Kingdom Hearts: The 13th Requiem [PG-13/Not Accepting]

[Mugendramon]

Omcraxs raised an eyebrow at the sprite's actions. Strange that it would delete files as unimportant as that, but not the backup of the most dangerous wildcard in the last hundred years? Hm. I guess machines can go delusional.

 

Suddenly the whole place shook. Omcraxs was thrown to the floor, caught off-guard. As the whole room rumbled on, the Nobody managed to get back to his feet. "Is this your shitty computer's doing, Haxz? What the hell is going on?!"

 

He turned to the computer. "What did you do, TRON? This isn't deleting Paint, how did you manage to SHAKE THE WHOLE ROOM?!"

[Super Chaos Sonic]

The scream of the old man echoed, catching Balthazar's attention. "We have to go," Balthazar said before bolting through the door. He followed the direction from where the cry for help came, not waiting for his apprentices. He figured they would catch up to him anyway. He say the three Heartless, and all the other people were running around, save for the frail old man cowering in fear of of the Hit Hop. One Greaser chased after a man, but was suddenly consumed by flames. Balthazar had his hand outstretched, keeping his eyes the Hit Hop. "So now there are Heartless. The Organization has to be speeding things up now." The large Heartless turned a bit to look at Balthazar, then nodded at the remaining to go take care of him. Balthazar gathered an plasma bolt and launched it at the Greaser, blasting it to smithereens.

The Hit Hop fully turned away from the old man, charging at Balthazar. It held its boombox up high, slamming it into the ground. Balthazar launched another plasma bolt at the Hit Hop, but it held up the boombox as the face on it swallowed the bolt. The boombox was surrounded with electrical energy before smiling. The Hit Hop ran full speed at Balthazar, but the sorcerer blasted a gust of wind at the ground, launching himself into the air and launching three fire balls at the Heartless. Balthazar landed in front of the old man. "What are you doing? Get out of here!"

[hr]
The Creeper swung its larger "feet" at Zack. It barely knew a thing, just that it really hated this Zack guy for some reason. It dodged some of the strikes, but some of them hit. Three, it counted. Suddenly, Jumpsuit appeared through a Corridor of Darkness and was aiming right at the Creeper, but it coiled around the even weaker Nobody. The Dusk exchanged looks with the Creeper and Zack. Delighted to have help, Jumpsuit pounced at Zack, and so did the Creeper.

Trevor heard Balthazar's main sentence: "We have to go.." and watched him bolt out the door. He looked at the blade and sheath he held in his hand and quickly put it on his chest, letting the blade and sheath be seen from his back. He hurried after Balthazar, not fairly certain where he was...until he heard some explosions from attacks. "This way!" he said, running faster, until he saw Balthazar fighting a new creature...these were different from the ones before...what were th-.... Wait a minute...could it be...there are a few inky looking creatures...they were mentioned in those kidnappings!! he thought....now things were making sense...somewhat. "Balthazar! What the hell are these things!" he asked as he drew his blade from the sheath and slashed one, before casting thunder on another.

Zack was completely thrown off when the Dusk appeared. He was doing fine fighting off the Creeper, but now someone else had to join the fun. "Well...just what I needed right now." he murmured as he moved to his left, dodging the Dusk's pounce, and barely dodging the Creeper's. He twirled the scythe in his hands and he rushed straight towards the Nobodies...starting with the Creeper.

 

However, the Creeper had something else in mind. It used its strange feet as wings and flew above Zack, dodging it.

 

Well...didn't know it could do that! Zack thought, as he went straight for the Dusk, slashing it upwards and then jumping up to spike it down on the ground. Then a small flaming pumpkin appeared in his boney hand, as he tossed it at the Creeper, watching it explode on impact. "Thank you dad for teaching me that move! Hopefully these idiots will stay down!"

[The Warden]

"That wasn't me User. Take a look."

 

Somehow, TRON brought up a large image of the whole castle in its new configuration. "The Possessor class Heartless have almost completely possessed the Castle itself, turning it into one large terror. Much of the castle is already infected by the Possessors, resulting in the Thresholder Heartless guarding all the doors, while the Gargoyle Knights and Gargoyle Warriors guard the castle from within and outside. More Possessors are heading this way by the way, so, since... okay, I'll be honest here. I found the files already and were trying to delay, as I'm not actually capable of deleting such files, but, at this point in time I don't really want to be infested by a Possessor Heartless. I'll give you the files and then we can leave. Being your slave is at least a better fate than being consumed by Heartless."

 

The hard drive flashed several times, before finally darkening again. "Okay, I'm ready to come through so just... ?!"

 

Haxz had pulled out the hard drive, which probably did some damage to it somewhere. "Haxz, what are you doing?!"

 

Haxz smirked whilst chuckling slightly sadistically. "You're just a program TRON, I don't make deals with programs. But, I'll give you some advice, when you intend to backstab or subvert someone, DON'T say you are doing it when the situation requires you to actually keep your word. Plus, I am curious to see what would happen when this terminal is infected by the Heartless, ah, here they come now."

 

The floor of the room blackened as several Possessors floated through the walls. One drifted into the Scanner on the wall, rendering it completely black with a single yellow core. The bars tore themselves from the wall, and began twitching erratically like limbs. Another drifted into the door to Ansem's office, and up from it sprouted half a Thresholder, it's long gangly arm was stuck in the door, and another came through, indicating another Tresholder on the other side keeping the door shut.

 

More importantly, a Possessor flew towards the terminal. "Haxz please! I know you're a Nobody, but this is horrible even for one such as yourself. Please don't let them do this to me!"

 

The Possessor stopped, put off by TRON's pleas. It looked to Haxz for guidance, and he nodded at it. The floating puffball continued, floating into the terminal, rendeing it black, with gold trim as usual of Heartless. "HHHAAAAXXXXXXZZZZ!!!!!!! ... I am ready to serve for the glory of the Heartless master."

 

An image of TRON appeared on screen, and he certainly looked... anti-climactic. He was exactly the same as before, except his armour was now black with yellow neon lines, and he had the samy beady yellow eyes common to Heartless. "How do you feel TRON?"

 

"I feel... like serving the Heartless with all my capacity, for example..."

 

Through the glass window, the machinery in the cleft became active. Rows upon rows of Hearts appeared in the glass viles, and the machinery began to work. Streams of energy cascaded from the four dishes below, and Heartless appeared, before vanishing. "I just reactivated the Heartless Production Facility that the Restoration Commitee thought they disabled. It can churn out an army of Heartless within minutes. Within the hour, we will have the power to overwhelm all of Radiant Garden. Also, I took control of the old Claymore Defence System; just in case someone feels like being a hero. There will be no one to stand against us."

 

Haxz broke out his sadistic grin, and he chuckled loudly. "Gambled, and won; wouldn't you say Omcraxs?"

[Barian Warlord]

Xemyrom followed Kreix to the library and looked through it as Kreix talked to some of his subordinates, it was obvious that they were planing to betray him but Xemyrom knew that so long as he had information they wanted they would not act recklessly. After looking through all the documents that had not been organized yet Xemyrom finally found a page but it seemed to be the only one there and after a quick read he began to walk towards another room.

"I found something that looks very usable."

After walking a bit Xemyrom came to a wall which was strangely undamaged, all the walls around it were damaged but there was not even the smallest crack in it. Then Xemyrom raised his arm opening a Corridor of Darkness, it opened a path to the other side of the wall in it were seven beds a computer at the far end and a table in the middle and after reading the coded documents on the table he walked over to the computer and typed in the words Another Memory and it seemed like the computer became more active and a greed disk appeared around Xemyrom's feet  and slowly moved up to the top of his head and then back to his feet and disappeared.

"It looks like I can now access a large sum of Xehanort and the Organization's research, I have a lot to go through so you might want to find something to do until I finish with this you can leave your subordinates here if you want."

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Lightning was still walking the streets of this labyrinthine city when she heard an man's scream coming from an alleyway. She turned to see a trio of Heartless, one massive, the others skinnier and with strange hair, fighting against some others. As the others dispatched the weaker Greasers, she started to build up a sprint down the alley, then activated her Grav-Con system with a soft snap of her fingers, not loud enough for them to hear, and jumped high into the air. As her body's resistance to gravity was lessened, she soared until she was just about to pass over the Hit Bop, at which point she snapped her fingers again, and came plummeting down, the gravitational pull greatly increased. She pulled out her Blazefire Saber, the weapon unfolding into its blade mode, and positioned it so the blade would be pointing down when she landed...right on top of the Hit Bop. The poor lumbering Heartless never stood a chance as he felt a sharp blade go right through his head and deep into his body while some person, the one holding the blade, used his gelatinous body as a cushion for her impact. Lightning pushed off of the Hit Bop, somersaulting back while causing even more damage to the lumbering beast, and the Hit Bop exploded in a flurry of green orbs and yellow prisms. Now that all of the enemies had been dispatched, Lightning holstered her weapon, went up to the old man, offered a hand towards him, and asked him. "Are you alright, sir?"

[Mugendramon]

Omcraxs saw the newly formed figure of TRON. He slowly frowned and emitted a low growl, before stretching his hand to one side and having his sword appear.

 

Completely disregarding Haxz or whatever this Heartless said or did, Omcraxs wasn't thinking. He just saw a Heartless. He didn't like seeing a Heartless. So he did what was in his hands to stop seeing it.

 

Three seconds later, there was a sword struck through the monitor. Needless to say, it stopped working. He drew the sword from the monitor, and brought it down again, this time on the console. With a deep breath, Omcraxs sighed and placed a hand on Haxz's shoulder. Looking to the other side to avoid Number II's eyes, he apologized. "I'm sorry your had to see that, and that I may have ruined your project. Hopefully it's still somewhere. But I REFUSE to be standing in front of a Heartless and doing nothing. Much less let it speak to me, let alone CONVERSING with it. I won't ever cooperate directly with a Heartless, so remember that next time you, what'd you call it... gamble."

[Kōsuke Ueki]

Ryan barely had any time to react to what Balthazar had said before him and Trevor bolted outside the building. He then heard barely heard Trevor after hearing a small series of explosions and proceeded to run after the two, hoping the others would tag along. He wasn't sure what was going on, but he knew that he would have to fight again. Plus, he still wasn't fully recovered, but it was better than he was when he fought those Nobodies earlier. And again, adrenaline was pumping through his veins as he ran towards the action. Looking at the battle in front of him, he noticed something. He remembered about a few kids who disappeared a while a back and the only clues were ink-like creatures. Now he knows they were wrong. Their hearts have been taken by the Heartless. He then heard Trevor ask what those things in front of them are. "They're Heartless, Trevor, and by the looks of it, very challenging ones!" He then ran up to him. "We need a plan if Balthazar can't handle this alone. You got any ideas by any chance?"

[Super Chaos Sonic]

"Plan? I have no idea how to beat these things...I was just planning to slash and hack at these so called Heartless. Honestly, its the only best idea I have..." Trevor said, still a bit preoccupied with trying to beat the five Heartless that were coming at him. Three tried to strike, but he was able to dodge the attacks somewhat, quickly swinging the blade horizontally to watch the three Heartless dissipate. "Where are the others?! We could use more than us two and Balthazar!!" he asked James, as he pointed his hand with the ring on it toward another Heartless, casting Fire on it.

 

[hr]

 

Damn....I'm really not liking this... Zack thought, seeing the two Nobodies rising up from his attacks. They were a lot tougher than he originally thought...heh, and he thought his dad was bluffing that he had a hard time trying to beat these specific creatures. The young skeleton knew there was about one thing he had to do right now: run to Oogie's Manor and find out what the hell happened.

 

The Dusk swirled around the air about Zack, and fell straight down, only hitting the ground as the skeleton jumped back. "You guys aren't any fun...so BYE!" he yelled as he ran away, back on the trail of Oogie's boys....having two Nobodies tailing him.

[The Warden]

Haxz looked mildly confused during Omcraxs' little outburst, but then, he laughed. "What project, it was obvious by the look on his face that he was going to go completely nuts at us. I think you did us a favour; since we don't really want an intelligent Heartless roaming about anyways. Course, now the Claymores are probably going nuts outside, and the Production Facility will spew out Heartless relentlessly; but that isn't out concern. We've got the Sora data, we have nothing else to do here. Unless you feel like walking about inside a giant Heartless castle."

 

He laughed at that thought, and summoned a Corridor of Darkness a few feet away. "Let's return to the library, where the big computer is. Also, you might wanna get that whole 'psychotic attacks on Heartless' looked at."

 

He walked through the Corridor, and once inside, you could almost here a "HA!"

[Mugendramon]

A nerve in Omcraxs's head twitched. "I am standing... INSIDE... of a GIANT... HEARTLESS..."

 

The Nobody suddenly started seeing red. It wasn't just the terminal, the entire PLACE was a Heartless. And it was about to meet hell.

 

The Wraith by his side watched him slash furiously at the walls, and at the weapon system preparing to reduce him to smithereens. It knew it wasn't about to let his Master die, not knowing it would mean getting his invisible, nonexistent ass to itself by The Almighty Superior. It had to interfere.

 

So, as quickly as it could, it opened a Corridor of Darkness leading into Omcraxs's room; and shoved the Greater Nobody into it, quickly following.

 

[hr]

 

The Corridor spat Omcraxs and the Wraith out just so that the former would land on his bed. Looking around, and not seeing any more Heartless-walls, he calmed down. Calmed down enough to notice that there was something caressing his chest, but it didn't feel deliberate. More like, something hovering above him...

 

Hovering...

 

Omcraxs grabbed immediately above himself. He caught the Wraith by surprise, after which it uncloaked and flew away from its Master. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING. WHAT HAPPENED JUST NOW."

 

The Wraith, still evidently panicked, raised two fingers once again, like it had done the first time it had been threatened.

 

"You... are you the same one that came with me to the Garden?" The Elite nodded. Omcraxs pondered for a few seconds, looking down, puzzled.

 

"So... it was you who pulled me out of the castle. Right?"

 

A nod.

 

"I see." Number III stood up. "Come with me then, no need to resume cloaking. I have something to talk to the Superior about. But before that..."

 

Grabbing his sword, which had fallen to the side of the bed, he stood up. He then walked up to the corner of the room at the feet of his bed, and dropped the blade. Sand formed, and Omcraxs stuck his hand in it. He pulled out his coat, and later the sword. The sand reverted, he turned to the door and opened it. "We're walking. Or at least, I am."

[Merci]

All of a sudden, Balthazar bolted out of the building, quickly followed by Ryan and Trevor, leaving Viola confused in the dirt for the moment. They had ran like athletes and they hadn't even sped themselves up with acceleration magic. Of course, she bolted out of the shop right after them but quickly grew tired. When was the last time she exercised- oh right, many months ago. Quickly running further into Manhattan, she decided not to use her own magic - it was better to save it for the real battle, if there was one.

 

By the time she had made it, the field had been cleared. The two apprentices plus her master, a warrior woman, and an old man stood alone.

 

"Yo, guys~...anything I miss?" Viola asked, still trying to catch her breath. "Oh, and who're those two?" She pointed towards the warrior woman and old man.

[Nexev]

The old man seemed a bit annoyed, perhaps cause everyone else was so quick to take out what was giving him so much trouble. He seemed to have quickly gotten over it. "Ah yes hold on, lost my specs, temporal confuddleshimshammery you see." Searching his purple robes, the man put on a pair of black glasses. "Ah Balthazar, how convinently relevant, I was looking for you when these rapscallians ambushed me when my mana was on the dry. Hold on," Fumbling in his robes the man pulled out a ether and used it, refilling is mana. "Much better, anyway salutations and good greets, I am Tellah the sage, and I'd like to reward you all for saving me, I have a good deal of magic, as you know I'm a sage, I just said that and everything, so a good old fashion wish or two isn't too hard with enough creativity and a good supply of these weird blue cubes i am not entirely sure how to use!" Tellah said truimphantly, showing his new friends a good supply of Ethers. And it's true, how the hell does one use a blue cube? is it absorbed? Is it eaten? Mystery of the world.

 

Good luck sleeping at night kids.

[Premier Alexander Romanov]

Lightning noticed her new compatriots, a man who appeared to be at least twice her age and dressed in some sort of trenchcoat, a blonde-haired youth with headphones and a yellow outfit, a girl with black hair, glasses, and a variant of a schoolgirl outfit, and a brown-haired young man with armor and brown clothing. She notices the girl point to her and the old man she just helped to rescue, and then the old man offered his services to the group. She looked to her own wounds from the crash, then to the one she aided, and asked Tellah. [color=#FF69B4]"Would you please heal me of my injuries? I sustained these when I arrived in this world."[/color] She then turned to Balthazar and the apprentices. [color=#FF69B4]"You may call me Lightning. I am formerly of the world of Cocoon, until the Heartless destroyed it. Even though it is a long shot, I am trying to find my sister, Serah. Unfortunately, I somehow crash-landed on this world, and I don't entirely remember how I got here. To further complicate things, this world does not accept Munny, and I have nowhere else to go."[/color] She draws her weapon, unfolding her Blazefire Sabre into a sword, then kneels, bows her head, and raises the weapon above her head towards Balthazar. [color=#FF69B4]"If you are willing to provide me with food and shelter, I will help you however I can."[/color] She needed their help, as they could fight Heartless, and therefore knew what a Heartless was. And if they knew that, why shouldn't they know of other worlds besides their own? It was a gamble, but Lightning had nothing else to go on. This was her one chance to get some much-needed help, and she was swallowing her pride to do this.

[The Warden]

Haxz returned to the Library through his Corridor, and there was some kind of uproar going on, with many of the Deadbeats and Gamblers up in arms about something. Boothe, sensing his Master, went straight towards him. "Master Haxz, the Paladins are back in the Library."

 

Haxz rubbed his temples in annoyance, this was going to be good. "I thought we banned them due to their constant heckling and general disturbances. And the one accident we all shan't mention."

 

Boothe eyed a shelf nervously, then bowed quickly. "They came with the Superior, and we, we dare not question his authority."

 

Haxz rolled his eyes and leaned his elbow on Boothe's back. He exhaled loudly before speaking. "I'll go talk to him then."

 

Boothe very kindly pointed Haxz in the direction of Kreix.

 

[hr]

 

The complete lack of Deadbeats and Gamblers meant Haxz had found the sweet spot, and loe and behold as he found Kreix flanked by two of his tin dumbasses. "Y'know Superior, I know you really can't go anywhere without your little entourage, but I'm pretty sure you know that all Paladins have been banned from Library. My Deadbeats and the Gamblers do tend to work a lot better without these four-legged assbots heckling them constantly, yes, I'm talking to you."

 

Haxz glared straight at Doxfer. "My men are more than enough protection from your precious little guest. So kindly dismiss your men before they leave something unremarkable on the carpet. We do work here after all."

[Love of Ghibli]

Needless to say it took a while for Nerhyx to come to terms with his current status as an automobile, but eventually he accepted it and realized that one didn't necessarily have to know in depth car mechanics to actually function as a car. His brain still controlled his basic motor functions so he could actually roll around quite well. While driving down the random empty road that he was traveling down he noticed that there was traffic up ahead and a lot of it. When he pulled into the new crowded lane he noticed that all automobiles are "alive" in this world. So he decided too chat up his neighbor in traffic.

 

"So what pray tell is all the commotion about?"
Don't you know anything? The Pinston Cup is today! The King, Chick Hicks,and Lightning McQueen are fighting FOR THE PINSTON CUP WOOOOO! This is the most awesome day of all awesomeness!
 

Noting the man...car's? enthusiasm Nerhyx quickly surmised that this was an important event where he could surely do some damage. Though at the same time his mind is set to the summoning of monsters that could vary from many type of lion-esk oddities to fish monsters and the like. Never before has he thought of what a monster car would looked like. And how a heartless of that magnitude would function. Maybe he should do like he did with other worlds and let some other entity do all the heavy lifting for this world. 

After a long and grueling slow pace trot through traffic he finally made it to the event and watched as he was able to get a nice seat or parking spot as it were in the stands. Luckily the race hadn't started yet and he was able to see the big screen where the announcers were reviewing the racers and their accomplishments. Nerhyx absorbed such information like a sponge and this was the most interesting that cars could still have such events. If they are self sustaining like this then this must be the equivalent of a track event. Nevertheless there were the three individuals worthy of note that stranger had mentioned before. Nerhyx didn't know if he should be impressed or not but at the mention of Lightning McQueen the crowd cheered. He just happened to be close to these two little red...seemingly female cars that were just fanning over that one car. 

Eventually the race had begun and Nerhyx had carefully watched as this Lightning McQueen bobbed and weaved throughout the cars and it was impressive. Reflexes are reflexes and this kid had some good ones. What was equally interesting was to watch the green car subtly bump into other cars causing a massive crash. Of course this was quickly followed up by Mr. McQueen surpassing the whole car pile up without incident. Once again impressive well that was very impressive. A little while into the race race this Lightning McQueen made the decision that he didn't rotate out his tires. While this wasn't the most interesting fact it seemed that everyone else was all in some form of an uproar. Guess knowing about cars would have been useful information. 

Then it happened...Lightning McQueen's back tires blew out and the King and Chick Hicks came up and long story short it was a three way tie for first place. Nerhyx rolled down to the stands where paparazzi were located. Being quiet and borderline invisible works even when you're a car. He watched as this Lightning McQueen's malignant narcissism flare up as his pit crew quit on him. While the narcissist was an interesting tell Nerhyx had his eye on someone/thing more promising. The green seemed to have more malice running through his engine. Nerhyx figured that car would be a good place to start.

[Phantom Roxas]

Kreix bit his lip when Haxz barged in. As if he needed his smart mouth to add to his frustration. Then again, Kreix was planning to dispose of Xemyrom after all this diary nonsense was done. It's not like Haxz would complain about that. What he was complaining about, however, was the Paladins' presence in the library. "Well, Haxz, as the Superior, I can just as easily overrule that decision and allow these two to do as they please." "Hah, suck it!" "However, if they're bothering you so much, I'll send them away. Doxfer, go check in on that Dusk." Doxfer snarled. "You were saying, Doxfer?" "Fine, fine, I'll go babysit that little twerp." "Lexyk, go look for Xelo and Nehryx. I haven't heard from them in a while." Lexyk bowed, and the two Paladins vanished into their own Corridors.

[hr]
As Zack ran towards Oogie's Mansion, Jumpsuit and the Creeper followed after him. Doxfer appeared further behind, and saw the two smaller Nobodies chasing after the boy. "Oh for crying out loud, he's not even at the Phantom yet." Doxfer galloped after the two, grabbing them both with his clawed hand. "What the hell are you two doing, and what is this Creeper doing here?"

Jumpsuit opened its mouth. "Oh, hi, Doxfer. We were just pursuing that boy. That's fine, isn't it?" "Eh, whatever. Kreix just sent me to check on you because Haxz got all butthurt about Paladins being in the library." "So, I'm not in trouble?" "Of course you are. I want to see the look on your face when you meet the Phantom!" "…But I don't have a face." "That's why it's going to be so hilarious!"

[hr]
Lexyk decided to start his search with Nehryx. However, it resulted in an expected side effect. Nobodies were used to having their bodies contort in various ways, but this time Lexyk knew it wasn't of his own decision. His body felt much smaller, but just as strong. He realized that he had become a car. "Well… this is unexpected."

[Love of Ghibli]

The race was over and it seemed everyone was in an uproar. Nerhyx now by the sponsors area sneaking in with the paparazzi. He overhears Lightning and Chick talk about how  the first one to get to California it was then he decided that there was his opportunity to get at his target. But first he had to make sure that he was able to separate the two opposing parties for an extended period of time. And the apparent day it would take get from wherever they are to California was not enough. He was rolling around wandering out of sight of anyone important and that was when a white grayish silvery knight came rolling in. Well it was the form of car but there was a flashy nobody symbol on the trunk meaning that it had to be a comrade. Nerhyx was able to drive down to the car and speak to the vehicle.

 

"Hello there...who sent you? In this world I can't tell what your original forms are."
I am Lexyk a servant to the Superior.

 

Nerhyx's eyes lit up as he felt honored that he was greeted by one of the assistants of Master Kriex. He was also glad to learn that Kreix had a preferred title "The Superior." This was all good information. Nevertheless this could be something interesting. The paladin as a car did look like a high performance vehicle who was able to go quite fast if properly motivated. Nerhyx was clearly contemplating the logistics of his plan. After figuring it out he looked at Lexyk and if he could rub his chin with intrigue the he would be doing that.

 

"Well since you are here there is something I would benefit your assistance here. I see the superior has a great sense of timing. But first we need to by some time and distract that Lightning McQueen fellow on his journey to California." he says as he and Lexyk rolled out of the stadium and went into some place unseen. It was here Nerhyx tried to think of the proper way to summon heartless in this realm. He made a note to think about a show that he saw once while he was waiting for someone. What was it called?Oh right Pimp My Ride. Nerhyx closed his eyes and around him arose the for gaping holes of darkness and from them came four vibrant cars of various colors. These four various cars had a multicolored exhaust and Nerhyx motioned for them to go after the Lightning McQueen's truck. The four roll off and they do so.  Meanwhile Nerhyx and Lexyk drive off in another direction. 

While driving down a seemingly endless road Nerhyx spotted his target. It was a large green truck that was clearly carrying around precious cargo. This is interesting thing though. By bobbing in and out of traffic Nerhyx and Lexyk finally made it next to the truck and through some slick talking he was able to get the truck to pull over to the side and earn an audience with Chick Hicks. 

 

So what the heck do you want there stranger? You better have somethin' important pulling me from the most important race of my life. 
Nerhyx's right eye/headlight twitched as this was another arrogant villain that he had to convince to join his cause. Nevertheless this had to be done in service of the superior. 

"We are hear representing...TCTNW. Corporation and we would like to sponsor you for the last race of your career."
Sorry to break it to you pal but I don't need your sponsorship I'm about to land Dinoco. So you a little late to be wanting to sponsor me and all. 
"But you aren't going to win your Pinston Cup tie breaker race. In fact I can see your defeat, most likely you'll place third like you usually do and you will fade into obscurity never to be heard from again." 
OH you got you some tires! Talking to me like that!
"I only speak the truth. How about we make a wager. You will race against my friend here." He motioned to Lexyk and the paladin nobody was emotionless. The green car looked at Lexyk in some form of defiance and he took his starting position. The race started and the two cars were off. It seemed as if Chicks was speeding pass his opponent with ease until Lexyk decided to try. Within seconds the paladin sped past Chicks Hicks and easily made his way back to the starting point. Nerhyx simply shrugged because of course victory was assured. When Chick Hicks rolls in with shame across his face Nerhyx simply smiled with that typical villain smile. 

"Your van has already been outfitted with the proper technology that will help you exceed your current limitations." Don't worry when it comes time to discuss what you can do for us in the future. For now just race."

With that Nerhyx and Lexyk drove off into the night and seemed to disappear from the sight when in actuality they had went into a corridor of darkness. 

[Mugendramon]

Omcraxs and the uncloaked Wraith navigated the broken down halls of the castle in search of the Superior, with no luck. They did find one of interest, however.

 

Whilst walking through the Hall of Empty Melodies, the Wraith behind Omcraxs was hit in the back by something. It was pushed into Omcraxs, who in turn grumpily turned around with a menacing stare. The Wraith was quick to panic and point behind itself, into nothing in particular. Number II understood this, and let out an "Oh."

 

"Reveal yourself. And tell me your reason for bothering me, however you can manage to."

 

The newly appeared Wraith did as commanded, while still looking somewhat angrily at the one which had been following Omcraxs. However, its only means of communication was the inaudibly screech. Son only the other Wraith understood.

 

"-.- . -.-- -... .-.. .- -.. . ..."

"-- . .-. .-.. .. -. .. .- -."

 

The second Wraith knew very well what to do with this information. It promptly flipped the fuck out. Omcraxs sighed and punched it to the ground, which managed to calm its nerves. If ever did it have nerves.

 

The first Wraith sighed as well. Seeing as how this wasn't going to take them anywhere, it decided to leave the matter be.

 

So the Greater Nobody resumed his search for Kreix, his two Wraiths behind. One wisely cloaked and angrily staring, the other merrily uncloaked and being stared at.

 

[hr]

 

About to give up, Omcraxs wandered into the Library. Perhaps Haxz would know where he was. Sneaky bastard always knows where everyone is.

 

He was however relieved to find Kreix there. He got down to business. "This may sound a bit childish Superior, but I would like to name this Wraith behind me, and since I've never actually done anything of the sort, I was wondering whether I could ACTAUALLY do that, or if I needed your permission for it."

[Nexev]

In the depths of the underworld Hades stew, sure Genesis possibly could beat Hercules but Hades been doing this for awhile, every time he summoned some angsty hero type with ties to darkness they always switched allegiences and started giving him trouble, Terra, Cloud, Auron, it was a big list. Hades sighed, what he need was a wild card, some plucky whippersnapper who would fight wonderboy just to be the best, Hades doesn't even care about killing the guy anymore, that ship sailed away once Wonderboy learned how how to minor in being a lightbulb.  So since Hades couldn't kill him he can still prove his imperfection, give him something to rub in for a few centuries and so on, audiance would love it too and what can Hades say, he loved his people. 

 

So what kinda cold dead luckless fool should he drag out from the depth of the underworld?

 

Suddenly with a loud crack the fabric of existence broke yet again and a small aging old lady walked out of this tear right into Hades designated plotting room.

 

Hades blinked, this was not something that tended to happen ever, sure plucky youngsters with more boots then brains break into his house all the time, but a old woman? WHO BROKE THE UNIVERSE? Noooot so much generally. "Okay okay, I'll bite, what is your reason for me not to turn you into a burn stain in 5 seconds?" Hades said, getting prepared to have his heartless escort the woman to the big spooky green pit of perpetual flushing, though he had to say she looked familiar...

 

Suga Momma stuck her finger in her ear puling out some earwax tainted by the unfathomable darkness between worlds, "What was that sonny? You got a stain? Do I look like cleaning services?" Suga Momma grumbled. "I came here for the fights, heard you got some seats to that hades cup, but seems i took the wrong turn somewhere, confound this interdimensional gps,"

 

Suddenly it clicked, Hades recognized this old woman, she wasn't exactly plucky and young but Hades wasn't going to get anyone better. Hades crouched down to get to eye level with her. "Actually you went to exactly the right place, lets cut to the chase, I'm hades lord of dead, take my card, hey take two if you want. Now you got something I want and I got something you want, you want to see the fights, I need someone to fight. So hey, had a crazy thought, stay with me here, why don't YOU join the hades cup? I get my fight, you get the best seats in the house to see the fights, who needs backstage when you will actually be in the ring?" Hades snapped his fingers, "Oh better idea, why don't we make a bet while we are at it, theres a long time champion of this cup, wonderboy, glowing demigod of heroics, do you know him? So wonderboy is great and all but you can't have the same champion all the time, it gets stale, so why don't we make a bet? You take out wonderboy-don't have to bother with any fancy tricks or anything just wipe the floor with him- you do that and I will give you front row seats to all underdome matches for life, heck let me double that offer, beat herc and you will get to keep those tickets even when you kick the bucket. The best seats in the house for the rest of existence. So we gotta deal?" Hades held out his hand ready to make the deal.

 

Suga Momma stared at Hades considering his offer, blue people never were up to any good but she did want those tickets. "Hmmm, is there a catch? This whippersnapper wont die or something will he?" 

 

Hades chuckkled. "Unfortunatly, no. Believe me, I'd give anything to get that thorn out of my side but he's out of my reach now, Plus I've tried to trick your types before, never ended well they always got the power of love, or friendship and something and frankly it got old. Trust me, just watching wonderboy get knocked around silly is more then enough for me."

 

Mulling it over Suga Momma decided to trust him, shaking the dead gods hand, and a new contestant of the hades cup was decided, Hades smiled, this one will definitly be a crowd pleaser.

[The Warden]

Haxz was going to rant further, especially about that one time the Paladins tried to declare war on the library, or when they played pin the tail on the Deadbeat, or How many Gamblers can be shoved into that safe, or that time they practised jousting and then got wasted afterwards. But Omcraxs once again got in the way, he really does make a living off doing that doesn't he? "You didn't know? We've been naming a good deal of our men as a sense of familiarity with them... and status. You'd be suprised how much status matters amongst them. But that doesn't matter: Superior, I got the backup files of Sora; but, as for TRON, do mention it next time a swarm of Possessor Nobodies no doubt sent by you are consuming a castle where we'll be working at. It's just common sense y'know?"

[Phantom Roxas]

"If you want to name your Wraith, fine. Their your personal Nobodies, and I won't stop you. It's when something as pathetic as a Dusk begs for a name when I couldn't give a rat's ass what they should be called." Kreix turned to Haxz. Was he going to go on about the Paladins being banned from the library? He would certainly have to talk with Lexyk about this. The other Paladins mocked Doxfer for his embarrassing attempt to woo a Dancer, among other things. Lexyk was the responsible one after all, save for being unable to bring Doxfer in line despite his best efforts. Of course, what Haxz was actually talking about was more important than Doxfer's stupidity. "Alright, I'll admit that was careless of me to keep you in the dark about the Possessors, but were you honestly scared about them? The Heartless are our pawns, and you could just as easily have told them to back off as you resumed your work. Just don't be so surprised if I ever do this again."

[hr]
And once again, James fell behind the group, although he was disappointed that he couldn't see Shuren. Not that it mattered anymore, since both Balthazar and this mysterious woman had take care of the Heartless. "Oh, don't worry about the Munny," Balthazar said. With a wave of his hand, small yellow prisms flew out of Lightning's pocket and into Balthazar's hand. Using his other hand, he crushed the Munny, and opened up his palms to reveal dozens of twenty dollar bills. "There, this should help you pay for anything in this world for the time being. I'll set up something so you could stay at the shop." He turned to the older gentleman. "You're welcome as well. That is, if you're on our side."

Three books materialized, each one opening up to reveal a small magician garbed in green. A dozen Soldiers appeared to protect them, and to their sides with two Greasers, and in the far back stood the Hit Hop. In rolled its head, making a cracking sound with its neck, and it swung the boom box over its shoulders. "This is why we need the Keyblade. If it doesn't stop them, these things will keep coming back." Balthazar stepped forward an launched a plasma bolt at the Soldiers, but the Bookmasters flew in front of them. The bolts hit them, but the Bookmasters didn't flinch at all from the attack. "Those green Heartless are immune to magic. Let's see if those weapons are something."

[Super Chaos Sonic]

"Immune to magic? Well that just puts a damper on things...." Trevor sighed, as he spun the broad sword in his hand a bit, looking at the Heartless. This was becoming a huge tedious task now. And Balthazar was right, a Keyblade would be useful...but they'd have to worry about that later.

He rushed toward the group of Heartless with a speedy start. This was perfect...a real challenge for his new found speed...he smirked as he thought about it. He got up to the Heartless group as he slashed a few of the lesser Heartless, watching them get knocked back. Then Trevor turned his attention to the green Heartless. "Heh, I got your number right here, ya freak of nature!" he said, as he rushed toward the Heartless, striking at its waist, then slashing upwards on its chest....before he jumped back to dodge the attacks it would bring forth.

 

[hr]

 

Zack didn't hear any pursuers, which meant the Heartless were gone....but right now he didn't care. He had to get to Oogie's Mansion and figure out what was going on. Though right now, he was wondering why Zero was taking so long to get his dad. I honestly hope nothing's going wrong over there... he thought, heading out of the forest clearing, now seeing the mansion in sight.

 

[hr]

 

When Zero arrived back in the Town Square, he was shocked to find that it was swarming with Heartless. And there fighting them was Jack. Bark, bark, woof...fronlavin...

 

Jack heard Zero and smiled, before attacking another Heartless Ghost. "Zero! What's the matter boy? Where's Zack?" he asked, listening to Zero's barks and ruffs and whatnot. The bone man nodded, before throwing a pumpkin at a few Shadow Heartless. "I see...but I can't just drop everything right now. I have to stop the Heartless here. Go find Zack and tell him he's on his own for right now." he said, watching Zero nod and leave.

[Mugendramon]

The invisible Wraith would have looked pretty shocked by Number II's question, if it hadn't been for the fact that said Wraith was perfectly cloaked. It was even MORE shocked when Omcraxs turned to the uncloaked one.

 

"So I can just name you. Very well... let's think of a fitting name..." The uncloaked Wraith was trembling with excitement. The other, with rage. - .... .- - / .. -.. .. --- - / .. ... / --. . - - .. -. --. / -. .- -- . -..!?

 

"Oh, I think I've got one. I'll name you... Starscream."

 

The uncl- no, Starscream was left wordless, as was the Wraith behind the Greater Nobody. The air felt like a cold chill had just swept across the library. The newly named Wraith's mouth hanged open.

 

The Wraith behind Omcraxs silently and calmly flipped the fuck out.

 

Omcraxs heard Kreix's words on the matter of the possessors. "I would have warned you Haxz, except you were so goddamn vague about the place we were in that you forgot to mention it was the same place I followed you t- I mean, first went too... I mean... Oh, fuck it. You didn't tell me where we were. If you had, I could have let you know."

 

Meanwhile, the cloaked Wraith behind Omcraxs noticed the computer sitting unused. Stealthy and unnoticed, it levitated across the room and lit up the device. It invisibly grinned as the keys seemingly pressed themselves and showed a world in the database. A red sign in the middle of the screen read, "unexplored". Convinced of a job well done, it undid its cloaking and pointed towards the monitor. Then, pressing a few more keys, one of Vexen's entries concerning the Keyblade lit up in a small window to the side. The Wraith then pointed first at the picture of the keyblade, then at the picture of the world.

 

"So this is the world I was tasked to explore?" Nod. "And there is a Keyblade?" Nod, three fingers raised.

 

Omcraxs turned to Kreix. "Well, Superior; looks like we have our next Mission? While Haxz works on our 'main plan', that is. "

[The Warden]

"We're Nobodies Kreix, we can't get scared. Nonono, see, the thing is is that everything was going well until the Possessors consumed Ansem's computer. From there, dear Omcraxs here promptly flipped the f**k out and impaled it. Sufficed to say, unless we get an especially skilled repairman, that Terminal and all knowledge it contained is officially useless to us now. Applause all around for that one. And it's kinda hard to control Possessors when you're mocking the AI you betrayed because you knew it was going to betray you; in all, kinda hard to stop that sort of thing really. The good news is, even without the computer, the Heartless Production Facility in Hollow Bastion is still active. Right now it's probably churned out over five hundred Heartless; by the end of the day the Radiant Garden will be literally dyed black."

 

Yes, Haxz was ignoring the Wraiths. Really, they're pretty annoying as far as Nobodies go.

[Love of Ghibli]

Nerhyx stepped out of his corridor of Darkness happy to realize that he was not an automobile. This time he was actually following Lexyk around and it seemed as if they were in some world he didn't quite recognize. It seemed familiar just different. It didn't matter though. Any drastic changes are probably the will of the superior and if that is the case then there is no need to complain. While walking around following the Paladin he could hear faint voices come from the distance. As he got closer the loyal nobodies face grew more dismal for he recognized a couple of them. It was II and III. Depressing really, all of that extensive work going from world to world giving the gift that keeps on giving while tiring did have its one upside. He didn't have to associate with these two now that is about to change. He finally approached this library place following the Paladin and he laid eyes upon the superior himself.

Oh that just made Nerhyx's day. He was once again in the presence of his master. It's like he was being healed and his energy being restored as a gift for all of his hard work. Just being in this man/Nobody's general line of site should be an honor. Of course the other two were here as well, no doubt wasting this precious opportunity to bask in the awesomeness of Kreix with their disobedience and sarcasm. Nerhyx wondered why these two always lucked out and got such audiences with the great one. Well Haxz makes sense sort of. His element is luck, he's for some inexplicable reason knowledgeable about all things Nobody oriented, and if one needs a court jester one should look no further. Omacrxs must be a novelty aspect...and that's about it. The Nobody with a conscience. Its a nice tagline if anything.

Nevertheless Nerhyx simply stood by silent. There was some plan being discussed about a replica of some kind. He noted that there was a replica plan attempted before but he remembered it did not go so well for the Organization. Nevertheless through Kreix all things are possible.
