(Throws Sora in the same room as Link after knocking him out) Whew!
Kari: Whew!
Zelda: Whew!
Med: You guys didn't even do anything! Oh well. (takes out a glass full of Pepsi) To kicking boys' asses!
Kari and Zelda: (raise glasses) To kicking boys' asses!
(All take a sip)
Ninja Mage: You're close; it's even better than that! Much better... Yes, cliffhangers are so good. But what's odd is I don't like them much. So I'm giving ya'll something I hate. Whoa, brain freeze. O.o Anyway thanks for the review!
Aisler: Wow, you thought it was funny? Well, I guess I am good at comedy! And sorry, I forgot to mention in Strike's bio that she's a girl. Another thing, she gets embarrassed when someone comes to her rescue (you know, because her father told her to be tough all the time). Very sorry for the confusion! Thanks for reviewin!
Merielle: Yay, new reviewer! Yuffie reminds you of you? Guess I'm going to have to keep these away. (steals all of Merielle's coffee, soda, sugar, chocolate, etc.) (sees death glare from her) Uh oh.
Sora53: Thanks! Like I have said before, if I can't put humor in the story, I try twice as hard to put it in the author notes. Hope you keep reviewing!
Doomboy2000: Oh, okay. I'm updating, I'm updating! Don't give me the Death of Doom! (starts begging for mercy)
Kari: Pathetic, isn't it?
Zelda: Oh yeah.
Masta of Dance Dance Revolutio: None taken. And thanks, I will! I try to keep the chapters lengthy but it seems like I'm failing.
Kinoarashi: You're running out of things to say? Maybe this chapter may help you. And thanks. May the cheesy force be with you, too. (does a peace sign)
The Legend of Kingdom Hearts
Chapter 10 First Real Fight: Skull Face
A body of a man laid in a large pool of blood; it had not stained the floor so it looked recent. Next to the body were beer cans, broken when they made contact on the floor, and a long, red sword. The beer mixed with the blood, making it a brownish color.
The man's body itself wasn't moving. In fact, everything about him seemed normal except for the fact that he was most assuredly dead. He had short blonde hair and was wearing a yellow jacket with a hood. He also had black shorts on with a few buckles. His gloved hands were bruised.
Everyone ran to the body in the middle of the square. "By the goddesses, what happened?" asked Zelda with a disgusted face.
Sora and Link bent down. "Do you think this is the guy?" asked Sora. Link took off one of his gloves and examined it.
"Oh yeah," he said, pointing to the word 'Tidus' written on the inside of the glove. He pocketed the glove.
"Turn the guy over so we can take him back," said Kari. She instantly regretted it the minute they did; she let out a horrific scream.
Tidus's face was screwed up in a face of horror. His mouth was gaping, blood trickled down from it. But that was not what made Kari scream; she was looking at his chest.
There was a large, gaping hole in his chest. It was completely empty, save the blood that was streaming from the edges. His heart was gone.
A few seconds after they turned him over, the body disappeared in thin air.
"Holy shit cakes!" shouted Link.
A sound started surrounding them. All four took out their weapons and stood up, back to back. The ground started shaking under feet.
"W-what's going on?!" Kari said, now with a frightened tone.
Zelda noticed that cracks were being made underneath them. "Everyone, get out!" she shouted to them.
Too late.
The floor erupted beneath them, causing everyone to fall in different directions. They turned to see the floor transforming; it looked like a large case of hardened stone. A roar sounded from inside the case.
It broke open with a large crash. Something large fell out. Sora took a look at the beast and gasped.
It looked more like a large dinosaur that was stripped of everything, leaving its bones behind. It had two particularly sharp one on each of its shoulders. The entire body was about the size of all of them stacked together on each shoulder. The eye sockets were dark with a glowing yellow eye in each. Its large horn on top of its head was crackling with energy. Right underneath was a large, red jewel. In between its rib cage was a large black heart with two swords crossed: the sign of the Heartless. Its three bony tails were flicking from side to side.
The creature reared back and gave another loud roar. Zelda immediately began running to the top of the stairs. "Aim for the joints! Maybe we can put his body into pieces."
The others gave a nod and began to circle the body. Skull became irritated and thrust his hand on the ground. The shockwave came pulsing to them; everyone jumped over but Kari stumbled slightly. This was her first battle, after all.
Sora began drawing its attention with taunts; Link took his chance. He jumped up and thrusted his sword into one of its arms. It got caught on a joint; Skull let out a scream and swiftly threw Link off, leaving the Master Sword intact with the joint.
Link backflipped to soften the landing. Sora leapt up and began combos to the rib cage. It seemed to have no effect, but it drew the creature's attention away from the others. Kari ran to help him.
Link turned around and looked up. "NOW!" he cried.
Zelda took the sign and shot the three Light arrows lodged in her bow. Each made contact; one hit a leg, another hit the other, and the other threw the arm carrying the Master Sword clean off.
The monster screamed in pain yet again as Link grabbed his Master Sword from the ground. Its free hand caught Sora and Kari as they leapt up and threw them into the wall. He suddenly started glowing red; his body parts on the ground did as well. The fallen parts floated up into the air for a second, and then slowly began to return to the main body.
"I'm guessing that won't work," Sora said groggily as he rubbed his head. Kari helped him up. While she did, she noticed how the jewel on its head was glowing brightly.
"Guys," she shouted, "Aim for the jewel!"
"Gotcha!" said Zelda. Her hand started to glow bright red as she muttered a few words. When it was bright enough, she yelled, "Firaga!" and threw the huge blob at Skull.
The monster retaliated by moving its 'free' hand in front of the 'face'. The magic exploded, but when the steam cleared, no scratch was seen. The body parts made contact to their positions and, with a sickening crack, were back together.
"Attacking with magic doesn't affect it!" said Zelda. "We're going to have to blind it first!"
Link was on the job; he was already starting to climb up a tail with great difficulty. The beast noticed and began to thrash its tails about. Link held on for dear life.
"I could use some help here!" he shouted.
Zelda ran down the stairs, fixed another arrow, and started to aim.
"Don't!" Kari interrupted. "You could shoot Link by accident!"
"Who said I'm aiming for the tails?" Zelda said with a sly grin. She aimed higher and let the arrow go. The arrow sliced through the air and pierced one of the eyes. The creature screamed in anger and stopped its rampage. It was now trying to get the annoying thorn out of its now blind eye.
The tails flicked Link off and sent him flying a few feet. He had sustained a few cuts but otherwise was fine. He used his sword to support his weight as he staggered up.
Skull had managed to dig the arrow out and was now very pissed. His eyes started glowing and the entire district seemed to flicker.
"I don't think that's a good sign," Kari said.
In a matter of seconds, the entire district was thrown into darkness. Only the creature's eye, the Heartless sign on its chest, jewel, and horn glowed in the darkness.
Everyone took a stance, ready for the monster's onslaught. But after a few seconds, Link noticed something.
"It's not moving."
The others took notice of this. "But why?" asked Kari.
Zelda thought for a short moment. "It's because it's been drained of all its energy. Regenerating the body parts, turning this place into darkness, everything."
"Then we have to attack now!" said Sora.
"We should wait and see what it does and plan a counter attack," argued Link.
llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
While they debated, they didn't notice that behind them, Skull had regained some of its energy. Turning to its enemies, Skull began charging energy through his horn. Its master told it to kill, and kill it shall. It grinned evilly.
llllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
Kari thought she heard something like thunder above them. She turned upwards and glanced at something that seemed glowing. Realizing what it was, she began shouting. "That thing's attacking us with magic!"The other three stopped and stared. Kari pointed upwards and began fleeing towards the stairs. Rumbling and a large flash of light came from above.
"Everyone, DUCK DOWN!" shouted Link.
Kari, Zelda, and Sora took his advice and laid flat on the floor, hands above their heads.
Kari's POV
I had never been so scared in my life: laying there with my hands over my head, waiting for an impending doom. The second I hit the ground, I saw a flash, even though I had my eyes closed.
Then I heard it. The loudest crash that I had heard of in my entire lifetime. The ground shook with such intensity; I thought the world had ended. Then, just as quickly as it came, it ended. I shivered slightly and picked myself up.
Normal POV
The other began recollecting themselves as well when they heard a voice.
"GODDANM IT! First two start trying to kill me through my chest, then another hangs onto my tail, another blinds my eye, and now I miss my targets!" the harsh voice rang with a growl.
While they listened to the voice curse, the district came into light again. Kari ran back to the group in a rush.
"That thing can talk as well?" she asked with disbelief. "Apparently, yes," answered Zelda.
"We need a plan," Sora said.
Link grinned. "I have one already. Listen..." He began whispering to them.
After hearing the plan, Zelda had her doubts. "Are you sure? Someone could get killed!"
"Just trust me and do what I said."
$$$$$$$$
Everyone was in position. Zelda was well hidden behind a statue. At the front, Link, Sora, and Kari were standing on each others' shoulders; Link on bottom and Kari on top. Skull had its back turned, muttering to itself, so they decided to get its attention.
"Yo, hell boy!" Kari shouted. Skull turned around in irritation.
"Link, what do you think this guy looks like?" Sora asked loudly enough for the monster to hear.
"Not sure," he answered back. "Probably Satan's pathetic excuse for a dog toy." They laughed at the joke. Kari even blew it a raspberry.
"Why you little..." Skull grabbed all three in a bony hand. Their smirks flew off their faces as they struggled to get out. Skull only made the grip tighter.
"This one goes first." It yanked Kari out of his hand and dangled her in the air. She kicked and flailed, even though she knew it was useless. The monster lowered its head until the horn was even with her.
Anytime now," she muttered with a hint of worry.
She looked in horror as the horn began glowing a bright yellow. Link and Sora would've said something, but they were too busy trying to breath.
"Say goodbye, bitch," it said.
Kari grinned suddenly. Skull became confused; its prey had never grinned into the face of death before. It shook its petty thoughts and went back to its prey. It launched an attack.
"STOPGA!"
"Now!"
With a heaving thrust, Kari, Link, and Sora threw their weapons into the jewel. It broke on contact with them with a small crack. The entire body began breaking into smaller shards, from the legs up.
When that was finished, all three hit the ground, their weapons following them not too far behind. As Zelda helped them up, everyone noticed a large, glass-looking heart rise into the air and disappear.
"Goodbye, bitch," Kari said.
Zelda: Dang! Six pages long on Microsoft Word!
Kari: And almost 2000 words! That's long for someone like you, Med.
Med: (nods head) Anyway, sorry if the boss fight was a little crappy. I tried my best to add all the details.
One last question (again): I haven't played OoT in a while, so could anyone remind me what Din's Fire, Naryu's Love, and Farore's Wind do again?
Zelda: And don't for get to-
Kari: Read and Review!
