The 15th Key

Hey guys this chapter will probably be up really close to the last one, since its summer. That also means no more excuses so that means a lot more typing:'( so. If there is a really long pause it means either I got Carpal Tunnel or I died (jk). It might just mean I'm spending bro time with Xenoinfinity. Anyway, enough stalling, new OC will you do the honors.

"Hell Yeah! The 15th Key is a non-profit fan based parody. The only thing this kid owns is the plot and Oc's and a lot of dumbass hoodies"

In my office, now!

"I'm dead..."

The door closes and yelling and bitch slaps can be heard loud and clear.

The OC comes out with red marks on his face and what seems to be the remanence of tears.

"I'm sorry if my profanity has offended you...

And!

TheTwinKeys has awesome hoodies.

Ch 4:Burning Desire

I continued reading my book while sitting in the drivers seat. The jolt actually wasn't that bad after the first time. I was kinda hungry so I went to the kitchen. I was craving ice cream for some odd reason. I never really liked ice cream but there was an exception, Sea Salt Ice Cream. Most ice creams were too sweet or not sweet enough but with sweet and salty mixture, it made it just right.

I doubted I would find it in the fridge. I opened the freezer door to find a box. With a note that said Open. Inside were at least 50 Bars of Sea Salt Ice Cream! (Note this a pretty big fridge so a box with that much in it would fit nicely inside)

I instantly pulled one out and jammed it in my mouth. Salty, yet sweet, this was the real deal! As I ate, fond memories came to mind. The times I used to sneak up to the clock tower at sunset and watch it as I ate my ice cream. Sometimes there were people up there as well so I usually had to hide. Just some random seniors from High School.

They were nice people Hayner, Pence, and Olette, they were never really into all the drama at school so when they saw me they said Hi like I was just any normal person. I never hung out with them though cause they usually ran into Seifer and don't even get me started on him. I remember sitting there by myself and sometimes hear someone talk about random things. The most prominent was about the sunset. " Hey *****(white noise) bet you don't know why the sun sets red?" the voice would say. I looked around for the speaker but found no one. Even though I didn't know who the voice was it somehow was ... comforting.

"You see light is made up of lots of colors" he continued. " And out of all those colors, red is the color that travels the farthest. My immediate reaction would be to say "Like I asked! know-it-all." I caught myself after but just decided leave it alone. By that point in my life i just stopped caring about my well being, after all I was the unlucky orphan forced to face tragedy after tragedy. I took the misfortune in my life as a sign that I was a mistake and that nature was trying to get rid of me, always just missing its target.

Whether it because I was out on a trip, at a neighbor's house or was saved by some "miracle" I always seemed to be surrounded by misfortune. At age 7 seven I accepted the idea that my existence was a danger to everyone around me. At age 9 I tried to kill myself by overdose. Of course I was found with my mouth foaming. It turned out that the pills I had gotten were from the son of a Mafia leader who opposed my adoptive father at the time. My parents were shot dead the same night I overdosed.

So the police, knowing they had a "son", raced to the house and when I didn't answer barged in and took me to the hospital. They were nice people, the Avenicci's, I mean. Except for the So on my birthday, when I was told about the journey I was to undertake, I didn't accept because I wanted to save the world. I did it because, I had found a way punish myself and eventually die. I had done it for selfish reasons, the only reason I told myself the lie that I wanted to find my parents was so I wouldn't be too scared. I'm a horrible person, whether or not you take into account my talent for getting people killed. The ship's computer voice woke me up from my wallowing and self pity.

"We will be reaching Olympus Coliseum in ten minutes." I saw that I had finished my ice cream and threw the stick into the trash. I strapped into the drivers seat. I saw the world as it came into view. I could see golden clouds swirling around the base of what looked like a building made out of marble. Under the golden clouds was black rock that stretched out down until reaching swirling glowing green mist. The ship flew towards the Marble structure and pierced the atmosphere with ease. I unstrapped myself out of drivers seat and walked over to the teleporter (there wasn't enough space to land) I appeared in an open sky room also made of marble pillars and wall.

If one were to look through the of the "windows" you could see the golden clouds on which this place floating on. There were giant golden double doors behind me. I put my hand on door and instantly felt like it was draining the life out of me. I backed away and just looked at it before turning back around. There were two golden statues of warriors with crested helmets, crossing their swords above an entrance. I decided go in there instead.

The light dimmed considerably until I was in a fire lit room with a row of trophies on one side. All of them had different names like Hades cup, or Phil cup, but they were all won by one person, someone by the name of Sora. The name seemed familiar and gave me a slight migraine to even ponder over so I decided not to dwell on it. I heard battle sounds coming from outside into what I believed was the coliseum. As I walked into the blinding sunlight something went flying into the wall next to me leaving a crater in it at causing some dust. As the dust cleared i could see it was a kid about my age he had ash grey hair and his skin was a lot more tan than mine, probably from being outside so much.

He was wearing muscle armor which was made out of a light metal seeming as he immediately jumped back up with a metallic sound. (All in all he had a very lean muscular body, and then I sort of zoned out when I had realized that 1: I had been staring, 2: He had noticed 3: It looked like was checking him out, and 4: he was talking to me. "Hey, see something you like?" He said smirking and stretching nonchalantly as if he wasn't just hit into a wall with enough force to make a crater. This flustered me even more causing me to ramble. No I don't like u wait I don't mean i dont like u as a person I mean I don't like the way you look wait i mean I don't find you attractive not saying that ur not good looking but wait no that didn't come out". My rambling was interrupted when through himself on top of me. His face was so close we were breathing in each other breaths.

I was blushing like crazy his tan skin covered in dirt hovering near millimeters (WHY DO I GET STUCK IN THESE AWKWARD SITUATIONS?! I'm gonna have to have a talk with the author!) Just as I was gonna speak he stopped me saying, "Stop your stupid rambling cause u almost got us killed last time, now shut up and move" he got off me and ran towards the direction of a large grey and beige creature. My wrist lit up and and it started to project a holographic display showing the creature in question. In bright text above the creature's picture it said was a "Berserker Enemy type: Nobody, Difficulty level: High Its claymore can be used against it. The body didn't actually seem to move but instead was dragged around by the giant claymore in its hand.

The guy from before charged forward unaware of the barrage about to be unleashed. The Berserk shrunk to a miniscule size as its claymore began to glow purple. The claymore raised up into the air slowly, then quickly came down like guillotine and repeated this process at deadly speeds each time hitting him in an unending barrage. It paused only to switch tactics now swinging its claymore left and right in a wild combo. Then with one last swing it launched him across the arena once again.

"Start Playing Red Like Roses by Jeff Williams

" You can't just charge at it!" I yelled but to no avail as he continued his charge obviously enraged and full of testosterone. The Berserker returned to its normal sized and dug its claymore on the ground. The boy slashed at its claymore once and his gladius instantly broke in two. The Berserker took this and instantly started to go into its combo one more three hits and the tan boy started to take real damage. 3, 7, 10 ribs were heard as they broke sickeningly just as it was bout finish I dashed in front of him and rose my keyblade to block the hit made the ground under me give way and crack and sunk a foot deep. It backed off and landed with a spin that knocked me away.

I could barely stand wondering how that guy could even take one combo let alone get slammed into the berserker stood there obviously about to finish us off when the sky darkened to a blood red and the air became dry

"Red like roses fills my dreams and brings me to the place you rest"

. A blue glow came from the gladiator's body as he jumped back up. He picked up the two pieces of his gladius connected them at the broken ends and with a finger traced it on the faultline melding it back to together.

" White is cold and always yearning, burdened by a royal test"

It was when he looked at me was when i realized he was not completely conscious. His face was calm but his eyes were wide open and instead of his normal blue eyes, his irises contained a blue flames. Flames of the same color soon started to surrounded him and his sword.

"Black the beast descends from shadows , Yellow beauty burns gold..."

He flipped his sword into a reverse grip and flew forward leaving a trail of blue flames behind him. The berserker started to glow purple again but was cut short by the gladiator as he did a rising slash. This sent the claymore in its hand flying and digging into the ground next to me. He did one slash, then another until his sword arm was moving so fast you couldn't see it, just the powerful, ominous glow of the azure flames. It finally ended when he smacked the berserkers tortured body into the sand below. The flames lingering on its body turned the sand into glass, causing even more damage. But before he could finish it off his sword melted from the heat. I grabbed the claymore and threw it at him.

He grabbed the it by the handle in instant not even looming. Then a red aura appeared on the claymore surrounding the blazing warrior. He slid the claymore under the Berserkers body and launched it into the air and did that two more times. He then did a left swing, then right swing, then went into an outright spin attack rotating around the berserkers body( how is this thing still in existence this is ridiculous!). He then stopped and smacked down once more. The berserker exploded into gray particles.

(End Song)

Then the guy just started falling and of course my consciousness said go catch him. When I did i thought he was going to be really heavy, but instead was unbelievably light. The armor looked heavy but still very light for his stature. I carried him inside to the lobby and sat him next to the fire. Then all of a sudden the fire in braziers started to slowly creep over to the gladiator until it enveloped him. It wasn't like the blue flames that were fierce and erratic, these were calm , even hypnotic flames.

Then just as slowly as they came they returned to the braziers. The gladiator opened his and got up as if he didn't just get shit beaten out of him and unleashed everything on one guy. "So I assume u carried me in?" I nodded. "Well thank you... what's your name?" "Grey and yours?" With my voice still in disbelief as to everything that just happened. "My name is Thanatos, demigod of death and son of Hades."

Im so sorry guys i mean I started this last june and then I don't know things just got complicated and then school came out and then I finished but then I didn't like how I ended this chapter so took it back down I'm so sorry hopefully next chapter won't take half a year. I have this whole arc planned out and a new smaller side fanfic to put out while u wait for this one. The other is not going to replace or disturb the 15th Key just something that comes out in inbetween. Eventually there will possibly be a crossover too chapter. I dont want to promise anything anymore cause I'm bad with fanfic due dates so just know its not dead again so sorry.
