"Axel, you idiot…" a female voice echoed throughout the city, and suddenly another figure in black appeared, pointing to Axel, "You should not reveal our plans to none other than our own!" Axel's expression went back to anger, "she's a friend," the figure shook her head, "Remember Axel? You killed off most of your friends…" Axel threw his hands in front of him, "the only friend I had was Roxas!" summoning his martial art circle weapons, he lunged at the figure, however she simply moved out of the way, and Axel fell through a vortex of darkness. Turning to Zeoshi and Iris, the figure took a step forward, "if you know what is good for you…you will not interfere with our work." With that, the personage raised its hand and snapped its fingers, summoning dozens of creatures in white jumpsuits. "I might as well take care of the problem right now. Dusks! Eliminate these pests." Pointing towards Zeoshi and Iris. Within an instant the woman was gone, leaving the Dusks to circle around the pair, "well…are you ready for a fight?" Zeoshi whispered to Iris, who nodded in response, and summoned her lance.
Zeoshi thrust his sword into the first dusk, causing it to warp its body into a cylinder from the pain and two other dusks jumped after him, Iris swung her lance at their feet, causing them to fall, and using the momentum from the sweep, Iris brought the lance above her head and slammed it into the one of the dusks, causing it to disappear in a wisp of grey smoke. Looking up to see the dusks, he also jumped into the air, attacking one of them, he smashed it towards the ground, but did not notice the other until he felt two gashes in his back, causing him to fall to the ground. "Zeoshi!" Iris called out to him, however the instant she moved, the remaining Dusks seemed to grab on to her, weighing her down until she fell to her knees. " Come on Zeoshi…Help me!" Iris shouted, desperately trying to reach him, however she quickly held her hand high and concentrated on fire, "FIRA!" she shouted, clearing the dusks from her body, they leaped up into the air and put some distance between Iris.
Reading her lance again, she looked over her enemies, but suddenly felt a strong blow to the back of her head and she fell down unconscious. "I told you…" the woman in black looked over the two of them, and then looked to the dusks, "get them to the prison…" pointing to them, the dusks walked towards the two of them and picked them up, the woman turned around and using her right hand, created a vortex of darkness, and the dusks walked through first, then the woman.
"Uh…where are we?" Zeoshi stirred, slowly waking up, "Iris!" he shouted and crawled towards her, and gently shook her shoulder, trying to wake her up, however he stood up and looked around. The walls seemed to be pieced together from many different pieces of steel, mostly white and grey, walking slowly to the bars, he looked out, and saw the horizon with a great city underneath the castle. "There has got to be a way out…" Zeoshi looked around the room, desperate to find any opening for them to escape. "there is no way out, I've checked many times." Hearing a female voice the turned around to see a young woman with blonde hair and blue eyes, wearing a simple white dress, "who are you?" She gave a smile and stood up, "I'm Namine, they captured me because of my…unique powers." Zeoshi starred at her, "I know you from somewhere, why?" Namine giggled, "well that is a secret only I and a few other people only know." Zeoshi became confused, "but why can't I know?" Her expression changed from happy to sad and she walked past him towards the bars of the cell, "Its not easy to say this…but Zeoshi…you were never supposed to exist." He slowly walked beside her, "I don't quite understand…" Namine turned to him, "listen you are a Nobody, a person without a heart. Your original body wanders in Darkness…" "Wait. Your telling me I am one of those people we are fighting against?" She simply nodded, "I am a Nobody too, and I don't know where my original body is either…" Zeoshi put his hands on the bars, "so if I'm only half a person…what will happens when I find the rest of him?" She shrugged her shoulders, "well…what I think would happen is that the two of you would be reunited into a single, whole person." Zeoshi turned back to Namine, "but…what if I want to be my own person? Not just part of someone else?" She shook her head.
"The person who you are half of was very strong, he took darkness into his heart and survived. Then he gave his life to make sure the worlds were safe…" With that, Iris began to stir, and she opened her eyes, "What…Where are we?" she asked, slowly sitting up, rubbing her head. "a jail cell…" Namine said, helping Iris up looking at Namine, "I know you from somewhere…" Iris said, and she nodded her head, "right. You did know me at one point." Zeoshi turned, "ok then…next question: how do we get out of here?" The girls looked at each other and both shrugged, and Zeoshi looked around the cell, and saw a lock hanging above the bars on the wall. "Maybe we can unlock it somehow…" Zeoshi said to himself, and raised his sword, pointed towards the lock.
Iris's eyes grew wide as she watched Zeoshi's appearance change, slowly his hair and eye color changed along with his clothes, and small spheres of light slowly formed and clung to the sword and changed it into a keyblade. "Zashi?" Iris asked, but he did not respond, but a single beam of light shot front the end of the weapon towards the lock, making a low clicking sound, the bars on the wall vanished. Quickly running towards Zeoshi, Iris placed a hand on his shoulder, and the faint image of Zashi quickly disappeared, "wha…what happened? I must have blacked out for a moment…" Zeoshi said, putting a hand to his forehead…
