Strange voice:Previously in the author's note MP and WD7 caged the nobodies(which were all locked up by this point)
WD7: Can I mess up Larexene now?
MP: Yes, But I get the superior. Now you can take half while I put Roxas in a containment unit for Riku to pick up. To think a simple interview turned into this.
(WD7 Uses author magic and turns Larexene into a hag, gives Demyx a buzz cut, turned Leaxus into a weakling, Xigbar into a dook(Computer nerd), and Vexen into a woman since he looked like one to begin with. All effects would be temporary, but sickly amusing to MP and WD7)
MP: Great, now I have to be creative.( Uses author powers to turn Axel pink Marluxia became a baby, Superior gets his hair done in curls and a black frilly gown, Zexion gets dressed in plaid, Xaldin's hair gets tagled and his blades are replaced with noodles, and Luxord gets turned into an orange with eyes and a mouth)
MP: The orange thing was for the fact he turns Sora into a cube and a card during his annoying battle.
Only one review to reply? Well if you want the Journal break, REVIEW OR ELSE!
Tenni: Mainly I replied to you through various PMs so I'm thanking you for review 16 when no one else would.
Chapter 17: Reprise, Reveal and Wrecks!
When they arrived they saw everyone was in the first district.
"Heartless in the second district!" yelled some one. Sora and the gang all braced them selves and charged the doors to see the guard armor was back but it was inversed.
"What the?" said Sora. Riku charged it as his key blade appeared transforming him into Ryx.
"Allow me gentle men." Said a voice and the armor stopped. The boy had appeared.
"Who are you?" asked Donald rudely(Does he ever ask in any other way?)
"Some one who can help. Look we'll talk after this." He said. He assumed battle mode earning a squawk from Donald.
"Heartless!" he squaked.
"No quite." The boy said before his face mask appeared. His eyes glowing orange before becoming the heartless yellow. Sora became Roxas sensing this would be a rough battle. Naminé wasn't paying attention as a dark portal appeared behind her; Nami in full Ansem garb stepped out with a swarm of heartless with Shadow and Ulna.
"Boy, we have unfinished business with your people's babies versus you!" she roared.
"How quaint; an attempt at banter." Said the boy.
She growled ferally and charged him. He blocked her sword with one handand her whip with the other.
"Surely you know attacking even a weak heartless with that much weakness in your heart." He sneered.
Roxas and Ryx were both working on arms, Donald and goofy on legs. Naminé was sending spells at it's head and Walt was charging it's midsection; they were getting no where fast.
"IT's much stronger this time!" said Roxas.
"No FAKE." Snapped Ryx.
"CALM DOWN! FIGHTING WILL GET YOU-BAAHHH!" yelled Donald as he was attacked by a leg/arm.
"I think maybe your more advanced techniques will be of better use!" yelled Walt barely dodging an attack.
"Every one move!" yelled Ryx as he and Roxas charged in twirling strike at the mid section and the whole heartless shattered. Both boys fell down Roxas reverting to Sora first. The heartless boy was at a stalemate with Nami. She saw the key bearers were free and signaled to her heartless who were tying up Donald and Goofy.
"Until next time abomination." She said and retreatred into darkness.
"Until next time." He said reverting to human. Ryx became Riku again and sighed.
'What happened to her?" he wondered. Every time he saw her she was ten times worse!
"You guys need to go. Other worlds are in Peril." He said. He stomped his foot and a portal swirled in the ground. "I need to talk to the lead heartless to see If I can't get some of our forces to help." He said.
"Good luck!" said Sora. The boy smiled and hopped in with it closing behind him.
Nami raged at the cages holding 6 of the 'goodies goodies'.
"The darkness is why you feel so lousy." Said Jasmine.
"Shut up!" snarled Nami.
"So see any good interference places, bro?" asked Serenity looking over the mapped out fate of a particular key bearer.
"Where you can do the least meddling and the most postitive change is right here." He said pointing to a spot a year in the future.
"Fine I wanted to go in here." She said pointing to a closer date.
"Why didn't I see that before. No one will notice you and you'll cause an even better ripple!" said Time smacking him self on the fore head.
"Alright!" she said.
The boy looked around the area.
"I come with the shadows," he began.
"And shy from the light." Finished an old man. He looked almost normal it if hadn't been from his gray irises and bright yellow pupils and where it should have been white. His skin was ash colored his hair an almost white gray; he wore a slate gray garment that looked like a robe with the heartless symbol in red on his back.
"It is good to see you, Shar'roc." (A/N This means Half one in the dialect of the Shadows)
"You too Umbra. Tell me how is Wisp?" he asked as they walked to a gate.
"She is marvelous young one. Her 100th birthday is tomorrow and she will finally be a woman." He said as a proud father does in the realm of darkness.
They entered to a city illuminated by a gray twilight with a gray sky with no sun. Most lights were artificial. Several mothers were grieving by the side walks; especially the lesser heartless mother; their babies being the basic shadow. There were 'scouts', their actual title guards, posted near the entrance incase Ansem should come across their city.
(I'll call the boy Shar'roc since, The boy gets too confusing and his name isn't to be revealed until next chapter)
Shar'roc saw the few younger ones, about 30 or so years old, being held close by both parents. The most guards were near the nursery where most thefts occurred. He walked past that with Umbra and kept heading towards the largest build in the modern city; it was a medieval castle that had technology integrated in it(Much like the one of Hallow Bastion). This was where his business lay.
"May light scorn you." Said Umbra.
"May shadows guard you." Finished Shar'roc. A common far well/good luck saying. Umbra turned off to re-assume his post at the gates. Shar'roc continued on alone. He pushed open the large metallic doors.
"Shadows blessed!" said a tall woman who looked all human. Shadow blessed being the term for beloved. She was almost human save for this one irregularity that she had wings and fangs. She was the Queen of the heartless. Her name; Arabrab. Her pale skin contrasted her Gray and yellow eyes(inversion of Umbra's). She was adorned in a roman dress that was red and black with a heartless crest in gray on the front.
"It is good to see you Shadow Blessed." Said a man. Now he you could tell was a heartless, why? Because he was 10 feet tall, was bulkier than He-Man, Arnold Schwarzenegger when he was Mr. Universe, and Tarzan combined yet proportioned. Plus his eye whites were black and his iris's black; his skin gray, and his hair stood stiffly upwards in a porcupine style and it was bright red. He wore a white shirt with a black vest and black pants. Only the king was allowed to wear white since it represented their greatest enemies. His boots were adorned by silver heartless crests. It's obvious he is the king; Nikoli of the royal shadow house was his name.
"My Lord," said Shar'roc kneeling.
"Any reports upon the kidknappings?" asked the king.
"Yes, it is that heartless wannabe again. He has a human female who commands the heartless almost as if she were one of us, yet she has his arrogance. I have confidence the Key bearers will stop, but at a cost; some of the children will die if we don't interviene and help our other wise enemies. As they say in the light; The enemy of my enemy," he began.
"Is my friend. How many will die?" asked the King.
"100, 000." He said.
"You know we can't walk in light like you." Said the King.
"But you can. Ansem has corrupted the passages so much even a greater heartless like yourself could cross over." He said.
"We will do that once 50,000 have died. No more, no less." He said. 50, 000 was small to their large populace and martyrdom would make the grief less.
"I will continue to fight I nthe realm of light until this is completely resolved." Said Shar'roc.
"Then may the light spite you because I won't." said the King. Shar'roc nodded and opened a portal and bowed before leaving and closing it off. "My son." Said Nikoli.
After a minor Detour in the Deep jungle they then headed to Halloween town.
"There's a vessel persuing us!" yelled Riku looking at the sensors.
"Thgen we need to kick it into high gear!" yelled Sora and they sped up haphazardly heading in one direction losign the other ship at the last second.
"We lost them!" yelled Donald.
"Aw, do you think they left because we're going to crash right into that there world there, Donald?" asked Goofy and all four co-pilots looked forwards and their eyes almost literally bulged from their sockets.
Naminé grabbed Sora's arm and Walt gripped the seat.
They were all bracing for the impact the would throw most of them forwards into one another.
