World of Swords
Six years ago
A mask flies up to a giant demon with long horns, wings and four arms before he gives out a cry. Unknown to even him a dark shadow is drawing a stream of black light from the demon and into an orb. When the light from the magical mask fades the cry ends. Where the light was is the demon who had turned into stone. A moment or two later a young man with brown spiky hair and wilding a magical sword deals out the final blow to the demon turned into stone. The dark shadow teleports via dark portal.
Present day
The young man who dealt the final blow to the demon now has a daughter who's five years old. He also have risen to the title The Great Lord. They are now out in a place called Secace Seacove for a part of the girl's daily training. The daughter with a magic staff and a sword. The man with just a sword.
"All done," chirps the girl after killing the last monster in the passageway with a bit of magic.
"Good," comments the man. "Let's keep going, Dagger."
"Way ahead of you, Dad," responds Dagger already walking further into the caves. They keep walking deeper into the tunnels until they see something black with horns leaning against the wall, heaving with each breath.
"Excuse me, are you alright?" asks Dagger taking a few steps towards the figure hunched over against the wall.
"I'll be fine child," heaves the figure. "I'm looking for someone named, Hero."
"That's me," answers the man walking past his daughter and to the front of the figure to crouch down."Who are you? What do you want?" The figure suddenly stands up and throws an orb with black light in it at Hero. Hero jumps up and instinctively slashes the orb with his sword. Instead of being deflected like Hero thought, it shatters and the light flows into Hero's chest. Hero stumbles back and Dagger eases him into a sitting position.
"W-what did... you do... to me?" chokes Hero.
"Oh, just an acquaintance of yours needed some help recovering to full power," says the figure. "So I put him in your heart to finish resting. He'll also take all your energy from you to speed up his return." The figure then opens a dark portal and leaves.
"Dagger, go get help," instructs Hero snapping his daughter out of her fear inflected trance. "Get grampa or anyone else that I told you that I fought along with when I fought, The Death Bringer. If anyone else asks what happened here tell them that I took an enemy's attack and need help." The girl quickly runs out of the cave and went into town to get help for her father.
Three hours later with Princess Hi and her teammates
The three cloaked keybladers lands on a beach and immediately see some heartless go into a cave next to the beach. They rush towards the opening of the cave.
Inside the three friends sees a man with black short hair and a little girl with brown curly hair fighting a couple of heartless. The three keybladers runs up as they're summoning their keyblades. In no time the heartless were defeated. The five people turns towards each other.
"Thank you for your assistance," says the man. "I'm, King Anlace, and this is, Dagger."
"It was nothing, Your Majesty," responds Princess Hi as she and her teammates bowed in the same manner they did for King Arther on the first world they were in. "I'm, Himoxy, this is, Leopan, and, Igneous."
"I am pleased to meet you," says King Anlace. "Would you care to accompany us back to town."
"Lead the way," replies Igneous as the three keybladers steps to the side. King Anlace and Dagger walks past them and on their way with Princess Hi and her group following. They did not speak until they are out of the cave.
"What were those weapons you used back there?" asks Dagger. "You bring them out of nowhere."
"Those were our keyblades," answers Leopan. "We summon them with our hearts."
"And you use both magic and physical attacks with those," says King Anlace.
"Yup," chirps in Igneous.
"You said that all three of your weapons are called keyblades," says Dagger. "But each one of your keyblades are different from each other's."
"That's because keyblades mirrors their wielder's hearts," Princess Hi. "And a keyblade can do more then physical and magical attacks once its wielder unlocks its abilities and their own."
"Oh," exclaims Dagger. "Where did you get yours?"
"Wielders don't get to choose the keyblades," exclaims Leopan. "The keyblades are the ones that chooses their wielders."
"Oh," sighs Dagger, disappointed. Princess Hi sees this and places a hand on Dagger's shoulder.
"The only requirement for a keyblade wielder that we know about is a strong heart," states Princess Hi. "So if you already have a strong heart or trained up your heart then you can stand a chance of being one of us." Dagger brightens up at this.
"We're here," announces King Anlace. The keybladers looks up to see that they've stopped in front of a huge double door gate.
"Open up, it's your king!" calls King Anlace. The second he said those words the doors are opening. Peeking through they can see that it is a knight who is doing it.
"Welcome back, Your Majesty, and, Young Great Lady," greets the knight. "How is, The Great Lord, Hero?"
"Not too bad," answers King Anlace. "The damage he took for, Dagger, isn't life threatening. Fleurette is healing him now."
"Hey, Anlace, Dagger!" calls a voice coming from behind the group. A tall man with brown hair with patches of gray comes running towards them.
"We need to talk to you two," says the man to the two local worlders.
"Yes, we're coming," replies King Anlace. "I also would like to speak with you too." then King Anlace turn to the keybladers.
"We must part ways here," he says. "Please, look around town and feel free to join the festivities around the palace."
"OK," smiles Igneous. King Anlace and Dagger walks away into the direction the man came from. The keybladers walks through the gates and looks on in awe at what they see. The town is a big one that surrounds a castle and a very tall tower.
"Well we'll need somewhere to stay until we're done here," states Leopan. Princess Hi and Igneous nods in agreement. They managed to find a person to ask for directions and are on their way.
Ten minutes later they've found an inn and princess Hi had just entered her room. They got two rooms so that Princess Hi can have her privacy. Princess Hi puts her cloak in her backpack. Then she looks at her time piece, which every keyblader wears nowadays. Time passes quickly while traveling through the universe so the time pieces keeps perfect time and date no matter what. It says that it's one o'clock the day after they left Olympus Colosseum. No wonder she feels hungry. All she had along the way was the food rations they brought. So she closed her eyes and concentrated on linking her heart with the other two keybladers.
"Yo, Igneous, here," says the cheerful voice of Igneous' heart.
"What is up, Hi," says the straight-to-the-point voice of Leopan's heart.
"Want to go into town and grab something to eat?" asks Princess Hi through her heart.
"Sure," "OK," replies the other two. They meet out in the hall in front of their rooms and walks outside.
"We shouldn't need our cloaks for just walking around town so I'll leave mine in my room," says Princess Hi.
"We're doing the same," responds Leopan and Igneous.
Thirteen minutes later the three are enjoying the festival. They ate chicken drumsticks and now don't feel very hungry. Suddenly a loud voice blares out through the megaphones on top of a tower that's as high as the huts.
"Will the keybladers known as, Himoxie, Leopan, and, Igneous, please head to the town gates," it said.
"Himoxy, Leopan, and, Igneous, head to the town gates. Thank you."
"Hey, Hi," says Igneous. "Use your power to see what's going on at the gates." Princess Hi concentrates for a moment.
"It's, Dagger," replies Princess Hi. "Her heart says that she's frantic."
"Well we better get a move on," says Igneous as he speeds up. Princess Hi and Leopan speeds up their walking too.
Two minutes later they are in front of Dagger who's standing in the open gateway.
"We're here, Dagger," says Princess Hi. "What do you want to talk to us about?"
"Come with me," responds Dagger as she pulls Princess Hi with her. The other two keybladers follows them.
They've walked deep into a glades in order to reach a hut. Dagger only paused to open the door before dragging Princess Hi through the hut and into a room to the side. The room Dagger dragged Princess Hi into is a bedroom with Hero on the only bed in it. A woman with curly blond hair is there kneeling beside the bed casting a spell over Hero every once in a while. The tall man is knelling on Hero's other side holding his hand. King Anlace is standing against the wall leaning on it. Everyone looks up as Dagger drags Princess Hi in, followed by the other two keybladers.
"Thank the Goddess you've found them," says King Anlace as he walks towards Princess Hi. "Some creature put a being into our friend's heart and now he's getting weaker with each passing minute. Also, the healer we took into confidence into secretly helping him, who's the hero of the world, can't keep him alive for forever. So that's why we sent for you. Swordmaster Claymore here was taught about all types of swords. He was the one who told us that you are our only hope of getting whatever that creature put in our friend out."
"Well, whatever it is is very strong and dark," exclaims Leopan from the doorway. "We can sense it from over here." Princess Hi walks up to the blond woman.
"You can go sit down and rest now," Princess Hi says to her. She nods and moves to a chair in the room and sits down on it. Princess Hi stands where the woman was kneeling and transforms into Goddess Form holding her original keyblade. She floats in the air so that she can point her keyblade at Hero's heart.
"This is going to hurt as I pull the evil heart from yours," warns Princess Hi. Hero and Swordmaster Claymore grips each other's hands tighter, Hero gives a weak nod as the signal that he's ready and Princess Hi shoots a beam of light into Hero's chest. The instant the beam entered his chest Hero's back arches up and he yells in pain (A/N: think of the scene where Vanitas was created). Everyone but the other two keybladers jumps or leans forwards calling out his name. The instant the light fades Hero's body settles back down on the bed and a black ball of light floats up from his chest. Princess Hi dismisses her keyblade and grabs it with one of her hands. Suddenly the mask that was used in the battle six years ago floats down through the roof and into Princess Hi's other hand. She presses the ball of black light and the mask together and the ball of light seeps into the mask.
"Dagger, take this mask from me please," says Princess Hi. "The evil heart is now inside that mask." Dagger does what she said and Princess Hi re-summons her keyblade. She then casts Curagala on both Hero and the blond woman, a spell that will heal anyone she chooses to their fullest HP and MP. One that she created during her free time in training. After that she floats back to the floor as she dismisses Goddess Form and her keyblade.
"That was incredible, Himoxie," exclaims King Anlace. "You are a Goddess send."
"Thank you miss," says Hero as he stands up from the bed.
"Excuse me, but how did you get that mask to appear?" asks the blond woman. "Last I saw it it was destroyed in a pit of lava. And why that mask?"
"I'll answer those questions on the way back to town," responds Princess Hi as she walks out of the room.
"Of course," replies King Anlace as he and the others follows her. "Once we get there you three are welcomed to celebrate the rest of the festival with us at the palace. As a thank you for saving our close friend from what ever it was that was in his heart."
Once they all stepped outside Princess Hi starts explaining.
"To answer your first question, I asked your world where I can put the evil heart," begins Princess Hi. "One of my abilities are to talk with my heart to other living things' hearts. To answer your other question, your world said that that mask is the only thing that can contain this certain heart." The local worlders exchanges worried looks.
"OK what's up?" asks Igneous.
"They know that the evil heart I pulled from there friend is a demon named, Xiphos, The Death Bringer," says Princess Hi.
"We had our hunches," responds Swordmaster Claymore. "You just put the last piece into our little puzzle of clues." They begin to tell the story of their fight with Xiphos (A/N: play the game for their story). While they are telling their story Hero introduces himself and the blond woman introduces herself as Fleurette. By the time they are done telling their story the group are half way between the gates and the entrance to the glades.
"So Himoxie lass," says Swordmast Claymore. "Is Xiphos sealed in that mask for good?"
"As long as the mask is whole then yes," answers Princess Hi.
"Then we'll put it in one of the castle's magic safes," says King Anlace.
A little while later The group is in the royal vault in front of a safe in the castle. The safe has no lock and no handle.
"The only way to open this safe is with magic," explains King Anlace. He places his hands on the door and it glowed with a golden light for a few seconds before opening on its own. Dagger places the mask into the safe and with some magic from King Anlace the door to the safe closes.
"Shall we give this safe a little extra security?" Princess Hi says to her teammates.
"For the balance in this world we will have to," replies Leopan. All three of the keybladers raises their keyblades and fires three separate beams at the door of the safe. Now the safe door has a shine on it with three key holes in it.
"We also have locked the door to the safe," explains Princess Hi to the confused local worlders. "The new lock can only be opened by the unlocking beams of three keyblades."
"I thought I heard someone come into the castle," says a female voice from the entrance to the vault. The group turns and sees a woman in a white dress with long brown hair and a tall white hat with a gold cross on it on her head. King Anlace introduces her as Ministress Curtana l. Ministress Curtana is King Anlace's mother and was queen before King Anlace came of age. While they are passing through the throne room Ministress Curtana stops in front of Princess Hi.
While they are walking to the front hall where the upper class is celebrating the festival they never noticed an extra shadow that's been following them since they left the glades. The shadow teleports out of the world.
"May I have a closer look at your pendent please?" she asks. Princess Hi handed her the pendent King Sora and Queen Kairi gave her when she left for the journey, keeping the rest of it around her neck. Ministress Curtana gasps and put a hand over her mouth.
"Mother, what is it?" King Anlace asks in alarm.
"It seems that she didn't tell you her complete name," responds Ministress Curtana. "This pendent is a symbol that she is either a queen or a princess." All the rest of the local worlders jumps in shock. Princess Hi just closed her eyes and smiles.
"Well, it seems that we are in front of this world's Multi-World Knowledge person," says Princess Hi as she sets down her backpack, then she speaks to Leopan. "We can tell the rest of our story now." Leopan nods and takes off his backpack.
"We apologize for keeping secrets from you," says Princess Hi as she puts on her tiara. "But for my safety and those of the people close to me I had to conceal my true identity. My real name is Princess Hi of the world The Radiant Garden." By this time Leopan has his sash in place.
"My title is Lord Leopan of the same world she is the princess of," says Leopan.
"Well I can understand why you are hiding this from us," says Swordmaster Claymore. "Although it still is a shock the moment you had revealed all this to us."
"That is true," agrees King Anlace. "But that springs up questions about you knowing all this, Mother."
"You remember me telling you a story about the world that split into countless worlds, Anlace?" asks Ministress Curtana, King Anlace nods. "It's true. The proof are yours and hers pendents being similar." King Anlace holds both Princess Hi's and his pendents next to each other. True to her words the only difference is the design and gems.
"The only way your two pendents are similar is because our world and hers are connected, as if they were once part of one big world," continues Ministress Curtana. "How I know all of this is because Minister Misericord told me when I had stepped down. In the event that the worlds will become one again someday only the wisest person is aloud to know about there being more worlds then their own."
"Well, that clears up a lot of our questions," says Fleurette. During Ministress Curtana's explanation Princess Hi at draped her cloak over her sweat pants shorts and made it into a skirt.
"Shall we join the other high class citizens," says Princess Hi. "Or do you still want to waste time standing here chatting." The other gives a light chuckle as they enter through the door to the main hall.
During the celebration Ministress Curtana approaches Princess Hi.
"I have a guest room ready for each of you," she says.
"That's very kind of you," replies Princess Hi. "But we've found a place at the inn."
"Not any more," says Ministress Curtana in a sing sang voice as she walks off.
"Now you're in for it," says a small voice. Princess Hi looks down to see the little prince that was introduced to her as Rapier. Who is King Anlace and Queen Sai's son.
"Grandmother wanted my parents to have a daughter, but they stopped after Mother gave birth to me," explains Rapier. "She didn't just loose a loved one, but also a chance at a granddaughter. Someone to pass down her female things she had as a child."
"I'm sure I can handle myself, Prince Rapier," responds Princess Hi. "My condolences for your mother."
"No need," sighs Prince Rapier. "I only know mother through Grandmother's stories."
When the sun finally began to set the high class people files out of the palace. Dagger and Rapier sparred with each other while the grownups talked. When it got dark it was time for Dagger and Rapier to go to bed. Princess Hi told them about their adventure in United Camelot as a bedtime story. Once the kids are asleep the grown ups turns in as well.
That night in the vault Maleficent walks in through a dark portal. Three beams of light shoots out of her staff at the door to the safe. The shine in the door disappears. Then she put her hand on the door and with some magic the door opens. Maleficent takes the mask out of the safe, puts in on the floor of the vault and with a swing of her staff the mask breaks in two. The ball of black light that Princess Hi put into the mask floats up and forms the four armed demon that was defeated six years ago. Except he's the size of a grown man and breathing heavily.
"Now that you have some strength you can now fulfill your part of the bargain," says Maleficent. "I nurse you to be strong enough to be able to get strong on your own, in exchange for a piece of your power. Or do you want me to take it all away from you for myself."
"Tell me what to do... to give you... the power sample," pants Xiphos. After giving her the power sample Maleficent opens a dark portal.
"That portal leads to the site of your old palace," explains Maleficent. "My magic has already started rebuilding it. I shall return when you've succeeded in taking over this world to give you a gift." Xiphos steps through the dark portal and Maleficent disappears into the shadows.
In the morning Princess Hi arrives in the castle dinning room to see all her other friends already there. Everyone except Ministress Curtana. Princess Hi's wearing a different set of a traveling outfit and her tiara.
"Where's Ministress Curtana?" asks Princess Hi as she sits at one of the two empty places at the table.
"I think I know," replies Prince Rapier with a grin. "Royal storage room."
"Oh Hi!" calls Ministress Curtana's voice from down a hallway. "Where are you?!"
"I am in the dinning room!" calls back Princess Hi. Ministress Curtana strides into the dinning room carrying several jewelry boxes. A servant follows her carrying many dresses.
"I brought out all of my old dresses and jewelry to give to you," says Ministress Curtana as she sets the jewelry boxes on the table next to Princess Hi. "After breakfast you must try on all of these dresses."
"Mother, didn't you have a different body then Princess Hi's when you were her age?" says King Anlace.
"Oh, your right," replies Ministress Curtana and she orders the servant to put the dresses back in the royal storage room.
"That's OK," says Princess Hi as she puts the jewelry boxes in her backpack. "Thank you for the jewelry."
After breakfast the keybladers are with their local worlder friends in the front hallway of the castle. The keybladers have just putting on their cloaks without the hoods to go out searching for Maleficent when Colonel Cutlass come running up to them.
"Excuse me, I have urgent news," says Colonel Cutlass. "The royal vault and magic safe has been broken into. The Rorrim Mask has also been broken." Everyone gasps.
"That's impossible," comments Fleurette.
"Is the enchantment on the vault ready for viewing?" asks King Anlace.
"The castle magician is getting it set up now," answers Colonel Cutlass then he turns around. "Follow me." That's what everyone did.
In the royal vault a lady is there. King Anlace introduces her as Lady Saber.
"Please stand near the wall," says Lady Saber. "And let's begin." They do that and a bubble expands from the middle of the vault and keeps growing until it filled the vault. Then an image of Maleficent enters the scene as she did in real life.
"Pause the image," Dagger suddenly commands. The image freezes and Dagger turns towards her father.
"That's the one we saw in the cave, Dad," she says.
"You're right," agrees Hero.
"That's Maleficent," says Princess Hi. "She's the one we are chasing." Leopan and Igneous nods in affirmative.
"Keep going," orders King Anlace. The images plays out the rest of the events that took place the night before. When the images of Maleficent and Xiphos left the entire thing fades.
"Well that only rises another question," says Swordmaster Claymore. "Like, how did she shoot unlocking beams of a keyblade from her staff?"
"I know how to find out the answer to that," states Princess Hi pulling out her communicator star shard. She activates it and puts it in front of the inside of the door to the vault. An image of King Sora appears from the star shard. One look at Princess Hi's serious face and he's worried.
"Hi, what's wrong?" asks King Sora. Princess Hi explains everything that happened since they landed on the world.
"So I called you to see how Maleficent got the power of a keyblade," finishes Princess Hi.
"Well, there is a possibility which is being looked into now," responds King Sora. "Pupa Ningyo raised the alarm at The World of Keyblade Knowledge last night. He ran into Maleficent after telling the students to turn off their lights. He said that after bumping into Maleficent he blacked out for some reason. After coming to he immediately checked up on the students, which are fine. Then he raised the alarm. I've sent some of The Radiant Garden Musketeers their to search the place, and Namine to look into Pupa's memories. It turns out that that's all of that is true."
"Thanks for the help," says Princess Hi.
"Hi, anytime you need my help, you know you can always count on me and anyone else here," says King Sora. "Call me when you're done with this war."
"Of course, Father," responds Princess Hi. She turns off The Communicator Star Shard and put it away. She then turns to her local worlder friends.
"King Anlace, take the warriors that fought Xiphos last time and patrol outside of town," she instructs. "Ministress Curtana, take the kids and take them somewhere safe and stay with them. Queen Sai, go alert the town people, tell them what's happening and for them to get to somewhere safe and stay with them. You'll be in charge of them. Me, Leopan and Igneous will join the front line when we're done. Lady Saber, tell all the magic users to get all the healing equipment they could find and set up a place for wounded. Colonel Cutlass, get your soldiers and help Queen Sai get the people to safety. You'll have to protect them. I'll use my ability to find you once all this is over. Now go!" as everyone files out Ministress Curtana picks up the broken mask and hands it to Princess Hi.
"There is a way to repair The Rorrim Mask," says Ministress Curtana. "I'll lead you to the tower entrance."
Once they are in front of the entrance to the tower in the throne room Ministress Curtana continues talking.
"It's here," she says. "Go to the top floor and through the mirror there. It serves as a portal to The Mirror World. Draug, the guardian there will be able to repair the mask." The key bladers nods and summons their keyblade riders.
"Let's go!" commands Princess Hi. "We don't have a moment to loose." They blast off through the door and up the tower.
It took a very short amount of time to reach the top. Shorter then it would have taken if they walked or ran. That's the benefit of having a keyblade rider. They used the lasers on their keyblade riders to shoot the enemies that got in the way. When they got to the top they fly through the mirror in a single file.
In no time they've entered The Mirror World. They dismiss their keyblade riders when they've exited the portal. They continue on foot until they reach a dead end. The only thing there is a giant stone statue, it reminds the keybladers of the statues in Olympus Colosseum.
"I see nobody," comments Leopan.
"Hello, Draug, are you there?!" calls Igneous. "We need you to repair The Rorrim Mask!"
"So you are the treacherous keybladers who cleaved the sacred mask in twine," says a slow voice. Suddenly the eyes of the statue glows.
"Well, this is interesting," says Leopan. "The statue IS Draug the guardian." Princess Hi steps forward.
"I am Princess Hi of the world The Radiant Garden, and the leader of this keyblader squad," says Princess Hi. "We are not the ones who broke the sacred rorrim mask. An evil fairy that's not from any of our worlds is collecting other world's powers, making herself stronger, did it. We are pressed for time, but we beseech thee to help us by repairing the only thing that can weaken the evil the fairy released."
"Such words," muses Draug. "But do you have proof?"
"No," answers Princess Hi. "But I can link up your heart with the the one of world on the other side of that portal. If you still don't believe me then we can return back here once we've defeated Xiphos to continue this discussion."
"No need," says Draug. "I can tell by the look in your eyes and how you were talking that you speak true. Now hold out the mask." Princess Hi takes out the mask pieces and hold them out. Draug holds out his hands and the mask pieces floats to his hands. Then the mask pieces glows yellow once and then pulses blue as the mask pieces put themselves together. Then the mask floats back to Princess Hi's hands as a whole, unbroken, mask.
"Now go and seek out The Rirrom Sword," says Draug. "It is the only weapon that can defeat The Death Bringer besides a keyblade."
"Thank you," says Princess Hi as the keybladers turns, summon their keyblade riders and leaves via the portal.
"That was easy," comments Igneous as they fly through the portal.
"That's because the mask told Draug what happened," says Princess Hi. "He and the mask are connected. That talk was just a test of will, we passed . He was seeing if any of us will be willing to stand up to something that can come close to Xiphos." By the time they exited out of The Mirror World they fly down the tower.
"This way," says Princess Hi turning right at a point. The other two follow Princess Hi and it lead them outside, with a very long drop to the ground. With the keyblade riders the keybladers fly straight down.
In no time at all they are nearing the town gates. Just outside the gates they see King Anlace and his group fighting off monsters and heartless. The keybladers shoots their keyblade riders' lasers to clear away the monsters and heartless away. Princess Hi lands her keyblade rider while making the carriage part big enough to fit King Anlace and his group in it. She lands in front of them and makes the door to the carriage part open.
"Get in," says Princess Hi. "Hero, do you have The Rorrim Sword?"
"Yes," answers Hero as the group files into the carriage. As the last person closes the door behind them Princess Hi takes off. Heading northeast to the place where Xiphos was defeated six years ago.
"I have the newly repaired Rorrim Mask," states Princess Hi along the way. "We just need to weaken him and then get the mask on him. Then it will be just the finishing blow that's needed." King Anlace and his group confirms this plan as the one they used in their battle against the same villain.
In a matter of minutes they enter the top of The Deathbringer's Citadel. The keybladers changes their keyblade riders for the regular keyblades.
"Well, look who's here," sneers Xiphos. "It's the old band of humans that defeated me six years ago. Along with three key shaped weapon wielding humans. The fairy of darkness told me about you. So I know what you are all capable of. Therefore it's necessary for me to use my true form right from the start." Suddenly Xiphos transforms into a giant version of himself, and the fight begins.
King Anlace, Princess Hi and their groups charges as Xiphos waves his sword around above his head and a red tornado rises from the blade around a red ball.
"Watch out, it's The Figure of Hate!" warns Hero.
"I got this," responds Princess Hi. "Reflectza!" She casts the strongest shield ball she could muster around the two groups. Once Xiphos unleashes a red beam from the red ball the air inside the shield shakes so fierce. Once the attack ended the shield Princess Hi put up explodes, sending the two groups into the wall opposite from Xiphos. The keybladers got up quickly as they are catching their breaths. King Anlace and his group struggles to get back up, but they all fall back onto their stomaches.
"Hahahaha," laughs Xiphos. "Your weak army is no match for my power. Soon the keybladers will fall and then this world will follow. Now prepare to taste the end, you and everything good and pure." Suddenly a spark hits Xiphos on the side of his head. They all turn to see Dagger and Prince Rapier peddling on something that looks like a double rider's bike attached to the part that makes a helicopter fly. They land the flying contraption outside the entrance if they had traveled of foot. They get off the contraption, draws their weapons and runs into the area the fighter are in.
"Rapier, what is that?" asks King Anlace.
"You like it," replies Dagger as the two kids runs up to be in between the weakened fighters and the threat before them. "Rapier and I have been working on it for years."
"Dagger why have you come here?" asks Fleurette. "It's too dangerous here. You could be killed."
"So could you," says Rapier. "But you came here anyway."
"And now you're too weak to continue," says Dagger. "So now the only hope we all have of ever regaining peace is if Xiphos is defeated. So now we are going to stand up and fight for you." Hero sighs.
"They're right," comments Hero. "But I am not letting you fight Xiphos unprepared." He hands Dagger The Rorrim Sword.
"Take this," continues Hero. "This sword is the only thing that can beat Xiphos."
"Take my staff too," instructs Fleurette as she hands Dagger her magic staff.
"Take my sword Rapier," says King Anlace as he hands his sword to his son.
"Go fight with them keyblade wielders," says Swordmaster Claymore. "Make sure to bring them home safely."
"Do you even have to ask," replies Leopan with a grin as the three keybladers walks up to be beside the kids.
"OK you four," says Princess Hi. "This is the last chance of defeating him. So we are going to give it all we got!" They all give out a very loud battle cry and charge. While they charge Princess Hi turns into her Goddess Form. And the final battle for The World of Swords begins.
"Come creatures of the dark hearts!" roars Xiphos throwing a black ball of energy to the ground in front of him. Heartless starts coming out of the pool of darkness formed from the ball of energy he threw.
"We got this," says Igneous as the keybladers form a half circle around the two kids. The heartless is almost all defeated when Xiphos starts charging up The Figure of Hate again.
"Igneous, Leopan, form our new shield," commands Princess Hi. "Dagger, do The Figure of Fate. Everyone link your power to Dagger and his attack." Everyone holds Dagger by the sword shoulder and the keybladers form a pyramid shaped shield around the group. Dagger begins swinging the sword around in the infinity sign. By the time The Figure of Hate is unleashed The Figure of Fate is unleashed as well. The two attacks meets in the middle and The Figure of Hate disappears in an explosion and The Figure of Fate continues on and hits Xiphos. Xiphos becomes severally weakened due to taking The Figure of Fate with five times the amount of power it normally would take.
"Igneous, Leopan, let's finish our new attack we developed in the last world," says Princess Hi. The other two nod their heads and shoots beams at the remaining heartless through the shield. The attack leaves the way to Xiphos clear. The group runs up with Princess Hi taking out The Rorrim Mask and tossing it into the air. The mask floats in the air and attaches itself to Xiphos' face. Xiphos shrinks down back to the size he was before turning into his true form and turns into stone.
"Now Dagger," says Princess Hi pointing her hand towards the stoned Xiphos. "Let's finish this once and for all." Dagger runs up and cuts the stoned Xiphos in half with The Rorrim Sword. As the pieces of the stoned Xiphos falls a black ball comes out of it. Princess Hi walks up to it and puts her open hand near it. Suddenly she clenches that same hand into a fist and the black ball shatters.
"What was that?" asks King Anlace.
"I just destroyed Xiphos' heart," replies Princess Hi. "Now this world will never be plagued by his evil. And it will be a VERY long time before this world faces a darkness like this again."
At five o'clock the keybladers got the people of World of Swords back to where they belong. The keybladers, the fighters, Queen Sai and Ministress Curtana are now celebrating in the palace with the high class people that was there the day before. They are celebrating their victory. The keybladers are in their formal wear and Princess Hi is in her normal form.
"Ministress Curtana," says Leopan to get her attention. "How did The Young Lady Dagger and Prince Rapier get away from you?"
"I let them," replies Ministress Curtana bluntly. "I knew it was a dangerous move, but I also knew that Xiphos knew how to battle the same group that defeated him six years ago. So I let the kids go as an unexpected twist in the war."
When the sun had set and it's getting dark King Anlace leads the keybladers and the kids up some stairs.
"Where are we going?" asks Igneous.
"We are going somewhere where the people can all see our new heroes," answers King Anlace. He leads them to a balcony overlooking the town square. Where it's filled with people watching the balcony. Just inside the doorway are the rest of the fighters that fought Xiphos six years ago.
"Just go to the edge of the balcony and hold The Rorrim Sword high into the air," instructs Hero. "Then the fireworks will begin behind the castle." The group of new heroes walks to the edge of the balcony. The two kids in the middle, Leopan and Igneous on either sides of them and Princess Hi behind them.
"Raise the sword on my count," instructs Princess Hi. Dagger nods and Princess Hi starts counting up.
"Now," says Princess Hi after she says three. Daggers hand with the sword shoots up to point at the sky. At the same time Princess Hi turns into her Goddess Form and flies over the her friends' making a spectacular sight for the people down below. A moment later fireworks are heard from behind them making the sight even more spectacular.
The next day after breakfast the keybladers, Dagger and Princes Rapier are in the living room. Princess Hi uses the Communicator Star Shard to call home. Mini images of the old gang of keybladers.
"Good morning Father," says Princess Hi.
"Good morning Hi," responds King Sora. "I take it that you are done with saving the world you're on."
"Of course," chirps Princess Hi.
"Good," says King Sora. "I'm glad that you're all safe."
"I also called to discuss that topic about adding two names to the list of possible keybladers for The Keyblade Giving Ceremony at next year's festival."
"Well, we'd have to talk about it with them and their parents," replies Master Ventus.
"Which you will as soon as Princess Hi, Lord Leopan and Igneous is done talking with you," says King Anlace from the doorway with Queen Sai, Hero and Fleurette. Princess Hi introduces the local worlders to the old keyblader gang.
"You can talk to them now," Princess Hi tells King Anlace. "Me and my squad are going to restock our supplies in the market."
"OK," says King Sora. "But we want a moment with our keyblade squad alone." Princess Hi, Leopan and Igneous takes the communicator star into the next room.
"What is it?" asks Leopan.
"Terra brought Pupa Ningyo to me after we hanged up last time we talked," says Kiing Sora.
"It turns out that Pupa Ningyo has two hearts," says Queen Kairi.
"How is that possible?" asks Igneous.
"We don't know," answers King Sora. "I sensed the two hearts the day you all left and he got his keyblade."
"Any information you collect report it back to us," instructs Lord Riku.
"Will do," responds Leopan. After that the keybladers hands the communicator star over to King Anlace. They leave as King Anlace tells King Sora about plans for a friendship treaty.
The keybladers returns a bit later then they thought. Everyone found out about what they did during the battle against Xiphos and the sight of her Goddess Form was the most amazing thing they've ever seen.
They tried to give it to them for free, but Princess Hi talked them into her paying half off. Once they got back to the room they see Dagger and Prince Rapier had finished grilling Masters Terra, Aqua and Ventus on the details about the training and getting their own keyblades.
"Oh, thank Kingdom Hearts, you're back," gasps Master Roxas. The keybladers are giggling as they sit down. Suddenly King Sora freezes and his eyes glows gold for a few moments. When they went back to normal he snaps out of his trance.
"What did Kingdom Hearts tell you?" asks Princess Hi, with her voice laced with concern.
"Maleficent left The Keyblade Graveyard a few minutes ago," answers King Sora. "She's heading for a world called World of Heroes. If you go now then you can get there in time."
"We'll do," responds Leopan. Princess Hi hangs up the call and returns The Communicator Star Shard back to its pouch. They get their cloaks on and their backpacks over their shoulders and heads upstairs. As they are walking they collect their local worlder friends and they all meet at the balcony they were on the night before. They say their goodbyes, open a light portal on the other side of the town, summon their keyblade riders and flies off to their next destination. Leaving the people in town cheering their farewells.

Well that took a long time. The story took a long time to write. Plus I've got other lives to live and sometimes I didn't feel like writing.
Anyway, this new world is based off of the new show I'm into, Young Justice. There will be mentions of Avatar the Last Airbender and the game Emerald City Confidential.
See ya!
