Kingdom Hearts - Blades of Three Realms

[[XIII] Roxas]

Once Roxas was back with Axel, he decided he was going to stick close to him this time around so they didn't have a repeat of what had happened at Disney Castle. He relaxed a little when he saw that the only real enemies this time were Heartless because those Roxas could handle.

Roveth frowned as he glanced back to see the darkside holding onto Shiro ~hmmh.. Gearfried is fast, but even if i give him another equipment card, he might not be be fast enough to take it out..~ he began thinking to himself while the generator continued working on Shiro, when he heard the others arrive he glanced to them with a raised eyebrow, before resuming his thoughts on how to handle this problem. he then opened an eye and looked at Xehanort with a malicious glint as he flicked out a card, and charged it energy, before throwing it actually toward shiro, which made it turn into a bolt of energy and enter said person as he turned back to Xehanort andlooked to his dragons "do not hold back, keep destroying the other Darksides, and ignore his Plight for now!" of course, the effects of said card would be seen very shortly as Shiro's body pulsed, despite being in raw pain and such.

Shiro of course blinked when the bolt of energy suddenly hit him, sure, he was still hurting, but thanks to the odd mechanical mirror still keeping the pain down somewhat Shiro had been able to focus. he grumbled a bit about being used as fodder for Roveth to surrender and it left a bad taste in his mouth, enough to turn his head to look at the darkside with a frown ~come on... try and crush me!~ he thought, while having one certain sword already imaged in his head that would actually work well in this case.

Shiroi Senko of course managed to duck somehow out of getting caught too, and hid behind Axel and Roxas with a scared 'Kweh!' in general, given he was a bit cowardly against HUGE GIANT THINGS.

Wolfwood just sweatdropped seeing Roveth and his actions, and whistled while looking deeper into the 'heart' of the dark side "you know, i've never really noticed on Shiro's darkness.. but now that it's separate from him... it's enough to choke a dragon on and corrupt it."

Axel raised an eyebrow at the chocobo before forming his Chakrams again and began flinging them to destroy the shadows and help easing the strain on the more humanoid creatures Roveth had summoned "either way, this is going to get ugly fast if we don't get Shiro loose." and proceeded to frown while wondering if he could be fast enough to destroy that darkside, also unaware of what Roveth had done to help Shiro defend himself.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

"This is already getting pretty ugly," Roxas remarked as he gripped Oathkeeper and Oblivion tightly in his hands while slashing through numerous Shadows with ease. "And I don't like the looks of that silver-haired b*****d either," he added regarding Xehanort with an angry glare. "He has the same ugly stench as Xemnas."

He whirled around, casting a quick Thundaga to obliterate more of the Shadow Heartless.

Shiro had about to wince when he felt the tightening, but there was no pain, in fact, it was very odd in general that he should be feeling pain, yet he wasn't, of course, when the fist was slammed down to create more heartless, he saw his chance, as a burst of Mana shot forth, and a deep tone of voice issued from the portal "I am the Bone of my Sword..." he intoned, before dozens of light elemental blades started springing forth ,and then shot from the portal of darkness to start piercing and impaling into the Darkside, with a -lot- more energy backing them oddly enough, one particular sword: a large Zanbatou with a huge circle in it's blade, stabbed into and through the hand holding Shiro, cutting it off, and causing him to crawl painfully out of the portal quickly, panting as the swords continued to pelt the heartless fervently.

Roveth just chuckled darkly as he saw Shiro managing to get himself free, before turning his focus to Gearfried the Swordmaster, who nodded, and vanished from sight, while he tossed another card towards the draconic warrior, which turned into another flute just as quickly as it blew the horn, and in a flurry of power, a third dragon similar to the first two showed up, as well as a smaller, energy based Light Dragon made in oriental style (Divine Dragon Ragnarok, third Blue-eyes.), as Roveth looked upwards a bit before thinking, and proceeded to flick his fingers over the cards within the case, before plucking two, as he brought them out to look at "... Perfect." he muttered, before tossing one at the three dragons, the second one actually going for the draconic fighter and the just recently summoned light dragon. "Xehanort.. allow me to show you the Pinnacle reason as to -why- the Shadows will always be superior to mere darkness, come, my allies, become reborn anew!" he called out, the two cards sucking in their appropriate targets, while the sucking part actually also started to merge and fuse them together. in this case it created a three-headed dragon that roared with unbridled power as it bared it's three heads all gathering energy, and utterly began -DECIMATING- the area of the other darksides in one single attack. the second monster, which was a fusion of the earlier used monsters (King Dragun), let out an aura of power and roar, before oddly enough, a black dragon emerged forth from the depths of hell, with shining red eyes as it fired fireballs at the shadows (Red-Eyes Black Dragon).

Wolfwood sweatdropped at the utter destruction Shiro's dark half actually was causing, given it was almost on par with the recklessness that Crystal did using her power! "is it just me, or does everyone i know tend to overdo things?" he shook his head as he bashed Shadows coming his way into the black dragon's range, while sighing "then again... it's about par for Shiro to do something like that, so it shouldn't be a surprise if his dark half does the same with -less- tact.

Axel of course cheered on Roveth for his destruction, for destruction meant things go boom, and the fireballs had Axel drooling "i gotta get him to teach me how to summon these things, they ROCK! got it Memorized!?!" and causing sweatdrops out of both Wolfwood and Shiroi Senko.

Said chocobo just looked at the fire starter with a deadpan of 'really?' before giving off a wark and moving over to stay near Crystal since she seems to be the sanest at the moment.  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Shiro of course yelped at the sudden reforming of the darkside that had been skewered by the weapons, and suddenly have to curl up before whispering out "Rho Alias!" with that, the Purple and red violet petal barrier formed around Shiro's body to protect him from the pounding, and resulting shadows as he shuddered in pain, but kept the concentration up as he twitched an eyebrow.

Roveth frowned, noticing Shiro's predicament, and looked to the regenerating Darkside, before King Dragun had unleashed another Draconic Aura as it roared, another red black and purple dragon showing up, looking like it came from the very depths of the earth while Roveth pulled out a card, readying it (Meteor Dragon) as the card was flung forth, bringing the demonic looking dragon, and the rock-like dragon, and started fusing the two together before a massive roar comes out, unleashing more molten fireballs from the newly coined Black Meteor Dragon's mouth, though Roveth looked at the darkside itself, and proceeded to call out "go forth my monster.. reveal the true nature of it's regeneration, and nullify it! Wattsquirell!" of course, when said red and white patterned squirrel that appeared probably got sweatdrops abound.. until it disappeared in a blur, and began weaving around the shadows and trying to get anywhere near the darkside to start clawing and biting it.

Wolfwood had switched from using his own keyblade close range, and began supporting Shiro long range by firing his Cross Punisher into the blasts of firebombs and molten fireballs to help the dragons do their job "Shiro get out of there if you can!"

of course, Axel was using his Chakrams to support Crystal also despite the shiedlding and such as he looked towards Riku and Sora's tag teaming, smirking lightly "that guy's getting pressed pretty hard. good." he frowned though, before looking to all the mass havoc around Shiro, and looked to Crystal "you wouldn't happen to have anything to help Shiroi Senko go get his partner and get the heck out of here do you?"  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Shiroi Senko nodded with a determined look in his eyes, spying an opening Corridor of Darkness with Axel's help he proceeded to give off a Kweh in response, before dashing off, carrying Shiro through and into the portal to head off to Disney Castle for real.

Roveth meanwhile saw his Baka light finally getting out of there, and smirked before turning to the black Molten dragon he had fused together with a calm smirk "take out that regenerating one." he simply called out, with a flourish of fire energy, the dragon roared and took off to crash like a meteor into the shadow heartless that Wattsquirrel revealed, and proceeded to turn his attention back towards Xehanort with narrowed eyes, disappearing within a flourish of black leaves, before reappearing, Keyblade drawn, and a card out, the card flourishing, oddly enough into a wicked looking sword, silver in color, but looking remarkably similar to Riku's old blade, while he aimed for a shot at Xehanort's head with the Keyblade, the other sword was actually snaking in underneath for a jab to pierce the side, or the stomach, whichever he could get at the moment.  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Roxas managed to stubbornly repel a good number of the keyblades that targeted him by batting them away with his own Oathkeeper and Oblivion, but doing so proved to be a profound waste of energy as he quickly began to tire from the effort and he still got smashed into the ground by the wave that did eventually hit him. Once the keyblades subsided he was able to pick himself back up again, but not without wincing from the pain that emanated from all the points on his body where the keyblades had hit him both before and after slamming him into the ground to make a huge dent with his body.

Oathkeeper and Oblivion faded from Roxas's hands as he began tentatively checking the severity of his injuries. Thankfully, it seemed like all he was going to suffer for it was some bruising, which he could live with, but it still hurt like hell.

"That was a dirty trick," he complained snarkily once he was through examining himself.  

[Kuukyo_Fushichou]

Roveth of course got pounded not in the chest, but in the back as the Keyblades rained down, though he did take in the design of each within his own eyes, storing them away in his mind, and Soul, which still in a way was tied to Shiro's, however, the pain was definately mounting as he grunted with each hit. once the barrage was over with Roveth laid there in a crater of his own growling lightly "that insolent fool is going to get his face ripped off the next time i see him..." he said coldly while laying there, his own keyblade having been dismissed by the fact he had little energy remaining to move, his monsters had also all disappeared within purplish black fog of their own, including the blade he held trying to attack Xehanort directly while chuckling darkly as he laid there "least that guy will think twice about attacking again though."

Axel of course just sweatdropped while hiding behind Crystal's shield, when the keyblades came flying in he had to yell out "this is so not cool! where the hell are these damned keyblades coming from!?!" of course, he even began smacking a few down to do what he could to help Crystals dwindiling shield reserves, but it didn't help that much.

Wolfwood naturally did the -smart- thing, and dumped himself into a quick-closing Corridor of Darkness to hide from the rain of Keyblades, and once it was over he walked back out, frowning lightly "that guy... he is definately crafty and powerful..."  

[[XIII] Roxas]

Since, of those who had suffered the worst pounding from the keyblade bombardment, Roxas was the first one back on his feet, he was also the first to realize that Xehanort had fled from where they had been facing him in the realm of darkness.

"Damn it!" he cursed under his breath. "He got away!"
