A/N okay, chapter 6 heading your way. Um, don't really have that much to say really except to tell you to please review.
DISCLAIMER THEY HAVE BOWS AND ARROWS!! (Author running away with his katana from a crapload of arrows). I NEED A GUN!! Oh yeah, just to make the crazies over there happy, I don't own anything except for any OCs and if I decide to put them in there, original worlds.
Sora quickly jumped out of the way and swung his Keyblade in a wide arc in front of him. It slashed across the massive Nobody in front of him. Sora landed on his feet and spun around in time to block a huge fist. "Man, this is only the second level and here we are fighting giant Nobodies" Sora said.
"Technically, their called Twilight Thorns" Roxas told Sora. They were fighting seven of the Twilight Thorns, each person taking on one at a time, except for Sora who was fighting two of them.
"I fought one of these things whenever I regained my ability to use the Keyblade" Matt said as he jumped up into the air and reformed Perfect Balance. The Keyblade began to glow as Matt fell through the air and cut the Nobody clean in half.
"Oh yeah, I fought one of these whenever I was stuck in the virtual Twilight Town" Roxas said as he blocked on of the massive fists. Roxas then began to run up its arm until it reached the Twilight Thorns head. The Nobody tried to knock Roxas away, but Roxas jumped out of the way. Roxas now stood on top of the Nobodies head and stabbed both of his Keyblades into its head. The thing let out a massive roar and fell to the ground.
"Well, I can't say that I've fought one of these before, but I think I can handle it" Riku said. Riku jumped out of the way of an onslaught of thorns before jumping further away from the Nobody. Dark energy gathered around Riku. Riku then seemed to disappear. A second later he was teleporting all around the Nobody. Riku landed in front of it, his back to it. The Twilight Thorn then fell into pieces. Just then a loud squawking noise could be heard.
"JUST DIE ALREADY! FIRAJA!" Donald shouted. The whole air seemed to heat up in a matter of seconds. The heat then disappeared and a red orb appeared around the Twilight Thorn that Donald was fighting. A second later the orb exploded causing a massive shock wave that knocked everyone down. When everyone got back up, the Nobody disappeared. "Hehehe" Donald laughed somewhat evilly.
"Gwarsh, don't you think that was a little too much Donald?" Goofy asked. He raised his shield just in time to block a fist. The Nobody recoiled as his fist hit the spikes in the shield. Goofy took advantage of this and began to spin around. The more times he spun, the faster he went until he couldn't even be seen anymore and was floating slightly off the ground. He then spun into the Nobody several times, then went back to the ground and just circled around it. A large tornado engulfed the Twilight Thorn as Goofy jumped out. He then threw his shield into the tornado and it spun around hitting the Nobody many more times. Goofy caught his shield just as the Nobody disappeared.
"Boy, you two have gotten really strong" Sora commented. Sora blocked another fist as he spun around and blocked another. "But you aren't the only one" Sora said as a massive amount of energy gathered in the tip of his Keyblade. A strange glyph then appeared in the ground around Sora. It then expanded out and encompassed both the Nobodies. Sora then plunged his Keyblade into the ground and two angel wings appeared in his back. Sora flew quickly as high into the air as he could go. He pointed his Keyblade straight down and tons of beams of light shot out of the Keyblade. The beams pierced both the Nobodies. Sora then floated back to the ground and the glyph disappeared and both the Nobodies evaporated.
"When did you learn that?" Roxas asked shocked.
"Just a little something I've been practicing in my free time" Sora said scratching the back of his head.
"Hey guys, good job" Tron said. "But I have to cut your training short. Mysterious creatures are attacking the square right now" he explained as the screen showed Kairi, Naminé, and Mickey all fighting Freesouls.
"Kairi!" Sora shouted when he saw the screen.
"Naminé and Mickey too. This isn't good, we have to get out there" Riku said.
"Way ahead of you" Roxas said, already running towards the door. Donald and Goofy were close behind him.
"Tron, can you see if there is a human leading the creatures?" Matt asked. There was a moment of silence before Tron came back.
"Yes, she is currently about 1000 feet away from the King and the others fighting someone else" Tron said.
"Alright, you guys go help out King Mickey, Kairi, and Naminé. I'm guessing that the people fighting are Heather and Lily. I'll go help her out" Matt explained.
"Are you sure?" Sora asked.
"If Mickey picked Lily out, that means she's a good fighter. But last time me and Riku fought her and all we did was make her retreat. It doesn't really matter how good Lily is, Heather is strong and needs some help. You guys have your girlfriends to worry about" Matt explained. "Tron, give me the quickest way to get to the two humans fighting" Matt said. "And you guys go on ahead" Matt told the others.
"Alright" Sora said as he and Riku went after Roxas and the others.
"Leave the castle then turn to the right and you'll see a very small path. Follow that and you'll reach the two Users" Tron said.
"Thanks" Matt said as he ran off.
/\/\WITH MICKEY, KAIRI, AND NAMINÉ/\/\
"Man, how many of these things are there?" Kairi asked as she lowered her Keyblade in exhaustion. Each time they destroyed one, two more took its place.
"I have no idea. There were never this many Reformed. They swarm like Heartless and Nobodies, but a whole lot stronger" Naminé said.
"Don't give up now" Mickey said as he jumped out of the way of an attack. An orb of light then shot out of his Keyblade and slammed into the Fear Monger.
"Don't worry, I don't plan on it" Kairi said as she raised her Keyblade again. Fire began to swirl around it. "Firaga" she called out as fire spiraled out of her Keyblade and engulfed five Fear Mongers. They were incinerated, but seven more took their place.
"Blizaga" Naminé called out just as the seven appeared and a huge block of ice appeared above their heads. They all looked up just in time to see the ice fall on top them and get crushed. Around the block of ice though, even more Freesouls came out.
"Man, there's so many" Kairi sighed. Just then a huge lighting bolt came out of the sky and struck down ten Freesouls. A second later a massive tornado kicked up and swirled around another ten Freesouls and cut them up until the vanished.
"KAIRI!" a voice shouted. Kairi's face lighted up.
"SORA!" Kairi shouted back. Just then flames erupted underneath the Freesouls closest to Kairi and destroyed them all. Sora came out through the smoke and hugged Kairi.
"Are you okay?" Sora asked worried.
"I'm fine now" Kairi said. Nearby a dark fireball ripped through a bunch of Freesouls.
"I know you two are happy to see each other, but could you wait until we're not being attacked?" Riku asked as he appeared next to them.
"Sorry" they both mumbled. Roxas was beside Naminé just a second later.
"Whelp, its good to see you guys" Mickey said. A moment later Donald and Goofy appeared at his side.
"Are you all right Your Majesty?" Goofy asked.
"Yup, even better now that you two are here" Mickey replied.
"What were you thinking?" Donald asked upset.
"Well, I was thinking of protecting Kairi and Naminé" Mickey replied.
"Thank you for that" Sora added in.
"No problem. Now, lets get these things" Mickey said. Everyone nodded their heads and looked at the group that surrounded them.
"This adventure just gets better and better" Riku said to himself.
/\/\WITH LILY AND HEATHER/\/\
Lily quickly jumped out of the way as Heather slashed across. Lily was cut in several places while Heather had only one cut across her arm. "Boy, and here I was thinking that you had gotten stronger. Instead it seems you've gotten weaker in the three years that we haven't seen each other. I'll give you one more chance. Join us and help me revive our world" Heather pleaded.
"And I'll tell you no. I may care about our world, but I don't care about it so much that I would destroy everything else to do it!" Lily shouted.
"Then, you leave me no choice. Good bye Lily" Heather said as she charged towards Lily. Lily closed her eyes and prepared for the strike. Suddenly she heard metal hitting metal and opened her eyes.
"Matt?" she asked surprised.
"Hehe, I've got really good timing, you know that?" Matt asked as he knocked Heather away.
"So, you've come back eh? Last time we fought you had help, and even then we were tied. This time, your help is already injured, so how do you expect to beat me?" Heather asked.
"Yeah, well, lets see just how good I am why don't we?" Matt asked as he readied Perfect Balance.
"You're not even going all out? This will be quick" Heather said as she charged towards Matt. She slashed quickly, but Matt blocked it. Matt bent his knees and slashed up, knocking Heather into the air. Heather looked down in shock.
"What you're about to see, don't tell anyone, alright Lily?" Matt asked. Lily just nodded her head, and Matt nodded his. Matt separated his Keyblade into both halves. The white half began to glow brightly. "Dancing Dragon Style: Whirlwind Blitz" Matt called out as he jumped into the air. He began slamming Heather with both halves of his Keyblade and used a tiny bit of magic to keep him in the air. He then rocketed high into the air before coming back down. He was now engulfed in flames. "Dancing Dragon Style: Atmosphere Slam" he said just before he slammed both of his Keyblades into Heather. The flames that surrounded him just a minute ago then transfered themselves onto Heather. Heather's clothes began to catch on fire. She hit the ground hard, and the dust kicked up put out the flames.
"Holy...cow" Lily said in shock. "What was that?" she asked.
"Just because I haven't been in action for a year doesn't mean I've been in training some" Matt said simply.
"Sheesh" Lily said.
"That was pretty impressive Matt" Heather said as she jumped out of the small crater. Matt looked at her in shock. She didn't seem to have any damage except for the burnt clothes. "I have to watch out for that style from now on. Now, shall we begin round two?" she asked as she raised her Keyblade again.
"Well...crap" Matt said to himself as he raised both halves of his Keyblade again.
/\/\WITH SORA AND THE OTHERS/\/\
"How...many...more...are...there?" Sora asked panting hard. The stream of Freesouls hadn't stopped.
"I...have...no...idea" Kairi said panting harder than Sora.
"There can't be that many more" Roxas pointed out.
"I don't know, they did this same thing when we fought them alone" Naminé said.
"They can't have an infinite amount" Riku said.
"Well gwarsh Riku, it sure seems that way" Goofy said.
"Yeah, they just wont stop" Donald said.
"We can't give up, no matter what" Mickey said.
"As long as I draw breath, I won't let these things touch Kairi!" Sora shouted. Suddenly his Keyblade began to glow brightly. Sora and everyone looked at it. It then began to crack apart.
"Whats going on?" Kairi asked.
"I have no idea, but it can't be good" Riku said. A loud shattering noise could be heard and the light died down. In Sora's hand now looked like a normal sword. The blade looked like an angel's wing. The whole sword itself was a pure white color.
"What...happened?" Roxas asked in shock.
"I...don't know, but this...this feels more powerful than any Keychain I ever used" Sora said. Suddenly all of the Fear Mongers let out ear piercing screams and looked right at Sora. One of them charged at Sora. Sora swung the sword out of instinct. Instead of nothing happening like with the Keyblade, the new sword destroyed the Freesoul.
"Oh my goodness" Naminé said in shock.
"Whelp, whatever that is, I'm glad we have it now" Mickey said.
"You and me both. Now, what do you say we finish this up?" Sora asked as he readied his new weapon.
/\/\WITH MATT AND LILY/\/\
Lily jumped at Heather, who quickly raised up her Keyblade and blocked Lily's attack. Matt followed right behind her and slashed with both of his Keyblades. Heather knocked Lily away in time to block both of Matt's Keyblades. She then knocked them both away and slashed Matt across the chest several times. "Come on you two, you have me outnumbered. This should be a cakewalk for you" Heather told them.
"Thanks for the obvious information there" Matt grumbled.
"But, I think that its time that I end this" Lily said. Heather had a confused look on her face.
"End this. Lily, you've been behind this whole battle. If you had an ace up your sleeve, you should have used it a long time ago" Heather pointed out.
"I would have, but I didn't have Matt here" Lily said with a gleam in her eyes looking right at Matt.
"Oh no, I have a bad feeling about this" Matt said.
"Don't worry" Lily said. Suddenly both of them began to glow and a beam of light connected them. Lily's wounds quickly healed and her strength seemed to increase.
"What, you just drain his energy?" Heather asked confused.
"No, she's not" Matt said looking at his hands. "I feel just like I normally do."
"You see, my Keyblade had a very unique ability. For each Keybearer that is on my team, my Keyblade makes me more and more powerful" Lily explained.
"How does it know whose on your side?" Heather asked.
"Simple, my Keyblade communicates with the other Keyblade" Lily explained as though it was obvious.
"Um, I'm a little lost here" Matt said raising his hand.
"Me too" Heather said soon after.
"Looks, its complicated, just go with it Matt" Lily said.
"Alright, whatever you say" Matt said while shrugging his shoulders. Lily charged quickly at Heather. Heather tried to raise her Keyblade, but Lily was too fast now. Falling Star connected directly with Heathers gut and sent her flying. Heather tried to catch her breath but was finding it hard.
"My...goodness" Heather gasped. A portal opened up behind her and she quickly stepped through. All across the ground where Heather had skid was a trail of blood, with quite a bit on Lily's Keyblade and on the ground where Heather was hit and where she stopped.
"Well, that should stop her for a while" Matt said.
"Yeah, I wish I didn't have to do that, but she left me with no choice" Lily said.
"Now, how about you tell me how you know Heather" Matt told Lily.
"Well, we were childhood friends on a world that is now destroyed. We both thought the other was dead, but we were wrong. Now she thinks by destroying other worlds she can bring back ours" Lily explained.
"Ah, the bad guy with the right purpose that has been led astray" Matt pondered. Lily had a confused look on her face.
"Uh, yeah, sure, whatever. Come on, we had better get back to Sora and the others" Lily told Matt. Matt nodded and they both ran off.
/\/\WITH SORA AND THE OTHERS/\/\
The number of Freesouls had begun to die down significantly. Sora's new sword cut through the Freesouls as easily as though they were Heartless. When there were just a few more, the few that were remaining quickly retreated. "Whew, that takes care of them" Sora said as he placed his sword on his shoulder.
"Now I'm wondering what your new weapon is" Riku said walking over to Sora.
"I have no idea, but I'm glad I got it" Sora said as he raised it in front of him.
"Yeah, without that, there's no telling how much longer the attack would have gone on" Kairi pointed out as she grabbed onto to Sora's arm.
"Sora, you were awesome!" Donald shouted as he jumped up and down.
"Way to go" Goofy shouted.
"You did great" Mickey commented.
"Thanks, but if it wasn't for this sword, I wouldn't have done anything" Sora pointed out.
"Now there all we need to do is figure out how that happened then cause it to happen to our Keyblades" Roxas said.
"Yeah, then the Freesouls wouldn't be a problem" Naminé said clapping her hands.
"My only question is whether or not this thing will work on Heartless" Sora said concerned.
"Don't worry, I'm sure it will" Riku told him.
"Hey there guys!" Matt shouted. Everyone waved. "Whoa, new weapon, eh Sora?" Matt asked pointing at the new sword.
"Yeah, this thing came out of the Angels Requiem and has the power to destroy Freesouls" Sora said raising it up into the air.
"Wow, that's just what we needed" Lily said.
"So, did you two take care of Heather?" Riku asked.
"Lily gave her a bad injury, but she got away again" Matt said disappointed.
"Don't worry, we'll get her next time" Sora assured.
"Yeah, we will" Matt confirmed.
