Hi again. Sorry for the long wait. Well here's the next chapter. Enjoy.
Deep in the woods
Only one wolf was still standing. The rest of his pack was frozen solid by Dmitri.
"You have seen what kind of power I use." Dmitri said to the pack leader. "Now, give the ice crystal or I'll destroy your precious pack."
The pack leader growled at him.
"You fiend!" He shouted with rage. "I rather die then give you the ice crystal!"
Dmitri laughed.
"Oh, but I'm not gonna kill you." He said. "I'll just kill your mate and your pups right in front of your eyes then kill the rest of them."
Dmitri brought out his Iceblade; he was going to strike the pack leader's mate.
"No!" shouted the pack leader.
Dmitri stopped. He grew a nasty grin.
"Well…" He said.
"All right, you can have it." The pack leader whispered.
"I can't hear you." Dmitri said.
"You can have the ice crystal!" the pack leader shouted with rage.
The pack leader then, howled. A floating ice crystal appeared. It was in the shape of a wolverine. Dmitri grabbed it.
"There, good boy." He said with a nasty grin.
The pack leader felt as though he did the most disgusting thing in his life.
"You know, I was really going to thaw out your pack." Dmitri said. "But, since you gave a hard time, you'll be joining them."
The pack leader couldn't take it. Without thinking, he charged at Dmitri. Nothing would please him more then to tear Dmitri into bits. Dmitri merely slapped the pack leader out of the way, causing the pack leader to hit the ground hard. Dmitri then froze the pack leader into solid ice.
"You wolves are all the same." He said in disgust.
Dmitri looked at the ice crystal in his hand, laughing a little.
"Two down, two more to go." He said.
Dmitri then disappeared.
Ten minuets later, a black wolf came to the area. He looked at all of the frozen wolves. He couldn't believe what just happen. The wolf then walked to the pack leader. He placed his paw on the pack leader's solid ice. The wolf's left eye started glowing, he then howled with all his might. The ice cube the pack leader was in started melting. Soon, the pack leader was out. Shivering, the pack leader looked at his savior.
"You…" He said.
The black wolf grinned at him. He then, thawed out the rest of the pack.
"Is everyone alright?" asked the black wolf.
All of them nodded and thanked the wolf. The pack leader's mate and pups went to him.
"Are you all right my love?" asked the leader's mate.
"I'm alright." said the pack leader, nuzzling his mate. "But…I had no choice but to give the ice crystal to that filthy human just to save all of you."
The pack leader looked down. He was expecting his mate to hit him, but she didn't. She continued nuzzling him.
"It's alright." the pack leader's mate said. "I would've done the same thing."
The black wolf walks to the pack leader.
"Sir, I promise you, that human is gonna be taken care of." said the black wolf.
The pack leader looked at the black wolf.
"Mooneye, I'm afraid that not even you can take down that human." said the pack leader. "He is quite powerful."
Mooneye grinned at him.
"But I won't be doing it alone." He said.
Everyone looked at him, puzzled.
"The Keyblade Master is here. To take down that human and rest of them." Mooneye said. "He's also companied by Balto and Kavik, the sons of Aniu."
All of the wolves' eyes were wide open.
"Are you sure?" asked the pack leader.
Mooneye nodded.
"I saw them with my own eye." He said, winking with his right eye.
The pack leader grinned at him.
"Then that means not all hope is lost."
Sora, Balto, Kavik, Boris, Muk, and Luk followed the raven into the forest. Sora wasn't quite sure what's going on. But if Balto and Kavik trust the raven, then it's ok with him. As they were getting deeper, Balto and Kavik heard howling. A howl for help.
"We're almost there." Balto said.
Sora nodded.
Before they moved in, Balto told Boris, Muk, and Luk to hide.
"Why, Balto?" Luk said. "We want to help."
"I know guys, but I have a bad feeling that this is going to be more dangerous." Balto said. "So I want you guys to hide just to play it safe."
"All right, we'll hide." Boris said. "Just make sure you guys stay in one piece."
Balto nodded and the rest of them continued on. When they finally got there, they saw a human man with long silver hair, wearing a sliver tux with a cape. He was holding a wolf up in the air. Around him was ice cubes with wolves inside. The man looked at Sora and the others. He let go of the wolf and smiled at them.
"Well, well, isn't this a surprise." The man said. "I didn't expect to see you here."
Sora brought out his Keyblade.
"Who are you and what have you done to these wolves?" He said.
"Well, that's no way to greet someone." said the man.
"And that's no way to freeze wolves into ice cubes!" Sora said.
The man looked around him, as though he sees noting wrong.
"It's just my way of doing business." He said.
"Some business." Sora said, angrily. "Who are you?"
"Well, if you must know…Sora." said the man.
Sora's jaw dropped. How did the man know his man? He has never seen the man before. The man could see it in Sora's face.
"Yes, I do know your name." He said. "Queen Cecelia has told me all about you."
Sora looked at the man, tightening the Keyblade in his hands.
"So you're one of Cecelia's subordinates, aren't you?" He said.
The man looked at him, surprised.
"My…how did you know that?" He asked.
Sora grinned at him.
"It's thanks to my friends that I know what Cecelia is up to." He said. "I even know that you're after the ice crystals from the wolf packs."
The man looked at Balto and Kavik. Then he smiled.
"So, you have the power to talk to animals?" the man asked. "Well…so do I."
Sora raised his eyebrows. The man grinned at him.
"That's right, I too have the power." He said. "So don't think you're the only one."
Sora grew inpatient.
"Tell me, who are you?" He said.
The man smirked.
"The name's Dmitri, kid." He said. "And I'm gonna make ice cubes out of you and your furry friends."
Dmitri started floating in midair, little specks of ice was coming out of his hands. Sora had his Keyblade ready. Balto and Kavik bared their teeth. Dmitri smirked at them.
"Let's see how you last." He said.
"Hmm, let's just see how good you are." Kavik said.
Sora started attacking Dmitri. But Dmitri blocked his attack with his Iceblade. He then, started attacking Sora. Balto managed to grab hold of Dmitri's arm with his teeth, stopping him from attacking. Sora started attacking again.
"Ha, Hu, Ha-yuah!" He said.
Dmitri shot some little icicles at Sora, getting him away. He then, drew his attention towards Balto.
"You foul mutt!" He shouted, shooting some icicles at Balto.
Balto hit the ground hard.
"Balto!" Kavik shouted.
Anger was growing inside him.
"Nobody hurts my brother!" Kavik shouted. "Nobody!"
Kavik then charged at Dmitri. Dmitri just waved his hand at him. Then Kavik was trapped in an ice cube, in a charging position. Balto gasped on what he saw.
"Dmitri!" He shouted. "Get him out of there!"
Dmitri laughed.
"Like I'll listen to a mutt like you." He said.
Balto growled at him. He then, charged at Dmitri as well. Dmitri did the same thing of what he did to Kavik. He waved hand, but before anything could happen, Sora attacks him.
"You're not getting Balto as well." He said.
Dmitri was getting angry. He pushed Sora away and freezed his feet. Dmitri did the same thing with Balto. Sora and Balto couldn't move. Sora was about to use fire, but Dmitri freezed his hands as well. Dmitri was panting hard.
"Well…at first, I just fought you guys because I was getting bored." Dmitri said. "But now, you guys are just getting on my last nerve. Time to finish this!"
Dmitri raised his hands. Dozens of little icicles appeared, right in front of him. He aimed them at Sora and Balto. They both closed their eyes. They couldn't believe it was gonna end like this.
Cling, Cling, Cling, Cling.
Sora and Balto heard the icicles hitting something. But they didn't feel anything. They both opened their eyes. Sora couldn't believe who it was. Their savior was the cloaked stranger that Sora met at Gordon's shop.
"You…" He said.
The man looked at Sora.
"I told you I'll be here soon." He said.
The man was holding what appeared to be a Keyblade. But it was different. It was in the shape of a wolf's head, and its tong was the blade. The man aimed his Keyblade at Sora.
"Hold still." He said. "FIRE!"
Fire came out of the tip of the man's Keyblade and melted the ice. Sora was free. The man then, thawed out Balto as well.
"Thanks." Sora said.
The man made a smile. Dmitri was surprised of Sora and Balto's savior. The man looks at Dmitri and grins at him.
"Hello Dmitri." He said. "Thought you wouldn't see me again?"
Dmitri's face was turning red.
"What does it take just to get rid of you?" He shouted.
Dmitri then threw more icicles at them. The man hit every single one with his Keyblade.
"Let's take care of this, Sora." The man said.
Sora stared at the man. He too, knew Sora's name.
"I'll explain later." The man said, quickly.
Then he and Sora started attacking. Dmitri managed to get away from them and brought out dozens of ice-like Heartless.
"Try to beat those." Dmitri said, laughing.
Sora tried to defeat the Heartless, but its body was too solid to break.
"There's only one way." Sora thought.
"FIRE!" He shouted.
The tip of his Keyblade shot out fire, melting the Heartless. He did the same thing with the rest of Heartless. But there were too many of them, and he didn't have enough magic to get them all.
"I know a better way." the man said. "Balto, when I give you the signal. Howl."
Balto didn't understand why the man wants him to howl. But he nodded.
"Sora, place your Keyblade in front of my Wolfblade." The man said.
Sora did what the man told him to do. When his Keyblade got close the Wolfblade, it was like a magnet was pulling the Keyblade and sticking it to the Wolfblade.
"Now, Balto!" the man ordered.
Balto started howling.
"Now Sora, we've got to spin the blades." said the man.
They both spin the two blades. Soon, fire was coming out of both tips of the blades. The fire was spreading all over the blades as it was going faster. Sora didn't feel the fire. Then he noticed something, strange. Both, him and the man were floating in midair. Then Sora and the man let go of the blades. Both were still floating in midair. And so were the two blades. The two fiery blades then, turned into an inferno tornado. Sora and the man then went inside the inferno tornado. They both grabbed their blades and pushed the inferno tornado towards the Heartless. All of the Heartless were melted. Dmitri was petrified with shock.
"H-How…could this be?" He said.
Sora and the man grinned at Dmitri. Both of their blades were still on fire.
"What do think, Dmitri?" Sora asked. "Like our new trick?"
Dmitri growled at him.
"I'm taking you down, once and for all!" He shouted.
Dmitri was about to attack, but Sora and the man attacked him first. After one last blow from Sora, Dmitri was finished. Dmitri was on his knees, gasping for breath.
"I…can't…I…can't" He said. "…be defeated…by…"
Dmitri stops there. He fell to the ground and he disappeared. The only thing left was two ice crystals. Sora and Balto looked at the man.
"Wow, thinks for the help." Sora said.
"No problem." said the man.
The ice cubes started melting. The wolves inside were getting out. Kavik was the first. He shook the remaining ice off of him.
"Man…thought I'd never get out of there." He said shivering.
Kavik looked at the man.
"Can…you…understand me?"
The man nodded.
"Um, excuse me, but who are you?" Sora said.
"I really don't have a name." the man said. "But you can call me Mooneye. Everyone else does."
"Well, thank you, Mooneye." Sora said.
He reached out his hand and Mooneye shook it.
Balto walked up to Mooneye.
"By exactly, how did me howling, manage to do that thing, you and Sora did?" He asked.
"Well…your howling woke up my Wolfblade." Mooneye said. "My Wolfblade gets power from wolves."
"Really, how?" Sora asked.
"It's hard to explain." Mooneye said.
The wolf pack walked up to Sora and Mooneye.
"Thank you both for stopping that human from getting the ice crystal from me." The pack leader said.
"Don't mention it." Sora said.
The pack leader then howled. An ice crystal appeared. It was in the shape of a bear.
"This is for you, Keyblade Master." the pack leader said.
Sora grabbed the ice crystal.
"Thanks." Sora said.
The leader nodded then him and the rest of his pack left.
Balto grabbed the ice crystals that were on the ground and gave them to Sora.
"That just leaves one more." Sora said.
"Well, I better get going." Mooneye said.
"Wait, must you go now?" Sora said.
"There's something I gotta take care of." Mooneye said. "But don't worry, we'll meet again soon."
Mooneye waved good-bye to them and left.
Sora looked at Balto and Kavik.
"Well…let's go get Boris, Muk, and Luk." He said.
