After I did a little training. I went to bed along with everyone else, but I couldn't sleep so I stayed up and went to the beach. I sat down on the sand and looked into the sea. The moon's reflection was dancing over the water and it was a great view. Then a question popped in my head.
Hey Ray. Why does everyone say and think that the darkness is evil?
Well the darkness swallows everything and leaves nothing left. With the darkness around you can't see what's in front or behind you. Why do you ask?
Well, it's just that the darkness doesn't seem to be the only bad thing. I mean come on if it wasn't for the darkness then we wouldn't have a view like this while the light hides it. True that you can't see with the darkness and the unknow is pretty terrifying, but the light and dark are two halves of the same coin. One can't exist without the other and when the two work together they can make a nothing look spectacular just like the moon shining through the night.
Wow.
What?
It's just that I never thought of the darkness like that and I think you are totally right.
Thanks Ray. Hey I'm gonna do some more training until I get tired.
Ok, but don't push yourself. Everyone haves limits.
Got it!
After my conversation with Ray I did some push ups , sit ups, and then sung my sword for a bit. That's when I noticed a storm coming to the islands.
It's time.
Yeah. Let's do this.
I then noticed Riku walking to his usual spot where the Paopu tree was. I decided to fallow him.
"Yo Riku! What are you doing here?" I asked even I knew the answer, but I was curious about what he would say.
"Jesse! What are you doing here?" He asked in response to my question.
"I couldn't sleep so I decided to go to the beach and enjoy the view. What about you and don't try to dodge the question again." I said.
"I'm hear to say goodbye to the island." Riku said to me with a smile on his face.
"I see. Eh, guess I should do the same, huh?" I asked with a sad smile on my own face.
"Yeah I suggest you should." Riku told me. "Hey Jesse can you promise me something?"
"Well I can't guarantee it, but I'll try the best I can." I replied with a confused look. "What is it?"
"I want you to look after Sora and Kairi for me. I mean you know how much of a handful Sora is and Kairi is just as much." Riku had such a sad smile on his face when he said this like he didn't want to do what he's gonna do.
"Well that's a big order, but I'll do the best I can. Promise." I told Riku with a big smile on my face.
"Thanks that means a lot to me. Really, thanks." Riku said with a relief sigh.
"No problem Riku. Anyway Imma wait for Sora. I'm sure he saw the storm coming."
"Ok. Cya later Jesse." Riku then ran off to his usual spot and I went back to the beach.
As I sat down again I saw the world glitch again and everything stopped.
"What do you want now?" I asked already knowing who it is.
The Voider replied "I want to talk and call me Dark."
"About?" I said with a calm voice
"It's about who me and Ray are." Dark pauses for minute awaiting for my reply. When I said nothing he continued. "I am your dark side and I'm suppose to make you succumb to the darkness. Ray is your light side and is suppose to protect you from falling to the darkness at all costs. Our purpose is to watch or you and see what you chose."
"I see. So are both champions who failed or is that a cover up or something?" I reply still surprisingly calm.
"Also base on your choice, your keyblade will appear and it usually takes days to get to that point. And to answer your question we don't know who we are exactly." Dark continued. "But what I do know is that we are reincarnated when we truly die and a piece of our memory stays with us to teach who ever we end up with until they are at the point to be a so called true champion."
"So what is a true champion like?" I asked.
"True champs are a force to be recon with. They can become so powerful that they can erase entire timelines with snap of there fingers." After Dark finished his sentence he saw that the storm was almost here. "We should get ready."
"One more question. How does one get there mark or symbol? And does it feel when you have it?" I asked. After I asked I felt my left eye burning, but it didn't hurt. Instead it felt calming and it filled me with power.
"I believe you already know what it feels like and how to get it." Dark replied with a smirk on his face. "Now lets get ready it's time."
After Dark said that I got up and pick up my wooden blade. I then closed my eyes and tightened my grip on my sword. My sword then glowed and turned into the white katana from my dreams.
I look down on my hand to confirm that my weapon was here. I then walked over to the cave next to the water fall. As I expected there was a Keyhole on the door that could never open.
My blade then moved on its own and pointed to the keyhole. A beam shot out of the blade and hit the door. Then everything went white. I then shut my eyes to at least lessen the pain of the bright light. When I opened them I was on a single platform with everything destroyed and flying around. The platform I was destroyed and I was falling.
"Woah! What's happening?!" I yelled seeing that something was extremely off. Dark side was suppose to appear not the platform being destroyed.
BEHIND YOU!
When I heard Ray's voice I looked behind me to find a more humanoid Dark side. I then saw a piece of a platform right next to me and so I landed on it. I used the platform as a surf board.
"COME AT ME CHAPION!" Said a dark and booming voice. "SHOW ME WHAT YOU CAN DO!"
It took me a second to realize that it was the Heartless that said those words.
I decided to go full throttle and give him what he asked. I gave a small smirk and I don't know why, but I felt pumped and ready to take him out.
I made my way towards the Heartless and when I got close I back flipped off my platform and watched it ram right into its face. It felt so satisfying seeing the pain on his face. Even though it didn't roar out of pain I could still tell that it was in so much pain.
The Heartless recovered after a while and shot three dark energy blasts form its mouth. I started dodging the dark energy, but I failed to notice that i was flying and my skin were slowly turning into scales. The scales were a dark purple like color and I could hear a voice in the back of my head.
Go! Show him what we are capable of!
I smirked and my left eye started to burn, but there was no pain at all. Instead I was filled with power and it continued to grow more and more.
The Heartless then shot dark energy at me one more time, but it was way stronger this time. Instead of dodging I flew straight into it with my sword ready to strike. The dark energy collided with me and created a huge explosion. Then there was a flame inside the smoke and instead of the smoke clearing it was burned. The fire that burned the smoke came from my blade and amplified my flame.
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU?!?!" yelled the Heartless with fear clear in its voice.
I yelled back, but my voice was echoed over by anothers. "YOU SHOULD KNOW! IM THE DARK MASTER MALEFOR! NOW COWER IN FEAR!"
As I got close my flames turned to a dark purple and I swung it right into the Heartless' face thus cutting it in half and burning it to a crisp. Then there was a bright light and everything went blank.
I don't know what happened after the fight, but all I knew I was falling. While I was falling I heard a voice in my head.
You know we make a good team. Can't wait for you call for my help again.
Who are you?
You'll know soon enough. Until then just relax. You need to rest after useing that much power.
After the Mysterious voice finished speaking I started feeling sleep take over me.
