Ansem glared at the figure on the floor in front of him. Sephiroth cringed at the sound of his voice. "Don't ever try that again or I'll kill you. Got it?" he asked, his voice cold and dangerous. Sephiroth shook his head as much as he could. "Good. Now make sure it doesn't happen again." He snarled at him before heading towards the door. Sephiroth slowly got into a kneeling position before he spoke, his voice stopping Ansem as he reached the door. "I just want to know how you're allowed to have some fun with other people but I'm not." He said in anger as he stood up. Ansem turned and faced him before walking towards him. "You're allowed to have fun with other people but not with my experiment. If this experiment is successful then you'll be able to have as much fun as you want to with him and he will be willing to participate. So shut up and be patient." He said before walking out of the room to leave a pissed Sephiroth to tend to his wounds in which he had received.
Sora sat in silence as the group thought in the middle of the hallway. He looked down at the ground as he waited patiently for any suggestions from the other three. He had given up thinking a while ago. Part of it was because it hurt his small, puny brain and the other was because he just couldn't think of anything. He was under too much pressure and stress for him to be able to think of anything. He looked up at them with hopeful until he heard a noise from a hall a couple of hallways from them. "Someone's coming." He said. The three snapped out of their train of thought when they heard this and immediately started to think of somewhere to hide until the person passed them. Cloud grabbed onto Sora's wrist and pulled him into the closest room with the other's following close behind. They closed the door as quietly as possible before the footsteps turned onto their hall and proceeded to come closer to their door. Everyone held their breath as the figure walked by and turned onto the next hallway. They all let out a sigh of relief after the couldn't hear the footsteps anymore. "Ok, I think out would be safer to just stay in this room until we can figure out what to do." Leon said as he turned around to face the room. What he saw made his mouth drop open. In the room they were standing in was filled with heartless everywhere. Yet, they didn't attack them. Their eyes only got big as their gaze settled on Sora. Cloud drew his sword and stepped in front of Sora ready to protect his younger brother. He waited but nothing happened. If anything happened it was the exact opposite of what they expected. Instead of attacking they started to cower in fear and trying to get to the back of the room as fast as they could. Cloud looked at Leon with a questioning look on his face. Leon, who had regained his composure, shrugged his shoulders before placing a hand on Cloud's sword and gentle made him lower it. "I don't think they will attack. I think they're afraid of us." He said.
Riku stared at the cowardly heartless who had crowded to the back of the room as much as they could. Sora seemed to go into some sort of trance as his eyes swept over the sea of scared heartless. Riku noticed this and waved a hand in front of his face causing the younger boy to snap back to reality. "What happened?" he asked. Riku shrugged before speaking. "You zoned out for a minute there." He said as he watched the younger boy gaze at the heartless again. "I-I think I can communicate with them." He said in a strange voice. His gaze became distant as he said this. The other three looked at him with weird expressions, Cloud's coated with worry at this. Sora suddenly snapped back and looked at them. "They said that they're the failed experiments from the past. Ansem has used them to try out a spell but each one failed." He said before he zoned out again, apparently talking to them again. Suddenly, Sora's face fell. The three immediately wanted to know what was being said. Sora looked over at them with a sad stricken face. "And?" Riku asked, fearing the answer. "I'm the current experiment." He said before falling to his knees. The room fell silent as the group heard this. It repeated itself over and over again in each boy's head. Would Sora turn out just like all the others? But what if this experiment would succeed? What would happen then?
So...um...any opinions?
