Roleplay Kingdom Hearts: The Challenge of a God

[Javelin434 3,164]

Kya glared at Jake. "You better watch your tone, I've lived here for the majority of my life. I, of all people would know what is normal here. I was simply stating that I'm not concerned, I dont smell a hint of Darkness inside there, so I dont think anything's wrong." Kya told him, Violet just hummed.

 

"Well, Light can be just as bad. So something bad could be happening there, but the bad guy is using Light. So, let's help them." Violet said simply with a smile, Kya just shook her head, and followed the blonde as she went to follow Four, and Jake. Violet sent a lopsided smile Kya's way. "You should probably apologize." Violet said quietly, Kya shook her head.

 

"I'm not apologizing when I did nothing wrong. I stated my views. If he doesn't like them, he doesn't have to be here." Kya said bitterly, Violet shrugged, and looked to Jake, and Four.

 

"And you say I'm stubborn." Violet muttered, before she skipped ahead to Jake, and Four, summoning Oathkeeper in her left hand. "You two aren't nearly as fun as the other guys I hand out with." Violet commented simply, with a smile. "But you'll do." Violet told them, as Kya growled, and hurried next to the blonde, but she didn't summon her Keyblade, there was no threat in her eyes, so no need.

 

-Yen Sid's Office-

 

Tanner smiled as they finished their spell, and a large puff of smoke filled the room. Tanner whistled, and waved some smoke away. using some quick Aero magic to send the smoke out the window. In one of Tanner's hands he held the Book of Prophecies, and in the other was a bright crystallized orb, shining in a faint red light.

 

"You know, if I weren't here, and doing the spell, this would be completely forbidden magic for you to ever attempt." Tanner remarked as he took the book back, and closed it, before Yen Sid could actually see the pages clearly, he placed the book back on his back, and tossed the small orb up and down. Yen Sid simply smiled a bit and laughed.

 

"It is fortunate you are here then. But I worry... Is this truly wise?" Yen Sid asked, stroking his beard with one hand, Tanner merely hummed, with a simple shrug.

 

"Yeah. I'm allowed to use the Book, plus they need to see what future awaits them if they fail to stop him. It's only one of an essentially infinite set of outcomes. In fact there's one where you accidentally conjure a giant boulder, and it rolls down the stairs crushing them all. It's an extremely illogical small percentage, but, it is there." Tanner stopped. "The point is, this possible future is going to happen if they fail." He remarked, staring at the baseball sized orb in his hand, eagerly anticipating the arrival of the group, he was curious to see where this thread of events lead.

 

Finishing sorting his thoughts out, Gaku decided to follow the group. He chose to do so due to having no knowledge or clues about what path to take for the trial. He looked at Sasuke who is still probably dozing off and jumped off the tower. "Sayonara." Gaku said. He fell down and floated midair before landing softly onto the ground close to Zek. "I'm gonna head where the train went. You expressed thoughts of heading over there, so I'll carry you there." Gaku said. He grabbed Zek, jumped up and flew towards the Mysterious Tower.

 

Harmony got off the train and took in the sight of the lone strange tower in the middle of the island. ​What a cool place. Looks really old. So this is where Yen Sid lives? ​Harmony thought. She was about to go inside the tower until spotting a figure flying in the sky. A closer look brought joy to her as the figure revealed to be Gaku and Zek. The two landed safely into the ground as Harmony ran up to them. "Hey guys!" Harmony said. She then looked at Gaku. "So I take you're gonna be joining us for the ride?" Harmony asked. "For a short while until I am clear on the path I should take." He looked at the tower in interest. ​So this is Yen Sid's tower huh. . . Crooked and strange. Sounds like a home to a wise person. ​​Gaku thought.

 

The two heard Jacob's yelling and immediately went into full alert as they summoned their Keyblades. "Let's go!" Gaku said as he began to run inside. "Right!" Harmony said as she followed suit. Upon catching up with the group by the door to Yen Sid's room, Harmony came up with an idea. "Gaku. Scan the room behind the door." She said. Giving a small nod, Gaku leaned against the wall and focused inside the room using his abilities. "Two figures. The older one with the beard I would assume is Yen Sid and some adult. Talking about prophecies or some sort. I do sense powerful magic inside there, but nothing of harm. I assume they are already expecting us, so go knock on the door." Gaku informed the others.

 

Zek heard Gaku land, and he turned to see Gaku's hand reaching down for him. Zek was somewhat suprised that someone had this kind of strength, but enjoyed the wind. They landed and Harmony ran up to them happy about Gaku being there, when Gaku looked at the tower, Zek noticed how unfamiliar it looked to everything else he had seen before. He followed them to the door, he looked at everyone and decided to approach the door to prove that he wasn't a weak link. He softly knocked on the door and opened the door enough to poke his head in, "He-hello?" Zek called out softly. Noticing Yen Sid and another man stood waiting infront of the door, and Zek fully opend the door and walked in immediately moving the the right to let everyone else in.

[Yen Sid's Tower]

 

Four had braced himself on the wall right next to the door, rifle in hand and was just about to commence a breaching maneuver into the room when Gaku relayed his observation. "Two figures. The older one with the beard I would assume is Yen Sid and some adult. Talking about prophecies or some sort. I do sense powerful magic inside there, but nothing of harm. I assume they are already expecting us, so go knock on the door." He decided not to execute property damage, and instead pushed open the door with a swiftness that was almost the same thing as breaching it. The guardian rushed inside, back hugging the closest wall as he drew his rifle and side stepped towards the right.

 

All it took was a moment for him to target Tanner as his rifle was already trained on the stranger, who was a little too close to Yen Sid for his own comfort. "Identify yourself immediately!" Four barked, hoping that he was just overreacting and not actually needing to fight anyone.

Tanner watched Four with an amused little smirk on his face. Managing to look both condescending, and sincere at the same time, as he laughed. The rifle targeted him, and he simply laughed.

 

"Now, now. Calm down, you wouldn't, or couldn't shoot me. You couldn't because I would have you locked in a realm well outside of your understanding the moment before your finger tensed on that trigger. Now, you wouldn't because I am friendly, and a servant of the worlds, or specifically, Kingdom Hearts. You know that thing the everyone wants, yet no one can truly get." Tanner stopped, pausing only to look at the others. "Come on in, I have no intention of harming any of you."

 

"Who are you?" Violet asked, as she made her way inside the room, before she noticed Yen Sid. "Wow, you sure have a beard, dont you! I'ts impressive." Violet said, Kya glared at the blonde and pinched her elbow, making Violet squeak quietly and shut her mouth.

 

"Kya, be more respectful when speaking to Yen Sid." Kya said, before bowing to Yen Sid. Tanner just cleared his throat.

 

"Excuse me, but this whole thing was about me, you two have had way more lines of dialogue than me in this little cooperative tale, let me have at least one post about me." Tanner told Violet, and Kya simply, nothing but patience in his voice, and playful sarcasm. Though the two didn't understand what he meant entirely. "Anyway... Waffles. I am Tanner Natoosh Tempus. I wouldn't call me a friend, but that's because we dont know each other yet. I'm sure you're wondering why I'm here. Well, my job is to nudge history in one way or another. I've done it since me and my sister first discovered the mystical Kingdom Hearts, well before the first Keyblade was forged. Anyway, enough about my immortality, what ZaZick is doing, and what he has done to the worlds, is appalling. Now, normally I'm not actually allowed to interfere directly, and push for one outcome or the other, but..." Tanner stopped, pausing for a moment, looking noticeably more depressed than just a few moments before.

 

"I did that for a few reasons, I wanted to break up my little speech. Too much in one place can be harder to comprehend. Anyway, I'm not allowed to push for one future over another, but ZaZick offended me personally by imprisoning my sister. You have to understand that, when you've been alive as long as we have you learn not to get too attached to people, because watching them die becomes too painful. My sister is the only person I know who I wont end up outliving. So, I'm going to get her back, which means I'm going to help you." Tanner told them. "Anyway, this sphere... shows a destroyed future, which will happen if you fail. I'm entrusting Kya to this, because you others I dont know yet." Tanner said, stepping forwards, and handing the sphere to Kya, who merely gave it, and him a confused look.

 

"I've never met you before..." Kya said, Tanner chuckled again.

 

"Oh right, not you. It was you, but not the same you, a different version of you. I read from the Book of Prophecies." He quickly dismissed what he had said previously, they couldn't know what he truly meant by that statement. Kya merely hummed, and looked at the sphere. It projected visions of a desolated land, showing many landmarks from every world overrun by Heartless. The sky perpetually dark, with bright orange embers floating across the dead, and barren landscape, sitting on a throne made from skulls was ZaZick, a small trinket from every person who had accepted his challenge lying on the ground at the base of the throne.

[Yen Sid's Tower]

 

Four eased his finger off the trigger as Tanner reassured the Guardian that it would be 'impossible' to kill him. Not really taking the idea of invincibility at face value and more than willing to test the claim, he lowered the rifle ever so lightly so that the energy barrel of the weapon was aimed at the stranger's feet. His face was still resting on the rear stock of the rifle, still pointing in the same direction as it was for an immediate redraw. "Anyway... Waffles."

 

Four was slightly disturbed at the stranger knowing the name given to him by Kairi, but was quick to keep it under control. Was Kairi blabbing about me and her accidental naming of me after my decommissioning? "I am Tanner Natoosh Tempus. I wouldn't call me a friend, but that's because we don't know each other yet."

"Fair enough. Go on."

"I'm sure you're wondering why I'm here. Well, my job is to nudge history in one way or another. I've done it since me and my sister first discovered the mystical Kingdom Hearts, well before the first Keyblade was forged. Anyway, enough about my immortality, what ZaZick is doing, and what he has done to the worlds, is appalling. Now, normally I'm not actually allowed to interfere directly, and push for one outcome or the other, but..."

Four's gaze hardened as his finger touched the trigger again.

"I did that for a few reasons, I wanted to break up my little speech. Too much in one place can be harder to comprehend. Anyway, I'm not allowed to push for one future over another, but ZaZick offended me personally by imprisoning my sister. You have to understand that, when you've been alive as long as we have you learn not to get too attached to people, because watching them die becomes too painful.

Anyways, this sphere... shows a destroyed future, which will happen if you fail. I'm entrusting Kya to this, because you others I don't know yet."

As Tanner took his first step towards Kya, Four broke away from his combative posture and assumed a more relaxed stance as he lowered his rifle, cradling it in his arms. If the stranger trusted Kya, and Kya is an identified ally in this mission, well maybe this guy isn't so bad after all...

"I've never met you before..." Kya responded to Tanner. Well, that's awkward. Not my problem though...

 

"So," Four spoke, "how do you intend to help? Or is that orb the help you were referring to?" It was now that he noticed Yen Sid in the room. "Commandant..." he said, acknowledging the presence of his superior, "it's been a while, sir."
