Chapter 6: The Keyblade Graveyard

-Location: Keyblade Graveyard-

Neosha landed in the Keyblade Graveyard to find the area where he confronted Master Xehanort the first time had been reduced to a giant crater. Neosha summoned his Keyblade,and looked it over as memories of his friends,and master flowed through his mind. 'I will protect my friends no matter the cost. Even if I do become Master,no,Xehanort's vessel I will protect them.'thought Neosha as his Keyblade disappeared,and he ran off to find Master Xehanort.

As he ran through the Keyblade Graveyard dozens of Unversed (Flood) appeared. "Get out of my way!"ordered Neosha as he summoned his Keyblade,and with a single swing he struck down the entire army of Unversed as he continued through the Keyblade Graveyard.

-Meanwhile-

Terra stood in the middle of an area that had thousands of old,and rusted Keyblades embedded in the ground. He looked to his left to see Aqua approaching. "I heard...that the Master was struck down."said Aqua. Terra's face went dark.

"Yes,that's right. Xehanort tricked me into helping him. You were right Aqua,and so was the Master. I did need to be watched. I went astray,but no more."said Terra. Aqua shook her head sadly.

"What else is darkness,but hate,and rage. You'll go astray again."said Aqua. They then looked to the right to see Ventus approaching. He looked down with a sad expression.

"Xehanort wants me,and Vanitas to fight,and make some kind of X-Blade."said Ventus causing Terra to gain a shocked expression,and Aqua to gasp.

"X-Blade?"asked Aqua. Ventus placed a hand over his chest.

"I still don't know what it is exactly,but it scares me to death. Even just the thought of it."said Ventus. Terra placed a hand on Ventus's shoulder.

"Relax Ven. Aqua,Neosha,and I will take care of you."said Terra. Ventus shook his head.

"I may have to fight Vanitas after all. If I do guys...I want you to-."Ventus tried to say before Terra interrupted.

"There is no way we would let that happen Ven. I'll always find a way."said Terra as he gave Ventus's shoulder a reassuring squeeze,and Aqua knelt down,and placed a hand on Ventus's cheek. Ventus fought back tears that threatened to spill out as he brushed Terra's,and Aqua's hands away.

"Just...put an an end to me."said Ventus as he looked away from two of his friends. Terra's face took on a sad expression while Aqua looked away in sadness. They all looked behind them to see Neosha approaching.

"Xehanort wants me to fight him so he can use me as a vessel. I won't let him take control of me,but the thought of becoming someone else scares me beyond belief."said Neosha. Aqua walked up to him,and wrapped her arms around his neck as she hugged him.

"I won't let Xehanort take you away either."said Aqua as she held onto him. Neosha grabbed Aqua's shoulders,and held her at arms length.

"If Xehanort does take control of me I want you three to destroy him...even if it means destroying me."said Neosha as he let go of Aqua. Terra,Ventus,and Aqua looked away in sadness. Suddenly,all four friends looked off into the distance to see Master Xehanort approaching. As he approached,Vanitas appeared by his side with Keyblade in hand. Master Xehanort flashed a crooked smile.

"Behold,these lifeless Keys used to be full of power. United with the hearts of their masters. Here on this barren soil Keyblade wielders of light,and darkness gave up their lives. All in search of one ultimate Key. And it will soon belong to me."said Master Xehanort. He then pointed toward Ventus.

"X-Blade!"said Master Xehanort. In an instant,Terra,Aqua,Ventus,and Neosha donned their Keyblade armors,and Terra rushed toward Master Xehanort with Keyblade in hand. As he got close Master Xehanort lifted his hand,and the ground under their feet rose into the sky. At this point the sky was covered in dark clouds. Neosha,Aqua,and Ventus were running after Vanitas when he jumped on a flying vortex of Keyblades.

"Ven!"shouted Aqua as she ran. Ventus ran,and jumped at Vanitas in an attempt to strike him,but the Keyblade vortex struck him,and sent him hurtling to the ground. Aqua noticed this,but failed to notice the ground cracking underneath her feet.

"Aqua!"shouted Neosha as he pushed her out of the way before the Keyblade vortex broke through the ground,and struck him instead,launching him into the air before slamming him into the ground,shattering part of his helmet revealing his eyes. Aqua,and Ventus ran to Neosha's aid.

"Neosha!"said Aqua,and Ventus in unison. Neosha stabbed his Keyblade in the ground,and used it as leverage to get on his knees before he pointed it into the air.

"Terra!"shouted Neosha as he fired a barrier spell at his friend who was falling. The spell formed a barrier around Terra who was being struck by the Keyblade vortex,and was sent up to the area that Master Xehanort,and Vanitas were at. Neosha,and Ventus then ran to help their friend. Terra swung his Keyblade,but Master Xehanort parried the attack before firing a blizzard spell that blew Terra back,and froze his left arm. Just then Neosha,and Ventus appeared behind Master Xehanort,and swung their Keyblades,but the elderly Keyblade Master vanished before he grabbed the two Keyblade wielders by the back of their heads,and lifted them off the ground with ease. Terra tried to rescue them,but another Keyblade vortex struck him,and blew him off the cliff. Aqua looked up to see her friends in Master Xehanort's grasp.

"Neosha! Ven!"said Aqua (helmetless) as she watched Master Xehanort freeze them solid,and drop them off the cliff. The two hit their heads on a rock as they fell,shattering their helmets before Aqua cast a barrier spell that protected them before they hit the ground.

"Ven? Neosha? Are you two okay?"asked Aqua as she knelt by the two who only groaned out an answer. She then looked up to see Master Xehanort turn his Keyblade into an orb of light that raced into the sky parting the clouds to reveal a heart shaped blue moon (Kingdom Hearts). Just then a man wearing a black uniform,white gloves,black boots,a tattered red scarf,and had black hair,a gold eye,an eye patch over the other,and a scar on his left cheek walked up to the three friends.

"Why don't you leave the popsicles with me so you can go have your little fight with Terra."said the man (Braig). Aqua glared at Braig.

"Who are you?"asked Aqua. Braig smiled an evil smile.

"Do you think that you,and that blonde headed popsicle have some grand role to play? You're only here so that when I finish you off Terra,and Neosha will succumb to the darkness."said Braig as he drew his arrowguns. Aqua stood up as she summoned her Keyblade.

"Terra will prove to you he's stronger!"proclaimed Aqua as she charged at Braig.

"Aqua!"called Neosha,and Ventus in unison. Aqua swung her Keyblade at Braig,but he warped out of the way,and countered by firing ten energy arrows at Aqua,who blocked the attack with a barrier. Aqua then ran at Braig,and swung her Keyblade,but he warped away again,this time reappearing in the air upside down.

"Kiss yourself good-bye!"shouted Braig as he fired thousands of dark energy arrows at Aqua who put up another barrier to protect herself. The arrows struck the barrier,but the barrier held up...barely. When the barrage ended Aqua noticed Braig checking his arrowguns,and took the chance to strike,but then Braig pointed his arrowguns at her which caught her by surprise.

"Got ya."said Braig as he started to pull the trigger,but then Neosha,now free of the ice,grabbed Braig,and threw him to the ground. He then followed up with an Ars Arcanum attack. He struck Braig several times before dealing him one last blow that sent him hurtling back. Braig then staggered to his feet.

"I keep forgetting,don't mess with Keyblade wielders."said Braig as he tried to regain his breath. An enraged Neosha then ran up,and grabbed Braig by the throat.

"Well he wanted me to by time,and I'd say he got it."said Braig before he vanished. Neosha,and Aqua breathed a sigh of relief,until Aqua remembered a still frozen Ventus.

"Ven!"called Aqua. Ventus continued struggling with the ice that contained his body when he looked up,and saw Vanitas diving straight at Aqua.

"Aqua!"shouted Ventus. Aqua looked up just in time to see Vanitas before he struck her down,effectively knocking her out. Neosha saw this which only fed his rage.

"Aqua!"shouted Neosha (Dark Impulse style change) as he ran at Vanitas who vanished just as Neosha swung his Keyblade,reappeared behind him,and struck him in the back,sending him flying into a boulder. Vanitas then positioned the tip of his Keyblade above Aqua's chest,lifted his Keyblade up,and thrusted it down.

"NOOO!"shouted Ventus,now free of the ice,which caused Vanitas to stop his Keyblade just above Aqua's chest. Ventus ran at Vanitas with Keyblade in hand,and the two havles of Ventus crossed Keyblades. The two Keyblade wielders ran as they crossed Keyblades again,and again, Neither of them could gain an advantage over the other. Vanitas hitched another ride on the Keyblade vortex,but Ventus jumped up,and with a swing of his Keyblade,brought Vanitas hurtling to the ground. Vanitas then disappeared into the ground leaving behind a dark pool of red,and black that raced toward his light half. Ventus ran,jumped,and dodged to avoid his dark half's shotlock. When Vantias resurfaced Ventus took the opening,and struck Vanitas head on. Darkness poured from Vanitas's body as his Keyblade disappeared.

"You've done it,Ventus."said Vanitas as Ventus remained cautious. Suddenly,the black glass on his helmet,which concealed his face,vanished revealing that he had black spikey hair,and gold eyes. Ventus's eyes went wide with shock.

"Now that my body is about to perish...you,and I will have to join together."said Vanitas (unmasked). Ventus took two steps back as a dark ring formed around the two halves of Ventus.

"The X-Blade will be forged!"proclaimed Vanitas as three Unversed (Flood) appeared,and latched onto Ventus,effectively rendering him immoble.

"The Unversed...come from you?"asked a surprised Ventus as he struggled to get free. Vanitas chuckled,but decided to reveal everything.

"It happened when you,and I were split into two. The negativity took shape as these monsters. They are what I feel. A horde of fledgling emotions under my control. And better yet,no matter how many times you defeat them their negativity flows right back into me."explained Vanitas as he walked toward Ventus. He then flashed a crooked smile.

"You never stood a chance against us,Ventus."said Vanitas. He then walked closer to Ventus before an orb of light engulfed the two. Inside,Ventus was trying desperately to keep Vanitas from taking full control as the two were now one again.

"AAAARRRGHH!"screamed Ventus as a beam of light fired into the sky.

-Later-

Neosha awoke to find Aqua,and Mickey leaning over him. "Neosha,are you okay?"asked Mickey as Neosha sat up.

"Yeah,I'm fine."said Neosha as Aqua hugged him. Aqua then noticed Ventus standing in the middle of a crater.

"Oh thank goodness,Ven."said Aqua as she,Neosha,and Mickey ran toward their friend. Neosha,and Mickey stopped,however,when they noticed Ventus had a strange Keyblade (X-Blade) in his right hand. Aqua then leaned closer to Ventus.

"Ven?"asked Aqua as she tried to get his attention. Ventus then raised his head up,and opened his eyes to reveal that they were now gold instead of blue. He then attempted to stab a shocked Aqua in the chest with the X-Blade,but Neosha jumped in the way,and blocked the attack with his Keyblade. Mickey then jumped in front of Aqua,and summoned his Keyblade (Starseeker).

"That's not Ven!"said Mickey. Suddenly,Ventus's armor changed into Vanitas's body suit (minus the helmet) as he flashed a crooked smile.

"Correct. I am not Ventus. His heart has become a part of mine now."said Ventus/Vanitas (with their voices fused together,too) causing Aqua,Neosha,and Mickey to gasp. Ventus/Vanitas then pointed the complete X-Blade into the air.

"This X-Blade will open a door. One that leads to all worlds. Then Keyblade bearing warriors will flock here from each,and every one of them to battle for the light within Kingdom Hearts! And just as the legend says: the Keyblade War will begin!"proclaimed Ventus/Vanitas. Aqua,however,had heard enough,and summoned her Keyblade.

"Shut up! I'm sick of your nonsense! Give Ven his heart back!"ordered Aqua. Neosha then stepped in front of Aqua.

"Mickey,keep Aqua safe. I'll face Vanitas. Now go!"ordered Neosha. Mickey grabbed Aqua's hand.

"Come on. He's doing what his heart is telling him to do."said Mickey. Aqua,relunctantly,allowed Mickey to lead her to safety. Neosha,and Ventus/Vanitas looked at each other before they ran at each other. Neosha swung his Keyblade,but Ventus/Vanitas countered by swinging the X-Blade causing a shockwave to spread when the two connected,and destroyed most of the area. Neosha jumped back before launching a Sonic Blade attack,but Ventus/Vanitas countered by diving into the ground leaving behind a dark pool of black,and red. Neosha ran,jumped,and dodged to avoid Ventus/Vanitas's shotlock. When Ventus/Vanitas resurfaced Neosha activated his shotlock: Dark Volley,and hurled thousands of dark shots at Ventus/Vanitas who countered by blocking the shots with a dark barrier.

"Everything you know will come to an end."said Ventus/Vanitas as he warped to the middle of the area,jumped in the air,and slammed the X-Blade into the ground producing an energy shockwave that Neosha barely managed to avoid by jumping. When he landed on his feet he charged at Ventus/Vanitas who countered by swinging the X-Blade,and creating a huge gust of wind that blew Neosha back,slamming him into a boulder. Ventus/Vanitas flashed a crooked smile.

"What's wrong? Giving up already?"asked Ventus/Vanitas. Neosha looked at Ventus/Vanitas before pulling out his Wayfinder.

"Ven,Terra,Aqua. Give me strength."begged Neosha as he clutched his Wayfinder like it was the only thing keeping him alive. Suddenly,his Wayfinder began to glow before his Keyblade began to glow. Neosha looked at his now glowing Keyblade before he sprang to his feet,and charged at Ventus/Vanitas ready to risk everything to save his friend. Ventus/Vanitas only smiled his crooked smile as Neosha swung his light enhanced Keyblade.

"You're just wasting your energy!"said Ventus/Vanitas as he swung the X-Blade,and parried the attack causing a massive shockwave. Neosha pushed back with all his might when suddenly the X-Blade cracked.

"What?! AAAHHH!"shouted Ventus/Vanitas as Neosha forced him back causing Ventus/Vanitas to fall,and the broken X-Blade to be flung into the air before thousands of light beams began firing from the broken X-Blade. Aqua,and Mickey came running up to Neosha while trying not to be blown away. Suddenly,Vanitas's body suit changed back into Ventus's Keyblade armor while the poor boy remained unconscious. Just then Ventus's body was sent flying into the air at which Neosha,and Aqua ran,and jumped into the air. At that moment,the X-Blade broke apart,and a giant dome of light engulfed the area.

"AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!"screamed Neosha,Aqua,and Mickey as they were engulfed in the giant light dome.
