Kingdom Hiei
Chapter 6: The Heartless
The Gumbee ship approached space. Hiei was finally off that weird planet! With a silent sigh of relief, he looked over to the crew for some questions that needed answering. "Ok, what the hell is going on?" That was always the best way to strike up a conversation.
"Well gosh,….let's see. We're uh trying to find King Mickey, and Sora here's the master of the key blade." Goofy answered, pointing to the large Key Sora held.
"We're also running things called 'the heartless.'" Sora added. "We saw some back on that planet. And we think they kidnapped Alice. "But other than that, I'm looking for my friends, Kyri and Riku. They were both from the world I was on, but then the heartless destroyed it. So now I'm trying to find out where my friends went." Sora stared at the ground the entire time he talked about Kyri and Riku.
"Well that's fine, but why the hell am I involved in this?" Hiei was not about to help them unless he had some benefit. He looked at them with deadly eyes.
Suddenly the ship started to jerk around and started to fall. Sora and Goofy tried to regain control. Donald ran over to Hiei and forced Hiei to smile. Hiei reached for his sword, but then Donald explained. "Youh Idihiot! The Gumbhee Shiph is powhered on Smiles! Soh smile Dahmn Iht! How annoying. So now he had to smile so the ship wouldn't crash? Well what did he care? But he might be able to use it to his advantage…
"Ok, take me to my world or I frown and the ship goes down." Everyone gaped at him.
"But…but…Then you'll die too!" Sora tried to argue. The ship started to jerk again and he was forced to smile.
"No I won't. I have the skill to jump out of this contraption before it crashes. You three obviously don't. So is it death or helping me?" Hiei grinned an evil smile. Somehow, it seemed to power the Gumbee ship too.
"Alright already." Donald yelled while keeping a smile. "Weh'll take you there but first, we have to fihnd it! Thehre are a lot of worlds out there yah know!"
"Fine, until then I'll help you. So let's get started. Land this ship on a planet and we can kill these damn heartless and get off and search for you're King Mickey, Kyri, Riku, and my world."
"Gahuk! Okiedokie. We're landing on this planet now. And by the looks of it, they're lots of girls down there. Gahuk!"
Hiei almost sighed. Onins……
The ship came down near a big temple. They landed it where no one else was so they wouldn't cause too much commotion. Unfortunately, small black creatures greeted them. Sora took out his keyblade and readied for battle. Goofy unsheathed his sword and took out his shield. Donald took out his wand and thought of some spells. Hiei yawned.
The creatures started to attack. Sora and Goofy raised their weapons to attack and Donald started to chant the words of magic. Hiei, on the other hand, sat down and watched his allies.
Sora struck down two with one swing, while Goofy dispatched a few themselves. Donald cast a fireball at a large group and they all disappeared into nothingness. "What are you doing?" Sora called out to Hiei. Come help us!"
"You look like you have things more or less, under control."
Sora didn't have a chance to respond with his anger, for another 3 creatures lunged at him. Then Sora raised his hand and cast a fireball at a group of 4. It seemed like there was no end to them. But their numbers grew short after a few minutes.
Surprisingly, none of the creatures attacked Hiei. But he watched them. Watched their movements, watched them attack, watch them dodge, studied everything about how they fought. Finally, the battle was over. All of them were defeated.
"How doh youh planh toh help us ifh youh wohn't evehn fight the Heartless?"
"I watched them."
"…..Watched thehm….Watched thehm!"
"Yes."
Donald lungd at Hiei, attemping to strangle him, but Sora and Goofy caught both of his arms and held him back.
"Lehme at'ehm! Lehme at'ehm!"
"Hiei sat there quietly in deep thought. "Heartless huh? So they destroy worlds?"
"Ya,…ugh… more or….erk…. less." Sora replied, still holding Donald off.
Then a woman came in. She was wearing clothes that a priest or monk would wear at the temple. Most likely she worked here. After getting a glance at them, she ran off into an ally. Everyone except Hiei, who was too busy thinking, gaped at what happened….After about two minutes, another the same lady came wearing red clothing, a skirt, and a ribbon.
"Watch out evil dooers! I'm Sailor Mars and I'm going to make you guys pay for even thinking about harming the temple!"
Hiei looked up. "Aren't you the same girl who was ten seconds ago?"
"What! How did you…."
"Well we can start by the fact that all you did was change your outfit to that ridiculous…..thing…."
Sailor Mars turned around and took something out. She started to talk to it, then put it away. She turned back around. "Well now, since you found out who I am, I've called in the rest of the sailor scouts! Now you're in for it."
Sora jumped in. "We're not here to cause any trouble. We're um just, looking around the temple. I'm So-"
Donald clamped his mouth to shush him.
"We're loohking fohr the entrhance toh the tehmple. Can youh help us?"
Sailor Mars stared dumbfounded"….A talking duck….?"
Then some more woman arrived. All wearing the same 'tacky' uniforms, but with different colors. "We're the sailor scouts, and we're here to stop you!"
Hiei stared at them for a few moments. Then stood up. He started to walk slowly over to one of them. The one he walked over to had long blond hair with red orbs in her hair, and a tiara. "Yep, you're all weaklings. I could dispatch you all in a second."
"Whhhhhat!" The blond girl called out.
"Hey you have no right to talk about us like that!" another called out.
"Do you want us to beat you all up?"
"What nerve!"
"Let's see you try shorty!" Called out one wearing green.
Hiei walked past the rest of them, and right next to the one who had insulted them. "Do you want to die, Onin?"
"….On..in?"
"I'm not short damn it, I'm just space efficient!" He yelled at her.
He walked past them and everyone stared dumbfounded. Hiei stopped as he turned the corner. He walked back a little. "Hey, you want to kill these 'heartless' things or what?"
Just around the corner were about 100 small heartless creatures, and about 50 other heartless creatures that wore armor.
