Chapter 3
"Who...Who are you? And how do you know my Mom?" Ruby asks taking a couple steps back and pulls Cresent Rose off her back and holds it up in a defensive way.
The man smirked, "My name is Marluxia... As for the knowledge about your mother...You will have to show me your thorns...Show you are not a delicate flower and can be a good leader." He says summoning his sythe from pink roses as it forms in his hand.
"Wait what? You want me to fight you?" Ruby asks unsure of what is going on.
"Yes of course. Do you have a problem fighting me?" Mar asks.
"Well it's just I don't understand why you want to fight me. I don't know you or where I am or whatever is happening!" Ruby says confused by everything around her.
"I see..You're still young and I understand that. However if you want to be the leader of your team. You are going to need to act on instinct, despite everything going on around you."
"What if... What if I'm not meant to lead my team..." Ruby says starting to doubt herself.
"HMMMM. So you doubt yourself already? You have been with your team for quite some time. But it's now you doubt in an unfamiliar world and different face...It's honestly sad...If I knew what sadness felt like." Marly says reflecting on himself.
However his eyes darkens and holds his sythe out.
"Even still Ruby. If you're a Huntress, you will still need to fight and defend yourself!" He says charging at her and swinging his weapon with Ruby lifting hers up and deflecting the attack.
Mar dashes over swinging his weapon multiple times with Ruby blocking the attacks then struggling to hold back against a struggle.
"I'm attacking yet you still hesitate to fight me...Adorable really..Guess you need some motivation." The reaper says teleporting away as Ruby looks around trying to find where he went.
Suddenly he appears behind her and whispers into her ear "Summer Rose is still alive." Before teleporting away as she spins around attempting to attack him but finds a nobody logo swirl around her as the number 55 seems to be imprinted on her hand.
"W-What? What is this?" Ruby asks confused on what happen.
"That is your countdown. With each hit my sythe lands on you. it goes down by one. And if it reaches zero...You will die. So fight me! Show me your thorns!" Mar demands as he spins his sythe creating a vacuum and pulling her towards himself.
Ruby struggles to stay away but just as he swings at her she turns into Rose peddles and moves away dodging the attacks.
Then she reappears back to normal and fires a sniper round at the man but he quickly turns around and slices the bullet with the sythe.
Suddenly he teleports beside her and swings his weapon upward knocking her into the air, then teleports swings again, and hitting her once last time knocking her to the floor.
He then lands on the ground and laughs manically and throws his sythe and it spins by it's self towards Ruby as it impacts her slicing into her and knocking her back.
She lands on the ground shocked at what happen, she was cut a bunch of times, however cuts where nowhere to be found on her body, no physical damage was done, however internally she felt a bit of a stinging pain.
She looks at her hand again and sees it went down to 43, causing her heart to skip a beat...
Ruby realized if she wants to get out of this. She is going to need to up her fighting and become more aggressive.
"I can't let him win. If I fall here, I won't be able to protect Weiss, Blake, Yang...or live up to what Mom stood for!" Ruby thinks to herself as she rushes towards him, swinging her sythe and firing a round making her into a spinning attack as she slices at him.
Mar is knock back, holding his chest, agitated but somewhat impressed.
They slice at each other many times, Ruby getting hit a few times when her guard was not the best.
"RRRAAAHH!" Mar yells throwing his sythe as it spins in a buzzsaw saw heading for Ruby.
Ruby jumps out of the way from it and charges towards him.
"HMP! Sythe to me!" Marulixa yells as the weapon suddenly levitates and spins towards him slicing Ruby multiple times from behind till it reaches his hand.
Her hand now read 10. She knew she had to act fast.
Ruby gets back up and swings her weapon multiple times getting some deadly hits on the mysterious man!
After some hits she kicks Mar as he hits a wall, as he slowly picks himself back up, cracking his neck ready for more.
Just then he teleports and slashes at Rube, then another time and another. Hitting her till she is only at 2 hits left.
However after another appearance, she turns into Rose peddles avoiding his attack.
Then Ruby finally gets Cresent Rose around Mar and fires a round slicing through him, defeating him at last.
However she soon feels a presents behind her.. Ruby breath hitches as she sees the pink peddles in the air, and looking downward sees Mar's blade over her chest as he pulls it hard taking another one of her numbers leaving her with 1.
Ruby gasps realizing she is near her end, she falls to her hands and knees, the weapon falling in front of her.
She almost goes to reach for it, however Marluxia holds his blade over her neck.
"Don't move...One more cut will end you forever...So just listen to what I have to say."
Rose freezes in place and gasps trying to be still but listening to him.
"You have fought well and have shown some strength. However. You are hesitant... And due to your young age. More inexperienced and less strong then you could be. So.. I'm letting you go. So you can find your sister and maybe become stronger." He says moving the sythe away from her neck as she exhales in relief.
"Oh and by the way. Weiss and Blake are here...They are just in captivity by the Organization."
"What!? Where are they!?" Ruby asks.
He chuckles saying "When you meet the Keyblade Wielder...He will know." Marluxia says teleporting away...
Ruby looks distraught and roughed up. But she sets her mind on finding Yang.
She grabs her weapon and runs across the city to find her sister.
After wandering through the labyrinthine streets of the strange city, Ruby's heart leapt when she finally spotted a familiar figure in the distance.
"YANG!" Ruby yelled, her voice cracking as she ran forward.
Yang turned, her golden hair a messy halo under the dim light, and opened her arms just in time to catch her little sister. They hugged tightly, Ruby burying her face in Yang's shoulder.
"Ruby... thank goodness. Are you okay?" Yang's voice was rough, strained with worry.
"I'm fine... I think," Ruby stammered, stepping back slightly to look at Yang.
Yang let out a small, relieved laugh. "That's all that matters right now."
Ruby hesitated, her voice faltering. "But... Yang, some man forced me to fight him, and he—"
Before she could finish, the air grew thick with a sinister presence. Both sisters turned as strange, silver tentacles writhed into view, twisting and coiling as they took on monstrous forms. Sleek, faceless knights shimmered into existence beside gamblers their cards and dice flashing dangerously. Winged creatures hovered above, spears glinting in their hands, as they descended toward the sisters.
Ruby gripped Crescent Rose tightly. "What are they?" she asked, her voice tinged with both awe and fear.
Yang took a protective step forward, her Ember Celica glinting as she loaded fresh shotgun shells. "I don't know, but they're not here for a friendly chat. Stay back—I'll hold them off."
"No!" Ruby protested, her silver eyes determined. "You're hurt. Let me help! We'll fight them together."
Yang clenched her jaw, torn between her instinct to shield Ruby and her trust in her sister's strength. Finally, she nodded. "Alright... but stick close. We're stronger together."
The sisters stood back-to-back as the monsters surged toward them. Ruby darted forward with a flurry of rose petals, Crescent Rose slashing through the air. Yang unleashed explosive punches, her Ember Celica roaring with each blast. The two fought as one, their teamwork seamless despite the chaos.
Meanwhile, not far from the battle, in a shadowy alleyway, four figures moved with purpose. A massive keyblade swung through the air, cleaving a Heartless in two as it dissolved into darkness.
"Got it!" a spiky-haired teen exclaimed, grinning as he rested the oversized weapon on his shoulder.
Beside him, a silver-haired teen nodded, his expression stoic but focused. "Let's keep moving, Sora."
A voice piped up, light and goofy, as a dog-like figure glanced around. "Uh, does anybody hear that? Sounds like trouble!"
"Fighting?" squawked another voice, this one belonging to a short, feathered duck. "Who else is fighting here of all places?"
The boys grin faded, replaced by a look of resolve. "Whoever it is, they might need help. Let's check it out!"
"Right behind you, pal!" said the dog, his shield at the ready.
The group hurried toward the sounds of battle. As they rounded the corner, they spotted the two sisters locked in a desperate fight against the strange, writhing creatures.
The boy with the keyblade took the lead, determination flashing in his bright blue eyes. "Come on, guys! Let's go!"
Just then the group arrived to Ruby and Yang's fight, reviling to be Sora, Donald, Goofy, and Riku! Their arrival marking the collision of two worlds—and the start of a brand-new alliance.
