The scenery appeared again. Alex looked at his hands. The keyblade was in his right hand, while the Kanara was in his left. What hell was that?
Alex looked up. Cloud was on the verge of killing Sora. "I'm coming Sora!" Cloud stopped attacking and turned his head, only to get knocked back by Alex. Sora opened an eye. Alex was over him. "Come on, Sora, hang in there buddy."
Goofy and Donald ran up with Phil. Alex turned to him. "Get him out of here." Alex redrew his weapons. Everyone stared at his keyblade. Donald's mouth fell open. "Wha-?"
"Now!" They dragged him off the arena, Alex running forward. Cloud regrouped, sword at the ready. Too late. Alex had charged again, this time attacking with both the sword and the keyblade. Cloud barely enough time to grab his weapon.
On the other side of the stadium, Hades watched with shocked. He though Hercules was a problem enough and here was a fifteen year old kid, who was fighting with twice the power as him. And to use two weapons perfectly. "Note to self, never pick a fight with that guy. Oh well, almost time for plan B."
Cloud blocked the next attack, keeping their weapons locked. They strained against each other. Cloud looked Alex in the eye. There was something about him. Something familiar. Cloud shook off the thought.
"How are you so strong? You're only fifteen!"
Alex looked back at him. "I have no idea. I'm just as lost as you are!"
Alex felt the ground shake. He looked behind Cloud. "Uh... Cloud?"
Before Cloud could turn, a giant paw came down on him. Hades smiled.
"Oh, right, there was one other rule I forgot: Accidents happen."
Alex looked up. Razor sharp teeth were right above him.
"Oh, shizz."
"Heal!" Sora stood up, a little dizzy. What was that all about? And why does Alex have a keyblade?
"You all right Sora?" Sora turned to see Goofy.
"I'm alright now, thanks." Phil came up to them.
"Oh man, this is just great. Cerberus, the guardian of the Underworld, is out there. Herc should be able to handle him. But then again, maybe not... This doesn't look good."
Sora looked around. "Hey, where's Alex?"
"Him? He's still in there. I'm not even sure if a kid of his magnitude could handle Cerberus."
Sora turned to the others. "We've got to help him." He ran for the entrance to the arena.
"Kid, you're not entering the arena, are ya? This ain't just some match. This is for real!"
Sora faced Phil. "I'm not afraid. You can decide if I'm hero material or not." The group ran into the stadium.
Cerberus plunged one of its head's at Alex. Hercules grabbed it with one hand, picking up Cloud with the other. Alex ran around, dodging its attacks.
"Bad doggy. Sit. Stay." Alex held up his weapons. "Don't make me use these."
Sora and co ran in. "Alex!"
Alex blocked its next attack and turned. "Sup?" Hercules ran off the stadium. Phil gave the party one last advice.
"Kid, I got two words of advice for you: Attack!"
Cerberus jumped, causing a giant shockwave. Alex jumped, grabbing Cerberus's leg. "They don't call me spider-boy for nothing." He said as he climbed.
Sora shouted to him. "They don't call you spider-boy!"
"I know!" Alex stood on top of its head. He drew his sword, driving it into the skull.
"RRRROOOOAAARRR!"
"That's got to hurt." He yanked it out, and jumped to join the group. Sora swung his keyblade at it. Donald ran dodging its stomping legs. He cast a freeze spell, soon followed by a thunder. One of its head turned to Donald and swooped down, teeth bared.
"Donald!" Goofy ran forward, blocking it with his shield. "Ya got to be more careful, Donald." Donald nodded.
Cerberus got mad. With one roar, it spewed a fireball at Alex. Sora dove, pushing Alex out of the way.
"Whoa, nice dive Sora."
Cerberus lunged. Alex charged his weapons. They began to glow. He pointed them at it. He fired a beam of light at Cerberus, knocking it down cold. In a flash of light, it disappeared.
Alex wiped his forehead. "Sora?"
"Yeah, Alex?"
"We are never getting a dog."
