Door of twilight
chapter 14
Some not-so evil planes
Do you really think I own any of this, minus my OC's?
(Now it's time to get the romance part of the plot rolling. Bare with me, as I'm vary new at doing anything with romance.)

"Dude, it took use two day's just to get back to the landing point!" Sora yelled as he was able to sit on the couch on the Gummi ship, Kairi sitting next to him. It was true, it had taken two days to get back. About a day to get to the part of the serpents pass. Then half a day for Aerith to learn enough waterbending to make an ice bridge. And then another half day to get back to the landing point. On the bright side, Aerith had picked up on waterbending vary fast.
Riku, not wanting to be stuck listing to Sora tell every thing that happened over again, walked down the hall to his room. He never noticed the almost-evil looking smile on Kairi's face.

Cloud smirked as his Buster Sword went through the gorilla-like Heartless. When the group had checked in with the SEED office, they had found out that Heartless had been every where lately. That part of SEED had been stretched to the limit trying to protect everyone in Twilight Town. SEED wasn't alone in the fight, a group of six vary skilled teens had been helping keep the Heartless away from the main part of town. Apparently one was the champion of some tournament, and another was the runner up. It seemed that while four of the teens helped in fighting the Heartless, the other two help the injured, apparently all the teens knew magic, but those two were the best with cure spells.
After finding out what was going on, Rinoa had quickly said they would help. So they had split up in town to see what they could do. It seemed they didn't have to go far. Cloud had head gun shots, and seen what looked like a thunder spell being used. He had ran into a small group of Heartless, five shadows, and one of the gorilla type. The SEED commander had said that they had been having problems with two types of Heartless. One was the gorilla type, what they called a Blitzes. They other was a ninja type Heartless they called Shadow Slashers.
It hadn't taken long for Cloud to take out the group of Heartless. So he kept going, and eventually came to a place called the Sand Lot. That's were he ran into trouble. Another group of Heartless showed up, twenty shadows, and one Shadow Slasher. The Shadow Slasher was about five feet tall, dressed in a ninja outfit. It had two short swords at its side, on a bunch of trowing weapons.
The normal shadows died rather fast, but the Shadow Slasher was much harder. It was vary fast making it almost impossible for Cloud to hit with his sword. Next, the fact that it could stick to walls didn't help. When it stuck to walls it would start to throw stars and knifes at Cloud. Luckily since Clouds Buster Sword was so big, he could use it as a shield. But still, that wasn't helping him kill it.
Cloud saw the Heartless jump at him from a distance, both swords out. Cloud brought his sword around, trying to slash it in mid-air. The Heartless saw this coming and jumped off the flat side of the Buster Sword. The Heartless landed on the ground, and the rushed Cloud, throwing five ninja stars ahead of him. Cloud planted his sword in the ground to block the stars, but then had to let go of his sword to doge the two short swords.
Now with out a weapon, Cloud backed up trying to get some room. The ninja Heartless, however, wouldn't let this happen. Seeing that Cloud was without a weapon, the Heartless knew that it would do better in close rang. Cloud had to drop to the ground to doge the first sword strikes. He then jumped onto his feet and threw a punch with his left hand. The Heartless brought both swords up to block, but since Cloud's left hand was made of a vary strong metal, the swords just bounced off.
Cloud took this chance to land a solid kick against the Heartless chest. The Heartless then jumped back and sent a few more stars at Cloud. Cloud jumped out of the way, before rushing the Heartless. He was practically on top of the Heartless in two seconds, throwing a fiery of punches. Cloud finished off the Heartless with a powerful punch to the face. He then went over to retrieve his sword.
It was then he heard clapping. Turning, he saw a boy about sixteen standing there. The boy had short blond hair under a black cap. He wore a sleeve-less jacket, black shirt and tan pants. The boy had a scar a crossed his noise, in a way that seemed vary familiar. The boy also had a sword that looked like the hilt of it was an automatic gun. It was then the boy spoke. "Not bad, not bad at all. Most people would had died against such a powerful Heartless. Anyway, what are you doing in my town?"

"So everyone is agreed on what must be done?" A figure in a black rob spoke. There was a total of seven people present, all dressed the same. They were in a room with solid black walls, and all black furnisher. The seven were gathered around a black table, seemingly plotting. Most people would think that this was an evil meeting, but they would be dead wrong. One of the seven people took there hood off to revile... Kairi. "Good, now that thats settled. Oh, and Yuffie why did we have to wear thesis?"
"Because they look really cool!"
Kairi gave a small sigh before continuing to talk. "Okay, we got the basic plane we just need to work out the finer details and were all set. Now I talked it over with the King, and he said he would help us set this up. All we have to do is make sure that Sora, Leon, Donald, Goofy, my self, and the King aren't on the ship, and then the rest of you know what to do." The others, Tifa, Aerith, Rikku, Paine, Yuffie, and Audrey, all nodded their heads.
"Kairi, are you sure this is going to work? Riku doesn't seem to be the type of guy that would fall for something so simple."
The question came from Aerith. Kairi gave a smile before replying. "Ah, you see Riku is always on the look out for some grand scam that will in some way control him. But because this is so simple, I guessing it will work. But if this doesn't work, I'll come up with another plane. But I'm almost sure it will. Now that we got that worked out, I'm going to bed." After hearing this the others looked at the clock, only to find that it was three in the morning. After everyone said there goodnight, they too went to bed.
Kairi smiled before going to sleep, tomorrow they would set the plane it motion.

Riku took a deep breath, trying to relax him self. After his battle with Azula, he had seen who much he had fallen behind in his firebending training. Even though she said she wouldn't hold back, he was almost positive she had. He knew that he'd have to be better next time he fought anyone. So thats why he's in the ships training room at three in the morning.
After a few minutes, Riku begin his training. He jumped in the air, spinning around as he did so, sending blasts of fire from his hands and feet. Each blast hit the target that it had been aimed at. He then formed two burning swords before starting to spin them around with accuracy. Slashing a couple targets, he then jumped in the air, and slammed his foot against the floor, causing a huge pillar of flames to rise up. Riku suddenly felt someone watching him and spun around in that direction. He let out a sigh of relief when he saw that it was just Yuna. "What are you doing here?"
Yuna gave a small shrug before replying. "I couldn't sleep, and I heard someone in here, so I decided to check it out. So what are you doing in here?"
"I was training."
"So what were you training for? I know that we all have to be on edge with the Heartless, but you seem to be training harder then the others."
Riku was slight a moment before he gave an answer. "I guess I was training so the next time I'm in a duel with some who has real skill, I won't just be able to get by. I want to win, I want the Heartless to be destroyed, and I want to make sure that my homes safe for years to come. Thats what I'm training for."
Yuna thought this over a minute. "You were doing firebending right?"
"Yeah, why?"
"Do you think... you could teach me? I want to keep my family, and my world safe to. And I know that if I want to do that, I'll need more then just a few magic spells, and a good shot with a pistol."
"I-I guess I could show you some firebending moves. But I'm going to warn you, it takes a lot of work to perfect this. You also need to have total control over the fire you create, or it will spreed and you might not be able to stop it. Are you sure you want to do this?"
"Yes, I don't want to end up being one of those girls, like in the story's. Were they get captured and have to have someone come and save them. I want to fight with the rest of you, I know what were doing is one of the most important things that we can do right now."
Riku gave a small smile before talking. "Okay, you have the determination to be a firebender, so I'll teach you everything I can. First off one of the most important things is your fighting stance. Try and start off with something like this..."

After talking with the kid, Seifer, Cloud had found out that the SEED commander, had been able to track were the Heartless were coming from. The only problem was that they were coming from a place called the Twilight Caves. The Twilight Caves were well known for being full of branching path ways, but all of them came form three main paths. And because of that, the group had split into three groups.
They had tried to pair people up with someone that would balance that team out. Such as Zell going with Irvine. Zeal was a close range fighter, while Irvine was a long range fighter. Rinoa had been paired with Lulu because they were both magic users and because Lulu was long range fighter, while Rinoa could be a close range fighter with her Keyblade.
So that left him and Quistis. He wasn't sure if they really balanced each other out. Quistis was a mid range fighter, and he was a close range fighter. And no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't shake a nervous feeling. It was like he was looking forwards to, and dreading going into the caves at the same time.
The caves were vary dark and didn't look vary welcoming. For some reason, the caves seemed to remind Cloud of somewhere, but he just couldn't put his finger on it.
Once the group reached the caves, the split off into the smaller teams. Zell and Irvine took the path on the right. Rinoa and Lulu took the path on the left. So, being the only one left, Cloud and Quistis took the middle road.
End chapter
And heres chapter 14. Can anyone guess were the caves remind Cloud of? Anyway, this was going to be a mid week update to help take peoples minds off their homework. (Homework is the work of the devil.) But my Internet keeps going out on me! It have only had the net four out of the last six days! I really hate this system I have, but everyone else in my family loves it.
I'll try and get the next chapter up soon, but I might stop and make a one-shot Kingdom Hearts/Avatar cross over. I seem to be really like doing that lately.
