Chapter 11- Fears Brought to Life
Point of View: Alex
"OOOOWWWW my head." I opened my eyes and realized I no longer was on the gummi ship.
"CLOUD…………AERITH." I shouted.
I looked around to see no sign of life what so ever. This world looked like no one lived here for many many years. There were nonstop hills of knee height grass that seemed to go on forever like a sea. As the wind blew the grass looked like waves as it swayed with the grass.
I began to walk. 'Maybe I might find them here.' I thought to myself.
It seemed like all day I had been walking. I saw what looked to be a building structure in the distance. I picked up my pace.
It was just ruins of an old building. I was beginning to become frustrated.
"HELLO!!!! IS ANYONE OUT THERE? WHERE IN THE HELL IS EVERYONE?" I screamed at the top of my lungs.
'It looks like I will be spending the night here all alone.' I thought.
So I gathered grass and made myself a bed as the sun began to set. I fell asleep just as it was beginning to get dark.
--Dream--j
"No. Please don't kill me." A voice pleaded.
I was staring at a hood figure, which was standing over a woman's body with a pair of swords in both of her hand.
"I don't like beggars." The figure spoke.
I turned my head just at the right moment because the figure had just killed the woman. Blood layed on the ground and the woman's body just disappeared. The figure walked out of the house and into the street. I walked out after whoever it was and stared in discussed for the whole town was on fire and there were dead people lying on the ground everywhere.
"What in heaven's name happened here?" I said to myself.
I walked up to the figure that was standing in the middle of the street. With one swipe I pulled the figure's hood off.
"………What………….it……………can't be…………………………………it's me."
--End Dream--
I awoke and found that I was in the same place that I fell asleep. 'Had I killed all of those people' I thought.
"No I couldn't have." I said starting to cry.
"Don't cry."
"Who said that?"
"I did."
The person stepped out from the cloak of the night and his face was visible.
"Who are you?" I said.
"Don't you remember me, Alex?"
"I'll ask again, who are you?"
"It's me, Matt…"
"I don't know who you are, but get away from me or I will force you." I said while standing and having the keyblade form in my hands.
"It's all right. I won't hurt you Alex." He said while walking towards me. "You don't remember me but I remember you."
"How can I be sure that I used to know you?"
"I knew your father and that he died a few years ago and that your mother died when you were very young. That you were held in Ansem's prison and that you had met Riku there."
"How do you know that about me?" I said while tightening my grip on my keyblade.
"I know everything about your past and I can reveal it to you." He smiled while walking closer to me. "I can unleash your true power and much more. Come with me and I can show you how to control it."
"But I have to find Cloud and Aerith."
"They left you here don't you see it. They don't want you, but I do." He stepped forward.
"That is a lie. It isn't true. They care about me and I know they will come back." I said backing away.
"If they really cared about you then they would be here with you right now."
"They do care about me and I know that they do inside my heart."
"Then why do you cry yourself to bed every night? Is it because you feel so alone and that you don't want to get hurt by getting close anyone? Why do you always have to be by yourself?"
"I'm not by myself all of the time. Get away from me or else." I said.
"So you admit that you are by yourself most of the time. If you don't want to then so be it but if you do you will never be alone again." Matt said. "How can I convince you to come with me?"
"I………I……..can't."
"Would your parents want you to come with me?"
"Yes." I mumbled hoping he would not hear it.
"I can take you see them if you come with me."
"But how?"
"I am afraid I can't tell you, but it is possible to see your parents even if they are dead."
"Alright…I will go if you promise to take me to my parents."
"Deal then."
Matt approached me and stared into my eyes and put his hand to my face. It was like I could not pull away from his gaze. He had the most beautiful eyes that I had ever seen and did not want to turn away.
"Listen to me. Open your heart to the darkness."
A dark black substance surrounded Matt and I. I could feel it crawling closer and closer to my heart. It finally reached my chest and visions flashed into my head. I remembered some of it. Death and fire were passing before my eyes, which were still locked on Matt. Dead people lay everywhere.
I tried to kill the pain
But only brought more
I lay dying
Am I'm pouring crimson regret and betrayal
I'm dying, praying, bleeding, and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved
Am I too lost?
Every second my heart felt like I was losing it and my head was endlessly enduring pain and memories, which I had long forgotten.
"Its alright." He said.
I wanted to speak but I hand no control of my body anymore and I could no longer feel the pain.
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
It was like whatever I tried to do my body did not respond to any of the commands I gave it.
Do you remember me
Lost for so long
Will you be on the other side
Or will you forget me
I'm dying, praying, bleeding, and screaming
Am I too lost to be saved
Am I too lost?
I was staring at my memories trying to figure out what they were about. That is until I say that it was me doing all of those terrible things.
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
My God my tourniquet
Return to me salvation
"Let you inner darkness be set free. Let it over take your body."
I no longer had any sort of control and I could feel the outside of my body changing.
"Think of how they all left you and how they hate you. No one has ever loved you except me. I love you so come with me." Matt whispered into my ear.
My wounds cry for the grave
My soul cries for deliverance
Will I be denied Christ
Tourniquet
My suicide
That was the moment my mind was his. 'Why did they do that to me…I must kill them all…They must all die' I thought.
"How could they do that to me." I said.
"They don't love you. They just wanted to see you get hurt."
He let me go and handed me his hand. I was just about to take it when a force pulled me back.
"No you can't…They love you…Everyone does."
I looked around to find no one else there except for Matt and I.
"What's wrong?" He said.
"I……I can't go……with you……but……I can."
I grabbed my head and fell to the ground. Something was trying to pull me back from him. Matt caught me and held me in his arms. The closer I got to him the more pain rushed to my head and the more my heart hurt.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!!" I screamed at him.
"Listen to me you must fight the pain don't give into it. This will occur at first but it will only last a few minutes." Matt still held me.
"GET AWAY FROM ME!!" I screamed again.
The pain only worsened as he still held me in his arms. The force was putting so much pain on me.
"I CAN'T I JUST CAN'T DO THIS AGAIN!!" I began to cry and then I remembered what had happened to me. "I DON'T WANT TO HURT ANYONE ELSE. NO MORE OF THIS. JUST LET ME GO. I WON'T LET IT HAPPEN." I finally pulled away successfully but landed on the ground. I tried so hard to get up but I had no strength left and I blacked out.
Point of View: Sora
"What the hell is that?" I said to myself.
The light grew brighter and brighter with every second. "Within every darkness there is a light. You must use this to defeat the darkness." A voice said out of nowhere.
"What is it and how can I defeat it?" I screamed.
"When the time comes you will know the right thing to do. All you have to do is believe in the light and that all hearts are pure." The voice faded. The light exploded. (A/N: What could it be?) A keyblade pure white lay in my bloody hands.
"Wow I bet I still am dreaming because then this means I can escape." I said to myself. "Great now I am talking to myself. I am going insane."
The keyblade was pure white with yellow and gold trimming on the bottom with a white orb at the bottom. 'Cool I have a new keyblade' I thought.
"Now to get out of this hell hole."
I fell to the ground and got up. The keyblade seemed to light up and I could finally see where I was going. 'Cool.' I thought.
I soon came upon a room that was light with torches. I followed it down and a door appeared that was slightly open. I peeked through the crack and was shocked to see Ansem and Riku talking. Just talking to one another. 'Why do I have to be tortured and he just gets to talk.' I thought.
"So have you thought about the decision anymore?" Ansem said.
"Yes, but I still refuse to bring her back to you. I love her and you just want her to experiment on." Riku said.
"She is not might to live like you and me. She was trained to kill just like you and that is all. But what I have seen it appears to be that she strongly refuses to come back. You are the only one to persuade her to come back to me because she truly loves you. If you don't some serious things are going to occur that I believe you will not be happy about."
"What things?" Riku replied.
"With the wrong decision you will find out." Ansem said. "Even though she is in her true state right now she is still refusing which is very odd. It may seem that something inside of her is not willing to let her be persuaded by the darkness. But if you tell her it is all right then she will come and her mind will go back to the way it was before. Death awaits her in her future if you don't bring her back to me."
"Whatever. I am not going to let her come back here to where she will chained up all day and night just because you fear that she will kill you."
"I DON'T THINK YOU UNDERSTAND WHAT IS AT STACK HERE RIKU. YOU EITHER BRING HER BACK HERE OR SHE WILL DIE. YOU DON'T SEEM TO NOTICE IT DO YOU. WELL I DO. IT IS THAT EVERYDAY HER HEART GROWS DARKER WITHOUT HER REALIZING IT. WITHOUT HER BEING IN HER TRUE FORM THE MORE IT EATS AWAY AT IT AND THE MORE OUT OF CONTROL SHE WILL GET. SHE WILL DIE IF I DON'T HAVE HER BACK HERE. DO YOU WANT TO LOSE YOUR GIRLFRIEND?" Ansem screamed.
"………………………………………………………………………" Riku looked at the ground to where I could no longer see his eyes. A tear dropped from his face. "Alright I will bring her back Father."
'Did I hear that right?' I thought. 'Riku just called Ansem father. That is too creepy.' So it looks like Alex will die if Riku does not bring her back.
"Since Matt failed I am relying on you to bring her to her complete form."
Riku then got up and was about to walk my way until Ansem said something.
"Wait I am most forgot." Ansem walked over to Riku and placed his hand on his shoulder.
"What are you doing?" Riku said looking down at his Father's hand.
"Just to make sure that you don't go running away again." Ansem then began to brainwash Riku. Ansem did not look away as he looked into Riku's eyes. "You are to kill anyone who interferes and bring Alex back to me whatever the cost maybe even if she is dead. Do you understand?"
"Yes Master." Riku responded back.
Riku walked over to a table that had a black cloak on it and a blindfold and began to put them on.
'Why does he need a blindfold?' I thought. I continued to look his way and noticed that his eyes had gone completely black. "Holy shit." I said to myself.
I quickly ran from the door and tried to find a place to hide. Thank God there was a small hole, which I hid in until Riku walked by. 'I could not believe that Riku was going after Alex and just all of the information about her and her true form. What does that mean?' I thought. Riku walked by and I followed him so that he would lead me to the exit. I slowly crept behind Riku and followed him to an enormous room.
"I thought you were following me." Riku said stopping and turning around. "You wish you hadn't."
"I don't want you to bring Alex here. I heard the whole thing." I said.
"Why must you always interfere where you don't belong? Just like the time with Kairi. You never learn Sora." Riku drew out his two keyblades and charged.
It hit me in the chest and I flew back into the wall. He charged at me again. I rolled out of the way and stood up. I ran to him and tried to knock him off balance but it didn't work. Instead he slashed the keyblade at my chest. The keyblade ripped through my shirt and blood began to pour down. He then kicked my head as I lay helpless and keybladeless on the floor.
"Riku please stop it." I said.
"Why should I? You have always been in my way and I want to get rid of you here and now."
"Think about how you are going to hurt Alex if she finds out that you killed me and how Kairi will feel." I said with the keyblade inches from my throat.
"Fine I will let you live for now but the next time you will be dead." Riku then walked away as I just lay there on the floor.
I slowly picked myself off of the ground and tried to walk over to the other room. Inside there were five gummi ships. I took my pick and crawled into the drivers seat. I set the gummi ship for the closet world.
Four hours later…
I arrived at a town called Twilight Town. I landed the ship and stepped out. It was raining and no one was in site. I felt like collapsing right there in the street but I had to get to a hotel or something. I walked a few meters but then I immediately collapsed on the floor. As I looked up a figure stood above me. It seemed to look like Yuffie but then my vision gave way and I fell unconscious.
Well what did you think? I thought it was an "OK" chapter. So I hope that I could get the next chapter done soon. I am sorry for not posting so soon. I will hope to have the next chapter up by Mid July. So Enjoy J Also please review.
