AN: Sorry this took so long to come out, my sister has been in town and I've been spending a lot of time with her.
Lea
"Cloud, I hate to ask this of you, but I need you to come with us to that world." The King said, looking up at the angry man with hope in his eyes. "The thing is I believe you're what Roxitas sent us here to fi…"
"I'll go!" Cloud interjected, hatred growing in his eyes. "That girl was wearing an organization cloak, and based on what Sora told me that's their castle."
"Yeah it is, but the question is how do we get up there." Squall said, walking past the rest of us to get a closer look.
"We don't." I said, putting my hand on his shoulder. "You and your men need to stay here incase those organization wannabes decide to attack. Cloud, the King, and I can handle Twilight Town."
"No, where ever my men go, I go to." He said, shrugging my hand off of his shoulder. "That's what a leader does."
"Then go with you men back to your castle, because I quit." Cloud said as he clenched his fist. "Now protect your god damn kingdom, got it."
Squal tried to retort, but the king stopped him by putting his hand on his knee. "We've got this Leon. Besides, we've already got some friends up there."
Roxitas
I continued to hack through Dusks, our ragtag group of warriors pressed up against a wall in the shopping district. "How long do you think you guys can keep this up?" I asked, looking around at my friends.
"At least twice as long as you can Kid, I've got plenty of gas left in the tank." Seifer answered, slicing through three more of the white cloaked figures.
"Well then I'll be going four times as long as him then." Hayner said as he blocked another volley of attacks from the Dusks.
"Well I'm almost out of energy, I'm not sure I can make it much longer." Namine answered, halfheartedly parrying a jab from one of the enemy.
"Good to know we're all on the same page then." I said, catching an attack from a dusk with my blades before grabbing another with my feet and spinning them into shreds. "It's going to take a miracle if we want to beat these guys."
And as if he could hear me Leas Keyblade flew down through the army of Dusks and burnt the first few rows into cusps. "Did someone call for a miracle?" He said as he flipped off his Keyblade vehicle, grabbing both of his blades before he hit the ground. He was quickly followed by the King and Cloud who had apparently gained a Keyblade of his own.
"I did." I said, walking up to my friend and dropping my Keyblade to grab his right hand the way we had back in the organization. "So what do you say we take these guys out just like we did when we were training?"
"Sounds fun to me." He answered with that old smirk of his back on his face. "You seem different."
"Let's just say something jogged my memory of how good a friend you are." I said, before drawing my Keyblade back out.
"Hey, this reunions touching and all, but what do you say we get back to kicking but?" Seifer suggested rather loudly from a few feet behind us.
"Good idea Seifer, but won't it be hard for you to get back to doing something you never did in the first place?" I asked, smiling back at him.
"Real funny Roxas, but this isn't the time for jokes." He said, before charging back into the battle, Hayner close at his heels.
I smirked up at Lea before flinging myself into the battle with renewed energy. 'If I can remember her, maybe he can too, maybe we can all go back to having ice cream like we used to.' I thought to myself as I spun through the army of Dusks. 'I'm sure of it, the three off us can go back to the way things used to be. What's gonna stop us, it's not like the organization is going to split us up this time.'
Before I knew it the entire shopping district and sandlot had been cleared out and all that remained was the forest, but we were in no condition to go in there.
The entire teams close were torn in multiple places, and were either lying on the ground, leaning against a wall, or bent over with their hands on their knees.
"Even if Terra, Aqua, and Ventus showed up with another Keyblade wielder we couldn't get through the organizations castle." I said, looking around at all of us. I was about to sugest we head back to the secret base when my eyes fell on Lea and Namine sitting together nearly unconscious. "I think I have a plan though."
"Really, what is it?" Hayner said, turning from the wall to look at me. "Because if it involves me getting my energy back I'm all in."
"I'm afraid you'd have to talk to Namine about that, she's better at magic than I am." I said, zipping up my coat. "But it'll balance the playing field a little bit."
"They have an army, how do you plan to balance that playing field?" Seifer asked, standing up strait from where he was bent over.
"By making one of our own." I said, flipping my hood onto my head and looking over at Namine.
"What are you suggesting." She said, looking up at me with worry in her eyes. "Please say you're not suggesting what I think you are."
"I'm sorry, but it's the only way." I said, drawing Void Gear and Two Become One. "See when Vanitas and Roxas merged to create me, Roxas took dominance, but I have the ability to choose who's personality is more dominate. If Vanitas is at the helm so to speak, I'll have the ability to summon the Unversed and make them do my bidding."
"That's insane, you can't do that!" Lea shouted, standing up and walking towards me before Cloud blocked his path.
"What happens if you no longer desire to help us when Vanitas is in control?" The Blonde man asked, his blue eyes piercing through my hood.
"I want you to kill me."
Roxas
I stood on Roxitas's heart, half populated by mine and half by Vanitas. Across from me was the dark haired teen who'd changed a great deal since we'd merged together.
His hair had become longer and more wild in the front, while becoming shorter and darker in the back, bringing to mind the appearance of a young lion. "It looks like it's your turn to make the final decision."
"About time too." He smirked at me, an evil gleam in his eyes. "Don't worry, I'll make sure to get that Xion girl back, no matter the cost."
?
We ran down the long white hall, slashing down the Heartless in our way before we reached the large white door. We through it open and saw an infinite white expanse with Oni sitting at a grand piano, and Ventus now wearing a cloaked version of his old shirt standing next to her with a smile on his face, but a frown in his eyes.
Oni began to pluck at the keys of the piano and then she started singing. "Long ago, when our eyes used to shine, and I was yours, and you were mine. Once I told you why the sun sets red, I know that I'll never forget. Now you're gone, but the sun still sets in the sky, so at dusk, I will always think of you. Do you think we could ever turn back time someday? You and me, will we ever be the same? Once upon a time, in my dreams, I reached for you, and you reached for me. Waking up is the hardest thing to do, because in my dreams, I have you. Since you're gone, and the sun still sets in the sky, at dusk, I will always think of you."
