Chapter 6: Vanitas strikes

Roxas P.o.v.

We went back to memory skyscraper and met back up with aqua. Its weird but I feel something dark creeping up on me but I don't know what.

"Mission accomplished. Now what do we do next, Roxas?"

"We head to agrabah."

"So who wants to open the dark corridor? No volunteers? Well lets head to an ally first since we might have someone on our tail."

"Riku why are you looking at roxy like that?"

Riku looked at Xion and said "he reeks."

Everyone looked surprised at him.

"Well jeeze I know its been a few hours since my last shower but I shouldn't smell that bad."

"Not actual stench. You reek of darkness, like I did in castle oblivion."

We all looked surprised at him. Only one of us spoke up.

"Well I guess you right except roxas is a lot worse. I remember how bad your darkness was Riku. Id says about 45 xs worse than yours."

"What are you guys talking about?"

Aqua was shocked but knew all to well what was going on from the look on her face

"Vanitas."

"Who?" Xion looked questioningly at her

"My darkness made flesh. 11 years ago Vanitas tried to take control of me to gain the ultimate keyblade. I had to hold him off long enough for Aqua to deal a fatal blow on me to get rid of him, but It didn't work completely"

They were all scared by now, me and Aqua were looking at the ground remembering the horrible memories from 11 years ago

"We should go."

We were almost to the ally were we would summon a dark corridor. Suddenly I felt a pain shoot through me

"Ugh…"

"Roxas what's wrong?"

I fell to my knees grasping my head in pain. I felt the darkness grow stronger now its energy practically circling me

Roxas's mind scape

"It's been 11 years ven, are you ready to finish what you started?"

"Vanitas! What are we doing here?"

Vanitas is like an emo version of sora, so imagine sora with black hair and the same outfit that Riku replica had in chain of memories except without the chest insignia.

We were in my own station of awakening. But it was incomplete it was just a white circle with a missing section.

"do you remember? You fought me here, I was defeated some how. But not this time!

He summoned the ultimate keyblade. The blade was that of a broad sword, the guard was two mini kingdom keys overlapping each other in an 'x' form and the hilt was a conjoined kingdom key hilt. He charged at me I used a dodge roll to get out of the way.

I summoned oath keeper and oblivion. He swung but I blocked with oblivion and sliced with oath keeper

"heh if that's all you've got Vanitas your going to end up getting defeated 'again'."

Outside of roxas's mind scape

"Roxas you have to listen to me, I went through the same thing you're going through. There is a difference between giving in to your darkness and accepting it."

"riku I don't think he's listening to you!"

"We wont know until after his inner fight is over."

Roxas's mind scape

"there is a difference between giving into your darkness and accepting it."

"looks like their still hoping that you'll defeat me. Well that wont happen."

I had taken quit the beating all ready I had one trick left up my sleeve though. A different combo of keyblades that suit my elements better. I summoned oath keeper and this time I summoned gentle breeze and now with riku's words in my head I am trying to figure out what he meant.

"I WONT LOSE, I CANT LOSE. I've lost so much already I cant lose any more. Aaaarrrrgggghhhh!"

He knocked both keyblades from my hands and griped my by the throat it was a struggle to breath.

"HA HA HA HA HA HA, any last words before I kill you, Ventus."

He looked at me with a look that a serial killer would have.

There is a difference to giving into and accepting darkness

That's it! Vanitas is my darkness as well as my power, I am him as well as he is me.

"yeah I got some words for ya. Game over, you lose."

"what are you….gasp"

He looked in terror at my hand and dropped me and jumped back a few feet.

"when did you take my keyblade?"

"when I accepted my darkness."

I smiled smugly at him then I charged at him, impaling him with the very weapon he sought to use to kill me.

"to evil there is a benevolence as to light there is a darkness, they are two sides of the same coin, one cannot exist without the other."

"very well I see what you mean, you have defeated me twice now. I have no choice but to accept you as king. My power is yours, just remember that the first time you show any sign of weakness I will crush you like a bug."

"I wont let that happen."

(A/N wow I put a bleach scene without even knowing it so I guess I do two disclaimers this time :D I don't own bleach or kingdom hearts but wow I finally got Vanitas out of the way next comes genie's help the organization that was killed off in C.O. is coming back, yay)
