Hey, all of you awesome people reading this! Thank you so much for all your kind reviews, faveorites, and follows! :) Getting those always makes me happy. Sorry for not updating in about a week, I've been pretty busy, but I can update now! Okay, enough of me talking, lets begin!
Disclaimer: I own nothing! Except you, Cyrah. I own you!
"Hey, Ventus, I can't beleive Terra and Aqua are gonna be keyblade masters! This is gonna be so exciting." I said happily as Ventus and I walked to the throne room where their two friends would be given the Mark of Mastery exam. Ventus looked at me, a wide grin was plastered on his face.
"I know right, this is gonna be great. Our friends, both masters with the keyblade." he repliee happily as we walked continued to walk. I looked at him and nodded as a smile spread across my lips. "We should hurry, Cyrah, we're almost late." Ventus stated then took off running up the stairs to the tower. I laughed and started running up the stairs after my friend. I saw the throne room come into view as my friend entered the room. I stopped to catch my breath outside the door, I calmly walked in and looked around at the polished floors and white walls. I looked over at the red thrones and smiled as I thought about what it would be like to see Terra and Aqua sitting in them, as masters. I turned around quickly when I heard an older man clear his throat.
"Oh, I'm sorry Master Eraqus. I didn't know you were here." I quickly explained as my face turned red from embarressment. I smiled awkwardly and ran to the sidelines and stood beside my blonde friend. "Thanks for telling me he was here, Ventus." I said in a quiet sarcastic tone.
Ventus looked at me with an apolagetic expression on his face, "Sorry, Cyrah, I thought you knew he was behind you when you came in." he whispered.
I smiled, "I was just kidding, I'm not mad, just embarressed." I said with a slight giggle. I looked overat Ventus who was smiling again. I smiled back and turned my attention to my other friends and listen attentivly as Master Eraqus spoke.
"Today you will be examed for the Mark of Mastery. Not one, but two of the keyblafe's chosen stand here as candidates. This is neither a competition nor a battle for supremacy, it is not a test of wills, but a test of heart. Both of you may prove worthy, or neither, but I am sure our guest, Master Xehenort, didn't come all this way to see our youngest prospects fall short of the mark. I trust you're ready?" Master Eraqus spoke solemly and proud.
"Yes." Terra and Aqua said in unison. Ventus and I exchanges a happy glance then looked back at our master.
"Then let the test begin." The Master finished as he turned and walked to his seat to watch them. He made multiple orbs of light appear. My crimson red eyes widened as I saw the orbs be surronded in darkness. I looked over at Ventus, confused.
"Is this supposed to happen?" I asked in a hushed whispered. Ventus shrugged, a look of confusion also on his face.
"Ven, Cyrah, look out!" Aqua yelled as she saw some of the orbs advance towards us. I pushed my golden hair out of my face as my keyblade, Diamond Dust, appeared in my hands. I glanced at Ventys and nodded as we attacked the ones coming towards us. "Cyrah, Ven, go to your rooms. It's too dangerous here, I don't want you two to get hurt." Aqua said as her and Terra were fighting them off.
"I'm not going! I've looked forward to this, to see the two of you become Masters. I'm not gonna missit for anything." Ventus argued. He looked over at me for support. I nodded.
"I'm not going anywhere either. This day is way too important for you guy
s. I'm not going anywhere!" I said, backing Ventus up.
"Let them stay, they've trained just as hard as we have out there." Terra told Aqua. Aqua sighed but nodded. "Be careful and stay sharp." He said looking at both Ventus and me. We looked at each other and nodded.
"Cyrah, watch out!" Ventus said as an orb came towards me. I blocked it with my keyblade and pushed it back. I ran towards it and jumped, swinging at the orb as I landed. I hit it with a swift blow and pushed it away again. I let out a small squeak of surprise as another orb rammed into me from behind, it knocked me on the ground so I quickly rolled away and jumped up delivering a, somewhat, powerful kick to one of it's sides. I quickly turned around as I remembered the other orb,but I wasn't fast enough. The orb was already ramming into me and sent me flying back. Ventus ran up to me, "Cyrah, are you okay?" he asked with worry clear in his sky blue eyes. I took a deep breath and nodded as he extended his hand towards me. I smiled as he helped me up. I looked over at Aqua and Terra to notice they had defeated the rest of the dark orbs. Ventus and I walked back to the sidelines where we had stood before. I looked at my blonde haired friend and smiled, "Thank you for helping me." I said quietly since Master Eraqus had started talking again.
"That's what friends do, Right?" he asked as his face lit up with happiness. I giggled happily and nodded.
"Begin." Master Eraqus said as he once again went to his chair. Aqua and Terra began fighting. Their keyblades clanked against each other. The hits were strong and powerful as they battled. Their fight lasted for at least an hour, neither of them even seemed remotly tired or worn out. Aqua had amazing reflexes, dodging alot of Terra's strong attacks. The match seemed to go on forever, they seemed perfectly matched and relaxed. Master Eraqus stood up and walked forward, meaning for the fighting to subdue. The two apprentices stopped and stood respectfully in front of the two masters. I looked at Ventus happily, both of our faces shining brightly with anticipation for our friends.
"We have deliberated and reached a decision. Terra, Aqua, you both performed commendably, however, only Aqua has shown the mark of mastery. Terra, you have failed to keep the darkness within you sufficiently in check, but there is always next time. That is all." Master Eraqus stated calmly to Terra, who looked on in sadness and disbeleif. Master Eraqus turned his attention to the blue-haired girl, "Aqua, as our newest keyblade master you're entitled to certain knowledge. Please, wait here for furthur instruction." He finished before walking out of the room. I watched him leave then ran to Terra's side.
"Terra. . . " Aqua said apologetically as she looked at her friend. Ventus walked up also.
"Terra, I'm sorry." He said gazing at his friend in sadness. I looked at Terra and sighed.
"Don't worry, Terra. You are great and you do keep the darkness in check." I said trying to reassure him. Terra looked at the ground and let out a sigh.
"The darkness, where did it come from?" I heard him mutter to himself. He turned to look at the three of us, "I'm sorry, but I need some time alone." he said before walking off. I stared after him until he was out of view.
"Do you think he'll be okay?" I asked as I looked at my two remaining friends. Aqua let a faint smile appear on her face.
"Cyrah, of course he'll be fine. Have you forgotten this is Terra we're talking about." She said trying to cheer me up. I smiled at her feeling only slightly better. I nodded at her and turned away as I began to walk back to my room, then stopped and turned to Aqua.
"Great job, Master Aqua. You did it." I congratulated her with a wide smile. Aqua seemed embarressed at being called a master, which made both Ventus and I laugh. I turned back around and continued the walk to my small room. I looked at the pictures on the walls of the long corridors. I stopped in front of my room as I thought of how Terra must feel. I sighed and slowly opened the wooden door to my bedroom. I plopped on my bed which had a star pattern on it as I gazed out the window. I closed my eyes and slowly drifted to sleep
XOXOXOXOXOXO
I slowly opened my crimson red eyes as I heard the bell ring. I pushed my hair away from my eyes and started walking to the noise. I once again looked at all the pictures on the wall, I turned the corner and saw Ventus running in a hurry towards somewhere else. I looked at him with a confused expression on my face. "Where is he going?" I ask myself under my breath. I run after him and see him and Terra talking in the garden. Terra pushes the armor on his shoulder and he transforms into his suit of armor. I gasp as I realuze what he's about do. He throws his keyblade into the air and it transforms into his vehicle and a hole opens up in the sky. I run down the stairs and when I get at the bottom, Terra is gone. "Ventus!" I yell at the blonde boy as he too had his armor on. He turned around and looked at me.
"Cyrah, I have to-
"I know, Ventus. You have to find Terra." Ventus nodded. "Well, I'm not letting you go. . . alone. So I'm coming with you." I say nodding my head. I touch the silver colored armour on my shoulder as I change into a silver and purple suit of armour.
"Cyrah, you can't come with me. It could be dangerous. Ventus said as he stared at my. I laugh as I look at him.
"Ventus, you don't have a choice. I'm coming with you whether you want me too or not. Besides, how can you say it's dangerous or I'll be in danger. I'm as old as you." I say with my arms crossed over my chest. Ventus sighed but nodded, he knows how stubborn I can be. I smile and throw my keyblade up and smile wider as it comes down as a vehicle type-thing. I get on mine as Ventus does the same. We smile at each other and fly away into the are here, in thiss portal of nothing but swirling darkness. We must've been in there for quite a while because I started feeling tired and it was hard to keep my eyes open. Ventus probably noticed this because he grabbed my hand and pulled us into the nearest world. And that's all I remember really. I fell asleep, I wasn't trying to but I did.
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
I woke up slowly and took a look around at the lush, green scenary that was before me. Beautiful green trees and bundles of colorful flowers blanketed the ground. I looked up at the nice blue sky. "The color of the sky reminded me of the color of Aqua's eyes , then I shot up. "Where are my- oh yeah." I say as I remember what happened, I look around and see Ventus just waking, too. I smile and poke him in the side while giggling.
"Wha. . . .huh? Cyrah?" He said as I laughed even more. Ventus smiled and sat up. The two of us just sat there for a minute just gawking at the beautiful scenery. I looked at my blonde friend with a confused expression, he looked at me, "What is it, Cyrah?"
"Uhm. . . Ventus, where exactly are we?
