Chapter 10

"Damn it, Leon!" Cloud exclaimed as he shot the sun from the left, "They're everywhere!"

Leon turned the controls sharply as Riku shot down another batch of heartless ships.

"What are we going to do?" Riku said, slightly panicked, "I'm running out of ammunition!"

"Damn…" Leon mumbled, rolling the ship quickly out of the way of an attack, Cloud pressing on his controls to get rid of the ships on his side. Riku looked at the two, trying hard to battle the horde of ships just to get to Hallow Bastion. The sliver haired boy snapped and unbuckled himself from the seat.

"Leon, hold the ship steady," Riku said, tapping his shoulder, before reaching the center of the ship. Leon did as he was told, Cloud looking back to see Riku with his eyes closed, arms held out wide.

Cloud took in a breath as a dark purple light surrounded the boy, making his skin paler than normal.

"Darkness…"

Heartless…Riku called out, feeling the inward push from his body, telling him they had stopped; do not attack this ship…

The teenager could feel the confusion from the monsters, and concentrated harder. Finally, the ships backed away, Riku falling to his knees as the eerie light disappeared. Cloud got up quickly and hurried to Riku, lifting him up. Helping him to his seat, the man smiled at him.

"You did it!" Cloud praised, patting Riku's shoulder. Riku smiled weakly at him, slowly gaining the color back into his face.

"Thanks…Riku…" Leon said quietly.

Anything…anything for Sora…

The trio saw a world in the distance, dark clouds looming over the surface.

"The world…," Riku stated, "It…is dying…"

In their hearts they also knew its prince was too.

Asylia flew threw the vent quickly, seeing the opening to the dungeon. The bird flew easily through the small fence covering it, scanning the dungeon for Sora. Black stone was the only thing that greeted his eyes, until the green eyes fell onto a prisoner wearing a dark blue robe, red hair standing out in the darkness.

Master Jada!

The dove flew quickly to the cell holding the small man, entered the cell easily, transforming into his human form before landing. The light woke up the man, one blue eye peering up quickly.

"Master Jada," Asylia said, as a weak smile played on pale lips. Jada looked at him fully.

"Asylia…you came…"

"What happened to you!" Asylia shook his head as he felt tears form in his eyes. Jada was the man who helped Asylia escape Ansem's clutches after the royal family was killed. Ansem knew who he was, based on information that he knew from Halen.

"Never mind me….The prince…he's two cells down….Ansem just brought him down. Please help him, Asylia."

Asylia felt his heart tug for Sora, his programmed duty to the royal family over riding the need to help his friend. The boy stood up.

"We'll be back," He said strongly, "Don't die…" Asylia received a hallow laugh in response.

"I don't play on dying before Ansem…" Jada said, smiling sadly. Asylia gave him one last glance before transforming back, flying two cells down. The boy changed back, standing before the cell.

Asylia gasped when he saw the prince, sitting in the back of the cell, no chains keeping him inside. Dressed in white and gold, the boy looked like such a contrast to the darkness that surrounded him.

"Prince Sora!" Asylia shook the bars to stir the boy, gaining success. Sora looked up, his distant blue eyes connecting with Asylia's green. The moment those eyes connected, Asylia let out a scream, falling to his knees. Voices echoed inside his head.

What happened Leon? What happened to momma and father? Where's Riku!

Five years ago…Sora demanding to know what happened…

They're dead…your highness…

It was Leon, telling Sora the truth, watching the prince sadly as he cried. Then, the images of Sora's pain flooded into the strange boy's mind.

I killed them! If I wasn't a prince, no one would be dead!

Why Sora…

Blood was on the boy's face, his hands, crimson tears streaking down Asylia's face.

Run…I've got to run away…

Sora…

Lastly, Riku's pained voice reached his ears, yelling, and an image of the boy's tears falling in front of him.

YOU KILLED MY FATHER!

"SORA!" Asylia screamed, holding his head. He wanted it to stop, the blood and pain was too much for one person to take. It was killing him, killing Sora, killing the world around him.

"Only the love and light of the one he holds most dear will help the white knight save the prince…" said a cool voice, boots descending down the stairs. Ansem appeared, and Asylia felt Sora become inwardly angry, for just a second.

"It's too late, Guardian," Ansem said, stopping before him, "The prince is gone to

Darkness…"

Asylia laughed weakly as he looked up. "You don't know the prince very well…"

Ansem kicked the guardian swiftly in the stomach, causing the boy to lose his breath. This seemed to stir Sora more, the prince sitting up quickly.

"Prince…" Ansem said, in a demanding tone, "Back to sleep…" Sora stopped for a moment, looking at Asylia, then slumped back.

"Yes Father…"

Asylia looked up at Ansem, his green eyes filled with hatred.

"I can't believe you…."

Ansem laughed, opening the cell door across from Sora. "What? That he's calling me 'father'?" Asylia felt the man grab his blonde locks, and lazily toss him in the cell.

"That…" said the king "is an added bonus of the prince's delusion…"

Ansem waved a hand and black bands wrapped around the blonde's feet and hands, canceling out all of his powers. Asylia stood and tried to get out, only to have the door slam in his face. Ansem smirked to him as he received another glare.

"You won't be saving your prince…" Ansem said, "I've killed the ones he loves the most, and the rest of his loved ones will be dead after this…I do hope you enjoy it down here, because your stay will be brief…"

The white haired man walked away, leaving Asylia to fight with the bands. Asylia kicked the bar and pain raced up his leg, him grabbing on too it. The boy sat down, looking over to his prince to find that Sora was staring right at him, crawling close to the door.

"Who...are… you…?"
