*There was an eruption of green fire, and with it, Ikazuchi was flung onto the floor.*
Edward
*Ikazuchi landed on the floor unceremoniously. They'd been had... Was it all a trap?*

*He pushed himself up off the ground and pat green flames out that were in places on his body.*
Natosha
"How wonderful for you to join us, Guardian. I believe you know why you're here."
Johnnie
"**Yeah... Yeah...**" 

"Suke" Would say as she arrived from the Realm of Darkness, carrying Kingdom Key D on her shoulder and a proud smirk on her face. 

"**So this is the 'friend' of this Heartless is it? You boy, shall die so this pathethic excuse for a heart this Heartless has can break and my domination over this body is complete. No hard feelings...**" 

A small laugh escaped her as she got ready to fight, swinging the blade downwards. 

"**Make sure to last longer than Oswald and Xion... It was boring toying with them for so long...**"
Donald
Meanwhile someone else was standing nearby, only watching the inevitable happen with a hard frown on her face. This was Sunset Shimmer with a completely new outfit. Sunset stared at Ika without moving.

"This is gonna be a wonderful sight watching you get what you deserve after you and your gang of friends thought it was funny to outright kill me... Guess Twilight's info really helps now that i think of it..."

Sunset said as her frown moved to a creepy grin.
Edward
"Suke? Sunset? What are you saying...? C-come on, this isn't the time to joke around."

*Ikazuchi nervously laughed.*

"Maleficent is right there! If we work together, the three of us can stop her here and now!"
Natosha
"Kill him, Heartless."

*Maleficent's eyes glowed green as she waved a hand forward, commanding whatever entity was in control of Suke's body to attack Ika.*
Johnnie
"**This 'Suke' is no more...**" 

She would say and tap the side of her head and grinned. 

"**Their little excursion to the Realm of Darkness lead them to pick up this. This girl is mine, body and soul.**" 

"Suke" Would say and rushed towards Suke, raising her Keyblade high into the air and swinging downwards, trying to test how much power she'd have to put in to fully finish the job. 

`Basic Attack: 325`
Donald
"You think i didnt know what you and Modgink said Ika...? You can thank your 'Friend' Twilight for blurting it to me when i assume she ran from that tower after me... I only assume but i did in fact saw her crying for god sakes... But that doesnt matter..."

Sunset said staring at the fight without interfering at all. She balled her fists tightly and glared at Ika

"What matter is that your distrust in me brought you to this moment... You wanted me dead after the vow i placed upon your group... Should this new ally of ours fails... I'LL step in but i doubt it will be necessary judging by our ally's potential..."

Sunset mentioned to Ika but looked at Maleficent and gave a wink, giving Maleficent a sign of Sunset not wanting interfere at all despite what she just said. Sunset was only here to watch, not fight.
Edward
"You're joking right?! I told Rainbow and your friends that you **Didn't** Have to be killed, but that its *Their* Responsibility to get a grip on you!"

*Ikazuchi shook his head. He had to tune her out. Her words were only a mere distraction. Suke is the one he had to worry about.*

"No, Suke would never lose to the likes of you!" 

*Ikazuchi held his arms above his head to block and formed a small shield out of wind using aero. Ika's magic output was way weaker due to not having his keyblades so Suke's attack still broke through his rudimentary wind shield, causing him to still take the strike from the basic attack.*

"Come on.. Ngh... I know you're in there! Fight it, Suke!"

`Aero (Defensive): Magic = 130. HP = 4075 -3880. AP: 190 -175`
Johnnie
"**Cute... Using her own spells against her...**"

Suke would say as her Keyblade came down, striking Ika but not to the amount that she had liked. Since Ika wasn't fighting back, she would wave her hand, creating a tornado of darkness infused air to slice him to pieces. 

"**You can call out all you want but your wasting your breath. Though if you fail to fight back, I'll simply start breaking things and make your dear friend watch helplessly. If you really don't believe me... Do you feel that useless Heartless' heart anywhere? I bet you can't.**" 

`Dark Aeroga: 1,000`
Donald
"Oh please!! Like i can believe someone now that i know who to not trust! Its your fault this is happening to you right now! YOUR the reason your pathetic excuse of a 'friend' fighting you right here and now because you let some woman command her to go somewhere dangerous even if she is the same species as those creatures... You led her into some place that did this to her... You lost her due to Modgnik's own orders Ika... All because you lot wanted to seal some stupid door up without realizing the huge concequences... Let this one bit of critical intel soak for a moment and then you'll know how i am feeling... And im feeling..."

Sunset's black aura flared but she remained in her spot of the fiery arena.

"LIKE IVE BEEN BETRAYED BY YOU FOOLS..."
Edward
*Ikazuchi did not respond. Numerous cuts appeared across his body from Suke's dark tornado. He winced from the pain and closed his eyes, as he fell to his knees.*


`HP = 3880 -2880` 

*This had to be a dream... A nightmare? The pain was all too real for him. His mind went numb as he thought of the Islands... Of home. His first sparring sessions with Master and Xerx, And to the first time he felt true pain, with Kiki's attack. The unversed who destroyed his home and the heartless and dark hearts that took the keyhole.*

*Tears streamed down Ikazuchi's face as he [extended a hand, reminiscent of the past.]( A desperate plea to her heart, maybe?*

"Hey... Suke... Talk to me... Are you alright? I'm not here to hurt you..."

*His vision blurred from the tears. He attempted to slowly push himself up off the ground as he kept eye contact with Suke.*
Johnnie
"**Hmph... You are tougher than I gave you credit for...**"

'Suke' would say and see that Ikazuchi was still alive, still pleading no less for a Heartless. A look of disgust flashed across her face, she thought he was supposed to be strong but this was getting sad. 

"**I don't know how fail to grasp this situation... That *Heartless* You know is gone. You should thank me... I got rid of it before it fed on you... That's the nature of Heartless-**"

Raising Kingdom Key D in the air, she pointed it at Ikazuchi once more and gathered magic at the tip of the weapon preparing to cast Dark Firaza and blow him away point blank. That was when the spell began to weaken and vanish, with Suke grabbing her own chest and nearly dropping her Keyblade while taking a few steps back from Ikazuchi.

"**Ugh... Damn... That Heartless isn't fully repressed... You think a weak being like yourself can fight against my domination...**"
Donald
"What the... Something isnt right...! Maleficent... Should i step in to hopefully get him?!"

Sunset looked in concern and panic at Maleficent and kept her eyes on 'Suke' and Ika to make sure nothing bad happened to their favor. Her dark auras began to show up again in her anger

"Why that little..."
Natosha
"Hold, Sunset. There is more than one objective here."

*Maleficent would say as she narrowed her eyes at Suke.*

"For Suke to be totally suppressed, our dark benefactor must learn where all of the heartless's emotions are held within her heart to totally and completely crush them. The boy doesn't realize that his pleas to her heart is only going to be her undoing."
Edward
"Don't you **Dare** Call Suke weak! She is more than just another heartless! She is my best friend! She's been there since the start of my journey... If you think you've won against her, then you've already lost!"

*Ika felt the light welling from inside his heart. His hand shimmered as the light almost took the form of a bow.*

"Suke! You're stronger than them! I believe in you!"
Johnnie
Despire being hunched over, Suke would hold out her Keyblade pointing it at Sunset. 

"**Stay out of this you crimson clown! Interfere with my fight and I shall cut you down with this fool...**" 

She took a heavy breath and moved some of her silver hair out of the way of her face before getting into a fencer like stance with Kingdom Key D and glaring at Ikazuchi.

"**I see... So your life won't get you to act... Very well...**" 

With that, she would lazily swing her Keyblade from side to side before going in for a thrust to try and stab Ikazuchi in the chest to send him flying.

"**If you won't fight back, I shall slice up this body while you watch with that infuriating inaction. I shall break the Heart of this Heartless and you'll be the key one way or the other.**" 

`Basic Attack: 325`
Donald
Sunset's dark aura would of calmed down, and took a breath of relief before smirking.

"What was that about your friend being strong Ika? Because something tells me everyone in this place knows the truth... Your friend is gone... Your friend is **Weak**... Just how weak-minded you lot are when you thought it was funny to try and get rid of me..."

Sunset smiled before it turned into a evil grin. That was when a green shine was shown for only two seconds if Ika caught on during that limited time frame. Something wasnt adding up with Sunset's behavior.

"...But then again, who knows... You may end up having no choice but striking down the body of your friend... Who i need to remind you is already **Gone**... Face it Ika, you will have no choice soon...

Sunset then laughed before calming down after ten seconds of her laughter and turning her head slightly at Maleficent.

"Mother, after this little entertainment is done for me, what do you want to do to celebrate if this works out...?"
Natosha
"After we're done here the goal I- we've been working towards will finally be within reach. All of the princesses will be ours. There will be time to celebrate after it is all said and done, child."
Edward
*Ikazuchi closed his eyes and focused his energy. The light he could feel welling up inside him was at its peak. He held his hand out like he normally would when summoning a keyblade. The sparkles of light around his hand coalesced into the shape of a bow. But not just any bow, it was Fiora's bow.*

"I refuse! I refuse to be a pawn in your game any longer! I refuse to believe Suke would lose to the likes of you! We made a promise! We would restore Destiny Islands together, and get our home back!"

*He opened his eyes and drew the golden bowstring back, but didnt fire an arrow. Wind formed around the end of the arrow and bow to form another aero shield to block the incoming attack.*

` Aero (Defensive): Magic = 368. AP = 175 -160. `
Natosha
"Tch. He wasn't supposed to have any other weapons. Jafar must have been narrow-minded in his plot against the brats. Never send a snake to do a dragon's job."

*Maleficent turned away from the ring of green fire and opened a dark corridor.*

"Come Sunset, we shall leave for hollow bastion now. The boy being armed was not a part of the deal. We cannot stay if he can muster his true strength."
Edward
[It was go-time.](<
Johnnie
"**Good, keep fighting! Those are the best kinds of people when their will is broken!**" 

"Suke" Laughed as she went to close the distance in order to stab Ikazuchi. She did raise an eyebrow when he pulled out what looked like an old worn out sword sheathe. Her grin deepened when her bullet of darkness landed as well as her stabbing him with enough force to send the poor boy flying. 

Coming to a screeching halt, she put a hand to her ear, enjoying the sounds of what appeared to be bone breaking coming from Ikazuchi. 

"**Ah... Always such a refreshing sound. I can feel your friends 'heart' screaming for me to stop... That she'll do *Anything* If I leave you alone. What are you-**"

She taunted further before getting conked on the head by the to her, surprise shot of a lightning charged scabbard hitting her in the forehead. "Suke" Took a couple steps back in both pain in surprise that was a thing that actually happened just now in time to hold her hand out in front of his next attack. A hexagonal barrier of darkness formed around Suke, protecting her from a majority of the blast and the follow up arrow shot just fine. Bringing the bloody Kingdom Key D to her mouth, she licked some of the blood off of the weapon before spinning it by the handle, ending it with pointing the blade up to the air. 

"**Well... Aren't you full of clever ideas... Though I need to end this... It's getting a little hard to move.**" 

"Suke" Would exclaim, her movements beginning to become more jerky than fluid at this point but sufficed enough for what she wanted to do. Darkness swirled around around the Keyblade until it cumulated at the tip, firing into the air. But it wasn't aimed at Ika whatsoever, it was aimed at the Sun! The area grew dimmer and dimmer... Light itself being sucked away until it was pure night despite being in a literal desert. The green flames that surrounded their battlefields no longer gave off any light. Ika would recognize the ambiance the being in front o
Edward
*Ikazuchi drew the bowstring back once more, but felt his movements become lethargic and weak... Too weak even. He felt his head spinning as his vision doubled and blurred. He watched as the doubled vision of "Suke" Taunted him. His arms gave out, as he let go of Fiora's bow and his old leather sheath. Light's Whisper collapsed and shimmered away as hundreds of specs of light.*

"No! No... Don't leave me..."

*He grasped at the particles of light, trying to muster the strength to resummon the bow, but the overwhelming presence of darkness shut out his connection to Fiora. It reminded him of how he lost everything. Was he not meant to win? From the very beginning it had been loss after loss. Destiny Islands fell because he was too weak. Hollow Bastion fell because he was too weak. Toy Box fell because he was too weak. He will fall because he is too weak. It was right at this moment that Ikazuchi was blasted with the Mega Destruction Dark Ball of Darkness and Destruction™ and felt it pierce his very core.*

[HP: 1328 -0](<

*Ikazuchi touched his wound and gasped from the pain. He held his blood-soaked hands up and looked at his palms. He looked down at the massive wound he just received and then back up to "Suke".*

"This is not your— your fault... Promise me— you won't blame yourself for this— Please... Suke..."

*He fell to his knees shakily, looking up at Suke. With his last breath he smiled at Suke. Not the impostor controlling her body, but the real Suke. He didn't care what the fake had to say; he knew, with his dying thoughts... That she—*

**Thud.**
Johnnie
"Suke" Smirked and lowered her Keyblade, seeing Ikazuchi fall to her attack. That was when...*Something* Broke inside of the real Suke. 

"**That wasn't so hard now was it...**"

The fake would say and look over at the giant red storm going on in  With another smile on her face she proceeded to walk over there, dragging Kingdom Key D on the ground and whistling. 

"**I suppose I should help out that clown and kill everyone else there...**" 



A gunshot went off and Suke fell to one knee. She looked and saw that the wound was self inflicted and appared to have shot herself in the leg. Beyond that, she was having even harder time moving around. 

"**Tch... Why are you *Still* Fighting back!? Such a nuisance..**" 

Darkness surrounded Suke once more as she vanished, leaving inside of a Dark Corridor for Hollow Bastion.
Edward
*Ikazuchi felt a turmoil within his heart. It felt like he was being ripped apart. He held on for life itself, as he felt every shred of negative emotions leave his heart. There was... Nothing? Yet... Everything. In this moment of clarity, Ikazuchi has finally felt like he was... No.*

*No, no, no. This was very wrong. He wasn't going to die here. How could this be the end? Death by his best friend? He refused to let it be that way. Determination welled within his heart just before it separated from his body, as a shimmer from within his pocket flashed.*

*Ikazuchi opened his eyes as the green flames died down. He could hardly move... He pushed himself to sit up and dragged himself over to rest against a nearby wall. He leaned his head back and looked up at the sky. He was... Alive? No... Not fully. That brush with death took something from him. He felt nothing about this fight. No anger... No sadness. He closed his eyes, he was so tired...*
