Chapter 4
I stood next to Ven against the wall while Aqua and Terra stood in front of the masters. Even though I knew what would happen I was still hoping Terra would pull through.
Both Ven and I tensed up when we felt a shiver run down our spine. We both looked at the front of the room and I wished we didn't when I looked into a pair orange/gold eyes. Master Xehanort was staring at me and Ven with an evil grin. I was creeped out but confused, shouldn't Ven be the only one he was looking at? I grabbed Ven's hand making him look at me I gave him a small smile and gently squeezed his hand in reassurance he nodded in thanks I let go and we both, straightening up as Master Eraqus spoke.
"Today you will be examined for your mark of mastery." Master Eraqus began looking from Aqua to Terra. "Not one but two of the keyblade's chosen stand here as candidates but this is neither a competition nor a battle for supremacy; not a test of will but a test of heart. Both of you may prevail or neither but I am sure that our guest, Master Xehanort, did not travel all this way to see our youngest prospects in years fall short of the Mark. I trust you are ready."
"Yes." The two students said. "Then let the examination begin." Master Eraqus summoned his keyblade, creating spheres of light appear they where really cool if I do say so myself I wonder if Master Eraqus could teach me that. Terra and Aqua got ready to fight. But no sooner did the ball of light appeared, a cold sinking sensation formed in the pit of my stomach as a black aura was added to them and I slightly shook from the coldness that formed in me the darkness it was so… so…tainted…so… impure for some reason it hurt just to see that kind of darkness.
I snapped out of it when two of the balls came at us.
"Ven, Allison!" We summoned our keyblades and slashed at the tainted balls of light before they could do anything to harm us.
"Don't worry about us, just focus on the exam!" I said getting ready to fight.
"But you guys, you're in danger here. Go wait in your rooms!" Aqua implored but there's no turning back now.
"No way, I've been looking forward to this!" Ven said looking as determined as ever. "Seeing the two of you become masters. I'm not going to miss it now!"
"He's right don't think I'm missing this out either!" I said.
"They can take care of themselves. They've been out there training just as hard as us." Terra said and Aqua finally agreed.
"Stay sharp, guys." One of the sphere's rushed at me.
"Ack!" I dodged swiped it quickly. "That was close."
"In a real battle you've got to be ready for anything!" Terra yelled hitting a light ball. "Remember, you've got to keep on guard all the time."
"Sure." I muttered, running to attack a sphere and destroyed it with a single slash.
"Thunder!" raising my keyblade several bolts of lighting rained down destroying three spheres. "Nice one!" I looked to see Ven with his keyblade.
"Thanks." I looked behind him to see a sphere coming at him "Watch out!" I pushed Ven out of the way just as the sphere slammed into me "Argh!" I crashed into the ground with the orb coming straight at me I gasped "Allison, blizzard!" A block of ice hit the sphere destroying it.
"You okay!?" Ven asked worriedly offering me his hand.
"Yeah I'm good." I said accepting his hand as he pulled me up.
"Are you guys alright?" Aqua asked, coming to us as we nodded.
"Yeah, but you guys need to focus on the exam right now." I said as Aqua nodded and she and Terra returned to their post while Ven and I stood near the wall.
"You didn't need to take that hit for me ya know." Ven whispered looking guilty I smiled at him.
"It's okay we're friends right? And friends look out for each other no matter what." I said. we stood up straight when Master Eraqus began to speak again.
"That was unexpected but one must keep a still heart even in the most trying of circumstances." Master Eraqus said looking at his two students.
"It was an excellent test, one which I chose to let unfold, which brings us to your next trial." Terra… you've gotta pull through this one.
Aqua moved to the other side of the room and she and Terra got into fighting positions. "Now, Terra and Aqua, the two of you will face each other in combat. Remember, there are no winners, only truths, for when equal powers clash, their nature is revealed. Begin!" that sinking feeling came back but it wasn't as bad as before it happened when Terra was losing and some of his darkness appeared but why is this happening?.
"We have deliberated and reached a decision." Master Eraqus said standing in front of his two older students. "Terra, Aqua, you both preformed commendably. However, only Aqua has shown the Mark of Mastery." Ven and I shared worried looks.
"Terra, you failed to keep the darkness within you sufficiently in check. But there is always next time. That is all." I don't know why but I felt a bit angry I mean sure Terra lost control of his darkness but everyone makes mistakes heck even Riku's a master and he has some darkness in his heart it's not fair.
"Aqua, as our newest keyblade master, you are entitled to certain knowledge. Please wait here for further instructions." "Master Eraqus" I called he looked at me "Is it okay for Terra to join me and Ven for our exam?" I pleaded.
"Hmm we shall see" he told me before walking off. I turned to Terra "Sorry, Terra I tried" I said looking down guiltily I felt him place his hand on my head.
"Don't worry about it Allison." I looked at him; it wasn't fair he worked so hard and he lost all that hard work.
"But Terra-"
"It's okay, thanks for trying to help." Terra smiled sadly and ruffled my hair.
I frowned and walked outside hmmm Vanitas should be talking to Ven right now, I reached into my pocket pulled out my wayfinder I looked at it and sighed sadly so it begins, hopefully I can keep their friendship from being destroyed.
"Allison!" A voice shouted I turned to see Ven running up to me. "Allison, I'm glad your still here and okay."
"Huh? What do you mean? I'll always be here Ven, you know that." I said tilting my head to the side what's gotten into him? I've never seen him worry like this.
"It's just that I heard that I won't see you or Terra again."
"…"
What did Vanitas change in his conversation with Ven that included me in it? I shook my head "Then, how about this, I promise that no matter what even if I do go away I'll find my way back to you okay?" I smiled and held out my pinky. Ven nodded happily curling his pinky with mines.
"Yeah, it's a promise."
"Yeah, now shall we go fine Terra?" I asked as we uncurled our pinkies.
"Yeah, where is he?"
"I'm not sure but he might be out here somewhere so I decided to come look for him."
"We have to find him, I need to make sure he's okay."
"We will don't worry."
"Thanks Allison."
We both ran trying to look for our friend luckily it wasn't that hard to find him he seemed to be ready to leave.
"Terra!"
Ven and I yelled, running after him.
"I…"
"Terra we…" We both stammered looking up at our best friend who patted our heads .
"It's okay." Terra said, smiling at us before transforming into his armor by hitting the pad on his shoulder that we all had and flew off with his Keyblade turned glider.
"So you gonna follow him, Ven?" I asked him.
"Yeah, I need to find him before its too late."
"Well, then I'm going with you." I said "Huh? But Allison-" I cut him off "Look Ven, there's no way I'm letting you go alone and if Master Eraqus makes us come back then I'll share the blame with you, kay?" I touching my shoulder pad and got into a dark blue and silver armor. Ven smiled and got his armor on, looking amazed at what he had just done. I couldn't blame him my armor was pretty cool too it matched the color of my wayfinder just like I thought it would 'This is so cool' I thought looking at my armor is amazement.
"Ready?" Ven asked as I looked to him. I was nervous about going to different worlds but I was also wondering what it's like.
"Yeah I'm ready, let's get going." I said and Ven nodded. We then threw our keyblades into the air and they turned into gliders, Ven's looking like a hover board while mine looked like a silver hover board too but it had V shaped lasers on the side. "What are we waiting for? Let's go!" I yelled as we jumped onto our gliders and we flew off after Terra but not before we heard someone someone shout our names.
"Wait, Ven Allison!" I turned to see Aqua and Master Eraqus standing below us, watching us fly away. 'Sorry Aqua, Master Eraqus but I need to stay with Ven and make sure he'll be okay.' I thought as we flew off.
The five of us stood there silently for the longest time Donald was pointing at our keyblades with his jaw-Err I mean his beak was dropped open, Goofy had his mouth covered with both his hand and Sora was looking at us wide-eyed and his mouth was slightly opened we stood there nervously, it seemed like forever before Sora blurted out; "You guys wield keyblades too!?" Franklin and I shared a look as we both mentally agreed to play dumb "You mean this things?" Franklins asked raising Oblivion "Yep" Sora nodded "Then, I guess we do" I said as we dismissed our keyblades
"Gawrsh, how'd ya get them?" Goofy asked "Well we where running from those black things when I tripped and fell, and when I got back up it was already tool late for me to run away one of those things lunged at me I thought I was a goner when that weird sword appeared in my hand it's the same with him" I explained gesturing to Franklin who nodded in return okay I was lying when I said that OathKeeper appeared in my hand but they didn't need know that.
"Um, do you know where we are?" I asked "Your in Hollow Bastion" Donald replied "You've never heard of it?" Sora asked we both shook our heads the three of them huddled into a group
XxxWith Sora, Donald and GoofyXxx
"You think they're from another world?" Sora whispered looking at the other two Keyblade wielders the boy looked to be about fourteen and had dark brown hair that was slightly spiked with dark brown eyes he was dressed in clothes that looked similar to his own but it was silver and white the girl next to him looked to be fourteen as well but seemed to be a few months younger then the boy she had light brown hair that went down her back a light hazel eyes she was wearing clothes that reminded him of the Yin-Yang colors save for the silver metal boots she wore in Sora's opinion she was kinda cute.
"They've gotta be they don't know about Hollow Bastion, where else could they have come from?" Donald asked "Gawrsh what do ya think should do?" Goofy questioned Sora thought for a moment before a wide smile grew on his face "Let's take them with us!" He exclaimed "What!?" Donald quacked "C'mon Donald they wield the Keyblade like me we could use their help" Sora explained and before Donald could say anymore he made his way over to the other two Donald and Goofy shared a look before walking forward as well.
My POV:
"Hey do you guys want to come with us in our journey?" Sora asked us "See we're traveling different worlds and saving them from the heartless and we're also trying to find the King and my best friend Riku" he added looking hopeful Franklin and I looked at each other then back a Sora "Count us in" Franklin smirked "Yeah we'd love to help" I added smiling brightly "Great!" He beamed.
"I'm Sora by the way" he introduced "Donald Duck" the magician quaked "Name's Goofy" the dog said happily "I'm Franklin and this is Allison, it's nice to meet you guys" Franklin said I nodded happily. Goofy placed his hand in the middle then Sora and Donald placed they're hand on top of his they looked at us and gave us a smile which we returned as we placed our hands on top of theirs "All for one and one for all" Goody declared happily.
