-Contacted by the Dark-
In the deepest darkness part of the Undernet, a cloak figure was just hovering over the tile platform. The cloak covered the Navi's entire body, only the tips of the man's boots appeared and the collar of the cloak covered the lower part of the man's lower face while the upper part was covered by a black helmet with fins. The helmet giving him a angry glare like stare. The figure tilted his head, making sure that gloomy area is safe for him.
Then out of the shadow of the area, saying to dark figure, "Prepare for your destruction, you pathetic copy." Then numerous barrels of yellow energy struck down the figure. Soon, the mysterious Navi disappeared in a storm of pixel blocks, fading away into nothing. "Another one easily taken done." Soon the gunman came out of the shadows, and amazingly, it was the same Navi that was struck down, right down to his cloak and evil glare.
"That human will pay for developing these imitations of me." And in the distance, the Navi picked something up. Something was amiss in the cyber world. The Navi closed his eyes and began to extend his 'vision.' He saw past severs, Squares, until finally he came across a certain hospital's computer. He then opened his eyes. "Speaking of the Devil, It is time to reap my vengeance." The Navi then lifted a part of his cloak, shiftily wrapping it around his entire body, causing him to teleport away.

Various memories washed over Sean, he saw half of his young life passed before him in a blink of an eye, but all of them were THE most vital moments of his life, moments that shape him today.
He saw himself in the moment he had the most fun ever, when he was a mere new born baby, playing with a some what familiar looking burnet baby along with a skunk-haired two year old in fancy clothes. The moment he felted most loved was when his mother holding him in her arms, loving him with all her heart after a few seconds after becoming part of this world. The most heroic thing he saw was when his father, performing CPR on a man who had an heart attack and managed to revive him. The moment when he was at peace was when he was that mysterious burnet boy with a headband gave Sean a hand of friendship. Sean then found himself back in 'Lobby Room' of his mind, only this time different…
The room was,
technically speaking, warped, one part was still as the dark and cold
room that Sean had ventured through all this time, but the other
seemed to be like a holy sanctuary, designed with gold floors and
ceilings, accompanied by pearl white marble pillars.
But Sean
soon forgot this strange anomaly when he spotted, laying face down on
the floor, Serenade, badly bruised and beaten. Sean rushed to her
side, turning her on her back. Serenade gave a weak smile at the
sight of the young boy.
"Oh, young Obihiro," she said with a weak voice while touching Sean's face to see he was real, "I thought I would let you down. I was about to loose all of my power for a moment and you dark half would have taken over your body, but you're back now, so he is at bay for now." Serenade then move her eyes, looking at the difference in her surroundings. "I see, the darkness has weaken in you body. But do not think that vanquishing it will be any easier. To rid yourself of this darkness, you must vanquish the heart of it, where it is strongest. And now, that it is stopped feeding on you and the others, you over come it. The Keyblade is vital to this, don't forget that…"
"What about you?" ask Sean, "You tired you're self out."
"I know, and I need rest. But… I can not let you go alone… not this time… you need the presence of another, for the darkness will invade your mind in his domain, trying to take you back into the darkness. That is why… in order to contract his attempts, I shall merge with you…only temporary."
"What will happen if you do? Will you get hurt?"
"On the contrary, I'll be healed in by your inner light. You will not hear me inside of you; my presence alone will guard you from the darkness. But it will infect you if you let it, so it will try to eat away your confidence. Remember, young Obihiro, be brave, be strong, and do good." Serenade then gave off a golden glow and began to fall apart, but not as pixels, but as water droplets. The golden beads then washed over Sean, like rain. Sean felt soothing warmth within him while at the same time, a gentle cool chill on his skin. Then Serenade was completely gone. Sean was once again alone. He knows that he has only one more thing to do to regain his life. He got off of his knees and stood firmly before the door where his dark-side resided.

Inspector Oda sat in his chair, impatiently with his legs crossed.
"Come on, kid," he said to the unconscious boy, "What else's is going on in that head of yours?"
Unaware to the Inspector, a barley visible yellow surge of energy traveled through the cable from the wall to the heart monitor. There, the surge traveled down the wires that were attached unto Sean's chest, where it then disappeared.

Sean walked towards the door where his nemesis resides. But then, the everything around him rippled, as though something just disrupted reality. Sean felt a dreading feeling.
"Turn around," said an icy cold voice, "And face me, boy."
Sean turned around and felt himself shuddering under by an unseen force. There, standing in the room, was the mysterious Navi, with his red eyes piercing through Sean right down to the bone. Sean had a gut feeling that this Navi, had some kind of power, opposite to that of Serenade.
Sean gulp and asked, "Wh-Who are you?"
The Navi simply hold out his arm out of his cloak. He wore a black and gold gauntlet with a white glove. He then spoke with a voice that was colder than ice, "I am you executioner." And in a flash, a violet blade of energy formed in the Navi's hand. He then leapt right at Sean. The boy reacted in time, dodging the blade with only a tear on his shirt. The mysterious being stopped where he landed, he turned around to charge at Sean again. Fear took over Sean.
"WH-WHY?"
"You crossed my
path. You perform an act that gives me the right to your life." The
Navi then charged Sean again, head on. The boy couldn't dodge.
Acting by an unknown instinct, Sean pulled out his keyblade and the
Navi was in striking range, Sean whacked the energy blade, forcing
the being back. Sean was dumbfounded by the feat he just performed.
The Navi got back on his feet.
"So… you're more then a
child."
Once again, the Navi charged Sean. Overcome by this unknown instinct. Sean ducked down below the Navi's striking range, and when he was passing over head, the boy whacked him with the blunt end of the sword. The Navi managed to get a slash across Sean, only tearing his sweatshirt in half, revealing a black t-shirt with red collars and a red 'G' with spikes around along with a eyes and teeth, almost wolf like.
Sean was shaking, he was doing nothing but anger this mysterious stranger. Fearing for another charge, Sean charged the Navi for a change of pace. He drew back his Keyblade as the Navi turned around. And then, the two made contact, not by blades, but by touch. In a spilt second, the two of them were in the dark, hearing voices that weren't there.
"Dr. Cossack…"
"Mom… Dad…"
"…the plan worked, he's as weak as kitten."
"Because you'll amount to nothing, my nephew."
"I will strive to become the strongest."
"I will try to make amends for what I did."
"I will indulge into darkness…"
"I was engulf by darkness…"
"Yes, Bass… you're very style'n…"
"We'll
always love you, Sean…"
Then, after that brief second, the two broke contact between them. Both were breathing hard, with their lungs cold as ice.
"So," said the Navi, getting the wind back into him, "we are alike…"
"Wh-wha-what was that?"
"Our memories were one, you saw mine, I saw yours."
"I've made a mistake. You were just a pawn of a greater scheme. I shall leave you now." The Navi then grab his cloak and-
"Bass!" said Sean, learning the Navi's name from the ordeal, "I saw your pain… you don't have to be in the dark. Not all humans are evil as you think."
"You have your journey. I have mine. By the way… are you not curious of how the Nebula got inside of you?" Sean just shook his head, "I saw everything that happened to you. No child should have been experimented on you."
"'Experimented?'"
"Stop and consider this, when DID your life really went down the road of darkness?"
"When my parents
died, of course."
"Not quite. Who was the one who help guided
down the road? Who was there to support you when you were
down? Who was anchor to your moral beliefs?"
"Well… no one, really… I was left in care of my uncle and he was…" Sean stop in mid sentence when the idea came to him.
"Farewell." Said Bass has he preformed his trick of teleportation, leaving Sean alone.
Sean just couldn't believe it… His uncle… his loving mother's brother… had set him up after his parents' death. Using his sorrow and pain as fuel to some kind of… WICKED experiment…
