The last day for Yexum's time as an Organization member! FINALLY! Wait, who's- AHHH! Please enjoy! (Runs quickly while being chased by someone.)
Day 176
After leaving the castle, I haven't seen Roxas since our departure there. The main thing is, the three days are up and I'm on my way to Memory's Skyscraper! The imposter would either face me, or it's a totally different situation.
But before we got separated, Roxas told me that he may not be able to free Kingdom Hearts, so I promised him that if he didn't do it, I'd do it for him!
Either way, with my bracers to my limit, I can try and beat my opponent. If I can beat him, then I'm unstoppable and I can help Roxas achieve his goal of freeing Kingdom Hearts! It's now or never!
Yexum walked through the streets of The World That Never Was. It was raining, so she had her hood up. She stopped walking and looked up. Memory's Skyscraper, she thought. Here's where my challenge takes place.
She noticed her left hand shaking and looked around to see Heartless surrounding her. NEOSHADOWS! She thought as she summoned her bracers, ready to fight them! Now, this is what I'd like for a challenge!
She battled the Neoshadows, but realized later that there is too many to handle on her own! She was about to give up, but when she looked up, she saw Riku on top of the skyscraper.
She made two jumps on the building to avoid the Neoshadows, and saw that Riku is blindfolded and has an Oblivion Keyblade. She wondered if he sees her, but he just jumps down and she gasped in surprise.
Then he gasped as flashbacks occurred with him as memories of Xion showed up and started to disappear! (If you want to know how it happens, I'm not adding a chapter of Xion vs. Roxas.)
Yexum jumped up to the top of Memory's Skyscraper when Riku hit the ground. He clutched his head with one as a Neoshadow jumped after him, but he slashed it gone and she jumped down to join and together, they defeated the horde of Neoshadows!
She looked around, and saw Roxas, unconscious. "ROXAS!" She shouted and ran to him, checking for any signs that he's still alive.
"It's no use, Yexum!" Riku called out when she found none. "He's out. I faced him, and he was not strong enough to beat me after handling those Neoshadows by himself!"
"Why would you do this?" She looked at him and demanded. "Who are you?!"
"One who's here for you, so my name doesn't matter!"
"Why are you even here in the first place and wiped out Roxas!"
"Because," he explained as he took a step closer, "I want Sora to reawaken for being unconscious for almost a year! But I also want the rest of Yume's memories, too."
"Yume." Yexum said quietly as she slowly got up, getting angrier as she said that name. "Yume! YUME! I HAD ENOUGH OF ALL THIS YUME!"
"Do you even have a plan?" Riku demanded.
Yexum gave him a death stare. "I am going to do what Roxas didn't and set Kingdom Hearts free! So everything will return to normal! I'll be able to enjoy the rest of my life with him, Axel, and…" She tried to think of the name, but can't remember. "And her can go back to where we once were!"
Her? Riku thought as he thought for a bit. "You mean Xion? It's only a struggle now just to remember." He pointed Oblivion at her. "Either way, I'm not letting you so."
"It doesn't matter!" She shouted. "I'm finding this Yume girl, and the only way to do so is to free Kingdom Hearts! I want Roxas back. I WANT MY LIFE BACK!"
"If you ever," Riku tried to convince her, "try to make contact with Kingdom Hearts, the only thing you'll ever need is your life. The Organization will destroy you!"
Yexum lifted her hands at him. "SHUT UP!" Her movement was too fast for Riku to block as he was hit and recoiled from it. her bracers disappear and, in her hands, was an Oathkeeper Keyblade. "What…?" She answered her own question and started fighting Riku with everything she's got!
Riku tried to fight back, but with no avail because whenever he's about to, it was interrupted by an attack every time! And pretty soon, Riku is at his Limit. "Just try to keep up!" He said as he teleported around Yexum, aiming for a hit, also to no avail as she easily glided and avoided him.
She kept fighting back with all she's got, going for straight out offense, her promise in mind to free Kingdom Hearts for Roxas! But pretty soon, Riku stopped flinching as his reaches his last legs as the Oblivion Keyblade became white with a blue outline. "Are you-" She didn't finish as Riku started striking back, leaving her no room for a counterattack.
Every time she's about to attack, she gets interrupted because she was unable to obtain Brick Wall, which would prevent her from getting interrupted by physical attacks. And then, her Limit was reached. "Time to PAY!" She called out as she hits Riku with an insane Keyblade combo, finishing with pillars of light surrounding her, then released as they hit Riku!
He was blown back by the recoil as his Keyblade reverted to its original look and color as Yexum approached. "How?" He demanded. "How do you know the moves of the Keyblade?!"
She looked at Oathkeeper, then back at him. "Shut up!" She called out as about to slash at him, but Riku deflected it, bouncing her back with Oathkeeper gone, and unconscious.
Riku got back on his feet and approached her. He just looked at her and prepared Oblivion for a finishing blow, but was held back. Finally, he struck the ground, centimeters from her shoulder!
He continued looking, and lightly gasped as Yexum got back up slowly, using Oblivion as support, and struck Riku, but he easily dodged out of the way by jumping back! She managed to get back up and ran towards him, missing twice! First one a step back, the other a side step. "Why won't you quit?!" She demanded.
Riku saw a hint in her voice and knew there was only one person with that kind of tone, and he knew her since she was born. "Come on, Yume!" He said, pushing his luck, hoping he's right. "I thought you were stronger than that!"
What's he talking about? She thought before shaking her head. "Come on! We both know who's winning, right?" She shouted out before she quietly gasped.
"So it was true all along!" Riku said. "You really are her Nobody. Gues DiZ was right, after all."
Yexum is very angry at this. "What are you talking about?!" She demanded as she summoned back Oathkeeper. "I am me! NOBODY ELSE!" She shouted the last bit as she charged at Riku with both Keyblades, sidestepping the first hit.
But Yexum saw it coming as she prepared another hit, this time connecting as Riku had to put up a quick guard on it, sending a small shockwave of pain as he was dragged back by the force!
He got down on one knee as he heard a voice that gives him the motivation needed. "Riku, please! You have to stop her!"
"How much longer," Yexum asked him, "will you last before you realize that your beaten?"
Spoken just like Yume, he thought. "Alright," he said, "I shouldn't have done this, but you leave me with no choice."
"What are you talking about?"
"I," he said, getting up, "am going to release the power within my heart." He took off his blindfold. "The dark power I've been holding all these years!" She could see a clear indication of what he's saying. "Even," he added, "if it changes me…
"FOREVER!" He shouted as he let out a scream as a dark pillar surrounded him, preventing Yexum to see, but she readied with both Keyblades! When the pillar disappeared, a different man was there instead of Riku!
He was still wearing the Organization cloak, but with hazel-yellow eyes and silver hair and a different style. He also has a Heartless behind him. The Seeker of Darkness himself, Ansem! He instantly teleported in front of Yexum, catching her by surprise, but not reacting quickly enough as the Heartless grabbed her with suppressing force!
She tried to free herself from the crushing she's stuck in, but failed as she dropped both Keyblades, Oathkeeper and Oblivion, and disappeared upon contact on the ground in a flash of either light or dark.
Ansem had the Heartless gently lower her onto the ground and knew that there's no way to leave his current form. "And I have accepted it!" He said as he pulled his hood over his face as soon as somebody showed up!
His face was almost completely covered in red save for one eye and his mouth. He has a red cape on and a triple pouch belt on his waist. He's also wearing a black coat, but it doesn't match the Organization's.
He looked at Yexum, then back at Riku-Ansem. "DiZ," he said. "She could feel Yume."
"Oh!" He exclaimed sarcastically. "So, she told you how she 'felt' did she?" Riku-Ansem nodded. "Ridiculous! A Nobody can't feel anything!"
While Riku-Ansem and DiZ still have their conversation, Yexum started to disappear from existance. But before she was gone, she heard a voice in her head that sounded familiar. "Yexum," it said. "Don't be sad! I came from you and Yume. I am you, the same way that I am Yume! You'll forget me, but the memories themselves won't disappear. They'll remain together. Forever, inside her!"
a/n I'm sorry for delaying in this, but I was crying while typing this in! I can't believe that something like this would've happened!
Anyway, no more journal entries.
