Drive Fact #1: If you drive into Wisdom Form, take a closer look on his sleeve and you might see the sleeve design of the Master Form. Oops. Somebody must have fallen asleep on the job. XD;
Driving Me Crazy
Chapter Two: The Other Me
Sora's eyes groggily stared at the cheap ceiling fan above him. Who knows how long he had been staring at it. The ceiling fan doesn't really care how long the boy would continue to stare it, so it kept on spinning its merry little wings.
Where am I? He wondered as he lay on a feather soft bed.
He sat up and looked around his surroundings. His jacket and leggings were hung at the front of his bed. The small blue room was bare with little furniture here and there. One the small table next to him lay his large collection of keychains he had acquired during his merry long-ass journey. He scrambled over his bed, reaching for his clothes.
After he had dressed himself, he looked outside the window and saw familiar buildings being drench by the infinite rain.
"I'm still here? But where's the castle?" His eye examined the world outside. The world that never existed. The World that Never Was.
His thoughts were soon interrupted by a muffled yell.
Someone is in trouble!
Summoning his Ultima blade, he stormed out of the blue room, following the source of the voice. Turning sharply around a corner, he skidded into a halt as he saw something he was not supposed to see. Something that should not happen in any shape or form. It was like he got hit by a ton of brick for seeing it anyways.
In a decently large pale yellow room with a couch and a TV stood two of his drive forms. Sora could easily recognize the familiar red color of the Valor form who was partially frozen by his cool blue Wisdom Form.
"Ya know. If I had my Keyblades, I can easily kick your ass to Kingdom Hearts! You and your cheap magic…"
The other Sora snapped. "They are not cheap, Valora. They are resourceful."
Valora struggled to get out of his icy prison, but of no avail. He then glared at the teenager, who was deck out in bright blue and black adorned with blue flames on his sleeves and the bottom of his pants.
"Dammit, Wisora! Get me out!"
"Watch your words or I'm going to have to freeze your mouth shut, too," the other replied coldly, crossing his arms.
Both of them heard a loud thud and they turned their heads at the original Sora, who had dropped his Ultima Weapon with his eyes wide open.
"a…a…a…ii…TWO!" Sora pointed at the two forms of himself. It was just impossible. But there they were, standing right in front of him. He saw his Valor form, clothed in red and black with fiery fleur-de-lis-like symbols on his pants and his sleeves, twisting his right hand inside the ice cage.
"What? The cat's got your tongue?" Valora gave a familiar cocky grin, still frozen in place.
"I-I…two…" The poor Keyblade master passed out on the floor.
Wisora peered over at the boy before his cold blue eyes glared at the slightly frozen statue, which was beginning to thaw.
"You know, Valora. I should have just frozen your mouth shut." He sighed, brushing back his light brown spiky hair.
"Oh, come on! Sora's gonna know anyways." The other replied, rolling his eyes.
"Kuu?" A voice hovered over Sora's face, sniffing it. The voice had a curious, but a primal tone.
"What's he saying?" Another voice, slightly sleepy, but had a hint of concern.
"He said, 'Are you awake yet?'" replied a slightly childish voice.
Sora stirred and opened his blue eyes and stared into the sickening glowing yellow eyes of a creature that looked like a Heartless, but is not.
"Ahhh!" Sora yelped, instinctively kicking the large heartless over his head.
"Ku!" The heartless yelped as it grabbed the edge of a nearby table and nimbly swung its familiar body on top. The corner of its eyes curved inward and the being frowned, fearing the Keyblade master.
"Nyuh…" It gripped the edge of the table, trying to hide its small, swirling black form. The heartless looked at Sora with sad little eyes.
"Aw, Shade…" Sora saw a blur of silver and turquoise clothing as another version of him glided over the floor towards the huddled black mass. This silver one had winged marks on his sleeves as well as his leggings. Small white wings floated just behind his back. A small halo bathed in golden light tethered on the side of his head.
"Did Sora give you a boo-boo, Shade?" The form playfully ruffled the heartless' "spiky" black hair.
"Shade?" Sora looked at the heartless and recognized his own likeness in it. Dark grey symbols decorated where the usual drive symbols were. However, it lacked shoulder armor to reveal the entire symbol, which looked similar to that of a dragon. Its claws, enveloped in swirling black wisps, gripped the edge of the table. The dark form purred delightfully.
"That's the heartless' name, temporarily. We could not get a peep out of that thing beside 'ku', 'whee', 'nyu', and 'mew'. We all thought he was detrimental to the family, but he proved himself quite useful." The familiar fatherly voice spoke behind him. Sora turned and stared faced to face with another Sora, but this time, he was the Master form whom Sora, Donald, and Goofy had fused together earlier against… he couldn't remember.
Sora took another look at the two opposite forms nuzzling each other like a child and a dog. He brought back his attention towards the Master form. Slightly disturbed by the smirking feature of the yellow clad teenager before him, Sora pointed at himself.
"H-How did I wind up as six?" He managed to say.
"We thought you should know." The Master jumped over the couch and sat next to Sora, with his calm blue eyes looking up at the ceiling.
Sora shook his head. "I don't know exactly what happened. All I remember was Donald, Goofy, and I coming into the castle, changed into you, and that's it. And then I woke up and found two of myself. And you know the rest."
"Hmm…well, Shade found you unconscious in the rain and brought you in. Wisora had to mend all the tears in your clothing. It made me curious… what the heck you were doing that causes so many holes? It's like you were trying to outrun a gattling gun…"
The Keyblade master merely shrugged, trying to forget that this whole disaster had happened. He got up and looked outside the window.
"Well, six or one, we should get Kairi and Riku."
"And what about Donald and Goofy?" Master queried, folding his arms.
"Donald and Goofy? Where are they? Do you know where they are?" Sora turned around, looking at the Master form, who was yawning.
"I speculate that something happened that cause us six to realize into the real world and that Donald and Goofy went missing afterwards. So I'm looking for an answer. Sadly, it's not here. So, we're going to leave this world and find it elsewhere."
"So you suggest that I leave Kairi behind in that castle? With Saix?" Sora wasn't happy about leaving her with the Organization XIII.
"Oh no…well…yes," the other sighed as he got up.
"I still think we should get her-!" Sora stopped, as a loud growl interrupted the conversation. He turned his head towards Shade, who looked like he was ready to pounce on something. The Heartless crouched forward with its claws slightly curled, and its eyes shone a sickly yellow color.
Almost instantly, the other two Soras, Wisora and Valora, stumbled into the room, staring at the white Sora and Shade.
"Finora, what's up?" Valora asked uneasily.
Finora paled, "We must leave this building. I think they found us."
Right after he said that, black energy warps appeared in the room. The darkness dispersed, revealing seven graceful Dusks.
Sora summoned his Ultima Weapon. Valora tried to summon his Keyblades as well, until he remembered that he no longer had any Keyblade to wield, because Sora had all the keychains in his pocket.
"Oh shit, we're screwed," Valora muttered.
