[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex was in unbelievable and he kept flickering between being awake and being unconciouss, Alex then found himself awake for a bit and his wound still burned, but the pain had disappeared a little. He saw Tessa trying to fix him up, but he felt like he didn't deserve to be healed. "Tessa." She then seemed happy that he was awake. "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry, it's my fault you got hurt." Alex felt extremely bad and disgusted with himself. "I am so sorry for what I did, I didn't want... I was trying to... I..." Alex couldn't find the words to express how sorry he was for hurting her so much.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa shook her head. "That wasn't you Alex. That was...something else. Who or whatever that was,it wasn't the Alex I know. You are the Alex I know."Tessa says smiling,hoping that it would make him feel atleast a bit better. She then looked down as she kept healing me. "I should be the one to be sorry. I wasn't there to stop you when that over took you...I should have killed the Heartless sooner and gotten there faster..."Tessa says. She saw his wounds seal. He helped him sit up and she hugged him. "I will make sure that you don't get taken over again,I'm sorry for failing the first time."Tessa says.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex felt happy that Tessa actually cared this much. "Thank you, but please don't take this burden on yourself. It was my responsibility to keep it in check and I couldn't stop it, I was the one who failed and not you." Alex then hugged back. "I just remembered." Alex then began to talk while still hugging Tessa. "I remember... when I attacked you... I was ferociouss and fearless because I had incredible power at my fingertips, but when you followed me here... I was afraid of you, I was afraid because for some reason I couldn't kill you and it led me to think that you were invincible to my attacks, but that wasn't all. After I attacked you and left, I became afraid because I was starting to fall apart and I was falling into darkness." Alex then closed his eyes. "I then remembered what triggered it all, I wanted power more than anything in the world and it was that same desire that helped me come back." Alex then began to hug her a little tighter. "I wanted power so that I could protect the ones I love."

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa didn't know what to say. But she smiled. She was happy that he was back. Back to his real self. The Alex she remembered. She hugged back. She then letted go and stood up. "Stand up,we need to rest,and I have a feeling it's going to rain soon."Tessa says being positive at the depresing state that the world was giving. She helped him up and then she got them insde the skyscraper that was in the city. Just at the moment,it started to rain. "It's been a long day...we should rest..."Tessa says. She turned to him smiling. "I also have people who I love,and want to protect."Tessa says.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex was surprised by what she had said, Alex smiled. Alex had no idea what to say at this moment, Tessa smiled at him. Alex stared at Tessa with a sad expression, but then looked down. "I still feel bad about hurting you and I don't know how to deal with it." (Damn, starting to sound like Chrona) Alex then looked at Tessa again. "I don't want to hurt you again, if I did then I don't know what I would do with myself." Tessa then grabbed his hand. "You won't." Alex smiled and looked at Tessa and thought. (Never again, I prommise that I'll keep her safe next time instead of her having to save me.) Alex then looked at Tessa and as he came closer to her, he kissed her. He then broke the kiss and looked at her. "I prommise I won't hurt you again."

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa blushed pink as Alex kissed her. She smiled and then felt her eyes heavy. She then kissed Alex and then broke the kiss. "Let's rest..."Tessa says. She rested against the wall. She blushed pink still and closed her eyes feeling tired. "(...I found love...)"Tessa thinks as she smiled and fell asleep. Today had been a very very very long day. They'd need streanght for tomorow. Another day of fighting against the darkness. But this time,Tessa was going to fight more than ever,to keep her promises.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex had fallen asleep almost immediately after resting his head on the ground. Alex then began to have a nightmare about the demon that came from his body. "You can't live like this Alex, your no better than a beast." "That is not true, you can't persuade me that easily." "It seems that I can't persuade you, but I am not lying Alex." The two were back in the room with the record player and the black and red checkered patterned floor. "How am I here? You'r not in my body any more, so how?" Alex asked finding himself in the same suit as before. "Alex, you can never escape from me, you are me and I am you." "No, I won't accept that I was responsible for things you did." "You truly are a coward Alex, you can't even face your own problems. This is why you are weak, this is why you need my power." "I don't need anything from you." Alex then saw a twin oppening door that was completely black. "I'll be leaving now." Alex then left the room and shut the door behind him. "Good bye, demon."

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa fell asleep and slept through the entire night. The next day she woke up. She looked at her watch. It was already 10 AM of the next morning. But with this world never having a sun,only a moon,it was not very noticable. She stood up and stretched a bit. She looked outside and saw that it had stopped raining. Atleast it wasn't that depressive much. Tessa then satted back down and looked as Alex was still asleep a bit..

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex then woke up and looked up at the ceiling. (The demon is no longer in my body, so how did he get into my head?) Alex then sat up and stared out blankly. (He can get into my head any time and he can use my feelings against me.) Alex then noticed that Tessa was up, he then stood up and walked over to her. "Hey, are you all rested?" Alex also noticed that his top was no longer ripped. (I guess since these are demonic clothes they heal them selves.)

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa looked back and noded. "Yeah."Tessa says. She blushed slightly and then looked at Alex. "Let's go around another world?We still have darkness to take care of."Tessa says smiling. She made a portal and passed through with Alex. They got to Hollow Bastion but there was no darkness around it...it all pointed down at one place. A hard pinpoint of darkness. Tessa walked around and stopped infront of a building. "It's coming from in here..."Tessa says as she entered the building and saw a kid's book witch had all of the darkness emerging from it.

[Oblivion 22 162]

"How the heck can a book have this much darkness coming from it?" Alex then stepped closer and looked at the book closely. "Maybe it's a magic book that Maleficent used." Alex then thought that was a stupid suugestion sinse it was clearly a childrens book. "Well, there's only one way to find out if it's dangerous or not and that's to open it." Tessa then oppened the book and the two began to get sucked in. "Oh damn, I'm not being sucked into anything else." Alex said remembering there run in with the magic mirror, but the two were pulled in and seperated on opposite sides of the book.

[Stardustblade358 806]

"Whoa!"Tessa says as she was sucked into one side of the book. Then she got knocked out as darkness took over her. Next thing she knows she is slowly waking up. She looked around to see everything around her rotten...and dead...and crumblely. As if crushed paper. She stood up and then heard a tiny skriek. Tessa turned to see a tiger and a pink...piglet,being chased by dark bees mutated by the darkness,along by Heartless. Tessa went in to destroy the enemy.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex looked around only to find that everything had been mutated by darkness. "This really doesn't look good." Alex was in a cave and it was almost like a maze. "Why'd I have to get stuck here of all places?" Alex then began to run around for a while going around in circle's. "Damn it, I have no idea where I'm going." Alex then saw a light. "Got it." He then ran out to find a forest with a trees that grew no leaves and burnt grass everywhere. "Who could have done this?"

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa slashed up the last Heartless and then turned to the two. "You two ok?"Tessa asks as she kneels down towards them. "Y-Y-Yeah,I-I-I-I think..."The piglet says. Tessa stared at them. "I'm Tessa."Tessa says introducing herself. The tiger went up to her. "I'm Tigger. And this is my pal,Piglet."The tiger says as he then bounced around her with his tail. "Ok,nice to meet ya two. Do you two know what could have done this?"Tessa asks. "I-I dunno. Everything was ok when suddenly everything went like this..."Piglet said shaking.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex kept running through the forest until he found a house. "Well this house is a bit small for a human." Alex walked around only to find there was something stuck in a hole. "What's this?" Alex then got nearer to it and a voice came. "Oh bother, if someone is out there, could you please help me out of here." Alex was a little surprised, but then shrugged. "Ok, I guess." Alex then grabbed the things legs and began to pull until it came out by flying into the air, it then landed and turned out to be a bear in a red t-shirt."Oh thank you ever so kindly." "Umm sure, don't mention it." "Have you by any chance seen my friend Sora, I was sure that he would come and help me like before." "Sora? Sorry, I don't know anyone by that name. So are you saying this has happened before?" Alex said kneeling down to him. "Yes and all of my friends helped me the last time, but it seems they've all gone somewhere." The bear said a little sad. "Well I can help you if you want?" "Oh thank you, so what is your name?" "My name is Alex, what's yours?" "My name is Mr. Sanderson (Yeah I know his real name), but everyone calls me Pooh." "Ok Pooh, let's go find your friends and I gotta find my firend as well." Alex said rubbing the back of his neck with a smile on his face.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa noded and stood up. "So,you need help getting somewhere?"Tessa asks. "Not really,but we did lost our friends."Tigger says. "Hm,ok. Well. This place is dangerous now,so you gusy can stick with me while we find the problem to all of this."Tessa says. They nod and follow her. But then Tigger stops and bounces upfront of her yellling 'whoo-hoo!'. "Let's find Pooh and the rest!"Tigger says. "Hey,wait up."Tessa says. She picked up Piglet and satted him on her hand. "Hang on."Tessa says as she ranned off after Tigger.

[Oblivion 22 162]

"So Pooh, what were you doing stuck in that hole?" "Well I went to see my friend Rabbit, but she wasn't home. I then found some pots of hunny and I was sure that Rabbit wouldn't mind, so I had some. But when I tried to crawl back out the hole got smaller somehow." Alex rolled his eyes and thought. (Somehow, I saw this coming.) Alex then looked at Pooh. "Where do you think your friends are Pooh?" "I'm not sure, everyone was gone when I checked there houses." Pooh said a little sad. "Ah don't worry Pooh, we'll find them." Alex said thinking positive, Pooh then began to cheer up. "Thank you Alex, you sound a lot like Sora aswell." He said as he laughed a little. "What's this Sora guy like? Is he still here?" "No, the last time I saw him he said that he was looking for his friends." Alex was a little surprised sinse that was exactly what he was doing now. "But I'm not sad that Sora's gone, he told me that he was right here, forever and ever." Pooh said holding his hand to where his heart would be. "He sounds like a great guy, wish I coulda met him." Alex said as he kept walking with Pooh by his side.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa walked around with the two. "So,who are your friends?"Tessa asks. "Well,there's Pooh. He's my bestest friend."Piglet says. "I see that's nice."Tessa says. Then she could sense a massive amount of darkness. It sended shivers down her spine. "We better find your friends soon..."Tessa says. "(Something's in this book...and it's very very dark...I don't like the feeling of it at all...)"Tessa thinks as she felt that she was being watched by something or someone.

[Corrupted keyblade 64]

"Oh cool well I've never felt it it I've also never been in that much danger or felt your danger so maybe laqter on down the line I'll feel it but thanks" Allen said as he summoned a darkside to pick up the heavier things he then stood up and started using he tentecalse to build the buildings the he started to paint the buildings all different colors.

[coolfresh1224 10]

"yes indeed." Juan said as he played another tune and houses began to form. he considered to himself the he had only seen the place that he was born while he was very young and yet he knew within himself that the place looked the way it should. as he played he called out to tristan "hey tristan how did you endd up in therealm of darkness?"

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex looked around while Pooh followed him. "I wonder where Tessa is?" "Alex, who's Tessa?" Alex looked down at him with a big smile as he scratched behind his head with his eyes shut. "She's a real good friend of mine." Alex then looked back at where he was going. "Knowing her, she's probably found some of your friends Pooh." Alex said with a smile. "Oh, that is very good. I'll thank her when I see her." Alex then saw Tessa walking down a path way with two other stuffed looking animals. "Hey, there they are." Alex then began to run waving his hand. "HEY!!!" Tessa then turned to see Alex with Pooh waddling along behind him. Alex then arrived next to Tessa. "It's good to see your ok." Alex then turned back to Pooh. "Are these friends of yours Pooh?"

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tigger came bouncing by and tackled him down and landed ontop of him. "We;ve been looking for you Pooh."Tiger says. Piglet got off Alexia's head and started to run towards Pooh. "Pooh!You're ok!"Piglet says. Tessa smiled and then walked towards Alex and stared at him. "We need to defeat this darkness within this book. I have the strangest feeling...I feel like if there's something hiding and is watching our every move,we need to defeat whatever that is."Tessa says.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex looked around, either his sense of enemy presence was bad or there was no one around but them. "I don't feel like I'm being watched and I don't sense anyone other than us here. Just give me a sec and I'll try it a different way." Alex closed his eyes and tried to consentrate. (If I focus then I might be able to hear them.) Alex then blocked out all other noises and it was as if he was in a meditated state. Alex was imagining himself stood on a vast amount of water and the water would vibrate whenever he would hear something and this was taking a lot of Alex's consentration.

[Stardustblade358 806]

Tessa looked around and could feel the darkness just getting thicker and thicker. She turned to Alex and saw something forming behind him. “Alex!”Tessa says as she grabbed his arm and pulled him back before a foot could squash him. They saw that it was this huge giant…bee…corrupted by the darkness. “Ew.”Tessa says as she summoned her blade. She looks at the thing and then looks back. "Let's defeat this thing."Tessa says.

[Oblivion 22 162]

Alex stared at the giant bee that was infront of them. "Aww man, do we really have to fight this thing? I looks so weak that I could defeat it with a single kick." Alex said feeling a little bad for the thing. "Ahh well, I guess it can't be helped." Alex summoned his keyblade and got ready to fight. "You ready Tessa?" She nooded. "Ok, let's get him." Alex then rushed at the bee from the side, scoring a direct hit at it's body. "So far so good."
