Kingdom Hearts: Apocalypse of the Eternal Gone
Chapter 7: Wonderland Ain't So Wonderful Anymore
By: Tetra-Assassin
It's been 3 years since Sora struck down Ansem forever. However, an ancient prophecy told that all the worlds would no longer be linked when the door is shut. This was not the case, even though Sora shut Kingdom Hearts. Another thing.... According to the Deep Dive ending video, there were 3 Keyblades. Now it appears that 2 more have spawned. Another prophecy, discovered in the Destiny Islands says, "When the Hikari, the Yami, their lovers, and the master of neutrality each wield a Keyblade, only then will the apocalypse of the eternal gone commence."
The gummi ship touched down in the Rabbit's house. "So, we know where to start looking, but how to get there?" questioned Sakaye. "I apologize for my stupidity, but I've been only at Traverse Town for two years."
"We just go through here, and then we're in the castle. Then we take a-"
"Son of a-" replied Riku, as the group prepared to fight.
"That, kids, is a arrow ninja
Battle Start: Sora & Company vs. Arrow Ninja Group
Sora drew the Keyblade, Sak and Fen charged up some magic, Riku pulled out his sword (a normal samurai sword), and Kamona brought out the CHRB (crown-hilt reverse-blade.) The arrow ninja disappeared into the shadows.
Battle End!
(A/N: From this chapter forward, I will guarantee you one good fight per chapter!)
"Wait, where's Kairi?" asked Sora, seeing Kairi nowhere.
"You have got to be kidding me! Sora, you lost her again!" replied Riku, bashing Sora for "losing" Kairi again.
"We tried to find her, but our magic's being blocked. We'll have to search manually. However, we did pick up one thing before our scrying was disconnected: she's still on the planet, in a lab somewhere. It looked like they we're enhancing her for ranged weapons," replied Fen.
"Enhancing her? The last time she was stolen, her heart was gone. Do you honestly expect me to believe you?" snapped Sora, whose sanity was beginning to falter.
"Yes, because a scry does not lie. Now, we have work to do. Let's get moving."
The group then proceeded to Lotus Forest, where they would find the first Heart Core, according to Fen'Ris.
Meanwhile, at the Secret Lab under the Queen's Castle, they were using Kairi as a guinea pig. The experiments were with all sorts of things to enhance ranged weapon power. In Kairi's case, this was with bows and arrows.
"Excellent job, my lord. She is now perfect with bows and arrow-"
He never finished that sentence. He fell over, two arrows in his back. Kairi had gotten out of her restraints, and killed the man who caught her the first time: Yoshikiru Wakunashi. The second man fled after that.
"'Feh," said Kairi, blowing a few errant strands of hair back, which failed. She how had long orange hair, instead of the short black hair that it used to be. And she looked to be a lot older, about say 24. However, she was still 16, it was just the enhancing agent that they put into her. Now if she only knew how to get out...
"Oh, 'fer crying out loud, where could it be?" asked Kamona, complaining for the 75th time that day.
"Shut up, Kamona, it's around here somewhere," said everyone else simultaneously. They were tired of looking and listening to Kamona's complaints.
"You mean this thing?" said Kairi, with a confused look on her face. She then held up a heart-shaped stone that had "1" on the front. It was the first Heart Core.
"KAIRI!" shouted Sora, running to her.
"SORA!" shouted Kairi back, as she went running toward Sora, but then something sprung out from the ground.
"You're kidding me..." muttered Kamona from under her breath. "Sora, take this!" she yelled at Sora, throwing her CHRB toward Sora.
"Why would I need this?" questioned Sora.
"It's an Exoticai. The Keyblade can't hurt it. You can use magic, bows, or swords, but that's it. Let's get RID OF IT!" shouted Kamona as she and the rest of the group charged the Exoticai, ready to destroy them.
Battle Start: SG vs. 7x Exoticai
As the entire group draws their weapons, the Exoticai march to destroy them. The first strike goes to Sora, who kills an Exoticai in 1 hit, but gets clipped by another. Kamona destroys that one. She almost gets killed, but is saved by Kairi with a perfect shot. With 4 left, Riku and Fen'Ris each take one out. Finally, Tetra creates a Tetra-strike, and destroys the last two.
Battle End! Victor: SG!
"Now, let me see that," asked Tetra, wanting to find the truth of the strange crystal before him. "Ahh yes, indeed, this is the first Heart Core!"
"Goody! Now we can move on to the next world. Which is..." said Kairi, who's kinda clueless about the worlds.
"I think its Agrabah," said Sora, also having difficult figuring this one out.
"Well, what are we waiting for? Let's go!" said Riku, always knowing how to bring up the mood of a group.
"But not before this!" said Sora, suddenly pulling Kairi to him, and giving her the best kiss she had ever known.
"O come on you two, we don't have time for this!" said Tetra, noticing that they were not with the group.
"Coming SIR!" replied the two, as they ran to the gummi ship waiting.
