Chapter 2: The last battle

With in Kingdom Hearts locked behind the door that would never be opened again resisted Riku- the true Key Blade master- and King Mickey. They had been here four years now. And they had finally found a one-in-a- million chance to escape. But they both knew there was no real escape, no true way out. For how could you escape what has become yourself? Riku thought about this as they made there way back to the door. Were the odds of them getting out worth this risk?

Sighing, Riku looked over at Mickey. The mouse had long since started to turn gray in color and somewhat slower in his fighting. They had to fight every day to live. This last battle would no doubtable be his last...for some reason Riku thought Mickey knew this. A smile crossed his lips at this thought. Yeah, this would be worth it the last showdown. Going out with a bang, at least Riku hoped the 'going out' for him didn't involve his death....

If and when they reached the door; they would have to shatter one of the glass windows. They had 30 seconds to get out of it before it closed back up again. Simple right? Wrong. The Heartless would do what ever it takes to keep them there and once the window was broken it could never be broken again, something to do with the door adapting to danger or so Mickey said.

The door had just been in sight when they were ambushed...

(I'm not where I'm supposed to be)

Backing up quickly Riku swung the Dark Key Blade in a wide arch around him. Heartless were completely surrounding him once again, Mickey had long since been down for the count and it was doubtful he'd be alive by the time Riku could reach him. This was it. This was the last battle. Dark would swallow the light and all hope of escape would vanish like a fleeting dream. Maybe this was all a dream anyways; the only reason to fight was to stay alive and keep the nightmares away....

Riku shuddered at the thought. He hated living like this and hated nightmares even more. Smirking at the thought he slashed as a heartless dove for him. His life was a nightmare! More heartless followed behind the first. Riku was now massacring them, jumping up as a few dozen tried to ambush him, he did an easy back flip onto a near by backed rock then another jump to a somewhat clear spot close to the door. Slashing the few unlucky creatures that were in the way. The heartless followed his every move growing in number and some in size.

(I gotta fight another fight

I gotta fight with all my might)

"Come and get me!" He screamed at them, smiling at his stupidity, now they would be all over him. He wouldn't have time to get through the door... but they didn't even make a move for him. Instead they parted, making way for someone he hated even more than life or the nightmares. Ansum.

The man's silver/white hair flowed down his back like a waterfall, much like Riku's now did. With graceful steps he walked directly in front of Riku, smirking at him. Enraged by this, Riku made a wild slash at him not at all surprised that the blade passed through him like smoke. Ansem was beyond physical attacks, but all the same Riku was not at all far behind.

"Get out of my way." Riku said calmly, tightening his grip on his blade.

Ansem raised a delicate finger and traced it down the side of Riku's face, "And why would I do a thing like that Riku?"

Shuddering at the touch, Riku narrowed his eyes. "I'm leaving." Riku took a determined step forward and passed right through Ansem as if through thin air.

"You can't leave, your trapped here like the rest of us." Materializing in front of the other, Ansem crossed his arms smugly. "There is no way out."

"You're getting in my way Ansem." Again he took a step forward but Ansum choose to be a solid being then, therefore he couldn't pass through him. Leaning forward into the older man as if to kiss him Riku whispered into his ear. "Time to die!"

Before Ansem could react Riku shoved the Dark Key Blade deep into his gut, the very tip of the bloodied blade nicking the glass on the door. With in moments spider web like cracks ran through out the design, and then shattered into a fine dust. Shoving Ansem off his sword, Riku dove into the small opening. Noticing with pleasure the enraged and pain filled face of Ansem as the glass reformed it's self. Separating them forever.

(I'm getting out, so check it out

Ya - you're in my way

So you better watch out)

He did it, he was free!

(You can't take me I'm free!)
