Chapter 3: Finally off

Disclaimer: we don't own kingdom Hearts or the characters, but I own a keyblade replica.


If you put all of the things that could make Leon a bit ticked off and very grumpy in the morning you could make the epic of lists, but luckily they weren't putting together an epic that morning. The thing that was making him grouchy was the fact that he got up early to leave early, but the only two persons out of bed and ready was Cloud and Riku. Sora was still in a coma like sleep which drove Riku mad when he had to wait for him to wake up so he spent the better part of time thinking of ways to make him wake up, one involving acting like Kairi had no clothes on, but if Kairi ever learned about the trick he would be on the lamb. Leon thought to pinch Yuffie's cheeks once but he remembered when he tried doing that and wound up being kicked in the gonads so that solution was out of the question. After letting the others sleep and the two that were awake think, Cloud walked to the symbol that was rung every time breakfast was ready and he started clanging on it real loudly so that everyone was woken up along with their neighbors, their neighbors' neighbors, and in essence the whole block.

"Coming," shouted both Yuffie and Sora as they both raced down the stairs to where the bar was and eventually ran into a poll as they had ran faster than their eyes could open. "Hey watch where you're going!"

"Both of you get ready, we've been waiting for twenty minutes for you two and everyone else to wake up," shouted Leon as he pointed to their rooms.

"What's all the commotion," asked Tifa as she rubbed her eyelids and walked in the room ahead of Aerith.

Tifa and Aerith didn't think to put on a robe or something and so they both came in with silk nightgowns, Tifa's being black while Aerith wore a cute shade of pink, but they both seemed to be the wrong fit as Aerith wore a nightgown that was almost falling off of her and hung real low, enough to show some cleavage, while Tifa's was too tight for her very tight chest that was almost bursting out of the nightgown. Even though Cloud didn't show it much, he had some feelings for the barmaid and at the sight of her in tight clothing he immediately felt a blush coming on and put his hand to his head he pretended to shift the sunglasses back on his face. Without even realizing that they were making their respective interests blush, for Leon was also blushing at the sight of Aerith's cleavage, they started to cook breakfast while the unprepared packed their luggage. Axel and Demxy were out looking for clothes that didn't make them look like shady characters, even though Axel was like the nobody of Reno. They tried seeing if that was true, but Reo had never been turned into a heartless as he was always cautious and could wield his stun baton with great skill and precision.

"I think you should put some clothes on before Axel gets here," said Tifa as she saw what Aerith was wearing, but still hadn't realized what she was wearing at the moment. "I mean that thing is practically falling off of you and Axel seems to be just like Reno so he could be perverted like that."

"What do you mean your clothes are too tight for you, you should go change into something else," said Aerith and then they both looked at each other and then at themselves to see what they had on.

"OH MY GOD," exclaimed the two as they finally realized the condition of their clothing. "WHY DIDN'T YOU PERVES TELL US THAT WE WERE WEARING OUR NIGHTGOWNS?"

"Who's wearing what," asked Reno as he burst into the room for breakfast. He couldn't cook worth a damn and lived off of Aerith's cooking.

"PEVERT," shouted the two women as they ducked down under the counter to hide from the vision of the notorious ladies man who used all the most dangerous weapons known to women to be Hollow Bastion's gigilo.

"Never using that idea again," said Cloud with a sigh as he walked out of the bar and avoid all of the shouting and thrown pans that would be circulating around inside. Leon had taken shelter inside since he knew the warning signs and Riku sensed that something was about to go down, but the two who had been packing knew nothing of the danger in the bar and were caught in the crossfire.

"Ah, watch where your throwing, Tifa," shouted Sora as he dodged the pots and pans being thrown at him.

"The town is in an uproar," cried Yuffie as she ducked under a table to find Riku also taking cover under the table, his composure still calm and cool as things flew over the table. "Do you think we'll be safe here?"

"I don't know, we might have to leave," replied Riku as he looked around for a better spot to hide, but was interrupted by a knife flying into the table and going partially through, a quarter of an inch from his ear. "Okay we need to go right now."

"I agree," said Yuffie running for the other side as fast as she could, but was hit in the head by what seemed to be an instrument for rolling dough. (whatever the hell they're called.)

The sound of Leon's gunblade brought the whole room to silence as the two women quickly realized what they had been doing and then realized that the eggs they had been cooking were burnt. After a quick, half-assed, cleaning of the room (they'd let Harold do the cleaning when they were long gone since he had stayed up late.), the travelling group all sat at the table for breakfast, some more aggressively than others. Axel and Demtrxy had come in during the chaos of the Battle of the Violated, as Tifa called it, but Cloud felt it would be better to call it the Chaos at the Bar. Leon had tried to warn the two not to go in, but, alas, it was too late for poor Demtryx who was hit with a simultaneous attack of a dish pan and skillet. Axel had picked up a whole wardrobe of black clothing with the occasional blue jeans, much like the black shirt and blue jean combination that he had on right now, while his companion had bought rock star sleeveless shirts and skin tight black pants with leopard skin belt. He looked a lot like some rock band from the nineties while his friend looked like a bouncer at the bar, but then again no one could complain about the way they dressed.

"Well, dudes, we are finally going out to see the worlds," shouted Demtryx as he jumped up and held up his glass, which fell on an unsuspecting Yuffie when Axel pulled him down from the table.

"We've been to other worlds before, you idiot," scolded Axel as he began to apologize to everyone for the childish actions of his companion.

"If you apologized to us then we would have to apologize to you for Yuffie and Sora," replied Cloud as he looked at the red haired nobody. "You aren't his father so you shouldn't feel any shame for the way he acts."

"Hey what is that supposed to mean," said Yuffie and Sora both as they jumped up from their seats and glared at the silent swordsmen, although it was like being glared at by a puppy.

"Calm down and eat your breakfast so we can go already," barked Tifa as she slammed her hand down on the table and the two immediately went to eating. Neither person wanted to go toe-to-toe with an angry Tifa, not even if she was sick, especially when she was sick because Cloud would then get in to back Tifa up.


"All systems appear to be check," said Cid as he looked at the computer and then started to check the other things on the ship that would help the long journey go a lot smoother. Unfortunately, he hadn't fixed or improved the dvd player, which was a bit asinine of him to do because he should have just bought another one. "Come on you piece of crap, start you-."

"Cid, we have impressionable youth down here so keep your voice down," said Leon as he had the kids hand him a wrench so he could put a few loose screws back in.

"I thought you guys already had this done," complained Yuffie as she stamped her feet.

"And I thought you were going to shut the hell up, turns out we're both wrong," barked Cid as he went back to "fixing" the dvd player. (By fixing I mean he was repeatedly hitting it with anything he could get his hand on.)

"Okay everything is done down here so everyone can load on," announced leon before he was pushed down by a very hyperactive Yuffie and was helped up by Aerith. "Thanks, that idiot nearly made me break my ass."

"How rude of you to say about such a lady," retorted Yuffie as she put her head out the doorway.

"Lady," asked Leon in a mocking manner. "Where?"

Before Yuffie could get into an argument, Tifa grabbed both of them and shoved them into the gummi ship and made sure to keep them separated by securing both to their seats before taking her seat next to Cloud. Axel and Demtryx sat in the seats behind Sora, Riku, and a thrashing Yuffie. Yuffie had a slight discomfort of travelling by ship and would experience air sickness or whatever sickness she had, she just got queasy every time she got on a ship that flew.

"Okay, let's get this show on the road," said Cid as he started the gummi ship's engines up and then sent it up into the sky as it plunged through the atmosphere. "Okay so what is the first world on our list of places to visit?"

"Well, I also got a list of people that are also coming so...why don't we pick them up as well?" Sora said. He fumbled in his pants pocket until a small paper scroll was gripping in his hand.

"Oh my God, we don't have forever to find our somebodies, y'know." Axel snorted behind Sora, Demyx peeking out the window excitedly.

"Dude, look at the stars. All these constellations.." Demyx muttered, awestruck. Axel sighed, slapping his hand to his face at the total lack of attention.

"Well, we agreed to help you find your somebodies for saving me and my friends. We don't go back on our word but we just have a few things to do. Don't worry. I promise we'll find them." Sora replied, apparently having had heard Axel but didn't respond as quickly.

"This is gonna be a long week." Axel muttered, knocking his forehead against the clear glass window on his side.
