Light Shines Brightest in the Deepest Darkness

[Ms Chieve]

Ms Chieve feels confusion ...wait that's not it, she feels uncertainty. Why would a goodie like one of these save her from a attack of what looks like creatures from a video game. Standing up, she sees that the Light guardian has also arrived..." I...I'm fine. You say holy magic seems to keep these things in check?" she asks hearing her reply to Light...

[Raleigh]

How dull. I would have learned more probing the mind of a cockroach. *Steps away and simply casts a banishment spell on the remaining captured shadow heartless things.* I suppose I could go eat some lunch. This should be over quickly I think. *Begins to head off to a nearby cafe to see if they have any doughnuts.*

[Bigmouthstrikes]

"Alright then." Light responded.

Spiking the bo into the ground it began to shift and change, flattening out into a heavy looking broadsword. His silk clothing shifted into a heavy suit of armor. His hair shortened. In a few moments, he transformed into a paladin and wielded the sword as though it weighed nothing.

"Let's get going." Light said. "We've got worked to do."

[shinryou]

Kazuya hits the mugger of the head with a mug, "Irony win!"

[Blaze]

"They're vulnerable to energy attacks!" the commander shouts. Lily nods, and while Pleasance and Alex switch over to laser weapons, the SIBLING discards her sidearm, instead clapping her hands together, before spreading them apart again... the hallway now illuminated by flickering arcs of electricity. "Let's see how they like this!" she shouts, sending a massive shockwave of electricity ripping down the length of the corridor, towards the hatchway at the end.

Commander Pleasance and Alex, meanwhile, start firing their lasers at the approaching shadows, trying to give Lily some cover while she attacks!

The shadows are beaten back, their numbers thinned by the barrage of energy weapons...

But suddenly, several of them leap out from behind them, trying to dogpile Pleasence!

The woman takes a hit or two, and takes them like a pro, barely flinching. Then she performs the fabled Spin Attack! Wait, that isn't a keyblade move? Well she sure is using it. She does about a 270-degree spin, ending up facing the direction that used to be backwards, and bashes more heartless in front of her. The keyblade has a small chance at least of freezing its victims in temporary chunks of ice when it hits. Meanwhile, three more light-shots like the one she came in come down, and their occupants are soon revealed to be Dusks, the Nobody mooks! They start sliding around, dodging and attacking the Shadow girls to the best of their ability. They're fast but they aren't terribly strong, and against such numbers they probably won't last too long...

And yet they keep coming! They are now backed up by a different kind that seem to be Neoshadows. THey attempt to leap on the Keyblade Weilder and pin her!

As for the Dusks, they indeed, don't last long! The Shadows rip into them with surprising ferocity, their cute faces twisted into hate-filled expressions.

The girls back away from Yuu's swings, seemingly afraid of the weapon.

The Heartless seems stunned, looking up at Konoko like it was uncertain what to do. The others move on regardless

"Yeah, you'll leave me alone now, won't you?" Yuu asked, smirking. "Just back off and I won't kill you things, okay?" He continued pointing it at them as he walked towards them.

Konoko holds out her hand to the sneaking Heartless, which turns into shadow and darkness itself and lashes out at them, absorbing them into it, all the while as she gives the lone Heartless a smile. "As I said, I wouldn't recommend any of you trying to infiltrate my home. Trying to do so will only get you all consumed. Now, are you going to be a good little creature and behave around here, or am I going to have to do something?"

As Yuu says this... the weapon vanishes in a flash of light! The Heartless blink before seeming to smirk, getting closer once more.

The one remaining Heartless stares at Konoko before baking like a tree! That is, getting the hell out of there.

Ms Chieve feels confusion ...wait that's not it, she feels uncertainty. Why would a goodie like one of these save her from a attack of what looks like creatures from a video game. Standing up, she sees that the Light guardian has also arrived..." I...I'm fine. You say holy magic seems to keep these things in check?" she asks hearing her reply to Light...

"Indeed, that does seem to be the case. My attacks were much more effective when I channeled holy power into them." Jean says, twirling the rosaries.

"Now, will you be all right?"

How dull. I would have learned more probing the mind of a cockroach. *Steps away and simply casts a banishment spell on the remaining captured shadow heartless things.* I suppose I could go eat some lunch. This should be over quickly I think. *Begins to head off to a nearby cafe to see if they have any doughnuts.*

As he heads there, the Muffinville Neoshadows run by. These seem much more intelligent than the others...

"Alright then." Light responded.

Spiking the bo into the ground it began to shift and change, flattening out into a heavy looking broadsword. His silk clothing shifted into a heavy suit of armor. His hair shortened. In a few moments, he transformed into a paladin and wielded the sword as though it weighed nothing.

"Let's get going." Light said. "We've got worked to do."

Jean blinks before nodding.

"Right! We shall clense Muffinville of these beings!"

Kazuya hits the mugger of the head with a mug, "Irony win!"

The mugger staggers, in too much pain to appreciate the irony.

Kazuya's shadow starts writhing independent of him, multiple pairs of yellow eyes appearing in it...

[Keyblade Wielder]

The woman faces the leaping assailants and unleashes the Sonic Rave, the first strike timed to smack them like a cue stick hits a bunch of billiard balls (but in three-dimensional space instead of on a flat surface), and the next several raves aimed to smash through as many as possible. It almost seems like the Keyblade is the one performing this move, and she just happens to have a very firm grip on it at the time. After this, she uses any holes available, and jumping off the heads of enemies when necessary, to reach a nearby wall and stand with her back against it, taking a short breather. "Man...They're endless. You wanna play, kid?" she says, letting go of the Keyblade. Rather than disappearing this time, it takes a few swings of its own at the encroaching heartless, then turns around so the end of it is facing the crystal on the back-palm of her gauntlet. It fires the same kind of beam a Keyblade usually does when locking or unlocking things, causing a small eruption of blindingly bright energy to surround her and the Keyblade both. The light fades slowly, but soon there are two silhouettes visible within it...

[KonokoHasano]

As Yuu says this... the weapon vanishes in a flash of light! The Heartless blink before seeming to smirk, getting closer once more.

The one remaining Heartless stares at Konoko before baking like a tree! That is, getting the hell out of there.

"H-- Hey, wait, why did it vanish?! What did I do?" Looking up, he stares at the Heartless and gives a weak chuckle, right before lifting off into the air via a jetpack. "This is stupid! Why did the thing have to blink away?! I just wanted to get those things to leave."


Konoko shrugged at that, figuring it was best to let it leave and continue protecting her home.

[shinryou]

Kazuya draws one of his deviant blades out, "I know you're there..." he said, addressing the multiple beings in his shadow.

[Raleigh]

*Tosses out a spear attached to a chain at one of the neoshadows intent on reeling it back in like a speared fish.* Get over here so I can ask you some questions. Namely why you look like Zats sans the amusing musical note scythe.

[Bigmouthstrikes]

"Absolutely." Light answered, drawing some holy energy into his sword. "Lead the way, Jean."

[Ms Chieve]

Ms Chieve silvers a bit at the raw display of holy magic from Lance and Jean. She unholsters a black metal pistol reminiscent of a blaster from star wars and clicks the power safety..."Right." she says nervously, wondering what she has gotten into and why her master hasn't done anything about her yet...

Continuing to monitor the scene, the hidden one conceders the  holy magics angle bs the tech used by the CTC forces..."maybe a white and dark energies weapon is called for. Too bad white energies come from certain sources. So who would make a good battery for this kind of weapon?" they say in a contiplitve  voice to themselves...

[Jello Shot Mischa]

The shadows are beaten back, their numbers thinned by the barrage of energy weapons...

But suddenly, several of them leap out from behind them, trying to dogpile Pleasence!

As Lily's blast momentarily clears the corridor of the creatures, the trio makes a dash for the hatchway... but the shadow creatures are persistent!

"Commander!" Alex shouts out, his laser blazing as he fires into the mob of entities that phase through the walls from behind, but it isn't enough to hold them back, as a couple of the creatures get through to grab ahold of the commander!

"Let go, damn it," Pleasance mutters, firing her own laser point-blank into one of the shadowy creatures.

[Blaze]

The light fades slowly, but soon there are two silhouettes visible within it...

And the Heartless are destroyed by the light, leaving the Keyblade weilder and Utsuko all alone.

"H-- Hey, wait, why did it vanish?! What did I do?" Looking up, he stares at the Heartless and gives a weak chuckle, right before lifting off into the air via a jetpack. "This is stupid! Why did the thing have to blink away?! I just wanted to get those things to leave."


Konoko shrugged at that, figuring it was best to let it leave and continue protecting her home.

As Yuu bravely flies away, he may see some of the girls attacking a bunch of schoolkids!

Konoko may notice that her house is being beseiged! The Heartless are patrolling around it, but not entering it's grounds.

Kazuya draws one of his deviant blades out, "I know you're there..." he said, addressing the multiple beings in his shadow.

The shadows emerge as the Heartless girls as well as the catgirl...

And they all rush and attack the mugger!

*Tosses out a spear attached to a chain at one of the neoshadows intent on reeling it back in like a speared fish.* Get over here so I can ask you some questions. Namely why you look like Zats sans the amusing musical note scythe.

[They look like that because that pic is the closest thing I could find to a humanoid Neoshadow. ]

The Neoshadow struggles, bites and kicks!

"He... Hearts..."

"Absolutely." Light answered, drawing some holy energy into his sword. "Lead the way, Jean."

Ms Chieve silvers a bit at the raw display of holy magic from Lance and Jean.

Too bad white energies come from certain sources. So who would make a good battery for this kind of weapon?" they say in a contiplitve voice to themselves...

Jean beams and channels some holy power into her rosaries before marching off!

Just as several Shadows round the corner and rush at the three!

As Lily's blast momentarily clears the corridor of the creatures, the trio makes a dash for the hatchway... but the shadow creatures are persistent!

"Commander!" Alex shouts out, his laser blazing as he fires into the mob of entities that phase through the walls from behind, but it isn't enough to hold them back, as a couple of the creatures get through to grab ahold of the commander!

"Let go, damn it," Pleasance mutters, firing her own laser point-blank into one of the shadowy creatures.

The creatures flinch form the lasers Pleasence fires, but continue to hold her as several more leap on!

From Alex and Lily's view, it looks like Pleasence has been ensnared in a black orb. One that is slowly sinking into the ground...

[shinryou]

Kazuya just shrugs and lets them attack the mugger.

[Raleigh]

Hearts? Well they are tasty but is that all you are here for? Care to tell me more? *Makes no move to drag the spear out.*
