinforcements, we have to leave, NOW!"
