Chapter 15: The Battle of 10000 Enemies

A/N: Yes I said it. 10000 Enemies. Digimon who can Digivolve, yeah, 1000 just can't cut it. Plus 8 Kids who can fight, can't cut it even more. Not to mention certain powers they can access. With actually facing 10000 heartless in a game, alone, yeah, you'd probably Level Up, 12 times, Maximum. I wanted to type fast, because I wanted to upload the same day of my birthday.

I Do Not Own Digimon or Kingdom Hearts

They saw the sight of heartless, nobodies, and Dark Digimon everywhere.

"This must be official." Joe said. "Radiant Gardens is at war with the Heartless, Organization and Apocalymon."

"We'll do everything we can to help." Tai said.

"We'll never give up." Kari said. "We should split up."

"How about all of us split up." Goofy said.

"But, we never did that before." Tai said.

"Are you worried about Kari?" King Mickey said.

"I'll be fine Tai." Kari said. "I promise, I'll come back, safe, and alive."

"Well..." Tai started. "...Oh, okay. I guess there's no convincing you."

*VIM AND VIGOR*

"Right." Sora said. "Let's go!" They nodded, and they split up, but not in groups. They all split up, singularly.


Ravine Trail

Kari charged at the impending heartless, and was fighting them.

"Hey Kari! I can help!" Yuffie exclaimed throwing a star over there.

"Yuffie!" Kari exclaimed. She kept disappearing, and reappearing near heartless, slashing them with stars. Kari helped out by throwing each of them into the air, and Yuffie finishing them off. Soon, there were no more heartless.

"Alright, get going." Yuffie said. "The others are waiting."

"Got it." Kari said. She ran forward. Cloud and Leon were back to back on each other.

"Think you can handle this many?" Leon said.

"Well, might be tough if one more comes up." Cloud said.

"Then that will be the one I take care of." Leon said.

"What? You're fighting too?" Cloud said. They charged forward, and fought off the heartless.

"Leon!" Kari exclaimed. "You're alright!"

"Nothing keeps me down." Leon said. His gunblade then enlarged with great energy. He slashed all of the heartless up, and Kari struck them down. Then, she preformed Rising Sun, which she rose up, and thrust forward, flying through them. She then finished them all off.

"So that's how you were able to take on all those heartless." Kari said.

Leon: "Go!"

"Right!" Kari exclaimed. She ran forward to the next area. She saw the woman that helped Cloud earlier. "Oh, hey! Do you need help!?" She charged and slashed some heartless.

"Hey, how come a little girl like you is fighting?" The woman said.

"Well, for my friends." Kari said. "I'm Kari."

"My name's Tifa." The woman said.

"You sure you can handle this many?" Kari said.

"Of course I can." Tifa said. "Watch me." Kari didn't realized she was great at martial arts. She kept punching and kicking all of the heartless.

"Whoa. That's, amazing." Kari said. More heartless appeared behind her, and she attacked them, with no hesitating. Then, preformed Rising Sun once again, and Tifa did a move, when she punched, and a orb of lightning came out of it, and destroyed the rest of the heartless.

"Alright, get moving!" Tifa exclaimed.

"Right." Kari said. She went on ahead to a cave entrance, but then more heartless appeared surrounding her. "Uh oh. This is bad. *Exhale* Alright. I guess I need to go into Master Form a-" Then, a blinding light came, and behind Kari, was Cloud. He thrusted down, and all of the heartless were pushed back. "Cloud!"

"Need some help?" Cloud said.

"Thank you." Kari said. They then slashed more of the heartless. Cloud perform something like a slide dash, and threw all of the heartless up. Then, Kari slashed up, and then, finished them off. "Thanks again, Cloud. Did you ever find, Sephiroth?"

"Yeah." Cloud said. "Not a too good reunion, let's just say."

"Oh. Well, hopefully you'll find your light. I know it's in there." Kari said. "You have to trust me." She went on.

"...She really believes I have light in me." Cloud said.


Crystal Fissure

In the Fissure, Kari ran in there, and then was panting.

"*Panting* These heartless are getting stronger and stronger." Kari said.

"You can say that again." Gatomon said, behind her. The rest of the group came.

"Whew! I'm really getting tired." Tai said.

"Other than this, this place is beautiful." Mimi said. "I'd like some crystals from this place."

"Time to see what they've got for us." T.K. said, looking ahead at the path on.

"Hopefully we can handle it." Kari said. They nodded, and they went on, after taking a breather.


The Great Maw

They ran into the seemingly empty valley, when they stopped abruptly.

Mickey: "Huh?"

"What's going on with them?" Agumon said. The Nobodies and Dark Digimon all around the valley didn't attack them.

*MUSIC STOPS*

"Well, nice of you to join us." A voice said. A image of Apocalymon was there.

"Apocalymon!" Tai exclaimed.

"Like my little surprise?" Apocalymon said. "Now, I've gain control of the Nobodies as well. If only my request for heartless came. Oh, but they don't need my help, so they say."

"So, you probably have control of Organization XIII." Sora said.

"Well, unfortunately for me, no." Apocalymon said. "And that Demyx. Spoiling it for you."

"Well, the Princess of Heart will be able to defeat you, once she is crowned a true princess." King Mickey said.

"Ah, and you must be the King of Disney Castle, King Mickey." Apocalymon said.

"But, how about one true question." Sora said. "If these Digidestined kids defeated you, then how exactly are you back?"

"Well, maybe you can say it's luck, or fate." Apocalymon said.

"Fate has nothing on you here!" Gatomon exclaimed. "We'll come, and destroy you for good!"

"Oh, will you now?" Apocalymon said. He was chuckling evilly. "Well, do you know where exactly I am? I'm in the ruins of your world."

"Why would you be in nothing?" Sor said.

"No, it's another place." Sora said. "The remains of a world is in the Darkness. Most likely, the remains of your home is in there."

"Oh, and I have all these civilians to play with me." Apocalymon said.

"You rotten...!" Sora exclaimed.

"Are you all mad? Including you, Digidestined of Light?" Apocalymon said. "Or, is hurt and pain holding your heart?"

"Hurt, and pain?..." Kari said, holding her heart.

"Oh, but, I won't be sticking around here for long." Apocalymon said. His image flew away.

"Wait! Come back!" Mickey exclaimed. He ran after him.

*BATTLE OF 1000 HEARTLESS(Pre-battle. AKA, cutscene only music)*

"We need to go after them!" Kari exclaimed. Then, they were surrounded by Heartless, Nobodies and Dark Digimon from everywhere.

"What the...!?" Tai exclaimed.

"We're surrounded!" Goofy exclaimed.

"There must be thousands surrounding us." Izzy said.

"Move it!" Sora yelled.

"We can't let Apocalymon get away!" Donald exclaimed.

"Right!" Kari exclaimed. She looked behind her, and saw everybody ready to fight, 10000 Enemies. "We can do it. We faced off with Apocalymon before, and we can fight more than 1000 of our enemies!" They all gave her a thumbs up. They then charged at the heartless, being a 19 man army.

*SINISTER SHADOWS*

They all struck all at once. A few struck Kari a few times.

She then preformed Rising Sun, though didn't defeat many enemies though. It's not many, because, compared to the army, it's just a scratch in their defenses.

ENEMIES: 00025

T.K. then snagged one of the tank type heartless, and then performed Sparkle Ray, which took out most of the Enemies, though in its limited range.

ENEMIES: 00132

"These tank type heartless takes out the most of them." T.K. said.

"You know what else can take out most?" Patamon said.

"Digivolving." Gatomon said.

"Okay!" Kari exclaimed. They took out their Digivices.

"Gatomon! Digivolve to...Angewomon!" Gatomon yelled.

"Agumon! Digivolve to...Greymon!" Agumon yelled.

"Gabumon! Digivolve to...Garurumon!" Gabumon yelled.

"Patamon! Digivolve to...Angemon!" Patamon yelled.

"Tentomon! Digivolve to...Kabuterimon!" Tentomon yelled.

"Gomamon! Digivolve to...Ikakumon!" Gomamon yelled.

"Biyomon! Digivolve to...Birdramon!" Biyomon yelled.

"Palmon! Digivolve to...Togemon!" Palmon yelled. The Digimon then attacked the heartless, and they made some decent progress.

ENEMIES: 00956
(A/N: Yeah, the Digimon could do this much damage to the enemies, at this level, looking at how far they've gotten right now, in Leveling Up.)

Tai and Matt then were casting Fira, Blizzarda, Thunda, and reflect, when the tank heartless tried to blast them, and they were shot back at them!

ENEMIES: 01139

Kari then didn't watch where an attack was coming, and got hit repeatedly, by the enemies.

"T.K.!" Kari exclaimed.

"I'm way ahead of you!" T.K. exclaimed. They activated their Limit, preforming Diving Slash, which they dive all around the place, slashing heartless, Lightning Slash, which they attack with wind and lightning, and Pure Light, which they finish it off with a giant sword, and slash the enemies everywhere.

ENEMIES: 01418

"There's too much." Kari said, panting. She then got slashed by one, and knocked down.

"Kari!" T.K. exclaimed.

"Are you okay?" T.K. said.

"I'm fine." Kari said. She was about to cast Curaga, but they got blasted by the tank heartless, and she got attacked again. She was looking blue.
"I can't get anywhere near Kari, or heal her without Heartless attacking her." T.K. said.

"I'll never give up..." Kari said. "Light...I need to keep my light burning strong." She started to glow. "GIVE ME STRENGTH!" She activated a form, but it was a whole different form.

She then was wearing Sora's clothing from Kingdom Hearts 1. With the red jumpsuit, the loosely worn blue belt, a black hoodie, over the jumpsuit, the gloves, the whistle she wore was replaced by a crown pendant, like the one Sora has, and the large yellow shoes. Her keyblade became the Kingdom Key.

"Whoa! Are those my old clothes?" Sora exclaimed.

"You used to wear those?" Mimi said, slashing one heartless.

"Whoa...Cool." Kari said, observing herself.

"Kari! Here! You need this!" Sora exclaimed, throwing her an ether.

"Thanks! Alright. Time to test this out! SONIC BLADE!" Kari yelled. She dashed as quick as lightning through the heartless, up to seven time, and with a finisher.

ENEMIES: 01809

"Whoa! That's a lot of heartless." Kari said. "Now, uh, let's try this! STRIKE RAID!" She threw her keyblade at the heartless up to 5 times, and finished it with a critical finisher.

ENEMIES: 02162

"That's what I'm talking about!" Kari exclaimed.

"Look out! Here comes the Dark Digimon!" Greymon exclaimed.

"Scorpiomons!" T.K. exclaimed.

"That's not all! There're Gazimons!" Tai exclaimed.

"There's going to be a lot of Digibits once we're done with them." Matt said.

"No problem." Kari said, giving herself an ether.

"Here we go! ARS ARCANUM!" Kari yelled. She set out a furry of slashes against the Dark Digimon, up to thirteen, and laid a devastating finishing blow.

ENEMIES: 02620

Limit Form was about to wear off.

"Aww. I was just getting used to this." Kari said. "But first, how about this move!? RAGNAROK!" She set out a fury of aerial attacks, and then, finished it off, with a Giga Impact, which she shot big beams out of the tip of her keyblade.

ENEMIES: 02867

Then, the form wore off, and she was back to her regular clothing.

"Well, there's still, like, a million more to go." Tai said.

"Is this a bad time to ask for a water break?" Greymon said.

"Or a bathroom break?" Kabuterimon said.

"Ah, phooey! You should have gone before we're facing off with these much enemies." Donald said.

"How am I supposed to know this?" Kabuterimon said. Then, one of the heartless attacked him, and he landed roughly on some heartless, though they were defeated, somewhat.

ENEMIES: 02883

"And that..."

"We need another way to destroy more!" Matt exclaimed. "Slashing at them just makes a few dents in their defenses."

"We need to go further in Digivolving!" Greymon said.

"I thought that's all you guys could do." Sora said.

"Nope! We can go even further!" Garurumon exclaimed.

"Well, how about hurrying it up!" Donald exclaimed. "They're crowding us!"

"Go get them guys!" Tai exclaimed. The Digivives, except for Kari's, since Angewomon is as far as she can go in Digivolving(for now at least).

"Greymon!...Digivolve to...MetalGreymon!"

"Garurumon!...Digivolve to...WereGarurumon!"

"Togemon!...Digivolve to...Lillymon!"

"Birdramon!...Digivolve to...Garudamon!"

"Kabuterimon!...Digivolve to...MegaKabuterimon!"

"Ikakumon!...Digivolve to...Zudomon!"

"Whoa! You never told us they could Digivolve this far!" Sora exclaimed.

"And another level after this." Tai said, slashing at some Nobodies.

"Time for some action!" MetalGraymon exclaimed. He shot out from the Giga Blasters, and massively destroyed some of the enemies.

ENEMIES: 03233

"Gawrsh, they're doing a number on them!" Goofy exclaimed.

"I hope they'll defeat a whole bunch of them, before they run out of energy, and De-Digivolve." Tai said. They charged at the heartless, and defeated a whole bunch of them, thanks to the Digimon. WereGarurumon attacked some, with Wolf Claw, and Garuru Kick. He dealt massive damage to the army.

ENEMIES: 03721

"I think that's a couple hundred more than what MetalGreymon did." Matt teased.

"Oh, be quiet, and beat up these suckers." Tai said, annoyed, while slashing a few heartless. MetalGreymon attacked with his other attack, Mega Claw.

ENEMIES: 03945

"Who says I'm a couple hundred short?" Tai said.

"Oh, stop teasing each other." Sor said. Garudamon attacked a whole pack of army, surrounding the group, split up, and dealt more than enough damage, with Wing Blade, with flying through a whole line of enemies, and Phoenix Claw, as they were about to pile on some of the Digidestined, and squeezed the hearts out of the heartless.

ENEMIES: 04526

"And, a new record." Sor said.

"Right now, all you're doing is competing to see who defeats the most enemies." Donald said. "While we're here, fighting."

"Okay. Okay." Tai said. "Don't get your feathers in a bunch." Donald sighed, and casted Thundaga around them, and dealt some good damage.

ENEMIES: 04602

MegaKabuterimon then flew up high, and shot down an electric blast, from Horn Buster, down onto the enemies.

ENEMIES: 04863

What was left was a crater of smoke.

"I can see the town from here!" MegaKabuterimon shouted down.

"We're not sight seeing, MegaKabuterimon! We're fighting!" Izzy exclaimed, guarding against a heartless. Lillymon shot down a giant green energy blast, from Flower Cannon, and dealt massive damage to the 10000 enemy army.

ENEMIES: 05324

"Talk about flower power!" Mimi exclaimed. Zudomon then slammed his hammer down on many DarkGazimons, and DarkScorpiomons, with Vulcan's Hammer, and from the aftermath, comes lightning bolts striking many enemies. Also, he threw his hammer against many heartless, with Hammer Boomerang, and, of course, came back to him.

ENEMIES: 05925

"If we're really keeping count, Zudomon takes the win." Joe said.

"His hammer is used as a boomerang!" Tai exclaimed. "That's not fair!"

"Can we get back to fighting?" T.K. said.

"Mostly because, the Digimon are already exhausted!" Kari exclaimed. The Digimon de-digivolved to their rookie forms, and were vulnerable. "Salamon!" She ran towards the helpless rookie Digimon, and protected them, by snatching one of the tank heartless, and shooting a beam around them.

ENEMIES: 06041

"Are you okay?" Kari said.

"I think we are. Though we're exhausted." Salamon said.

"It looks like almost three-fifths of their army has been taken out already." Izzy said.

"I think I know how to get more!" Kari exclaimed. She remembers the armor they had(Yeah, I haven't been really utilizing it in the chapters lately). They hit against it, and their metallic Keyblades formed. They threw them off, and they came back towards them, as a hover board, and a glider. They all got on, with their rookie Digimon on their backs, and they took off, fighting through a straight line, dealing damage, and defeating their enemies.

ENEMIES: 06210

Basically, with the hover boards, and the gliders, they're ramming them into the enemies, and destroying them. It is getting rid of a lot of enemies.

ENEMIES: 06835

After a while, they got off, and then they turned back to the metallic keyblades again. They began to fight, dual wielded.

"We're running out of options here!" Izzy exclaimed.

"We can still take them!" Sora exclaimed. "It's all for one, and one for all, right?"

"Right." Kari said. She then got enough energy to enter Master Form. She glowed brightly, and turned into the form, and started to slash at the enemies, defeating them, one by one.

ENEMIES: 07086

She did the Ground finisher, which she floated around the enemies, and sucking them up, and were floating around her. She slashes them all, and they were all defeated. Massive enemy count.

ENEMIES: 07426

She then jumps up into the air, and attacks the surrounding enemies, and finished it off with the Aerial Finisher. Multiple enemies were flying everywhere.

ENEMIES: 07542

Unfortunately, she wore herself off, and she turned back to normal.

"This isn't good." Tai said.

"We still have, like thousands surrounding us." Matt said. For Kari, she performed Rising Sun, and took out enemies, in straight lines of slashes. Also, for a combo, she grabbed one of the tank heartless, and shot out a ray out to the surrounding enemies.

ENEMIES: 07764

It's making some decent progress.

"That could be out most valid option right now." Izzy said.

"Keep on doing this, and we should be fine." Tai said. They all began to perform Rising Sun, and Sparkle Ray, which, together, took out big amounts of the army.

ENEMIES: 08124

"Tai! How about a Limit?" Kari said.

"I'm all for it!" Tai exclaimed. They activated the Limit, which they performed Courageous Strength, which Kari spins around, and knocks enemies into the air, and Tai spins, and knocks them down, then Courageous Magic, which they repeatedly casted magic around them, Fira, Blizzarda, and Thundera, which were more powerful. Then, after performing the moves repeatedly, they finished it off with Courageous Light, which they slashed at lightning speed at the heartless, nobodies, and Dark Digimon, and slammed down, making the violent shockwave, sending many, many enemies flying, and defeated.

ENEMIES: 08547

"Ugh, this is still taking a while." Tai said. It has been a while, and Kari was able to go into a Drive Form again.

"Okay, let's give this another try." Kari said. "LIGHT!" She transformed into another form again. It was Limit Form again. Like before, she got Sora's old clothing, and the Kingdom Key. "Let's try this! STRIKE RAID!" She threw the keyblade up to 5 times, and defeated multiple enemies, with a critical finisher.

ENEMIES: 08842

"There's not as many around us!" Izzy exclaimed.

"Keep it going Kari!" Tai exclaimed.

"SONIC BLADE!" Kari yelled. She dashed quick as lightning through most of the enemies, and destroyed many.

ENEMIES: 09045

"Kari!" T.K. exclaimed, while throwing an ether to her, restoring most MP.

"Thanks." Kari replied.

"How about another Limit." Tai said.

"Right. Donald, Goofy!" Kari exclaimed.

"Uh, if it's okay with you Sora." Goofy said.

"It's always okay." Sora said.

"Okay! Let's go get them!" Donald exclaimed. They activated their Trinity Limit, and they attacked with their attacks, Major Drive, which took out many enemies all around them.

ENEMIES: 09189

Ultima, which they conjured many fireballs, more than usual, everywhere around the battlefield, and they exploded on each of the enemies, and most of them were defeated.

ENEMIES: 09328

And then they performed Break, which they repeatedly slash against the enemies, and thrusted through them.

ENEMIES: 09508

"There's still some left." Kari said. Her Limit Form was about to run out.

"We need to use all of our power." Donald said.

"We'll take them out in one move!" Goofy exclaimed.

"Right!" Kari exclaimed. They all concentrated, while the only enemies left were the Dark Digimon. The group was all exhausted from fighting, and couldn't fight anymore. The trio concentrating their power, and they all casted a spell even higher and similar than Magnetaga, even though Kari hasn't learned the move yet. All the remaining Dark Digimon were hovering over them. "TAKE THIS!" They all raised their weapons, and there was intense light pounding against the Dark Digimon. A giant explosion, with blinding light filled the scene. When it died down, no Dark Digimon were left in sight. Every enemy was defeated!

ENEMIES: 10000

*MUSIC ENDS*

They were all panting, and Kari fell down on her back, exhausted.

"I can't believe it...We, just took on thousands of Dark Digimon, Heartless and Nobodies." Joe said.

"It's all for one, and one for all." Goofy said.

"Poor girl. You tuckered yourself out too much." Tai said.

"*Panting*...Nah. I'm just taking, a breather." Kari said.

"Don't push yourself Kari." T.K. said. "You still need to stay up to fight Apocalymon eventually."

"Don't worry." Kari said. "I can still fight." She gets up, but starts to lose balance. She was able to stay up. "See? I'm alright."

"Apocalymon could still be near by." Izzy said.

"Then we need to follow him. King Mickey is still with him." Kari said. They nodded, and they ran to help out King Mickey.


The Dark Depths

They saw King Mickey confronting Apocalymon.

"Your majesty!" Koromon exclaimed, as they ran up to them.

"Apocalymon!" King Mickey said.

"This realm is too, bright, if you know what I mean." Apocalymon said.

"We want answers!" Tai exclaimed.

"And I wanted to rule over the Digital World, and the Real World, and cover it with darkness." Apocalymon said. "But you know, people never allow some people to do anything."

"Talk!" Sora exclaimed.

"What do you know about their world?" Donald said.

"Why don't you embrace darkness, and come with me." Apocalymon said.

"But..." Kari said.

"Oh, of course, you must follow the rules of a Princess of Heart, and reside with Light." Apocalymon said. "You don't follow to your heart's content, and are restricted to the rules. Oh, I guess you won't ever see your families again."

"Don't talk to her that way!" Sora exclaimed. "We'll find another way to get to their families, and to their world, without Dark Powers!"

"Well, why take the hard way out?" Apocalymon said.

"Because..." Kari said, holding her heart. "...Because, if we do come with you, going through dark powers, we'll probably won't care for our families and friends anymore. We'd forget them. Even though they are in the place, darkness can't reach them, they can still be forgotten, and locked up in our hearts by the darkness. I will make sure our world is safe, and any others are free from your wrath."

"Bravo. Great speech." Apocalymon said. "You inspired me. Now if you don't mind, I have plans to go back to. Maybe you can play with this." He disappeared.

"He's gone..." Sora said.

"Our families..." Tai said.

"We'll get them back, Tai." Kari said.

"Oh, so I'm chopped liver?" A voice said, behind the group.

"Look!" Salamon exclaimed.

*ORGANIZATION XIII*

A black-coated person was behind them.

"It's another member of Organization XIII!" Tsunomon exclaimed.

"You know who this guy is, Kari?" Matt said.

"He hasn't shown his face yet." Kari said.

"Really? I'd think you would have this voice memorized." The man said.

"Er, what?" Kari said. The voice is indeed familiar to her.

"The name, is Axel." The man said, revealing himself from the hood, revealing his red hair. "Got it memorized?"

"Er, sure, I guess." Kari said. Then, shook her head. "Wait, Axel?...*Gasp* You...You're...You're, one of Xion's best friends."

"You mean, this guy is her friend?" Tai said.

"Well, it seems you already got it memorized, Xion." Axel said.

"Axel..." Kari said, walking closer to him.

"Kari...What...are you doing?" Tai said.

"Seems you have the spirit of Xion." Axel said. Kari said, nothing, and got closer to Axel. He patted her head. "There, there. It's alright. Xion's feelings are probably taking over you right? Well, glad they are." Kari nodded, and looked down. Then, she looked up, and got slashed back, into Sora's arms! He wielded twin Chakrams, which were summoned within a quick flame on his hands.

"You...! Why did you attack your friend's real self!?" Sora exclaimed.

"Well, I have a mission to eliminate her." Axel said.

"Axel..." Kari said, weakly. She got out of Sora's arms.

"Kari, you can't fight him like this!" Sora exclaimed.

"Let us handle him." Donald said.

"But..." Kari said. Then, she got in front of Axel. "I'm Xion's real self. You'd wouldn't do this, will you?"

"Well, thing is, I barely remember a thing about Xion." Axel said. "Which is ironic for me, because I'm the one who usually wants people to memorize stuff."

"Axel..." Kari said. "Wha...What did they do to you?"

"Nothing. It's just me, and Roxas." Axel said.

"Roxas..." Kari shuttered.

"Another friend you hold, I presume?" Axel said. "Well, maybe you'll see him, before the last moments of your existence!"

*THE 13TH STRUGGLE*

The others were cut off from them, with an invisible barrier. Axel was about to attack Kari, but she guarded, and she slashed back. "BURN!" Axel yelled, sending his Chakrams out, spinning at Kari, with flames, hitting Kari. She recovered, right as she was about to get struck again. Axel threw one of his weapons at Kari, but she guarded, and struck back. Axel threw one of the Chakrams out, but Kari avoided it, but didn't expect the second one, and got hit.

"Why is Kari fighting this guy alone?" Tai said. "She seriously needs our help."

"With her nobody connected to Axel, this must be rough for her." Matt said. The two fighters were pushing on each other. Kari felt the pain tightening in her heart.

"C'mere! I'll make it all better." Axel said.

"Axel...Please, I don't want to fight you." Kari said.

"Well, I'd like to accept that, but, sorry, I have to fight you." Axel said. He sent forward his Chakrams, and hit Kari with a blast of flame from them.

"I'm still trying to get in there." T.K. said, pounding the barrier.

"No." Mickey said. "This is her fight." Kari was still pushing on Axel. Then, a faded image of Xion appeared over Kari.

"Axel..." Xion said.

"Well, the so called, Number XIV shows herself." Axel said.

"You have to remember me." Kari and Xion said at the same time. Technically it was Xion saying it, but Kari had her body partly taken over by Xion, so she said the same things Xion said.

"Sorry. Can't say I memorize it." Axel said. He charged forward, but Kari/Xion dodged the attack, swiftly, and struck back, swiftly as well. "Hah. That's more like it. Well, I'm getting mad." He had flames all around him.

"This doesn't look good." Kari/Xion said. Axel threw out a string of attacks at Kari/Xion, and they were shot back. They recovered, and landed on the ground. "I've got to say, I forgot how tough you were before. So, you might say, I don't memorize somethings."

"Well then, here's a reminder." Axel said, charging at them, while they attacked back. They finished him off. "Oof. Not bad, Xion."

*MUSIC ENDS*

"Well, I guess my time here is done." Axel said.

"Axel!" Kari/Xion exclaimed.

"Next time, I won't show mercy." Axel said. He disappeared through a corridor of darkness.

"Axel..." Kari/Xion said. Xion disappeared back into Kari's heart. The barrier was brought down, and the others got to her.

"Kari..." Tai said.

"Are you alright?" T.K. said.

"Kari...Axel might not be the same, but, under those digital numbers, has to be memories of you, or at least Xion." Sora said.

"But, they're nobodies." Kari said.

"Doesn't mean they couldn't hold some memories inside of them." Sora said. Kari sighed.

"I guess." Kari said. Roxas showed over Sora for a quick second.

"Got it memorized?" Roxas said. Xion appeared over Kari for a quick second too. They both laughed.

"Yeah, you're right." Kari said.

"You sure?" T.K. said.

"I'm sure." Kari replied. "The main thing is, Radiant Gardens is safe."

"Yeah. We won this battle today." Koromon said.

"You mean, this war." Tai said. "Their attempts to take over this world has been foiled!"
