Kingdom Heartless

Royal Blood

Goofy and Donald stared in disbelief. Donald started to scream, and Goofy was yelling, " C'mon, Sora, beat the darkness! You can do it! I know you can! I know you ... can?" Sora had was looking right at them. His bloodshot eyes glared maliciously. Donald stopped screaming. Goofy stopped yelling. Animal-like senses picked up unadulterated fear. Instincts told him to strike. He flew forward, then suddenly stopped. He sensed stronger emotion behind him. One with much more darkness in their heart. The half-transformed heartless had been in daze since Sora had leaped in front of the darkness. He was starting to snap out of it. In a vague, hollow sounding voice, he began to speak, "A... heartless? Sora is a... heartless?" He threw his head back and laughed. He did not notice Sora silently flying up to him. Sora launched his arm forward. His hand landed right on the heartless emblem. His nails dug into the flesh. Ansem's transformation began to complete itself. The fangs grew, and clothing changed. Ansem was a mirror of Sora. They both turned they're eyes toward Goofy and Donald, who were petrified with fear. "No!" a high-pitched voice rang out loudly. Mickey flew right between the heartless, and Goofy and Donald.

Kairi woke up with a jolt. She was sure she had heard Sora asking for forgiveness. Was he here in Traverse Town? Had he beaten Ansem and come back to visit? Would he take her back to Destiny Islands? She looked around. You're being silly! she thought to herself. Go back to bed. She settled back under the covers of the bed, and dreamed of Sora.

"Gawrsh, it's King Mickey!" Goofy said excitedly. Donald actually stopped worrying for once. "Your Majesty!" he exclaimed. "How did you get here?"

"There's no time for explainin'." said Mickey forcefully. "Get outta here!"

"Yes Your Majesty." Donald and Goofy said in unison. Sora and Ansem had began fly towards Mickey. "Take the doors, fellas. My gummi's in there. I'll handle these two."

"All by yourself?" asked Goofy.

Mickey blocked a ball of darkness that had been flung at him. "GO!" he screamed.

"Yessir." Donald and Goofy said in unison. They floated towards the doors.

Mickey floated up quickly in order to dodge the claws of his attackers. He turned his gaze towards the heartless masquerading as Ansem. He wouldn't hurt Sora, even if Sora was a heartless, but if he killed the other, Sora might back down. He threw his keyblade down in a Strike Raid towards the seeker of darkness. It hit it's target, but didn't seem to do much other than leave a cut and reveal Mickey's position. The keyblade returned to Mickey's hand and Mickey flew straight down in a dive. Both heartless jumped to the side. Mickey kept flying down at full speed. The trick worked. It took the heartless a second to register the target was gone. They lifted heads up for a second and closed their eyes. They sensed emotion below them. They opened their eyes and flew down after it. Mickey was waiting . He lunged forward and smacked "Ansem" right on the chin with the keyblade, then flew above him and unleased a good four hits on his back. Ansem screamed and turned hateful eyes to Mickey. He jumped up and swung his hands furiously. Mickey ducked under his blind strikes and smacked him in the head again. So far so good, thought Mickey. He jumped up and kicked "Ansem's" face. Ansem flew down. He was looking pretty damaged. He had bleeding cuts on his back and his nose was broken. "Well, fella, it's been nice fighting with you. I'm almost sorry to have to do this," Mickey called. He prepared for another Strike Raid, when he suddenly stopped. Agony poured over his back, and he realized that Sora had stabbed him in the back with his claws. Mickey was paralyzed by darkness. "Ansem" threw his hand back to stab the heart and lunged forward.

TO BE CONTINUED

Author's Note: If your's wondering about why Kairi was sleeping in a bed, I decided that all people need to sleep and that Kairi is no different. It's always dark in Traverse Town (And always light in Twilight Town ha-ha-ha!) I also think that Gummi travel takes much longer than the five minutes it take in the games. I'm thinking it takes at least an hour.
