Kingdom Come 8
"Neo Shadows." Sora said, specifying which Heartless they were facing.
"I thought you said we were fighting this Burning Legion, not Heartless." Inuyasha said.
"They're still bad news." Sora said. "Just as bad as the Legion."
"Then we'll wipe them out." Inuyasha said.
The Heartless filled the room. How no one else had noticed, no one knew. But it was up to them. They attacked. Sora swiped at them with his Keyblade. Two were destroyed. He tapped into his magic reserve, summoning power to his Keyblade. Several more were destroyed. Diamond spear chards flew from Inuyasha's Tessaiga. They plowed into and through the Heartless, tearing them to shreds. Luke moved skillfully and with much agility through the Heartless. Where his lightsaber descended, Heartless ceased to exist.
Sid had just stood exactly where he was, as the others fought around him. He was a planeswalker, and he had near limitless power at his control. And he was about to show the Heartless just what kind of power he controlled. He spoke arcane words, from a forbidden teaching he was only supposed to use in an extreme situation. This wasn't one of those situations, be he needed to finish this and soon.
He finished speaking the words. A bright aura surrounded him. His muscles tightened as the aura spread forward. It was a near blinding light. Where it touched, Heartless vanished. The light spread out throughout the room, though had no averse affect on Luke, Sora, or Inuyasha. The only target was the Heartless. Once the light reached the boundaries of the room, it began to recede. It disappeared as the aura around Sid dissipated as well.
"Good work old man." Inuyasha said as he sheathed his sword.
"We must leave this place, immediately." Sid said. "We have stopped the Heartless for now, but they will be back. And in greater numbers."
"If more are coming, shouldn't we stay and fight them?" Luke asked.
"Ordinarily yes," Sid said. 'But we have more problems now since they have arrived. There is no reason for the Heartless to have appeared. This world should still be sealed away from the Heartless."
"Wait, 'this world'?" Luke said confused.
Sid sighed. "I said too much. No matter now. I've been trying to be careful, but it appears I had a lapse in judgement. In this galaxy, there are many worlds. But what you don't know, though Sora does, is that there are many worlds outside of this one, each protected by a special barrier which prevents Heartless from invading. You world is special, because it is many worlds in one huge one. Where I come from, the worlds exist in their own separate universe. Not only is that universe protected from other universes, but each world, or planes which we call our worlds, are separated from each other. But if any barriers are broken, no matter what the situation, other beings from other worlds can invade, which is exactly what the Heartless are doing. And, in a similar manner, what the Legion does as well. But what I do not understand is how the world border has been dropped. This will take some time to discover. But we must now be off."
"I never knew all that existed," Luke said in awe. "There is so much I don't know. So much that I might never understand."
"It is not yet time to worry about all of that," Sid said. "We must be off. Prepare yourself Master Jedi, for we are about to travel across worlds. Hold on to me." In size, Sid seemed to grow a half a foot taller, as if to allow more room for them to hold on to him. They grabbed parts of his clothes, and they vanished.
They traveled through the Blind Eternities once more. Countless worlds went by, though all were unperceivable, save to Sid. And there he saw the world he wanted. He went towards it and entered it with a thought.
And saw the strangest hey had ever seen, save Sid.
They stood in what looked like an immense ball room. Chandeliers were in the ceiling high above, casting light down below,and music played, though they could not see the source of it. By the look of the room, it looked like it hadnot been used ina long time. Except for the few beings currently in the room.
A suit of armor lay on floor opposite them. A purplish light emerged from it, constantly glowing. It seemed empty at first, then, it moved its head. Below it, was a circle withsymbols drawn on the ground. Standing a few feet away from the living armor, was a few more figures. Two were woman. One wore a white dress, and held a baby in her arms. The other was dressed a bit more decoratively, with short hair. She stared daggers at the new comers.
A slobbering, hunched, obese figure stood right next to the second woman, smiling wickedly but staring blankly at them. Another slim figure dressed in black stood nearby, with long and spiky hair, looking a little worn out. He stared daggers at them. Next to him, looking equally worn out was a young boy. He had long yellow hair and was wearing a black shirt. It looked like he had been fighting the slim figure.
Sora didn't know what was going on here, but he knew it was bad.
"Gluttony, devour them." The first woman with short hair said. The slobbering figure ran at them, drooling as it came at them. Like the slim figure, it too was wearing black.
"Where were we?" The slim figure said as he attacked the young boy. They continued to exchange blows.
"I do not know who you are, but you will not leave this place alive." The short haired woman said. As the slobbering creature approached, Inuyasha drew his sword and unleashed his Adamant Barrage, sending hundreds of spear shards at the creature, They hit it and sent it flying back.
Luke ran toward the young boy to help him. He raised his hand and pushed, using a Force push. The slim figure with very long hair went flying back.
"You fools." The short haired woman said. "You will die."
The ground shook. A firey rift appeared, and opened. It was a portal. Everyone stopped fighting. Sora gulped as he saw the creature step out of the portal.
It was a tall figure, well over eight feet tall. He, the figure, had stone like face and body and glowing green eyes. Power pulsated from it, which only Sid saw and Luke felt.. But as the figure stepped through the portal, Sid knew they were in trouble.
For through the portal had come one of the leaders of the Burning Legion. One Sid had feared he would never have to see.
Archimonde, of the Burning Legion, had come.
