Chapter Thirteen-Learning of the Heartless Angel part II
Twilight Town
At their usual spot hangout, the trio of Hayner, Pence and Olette sat at their hideout bored out of their mind. Hayner, the supposedly known leader in their trio, was laying on the ground, throwing a small blue ball at the wall as it bounce back towards him. Pence was sitting in a chair, licking on his sea salt ice that he just bought with the little munny he had left. As for Olette, she too sat in a chair. Her emerald green eyes watching her blond friend throw the small blue to the wall.
Yep, they were bored all right and they just gotten on break from school.
Irritated with nothing else to do, the blond teen threw the ball harder against the wall, which cause it to bounce in a another direction and hit Pence's hand, causing him to drop his sea salt ice.
Splat
"Aww," Pence pouted. "I just bought that."
Hayner sighed as he stood up from the ground and dusted himself off. "Sorry Pence, I'm just so damn bored today. There's nothing to do at all! We're on break for crying out loud. We should be going to the beach or the movies!" Hayner yelled.
Olette rolled her eyes at her friend. "Hayner that wouldn't be a problem if had any munny, but do we no we don't. Unless you want to get a job during the break."
"Job?! My mother has been trying to get me a job since I enter high school. I told her I'll get a job when I graduate. Besides, education comes first," Hayner bluntly said.
Both Pence and Olette gave each other a quick glance at Hayner and burst out laughing. Hayner glared at this two friends.
"What's so funny?"
"You are," Pence laughed, whipping the tears from his eyes.
"Hayner you should be the last person to be talking about education. Last time I recalled, you got a F in Ms. Mason class," Olette said in a matter-of-factly tone.
Hayner narrowed his eyes and then crossed his arms. "Tch, whatever." The blond then softened his brown eyes and walked over to pick up his blue ball and put it in his pocket. "Seriously guys, we need to do something. We're all bored here."
"Why not prepare yourself for the struggle tournament that's coming up in a couple weeks. Spar with Pence," the brown haired girl suggested.
"No way! Pence is not a good sparring partner."
"Hey!"
Hayner sighed and began walking out of their usual spot. The two saw this as a sign to follow them. Whatever Hayner leaves, it means that he has something on his mind or that he wants his friends to follow him around Twilight Town till he comes up with something.
As the trio walked around Twilight Town, they found themselves walking towards Central Station.
"Hey!" Pence suddenly shouted out loud. "Isn't that Kairi over there?"
Hayner, who was walking with his head hung low, looked up and saw a familiar red-haired girl, surrounded by three people he wasn't familiar with. "Yeah, I believe so. Isn't she the one who was looking for that boy name Sora?" Hayner asked.
Olette nodded. "Yep, but who are those people with her? I never seen them before."
The trio observed the people that are with Kairi. One was a tall sliver hair guy that looked around their age, the other was a girl with black hair and she was standing next to a guy with blond spikey hair. Almost reminded them of another spikey hair person.
"Hey Kairi! Over here," Olette hollered to the red-haired teen.
When Kairi heard her name, she turned around and saw Olette waving her hands to get her attention. Kairi smiled and waved back.
"Welcome back Kairi," Olette greeted her and then gave her a friendly hug.
"It's good to be back Olette," Kairi kindly greeted back. "Hi Hayner and Pence."
Both boys gave her their quick greeting.
"So, Kairi were you able to reunite with Sora?" Pence inquired.
"Uhhh...." The questioned caught Kairi off guard. She wasn't them to ask her a question about Sora. She didn't know whether to answer it or not. She looked over to her shoulder and to see Cloud blue's staring at her. She then remembered what he told her, not to mention anything what's going on with Sora. "Umm, y-yeah he's doing fine...back home," Kairi hesitantly answered. She didn't like lying to her friends, but it was the only way to prevent them knowing the truth about Sora.
"Cool, so what brings you back here?"
"Business," Cloud monotonously said. "Kairi and Riku you guys stay here with them."
Kairi gave him a nod while Riku just shrugged his shoulders and began walking away from the group.
Cloud then began walking inside Central Station with Tifa following closely behind the train station, Cloud waited for the special train to come and take him to Yen Sid's tower.
"Your sure that there's a train that leads to Yen Sid's tower," Tifa asked while looking at the trains entering and exiting the station. "None of these trains look special."
"Don't take my word for it. Merlin said there is a train that leads you there. He probably forgot to tell me which train though," Cloud answered while examining the trains. He was trying to figure out which train leads to the tower.
Then a loud horn was heard coming inside the station. Cloud and Tifa looked to see a green train coming to its stop and then its door open. Cloud felt in his heart that this was the right train.
"This is it," Cloud said walking towards the green train.
"How do you know it is the right train?"
"Because Tifa...no one know exited the train," Cloud smirked and boarded the train.
Tifa looked at the other trains in the station and saw passengers boarding the train and exiting the train. "Oh." Was all she can say.
Just as she was about to board the train with Cloud, he blocked her entering the train. She looked at him baffled by why he wasn't letting her on. "Cloud, what are you doing? Let me on."
The blond shook his head. "Can't, you have to stay here."
"Why? Why can't you let me come with you?" Tifa asked, furrowing her brows. She hates it when Cloud doesn't like her come with him and have her stay behind.
"Stop being so stubborn Tifa. Someone has to stay and watch Kairi and Riku. Besides...Sora is here."
"He is?" Tifa quirked a brow. She didn't recall seeing Sora anywhere when they arrived.
"Yeah, that's why I need you to stay here just in case something happens. I won't be long." With that said, the doors finally closed and the train slowly began moving towards a portal.
Tifa sighed when the train disappeared inside the portal. Why does he get to ride on a magical train? She thought leaving the station.
Old Mansion
Sure enough Cloud was right. The keyblade master was here in Twilight Town, but not in there area. He was at the old mansion where he was awakened. On the top of the roof, Sora sitting there thinking about what Sephiroth told him. He knew Riku and Kairi was here, along with Cloud and Tifa, but he wasn't thinking about them.
His blue eyes scanned through the wood below him. He can sense the nobodies in the area and swarming around the woods waiting for any trespassers to come by. This old mansion area belongs to the nobodies. This is where they call home.
"His right," Sora quietly said to himself. "The dark isn't accepting me. It doesn't want my heart. This isn't my fate."
What are you talking about? This is your fate. Don't worry about what those scumbags say.
"Shut up!" Sora shouted to his anti-form inside his mind. "It's your fault that you got me in this predicament. I should of never let you influence me to this side."
My fault?! How dare you say my fault you bastard! I was only helping what your heart desired. Remember, I was the one who gave you this power. I control you!"
"You don't control me! I only control myself!"
Don't do this to me Sora. Don't you get weak on me!
Sora chuckled to himself. "Weak? I'm not weak. You're the weak here buddy. I can get rid of you anytime I want." Sora then summoned out the Unknown Keyblade, pointing it to himself. "I can lock you up inside here."
His anti-form only growled in his response to the threat. Unknown Keyblade was his strength and also its weakness. If Sora was over to stab himself with it, the Anti-Form will be locked inside the keyblade.
After a moment of silence, the brunette teen closed his blue orbs and began calling someone through his heart. Even though his heart is still poison with the darkness, he can still connect through this person.
Kairi...
Yen Sid's Tower
When Cloud approached the final door of the tower, he opened the door as he entered inside the room. The door closed behind him.
"Welcome, Cloud Strife. I've been expecting you," a deep voice echoed in the room.
Cloud eyes shifted around the room trying to see where the voice came from. No one was inside the room though expect himself. "You must be Yen Sid," Cloud replied to the voice.
"Yes I am." Suddenly, a bright light appeared on a large chair and Yen Sid finally appeared, sitting in the chair.
Cloud observed the wizard. He was a tall old man in a blue outfit and a pointy blue matching hat, with a long gray beard. His black eyes stared into Cloud's blue ones. Even though Cloud is a swordsman, he doesn't see why he shouldn't be intimated by this guy. He was more intimating than Sephiroth.
"You sent them Heartless and Nobodies to fight me huh?" Cloud implied while remembering when he enter the tower that he fought Heartless' and Nobodies each time he moved up towards the tower. Some of them even took forms of his old foes that he once fought in the past with.
"I had to see if your were worthy enough to see me. Many have tried and failed while a couple have passed my test," Yen Sid stated.
"Sora was one of them wasn't he?"
The old wizard nodded in his response. "He had help but he still passed. So what do you want to see me for Cloud? You don't have to tell me about Sora, I already know about him."
"I see but Merlin wanted me to show you something." Cloud took at the sketch Merlin showed him before he left. "He wanted you to explain this to me. It's some kind of Heartless. He says Ansem the Wise seen it before and sketched it. He called it the Heartless Angel." Cloud handed the drawing to him.
"Hmm.....this picture is something that the King once told me about. Actually, he gave me a one of Ansem's reports about it," Yen Sid then gave Cloud a written paper.
Cloud took the paper and carefully read what Ansem wrote.
Outside Sora's Mind
"Where the heck am I?" Roxas quietly asked himself. "How long have been in this place?" Roxas was walking in a blank white place. There was nothing in his sight. Roxas has been in this place since that incident with Sora.
"Damnit!" he cursed loudly. "I have been in this place for like forever and I still can't find my way back to Sora. Who knows how many times I've been walking around in circles. Can I get some sort of a sign to get back to Sora please!"
Just as if his prayer has been answered, something black sparkled in the distance. Roxas saw this as a sign to maybe get back to Sora as he ran towards the black in the distance. As the blond got closer and closer, the black thing in the got larger and larger. Then he stopped when he was close enough. His blue eyes widened at the sight before him.
"What...in...the...hell...is...that?" Roxas gazed at the creature in front of him. Its back was facing him, but it had wings of an angel. The creature turned around slowly and its golden orbs glanced at the blond before him.
Roxas didn't know what it is but it some-what resemble a heartless. Thinking that its a threat, Roxas summoned both his Oathkeeper and Oblivion keyblade, one in each hand.
"I wouldn't do that if I were you, Roxas."
Yep, chapter 13 is done and I was going to tell you guys about the heartless angel this chapter, but nah you guys need to wait just one more chapter about it. This is where the excitement begins to pick up. And yes, Sora is beginning to change his ways, but more of it is still to come. Sora maybe coming back to his old self, but he still a threat alright.
So read and review.
Peace.
