Kingdom Hearts Fan Fiction ❯ __Our Bloody Loss__ ❯ Our Bloody Loss II ( Chapter 2 )

Author’s Note: Ok, the site screwed it up. This part was supposed to be posted with the rest, and I’m not sure if it was already, but I’m going to make two chapters to be safe. Enjoy!

Last Chapter: He pointed his other hand towards Kairi and called out Namine. A blue light came forth from her heart and she too felt as if a piece of her was being taken. The light slowly took Namine’s form and her hands were quickly chained around her back. She knelt by Kairi and looked sorrowfully at her dead friends lying beside her.

“What have you done Xemnas?”

“Don’t blame me, witch. Blame your little friend Sora.” Xemnas said coldly.

Sora looked horrified.

“It’s not what it seems like. He forced me to do it.” he pleaded.

“I know Sora, I know.” she said.

“Enough chat, plunge it into her heart and be quick about it.”

Sora looked petrified. However, he was still dragged against his will towards Namine.

“No, no please, no.” Roxas whimpered as Sora was forced to raise his Keyblade.

“Its okay Roxas, we’ll be together again. Don‘t be scared.” she comforted.

He looked at her with red swollen, pain ridden eyes.

“You know I love you, Namine.” he choked out.

She laughed. “I know. I love you too Roxas.”

The Oblivion came crashing down into her heart and she cried out softly. Pain coursed through her body, as it had the others, before the darkness came. Her small form suddenly lost its glow, and she sunk to the floor like the others, no longer having the strength to hold herself up. She closed those beautiful blue eyes that made Roxas’ heart melt, and she was gone.

“You filthy bastard.” Roxas snarled towards Xemnas.

“Oh, now that hurts Roxas.” he sarcastically commented.

“Kairi next.” said Larxene.

“No, Axel. Make him slay the traitor.” said Demyx.

“Good thinking Demyx.”

Sora’s feet scraped past Kairi, Roxas and Riku and came in front of Axel.

Sora couldn’t breathe, he couldn’t think, he couldn’t feel. He was so overcome by sorrow, he didn’t even respond to any of this. Kairi was heavily crying, and Sora even saw a tear slide down Riku’s face. But he didn’t even feel tears approaching anymore. He had shut off.

Roxas couldn’t stop his tears from flowing as he watched Sora raise his bloody Keyblade.

“I’m so sorry, Axel.” Roxas said.

“It’s nothing, just promise me we’ll meet again.”

“I promise, friend.”

“Best friend, got it memorized?”

Roxas nodded. Sora unwillingly brought the blade once again into a heart, making it crumple and die. Axel coughed once and fell to the ground. He glanced over once at Roxas before closing his emerald green eyes forever.

Tears ran down his face as he looked at the bloody, beaten figure below him. Now there was a new gathering pool of crimson blood gathering underneath his dead friend.

“Now only those three are left.” said Sephiroth.

They had almost forgotten he was there, his eyes had been on Cloud most of the time.

Kairi was first. She had said her goodbye’s to her friends. She had shared great adventures with these people, and they would still have great adventures, wherever they were going, she thought.

“I’ll see you guys in a little bit.” she said, tears in her eyes. “Oh, and since there’s no better time to say it, Sora, well, I love you.” she almost giggled.

He looked up from the ground and met her eyes. “Really?”

She now laughed. “Yeah, for a long time now.”

“I feel the same way, Kairi.” he said while he blushed.

Riku looked down as they leaned in ever so tenderly for a slight kiss. Their pink lips brushed lightly against one another in an innocent, but passion filled kiss.

They parted, still looking into each other’s eyes as he raised the Keyblade. Sora hadn’t looked away as he was forced to kill her with the Oathkeeper, the Keyblade she had given him so long ago…

He was feeling sick and weak. He just wanted to die after what he was doing now.

She looked surprised, then almost relieved. “Come find me you two.” she whispered. Then her sapphire eyes fluttered close, never to open again. She rested against Riku.

Riku let a small tear roll down his cheek as he looked at her. Sora also let a small bead of water fall slowly down his cheek. They looked at each other, still best friends and cried openly over her. (It starts with) One thing / I don’t know why It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To explain in due time
All I know
time is a valuable thing
Watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
Watch it count down to the end of the day
The clock ticks life away
It’s so unreal
Didn’t look out below
Watch the time go right out the window
Trying to hold on / but didn’t even know
Wasted it all just to
Watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I tried
so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn't even matter
One thing / I don’t know why
It doesn’t even matter how hard you try
Keep that in mind / I designed this rhyme
To remind myself how
I tried so hard
In spite of the way you were mocking me
Acting like I was part of your property
Remembering all the times you fought with me
I’m surprised it got so (far)
Things aren’t the way they were before
You wouldn’t even recognize me anymore
Not that you knew me back then
But it all comes back to me
In the end
You kept everything inside and even though I tried / it all fell apart
What it meant to me / will eventually / be a memory / of a time when I
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I've put my trust in you
Pushed as far as I can go
For all this
There’s only one thing you should know
I tried so hard
And got so far
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter
I had to fall
To lose it all
But in the end
It doesn’t even matter  

Riku was to be killed next. His aqua eyes were filled with sadness. He looked at his best friend, Sora, who knew all his secrets, his lies, his mistakes, every bit of his being. His other.

“You were always my light Sora, always.”

Sora nodded, tears running down his face.

“And you were mine.”

Riku looked shocked at his comment, then grateful.

“Race you there.”

Sora nodded.

Riku felt the cold metal of the Keyblade enter his chest. He didn’t make any noise, just the tears running down his face and hitting the floor. It was ripped from him and he fell towards Kairi. His aqua eyes strayed to Sora. He smiled, then was gone.

Roxas was in such pain, he wanted it all to end. Sora eyes were taken from Riku’s figure as he looked down at Roxas.

“And then there was one.” said Xemnas.

“Kill the traitor… kill him now…” the Dusks chanted.

All the Organization members were smiling, hungrily awaiting his cruel death.

As the two boys gazed into each other’s identical eyes, they reached a mental bond.

Meet us up there, ok?

I can’t face them, I’ve killed them all…

You didn’t do any of this Sora, don‘t you dare tell yourself otherwise. Everyone understands and we’re still your friends.

I’m sorry for all of this Roxas...

So am I.

I’ll be there with you and the others, I promise.

Goodbye for now.

They’re mental conversation was broken as the Keyblade came slicing into Roxas’ heart. He seemed to be relieved as he slumped to the ground and closed the eyes that were so close to Sora’s own. It was like watching himself die, Sora coldly thought.

Good morning day
Sorry I’m not there
But all my favorite friends
Vanished in the air
It’s hard to fly when you can’t even run
Once I had the world, but now I’ve got no one

If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to hold me down
I would change my direction
And save myself before I
If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to push me around
I would change my direction
And save myself before I drown….drown

Good morning day
Sorry you’re not here
All those times before
We’re never this unclear
It’s hard to walk when you can’t even crawl
Once I had this world, but now I’ve lost it all

Xemnas turned Sora harshly to face the Organization members.

“How did it feel, slaying all of your dearest friends?” the leader of the Organization asked.

“How do you think you scum bag?” Sora replied coldly.

“I think I’ll kill you myself right here and now.” Xemnas replied.

If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to hold me down
I would change my direction
And save myself before I
If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to push me around
I would change my direction
And save myself before I drown

“Go ahead, I have nothing to lose.” Sora replied hollowly.

Just as he said this he felt a pressure close around his throat. He could feel the air being taken from him. The darkness was closing in. Xemnas came closer and closer, until it was his cold hands clamped around Sora’s throat.

Rolling faster than I’m breathing
Drown
Rolling faster than I’m breathing
Drown
Rolling faster than I’m breathing

“How did it feel, your defeat, not something your used to, is it Keyblade bearer? Your not used to the hatred you feel for the darkness now. Not used to having your friends slaughtered by your own Keyblade…”

If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to hold me down
I would change my direction
And save myself before I
If I needed someone to control me
If I needed someone to push me around
I would change my direction
And save myself before I

“You know what I can’t get used to Xemnas?” Sora choked out. “Being killed by a gutless fuck like you. Light does prevail over darkness, and I will see my friends again.”

Save myself before I drown, save myself before I drown, save myself before I drown

“But how can you say that at the very end of life, when you are at my mercy…?” He asked, subtle astonishment and curiosity was in his voice.

Sora used his last few breaths to reply. “Our light always overcomes the darkness, even in the midst of our bloody loss…”

Sora’s body was dropped to the floor, right next to Kairi‘s and Riku‘s like he had always been in life. He left the shocked Organization XIII members in the dark courtroom…

Sora woke up to a bright light. He sat up and found himself on Destiny Islands. He stood up and ran to the paopu tree, all his friends were waiting…

I just made so many corrections. First it was Roxas being forced to kill everyone, then it was Sora killing Xemnas…AHHHH… anyways…I really do hope you guys enjoyed this one, it took a lot of time to write. I know its not very good (can you tell I’m depressed about it’s mistakes?) But I can’t correct anymore, so it’ll just have to be how it is. Please Read and Review, constructive criticism is wanted!

P.S. (7-9-06)- Ok, just made corrections. Hope they’re good, not many reviews, or hits… I’m sad. But that’s how it goes, I guess. The first song is “Change” by Staind. Second is “In the End” by Linkin Park. Third and final song is “Drown” by Three Days Grace. Read and Review, please!
