Phantom64: Sorry it took so long. Here it is.
Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to mention that Lance has a southern accent. Remember that.
Chapter: 27: Nobodies, Heartless, and Koopas oh my!
In the Dark City of the World that Never Was, Jexyll, one of the new members was running toward Memories Skyscraper. He was a scrawny teenager of 16, with wavy brown hair, emotional blue eyes, and the typical black Organization cloak. His code name was # 9, The Peaceful Psychopath. He partially hated that name. It was true that he was peaceful. Jexyll couldn't hurt a fly, let alone a man. It was the psychopath part that bothered him. Psychopaths were people who are crazy, and violent. He wasn't craz or violent. He was probably the most docile member. But he didn't have time to think about his confusing call sign. He was ordered to meet the superior ASAP.
"Yo! Jexyll!" A female voice called out. Jexyll stopped and looked around at eh gloomy buildings around him and found no one. "Up here garden boy!" He looked up at a two story building to his left, to find Xena,(A/N: No not THAT Xena!), the beautiful # 10 The Young Amazon. She was a beautiful woman of 17, with the body and face of a Brazilian model, Her skin was a Brazilian tan, eyes as green as a jungle, her hair was semi-long and colored green. She didn't wear the Organization cloak, but instead a black leotard with black bra, black sandals, and a black cape that went to her knees. Xena jumped off the building and landed gracefully next to Jexyll.
Uh, h-h-h-h-h-h-hi Xena." Jexyll stuttered blushing. It was no secret that he has a crush on her, despite his lack of a heart. Her arms and thighs were slightly thick with muscle, but they showed now veins or bulges of muscle, just her beautiful tanned arms and legs. She has an infamous dislike of men, much like a real Amazon. She found most men as chauvinistic overbearing, pigs. But she respected Ralix the superior for his power. But it was the fact that she usually hung out with the weakling Jexyll that confused the others. Jexyll was cowardly and had no fighting abilities whatsoever. She simply told them that a meek and harmless man, is better than a strong pompous man.
"Quit your stuttering garden boy!" She berated. Garden boy was her personal nickname for him. Jexyll had appointed himself the gardener of the Dark City, tending to the scarce flowers and other plant life. It wasn't easy since there was no sunlight here, but he managed. "Come on. The superior called me too."
"I wonder what he wants with us." He asked, trying to keep his eyes off her revealing body.
"I don't know." She muttered casually as they climbed the steps of the skyscraper. "Probably some confusing mission that still doesn't tell us or any one else if were either good or evil as usual." She then eyed her meek companion. "Oh and Jexyll? My eyes are up here. " She growled.
Jexyll shot his head up, his face beat red. "I'M SORRY!" He wailed, obviously afraid of angering her.
She simply rolled her eye. "Just….don't make a habit of it." She whispered, a small cheery blush on her face. Jexyll looked at her confused but decided not to say anything. They centered the elevator that took them to the meeting room. They exited to find the table with 13 chairs, the one at the end seating Ralix, his hood still up, on the right side was Xilly and a annoyed Zeltrax, on the left was the white lion Xcars who instead of sitting sat on all fours next to Ralix, and sitting in the chairs on the left was Roxas, holding an ice pack to his head.
"What happened to you?" Xena asked Roxas as she and Jexyll left the elevator.
"Ask her." He moaned pointing at Xilly.
"What? You trying to hurt my Sora!" Xilly stated.
"fangirls." Xena muttered, already getting the picture.
"what you did was completely irresponsible." Zeltrax, who would be considered the oldest by 26, berated. "You attacked your own comrade, put your feelings before your mission, and all for some brat who probably doesn't even like y-" Zeltrax yelped as Xilly whacked him upside the head.
"Don't say that!" She growled. "Sora WILL love me! Just watch!"
Zeltrax glared at the violet haired Nobody. "Why you irresponsible, good for nothing little b-"
"ENOUGH!" Ralix commanded. Both of them stopped their squabble. "If you want to play your game with Sora do it on your own time xilly." He then looked at Xena and Jexyll. "Now then. I've called you here because you will be escorting Travis McKnight on his new heist."
"And I told ye I don't need you weirdoes help stealing a bloody wand!" The Irish thief Travis grunted appearing out of the shadows.
"I believe you will seeing as Sora is in the Mushroom Kingdom and with several allies." Ralix commented.
"Sora's there?!?" Xilly exclaimed.
"Ah yes that lad." Travis said. "It'll be fun to meet with him again." He looked at Xena and Jexyll. "Fine you can come along, just don't get in me way." Xena glared at him while Jexyll simply nodded.
"Oh Please! Please! Please! Let me go with them!" Xilly begged Ralix.
"No." Ralix said bluntly.
"Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Please! Plea-"
"For the love of all that is holy just her go!" Zeltrax begged holding his ears.
"Fine!" He moaned defeated. "Just don't pull anything like you did last time."
"Oh thank you Ralix!" Xilly beamed and went over and kissed the superior and the cheek. Even with his hood up, a blush could be seen. "Hold on Sora! Mistress Xilly's coming for ya!" She yelled opinging a portal of darkness and running full speed into it.
"Come on Garden Boy. Let's get after her before she glomps this Sora guy to death." Xena said, grabbing Jexyll by the arm and pulled him into the portal.
"Right behind you Xena." He said blushing.
"I'll be back for me munny Ralix, with wand in hand." Travis said as he entered the portal and it closed.
Ralix sighed as he leaned in his chair. "You always give into that girl don't you?" the lion
Nobody Xcars asked. Ralix simply blushed.
"Changing the subject." Zeltrax said. "I understand having Xena as back up against Sora, and Xilly's a capable fighter on her own accord, but why have Jexyll with them? He was separated from the others he'd be dead in a second with out the lesser Nobodies to help him."
"True his combat skills are poor, but his haling abilities make him essential in case one is severely injured. But there's something about him… it feels like there's something within him…something dangerous." Ralix explained. Roxas and Zeltrax looked at him worried. "It's as if there are two essences within him. One peaceful…the other psychotic.
KH-KH-KH
Sora slashed at the Neo-shadows and Darkballs as the insane battle continued in Toad Town square. He, Kairi, Mario, Ryo, Stitch, Sara, Bugs, Aerith, Jay, and Silent Bob were being overpowered by the mob of Heartless and Koopa Clan. He finally spotted his Heartless Aros grinning at him. "This is too crowded. Why don't we fight somewhere with a little space?" Aros jumped up onto the roof of a large house and beckoned him. Sora jumped after him and landed on the opposite end of the roof, Kingdom Key in hand.
"I don't know how you exist Aros, but I won't let you hurt my friends." Sora growled bravely and readied his keyblade.
"Oh, you and your little keyblade! You think you're so big because you have one." Aros sneered. "But when you add darkness and a keyblade then you're trouble!" Suddenly He summoned a keylbade of his own. The hilt seemed comprised of a large lack bone, the arm guard of white bones put together in a circle, and at the end of the white blade was a dragon's skull. The keychain was a skull as well. 'Twilight Bone' came into Sora's head, the name of his keyblade. Aros leaped into the air and came down with a horizontal slash. Sora jumped to another part of the roof as the Heartless' keyblade came down, utterly destroying that part of the roof. Sora was shocked by his raw strength. Sora dashed at him and began to duel against him, keyblade to keyblade. Aros' attacks were brutal, each swing filled with utter power. Sora's swings were quick and dynamic, but Aros' strength was tiring him.
"Man! Your tough!" He panted. "But I have a few tricks up my sleeves."
"Yeah, well so do I!" Aros mocked. "Check this out!" There was a blast of light and dark energy and Sora looked in surprise to see that he now had TWO keyblades! They were completely identical to Twilight Bone, but the one in his right hand was completely white, while the one in his left was completely black. "See why it's called Twilight Bone?" He asked with a grin.
"Oh boy." Sora moaned as Aros charged again.
Back on the ground, Kairi and her Heartless counterpart stared each other down. "Heh is that how you dress?" Darima snickered. "No wonder all you could attract was that goody goody boy Sora."
"Aw, too bad YOU have to dress like a whore to attract men you huzzy!" Kairi remarked, although secretly jealous that her Hearltess had slightly bigger breasts than her.
"Ha! Tough talk Plain Jain!" Darima sneered. She began to cast blasts of ice at Kairi who ducked and rolled out of the way. Kairi then fired a blast of fire at her, but Darima countered it by firing another blast of ice at her fire.
Ryo slashed at an Invisible and kicked a Goomba out of his way. This was getting out of hand. There was just too many of them. "Light slash!" He yelled as he send a wave of light from his sword and destroyed many Heartless in front of him. Porky suddenly spoke through the communicator in Ryo's pocket.
"I'm sending down reinforcements. Just hold on!" The pig said. Several beams of light came down and out of them appeared the keyblader Lance with his keyblade 'Warrior's Oath', Cloud with his Buster Blade, Lulu with her black magic, Tifa with her fists, Jake in his dragon form, and even the self-centered Daffy(Or.. Duck Dodgers) with a laser pistol.
"Fear not friends!" Daffy declared. "For DUCK DODGERS HAS COME TO save….the…day?" He whimpered as he saw the massive group of Heartless and Koopas that were staring at him. "WAHHH! You didn't tell me there was going to be this many!" He screamed as he ran around the battlefield, firing blasts of blue lasers blindly at the chasing Heartless behind him.
"No backing out now feather brain!" Lance declared in his southern accent. He charged at the Heartless and began hacking at them.
Several Koopas surrounded Lulu. "You've got to be joking." The gothic girl remarked bluntly. "THUNAGA!" Bolts of lightning rained down on the Koopas, electrocuting them and knocking them all out.
"Shocking." A Koopa coughed before passing out.
Jake flew around the sky kicking and blowing fire at the parakoopas and paragoombas. "Who wants some of the Am-Dragon yo!" He asked.
Cloud and Tifa entered the fray slicing and bashing Heartless and Koopa alike. "About time we saw some action huh?" Tifa asked with a laugh. Cloud just grunted in reply as he ran to help Aerith and Silent Bob who were being surrounded by Invisibles. Tifa's anger boiled at this sight and began pounding on the Koopas even harder, taking her anger out on the poor turtle creatures.
Mario jumped up to the roof to help Sora combat his Heartless. "You want some too tubby?" Aros asked laughing.
"Let's-a go!" He declared, readying his mallet. Aros charged and slash down at him, but Mario jumped high above him and landed on his head. Aros staggered and regained his senses. "Okay, so you can jump." He remarked. "But I'm still stronger than either than you!" He declared boastfully and spun his two keyblades.
Sora had to think quick. 'This guy was strong……but he was also stupid.' Sora thought. 'Let's see if he's gullible too.' "Hey Aros! Darima looks like she's in danger!"
"What?!?" He asked worriedly.
"Uh yeah! She's-a in trouble!" Mario added, catching on.
"Oh no!" Aros said spinning around and about to jump into the chaotic battle below him. "Hold on Dar! Im coming to save ya!...Hey! She's not in dang-" As he turned around Mario threw his hammer at him and slammed him right in the face. As he held his face in pain, Sora ran and kicked him right in the chest. Aros screamed as he fell off the roof and landed in a barrel of water, destroying it and slashing water all over the place.
"Aros!" Darima screamed. She ran to his side and helped him up. "Are you okay?"
"Woah, look at all of those neat colors." He laughed.
"idiot." She whispered. The armored general P. Koopa ran to them.
"Most of the Heartless are gone and my men are getting whacked left and right!" He yelled. "How can this get any worse?!?"
"Hey! Look at those neat white ships coming down." Aros still dazed pointed. Darima and P. Koopa looked up to see several white transport ships landing in the square.
"Uh-oh." Darima whimpered when she saw the silver shield logo on the transports. It was the heroic Shining Shields. (A/N: anybody remember these guys?) They opened up and several white armored men and women armed with laser fires charged out of them. Three of them were three of the seven mighty Lieutenants. One was the wise wolf man Lt. Tekkamaru. He was human but with the head of a silver wolf, furry hands, was wearing a green shirt, white jacket and white pants. He had his katana in his hands. The other was the youngest of the lieutenants at 18, Lt. Bishop. He had slicked orange hair, brown eyes, a pari of yellow sunglasses, and wore a white overcoat, white pants, black shoes, and held his thunder staff in his hands. The last one was the ditzy 20 year old Lt. Jessica. She had brown hair in braided pigtails, borwn eyes, and wore a white buttoned shirt with black pants under a white miniskirt and white sneakers. She had a small baton with a heart on top of it.
"Whoah! It's the Shining Shields!" Ryo yelled gleefully, seeing his idols come to the rescue.
"All forces attack!" Lt. Tekkamaru yelled. He dashed at the Heartless with incredible speeds and destroyed several with his katana. The other soldiers obliged by firing blue laser fire at the heartless and Koopa Clan.
"Feh, Fighting's not my style, but oh well." Bishop sighed and began casting barrages of thunder.
"Let's go!" Jessica giggled as she waved her baton and suddenly turned herself into Jake's dragon form, using her special ability. She flew up and helped Jake fight off the aerial Koopas.
"Woah! Talk about dejavu!" Jake exclaimed.
"That's it! We're pulling back!" Darima yelled. "We'll be back Sora!" She, Aros, and the remaining Heartless disappeared.
"Koopa Clan! Retreat!" General P. Koopa ordered. He, along with the rest of the clan ran away from the square and out of the town.
"We did it!" Ryo said cheerfully. Everyone came together to properly thank the Shields.
"Thanks for helping us." Sora said shaking Tekkamaru's hand.
"We were happy to help." He smiled. "We were sent here because of the massive Heartless levels here. After seeing those two human Heartless I can see why. "
Suddenly the other Toads came to cheer them as another person was with them. Unlike the Toads, this woman was as tall as a normal human. She was a beautiful woman with long, curly blonde hair, A small crown on her head, beautiful blue eyes, and red lipstick on her lips. She was wearing a formal pink princess dress, white arm length gloves, and a pendant around her neck.
"Princess Peach!" Mario eclaimed. He and the princess hugged affectionately.
"So that's Princess Peach." Ryo commented.
I would like to thank you all for saving Toad Town from those creatures, and of Bowser's forces."
"Who is this Bowser guy anyay?" Kairi asked.
"Bowser is a cruel and giant Koopa who rules the Koopa Clan. " Peach explained.
"He's-a tried to take over the Mushroom Kingdom for years!" Mario added.
"I fear he may be planning something new with these shadow creatures." Princess Peach said worried.
"Don't worry!" Sora said beating his fist on his chest. "We'll help you out against this Bowser guy and the Heartless!"
"So-a will I!" Mario beamed.
"The Shining Shields were made to vanquish these dark creatures, and that is what we shall do." Lt. Tekkamaru said bowing.
"Hey guys!" Kim called. She, Ron, Donald, goofy, and a new person ran up to them. This new person was similar to Mario, with identical clothing and even identical mustache. But he was much taller and thinner than Mario, and where Mario's clothes were red, his were green, and he had an L on his cap.
"Luigi!" Mario greeted happily.
"Mario! My Brother!" Luigi greeted.
"Brother?" Sora asked.
"Yes, we are the Super Mario Brothers!" Mario declared, both he and Luigi striking poses.
"Yeah. Luigi single handedly defeatedall of those Cybots!" Goofy said.
"Really!" Sora said amazed.
"Really! It was-a nothing! Mostly a fluke!" Luigi said blushing.
"No kidding." Kimm muttered telling them what happened.
Flashback
In the Toad Town docks, the Phantom Syndicate's Cybots ravaged the place with their laser fire. Merchants and fisherman alike creamed in terror and fled.
"Come on! "Let's get these clunkers!" Kim demanded zestfully.
"Gwarsh! What's that green thing up on the roof?" Goofy asked pointing. On the Roof was non other than Luigi, holding a mallet and wearing a yellow cape that made him seem like a super hero.
"Mario! He's here to save us!" A fisherman yelled!" The others cheered too.
"I'm-a not Mario! I'm Luigi!" He declared on the roof.
"..oh." the fisherman replied bluntly. Never mind guys." They then went back to screaming in panic.
"Don't worry! I'll-a get then tin heads!" He prepared to jump off the roof heroically but then his cape tripped him, causing him to fall. He screamed as he fell downward and landed on a skateboard. He screamed even louder as he cruised by the cybots and breakneck speed, bouncing into some and causing some to fall in the ocean docks. He then crashed into one Cybot that caused him to fly into the air only to be caught by the hook of a crane. At the speed he was going, it caused the crane to swing around the docks, his spinning body knocking Cybots left and right. Whent the last cybot was destroyed he was flung from the crane and landed in a crater next to Kim and the others.
"wow. That guy is good." Ron complimented while Kim rolled her eyes.
"Ouch….." Luigi moaned inside the crater.
End of flashback.
Well I want to invite you all to a ball I am holding tonight at the palace." Peach said to them all.
"Ohh! A ball! I've always wanted to go to one!" Kairi beamed picturing the fancy decore and her in an expensive dress.
"I've been to several. They can be fun!" Sara said.
"Hmm, A fancy ball eh?" Jay said to Silent Bob. "This gives me some more ideas to get you hooked up." Silent Bob sighed, wondering if his friend's plans were getting him anywhere.
"So you guys are tying to get him and pinky together?" Tifa asked the two slackers.
"What's it to you?" Jay asked suspiciously.
"Count me in!" Tifa declared with a grin.

Somewhere far from the lush and green Toad Town was a barren wasteland with a large mountain. On this Mountain was the dreaded Koopa Keep. It was a grey colored castle with four main towers in each corner, with a main tower in the center. The smell of brimstone and magma could be smelled. It was the main headquaters of Bowser the Koopa King. In the Throne room lighted by blue flames stood Bower. He was incredibly tall. Taller than Aros or Darima. He seemed to be a combination of a dragon and a turtle because his face was that of a dragon with a pair of horns on his head along with a patch of red hair. He has a green shell with many spikes on the back. Even his large tail had spikes on it. He adorned black armbands, legbands, and even collar that all had spike son him. He was truly an intimidating figure. In front of him was an injured Aros, Darima, and his general, P. Koopa.
"You've got to be kidding me!" Bower growled looking at the viewing screen that showed the victorious heroes heading for Peach's palace. "You attack them with these Heartless things, and I even send a 3 squads of my men and that no-good Plummer Mario and this brat Sora wiped the floor with ya! And then these white bozos show up! I thought you said those Heartless things would do the job!" He demanded, pointing at Darima.
"We underestimated they're power.' Darima calmly explained. "and the Shining Shields appearance was unexpected.
"Well those unexpected guests have 3 whole squadrons in the infirmary!" He roared.
"Hey! Don't take this out on her you over grown lizard!" Aros yelled, summonging his keyblade.
"You wanna piece of me kid?" Bowers growled, smoke steaming out his nose. "Come and get some!"
"Aros!" Darima scolded and held him back. "Let it go. We can't fight with our allies, especially since we have so few." Aros growled but put his keyblade away.
"Ah forget it!" Bowser said calming down. "Because when we get the star rod along with Princess Peach, We'll be taking over this world! Bwa! Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!"
Suddenly Shadow Sora appeared from the Shadows. "Yo! Dr. Eggman got that new robot up and running for us. He said it was on it's way.
"Good." Darima said. Me and Aros are going to check up on Phantom65's progress. She and Aros walked out of the room to find the perverted villain.
"I'm having Squads 12-16 transferred from our outpost at Byanco Hills to here to replace Squads 6-8 who are down. " K. Koopa stated.
"Good! Now then! Let's get the troops ready!" Bowser declared.
Back with Aros and Darima. They walked in silence as they headed for another part of the castle. "You know that was pretty stupid what you pulled back there." She remaked. Aros slumped but then brightened when she pecked him on the cheek. "But thanks.".
KH-KH-KH
Above the world of the Mushroom Kingdom, Alistar's gummi ship, the Dark Heart flew towards the world with it's cloaking device on. It was a good thing they had it on after seeing the large Shining Shields battleship along with it's fleet of Gummi ships flying around it.
"Oh boy. Even the Shields are here boss." Jango commented from the co pilate seat. "Think we should turn back?"
"Nonsense." He replied. "Shields or no, I've been waiting for my remach with Sora and Ryo. Plus my bride is down there. And don't forget, we have a couple of human Heartless that need to be shown who's in charge of our little darkness minions." He began to laugh insanely while PJ and Namine looked at each other worriedly.
KH-KH-KH
Back in the SS Dodgers infirmary. Kat entered and screamed as Phantom64 jumped out of bed. "What are you doing up?!?" she demanded, angered that he surprised her.
"I'm all better now!" He declared, fully dressed in his jumpsuit and shades. "Where are the others?"
"They're already in the Mushroom Kingdom." She answered.
"Egad! I've been out of the story THIS long?!?" He asked. "I must make haste!" He quickly ran out of the door, despite Kat's yelling to come back.
"Hey Skyler." Kronk waved.
"Quicly! We've been out of the main story plot for too long!" He said grabbing Kronk.
"But it's only been two chapters." He stated.
"See! We must hurry! To the teleporting machine!" They ran to the device and Kronk put in the coordinates. Let's rock and roll!" Skyler declared as they were beamed to the suface. "Fear not everyone! Phantom64 and the Kronkinator are back in action!...
That's strange, I don't remember Toad Town being this arid, or empty …..or sandy." They were in fact not in the lush green Toad Town, but a barren dessert with several cactuses.
"Whoops. Must've put a 2 instead of a 6." Kronk stated.
"Oh this is just great!" Skyler moaned. "How come this always happens to us?!? We fight as much as Riku, but do we get girls flocking over us? No! All we get is humorous gags and funny situations like this!" He motioned to the dessert. "why can't I ever have a girl running toward me!" He whined. He suddenly saw a figure running towards them in the dessert. It was a girl who looked about 14, with semi-long brown/black hair. Her eyes were black, and she was wearing a yellow shirt, blue jacket, blue pants, sneakers, and wore a neck bracelet that had a cross on it. In her hand was a light weaver sword with a gold hilt and a red gem in the center of it. Phantom64 looked up at the sky smailing. "You're good." He said giving a thumbs up upwards. He then looked closer at the girl to find out it was none other than his friend Amberwind992, or Pricilla by her friends. "Hey Pricilla! It's been awhile!"
"RUN!" she screamed! Phantom64 then looked behind her to find an army of strange cactus creatures chasing after her.
"Not funny!" Phantom64 screamed upward and began running alongside Pricilla, Kronk running right behind them, and the cactuses behind him. "What the hell have you been up to now?!?" He yelled as they ran.
"I'll tell ya later! Just keep running!" Pricilla yelled back.
"Oh yeah!" Skyler said digging into his utility belt while they ran. "Happy Easter!" He said handing her a chocolate egg.
"Aw! Thanks!" she said sweetly. She then put it in her jacket pocket as they ran away from the cactuses in the ongoing dessert.
"Well be careful what you wish for!" Kronk yelled.
End of Chapter.
Phantom64 There we go! Happy Easter folks!
