Sora was walking down the street of the busy city when he was suddenly pulled into an alley he was passing and strung up along the wall with metal chains.
"Kinky. Though you may need some stronger chains. And maybe a few more years to be my taste." Sora said, grinning toward a dark corner.
Toph stepped out of the shadow and held a stern expression on her face. "First of all, gross. Secondly, ew. Third, explain what you meant earlier. The way you two were looking at Yuffie as if she had said something she shouldn't have. What are you hiding? And don't bother lying. I can tell when you are."
"Toph, I'm not supposed to say. Isn't it enough to just live your life here with the people you love?" Sora said.
"NO! Every one of my friends is dead. Katara is on the run and I'm not sure I want to even see her anymore after what she did. I just have too many bad memories of my family. Of this entire place. Isn't there somewhere, anywhere else I could go? Please, tell me if there is." Toph said passionately, tearing up.
Sora weighed his options. On one hand he really shouldn't just go around telling people about the World at large. On the other hand, Toph was a very capable fighter. She was sure to be a huge help especially as her powers grew. Sora could see she really did not want to stay here, and with the war now over there was no real need for her type of power anymore. 'Fuck it.'
"Okay Toph. I will tell you the truth, but you can't tell anyone. Deal?"
"Deal."
"Alright. So, each star in the sky is a world…"
Sora explained the World to Toph. How the planets were endless, how some had special properties to them, and his adventures throughout them. From stopping Ansem to stopping Xemnes and finally Xehanort. Toph simply listened in amazement.
"Wow...There are so many things out there. I wish I could see. I bet it's all so terrifyingly beautiful." Toph marvelled. Then something hit her memory. "Wait, you said something about a heart of pure gold, right?"
"Why are you saying that as if you know something about it? You're getting me excited." Sora said in subdued hope.
"Well keep it in your pants. My family has a heirloom, it is said to be a 'heart of pure gold'. It might be worth checking it out to see if that's what you're looking for." Toph said.
"Hell yeah it's worth checking out! Lead the way!" Sora said, breaking out of the chains that held him up and following Toph as she started the short journey.
Iroh wandered the deserts of the fire nation. He had given up weeks ago and found that Aang held true to his promise. Aang had killed everyone from the fire nation except for him. He had run out of tears, and the mark on his forehead only recently stopped burning. So he aimlessly wandered. Knowing no one would welcome him\ he hunted what he could for sustenance, though this was purely out of habit. He did not see the point in going on since there was nothing left. Still, his survival instinct was strong. In the back of his mind he knew that if he could find a White Lotus that he would be safe, and maybe even be able to rebuild. All he knew was if he did not sire a child Fire would be snuffed out of the world for good.
He sighed heavily to himself. 'Maybe that is for the best. We have done nothing but cause pain.'
Having the fight finally leave him, Iroh dropped to his knees and slouched over himself in true defeat. He reflected on his life, and the loss of his son and nephew. He allowed regret to fill him as he cycled through every person he had killed in the name of honor and conquest. He let shame wash over him as he remembered how poorly he treated his wife. He knew he did an about face when he saved the last two dragons, and that he devoted his life to balance after that. But the blood on his hands would never truly wash off.
"You may hope to change the past, but you can not control when your past actions will come to haunt you." he said to himself, as the desert sun beat on his bare back. With his last amount of energy, he sang.
"Leaves from the line,
Falling so slow,
Like tiny fragile shells,
Lapping in the foam,
Little soldier boy,
Comes marching home,
Brave soldier boy,
Come marching home.
These leaves did fall,
Cutting through the breeze,
Rotting deathly on the ground,
Spreading foul disease,
Everything that grew from it's compost,
Grew sick and weak,
But eventually those leaves did die,
And long lived the tree"
Iroh finished his song, and fell on his face into the burning sand. He believed grief was its own weight, and his would drown him.
Sora joined Toph as they broke into her mansion together. They easily avoided every guard and Sora wondered if they were any good at all. He did take his time admiring the grandiose of the mansion. The white marble walls and pillars and golden trimming and rich paintings and carpets all wowed him. Eventually they reached a large steel vault, and Toph opened it with ease, manipulating the gears with her metal bending and unbolting the locks. They entered and saw treasures and trinkets of unquantifiable value. Gold, statues made of metal and gems, opulence Sora had never seen in all his travels. Toph could tell what the things were made of with her seismic sight and was impressed. She examined the large vault room and pointed out something that felt much lighter than everything else in the room.
"Hey, over there. There's something different." she called out to Sora.
Sora followed her directions and came upon a closed box. It was made of pure jade crystal and had golden trim. He picked it up from it's simple stand and opened it. Immediately a small ball of light dashed out of it and headed for Toph, ramming into her right where her heart would be. Poor Toph didn't notice and fell over with a manly grunt as it impacted her chest. She noticed it didn't really hurt, but she could still feel a pressure on her chest. She looked towards Sora and took his offered hand.
"Toph are you okay?" he asked as he pulled her up. "This light came from the box and went right to you."
"I'm fine, it doesn't hurt. Just feels funny." she replied.
"That would be because your lock just found it's key."
Sora and Toph jumped at the new voice, and Sora tensed recognizing it instantly.
"Wonder! Back for more?" Sora said, readying his keyblade.
"Now darling I thought we were past all of that nonsense." Wonder said sweetly, resting her petite form on a priceless scarlet vase.
"You beefed up Azula and have tried to kill us multiple times, that isn't nonsense!" Sora shot back.
"I was just bored! Really, you would think trying to kill you has ever stopped you from being friends with someone." she said annoyed.
That brought Sora up short, as he couldn't deny he has become friends with people that have tried to kill him in the past. What the fuck was wrong with him?
"Anyway, I am here to tell you that you have won! Ding ding ding!" Wonder rocked excitedly.
"Meaning?" Sora asked.
"You've closed the door to darkness in this world, and you have found the first piece of the puzzle. A heart made of pure gold!" Wonder said, pointing to Toph.
Toph had remained quiet, feeling Sora's tension. She spoke up when singled out. "Me? How? My heart pumps blood just like everyone else's."
"It's not literally gold my little nugget, it refers to the quality of light in your heart. Do you think it was by chance those badger moles taught you how to bend the earth bend?" Wonder asked her.
"Wait, how do you know about that?" Toph asked back.
"Let's just say being me has its perks. Nevertheless, you were blessed with a random mutation in this cycle of reincarnation. You took a special quality from her by chance when she introduced your heart into the Cycle, and it is a key piece to beating her once and for all." Wonder explained.
"Who? Kingdom Hearts?" Toph asked.
Wonder looked slightly put off that she knew that much, but a grin from Sora explained it. "Yes, her. The one who stood at creation and didn't blink."
"Well, how do we use it if it's in Toph's heart?" Sora asked.
"The same way you always do things. Go into her heart and shake it until something knocks loose." Wonder said jovially.
"Hey! No one is shaking my heart! Have some finesse." Toph told her.
"I'm joking dirt nips, haha. Besides, Sora doesn't have the skill to dive into your heart." Wonder said.
"While I'm not one to look a gift horse in the mouth, I have to say I have nothing but experience when it comes to people's heart." Sora said.
"Yes, but you always use the connections you have with those people. You can bond and show them your heart. But, you've never dealt with true individuality. You have never encountered a heart so resolute in it's own space of being that it completely rejects connections with others. And that is exactly who Kingdom Hearts is. She saw the bonding of eternity and time and rejected it. She scoffed at the dependence life had with death. And she ignored the desire for connection inherent in everything with a consciousness. A piece of that being's heart resides in Toph" Wonder explained, becoming genuinely passionate about her description.
"I don't get what most of that means, but you sound like you admire her. You've given us information that could bring harm to her, so I'm confused. Do you like her or not?" Toph asked.
"I hate her. She takes what she wants and tramples on the naturally given free will of others. But she inspires endless wonder, and I am forever enthralled by her. She is infinity, in its purest form." Wonder answered.
"So how the hell are we supposed to even touch her? She sounds like a god with a capital 'G'." Toph asked, concerned.
"You can not kill or erase her, you can only make her submit to your will. Make what you want what she wants. To do this you need to convince her. The first piece is the heart of pure gold. It is the embodiment of Value. It is the only thing worth having. To get it, you must develop your skill in diving into a truly independent heart." Wonder said.
"I don't know how. I usually just go with what my heart says and things work out." Sora said.
"I wouldn't exactly call your current situation having 'worked out'. You're down a princess and down on light." Wonder said coldly.
Sora looked down and his thoughts briefly went to Kairi before refocusing. "Will you help me?"
"Oh? You ask for my assistance now? The proud King to be?" Wonder smirked.
"I owe getting this far to you anyway. I know that if you don't help me, I won't have any leads. Please." Sora begged.
"Hmm. Fine. I will at least point you in the right direction. There is a world, far from here of course, that has recently undergone a dramatic and unique transformation. The people of that world have decided to give up their individuality and bond in the primordial husk of creation, Guf. There are two people that are close to regaining their individuality, and by the time you get there it probably would have already happened. The only way to return from Guf is to have a superior sense of self. If you are able to dive into one of these two people's hearts, preferably both really, you will gain the experience you need to dive into Toph and penetrate the heart of gold within her." Wonder conceded.
"Awesome! I owe you so much!" Sora said, happy to be one more step closer to making the World safe for everyone. He would prove Kairi wrong by saving the world, not infecting it with darkness.
"Yes. Yes you do." Wonder said.
She snapped her fingers and the world shifted around her and Sora.
They found themselves on a beach of white sand, surrounded by endless pearl-clear waters. Sora realized he was laying on the warm sand, the sun lazily above them in a clear sky. It was beautiful, even more beautiful than his island.
'Some trees would be nice though.' he thought and as if in response some palm trees sprouted fully grown from the ground a bit behind him.
"Surprised?" Wonder said as she walked up to him.
"Well, I figure this is just another one of your illusions. So not really." Sora said, sitting up and looking at her. When he did, he gasped.
Wonder casually walked up to him and stood, in all her glory. She was different. She was taller, about five foot eight inches. Her skin was a light tan and her eyes were a deep ocean blue. Her hair was long, down to her waist and fiery red in color. It's own weight straightened out the curls so there was a slight waviness to it. Her bust was no more than a C-cup and her waist was tight. Her hips were curvy and toned legs supported the picture of perfection that she was. Trimmed red pubes taunted Sora.
"So, I'll ask again. Surprised?" Wonder asked with a knowing smile.
"What, who...why do you look like that?" Sora asked, struggling against the urging of his heart. 'She looks like-'
"This isn't just a mere illusion, though I'm sure I'll stuff you in plenty of those as time goes on. I pulled you into my heart. I was wondering about what your perfect woman would look like, so I allowed your imagination to shape my form. This is what I got. A bit too red for my taste." She said, sitting on him and straddling him.
"Oh. I guess you do look like her…" Sora said, an aching in his heart now.
"You mean Kairi?" Sora twitched at her name. "It's okay, I know that she is special to you. You must have thought she was pretty hot for your subconscious to make me look like her. I guess just the longer hair was missing? Maybe I'm an older version of her." Wonder thought out loud.
Sora sighed as he hugged her, selfishly pretending he was holding his old love. "So, why are we here? You said I owed you a lot. Are you collecting?" Sora said with a breast covered mouth.
Wonder cooed as Sora held her, returning his embrace with one of her own. "I am. But I want something that will feel good for both of us."
"What, sex?" Sora said, not against that idea at all.
"I am not crass like my mother. I want more than just that. I want you to treat me as you would treat Kairi, if it was her in your lap instead of me right now." Wonder said.
Sora tensed, and thought about her request. "What I feel for Kairi is more than just love. There are ugly emotions as well now."
"Give it to me. I want all of it." Wonder said, dripping with excitement at Sora's words.
"I...I might hurt you, if you really want a real reaction." Sora said, his voice toneless.
"I am much more durable than her, I will not break easily. So? Will you give me your heart for her? Remember all the good times. All the bad times. How she hurt you. Let it fester and lather yourself with it. Then, right when it's ready to explode, unleash it on me unfiltered." Wonder told him.
Sora sat unmoving for a few minutes as he debated going through with it. He didn't want to think about Kairi, but he really needed to keep Wonder happy. Besides, he could use a good release.
Wonder let out a yelp as Sora pushed forward, throwing her back on the sand and pinning her by the throat with his right hand. He gripped her throat tightly enough that she felt her air instantly cut off. With his free hand, he grabbed her right shoulder and popped it out of place. She cried out in pain, and he stood up in front of her at full mask.
"Work it with your hand." he ordered.
When she got on her knees and tried to grip it with her left hand, he kicked her in the chest sending her into the sand painfully.
"No. Your right hand."
She tried to lift her arm but her shoulder sent sharp pain into her. She couldn't physically raise her arm due to the injury.
Sighing in frustration, Sora slapped her causing her lip to bust. He then reached for her hand and grabbed it, forcing it up to grab his waiting manhood. She grit her teeth and shuddered in pain at the forced motion.
"There. Stroke."
She pushed past the pain and tried to stroke. She found she couldn't move her arm at all and was only able to maintain her grip. She rocked her body back and forth slowly, causing her hand to move as well. This achieved the stroking motion she wanted, but also caused a hell of pain as her popped shoulder moved grotesquely under her skin. Sora grinned darkly as his cock pulsed happily in her hand.
After a few moments, he stepped forward breaking her grip and swung his cock with his hips hard slapping her in the face with it and causing a bruise to form on her. When she let out a cry of pain he wasted no time and trusted forward into her mouth, ignoring the teeth that grated against his shaft. He slightly squatted and gripped her hair painfully with his right hand while gripping her dislocated shoulder with his left and proceeded to destroy her throat.
After a few minutes of that he pulled out and a plop of blood followed and dripped down her lips and chin. He spit on her face and pressed her into the sand with his foot on her face. He pressed until he heard her nose snap and felt the crunching of fragmented bones under his heel. Smiling, he got down and hunched over her, gently kissing her and massaging her breasts and ribs.
"I love you so much." he told her.
A flash of darkness crossed his eyes, and his right hand that was resting on Wonder's ribs dug into them. Using his fingertips he pressed onto the floating ribs there and snapped them, causing her to squirm under him and cry out again. He caught her open mouth with his own and forced his tongue in it, brushing it against every corner of her mouth.
Wonder lay twitching from the pain, and Sora was completely excited now. He summoned his keyblade and changed it's form into a long chain of light. He quickly turned her on her stomach and tied her up starting from the neck. He looped it tightly and brought her hands together, bounding them as well. This way if she struggled, the chain would tighten itself and force the arms up more towards the neck. With her shoulder dislocated Sora was sure this was beyond painful. He forced thick sharp spikes to protrude all along the chain, just long enough to prick the skin and rake it if she struggled.
He wasted no time and slammed his full erection into her moist womanhood. It was rough and it was loveless but it was exactly what Wonder wanted.
They went on for hours, and Sora made sure every hole was overflowing with his hateful seed.
Wonder had become numb from pain and blood loss half way through, and made it her focus to just survive the onslaught. Finally, Sora was satisfied. He gave one final body rocking slap on her damaged ass and stood up and stomped on Wonder's neck instantly snapping it. The sun still hung lazily above them, but the sand around Wonder was marked with random streaks of red and off white liquid.
Wonder took a few minutes to regain her bearings, and let her body heal itself. She had blocked her healing to properly experience what Kairi would have, and she knew without a doubt Kairi would have died. Many times over. Regaining enough strength to stand, she did so and walked up to Sora throwing her still dislocated arm around his waist. He flinched at the contact.
"SO. That was, um, wow. That was wow." she said, meaning it.
"I'm sorry…" Sora said, clearly conflicted.
"No honey please, don't be. You gave me exactly what I asked for. I loved every moment of it. But I'll tell you what that would have definitely killed Kairi. I restricted my healing but I'm still durable as hell and I still felt most of that!" Wonder said.
"I didn't think I felt that negatively about her. As soon as I let myself believe you were her I just felt so angry, so betrayed. Everything I did was for her and she just threw me away the second it got difficult. I can't believe her!" Sora said.
"Well, the light has a way of making small issues bigger than they really are." Wonder said.
"But she wasn't just light anymore she gave into the darkness, I saved her with love! She should know darkness is no different than light. I'm still me." he replied.
"Well, it doesn't help that you gave up your light for her-" suddenly, Wonder's words were cut off by an otherworldly pressure gripping her throat. Really, it was painfully gripping her heart. 'What the hell?!'
"Wonder? Are you okay?" Sora asked, noticing her scratching at her throat.
Just as soon as it came, it vanished. 'Okay, so no telling Sora why his moral compass had taken the ultimate nose dive. Fine, bitch.'
"I'm fine, just some cum that went down the wrong pipe. Anyway, we should wrap this up. It's only been a few seconds in the real world. I'm satisfied for now, and I'll leave you alone while you're in this next world. It gives me the creeps anyway. But I'm sure I will get bored, so don't think I won't try to kill you again. If you can't beat me when I come at you, you have no hope of subduing Kingdom Hearts. I do it cause I love you, hehe." Wonder said as she leaned in and kissed him.
As they kissed, she pulled them out of her heart and back into the real world. But before they were completely out, she sent a vision to Sora of Kairi, straddled on Riku's lap and the both of them kissing passionately.
Sora returned to his body furious and it showed on his face. Wonder had left before he came to, knowing she rightly pissed him off.
"Sora? What happened? You just stood there looking like a dumb rock for a few seconds there." Toph said.
Sora composed himself by stuffing his rage into the pit of repression growing in his heart. "I'm fine, sorry. Wonder just wanted to have a...private talk."
"Ooookay. Well, I got the heart of gold in me. So, we are set to go right?" Toph said, excited at the new adventure before them.
"Yeah I guess so. Let's go get Yuffie and Aqua and we can head out." Sora answered easily.
"And just how are we supposed to go anywhere with our ship destroyed?" Aqua asked.
Sora and Toph had rounded up the two women and were staying at a house that was given to them. Lounging about the living room, Aqua brought up that very important question.
"Stop that!" Toph yelled at Yuffie, who had been poking her chest constantly,
"Sorry sorry. I just think it's weird the heart of gold is in your heart." Yuffie said sheepishly.
"Well I don't get it either but it doesn't mean you get to cop free feels." Toph told her.
"Not like there's anything to feel." Yuffie mumbled.
"What!" Toph said, throwing little beads of metal at her.
Yuffie darted around avoiding them and Toph and her began a house wide chase.
Sora rolled his eyes at their nonsense. "Well, at least they are getting along."
"Sora, ship, destroyed." Aqua reminded him.
"Oh yeah. What do you mean? We can just make a corridor to get to Radiant Garden and go from there." Sora said to her.
"The distance is too great, there's no way we could accurately make a portal there." Aqua responded.
"Correction, there's no way you could accurately make a portal there." Sora said with a grin.
Aqua rolled her eyes spectacularly as Sora made a show of opening a portal.
"Ta-da!" Sora gleefully said.
His eyes shot open as Yuffie dashed past him and into the portal trying to escape Toph's feminine fury.
"Give me back my bra dammit!" Toph shouted as she followed where Yuffie went, unknowingly sprinting into the portal since she couldn't see it through the earth.
"Well. There's that." Aqua said, stepping into the portal herself.
Sora now stood alone. He took a moment to reflect on everything that happened in this world. He pulled at his heart, and summoned Azula's heart into the palm of his hand. She fizzled into view in front of him, though she was see-through like a ghost.
"Azula." he said to her.
"What? How am I here? I thought you killed me." she said surprised.
"Aqua's method of eating the heart was crude. She simply tore it apart and absorbed the released light or darkness. I instead absorbed the entire heart, allowing you to survive as part of me." he explained. "I have a great deal more experience with hearts than she does."
"What makes you think I'd want to spend the rest of your life tethered to you like this?!" Azula said furiously.
"You gave up your freedom when you messed with one of my friends. But hey, you'll get to see a bunch of neat stuff." Sora said easily.
"Why did you even bring me out? Just to rub it in?" Azula said, defeated.
"Nah, I don't rub salt into wounds. I just wanted you to get some fresh air before I stuff you for a while." he answered her.
"Why?" she asked, confused.
"Just cause." he shrugged his shoulders.
"Whatever." she said, at a loss of what to say.
"That's the spirit!" Sora happily chirped, as he absorbed her back into himself.
"Welp, on to the next one." he said as he walked into the portal, closing it behind him.
Author's Note
And we are done with Avatar's world. For now. The next world has already been chosen, if you caught it you get a virtual cookie. It'll be hard to write, but I'll do my best to put my own spin on things to keep it from having dry spots. Someone has already given a suggestion for DXD Highschool as the world after this one! If you folks like that idea, let me know or give another suggestion. After I get a few I'll make a poll, and you guys can properly vote on which one you'd like to see after the next. See ya!
