All three heroes entered the portal, eyes shimmering at the sight in front of them. The land was glorious, various gems were scattered everywhere and shined brightly in the light giving the already beautiful scenery of mountains and lakes a certain... Sparkle.
Siku however, seemed indifferent about the sight and walked forward. "We need to find the Omnigem, it should be in this dimension but its gonna be pretty hard to find among all these other gems..."
Star walked up next to soul with a cocky smirk on her lips, she raised her wand into the air and yelled, "Ultimate Magic Homing Beam!" a bright blue light shot out of stars wand and into the air, arcing downwards and landing on a large mountain about 8 miles from where they were.
Star smiled brightly and Marco rolled his eyes, a smile curving to one side of his face. The three began to walk towards the end of the arc but after a few .invites if walking the sun set over the hills and darkness swept the land. Their steps crunched as they stepped on the gems below their feet, star used her wand as a light source so the trio could at least see their hands in front of their faces.
"We should probably set up camp..." Marco suggested, Siku and Star nodded once and began to set up for the night.
After a few minutes everyone was in a lying down in a sleeping bag around a campfire. "I gotta admit" Marco spoke, "When I said 'set up camp' I didn't mean actually set up camp, I meant like 'Summon a sweet manor with eleven bathrooms'" he admitted making gestures on the air to shape what he was imagining, "but this works too."
Star gave a short giggle and moved her sleeping bag so she was cuddling up against Marco, while Siku sat across from them eyeing the fire to make sure it didn't go out. Marco and later fell asleep facing each other, but Siku kept watching the fire, he listened to the small snaps and pops that came from the burning wood. A quiet laugh echoed from the distance, it was cocky, full of confidence and seemed to come from everywhere at once.
"You're foolish if you think you can get rid of me... I'm a part of you now."
"Even if I can't get rid of you, I know how to control you. There is no situation where you end up winning." Silky said back, pushing aside some embers with a stick.
"You'll snap eventually... And when you do, I will reek havoc across every dimension..."
Siku put down his stick and stood up, he walked away with his hands in his pockets and his keyblade on his back. He kept walking until he was a far enough distance from Star and Marco. From there he sat down and tried to focus on what was happening around him; The of wind blowing past him, the feeling of the ground he was sitting on and the sight of what lay in his peripheral vision.
"I'm always here you know, if you try to get rid of me I'll just come back and haunt you."
Siku ignored the Scourge and continued to meditate. The Scourge just laughed and proceeded to pester him further.
"Just think of what I'll do, destroying homes, killing the innocent... I'm going to have such a wonderful time..."
Siku's teeth clenched and his knuckles cracked. The Scourge was getting to him, trying to make him lose control so it can take over.
"I think I'll leave that butterfly girl alone though... Once I kill everyone else, she'll be forced to live the rest of her life... Alone..."
Siku's pupils dilated and his heart rate quickened, the static around his face was starting to grow, engulfing him...
"No..."
"Yes... And you won't be there for her, because once I've finished... You'll be completely erased from existence..."
"No!" Siku grabbed his head with both hands and willed for the Scourge to leave, but it wouldn't I without a fight.
"Just let me take over... The sooner you give in the faster everyone can die..."
"NO!" Siku tried to think of his fun times as a kid with Star but the Scourge's voice just kept pushing through. The static on his body began to crackle and fizz, getting louder and louder over time.
"Yes... Give in to your rage..."
The static crawled over the rest of Siku's face...
And then everything went white...
