We were in eighth grade and it was pretty much a beautiful day. There was something wrong with Tremour. He was depressed. He didn't even want to talk to me. He had a darker feeling when I walked past him. I tried to read his mind but all I got was darkness. Tremour was just freaking me out. He didn't want to talk or do anything. He didn't have any expressions on his face or anything. Then one day it got really bad.
We were in our home rooms and Tremour was absent. This was very weird to me since Tremour was never absent from school. I had just earned Destiny Blade and just a few months before I had just discovered and came out of the Kingdom Hearts world. Heartless were the last things on our minds. The bell rang for us to go to our next class. Everyone was pretty tired and they all walked out of their home rooms pretty slowly. I walked slowly myself. I started to sense something, but I couldn't tell what it was. I walked half way down the hall when heartless came out of nowhere. Everyone started to panic. I brought forth Destiny Blade and started slashing at them. Everyone headed to the closest room to them. I stayed out of the rooms and fought a few. I started to apply some karate to fighting with Destiny Blade. I started to do spins and flips. I also started to use fancy poses, not to look good, but to be prepared for the next attack. For example, I would flip and land but go on one knee. This would prepare me for a trip attack. I would spin on the knee and attack low. After defeating the last one, I was about to give the signal for everyone to come out when suddenly I felt a distortion in the air. I turned and a black swirl came out of nowhere. It was a dimension portal. There were little differences then the world portals. Dimension portals take energy to use. World ones don't. Dimension portals don't have a mind of there own either. World portals can, rarely, takes you somewhere you aren't supposed to go.
The one-person that came out that I hoped would never come out. He walked out and I had to gasp with shock. It was Tremour that walked out. I stepped back and sensed where the portal came from, the shadow realm. Heartless love to go there for a vacation or something. Tremour stepped out and I couldn't sense anything but darkness. He was the only one on the team that could do this. Anyone else tried and would get their energy drained. More heartless came out and they stood behind Tremour. They all were normal heartless. I looked at Tremour as the dimensional portal closed.
"So that's where you've been" I said, "The Shadow Realm."
"Yeah." Tremour said. He looked down. He had no emotion to his face. You really couldn't tell what was going through his head. It was too clouded with darkness. I would get a shiver down my spine every time I tried to get into his head. His eyes were completely still. He still stared at the floor. A dark aurora started to surround Tremour. He looked up at me and his eyes were pitch black. Even his white part of his eye was black. I felt like I was looking into the eyes of an alien. The heartless were getting restless. They were starting to shiver more than usual. They were getting desperate.
"So what are you doing here?" I asked him. He wouldn't answer. There was something wrong. I tried to read his mind even more. The heartless started to attack. I gripped Destiny Blade and started to attack the heartless. Tremour just stood there like nothing was happening. I started attacking all the heartless just like before. I got hit quite a few times this time. There were quite a few to fight and the last one wore me out. I tried to catch my breath and used the blade as a cane to hold myself up. Whatever was controlling him, I couldn't get a hold of it. I had no idea how to save him. What was I supposed to do? What was wrong with him?
I tried to catch my breath. I didn't understand why the heartless were stronger that time then the set before. I looked at Tremour. He looked down and he closed his eyes. He started to shut his eyes tightly. With his eyes still tight, he turned his head to the ceiling. I stepped closer to him and suddenly heard a loud scream, but Tremour hadn't moved his lips nor had he even spoke. I closed my ears with my hands and just realized something. That scream was Tremour. He was screaming for help. He was sending a mind message. Apparently, the darkness in him is preventing him to do so.
Now that I know what's going on, I might as well try a little harder to get in. I look around and saw a few students looking through the glass of the classroom doors. I looked at them and they looked at me. I looked at Tremour and he looked at me. I stood up and dismissed the blade. I got into preparation. I focused my eyes into his and ran straight toward him. He didn't move. I stopped right in front of him. He stepped back and I got a mental lock on him. He stopped and he went onto his knees. I then put my hands on his head and tried to go deep into his head. That was the easy part. The hard part is getting the darkness out of his head. I was being transported in a very dark tunnel and it was very hard to see. I pretty much let it carry me to the destination. Sometimes I stall and I would have to put more energy into it and I would go flying again. This tunnel was the mind's tunnel. It was a passage to get into someone's mind or heart.
I made it! I could see Tremour chained to a pitch-black wall. My heart was racing. I knew my eyes in the real world were closed. This looked all too real. I felt like I was in the Matrix. He looked up and saw me. I felt tears go down my face. I landed quickly but smoothly onto the black floor, if it was a floor. I walked up to him and put my hand to his face. It was so cold. He was imprisoned in darkness. I brought forth Destiny Blade. My plan was to let the light be dim at first then gradually get brighter. Tremour had to squint. Once I get him off the chains and out of this drastic place we could move on. I took my blade and tried to slash at the chains and brake it. That didn't work. Then I just took one big slash and pushed on the chain. Dark, black sparks flew from the chains. So that's why he couldn't get out, it took light to brake the chains. I pushed harder and harder and it didn't brake. I stopped and took a step back. I got into a preparation stance. I let the light burn brighter and I took one big jump. I took the blade and slashed it as hard as I could. It wouldn't bust. Destiny Blade was burning brighter then ever before. Why wouldn't it brake?
Back in the real world, all the kids stayed in their rooms. They didn't dare to come out, for fear of disrupting the passage from me to Tremour. The teachers knew that I had some sort of power but didn't know what it was. These teachers I had at this time also served their time in the Crystal Court and all that jazz. So they knew they could trust me. I pretty much wouldn't move until my mind returned to my body. All the kids were getting really nervous. They didn't know what to do. A bunch of heartless came out of nowhere. This could get really bad. If they attacked us while we were connected mentally then I could get stuck in Tremour's head forever. The heartless however didn't attack. It's like they were waiting for something. Maybe they were waiting for Tremour to make a command. Whatever the reason, they were not attacking, that I am thankful for.
The dark room in Tremour's head was so secure. I was surprised that I was able to get in. I stopped for a moment and tried to think of what to do. Tremour looked at me and then the blade.
"I'm sorry Megan. I don't know what came over me." Tremour says. He looked at the chains. "It's over."
"No, it's not." I said looking at Tremour. "I am not going to give up on you. I am not going to let you hang here and fall apart." Tremour shot a glance at me. He couldn't believe that I just said that. He started to get tears in his eyes. He tilted his head down in hopes of having his bangs cover up his eyes. The tears still dropped down his face and I wiped his tears from his face. I grinned at him. We looked into each other's eyes. We gazed into each other, in what seemed like forever. Then the Destiny Blade grew its brightest. Sparks flew again from the chains. I started to understand how to get Tremour out. I looked at Tremour.
"Tremour . . . what did you feel when you were looking at me?"I asked him.
"Love. Faith . . . Like we could do anything. Why?" He answered.
"Before when I was bashing at the chains, I was doing it by physical strength. You can't apply that kind of thing when you're in some ones heart." I said. When you travel into someone's mind long enough, and deep enough, you will eventually get to their heart. That's what I did. Either way, you have to believe and know you can do it. See? So Matrix. I gripped the blade harder. This time I put all that I had into it. Tremour started to transfer his energy into my blade. He screamed and the blade's light got immense. I took my love, faith, and my heart into the attack. The blade went right into chain like a knife in butter. His body was released. He fell and I caught him. I settled him down on the floor, if it was a floor. I turned around and put him on my back. I took one big leap and we were going up. Below us the darkness was fading into a grayish color. I looked forward and there is a lot of light. Tremour and I were blinded for a good minute.
Suddenly we felt being flown backwards and I open my eyes to be surrounded by heartless. We were back in the hallway of the middle school. I looked at Tremour and he looked dizzy. He looked at me. He started to get tears and I too was dizzy. The heartless had enough of this and they started to attack. The Destiny Blade grew a big growing ball of light at the tip of it. I suddenly knew what to do. I took a good grip of Destiny Blade. I stood up and started to sweat. I screamed to the first thing out of my mouth.
"DESTINY BEAM OF LIGHT!" I screamed. A beam came out of the ball of light. It passed through Tremour and destroyed the heartless behind him. I swung The Destiny Blade around in a circle and destroyed all the heartless. The beam disappeared and I fell to the floor on my knees. A few of the teachers came out to see how we were. They checked us both out. Tremour was fine, but I lost a lot of energy using the attack I had used. I passed out.
I found myself lying in the nurse's room, still at the school. Tremour looked at me and I would rather see him than anyone else at the moment. I got up and I looked at Tremour. "You ok?" I ask Tremour.
"I'm fine. You? ..." He replied.
"Good." I said. That day was the one I would never forget. That attack I used will and always be my strongest attack. It changed my life.
There are so many worlds. We believe that they are trying to fuse with us. Because of this, people from other worlds are coming to our world, which will help explain the rest of this part of this story.
The reason Rod wasn't there was because I didn't meet him till ninth grade. That day was interesting but we are not getting to that. Rod first met Tremour and he just about had a cow and he never really liked him. Rod got the hang of him being around. He just never liked being his friend.
Rod was the person, who liked to travel, at least I could assume. He had a friend or two that lived in Japan. He usually goes there when there's a really big heartless brake out also, to visit his friends. That was one hard day in Japan. Heartless were known everywhere and there was not much to it. Rod had just got done talking to his friends and he left to go. Heartless are the worst in Japan. Know one really knows why.
We had a secret base in Japan. We pretty much decided most of our major actions there. We had to tell the base what our major actions were before we acted. However, someone had planned an attack on the base. Junon, from Final Fantasy Seven, appeared fifty miles away, facing our base. The bases 'head honcho' ordered me to go take care of it. However I found that this was the perfect time to send Rod. He was a pro at this kind of thing. He would be able to disable the cannon and get rid of it. I called up Rod and he went along with it.
"Yeah, sure I'll do it. I don't have anything else better to do." Rod said.
"Thanks a lot. I am not going all the way out there when you can take care of it yourself. Thank you so much!" I replied.
"No problem Megan. I'll get on it right away. Bye"
"Bye."
That was one of the quickest calls I ever had. So I had to let Rod go and hope he could negate the thing.
Rod hung up the phone. He flew to Japan where the base was. That like took a day or so. He stood where the base was and pulled out his binoculars and looked out into the horizon. Sure enough, there it was, fifty miles away. Rod headed into the base to get some supplies. He got a backpack and put some supplies in. He was now on his way.
He walked to Junon. A big huge cannon was not far. Rod walked up to the cannon. This thing is huge. He had to find a way to disable the cannon. He pulled out his backpack and started looking at the tools he had brought. He had a whole back pack full of tools. He walked into a control room near the cannon. He took out his Gun Blade. There were a few people inside of the control room. He went behind them, quietly, and took them out by surprise. He sat in one of the seats and took a look at the computers. He started looking in his bag and found the one thing that will disable the cannon. He pulled out a floppy disk and inserted it into the computer. It had a virus in it. He inserted the disk. Suddenly the computer started to malfunction. The lights flashed strangely. The computer smoked and sparks flew. The computer lights then shut off.
"That was easy." Rod says to himself. "I better leave." He took back his floppy disk and the rest of his stuff and he left Junon. On the way he felt a distortion. He looked back at Junon. A portal was forming behind it. He also saw something that he was hoping he wouldn't. He thought he saw me. He was too far away from Junon so he pulled out his binoculars out and had a look. There 'I' was, standing at the top of the cannon. He couldn't believe it. It couldn't have been I, could it? He zoomed his binoculars in more. 'I' walked into the portal. He couldn't believe it. He could only conclude that I had gone to the bad side. The portal swallowed Junon and so was 'I'. He was pretty upset. He headed home.
When he was back at the school the next day, he saw me and he went ballistic. He took me to the gymnasium and he told me what he saw. I told him I was at Tremour's house and I couldn't have been there. He wouldn't believe me. Then I knew whom he was talking about. I had to speak up.
"Rod. You didn't see me. You saw . . . " I started. Rod looked away and saw Tremour. He started to jump to conclusions. He pulled out his Gun Blade and started to slash at Tremour. Tremour started to dodge them rather quickly. I tried to yell at Rod and Tremour to stop. Tremour decided to test Rod by stepping toward me. He stopped thrashing him. Tremour then moved away and he started to slash again. Rod 'amp'd up his game' a little. He slashed a couple of times and did a spin. Right before the blade got Tremour, he stopped the tip of the blade at his throat and the gun started to boot up. Tremour was pretty scared. He knew it only took one shot to kill him. I walked up to Rod and I was just as scared as Tremour. I put my hand on Rod's shoulder.
"It wasn't me you saw. It was Magenta." I said. Rod looked at me in confusion.
"She is my . . . Twin Sister. She is my evil side." I continued. He stopped the boot up of the gun. He stared at me then at Tremour.
"So you didn't go to the dark side and Tremour is not in on it?" Rod asked.
"That's what you thought? The answer is no. I did not go to the dark side. Let me explain . . . " That was when I explained every thing from head to toe. Everything about Magenta was so complicating yet he seemed to get it rather quickly. He looked at me.
"Why didn't you tell me sooner?" Rod asked.
"Because, one, we didn't have time to tell you considering that we just met you just recently. Second, Magenta 99 percent of the time just attacks Megan, so either way we wouldn't have to explain it. Or if she attacked any of our friends there we could explain it then. Third, it's kind of a secret." Tremour said in a smart tone.
"I didn't ask you" Rod said snotty. He looks to me expecting a reply for his question.
"What he said." I said, pointing my thumb at Tremour. If we were in an anime I know that Rod would have an anime water droplet or he would have done an anime fall. Which I knew that was what he was thinking. Rods never forgave me for not telling him, but ever sense, Magenta had been after him as well. Actually, she had been after all my friends but that was beside the point.
