Focused as she was to strike Kosuke down, Kira was caught off-guard by Henoke's succesion of hits. She stagered back as he tried making her trip, but was caught directly in the whirlwind of gold, losing hold of her Keyblade for good this time. Before she had time to recover, Kosuke imbued his blade with fire, and striked swiftly. Kira fell to her back, but before she could stand up, Kosuke drew his sword close to her neck.
"Now are you giving up?" he asked, firm. "..." Kira groaned, "You... You little..." "I won't repeat myself. So either you answer now, or I'm ending this before it starts." "...Heh. You wish this was over... This is just the beggining..."
Kira stood in a jump with the help of her hands, forcing Kosuke back. But as soon as he regained balance, Kira had dissapeared in a flash of light. Seeing she had left with no trace, Kosuke spat out, sheathing his blade.
"Dammit... She got away..." he said, bitterly.

His attacks had succeeded in pushing Kira back, allowing Kosuke to deliver a punishing blow with his flaming sword. As the swordsman placed the blade to the woman's neck, Henoke readied himself, doubting that the woman was going to give up easily. He winced slightly, the golden aura around him crackling with power as it demanded a hefty toll from his body. Stepping closer to the two, Henoke was quick to move as he heard Kira's answer: "...Heh. You wish this was over...this is just the beginning..." Rushing towards the woman with his Keyblade lifted and ready to attack, the raging wielder was blinded for a moment. Kira had leapt up into the air, disappearing in a brilliant flash of light.
Blinking and gathering his senses, Henoke heard Kosuke before he saw him. "Dammit...she got away..." Shaking his head a bit, the teen lifted a hand to his brow, closing his eyes and focusing for a moment. The violent shade of red disappeared from his face as he calmed himself down, the gold-brown iris' returning to his eyes as he blinked a few times. The golden energy around Henoke began to crackle and disappear as he returned to himself. His body was exhausted, the strain he had put on it overwhelming for a moment, causing the teen to lurch forward. Propping himself up using his large Keyblade, Henoke looked over at the swordsman and the familiar.
"That lady was nuts, for real." Shaking his head a bit, Henoke rubbed the back of his neck as he cracked it, sighing in relief. "It sounded like she knew you, Kosuke." His gold-brown eyes fell on his new friend, concern clear on his face as he limped closer to the swordsman. "That's a dangerous enemy to forget about...I wonder where she escaped to?" He looked around the area, littered with craters and signs of battle. With a heavy sigh, the key bearer heaved a bit as he lurched forward again, fighting to keep himself balanced as he stood up straight, swaying a bit.
He didn't see any sign of Kira anywhere. Gritting his teeth and clenching his free hand into a fist at his side, Henoke looked down at the ground beneath him with a look of anger. "Sorry, Kosuke. She got away." He looked back up at his friend, holding his fist up near his chest as he nodded in determination. "But we won't let her hurt your friend!" He wasn't sure how he could help the swordsman, but he would any way he could in terms of tracking down, fighting or defending his friend from this woman named 'Kira'. There was still a burning fire in his heart as he looked up towards the open night sky, furrowing his brow. You've got a new enemy, Kira. Look out.
Henoke wasn't sure where the woman had escaped to, but if he managed to find her again, he wouldn't let her escape a second time.

Kosuke raised his view, looking at Henoke as he tried cheering him up. "But we won't let her hurt your friend!. The phrase stood with Kosuke, who found himself smiling a bit, thankful for those words. Despite his age, Henoke seemed to know better.
"...Thanks" Kosuke said. "But for real... Who was she?" Necro asked, sighing, "And she did seem to know us... Maybe we do know her?" "I don't care if I know her or not. She's after Tori, and that makes her an enemy." "I guess... We should be careful, then." "...Hey, Necro?" "Hmm?" "What she said about the Shore... Was it true?" "W-Well..." "Do you know?" "...No, sorry" the dragon shook his head, "I wish I did, but I'm just as lost as you, Kosuke..." "...Then let's keep looking. We still have things to get dealt with" Kosuke nodded, and looked at Henoke, "Let's go back to the park. We could start looking there for the Keyhole. I don't recall having a good look around there, anyways."

Henoke smiled as his friend thanked him, happy to have helped in any way. Resting his hands behind his head, the teen looked up towards the sky as Necro and Kosuke talked of 'The Shore' again. Is that where they're from? Raising an eyebrow and tilting his head a bit, he blinked at the two as Kosuke mentioned returning to the park to find the 'keyhole'. He started for a moment, taking a step forward as his hands flew to his sides in surprise. "Oh! That's right!" He had completely forgotten! With all that had been going on recently, Henoke had almost forgot the whole point of the Keyblade bringing him to this world. Well, at least what he thought had been the point.
For a moment the teen looked at the two in front of him, wondering if perhaps the Keyblade would ever bring him to worlds for other reasons. Maybe I could just help out wherever, really. Truthfully, he didn't mind that he never really knew where he was going, he was always needed wherever it sent him. He didn't care if it was related to keyholes or simply helping out others like Kosuke or Necro. For a moment, the teen wondered if the Keyblade would ever bring him to where his friends were, if they needed him. I hope so. He clenched his fist for a moment, a determined look flashing in his eyes before he shook off the feeling. Phew, that battle musta made me tense...
Relaxing a little, the teen felt the toll of the fight. His muscles and body ached something fierce, though luckily he hadn't taken much damage otherwise. He had simply pushed his limits, his body aching because of it. Swaying a little bit, Henoke shook his head as he forced himself to focus. There was still work to be done. "Yeah, let's go check out the park!" Henoke had a broad grin as he looked at his two friends, excited to still be able to explore with them. "I wonder what Kira was doing here, though..." The thought trailed off into the night as Henoke turned to exit the area they were in and head back down to the park.
Taking a step forward, the teen staggered for a moment before regaining himself. Gritting his teeth a bit, Henoke pushed himself forward as he regained his footing and pace. He was determined to help this world, and aid Kosuke and Necro for as long as he could. He was glad that he had been here for this fight, as the odd key bearer had been powerful indeed. Glancing over his shoulder at Kosuke, Henoke wondered what past the swordsman had forgotten, as well as other powerful enemies that may have it out for him. I'm glad it brought me here... His heart swelled with joy as his pace quickened, life breathing back into him as he gathered his second wind.
Maybe the Keyblade did guide him to friends. To new ones and old.

Kosuke shook his head, as Henoke asked the reason why Kira was there. If he was going to be honest, even he didn't know. Was she there just to bother them? It didn't seem too likely... She was definitely looking for something, but was forced to leave because of Kosuke and Henoke.
"I'd like to know that, too..." Kosuke confessed, "It definitely didn't look like she was here just to bother us." "She definitely had an ulterior motive..." Necro agreed, "But what could it have been?" "Hmm..."
Kosuke crossed his arms, thinking a bit. What could Kira have been up to? The question did bother him a lot, and he really couldn't get a solid answer. In a bit, he gave up trying to think, and focused on their next location. The attraction park was large, and the pair had barely seen it. In a sense, Kosuke could understand Henoke's excitement. That's when he noticed that the Keyblade Wielder staggered a bit.
"H-Hey, you okay?" he asked him, uneasy, and, without recieving answer, wrapped one of his arms behind his head, "Guess you need someone to carry ya for a bit" he said, chuckling. "I guess that, even though we won, we still got to recover" Necro said, teasing, "Well, hopefully there's a place to take a break at the park." "Mind looking around?" "On it!"
Necro left the pair on their own as he went to look for a place where they could stay at, maybe a staff room or something. In the meantime, Kosuke helped Henoke back to the park.
"Say... You don't wanna close the Keyhole, do ya?" he asked, "At least... Urgh, that came out wrong. What I meant was... You don't know how to control your travels, right? And, whenever you close the Keyhole, you just... End up somewhere else, without you wanting to. So..."

Feeling his weight lift as Kosuke offered support, Henoke laughed a bit while rubbing his nose a bit sheepishly. "Y-yeah...I mighta overdid it..." As Necro raced onward to scope out a good spot for the trio to rest, the two continued toward the park, Henoke leaning against the swordsman for support. "Say...You don't wanna close the keyhole, do ya?" The question caught the wielder by surprise, causing him to jerk a bit as he looked over at his friend. "Urgh, that came out wrong. What I meant was...You don't know how to control your travels, right?" It was true, Henoke had no control where the Keyblade sent him off to. Originally, Chirithy had always guided him safely to other worlds and returned him safely home. "Whenever you close the keyhole, you just...end up somewhere else, without you wanting to. So..."
Henoke smiled a bit, shaking his head as the two continued down the path towards the park. For a moment, his golden brown eyes lingered on the lit up carnival, with large rides decorated in different colored lights, booths and carousels lining many of the disarrayed paths. "It's not that I mind being sent somewhere else..." For a moment the teen furrowed his brow, looking down towards the ground. He took comfort in the black bandana that brushed against his chin, burrowing his face in the scent for a moment. "It does make it hard to find people, though..." There was a slightly sad tone in the wielder's voice, though only for a moment before he continued.
"Truthfully, I'm happy to help in any way I can." Looking up towards the night sky, Henoke had a smile on his face as he thought of all the other worlds out there waiting for him. "I'm excited to see more places! It's just hard, since I don't want to lose touch with people." He found himself omitting the truth out loud, without really having given it much thought up until that moment. For a second it surprised him, he had forgotten how easy it was to talk when you were around friends. How long had he been away from others in that castle...? Laughing a bit at his own embarrassment, the teen hoped his face wasn't too red.
"I'll get the hang of it, eventually~" There was a confidence in his heart. He knew that until he was able to gain control over the power of waking, the Keyblade would guide him to new friends, and maybe even old ones.

"Well, if you say so..." Kosuke laughed, "I won't stop you." "He~y!"
Kosuke looked forward, seeing Necro waving at them, and then going towards them. Kosuke didn't let go of Henoke one second as Necro got almost nose to nose with him, eager as he'd found a place to stay and rest a bit.
He led them towards there, which was just a small resting place. It was still all messy, with paint all over, trash all around... It looked as if no one took care of the place whatsoever. At the very least, though, it wasn't too messy.
"Really makes one wonder who visits this place..." Kosuke mentioned aloud, "And I'm more than sure that kids just visit this place... For whatever reason." "Well, it does look like small kids walk around alone here... Just a guess, though" Necro replied, "Unless adults are just as messy, which... Well, in that case...!" "Knock it off, will ya?" Kosuke smirked. He then looked at Henoke, letting him down on a couch on the floor, "So? What now? As far as I'm aware, we're waitin' on you to get your bearings together." "And you won't?" Necro asked Kosuke. "Nothing really hurts, y'know... I didn't do reckless stuff..." "Yes, you did."

Henoke couldn't help but laugh as he was placed down on the couch, wincing a bit as Kosuke assisted him down into it. Necro and Kosuke always had a banter that the key bearer enjoyed, watching them took his mind off of the throbbing pain in his muscles. Sighing in relief as he melted into the couch, Henoke opened his eyes and gazed up at the musty ceiling above them. The resting spot was kind of littered and messed up, but the teen was thankful for the chance to relax. "So? What now?" The question cut through the quiet as Kosuke pondered allowed. "As far as I'm aware, we're waiting' on you to get your bearings together." The Keyblade wielder smiled sheepishly as he rubbed his nose with a finger, looking away from the swordsman as Necro piped in. "Y-yeah...sorry 'bout all that."
Truthfully, he hadn't meant to go all out like that against Kira. It just kind of happened, due to how angry he had gotten. Sometimes, when Henoke got angry, his brain just didn't listen to his body when it was telling it that it was at its limit. His rage allowed his body to keep pushing past its limit, accessing immense strength because of it. Unfortunately, the toll kept him rather vulnerable after, and Henoke was thankful to have friends with him. "Hm...well, you had mentioned going back to the park, yeah?" The teen had relaxed his head on the couch back, his vibrant spiky orange hair bright in the dark messy room. Looking up at the ceiling, Henoke lifted a finger as he wondered aloud.
"So...we'll go explore more of the park...and hopefully find out what the deal with this world is." It sounded kinda lame, to be honest. Henoke frowned a bit as he furrowed his brow, closing his eyes in thought. Drumming his fingers against his knees, bouncing a leg up in down in thought, the wielder wished for once things seemed obvious. Sighing a bit in frustration after a moment of concentration, Henoke sat up and slumped over a bit, resting his arms on his knees as he opened his eyes to look over at Kosuke. "To be honest though, I don't know what to expect. I'm not really sure what's going on with this world." The Keyblade had brought him here for a reason, but he hadn't come across any keyholes yet. If there's not a keyhole...why would it bring me here?
The thought nagged at him as he ran a hand through his hair, scratching the back of his head. "None of this makes sense..."

Kosuke smiled uneasily, seeing that, just like him, Henoke couldn't make head or tails about their sittuation. It was a strange feeling, all things considered. He sat down, thinking, and trying to see if there was any small detail that could make sense... But there really wasn't. They hadn't come across anyone from that world, and the only person they even managed to encounter turned out to be an enemy. Not only that, but the reason why Kosuke was there still hadn't met its goal.
Both him and Henoke were lost when it came to their goals. That was an irrefutable fact.
"Same here" he agreed, "Everything so far has been pretty off... But we have nothing to do about it." "Y'know..." Necro mentioned aloud, "All things considered, with that Illusion and Kira making their debut... Maybe I can guess why we haven't seen anyone?" "Oh... You mean, because we're inside of an Illusion?" "Or them. Could be either way." "Man... Now I really wish I'd done something back when that Spirit attacked us..." "Huh? Why's that?" "It wasn't a Keyhole, right? That much, we established after Henoke tried to close it" Kosuke said, rather urgently, "We didn't have much time to think before, but now that we do... I think that was a Rift." "Oh..." Necro sighed, "Yeah... Going back now is basically for nothing. We found Kira there, and I'm pretty sure that Spirit's still there. It couldn't have left forever." "So... We have one other option."
Kosuke looked at the Keyblade Wielder with a determined expression. He looked keen on something, and he was more than sure about its success. They couldn't break the Rift... But they could break the Illusion.
"Kosuke?" Necro asked, confused. "I have an idea" Kosuke nodded, "Breaking the Rift is one way to dispel the Illusion. But defeating the Spirit sustaining it also creates an opening. If we can get one to appear, then we can go out to the real attraction park." "I... Guess it makes sense...?" "..." Kosuke stood up, and looked at Henoke again, "I'll explain it quick, alright? And no repeats" he stated, "You already saw an Illusion, one that took your form based on your memories. Well, those aren't the only Illusions that exist. There's two different types of Illusions: the ones that take people's memories to take form, and... The ones that take the world's memory. That creates something like a paralel dimention: we are, in a sense, in the real world, but we're completely disconnected from whatever happens in reality. We're invisible to whoever lives here, so to speak." "So..." Necro perked up, getting the hang of things. "Henoke... This is probably the last strange thing we'll be doing: we gotta break the Illusion and get out of here. After that... We'll be on the right track to find the Keyhole. That, I'm sure of. So" he held his hand towards him, "What do ya say? Wanna help me find the Spirit responsable for the Illusion?" he asked, smirking with some playfulness.

Henoke sat on the couch, crossing his arms and nodding as he listened to Kosuke and Necro's explanation. So...this has to do with more Illusions, eh? Here he thought the major threat to other worlds was the Heartless, but there were other threats he had never even heard of as well. Perhaps this was why the Keyblade had brought him here? The swordsman explained how there were two types of spirits, ones that siphoned people's memories to craft their form while others siphoned a worlds memories. The Keyblade wielder sat up in surprise as Kosuke mentioned this, resting his hands on his knees as he leaned forward, looking at the swordsman earnestly.
"Woah, I didn't even know world's had memories!" He supposed it shouldn't be too surprising, considering the facts worlds had Hearts, and he hadn't even known about that until he trained with his master and Chirithy on his home world after being chosen by a Keyblade. "Henoke, this is probably the last strange thing we'll be doing: we gotta break the Illusion and get out of here. After that...we'll be on the right track to find the Keyhole. That, I'm sure of." Henoke nodded and looked up at his friend, determination in his eyes as he grinned broadly. If the trio really were on an Illusion based on the real world, they had to return to it to aid it. For all the key bearer knew, the real world could be in trouble. They had to hurry.
Kosuke offered a hand out: "What do ya say? Wanna help me find the Spirit responsible for the Illusion?" Henoke laughed as he grabbed Kosuke's hand, hoisting himself up and nodding at his friend, a fire burning in him. He had rested long enough. There was enthusiasm in his voice as he beamed at the two new friends he had made.
"Of course! Let's go!"

Kosuke nodded, holding onto Henoke's hand tightly. Necro seemed happy with the deal, and, without any further things to wait for, they headed out of the small break room, towards the park.
It was just as peaceful as they'd left it, but something did feel amiss. It didn't take long for Necro to spot a figure moving in the distance, and chased after it. Kosuke wasn't late in following, hoping for Kosuke to do the same.
"That's a Spirit!" Necro shouted, dashing after it. "Alright! That's a lead!" Kosuke cheered. He quickly stopped in his track however, as more Spirits decided to crawl up, "Guh... Guess they wouldn't let us get out way, huh...?" "I'll follow after that one! You guys make your way there!" "No need to tell me twice..."
Kosuke held his sword tightly, ready for another onslaught. He glanced at Henoke, a bit worried, but, knowing the Keyblade Wielder could hold his ground, and was probably now in better judgement, Kosuke didn't fear for him.
If things did get rought, however, then he'd urge the teen to leave and follow after Necro.
"These ones definitely have a weak point... That'll make it easier..." he smirked.
[Battle! 5 Spirits total]

Henoke was in high spirits as the trio left the small shack, entering back into the dark night. Looking up at the starry sky, the key bearer had a grin on his face as he breathed in the fresh air. His body felt better, his spirits were high and his friends were okay. Everything was working out fine. As they began to walk, the teen wondered what other journeys Kosuke and Necro had been on together, wondering how he could help in Kosuke getting some of his memories while he was on this world. Suddenly, Kosuke and Necro were running, Henoke quickly following with a surprised shout. "That's a Spirit!" Necro's voice rang through the night as the three ran.
"Alright! That's a lead!" Henoke joined in Kosuke's cheer, quickly turning into a shout as he almost collided with the swordsman. Three other Spirits emerged, surrounding them. "I'll follow that one! You guys make your way there!" Necro was gone in a flash, the phantom faster than Henoke though as he raced off. Nodding as Kosuke readied himself, Henoke summoned his large Keyblade with a burst of light. The weight felt good in his hands as he clutched the weapon with both hands, readying himself in a battle stance as he and Kosuke squared off against the Spirits.
"These ones definitely have a weak point... that'll make it easier..." Kosuke's voice caused Henoke to jolt as he recalled their conversation from before. "Oh yeah! Don't Spirits have an emblem that's vulnerable?" He hoped he was remembering correctly, a lot of stuff had happened since the explanation. Keeping the 'Steel Heart' poised in front of him, Henoke took a moment to try and find the Emblems on the spirits, trying to make sense of their form and shape before attacking.
He kept a guard up in case they were faster than he thought.

"You got it!" Kosuke said, nodding, "So let's take 'em out quick and chase after the main one!"
One of the Spirits had its Emblem clearly visible in its chest. Other 2 had it by their forehead, one had it on its back, and the last one had it in one of the wings they had. The one with its Emblem in the chest looked like a cat with two tails, and began chanting spells at them from a distance. The ones with the Emblem on their foreheads was a black figure with a bellflower for a head, supporting the other Spirits, and the other was a squirrel like, with a large tail, dashing back and forth at them. The one with the Emblem on its back was a horse-like Spirit engulfed in flames, and the Spirit with the Emblem on its wing was a large bird with a distinctive black feather on its forehead. All of the Spirits, with their focus onto Kosuke and Henoke, had their different roles in the battle.
"Alright... I'm not letting any of you past this one..." Kosuke smirked, ready for battle.
He tackled the squirrel-like Spirit, clashing against its tackle with his sword. The horse-like Spirit enveloped itself in a flame, tackling against Henoke, while the bird Spirit remained back, and the bellflower and cat chanted spells to either support the other Spirits, or to attack at a distance.

Henoke took in the enemies before him, noting where the large emblem's resided on each individual spirit. The grip he had on his Keyblade was firm, the weapon poised and ready as he heard Kosuke's voice near him. "Alright...I'm not letting any of you past this one..." Suddenly the swordsman flourished towards the large squirrel like spirit, clashing with it in heated battle. Excited and ready, Henoke grinned broadly as the large horse spirit rushed towards him, a surging force of fire. As the horse rushed him, Henoke used his High Jump ability to leap above the massive spirit. Taking aim of the large Emblem on the horse spirit's back while in the air, the key bearer heaved his massive weapon, hurling it directly at the large creature with his Strike Raid ability. He hoped his aim struck true.
Whether or not the hit landed, the Keyblade would arc through the air back towards its wielder as though a boomerang. Catching the weapon just as he landed on the ground behind the large spirit, the teen grinned as he turned his gaze to the spell caster spirits. The cat and flower... Those were his first targets. If they were boosting their comrades battle ability, the fight would only be worse. Ignoring the horse from this point on, Henoke turned towards his new targets. Taking aim with the tip of his Keyblade, Henoke hoisted the weapon to point it directly at the bellflower spirit's emblem on its forehead. A rush of heat blasted forth from the Keyblade as a large fireball hurled through the air, honing in on the Bellflower. "Firaga!"
He hoped the elemental advantage helped, as well as his aim for the spirit's emblem. His gold brown eyes fell on the cat as the teen rushed towards the spirit with his Sliding Dash ability. The two-tailed spirit had the most obvious emblem, directly in the center of the chest. Hoisting his weapon in a heavy two-handed thrust, Henoke stabbed for the cat's emblem as he closed the distance, rushing through the battlefield as an orange blur.

The horse-like Spirit shrieked, and, fuming, stood up in its two legs before charging once more at Henoke. The hit hadn't missed, but it only made the Spirit angrier.
As for the bellflower Spirit, the Firaga spell hit dead center, and tumbled back a couple times before dissapearing. The cat, seeing Henoke slide towards him, jumped a bit too late, recieving some damage although not much. Taking advantage of the horse Spirit's fury, the cat aimed its own Fira spell back at Henoke.
Kosuke parried the squirrel Spirit, and slashed back straight at its forehead, cleanly. But before the hit even connected, the bird Spirit moved so fast to block the attack, tossing Kosuke back. He hadn't met that type of Spirit before...
"Oh, so you're that kind of Spirit...?" he muttered to himself, readying a spell, "Wind!"
Kosuke uppercuted the air, his hand imbued with a current of wind that then turned into a tornado, drawing the squirrel and bird towards it before exploding and tossing them aside. Focusing now on the bird, Kosuke moved swiftly past it, drawing his sword in the middle of the dash, and the bird Spirit was no longer there. It dissapeared, defeated, as it shattered as soon as its Emblem was struck.
"That leaves just the Wildflame and the Haze Hare... Huh?"
As if speaking to himself, Kosuke noticed that he'd said actual races, not calling them by "Spirits", but as individual species. He shook his head, focusing on battle first and foremost. Then later he could give himself a proper review.

Henoke gritted his teeth in frustration as his stab mostly missed the Cat spirit. Turning on his hell, the teen hoisted his Keyblade up into a guard just in time for the oncoming Fira spell that cat had casted. "Copy Cat!" The spell was strong, pushing Henoke back a bit as he grunted in effort, but he kept his footing. Wincing from the heat, the key bearer was thankful that his weapon took the brunt of the spell, leaving him mostly unscathed. Luckily, it seemed his fire spell from earlier had worked on getting rid of the flower. The ground trembled slightly beneath his feet, causing his gold brown eyes to widen as he turned to see the large horse spirit rushing towards him a second time. "Geez, you just don't quit!"
Grinning a bit, the teen rolled to the side in order to avoid the horse's stampede, his main focus remaining on the cat. If they're both gonna attack...! Raising his large steel grey Keyblade into the air above him, shouting his spell as lightning bolts rained down upon the spirits. "Thundara!" After releasing his spell, Henoke rushed towards the Cat spirit a second time. Running as fast as he could, the teen closed the distance as he heaved his large weapon with both hands. Slashing in an 'X' motion over the Spirit Emblem on its chest, Henoke poured his strength into the melee attack. His hope was that since the Cat seemed to be a caster, it would be weaker to physical attacks.
Henoke kept an eye on the raging Horse as he assaulted the Cat. He couldn't afford to get too careless. The teen looked over to where he heard Kosuke fighting. It seemed his friend had taken care of the squirrel and the bird already. Kosuke is strong! Pride swelled in his chest as he averted his attention back to his own fight. There was a new determination in his eyes as he gripped his weapon tightly. I'll show you I'm strong too, Kosuke! Suddenly the teen was rushing forward, his Keyblade beginning to crackle and glow with a radiant energy as he used his High Jump ability to leap off the ground. Leaping towards the horse spirit, Henoke readied his now golden glowing weapon above his head as he slashed down in a powerful two handed swing. His aim was for the Horse's spirit emblem, hoping this more powerful attack would finish the job. "Blitz!" The glowing Keyblade crackled and sparked with energy as it became a streak of gold in a powerful slash.

Both Spirits were stunned by the electric bolts pouring down around Henoke, and the cat Spirit recieved the attack dead center, shattering much like the bird and the bellflower one. The horse remained stunned, trying to shake off the electricity of it to charge at Henoke once more.
The Haze Hare, seeing itself defenseless, tried to run away, but Kosuke cut its path of escape. He drew his sword, but the Hare dodged out of the way with a jump and turned back towards the horse Spirit in search for protection.
"Ah... Hey!" Kosuke shouted, frowning, "You're not getting away that easily!"
Kosuke's blade emanated a red aura, and he was quick to strike at the Haze Hare taking refuge behind the stunned Wildflame. He aimed to strike, but couldn't, as the Hare was quick to move around.
"Urgh... Stand still, dammit!"

"Damn, you're tough!" Henoke was impressed with the Horse Spirit, as not many enemies took a head-on Blitz attack and still stood. Grinning a bit, Henoke gripped his weapon in both hands in front of him tightly. It's strong! Sweat broke across the teen's forehead, he had exerted himself quite a bit in this battle already. The sheer numbers of Spirits had left them at a disadvantage. Refusing to let it get to him, Henoke shook the exhaustion off as he readied himself once more. "Ah...Hey! You're not getting away that easily!" The hare spirit was bolting away from Kosuke, sheltering itself behind the large horse spirit.
Dodging the swordsman's attacks, the hare was a blur across the battlefield as it relied on its speed to stay alive. Henoke tsked his tongue a bit. If he had only waited to cast his thunder spell, he could have caught the fast spirit in the massive area effect. "Urgh...stand still, dammit!" It seemed Kosuke was growing irritated, chasing after the hare and attempting to hit it. The teen couldn't help but grin a bit, holding back a laugh at the sight. Even battling with friends was more fun!
In light spirits, the key bearer decided to try and dispose of the horse spirit finally, so that the hare couldn't keep using it as cover against Kosuke. Heaving the large Keyblade onto his shoulder, Henoke rushed forward towards the large horse spirit. Sliding on the ground beneath the large spirit, Henoke sliced at the beast's legs as he emerged on the other side behind it. Leaping up into the air, the teen attempted to strike the large emblem that resided on the spirit's back. He heaved his weapon in a powerful strike as he closed the distance through the air, hoping to be rid of the spirit once and for all.

Shocked by the sudden ally joining the fight by taking refuge around it, the horse stood dead in its tracks, not noticing Henoke's movement. It was too late for it to recover as he hit its legs, causing it to trip down, and then recieved the blow dead center in its Emblem, shattering into pieces of light and shadow. The Haze Hare was now left with no allies to aid it, but even then it proved difficult to kill. It kept running around at a high speed, avoiding any attacks Kosuke tried to land. With that irritation in the way, he couldn't help but groan bitterly.
"For the love of..." Kosuke was red in anger, seeing that, despite his best efforts, the hare was still running rampant, "Oi, Henoke, do you have any magic you can use to trap it?! This thing's really ticking me off!"
The Haze Hare saw an opportunity to attack the pair, and swiftly moved to tackle Kosuke first, and Henoke afterwards. The hare landed the hit on Kosuke barely, as he was swift to raise his sword and block it, but continued its attack towards Henoke.

Henoke was released as the large spirit shattered, leaving behind only the single hare spirit for the duo to deal with. As Kosuke attempted to get the hare, the spirit still proved a bit too swift, dodging the melee attacks with ease. "Oi, Henoke, do you have any magic you can use to trap it?! This things's really ticking me off!" The key bearer had to stifle a laugh as he watched his friend attempt to chase the spirit around, failing to land a direct hit. It wasn't mean spirited, simply Henoke being amused at the sight. Nodding a bit, the wielder readied himself as he hoisted his large Keyblade before him, aiming in the general direction of the hare spirit.
Just then, the spirit launched itself in a tackle attack towards the two. It knocked Kosuke out of the way, though it didn't seem to hurt him too much, as the swordsman had gotten a block up in time. "It's now or never!" As the hare hurtled through the air directly towards him, Henoke focused his inner strength as he leaped backwards, aiming the Keyblade tip at the spirit. A crackling orange energy began to erupt forth from the tip of the weapon, forming a large orange heart. The massive heart erupted as the hare hurled towards Henoke, bursting forth in an explosion of multiple crackling orange hearts that flew through the air, honing in to pummel the spirit.
The teen's weapon ceased to spark once the barrage was complete, though he readied it in a defensive position as he took a battle stance. Though his Raging Heart technique was powerful, it didn't mean this spirit didn't have more tricks up its sleeves. Henoke gritted his teeth, waiting to see what his shotlock ability did for damage as he held up the large Keyblade in front of him.
