Chapter 4: Awakening of Souls

Location: Hollow Bastion/Radiant Garden

"That was easy…" Yuffie said after she, Tifa, and Aerith detransformed, walking to where the others were.

"The Radiant Garden Restoration Committee strikes again!" cheered Tifa, raising a fist in the air.

Dead Heartless and Nobodies were disappearing on the ground where they have fallen, while some surviving ones were smart enough to retreat to the sky.

"Once again, this world is safe…for now…" noted Aerith, stepping on a Shadow Heartless that disappeared in an instant.

They arrived at Merlin's house, tired but cheerful.

"Something went right for a change," smirked Cid, "We won. You should've seen Leon, Cloud, and Sephiroth work like a well oiled machine to defend this turf."

"Really~" Tifa said as she smirked at Sephiroth, who glared at Cid, "Don't get carried away."

He walked out the wreckage that is Merlin's House and flew off.

"Hold it!"

Cloud tried to follow, but was tripped by Tifa, which resulted in Cloud crashing into a pile of concrete.

"Cloud, grow up will ya?" Leon said, "If that was their first attack, I hate to think that whoever's behind this have planned next…"

…

Location: Twilight Town (Station of Awakening)

Five minutes have passed since Twilight Thorn has appeared in front of the quad of Kairi, Namine, Xion, and Olette, and so far, they haven't been fairing well against the massive Nobody.

"This isn't going well…" moaned Namine, floored by its Nobody Thorn attack.

"Xion!" Olette cried.

"What?!" she shouted back.

"BEHIND YOU!"

Xion turned around sharply. In front of her was a huge shadow the same size and appearance as Twilight Thorn.

"Darkside…" muttered Kairi as she dragged Namine to the others.

The four girls went back to back as Twilight Thorn and Darkside closed in on them from both sides.

"Okay." said Xion, "We're fucked."

"We're gonna be fine." Kairi countered as several orbs locked on to the girls.

"Uh oh." Xion realized as a blinding flash of light suddenly engulfed the girls, and when it ended, the girls found themselves bound in the air with their arms and legs sticking out, their Keyblades gone, and Twilight Thorn and Darkside nowhere to be seen.

"Oh no." moaned Olette, "Where the hell are they?!"

Namine started to whimper, struggling to free herself while Xion was looking around wildly.

Kairi tried to remain calm, but it was difficult when she was feeling the distress of her companions.

Twilight Thorn and Darkside suddenly appeared out of nowhere in front of the girls, who were starting to struggle as the giant Nobody peered at them, deciding to go for Kairi first as it raised its claw the same time Darkside raised its own claws.

"Kairi-chan!"

The claws were about to sandwich Kairi, but Kairi suddenly gave her body one last, forceful jerk and dodged them, making them hit each other and summoning her Kingdom Key at the same time, blasting Twilight Thorn and booting Darkside in their faces.

They backed away as Kairi was back in her original position again.

"Nice one Kairi-chan!" Olette shouted.

But Twilight Thorn was not done; it stretched out its arms and grabbed all the girls, who screamed as they were tossed into the air.

Darkside lunged for them, but they dodged and smashed it in the head, resulting in Darkside landing on Twilight Thorn, who Kairi went after next as she blasted it in the head also, making them both slide over edge as the girls landed hard on top of each other, Namine getting the worse of it.

"That it?" said Olette, dusting herself off, and summoning her Kingdom Key, "Ha! They can't knock us off that easily."

"To tell the truth, that was almost too easy." Kairi muttered, getting off of Namine, who was red all over as she summoned her Kingdom Key.

"No…" Xion whispered as she summoned her Kingdom Key, "It's not over yet."

The girls then slipped backwards as the stage tipped over. They jammed their Keyblades on the ledge as they saw Twilight Thorn perched on the side of the stage, charging up its devastating attack, which was a huge orb of energy.

It leaped off the stage, making the girls fall towards it as Twilight Thorn unleashed its attacks towards them as Darkside appeared behind them, cutting off their escape.

"Throw your Keyblades at the center of its attack!" Namine shouted.

"Are you crazy?!" yelled Olette.

"What about-" Kairi began…

"JUST DO IT!" roared Xion.

They threw their Keyblades towards the core of Twilight Thorn's attack, resulting in an explosion, blowing Twilight Thorn and Darkside away as the girls crashed into another stage in a pile up with Namine getting the worst of it again.

Kairi got up, looked around and said, "I think we got them. They're nowhere in sight."

Olette got up and shook her head as Xion casted Cure on Namine, saying, "Let's hope so."

Then, two crashes sounded right behind the girl, startling them.

"What the hell was that?" groaned Xion as they looked around.

Twilight Thorn and Darkside were starting to get back up.

"God these things just don't die…" said Olette as Twilight Thorn and Darkside were flashing white and black and were moving closer together.

"Uh oh… I think they're fusing." said Xion as the two creatures of Darkness turned into orbs and combined and exploded.

Its new form was huge. Tentacles like dreadlocks stuck out of its head, yellow eyes, huge arms, a muscular abdomen, and strong legs and shoe like feet. It was black with silver markings and purple mist coming out of it body. The Heartless symbol was on its entire back and the Nobody symbol was on its entire front. The creature now known as Dark Twil-thorn gave off a huge roar as it spawned Neoshadows and Dusks out of its symbols.

"You ugly motherf-" Olette started but was stopped by Namine putting her hand on her mouth.

"Well, any good ideas, Kairi-chan?" Xion asked with a disgusted look on her face.

"I'm staying and fighting," Kairi responded, "What about you, Xion-chan?"

"Of course. I'm not gonna turn tail and run like a coward; no matter how big and powerful is it." Xion said, smiling.

"Looks like we agree on something for the first time." Olette said, smirking.

"Olette-chan…" Xion said, blushing.

"Indeed. There's just no way we're backing away from this." Namine said, casting Cura on everyone.

"I highly doubt we'll need this power that the voice was talking about to beat this thing." Olette said, "Teamwork and friendship will help us win this!"

"Don't forget love!" Kairi said, "And together, we'll save our friends and restore our worlds!"

They put their hands in as Kairi said, "So what are we waiting for? LET'S GO!"

They charged at the Neoshadows and Nobodies just as they were surrounded by a light emitting from their Keyblades.

"Now what?!" they moaned as the Unknown voice from earlier spoke it them…

"Keyblader-tachi, I have seen the proof and the strength of your feelings and resolves. That is all the proof I need."

A belt appeared on their waists as a laptop/cell phone looking watch appeared on their wrists and a device in their hands.

"What. Is. This?" said Olette, looking revolted.

They examine their new items closely. Their bracers look like a touchscreen cellphone/laptop computer hybrids with it as long as their wrist with several straps underneath. Their belt had a touchscreen holoprojector in the middle with a metal book folder that holds the cards on the right side and a card reader on the left. It looks like the winged looking cellphone device in their hands fits in the holoprojector on the belt.

"Sugoi." Namine opened the book on her belt and examined it. Inside were cards tucked in the pockets of the book. She took a card out and it made a revving noise. She squeaked as she dropped it, the card landing in the card reader, emitting a soft melody from the belt.

"What is that, a karaoke machine?" Xion joked as Namine bumbled about, trying to turn it off.

Kairi laughed, then said, "Come on. Let's follow her lead."

"What?" Xion's mouth opened in protest as Olette said, "Sounds like fun."

She, Kairi, and Xion opened their books and took out their cards. They read "CHANGE KINGDOM HEARTS" and had a barcode on them with a picture of the symbol of Kingdom Hearts. They put them in their card readers, making the belts emit the same melody as Namine's.

"Now what genius?" grumbled Xion as the Neoshadows and Dusk begun to surround them.

Namine experimented with her bracer punching in numbers until the last three numbers caused it to say in a female voice, "STANDING BY" Startled, she dropped the device that was in her hands and it landed in the middle of her belt, the device saying, "COMPLETE".

Namine clothing suddenly glowed white with the energy of Kingdom Hearts while energy lines started to shape around her whole body.

"Namine-chan?"

"What's going on?"

"I don't know!" Namine wailed as she panicked, her hands running all over her body as she unintentionally pulled a switch on the side of the front of the belt, making it say, "MAKE UP".

A white thin rectangular screen projected out from the belt in front of Namine.

"Ah!" she yelled as the screen came and went through her.

The next moment, she was covered in a soft, tight-fitting white material with a round opaque helmet with a swan-like design covering her face. Her suit has a slim black trim, a miniskirt, her boots called Kingdom Greaves and gloves called Kingdom Gauntlets reaching out to her knees and elbows. Her body area was covered by a thin metal armor called Kingdom Armor that covered her Kingdom Core. A white diamond was crested on her upper chest area.

"What is this?!" she cried as she felt her helmet.

"Cool!" said Olette, "Namine-chan turned into a-!"

"Don't say it…" Kairi interrupted, trying not to laugh her head off, "But if it's the only way to get outta here…"

…

Location: The World That Never Was

"Uh, Lady Maleficent, why are we having the Keybladers we captured fight our Heartless and Nobodies? And it looks like they're protecting the Princess of Hearts too. Won't that deplete our forces?"

"No it won't you great big pile of hairball."

"Then why- OW!"

"Because they're releasing energy. And to protect their dear princesses will strengthen their resolve, which will provide all the delicious energy we need for the merging to be complete."

"Oh… Then how long will this process be completed?"

"Probably in 72 hours…with no interruptions..."

…

Location: Twilight Town (Station of Awakening)

"Not one word you guys-" Kairi threatened.

"Kawaii~!" Namine squealed.

"Namine-chan!" Kairi howled, blushing under her helmet.

Kairi, Xion, and Olette were dressed the same as Namine except Kairi's was pink, Xion's was black, and Olette's was yellow. Their transformation knocked some of the Neoshadows and Dusks away.

"It's tight…" Xion moaned, twisting around, looking at herself.

"Oh I sure you love it." Kairi laughed, eyeing Xion.

"Oh shut up," she countered, "Speak for yourself."

"Nani~?!"

"You know what the difference is between me and you guys?" Olette asked.

"What?" Kairi and Xion said at the same time.

Olette took out her Kingdom Key, saying, "I'm gonna make this look good!"

She then charged at the monsters, taking them out effortlessly.

"Oi!"

Kairi and Xion joined in the fray, plowing through the monsters.

"Chotto matte!"

Namine assisted with magic, clearing house, then joined in the fray as well.

The station was filled with nothing but the sound of Keyblades hitting Heartless and Nobodies as the new heroines finished off the small fry.

"Next!" said Kairi as she pointed her Keyblade at Dark Twil-thorn.

Dark Twil-thorn roared as it began charging up the huge ball of pitch black energy, enough to destroy the station itself.

"All right then! Let's finish it together!" Kairi shouted.

"Right!"

They opened their books and pulled out a card which they inserted into their card readers.

"FULL CHARGE"

Their Keyblades teeth glowed as Dark Twil-thorn fired its attack. The girls slashed it in half, making it explode behind them. They then took out another card and invoked it.

"EXCEED CHARGE"

The Keyblades glowed even brighter as the girls slashed at Dark Twil-thorn, the waves slicing though the air at Dark Twil-thorn.

It howled as the attacks connected; its claws at the place where the attacks connected. The wounds glow as Dark Twil-thorn disappeared in white and black streaks as it exploded, covering the whole station.

Before it hit them, the girls grimace the floor, seeing their faces on it as well as their friends from Radiant Garden: Tifa, Aerith, and Yuffie, as well as several faces in shadows.

When they tried to make sense of this, the voice, now crystal-clear and female sounding, said, "Don't worry, for you are not alone." before they finally whited out.

To be continued…
