Disclaimer: I definitely don't own KH and LoZ. I don't own Laska and Elleinad either. They belong to horsie890. I own some other stuff like Alysia and the Card crystals and such…
A/N: Yes, quite a short chappie but a monumental one in my opinion.
Crystal's POV: The light had calm warmth to it, I liked it. I saw the dark cages holding Alysia and Laska shatter. The Crystal Angel Knights didn't react like I thought they would. Actually, they seemed to be sleeping. Both were floating in midair, eyes closed. Their wings wrapped tightly around them, like they were when I had first seen them. The crystal Blades turned back into their Card Crystal forms and floated through the air. Aier-Tal floated to Alysia and Lat-Reia floated to Laska. I was blinded by more light, except this was white and purple and stronger. When the light subsided, there was Alysia and Laska with their wings unwrapped, but their bodies were crystalline. I gasped.
"This is how it's supposed to be…" Alysia whispered.
"You see," Laska explained, "both Alysia and I were created for a purpose. We were created as weapons and as guardians of Oblivion Kingdom."
Alysia continued, "The Card Crystals also created us for other reasons. My whole body, my flesh and blood, every single cell in my body was created by Aier-Tal."
Then Laska continued, "Same with me from Lat-Reia. We are the Card Crystals in living, breathing forms. We aren't really human."
"We were intended to become one with the Card Crystals again when the time came." Alysia concluded, "And that time is now. So we will help you and stop Blackheart!"
"But doesn't that mean I won't see you guys again?" I asked. The two crystalline knights exchanged sad glances and Laska sighed and answered me.
"Not in this form. When we help you by becoming one with the Crystals, we'll be a part of you."
"Okay then."
There were more lights, even brighter, until there were two little orbs of light, one white and one purple. They floated to me and went inside me. I felt power flooding through me, and I felt myself change. I was encased in a gigantic, reflective crystal ball. When I was finished changing, I could see my reflection on the side of the ball.
I was completely changed! In either hand I held one of the Crystal Blades. My brown hair was longer and white and purple ribbons were braided into it and a white hood was covering some of my head. Well, I had huge sky-blue gauntlets on my arms, long, light lavender shirt with the crystalline chest armor with the emblem of the Crystal Angel Knights, long white silk pants, and white-and-purple boots. On my forehead was a turquoise symbol of a winged crown, just like Alysia and Laska. Around my neck was a chain of crystals and a circular pendant that was a white heart-shape in it. I knew instantly what it was. It was Kairi's heart. This was the cool part: I had wings! One white bird wing and one violet bat wing. I was like Alysia and Laska combined.
The crystal ball shattered, and I was free. The light faded finally and there stood Blackheart.
"Wh-what was that light? Why do I fell stronger? What the hell happened to you?" she asked.
"Let's start this fight over and fight me with all the evil power that you got from that wish," I said. She smiled evilly and suddenly she blazed with black fire. She rose into the air as the flames consumed her body. The flames suddenly disappeared and what was revealed was something totally different.
The closest thing it resembled was to a dragon, but it had many different qualities to it. Its torso was about 80 feet long, I estimated. Its huge tail was even longer than its torso and ended in three, sharp, cruel prong-like appendages. All along its back and tail were shallow ridges. Its whole back was of the darkest of blacks, while its front side was grey. I noticed a really un-dragonly feature: It had skin, not scales. Its arms and legs were heavily muscled and ended in enormous hands or feet. They had five digits with opposable thumbs ending in huge, silver claws each about as long as I was. Its menacing silver teeth were even longer and caked with old, dried blood. In the center of its chest was a large black heart-shape. On its head were huge grey ram's horns and last of all were its large, glowing crimson eyes. In one of its huge clawed hands it held a very large version of the dark sword.
This monster was wingless, but it could still fly. In midair it turned its huge, foul face in my direction.
"You… This can't be what was Autumn…" I gasped.
It spoke in a deep, inhuman voice that made the very earth shake, "That girl was the perfect vessel for me to regain my power and unleash it. Now the Card Crystals are the only nuisance for me to get rid of in order for me to destroy all life."
I flew level to its face and managed to say, "Why would you want to do that? Who are you?"
"You fool!" It roared loudly and I fell back several yards. Its breath smelled of rotting flesh.
"I thought that the Angel of the Crystals would be more intelligent than this! I am Blackheart, true wielder of the Darkblade, maker of nightmares, bringer of doom, and destroyer of the fabled Oblivion Kingdom."
"What?"
"Yes, my previous vessel was of the greatest of thieves and with him I obtained Lat-Reia, The Card Crystal of wishes and darkness. It was just what I needed. I made my vessel to do the wish ceremony for me and I made the wish and destroyed the thief's body. Oblivion Kingdom was destroyed, the Crystal Angel Knights were sealed away, and I was about to destroy Lat-Reia and Aier-Tal. But I couldn't touch them. Later I found that only a resident of Oblivion Kingdom, a Crystal Angel Knight, or a Chosen could even touch one with their own skin. So I scattered them to different worlds as far as they could be from each other.
"Somehow they came together again and a certain Chosen even woke the Crystal Angel Knights. I found Lat-Reia again and I saw an old man named Ansem, who used to be a king of a world. He was casting a dark spell on Lat-Reia. I seized this chance to fuse myself with the dark spell and I entered Lat-Reia and I have been waiting for this moment ever since."
"You still didn't answer my first question, why do you want to destroy all life?"
Blackheart stared at me and growled, "You seem so happy in protecting everything that means something good to you. I learned long ago that caring or loving anything only gets you into bad situations. I ended my first lifetime protecting something I loved. My heart grew angry after I died. Why did I have to die then? I still had many years ahead of me. I saw my living loved ones be so sad for my death. Why sadness? All dangerous acts of protecting someone always eventually bring sadness and ruin. I thought why should there be any sadness if I get rid of the source of it all? Life was the problem. If there wouldn't be life, no one would be there to be sad or angry. I am doing everything I do for a good cause."
"That's so stupid! If you ever loved someone or laughed or even smiled, you'd know that there was a lot more to life than sadness and anger!"
"Love also brings destruction. This world is a wonderful example. People wage insipid wars, pollute the earth, bring life out of balance, destroy other lives, destroy their own lives, all for love, whether it be love of themselves, love of money, love of the suffering of other things, or anything else. I bring destruction with no love in it at all. I bring death to worlds, different dimensions, even dreams. I am the ultimate weapon against love and life, and that is why I am going to kill you, Angel of the Crystals."
I didn't know about this Angel of the Crystals stuff, but I could guess well enough. (A/N: Wow, another unintentional rhyme!) I was the Angel and I was going to kick some major Blackheart butt! We were total opposites fighting against each other, but which would win? My swords were crystallized toothpicks compared to him for his immense size. His whole length was probably almost 200 feet. I was only a meager 5'5"… How could I win against just immense size and blind hate? He rose higher into the air, as did I. He stood like the air was solid and held the Darkblade in a dueling position. I raised my Crystal Blades, poised to attack. The final battle that was about to decide everything was about to begin. Would life or death prevail?
