When A New Door Opens A New Story Begins
Chapter 3: The Mysterious Unknown
~~~*~~~
"Who are you?" I asked as soon as the mysterious man appeared. He didn't answer. Instead he walked up to me fading in and out of existence.
For each step he took I fell back one, 'How can he do that? Is he some kind of ghost?' Closer and closer he came towards me, quickening his pace with each step and wouldn't stop. In mere minutes he was nearly on top of me. I gasped and fell backwards as I did he went straight through me but at that moment thousands of images ran through my mind and along with them I could hear voices.
::"Kairi!" "Sora! Where are you?" "Riku! Why are you siding with the Heartless?" "All for one and one for all!" "I will find Kairi." "Keyblade" "I don't need the Keyblade anymore, my heart is my weapon!" "There is no way your getting Kairi's heart." "Sora, I will protect you this time." "Kairi, Thank you." "Give Riku back his heart!" "Promise me that you will come back." "I'll come back to you I promise."::
Once the images and voices faded I landed on the ground, sitting there in a daze for a minute. I regained my senses and turned around to find a solid cloaked man staring down at me thinking about who knows what. I quickly jumped up and turned to him, "I am not going to ask you this again. Who are you?"
The man turned his back to me, "It seems that you are special as well."
I gave him a puzzled look, "Huh? What are you talking about?" I looked down and noticed that in his hand some kind of blue energy was forming. He turned and fired the energy at me. I gasped and quickly dodged it with ease.
The hooded man smirked, "And yet you are still incomplete."
'Incomplete? What in the world is that supposed to mean?' I thought as I got up from dodging that last attack. 'There is no way I can avoid a fight with this guy. But how am I going to defend myself without a weapon?' I looked around the room, searching for something that I could use, but there was nothing. "Figures," I sighed softly to myself. The unknown man took another step forward and fired two more blue energy spheres at me. I jumped back and was able to dodge it but then he came up to me and struck me with a long, red sword. I let out a painful scream and fell back on the stained glass platform next to the picture of the mysterious white Keyblade.
"Is this all that you have to offer me? How pitiful," he said with a smirk. "You have no idea of the true strength of my heart!" I exclaimed and charged at him.
While I charged at him I didn't notice that the platform that we were standing on began to glow, specifically the two Keyblades. One was glowing black while the other was white. The black beam soared into the sky while the white one headed towards me. Just as I was about to punch him, a beam of white light gathered into my hands and I felt a familiar weight being dropped into them. I slashed the object that was in my hand at the hooded man. He let out a cry and jumped back, holding his left shoulder that was beginning to bleed freely. I looked down at my hand to see what I was holding and gasped for what I held was a Keyblade! It was metallic white and gold in color and the hilt had the form of wings that shaped into a heart. The keychain was a white heart shaped like the symbol of Kingdom Hearts that I saw once in a book that was in the library of Hallow Bastion. The hooded man began to laugh, which caused me to look up at him. "So you finally decided to show me your true power Light Keyblade Master!" I cocked an eyebrow at him and thought, 'There's that Light Keyblade Master talk again. What does that mean?' He stood still and drew a second long red sword and smiled, "This is going to be enjoyable."
The hooded man went into an attack stance, as did I. We charged at each other and our blades clashed with a loud clang and we were stuck in that position for a few minutes. Neither one of us showed any sign of weakness. The hooded man decided to break the tie by using the hilt of his second blade to knock me off balance. I would have been a goner if I didn't use my left hand to balance myself. Then I jumped up kicking the man in the chin. He fell backwards but soon recovered and performed a five-step combo attack, injuring my right side severely. I knelt there holding my side and breathing heavily trying to regain my strength. He didn't waste any time for me to recover to attack again but this time he didn't use his swords; instead he held out his hand and red energy began to form. The hooded man smirked and fired it towards me. The only thing I could do was to block it was with the new Keyblade that I now wield. I held up the Keyblade and the energy that was heading into my direction went up against it.
I was being pushed to the ground further as each minute passed. I could only think of one thing to do which was to use the strength of my heart to fight. I only used this once before, when Ansem was possessing Riku, but I am afraid to do again yet it seems that it's the only choice that I have left now. Slowly, I got up despite the pain I felt in my side. I concentrated all of my hearts power into the Keyblade and it started to glow brightly. The hooded man looked at me with fascination and I replied with a simply smirk then letting out a loud cry. I held the blade tightly and raised it and pushed the energy blast back and aimed it at the cloaked man. It went straight to him but he caught the energy with his hand and pushed it back while he clutched his chest with the other hand. The energy soared into the sky and burst apart, it kinda reminded me of fireworks at the island festivals back when we knew nothing of the Heartless and going to other worlds was just a silly little dream.
The man knelt down breathing hard and said, "Truly fascinating. It seems you truly are one of two people who will bring back the balance." "What are you talking about?" I charged at him and leapt into the air, Keyblade held high, but at the zenith of the leap he faded and I went straight through him and landed behind him. I turned to look at him and the hooded man half turned to me, "In your present state you can not possibly understand." I looked at him with curiosity and annoyance in my eyes. 'In my present state?' I thought before he said, "In any case, the time when we can meet again will doubtlessly come soon. Farewell." He vanished and I blinked a few times and realized that I still don't know who he is, "Wait. . .Who are you?" He fades in for a second and vanishes again but I can still hear his voice in my head, "I am. . ." Darkness covered my mind, "A mere shell."
I was brought back into reality and stared at the spot where the cloaked man had been standing. I took another look at the platform again and noticed that the two Keyblade pictures were gone and also the woman in the center was gone too. "What's going on?" I asked, hoping that the voice can answer me but I was met by silence. I began to walk but then the floor started to disappear and I fell into darkness where no light shines.
