Sora stepped back, before he swung his blade at Smith horizontally, seeing the man on one knee. A battle cry left his lips as he swung, hoping to land a hard hit. Smith lifted his gunblade, his blade coming in contact with the Keyblade before it got close to him. He brought up his empty hand and called upon the powers of darkness, using Dark Aura against the teen who was right in front of him. Sora felt the fireballs hit him, forcing him to release a cry of pain as he was sent back through the air a few feet. He landed on his back a few yards away, feeling the pain of the three dark orbs that had managed to impact his chest and leg.
I'm glad. xD Nope. xP The talking is over, and the battle has begun!
Sora saw the gunblade by Smith's side, but he didn't care if the man had his weapon or not; Sora had his, and he was about to use it. He charged, swinging his Keyblade at Smith with a battle cry. Smith dodged the attack, having been prepared for such an action. What he wasn't prepared for, though, was Sora's quick recovery. He saw Sora swing his blade at him repeatedly, the man managing to block each of the attacks despite his initial surprise. He grunted when Sora finally landed a vertical hit, following it up with a second one in a move called "Blitz".
Yeah. I couldn't see how to work it in, though, so I changed some things around. xP
Smith glanced at Kairi, hearing the girl speak for a change. However, he ignored her, seeing that Sora looked like he was at a loss for words. He took a few steps forward and to the side, stopping when he was standing a few yards in front of Sora. "As long as nobody knows what's going on inside of your head, you can act like the Darkness hasn't gotten to you." Sora clenched his hand into a fist, a soft snarl leaving him. Smith needed to shut up, before he said anything else that could bother him or his friends. Smith needed to die.
That Riku thought he was doing them a favor by staying away from home, when he really missed out on their lives and the danger that came along the...
"Or maybe I'm protecting them," Sora said in a low tone of voice, not ready to let Smith get the upper hand on him. He hated that this man knew so much, and he hated how he seemed to know how Sora's heart worked. "Them? Or are you protecting yourself?" Smith asked, tilting his head to the side slightly as he stared at Sora. "As long as it's never mentioned, you can act like nothing happened. You can act like you're not the failure you see yourself as, or that you've got it all together."
That wasn't what I was originally going to say. xP I changed it at the last minute because I couldn't incorporate what I wanted.
Smith shifted his gaze to Sora, seeing that the brunet was now going to humor him. He was going to have fun with this; he always taunted his Nobody, but now it was time to attack the real person. "Afraid of the truth, Sora? You always were too weak to handle it. You don't share problems with your friends, because as long as you keep it to yourself, you can pretend it didn't happen. Lying to yourself shows the ultimate weakness."
Okie dokie. xD But I'm sure I'll have to take it in college...
Sora glanced at Riku, seeing that he wouldn't defend himself. The brunet felt fury at this, afraid that Smith could possibly be telling the truth. "Stop trying to mess with us!" he cried in outrage. "You don't know us!" Smith was always judging them, always trying to make them feel low. And Sora was sick of it; he just wanted to end it right now.
I didn't take precalc. xD I wasn't smart enough for it.
"You were terrified of the darkness," Smith reminded him, noticing how the teen stayed silent. "Even if that's in the past, I know what you fear now. You fear normal life; that you can never belong with your friends. That was why you stayed away for so long, battling Heartless and staying by yourself. You're a reject." Some of the things that he said were based off of what Xehanort's Heartless told him, while a lot of it was based off his own speculations and observations.
Glad I never had to learn much of it. xD
Smith rolled his eyes, the idea preposterous. His expression spoke for itself, though, so he didn't bother expressing that idea verbally. Instead, he took it as an opportunity to taunt another enemy. "You're one to talk of fear," he said, staring at Riku with amber eyes. He knew of Riku's past, and he knew what made Riku tick, thanks to Xehanort's Heartless.
Good thing I don't speak Spanish, then; I'd sound weird saying I was bored all the time. xP
Smith looked to Riku, a bit surprised that the older teen had jumped in. He had been quiet thus far, so it was strange to hear him speak up. He released Namine's jaw, his hand coming back down to his side as he glared at the teen. "I could ask you the same, Riku," he said in a low tone of voice. "Why waste your time defending a Nobody?" Obviously Riku had spoken up for either Roxas's sake or Namine's, which was something pointless to do for either of them. Namine exhaled a shaky breath, turning her head away from Smith when he finally released her jaw. That had really hurt, and she wished that she could bring up a hand and rub her chin. However, the Heartless behind her wouldn't release her, so she had no choice but to try and ignore the discomfort. She looked from Roxas to Riku, silently thanking him for intervening.
Mmm, sounds like burrito. xP
Smith tightened his grip on Namine's jaw, seeing the fear start appearing in her eyes again. Finally. "It'll be easy for me to do," Smith said, keeping his gaze on the girl as he spoke. "Like breaking a toothpick." He could snap her neck right now if he wanted to, but before he killed her, he wanted to see if he could get more use out of her. That was the only thing Nobodies were good for: being used. Sora glanced at Roxas out of the corner of his eye, having heard his friend's alarmed cry earlier. Smith was laying down a lot of serious threats, and Sora was uncomfortable that he seemed serious about following through with them.
Uh...I don't know any more Spanish. xP I only understand your question, to which I say I am bored. xD
