Chapter CCXXXVII: The Fragmented Revelations Part IV

Running forwards at top speed down the seemingly never ending corridor, Riku was determined to get where he was needed! He had to get to Nozomi no matter what! With this fierce desire fuelling him, he could finally see the targeted door Oralee had described to him!

Seeing he was close he uttered, "Nozomi I'm coming!" Then as he spoke those words, he felt a sensation of darkness! Looking on, he could sense the terrible Lockdra spell that was sealing the door shut. As he did so, he whispered to himself, "So? That's how it is, huh?" Quickly knowing his keyblade wouldn't work, he knew there was only one thing for it, "Time for some brutal magic force of my own!" With that he aimed his right hand at the door and shouted, "Firaga!"

KABOOM!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Shivering as Wairu was coming closer and closer to her lips, now holding her firmly down so she couldn't struggle against him anymore. Nozomi was terrified, shivering she couldn't help but think to herself, 'Please someone help me!' However more than any other person, there was one she wanted to appear above all others, 'Riku!'

KABOOM!

Spooked, as Wairu himself turned himself away from her to look behind them. It was then they both saw the smouldering hole that had been created by the powerful fire spell. Seeing this sight, Nozomi herself was puzzled and still shaken, while Wairu himself was clearly irritated and clenching his right hand tightly, he uttered something quickly under his breath. Hurriedly though making it into the room through the cratered hole, Riku cried out, "Nozomi! Are you alright!? Are you-!"

It was then though that the white haired keyblader froze, for there he saw that lying on the floor, was Nozomi with Wairu straddling her middle as she looked at him terrified with tears streaming down from her eyes as the flower of darkness was blooming and pulsating from within her chest. Seeing this sight, he was shocked but then he heard her ask, "Riku?"

Hearing the shudder of terror and sorrow that was in her voice, Riku felt something snap inside of himself as he turned his focus to the one who'd forced this terrible state upon his beloved comrade. In seconds tightening his grip on his keyblade he cried out madly, "YOU!" With that he launched forwards!

However moving himself first, Wairu turned his clenched right fist in Riku's direction and doing so-!

SPLASH!

Suddenly a huge bubble wrapped around and entrapped Riku! As this occurred, the keyblader cried out in alarm, "What is-!?"

Looking on in horror herself, Nozomi saw that the bubble quickly filled with water trapping Riku with no way now with him to breathe! Immediately, she cried out, "Riku!?"

Wairu looking on himself couldn't help but say smugly with a smile gracing his features, "This should be a suitable end!"

However, Nozomi didn't want this and cried out, "Wairu please stop this!" Then seeing that the person she cherished so much, struggle to hold his breath and bang the inside of his prison with his keyblade, she could see he wouldn't survive if this continued. She had to do something! "Please this isn't fair! You can't do this! You can't!"

"But I can," came Wairu's cold heartless reply.

Staring on at him quietly, Nozomi couldn't read him. She didn't know then if Wairu would really do the unbelievable. Would he deliberately end a life like this so callously? She knew he was tainted by darkness there was no doubt about that, but looking to Riku hopelessly and desperate she didn't want to believe he could possibly reach the lowest depths of depravity like this! He couldn't! He-!

"You are right though, this isn't fair."

Distracted, Nozomi turned her attention back to Wairu and as she did so she looked on at him silently. Not sure of what to say or do, for if she angered him he would kill Riku for sure, but seeing the person she treasured suffering he would die either way if she didn't do something! She hated this feeling of powerlessness, why couldn't she be strong like-!?

"I better put on a better show," Wairu then told her clearly amused.

As this was told to her, Nozomi repeated puzzled, "Show?"

However Wairu didn't give her clarity, instead he floated away into the air with Riku in hand still trapped within his bubble. As he did so disappearing through the open balcony window together, Nozomi cried out, "Wait! What're you-!?"

FLASH!

Suddenly above Nozomi's head, the ceiling became transparent and somehow she could see the black starless sky above! But she was still frozen to the floor!? What was going on?! However she didn't get time to think anymore as the show that Wairu had promised her was beginning to play out...

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

SPLASH!

Coughing loudly as he collapsed onto the cold floor that were the tiles of the roof, Riku spluttered until he gasped asking, "That power!? That was-!"

"Yes, my mastery of magic."

Turning as he heard this voice speaking, Riku turned in the direction it was speaking from. As he did so, he saw the one who had attacked Nozomi was now standing upon a tall spire looking down at his own soaked form. As he looked up to him, he then heard the young man conclude, "And you will soon see the powers of darkness I have gained, by the teaching's of my lady Maleficent."

Hearing this, Riku though didn't know one thing about him and so asked, "You're-?"

"I have been known to you as Uriax, however my beloved Nozomi has always referred to me as Wairu," the apprentice of darkness informed the white haired keyblader.

As these names were mentioned, Riku repeated, "Wairu?" Then it slowly dawned on him as he remembered, "You're Wairu? Nozomi's childhood friend!?"

"So she did mention me to you?" Then smiling more he couldn't help but say looking down to the floor, "How sweet, she loves me so much that she's not even aware of it."

Baffled by these choice of words, Riku couldn't help but repeat puzzled, "Love?" Then looking, he could see that there underneath him still frozen to the floor was, "Nozomi!?"
Hearing that he'd already figured out what he'd performed with his magic, he then informed Riku of it's reason for being, "I decided she should have a display of who truly is the better person for her."

Still puzzled Riku then repeated, "Better person?"
However as he acted so cluelessly in that moment, Wairu then told him with annoyance, "Don't give me that! You're in love with her too aren't you?"

As this was said, Riku momentarily blushed, however this was no time for speaking of secret inward affections and so he bit his lower lip, refusing to answer Wairu on this point. For if he was going to speak of those emotions, it would only be to the person in question.

Seeing he wasn't going to answer him, Wairu then said, "Your expression says everything!" Glad though that he wasn't acting so dumbly anymore, satisfied him slightly. However he decided to continue on to say, "But anyway, I've always wanted to confront the deceitful monster that has been leading my Nozomi astray!"

"Deceitful monster?" Riku didn't understand, so he asked, "Why're are you calling me that?"

With that asked of him, Wairu then further irritated told him, "Don't pretend like you don't know!" With that he lifted his right arm into the air and-!

Riku seeing the sky glow above knew he had to run! Doing so he began to and-!

FLASH!

"AGH!"

Landing hard upon the floor of a neighbouring roof, he rolled over and gasping, he couldn't help but say, "That power! It's too incredible! If that'd hit me in this soaked state I'd-!"

"Look at you falling to your knees!"

It was then hearing Wairu's voice again, Riku turned in his direction. As he did so, he saw the apprentice of darkness was staring at him hatefully as he continued on to say, "A pathetic existence like yours, believing you're here to save her... that's an absolute lie!"

Silent as he heard these bitter words being uttered to him, the soaked keyblader was silent as he heard Wairu then continue, "Riku, your actions mean nothing nor your words, for you can never be a saviour to her! For as your role as a keyblade master you have been appointed by fate to unlock the Door of Light, using the fragments within our Broken Hearts to form the ultimate of all keyblades." Then with that said, Wairu pointed his hand in his enemy's direction again and continued on to say, "Then when your most important of all tasks is complete, you will cease to forget about her existence as well as mine and the rest of the Vessels, leaving you and the rest as untarnished so-called heroes!"

At once seeing he knew the truth about his existence and the rest, Riku stood up and immediately answered him, "That's not the truth!"

Cocking his head to the side, Wairu then had to ask him, "Isn't it?"

Seeing he wasn't taking him seriously, Riku couldn't leave this to silence and continued on to say, "Look! Just listen to me! You've been manipulated by the darkness and Maleficent! I, the king and the others have no intentions of using any of you that way! We've only wanted to protect you all!"

With that told to him, Wairu didn't react visibly. However this didn't stop Riku speaking on, "Nozomi especially! She's our friend! I would never do anything to hurt her and I know you mean so much to her too! As her friend I don't want to harm you, please Wairu believe me!"

Continuing to remain silent as he heard this proclamation, Wairu after a moment finally made a reply, "...I'll have to be thankful that you're so respective in Nozomi's wishes and in acknowledging me." But in another moment, his tone changed as he then declared beginning to burn with dark blue flames, "However I will not show you any mercy!"

Watching on, in shock Riku then saw Wairu's form transform. Looking on, he saw his human form distort and grow larger and sleek as dark black fur grew out all over his body. Then his arms and legs became longer with the fingers and toes becoming sharp like blades. In another moment as the power of darkness coursed all around and through him, the creature's transformation was almost complete as it let out a deafening roar!

"RRRROOOOOOAAAARRRRRRR!"

With this act done shielding his eyes against the flood of dark power that was flowing forth, Riku uttered, "That is-!?"

SLASH!

"Tch!"

Quickly though he didn't have time to speak, for then narrowly evading a sharp blow from the monster, Riku saw it in it's entirety as he landed upon another rooftop. There he saw with it's tall long blue ears with a single tear jewel earring peaking out from it's left ear, with it's rich mane of lilac coloured fur, the creature he had met within the realm's of Atlantis was staring at him with its haunting cold blue eyes.

As he stared at it in shock, he then heard it speak in a haunting deep bestial voice, "You will die here!" With that it launched itself forwards to attack him!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Nozomi still within the confines of the room, was acting with haste to release herself from the ice that was holding her down! Clenching her right hand and fist painfully against the burn of cold that was piercing into her, she fought hard against it. For she was trying desperately to break apart the prison that encased her and the one thing that could free all of her body, Maia the summon gem spirit. Nozomi could see her glow of green light within the transparent cold, to her at that moment it represented her shining hope that she had to seize back no matter what!

Fighting the cold as she shivered she whispered desperately, "C'mon! C'mon! Please! I gotta hurry up or-!"

CRASH!

Looking above herself, through the transparent ceiling Nozomi saw with anxious eyes that the battle between Riku and Wairu's transformed state was not going well! For in his beast form, Wairu's strength, speed and magical power had been increased tenfold and it was clearly too much for just one individual keyblade master to deal with on their own!

However Riku was not giving in easily, for turning quickly in the air with an angered look on his face he released a powerful thunder spell in Wairu's direction! However reacting in moment's the terrible creature turned and swung it's long tail at the spell like a whip, dismissing it in seconds! This shocking Nozomi and clearly Riku too, she saw the creature then aim itself and open it's mouth releasing a hail of sharp dark blue diamonds at the keyblader!

Watching on, Nozomi then saw Riku try hard to dodge and evade each and every sharp projectile that came his way! However as he landed on another tall spire and sliced away into the deadly barrage, the diamonds shattered shards cut into his skin, it was obvious that it hurt him badly as it made some swift cuts on his body leaving him to wince in pain.

Instantly seeing this, Nozomi then saw from her position something that her precious one couldn't see in his moment of pained pause, "RIKU!"

SLASH!

"AAAGGGHHH!"

In seconds the white haired keyblader was struck by Wairu, straight in his chest with its whip like tail! Making him begin to fall to the depths below! Nozomi horrified then saw that the creature despite Riku's weakened state was chasing after him! Seeing this, Nozomi had to hurry! Becoming now panicked as well as urgent, Nozomi was trying even harder to get her right hand free from the ice! Feeling it now shake in the horrible icy cavern, she cried out angrily, "Let me go! C'mon!" With that she kept up her desperate work to free herself!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

"Augh...!"

Coughing out with pain as he caught onto a ledge just barely with his right hand. Riku breathed in and out hard, trying to get his bearings back. As he did so, he tried desperately to think, "What can I do!? He has me literally against the wall! If I don't-!"

"Concocting something are you?"

Shocked, Riku then quickly saw that behind him was the creature that was Wairu directly behind him! He had to move! But before he could-!

SLASH!

"AGH!"

He was struck again, then moving quickly the creature somersaulted and-!

"GRGH!"

CRASH!

Immediately he was slammed into the side of a neighbouring building and he was struck so hard into it, that it created a cratered hole behind his back. Showing the power of force the monster contained, feeling his body ache and shudder from the extreme onslaught of pain. Riku grimaced as he cringed one of his eyes open and went to look in the oncoming monster's direction.

Quickly he saw that it was coming straight in his direction with its claws reaching out to slice him to ribbons! As he saw this, the white haired keyblader then heard the monster say viciously with menacing glee, "Victory is mine!"

However, the keyblader wasn't done yet and moving his blade into position he told the monster, "Not yet!" With that feeling his power quickly build inside, the monster was in his range and seeing this he cried out loudly, "Dark Impulse!"

BLAST!

In seconds thundering towards him, Wairu felt a powerful impact and becoming stunned with surprise he felt himself being forced into the air! As he was he gasped out in his beastly voice, "This is-!?"

Riku pushing himself forwards with his own power of darkness fuelling him, he was pushing his keyblade as desperately as he could forwards and as he pushed and pushed...! He felt it! He'd made the contact he wanted! With this accomplished, he pulled the monster over himself and slamming it down with his legs into its centre, he made it plummet downwards! Then immediately he called upon his next attack reaching his keyblade into the air, "Dark Maelstrom!"

SWOOSH!

Quickly a powerful violet coloured vortex emerged below him and caught the terrible monster in a twister of darkness making it unable to function or move properly! Seeing he'd managed to get it into a weakened position, Riku moved and getting himself into the air. He landed up another rooftop, doing this he had to move fast!

Taking one of the three Elixirs he had on hand, he drank it's golden contents down. Feeling his energy and magical essence regenerate fully, he wiped his mouth. What he performed was a desperate move, he hadn't wanted to spend such a grand amount of power so soon. However he had no choice, it was the only thing that had clearly made any damage against the powerful foe he was against.

But looking down to the rooftop, where he could see Nozomi still clearly struggling. He knew this was not a performance he could do again and again rapidly. It took too much power and magical energy. He didn't have the resources to repeat it too many more times. As he felt his remaining elixirs he uttered, "Two... no maybe three more times I can do this." His chances for winning did not look favourable.

"RRRROOOOOOAAAARRRRRRR!"

Immediately he knew that was Wairu who was quickly coming back for him, gritting his teeth knowing this. Riku then said as he stood up right again, his keyblade being held tightly in his right hand, "I better make good use of those three chances I've got left!" With that he launched himself forwards once again!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Struggling mad, Nozomi felt her trapped hand was bruised within the ice. But she didn't care, she was close now! She could feel it! Just a bit more! She just had to had to keep trying! Soon she'd be freed! Soon she'd-!

"RRRROOOOOOAAAARRRRRRR!"

Again she heard that horrible bellow from Wairu! As she did so, she turned above and saw again the fight that was occurring between him and Riku, it was becoming more vicious by the second as the beast was bearing it's white sharp teeth and Riku desperate with determination fought ever on. Not holding anything back!

Feeling disheartened and still fretful, as she continued on with her strenuous desperate work. Nozomi couldn't help but think, 'Why did this happen!?' For she still didn't understand how things ended up this way? Her childhood friend and the person she treasured fighting to the death like this... this shouldn't have been happening!

However, despite still not understanding she knew it could be fixed somehow! For she knew who was the source of this chaos, it was none other than the mistress of the Heartless, Maleficent! Gritting her teeth as she thought of that evil witch, she then uttered angrily, "When I get out of this! I'm gonna pummel some reason back into Wairu's dumb head! Then I'll make that old hag pay for everything that has-!"

CRACK!

Suddenly looking down, Nozomi saw that she'd made a dent in the ice! She could feel some proper movement again, she was almost freed. A small smile of accomplishment coming to her face, she whispered, "It's working! I'm nearly there! I'm-!"

"RRRROOOOOOAAAARRRRRRR!"

"AAAAGGGGHHHH!"

However, Nozomi's smile quickly vanished! For there she saw above, that Wairu in his bestial form had grabbed Riku by the neck and was holding him aloft! Horrified in seconds, she cried out, "RIKU!" However it was clear he couldn't hear her as she couldn't make out any audible words from them either, other than the most loudest of sounds like she had just heard.

Looking on, she saw that as Riku struggled that down by his right side was a golden bottle of Elixir, however his grip slackened and as it did so, in moments the wondrous healing potion fell from his fingertips. As it did so, she knew things were becoming more horribly dire and knowing they were, Nozomi struggled more against her icy bonds and cried out, "C'mon! C'mon! Hurry up! Break already!" With that she proceeded to rush on to complete her terrible painful task of libration.

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Held in place by the horrible clawed arm of the creature Wairu had become. Riku scowled at him, his fierce determination willing him to rebel until the bitter end.

Wairu looking on at his so called rival could tell he was nearing his end and he knew that he couldn't recover anymore, not with the last bottle of his precious Elixir now shattered surely to pieces down in the depths below them. Thinking this, he couldn't help but taunt the young man before him as he asked in his heavy deep beastly voice, smiling widely as he peered on more closely at him, 'What's wrong? You've got no more clever tricks you can play?'

This put to him, Riku gritted his teeth and moved his right hand fast and-!

CLASH!

He smashed it hard into Wairu's head...however it clearly had no affect on him. For the monster simply stared on at him mockingly with it's menacing grin still there. As it did so, Riku was struggling to maintain his focus and his breathing. Wairu seeing this, then told him his clear blunt thoughts, "Pathetic!" With that he strengthened his grip on Riku's neck!

"Guagh!"

Hearing him cry out in pain, Wairu only smiled more. However inside, seeing Riku become so weak in his eyes, somehow irritated him inside. As it did so, he couldn't help but then berate the keyblader telling him, "Of all people...why did it have to be a weakling like you!?"

Riku obviously couldn't answer back, he was having difficulty just trying to maintain his consciousness!

However, Wairu didn't care for this and was absorbed in his own thoughts as he continued on to say, "I refuse to give her up to someone like you..." Then it dawned on him, on why he truly hated this young man before him, "You! It's always people like you! Interfering with what I love most!" For remembering his past before, with all the bullying, the mockery... and the pain that had been caused to both him and Nozomi. He then continued on to say, "You tormentors who're always hurting us... trying to keep us apart! I had to train myself for so long! To not be that weakling that would always just turn to the person they loved most to protect them! I trained and trained for so long...!"

With those words said to him, Riku could feel what had caused him to fall into the darkness. Remembering the affection he himself had once held for Kairi and what he put Sora through... he understood all too well the grief and pain of the heart when it was in the turmoils of loss, fear and jealousy. As he did so, he tried to speak his own thoughts, "Wai...ru, I-!"

SQUEEZE...

"GAGH!"

However it was clear Wairu didn't want to hear his words, for strengthening his grip again he told the white haired keyblader, "But I won't lose her! No matter what I won't! I will not be left alone and made to suffer like I was, by the world itself...I especially refuse to be abandoned because of the likes of a weakling like you!" It was now clear the end was coming, Wairu was through with being generous in his sport, now it was time for the curtains of life to close upon his adversary...

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!

Feeling the ice chip away, as she banged against the ice harder and harder. Nozomi could feel it beginning to break and as it continued she pushed harder! Angry and desperate she cried out, "C'mon break!"

CRACK!

Hearing this sound, immediately Nozomi cried out, "Break right now!"

SMASH!

With that using all her desperately gathered strength, the ice broke apart and sent shards flying! Her hand pulsing with terrible pain and looking nearly purple, Nozomi breathed in and out deeply and hard to briefly recover herself. She then quickly moved her right hand into the air and cried out, "Maia! Heal me and release me from this ice! Please hurry!" With that she smashed it down onto the floor!

SHINE!

With that in seconds the long haired emerald green spirit of nature blossomed forth, as she looked down and saw the state Nozomi was in. She looked on worriedly, but hurriedly she did her work and unfroze Nozomi's other hand while also quickly removing the terrible ice burns that were afflicting her so badly.

Her work done, the spirit touched Nozomi's right cheek in concern. As she did so, the female keyblader held that hand with her own and smiled sadly with gratefulness, before she told her, "Thank you, Maia." The spirit nodded hearing this thanks and with that, she gracefully vanished away, leaving only her green summon gem behind in Nozomi's now opened right hand.

Holding the gem close to her chest for a moment, Nozomi however knew she had to hurry and so putting the gem hurriedly away she ran to the opened window, then taking off into the air using her wings to propel her. She ran in the direction where Riku and Wairu would be!

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Wairu still gripping onto Riku's neck, could feel him grow weaker and weaker. He was reaching his end and soon, he would have no more threats between himself and-!

"WAIRU STOP IT!"

Hearing this shout, the transformed magician turned his head in Nozomi's direction. As he did so, he asked observing her current state as she landed upon a nearby roof, "So you broke yourself free, did you?"

Not caring for this question though, Nozomi told him again, "Wairu! Let Riku go! Stop hurting him!"

"Hurting him?" He repeated, as he did so. He then clarified to her, "I'm not doing something so nearly as nice as that..." with that turning back to his victim, he continued on to say, "I'm killing him!"

Horrified to hear this, Nozomi cried out, "No you can't!"

SHINE!

In seconds taking a hold of her own keyblade, Nozomi rushed into the air! Doing this she raised her keyblade to strike Wairu! Aiming, she closed in but-!

CLASH!

Suddenly against her keyblade came the force of a protection shield spell! Stopping her from getting any closer to Wairu! Seeing this, she cried out in alarm, "Why!? What is this!?"

Hearing her say this, Wairu turning her way then told her, "The age where I failed in my powers of magic are over, You don't have the capability to stop me now!"

Silent as she heard this, Nozomi though seeing Riku's weakened state knew she couldn't stop now! She had to keep going! With that, she drew back her keyblade again and with it-!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

She struck into the shield over and over again! However it was clear these series of attacks were doing nothing. Wairu seeing her acting like this was silent, however it was clear that even if it was his precious Nozomi doing this, it didn't stop him from being annoyed with her persistence. But before he could move to say anything-!

GLOW!

In seconds, Wairu's animal transformation was coming undone and slowly his human form was returning. However despite this, his hand remained clasped around Riku's neck. The white haired young man's breathing luckily though eased since it was merely the strength of a human holding him and quickly he gasped loudly, his life returning to him!

Seeing this occur, Nozomi cried out, "Riku!?"

Feeling his magical beast form continuing to come undone, Wairu then uttered irritated, "So? I've reached my limit, huh?
Hearing only her voice though, Riku's blurred vision turned in her direction and he questioned breathlessly, "No..zo-?"

However, Wairu hearing him speak made his other hand grab onto Riku's neck!

Horrified seeing this, Nozomi then heard her childhood friend say, "I guess I'll just have to finish you the old fashioned way, huh?"

Alarmed at this, Nozomi again cried out anxiously, "Wairu stop it!" Then she moved her keyblade again! But-!

CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!

Her keyblade still had no effect upon the magical barrier!

Feeling her continue, Wairu paid no heed to her and instead concentrating on Riku, he told her, "And now, happiness will finally be mine!"

Nozomi urgently struck the shield over and over! As she did, becoming more desperate by the second she cried out, "Please stop this Wairu! I don't want this! I don't!"

"I do though," he told her and as he saw Riku become more and more slack from weakness. His strength leaving him, he told her, "For with this done, you and I can be happy and together again!"

However Nozomi countered that telling him, as she continued to try and break the shield, "No we won't! There's no happiness that can come from this! I would never-!"

Wairu however caught in the throws of his delirium told her, "After all I promised, that I'd never let anyone hurt us ever again! I'll destroy everyone who threatens us! I'll-!"

"SHUT UP!"

Shocked as he heard this, Wairu was silent before he heard Nozomi say, "I don't care about that dumb childhood promise now! I can never be happy with someone who destroys others like you! All you've done till now is hurt me!"

As these words were said, Wairu's grip on Riku's neck eased again and as it did, his adversary coughed into life. Wairu though was perplexed by Nozomi's words as he repeated, "You don't care about-?"

"I HATE YOU WAIRU! I JUST WANT YOU TO-!"

However in the midst of Nozomi's screaming of panicked emotion, the point of her keyblade began to glow white! As it did so, she didn't notice and flying into the air she continued on with her hateful upset words,

"TO JUST DISSAPPEAR!"

SHINE!

In seconds Nozomi's keyblade ignited with light and as it did, distracting her with confusion. She gasped asking, "This is-!?" However there was no more time to speak, for then a single beam of light raced out from the tip of her blade and then smashing through the shield it-!

"AAAAGGGGHHHH!"

A single ear piercing scream filled the air as did a huge burst of light, blinding all who were present and soon the aftermath of that one event would change the fates of all who were within the World that Never Was...
