A/N: Chp 7! yay! Enjoy!
I do not own KH or Square Enix but I did in a dream once!
Chapter VII: Another One?
No matter where you step they watch,
For they are not from your dimension,
They invade time and corrupt ties
With the heart and worlds that await,
The past,
Things that occured before the birth and with the birth,
The Chosens' awakened,
The present,
Things that occur now and that of which will unfold
To lead deeper into the depths of mysteries of the past and future,
The future,
Things that will occur as time passes by,
Things may be forgotten or lost
To once again be revealed,
It all began with
Birth by Sleep...
Keyblade...
Sora and Kairi contined walking to Riku's house. Sora noticed it started to get cold all of a sudden but it was the middle of summer. Sora started to shiver and he bit his bottom lip. He crossed his arms hoping to gather more warmth but it didn't help. He noticed Kairi wasn't shivering or anything and was very puzzled.
"Hey, Kairi, is it cold to you?" Sora asked.
"No, why?" Kairi asked while noticing Sora was shivering.
"I just feel really cold..." Sora muttered.
Kairi placed her hand on his forehead to check his temperature.
"You don't have a fever," Kairi said.
"Oh..." Sora paused, "This cut it's getting worse."
Kairi examined the cut again and noticed it was getting worse like Sora said. Her eyes widened and she quickly grabbed Sora's hand.
"Come on, we have to get to Riku fast!" Kairi said and they both ran off.
While they were running Sora noticed something different about the atmosphere. It looked as if everything was spinning and Kairi noticed it too.
"What is happening?" Kairi shouted while she ran faster with Sora.
Sora glanced around for any answer to Kairi's question but found none.
"We have to get out of-?" Sora quickly noticed Kairi was frozen in place.
Everything around him did not move. The palm trees did not sway with the wind. The warm wind did not blow over his flesh and the waves stopped rolling over.
"Kairi..." Sora said as he tried to reach out to her.
"So I see...you can't wield your Keyblade anymore."
Sora looked past Kairi to see an armoured figure. "It's you!" Sora yelled angrily.
"Huh?" the armoured figure cocked his head.
"Ok, so it must be another guy..." Sora thought.
Sora noticed that this armoured man was not as tall or strong as the other one. This one seemed more lean back and also more talkative. His armour wasn't as heavily equipped as the other. It seemed to match his body and looked like it was used for more speed. His helmet was different and had smaller horns then the other. He started to walk closer to Sora and Kairi. Sora instantly moved in front of Kairi to protect her.
"What do you guys want?" Sora yelled with an angry expression.
"We want your Keyblade..."
"Now are you gonna be a nice little boy and hand it over?"
"I'm not a little boy, the name's Sora!" Sora quickly corrected.
"Who said anything about little?" the armoured figure chuckled.
"Ugh, not another weird one..." Sora muttered.
"What was that?" The armoured figure yelled.
"N-nothing..." Sora put his hands up defensively.
"Now...enough with this chitter chatter," he paused, "Hand over the Keyblade."
"No, besides I can't even summon it for what your friend did!" Sora pointed to the cresent shape cut.
"Oh...ouch that had to hurt."
"So he's met you then?"
"Man, now I have nothing to do since he's done all the work."
The armoured figure shook his head and seemed very disappointed.
"Then maybe you should just go and before that tell me what's going on!" Sora spat out.
"Woah, hold up there kiddo, you'll find out soon..."
"Soon?" Sora asked sadly.
"Yeah, and looks like I've wasted precious time." the figure laughed.
The armoured figure turned around and started to walk off.
"Wait!" Sora pleaded.
The armour figure turned half way around.
"What's going to happen?" Sora asked hoping for an answer.
"Can't tell you, for you just have to experience it." the armoured laughed.
Sora clenched his fists and glared rudely at the armoured figure.
"Woah, hold up, we can fight next time."
"Besides, what's the point of fighting if I don't have fun, huh?"
Sora stayed silent and kept his anger under control.
"Well, time for me to go, catch ya later!"
The armoured figure turned around and suddenly disappeared into a dark portal. Sora grabbed Kairi's hand so she wouldn't notice something different and then time started to flow. Sora was suddenly yanked forward and picked up his pace to match Kairi's. Sora kept one of his hands on the cut. It started to sting badly after the encounter with the armoured figure. Exactly what did this cut do besides not able Sora to wield the Keyblade? Kairi then slowed down and put her hand over her eyes to block the sun. Sora looked ahead of Kairi and saw Riku staring at something out into the sea.
"Riku!" Sora yelled.
Riku switched his vision to Sora and Kairi running to him. Kairi fell to her knees and gasped for air. Riku seemed worried and looked at Sora's cut.
"Riku, something weird is going on!" Sora said.
"Yeah, I know, I sensed it," Riku said a little irritated.
"Why did you lie about your injury?" Riku asked.
Sora was shocked at how Riku knew. "I...just don't want to hurt any of your feelings..." Sora weakly said.
"What you're afraid of bringing up what's happening now and not say it to our faces?" Riku asked angrily.
Sora slowly nodded his head and Riku was right.
"Well, that's stupid Sora," Riku stated, "If something's happening you should tell us and maybe we could help."
Kairi soon picked herself up from the ground. "Sora can't use his Keyblade, Riku."
Riku stared at Kairi in shock. He hoped what she just said wasn't true but she couldn't lie.
"What?" Riku asked now looking at Sora.
"It has something to do with this cut and those armoured guys," Sora said.
"Armoured guys?" Riku and Kairi asked in unison.
Sora rubbed the back of his head. "Well...you see..."
Sora finished explaining what has all happened to him. Riku and Kairi were extremely worried and kept asking Sora questions. Sora had no answers to some of the questions they asked.
"Roxas fought for you?" Kairi asked.
"Yeah, it was weird, and I just felt so weak..." Sora mumbled.
"Why do they want our Keyblades?" Riku asked.
"I don't know, but this cut is preventing me from using the Keyblade," Sora said disappointly.
"Don't you think it's a little odd though?" Riku asked.
"What?" Sora asked raising an eyebrow.
"That one of them gave you a cut and you can easily cure that with magic?" Riku said.
"Yeah, it's kind of too easy..." Sora trailed off.
"What if it had something to with everything just suddenly freezing in place?" Kairi asked the two.
"Time," Riku pointed out.
"You mean they are using time to affect our Keyblades?" Sora asked.
"Yeah, that's why we need to go see King Mickey and the others," Riku declared.
"Wait, what about a gummi ship?" Sora asked.
"Oh he'll know soon," Riku said with a smile.
"Yeah," Sora agreed.
"Come on we have to go tell the others," Kairi paused, "You don't want to leave them without saying bye this time."
"Yeah, it won't happen this time for sure," Sora calmly said.
They all walked back to the main island but it was too late to tell the rest of the gang their 'goodbye's'. They all decided on telling them tomorrow if King Mickey soon found out what was going on. They parted their seperate way to their houses and soon fell asleep.
K get ready for chp. 8! and believe me chp 7 was no cakewalk.
