A/N: The time has come to me to settle a score with Rasputin. The final battle is here. How will this end? Will the darkness defeat the light? Or will the light overcome the darkness? Only one way to find out. Better grab some popcorn, cause it's about to get off in here!

World: The Forsaken Void


My footsteps echo through out this large and empty chamber. The Audience Chamber is exactly how it is when I saw it in my memories at Castle Oblivion. However, it's still voidful colored like the rest of this castle, and all the banners hanging on the walls have a big X painted over the logo.

I start walking down the chamber, heading towards the throne. He is there, sitting upon it like some king, especially with my fathers crown resting on top his head. Who does he think he is? Making himself king?

Rasputin looks down at me as I approach. I stop once I'm like in front of the steps, looking at Rasputin with anger.

"You have come this far. This deep into the darkness. Hmm..." Rasputin smirks. "Such wondrous power you carry. To think a single LeiShen had the power to defeat the most powerful Heartless ever created. Dive into the Dark Realm to save a friend, and fight through thousands of dark forces to make it back to his own home."

Rasputin chuckles. "You must answer for your crimes, traitor."

Rasputin smile disappears. "I am not the traitor!" Rasputin stands up from the throne. "Its your people who are the real traitors! I was once the most mystical man in the kingdom! But then the LeiShens betrayed me and put me on exile! I was banished from all worlds, imprisoned in the Realm of Darkness itself."

"Then how did you escape?" I ask.

"Xehanort has given me the power to leave the darkness. However, I could only temporary leave the darkness. Not until I destroy all of the LeiShens, then the power will be complete and I shall be free from my prison." Rasputin says.

"I suppose that explains how you got dragged into darkness before you had the chance to destroy me." I say.

"Indeed, child." Rasputin says. "Tell me. How does it feel to be back home after all these years?" I see what Rasputin's trying to do. He's trying to psych me out. Make me lose my focus so he can kill me. "Do you miss your people...don't you really regret leaving them all behind. Forsaken. Destroyed. Not to mention killing them when they became Ragnarok!"

"I know what you're trying to do, you're not going to fool me." I say. "You are a monster, Rasputin. You use to serve the light. But then you turned to the darkness. All for what? Power! Because of your own actions, the LeiShens banished you. You blame them for your own misery because you refuse to see the actions of your own behavior."

Rasputin is silent. He doesn't say anything for a while. Then he finally speaks. "You remind me so much of your arrogant father. You're a fool just like he is. The light is weak! Darkness is all power!" Thunder strikes when he shouts 'power' "And I shall prove it to you! Now my dark purpose will be fulfilled and the last of the LeiShen's will DIE!"

Rasputin raises his hand, the Chaos Ripper Keyblade appears in his hand. Both the Keyblade and the Eye of Chaos pulses with dark energy. Six dark spires bursts out of the ground, surround me in a wide radius. The spires sparkle in dark electricity, sending bolts of lightning down at me.

I leap back, avoiding one of the bolts. Rasputin steps down from the throne, getting into position to summon. I glare at him, then summon my Keyblade and get into fighting position as well.

I start by charging at Rasputin. Rasputin parries my attack, but I give him an under cut afterwards. Rasputin staggers back from the attack and growls. He casts Duskga towards me. I block the dark spell with Holy Shield, then do a Strike Raid shortly afterwards.

Rasputing dodges the attack, only the incoming one. What he failed to realize is that the Keyblade would hurl back. End up getting hit by the return attack. I cast Quakeja, sending them flying in the air. I dodge more of the lightning spire. Rasputin charges towards me as I am dodging. I parry his on coming attack.

"Why do you serve the Light when you carry the power of darkness within you?" Rasputin asks.

"Light and Darkness are eternal! They cannot live without each other." I repel Rasputin's attack. "I keep my light and darkness balance. That's what makes me strong."

"Lies! Darkness is the true essence of power! And I shall prove it to you!" Rasputin holds his Keyblade up, channeling dark energy. The Keyblade absorbs the power within the spires. The spires crumble and fall apart. Rasputin is coated in darkness as the power flows through him.

In the end, he grows dark magic wings in the shape of demon wings, horns and claws. "Yes! Yes! This is true power! THE POWER OF THE DARKNESS!"

I shout as I charge towards Rasputin. Rasputin, how wielding his Keyblade with one hand, strikes. I duck and give him a slash. Rasputin didn't stagger much from that hit. He grabs me by the throat, dark magic pulsing through his hand. The darkness pains me, then he tosses me back.

I crash on the ground a couple of feet away. I get up quickly. I cast Firaja. The burning magic hits Rasputin, then I do Sonic Blade. I enter Fever Pitch in the end. Rasputin leaps towards me. "Die Leishen!" When he lands, he causes a small explosion of dark magic. Dark Dive.

I heal myself with Curaga then continue attacking Rasputin. I cast Shining Prism. Rasputin suffers a lot from it. I can tell that Rasputin is weakened by the light. After Shining Prism, I cast Explosion, then enter Heaven's Light.

Rasputin quickly recovers then does Dark Winds, which is similar to my Twilight Winds only with just darkness. I block with my Holy Shield, then I strike at Rasputin viciously. Rasputin blocks some of my attacks, then strikes me. I stagger some.

"Everything belongs to the darkness!" Rasputin says as he begins casting Dark Nova.

I dodge out of the way, then rush towards Rasputin with Shadow Dash. "Too slow!" Rasputin stands strong against that attack. Once I finish the Shadow Dash, he attacks me. I cast Halo to heal myself and hurt Rasputin, then I unleash Heaven's Light. That did a serious number on Rasputin.

I shout as I charge towards Rasputin. Rasputin charges back at me. Our weapons clash in the middle of the room. We glare into each other up close, then I shout and start pushing Rasputin with all my strength. I push him until I slam him against the throne.

"You are just a child! Swaggering around! Forgetting your own people! Wasting your life just to save a little girl from the darkness!" I know he's talking about Aqua. I would doubly call her 'little girl'. "You think you are clever? You're a fool!" Rasputin repels my weapon. He strikes at me twice. I dodge them then parry the third.

"No! You are the real fool!" I bark at him. "You think everything belongs to the darkness? All it does is cause misery and suffering! The light! It guides us! It protects us! You failed to see it all cause all you ever care about is power! You don't care about anyone or anything, not even about your own self being! You even sold your own soul! All for power!"

I shift my weapon and strike, disarming Rasputing, sending his Keyblade in the air. Rasputin looks at me surprise. "You want power?" I pull my Keyblade back, it charging in twilight energy. "I'll give you power!"

I yell in rage then jab my Keyblade, directly at his dark. Rasputin gasps in agony, as the twilight energy counters with his darkness. Rasputin yells as he starts melting. He slowly melts until he's nothing more then a black puddle.

"It's done." I step back, looking at the puddle. My Keyblade vanishes then I turn and walk away.

I have defeated Rasputin. The Shadowmoon are finish. Once I'm in the middle of the chamber, I freeze. Something is bugging me. I can still feel his cold dark presence. But that can't be. He's dead. I stabbed him right in the heart...Heart. Wait!

I have a horrible realization. I suddenly remember the conversation I had with Yen Sid. His words echo in my head:

'The Eye of Chaos. A powerful trinket that grants its wearer unimaginable power. Rasputin sold his soul for this trinket. It is his very life essence.'

Very life essence...I didn't destroy that necklace. I only destroyed his heart. In fear, I turn around, looking up. Rasputin's Keyblade float right above the dark puddle. The Keyblade turns, aiming its tip down then dives into the puddle.

This is bad.

The very ground rumbles and darkness bursts out of the puddle. A deep, sinister laughter echoes.

"Foolish LeiShen!" Something starts rising out of the large darkness. It starts out with large horns. "Darkness is everywhere! Darkness is our strength!" Then a large demonic face. A large claw fist raises out them slams on the ground, the impact causes me to shake and fall. "All worlds began in darkness! Darkness is the true essence! Darkness is everything!"

The dark figure only raises above its waist. It's like thirty feet tell, red and dark. Fiery eyes. Large demon wings. Devil horns. All muscular. Wielding a large Keyblade that's read with horns at the tip. And right on its chess is the Eye of Chaos.

"Rasputin?" I say in a horrified gasp. He is no longer Rasputin.

"Death! Destruction! Darkness! The very cycle of life itself! I am Chaos! By my wrath: All worlds! Everyone! Will return to the darkness from where they once came!"

I get back on my feet, summon my Keyblade. Now I'm fighting for my very life against Chaos itself.

Chaos starts with Damnation. "Join with the rest of your people!" Chaos channels a large burning orb of dark fire in its hands, then slams it on the ground, exploding in black flames all over the Audience Chamber. Now I see why it's called Damnation. It hurts like hell.

For my first move, I heal myself with Curaga. Then I use my Kairi Charm, activating the D-link. I jump high until I reach the Eye of Chaos then I attack at the artifact, which is sticked to Chaos's chest like a tattoo. Chaos doesn't stagger at all. Even though he suffers the damage, he acts like he can barely feel it. That's probably normal since he's large and muscular. I'm probably a rat to him.

I cast Wateja then do Destiny's Light. Chaos draws his Keyblade back then attacks me with a heavy strike. that attack was so powerful, it interrupted my channeling on Destiny's Light. I have a feeling long spells or abilities isn't so much of a good idea to use. I next do Faith, then I jump to attack Chaos.

"Suffer!" Chaos cast Chains of Anguish. In all directions, chains of darkness shackles me in place. I can barely move, then lightning courses through them, electrifying me. Hurts very much, then I was knocked back after the chains release me.

I cast Curaga then run back to Chaos. I continue attacking Chaos, a couple of strikes and unleash Tidal Wave. Chaos casts Dark Firaja. The black flames burns me, but I still remain concentrated on unleashing my power.

I continue attacking Chaos. I star off with Shimmer Spin then cast Blizzaja. Chaos begins Heartless Angel. "Salvation is frail and weak!" Chaos just snaps his fingers from his free hand, then three black angels with heart-shaped holes in their chests circles around me, spinning as they channel their magic.

I enter Spell Weaver, attacking Chaos. The dark magic coats me from the black angels. I cast Aeroja, that's when the Heartless Angel spell is complete. I suffer majorly and all of my power was drained. Chaos chuckles with delight.

"The pitiful light you call upon is powerless against me, LeiShen. End this foolishness!" Chaos says.

I take out an elixir from my pocket and drink it, restoring my lost strength. "No! I will NEVER give into the darkness!"

I continue attacking Chaos. Chaos does his attack, but I dodge the attack. I cast Thundaja then do Gaia-Explosion. I enter Elemental Mastery, attacking high speed on Chaos. My strikes are vicious against the monster. Then Chaos casts another Damnation. "Your struggle is meaningless!"

After the massive attack, I heal myself with Curaga, then continue attacking Chaos. Soon enough I reach my full power and unleash Elemental Mastery. Chaos does Soul Corruption. "Bow down!"

My body is tainted with darkness, causing an interference with my powers. I mostly attack with just my Keyblade. Whenever I try casting magic or do an ability, they stop half way. For magic, the elements change to their opposites, like Quakeja does wind damage instead.

I use my Terra Charm, activating the D-linking. I figured this time I should fight darkness with darkness. I start by casting Dark Firaga then Duskja. The fight is pretty brutal. Chaos constantly casts his hell spells and attacks to try and kill me. I either avoid them or dodge them.

I next do Chaos Blade. That one is pretty helpful cause I was able to avoid Duskja on the fourth combo. Chaos does Hellish Abyss. "Hope does not exist!"

The ground crumbles, creating quakes and burning spike bursts out of it. I strike Chaos hard in the Eye of Chaos. I do Firestorm, unleashing a rave of blazing flames directly on Chao's chest. Soon after, I unleash my full power and do Dark Impulse.

The battle against Chaos is hard. I am beginning to weaken from energy loss. I am in the center of the Audiance Chamber, panting in exhaustion while dropping to one knee. Chaos laughs evilly. He channels dark magic, ultimate, powerful, forbidden dark magic. In his hands is a large black orb, with red lightning coursing through it.

It's the chaotic spell: Apocalypse.

Chaos holds the large orb above, causing the ceil to be covered in dark clouds. Thunder rumbles within those clouds, then chaos rushes his hands downwards, causing large bolts of red lightning to strike me. I shout in agony as the incredible pain hits me, then I collapse, out cold and weak.

"Did you honestly believe that you could defeat me?" Chaos asks. "I am all powerful! I am the darkness itself! You are nothing more then a pitiful weakling, serving the very light that you and the rest of your people actually believe it protects you. Everything belongs to the darkness! There is no hope! No Faith! No Salvation! There is only power! Chaos! Destruction! Death! Darkness!"

My body twitches a little as I start to regain conscious. "The LeiShens are fools. 'Protecters of Kingdom Hearts'! 'Powerful Keyblade wielders'. They have witnessed true power of the darkness. The very light they served didn't protect them from my own wrath. Even your little friend has witnessed such power! Fifteen years she has wasted, fighting against it. She had a choice to serve the darkness and turn the LeiShen in, but she denied it. She has learned that the light is nothing but naught. And now! It is time you learn the truth as well!"

chaos channels dark magic through his one finger. Darkness appears right underneath me, and I slowly sink into it. I don't bother fighting against it. I have lost all of my energy. All of my will.

"HA! HA! HA! HA! LONG LIVE THE LEISHENS!"

I just sink into the darkness until it swallows me whole.
