Hell hath no fury: Part 2

"Hey what are you doing here?" The group swiveled around sharply to see that a red headed woman had spotted them. She had long auburn hair that was held up with pigtails, her skin was fair and her eyes a golden color that where round with curiosity. She wore a white suit and had her hands on her hips like a school girl that was kept from a juicy secret. "Oh we are just taking these prisoners to the castle for experimentation is all dearest Lucy." The twins said in unison as they flashed in front of the elder young woman. "I thought you two ran away or something?" the red head said as she raised an eye brow. "But then again I never go to those meetings, they bore me half to death." She said scratching her head with a laugh. The twins giggled innocently along with her and then wrapped their arms around her waist. "Sweet Lucy would you please show us where Leain is being kept?" Lia began as she batted her eyes beautifully. "Warren wanted us to keep them there for the time being." Loe finished as he gave an enchanting smile to his superior. They were obviously tricking the red head into showing them where to go, almost like an unbirth guide. Thankfully the red head was to dimwitted to catch on to the twin's plot. "Ugh Warren." Lucy rolled her eyes. "Ever since they put him in charge he thinks he owns the place. It's so stupid, I mean I've been here for years now, this guy pops up out of nowhere and they give him MY job?" she continued to rant and the Twins listened impatiently as they humored her venting. Akira obviously looked uncomfortable at the mention of Warren so casually but she felt Faylin's hand comfort the small of her back and it helped her to keep her emotions in check. Lucy sighed heavily in defeat as she finished her tirade. "Yeah I'll show you were to go, hell if I can even remember anymore. They put the new girl on duty there, yet ANOTHER job noobs are taking from me. This is why I'll be so glad when we finally get rid of stupid Kingdom hearts, then no one can get their hearts back and I won't have all of these dweebs replacing me." She moped as she walked down the street, leading them to the supposed castle Leain was being held.

The twisted and turned around the deformed world of the Unbirths, all the while Lucy never stopped complaining to the twins. However Akira did her best to block out her annoying wine. She kept her eyes peeled, if someone recognized them that would mean their cover was blown and all hope she held in the salvation of Leain would be gone along with it. "Are you gonna be okay." She shifted her eyes to Salem who had whispered to her casually. "What do you mean?" "I don't know it's just…I don't know what's gonna be in this castle they are leading us to, and I know this is really hard on you so I wanted to make sure you were okay I guess." The blonde was so sweet as he tried to keep a low profile in trying to talk to her. In just the limited amount of time she had known him she had grown to really appreciate Salem. Granted his light was kind of agitating for someone of the dark, but it was so refreshing. Even in situations such as these when the atmosphere could almost choke you with its tension and suspense. "Thanks Salem." She said as she gave him a slight hand hug and released before it raised any suspicions from the red head. "I'll be okay I promise, just stay alert. If things get rough I need you to be at your best." She whispered in a calm command voice. The blonde nodded in understanding and continued to stroll behind their tour guides.

As they continued they came across other Unbirths who had to be the lower cadets. Anybody who had a real position had to of known the trouble the six of them had already caused for the organization. These had to be the goons that did the dirty work for the superiors. "Lucy what are you doing?" A young man gracefully walked up to the group with his hands behind his back. His face had a soft expression on it and like his fellow unbirth he wore an all-white uniform. His deep pink eyes full of curiosity as he glanced at the colorful group behind his red headed comrade. "Wait a second…Loe?" the boy cocked his head to the side and raised his eyebrow puzzlement. His rosy hair falling gently in his eyes in the process. "Oh my gosh Loe!" The young man's face shown with excitement as he ran towards Loe like a child. "I've missed you so much, where have you been, where did you go, how did you get back?" The pink haired boy talked a million miles per hour as he gazed at Loe adoringly. Loe held the boy's hands casually and winked playfully. "Another time my darling Emery, right now Lia and I are busy taking this group to the castle for experimentation." Emery smiled sweetly and nodded in understanding. "Alright I understand, well meet me in the Library whenever you can okay? I wanna hear all about it." He said gently and kissed the twin on the cheek to later skip away delicately. "That your boyfriend?" Salem asked shortly, narrowing his eyes at Loe in the process. "What Emery? Oh no he's just a sweetie pie who has had a crush on me since he got here, but I could never do the dirty things with him as I want with you." Loe said playfully while wrapping his arms around Salem's neck, winking at the blonde while only being inches away from his face. The girls giggled at the display of homosexuality being pushed upon Salem, and Faylin shielded his eyes in irritation. "You guys coming?" Lucy had already continued to go down the street during this time and was waiting impatiently for the group. "Yes ma'am!" the twins shouted back and had already flashed themselves to the back of the group and began pushing the others forcibly in her direction.

They finally reached the castle everyone had been talking about and like everything else about the world you could tell bits and pieces had to be from other structures of strongholds, however there was one thing even stranger than this. The mix matched fort had no visible door to speak of. Lucy never faltered however and instead of slowing her pace down just continued to walk straight through the wall. The twins continued to push the group onward regardless of their protests and like the red head had done before the group morphed through the concrete and made it inside a lavish waiting room of some sort. Akira and Salem's guard was instantly dropped as they stared in awe at the beautiful paintings decorating the elegantly designed walls, the gorgeous chandeliers that illuminated everything with an enchanting glow, and the magnificent white marble flooring that shown as equally as the rest of the room in beauty. Everyone else however were still up tight as the presence of more Unbirth became overbearing. But luckily for them Lucy had them walk on a platform that sat nearby and once all of the party had a stance on the cobblestone design in the floor, the edges of it began to shine and all of the sudden the stone flooring dropped an inch and then slowly began to descend into the depths of the castle. "Alright I'm going to have to leave after this." Lucy spoke calmly to the twins. "I'm supposed to be on the lookout for suspicious characters and I really need to get back to my post. All you do from here is go down this corridor, take two lefts, and his room is on the right 6 doors down. Here is the key." The red head instructed handing Lia the key. The cobblestone elevator landed gracefully at the bottom floor which seemed to be a labyrinth of the same cobblestone corridors decorated with prison cells and illuminated with torches. "You kids be good okay." She smiled as she began to ascend back to the higher level. Totally oblivious to the treacherous deed she had just committed.

"Salem?" Akira spoke up, her voice echoing off of the damp walls. "Yeah?" "I think I successfully found someone blonder than you and her hair is red." She busted out laughing and Salem glared at her with an irritated look on his face. "Shh Kira or else we are gonna get caught!" The twin's hands were over her mouth in a heartbeat, and her face flushed slightly with embarrassment. They swiftly ran down the corridor, following each instruction carefully that the naïve Lucy gave. Finally they reached the door they sought and Akira jumped up to look through the high iron bars in search for her brother that was meant to behind the wooden door. "Leain! Leain are you in there?" she whispered forcefully "Don't worry we are going to get you out of there!" she continued as Lia fumbled with the key.

"Hey what are you doing here?" Everyone froze as yet again they had been noticed by an Unbirth. They looked over to see that a young woman had been the one to address them. Her hair was long and gracefully framed her beautiful face with dark black locks. Her eyes filled with a dark glare as they glinted a vibrant blue in the torch light. She examined the oddly decorated group carefully and as soon as her eyes fell upon Faylin her entire body tensed up. "You!" She snarled and threw glowing knives from her hands at the white hair man. He swiveled out of the way effortlessly but was soon attacked by the woman like a ravenous beast. "You piece of shit! I'll tear you to pieces after what you did to me!" She screeched as new glowing knives produced in her hands and she swiped at the man's face. Akira then jumped into action and with her heartless speed and strength grabbed the woman by her hips and slung her off of Faylin. Her face scrapping on the stoned wall on the way. Akira ran to Faylin's aid and saw that thankfully there wasn't a single scratch on him, however his face was pale and he look as if he had seen a ghost. In seconds the woman regained her footing and was yet again after the two heartless, mainly focusing on Faylin as her target. However a flash of light irrupted from Gail's hands and before the psycho woman could do anyone any harm Gail cast chains of light to imprison the Unbirth to the wall. She snarled and snapped in a terrifying rage and spit at Gail's face as a way to get back at her for chaining her to a wall. "What happened to you?" Faylin almost whispered, but the sound of his voice was enough to bring everyone's attention to him. His hands shook as he continued. "What happened to you Jessamine?" Her face grew twisted at his question. "Well let's see now, I was brutally murdered, my heart eaten as I lay there dying, by no other than YOU!" the group gasped in surprise, all except Faylin whose pain ridden face only increased as the woman continued. "Thankfully though the Unbirths found my nobody and helped me to get my heart back. So here I am today a full-fledged Unbirth and helping them make the world a better place." She said with a demonic laugh. She enjoyed seeing the man suffer and it began to piss Akira off. "There is nothing good that can come from vanquishing Kingdom Hearts Jessamine." Lia spoke up, Loe finally getting the door to open and scrambling inside to get the boy they had come for during all of the commotion. "Like hell there isn't!" She snarled at the doll. "Without kingdom hearts all of the nobodies and heartless will eventually rot and be gone from this world. We will all finally be free of these monsters." She barked at Faylin, which made him cringe even more.

"He is not a monster!" Akira shouted back, now getting right into the woman's face. "Faylin is the greatest man I have ever met and has a light in him that no monster could ever posses." Akira's temper was rising as she spoke. "Who the hell are YOU to call us monsters, you're the one destroying homes and MAKING more of us!" It was then that Jessamine snapped one of her chains and slapped Akira in the face. The sound echoing all throughout the corridors. "You worthless monster!" She snarled at her and used her now free hand to grab Akira by the hair and began to slam her face into the wall. "Wow you're so stupid! He's got you so blind it's not even funny!" she wailed in wicked laughter as she continued to slam the girls head into the wall. The others too terrified to even move to help Akira. "Are you in love with him little one? Do you honestly think he cares about you?" Akira looked at Faylin who was still in shock of it all and his body shook in remorse as the pain of his past and now present becoming too great. "He doesn't care for no one but himself! He is a monster and deserves to die. Just like you!" Jessamine she growled and released the girl's hair, finally allowing the girl to fall to the ground. Akira landed on the ground with a loud thud, black blood oozing from her forehead. But that was the last thing on her mind, she wanted to be over beside Faylin who looked like a scared child. Salem broke out of his paralyzing fear and summoned his keyblade forth for batter. He ran towards the woman in an attempt to finish her off. However the woman had colossal strength and kicked her leg out which broke yet another set of chains. The poor boy got hammered with a barrage of swift kicks to his gut and was sent flying to the other side of the wall. Loe who had just gotten to the door frame dragging Akira's brother saw the entire thing and dropped the boy to run to the blonde's aid. Jessamine only laughed as she broke the last two of her chains restraining a hand and a leg and summoned her own weapons. Four slim harpoon like lances glowed in her hands. Two for each palm. It was then that Lia summoned her own weapon and took this opportunity to make an attack. But the crazed unbirth saw this coming used her lances to knock the girl's keyblade from her hand and dropped kicked Lia face first to the concrete flooring.

"Lia, no!" Gail shrieked in horror and stopped casting to run to the young girls rescue. The woman laughed at the sight of all the destruction her tiny frame was causing and wiped the sweat from her brow. She then looked over to see her true target and a twisted smile began to form on her dark face. She walked gracefully to Faylin, triumph already written all over her face. "Till death do us part bastard." She said as she raised her lance to the heavens, preparing to strike her weapon straight through the man's skull. However the lance was interrupted half way by an unexpected force. Jessamine glanced over to see Akira holding the lance steady, intense rage painted in her eyes and black blood continued to ooze over her eyebrows. "Big mistake lady." Akira almost whispered through a pant. Her voice however was coated with a demonic tone that only came when the darkness within her was beginning to surge and twist in her small frame. "What the?" was all Jessamine was able to get out as Akira transformed into her heartless form. A dark wind emitting from her heartless body and pushing Jessamine back with just her raw power. Akira put her hand on her bleeding forehead and flung her hand outward in the Unbirths direction. Her black blood hardening in the wind and turning into tiny black spears that were hurdling after the woman. Jessamine raised her lances as a shield but nothing could shield her for what came next. Akira formed a black portal underneath the woman, and Jessamine was dragged down by the darkness like quick sand. She screamed in pure terror and the think blackness carried her deeper into its abyss. Akira laughed at the helpless woman and jumped in after her.

The corridor got very quiet, and Gail and Loe looked at each other in shock and disbelief of the events that just took place. "Is she going to kill her?" Loe asked in a scared tone as he held the blonde close in his arms. "Honestly? I have no idea. Just pull him over here and I'll heal the both of these two as fast as I can. We have to get everybody out of here. Faylin!...Faylin!" but the man stayed unresponsive to his sisters call. His body still shook and his breathing shallow as he continued to have some sort of panic attack. Right as the white mage finished healing their comrades Akira returned through the portal in the floor. Her mouth was covered in red blood and her hand clutched a handful of long silky black hair. She didn't say a word to anyone at this point. She wiped her mouth off with her arm and walked to Faylin. He still continued to shake, as if he didn't even realize that anyone was even there anymore. A tear passed through her emerald eyes as she held Faylin close to her in an attempt to soothe him. The action snapped him out of his trance and he returned the embrace with one of his own. He breathed her in sweetly and kissed her brow where Jessamine had beaten her into the wall. "I'm so sorry." He whispered weakly. "Don't worry about it, let's just get out of here." She said smiling. Akira then swiftly ran to her brother who was still unresponsive on the ground and made a portal. "Let's go Leain" she whispered to him gently. She picked him up and threw him over her shoulder. "Come on guys " And she stumbled into the portal. Gail and Salem soon followed behind her and Faylin was soon about to go after them as well before he was stopped. "The boy isn't real." The twins said in unison. Each holding a grim look on their face. "What do you mean?" Faylin asked back with confusion is his ice blue eye.

"The boy is a doll." Lia said "I could sense it when I touched his skin. I don't know where the real Leain is but that's not him." Loe said. "That because I killed him." The three looked down the corridor to see Warren had heard the commotion and had now found them as well. "You killed him?!" Faylin snarled. "Why of course, it was the only way to show the superiors how devoted I was to the righteous cause. But of course I couldn't tell Akira that now could I? She would have seen me as a monster." He said with a cocky smirk. "Don't you dare even say her name!" Faylin shouted in pure rage. "Go Faylin." The twins said in unison. "We will hold him off until you and the others can escape, otherwise he will be able to track your portal." Faylin couldn't believe what he was hearing "You can't be serious! I won't leave you here with him!" the man growled at the blonde only for Warren to laugh in his face. "It's so funny how you think you can take me! What does Kira see in you I swear." Warren mocked. "Why you…" Faylin went to lunge for the blonde's throat but was stopped half way. "You want to protect her right?" he already knew who the twins were referring to. "y-yes I do. Of course I do!" he answered. "THEN GO!" The twins shouted, knocking the man in the portal and closing it behind him.
