*I don't own ANY of the Kingdom Hearts characters. I only own Katie.
Katie walked out of another one of her dark portals; her shoulders drooped in disappointment. Yet another empty white room. "Stupid castle!" she hissed. Turning on her heel, she opened her fifteenth portal of darkness. Just as she entered the portal, an auto tuned meow sounded behind her. Katie looked over her shoulder to see a cat that a long neck and six legs, its shape was very similar to the cat breed Oriental Shorthair. It had a musical theme, as evinced by the bells on the tip of its pointy ears and its collars, and the eighth note-shape of its tail. Its eyes had a cheery expression. Its body has two layers of color, which swirl together near its rear, and its knees are striped. It color was a greenish-blue and light blue underbelly, its music note for a tail faded to a cool grey and it's bells were black that was outlined with neon pink. The cat trotted towards Katie and crisscrossed around her legs. Katie stared at it with confused eyes and closed her portal; she kneeled down to the creature. "Um…hi weird cat—thing. Where did you come from?" Katie smirked and shook her head when it just meowed for an answer. She was taken aback when the cat-like creature jumped into her arms and rubbed it's head on her neck and let out an auto tuned purr. The cat creature jumped out of Katie's arms when a small roar sounded behind them. Katie looked over to see another cat-like creature but it was much larger and ferocious looking. It looked every much like a tiger due to its massive size and stripes, but also had two large crystal fangs come out of its mouth because they were much too big to fit its mouth, like a Saber-Tooth Tiger. It was brownish-red and its stripes were as black as night, its paws were also pure jet-black. Dark purple jagged crystals came out of its ankles and its large tale had many layers of crystal that were dark red and slowly transitioned to black. Its eyes had a very self-absorbed yet somewhat cheerful expression. The creature slowly approached Katie and sniffed her, then nudged her arm.
Katie narrowed her eyes at the emblem on its chest. "Dream Eaters…you two are Dream Eaters, Spirits to be exact." The two Dream Eaters nodded. Katie looked at the musical Dream Eater. "You're a Necho Cat…" Her eyes went to the massive tiger-like Dream Eater. "And you're a Kiba Tiger…both of you are dark-typed Dream Eaters." Katie's eyes lit up with an idea. "You guys live here, right?" The two Dream Eaters nodded, Katie grinned. "Then you know your way around! How bout you two come with me and help me get around?" The Necho Cat meowed happily automatically, as if was saying yes. The Kiba Tiger thought for a second then let out a huff, as if it was saying whatever. Katie pointed at Necho Cat, "Your name is now Miku. You resemble her quite well." The Necho Cat nodded happily. Katie turned to the Kiba Tiger, "And you remind me of a certain one-winged angel…your name is going to be Genesis." The Kiba Tiger nodded. Katie stood back up. "Alright. I'm looking for a medium-sized white room that has a white chair in it, some sort of crystal ball thing, and a bird cage with a doll in it. You know how to get to it?" The two Dream Eaters nodded. Katie smiled and opened a dark portal. "Lead the way." Miku meowed happily and took the lead, Genesis shook his head and followed the eccentric Necho Cat, and Katie brought up the rear. The dark portal faded away from existence as soon as Katie walked in.
Miku led Katie to another empty white room, making Katie sigh in disappointment. "This isn't it…" Katie told the Dream Eater. Genesis pushed way through Katie and Miku walked up to the gold door. It turned and sat in front of it then let out a small roar, like it was saying, 'over here, stupid!'. Katie shook her head and approached Genesis to pat its head. "I need a gold card to open this door. The last time I checked, I don't have Castle Oblivion cards in my possession. Why can't we just go into the room?" Katie asked. Genesis shook his head and flicked his tail at the door. Katie bit her cheek in frustration, before she could yell at the Dream Eater, Miku let out an auto-tuned hiss behind her. Katie turned around and gasped. Nightmare Dream Eaters! Katie growled and wielded Darkness' Master without even thinking, Katie stared at the Keyblade with confused eyes. 'I can still wield it…? I haven't forgotten how?' Katie shook the thoughts away and went into a fighting stance; Void Gear appeared in her other hand.
"Don't think you'll make me stay out of this." Vanitas told Katie, she could hear the smirk in his voice.
Katie chuckled, 'I can't fight without your help anyways.' She sent a large fireball at a Meow Wow Nightmare; it cried in pain and bounced around as the flames slowly ate at its skin. On accident, it sent its teammates on fire and made them burst into flame. They all disappeared in thin air. Katie smirked and almost dismissed her weapons but yelped in surprised when something tackled her to the ground and pinned her. It was a Nightmare Aura Lion. It opened its mouth and it glowed a dark purple, just when it almost released its aura, Genesis tackled the Aura Lion off of Katie. It roared in rage and slashed at its muzzle. Aura Lion hissed at Genesis and pounced on him. Katie rushed over to them and stabbed the Aura Lion, making it disappear. She patted Genesis' head and went back into battle. The Nightmare numbers tripled. Katie bit her bottom lip and threw an electrified Darkness' Master at a flock of Komory Bats and Peepsta Hoos followed by a Thundaga spell. She rushed at a Pegaslick Nightmare that threatened the fallen Miku and sliced it in half with fiery Void Gear. Katie helped Miku up and shot a Dark Mega Flare at a hoard of Meow Wows and Ghostabockies. The Mega Flare exploded and burnt the Nightmares into a crisp. Miku hissed at Necho Cat Nightmare and clawed at its face then let out a music note from its mouth. The music note burst into a measure and swirled around the opposing Necho Cat, it closed in on it and made it burst from the powerful sound waves. From behind, an Electricorn Nightmare charged at Katie with its hide and horn crackling from electricity. She spun around and shot a Blizzaga at the Nightmare, turning it into a block of ice. Genesis ran to the frozen Nightmare and shattered the ice with its massive claws, taking the Electricorn with it. Miku destroyed a Yoggy Ram with its sound waves and rushed to Katie. It let out an auto-tuned cry and rushed to the gold door. It meowed at Katie.
Katie looked at it with puzzled eyes then cut down a Tatsu Blaze before she joined the Necho Cat Spirit. "What's up?" Miku let out an auto-tuned meow and flicked its music note tail at the door then at Void Gear. Katie eyed her Keyblade then at the door, it clicked. Katie jumped back and twirled Void Gear until she held it the proper way. A beam of shadowy light shot from the dark Keyblade's tip and to the gold door. The door clicked and creaked open. Katie smirked, she turned around on her heel and pointed both of her Keyblades at the remaining Nightmares. "Genesis! Get over here now!" The Kiba Tiger looked over its shoulder then nodded. It rushed to Katie's side. "Shotlock!" she yelled. Three large blue crystals shot out of Void Gear and Darkness' Master's hilts and orbited around the dark Keyblades. They circled faster and beams of light shot from each crystal that conjoined together and made a large and powerful beam of dark energy shoot towards the Nightmares. The Nightmares thrashed and cried in agony as the dark energy ripped their skins apart. They exploded. Katie dismissed her weapons and kneeled down to her personal Dream Eaters, she patted their heads. "Thanks. You two can go now. Come back when I need your help, okay?" The two Dream Eater Spirits nodded and disappeared with a puff of pink smoke. Katie got back up to her feet and walked down the newly opened doorway. She saw a spiraling glass staircase that defied gravity and looked up. "I got a long way to go…where's my inhaler when I need it?" She shrugged and started up the large staircase.
"Holy mother…! I made it…phew!" Katie wheezed when she made it to the final step, her legs felt like Jell-O. She whipped the sweat from her brow with her sleeve and grabbed onto a large white handle. "Here we go…" She pulled the oversized white door open slowly. She made a big enough opening for her squeeze through the door, she wasn't gonna open the door all the way! It's heavy! She walked into a small all-white room with a white chair with a sketch book laying on its seat and a bird cage with a doll in it. Katie made a small grin, she made it to Naminé's room.
Vanitas let out a small hiss. "I'm sensing something…"
'What is it?' Katie asked.
"Katie, let's get out of here. I don't like that presence I'm sensing…"
Katie cocked her head to the side. 'Huh? Why? What's wrong?' Vanitas let out a growl in reply. This angered Katie. 'Look, if you aren't going to tell me, then I'm staying in this room until you do!' She leaned against the birdcage; a hiss of air filled her ears. She stumbled away from the bird cage as it folded into the floor. The wall next to her slowly lifted up, revealing another room. A giant chair faced away from her and was in the center of the room. Images of hearts and chains illuminated from the floor, ceiling, and walls. Katie walked cautiously into the extra room and towards the chair. Slowly, she peaked from behind the chair and stumbled to the floor. "Oh my God…" This wasn't just any room; it was the Chamber of Awakening. Katie's heart was pounding, blood roared in her ears. Never in her life had she thought she would see the legendary Chamber of Awakening. Katie walked around the throne with her arms folded across her chest. There he was: Ventus. Just like the game says, he's in peaceful sleep. Katie smiled then suddenly, rage that wasn't hers filled in her chest and her head started to pound with pain. Katie clutched onto her head and hissed in pain. Ringing filled her hears, the ringing got louder and louder until Katie couldn't take it. She sunk to her knees and let out small cries of pain. "V-Vanitas…! Stop it…!" she cried between jagged breaths. The rage only grew. It felt like Nuclear Bombs were exploding in her head. Katie let out a weak sigh and crumbled to the floor. Her vision turned to black.
