Chapter 36

Gummi route

After a few routine checks they were off in the ship, and Sora was hoping that Xemnas wouldn't get crazy again, because the heartless ships had amassed to defend the void.

Riku and Sora were on both guns trying to minimize the numbers a bit with laser fire, but the ships were multiplying by the second and were more then the two could handle.

They figured it was over when a Hunter-X came out to greet them, Sora remembered the ship well after it gave him a hard time trying to get back to twilight town once, so he readied his gun controls toward the ship as it moved in with a fleet of heartless ships, "This doesn't look good, why can't we have a fleet."

"You know dark just might be done for when we get there." Axel suggested, you guys remember Roxas?"

Saix glanced over, Axel had a point, Roxas was part of the order, "Could that be why Dark almost was pushing us to The Void, or was I the only one that got that from him."

Xemnas looked back surprised a bit, but it made sense seeing that Dark never really tried to actively stop them, it was always Sephiroth that had to stand in his place, "I hate to admit it but we all my be in for one of Dark's tricks once we enter. Watch your backs carefully." he concluded before turning back to the controls and dove the ship in with it's blades ready for battle, "It might get bumpy in a second."

Sora already wanted to be back on the solid ground, but he simply grabbed on tight to endure the crazy flying again.

It wasn't long before ships were everywhere, half getting blown away or sliced in two, Hunter-X was having a heck of a time targeting the manic flier.

Xemnas was using the best skills he gained but the numbers were to much and forced him to back off.

Riku was wonder what he was doing when they turned around to face a swarm of nobody ships directly behind them, "Whoa where did they come from?"

Sora quickly raised a hand, "Calm down, their ours."

The rest looked back at the nobodys noticing not one had moved.

"Roxas, did he summon them?"

Sora shrugged, "Maybe Sephiroth, or Emnex ya think?"

Xemnas sighed, "If they don't attack us I'm fine with it."

But something came crackling on the CB that told them it might not be anyone that they knew.

"Unknown vessel state your name." came over the radio and it didn't sound like anyone they knew.

Xemnas grabbed the mic, "This is Xemnas who are you?"

"Oh, good we found you guys, this is Midnite I'm a friend of Torch Burner she called me to come here and aid you. We require you to land in the nearest world, I'm told that you'll find something there... besides we don't need anything in the way of our guns."

Xemnas groaned but still thanked him and headed down as the ships sped by all around, "They must be a hired fleet but those ships look like they are self employed.

Sora leaned back in his chair, "You mean those really skilled guys that are called in as a last resort?"

"Yes."

"Whoa, so they can handle all those heartless?"

Riku glanced up from his window , "Looks like it. So what world are we going into?"

"The last fighting grounds of the keyblade war." Xemnas sounded somewhat uneasy but he still took her in low for a landing.
