Night saw the plan the two people before beginning to unfold and everyone seemed to be doing something to distract the heartless. suddenly he heard a warning to brace themselves, and an explosion of wind that seemed to be coming from everywhere at once and then finally concentrate into three fiery tornados around the one dude.
"Whoa that's powerful!" Night gasped, shielding his face from the blaze. Then the man began to run towards the heartless, going almost to fast, not giving his acquaintance from the cave enough time to bail of the beast. Dammit the guys totally forgotten about him hasn't he? Night though as he stepped forward. It was best not to try and interrupt the attack, as that could be, problematic, so Night opted to handle its himself. "In this form for a reason... Night muttered as he began to sprint along side the charging boy. He pulled ahead just in time to hook his acquaintance's clothing and toss him off the heartless. "Pardon me, sorry 'bout that!" Night grunted as he, leapt off the heartless himself hit the ground, rolling to his feet just before the boy impacted with the heartless. "Heh, nailed it" he smirked and braced for the big boom.

The shurikens left a few deep gashes in the Heartless' eyes, leaving it unaware of the explosion from Riley's chaos blast (lol Shadow) that forced it upward to stagger on its hind legs. This, of course, left Arin dangling from his twin swords, struggling to keep them imbedded on the Heartless' spine. "Woah!" When Arin heard the swirling winds and felt the intensity of the flaming tornadoes that were coming at the Heartless, he knew it was time to go.
Focusing hard on withdrawing his swords' blades, he realized he wouldn't have enough time to avoid the initial strike, and was panicking *Ohshitohshitohshitohshit!!!* Luckily, the one who had saved him earlier in the cave had decided to save him again, tackling him and knocking them both out of the blast radius. Arin pocketed his sword handles, and adjusted his body so that he was falling facedown and slightly angled head first. Curling his body tightly, he somersaulted until his body lost momentum, then pushed up when his feet touched ground.
While in midair, he did a 180º turn and aerial flip combo, landing again on his feet while crouched and balancing himself with one hand, the other dragging on the ground as a third peg to a tripod. Once he skidded to a stop, he pulled out the sword grips again and summoned forth their blades, watching as the Heartless fought with the fiery tornadoes. The flames continuously burned at the Heartless, but it thrashed about, swinging wildly with its afterimages to try and hit anything close enough to slice with its claws.
Fed up with the flames, the Heartless released many orbs of dark energy across the area, looking like black beach balls. One landed near Arin, which he instinctively dodge-rolled away from. He was smart to do so, as one by one the orbs started expanding at a rapid pace, like a miniature explosion/forcefield mix. Among the many shadow bombs launched out, one landed behind Seamus by chance, which would prove to be very damaging if he was too focused on manipulating his tornadoes. Another landed in front of Night and Riley (one each, wherever they are), and one landed next to Azelder's right hind paw. The Heartless then began it's high speed assault again, circling around the arena at its blinding speed and attacking anyone within its sights.
Arin had to keep watch of not just the explosive orbs of dark energy, but also the afterimages that barreled at him, and to make sure not to jump into the tornadoes if they were still active. At one point he had to cast his barrier spell to keep an explosion from hitting him, but that left him open for an attack by a green afterimage, shattering his shield and knocking him to his back, where the afterimage barreled overhead "It's getting desperate guys! I don't think it can take much more before it's down for good!"

The heartless was becoming noticeably more desperate in it attacks and movements. Which Night couldn't blame it, it was being assaulted with fiery tornadoes. Seemingly fed up with the attacks being thrown at it, the heartless suddenly released a bunch of orbs of darkness that appeared all around the battlefield, with some conveniently landing around the group of people. One appeared in front of Night, startling him, but quickly jumped out of the way as it began to rapidly expand and he could guess that touching it wouldn't be a fun idea.
Then the beast resumed with it previous strategy of assaulting the group with various shades of afterimages, which was beginning to annoy Night to no end. Dodging out of the way of blindingly fast attacks was getting old, not to mention the fact that the group was almost essentially powerless to do anything at the moment but wait for an opening. Waiting things out is not my favourite strategy, Night though as he quickly scanned the battlefield to see how he acquaintances were fairing, hoping that everyone else had noticed the orbs of shadows.
Everyone but the one guy who was controlling the tornados were noticing them, but the orb had appeared behind him and the guy wouldn't be able to react quick enough if he was to continue focusing on keeping the tornados manifested. "Hey, watch your back!" Night shouted to the guy, unable to make his way over to him in time to assist.

Alpha and Omega disappeared, leaving Battre alone, Battre grunted, and tried to stand up. His head spinning as he tried recover and attack the heartless again, “Purification in progress.“ he droned out as he walked to where the heartless was. He gathered enough strength to at least walk back and run to said heartless, using Run With Dementia again.

Azelder while still in his large form leaps away from the black sphere. He then exhales sharply, and focuses... reverting from his larger form take a significant amount of focus. A dull glow begins to surround him, and his large form begins to glow and break away. This reveals a small child who looks to be no more than 8, his silvery hair the exact same color as his fur when he is a wolf.
Fortunately the shrinking causes the heartless to miss him entirely with its attack toward him. He focuses his sight upon the one he sees to be real, and shouts at the top of his lungs. "Lightning I!" Calling a bolt of lightning to strike the spot where it was... hopefully striking and shocking it.
The sudden transformation might be somewhat distracting to the others however.

" If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen!" Seamus yelled as he landed on his feet. Seamus had starting panting after his attack connected. This battle was really starting to take a heavy toll on him. From the way the heartless acted he could tell he sent a massage with his attack. As if being almost drained of his energy wasn't bad enough the after images were back.
Before Seamus could do anything one of the guys told him to watch his back. Before he could do anything the explosion hit him. He was sent flying, with the tornadoes following him before landing face first on the ground. He was covered in cuts and was bleeding all over his hands. Why did he get fingerless armor gloves?
Unlike Seamus Riley was fortunate enough to get out of the orbs way. Also unlike Seamus he wasn't wearing any armor. Something he should buy sometime soon. Just how tough was this heartless. From the way it reacted Seamus' attack had gotten through to it.
Just then Riley heard the sound of someone hitting the ground. He turned to see it was Deamus. " SEAMUS!!!" he yelled. Despite his armor Seamus took a lot of damge from that attack. Riley didn't want to see his best friend die, no one else could go back and forth with jokes with him like Seamus could. Riley ran over to where Seamus was. " Seamus are you alright?!".
Seamus held on to Riley and slow got on his feet. He coughed up blood. He then slowly turned to Riley. " Looks like that last attack really burned him up eh Riley?". It hurt him to laugh but he had to do it.
Riley couldn't help but laugh. " Looks like you know how to bring the heat" he laughed.

Arin rolled and leapt out of the way of any afterimages that came flying at him. What he noticed was that they seemed to be a bit less accurate than before *It must be wearing down after all the abuse it's taken. If we can just wait this out, we might be able to bring it down for good. About time, I was starting to get tired of this thing's persistence…* The aura of Arin's swords began to enhance in strength, the light around his body distorting from the shining light and consuming darkness that the blades gave out. Arin looked at the group and saw that the two strange individuals were worse for wear, but the one who had saved him from burning alive was still in decent shape, and still in his armored form that he triggered earlier in the battle "He could be useful for taking this thing down."
With All of the orbs finally detonated and gone from the battlefield, Arin was free to sprint as quickly as he could to Night's location, having to baseball slide and doubleflight his way over a few of the afterimages that came barreling at him. He skidded to a stop next to Night, going back to back to scan for more oncoming attacks "I've got an plan, and you look like you're still in a position to help me out. Watch your back!" Arin pulled Night with him to the side as another afterimage came flying their way. "This thing's clearly on its last leg. The moment it stops circling the area, we move in for the kill before it can gain more momentum, sound good?"
The swirling ring of colors was slowly starting to reduce its speed, the Heartless' yellow eyes finally visible for the first time, but still too fast for conventional weapons unless a trained marksman was taking careful aim at the large beast, a feat not actually possible with afterimages flying around at people within its sights. Arin was watching the eyes carefully, his face still blocked from view by his hood *I'm finally going to get back at you for what your kind did to me…*
(To those who aren't directly being targeted in my post, this isn't to say that the Heartless hasn't forgotten you guys, you're more than welcome to use its afterimage charge attacks in your post to get creative, since there's three of them in total)

It was becoming even more prevalent that the heartless was nearing its end, as it ha begun to loss some of its speed and momentum. Suddenly Night was yanked out f the way of an afterimage that had charged him while he was thinking. He looked to see that the guy from the cave had saved him, and night started to thank him but stopped as the stranger began explaining a plan he had come up with.
Night wasn't sure how long he could continue to hold his form so he had to act fast if they where to do anything. The ring of the circling heartless began to slow and its eyes became faintly visible, which was good because soon they would be able to hit it. Night noticed its circling area was pretty consistent and wondered if he could begin to slow it down more or at least distract it again.
"Ok I'll help but I cant hold this form for much longer! But first I'll try this!" Night shouted as he took aim at the blurry ring of the circling heartless. ""Blaze Ring!" Night called as a ring of fire erupted around the path of the heartless. This wouldn't completely slow it, but would provide an opening, while causing some damage.

Arin watched as his accomplice conjured up a tall ring of flames in the path of the Heartless' attack. The giant beast passed through the ring several times, before slowing down and leaping into the center of the battlefield to avoid further exposure to the fiery attack. Seeing the monster poise to launch another flurry of those exploding orbs, Arin tapped Night's shoulder to get his attention. "It's getting ready to shoot out more of those orbs. Give me a clear path for a finishing blow and we can end this, let's go!"
Arin charged full speed at the beast, trusting the orb deflection to Night while he moved in for the kill. As Arin drew closer to the beast, he could feel his boost in power fading, he had to finish this quickly. Aiming his hand at the Heartless' head, he casted his fire spell, noticing a change in the distorted light and dark auras from his swords. Paying it no mind, he got beneath the Heartless' head just as the flame connected, crossing his arms in front of himself and leaping upward. "Payback time, demon!"
His arms swept upward, slicing the bottom section of the Heartless' neck. What he didn't expect was the X-shaped aura blade that launched upward from his sword strike, slicing all the way up the rest of the Heartless' neck.
The results were near instant. The giant beast laid motionless for the longest time, before collapsing. Arin barely had enough time to get out of the way of the falling corpse so he could watch it dissolve into a giant black mass. Panting, Arin dropped to one knee, the aura from his swords fading to nothing, and his unlocked power dormant again. As he looked at his swords again, curious how he had summoned forth such a power, he tried to summon it forth again, only to fail miserably. *…I guess a power like that has its drawbacks…it must need to charge up before I can use it again…Well that's an inconvenience…*
Satisfied with believing that the worst was over, Arin retracted the blades of his swords, slipping the handles into his sleeves, and suddenly feeling them vanish from his hands *Odd…The coat must have some odd features I still need to understand…* Reaching into his sleeve again, he tried grabbing for one sword, noticing it wasn't there. Only until he started focusing on drawing it, did he finally feel the sword handle return to his hand to pull from his sleeve *Useful…But I don't want to wear this thing for the rest of my life…*
"Then take the coat off"
There it was again, Arin was hearing things in his head for the second time today. Well, the voiceless words were useful before, maybe that was its intention from the start. Unzipping the front, Arin slid off first one sleeve, then the other, letting the coat fall from his body. As soon as the coat lost a physical connection to Arin, it dissolved into black particles, gathering until it formed a metal plate on the back of his -now- fingerless left glove, as well as a cord that coiled around his left arm all the way up into the sleeve of his jacket, and attaching itself to the large metal wristband that connected everything to the cloth sleeve holding it all together. As far as his clothes were concerned, they were all jet black while underneath the coat, finally regaining their original pigmentation as soon as the coat took its arm accessory form. Feeling a slight weight in his jacket pockets, he felt that his swords were tucked away safe for later use if he needed them.
"The coat will manifest when immense darkness lingers around you, and will dispose of itself when it is no longer needed. You may also summon it forth willingly, by grasping the coil around your arm and exposing it to a dark aura. This, you will have to master on your own."
The voice stopped talking again after that, looking around and spotting a child amidst the battlefield that he didn't recognize from before. He also noticed that the girl from before was busy tending to the man who summoned forth those fire twisters "…Well, this has certainly been an interesting day…" Arin started calmly making his way over to the young boy's location, wondering how he got here, and why.

"Glad he gone." Azelder squeaks out a broken sentence in his now very high voice before falling silent once more, despite his young age, he doesn't like to talk... or even remain in this form for terribly long, but he needs at least a short respite before changing into his larger form. He looks over at Arin sniffing the air. "You smell, strange." He says simply and bluntly, with no ill intention behind it, but it would probably offend anyway.
He stares down at his bare feet, playing with a pebble between his toes. "Any hurt?" He speaks up again. "Only help one." He says two things with less than a six second gap between them, which is rather astonishing for him, tossing the pebble up into the air with his big toe and catching it, only to stare at it with even wider than usual eyes running it between his fingers.

The tornadoes around Seamus disappeared as he cast curaga on himself. The battle was finally over. There wasn't any sign of the heartless regenerating. That was good, he hated bosses like that. He nodded to Riley before the two of them made their way to the other two. When they got there Seamus' dark form wore off. Right in front of everyone's eyes the dark aura around him vanished. His red eyes turned back to their normal jade green and his black and red hair turned blond again.
" That was quite a boss fight," Seamus said. " If it started healing itself i might have raged quit." he laughed. Despite having a dark orb explode on his back he enjoyed fighting the heartless. Mostly because Riley was there with him. " The name's Cray, Seamus Cray. This here is my friend O'Malley, Riley O'Malley. now don't let his looks fool you, he's a guy. He was cursed by the black witch to turn into a girl you see. That's why he has that mark. but if you guys are still interested in him for some reason i'm afraid he's taken. he has two wives you see."
Riley pouted. Seamus had ruined any chance he had at fooling these two. The good thing about this curse was being able to fool men. " Well there goes my fun," he muttered. "Well it's not like they're my type anyway." He looked at his long black nails, none of them broken. " That heartless was lucky not to break one of my nails, or else i would have gotten serious and really let him have it." His chaos form wore off, the chaos aura around him vanishing like Seamus' dark aura.
" You can get serious?" Seamus asked sarcastically.
" Only when you can" Riley said.
In the middle of the graveyard there was a very strange thing. There was a coffee stand that had fresh coffee being brewed and cups full on the table. The sign read "Ren's Coffee." Sitting at the stand was none other than Ren O'Malley himself. He had a megaphone and began to shout. " Coffee! Get your coffee here! Tired after fighting heartless and need a drink? Well look no further my friend! This coffee is 100% guarantee to refresh you just as if you cast a healing spell. Hurry it's getting cold!"
( Thought i forgot about this joke didn't you?)

**The final moments of the heartless**
Night moved in on the heartless as the stranger when in for the kill. Hoping to distract it long enough for a absolute killing blow to be made. He raised his hands in front of him and and swung them out in front of him, launching a blade of light horizontally towards the heartless, which struck it square in the chest and if Night had to guess, if the heartless ha lungs the wind was surely gone from them. The follow up was a close ranged burst of light he delivered to the heartless, blinding the already staggered beast. With the stranger coming in for the kill, Night leapt away. This fight was over.
**Present**
The two comical people from the cave made their way towards Night and the stranger. They introduced themselves as Seamus and Riley, and after listening to a rather eye opening explanation on how this Riley was actually a guy, despite his appearance left more questions with Night then it answered. Night laughed, which probably wasn't the politest thing to do but it was hilarious to him. "Heh thats a pretty girly thing to say though" Night said under his breath about Riley's comment on his nails. "Oh! Almost forgot to introduce myself! Night said deactivating his Hearts Light mode and returning to his normal attire "the name's Night, nice to meet you guys you were a huge help with the heartless!"he added.

Arin was stopped abruptly by the two comedians, shrugging off the silly introduction and merely bothered with a simple introduction "Arin Delas, nice to met you all." While he was approaching the odd child, he heard Night calling that large beast a Heartless "So that's what those demons are called? Kind of an odd name for such evil monsters, don't you think?"
He approached the boy curiously, looking him up and down. He recalled a giant wolf somewhere on the battlefield that suddenly vanished, but shrugged its absence off as the beast running away. But this odd kid not only had some wild child features about him, his hair, eyes, and the fact he had some sharp canines for a human made Arin believe that there's more to the kid's appearance than meets the eye.
Arin knelt down in front of the boy, looking him in his large, blue eyes "I don't think anyone's hurt, thanks for the concern, kid…You said you helped earlier, but I haven't seen you until just now…Was that big wolf I saw earlier actually you?"

The youngster begins scratching behind his ear while he thinks, not with his leg as he is prone to do in his wolf form though. "You, speak, lots..." He says, having issues following the multitude of voices around him, until Arin knelt down and began to speak to him.
"That... good." The child says giving everything a look over. "What ...wolf?" He asks sounding confused by the word, after all that's not what they're called in his home world. "Wolf, big? Wolf furry? Wolf strong?" He begins asking in his strange manner. "Me Lu...Lup..." He stops to think a bit more, scratching at his head again. "... Lupinral!" He remembers the proper word suddenly with a burst of vigor, as if it explained everything. He scans their faces, expectantly, but notices he's not getting the reaction that he was hoping for.
He picks up a broken Keyblade, and uses it to draw in the cracky dusty ground. At first it is unclear what the drawing depicts, though eventually it becomes more clear. One is a human, the other is a huge monstrous animal. "Lu...pin...ral..." He says slowly, enunciating each syllable.

Night walked over to Arin and the boy just in time to catch the beginning of the boy's explanation of how he was here. "Oh wow I've never heard of that species before!" Night exclaimed "so what's your name little guy? I didn't quite catch it." He was surprised that even if he did have that form, that the younger boy could fight as well as he did, it was impressive.
Night scanned once again around to check his surrounding. He didn't like how open and desolate this place was and how eerily calm it was know even after that battle they had had with the heartless. He couldn't feel any malicious auras present, but then again it seemed that things could change quickly here as this whole area seemed to radiate a small amount of darkness, which made the place even eerier. "Wow this place is really depressing, am I right? But seriously this place is just weird, its just so quite..." Night said beginning to pace. He realized that he still had his sword drawn, which he then quickly sheathed. "Hey um, Arin, were you familiar with that heartless that attacked us? It seemed like a rather personal fight if you asked me" Night asked quizzically. There had to be a reason it attacked him and here of all places for it to happen seemed rather convenient, but perhaps that was all it was; just convenient that all this happened out here in the middle of nowhere and in complete isolation. "Heh I'm probably just reading a little to much into it, maybe it attacked you because of your strong heart, that is what they are after, after all" Night concluded.

Arin closed his eyes and took a deep breath, recalling the first time he encountered the heartless that defeated him so easily in the past "You're actually not far off from the truth, Night…" He stood and pocketed his hands, cracking his neck idly as he tried to shake off the memories of darkness surrounding him, making him forget who he was "That 'heartless' was one that defeated me, after my world was swallowed up by darkness. Those smaller ones with the claws wore me down, but then I saw those glowing eyes and everything went dark…That's the last thing I remember before waking up in this weapon graveyard…"
Arin took a step towards where the giant heartless was last seen, before it dissolved into dark matter "My guess is I was a prey that escaped, and it chased after me when it found out I had escaped from wherever that dark place was…Just thinking about it makes me shudder…Not a speck of light anywhere, perpetual darkness, and thousands of creatures who used that darkness to hunt anything that wasn't like them…It was a living hell..."

" Sounds a lot like Weio," Riley chimed in after snapping out of his day dream. He had been to a world like that before. " It's a world far away from where my home world used to be." It was then that Seamus taped him on the shoulder. He pointed to where the coffee stand was. What was Ren doing with a coffee stand in a world like this? It was anyone's guess, Ren always did questionable things.
" Um i'd hate to be a pace breaker but we're got something to take care of," Seamus said. " Let's go Riley."
" But i don't even like coffee."
Seamus grabbed Riley and dragged him across the valley to the coffee stand. When they got to it there was no one to be found. " Now where did he go?" Seamus ringed the silver bell on the counter. " HEY! what does it take to get some service around here?" For a moment there was no sound. It seemed that Ren had left.
Just before they turned around to leave Ren jumped up from under the counter. " Sorry to keep you waiting i was making a fresh batch of coffee. As you can see we are very busy today," Ren snapped his fingers as a large amount of human-like heartless appeared in a single file line behind Riley and Seamus. Some tables and chairs appeared and some sat down with coffee. " Now how can i help you nice travelers?"
" Cut the act Ren," Seamus said. The jig is up. Just what are you doing with a coffee stand."
" Selling coffee."
" I see that. But what are you really up to?"
" Selling coffee at a reasonable price."
" Don't play games with me Ren! What evil plan are you up to?!"
" Ok you got me. Selling coffee at an outrageously low price!"

Night listened to Arin's story, surprised of all that he went through before all of this. Night thought back to his own encounter with a monster heartless earlier on in his life. "Wow, that's horrible, your pretty lucky to even be alive it sounds!" Night replied, taking a seat on the cold dusty ground of the wasteland and scanning around once more.
"I don't know if you have already figured this out or not, but Heartless tend to travel in packs of some sorts, so not to be the downer because we may have very well defeated them all but there could be more lurking around..." Night sighed as he drew his Blade of Darkness and stabbed it into the ground at his feet. "I may not look it, but I have quite a bit of experience with the Heartless." Night's blade emitted dull waves of darkness, which seemed to be coming from just the area in general with no real threatening auras present at the moment. But Heartless did have a way with appearing unexpectedly and with a group of people this strong, Night doubted that they would stay away for long.
"Also, I'm pretty sure those two are delusional" Night added, glancing over at the two other people in group, smirking.

"Probably…" Arin got to his feet, looking around at the desolate wasteland of the keyblade graveyard, wondering just how he wound up here, and how he would make it out of this otherwise dead world "So…any idea how to get out of this place? It doesn't seem like there's anyone living here, this place reminds me more of stories my grandparents told me when I was a child, so I doubt it's inhabited by anyone but us." A sudden cold chill ran down his spine as he felt something nearby, lurking in the darkness of the mountain close by "…And whatever does live here, I doubt would be friendly towards outsiders…"

( Can you guys tell me if i nailed Ren's personality yet?)
Seamus was getting annoyed. He had a score to settle with Ren and he seem to care about his little coffee stand more than an old friend. Ren was even worse than Riley and him put together when it came to bad puns. " Ren so help me!" he yelled at him." If you don't want to tell us this time fine. Just know we'll stop you this time."
Ren slowly took a sip of his coffee as Seamus spoke. He laughed at what he said. " Stop me this time?! Don't make me laugh! You couldn't stop me on your home world, and you knew all about my plan that time. He started the coffee maker. " I guess it has been two years since then. So it would make sense for you two to be stronger by now. But Seamus...have you learned to control your darkness yet? Is it still true you slowly lose control when you use it? I'd hate for history to repeat itself. He poured himself a fresh cup of coffee and started stirring. " Let's just say you can control it now. That won't change what happened two years ago. Do you think that we haven't also gotten stronger? I've had my darkness long before you did. I've accepted it, allowed it to consume me. You don't have the heart i do, you would never allow yourself to give in fully.You'll never learn to control it like that. Tell me Seamus... how does it feel to live in fear. Fearing the day your darkness finally gets the better of you. Fearing that The path you chose will only end in your own death by the very same darkness you've refused to accept!
Ren sat up and smiled at Seamus. He slowly turned to Riley, keeping his smile. " And what about you brother? It looks like that dreadful curse is still with you. Still haven't found that cure have we? That means you still have your mood swings. Tell me brother... how does it feel to hurt your own wives? Your friends? Yourself? When's the last time you've seen them? I think they're happy. Happy that you're not there. Not there to hurt them anymore. Oh sure they say they still love you. Love you no matter how much you change. But deep down i know they fear you. Fear that you'll kill them one day when your mark starts glowing red. How does it feel not knowing what you will feel next? How does it feel knowing one day you might kill your wives and all you can do is watch yourself commit the act?"
Riley's heart almost stopped. Ren had got him right where it hurts. The one thing no matter how hard he tried he couldn't control. Riley knew he might kill his wives one day because of his curse. That's why he hasn't gone looking for them yet. He didn't want to hurt them again. There was no telling when his mark would glow red again. He didn't want to see them until he found a cure. He smacked Ren's cup out of his hand. " Listen hear Ren. I will find a cure one day soon. And when that day comes i will put what happened behind me. You may think you know my wives but you don't! They love me and i love them. They are my power and i'm theirs
Ren watched his coffee fall. He close his eyes and took a deep breath. He then stood up and looked at Riley. " I guess i've hit a nerve there. Allow me to make up for it by telling you what i'm really up to. For a while i've been brewing the next phase of my plan. i've already destroyed plenty of worlds to make myself known. Now i need to find a new world. A world that i will spare. A world that will be the start of my empire. From there the new universal order shall start. Then i will spread to all worlds unifying them all. But I've been wondering about you two. Just how much stronger have you gotten. It would be to risky to test you myself. Nore and Sasuke are too busy, but i know someone who can."
The coffee stand disappeared. The heartless turned into a stream of darkness and returned to Ren. He slowly pulled out the yellow stone from his pocket. he tossed it up into the air. Dark clouds covered the sky. A huge bolt of lighting came down and hit the stone. There was a blinding flash of yellow light. When the light went away it relieved a huge dragon. It was standing on its hind legs at about 20 stories high. It's scales were yellow with red markings on them. It's wings were a pale blue blue and giving off lightning. It's claws and eyes were yellow. It has holding a giant spear in one hand. Ren was standing on it's shoulder. " You both remember Vermillion don''t you?" Vermillion let out a huge roar that filled the whole valley.
