Abyss of Time
Chapter 2 - "Sora, meet Sora."
"EH?!!!!" everyone questioned very loudly (spare Haseo, who just widened his eyes.) "Huh-eh-but-who-what-how?!!" as confusing as this was, Sora summed up everyone's thoughts exactly. They all just stared at the screen, stupefied.
"Hey, who's all there?" asked the teenage Sora. "Huh? Is that...me?!" the Sora jumped back in shock. He was grabbed by two guards and dragged away, kicking out at random at an attempt to escape.
The camera turned to show Roxas' face again. "I'm not sure what exactly is going on, but I'm not sure if that's actually you or not. Even though he has the same appearance and voice as you, I'm not convinced. We're going to conduct a small interrogation. But that's not the main reason why I called. King Mickey is coming to Radiant Garden by the end of this week, he wants to meet with all of us."
"Really? Then why not come here?" Sora asked.
"Well, it's easier for King Mickey to come here; that, and Namine and I can't leave the castle right away, thanks to our...marriage." Roxas blushed at the last part.
Sora chuckled a bit. "Alright, bro. We'll see you soon." With that the screen sounded off a beep as it closed. "So," Sora said, "what were you going to say?"
"Ah!" exclaimed Matsu as he snapped out of his daze. He was stuck in that for a while, being completely baffled. "I don't think it really matters anymore..." Matsu said as his voice trailed off. "Hey! You have a Gummi Ship, right?"
"Well, yeah...bu--"
"Good, I suggest using it. I have a bad feeling that something's gonna happen." As Matsu said this, Katsuki and Haseo looked to him. He looked back and gave them a nod. "Hey, do you guys have a training room here?"
"Yeah, there's one here." Riku replied.
"Can we use it?" Matsu asked.
"Sure, but on one condition." said Sora.
"What's that?"
"Show me how you fight! That was amazing when I fought you, I could hardly keep up!" exclaimed Sora. Everyone busted into laughter, spare for Riku and Haseo. Riku was curious, he saw Sora on the ground when he witnessed the end of the fight, but he didn't know that Sora was losing, he thought he had just fallen down.
When Matsu finally stopped laughing, he faced the four keyblade wielders in front of him. "Sure! Does anyone else want to join. I feel like sparring, do you guys?" he turned to his friends. Katsuki smiled and replied with a "Sure!" while Haseo just nodded.
Kairi grinned as she agreed, after seeing Matsu and Sora fight, she felt a slight distrust against him, but after seeing that the two were becoming friends, even though they were considered enemies just a few minutes ago, she was determined. Riku wanted to test Matsu's power, and Midori didn't want to be the odd one out.

"Pheeew!" whistled Matsu as he looked around the training room. "This is the best training room I've seen! Most of them have holes in them or something, you know?" Everyone chuckled at this a bit. "So," Matsu chimed out loudly, "before we start, I feel like training my magic real fast."
"Me too." replied Katsuki
"Same." said Haseo.
Matsu grinned at this, he turned to Sora and the others. "I'm sorry, but could you get behind some cover, just in case." the others did just that. "Alright, could you summon a Darkside to fight us?"
"Darkside?!" questioned Sora, "Isn't that a little much?"
"Just do it." replied Haseo.
Sora clicked a few buttons, and a virtual Darkside appeared. Matsu glanced back to his friends who both nodded at him. "Graviga." said Haseo as he held the Darkside started to fall. Matsu slid underneath Darkside, "Reflega!" A dome formed over Matsu as the Darkside landed on it. He pointed his hand behind Darkside. "Magnega!" a spinning magnet formed in the air, attracting Darkside's upper body towards it, making it bend backwards. "Stopga!" yelled Katsuki as time stopped. "Aeroga!" said all three as they flew into the sky, doing a front flip, and drop-kicking Darkside in the face. The sudden force of the three made Darkside's upper body bend all of the way back, breaking anything of a spine it had. When time resumed, the Darkside disintegrated. The others just stared on, wondering what just happened.
Matsu rubbed his neck a little, "Okay, that didn't work as planned. Can you summon a Darkside and a Twilight Thorn for us?"
"Both?!" most of the others said.
"Please? Just this last fight, then we'll train you."
"Alright... if you say so..." Sora clicked a few more buttons as a virtual Darkside and Twilight Thorn appeared. The three held out their hands as they summoned their keyblades: Glorious Twilight, Melody, and Haseo's Colossus. Colossus was a large keyblade, it was almost the size of two keyblades and it blue, black, and yellow ax design made it appear as more of a giant ax than a keyblade. Katsuki swung her keyblade at the two giants, "Blizzaga!" a large amount of ice formed over the giants. Haseo ran in and swung his keyblade at the giants, "Firaga." A large wave of fire hit the giants, turning their ice into water and they burned slightly. As the fire still burned, Matsu jumped in the air between the two, aiming one of his palms at each giant. "Thundaga!" Lightning shot out of his palms at the giants and were deeply hurt to the added power because of the water. As Matsu was landing, Katsuki and Haseo launched themselves into the air at the giants. Katsuki slashed her keyblade across Darkside's neck as she spun while Haseo did a double front flip, slicing through Twilight Thorn's head on the first flip.
The others just stared in awe. Not only did they take down Darkside in no time flat, but they took down both Darkside and Twilight Thorn in the same amount of time, if not less! "Well, that should do it! Now, who wants to train?"
/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\
Matsu stared onwards into the starry night. It had been three days since they all left Twilight's Destiny; there were three days until the King was supposed to arrive. He chuckled slightly as he thought back to when they first arrived.
After all of the introductions had been made by the new keybladers. Sora jumped straight onto the topic that interested him most. "Now, where's this other me?"
"Right here." replied a familiar voice, it was the other Sora.
"We made him take a blood and DNA test, a personality test, and a psychological test. The results all matched up with you. Then there's the fact that he has the Ultima Weapon, a keyblade only YOU have Sora. There's no way of denying it. So then, Sora, meet Sora."
This all left everyone at a daze, but it was true, there were now two Sora's. Both Midori and Namine whispered to Kairi later, "Now you can have double the fun, hehehe." Kairi turned a very deep shade of red as she punched both of them.
Matsu sighed at these thoughts. It had been a very long time since he had truly been able to relax. But he was still confused by how he was here. They had theorized that the clock was responsible for this, but did that mean that he was sent into the past too? Suddenly he heard foot steps coming from down the hall.
"Matsu?" called a female voice, "What are you still doing up?" It was Midori.
"Can't sleep. Just too restless to do anything like that."
Matsu thought everyone was asleep; Sora and Kairi were in bed, Riku in his room, Haseo and Katsuki shared a room with Matsu, Roxas and Namine were in their master bedroom, and the teenage Sora was in another room.
"I know what you mean all too well." replied Midori. "Wow, I didn't know the night sky here was so calming."
"Yeah," chuckled Matsu, "I haven't seen this sky before, but you're right, it's very relaxing." Suddenly, Matsu caught glimpse of what looked like a shadow moving before turning into a purple ball of flames, flames that Matsu knew too well. "No, it can't be..."
"What?" asked Midori, raising an eyebrow.
"He's here! Its—ARGH!!!" Matsu suddenly jerked away in pain, holding his head.
"Matsu!! What's wrong, are you okay?!"
"G-go get...So...ra...He...has to—GAH!!!!" Matsu screamed at an extreme volume. This woke several people up as Matsu fell to the ground, unconscious. Haseo was the first on the scene, followed by Katsuki. Then almost everyone else, spare Roxas, Namine, and teen Sora who were all on the other end side of the castle, came to the source of the scream. Katsuki and Kairi gasped at the sight of their friend, while Sora, Riku, and Haseo ran to his side, trying to wake him up.
"What happened?!!" Haseo yelled. If everyone wasn't so concerned with Matsu, everyone would be shocked for Haseo had a deep look of fear and concern on his face. This counted as the first time any of the keybladers from the past had seen the teen use emotion.
"I-I don't know! He just held his head in pain as he told me to get Sora before he passed out."
"Me?" Sora asked, "Why?"
"I don't know, he sounded like he wanted to tell you something..."
Matsu's body made a cough-like sound as blood started to dribble from the corner of his mouth. This sign made Katsuki and Haseo's eyes widen. Their worst fears had been proven as well. He was here too.
"I-I know what's wrong..." said Katsuki.
"What?" replied Kairi, "What's wrong with him?"
"Nevermind that!!" yelled Haseo, "He needs medical attention, NOW!!" Everyone jumped slightly at Haseo's outburst. This was the first time they had seen him use emotion, and it was obvious that this was very serious.
Sora and Riku nodded as they picked up Matsu with Haseo and rushed him to the infirmary. But as they got halfway there, an alarm sounded. "ALERT, UNKNOWN FLYING CRAFT ON COLLISION COURSE WITH CASTLE COURTYARD. PLEASE EVACUATE THE PREMISES." announced a computer voice. They all looked up into the night sky as they saw a burning object diving straight for the courtyard a floor below them.

Author's Notes
Oh no, Matsu's hurt and a unknown vehicle is heading for the castle!! Do you know what's going to happen?! Of course you don't, you'll never know until I update next! I know, I'm evil. MUAHAHAHAHA!!
By the way, if you couldn't tell. Keybladers of the future are way stronger than what others have known to be.
As said in the last chapter, Midori is an OC of Krystal Lily Potter's.
