As harrowing as it was, she didn't* ***Want*** *To be locked in life or death combat with her other half. She sat up from where she was laying and looked around. It looked like she had somehow crashed through the roof of this abandoned shopping stall. There was a her-shaped hole in the roof where rain was currently pouring in from. It was now that she noticed she was wearing a strange necklace. She put her hand over it and felt a strange power coursing through it. She did not like that. Akyra ripped the necklace off and crushed it, releasing its stored magic. Her body ached as she pushed herself up to her feet, darkness leaking from a few cuts and scrapes on her body. She stepped out into the rain and begin to channel her magic. She placed her hand on some of her injuries and used ice magic to freeze over them. She winced from the pain, as her eyes lit up yellow with the formation of the ice. She looked around the abandoned marketplace and spotted her wooden staff across the way. She knelt down to pick it up, before she stood once more.*\n\n```Downpour - 7/19/23 - 2```\n*With her wooden staff back in hand, she could actually cast cure on herself instead of just freezing her wounds over. She sighed with relief after healing her wounds. She huddled down under a more in-tact shopping stall to get out of the rain. She wasn't even sure where she was, or how she got here. She felt an ungoldy amount of darkness eminating from the castle at the center of this seemingly broken and abandoned city, but it felt like the kind of darkness not even she wanted to be a part of. She closed her eyes and attempted to sense what exactly was at the heart of this castle, but to no avail. All she could sense was a looming darkness. As the light rain turned to a downpour, Akyra used her staff to cast a simple blizzard to encase the stall with ice, so that no rain would come in as the weather turned for the worse.*\n\n```Thunder - 7/19/23 - 3```\n*She woke up again after some time to the crashing of thunder. Her ice wall still encased the shopping stall, so she put her staff up to it and channeled magic to shoot a Dark Blizzard through the wall, to form a hole in it. She looked out through the hole, surprised that the bad weather had actually passed. But that thunder sounded so close? She shook her head and clambered out of the hole. She hated getting wet, so if the rain was gone, now was the perfect time to investigate where the hell she was. She stepped down from the hole in her ice wall and brushed herself off. She looked down at a puddle on the ground and smiled at her reflection. Until it was that she felt that overwhelming sensation of darkness again. She heard another crash of thunder that sounded like it came from right behind her. She pulled her hat down over her eyes, afraid of what it could be. When she opened her eyes and let her hat go, she saw a dark figure standing behind her from within the puddle.*"

Wearing tattered robes and wielding a blade that reminded him of the one he could wield when the time was right. Did the realm he'd escaped have its own bounty hunters? People sent to hunt down people like him that'd finally escaped?

He wasn't sure that people would ever make their way back to this world, but he could hope so, and he could start making improvements now. Working towards completely building the city back to what it was. That would be... Nice. Giving another terse shrug of the shoulders and gesturing around. \n\n\"Well, its not much, but its my home\", he mumbled as he sat down on a nearby wall that was mostly destroyed by the ages and whatever happened here, \"And I guess its not really much to look at, but I guess anyone is welcome. Not like I can exactly say no to the help, right\"? He finished with a chuckle. His hands resting on the cold brickwork that had been laid long before he was alive and will hopefully be there long after him too. It really _would_ be a lot of work to keep everything working the way it should, and it would take people that know more than him on how to get the infrastructure back up and running. There could only be so many construction workers before the city needed running water and a stable source of food that wasn't random heads of lettuce that had sprung back up or... \n\nHe didn't want to think about it. \n\n\"Say, it sounds like you know something about travel? Are there other places out there?\", he asked. Tilting his head lightly, \"Like this place but not... Wrecked\"?"

It wasn't exactly a place he'd ever been, and he didn't know what would be inside of it. Maybe survivors huddled away in there. Maybe one of those bigger heartless survived in there. Either way, he didn't make the rules. He merely wanted his home to feel like a home, and that would require other people if that would ever come to fruition."

The weapon materializes within a few seconds as usual, sure, but something about it is different. The colors, the inherent strength of the key compared to the balanced nature of his usual weapon. It's one he's never seen before, and yet, it feels so familiar. Soon after being summoned, the key drags itself through the air in Xanaros grip, forcing him to point it at maleficent just before the lightning strikes. Something about it seems to be pulling him, screaming at him to fight her. \n\nHe's no fool. The difference in strength is immeasurable, and he would do well to find a break in the situation to escape through a portal back to his world. Though, he just cant bring himself to. Not only is the keyblade influencing him, something deep down inside is telling him to help the others fight her. He hadn't ever met the woman before- and yet, he cant help but have a sense of hatred for her. If Nobodies could even feel it. It's almost as though its the sentiment of another, compelling him to act. Not out of justice for the lives she ruined, but out of a personal vengeance he cant quite understand.\n\n```Xanaro has summoned \"Sun Above\" As his weapon.```\n\nSoon after, Xanaro rushes towards maleficent- Allowing his new Keyblade to drag against the chapels floor, sparks following him in his trail. He's putting in maximum effort in order to even try to keep up with maleficent, along with relying on the power brought by the lack of a heart. The nature of being neither light, nor dark, lacking existence. ``Phase two, and Rejected Unbeing``.\n\nAs he chases after maleficent he aims to jump atop her platform with her. He swerves left, right, attempting to avoid the dark Thundaga entirely, but there's little use. He's not strong enough\n\nTo fully evade the attack, even with his skillset. So, instead, he braces himself for impact, leaping after the woman by jumping through the air, using ``Air Slide`` to glide through the winds that are being produced, in order to reach her.\n\nHe is of course hit by the bolt of lighting- His speed allowing him to pass through the electricity with lessened damage taken. This is aided by his natural resistance to darkness while in this form, only stumbling as he aims to land atop her floating platform.\n\nAssuming he lands what he is going for, he lands atop the floating floor, glaring at her with dull eyes, readying an attack in the span of a few seconds. He then swings the golden keyblade upwards, followed by a slash downwards, and one more at her torso. He then repeats this process, turning it into a barrage of ``Ars Arcanum`` for a few moments. It likely wont hurt her very much, but it's something to start the assault with the hopes his temporary allies would join in. It's an exhausting use of techniques, resulting in a giant loss of stamina.

Nilus' fears only deepened as the sounds of a girl crying rang through the chapel.. And then the Witch laughed... What in Hades did he get himself into? The visions of Glory that awaited Nilus once he had saved Traverse Town began to fade as fear set in. \n\nOnce the Witch used the floor as a platform to move around and began to cast her Dark magic spells, Nilus began to realise this was a really fight, not just a spar against someone but an actual to the death battle. This would be his first test, his first true test. Whoever this was, that commanded the darkness and rained hell in front of him, they were sending chills down Nilus' spine.. Was he afraid? \n\nHis feet were stuck to the ground even when his Allies began to charge at the Witch, Nilus could only watch as the panic set in. If it wasn't for the combined efforts of Xanaro, Xion, and Cavall, Nilus would've been flattened by the Dark Thunder raining from above. \n\nHe knew he had to do something but fear was gripping onto his feet, desperately attempting him to stay still. Unconsciously his Keyblade took a new form, changing into a Shield reminiscent of Zeus and his warriors. \n```Formchange (Guardian) - 10AP drain````\nNilus was stunned, had he really lost all confidence in himself that he unknowingly changed his keyblade to a shield? Had he really fallen that low? What happened to the brave Olympian warrior that he thought he was? Was that facade ever really him?\n\n\"Keep.. Keep it up Traverse Team!\" \n\nA small voice in the back of the room is all that remains of Nilus after facing such terrifying Darkness. What was he even to accomplish with a SHIELD? Nilus attempted to throw his new shield at Maleficent, barely scratching the Witch before his Shield returned to his arms.

He figured the man had been gone for good, but it was a.. Pleasant surprise? He cant quite place why, and it fails to matter right now.

Deep inside, it's something he feels he needs to do, even if he cannot remember why.\n\nAnd so, once Xanaro is done purging Maleficents bile, he readies his keyblade in a combative stance once more. He looks at the battleground. His eyes follow the Bursts of light, Rainbows burning bright, and the Darkness used in tandem for a righteous cause- all directed toward a being of unbridled evil. He sprints after maleficent after finding an opening, maneuvering around the attack's of his allies, taking quick steps across the room as he follows the woman's floating platform. Once he's close enough he drops to the ground in order to slide underneath the chun of debree, before leaping into the air and throwing his Keyblade at maleficent with a ``Strike Raid``, aiming to strike her from behind. Once the dust of Xion's explosion clears, he rushes in, leaping back onto the platform and, aiming to strike maleficent from behind with a melee swing. He has very little to say, but still utters a sentence within the chaos of it all, nearly a mumble towards maleficent once he's in striking range. \n\n*\"You are a Pitiful Existence, born only to destroy.

I CAN FEEL THE CHAINS DRAINING MY LIFE\"\n\nWas that what Nilus had been reduced to? Begging for his life in front of the battle he had so desperately sought after?

What a joke. \n\nBy the time Cavall reached Nilus and broke the chains binding Nilus to the ground, the Olympian was a broken mess. It wasn't Maleficent's magic keeping Nilus from the fight, it was Fear. It was fear that slowly rose from the ground and attempted to drag Nilus back under with it. Fear was the emotion whispering into Nilus' ear, fear was the emotion miserably advising Nilus to leave. \n\nAnd what was he to do? His weapon had transformed into a Shield. He had subconsciously lost the battle before the battle had even begun. He was against some of the strongest Magic he had ever witnessed, some of the strongest magic that the entirety of OLYMPUS could ever witness. What was he to DO?\n\nAs the battle raged on, as his allies fought tirelessly against the Dark Witch. Nilus gripped his Shield with uncertainty, he had never froze in battle before, not ever. Why now? Nilus shut his eyes and the chilling sounds of battle slowly died down, he could no longer hear the anger of Dado or the Joy of Xion. Everything inside him simply shut down to a state of nothingness. \n\n\"**Fight boy... FIGHT**\"\n\nHe had heard that voice before. He knew exactly who that was. The same person that had gifted him his strength, the same person that had entrusted him with his power. The same person that Nilus demanded Glory in service of. Had Nilus forgotten who he was? He was a descendant of ZEUS. A Warrior from Athens. He did NOT back down. In one hand, a shield, in the other.. \nNilus summoned a Second Keyblade. \n\n```Limited Ability - Synch Blade - 30ap```\n\nHe was Nilus of Olympus, Defender of Traverse Town and most importantly, Descendant of Zeus himself.

But maybe by warning his allies he could actually do something.\n\nArriving at the Chapel.. Nilus only had one emotion flood through him. Not fear, not despair, not shame... But relief. The witch was nowhere to be seen. Had they defeated her? Nilus doubted it but he had no alternative ideas about where she disappeared to.. Instead in her wake was a dragon. An enormous black dragon that must've been the monster that Nilus felt earlier at the entrance, the one that destroyed the floors and ceiling, the one that Nilus came here to warn them about!

He had lied to himself that his allies would be fine without him but the situation was truly terrible.

He had begged to be freed and protected from the Witch and then ran as soon as he was free.. But worst of all, the warrior that freed him now lay dead on the ground. It was all his doing.

Gain some courage and say it to my face, instead of speaking behind a shield.\"`**\n\nBenny would spit out coldly at Shiranai, almost as if she had no regard for his humanity- which she really didn't. It seems that her personality has completely changed. From a repetitive bean, to whatever this was. She'd then sigh, closing her eyes and then simply listening to Kazuha realize who she was. Smiling and opening her blood red eyes, with them now glowing with the generosity of how she was going to explain why and when she got to this point- and maybe even how she did, she'd simply begin to say in a rather monotone, though a tad bit joyful, voice. \n\n**`\"Listen here and listen well. The girl didn't transform me into this being- instead, a stronger entity wielding what looks like a large key- she took all the light from me, and then the darkness took over. The darkness is the key, you see...\"`**\n\nBenny chuckled lowly, and then raised her eyebrow, now staring at Kazuha's face and then shrugging her shoulders. Letting out a small sigh and then tilting her head to the side, she'd frown and would simply glare now. Her mood depended on what these whole beings said, and that was saying something. One wrong move, and she could do a complete 180. \n\n**`\"I am the embodiment of darkness. I am one with it.\"`**"

Fighting, perhaps- though not right now. She knew that they were possibly on equal ground, so she simply waited for now.

Still fighting me to the end...\"\n\nSoon after those words were said, Suke's body would begin to fully fade away from being felled with light and a Keyblade. A crystal heart would fly up into the sky before vanishing yet Kingdom Key D still stayed on the ground where she once stood."

Though, the mechanic's typically were.\n\nHe scratched his head and simply trudged toward the portal. Running around being ambushed was not fun, but technology was adjacent to what they were here for. Or maybe there was yet another thing about these damn keys *He* Was not aware of that the other two were.\n\n\"So?\"\n\nIt was a simple question; He gave it in his simplistic way. Though just in case, or out of sheer frustration, Furo wanted to expand the question so much more.\n\n\"What if it is a trap? Can I convince all of you to leave with me? Leave with me when we knew there would be traps waiting for us? Leave with me after pushing the other team whose problem I wish was only theirs to willingly brave the brunt of the situation so that we can sneak in?\"\n** **\n\nFuro turned to Icidro, the oh-so honorable knight. The man, who despite his gentlemanly front, was crazed and chomping at the bit to enact some type of punishment on the squatters of the castle. The callabero stood there, with his exhausted frame puppeteered by collectible objects of incomprehensible power and use. Barely a foot in the door and he had emptied his tank at the first challenge they faced.\n\nFuro turned to Sapphire, his expression softening as he wished he had left her out of the loop to start with. The young lady he failed to scare off from a life or death situation that even he barely had the facts on. Yet she stood in front of him willing to do more than just support the group in this troubled time.\n\nFuro looked squarely at Bradamante. The big man with the biggest desire to fight; Scared. Smaller than the conclusion of that desert world. Not sobbing, yet seemingly closer to breaking than Furo feared.\n\n*Why were they here?*\n\n\"Why are we here?\"\n\n*What was the point?*\n\n\"What was the point of me chewing out that old lady for her people dragging two of my friends into one death trap, only for them to willingly run into another?\"\n\n*Were they wasting their chance to go?*\n\n\"I would be perfectly fine leaving and not looking back if y'all come with me. I would be... Until I force myself to look at the regret on all of your faces.\"\n\nFuro stood as tall as he could make himself, body centered on the portal. No one was getting through if he could help it. He needed an answer to any of the questions he put out there before he would let someone through.\n\n\"I came here with you all. Im chasing after you two blind as you both play around with these stupid, giant keys. So what if one of them gave us a path to the next objective? I've heard that \"Guiding key\" Quote. Is this not a basic function? Icidro has not attacked us, and he may fall over if he tried. Are we in more danger than I've already complained about? If we are, then explain it to me.\"\n\n** **\nHe looked down at the water pooled around his feet. His own doubts reflected back upon him as he struggled to think further. He talked big and steeled himself, yet he was probably already too late to slavage the people his friends were before this.\n\n\"T-Tell me... What we do next. I'm tired of trying to play this game of yours missing most of the rules. I'm also scared. Terrified... Of losing someone close to me again.\"\n\nDropplets rippled his image in the water as he palmed his eyes. Furo looked back up to his friends, upset but waiting. Resolved.\n\n\"How are we proceeding? If we had the time I would love to find another way, but we don't. So do we run now and bear the shame, or do we push through the storm... Together?\""

She was only here to prove to herself that she wasn't weak and can make a difference but this was no where near her fight. She only knew what was told to her and it wasn't the full story even. \n\nShe looked around at the group she was with, could she even consider herself as their friends? They were practically strangers whom she attached herself to. It was clear to her that she in this instance was an outcast, following along a group like a lost dog wanting to belong somewhere. \n\nThis wasn't a fantasy where in the end everything would turn out right. She couldn't treat this as an adventure that she had read in a book where the good guys were able to defeat the evil that plagued their stories.

He pictured their bonds growing stronger, fighting off the encroaching darkness in their hearts, turned to light and blossoming into heroes. He had been all too ready to celebrate the death of that Heartless. But now... As he stood alone, watching his friends crowd around a teary-eyed Furo, he could only notice the gap between them. He was here for his friends... Right? He was here to do what was right? To save people. To lead them to a better future. To fix all the problems he'd been so powerless to stop before.*\n\n*And then, as if solely to make his heart stop, that wicked blade. It happened almost in an instant- a black rod lined with crimson, a sickly weapon that pulsed like a beating heart. Umbral power poured off of it, so sickening that it made his ribcage rattle. As if something within him pulled towards it.*\n\n*Brad wasn't sure when he raised Noblesse Oblige. Brad didn't know why he was pointing it at his friends.

His heart began to pound in his chest, and his mind raced. Again, his chest shuddered, but not quite as it had before. Was this the darkness he was keeping at bay? But it felt like... Justice. A deep, banal call to cut their arms off at the wrist, so they couldn't hurt themselves. If they couldn't protect themselves, he had to protect them, right?*\n\n*But these were his friends. These were his family! Cid just had a whole speech about the importance of that! Sapphire and Furo were steeling their resolve! They were all standing together, and here he was, ready to spill blood and hearts to 'keep them safe.'*\n\n*And he still wanted to.*\n\n*He wanted to so bad. They didn't know. They didn't understand. There was darkness in them! How could they know just how important the light was!? That it was the only thing that separated them from the beast they just killed! No matter how human they looked, and talked, and acted, they were monsters! And his inaction would turn them to monsters too! And he'd have to kill them anyway!*\n\n*Brad took a step back, a shuddering breath escaping him.

She looked down at the keyblade in hand still as she tightened her grip, if this keyblade came from her using the darkness, then the darkness she shall use but not like how Pira has. Even if she were to lose herself she knew that the storm riders would make sure she would not bring harm to anyone. \"I can figure this out later right now... Right now a friend needs us.

What was— When the big man comes bulldozing straight toward them, however, the Caballero staggers in an attempt to help pull Furo out of his way, and, of course, takes the brunt of the impact and nearly gets sent flying for the effort.\n\nPulling himself up from the water, Icidro splutters on his hands and knees momentarily, before shaking his head and moving to stand, the Kingdom Key striking the stonework as he uses it as a crutch. Sweeping a hand through his wet hair, Icidro blows out a breath that shakes his already rattled nerves; He processes the knew information faster than he probably thought he could, judging by the wave of emotions that cascade across his face. \n\n\"Right behind you!\" He calls back toward Sapphire, after locking eyes and nodding in turn. What's gotten into Bradamante? Icidro understood only half of what was going on; The battle was certainly hard on his friend, but he'd been acting strange since even before they'd landed on world! It scared him, how high-strung tensions were, and the fever-pitch the normally cool Bradamante had been burning at.\n\nIcidro hurries through the portal, before looking to back toward Furo for confirmation that he was following along."

The stark realization that what he was looking for had more than faded urged him to claw in vain for what was taken from him.\n\n\"Damnit. Dammit! DAMMIT!\"\n\nThe lone boy rapped his fist upon the wall before giving in to his spiraling emotions.

So please come back\"\n\nDelirious and overcome by the moment, the best the boy could do was struggle to his feet through use of the wall. He tried to push back against the reality of the situation, but he had to face the facts. He had been separated from the others and left wholly directionless, and that was not going to change anytime soon.\n\nLeft, right, he knew where he was but not how to proceed. It had been Icidro who knew the pathways, and it was a heart that led them to the dungeon. Furo had neither now.\n\nArms crossed as he held himself, he backed away slowly before stopping in the center of the room. He searched for the correct answer at the split pathway before him. Should he press forward and search every room he came across, or should he attempt doubling back and scaling the castle from the outside?\n\nNeither option sounded feasible nor safe, however, his choices were oh so limited. There was nothing else in flooded area except scorch marks an—\n\n*Wait?*\n\nRubbing his eyes, he focused on the fact that a released heart had brought him to this point. When Suke was defeated, her heart floated straight up. \n** **\n\nHe brandished his storm-forged sword and leapt at the ceiling. Metal screeched as the blade scraped along stone, barely scratching into the surface. He fell back to the ground beyond frustrated but with something to go off of.\n\nTearing apart the castle had been something they were trying to avoid, but An exception needed to be made. Furo silently promised to build Icidro a new castle when everything was said and done. Right now the fastest way from one point to another was to go straight, so he was ready to ask for forgiveness later.\n\nThe water in the room was once again displaced as the mechanic coalesced the air currents around himself. He jumped skyward slashing at the ceiling, downward at the a wall, rebounded off the floor, back to the ceiling, then to the opposite wall. He would repeat the cycle anew relentlessly. Space was limited, and this technique needed an open area to build the proper momentum, but he would make due.\n\nRicocheting himself in what was essentially a closed box, Furo's underground Stratosphere began making progress with each passing at the ceiling. The underground rumbled and debris slowly broke away as he chipped at the obstacle above him, but it was slow. Far too slow.\n\nHe grit his teeth and commanded himself to move faster. Lightning answered his call turning him into a swirling vortex of rage and power. As a response, wear and tear became distinctly visible on any surface he touched until, ever so surely, the ceiling gave way to his demands.\n\n*But he did not stop there.*\n\nFuro continued to push upward as he intended to smash his way through each floor until he found his friends. Nothing else mattered which meant everything was in the way."

But the others would not be happy with him. \n\nThough they would be safe...

He wanted to shed a bit of weight to be more evasive, but also he was running hot at this point; If he did not let off steam in all sorts of ways, this was going to become the nightmare he feared.\n\nThe young man brandished his blade and popped his shield into the air with his foot; Rather than catch it, he let object float around him like his own personal satellite. With this he was ready to David this damn Goliath.\n\nWith a turn of his head, he regarded the princesses, or witches, to find cover or escape.*\n\n\"Ponytai—er... The one with pretty blue hair! Could you lead the others away?!\"\n\n*While unaware about the importance of them being here, he oddly realized that most of the women he ran into had a ponytail; Even Sapphire had one as he idly thought about it.*"

These wielders began fighting to gain as much light as they could, and thus, get more powerful. They wanted this power so desperately, that they summoned Kingdom Hearts! For those who don't know, Kingdom Hearts contains powerful light and is supposedly what saved the world from darkness. These wielders all died trying to get that light, killing each other over it until no one was left... So you see, darkness and light aren't so different. No matter what era, what people, what area, people will fight over power! People will crave that power and will betray their friends for it! Many of you scold me for using the darkness, however you never thought about what destruction light can bring. Aria saw it, it's why she allowed you, her students, to use it moderately.

Vani does follow my orders, everything she did was under my command. Kill me and she will be lost without a goal of course... And of course *I did* Destroy those islands didn't I?

The emotions he felt during the flashback, the emotions he felt being threatened by the storm riders, the emotions he felt when he couldn't feel Dado anymore, it all festered inside perfectly for Vani.

In a pulling motion from Vani, the Parasite ripped Ranoa's heart apart, coming out with his darkness. After being pulled out, the parasite would use his darkness to take a form, and, upon finishing shaping itself, would look like Ranoa himself, but dark, edgy, and clearly evil. The dark Ranoa would bow to Vani before turning and glaring at Ranoa. Ranoa would feel his conciousness begin to fade from the pain and lost of half his heart.
