Chapter 21. Yeah. Enjoy.
Universal Dreams
Chapter 21
Realisation
"What?"
"I remember it all." Sora and Riku were awake in their beds. They seemed to have woken up from a strange dream. "I remember the dreams. The reasons I fell unconscious. I remember it all."
Everyone had awoken due to Sora. They had all conversed in the living room so Sora could explain what he could remember.
"There was this voice that was teaching me how to use weapons. Something about emotions empowering them."
"Wait was this in a glass room?" asked Kairi. "Because I just had a dream of a voice telling me stuff too. It told me I had the power of light sleeping inside of me."
"Hang on that voice was the same for me," Namine interrupted. "It told me that light was my strongest power. Told me the light would show me the way."
"The voice told me that I could use light and dark as my power without them both consuming me," said Roxas. "Has this voice been telling us this stuff all this time. We just couldn't remember."
"Well it can't be right," said Riku. "He told me that the darkness was feeding on my heart."
"Yeah and it told me that the darkness was taking advantage of my broken heart," said Ven. "I've never had a broken heart."
"What do you think all this means Sora?" Kairi asked.
"I think… the final fight is soon," Sora suggested. "The voice did tell me the final fight was looming. I bet we have to defeat those men and defeat their master they keep referring to."
"Then we can go home?" Roxas said. "That time trap spell would be broken if we could beat them."
"Actually speaking of spells. Did you notice anything?" questioned Namine. "I felt this cool chill run through my brain as if something disappeared." She drew her Parfurno and tried to cast Firaga on Riku, but none did appear. As it turned out, everyone had lost their magical ability except from one or two spells. Roxas had managed to keep his Thundaja and Blizzaja. Ven had also kept Thundaja but had also learnt Aeroja. Sora had kept Refleja and had also kept Ruinja. Riku had kept Firaja and Ruinja. Kairi had kept Curaja and Quakeja. Namine had kept Waterja and Stopja. Everyone was distraught that all that hard work they had gained had now gone.
"So what do we do now?" Namine asked. "We've lost most of our magic and we have new powers that we don't even know how to use."
"Actually I know how to use mine," Sora interjected.
"Shut up. You use emotions. We have to try and find the light that exists in ourselves," Roxas snapped.
"Or darkness," Riku said.
"You know that isn't a good thing," said Ven.
"Yeah those guys can use darkness too," said Kairi worryingly. "we don't know what that voice meant."
"Well for now you lot can use what you can," explained Sora. "For now you can use me. We just have to find the place that those guys go to."
"I have a feeling the ship knows," Roxas pointed out. The ship that they were in seemed to by flying by itself. They saw a blip on the radar and assumed that that's where they were going. Soon enough they saw a large, grey world appear in front of them. It looked like a large crater that was floating on a grey disk. Dark clouds surrounded the rim of the crater while dark mist poured out of it. At the very centre lay a large fort that followed the curvature of the crater. Dark clouds also emitted from the centre of it. It obviously didn't have the same feel as the other worlds.
"You recon this is it?" Ven asked.
"Only one way find out," Sora replied. "Onwards!"
Very short this chapter. I promise the next one will be longer. This was just to get a few details round. The next 3 chapters are the final ones and all involve fighting. Just like with Organization High, the 26th chapter of Universal Dreams will be the 1st chapter of story 3. No details will be revealed about the name or content, just keep up with me if you wish to go on.
