X stood in a wide blue gap where the water went up instead of down. Faintly he recalled that this place was Hollow Bastion. He looked around, unimpressed. Who would be, considering that you could only see water all around you? Kinda gets boring after a while. So X just teleported away to the Marketplace. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Riku looked around him. The marketplace of Hollow Bastion, if he recalled. But, where was the King? He looked around to see that he was surrounded by people. A man pushed his way through the crowd. From the gunblade that hung from his belt, Riku inferred that this man was Leon. " Hey, need any help?" He asked.Riku shook his head. " Your that Riku kid aren't you? The guy that was Maleficent's apprentice?"Riku growled angrily. " No, not anymore, Sora finished her off, remember?" Riku said. " Sora? Who's that?" Leon asked." And what are you still doing on the floor?" Riku got up, embarassed. " So, how did I wind up here? Last I saw, I was on a road." Riku left out the question that he was going to ask, how come he didn't know Sora? But he didn't say it for fear of them thinking him crazy. After a few more minutes of talking, after which Riku learned that he got here by a pool of darkness, the crowd dispersed, leaving only one man left. This kid however had a different scent, with a shock he realized it was another ' nobody'. Riku tensed, which seemed to make the boy chuckle. " Something funny?" he said guardedly. " One of the darkness, my name is... X. " the guy said. " Your a 'nobody', aren't you?" " You could say that. I am a Nobody, a being of darkness, much like yourself, if I do say. although you seem more... whole." X said. " Sorry, I don't speak in riddles, if your a being of darkness, then I got to get rid of you." " Then don't forget to destroy yourself last," X grinned." You are a fool to mess with the likes of me." Riku drew the Soul Eater, and X drew a simple sword that had the King's crest on the hilt and a silver edge. So the battle began. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Elsewhere, another warrior walked along a path leading to a bamboo grove. This man's name was Auron. His sword, Battlefeilds of War, was strung on his belt. He came here often to train but this time some one was already there. Or rather, two someone's. A man with a large sword with a demon wing on his shoulder was fighting a man with silver hair with a black angel wing on the opposite shoulder. Both of them, Auron saw, had lots of wounds. Since the one with the long katana seemed the more darker of the two, he calmly spit on his blade, and yelling " Banishing Blade", lept high in the sky and brought his sword down, resulting in flames popping out in pillars tomards the man with the long sword. It struck him dead on, causing him to drop to one knee. Grimacing, he hurtled a dark energy orb at the man with the demon wing. That man fell to the ground, greatly weakened it seemed. " Well, Cloud, since it seems I am outnumbered, I will leave you now. " No, .... Sephiroth, we finish....this... now!!" the other man, Cloud, said. " Sorry, but no." Sephiroth said, teleporting in a flash. Cloud growled, then fell unconscious. Auron looked at him then sighed. Hah,hah, chapter two is up and running, as you can see!!
A new story in Creative Corner's everywhere! Storyline---- Set after the events in COM but whilr Sora is still sleeping in that little test tube. Sora is asleep, and in his wake has left 5 Organization members dead or defeated. Riku has left Castle Oblivion as well, leaving two more members dead. One being seeks to take control of the insuing confusion by exploiting both Organization XIII and Riku. Now, Riku and Mickey and everyone will be caught up in a storm of Chaos. Storyline---- Riku and Mickey was walking along a path. Or, to be exact, a path to "dawn". Really, Riku didn't even know where he was going, but any stopping would be proving that Diz guy right. And Riku didn't want that. So he just kept walking . Suddenly, they were approached by a figure. And the thing was, he was dressed in the same robe's they were. Which was kinda kinky, if anyone asked Mickey. So they stopped. And so did the guy. " Well,well,well, it seems that we meet earlier than expected, Riku " the person said. " Who are you? And how do you know my name? " Riku asked. " Who am I? I'm a creature of darkness, as are you. And as for how I know your name, well, my master told me." the figure replied bored-like. " I meant your name." Riku was tempted to say der-der-der, but saved it. " My name? My name the dead need not know. However, I'm very... interested in you, shall we say. Interested in take your hearts and summon giant killer bringer of destruction with them kind of way." When some one says that to you, you either run or draw weapons. Riku and Mickey chose the second option. Even with Soul Eater and a Keyblade pointed at him the guy didn't seem scared. Then again, if you didn't know what the keyblade was, then you would hardly be scared at what seemed like an oversized key. Then again, this figure knew what the keyblade was. And he still seemed amused by it. " So you think weapons like those pathetic things are a match for me do you? How extremely wrong you are. You people put too much faith in weapons and less in...... darkness!!!" At that last word, he puffed his chest out like Lexaeus and Ansem and sent out a tremendous wave of darkness at them both. Not even Riku's new power or the King's light could sheild them against the wave that poured out. Not even Ansems darkness was this strong or foul, Riku realized. As he was blown away, Riku distinctly heard laughter. ------------------------------ Another dark cloaked figure walked long a cliff. This figures name was X. He gazed out over an endless sea. Sighing, he created a Corridor of Darkness and stepped through.
