Part 2

Roxas obsereved the platform and noticed the situation was becoming even more serious. If either of them moved it would cause the platform to crack even more and plunge them into the dark depths that waited below. Roxas looked at the armoured figure and he just stood there watching Roxas.

"Hey this platform is going to shatter if we keep moving-

The armoured figure interrupted Roxas by charging at him. Roxas quickly put his two keyblades in front of him to block the attack. Their keyblades collided and crackling noises could be heard under their feet.

"Are you crazy?" Roxas gasped, "If we keep fighting like this, we'll be falling into oblivion!" He said angrily.

Roxas pushed more force and slashed both of his keyblades forward and the armoured figure jumped back. When he landed on the platform harshly the edges ot the platform started to break off and fall into the everlasting darkness. The middle remained intact and they both watched as the platform started to disappear little by little.

"Fight...Nobody."

"That's Roxas!" Roxas shouted rudely.

Roxas then began charging at the other. Every footstep caused the crack to spread and Roxas heard it underneath his running feet. The armoured figure kept still and didn't move but waited for the impact.

"What's with this guy, it's like he doesn't fear anything..."

The armoured figure then vanished before Roxas's eyes. Roxas stopped charging and then he sensed something above him and looked up. The armoured figure was about to crash into him with his keyblade and Roxas suddenly dove to the right and the armoured figure piereced his keyblade into the platform. Roxas's cerulean eyes widened and the keyblade shone with a gold radiance. It sent cracks through out the whole platform and when Roxas took a step back the whole platform shattered. The small pieces hovered in the air and Roxas stood on a piece of the platform that had the image of the Kingdom Key. The armoured figure stood on a piece of the platform with King Mickey's keyblade.

"We can't fight like this..." Roxas muttered to himself.

Roxas began to jump from platform to platform and the armoured figure followed Roxas. Roxas jumped high into the air and the armoured figure appeared right before Roxas and they slashed at each other in the air fiercefully. The amoured figure blocked both Oathkeeper and Oblivion with his single keyblade and pushed Roxas off. The armoured figure then held out his left hand and a powerful force attacked Roxas and sent him flying down onto another platform with a crash. Roxas laid on the platform while gasping for air and keeping a tight grip on Oathkeeper and Oblivion. Roxas slowly got up and got back into his battle position.

"Over here..."

Roxas looked to his right and saw the armoured figure stadning on another platform.

"How did he get down here so fast?"

"Roxas..."

Roxas then looked to his left and saw the armoured figure over there also.

"What?" Roxas yelled and was confused.

Roxas then saw one in front of him and sensed another behind him. Roxas kept his guard up and his eyes sharp.

"Illusions?" Roxas asked to the one on his right.

"Perhaps...or maybe even the real thing..."

The right, left, and the one behind all charged at Roxas. Roxas quickly forced both of his keyblades and his body to swing around in a spiral formation and blocked the figures on the left and right and pushed off their keyblades to jump in the air. The other one soon charged in after the other and Roxas plunged Oathkeeper down to pierce through the figure and it disappeared. The one in front of him then charged and Roxas almost didn't block it's attack. Roxas moved his left hand with Oblivion and blocked the armoured figuer's keyblade with Oathkeeper. He quickly slashed at the figure and it hit him in the side and it also disappeared. The one on the left soon came charging in and Roxas quickly turned around to end it's attack and causing that one to disappear also.

"Forget me?"

Roxas heard those words and instanly turned around to see the one that was on his right slash at him. Roxas performed a backlfip on the small platform he managed to stay on and dodged the attack. The platform started to crumble and Roxas glanced around for another to jump on. He saw a piece of the platform with The Way to Dawn on it and quickly jumped over to it. That was the only piece left for him to be safe from the darkness that crept below. Roxas looked above and saw the amoured figure.

"So he can fly...great," Roxas said.

Just as Roxas said those words more armoured figure appeared and Roxas stared in shock. There were about 15 or 20 now and the number kept growing.

"I can't fight that many!" Roxas yelled out.

Roxas's arms began shaking and his legs felt numb. Roxas stumbled back and was on the edge of the platform. Roxas's foot then slipped off the platform and he fell backwards. Oathkeeper and Oblivion disappeared once they left his hands. Roxas kept falling bet it felt slow and Roxas managed to look at all the armoured figures above again.

"I'm sorry...I let you down, Sora..."

Roxas kept falling and then an explosion of light engulfed Roxas. Roxas closed his eyes to not be blinded. Roxas just kept on falling and then a pale hand held out to him while he hovered in the air.

"Don't be afraid..."

Roxas opened his eyes to see the pale hand and the person who offered to help. Roxas slowly reached for the hand and then grabbed it. The light grew even brighter around him and he closed his eyes to be welcomed by the calm darkness...


"Hey, Sora come on!" a voice yelled out.

Sora quickly opened his eyes to be greeted by the bright sun. He put his hand up to block the brightness.

"What's the matter?" Riku asked.

Sora looked up and Riku soon noticed something different.

"How'd you get that cut on your face?" Riku asked concerned and he pointed to Sora's face.

"Huh?" Sora asked and he placed his hand on his cheek.

Sora felt warm liquid on his fingers and then realized it was blood. Sora was bewildered and wiped the blood off with his hand.

"When I fell in the sand maybe a sharp shell cut my face and I didn't realize it," Sora lied.

Riku narrowed his eyes and then Selphie came over to the two.

"Oh, will you two hurry up?" Selphie pouted.

"Ok, ok, geez, we're coming alright," Riku said and walked off.

Sora put his hand back on his cheek. It stung with pain as he touched it. He looked out towards the ocean and sighed.

"What if...the journey really isn't over at all..." Sora whispered.

"Yo, Sora!" Tidus yelled.

"Come on, ya!" Wakka finished the sentence.

Sora turned around to see all of his friend staring at him. Sora scrathed the back of his head and blushed a little.

"Hehe, sorry..." Sora said and ran off to catch up with the others.

Your journey has come thus far,

For there is a beginning,

There must be an end,

The one who holds the connection with all

Shall once again step forward,

With the other you by your side,

For the other will defend you from all

While you seek answers for another realm,

Although your strength may diminish

Reconnect it to time,

While you walk through another realm,

Let your light burn strong,

Follow your heart,

For it is the strongest weapon of all...
