Chapter 20-Crossing the Line

Anti-Sora stood in front of the blond swordsman, arms folded against his chest, his demon golden eyes glowering and a sly smirk formed upon his dark lips. The sight of dark being was intimidating the former SOLDIER, as it stared at him. The amount of aura it possessed was powerful, perhaps powerful than Cloud's rival Sephiroth.

"What have you done with Sora?" Cloud asked the dark being.

Anti-Sora smirked as unfolded his arms and clenched his fist. "He's here. You're looking at him aren't you?" He laughed evilly. Then his stopped momentarily and narrowed his eyes. "He was getting weak so I had to take control. If he isn't going to go through with the chaos then I will!"

"Bring him back or else..." Cloud growled through clenched teeth, taking a step forward.

"Is that a threat? I hope it's not because I hate threats."

Cloud smirked. "Yeah, its a threat and I always go through with my threats."

"You don't say..." Smirking, Anti-Sora suddenly vanished before Cloud's eyes. Cloud stood his guard looking around the dark ballroom to see where the dark being was hiding.

Cloud swung the First Tsurugi behind him feeling the dark presence, he missed his targeted completely.

"You really have bad aim!" Anti-Sora then decked the blond warrior in his face, causing him to stumble. Cloud recovered quickly and swung his sword again, once again Anti-Sora dodged the incoming attack and unleashed a furry of punches to the warrior.

He was just too fast for Cloud.

Anti-Sora did a back-flip just before Cloud cloud attack him with the sword. He landed on all fours and slowly began circling Cloud.

The spiky blond wiped the blood from his lips, as he watched the dark-side of Sora circling him. He's fast. My attacks are worthless against him. The darkness is making him invulnerable.

"You looked troubled Cloud, is something bothering you? Let me guess...its me isn't it?" Anti-Sora smirked. "Surprise that I'm this unbeatable so far?"

"You're strong I'll give you that," Cloud said as he stood up, holding the First Tsurugi out in front of him. "However, I'm not the type of person that believes someone is unbeatable. I know what can beat you."

"Really? Enlighten me."

"Sora."

Anti-Sora burst laughing loudly when Cloud told him what can beat him. Sora? Anti-Sora didn't believe it. He's taking over Sora's body, so how can it possibly be his host? "Sora?!You have to be joking," The dark being continued laughing uncontrollably. "Sora is long gone. He'll never come back..."

Cloud closed his eyes then reopening them and nodded. "We'll see," Cloud said as he suddenly unleashed a bolt of lighting at his enemy. Anti-Sora was taken by surprise as the lighting struck his body.

Now it's my chance

Cloud took the opportunity and slashed his sword upwards, cutting the dark figure and sending him up. Then he did a multiples of slashes to the vulnerable Anti-Sora. He ended his attacked as he stabbed Anti-Sora.

The dark being fell to the ground laying unconscious. Cloud walked towards the unconscious dark being, he saw that the black skin was fading away and Sora's normal skin was returning. He knelt down beside Sora, shaking him to wake him up.

"Sora, are you alright? Can you hear me?"

Sora stirred and slowly opened up his eyes. "C-Cloud..." He smiled faintly. Sora then reached up and grabbed Cloud's neck, tightening his grip.

"S-Sor-" The blackness returned onto Sora's skin and his blue eyes were back to the golden eyes. The faint smiled was now a evil grinned. "Did you really that I'll be defeated that easily!" Anti-Sora shouted as he stood up, still holding Cloud's neck. "I'll show you my true power!" He then tossed Cloud towards the large doors with such forced, causing him to fly through it and tumble down the stairs and into main hall.

"He tricked me-" Cloud said struggling up to his feet. He didn't get the chance to prepare himself as the Anti-Sora suddenly pounced him and pierced his claws through Cloud's chest.

Cloud hollered in pain. The dark being then grabbed he blond's hair and started smashing his head onto the ground relentlessly. Then he began clawing away at his face and laughed uncontrollably as he enjoyed ripping the flesh skin from Cloud's face.

Anti-Sora picked up the wounded Cloud and held his face close to his. The blond's face was scratched and bloody due to the cause of Anti-Sora's claws. "Aww, poor Cloud. Now how will the girls look at you now? I wondered what Tifa will think after I finish rearranging your face and send her your head?" Anti-Sora laughed.

Then Anti-Sora held a ball of dark energy in his other hand as he tossed it up and down. "I wonder what I should do with this?" He said to himself, looking at the dark energy. "I know..." Then he threw Cloud and blasted the dark energy at him. The blast was so powerful that it blew the front part of the castle in shambles.

The blast caused Cloud to land outside in the courtyard. He tried to get up and reached for his sword but Anti-Sora kicked him in the gut and stomped his foot onto Cloud's chest. He then summoned the Unknown keyblade and held it above is head, with the sharp point, aiming at Cloud.

"Sweet dreams..." Suddenly the Keyblade was knocked out of his hand. Cloud saw the kekyblade was lit on fire.

Fire? Then that means...

The spiky warrior looked up at the top of the castle to see a familiar red-head, clothed in black, with his chakrams.

"Axel!"

Axel jumped from the castle and landed on the ground. His piercing green eyes, were glaring at the dark being. He finally found what he was looking for. "Where's Roxas?!" He yelled angrily.

The dark being smirked and turned his attention to the intruder. "You've interrupted my fight because of that one question? Roxas is long gone...just like Sora."

"WRONG ANSWER!!!!" Axel was then surrounded by a huge amount of fire. He then unleashed his wrath of fire at the dark being, which didn't have enough time to react as it was covered in flames. Anti-Sora cried at as the flames burned his skin.

"Cloud! This is your chance to attack! End it!"

Cloud nodded and grabbed his weapon. He charged towards the burning dark figure as is body starting glowing. He was preparing for his most powerful attack; the Omni-Slash.

"OMNI-SLASH!!!" Cloud yelled jumping into the air.

Anti-Sora looked up and saw Cloud ready to unleash its final attack. He summoned the Unknown keyblade once more trying to block the incoming blow. Unfortunately nothing could stop Cloud's powerful attack as it pierced through Anti-Sora.

"AHHHHHHHHH!!!!" Anti-Sora cried as the sword cut through his body multiplied times.

Cloud landed on his knees and put his weapon away just as Axel walked up next to him. "Is it over?"

The blond didn't respond to his companion as he watched Anti-Sora lie motionless on the ground. Moments passed and Anti-Sora slowly got up on all fours, glaring harshly at two men before him.

"No way," Axel quietly said.

Anti-Sora grabbed the Unknown keyblade again, stood up and slowly begun walking towards Cloud and Axel.

"It's over..." Cloud said.

Anti-Sora froze in his tracks and widened his eyes. "How can you say tha-" Unexpectedly, his own keyblade struck him in the chest. "What's going on?!"

"I'm taking my body back and I warned you not to interfere didn't!"

"No! What do you think you're doing you fool?! YOU NEED ME!"

"No...It's you who needs me!" Sora then thrust the keyblade more into chest. The dark skin suddenly started to disappeared and his natural color was returning. His eyes were changing back to it's original color.

You fool! You locking in this keyblade doesn't mean a thing! I'll be back because one day you'll need me again!

"..." Sora didn't respond to it's inner self as he successful regain back his body and locked his inner self in the keyblade. Once Sora saw the blade was surrounded by the dark aura, he knew he was free, but how much free was he.

The brunette saw something glowing on his right arm. It was a heartless marking. Sora looked at Cloud and smiled weakly. "See ya Cloud," Sora bid goodbye as he began fading away.

Cloud eyes widened as he saw Sora fading away before his eyes. "Sora!" Cloud tried to run and save him, but Axel held him back. "Let him go Cloud."

"I can't! He has to come back with me." Cloud tried to restrain himself from Axel, but the tall male wouldn't let him go.

"He has to Cloud," Axel said looking down to the ground. "This is his fate and he has accepted it. What someone accepts a their fate, you can't hold them back."

"B-but..."

Axel shook his head. "Don't worry Cloud. It's not what you think man. He'll be back."

"What about your friend Roxas then? If Sora goes then so does he right?"

The spiky red-haired smirked. He then turned around and opened up a portal. "Like I said before Cloud...don't worry about it. He'll be back..." Axel winked and went inside the portal.

When Axel departed, Cloud turned his attention back Sora, who was was now gone.

"You're coming back to the darkness?"

"Yes."

"Will you lead the darkness to eternal?"

"Yes."

"Will you accept your fate as the dark master of the keyblade."

"Yes."

"Will destroy the keyblade master of the light?"

"Yes."

"Then go Master Riku. Go and fight the light."

"Yes." Riku eyes turned red and a bat-like red winged emerged from his back.

Outside Sora's Mind.

"Aren't you going to return your whole?" The heartless angel asked the blond nobody who was staring at the mysterious white door.

"What about you?"

"I'll come when the time is right. You better hurry before the door vanishes."

Roxas nodded and turned the knob on the door. Here I come Sora. I hope you're back to your old self.

The World that Never Was

Three people with black cloaks stood at the center of Dark City. One had its arms folded across the chest, the middle who was slightly taller than the one on the right, looking at the its feet, and the last one, on the left, had its hands on its hips.

The one in the middle looked straight ahead and sniffed a smell in the air. A familiar scent ran across its nose. "I can smell him..."

"Who?" The one on the right asked.

The one on the left sniffed the familiar scent as well and giggled quietly. "I know who it is. I smell a traitor on the loose."

"Oh, that one. I'm not surprise."

"I am...I can't wait till I get my hands on him," the taller one said looking at its gloved hands. "Then again I might not want to touch something so dirty. I don't want to catch the disease of a traitor."

"You're too harsh you know that," the left one stated.

The taller one glanced at the comrade. "And you aren't?"

The left one shrugged.

The right then spoke. "The person that wanted to see us is here..."

The three looked straight ahead and saw a silhouette walking towards them from the shadows.

The middle one smirked from underneath it's hood when it saw who it was. "...This should be interesting."

Two more chapters to go and that's all I have to say. Read and Review.

Ps: Oh yeah...Anti-Sora is vulnerable against fire. In my story XD
