OOC: ((okies that's a very very long post and it's so full of drama and trauma, be warned lolz))
==========================================================
Like a Lightning bolt, his keyblade flashed through the three nobodies, their empty shells dispersing into silver shreds at it's touch. Two others dusk appeared behind him, their stretching silver limbs whipping the air into his direction. Leon swiftly dodged the first one stabbing his keyblade right into the nobody's head just as he caught the other dusk's extended limb before swirling around delivering a clean slice to his wiggling shell.
Those were perhaps the tenth wave of nobodies that has been defeated by the keybladers yet that did not stop them from spawning back again and attacking on and on. They were able to secure almost everywhere of the town save for the main square and the docks were the attacks have been concentrated. However, fewer and fewer keybladers were left standing as the wounded soldiers were carried back to the ships leaving only the strongest to take care of the rest of the nobodies.
This needs to be wrapped up, we don't have much time..., The young keyblade master grunted as he slashed through yet another creeper nobody clearing the main square from the nobodies before proceeding to the docks alongside Anorgos. Though just as they arrived two new waves of these strange white creatures surrounded the two leaders, however, unlike the ones before them these nobodies seemed different and much stronger.
Just what I need, Leon thought sarcastically as he regained his stance, holding his keyblade behind his back as his sharp eyes scanned his enemies, the Samurai nobodies.
"
Fine, let's get this over" Just as he finished his words, his keyblade began glowing brightly as Leon charged it with a lightning spell. "
Thundara." The black haired keyblader said as he threw his weapon at the seven samurai nobodies surrounding him, powerful Lightning strikes bolting and zigzagging out of it's tip as it tore and slashed through the nobodies like a boomerang, killing them on the spot before they could even attack him. Landing with ease in his grip, Leon dismissed his keyblade with a slight smile, catching a glance of Anorgos as he finished off the hammer nobodies with such a powerful move. He couldn't expect any less from a Strong Keyblade Master like Anorgos and his former teacher.
"
Its good to see you were able to make it here Leon." The armored master said as he turned to Leon, dismissing his own crystal keyblade in a gleam of light.
Leon couldn't but smile at his old master with great respect and was about to reply when he was interrupted by the sudden arrival of a new stranger in the scene. "
Anorgos" Bufis yelled as he approached the keyblade leaders, earning a suspicious look from Leon who didn't know how he knew Anorgos's name.
"
You can feel it can't you?......I cannot tell you how I know this... but.. There is a massacre at the Academy! I was assigned a mission to inform you of this... those that didn't come with you here... are probably dead.."
"
what?" Leon's features tensed, his first reaction of not believing the stranger's words. He was sure that they left the keyblade academy under the guard of the best keyblade generals and soldiers they have, it would totally be unbelievable that something as a massacre would occur but... it wasn't also impossible.
"
You, will accompany us as we finish clearing this town of the attack creatures, and then you will tell us everything you know about what is happening with the attack on the academy." Anorgos said, leaving Bufis no other option but to do as the Keyblade Leader ordered him. Leon Knew all too well to not trust this stranger even if he was telling the truth, that would make him even more suspicious.
"
Anorgos, I'll let the bahamut return back to the academy to ma-...eggh" without a warning, a powerful hot wind hit the small town like a large shockwave, almost ripping it from it's very foundations just as a Blinding blue light could be seen piercing the sky in the distance forming into what seemed like a giant Phoenix, it's thunderous roar filling the air with it's outrage.
"
A Forbidden spell?" Leon lowered his keyblade slowly, worry and uneasiness storming his grey orbs as he gazed at the giant Phoenix. He didn't need to think twice to know who could summon such a powerful spell as that.
Aronee...
"
Anorgos, I'm sorry but I must go...I must help my friend." Leon told Anorgos,knowing that Anorgos would understand his position, before he strangely and unexpectedly threw his Keyblade towards the only ship in the docks, a moment before he himself disappeared with a bright silver light.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A jolt of pain shot through her body as her back hit and rebounded off the edge of the ship. She tried to catch herself before falling but she crashed on the deck, her face landing hard on the wooden floor as her breath was knocked out from her. She laid on the ground barely hearing anything as her vision hazed over and threatened to go black.
Taces...Sleif..., Aronee wanted to call out but couldn't, She wanted to stand up and help them but her body refused to move or listen to her, She felt so weak and heavy as if there was a whole mountain over her back.
"
Sleif" a voice called out, it was so far away but Aronee thought it was Tace's. Slowly she raised her head slightly upwards, hardly able to catch what was happening, however, what she saw next snapped her senses back into work.
"
S-Sleif" Aronee shouted, panic and fear taking over her as she watched her friend getting sucked in an unspeakably terrifying portal as Taces tried to pull him out. Devilish hands wrapping around her friend and pulling him into their cursed depths. She tried to force herself to stand quickly and run to help them but her legs gave in so easily, still so weak and in shock from the last attack. She landed on all her fours, splatters of crimson liquid covered the wooden deck as Aronee started to cough lots of blood violently. Her hand clutched her mouth trying to stop the blood and get up but it kept coming at her with waves of unbearable pain. She cursed herself and her uselessness as she tried to overcome her weakness. Yet she still tried to stand up again now using her other hand to support her as she directed her gaze towards where Taces was standing, only to find that Sleif was gone...No Longer there...No more...
"
You bastard Bring him back," Taces yelled at Gears. The realization that one of her friends was gone seemed to tear her from the inside, like thousands of knives stabbing ferociously her heart.
He...He C-Ca-n't be...Gone...He just can't..., her eyes were wide with shock and disbelief,
It just can't be...
"
Or you will do what rush me," Gears taunted, causing Aronee to whip her head in his direction and as if realizing what was going on, her heart beat stopped as she looked at Taces, her feet pressing the ground as she ran with all her might to stop him before...
"
NO!!"
((
click me))
She froze, her eyes unable but to watch horrifyingly how the mace struck her friend with one lethal blow.
Taces...
"
Sorry Sleif, Aro," was all he said before his body fell harshly to the ground...unmoving and still.
Aronee was on her knees, her hands falling limply to her side, her beautiful face blinded by shock and denial, her aquamarine eyes disbelieving what they just saw as the tears came down rolling on her cheeks unstoppably.
This is ...Impossible.....It's all just a nightmare...This is not real..., she grasped her head, closing her eyes shut from this tormenting sight, wishing from all her heart that this was nothing but a horrible nightmare. But it wasn't...Her Friends are...Dead...This is her reality...This is all her mistake...she was so slow...so useless and worthless...so pathetic...so undeserving...and soooo late...too much late.
"
So much potential wasted on a kid like you," Gears said as he pushed Taces off the ship and into the depths of the Ocean...Like he was nothing...like it didn't matter...as if it was all just a game to him...How Could he?...
How Could HE?!
"
I think a better question would be what are you, you’re not human and you don't seem to be one of use," Gears turned to the new arrival, totally ignoring Aronee and what he just did, not noticing the change that was going on.
"
How could you?," It was just a whisper but it was clearly audible as all the eyes suddenly turned towards Aronee who was standing up. Her eyes hidden beneath the bangs of her hair not showing her feelings, however, It was just for a moment before the sudden wind blew away the cover revealing the pure rage in her glass like eyes.
"
HOW COULD YOU?!"
((Click me again))
There was a sudden shift in the atmosphere around her causing the air to appear as if it was rippling as the pressure of her power was suddenly unleashed almost piercing everyone's being with the intense scary hostility and intent to Kill. In an instant her staff appeared glowing brightly in her grasp as Aronee locked onto her Targets.
"
Ardor"
From the tip of her magical staff, a blinding Azure light shot like a beam towards the sky, piercing the heavens just as an incredibly hot wind hit the ship like a giant shock wave causing it to rock violently from side to side, threatening to flip the ship into the waters of the ocean at any given moment. All the while Aronee stood totally still not affected by what her forbidden spell was causing but only concentrating on the giant azure blue flames in the skies that started to take a certain shape, the shape of the Legendary Phoenix. The Azure hellish Phoenix causing the air to blaze with even more heat as it roared out with it's master's rage, the same burning azure light reflected in Aronee's eyes as she pointed her staff towards the nobodies with only one word uttered "
Burn..."
Instantly the Giant Hellish being propelled towards Gears and Boxar, directing all it's malice and it's undieing flames at them. Aronee whom the spell has taken it's toll on what's left of her strength and stamina fell back panting and fighting to stay conscious as the world started to fade from around her.
Maybe this is the end... or not?
In the midst of all of this madness, there was a powerful clang of metal as a keyblade with a distinctive black handle struck the floor right in front of Aronee. A keyblade she knew all too well to whom it belonged. Could it be...?
In a gleam of Silver light, the person she never thought she'd see again stood in front of her picking his keyblade, His deep grey eyes meeting with hers as he leaned beside her casting a curaga spell.
"
Leon...How di-"
"
It's ok Aronee, You can rest now,...I'll take care of everything." He said assuringly, his usual smile perching on his face before turning around to the nobodies, taking his signature stance as he held his keyblade in a reverse grip vertically behind his back.
"
So you are the ones behind all this mess," There was another moment of silence before he raised his hand with a large thunder orb. "
Sucks for you." He said throwing the large thunder orb at Boxar and Charging at Gears in the same time hiding the true purpose of his move.
