Not much to really say except for the fact that I'm back from vacation, also I will be updating every other week now instead of every week because it's become too much work and I have no free time. The only other thing I'd like to point out is that there's a new cover image since a Pokémon one didn't really make sense to have for a Kingdom Hearts story. I got this image from WolfEmperor52 and with his permission of course so now I have a Kingdom Hearts cover for a Kingdom Hearts story. I just wanted to let you know this and that the image is not mine but I do have permission. With that said time to start the next chapter leave a review o let me know what you thought and let's get going.
Chapter 14 Visit From Ventus
"What the hell happened to you two?" Xion yelled as she saw Roxas and Namine walk into the house.
After the incident with Saix, Roxas and Namine headed to Roxas's house.
"Well I kind of got into a small fight." Roxas said
"you liar, if it was small then why do you look so beat up and tired/ I swear you're a mess. And also why on earth is Namine here?" Xion asked
"She's here because she needs a place to stay for the night." Roxas said
"Okay but she's staying in my room." Xion said
"Was there any other place for her to stay?" Roxas asked
"No, not really. Any way you should go in your room and see Sora, he's been worried about you for a while now."
Roxas nodded and headed into his room leaving Xion alone with Namine.
"So what happened exactly?" Xion asked
Namine remained quiet
"Can you please tell me? You've been silent for a while now and you're barley even spoken to any of us. Look we know you've been talking with Roxas"
""He told you?" Namine said
"No but then again he didn't have. We figured that he could trust him so we never said anything. But please tell me what happened.
Namine looked up; she couldn't hide things from her friends so he decided to tell Xion everything from over the summer to what happened earlier today.
"Hold on a minute, Saix didn't actually try to kill you did he. I mean he was just over exaggerating right?" Xion asked a she prayed that was the case.
Namine shook her head in reply. "I'm afraid not. Xion you weren't there. He looked like a monster. What's worse is he's going after someone these guys are crazy."
"Then you should call the police and let the handle it."
"That'll be about as useful as poking a bear with a stick. It's a pointless idea."
"I suppose if you think about it these guys aren't normal. With all this magic going around police are kind of useless." Xion said
"Yea but Roxas helped me and he protected me from Saix."
"Yea I know. So he finally awaked a Keyblade." Xion said proud of her brother.
"I don't know if that's what those things are called but he had two of them and what's more he was talking with them." Namine said
"I've never heard of anything like that with Sora or Riku." Xion said
"Roxas mentioned those two earlier as well. Exactly what is a Keyblade and how do these people have one?" Namine asked
"I barley know myself all I know is that the people who have them are supposed to be able to defeat some people like Saix. So I guess the people chosen are some kind of students that are better with magic then others." Xion explained
"And what sense does it make?"
"None I suppose. It's confusing but who knows. Either way I'm sure we can trust everyone." Xion said with a grin as Namine nodded
"Rough day for you bro." Sora said to Roxas.
When Roxas entered Sora's room, Sora quickly asked about where he was and hat ad happened to make him look in such a rough state.
"Tell me about it, and now we need to have Namine spend the night. Otherwise she could get hurt."
"Good plan and nice going. Not only is she talking with us now, but you also kicked that assholes butt real bad. That should teach him to mess with us." Sora said
"I doubt he'll stop that easily." Roxas said
"Well when he comes back, we'll be ready."
"Yo Sora, has Roxas returned yet?" Riku asked as he walked into the room.
"I have but what are you doing here?"
"Oh hey Roxas, good to see that you're doing all right. I and Sora tried to help you when we saw Saix follow you but for some reason, we couldn't get in." Riku said
"Looks like I'll have to tell the story again." Roxas said as he told Riku what happened.
Riku remained silent for a minute after he heard the story. "Sounds like things are heating up for us." Riku said
"Yea" Roxas agreed
"But Namine came here, funny because I didn't see her or Xion."
"I bet they're in their room talking about girl stuff." Sora groaned
"That wouldn't surprise me" Roxas agreed.
"Yea, well I came over to check up on you guys but it's good to know you are all okay. Anyway, it's been a long day, so let's get to bed." Riku said
"Wait, what you mean by that."
"I mean I'm tired and I don't want to walk home so I'll just sleep here."
"Awesome" Sora said
"Thanks for asking our permission first." Roxas said sarcastically
"Fine next time I'll ask you're magic talking dual wields Keyblades.'" Riku said
"Shut up" Roxas said annoyed that he even mentioned the fact that his Keyblades could talk.
'I'm just saying it's strange."
"Yea but he's lucky to get two of them." Sora complained.
"Yea but it just helps us out more" Riku said
"I guess, anyway before you get to bed you should go tell Xion and Namine that you're here." Roxas said
"Good idea" Riku said as he got up and left.
"I still can't believe how much has happened today." Sora said
"Yea tells me about it and tomorrow Ventus is coming for a visit.'" Roxas said recalling the letter that Ventus sent.
"Good point. He'll be surprised to see how many people are here."
"Can't be helped either way. With all that's going on, we could use some sense on all these crazy activities. Of course Ventus may have no idea what we're talking about and that would make our plan pointless." Roxas said
"Don't say that, it'll still be col to have Ventus visit here. I can't remember the last time he came over since he's so busy with college." Sora said
"Yes, it's always good to see family." Riku said as he walked into the room.
"Did you tell Xion that you're staying?"
"I said that and nothing else because they yelled at me since I walked into the room without knocking. They were pissed." Riku said
"Were they changing?" Roxas asked realizing that if they were then he could understand why they got so pissed.
"They looked like they had just finished."
"That would make sense. Xion also hates it when people never knock. That and it's kind of common sense to always knock before. You enter a girl's room." Roxas explained.
"Well look at mister women expert. You save one girl and now you know everything about girls. Roxas has become quite skilled wouldn't you say Sora?" Riku joked as Sora laughed.
Roxas rolled his eyes annoyed. "Look I'm just going to bed now okay." Roxas said
"Shouldn't you give Namine a good night kiss before going to bed? After all you were the hero who saved her." Sora teased
"She would just love that." Riku joked back.
"Tell me again how things are going with Kairi Sora." Roxas said
"... Cut it out." Sora said
"That's what I thought now let's get some sleep." Roxas said as he fell asleep but not before hearing two voices say "You did good today" He choose to ignore them but he knew they belonged to his Keyblades.
The next morning, Roxas was awoken by a knocking noise coming from the front entrance.
"Hello" Roxas said as he opened the door to find Ventus and two other people standing behind him.
"Good morning Roxas, good to see you again." Ventus said as he and his cousin exchanged a hug.
"How cute, this guy looks just like you Ven.'' the girl said cheerfully.
"We get that a lot. Anyway, Roxas these are my two best friends Aqua and Terra." Ventus said as he introduced his friends.
"Awesome, come on in.' Roxas said as he led all three of them into the house. "Everyone get up, we have guests!" Roxas screamed as Xion and Namine walked out of the room followed by Sora.
"Ventus!" Xion and Sora both said as they ran up and hugged their cousin. Shortly after Riku walked out and saw Ventus.
"Is he your cousin?" Riku asked as he pointed to Ventus as the Roxas nodded. "Some of a gun you two do look alike."
"What a surprise." The man named Terra said as Riku turned around and froze in shock.
"You" Was all Riku could say.
"Terra do you know this kid?" Aqua asked
"You could say that." Terra said with a slight grin.
"He was the man that made me into a Keyblade wielder." Riku said
"Wait this guy was the person you told us about?" Sora said surprised.
"So I take it all of you know about Keyblades." Ventus said
"Yea but more importantly so do you." Sora said
"Of course we do, we were the original three wielders. We learned how to use them in high school. So I guess we have some explaining to do." Ventus said
"That would be a big help." Xion said
"Well for starters we aren't really in college, we are training hard to get stronger and we're defeating creatures like heartless. I'm sure you've run into them." Ventus said as Sora and Riku nodded.
"Well they could be a threat so we have to stop them from growing too big in numbers. There are some other creatures similar but for the most part, they're all bad news." Terra said
"That's great but our issues aren't with Heartless, there with Xehanort." Riku said
"No surprise there, I had a feeling that old Bastard would still try cause trouble. You're all probably wondering why Mickey doesn't stop the club Xehanort has made students form." Terra said
"Yea I've been wondering how is it that he's just doing nothing." Sora said annoyed.
"It's not his fault. Xehanort a deal with Mickey that if Mickey allowed there organization to continue growing in the school, then he would return a student he nearly killed.
"Who?" Riku asked
"Me" Terra responded. "Xehanort used me and had me get consumed by darkness. I became his puppet and even attacked my friends. then Xehanort used me as a bargaining tool with Mickey I'm to blame, The deal was, Xehanort frees me and Mickey would all the organization to continue running around in the school as long as they never harmed anyone." Terra said
"Well then they broke their end of the deal. From what we know they are able to kill people and erase them from existence. That's how they have been able to keep going around all this time." Roxas said.
"That's impossible only Xehanort had such a power." Terra said in disbelief.
"I fought one of the guys yesterday and he had the power, I could sense it."
"That's impossible" Aqua said
"Well could Xehanort somehow share his power with others, I think that's what Namine said he did?"
"That's very possible." Ventus said
"And very bad. Are you telling me that Xehanort is still out there and causing trouble?" Terra said angrily.
"The problem is, we have no way to prove it. It's kind of hard to prove a person's dead when they never existed." Aqua said
"But we have evidence!" Roxas said
"We do" Everyone said.
"Give me a minute." Roxas said as he walked into Xions room and came out with a notebook. It was the one Namine drew in on that day. He then opened up the book to the page with Eraqus drawn in it.
"This was a drawing my friend Namine drew. Do you know this man?" Roxas asked.
"Yea I know him, his name is Master Eraqus and he trained all three of us... I think" Ventus said
"You think?" Riku said suspiciously.
"My memory feels weird for some reason. No he was our master, but for some reason we forgot about him. I wonder why." Ventus said shocked as Aqua and Terra looked just as surprised.
"He was killed by Xehanort yet for some reason my friend didn't forget him. I think she may be able to counter Xehanorts ability. When she draws a picture of someone being killed by Xehanort, then she can preserve the memory. I don't know why but I think it's something only she can do." Roxas said
"Then we have some evidence." Aqua said with a grin.
"So what does that mean exactly?" Namine asked still a little surprised and in doubt about what Roxas had said. She couldn't be so important, could she?
"It mean we no longer have to take this bastards shit, it means we can fight back." Terra said with a smirk.
