Battle of Keyblades
"Is it my turn?" Raheem said evilly. Everyone seemed to notice this little change in Raheem, not just Drex. "What's the matter? Cat got your tongue?" Raheem said advancing on Drex. Drex, who was confused at first, started to smile. "So you've finally given in have you?" Raheem charged at Drex and gave it all he's got. Slashing at him here and there. Sora and the others regrouped as they watched Raheem fight Drex. "Somethings wrong." Sora said and everyone looked at him. "What do you mean?" Donald asked. Sora shook his head and watched.
"Raheem's not like this. Look at the way he's fighting. He's fighting like a trapped animal." Sora continued. Everyone turned to watch the fight and noticed what he was talking about. "You're right, Sora. Do you think he…" Riku started but Kairi quickly answered, "No! It can't be. It just can't be! Raheem wouldn't give up his heart for anything. He's got too much pride!" Raheem blocked Drex's attack and back swung his keyblade. "I can see it in you. You're slowly turning. Turning into one of them." Drex said with a smile. He blocked an attack with ease.
"NEVER!" Raheem seemed to yell, sounding more demonic than ever. Sora and the others trembled. Even Drex had gotten shaken up a bit. Raheem began to speak in a voice not of his own. "I'll never be anything like you. I'll make sure of that!" Drex growled a low demonic growl. "We'll see about that!" Both ran at each other and swung their weapons really hard causing static to spark all around them. "What's happening to him?" Riku asked as he and the others backed up. "I don't know…but we've gotta stop them both or they'll destroy everything!"
Sora responded to Riku's question quickly and ran towards the two, keyblade in hand. Everyone held tightly to their weapons and ran after him. "I'll never be like you! NEVER! NEVER! NEVER!" Raheem roared as his keyblade and Drex's sword collided. "Yeah…that's it. You're almost there! Just one more push and you'll fully become one of them!" Drex said as Raheem took a stab at him. Sora and the others jumped infront of Raheem. "Raheem…go rest. We'll take it from here!" Sora said readying himself. "No! He's mine! I'll take care of him!"
"Calm down, Raheem. We're only here to help." Kairi said putting a hand on his shoulder. Raheem shook his head as if slowly starting to come back to his senses. "Kairi? What's happening to me? Ahh!" he slowly kneeled to the floor and dropped his keyblade. "Raheem!" all the friends yelled. Raheem threw his head up and gave a frightening roar. His eyes seemed to turn red and he picked up his now spiky keyblade. "Get away!" He swung his keyblade knocking everyone except Sora and Riku back. Drex watched in amazement with a smile. "Almost there."
Raheem charged at them and started swinging. "Raheem! What are you doing!" Riku yelled blocking the attacks thrown at him. "Yeah! We're not trying to fight you! Cut it out!" Sora joined in. "I…can't…control…it." Raheem said shaking but still attacking his two friends. Drex appeared by Raheem's side and placed a hand on his shoulder, holding him back. "It seems that your friend here has un-aquitted anger. A nice key for turning him into one of us." He released Raheem and Raheem charged at Riku and Sora who blocked all.
Kairi, Donald, and Goofy watched the battle from a distance. "What's going on? Why's he acting like this?" Kairi thought to herself. "We've got to snap him out of it!" Kairi said running towards Drex, ready to swing her keyblade. "You bastard! What did you do to him!" She yelled striking Drex a few times. "Girl…" he blocked her previous attack and grabbed her by the neck. "It's his own choice to become what he is. Sooner or later, he'll realize it." He threw Kairi into the running Donald and Goofy and turned back to watch the fight.
Keyblade against keyblade against keyblade. All three fought as valiantly as they could. Donald and Goofy helped Kairi off the floor. "Guys, we've gotta do something. If we don't..they'll hurt each other." Kairi said. "But what can we do?" Donald asked. "A far away attack should do something." She responded. "A far away attack on Raheem?" Goofy asked and Kairi nodded. She pointed her keyblade at Raheem while Donald and Goofy did the same. "Here goes nothing." Beams of light shot from the keyblade, the scepter, and the shield. "Please work."
Drex saw the beams of light coming towards him and dodged them. "Ha! Missed me, you foolish child!" Drex said. "Wasn't aimin' at you!" Kairi said smirking. Drex turned his head and saw the beams heading straight for Raheem. Sora and Riku saw also and jumped out the way. "Ahhhh!" Raheem yelled as the beams hit him dropping him to the floor. His spiky keyblade went back to a normal keyblade and his red eyes turned back to brown. "NO!" Drex yelled. "My plan…ruined!" Raheem stood up as Sora and Riku ran to see if he was doing ok.
He nodded a yes when he was asked and picked up his keyblade. "And now…so are you!" he yelled and ran at Drex slashing him. Sora and the rest followed up with their own attacks. Drex dropped to the floor and slowly started to disappear. "No…im…possible! How could I be defeated by mere…chil…dren." He said and with that he completely disappeared. Raheem and the others smiled, though all dropped to the floor with exhaustion and relief. "There's gotta be an easier way to doing this." Raheem said as they all gave a big sigh and laughed.
