Chaotic Results
As the gummi ship neared the colonies, the party members was debris floating endlessly through space. As they gazed on, they saw that they had been too late for some of the colonies.
"Oh my god." said Quatre. "We didn't make it in time."
"The colony has been completely demolished." added Noin.
"Hey, look!" shouted Goofy. "The fortress."
They looked on as they saw the Aquatic Fortress continue on its way to destruction. Thousands of mobile suits and mobile dolls from Oz continued their valiant effort to destroy the fortress.
"Don't those fools realize that there's no way for them to win against that thing?" said Zechs. It was at that moment an incoming message reached the gummi ship.
"Attention!" the message said. "This is Peacemillion! Please identify yourselves at once!"
"It's Howard." Zechs put the message through. "Howard! Come in! This is Zechs Merquise! Please respond!"
"Zechs! Is that really you! What happened to the Wing Zero!"-
"It's been given to Heero!"-
"I see. What is up with that watery sphere? Going out destroying the colonies."-
"I'll explain it later. Right now, we request permission to board."-
"Permission granted."-
The gummi ship was hauled aboard the Peacemillion. Zechs and the others exited out of the gummi ship, only to be confronted by the sight of two damaged gundams.
"Aren't those?" said Zechs. "Gundams 02 and 05?"
"That's right." replied Howard. "We found them floating in space with severe damage inflicted. We decided to take them aboard and fix them up."
"That means that..." Quatre cried.
"That's right!" said a voice. Quatre looked up to see two familiar faces gazing at them.
"Duo! Wu Fei!" Quatre hovered over to them. "When did you guys get here?"
"Only a short time ago." said Duo. "We were wondering how you were doing? Tell me, what's going on Earth?"
"Didn't you hear?"-
"Hear what?"-
"The Sanc Kingdom has fallen." Zechs uttered.
"What!" said Duo, stunned. "The Sanc Kingdom has fallen? But how!"
"It was originally the Romefeller Foundation that began the attack, but they weren't the ones responsible for destroying the Sanc Kingdom." said Relena.
"The one responsible for destroying the Sanc Kingdom is also responsible for creating that monstrosity of a water ball." added Noin.
"That thing." Wu Fei uttered. "That thing has no weakness. Despite my efforts, they were executed in vain. Nothing I could do could stop that sphere."
"That's because it has no weakness." said Mickey.
"Who are they?" asked Duo.
"They're the one's who know everything about the Aquatic Fortress and who's responsible for its creation." said Quatre.
"Really." said Howard.
"Then perhaps you can begin with why that thing is attacking the colonies." said Wu Fei, angrily.
"I'll tell you." said Mickey. "But it'll be a hard story for you to hear."
Mickey told the situation to the members of Peacemillion. As he progressed with his lecture, the eyes of the two gundam pilots began to grow in fear.
"So that's it?" said Duo. "This guy, Horus, plans to wipe out all of Earth and the colonies."
"All just to expand the influence of the Dark Empire to this world." said Wu Fei. "There is no need for such evil to exist in outer space."
"Howard." said Zechs. "Contact all colonies who may be in possible danger. We need the citizens to evacuate immediately."
"I gotcha." replied Howard.
"Damn that Horus!" said Duo. "He really intends to eliminate all. Whether they be on Earth, or in the colonies!"
"We have to find this man and stop him." Wu Fei uttered.
"Hey!" cried one of the attendants. "There's a shuttle approaching us!"
"Who is it?" asked Zechs.
"I don't know, Sir. But they intend to board us."-
"Let them in. If we need to take in refugees, then we will do so."-
The ship landed on the docking bay. From the opening doors, another face, familiar to the gundam pilots, emerged.
"Trowa!" cried Quatre. He ran to his long lost friend.
"Do I know you?" asked Trowa.
"Trowa?"-
"What brought you here, Trowa?" asked Duo.
"I heard about what was going on." Trowa explained. "I wanted to do my share, but I didn't know who else to turn to. So I turned to Peacemillion because I wanted some questions answered. But now that I'm here, even though I don't know who you guys are, I feel comfortable in a way."
"It's good to see that you're alive, Trowa." Quatre's eyes filled with tears.
"Why did you bother coming?" said Wu Fei. "You have no recollection of who you are, or what you are. What use are you to us?"
"Wu Fei. Shush!" said Duo.
"Because I have someone I want to protect." Trowa explained. "I want to protect her as best I can."
"I believe that's a good enough cause." said Quatre.
"I still say he serves no purpose." said Wu Fei, disgusted. He leaned against the wall and folded his arms in front of him.
"Don't worry about it, Trowa." Quatre placed his hand on his shoulder. "It's alright."
"Thanks." Trowa replied.
"Well, I got the message out!" said Howard. "The other colonies have already sent out a warning to evacuate! But I think you guys better get up here! There's something you gotta hear! Earth and the colonies are broadcasting the situation now!"
The party members rushed to the bridge of Peacemillion to hear what it was that was being broadcast.
"What's going on?" asked Quatre.
"The situation in both Earth and space have gotten worse." said Howard.
"Earth and space have been placed in utter chaos." the news broadcast began. "As we speak all major cities on Earth are being evacuated. Also, colonies A district through D district have been ordered to evacuate immediately. As we speak, both Earth and space have called a joint meeting to see if they can face these watery spheres together. Already all colonies, A-C district have been destroyed. Several have suffered a significant number of casualties. Also, Earth's major cities have been demolished by these water sphere's as well. No one knows who, or what is responsible for the deployment of these so called water fortresses.
"Damn it!" said Zechs. "At this rate, all of Earth and space will be deprived of human life in less than a week.
"As we said before." Mickey explained. "The only way to stop the chaos is if and when Horus is killed. Only then will the Aquatic Fortresses fall."
"What should we do?" asked Trowa.
"You must stay here and stall for time. Donald, Goofy, and myself will descend back to Earth and help our other companions. He turned to Goofy and Donald. "Let's get going."
"Right." replied Donald. The three went back to where the gummi ship was docked.
"Wait!" said Relena. "How do you intend to find Horus?"
"Leave that to us. If I know Riku and Sora, they must've already found the ninja."-
"Good luck." said Zechs. "We'll do what we can here."
Meanwhile, on Earth, Riku and Sora still rode upon the back of their new companion, Zeke. Zeke, having a strong sense of intuition, knew where to find the target.
"I hope Zeke knows where to go." said Sora.
"It seems like he does." added Riku. "Besides, I have this strange feeling that there's someone stalking us. An evil presence."
It was then that a mobile suit flew above their heads.
"Hey!" said Sora. "Isn't that?"
"That's the Wing Zero." Riku replied. "That's the same mobile suit Heero was piloting."
"It's heading towards that castle!" said Sora. "And it looks like Zeke is heading that same way too."
"Are we going the right way?" Zeke only nodded his head and growled softly. "I guess that means yes."
The two key bearers pursued the Wing Zero atop the silver organoid to the castle which lay ahead. Little did they know that the castle which they headed towards was none other than the Romefeller Foundation Headquarters. The facility where Treize Khushrenada had been confined.
Upon reaching their destiny, they saw the Wing Zero standing outside the main gates. Riku and Sora walked to the large doors of the Foundation Headquarters.
"Somewhere in there, Horus is waiting for us." said Sora.
"Well, we have no other choice, but to go in." added Riku. "We have a friend to save. And we won't know Kairi's exact location unless we confiscate the information from Horus. And it's not as if the guy will just hand over what we want if we ask politely."
The two entered the facility, afraid of what they might find. The hallway was they walked down was long and dark. A few statues, grand tapestries, portraits, and suits of armor decorated the long corridor. But still, there was an eerie feeling amidst the silent faces glaring down at the two. A few beams of light from open windows, in certain rooms, illuminated some parts of the hall. To keep themselves concealed from any prying eyes, the two key bearers stayed in the shadows. As they walked down, they heard something rustling around in one of the rooms.
"Something's there." said Sora.
Riku gave the silent sign and told Sora to peek in. Sora peered into the light and saw a figure standing there in dark. Since the curtains were drawn, they could only see a dark silhouette gazing about the room, with his back towards the door. Riku gave Sora the sign to stand on the other side of the door.
They waited as the person began to walk out. They heard the footsteps come nearer and nearer. When the person stepped out of the door, Sora tackled him and pummeled him to the floor. Riku assisted Sora in constraining this intruder. But as they gazed down, they saw a familiar face.
"Heero?" they both said.
"Yeah." said Heero. "It's me. What are you doing here?"
"We'd like to ask you the same thing." Riku replied. "Or do you usually prowl around big empty castles like a cat."
"This castle isn't empty. I was just looking for someone. And if it's not too much trouble. How about getting off me."-
"Sorry about that." said Sora, helping the gundam pilot to his feet. "We thought you were Horus."
"Is that why you guys came?" said Heero, dusting himself off. "You think Horus is here?"
"This is where Zeke took us. And he has that ability to sense energy."-
It was then that they heard someone coming down the corridor. The three looked in the direction to where the sound was coming. Before them, a figure appeared in the darkness.
"Heero Yuy." said the voice. "I see that you have come to see me again."
"Treize?" Heero replied. The figure stepped into the light and sure enough, a tall man with sandy yellow hair and a blue military frock appeared before the three. It was Treize Khushrenada, the former leader of Oz and representative of the Romefeller Foundation. "I had a feeling it was you."
"Have you come to seek council. Perhaps requesting for assistance in some way. Or have you just come to finish the job you started the last time we met." He then gazed upon the two young boys accompanying Heero. "Who are your two companions?"
"I'm Sora." said Sora. "And this is my friend, Riku."
"I'm Treize Khushrenada."-
"And exactly who are you, Treize?" asked Riku.
"I was once the former leader of Oz and former representative of the Romefeller Foundation." Treize began. "I had attempted to further expand the influence of Oz throughout Earth and space. However, Duke Dermail, my successor, found that the use of mobile dolls was advantageous. Mobile dolls by the way are unmanned mobile suits. Much like the ones you saw in battle today, but they are deprived of a human pilot. As a result, they would use these mobile dolls to settle all disputes within the earth sphere. However, I found it unacceptable to eliminate the human factor. In my opinion, the human factor is most important in a battle." Treize walked into the room which Heero had just exited. He opened up the blinds, revealing a beautiful courtyard. He then poured himself a glass of wine. Offering some to the three boys, the trio only declined. He continued with his statement. "Without the will of the person to continue fighting, wars soon lose their meaning. There are many things that push a person to fight. Personal conquest, personal gain, to get a point straight, or even to protect someone which they care for. Without the human factor, if humans only use machines to fight their battles, they lose the sense of what it means to fight. They forget how exhilarating it is to fight, they forget how tragic it is to lose a fellow human being in the midst of battle, and they forget how painful the suffering is when they themselves have been injured. That is why I dismissed myself from being the leader of Oz and representative of Romefeller. That is why I turned in favor of the gundam pilots. Because they had engaged in many battles which ended in defeat, they were able to keep others away from the delusion that war was all victory and glory. To keep the aspect of war's tragedy in perspective for everyone to see allows people to find a more peaceful solution to conclude to."
"Why do you fight?" asked Riku. Treize sipped his wine.
"That's simple. I fight because I find the art of war to be the most noble and most enlightening of human pursuits. There is a sense of civility when engaged in battle. Despite the controversy against waging war, you would realize that many turn to it for a quick and easy solution. In my opinion, I am enthralled by war when it is fought by individuals at an equal level. However, because of the creation of mobile dolls, people are able to confront their enemies without even being present on the battlefield. To me, that is breech of honor and what it means to be a true soldier."
"Well, perhaps your perspective will change from now on. Have you heard about what's been going on lately?"-
"I have heard. About those aquatic fortresses?"-
"What's your opinion on that?"-
"I understand that these things are unmanned weapons of destruction. And whoever is responsible for it does not truly know the meaning of what it means to fight."-
"Well, that isn't very nice!" chuckled a voice. The four gazed to see some a dark figure standing in the doorway. "You think you know all there is to know about war and battle. But in reality, you are only trying to revive dead beliefs and dead traditions. When two warriors confront themselves on the field of battle, there's a chance that one of the two will die. However, if one were to use a machine in his place, it is guaranteed that his opponent will fall. The other doesn't have to be anywhere near the battlefield."
The figure stepped out of the darkness, into the light of the room. Once again, the cloaked man made his second appearance.
"Horus." said Riku.
"Aw, so you already know who I am." Horus replied. "So introductions aren't necessary. And you figured out that I'm also the one responsible for the creation of the Aquatic Fortresses. And the only way to bring them down is to stop me!"
"That's about the size of it." said Sora, drawing his sword from out of the sheath.
"Let's make this quick." added Riku, unsheathing the blade at his side. "You have something we want and we know you won't give it up without a fight."
"How did you guess?" chuckled Horus. He opened the front of his cloak and took out both of his Mantrion blades. Swinging them around, he took his stance defensively. "If we fight, we fight to the death. But it'll be your deaths that will be assured this day."
Sora made the first attack with his sword lunging forth. He struck from the right, but Horus, using his blade as a shield, he evaded the thrust, knocking it out of the way. He then lunged upward towards Sora's gut, but the key bearer saw the attack and twisted his body in such a way, the blade passed harmlessly by him. Swing his blade behind him, he struck again at his target. Horus however, used his blades as a shield to black again. At the same time, shifting his opposite blade into attack mode and attempted to thrust and slash at the boy.
"Man this guy's good." Sora thought to himself. "A lot better than we gave him credit for."
"Unlike the other members of the Cavendish Shinobis," Horus stated while they continued to slash and cut at each other, inflicting no damage yet so far, "I attack indirectly against my enemy. The use of those Aquatic Fortresses are an excellent example. However, when it comes to close hand to hand combat, I can's just find any water in a confined space like this. And water is an element that's so hard to master. That's why, when it comes to scuffles like this, I use my old and trusty Mantrion blades."
"Sora's having a hard time against this guy." Riku thought to himself. "That guy's blades are designed more like police clubs. Because the handle is placed on the side of the blade, he can shift easily from offensive to defensive in the blink of an eye. And because he's armed with two Mantrion blades, he can alternate, leaving no opening. However..."
Riku drew his sword and join the fray. Horus saw as this new opponent came at him. Horus went on the defensive. Fighting off both Riku and Sora at the same time, however, was too much even for him.
"I knew it." Riku continued. "When fighting against a single skilled entity, his attacks seem flawless. But since you and I are both skilled in the use of swords, and since we are attacking him at our own discretion, you can suddenly see hundreds of openings to which he is open to an attack."
"I see what you mean." said Sora. "Now that he's fighting two warriors, of equal status, at the same time, he no longer has that steady rhythm of going from the offensive to the defensive without leaving an opening."
"And now!" Riku thrust with his blade right into Horus. However, the cloak he wore, easily repelled the thrust. Riku stood shocked at the result. Suddenly, Horus lunged forth, his blade suddenly bursting out from behind the opening of his cape.
"Riku!" cried Sora. Riku dodged the strike, but the blade was so swift, it cut a hole in his black overcoat.
"What you said was correct, Riku." chuckled Horus. "When fighting against two warriors of equal status to my own, I begin to show flaws in my technique. In a way, not being able to smoothly go from offensive to defensive, I begin to show openings. But, because of that slight draw back, I had it reinforced with a special cloak. Between the heavy layers of fabric, there is a layer consisting of plates made from Gombrian steel. The strongest metal in the universe. So if there is an opening, the cloak itself makes up for that, hood and all. The reason for that is due to my fear that someone my try to stab me in the back one day. So I took the liberty of having this special cloak made to fill my needs."
"Quite an ingenious maneuver." Treize said, standing on the sidelines. "That man truly has an unique fighting spirit."
"Don't get too enthusiastic about his tactics." said Heero. "Remember, he intends to kill us all for the sake of his own twisted plans."
"Yes. But I can't help admire his ability to anticipate his enemy's objectives and his ability to counter it."-
"So even if we did get passed his blades," Sora thought, "we still couldn't inflict any damage."
"We have to somehow deprive him of a strength." Riku finally realized a further weakness. "I got it! Sora!"
Sora neared Riku, still on his guard.
"What is it, Riku?" he asked.
"I have a plan. You see, we'll..."
Horus could only watch as the two whispered in each other's ear.
"If you have a plan, it won't work!" Horus lunged forth, but Riku and Sora quickly dodged. Sora suddenly took the grappling knife from his side, dodge rolled behind Horus and thrust the blade into the cloth. But the blade did not pierce. Horus swung around and kicked Sora in the face. Sora skidded across the floor and crashed into one of the tables in the room. "Tried to stab my cloak, eh? Well, it won't work! The plates are stitched to closely to ever be snagged onto anything!"
He then turned his attention towards Riku who was attempting a downward slash with his katana. Horus went on the defensive with one blade while ready to thrust with the other. However, Riku concentrated on his weight balance. So when he struck, the defensive blade, using the sword for leverage, he arched his back and swung himself over Horus's head. He landed on his feet behind Horus, but the ninja only swung both swords around him to attempt and strike down Riku.
However, Riku saw that Horus had made a fatal mistake. Using both blades in attack mode, he had made himself completely open. Riku evaded the primary slash attack from the first sword. Knowing Horus would use a thrust attack, he braced himself. Sure enough, the thrust came. Using his katana as a shield, he swayed the thrust attack harmlessly away from him. He then, used the hilt as a wedge. Impacting it with his fist, Riku forced the second blade out of Horus's right hand. Riku did a sudden undersweep kick, knocking Horus off his feet. The ninja fell on his back, but managed to jumped back to his feet within seconds of hitting the floor. But now he had only one weapon in his reach.
"You made a fatal mistake." said Riku. "Using both your blades offensively."
"What difference does it make!" Horus bellowed. "Even if I attacked with both blades offensively, there's no way you could have done what you did."
"That's where you're wrong. Would you like me to tell you why?"-
"No! I wouldn't like you to tell me why!"-
"Well, I'd like to make myself clear anyway. Because you left yourself open, I took that opportunity and knocked the second blade out of your hand. Perhaps you hadn't noticed the peculiar design of those blades. They are designed so one can shift from defensive to offensive without any openings. That's why the handle was constructed on the side. However, because the hilt is on the side of the blade's shaft, this poses a weakness. Though that blade has an unwavering attack and defensive ability on the side opposite the handle, it's the handle side itself that is the most vulnerable. With enough pressure placed on the handle side, the user would eventually lose grip of the weapon. No matter how strong your grip, you can't hold onto something, by a small area, when there's a greater amount of weight causing pressure on the other side. Now of course, you could have used the weaker thrust which is a vertical fist thrust. However, you wanted to inflict maximum damage on me, so you attacked with your stronger thrust, in which you lunge with a horizontal fist. Had it been a weaker thrust, you would have been able to retract back to defensive mode when I attempted to knock the blade out of your hand. However, because you used your stronger attack, the hilt's position on the blade allowed me to add enough pressure, forcing you to lose your grip."
"You are quite observant, Riku." said Horus. "You realized a flaw that I had not even paid attention to. And for that I will commend you. However, I still have one blade left."
"Unfortunately, that particular blade is only best used when paired with another. And as you can see, you've just lost the other Mantrion sword. So your use of only one blade will seem rather awkward. It limits a majority of your movements that would have been otherwise unnoticeable with the use of two."-
"That's alright. One is all I need!" Suddenly, shifting his blade to defensive mode, Horus pressed a little button on the hilt. Just then, the short end of the blade burst out. Attached to a chord, the blade same straight at Riku.
"A hidden counterweight!" said Riku, stunned. He saw the blade attempt to stabbed him in the head. He quickly evaded, but the blade came so close, it cut Riku's cheek. Blood dripped a little from the wound. The counterweight itself lodged itself in the wall. Horus jerked the weight back and the counterweight retracted back into the shaft.
"You see. With the use of the counterweight, I no longer need two blades to win this fight." Horus once again took out the counterweight. "You know, as we speak, hell is probably occurring outside. While we stand here engaged in mortal combat, my eight Aquatic Fortresses are decimating all of Earth and space. So the longer you stall in finishing me off, the more damage will be inflicted on the inhabitance of this miserable little planet."
"He's right." Riku though to himself. "By playing around too long with this guy, many people are dying and suffering. It's best to get this fight over with here and now."
"However..." Horus suddenly threw his counterweight and the chord wrapped around Riku's throat. Horus gave a mighty jerk. "I won't allow you to interfere with my planning. The thought of seeing so many die at my wake gets me just as riled as finishing you off." He attempted to thrust the blade at close range, but Riku managed to grab both the blade and Horus's arm, preventing the ninja from skewering him.
Meanwhile, Sora managed to stagger to his feet. He could see as the death struggle between the ninja and his best friend began to waver.
"Riku." Sora muttered. He grabbed his sword and ran forward to aid his friend. "I'm coming! Hold on!"
But Horus saw Sora coming. He then used Riku as a shield. Sora held back his strike. Horus took his sword and thrust his blade again. Sora evaded the strike and attempted to get himself between Riku and Horus.
"Not so easy when a friend of yours is in my grasp is it!" He further extended the chord and wrapped it around Sora's throat. He bundled the two boys together and tightened his grip on the chords. Riku and Sora began to choke violently as the chords around their throats slowly suffocated them. "Isis was right. You would never survive passed me! Now give way to death! Accept your end!"
Suddenly, a shot rang out and Horus felt something slam him on the back of the head. He tumbled over and landed on top of the two boys. His strangle hold still held, but he turned about to see Treize holding a gun at him.
"I'm not the type to interfere with a duel." he said. "However, I cannot allow a man like you to have your way."
"You shouldn't have interfered, Treize Khushrenada!" shouted Horus. "Now you shall become my next victim. Both you and Heero Yuy!"
"That's not gonna happen!" said Heero, angrily. Pulling his pistol out, both he and Treize aimed well at the ninja.
"Haven't you fools learned by now!" roared Horus. A sudden force of energy blew out, knocking Treize and Heero off their feet. They broke through the large glass windows and landed on the grass in the courtyard. Horus followed them out, Riku and Sora still strangling in the counterweight chord. "You could have avoided death by not interfering and allow me to do as I wish! Bust you have decided to choose the way of pain!" He released both Riku and Sora, who fell to the ground, coughing and gasping. The ninja walked towards Treize and Heero.
"Be on your guard, Heero." said Treize.
"You fools! Displaying an act of futility!"-
"Horus!" shouted Sora. "You forget! Your fight is with us!"
"Ha!" the ninja chuckled. "You two are in no shape to fight me! You can barely stand!"
"That's what you think! Heal!" Sora raised his sword over his head and summoned the curaga spell. Both he and Riku were healed and ready to fight again.
"The curaga spell, eh? Well done. However, the curaga only restores your strength. Wounds are another story." Sora looked to see that the cut on Riku's face was still bleeding. The ninja chuckled. "You didn't realize that the curaga doesn't work on wounds? When you confronted the heartless, the heartless inflicted damage to your heart and soul only. However, the Heartless were incapable of inflicting any damage that caused blood to spill. Curaga was created specifically for battles against the heartless, allowing the soul and spirit of the heart to be fully replenished. Potion has the same effect. However, when it comes to dealing with flesh wounds, the curaga spell is useless."
"He's right." said Riku. "I feel ready to fight, but my wounds haven't healed."
"No matter." Sora added. "As long as we're restored in spirit and strength of heart, there's nothing we can't overcome."
"Then, overcome this!" Horus hollered. From his mouth, a sharp stream of water bellowed out against the key bearers. Riku and Sora saw the spout and dodged the stream. The water struck the side of the building, blowing a hole straight through the other side. "Like that little trick? It's called my Hydration Cannon."
"Your cheap tricks won't work on us!" shouted Riku.
"Cheap trick is it? You'll ever regret saying that!"-
Horus jumped into the air and fired another blast from his Hydration Cannon. Riku dodged rolled. However, as he stood to his feet, he saw as the counterweight, once again deployed, came straight for his heart. Riku could no nothing to dodge this time. It seemed the end.
"Riku!" cried Sora.
Suddenly, from out of the blue a shield struck the counterweight off its course. The counterweight and the shield landed harmlessly on the ground.
"What the..." said Riku, curiously.
"Damn." Horus grumbled. "Reinforcements."
"Hey!" cried a voice from above. Riku and Sora gazed into the sky to see Mickey, Donald, and Goofy coming down.
"I hope we didn't come too late." said Goofy.
"Boy, are we glad to see you guys." Sora sighed with relief.
"Your path ends here, Horus!" Mickey stated. "The word is out! Earth and Space have joined forces and are now harboring refugees! Many populated areas have been evacuated successfully! So casualties have been limited to a minimum!"
"How long do you think it'll be before my Aquatic Fortresses reach these people who have safely escaped their destructive power?" said Horus. "It's only a matter of time before those people run out of places to go! And when that happens, my Aquatic fortresses will do away them all! Every man, woman, and child!"
"That is why we have no choice but to defeat you!" shouted Riku. "Unless we do that, everyone in this world will not be safe from your tyrannical rule!"
"You've caused me more trouble that your worth! This time, I will not hold back! If you're so interested in stopping the Aquatic Fortresses, you can start with this!"-
Horus began to concentrate all his energy into one spot. Soon water droplets, leftover from his previous attacks, began to gather in the center of the vortex he was creating. Every drop gathered, forming a perfect sphere of water.
"Oh no!" said Donald.
"He made an Aquatic Fortress." added Mickey.
"Now you will witness the power of the aquatic fortress first hand!" chuckled Horus. "Destroy them!"
The ball of water went springing into action, firing powerful spouts and random energy beams at the members of the KH group. A series of explosions occurred as each beam and spout made impact with the ground and the surrounding structures.
"He really intends to finish us off this time." said Sora.
"Then, we'll just have to turn up our attack power as well." added Riku. "Let's see how he enjoys a few attacks which were once part of his comrade's arsenal."
