Oh, and that previous chapter was put up as a Happy B-day announcement to one of my best friends!

Kingdom Hearts II: Shadow of Hearts

Chapter 7: Return of the Fury

"These are some types of Zoids you will see on Planet Zi," said Bit leading the gang into the hanger.

"Wow…" said Riku. He had never seen things like this, gigantic robots that resembled animals. There were five in all in the hanger, one was a black fox, another was a dinosaur loaded up with tons of guns, a green pterodactyl, a strange white lion, and a white wolf that resembled the lion.

"That's my Liger Zero," said Bit pointing towards the lion. Riku, Yami, and especially Zeero were surprised when the thing bent down to let Bit pet it. "He's my Zoid, over there is the Shadow Fox, it belongs to Brad. That there, with a ton of guns is Leena's Gun Sniper. The green one in Jamie's Raynos, and that wolf over there…was Doc's new Zoid he bought with the rest of our money…."

"But it was so big and shiny…" said the doctor.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

After everyone from the Blitz team and Outlaw Star crew got acquainted Riku began the long process of explaining the Keyblade. After the hour or so explanation, the gang was amazed about what was going on among the worlds.

"Wow," said Jamie.

"I didn't know things like that happened," said Leena.

"Snore…"

Everyone turned to face Zeero, who was asleep and drooling in his seat. Yami shoved him off the seat and woke the demon up.

"Ow! Hey! I'm awake already!" muttered Zeero rubbing his head.

"So as I was saying I need some help in finding the Keyhole to this world and a way to get around the galaxy so I can seal other Keyholes."

"Why don't you just borrow a Zoid?" asked Brad.

"I don't think that would be so easy," said Doc. "You'll need a special system to get around the barriers set up by the Heartless… I know! When we help repair the Outlaw Star we can examine the data from it's experience and install some sort of system that will allow a Zoid to penetrate the barriers! I'm a genius! Come on Jamie!" The doctor was so excited, before Jamie could even say anything the doc grabbed him by the collar of his shirt and dragged him off into the hanger.

"Hey," said Bit. "Now that you mention it, when me and Liger won the Royal Cup…I think I saw a Keyhole around the Ultrausarus wreck that was the finish line!"

"Really!" exclaimed Riku. "Can you show us where it is?"

"Sure!" said Bit.

"We can all go in the Gustav," suggested Brad. "That way your Liger can show us the way and if you need back up our Zoids will be at our fingertips."

"Alright!" shouted Leena. "I just can't wait to blow those Heartless up! Bam! Bam! Bam! I'll show them why they call me Trigger Happy!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Are we there yet?" asked Zeero.

"No!" answered Yami.

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

"No!"

"Are we there yet?"

" For the last time! No!"

"Alright! Alright! Geez…why are you so grumpy!?

"Hey," said Bit to the Liger. "What's up?! Why are you slowing down… uh, guys? Do old wrecks glow an eerie color when they get old?"

"No, why?" asked Brad.

"I think there's something up ahead. You all better get into your Zoids!"

"Roger!" said Leena. "I can't wait! Boom!"

"We get the point!" said Brad.

"Hey," said Zeero. "What's that?"

A dark dinosaur appeared out of a dark portal, it's eyes glowed in a dark crimson color. On it's chest was the seal of the Heartless.

"Oh no!" cried Leena.

"It's the Berserk Fury!" shouted Brad.

"But, I thought me and Liger took in down!" yelled Bit.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Oh, but you did beat this creature, Bit," said the dark voice inside the dark chapel. "Lucky it gave it's heart, the Zoid Core as you know it, to me. So I resurrected it to become the Heartless Berserk Fury!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Riku! You, Yami, and Zeero have to get into the Ultrasuarus!" ordered Bit.

"But…" stuttered Riku.

"Just go!" yelled Brad from the Shadow Fox.

"We'll take this thing down in a huge bang!" said Leena ready to fire a whole barrage of missiles at the Berserk Fury from her Gun Sniper.

"Alright!" said Riku. "Let's go!"

Riku, Yami, and Zeero quickly rushed into the gigantic wreck while the Blitz Team surrounded the Fury.

"Looks like we meet again," said Bit. The Liger Zero roared in agreement. The Fury brought out both Buster Claws, set out it's leg locks, tail stretched out, and opened it's mouth for the Triple Charged Particle Cannon…

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Do you think they'll be alright back there?" asked Yami as the group stopped to look at the battle below them.

"I'm sure they'll be okay," said Zeero. "Right now, we have to find that Keyhole!"

"I agree," said Riku. "Let's go!"

The three rushed down the twists and turns of the Ultrasuarus, and they began to realize why this Zoid was considered to be the biggest Zoids built.

"Why couldn't the Keyhole be hidden in an attic," moaned Yami.

"No time to complain!" yelped Zeero. "Look! Droid Heartless!"

An army of metal-like Shadow Heartless began to inch their way towards the group. They got into a battle-stance ready to take down the oncoming Heartless.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

"Do you really think you can defeat me, Riku?" asked the 'source of all Heartless'. "I can tell that there is still doubt in your heart, all I have to do is exploit it…"

"Master," asked a cloaked figure. "Should we worry about this boy?"

"No, the only ones we should be worrying about are the Forbidden Three… The Keybearer has already met the strongest of them… But if he indeed succeeds in making it this far… he'll be very useful in my plan!"

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Meanwhile, five minutes have past and there seemed to be no stop to the oncoming onslaught of Heartless.

'Am I really strong enough to save the worlds?' thought Riku as he desperately fought off the oncoming Heartless. 'Maybe I'm not the real Keybearer…' The Keyblades began to fade. 'No! I can't think like that! Sora, King Mickey, Kairi, and a whole universe is counting on me! I can't let them down!'

In the shadows, watching a fight, stood a boy about sixteen years of age. His silver/sapphire eyes watch as Riku and the others struggled against the Heartless. Both of his arms were wrapped tightly with bandages. His hair was pulled back into a thin braid and his bangs covered his eyes partly.

"That's right," he said quietly. "You'd better not let them down." Behind him a door materialized, it was midnight black outlined in silver. It opened and the boy turned and entered into it's darkness. The door slowly closed and disappeared, like it was never there…

Remember this advice, Keybearer. Sometimes to find the light, you must look within the deepest part of the darkness…
