Door of twilight
Chapter 3
Oh man!
(Here is chapter three. Because of school I will not be able to update as fast as I have been. But I will still try and update as much as I can.)
Disclaimer: I do not own anything in this story.
Riku POV
----------------------------------------
I could tell that everyone in the room was thinking the same thing. Shit. At least that was what was going through my mined when I heard the news. Six powerful dark users all of whom will more then likely try and kill Sora, Kairi, and I. Why is it that we can't go one year with out some nut trying to control Kingdom Hearts?
What happened next I should have been expecting. An alarm went off, not just any alarm, the alarm that warns the town that a large group of heartless was heading their way. Why should I have been expecting this you ask? Because every time you get bad news, you get word that some huge army is coming to kill you. That just seems to be how it works when you a Keyblade Master.
I could see that Leon guy take command right away. He started to yell orders to other people in the room. Something about evacuating the main part of town into fall out bunkers. Even before he was done talking, every one was running out the door, to do what ever they had been assigned to do. That just left Sora, Kairi, the King, Donald, Goofy, and me. Of course we weren't going to sit around and let the others have all the fun.
Normal POV
-------------------------------
The Heartless were just out side of town. And there was almost every type of Heartless in existence. So as you would imagine, the people in town were in a mass panic. To try and keep the people under control the members of the restoration committee, the residents of Destiny Island, and the residents of Disney Castle, where teamed up like this. Leon, Tifa, Yuffie, Yuna, Rikku, and Paine would keep most of the Heartless from getting in to the town from the Bailey. Sora, Kairi, the King, Donald, and Goofy would fight the person controlling the Heartless. Aerith, Cid, and Merlin would help the people get to the shelters.
So that was just what Aerith was doing, helping people get to the shelters. Even though Leon and the others were keeping most of the Heartless out of town, there was still more then normal. Because of that the three of them had to be on the look out for large groups of Heartless. Cid had a spear that he could wield with a surprising amount of skill. Merlin could use incredibly powerful magic. As for her self, Aerith had a battle staff that she could handle well, but she was stronger with magic.
The three of them working to gather was a vary good team up. With Cid doing most of the close range battle. Merlin did a lot of long range battle with offensive magic. And Aerith would do a little close range battle, a little offensive magic, and then some defensive and healing magic.
Aerith was just finishing getting the last group of people into a shelter. Looking back she could see Merlin destroy five Neo Shadows with a thunder spell. She could also see Cid taking out a group of Solider Heartless. A couple Shadow Heartless tried to jump her from behind, only to be destroyed by a fire spell.
"Still fighting the darkness?"
That voice nearly caused he heart to stop. Turing around she saw a man with long white hair, wearing all black with red lining. He had a sword that must have been nine feet long at his side. The most noticeable thing about him was that he had one black angel wing on his right side.
He was Sephiroth, the One Winged Angel.
-----------------------------------------------
Instead of going with Sora and the others, Riku had decide to stay in town and make sure every on got to Aerith, Cid, and Merlin safely. After making sure that he didn't miss anyone, he was going to catch up with Sora. Or that was what he was planning to do, until he felt a strong dark force somewhere in town. It was moving around at a vary fast pace, so it was hard to pinpoint a location.
After about five minutes it seemed to stop on one location. Near the fall out shelters. The exact place where every person in town was. With out another thought he turned and ran towards the shelters.
-------------------------------------
Leon and everyone else that went to the Bailey were doing a good job of keeping the Heartless out so far. They had forced the Heartless to back off a little. They seemed to be an almost perfect team. Leon and Paine would jump into the middle of the Heartless, both being vary skilled with swords. After awhile Leon had turned his blade into it's powered up forum, witch meant that his sword was now twice as long and the blade was pure energy. At the same time Paine, while not having a powered up sword, was just as deadly with her sword.
Tifa and Yuna made a good team-up too. Tifa would pound the Heartless with her fists, witch as she has shown before, is just as deadly as a sword. Yuna would use her pistols picking off heartless that Tifa couldn't get to. Yuna would make sure and look for any spell casting Heartless, knowing that they could case the most trouble.
Finally Yuffie and Rikku made an, odd, yet effective team. Yuffie would throw shuriken and kunai at Heartless, while at the same time jumping around so they could not strike back. Rikku having only her pair of daggers lacked physical strength, but was the only one there that was as fast as Yuffie. She was not only fast, but had a lot of skill with her daggers, and that made a deadly combination. She would lung in between the Heartless, slashing and jumping around, causing a lot of destruction.
"Hey Squall," Yuffie yelled as she jumped around sending a few kunai at the Heartless. "You're starting to slow down. What's the Problem?"
"That's Leon!" The gunblade master replied before lifting his powered up sword into the air. He held it over his head and the beam of energy grew longer and wider. It was now about thirty feet long, and ten feet wide.
"Blasting Zone"
With a yell Leon brought the huge sword down on the Heartless, destroying a large group of them instantly. As soon as the attack was over his sword retuned to normal.
After seeing Leon use one of his Limit Breaks, Yuffie decided to not bother him as much and retuned to her own fight. Taking her huge shuriken off her back she through it as hard as she could and watched it slice thru the Heartless, before coming back to her like a boomerang.
------------------------------------
Sora and the others with him were getting sick of all these Heartless. They were heading towards the Dark Depths, but hadn't even made it half way to the Great Maw. Every time they would try and move forwards, they would be blocked by lager more Heartless.
It was mostly Large Bodies, Defenders who had just shown back up, and a new type called Blitzer. A Blitzer was a gorilla like Heartless with full body armor. They carried huge chain guns, but what was scarier about them was the fact that a battle axe was coming out the other end of their chain gun.
Sora, seeing that they would be here forever if they kept going like this, decided it was time for a team limit. "Hey Donald, Goofy how about we take these guys out!" Donald knew what Sora had in mind, and grinned at the idea. Goofy also knew what was coming.
"Trinity Limit"
With that, chaos erupted. Sora started to pound the Heartless non-stop. At the same time Donald and Goofy were attacking full force. After a minute the three of them jumped back and put their weapons together. There was a blinding flash of light and when it cleared, most of the Heartless around them were gone.
"Gosh, good work guys." The King spoke up. "But we need to keep moving, so let's go."
---------------------
When Riku got close to the shelter area, he felt the dark energy move to a new location. But he decided to check out the shelters anyway. When he got there he saw Cid and Merlin lying on the ground. Cid had a long gash a crossed his chest, and Merlin's beard was burnt.
He could tell that Cid was fine. How could he tell you ask? Cid was cursing. "Damn that no good little son of a bitch. If I ever get my hands on him I'll-." Let just say that he went on to say every curs word there was at lest three times.
Seeing as how talking to Cid was out of the question, Riku turned to Merlin for some answers.
"Okay Merlin, What happened here, and why is just your beard burnt?" It was odd, Merlin's beard was burnt about half way to his face. But every thing ells on him was just fine.
Merlin cast a heal spell on himself and Cid before replying. "Ah, yes, it would seem that Sephiroth is back. What's worse is that he seems to have taken Aerith hostage. And the reason that Cid and I are like this is because we tried to fight back against him."
"You seem vary calm, considering one of your friends was just taken by a psychopath." Riku replied as he raised one eye brow, while looking at Merlin. Riku thought the old guy had been hit in the head, because if Kairi had been taken, hell He and Sora would be beating there way to here with their Keybaldes.
"Well you see it like this." Merlin spoke up. "If Sephiroth wanted Aerith dead he would have killed here. But he kidnapped her instead. That makes me think that he wants to use her as leverage."
Ok, that made senses but why would he choice her? That was Riku's thought. He could see that Merlin was about to say something agin.
"Now, Riku I have a plane on how we can help Aerith. Sephiroth probably wants to use her to make it so Sora, the King, and everyone can't attack him with out hurting her. Now I have a spell that may make this easier, but I need you to be ready to attack fast, and hold him off long enough for me to grab Aerith."
Riku didn't know why but he had a feeling that this wasn't going to end well.
