The 7 Medallions
Chapter 2: Attack in Dunwitty, Part 1
Castle Oblivion was the home for Nobodies and Heartless alike. In fact, in the world it resides in, it is cloaked in an eternal night. This is the perfect environment for the creatures of darkness. The castle itself stood in front of a heart-shaped moon. A dark corridor opened in a completely white room with 13 thrones which stood around a strange emblem in the center. From the corridor came the same man who infiltrated Enchancia, kidnapped Sofia and lost his battle against Mason. He kneeled to his master, who was sitting on the tallest throne in the room. The master had long, silver hair running down to the middle of his back with some of it over his shoulders and has two bangs, one on each side. Like the man who was kneeling to him, he wears a long black coat, along with 10 other people who were in the room, sitting on their thrones.
"Master Xemnas, I have failed." The man said with his head bowed.
"You did not fail me, Xaldin." Xemnas said.
Xaldin looks up at Xemnas with a confused look. "What are you saying, Master?" he asked as he stood up.
"What I am saying is that sending you to kidnap that young princess was the only way to draw out that new Keyblade wielder you recently fought." Xemnas explained "What I am really after was her amulet."
"Amulet?" Xaldin asked.
"Yes, Xaldin." Xemnas answered "that princess' amulet holds very special powers. It grants her special powers depending on the deeds she does. What's more is that whenever she is in a situation she can't get herself out of, another princess comes to her aid."
"What is so special about that?" Xaldin asked.
"During your mission, I checked the Organization's database and I found that among the princesses she summoned to aid her, five of them are Princesses of Heart." Xemnas replied with a calm tone.
"Is this true, Master Xemnas?" a surprised Xaldin asked.
"Yes." Xemnas answered. "With that amulet in our hands, we will achieve our lifelong mission of completing Kingdom Hearts."
Xaldin and Xemnas look at each other with determination in their eyes, knowing that with Sofia's amulet, they can complete Kingdom Hearts.
"Now, I have another mission for you." Xemnas reported "In the world you were in that night, there is a village known to its inhabitants as Dunwitty. I want you to attack that village to draw out that Keyblade wielder's attention, but do not injure any of the villagers. If you see the boy, kill him. Luxord and Vexen will accompany you on your mission."
"I understand. I will not fail you again." Xaldin said as he disappears from Xemnas' sight.
Meanwhile, it was 7:30 in the morning. When the sun beams reached Mason in the guest room King Roland had given him, he immediately got up, got dressed, and went down to the dining room on the first floor for breakfast. When he got to the dining room, he sees Sofia and her family waiting for him to join them.
"Ah, Mason. You made it. Come and join us for breakfast." King Roland said.
"Thank you, Roland." Mason thanked as he sat next to Sofia. It was then a tall, yet elderly man with short, gray hair wearing a black suit with a red bowtie walks in to the dining room.
"Good morning, Baileywick." King Roland greeted.
"Good morning, Your Majesty." Baileywick replied. "May I ask who your guest is?"
"Why, certainly." King Roland answered "Baileywick, this is Mason Gray. Mason, this is Baileywick, our castle steward."
"I see. Then it's an honor to meet you, Master Mason." Baileywick greeted "And how did you meet Sofia?"
"Oh, I saved her from being kidnapped by a man in a black coat." Mason answered.
"Oh my. Is this true?" Baileywick asked with a surprised look.
"I'm afraid so." Mason answered with a serious look.
"That man should get what he deserves." Queen Miranda replied.
"He sure does. In fact, he fled into some dark portal after I beat him." Mason added in agreement.
"Then it was a good thing you came into the kingdom, Mason." Baileywick thanked as he checks his pocket watch. "Now, I suggest you hurry. You're going to be late for school."
"Shoot! He's right. Let's go!" James exclaimed as he, Sofia, and Amber took their stuff and left the dining room in a hurry.
"Come on, Mason! We'll start our tour at the school." Sofia called out as she ran out the front door.
"Coming!" Mason reported as he followed Sofia to her school.
20 minutes later…
Mason arrives at Royal Prep with Sofia, Amber, and James. The exterior of the school was blue with a bright purple roof. And in the schoolyard was a tall, white clock tower with a white flag flowing at the top.
"This is where you go to school?!" a surprised Mason asked.
"Yes it is. Welcome to Royal Prep Academy." Sofia answered.
"It looks amazing." Mason said in awe.
"That's how I reacted when I saw the academy on my first day." Sofia said. "I'll introduce you to my friends after school."
"Okay. I'll be waiting outside if you're looking for me. See you, Sofia." Mason said.
"See you, Mason." Sofia replied as she, Amber, and James entered the school.
While Mason waits for Sofia, Amber, and James to finish school, in the village of Dunwitty, a dark corridor opens in the central square and out of the corridor comes Xaldin and two other people in black coats. On Xaldin's left was a man with short blond hair and a goatee of the same color and on his right was another man with long platinum blond hair with two bangs framing his face. Xaldin turns to the two men after the corridor closes behind them.
"Luxord, Vexen, listen up. Our master told us not to injure any of the villagers. He only wants us to cause enough damage to lure the Keyblader here and then kill him. Understand?" Xaldin asked.
"Oh, we understand, Xaldin." Luxord answered as he pulls out a deck of playing cards.
"This will be easy." Vexen added as he summoned a blue and silver pointed shield.
"Let the fun begin." Xaldin finished as he summoned his six lances.
To be continued…
Me: Sorry to leave you on a cliffhanger, but I promise you that the next chapter will have all the action.
James: We understand. Plus, those Organization XIII people look evil.
Mason: They're supposed to be evil.
Me: Thank you Mason. You readers please review. Peace!
