Hey guys and dolls I have returned with a new chapter of RWBY Hearts: The Journey.
So last time, Sora and his company went and traveled underground to find the lost city of Atlantis, and along the way, Ruby and Jaune had a heart-to-heart talk. Now, what will they discover as they finally make it to the lost city? tune in and find out.
Sorry for the long wait everybody, there was a lot of shit going on in my personal life. One thing is that I lost my job…so yea….and I just wanted some time to myself. I recently got Lego Star Wars: The Skywalker Saga, so I have been enjoying my time with that.
DID YOU ALL SEE THE NEW TRAILER FOR KINGDOM HEARTS 4? The series is finally beginning to look realistic, and I am so excited about it! Sora looks so grown up now, and the Keyblade is being used as a grappling hook? YES!
I still hope that some Disney worlds will be in, maybe not alot but some. Like I would KILL to see worlds based on Star Wars and Marvel, I want to see Sora team up with Luke Skywalker and Spider-Man!
I hope that the development won't be as long as it was for 3, but you know, you gotta make sure that the game will be good for us players. Can't wait!
Also, did you all see that trailer for the new RWBY: Ice Queendom? I will admit, it looks pretty interesting, I am picky about certain shows, but maybe I'll give it a chance. Still no word about Volume 9 though…I hope we get some info soon
Let's get right into it!
To RonaldM40196867: I believe they would indeed make a cute couple, adventures are always crazy,
To KnightSpark: Trust me, things will get a bit tougher in the future.
To the mysterious Mr.E: Coolio, same.
To Gamelover41592: Thanks :)
To Fallbridge: As I mentioned, it will get a bit harder down the road for our bond noodle knight.
To Jacob9594: I know, it's really deep and Ruby and Jaune will have more talks like this in the future.
To Robbeeyy: The thing is, Jaune feels bad since he is the leader of JNPr, and since Pyrrha died, he feels like it's his fault that she's dead. Yes, he needs to understand that he has others, but Pyrhha was something else for him.
To Guest-Questioner: Oh, cool beans.
Kingdom Hearts belongs to Tetsuya Nomura, Shinji Hashimoto, Disney, and Square Enix.

Atlantis
As Kida and the men accompanying her were making their way through the city, everyone present looked on with major awe and wonder, Sora and his company the most awestruck.
"Just imagine it," Sora began. "A city underground!" He exclaimed with excitement.
"It's so cool!" Ruby and Max said with grins of their own. Jaune was in awe and amazement, he sure bet that Professor Oobleck would be very interested in coming here and looking at this place.
As they all kept walking, they overheard Kida say something about bringing them all to her father, which only made the group a bit more excited. But Milo? Milo was the most excited of them all as he began to talk their heads off, and he talked so much that the others were just herring him frag on words. To Ruby and Jaune, it was Professor Oobleck all over again…
"So guys," Sora said to them. "If this is Atlantis, why exactly is it underground?" That was a very good question that the others thought about, why was this city underground? Like was there an accident or something?
"Beats me," Sun said. "Maybe we'll find out once we get to see who runs this place." He said with the others agreeing.
20 minutes later….
Sora's company, Milo, Rourke, and Helga were all led by Kida to a room that looked like a large garden area, most of the middle was water, but at the very end stood an old man wearing royal attire, he had on similar facial marking as the rest of the Atlanteans and carried large staff, and his eyes were white, meaning that he was blind. This was the King of Atlantis.
"Oh wow…!" Ruby said with awe, as the others agreed. Then Kida went towards the king and bowed as she then began to speak in her native Atlantean language.
"Greeting your Highness," Kida said to him as she bowed. "I have brought visitors here." She said to him. Knowing that this must be the ruler, Milo, Jaune, Ruby, and a few others then bowed in respect, but Rourke and Helga did no such thing.
The king then glared a bit at Kida, he might not be able to see her, but he can hear her words. "Kida, you know that no outsiders are to see the city and live to tell the tale." He said.
To Sora's group, they did not know what they were saying, but for the tone and facial expressions it could come off as they were arguing, but what about? Sora took a glance at Milo, and the young linguist had an idea and it made him frown a bit.
"Uh, excuse me, your majesty?" Rourke said as he took a few steps up, ignoring Milo's suggestions that he come back. "On behalf of me and my crew, it is an honor to be welcomed in this nice city of yours."
But the king scoffed. "You presume too much if you think that you are welcomed here. I know what you wish to seek, and you will not find it here. The journey you and your crew have embarked on has been in vain."
This made some of the group a bit surprised, but at the same time it almost sounded like the king was hiding something, they couldn't put their fingers on it, but they just had a hunch, what was it?
"Sir!" Ruby said as she stepped up right next to Rourke. "My friends and I are nothing but peaceful explorers, in search of adventure and excitement, men of science." She said, hoping to get the king to trust them.
"And yet, you bring weapons with you." The king said. This made Ruby's eyes widen and she reached back and held onto Crescent Rose a bit. How did he know that they had weapons, he was blind, wasn't he? The others were a bit shocked as well, but they kept their calm.
"Well yes, that's true sir," Rourke said, getting right in front of Ruby, seemingly to protect her. "But the weapons we all carry are to help us with some obstacles that we encounter along the way."
"Yea, like Grimm/Heartless." The group thought to themselves, Heartless for Sora, Donald, Goofy, Oswald, Ortensia, Stitch, and Max. Grimm for the Remnant teens.
After the king denied that request, Milo attempted to get Rourk to accept his faults and for them all to leave, but Rouke got an idea. "Sir, if it's alright with you, may we stay for one night? I mean so that it gives us all time to resupply and be ready to leave the next day." He asked.
Milo was worried that this was going to go into a full argument, but much to his surprise, the king sighed softly. "Very well, you may all stay, but for one night only, that is all." He said.
This made Rourke bow his head and thank the king before turning around and walking out the door, the others following close behind, but Milo and Sora both looked back to see Kida frowning as they left. When the group finally left, Kida then turned to her father, but the older man held his hand up.
"Daughter…that girl's voice…what was the color of her eyes?" He asked.
While Kid was upset at her father for turning the guests away, she was however a bit confused about such a question. "I believe her eyes were gray like silver." She said to him, "Why?"
But he ignored her question as the king closed his eyes and thought it over. "A silver-eyed girl!" the king thought in deep thought as his grip on the cane tightened a bit.
As the group all made it out the doors, they were asked how things went, and the response was Milo telling them all that Kida and the king didn't exactly see eye-to-eye.
"I mean she seems to like us, but her father, not so much…" Milo said. "But something tells me that he might be hiding something."
"Well if he's hiding something, then I want to know what it is," Rourke said to them with a smirk. When Sora and his company took a glance at Rourke, something made them wary of the kind of smirk and vibe they were getting off of him, what was it?
"Someone should talk to that daughter of his thoughts." Helga said, as Mole then perked up with a big grin and volunteered to do it.
"Milo, maybe you should talk to her," Ruby suggested, making Milo and some of the company look at her with confusion. "Well, I mean you do speak the language, and she did seem to be a bit amazed by you, from what you're both making eye contact with when we were being escorted out." She ended with a small smirk, making Milo gasp a bit and his face blushed a bit.
"Well, uh.." He said, trying to diffuse the situation, and ignoring the fact that Mole was crying in the background.
"Well then, that takes care of that then." Rourke said. "Mr. Thatch, get close to the girl, the rest of us will look around, and learn more about this lovely city. Helga, I need to speak with you in private." He said to Helga, who nodded. "Crew, go and explore." He said as they all left. Leaving only Milo, Sora, and the company.
"So…what should we do?" Max asked with a raised eyebrow. "I mean since we are here and all." He said.
"Maybe we can all split up," Sora suggested, making the others look at him. "Like Milo and I can wait for that one girl to come out, while the rest of us all look around, and we can all meet up later." Everyone thought of this plan, but it was the only thing Sora wanted to do, he noticed that there hasn't been any Heartless for a while, and it was making him a bit nervous and a bit suspicious, he was going to investigate.
"Actually," Ruby said. " I think I'll stay with Milo as well."
"Same here," Oswald said. "I am interested in learning about this place as well."
Everyone smiled and nodded their heads, Milo was smiling, happy to know that he wouldn't be alone if this woman was to come out.
"Alright then, see you all later then!" Goofy said as he and the others then waved and walked away, but before they got too far, Sora had a team huddle.
"Guys, there hasn't been any Heartless in a while and it doesn't seem right here. So while you explore, keep your guards up." He said to them, they all nodded their heads and took off to parts unknown.
10 minutes later…
Milo, Sora, Ruby, and Oswald noticed that Kids had left the throne room.
"Ok, she's leaving," Milo said as he took a deep breath. "Ok, so I have some questions for you." He said, trying to figure out a way to get her to talk to her. "And I'm not leaving until you give them to me."
But Oswald and Ruby looked at him and each other and rolled their eyes, he was not going to get any answers acting like that! "Uh, Milo," Oswald said to him, getting the linguists' attention. "If you want answers, you might want to ask her more nicely, don't just force her to give out answers, we aren't police officers."
"I agree," Ruby said with her arms crossed. "You don't want her to see you as a creep right?"
Milo looked at them both and sighed a bit. "Yea, I know, but what else can I do? I mean Rourkee wants answers, and I kinda want to know more about this place as well. Like how did the whole city end up underground, I'm sure you guys want to know as well."
"Yea yea," Ruby said. "But we shouldn't force it out of her, if she doesn't want to tell us, we should respect her wishes and stuff."
"Well, you are very considerate." Said a familiar voice, making everyone jump back in surprise to see that Kida was standing right by a pillar with her hands on her hips. "And I have some questions for you all as well. And none of you are leaving this sixty until they are answered." She said with a smirk, clearly mirroring what Milo said a little while ago.
Milo then gulped a bit nervously. "Oh, so you heard that huh?" He asked. "Well, uh-" But Kida shushed him.
"Come with me, and you three as well." She said to Sora, Ruby, and Oswald, who looked a bit confused but a little bit nervous as well, why did she want them? Of course, they did want to go with her since they wanted to know more about the land, but what made them so interesting to her?
But it didn't matter as the group of four then walked through the area, they screwed and then came across a part of the land that seems to be a bit barren.
"There is so much I wish to ask of your world," Kida said as the others caught up with her a bit. "Like you are a scholar yea?" She asked Milo. "Although judging from your diminished physic and your large forehead, you must be as you are suited for nothing else.
"Ok, that didn't-" But Sora was interrupted by Kida looking at him as well.
"And what about you? I don't exactly know what you do despite your weird-looking hair."
"Hey! My hair looks pretty good, thank you very much!" Sora exclamation feeling a bit insulted.
Milo however was fortunate enough to save him. "Now now," He said, getting between the two of them to prevent a fight. "I got a few questions for you as well like here we go, I'll ask one and you ask one for any of us." Kida thought it over for a little bit, and then she gave a small smile and nodded her head. "Ok, so here is my question, like how did you and all of Atlantis get down here?"
"Yea!" Ruby said. "From what Milo told us, apparently the whole place was sent underground, how did that happen?"
Kida sighed as they all continued to walk. "I do not know myself, they say that the gods became jealous of Atlantis, so they sent a great cataclysm and banished us all underground." When she said this, the others were shocked, why would gods be jealous of this place so much that it made them go underground?
"All I remember was the sky going dark and people shouting and running in panic." She then stopped and placed her hand on a rock and looked up. "Then in the dark, there was a light there, a blue light as the stars. My father told me that it called my mother to it…and then I never saw her again."
Ruby looked at her and frowned a bit, she knew what it was like to lose a parent, she lost her mother when she was young. "I'm so sorry…" She said with a frown on her face.
"Thank you…really," Kida said to the younger girl with a sad smile on her face.
"We agree," Sora said as well as Milo and Oswald, who nodded their heads. But Milo then looked a bit surprised.
"Wait a minute," Milo said, interrupting their conversation. "Sorry, but did you say that you remember? Because then that would make you at least around 8,500 to 8,800 years old." Sora, Ruby, and Oswald were a little bit shocked when he said that. That was impossible, no one could exist for that long period, could they?
But then Kida nodded her head and agreed with him, making all of them look shocked and awed. "I hope I look good like that when I reach that age." Ruby whispered to Sora, who nodded his head in agreement.
Oh, wow, um." Milo was a bit shocked because Kida was confirmed to be at that oldest age, he was a little lost for words, but then. "Well hey, looking good." He said in an attempt to be cool and suave, but this had Oswald and Ruby facepalm a bit. "Ok, so now you have a question for me, yes?"
"Yes, how is it that you and your companions managed to find this place?"
"Oh! Well," Milo then reached into his bag and got out the journal. "We had a little help from this, I mean the journey was slightly easy."
"Sure, if you mean almost getting killed by a large robotic lobster nearly driving into a cave guarded by a large worm, and nearly getting killed by fireflies." Oswald said with a deadpan remark.
The Kida took the book and looked at them all with shock. "The Leviathan? How do you all get past the Leviathan?" She asked with shock.
The group all looked at eachother, not knowing how to explain. "Very long story…" They said in unison, and they left it at that.
Kida would usually ponder them for more, but she just nodded and looked into the journals she read over the pages, her face turned into a somber one. "You can understand all of this?"
Milo was going to ask her another question but he then answered her question about him being a linguist and as he tried to ask her more she interrupted him again by shoving the book in his face. "Right here!" She exclaimed. "You can read that?"
"Yes, yes I can!" He said this prompted Kida to take the book and look over it once again.
"Wait, can you not speak it?" Oswald asked her, prompting her to shake her head no.
"But why?" Ruby asked. "I mean it is your language after all."
Kida sighed and looked at the silver-eyed girl. "None of us can, such knowledge of our language has been lost since the time of the Mehbelmock." This prompted Sora and his members to look at the girls with sympathy again, first their city is sent underground and now they cant speak their language? What happened to these people to deserve such punishment?
"Oh, the great flood," Milo said with sympathy.
"A flood too?" Sora and his friends thought in unison. "Where the heck did we end up?"
(Eyecatch featuring Milo looking out into Atlantis for a cliffside.)

Docks
Sun was looking at everything and was amazed by it all, it sorta reminded him back in Vacuo, as he had seen some people doing this sorta stuff.
"Man, I wish Neptune and the guys could see this place." He said with a smile. Then his smile turned into a small frown, his team….Team SSSN. They were all possibly wondering where he was, and he was here in a different world trying to find Blake, a girl who he…likes. "I'm a piss poor leader.." He said as he slumped down a bit, feeling ashamed of himself.
"Excuse me?" Sun then looked over to see a small Atlantean girl, who looked no more than five or six looking at him. "You look sad, is something wrong?"
Sun was a bit surprised at seeing her, he didn't expect someone to come and talk to him, and he didn't wish to speak to someone either, but he didn't want to be rude to her since she was a small kid. "Yea, I'm alright, I was just thinking about something." He said to her,
The girl then looked at Sun's tail and was awed. "Is that real?" She asked him.
Sun looked at his tail and gave a small smile. "Yeppers, just watch." He said as he then used his tail to reach over and gently flicked her nose a few times, which made the girl ticklish and giggle a bit.
"I saw someone who has a tail, especially if that someone is from up top. How did you all manage to get down here?"
As Sun looked into the girl's eyes, he could feel all of his shame going away. Sure he still felt bad for not being a good leader, but the girl was making him feel a bit better. "Well, it wasn't easy, for you see."
Meanwhile, Jaune was then in the market area with Audrey and Vinny as they all looked around the area with awe in their eyes.
"It's so lively here," Jaune said as he looked around and smiled a bit. Good thing no Heartless or Grimm were here. But he was still worried about his fitness. He had been wandering around and asked a few locals, but he didn't get any good answers and it made him stressed a bit.
"Look at this," Jaune turned to see Audrey and Cookie talking, with the older man having his shirt red as he showed her a bunch of marks on his stomach. "I can make Rhode Island dance." He said as he then moved his belly, making it swish around, and Audrey? Well, she didn't look amused…more like a bit disgusted.
Jaune walked over and saw what Cookie was doing and raised an eyebrow. "Uh…"
"Don't ask, blondie." Audrey said to him. "Just don't ask."
Jaune was still confused, and he was a bit annoyed at being called blondie, but what was he to do about it right? He then looked around and noticed Ortensia looking into some of the Atlantean clothing. "Ortensia!"
The cat noticed Jaune and smiled at him. "Hey honey, how are you?" she asked him.
Jaune looked confused a bit. "Did she just call me honey?" He thought, but then shook his head, not paying it any mind. "Nothing, so what are you doing?" He asked.
"Oh, well I was looking at some of the clothing these people wear, they are truly amazing. But some of it can be a bit too…revealing."
"Well, who are we to judge, right?"
"Yea, I know, I'm not discouraging it, I just don't feel like wearing anything that reveals too much skin is all."
Jaune then looked at her confused. "But when we were in Timeless River you wore nothing but a skirt and a hat with a flower on it."
Ortensia stared at Jaune for a few seconds and shrugged her shoulders. "Good point."
Later on, Milo and his group were all eating at someone's place, the food was….questionable to say, what with some looking line bugs and fish and…other stuff.
"So that little blue thing you call Stitch?" Kida asked if she and a few others were looking over to see Stitch and Mole engorging themselves with the food, with Vinny and Sweet also eating.
"Yeppers," Ruby said as she then noticed Stitch eating the bowl…and then the weird-looking silverware, and she simply had to wonder. Just what was his digestive system like to be able to eat all that stuff.
Forest Area
"Oh jeez, where the heck am I?" Max asked himself, after exploring for a bit, he got separated from the rest of the group and now he found himself lost, which also made him panic a bit. "Dad?" He called out. "Sora, anybody?" He called out once again, but no answer.
Max then took a deep breath and tried to calm down. "OK Max, just relax," He said. "You trained at the castle for a year, you can take on anything."
As he was making his way through the forest. He heard some noises and he got nervous, his hand reached for his sword and got into a position while looking around. What was it, Heartless? Other creatures? But then as if luck would have it, it was Heartless.
The Heartless facing him had long slender bodies, with blue tribal markings on their heads and bodies, they looked to have some sort of weird red wraps around them as well, and had horns and glowing red eyes, and large claws. These were called the Loa Heartless.
Max glared at them for a moment and got ready to battle. "Alright Heartless, show me what you got!" He exclaimed, one of the Loa then jumped and tried to slash him, but Max held his shield out and blocked it, and he swiftly decapitated the Heartless right there.
He then noticed one of the Loa making hand movements and pointing their hands out, and when they did, they fired off several beams, Max quickly dodged out of the way in time and he then saw the beams hitting a tree, causing it to turn into ashes upon impact.
"Oh jeez!" Max exclaimed in shock as he then noticed that another Loa was about to fire off another shot he quickly dodged rolled out of the way, but he didn't see where he was going, and when he got up, he was met by a Loa who slashed him in the chest, causing Max to go back a bit.
"Ow!" He exclaimed as he then clenched his chest and looked down, seeing a little bit of blood coming out of the wound, he then looked up and glared as he then used hsi shield to dodge another claw attack, and when the clawed hand was right near, he used his sword to cut it right off. The Heartless screeched in pain, but then Max shot it by stabbing it through the head.
The next Loa then fired off more beams at Max, but he kept dodging, but he knew that he wouldn't keep that up anymore. When a beam came at him, he was out of the way, but the beam hit the shield, causing it to deflect and go hitting another tree.
Max then looked at his shield and realized something. "Of course! Some light and lasers are deflected by a prism, and my shield has that inside." He thought. He then looked up and smirked once again at the Heartless, who then raised its palms and attempted to do another beam attack, but Max quickly got his shield up and the beam deflected and hit the Heartless right in the head causing it to turn into ashes.
Finally, there was one more Heartless left, and Max was now glaring as he had his sword ready. The Heartless attempted two claw attacks, but Max dodged one and he blocked another with his shield. When he found an opening, he used his sword to slice off the Heartless arms, and finally stab it right through the head. Heartless was defeated and Max was the winner.
"Oh, yea!" Max said as he then started doing a victory dance. "Go Max! Go Max! Go Max! Who won? Max won! Yes!" He was both excited and happy, his father was going to love hearing about this, oh yes he was.
BAM
Max then felt something hit his head, it hurt, but also made him dizzy. "Ow…that hurt…" He said dazzlingly before he fell and blacked out.
Large Pond
Sora's company was now looking into a large pond area, the fireflies from the cave were fluttering around, and much to everyone's relief, they did not attack them, they just…fluttered a bit.
"You know something, Kida?" Milo said. "When we first got down here, we were kinda expecting to see crumbling buildings and maybe some broken pottery, but instead we found a thriving city!"
"It's so amazing!" Ruby said as she then giggled at seeing the fireflies land on her finger. "Haha, these little guys are pretty cute."
"Yea, when they aren't trying to turn us into barbecue," Oswald said with some deadpan, making Sora, Ruby, and Milo gulp nervously and nod in agreement.
Kida however had a frown as some of the fireflies went into a lantern she had out. "Not true," She said to them. "True we are alive, but we aren't thriving at all, our culture is dying." She said as he closed the lid and lifted the lantern. "We're like a stone beating against the ocean, every passing year, more of us go."
Sora and the others looked at her with sympathy, they wished there was something they could do to help these poor people. Milo said just that and Kida took his hand.
"I brought you here because I need your help," Kida said to the group. "There's a mural here with writing on the wall around the pictures."
"Oh, well why didn't you say so?" Milo said as he took the lantern and lit some writing behind him. "You see here."
"Uh…Milo?" Sora said to him, getting the young linguist to turn and see Kids taking her long skirt to reveal blue swimwear underneath, making Sora and Milo blush out of embarrassment.
"You do swim, right?" She asked them. But Sora and Milo were still a bit gawked by the sight and they were trying hard not to say something that might offend or scare her.
THWACK
Ruby and Oswald both slapped them upside their heads and got them back to their senses. "Oh yea, I swim pretty girl, I mean good, yea, good swim, swim well." Milo's trying way too hard….
Sora and Ruby both haven't heard from Jaune and the others for a while now it was a little bit concerning for them both, Oswald was too tired for his wife. "Hey," Sora said to Kida and Milo. "We're going to go find the others and see what's up." He said.
"Oh?" Kida asked. "You can't swim?"
"What? No, we can swim! Just fine!" Ruby said to her. "We just haven't heard from them so we are a bit worried." Well mainly that, but another reason is that Ruby didn't feel like undressing in front of them, especially not in front of three boys.
Milo then shrugged his shoulders. "Ok then, we'll catch up with you all in a little while." He said as he and Kids then sunk into the water, leaving Sora and his company alone.
Sora sighed and turned to them. "Ok, Ruby, can you get on your scroll thing and try to contact Jaune or Sun?" He asked.
Ruby was already on it as she had her scroll in her hand and looked at her contacts that showed Jaune and Sun's pics. "C'mon…c'mon!" Ruby said, her scroll still ringing. After a good few minutes, she didn't get a call she got a bit frustrated. "I don't get it, why aren't they answering?" She asked.
Sora and Oswald both sighed heavily a bit, what was going on? "Ok, just don't panic," Oswald said to the two teens. "Let's all head into the marketplace and-"
"Honey?" They all turned to see Ortensia, walking up to them. "You're here…" She said,
Ruby sighed in relief. "Ortensia!" Ruby said with a big smile on her face. "We were getting worried about you guys!" As Ruby said that, Sora and Oswald noticed that Ortensia looked a bit…tense and nervous to say the least.
"Tensia, are you ok, honey?" Oswald asked her with concern, now Ruby started to look concerned after seeing the catwoman look at them with worry and tension.
"Guys, I'm so sorry…" She said to them as tears went down her face.
"What do you mean-"
COCKING
"Hands up, now!" Sora and the other three then noticed that a bunch of the men that were part of the expedition now surrounded them all, guns pointed right at them. Sora and the others were now startled, what was going on here? Either way, they couldn't do anything about it unless they got themselves or Ortensia hurt so they did what was told and had all of their hands in the air.
"I swear to god," Oswald said as he glared at a soldier who had his gun aimed at Ortensia's head. "If you lay one finger on her-"
BAM
Oswald was immediately kicked in the gut by a bigger soldier.
"Oswald!" Sora and Ruby exclaimed in shock. Ortensia wanted to rush right over there to be with him, but she still had a gun to her head.
"Hey, hey now!" they all turned to see Rourke, Helga, and the rest coming up to the group. "What's going on here?" He asked while narrowing his eyes.
"Commander!" Ruby said to him. "These soldiers attacked us out of nowhere, you need to help us!"
Rourke looked at Ruby, then at the others, and sighed. "Men, what did I tell you about attacking?" He asked.
When he said that, Sora and Ruby's eyes went wide. "Wait, what do you-"
"SORA!" They then noticed that Donald, Goofy, and the others of the company were standing with guards aiming guns at them and an army of Heartless as well on the standby. Audrey had her pipe, Vinny had a bomb in hsi hands, Sweet had a scalpel, and Cookie, Packard, and Mole had guns on them.
"W-what are you doing?" Ruby asked with worry in her voice.
Rourke then approached her and gave off a faux-friendly smile. "Sorry for this Ms. Rose, but you see, a certain gentleman warned me that you and your friends would get in the way of our paycheck and so…well…"
"Ruby, where's Milo?" Sun called out in worry.
Rourke then looked at Ruby with a smoke. "Yes, where is Mr. Thatch?" He asked her.
"Like we would tell you!" Sora exclaimed. "I knew there was something I didn't like about you." Sora said with a glare. "You reek of darkness!"
Rourke then frowned at Sora. "Now is that any way to speak to adults, young man?" He taunted him. "Now I'm going to ask again…"
SLAP
Ruby was sent flying backward a bit from being lapped across the face by Rourke and landed on her back with a thud. Thanks to her Aura it didn't hurt, but the impact was heavy.
"RUBY!" the company screamed in fright. Jaune had to be held down by some soldiers, seeing her slapped made him very mad.
"You bastard!" Jaune exclaimed with anger in his voice, struggling hard to get out of the soldier's grip.
Rourke then glared at Ruby, who was now looking up with some far but mostly defiance. "Ms. Rose, I'll ask one last time. Where…is…Thatch?"
SPLASH
Everyone then turned to see Milo getting right out and swimming to some large stone, making Rourke smirk. "Finally." He said as he walked over to where Milo was swimming up to. When Milo got to where he was, he coughed a bit and wiped the water out of his eyes and he looked up to see Rourke smirking at him. "Have a nice swim?"
So Sora and his friends went into the lost city and learned some stuff, but in the end, it turns out that Rourke has turned on them all, but for what? We shall have to wait and see for next time.
Sorry if this chapter is not the best, I have been out of the game for two months due to stress and all that crap. Also, I played video games to help cope with stress so that's also a thing.
What did you all think of the Loa Heartless? I wanted to try to create an original Heartless that fit the world theme. So what's your opinion?
Next chapter, I'll reveal which three new worlds I got planned for the story, not including Atlantis.
Anyways please don't forget to read and review, I'm always happy to hear from you guys and happy to answer any questions you might have for me.
See you all next time :)
