Post by Rydia on Dec 2, 2009 16:24:19 GMT -5
The time has come, child. You will go to the places I will show you, and there are things and people you must bring to me. Once we have everything in our grasp, all the most powerful beasts in every world will belong to us. No more will I have to deal with bumbling idiots, concerned only with conquering their own puny world. Instead I will have mastery over the Gods themselves, and every world shall bow to me.
With this Maleficent had dispatched Rydia on the great mission to claim all the summons in every world. Since it was a big mission Rydia was given the power to summon all kinds of Heartless, including some boss types. She would need every bit of her magic and summons to stand a chance, since the moment she made her move Maleficent knew the heroes of light would all arrive to stop her.
But she would not be stopped.
~*~
The Heartless began to appear all over the world in small groups, attacking citizens in all the major cities. They never stayed in one place but instead moved around, causing as much turmoil as possible. It had been planned that way to distract some of the fighting forces of the world away from the real target: Cosmo Canyon.
Now Rydia looked down from her perch at the reddish rocks of the large canyon. She was riding on top of the Mist Dragon, now stained black and with the glowing eyes of a Heartless. Once the great dragon had been a holy elemental and the protector of Mist Village, but now it was a demon of poisonous mist and darkness.
With Rydia flew squadron after squadron of Air Soldiers, Wyverns, Darkballs, Wizards and all the small magical Heartless. There was restless energy among all of them, and a great cloud of darkness and magic hung around them, obscuring the sky like an oncoming storm.
Rydia found what she was looking for; an observatory poking out above the rest of the city. In there she knew she could find the Huge Red Materia; the Master Summon. With it all the summons of this world could be corrupted by Maleficent.
Rydia took out her flame staff and pointed at the small village and the observatory within it.
"Attack," she murmured. She didn't need to yell, the Heartless were all tied to her anyway. As one great wave they all swooped down to begin to rain destruction on Cosmo Canyon.
((Alright, here we go. Once the posting order is established please stick to it. Also not everyone will be fighting Rydia or the Mist Dragon. If you're going to, please declare it and everyone else can respect that. If you're not fighting Rydia or the Dragon just post about how you and whoever your with are fighting against the giant horde of Heartless all over the place, and not necessarily in Cosmo Canyon either since there's small attacks going on everywhere. Thanks.))

Ash landed and watched the destruction. He had flash backs to the day his planet was swallowed by the darkness. "No this can't be real." He told himself and watched the heartless run into the cosmo canyon. He looked around and saw rydia. He remembered her from the other worlds.
"HEY RYDIA WE COULD USE YOUR HELP DOWN here..." He said and noticed the dragon she rode on. He scowled and clenched his fists. "This makes sense now why you were at the Cerberus and asked about the summoners monsters." He said to himself and glared at her. "I will never ever forgive you for what you are doing here." He said and clenched his fists tighter.
He yelled and his hair stood up and turned yellow. A yellow aura appeared around him. "Congratulations you get to fight me in this form. I promise i won't enjoy it. But this is for everyone your heartless have hurt." He said and toke off to wards her.

"So it is time" Genesis said closing his LOVELESS book turning to face Rydia. He has already joined the Darkness and enjoyed the power he possessed because of it. He also decided to take part in this little mission and help with the destruction of his home world. Or at least stop some of the heroes of Light so they don't interfere with the main event.
"There is no hate, only joy
For you are beloved by the goddess
Hero of the dawn, Healer of worlds
Dreams of the morrow hath the shattered soul
Pride is lost
Wings stripped away, the end is nigh."
With that quote he stretched his back wing to appear and took off to Cosmo Canyon. He stayed there watching as the Heartless destroyed his home world without a care. True Gaia was his home world, but he never felt as if he truly belonged there. Instead he everyone shunned away calling him a monster well now he was.

It seemed like just another ordinary day only she couldn't wait for this one to finally end. It was just too long and tiring…… With a sighed Tifa shook her head. All she wanted now was to end this day and get some rest, and she would do that as soon as she was done with her chores and the first on her list was washing the dishes.
"Finally this day is over" She said with a sighed once she was finally done. She turned to the stairs ready to end the day when a scream broke through the silence. "What?" Tifa turned but stood in her place. Did she just imagine that? It was soon followed by other screams and calls for help.
'What was going on?' she wondered opening the door and running outside to see the horrific sight. Heartless were everywhere destroying homes and attacking innocent people. "No…."Tifa cried with a few tears as she stood there unable to move for a few seconds. She saw this before how Heartless attack people to obtain their hearts, and how Darkness takes over the world. No she wouldn't accept that she wouldn't let that happen. Without another thought Tifa pulled out her leather gloves and soon jumped into action attacking the ones closer to her.

Another busy day for Cloud. He was returning home to Midgar after delivering a package to Banora....He was tired and eager to get home ASAP. He was glad he made excellent time too. As he flew down one of the lonely dirt roads he saw an amazing sight a head of him....Cloud had to practically drive in the ditch! Cause of all the vehicles , big and small were trying to as fast as they could to get the hell out....There were even people on foot.....Cloud rode slowly at first to get around some that were walking in his path....Then he had to find some one and ask what the hell was going on.....
"Excuse me...What's going on here?!" Cloud asked a woman....
"Heartless....!!! Get the hell out of Midgar!!" A man shouted as he ran past Cloud holding what seemed every piece of materials he owned....
As soon as Cloud heard that....He gave his bike a good juice up and spun straight towards Midgar! " Hey man!! Don't go!!" But Cloud ignore the warning....His family was there.....
Cloud rode right into Midgar....He flew threw some empty streets....And stopped on an empty bridge....That had seemed to been being attacked by one of the Heartless.....Not prepared for a fight, Cloud grabbed the railing of the creaking bridge that was being torn apart.....Obviously the Heartless did not see Cloud thank goodness...But still it got Cloud's heart to racing....He was soon falling with the bridge itself.....And it smashed hard in the darkness....Clouds of dust pillowed upwards after the majestic fall of the bridge itself.....Cloud coughed as he couldn't see where he was now....He ached all over....He was far from 7th Heaven...But hoped that he had enough bars on his phone....He realized a heavy piece of the bridge's pipes were laying both his legs....Great.....So it took him a minute to get to his cell phone and he got it out....Making sure it was not damaged....He speed dialed Tifa....But was scared that his phone was out of range.....Who would know he was here....? No one....He could possible die of suffocation.....

Why was she there? Lightning thought of that reason as she walked down the streets with her Blaze Edge in her hand. She had other things to care about and one was searching for her sister Serah but something like this Lightning couldn't ignore.
She took every chance she got to learn about the other side and the power it possessed. Though she served neither side it was best to know about them both and that brought her here to Gaia.
She walked down the streets ignoring all warnings and screams she heard. There was no fear or panic in her eyes as she walked deeper into a city but stopped when she couldn't go any further. The bridge connecting the place was down. She glanced down at the debris to notice a figure down in the distance he must have fell when this bridge collapsed. She activated her shield and jumped down.

Kairi was on her way to the world of Gaia. She heard that something was happening to that world and decided to go there to help with what she could. She already left Sora and Riku a note telling them where she was going and why.
The Darkness was trying to take another world. Kairi knew what it felt like to lose a home. She lost hers twice but with the help of her friends she was able to return there safely. She also knew that this was the place where some of the Heroes of Light she met before lived, and so she came to help them with the fight.

(Though of posting since no one else has and I didn't want this thread to die.)
"When the war of the beasts brings about the world’s end
The goddess descends from the sky
Wings of light and dark spread afar
She guides us to bliss, her gift everlasting.
Infinite in mystery is the gift of the goddess
We seek it thus, and take it to the sky
Ripples form on the water’s surface
The wandering soul knows no rest."
Genesis quoted that poem he knew so well. He walked down the streets as the screams of the people of Gaia filled his ears, and he could only smile. It was just like before when he released some of the experiments to attack his home, only this time it was better. With the power of the Darkness he had the Heartless at his command attacking and killing all those who called him a monster before.... well now he was.
Cold and heartless he just stood there to watch with nothing more than a sneer on his lips. Vengeance……'yes vengeance to the world that turned and used me.' "Now to collect those summoning materia we came for….." He muttered to himself as a reminder to why he was there, and made his way down the streets.

No matter how many she stopped more just kept on coming. "Their is no stopping them....." She sighed looking up at the sky as it covered with Darkness. "There has to be a way." She said helping as many citizens as she could and tried to find where the Heartless were coming from.
'Cosmo Canyon' thats what she heard from one of the people she tried to save and as soon as she could Tifa hurried to the train station and boarded one to Cosmo Canyon. Luckily the trains were still working and that was the fastest way to get there. She just hoped she could stop what ever was behind this attack but just in case she couldn't Tifa left a note for Cloud in the bar explaining where she was and why.

Zack Fair
Zack jogged down the streets of Midgar. He was back...back from the lifestream. He had found Cloud...or rather...he had found him, but it was all the same. He had been alone in Midgar, and Cloud had tried to explain what was going on. Heartless? He didn't know exactly what they were, but they didn't sound like something to take lightly. Shrugging, he continued on. His large sword hung on his back. He had gotten the Buster Sword back...and right on time if this was all going to happen!
He stopped, before freezing. Cloud...? Zack could sometimes feel others emotions, maybe it was because he wasn't normal. He didn't think about it, but he did know that whatever it was, Cloud needed some help. Zack turned and sprinted off. He let his heart lead the way. He stopped on top of a hill...the street beneath his feet was cracked and broken. Seeing from a distance a strange being seem to take down the bridge. His eyes narrowed, looking at it, when suddenly something caught his eye. "Cloud?" He spoke quietly, yet urgently. He had thought he had seen a brief image of his friend before the bridge collapsed.
His gaze suddenly was pulled upward. A being, dressed in mostly red, flew with a black wing protruding from his left shoulder. "Damn..." He said, but somehow, he wasn't surprised. He had thought Genesis dead one to many times to think so now. He watched him fly away, and was about to go after him, when he suddenly remembered Cloud might be under that rubble. He knew Genesis wasn't up to any good, but he wasn't going after him if Cloud was in danger.
He slid and ran down the hill, avoiding the things that were blocking his path. getting to where the bridge used to be, He coughed at the dust and rubble that seemed to be floating in the air. "Cloud?!" He choked out, blinking rapidly to see past the thick pillar of dust that rose up around him. And then he saw him. He seemed to be trapped under some sort of heavy piping from the bridge. "Cloud!" He gasped out as he went to his friends side. He knelt down, praying that he was ok. When he saw that he seemed to be alright, Zack heaved a relieved sigh. "Dude I always have to get you outta these things! Maybe you should start getting me out of pickles every once in awhile!" He spoke teasingly trying to keep the scared feelings he had felt for his best friend out of his voice.
Touching the piping, He glanced at Cloud. "I'm gonna move this off of you, so grit your teeth and brace yourself!" He tousled his hair before positioning himself where he could grab the piping. Grunting with extreme effort, he heaved the piping off of Cloud's legs. Just clearing it so that Cloud could get out. He let it fall where it was off of Cloud's legs, before turning to his friend, "Can you walk man?" His voice was concerned, worried.

"Cloud?!" "Cloud!"
"Zack?" Cloud coughed...
"Dude I always have to get you outta these things! Maybe you should start getting me out of pickles every once in awhile!" Cloud laughed slightly grunted as well...."Would be a nice change...." "I'm gonna move this off of you, so grit your teeth and brace yourself!" Cloud nodded....Cloud squinted his eyes and gritted his teeth at the same time....He didn't open his eyes until he heard the heavy pile of debris slam a few feet away from him....Man Zack was still strong...."Can you walk man?" "One way to find out....."
Cloud slid out from where he was trapped and looked at Zack......
"Hey Zack...Take it easy...I'm okay..." Cloud knew how his friend worried...Zack worried just as much as Tifa did about him....Not that Cloud never worried about them....Cloud was happy now that he had some one to help him....But his bike was totaled....Cloud looked over at his now destroyed bike....And sighed....
"Looks like we're both walking..." Cloud was scared....And Zack would see it...Their home was being destroyed right before their eyes....Maybe this was bigger than what Cloud thought it would be......

Lightning stood in her place as someone else jumped in to help Cloud. She stood with arms crossed as she looked at the two. "I see you’re alright good." She simply said taking a few steps closer before letting her hands drop to her side. "So can someone explain what’s going on around here?"
Not being from that world Lightning hadn't the slightest idea of what was happening, only that it was under attack. This event did remind her of her past that night in Cocoon when she and her comrades turned to I'Cie and changed their lives forever.
It was the same only that fight was between light and dark. She sighed activating her Gravity Bomb to form light blue waves around her before jumping out of the whole and waited for the other two to follow.

Zack chuckled when Cloud said it would be a nice chance, but ended up coughing from the dust that was swirling around them. He was breathing hard, from running all the way there, then lifting the heavy piping off of Cloud. He was glad that Cloud had enough gumption to try to walk, even though he had just been stuck underneath that heavy weight.
Shaking his head, Zack relaxed somewhat. "Ok ok, I'll stop worrying about you!" He saw Cloud look at his fenrir, and shrugged. he knew Cloud was attached to the bike, after this all blew over, they could probably fix it up. he shook his head, bringing himself back to reality. "Yeah...I'm used to it, hope your legs are up for it though!" He grinned, then suddenly noticed the woman standing on part of the destroyed bridge.
She looked a lot like Cloud, except her hair was pinkish, and of course, she was a girl. His eyebrows raised, his hand reached back for the handle of his sword, yet, he did not pull it out. The woman didn't seem to be hostel toward them, she seemed friendly enough, though Zack didn't know her. He glanced back at Cloud before starting to climb out of the hole. He jumped and scrambled, easily getting out.
Turning, he waited for Cloud to hop out as well. Turning to the woman he shrugged. "I just got back to Gaia, so I'm not exactly sure whats happening. I think Genesis has something to do with it. Knowing him, he is stealing some powerful materia to help him try to take over the world. And this heartless is running rampant around the world!" Sighing, he glanced at Cloud, "But Cloud knows more about Heartless then me!"
Glancing up at the sky, he motioned to them, "lets talk while we walk! I think I know where Genesis might be going, and I want to stop him, so we best get moving!" He spoke swiftly, before nodding to the woman and glancing at Cloud, wondering if he would be good enough to walk all that way. "You gonna be alright Cloud?" Then he remembered Cloud didn't want him to be so worried about him, but he was just asking a question. |

"The darkness is trying to take over your world." Ash said and landed next to them. "The same thing happened to my home world. We have to defeat the heartless and try to defend this world by working together." He said with a smile and his hair fell back down and turned black again. "The most heartless are converging on cosmo canyon."
Ash looked at them. "Don't ask how i know all this we just have to fight until we can't fight anymore. I don't want this world to become like mine and disappear forever." He said and clenched his fists.
