Sachiko and Crusadermon were scouring the labyrinth in search of the enemy.
"Geez, I can't believe how easily we got seperated. Those 13 darknesses sure don't mess around, do they?" Sachiko asked.
"Indeed. Such a clever foe this Xehanort. Knowing him he's likely further in. But for now we should focus on supporting the guardians." Crusadermon said.
"Yet we can't find where we are." Sachiko said. "Can you sense anything?"
"Hmm...no. This huge concentration of darkness and light has thrown off my senses." she said.
"Wait….I think I hear something." Sachiko said as she heard clashing not to far away. "Sounds like a fight's already started." she said running towards the sound as she saw Mickey keeping his own against Luxord, Marluxia and Larxene.
"King Mickey. He's fighting all three of them by himself. We've got to go help him!" Sachiko said.
"I'm coming, your majesty." a voice shouted as Francisca entered the fighting area.
"Mickey, hang on!" Sectonia said entering as well.
"Hang on!" Sachiko said entering with Crusadermon as the entrances sealed themselves off.
"Looks like we've got ourselves some party crashers, boys." Larxene smirked.
"Sectonia… I had hoped you'd come." Marluxia said.
"Marluxia. I had a feeling I'd run into you here." Sectonia said. "That Heartless that I saw in Port Royal, that was what you meant back in Corona, wasn't it?"
"Of course it was. It was the darkness that you kept building up within your heart after all." Marluxia said. "And I would've thought it consumed you. Instead, you conquered it. I can't have that."
"What can I say? Things are different now. I've found people that accept me for who I am, not what I once was." Sectonia said.
"You truly have changed from the queen of vanity you once were. Sadly...this means the organization has no use for you." Marluxia said. "Bloom...Graceful Dahlia!" he said as his scythe appeared in his hands.
"So, Franny right? You're the Ice Boy's protege?" Larxene asked.
"That's right. And you'll find that I'm just as stubborn as he is." Francisca said.
"Its like I said back in Arendelle… ice is so not my style." Larxene said. "I think after I rip you apart, I'll go after him next. Strike, Foudre!" Larxene shouted making her knives appear.
"My...what a game that has begun. But...we have far too many players to make it right." Luxord said as he tossed two cards at Sachiko.
"Look out, Sachiko!" Crusadermon said blocking one of the cards.
"Sachiko!" Mickey said blocking the other. But both cards soon glowed as they sucked Mickey and Crusadermon into each one as they returned to Luxord.
"Crusadermon! Mickey!" Sachiko called out.
"Want them back?" Luxord asked as several larger cards appeared. "One final game girl. To win is simple. You must find me among these cards and strike me down." Luxord said vanishing from sight in a flash.
"Alright. Guess I gotta fight cards with cards." Sachiko said bringing out a Duel Disk.
"A dueling device? How interesting. Though in the end, I shall emerge as the victor." Luxord said.
"We'll see about that." Sachiko said as she drew and summon a monster. "Go, Blade Skater!"
"What? You think a virtual image can…" Luxord said as Blade Skater sliced a card in half. "What...but...that shouldn't even be real."
"You can thank Tails and Mari's tech. The duel disk channels the enhanced power inside me into the cards...meaning...any cards I play while wearing this...are as real as you and me." Sachiko said. "Shame that wasn't the card you're hiding in. But no worries. I have plenty of chances."
"I see. Then this is truly a game now. Find me, if you can." Luxord challenged.
"Gladly. First, I'll add in Quickdraw Synchron." Sachiko said summoning the creature. " But first, I'll use Cost Down to lower its level by 1. Now, I'll tune Quickdraw Synchron onto Blade Skater! Now, I'll Synchro Summon...Fleur de Chevalier!"
"A synchro summon is it? Not sure how much difference that will make." Luxord said.
"Oh it's gonna make a big difference. Your cards act sort of like magic cards. So...using my monsters ability...I'm shutting them all down! Starting...there!" she shouted pointing to the one on the far right as the monster pierced it, revealing Luxord under it.
"(Not good. She found me.)" Luxord thought.
"Luxord...you have a fondness for games and for rules. However...if any of us are gonna make it out of here...this is where it ends for you." Sachiko said as her monster pierced right through Luxord.
"You...you were born for these sorts of games, girl." Luxord said tossing a blank card at her.
"What's this?" Sachiko asked.
"A wild card. Might come in handy someday." Luxord said as he started to fade.
"When you become human again, anytime you want a rematch… Just let me know, I'll be waiting." Sachiko said.
"Heh. I should like that very much...Sachiko." Luxord said as he faded completely and releasing Mickey and Crusadermon.
"Grrr….useless." Larxene growled. "Do I have to do everything around here?" Larxene said as lightning surged around her. "Before I finish off card girl...I gotta slit your throat first, ice witch."
"Just try it." Francisca said. "Hang back, Sachiko. Leave the rest to us."
"Okay." Sachiko said going back.
"I'm done playing nice!" Larxene said as her knives grew into sharp claws of electricity. "This is the end for you, Franny!" she called charging with volts surging.
"Time to play my trump card!" Francisca said. "Awaken the song that speaks of empty sky… Now, harken to thee the voice of the ocean's lord!"
"Wh..what the hell?!" Larxene said as Leviathan appeared out of a portal riding a wave of water. "What...what are you? You're just some no name girl apprenticing that ice brat."
"No name? No...I'm Francisca...of the Three Mage Sisters. Tidal Wave!" Francisca said as the wave came down on Larxene as she was electrocuted when the water and electricity mixed.
"Grr...rotten…" Larxene said as she started to fade. "What? This...again...really?"
"You're gonna be recompleted." Francisca said.
"I didn't ask you for your garbage opinion! I lost to a bunch of losers like you! But… could be worse. Become that geezers heart tank? No thanks." Larxene said.
"Then why do this? Why do any of this?" Francisca asked.
"To be honest, I was really just along for the ride." Larxene said.
"With?" Francisca asked.
"Hehehe. My secret." she said before fading completely.
"Well...it looks as though things are not going our way here." Marluxia said. "So...it's about time I wrapped things up." Marluxia said as the size of his scythe grew larger as he swung it back. "Goodbye… Queen Sectonia."
"No, it's not over yet!" Sectonia said entering Lavender God Mode but with a knight like armor, angel wings and a shield.
"What's this?" Marluxia asked.
"What you're looking at is the newly-reformed Sectonia. When I started this journey, I didn't think anyone was going to accept me. But over the course of it, I've made more friends than I ever thought I'd make. They didn't care who I was, they accepted me for who I am now. And now, I want to return their kindness by protecting them with my life." Sectonia said. "That's why, what you're seeing is Lavender God Mode: The Angelic!"
"It means nothing. You will fall with everyone here!" Marluxia said bringing his scythe down on her, only to be retaliated with a sword slash that knocks the scythe right out of his hands. "That's...impossible."
"Like a good friend of mine said, there's no such thing as impossible." Sectonia said. "Lavender God's Seraphic Elegy!" she said firing a beam of light from her sword.
Marluxia was pierced by the beam as he collapsed on the ground. "So now I begin to remember." Marluxia groaned as he laughed a bit.
"Is that...a real laugh?" Sectonia asked.
"Yes. My heart is remembering how to feel again." Marluxia said.
"That's good to hear." Sectonia said.
"And now, I am on the cusp of reclaiming my identity, my purpose for being. Thanks to you, Sectonia." Marluxia said as he faded completely.
Sectonia soon reverted. "I think that's everyone here."
"You four should rest. I'm going to continue ahead and search for Xemnas." Mickey said.
"Got it. Be careful." Sachiko said.
