*I'm walking towards Ryan's room to give him his new Wolf Scythe when I hear Kevin, Amber, Ulrich, and Daisy talking. I put the Wolf Scythe on the wall and put my ear to the door to listen in*
Kevin: So what you're saying is that in his first story, he had me put under a mind control spell?
Amber: Yeah.
Kevin: And once Sofia was in that cell, she finds out I was faking it?
Ulrich: That's right.
Kevin: Hmm. That makes complete sense.
?: Archer, is it?
*I jump upon hearing that voice and turn to see Mordecai and his friends standing behind me.*
Me: Oh. It's you guys.
Skips: What's going on?
Me: I'll explain this while I work on this chapter. You readers enjoy.
The 7 Medallions
Chapter 33: Storming the Castle
After being blinded by a bright light, the three Keyblade Masters find themselves in the Station of Awakening. They look around for a good 20 minutes until the same hooded boy appeared with two Keyblades in hand, Oathkeeper in his left and Oblivion in his right.
"Sora, what is this place?" Mason asked.
"I don't know, but it looks like we're in my head." Sora pondered. The cloaked boy charged at the three. Sora, Riku, and Mason block the attack with their Keyblades.
"I'll ask you again, who are you?" Mason demanded.
"Someone from the dark." The hooded boy replied as he pushed them away. Then, Riku suddenly remembered something.
"Wait, I remember you. You're that hooded guy that beat me when I lost control of the darkness within me." Riku said. The hooded boy chuckles at that.
"I'm surprised you'd actually remember me." The hooded boy said.
"Hold on. You fought this guy before?" Mason asked Riku.
"It's a very long story." Riku answered.
"Now, tell me. Tell me why he picked you." The hooded boy demanded as he charged towards three, dragging his Keyblades across the glass floor, creating small sparks along the way. Sora, Riku, Mason, and the hooded figure all engage in a three-on-one Keyblade duel.
Sora and Mason swing their respective Keyblades at the hooded figure, but he continuously blocked the attacks. Riku tries a strike from above, but the figure anticipated this and dodged in time. He ran at full speed towards the three and swung his Keyblades, but Mason knocked him up into the air. He recovers from the attacks and starts to float above. The figure looks down at the three Keyblade Masters.
"I see. That's why." The hooded boy said. He then rushed down to them and started attacking wildly. Sora and Mason attempt to block the attacks, but the figure was swinging his Keyblades like a berserker and at the moment Mason lets his guard down, he knocks Sleeping Lion out of his hands. He runs over to get it, but the hooded boy intercepted him and pins it to the floor with Oathkeeper. He points Oblivion at him, ready to finish this fight. Mason growls in anger, but then remembered something vital to him. He reaches his right and out and focuses. Seconds later, Mason's Keyblade disappeared from the figure's trap. He looks down to see that it's gone.
"What?!" The hooded boy asked. He didn't have enough time to react as Mason slashed the figure immeadiately. The figure dropped the Keyblades as they faded away. He starts to slowly walk past them and drops to his knees. The hood comes down to reveal he has golden blond hair, blue eyes, and white skin.
"R-Roxas?" Sora asked. Roxas gets up from his knees and crack a small smile.
"Riku, Mason, your friends are your strength." Roxas said. Riku and Mason look at each other before looking back at the defeated Roxas.
"Sora, you make a good other." Roxas said before the three disappeared from the Station of Awakening. Seconds later, they reappear in front of Memory's Skyscraper in the Dark City.
"You make a good other." Sora repeated Roxas's final words.
"I wonder what that was about." Mason said.
"Beats me." Riku replied.
"You're back." A voice said. The three turned around to see all of their friends gathered.
"What happened?" Riku asked.
"Don't know. You three just vanished. Then, we all had to fight some Heartless." James answered.
"Who was that guy you encountered earlier?" Rancis asked.
"Someone in a black coat. He had Keyblades, like us. Riku remembered that he once fought him and lost." Mason answered rhetorically.
"Even I thought I'd never lose. Guess I was wrong after what happened." Riku added.
"A black coat must mean Organization XIII. He must be trying to deceive you." Danny pointed out.
"You're right, Danny. Even so, we must press on. Let's go." Mason said as he leads the others to the Castle That Never Was. Upon reaching their destination, they find themselves at what appears to be a dead end.
"That is one humongous castle." Vanellope said in awe.
"Yeah. How can we get in? There's no entrance." Gwen pointed out. They think for a good ten minutes until Sora came up with an idea.
"I think I have a way we can get in. Riku, Mason, care to help me on this?" Sora asked as his Kingdom Key materialized in his hand.
"You'd be insulted if I didn't." Mason answered as he summoned his Sleeping Lion.
"Same here." Riku added as his Way to the Dawn appeared in his hand. The three Keyblade masters pointed their Keyblades at the base of the castle. Then, three beams of light were shot from the blades and a transparent bridge appeared. The other heroes gasp in awe as they began to enter the castle.
"How are we going to find Kevin, Sofia, and the Medallions here?" Tucker asked quietly.
"Hmm, we should send a small search party to look for them. We don't want to draw their attention now that we're in their stronghold." Mason suggested. Scarlet tries to focus on the Amulet of Avalor's current location.
"She's in the dungeon on the west wing." Scarlet reported.
"West wing. Got it. Lantern, Flash, Scarlet, you three and the ghost hunters head there and find Sofia. The rest of us will head towards the top. We'll rendezvous at the center of the castle." Mason directed. Green Lantern and the Phantoms flew out towards the west wing while Flash sprinted to the dungeon at lightning fast speed. The other heroes left towards the Hall of Empty Melodies.
Green Lantern, Scarlet, Flash, Danny, and Dani are heading towards the west wing dungeons, eliminating Heartless and Nobodies along the way. Flash is maintaining his speed so Lantern, Scarlet, and the Phantoms can stay with him.
"Don't wait for us, Barry. Go!" Lantern commanded. Flash nods at that and increased his running speed. Suddenly, they hear someone crying.
"Hold it." Dani said. The others stopped and hovered to the ground as Flash ran back to them. "Did any of you hear that?"
"Hear what?" Flash asked. Seconds later, they hear the same person cry. They turn to the closest cell where the crying came from and inside was a girl. She had auburn hair, indigo eyes, and a pale complexion. She wore a white halter top with a black hood under a pink strapless mini-dress with three zippers, two of them being decorative, three bracelets on her left wrist, a black suspender-like belt with a notebook-shaped bag attachment, and lilac sneakers.
"Excuse us." Danny said. The girl looks up to see the four.
"Who… are you?" The girl asked.
"I'm Green Lantern. This is Flash,, Scarlet, Danny, and Danielle. What's your name?" Green Lantern asked.
"K-Kairi." The girl answered nervously.
"Kairi. That's a nice name." Dani complimented.
"Why are you in here?" Danny asked.
"I don't know. One minute, I was in Radiant Garden, the next, I wound up here." Kairi answered.
"Strange. Look for anyone else who's in here." Green Lantern commanded the others.
"Got it." Flash responded as he, Scarlet, and the Phantoms searched the cells.
"So tell me, Kairi, did you see somebody else come in here?" Green Lantern asked.
"Well, I did see a young girl come in here earlier. I don't remember what she looked like, but she did wear a lovely amulet." Kairi answered calmly. Green Lantern started to remember what Kairi told him. Then he put the pieces together.
"Sofia." Green Lantern thought to himself as Danny searched a cell near Kairi's.
"Over here! I found her." Danny reported. The other three regroup in front of Sofia's cell to see Sofia. She looks up and sees her friends standing outside.
"Guys!" Sofia cried as she ran to the bars.
"How will we get you out of there?" Flash asked.
"Stand back." Scarlet said as the others stepped away from the bars. Scarlet broke down the door of Sofia's cell and then walked in.
"Scarlet!" Sofia cheered as she hugged her mentor/guardian. "I'm so sorry. They have the Medallions. I am so sorry."
"No, Sofia. None of us saw it coming."
"Forgive me, master. I have failed you." Sofia gave her an ashamed master's bow.
"No. If the Organization succeeds in shrouding the multiverse in eternal darkness, then I will have failed you." Scarlet said softly. "I just called Ryu. Now get your game face on."
Sofia nodded and snapped her fingers, changing her gown to a purple sleeveless skintight outfit. She then pulled out her spear and Dream Rod simultaneously. As they stepped out of the cell, they see Kevin standing face-to-face.
Me: There. As I was saying, Kevin's pretty much mad at me for making him temporarily evil and I was afraid to apologize myself, so I sent some of my friends to do that in my stead.
Kevin: *walks in* You don't need to apologize, man. I understand you completely.
Me: Really?
Kevin: Yeah. It must have surprised a lot of us here to see me turn evil.
Me: I'm glad you understand what I had to go through to finish this chapter.
Rigby: Yeah he did.
Benson: Archer, you are very modest.
Me: Thanks Benson. It means a lot coming from you. *alarm goes off in my watch* Oops. I better get to work on my other stories. You readers review. Peace out!
