Chapter 8

Yazoo: So, since Sonicchica and Sonic isn't here, what could we do?

Larxene: 1) is finding Sonicchica, and 2) we have to start the story soon.

Yazoo: Okay then. We can start by searching big brother's world.

Larxene: That's not what I meant. Look, here's the story.

Yazoo: Let's go! (Grabs Larxene)

"I can't believe I ran all the way up these stairs under an hour!" thought Jake, almost passing out on the last step.

"Finally, I hope this door doesn't lead me to more stairs," he said as he open the door. He walks into a room that has a desk and a chair in the middle, on the wall was shelves holding books. "Okay? Is there anybody here?" he said looking around for any sign of anyone. "Yes exactly," said a deep voice behind him. "Ahh! You scare me," Jake said surprise. He looks at the blue robe man with a short grayish beard. He wore a hat that was pointed and had stars and a crescent moon. "I'm sorry young Jake," said the wizard. "That's okay--- Hey! How did you know my name?" ask Jake. "I'm been monitoring you in Twilight Town," said the wizard. "But how…? (Wait a sec..!) That girl huh?" said Jake. "Yes Jake, I did use her to bring you here, but don't worry about her. She'll be okay," said the wizard. "I have a question, who are you? Why did you use her to bring me here?" ask Jake. "I'm the almighty Yen Sid. If I didn't control her right there, you'll be stuck with Seifer in the train," Yen Sid said, "You would need a weapon and some new clothes." "Huh? Oh yeah, I do need some clothes. For some reason, these clothes doesn't fit me that well," said Jake. "Go through that door over there. There are three fairies that will help you with your clothes."

"Hey Leon, are you all right?" said a girl in black clothing. "Yeah, I'm okay Yuffie," said Leon. Yuffie turn around and notice Darlene. "Hello there, I'm Yuffie," said Yuffie with her hand out. "I'm Darlene," Darlene said shaking Yuffie's hand. "Hey, is that you Rikku?" said Yuffie. Rikku was trying to hide behind Darlene. "Yup it's me alright," said Rikku flying toward Yuffie. "You still own me ice cream after the ones you guys stole from me," said Yuffie. "Come on Yuffie, it was just that one time. Besides, the ice cream was really salty," said Rikku. "Um… guys? Should we head inside before the heartless attack us again?" said Leon. "Right," said Yuffie, leading the way. They walk to a door near the corner of another house. "Hey look, here we are!" said Yuffie, cheerfully. She opens the door and a girl dress in a pink dress greeted them. "Hey Leon, hey Yuffie, welcome back," said the girl. "Hey, Leon found a new friend today," said Yuffie cheerfully. "Hello there. What is your name?" she said. "I'm Darlene," said Darlene. "I'm Aerith, nice to meet you," she said, "Hey Rikku, I didn't notice you there." "Yeah, I'm that hard to notice. Anyway, I'll be going now since we found help…" "Not so fast Rikku. Remember our deal?" (Flashback)

I just only need one of you to guide me around this world, and any other worlds.

(Flashback ends)

"I was hoping you would have forgotten that deal," said Rikku nervously. "So you're stuck with me," said Darlene with a smirk. "No fare!" yell Rikku, upset. Near the computer, Yuffie started messing around with it. "Hey Aerith, where's Cid?" ask Yuffie. "He went to the market. I won't around mess with that if I were you," warn Aerith. "What, I was going to play Solitaire. By the way, what was up with Sephiroth? That was totally unlike him to help any of us," said Yuffie. "Darlene did you understand what he meant about Rayka returns?" ask Leon. "No, I actually don't, but that name sounds so familiar to me. I don't know why, though?" said Darlene. Then she started to have some kind of major headache. "Darlene, what's wrong?" ask Rikku. Darlene couldn't answer her back for some reason.

She suddenly sees flashes of events. She saw a great battle against her, no some one else, like her fighting a horrible creature. She, too, transform into a creature. "No. Not me, her. She's the creature. Not me NOT ME!" she yells out, waking up in a bed that was near the corner. "What happen?" said Darlene. "You passed out," said Aerith. "What's up with the not me?" ask Rikku. "I really don't know. Everything went too fast for me to tell what was actually going on," Darlene said. "I came back with the… Oh, she's awake then. I'll save these for later," said an old guy with a long white beard and a bright blue robe. "Okay…" said Darlene. "I need to introduce myself. I'm Merlin the wizard," he said. "I'm Darlene. Cool, you're a real wizard," said Darlene. Darlene was about to get out of bed but Merlin stop her. "You need rest right now," said Merlin. "It's night, let's just call it a day," said Leon. "Yeah, I'm getting tire," said Yuffie. "Me too," said Rikku. "Good night," said Aerith. "Good night," said every else.

"Axel, are you sure you want to do this?" ask the blonde girl. "Yes Namine, I want you to send me to the world where all nobodies and heartless go when they are defeated," said Axel. "I'll make the portal for you, but you must be able to escape or else you'll be trap in there," said Namine. "Don't worry, I'll remember it. Besides, I might be going there anyway," said Axel. "Okay, but you must come back with her," said Namine. "I'll remember it," said Axel. Namine use her power to create the strangest of all portals. It was dark, but yet light somehow shows itself within the portal. "Okay, here I go!" yell Axel, as he jumps in to the portal. The portal gave Axel a quisling feeling. When Axel came through, it was pitch dark. "I don't feel so good, but now is not the time," thought Axel as he stood up, and started walking straight. He walked for a while until he heard some voices up ahead. "Great, no place to hide, what to do?" he thought. Then some type of light appears in front of him, revealing what the world was actually like. "I can't believe it. I'm in some kind of cavern," he thought. He hid in a hole in the wall. It turns out to be Lexaeus and Zexion talking. "I can't believe we have to watch her," said Lexaeus. "Yes, she wasn't completely herself after that fight with Sora," said Zexion. Then he suddenly stops. "What's wrong Zexion?" said Lexaeus. "I thought I sense a familiar darkness," said Zexion. "Shoot, I forget he can sense darkness but most of all, my scent," thought Axel. "It must be some of the heartless running around," said Lexaeus. "It might have been. I can't tell apart the heartless from the nobodies these days now, trap in this world," said Zexion. When they began to leave, Axel came out from his hiding spot. "Thank you Lexaeus!" thought Axel, "now I must find Larxene."

As for Demyx…

"Welcome to Ocean Karaoke!" said a fish announcer to the audience, "today we have ten contestants that will be singing for us, but only five will stay, you choose audience. First up…"

Demyx was swimming around trying to figure out what song to sing. "What to sing?" thought Demyx panicking. He looks at the song list they gave him. The problem is that he is a rocker and they gave him songs like Under the Sea and stuff. "I can't sing this stuff!" said Demyx, aloud. "Why didn't you say so? We must have given you the wrong list. That must be Sebastian's list again. He keeps putting it in for some reason. Anyway, here's the actual list," said a staff member. Demyx look at the songs and saw the one he wanted to sing. "Thanks," Demyx said and he took off to tell the operator of the songs which song he'd be singing.

Yazoo: Nope, she wasn't in big brother's wor…

Me: Yazoo! (Tackles Yazoo down)

Yazoo: Can you ever warn me? (Tries to get Sonicchica off her)

Larxene: Where have you been?

Me: I'll tell you next chapter.
