The ruins of the once beautiful Castle Oblivion, was slowly being rebuilt back to its normal glory. All though this castle had been abandoned for quite some time, it seems like, however, there were new people who took over the castle for their own. Only a couple of more floors had to be finished before this castle was completely back to normal, if not, even better than the original owner of the castle had it. However, not all of the floors had been the same bright white color as they had been before. Some floors had been... painted with different colors and hues. One floor... had been taken up by one person. Just one. While the rest of the rooms, had been pure white like they had been before. The twelfth floor, the floor on this floor had been checkered with black and white, but on the black tiles, there had been streaks of blue and purple, giving it a lighting type look. The walls, had looked like a wood color, slightly tangy orange as well. The pillars of the room still had been white as before, and so did the doors of the room and the lighting of the room, had given off a thunder like glow. The eleventh floor, had been pained with black, the pillars, a mid-night blue color, the ground had been different shades and hues of blue. The doors of the room, had been a normal shade of blue, maybe a bit darker if that, while the lighting of the room, had a icy glow to it. The tenth floor, the walls had been painted a grayish tone, the pillars, had been black, while the floors had been pure white, as well as the doors of the floor, the lighting of this room, had been of a pale, light blue color. The ninth floor, every thing had been painted black, the walls, floor, pillars the doors... every thing was pure black. However, the lighting of the room was a red type glow, and every thing had been outlined in red and dark purple. And finally, the eighth floor, the walls and floors had been painted black., the pillars, had been painted a dark forest green color, the doors, had also been a forest green color, and the lighting of the room, was of a dark purple, type glow.
No one seemed to be within this castle though. It was completely silent... completely empty of any sighting of life. But suddenly, within the throne type room, a dull, light purple light came from one side of the white walls. A strange girl then suddenly appeared sitting against the wall with her back against the wall. The girls dull, slight dark purple tinted hair was spread out widely around her and some had hung over her shoulders. Her bangs were short at the middle of her forehead but got longer as they extended outward, the end parts went down to the bottom of her neck and curved along with her face. Her dull gray dress had hung right at her shoulders, showing off her skin at the shoulder and collar bone area and the dress appeared to be fairly long, but also torn and tattered greatly. Her shoes looked like they used to be high heeled, but are no longer, a dull purplish color they were as well. In the back of her hair, part of the sides of her hair had been pulled back a bit and were held together there by a large, purplish bow. Her skin, was dull, almost a grayish tone, ashy kind of flesh but it was rather smooth and looked skinner than any average girl. Her face was roundish and her body appeared to be quite curvy. All of her limbs were very small and skinny looking and her chest wasn't very well developed at all. She then started to groan and moan, her voice, light, quiet, and not at all damaged. She slowly started to open her, lavender hue, ruby ringed eyes, but quickly shut them from the brightness of the elegant white room. It took her a while before she was able to open her sorrowful, sad and feminine looking eyes. She groaned again, motioning one of her tiny hands towards her forehead, "Ow... headache..." She muttered to herself before motioning her hand away after rubbing it for a couple of moments. She appeared to be slightly dazed as her eyes trailed around the room, spotting six white thrones, the one farthest away from her had been the tallest one and the one closest to her had been the shortest one. "Where... am I...?" she slowly asked herself.
The doors to the room opened, and the girl didn't even notice it either. Three figures had entered the room, all of them wore black looking cloaks, one had its hood on its head, it was to be seen as two males and one female being had walked in. The cloaked black female had black, dark silvery blue tinted hair, smooth and straight. Her hair had fallen all the way down to the middle of her thighs, while her bangs had spiked upward then downward in her face, falling down just to the bottom of her face. Her skin, ghastly, deadly pale, as if she had never seen sunlight before in her life. Her eyes remained hidden under the shadows of her bangs, but a strange scar was the be seen on the left side of her face, and it stopped at her mid-cheek. Her body had been almost fully developed, and whatnot to give another year or two before it's fully developed; and she appeared to look the same age as the dazed female. The other male who had shown his face, unlike the female, his skin was a fair tone and his green hue eyes had darted towards the female who was sitting against the wall, narrowing slightly at her. His hair was black, short and spiky looking, while, over the right side of his face, his black hair had been long, long enough just to hide the right side of his face from others to see it. Both males appeared to have been taller than the female, if not, then maybe just by several inches. The female and the other male had looked towards the girl who was still staring at the thrones and noticed that she didn't notice them. The hooded figure had smirked under the shadows of his cloak, and then silently, a blade appeared floating about near him. The sword was average length, thin looking with black and blue markings, the rest of the blade had been a dull gray tone. He crossed his arms over his chest, then the sword was sent flying towards the dazed female, placing the tip of it against her throat, making her yelp slightly, but she didn't make any sudden movements that would get the sword to cut her throat. But she slowly turned her head to the three that entered. "Who are you? And how did you get in here?" The male without his hood on had asked, crossing his arms over his chest, his eyes still were narrowed at her. The female started to shake slightly in fear, "I... I am... Masa... yume... a... an... and... I was sealed in here... before this place had came... into existence..." She slowly answered him, stuttering, feeling the tip of the blade against her throat, but felt a bit more pressure was pressed against it, but not enough to break through the skin.
The black haired male blinked twice at the name and the explanation she had given. He looked towards the other male, letting his eye contact tell him to let her go before he looked back at Masayume. The other male glared at the other when he looked away from him again, grumbling silently, the sword that was against Masayume's neck, vanished. The other male walked over to Masayume, but she only curled herself up, afraid of these people. He kneeled down on one knee in front of her, at a slight distance of course. "Masayume... the same Masayume, the Angel of the Forgotten and Dreams?" Masayume simply nodded her head lightly to his question. The other female and hooded male looked at each other, trying to ask each other mentally it had seemed to see if the other knew what he was talking about. They shrugged and looked away from each other and back at the other male and Masayume. "Who... are you and those others...? And how do you know about me?" She asked him. The male before her stood up, extending a hand out to her, "I'm Nexuno, the other two... well they can say their own names. And... I know about you because I have read about you in books." he answered her. Masayume blinked but nodded her head lightly, hesitating a bit before taking Nexuno's hand up to her feet. She wasn't very tall and her hair was long, elegant, almost seemed like it touched the ground. She looked at the other two, waiting for them to speak their names, while she dusted off her torn and tattered dress. "Rinx..." The female answered. "Xey..." The hooded male answered. "Nexuno, Rinx and Xey... Okay..." She muttered to herself, getting their names down. Nexuno looked towards at Rinx and Xey, who both had their arms crossed over their chests. Nexuno smirked a bit and chuckled slightly, "You know you two... Masayume here is stronger than she appears. She can summon any type of weapon she desires and... she can bring forth any area she wants, from our memories, to ones within her dreams." He said to the two. Rinx nodded her head slightly, "I see..." Xey, on the other hand, didn't believe what Nexuno had said about Masayume. "I don't see how she can be strong. Look at her... Her limbs are like bones, they could break and shatter easily. Feh... I doubt she could put up a fight... I bet Rinx could even beat her in a fight." He said in bitter protest, taking off his hood, revealing his rather short bangs going down the side of his forehead, the rest of his hair had been short as well, going right down the back of his neck, slightly spiked down. His hair had been a silvery gray color just like his narrowed, cold looking eyes, his skin however, had been slightly tanned as well. Masayume blinked slightly, frowning a bit when Xey had doubted her ability to fight. Rinx and Nexuno both shot Xey a glare, but Rinx's glare had been more of a death glare. "And what does THAT suppose to mean?" She asked him rather angrily. "It simply means-" Xey had shot Rinx the same death like glare but before he could finish speaking, Nexuno had spoken up. "Rinx! Xey!" Nexuno's voice boomed out, a crack of thunder could be heard after he had spoken up. He sighed deeply, placing the tips of his fingers from one hand against his forehead, seeming to be calming himself. The two, Rinx and Xey, both had quieted, going silent as they looked at Nexuno. Masayume had covered her ears when Rinx and Xey had started to argue and she had jumped slightly at the loud crash of thunder. She then slowly motioned her hands away from her ears when all had fallen silent, looking at Nexuno, blinking slightly, watching him as he slowly motioned his hand away from his forehead.
Nexuno then had regained his calmness and looked at Xey, narrowing his eyes into a glare and saw Xey had glared right back at him. Rinx remained silent, looking back and forth between Nexuno and Xey. Masayume sighed silently, the silence lingered on... not that she minded it. But, she was being doubted, and she didn't wish to be. However, she still needed to know some things and so she finally spoke, soft and quiet like. "I... know this isn't a good time to ask questions... but... why are you all wearing those... outfits? And... I would like to know if there's any thing going on..." She asked aloud, breaking the silence that had seemed to have lasted forever. The three blinked slightly, looking at Masayume when she had spoke, listening to her questions. Nexuno looked towards Rinx, "You know the current situation better than I do, I'm sure you can explain that?" he asked her, seeing Rinx nod her head 'yes'. Nexuno was about to speak to answer Masayume's first question when Xey had spoken before him. "We wear them because a special race called Nobodies wear 'em. At least.. Human Nobodies. We're beings without hearts." Said Xey. Nexuno narrowed his eyes at him before looking back at Masayume, "Yes. As Xey had said. However, there are different kinds of Nobodies. Light Nobodies wear white cloaks. Dark, Neutral and Forgottens, wear black ones. And ones that are in between wear black and white ones or hardly, none at all." He explained. Masayume blinked slightly then nodded her head weakly, "But... which ones are you? All three of you wear black..." "We are the Forgottens. We used to be nonexistences years ago, but we some how ended up here. We're not suppose to exist at all and yet... here we are." Rinx spoke now and answered Masayume. Masayume frowned a bit, nodding her head slightly, "I see... Then.. What about happenings in this... 'new' world?" She asked. "Well... you see... there's this war between the Light Nobodies and the Dark Nobodies happening... And it's all because each side has a different view on how to get their hearts back. The Light Nobodies dislike the way the Dark Nobodies want to get their hearts back, and the Dark Nobodies dislike the fact the Light Nobodies are protecting these special people that are keybladers. However, us Forgottens are not in the war, but we're still seeking out our hearts as well as our lost memories.. Then the Neutrals aren't in the war either unless one side drags them into it." She explained. Masayume had thought about what Rinx said, soaking and absorbing the information. She then nodded her head in understandment before looking at Xey. "Why do you doubt my abilities? Physical appearance shouldn't matter much... right...?" She asked him, she didn't want to be doubted of her strength and abilities, not within this 'new' world to her. Xey glared at her as she had looked at him, "Yes it does. I don't think you can even hold a sword in her hands because your hands or arms would break off." He bluntly answered her, keeping his arms crossed over his chest. "Then how can I prove to you of my strength?" She asked, almost pleadingly. A smirk came curling to Xey's lips and both Rinx and Nexuno looked each other and frowned a bit, both knowing what Xey would have in mind. "A spar... would do... yes... a spar." Xey answered her, the smirk remained on his face. Masayume still frowned but nodded her head, not liking violence, but it was the only way to get her out from being doubted by Xey. Nexuno glared at Xey but then looked away and disgust while Rinx had shaken her head side to side gently, "Words of advice kid... don't let your guard down at all... and.. Be careful." Was all she had said to Masayume. She nodded her head, biting down on her bottom lip slightly as she watched Xey flickered one of his wrists and a strange portal had opened close by. She watched him walk through it and so she followed him through her since he had motioned her with his head to go through the strange blackish portal. It vanished, leaving Rinx and Nexuno in the throne room to wait so both of them had taken the tallest and second tallest thrones, to sit patiently and to talk.
Xey and Masayume, both appeared to what happened to be just outside of Castle Oblivion. The smirk never left his face and the frown never left her face. They both then walked away from each other, but then stopped and turned back around so they were at a good distance between them. Then, appearing in both of Xey's hands, appeared two swords, much like the one that he had summoned before, but only two of them. His smirk widen more as eight more of the same blades appeared behind him, all of them were floating... suspended within the air. Masayume watched as eight swords had been floating within the air. Gravity... She thought to herself, seeing that was probably his element. She then closed her eyes, holding out both of her arms in front of her, her hands were on top of each other, facing away from each other. Than, a dull lavender glow came from her hands and so she opened her eyes, lavender hue had been glowing to a bright silvery purple color while the ruby ring remained within her eyes. The glow from her hands started to move, extending to the ground and extending upward in the air. So far, the glow only appeared to be a long stick, but at the top, it appeared as if blades on both sides started to form. When the glow faded, a weapon was within the grasp of her hands. The blades looked like two large crescent moons facing away from each other while in the middle, sticking up was a sharp point. The blades, however, looked to be a purplish color, maybe hinting of the element within the blade.
Just right after Masayume's blade appeared within the grasp of her hands, the eight floating swords suddenly were sent flying at her. All of them started to attack her at once in a Strike Raid motion. This had caught Masayume a bit off guard, but none of the less, she used the halberd in her hands to block and bat away the swords. But she had gotten cuts and scrapes here and there around her body. Having enough of taking attacks of the Strike Raid of the eight floating swords, she jumped high into the air, then suddenly, medium sized, angelic looking wings unfurled from her back, they were a dull, dark gray color with tints of lavender within the grayness. Xey smirked a bit as the blades were sent flying back towards him, but the stopped just when they were about a foot away from him. He was looking upward towards the angel in the sky, then suddenly, a ring of a white glow came around his pupils. Masayume gasped a bit as she felt the air grow heavy like, and she felt herself slowly going downward towards the ground due to the invisible force. She slowly pointed the tip of the halberd at him, and the tip had started to glow. She sent an energy type blast at him, he saw this coming and so he had two of his floating swords go into a X formation, ready to block this incoming attack, however, it vanished just before it could hit his swords and so this, baffled him a bit. The energy blast attack had appeared behind him and attacked right at his mid back, and so he had taken the attack. Growling slightly, the rings around his pupils went away and Masayume no longer felt the air heavy upon her. He glared back up at her, sending his eight blades at her to attack her at random, watching her defend herself by blocking, pushing away and batting away his swords jumped up in the air, suspending himself within it and pushed himself over to her, since she was distracted, she wouldn't be able to block his frontal assault, and so, he attacked her head on.
She screamed now since the first attack Xey had made towards her had thrown her completely off balance. With that, his eight floating swords and cut her every where, while Xey had flipped about in the air quickly, slashing here and there with the two swords that were in his hands. He then appeared behind her and elbowed her roughly in between her shoulder blades, sending her flying towards the ground, she landed with a loud crash, and so Xey had a wild smirk upon his face. He slowly started to head towards the ground, landing on his feet silently while his swords floated around him. He let go of his swords that were in his hands, but they had remained suspended in the air, just like the other eight. He crossed his arms over his chest, looking at her with that same wild smirk upon his face. "Is that all you got?" She slowly started to get herself up, the halberd vanishing. Now she turned about to face Xey, breathing quite heavily as she bleed quite a bit as well. "No... not even..." She answered him. Then suddenly, appearing floating around her, ten floating swords appeared suspended within the air as well. Much like Xey's, her's were average length, thin, however, her blades were a dull silver color with faded lavender markings. "My element is dreams... I can create any weapon that can have any abilities I so choose. I observe my opponents first to see what their abilities are... so I can use their opposite element against them." She said as she grasped the handle of one sword and sent the other nine at Xey. Xey narrowed his eyes and grasped the handle of one sword, sending the other nine at her own, but he saw all nine of her swords vanish, but they all reappeared attacking him in a Strike Raid motion, disappearing and reappearing in different locations around him. Xey growled a bit as he had gotten cut here and there and pretty much every where. He then jumped away from the circle of which he was being attacked in, flipping over them to come at Masayume. With both of them having equal amount of wounds, they let their nine swords battle one and another while they attacked each other with the one swords in their hands. However, to Xey, this wasn't very difficult, since Masayume lacked physical strength to block very well or attack fast and hard enough. He then called over his swords to try to stab her in different directions, while her nine swords vanished and reappeared in front of his nine swords to block them from attacking her.
Masayume covered herself with her wings, then lashed them outward again, the strong wings blew away her own nine swords away as well as Xey's. He jumped away, his floating swords following him while her swords came back floating about around her. Xey smirked, "Not bad at all... But lets see how you do with more things coming at you." He said in a cold, emotionless and dark tone of voice. That white glowing ring came back to his eyes, he sent all ten of his swords at her as well as many random rocks and pebbles at her at great speeds. Masayume groaned a bit, she was running out of energy to fight against Xey with. She tried her best anyways to slice through the rocks and pebbles while her swords dealt with his own, but that only left one sword to stab through her stomach and so she screamed. Her ten swords vanished as she fell down to the ground on her back, blood pooling out onto the ground. Xey remained having his arms crossed but the white ring glow had departed from his silvery gray eyes. His other nine swords vanished within thin air and he walked over to the fallen Masayume, motioning one hand to the hilt of the sword and pulled it out of her forcefully, before making it vanish. He glared down at her, motioning his arms to cross over his chest again.
He slowly turned his body away from her, slowly taking a few steps forward before turning his head back to look at her. "Do you have the strength to even stand yourself up?" he asked coldly yet emotionlessly at her. She groaned a bit and slowly sat herself up then slowly stood herself up, placing her arms over her bleeding stomach. "Y-yeah..." She weakly said. "Humph. Maybe your not as weak as I thought." He said emotionlessly, shrugging his shoulders and flickered a wrist to open up a portal, walking through it, it didn't close for it waited for Masayume to walk through. She limped over to the portal, slowly stepping through it and once again appeared in the throne room where Rinx and Nexuno had been.
They both looked towards Xey and Masayume and Rinx had jumped down from the throne she was in, landing on her feet with a light thud and her knees bent a bit. She stood up to her full height and walked over to Masayume. "I told you to be careful." She said as she sighed, the pulled some thing out from her pocket. "Here." She said, handing her the unlabeled bottle to her. She took it and opened it, drinking the liquid inside and her wounds healed. Xey on the other hand, had walked over to the third throne seat and jumped upon it, sitting down in it with his arms crossed. "I know..." Masayume had said to Rinx after she had finished drinking the potion bottle. Nexuno looked towards Xey, "So?" "She's not all that bad. But she could still use some work." "I see." Nexuno muttered as he then looked towards the girls. "Masayume." He said, getting her attention. "How about you stay with us? You can take the sixth seat here if you join with us." He said to her. Masayume blinked slightly, then looked at Rinx and saw her nod her head a bit and so she looked back at Nexuno, giving a smile. "Su... Sure... I'd be honored." She said. She watched Rinx walk back over to the second seat to once again sit upon it. And so, she walked over to the very last throne and took a seat upon it... wondering who the other two members were...
