Demise made his way towards the lab area where the helpless Ex-Keyblade user was left alone and vulnerable. Now that Andrew was out his way he can and will do what he wishes with the boy, and one of those things involves killing. Ever since Andrew befriended this idiot, he wanted the boy gone. It was his fault that the grip he had on his holder was loosen. The light doesn't mix well with the darkness, but now that he doesn't have his little keyblade light, everything will be that much easier.
Akemi let out a small sigh, debating if he should actually kill himself or live on like he was wanted to. It was nice of his friends to go ahead and save him like that, but the cost was to much. He just went back to where he started, maybe worse. He finally decides to just get up and see how this goes before making any rash choices. Dusting himself off, he paused to feel a dark aura walking to him. Usually he can feel this from miles away, when he was a keyblade user, but now he can only sense it when it's close and he can't escape. To make it worse, he recognize this aura from when he had his first life. Demise is and always will be out to get him, and him coming back to life makes no difference. This is probably something he's been wanting for a long time. Akemi prepared himself for the worse, waiting his demise. But then someone grabbed his wrist and pushed him back, he half expected it to be his protector- Break, but no. It was Dalton instead. His nobody is the one saving him, how weird. But no objections are made. Break did say he only protected the gifted ones, and he used most of then to get what he wants. He's probably with the other Keyblade users that are still alive and didn't die.
"Welcome back, but I don't see why you would want to come back" he said in his usual mono tone, looking back at the boy. Well, he looks more grown up from the last time he saw him, guess you still age in wherever the boy went to. So boy may not cut it anymore.
"I was kind of forced to-" he explained, but was cut off when the door was broken down by a dark force.
Which means he's here.
"This is an unusual turn of events, but no matter. Now you and your nobody will go" Demise said with a low growl, waving his hand to push Dalton away and press him on the wall. He then walks to the kid, and quickly grabs his neck, crushing it as his grip tightens.
Akemi can feel his bones in his neck slowly breaking, painfully cracking. If he was going to die this way, by Demise and Andrews hand, then it will be oddly satisfying. If Andrew is the one doing him in, then he would rather him than anyone else.
As soon as he was going to finally crush the boy, a knife like weapon with a chain attached pierced through the demons shoulder, then ripped out. A small chuckle was made from in the room and out came another figure, "I missed you, love. " He said with a small grin, but then looked at the opponent " I know I told you to come back to me if Andrew treated you wrong, but this isn't what I meant" the figure said with a playful smirk, and now with Demise eyes on this new person, the other nobody took his chance and froze the demon as soon as he could. Giving them all time to get a head start.
"Come on. The ice won't last to long" Dalton said as he opened up a portal to another world. This would be a wonderful quick escape if everyone hurries up.
When Akemi was let go, he froze for a moment and was hoisted up by Break who entered the portal, Dalton soon followed behind carefully. He checked back at Demise first before going inside. They where lucky. The demon is still getting use to taking over so his powers are not fully there yet, but soon it will be.
The new world they where in seems oddly familiar, but now it's all falling apart slowly. This place use to be big an mighty, but without the other nobodies to keep it nice, it just fell apart from the last battle they had.
Break features changed seeing this place, he can't say he missed this place one bit. He only thought he had to see this place is when the keyblade users finally took it down, but here he is again. Stuck here for now. "Remember this place, kid? Should bring back some memories for ya" Break said as he lowered the boy off his shoulder.
Akemi took a look around, bitterly smiling at everything around here. "Why did you two save me?" He asked bluntly, not caring if it was not or not. He can be thankful for this later.
The two protectors looked at each other, then Dalton spoke up first. "I didn't want my somebody to meet the same fate he did long ago" he answers calmly, crossing his arms over his chest.
Break just shrugged, "You know my reason. I make sure you gifted ones stay safe" he started but Akemi stopped him there.
"Gifted? I died, remember? I don't have that gift anymore." The boy said, confused on why he is still a 'gifted' one.
"Dead or alive, your still a Keyblade user. Your just in a bit of gloom right now. A dark place. So you blade won't come to you until you get that little hope and light you always use to have up" Break explained, flicking the younger boys head. "And I'd hate to say, but I miss your positive attitude. So if you don't mind, go back to that. Being like this is Andrews job" he made a small joke to lift the mood, which helped a little. Akemi managed to crack a smile because of it anyways.
"Thank you" he finally said, and took one final look around this place. The World That Never Was. The last world he ever got to venture to before his death. Isn't that great? "What now then?" He asked, looking at the other two.
Dalton spoke up now, "Usually you would want to save your friend again, right? That should be your plan, that and making sure he doesn't run a muck in other worlds" he said, guessing what his somebody was thinking already.
"Can we actually save him again? I mean, the first time he was on the brink of death just with the procedure. I don't want to kill him." Akemi looked to Break this time, knowing he knows a lot more about this than anyone else.
"Killing him might be the only option right now, kid. He's to far deep. If there was some way to bring him back, to gather those items and make him stand still for that moment will be nearly impossible" Break said, crossing his arms as he thinks about it.
"But it is possible, yes?" Akemi asked, desperately wanting to save Andrew again. He doesn't want him to suffer like he did in the past, but only this time the suffering is timed by a lot of darkness added in.
"More or less. But it will be difficult to get, the procedure alone can kill him, and getting the items can kill you again. I don't think- your not listening are you?" The guardian asked, looking at Akemi who's in thought right now.
"We been though worse. Besides, I get to go on another adventure with you and now my nobody. Should that be fun?" The keyblade user asked, grinning brightly as he thought about that. He's returning to his old self again little by little, and with the light returning so is his ability over light as well, meaning the keyblade.
A glowing light appeared in his hand, and formed his keyblade that was assigned to him. But only the first stage, meaning he will have to earn and grow to get the others he once had.
"Down the dangerous path we go" Akemi said with a smirk on his face, making the other two nod in agreement.
Now to get these items, they would have to travel to the heart of each world and take a Crystal of sort and break a small bit off of each world. That is the life of it, it's what keeps everything going. With it, it should be pure enough to fuse all of them together and remove the demon once and for all. Well of course it won't be that easy. Each world had it's guardians that protects the life force, get pass them and earn it is the only way to get it. But that's not including obstacles, enemies, and a maze they go through to pass each one.
Break didn't include this since he doesn't want to discourage the boy now. He will see for himself very soon. Maybe by then, he will have more help than this. They are going to need two other keyblade users anyways to fuse the crystals together anyways.
Oh how fun this will all be.
Demise POV:
In the ice, a small growl came through it and then it all shattered into small bits. He looked in the direction the portal once was, "There's always someone getting in the way, but no matter. I can attend to other thing while the hero has his fun" the demon said, opening up a portal of his own and leaving this world to head to more defenseless and easy to get rid of worlds. He won't get rid of then completely, but he will have his fun running a muck inside the world, and find what he's looking for as well.
If he can bring back that brat easily like that, then others can be brought back just as easy. He's going to need others after all, especially the ones that have the know how of bringing back the creatures that once use to roam around, well before these Keyblade users took them all outs. Annoying idiots.
