A crisp black portal slowly opened up, and a young man shrouded by a dark suit walked out of it. No one could see his face, because he had on a black helmet wit ha silver lining to match his entire outfit. Vanitas just looked around, trying to figure out where he was exactly. It seemed he was in the center of a large white castle. Then it had just clicked into his mind just like that. This place could be Disney Castle.
He had herd about his place a few times. Of course that was a while back when his former Master was hanging around him like a fly. Everything was about the X-blade back then. Obviously everything still is about that horrid keyblade. Any person, who wields a keyblade, can obtain the X-blade and have a superior power over everything. Only for a short time he was able to have this special keyblade in his grasps.
Unfortunately, it was all taken away from him, because of that girl known as Aqua. Its not like it really matters any more, all he as to do is spread the darkness around. Slowly, all of the Unversed will show themselves yet again. Vanitas is officially back in business.
First things are first though. “I need to make sure that no keyblader gets in my way.” Even if it means he needs to kill anyone who gets in his way, Vanitas will slay the innocent. Before his black portal would close about three hawk like unversed flew out.
He let out a soft laugh before taking a few steps forward, only seeing more trees, bushes, and garden objects. This place was just so pathetic and full of life. Maybe he should chaos a little bit of chaos around this castle? Or perhaps he should find the cornerstone of light?

Sora found himself at the opening gardens leading to the castle . Everything here seemed like it had been perfectly preserved since his last visit. But this time there were no heartless. The first time he had been here the world was overrun by them. The castles barrier must be functioning correctly now . He began to wonder, is the king here? Even if he wasn't this was a good place to start right? After all he could always find leads. He nodded as he continued forward.
Sora then saw something faintly ahead of him swirling in the air, "Heartless?!" He thought to himself as he spoke aloud. "No it can't be". He began to run towards them, if anything was in danger here, it was his duty to protect it his Kingdom Key appearing in his hand as he drew near he threw it at one of the airborne enemies using his Strike Raid ability catching his keyblade as it returned to him . He then noticed the unfamiliar figure standing somewhat near the mysterious enemies. That armor.. it seemed so familiar to him, but just it couldn't be.
"Who are you?!" Sora exclaimed , realizing at this point this person was up to no good his seriousness showing as he was ready for a fight . |

When Vanitas saw a keyblade rip right through one of his Unversed Hawks, he saddened a little. However, that meant nothing to what was happening right now. A boy with a giant key came walking over to him. The dark soldier was highly amused that this boy had a keyblade, an interesting one at that. Vanitas knew the importance of his boy, he was the one who
gave a part of his light to Ven. It was because this boy shared his light with Ven, that he took the form of him. So how should he take care of this little one? Maybe he could convince him that he was on the good side? Oh yes of course, just like his little friend. His blackened heart was still connected to Ven and Sora, so he could sense things. “I’m Vanitas.”
He said softly. “I’m trying to protect this place from the heartless.” What disgusting creatures they were. Sure the heartless were on his side to a point. However, they were more annoying than his own Unversed, but he has full control over them. The Unversed will only appear everywhere unless he wants them to. After all, he is their source which allows them to live. “So who are you?”
If this young kid believes him, then everything will be in the works. Slowly, he will take this castle, and then rule the universes. Maybe, just maybe he will be able to re-create the X-blade once more. The only way he could do that is by fighting Ven. Even if it is only complete, he will be the strongest keyblader around. “So..” |

Sora gave a slight glare as the boy said his name . His gaze then lightened up again as Vanitas said he was also against the heartless . But could Sora believe him? The boy himself did somewhat resemble Riku when he was against Sora, then the creature that Sora had just defeated with his keyblade? Why wasn't the boy on the pursuit of them? This all made him weary of the boy. Sora finally responded to him letting down the grip on his keyblade.
"I'm Sora " . He said pointing to himself with his free hand and giving his usual carefree smile. He then continued "Anybody against the heartless is okay in my book..". He then remembered the creature that he had just struck as he fixed his gaze again on one of them . "But these creatures? what are they?!" His grip on his keyblade tightening again and his seriousness somewhat returning .
Sora wasn't going to be caught off guard. after all this boy was suspicious , and under no circumstances would Sora be hindered from his mission in finding the king, to continue his ultimate journey .

Vanitas slightly titled his head to the side out of sheer amusement. Sora was a rather interesting person indeed. One moment he releases his grip and calms down, but then realizes he should stay on guard. This keyblader is going to be very fun to mess with indeed.
So how should he take advantage of this situation? Right now he could brain wash Sora, or make him his enemy. Maybe if he makes Sora his enemy, he might be able to make the X-blade complete once more. However, Vanitas could sense Ventus dwelling in the darkness somewhere. So at this current moment in time, the masked boy was going to attempt to have Sora join him.
“How am I supposed to know? I only just got here.” He said softly. Obviously, he knew these creatures are known as the Unversed, seeing how he created them and all. Nonetheless, this was just one big game for the teen of darkness. Vanitas looked up, and noticed there was only two hawk unversed left. Both of them flying out of range from any attacks that Sora would make. |

Sora giving the boy a scowl still not trusting him. This whole situation seemed odd to Sora, and this boy seemed even more suspicious. To set it off even more he really didn't like his tone. Sora took in the boys response as he responded with the most obvious question on his mind.
"If you're here against the heartless, you sure don't seem to be against these creatures." Sora began to notice the hawks had now moved out of attack-able range. He thought to himself his seriousness returning to his face once again. This must be a diversion Sora began to think to himself. He must not let anything advert him from his goal, that's when it hit him.
If this boy was really against the heartless he had to be connected to someone against the cause, Sora spoke out once again . "Who are you working with against the heartless?" Sora was waiting for the boy to be caught off guard. The slightest reason to not believe him .

Vanitas knew this boy did not trust him at all. However, this boy was the reason for his looks and power. His blackened powers were so powerful, because Sora gave apart of his own powers to Ventus. In a flash of darkness, the Void Gear had appeared in Vanitas left hand. “I work with no one.”
The masked boy said rather bluntly. It was such a shame it had to come down to this. Well his looks really did not help his current situation. Besides from that anyone could sense the strong darkness inside of him. Everyone in existence is afraid of the darkness. However, the darkness is not only used for evil purposes.
Sora should know that. Vanitas let out a shrug and took a few steps closer to the young keyblader. Quickly, the masked boy charged towards Sora. “Lets see how good you are!” Once in range, the boy of darkness made a swift downwards slash followed up by a upwards strike.
Vanitas grew tired of trying to trick this boy. To be honest, he found more amusement in testing peoples strength out. After all if this boy was strong enough, Sora could be a good back up. Maybe by fighting Sora he could make the X-blade complete once more. |

Sora's eyes widened a bit when the keyblade appeared in the boys hand. He thought to himself, who is this boy really? As the boy began to advance on Sora he kept his eye sharp on him , was he being taunted? As Vanitas charged Sora he gripped his keyblade tighter. Almost instantly the boy was before him.
"!" Sora exclaimed holding his Kingdom Key up as it met with the boys Void Gear that was crashing down on him. Quickly after another blow was thrown at Sora acting on instinct went to guard again this one knocking Sora stumbling a few steps back.
Sora quickly got back on his guard holding his blade a in front of him. "I knew something was off about you all along! , I won't be holding back!" Sora now more serious than ever. He charged back at Vanitas with a few attacks of his own, a horizontal slash to the right, and an overhead swing .
Getting this boy out of his way was now his main priority , After all protecting the worlds comes first .

The moment that Vanitas had made his first attacks the Archravens charged into the battle. The masked boy noticed that both of his attacks were blocked, except one of them pushed his opponent back a few steps. He stayed silent as Sora said how he suspected him to be a bad guy. Vanitas stood completely still and watched his opponent charge in.
As the horizontal strike was being made, the masked boy dodged it with ease. “Your not strong enough yet.” He said in a disappointed manner. To be honest, he thought Sora would be stronger then this. After all he had many years of experience with the heartless. Maybe the heartless were just too weak like he suspected.
As Soras second attack came him an Archraven flew in the way of the attack and was thus slammed downwards. That Archraven could only take a few more hits before it would die. However, that did not matter much to Vanitas. Just as long as he could teach this keyblader how to fight properly. “Can’t you feel it deep in your heart? Our hearts linked together.”
Vanitas was both Vens and Soras darkness. It is only because of their darkness, that he is so powerful. Quickly he charged in and made an attempted three hit combo. First he made an upwards slash only to follow up with a diagonal spinning slash. To finish things off, the masked boy made a side to side swipe with his Void Gear. With knowing this, he made a slight jump back and awaited a response.
-----
Archraven - 2 hits left |

Sora scowled as he watched the boy dodge his horizontal attack with such ease, how? This made Sora even more curious he was ignoring the boys speech, he couldn't let him get into his head and then suddenly Sora hit an unintended target on his second swing. It was the mysterious enemy from earlier, Sora then glared at the boy as they stood a few feet from each other standing off.
"Stop with the nonsense!" Sora responded to the boy denying his declaration of them being connected. He continued, "I have nothing to do with you, or these creatures!" Before Sora could continue the boy rushed back at him catching him off guard. The first attack in the chain , the upward slash caught Sora with a direct hit as he he stumbled a bit , he prepared himself for the second strike missing timing on the guard and taking the blow as well, enduring it. Vanitas then continued the assault by swinging his blade at Sora horizontal, being more aware Sora Dodge Rolled out of the way. Quickly arising to his feet and back into stance.
This boy was strong, and he didn't seem to be letting up or getting tired at all. But he could not let this situation overwhelm him, he began to focus . This battle would take more than strength to win.
Sora glared at the Archravens circling the battle field above them. First thing was first he would have to get rid of them, he wouldn't have his attack be interrupted again. Fixing his gaze to the damaged Archraven . He quickly tossed his Kingdom Key at the creature catching it shortly after. He then began to charge the boy once again, this time leaping before reaching him and attacking with an overhead slash, then quickly a diagonal slash returning his arm to the first position, as he spun at the hilt around his hand striking with a downward diagonal slash . Shortly after landing on his feet dodge rolling out of possible danger once again preparing to see the end result.

Vanitas was slowly becoming bored with Sora in the fight. However, he was quite amazed that the boy could not tell they were linked together. Sora was supposed to sense things like this, because he is a keyblader. Before the opponent charged towards him, he threw his keyblade towards the Archraven.
Unfortunately, his raven got hit by the keyblade allowing it only one hit left before it would die. As Sora struck his keyblade downwards, the masked boy quickly put up his blade in order to block it. However, the second attack hit his chest and caused a small surge of pain in his chest. Almost immediately, Vanitas body froze up as Sora made his last attack. Once the final attack hit his body, it vanished into the darkness.
You see the moment, Soras keyblade hit the first time Vanitas vanished and left an after image of himself behind. A few moments later, the masked boy appeared above Sora attempting to strike his right shoulder with a powerful attack.
“I’m disappointed Sora.” Vanitas said in a un-amused tone. “You lack skill in fighting and sensing things. Looks deep down into your heart and you will see our link.” That is all Sora must do to see that himself and Vanitas are connected. It had happened a long time ago, so of course the young boy would have forgotten by now. |

Sora looked at the weakened raven , he knew it wouldn't take much more to take the enemy down, but it still wasn't the main threat . When Sora's first strike met with the boys keyblade he felt the power behind it , this boy still wasn't letting up. Neither would Sora. He made his second strike , for certain hitting the boy as his keyblade tore across the boys chest . Finishing his combo Sora exerted as much force as he could finishing the strike , almost certain he did some damage as he dodge rolled away. Shortly after the boys body disappeared into the darkness as Sora stood there puzzled for a second.
Suddenly he heard the boys voice behind him as he exclaimed "!?" Sora being caught completely off guard by this attack took a blow to his right shoulder as he crumbled under the pressure abit falling to one knee using his keyblade as a crutch to catch some of the recoil. Sora then actually began to listen to the boy speak, at first he was ignoring the boy. But something had been drawing him to the boy since the beginning. Sora began to rise from his feet pulling the keyblade out the the rich garden soil, He began to feel the dark aura resonating from Vanitas.
It was a powerful darkness , but something about it felt, familar , and embracing . He began to think to himself, is this what it was like for Riku? Sora then shook the thought . Either way, it was only the beginning of his journey this stop him . He then said , "What are you getting at?" . Keeping a close eye on him keeping his guard up .

Vanitasnoticed yet another of his attacks landed. That was good to a point, after all he does not want to beat the kid down to a bloody pulp. "My point?" Vanitas said in response to what Sora had said. "So you don't remember?" Vanitas softly said. This was a bigger disappointment to the masked boy. Not only Sora needed to get stronger, but he had forgotten what had happened?
Vanitas could remember it all so clearly, because he is Ventus as well. After he was taken out of Ventus body, Sora gave a little piece of him to Ven. Knowing this one fact they were all linked forever. "Its thanks to you i'm the strongest being." Vanitas said in a confident tone. Well technically he was the strongest darkness user. After all, he was Pure darkness with a human's body, and beating heart.
(Sorry short.) |

Sora looked at the boy in disbelief, he took a moment to take in what Vanitas had just said to him . "Thanks to me?" He began to search his heart for the memory he was looking for, his memory had been manipulated so much he had never had a chance to completely recollect.
He had felt the familiar aura of this boy from the beginning . But the darkness coming from him was throwing Sora off, but as he began to think he began to remember the connection he had made with the "saddened" heart long ago. But, this can't be what had become after all this time, Sora was confused , was he standing face to face with his own darkness?
Sora then spoke again , "I don't remember feeling this darkness, back then.." he stopped "No it was nothing like this."..

Vanitas let out a small laugh as Sora looked completely confused on what was happening. Yes, what Sora had felt that day was something of a saddened soul. No real darkness was there at all. However, Vanitas was slowly being ripped apart from Ven, and he knew what the young boy before him had done. "You see. I'm that boys dark half." Vanitas took a short pause.
The Masked boy soon let out a small laugh. "I'm the darkness in his heart, formed into a human. Thanks to you, I can use your darkness as well." Slowly, Vanitas took a few steps backwards. "You, myself and Ven are all linked together. I am the ultimate warrior!" Vanitas said even louder. "Can you stop me?" He said, while quickly running past Sora and made an incredible jump to the second level.
"You best hurry before your too late." He shouted. Quickly, he started to run towards the large doors and made his way in. Vanitas, continued to run until he reached the chair and pressed the secret switch. How could he know about this? It was all too simple for the Masked boy, because he is technically Sora. Without any hesitation, he ran down to the Conerstone of Light and awaited for the boy. |
