Lost in the Shadow of Light

Slowly feeling returned to my body. Something felt off. I could still feel my wings and horns so I know I am still physically the same. But still something is missing. Something important.

“Wake up Guardian. We need to get moving. The fallen will be here soon.” a synthetic voice said.

I groaned as I opened my eyes and slowly started to look around, “Where are we?”

“We are in the ruins of old Russia. The Cosmodrome is on the other side of that structure ahead of us. I’ll answer the rest of your questions when we get to the Tower.” I looked around and jumped back when I saw the floating object in front of me, “Lets go. It is not safe here anymore.” I looked myself over and saw that I was now wearing armor and had a helmet.

I started to run down a path between rusted cars and ran inside the large structure, “We need to find a weapon.” the floating thing said. I smirked as I tried to summon Two Become One, but nothing happened. I then tried to summon Light’s Burden and still nothing. Shit. Zeke must have done something to my heart when he hit me. I thought. I ran through the halls of the building and I found an old assault rifle.

“I guess this will do.” I mumbled as I moved carefully around a corner. I quickly moved back behind the corner when a bullet flew past my head. I readied my gun and aimed around the corner and quickly picked off the fallen.

“That went better than expected.”

“What are you?” I asked.

“I could ask you the same thing. I have never seen anything like you before. Even though you barely have any connection to the light, the Traveler wanted me to choose you. I could feel it. I am a Ghost by the way.”

“I have a lot of questions but they can wait till we are out of here.” I responded before moving forward. After a little while everything got dark.

“Hold on. Let me get the lights.” the Ghost flew off and after a few moments the lights came on and it returned to me, “Let's keep moving. There is an old jump ship not to far from here. We will need that to get to the tower.”

I made my way through the rest of the building and found myself outside, “Where from here?”

“The building that is having things dropped in front of it.”

“Let's do it.” I ran at the fallen and jumped on some boxes to launch myself above them. While in the air I took out some of the smaller enemies. I then threw a fiery grenade and it exploded taking out everyone except the one with a shield, “I think that is cheating.” I joked before having to dodge it bringing its gun down on me. It roared in a sense before charging me. I lowered myself. Once it was close enough I grabbed its gun and flipped it over my shoulder, “Game over.” I emptied the remainder of the guns clip into it before continuing.

“The only hunter I've seen fight like that was Cayde.”

Ignoring the Ghost I continued into the building and quickly dispersed the fallen and finally found the jump ship. I let the Ghost scan the ship and fought off waves of fallen, “Please tell me that it is almost ready.” I said as I shot another fallen. I was almost out of ammo.

“Almost….” the ship's engines fire up and it started to float, “Done. Come on let's get outta here.”

“Don't have to tell me twice.” I responded before throwing a grenade to slow the fallen and ran towards the ship. Suddenly I was teleported into the ship, “Get us out of here.” I ordered before the ship shot up into orbit, “So where to now?”

“See that giant sphere. Go there.”

I moved the ship so that it was headed in that direction, “What happened to the world?”

“The forces of darkness happened. Humanity was in a golden age of science and then suddenly everything collapsed. As a last attempt to preserve its light, the Traveler created Ghost. He sent us to find those who could use his light as a weapon against the darkness, but what I don't know is why he sent me after you. You are majority darkness. I can feel it on you.”

“I was capable of using a weapon that could vanquish any darkness if you knew how to use it. But something went wrong and a friend of mine turned and attacked me. You woke me up. Since then I have not been able to summon my weapon.” I explained as I flew through a thunderstorm. Suddenly the clouds parted and I could see a city. It was beautiful.

“Welcome to the Tower guardian.”

“Where do I land?”

“I'll take care of that after I drop you off in the plaza.” almost immediately I was teleported out the ship. I looked around and saw what I could only assume were other guardians. Slowly I walked away from the ledge that was behind me, "This way." my Ghost said as he flew off to the left. I silently followed him.

I have been waiting for you Ōkami. You are the only one capable of freeing me and returning this world to light. I can only fight for a little longer. a voice said in my head causing me to look around Worry not. You are not crazy. I am what the people of this world call the Traveler. I am not as dormant as they think. Now go and see the Speaker. He will point you in the right direction to reclaiming that which you lost.

I continued walking and stopped when I entered a room with a bowl shape on the floor and a view overlooking the Traveler, "Quite the sight isn't it?" a voice said next to me. I turned and saw a man in what I could only describe as white robes, "There was a time, when we were much more powerful. But that was long ago." he points at the Traveler, "Until it wakes, and finds its voice. I am the one who speaks for the Traveler. You must have no end of questions guardian. In its dying breathe, the Traveler created the Ghosts, to seek out and find those who could use its light as a weapon. Guardians to protect us."

"What happened to it?" I asked.

"I could tell you of the great battle centuries ago. How the Traveler was crippled. I could tell you of the power of the darkness. its ancient enemies. There are countless tales told throughout the city to frighten children. Lately those tales have stopped. Now the children are frightened anyway. The darkness is coming back. We will not survive it this time."

"Its armies surround us. The fallen are just the beginning." Ghost added.

"What can I do?" I asked.

"You must push back the darkness. Guardians are fighting on Earth and beyond. Join them. Your Ghost will help you. I can only hope he chose correctly." the Speaker said before walking off.

I turned and started walking out of the room, "I did. I am certain of it." my Ghost said.

Lost

Luna was sitting in the throne room of Pevensey Castle. She kept fidgeting in her throne on the account that she was now very obviously pregnant. Suddenly a DTL opened in the middle of the room and she went to stand up but was stopped by one of the guards. Nine of the ten Guardians walked out and right before it closed Midnight walked through with bloodshot eyes, “I see you ten, but where persay is Ōkami?” at the mention of his name Midnight started to cry. Drem stepped forward.

“He forced us to leave him. He said that if he didn’t come home that it was our job to defend the kingdom.” he said with a slight bow.

“Midnight come here.” Luna said in the most caring tone possible. The sobbing mare slowly drug herself to Luna, “Please tell me, who he stayed to fight?”

“It was Zeke. Something happened and he went crazy.” she cried as she held onto Luna.

Suddenly another DTL opened and God walked through it, “Something terrible has happened.”

“Well no shit. Now unless you can be useful leave.” Luna snapped.

“I can. He just has to pass this test. If you find him, in your adventures do not interfere or he will never pass. This will be considered his Mark of Mastery. Quite possibly one of the most interesting ones I have seen. As to why Zeke attacked him. That was not Zeke, at least mentally. It was a being called a Psychopath. Sadly that is all I really know at the moment.” he looked at Luna, “Question did he by any chance join the family of a man named Cript?” Luna and Midnight nodded, “That explains the pregnancy, Just so you know there is a lot of babies in there and you can birth them whenever you want.”

“How do you know that?” Luna asked.

“Because I have been keeping tabs on everyone I brought to this realm. He was not the only one to accept the deal from Cript. I am actually surprised you didn’t know that already. Cript is normally good about that warning. By the way what is his mom?”

“His mom is a Succubus.” Midnight said just loud enough to be heard.

“Ok. So he should be fine so long as everyone on that world does not try to have sex with him.” God said nonchalantly, “I don’t think things are to bad on the world he is on.”

*****

“FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!” I yelled as I ran away from the Fallen Devil Archon. I jumped as the rounds from his massive gun impacted the ground I was standing on.

*****

“So you are saying you have an idea of where Ōkami is but you won’t tell us?” Luna said in a monotone voice.

“Pretty much. This test is crucial to his progression. While he has reached the point of Two Become One’s last wielder, he can grow so much more. But he has to do this on his own. He has to earn the next stage of his power. Yes he got a boost from Cript, but he is far from his full potential.” God looked at Luna and Midnight, both of which had their keyblades out.

“Either show us or face the wrath of a pregnant mare you asshat.” Luna growled.

“No.” before Oblivion could hit him, God stepped into a DTL and was gone.

“I really hate him.” Luna grumbled as she returned her focus to the nine thestrals before her, “You are to each take teams of at least twenty and search for him. The only one who is exempt from this is Midnight. She will be here with me and Runa helping us deal with our pregnancies. Seresutia will be taking her place and you nine will report to her. Do you understand?”

“Yes Mistress. Everyone of them except Midnight responded.

“Do as I said and find him. Do not interfere as the asshat said, but I want to know what world he is on. So that once I am able to, I can go and strangle him myself for being an idiot.”

“Yes, Mistress.” the nine said in unison as they saluted her before leaving the room.

“Midnight, please be a dear and help me to our room. My back is killing me.”

“Ok.” she responded as she helped Luna out of her throne, “Do you think that they will find him?”

“I hope so. but until then we have to keep our country going. Currently we are the only nation capable of fighting the heartless and any other forces of darkness. Since Zeke didn’t distribute Keyblades before he got taken over.” as we talked many thestrals, changelings, and humans looked at us in shock. It seems that the news of Ōkami’s disappearance has traveled fast, “I know that Ōkami didn’t want the changelings joining the Lunar-Key Guard, but at this moment we need all the help we can get. When you have a chance after I am settled, find Crystal and send her to me. You can distribute keyblades and train the changelings. I will handle the humans.”

“As you wish Luna, but what about your pregnancy? You can barely walk.” Midnight asked.

“As God said I can birth them when I want. I will have Runa get the BoS and the Minutemen to construct a nursery for them. One of us has to lead our people through all of this. You have the Guardians to worry about. Neither Runa nor Seresutia like leading. So I will be taking Ōkami’s place until he returns. I will become the face of the United Lunar Republic.”

“You don't need to take this role alone. We can split the role between us.”

“Not going to happen. You, Runa, and Seresutia hold positions among the military side of our country. I will be setting up a Council to take some of the stress off me. While I will need a military councillor it will not be you. Your place is at the front with the troops. That is what our people expect from you.”

“You know I don’t like this right?”

“I figured you wouldn’t. I want you to do something for me though. Something that will be off the books.”

“What is it?” Luna leaned in and whispered something into Midnight’s ear, “Why do you need me to do that?”

“Because, If for some off chance that Ōkami does not return, we need a trump card.”

“I guess but I don’t like it. I hate secrets. You know that.”

“That is another reason why you will not be the face of our country.” Luna stopped and looked at the large double doors before them, “Looks like we are here.” she looked at Midnight, “I can handle it from here. Go and get Chrystal.”

“Alright. I will come see you before I leave the world.” Midnight responded before she walked away.

*****

Midnight wondered outside of the castle grounds looking for the once queen of the changelings. Since joining Ōkami the changelings have changed. They no longer look like monsters. All the holes in their bodies have filled and they now all have regular eyes with round pupils. While they still feed off the emotions of others, they are freely given love. Everyone in the Republic enjoys their company.

Midnight looked at the large number of shacks in front of her, “I guess this is the changeling village.” as she continued into the village many changelings smiled and waved at her. At the center of the village was a single shack that was smaller than the rest. Midnight approached the door and knocked.

“How many times to I need to tell you guys to just wal-” Chrystal stopped when she saw Midnight, “Midnight what do I owe the pleasure of you coming all the way out here? I hope Ōkami is well.”

“That is the problem. Ōkami is missing. Luna has requested that you meet her in our private chambers, and has also sent me to collect any changelings that wish to become Lunar-Key Guards.” Midnight responded. Not giving the once Queen time to answer.

“I will have them meet you on the training field at Pevensey Castle.”

“I shall be on my way then.” Midnight responded before leaving the town, “Now to the human camps.” she muttered as she walked deeper into the Everfree.

The human camps were spread out. The only ‘groups’ that stayed close to each other was the Minutemen and BoS. They also have made the two largest camps. In Between the two camps was a single building. Midnight walked over to it and pushed the door open. Once inside she saw a group of humans standing around a map of Equus, with Runa at the head, “I don’t see why we can’t just go off on our own. Why do we need permission from these horses to do anything?” one of the men in BoS armor asked.

“Because those ponies can do a lot of damage if they so wish. Not only that but it was thinking similar to that, that caused our world to die. You are dismissed. I want your armor and gun at my tent before nightfall. If you don’t comply then you will be marked as a heretic and shot on site. Do I make myself clear?” Runa growled.

Midnight cleared her throat causing everyone to look at her, “Luna has need of your services. It may not be the best of jobs but it is something. Also Ōkami is currently MIA that means she is in charge until otherwise stated.” all the soldiers except for the one who lost his place saluted her, “Runa can I talk to you for a moment?”

“Everyone out.” all the soldiers left.

“We need to watch Luna. Something is not right she is splitting us up. You and her will be the only ones of us that will still be on world. After I train some changelings I will start a secret mission for her. She was going to be the one to come and talk to you about getting things done at the castle, but instead I came so I can tell you these things.” Midnight explained.

“So you are saying that she is going crazy?”
“I think losing Ōkami has done something to her. Once I finish the mission she gave me I will be going look for him myself, and when I find him I will drag him back here to fix this.”

“Alright. Just let me know when you find him. I want to beat some sense into that head of his also. He should not have left to fight whatever you guys went fight without all of us.”

“Runa, you and Luna are pregnant. You can't fight. Me and Seresutia are the only ones who can right now and I don’t even know where she is.”

Auradon

Author's Note

I know it is shortish, but I am trying to let the story run its own course without rushing it, and before I get asked I will have a chapter that is just Ōkami but for now we need a little character development (even if it is minor) and some plot points that can be built on. So Enjoy.

Auradon

Seresutia stepped out of her DTL followed by twenty thestrals, “Alright guys!” she yelled, “This is our first stop!” she looked around and saw a castle in the distance, “We will be working from the shadows till we know what this world’s population is!” she ordered and many of the thestrals dived into the shadows becoming nearly invisible. Seresutia move quietly watching for any signs of the world’s inhabitants. After walking a fair distance Seresutia came across a sign that read, ‘Welcome to Auradon Prep’, “Stalker come to me.”

An older looking thestral came out of the shadows, “Yes?”

“Have the men wait here for my return or the signal to come. Do not move until then.” she responded.

“Yes ma’am.”

“I will be back.” she left him standing there and continued to the castle. As she got closer she saw a few humans walking around and she breathed a sigh of relief, “At least it is a world of humans.” she muttered as she left the shadows she was hiding in and began to walk freely. She was looking around as she walked and notice a few of the people were looking at her with uncertainty. A guy with a fancy blue button up shirt approached her.

“Are you lost?” he asked kindly.

“Kinda.” Seresutia responded.

“Is this your first time here at Auradon Prep?”

“Yeah, I don’t really know what it is though. I found a sign that said welcome to Auradon Prep but I never heard that name before.”

“Just a question, where are you from?”

“I don’t remember. All I remember was seeing the castle and walking this way.” Seresutia said as calmly as possible.

“Well I can bring you to see my father. He should be able to help. My name is Ben by the way.”

“Nice to meet you. Can we go now. People are starting to stare.” he looked around and saw that a majority of the people in the area were in fact staring at them.

“Follow me.” he said as he started to walk towards the castle, “So is there anything you want to know?”

“What is Auradon Prep? It looks like a castle but everyone is wearing a uniform like they are in school.”

“Auradon Prep is a school for the kids of the United States of Auradon. Well the ones that are not the kids of our parents enemies. Those kids are on the Isle of the Lost with their parents. I want to change that. Once I become king that will be my first royal decree. The children of the Lost have done nothing to deserve the punishment that they are receiving.” he explained.

“Sounds like a noble cause, but who exactly are your parents?”

“The king and Queen of the United States of Auradon.” he responded.

After that she just stayed quiet and followed him. After a while they entered what one could call a lounge. In said lounge sat two people, one was a man in blue wearing a golden crown with some type of beast on it, the other was a woman wearing a beautiful yellow dress. The first to look up was the woman, “Oh, Hello Ben who is your friend there?” she asked.

“I really don’t know. I found her on the outskirts of the school grounds lost. I was hoping you could help her.” Ben responded.

The man spoke up this time, “I don’t see why not. Belle could you please go and find a list of all the kids who have went missing within the past few weeks, and the list of kids from the Isle.” he said kindly, “Is there any chance you remember your name?” he asked Seresutia.

“No, your majesty.” she lied and he gave her a questioning glance.

“Ben you can go and continue your studies. We will handle it from here.” the man said and Ben left the room, “You can stop the act. You do not carry yourself like someone who has no memory of your identity.” he growled.

“I am sorry for lying to you, your majesty. I was just doing what I needed to get information on this world.” she replied calmly.

“So you are from another world. It has been quite some time since someone came from a different world. The last was a kid with a duck and a dog like thing. I can’t quite remember their names though.”

“Sora, Donald, and Goofy?” she asked.

“That was it. Sora, Donald, and Goofy. Belle do you remember them?”

“Yes I do. I wonder how they are.”

“I really don’t know. I only know of them, never actually met them.” she responded.

“So what brings you here to our world?”

“In all honesty, I am going to random worlds to try and find someone special to me and the rest of my makeshift family.”

“Oh. So what made you think they are here?”

“Nothing really. We have no way of tracking him. All we know is that he is currently without his keyblades and has no way off the world he is on.”

“I will help as much as possible. All I ask is that you keep this a secret from my son and the rest of Auradon Prep.”

“I can do that. So how do you want to play this? People might be suspicious of a random girl that no one has ever heard of.” Seresutia responded.

“We will figure something out.”

*****

I moved quietly from behind cover as I moved into the chamber that the ‘Sword of Crota’ is supposed to be in. As I looked around I saw quite a few ancient looking swords, “How are we supposed to know which one is the correct sword?”

“I think it might be the one glowing by itself in the middle.” my Ghost responded.

I looked at the single sword in the middle of the room, “You know that this is probably a trap right?”

“Yeah, but since when have you cared? Since I found you all you have done is cause trouble.”

I walked to the sword, “You know that you love it Spark.”

“Stop calling me that, and no I don’t.”

Slowly grasping the handle I said, “So how many waves?”

“Five or six? Maybe more if they want to try their luck.” I pulled the sword from whatever was holding it in place, “Get ready.” no sooner than Spark say that did Hive thralls flood the room. I moved swiftly cutting through their ranks. As the fairly large number of thralls began to dwindle, acolytes began to enter the room followed by more thralls, “It seems the more you kill with the sword the less darkness that resides within its blade. Keep this up and we might purify it and remove a powerful weapon from the Hive.”

“Understood.” without much thought I continued to cut down the thralls and made my way to the acolytes.

*****

Seresutia walked out of the room she was given in the dorms of the school. Looking down the halls to make sure no one would follow her, she made her way outside and went back to where she had her forces wait, “Stalker!” she called out.

The thestral moved from his perch in the trees and landed in front of Seresutia, “How went your search?”

“It went as well as could be expected. It is obvious thatŌkami is not here but something else is. I know for a fact that some of this world’s inhabitants have in fact encountered keyblade wielders once before, so it is not that hard for me to believe that more than just the two I met today are here. That being said there is a good chance of the forces of darkness moving to claim this world. Especially since it has so many strong hearted people on it.” she turned and looked at the castle, “Our new objective is to protect this world from the forces that will threaten it in the time to come.”

“Won’t Mistress Luna be upset that we stopped our mission?”

“Something was not right with her when we left. I know Ōkami means a lot to her, but he means a lot to me also. Something in her broke when she got the news. So when we go back expect things to be different. For now I want you to keep a close eye on this school. I want to know everything that happens. I will continue to play the helpless girl without her memory and learn what I can from the other students.” she started to walk away, “I will be back again in a week if nothing changes.”

The Darkness Within

Luna slowly walked through the castle. Watching every shadow move as she did. Since She sent the Guardians and Seresutia off to look for Ōkami, the ponies around the castle started to stay clear of her. Almost like she was hated. The only person who she dealt with anymore was Runa, and even that was strictly business. To say she was angry was an understatement. A shadow appeared in front of her and stood there, “How did you get here?” she asked not caring if it could understand her or not. It quickly scurried down the hall, “Wait for me!” Luna called out as she followed the shadow. As she ran after the shadow she did not notice the world around her shift and change entirely. When she finally stopped to look around, instead of the castle corridors she was running in, she now stood in a large field of heartless, but not one of them moved to attack her.

“They want to follow you.” a man in a black coat said as he approached Luna, “Just as the nobodies follow me to an extent.”

“Who are you?!” Luna demanded.

“My name is Exulk. I normally try to stay away from people who deal with _____ in any way, but with him missing I see no reason to stay away. How would you say, the sheep play while the wolf is away?” he asked tapping his chin under his coats hood, “No matter. I have come to say that in two weeks time your world will either become a graveyard or a world of true peace under a single leader.”

“What do you mean?” Luna asked.

“I’m sorry but that is all I am allowed to say. My master would have my head if I said any more.”

“Who is your Master?”

“Let's just say that he don't like your lover or any of the ones who call themselves warriors of light. Oh and loverboy is on the world that is an experiment for the Master from before the break.” a DTD, “Have fun.”

Suddenly everything went black and Luna found herself in her bedchambers. Runa looked at her from the bed, “Is everything alright Luna?”

“No. We need to mobilize everyone and lock the world down. We have two weeks before something happens.”

“I guess our short break is over then?” Runa asked playfully.

“Sadly yes. Now go load up the vertibirds and get our people in their emergency locations.”

“What are you going to do?”

“Get help.” Luna replied darkly causing Runa to look at her weird.

“I'll be going get started then.” Runa walked out the room slowly. Once she was out the room Luna turned off the light and started to focus.

“If you wish to follow me then now is the time. I need your help with defending this world.” as she finished that sentence her eyes started to shift and her normally circle pupils were now slits.

*****

Runa ran through the halls of Pevensey Castle calling all thestral guards to the courtyard furthest from her room, “Mistress Runa why have you called us here?”

“Something is wrong with Luna. I don't know what it is but I fear she is going down a dark path, and I want everyone ready to move on a moments notice. I will be going gather the changelings and the rest of the humans then we are going to Canterlot.” Runa looked at the gathered thestrals and saw the lone white mane sticking out of the crowd, “Moonlit Lilly,”

“Yes?” the mare in question responded.

“I want you to fly to Canterlot and warn Celestia and tell her what we are doing. And if anyone tries to stop you, you have full permission to incapacitate them. Just no killing.”

“Yes Mistress.” the white maned thestral took to the air and flew away.

“Now the rest of you,” Runa started, “Get moving.” she ordered. As the thestrals began moving about getting things together, Runa ran into the woods towards the changeling encampment. Before she got close to the camp Crystal landed in front of her, “Crystal, something's wrong with Luna. I fear she fell to the darkness in her heart. We are moving everyone to Canterlot. Get your changelings ready to move.” before Crystal could respond, Runa ran back into the forest towards the human camps. Once she got close she yelled, “Get the Prydwen ready for departure. All civilians are to go to their emergency locations and board their vertibirds!” she got salutes as she ran through the camp towards her tent. Once she got to her tent she quickly grabbed some fusion cores and jumped into her power armor.

“Elder why are we leaving?” Danse asked from the door to Runa’s tent.

“Luna. Something has changed in her, and I think that there will be something bad happening involving her. So the thestrals, changelings, and us are getting to Canterlot to ride out the storm.”

“But why run? Shouldn't we stop her from hurting herself or any of the people on this world?”

“That is the problem. None of us can help her. The only person who can is missing and shows no sign of showing up any time soon. Now if that is all, I have to get to Canterlot to have a chat with Celestia on what we should do.” Runa responded as she pushed her way past Danse and walked over to a landed vertibird and climbed in, “I have a bad feeling about all of this.”

*****

Luna looked out her balcony and watched as everyone in the Lunar Republic began to move, “This is perfect.” she grinned as heartless began appearing behind her, “I want you to secure this forest and make sure that there is nothing trying to stop us.” all the heartless vanished and she started to laugh as thunder cracked in the background, “It is good to be back.”

*****

“Get word out that everyone need to leave the forest now!” Runa yelled as she saw numerous neoshadows and soldiers run through the forest. She looked up from the forest and saw a couple vertibirds get smacked out the air by some darksides, “I need you to deliver the message to Celestia.” she said to the pilot, “I am not leaving anyone to the mercy of those creatures.” Runa jumped out of her vertibird and slammed into the ground creating a shockwave. She looked towards the rising smoke in the distance and started running through the woods. As she came up on a group of heartless that cornered a child she summoned her keyblade, Metal Chocobo. Cutting down the heartless quickly she opened a DTL, “This will take you out the forest and to a town called Ponyville. Find Twilight and tell her that the moon has been consumed. She will know what it means.” the child nodded quickly and ran through the portal. Continuing towards the smoke, Runa saw the heartless swarming the crash site. But what made her stop was the group of changelings surrounding the wreck fending off the dark creatures as her people climbed out the vertibird. As Runa continued to approach the group and invisible spawn from the shadows and threw the changelings to the side. Runa used her jetpack and flew towards the powerful heartless and knocked it away giving the changelings time to get back on their hooves. Runa opened another DTL, “Go in. Twilight Sparkle should be waiting for more refugees to go through. She will help you to Canterlot.” she order to the humans. None of them argued as they ran into the portal.

“Commander Runa. We will help you sweep the forest for the others. Crystal is still here picking up the stragglers. We will not leave till she is out.” one of the changelings said as he resummonded Sleeping Lion.

“Very well. You just better keep up.” Runa quickly exited her armor, “Run!” she yelled. The changelings quickly followed her. One of them looked back as her armor started to glow and exploded taking out all heartless in the area.Once they reached the next crash site, the group saw Crystal holding up a shield that held the crews of the last two vertibirds. The strain from keeping the heartless out was visible as the group approached taking out heartless as they got closer, “Crystal are you alright?” the changeling shook her head before she collapsed. Quickly Runa opened a DTL, “Get her out of here!” she ordered. All the humans and changelings left except for the one with Sleeping Lion, “I said leave.”

“I will not leave while there is work to be done.”

“Fine. But we will not be leaving the same way everyone else did. We need to get Zecora out.”

*****

The changelings exited the portal carrying Crystal, and Twilight runs up to them, “Is that everypony?”

“No. Runa and one of our own are still in there. I think they might be going get Zecora before they leave.” the mare at the head of the changeling group responded.

“This is not good. I was worried when I saw all those flying things going to Canterlot but when that little kid delivered Runa’s message I realized how bad it is. Where is Ōkami?”

“You didn’t hear? He is missing right now. The Guardians and Seresutia are all looking for him right now.”

“That could complicate things. From what I could get from Princess Celestia, losing him is what put her off the deepend a thousand years ago.” Twilight looks past the changelings towards the forest, and slowly starts to back up. The changelings looked and they all summoned their keyblades.

“Get Crystal to safety.” the mare said as she passed Crystal to Twilight. “Alright.” she started as she moved towards the approaching darkside and neoshadows, “We cannot allow these heartless the ability to leave the forest.” the others agreed and they all charged the heartless.

I landed at the Tower and made my way to the Speaker. As I approached his area I saw five other guardians following me. I quickly turned and pulled my hand cannon out, “Why are you following me?”

The only hunter in the group stepped forward, “We were just hoping to talk to the guardian who is single handedly making everyone else look bad.” she said, “Now could you please put your gun up. None of us want to fight you.”

“Guess you wouldn't be being this civil if you didn't want to talk. So tell me what is your names?” I asked holstering my hand cannon.

“I'm Jessica, the titan in black is Shaun, the other titan is Sherri, and the warlocks are Sheen and Navi.”

“Nice to meet you. The name is Ōkami. I was just going see the Speaker. Would you all like to join me?” they all nodded in agreement, “Alright, let's go then.” quietly we made our way to the Speaker, “Speaker, I have dealt with Crota. Is there anything else you need my help with?”

“No. That will be all for now. I will send for you when you are needed again.” he responded.

“As you wish, Speaker.” I said with a slight bow. I motioned for my small group to follow me, “So what do you guys want to do?”

“We could go fight in the crucible.” Jessica responded.

“That actually sounds like fun. I just hope you guys can keep up.” I joked.

“Don't worry about us.” Shaun said bitterly.

“I was only joking.” I said patting his back, “Now, Ghost give the the needed information for how we work, but only what is necessary. I have to keep some secrets.”

*****

I slowly rounded the corner and spotted my team surrounded by the enemy, “It seems your sixth member abandoned you.” a red armored warlock said.

“I wouldn't say that.” I said calmly as I walked up behind him, “Now don't you know it is not nice to corner others in what is supposed to be a fair fight?”

He spun around and pointed his auto rifle at my visor, “The hell did you come from?”

“Just around the corner.” I responded with a yawn, “By the way. You should have pulled the trigger by now.” I could see the wheels in his head turning before he realized what I said. I grabbed his gun and pushed it upwards. My team rushed his in their moment of shock. I quickly punched him in the gut then kneed his helmet. He fell to the ground.

“You really need to stop showing off.” Jessica said as she got closer to me.

“I am stuck here so I am going to have fun.” I muttered.

“What did you just say?”

“Nothing.” I looked up at the stars and saw one of them flashing.

*****

“Thestrals! Pull back!” Midnight ordered as she fought a group of neo shadows, “Changelings! Cover us!” changelings swarmed forward towards the edge of the Everfree, and blocked the hoard of heartless from pushing out into Ponyville.

[Central]*****[/Central]

“Ōkami, wake up.” Jessica said while she shook me.

“I need to get home!” I all but yelled.

“What do you mean?” she asked.

“I mean that my home is in danger and I have to figure out a way to get back there.” I growled.

“Calm down. We can go to the Speaker and see if he can help.” she responded with a stern glare.

“He can't help. There is only one person on this world that can, and he has not talked to me for some time.”

“Who?”

“The Traveler.”

“But the Traveler is dormant. It can't talk to anyone.” Shaun said.

“Believe what you will.” I said teleporting into my jump ship. The flight to the Tower was quick and well practiced. I landed and went straight for the Speaker.

“Ōkami? What are you doing here?” the Speaker asked.

“I need you to lead me to the base of the Traveler.” I said.

“But no one can get that close. Its shadow breeds the strongest of the Forces of Darkness.”

“You say that but you have made the trip before. And now you will do it again to help me.” I demanded.

“I won't do it!” he yelled at me.

I walked up to him and let go of the restraints I put in place, and his ghost started to shriek, “Take me there now!”

“What are you?”

“I am neither light nor darkness. I am not human nor demon. I am the son of the admin Cript, and current protector of my Equus, but because of that ass in the giant ball I can't go home to do my duty to that world.”

“What do mean that world? Equus is not a world we have ever been to?”

“It is to hard to explain. Take me to the Traveler. Now!”

The five guardians who teamed up with me ran into the Speaker's anteroom, “Ōkami what are you doing?” Jessica asked with her hand on her scout rifle.

“We are going to see the Traveler.” I said pushing the Speaker towards the edge of his platform as my ship got close, “If you wish to follow it is up to you, but I have a feeling Zavala will be mobilizing everyone to stop me.”

“Load up. If he is going to the Traveler so are we.” Jessica ordered as she walked to the edge with me.

*****

Directly under the Traveler a woman with snow white hair and a black coat is sitting on a tree stump, “So it seems he finally decided to take action. This might be the final push for the guardians to achieve their full potential.” she held out her hand and summoned Finrir.

*****

Seresutia watched as the kids from the Isle snuck into the museum, “This can't be good.” quietly she followed them inside. Following them closely she soon discovered what they were after. One of them ran to grab their target but a force field stopped him and sounded the alarm. Opening a DTL Seresutia returned to her dorm room, “Stalker, the four from the Isle are up to something.”

“Me and my men have noticed this also, but it does not seem to be the forces of Darkness. So my guess is that it is a natural event of this world.”

“There is only one problem with that. Their parents are well known users of darkness. Especially Maleficent.”

“Someone is coming.”

As if on cue the door to my room is forced open and on the other side stands Mal, the daughter of Maleficent, “I don't know who you are but I see through your lies. You know exactly who you are.”

“Well done Mal. I see your mother taught you to see through anyone's lies except her own. Tell me, what do you know of your mother's final defeat that put her in the position she is in?”

“She was defeated by the King and his army. That is why she is stuck on that stupid Isle.” Seresutia chuckled, “What what is so funny?”

“Next time you talk to your mother, ask about Sora, Donald, and Goofy. Then tell me her reaction. Now leave my room.”

*****

To say that someone taking the Speaker at gunpoint would cause an uproar among the guardians is an understatement. Icora, Zavala, and Cayde lead the entirety of the Vanguard against me and my quest to get to the base of the Traveler. After a short speech and a few fights they are all following me to my goal. Which is in the middle of some woods, “Let me get this straight. You guys built a city around a forest that was absolutely flooded with darkness. The hall is wrong with you people.” I said to no one particular.

Cayde walked up beside me, “So there's going to be loot right?”

“More than likely.” as we walked into the woods I got a feeling that something was following us, “Get everyone ready. Something is her-" I couldn't finish that sentence, because I was hit by a keyblade knocking me off my feet.

“For being as strong as you are, you are slow.” a woman's voice said as I stood back up.

“Everyone form a perimeter, and keep everything away from here.” the guardians moved to do as I said.

“That won't stop me.”

“That was not the plan. Now we have some privacy. Who are you and why are you here keyblade wielder?”

“My name is Sarah and I have been here quite a while. I am the one who gave the guardians their abilities.” she said as she walked out of the shadows, “God as you call him, sent you to me for your test but I care not for what he wanted.”

“Could I at least see your face before you go all evil monologue on me?” I asked. She pulled the hood of her black cloak off her head. Her snow white hair falling behind her, “Now why is it always the pretty ones that fall to darkness.” I say more than ask making her blush a little.

“How did you know?”

“Dark forest. Seclusion. I have no idea how I figured that one out.” I replied sarcastically.

“I guess it really is that obvious, but do you know why I fell?”

“No, I don't know.”

“I fell because I used my light to bring forth those who call themselves guardians. It eventually came to the point that I couldn't hold onto my light because there was so little left, and my darkness consumed it.”

“That explains why you are being this nice. Now why have you been guiding me, and why can't I summon my keyblades?”

“Because your heart is damaged. I was told by the one who brought you here that your keyblades shattered. That alone should have spelled death for you. You were weak when you got here, and I used every method I knew to make you strong enough to defeat me and end my suffering. Only then will they return to you. Then you can take your final test.”

“I wont fight you. I can find a way to help heal you, but I will not fight you.” she looked at me sadly, “Because without you this world would perish.”

“That's not true. So long as the forge is here the world will survive.” she argued.

“Then why do you strain yourself?”

“Because it is my way of repaying the debt I owe to the masters of old and their unions. This is my penance for killing my follow keyblade wielders, who only sought to preserve the light.”

“If you wish to repent then join me in fighting back the darkness. My home is being consumed, and I have a feeling something bad is coming. We could use your help.” I pleaded.

“And what of the people here? They need a defender for the things not even their guardians can protect them against.”

“The can come. Once my home is safe, everyone will be welcomed. They can live without the fear of the Fallen, Hive, Cabal, Vex, and Taken. They will be safe, and we can bring up a new group of keyblade wielders. Fierce warriors who were forged in war. They will be able to face whatever the coming conflict will be.”

“Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck!” There was a loud crash from above, and from the hole in the ground below me… Cript? “Ah shit… welp, that failed horribly…” He muttered, standing back up. “Oh, hey Ōkami. LONG time no see.”

Sarah looked at Cript, “Who are you?” she asked.

“Me? Eh, a cheap tool for progression of your story.” He chuckled. “Anywhos it, you have missed a LOT Ōkami. I mean, a fuck ton.”

I facepalmed, “You DO know that this is my Mark of Mastery exam right? And that I need to get home to save it from the darkness?”

“Ah, then I’ll make this quick. So…. First off Core is dead, Zeke had some BS happen but long story short his soul is in a woman's body, sorta roommates in there, his Nobody has turned fuck evil, impregnated another equally evil nobody and their craziness child is gonna be like NOTHING ever before seen. Daybreak Empire just blew up, don’t worry, most everyone survived, the Master of Masters has officially lost his marbles, and what was that last one… Oh yeah. The second Keyblade war has started and Zeke has an absent Silhouette that lets you fight ALL X-blade wielders present and past and can give you a X-blade cause apparently everyone is gonna need one in this next war.” He finished. “Also you are a dad.”

“Fuuuuuuuck.” I groaned, “So what about this damn test that is keeping me from going home?”

“I could give you a Starlight keyblade and you can go fight your friends absent silhouette with it. If you win your a master and I will go with you to train your people for this war. Also I will bring all the guardians and train them also.” Sarah suggested.

“Whatever gets him out of here quickest.” Cript said. “Seriously… Anyway you just need to beat ONE of the fights, though for a challenge I suggest Zeke himself cause why the hell not. Now…. good luck.” Cript said, a hole appearing under me as I dropped in like a rock. “Oh, you’ll need this!” Cript said, pulling out an Assistant and dropping it into the hole.

Cript then turned to Sarah. “So… you where in the last Keyblade war?”

“Yeah…” Sarah responded looking at the ground.

“Killed a bunch of old friends I take it?”

“I’d rather not think about it. Too many lives were lost for a stupid reason.”

“Yeah…. You do know that the Master of Masters lied to you all about the traitor right? He did it to have the X-blade forged so he could destroy it.”

“I figured he was crazy after the fact. I just don’t understand why he sentenced so many of us to death for such a stupid reason.”

“Darkness.” Cript said simply. “He needed enough of you to turn dark to balance with the light still on the battlefield so the X-blade would be forged. Sadly it didn’t work and everybody was fucked.”

“Yeah.” she chuckled a little, “Funny. I was supposed to be one of the dandelions with my little sister, but instead I followed my twin brother to war.”

“What was your sisters name?”

“Hikari, or Light. The two share a meaning.”

“Ha. Okay let me look.” Cript said, looking into his assistant “Hmmm… Was her Keyblade the Oathkeeper?” Cript asked.

“Yeah, why do you ask?”

“Cause according to this… she be having grandkids in one month”

“Really? Has she lead that good of a life?”

“Well she is still alive, just SUPER old. Those grandkids are like eighth generation.”

“I wonder if she how she would react to seeing me again. After I left her.”

“Meh, when this bs is all over go an see. And if you chicken the fuck out I will *** ********* ***** **** ****** you till you run to Freddy Krueger for sweet dreams. And yes that was censored.”

Sarah became pale, “I think I will do that.”

“Good, cause I can always do worse.”

*****

I groaned as I looked around and saw what looked to be a Pipboy laying on the ground next to me., “Where am I?”

I stood up, looking around me and saw I was on a Station of Awakening. Around me was… Zeke, in standard pose, like Sora, X-blade in hand and Kingdom Hearts in the background. I grabbed the Pipboy looking thing, shrugging as I put it on and it lit up.

**Assistant Booting Up

The following list of information held all kinds of information about me… and some things I didn’t know, everything I owned, had equipped on my person… accounts Balances, etc… This is like a game menu for life. I started to look through the list of things I could view. On of which showed the name of my mother in Cript’s family.

Slowly I looked up from the assistant as my senses were screaming at me to move. I quickly rolled to my left as the X-blade sunk into the center of the platform.

Zeke appeared behind it, taking it in hand before pointing it at me.

Battle mode engaged.

Battle mo- HOLY SHIT THAT'S A LOT OF HEALTH!!! I saw Zeke’s health, my own, magic bar… this is really helpful.

I summoned Starlight and prepared to fight. This is going to hurt.

To my surprise, he disbanded his X-blade, charging me fast before pounding my stomach into my spine then Knee kicking my nose into my skull. I fell to the ground and groaned in pain. Fighting thru the pain I stood back up and watched Zeke carefully.

In all my combat knowledge his forms where like a mix of damn near everything. He won’t be easy to predict. I cast Cure, then charged him, he side stepped my thrusting attack, ready to single hand hammer fist the side of my face in. I quickly throw myself to the ground making his attack go over my head as I roll back to my feet.

I summoned my Arcblade in my other hand, charging him as he began dodging. Damn, he is fast. I disbanded Starlight and pulled out Golden Gun, firing shots. He finally brought back his weapon to block them. Right, that thing is big enough to be a shield.

“Hell’s Gate: Armageddon.” slowly everything took a reddish tint as demons started to appear and charge Zeke. Zeke blocked most of the attacks but a few got through and held his arms in place. Quickly I summoned my void bow and fired at Zeke creating a tether on him increasing the damage he takes from attacks. I charged forward and landed a few hits before he broke free of the demons and back handed me, making me fly backwards.

He then grabbed his X-blade from the Kingdom Key hand grips… a white light shot down the middle of it as it was split in two, and he wielded each half… Damn...

“That is just unfair.” using my wings I launched into the air and dived down at him. Once I got close I used aeriga as a shield to get close and land a few more hits before he catches Starlight with one of his keyblades, before he started to slash at me wildly. I managed to dodge or block a few of his attacks but most of his attacks hit me in the chest.

He fused the two back int one, shooting chains of light back at me as he slammed me to the ground. Cracks start to form on my armor and slowly I feel like my strength is returning to me. I grin as I look at Zeke, “Is that all you got?” I taunt as I stood back up, but before I could stand all the way the X-blade slammed into my chest making my armor break the rest of the way. A surge of power flowed through my body as I clenched my hands. A black trench coat flows behind me as I stare at Zeke, “Now things are more balanced.”

He backed up, throwing the X-bade into a reflect raid. Raising up Starlight I tried to block the reflect raid only to be pushed back to the edge of the platform as the X-blade grinded against Starlight.

I pushed forward, managing to sparta kick him back. He then glowed, a blinding light over taking him as… his attire was now red, and he wielded a second Keyblade in his other hand. Valor form…

I tightened my grip on Starlight as I started to circle Zeke. moving quickly I ran at Zeke and threw Starlight in a strike raid. As Zeke blocked Starlight I slid under him and quickly spun on the ground kicking his feet from under him. Catching Starlight, I brought it down in an attempt to strike Zeke while he is on the ground, but before I could land a hit he caught Starlight in his hands and pushed it away causing me to lose my balance and stumble back. I grumble and return to circling Zeke.

Zeke charged me, the two of us clashing blades back and forth rapidly before we both backed up. This is gonna take a while.

*****

I panted as I slid back once more.

First… I fought Zeke and everything he can do… then the X-blade itself, WIELDING Zeke! And now… Kingdom hearts itself in the form of a child, wielding them both.

“Come on Ōkami, just one hit and you win.” Kingdom hearts said.

Moving slowly, “So just one hit? That is all?” I asked as I started to think of a plan.

“Yup.” They confirmed.

Taking a deep breathe I moved forward in a manner that would make any anime warrior proud. I stopped moments before I hit Kingdom Hearts and dropped Starlight causing Kingdom Hearts to look down at Starlight. I swung my fist at Kingdom hearts cheek only to be blocked by Zeke.

“Nice try-” I stomped on his foot...hard. “Owe!” He yelped, dropping both X and Zeke and grabbing his bare foot. “That’s dirty… but, unexpected. Not bad.”

Everything around me went black, I was in a void… Looking around,I spotted a little Mushroom 13 heartless running up to me...before tripping ten feet away, and sliding the rest of the way up to me, getting back up and clapping as little fireworks shot out from it.

“The fuck?” I asked to no one particular.

It did a backflip, vanishing as thirteen chests appeared before me… the last one was bigger than me...

I walked towards the first chest and opened it. It was one of my memory fragments. I collected it and turned to the next chest.

I opened the second chest and… Two Become One’s keychain!

I moved to the third chest and opened it and recieved- My assistant...thing flashed.

Obtained.

999,999,999,999,999,999 munny
999,999,999,999,999,999 Equestrian bits
999,999,999,999,999,999 Of all synthesis materials

999,999,999,999,999,999 exp. + 99999 levels

“Well then.” I move to chest four, “And what do we have in chest four Bob?” I asked jokingly before opening the chest.

A voice in the the distance called out, “Well Ōkami, in chest four we have a nice set of keyblade armor.”

I looked around and shrugged before I grabbed the paldron out of the chest and secured it in place.

The fifth chest held… is this… Jafar's lamp?

Opening chest six I found a wayfinder… with three bonds already made… Zeke, Seresutia, and… KINGDOM HEARTS!!!

Chest Seven held a...paopu fruit? Saving that for when I get home.

Chest eight held all kinds of synthesis recipes. I think for almost everything was here.

Chest nine held… Hey...this is my old phone from earth?

Chest ten glowed slightly as I approached it. Opening it revealed the map to the location of other key bearers worlds.

Chest eleven was a… is this a wolf? This small pup was white and black stripped, and looked nothing like any wolf I have ever seen.

Chest twelve was a book on keyblade combat forms.

Chest thirteen… I took a deep breath… and opened it.

Inside was… “Little bro…?” I was...speechless… He was asleep, hasn't changed a day since...since…he was pushed in front of a car on his birthday.

I reached in, wanting to touch him… this...please don’t let this be homesick illusion… I touched him. He groaned, waking up and rubbing his eyes. He then looked at me. “Ōkami… Where am I? And… why are you dressed like that?”

“It is a long story Fenik. One I will be telling you when we get home…” I said as I pulled him into a hug with a few tears rolling down my cheeks.

With him out of the chest, we began looking for a way out… I spotted something glowing on the floor nearby. It was a heart shaped Keychain. I was looking it over when, suddenly, it flew out of my hand, and the Two become one Keychain I got joined it. Then, massive waves of light and darkness flowed out from nowhere, funneling into the two as the two Keychains merged into one. Then, they grew into… a X-blade, but with Two become one as the kingdom keys.

It fell to the ground, and I walked over, and picked it up. “What is that Ōkami?” Fenik asked.

“That is one of the most powerful keyblades in existence. It is called the X-blade.”

“You mean like the Kingdom Hearts games I like to play?”

“Yeah. Exactly like that.”

When I took it, my Assistant flashed.

Whole as One X-blade

Att: 30

Def:15

Mag:20

A X-blade forged from one Keyblade that was two keyblades becoming one. It’s power dips into the darkness, but never will it lose it’s light.

Special Ability: Total control- When in Anti form, you will never lose yourself to the darkness.

Doing a few test swings I opened a DTL back to where Sarah was, “Come on Fenik, I have to go get some help before we can go home.” I said before walking into the DTL followed by Fenic and the wolf pup.

*****

Sarah was still talking with Cript when a DTL opened next to them, “Welp that is my cue to leave.” Cript said as he created a portal and walked through.

Me, Fenik, and the wolf pup walked out the DTL, “Sarah, gather the guardians. We are going to war."

The Return Trip

I stood in the hangar of the Tower as Guardians and civilians alike, ran around loading ships with supplies and weapons, “Ōkami,” Sarah said as she walked over to me, “I don't know how you want this to go but it won't be easy. Especially since we don't have a flag ship.”

“You don’t need to worry about that. I have a plan that I will be trying out pretty soon.” I responded as I made my way over to the large bay door. I looked over the edge, “I honestly thought we were higher up.” I said before diving off, leaving a stunned Sarah behind. After falling for a moment I snapped my wings open and flew towards the orb that is the Traveler.

*****

“Get those civilians onto the airships!” Midnight barked as she pushed back a group of neoshadows, “And get word to the Gryphon kingdom, Canterlot has fallen.” she finished solemnly.

Runa slid on the ground at Midnight’s side, “We will get it back. But for every inch they take we shall take hundreds of them.” she said before charging forward with a team of BoS soldiers in T-60 power armor.

*****

Maleficent landed in the coronation hall and looked around, “Oh it is so wonderful to be back.”

“By now you should know it is not this easy.” Seresutia said as she walked out of the crowd, “Ben get your people out of here. I don’t want anyone caught in the crossfire.” twenty thestrals appeared out of the shadows, each with their keyblades at the ready, “Now tell me Maleficent, why don’t you just go home before we have to do what Sora did all those years ago?” Seresutia asked as she summoned her keyblade.

“You insolent child!” she yelled as flames encompassed her body as she became a large black dragon.

“I thought you'd be bigger.” Seresutia stated as she spun her keyblade before charging Maleficent. She dropped to the ground and slid as Maleficent’s claws swiped at her. She jumped on to the top of the claw and ran up her leg. Seresutia threw her keyblade in a strike raid as Maleficent opened her mouth to breathe fire at her. The impact from the keyblade made her flinch and swallow the flames. Out of nowhere a smaller slightly purple dragon slammed into Maleficent causing Seresutia to lose her balance and fall.

*****

Midnight watched in horror as Nightmare Moon sliced her way through the humans, changelings, and thestrals with a demonic looking scythe, “Everyone retreat!” she called out. Sadly the only ones to respond were the soldiers that were close. Nightmare smiled gleefully as she cut down the forces that opposed her.

“No more!” Celestia yelled as she slammed into the ground in front of Nightmare Moon, “Sister I know now what darkness has overtaken you but please fight back. I do not wish to fight you.”

“Of of course you don't. You cling to tightly to your light. Embrace the darkness and we can be on the allies once more.” Nightmare chuckled darkly.

“No. I can't do that. We need balance. We can't both be one with the darkness. So please stop this. We can work together to help everypony.” Celestia pleaded.

Nightmare snorted before she slapped Celestia, “Tis a shame. I didn't want to do this.” her horn lit up and stone surrounded Celestia's hooves, “Goodbye sister.” Nightmare spin her scythe and slammed the blade into Celestia, sending her flying back into a group of thestrals.

*****

I landed on the Traveler sphere. Summoning Whole as One I stabbed it into the sphere, and it started glowing. Slowly it rose higher into the air, as it expanded rapidly. After a while the glowing died down and instead of the Traveler, a CSO-Supercarrier sat over the city, “I didn't expect it to be this big.” I opened a DTL and walked through. When I came out I was standing inside the command deck. I looked around and chuckled, “At least they made it easy for a human to use.”

“Welcome aboard Captain.” a female voice said from all around me.

“Who are you?” I ask.

“I am Clara, and I am this vessels on board A.I.”

“Well Clara, let's bring this beauty closer to the Tower to load supplies.”

“Would you like to use the gravity well to lift the supplies into the loading bay?”

“That sounds like a wonderful idea.” I chuckled as I stood at the control panel.

*****

Seresutia jumped back dodging another swipe from Maleficent, “Is that all you got, you overgrown gecko?” she taunted, “I've seen a frog who fought harder than you.” Maleficent roared in rage before letting out a torrent of green flames from her maw, “and his name was Kermit.” she said with a slight chuckle.

Before Maleficent could breathe fire again Mal landed in front of her, in her dragon form.

*****

Sarah watched in shock as I slowly descended from the CSO, “Will this work?” I asked as I touched down in front of her.

“I'll admit that I almost sent a few fighters to investigate, but how did you do that?”

“The power of a X-blade. I didn't even think it would work. But enough of us just sitting around, let's get everything loaded so we can get moving.”

“Almost all the supplies are loaded onto the jumpships. All that is left is the tanks and other large objects that dont fit on the ships.”

“Then let's get those ships into the carrier so we can unload them.”

“Will do.” Sarah responded before she walked away to give orders.

*****

Midnight trudged through the camp, surrounded by worn down, tired soldiers, “Captain Midnight?” one of the human soldiers asked as he looked down at Midnight, “What will we do? Equestria is but a wasteland of darkness, and the other countries have shut their borders to us saying that we are the cause of this mess.”

“All we can do is wait and hope that help arrives soon.” she replied solemnly, before continuing down the rows of tents before stopping in front of a tent with a red cross on it. Walking inside she stopped a nurse, “Red Heart how is she?”

“I don't know much about Alicorn biology, but by normal pony standards she is recovering, but slowly.”

“May I see her?”

“Right this way.” Midnight followed Red Heart behind a set of curtains. Laying in bed was Celestia, but instead of her pristine white coat, it was covered in mats and bloodied bandages.

“This will be over soon Celestia. I have a feeling something will happen soon.” suddenly Oath Keeper appeared in Celestia's hoof before raising itself up and shooting a beam of light into the sky.

*****

I stopped as I felt a pulse of light from another world. A light that I know. I take off in a full sprint to find Sarah. I ran through the halls of the Tower. I finally found her by the Speaker, “We need to get going. Now.”

“What's wrong?” Sarah asked.

“I was called to by a friend of mine's keyblade. Something went horribly wrong.”

Sarah's face went pale, “For a keyblade to call you like that. Let's just say it is not good. All the supplies are loaded. So we are ready to go.”

*****

Murrue Ramius sat on the command deck of the Archangel when suddenly alarms started blaring, “What is going on?” she asked.

“A large unknown ship just appeared out of nowhere, Captain.”

“Try and make contact. We don't need to fight if it is not necessary.”

“They are actually trying to contact us.” one of the crew members responded.

“Then put them through.”

“Captain Ramius, this is Ōkami. We are requesting your aid in the battle for my world.”

“It is good to hear from you Ōkami. We would be glad to help. Just tell us where to go.”

“I am opening the port hanger please come land inside and I will have someone bring you to the bridge. We have one more stop to make.”

*****

Seresutia looked at the lizard in Mal’s hand, “I was not expecting that to happen.”

“Neither was I.” Mal responded.

“So what are you going to do now?”

“I really don't know.”

The CSO exited the large DTL and was resting over a large castle, “So who are we here to get?” Murrue asked.

“We are here for one of my girls. One you have already met.” I responded, “I'm going down. I'll be back in a little while.” I said before opening a DTL to the surface. When I walked through I was met by some armed guards, “Alright. Take me to your leaders.”

The looked at each other in confusion before leading me into the castle and past a large group of people and some thestrals.

“Hey guys.” I said as we passed them. Most of the thestral’s eyes lighting up when they saw me. I just smiled and waved.

“Ōkami!” I heard Seresutia yell.

“Hey.” I replied before she slapped me, “Ow.”

“That was for being an idiot.” she then grabbed me and pulled me in for a kiss. We she pulled away we both smiled, “That is for coming back.”

“Well while I would love to stay here and meet some of your new friends, I can't. Our world needs us to return, something bad has happened.”

“What do you mean?”

“I don't know all the details but darkness is consuming our home.”

“What? But that would mean that…” she had a scared look as she trailed off, “I trust you have a plan.”

“Yeah. Got a warship full of soldiers. We are going to take the world by storm and eliminate the darkness.”

“There is a problem with that. Midnight warned us that something was off with Luna when you didn't come back. I think she might have fallen.”

My breath caught when I heard that. I knew she had fallen before but to hear it happen a second time because of me, was just to much, “Then we will do what we can to save her. Even if it means removing her darkness by force. But we have stayed here long enough.” I said as I opened a DTL, “This will take you to the ship.” I said loud enough that the thestrals could hear me.

“What ship?” she asked.

“We really don’t have time for me to explain. We need to leave.”

“Alright, but you will explain everything to me and the girls once this is over.” she said before walking through the DTL.

“Sorry for any trouble cause by my people.” I stated before following Seresutia through the portal.

After I stepped back into the ship the Thestrals started filing in through the portal. Not long after I stepped through I was punched in the gut by Seresutia, “Who are these two women?” she asked angrily still holding a clenched fist, while pointing at Sarah and Jessica.

“That would be Sarah and Jessica. Sarah is a survivor of the first Keyblade war and Jessica is one of the Guardians I befriended while I was stranded on their world.” I responded trying to back away from her slowly.

“Sure. And the reason that they are in the command center of a ship that only needs one person to operate its main steering functions is?”

“Your guess is as good as mine. I can see why Sarah is here, saying that I did call her beautiful when I first met her, but I don’t know why Jessica is here, but we can talk about this later. We have to go save our home first.”

“Alright, but we will be talking about this.”

All of us Mian keybladers hope to hear from you guys.

The climb

Nightmare stomped around the throne room cracking the once pristine marble floor, "That buffoon." she snarled before a DTD opened and Exulk walked out, " What do you want?" She spat at the cloaked man.

"What I want is of no importance to you, but seeing as the council closed its doors on me I may as well stay here and help you win this fight. After all, heartless are but only a half of the power we have at our disposal." He finished as a couple dusks appeared behind him.

*****

I sat in the chair next to Luna's bed in the infirmary, "I wish I would have made it back sooner."

"Ōkami," I turned and saw Sarah standing in the doorway, "You did what you could. It is my fault for being selfish. You would have made it back a good while before everything went downhill if it wasn't for me."

"Yeah, but then you would have been left struggling to help your world. I am thankful for that. I'm glad I met you and the others."

"Ōkami…" Luna said slowly as her eyes eased open, "Ōkami is that you?"

I smiled, "Yes it's me. I'm back." before I could react, she pulled me into her as she started to cry.

"I hurt so many. So many of our people fell to me alone not to mention the heartless."

"That was not you. That was Nightmare, and trust me she won't be hurting others for much longer."

"How could she be hurting others still if I'm not under her control?"

"I split you from her so I didn't have to hold back anymore. I couldn't risk hurting you."

She pulled her head back and smiled at me with tears still trailing down her cheeks, "You dumb lovable idiot, what would have happened if you couldn't have separated us?"

"I would have delved into your heart and helped you regain control."

Luna gave me a kiss on the cheek before she laid back down, "Go finish the fight. I will be here waiting for you." she said with a smile.

"I will be back then. Our people need me." I stood up and started walking out of the room. I stopped at the door and looked at Luna, "Love you. See you again soon."

*****

I looked over the hangar while humans, ponies, and changelings alike ran back and forth loading transports with supplies, "Clara what is our ETA to Canterlot?"

"I am expecting us to be within firing range within the next ten minutes." Clara responded.

"Good, patch me through to the ship's intercom."

"Your good to go."

"Attention all personnel, this is Ōkami, and if you don't know already, I am the reason you are all here. Some of you don't understand the importance of this world while others do. In approximately nine minutes we will be within combat range of the mountain city Canterlot. Our mission is to secure the city and push the forces of darkness back and off of this world so that it can be home for all of us. I know that some of you have grown used to fighting for the survival of your people," I looked at the speaker and the nearby guardians, "And others have not had a home to call their own in some time," I looked at Kira and the other pilots from the Archangel, "But the one thing we all share is the opportunity for us to not only live in peace, but to have a home that we can call our own. A home that welcomes all, humans, ponies, changelings, and even half breeds like me. This world represents the very meaning of harmony and I will not see it fall today, or ever so long as I can breathe I will fight to preserve this beautiful world and all others like it. But before we can help others we need to start here. We have already pushed the darkness back once, now let's do it once more and rid this world of its influence." cheers reverberated throughout the ship as I finished my speech.

"Five minutes out Captain." Clara said.

"Everyone to your stations. We are five minutes out." I said before walking to a nearby gravity lift and went down to the ground level of the hangar. I made my way over to the wolf gundam and my jumpship, "Clara have Sarah meet me here, I have special orders for her."

"Yes sir." she replied.

I didn't have to wait long before Sarah came running towards me, "You wanted to see me?"

"Yeah, I want you to take the Wolf Gundam and lead the ground assault. I will be heading the fighters and transports."

"What about your girls and brother?"

"Seresutia and Celestia will be riding with me, because once we break through and the transports can start dropping the infantry in the city, we are going for the castle. Midnight and Runa will be heading their respective forces, and Jessica will be with her fireteam."

"And Finik?"

"Finik will be staying on the ship. Clara will watch him until this is over."

"We are now within combat range." Clara said.

"Put us on full alert. I want everyone ready to launch on my mark." I ordered as I climbed onto my jumpship.

Seresutia and Celestia both came running towards us, "Clara said we are riding with you?" Seresutia asked once they were close.

"Yeah. Go ahead and climb in the back. We will be moving as soon as your ready."

"Alright, just don't do anything stupid while we are back there." Seresutia said before her and Celestia got into their seats.

I nodded to Sarah as she walked over to the Wolf Gundam and climbed in the cockpit. Once she was inside I climbed into my seat and started up the thrusters on my ship, "Time to fly." I said with a smirk.

I eased the throttle forward. The ship slowly moved forward picking up speed as I headed toward the hangar door. Once I passed the threshold of the hangar and flew into the open night sky. I turned the nose of my ship towards Canterlot, "Alright." I spoke over the radio, "it's time to wake them up." I slammed the throttle forward and the ship rocketed towards Canterlot. Before we got close to the city flying heartless and nobodies appeared and started attacking me and the other jumpships. Lining up with a group of heartless I let loose a spray of machine gun fire destroying the group, but before I could find another target warnings flashed across my console and I quickly pulled up and rolled my ship as the missiles tried to follow me but they collided with one another. I pulled my throttle back and let gravity take hold as the ship flipped into a nose dive towards the castle.

"Ōkami, what the hell are you doing up here?" Seresutia asked as she climbed into the cockpit from the back.

"Oh you know," I rolled the ship to dodge more missiles, "Just keeping us alive. Hold on to something." she quickly strapped herself into the chair behind mine as I killed the thrusters and spun the ship before slamming them back on and flying straight at a large group of nobodies that were heading towards the Archangel.

"Ramius, you have a large group of nobodies moving in on you port side."

"I see them." The front of the Archangel opened and two gundams launched out, and flew towards the approaching foes, "Kira and Shin got these guys. Get to that castle and end this."

"Alright." I switched channels on the radio as I change our course to the castle, "Sarah how goes things on the ground?"

"There is a lot of Darksides down here but nothing me and the other mobile suites can't handle. The ground transports are getting hell from a group of invisibles and large bodies."

"Just keep those Darksides focused on y'all. I'll help the transports." I switched the channel again.

"Focus on the invisibles. They are the ones who can dish out all the damage. The large bodies will just take anything you throw at them, unless you hit their backs." Runa called through the radio.

"Runa which transports have the most heat on them?" I asked.

"Transports one through eight are swamped with large bodies making it difficult for them to push forward."

"Roger that. Airstrike inbound." I flew lower to the ground and started dropping bombs into groups of large bodies making them disappear. I pulled up and lined myself up for another run on the other side of the transports, but as I was about to start dropping bombs, a beam of darkness shot from the castle and destroyed the entire left side of my ship, "Hold on!" I called out to Celestia and Seresutia as we fell from the sky and slammed into the ground creating a crater, "Is everyone alright?" I asked.

"I've been better." Seresutia responded, "Celestia you okay back there?" we both looked back into the spoke filled section of the ship and saw a golden light among the dust.

"I never thought I'd have to use a shield for a crash landing in a metal box." Celestia said with a smile as she blasted the remains of the cockpit window from above us, "So I guess we move on hoof now right?"

I smiled and pulled a silver cylinder out of one of my pockets and threw it a little ways away from the remains of my ship. The cylinder started to flash blue before something large slammed into the ground, "I would never ask two ladies to travel through a battlefield without it being in style." as the dust settled around the impact zone the Black Winged Gundam was revealed.

"What about you?" Seresutia asked.

"My ride is on it's way." I smirked as the Wolf Gundam approached.

"You called Ōkami?" Sarah asked.

"Yeah. Me and the girls need to get into that city. But the problem is that we need a lift over there. The ladies have their ride, think there is room up there for both of us?"

"I don't see why not." she responded as she opened the cockpit to let me in. I focused on Whole as One's creation ability and made a second seat for Sarah to sit in while I controlled the Gundam.

"Seresutia can you go see about cleaning up the mess by the mobile suites while I go and help the transports?"

"Sounds fun. See you in a few." She responded making her Gundam blow a kiss in my direction. I smiled and gave her a salute before heading back towards the transports.

A few Darksides appeared before us. Summoning Whole as One I threw it in a strike raid destroying one of them. I called One back to me as I jumped over another and slashed it's back destroying it. Focusing I drew out the darkness within me, " Midnight Hunt!" large metallic wolves of darkness raced towards the remaining Darksides and the heartless surrounding the transports, destroying them all, "Runa, push forward I just gave you an opening."

"Roger." she responded, "You heard the man move up." she ordered the drivers.

*****

Luna and Finik watched the fight from the CSO's bridge, "Finik has your brother always been this headstrong?"

Finik looked at the dark alicorn in thought, "Only when something or someone he cares about is affected. And with him essentially being this worlds guardian for lack of a better word it makes sense. Back home the only two things that would get him like this was me and Seresutia."

"I thought that might be how he prioritized things." she looked at the screen and saw that Ōkami and the others made it to the base of the mountain, "They are getting close."

"I wish I could be down there helping him. I hate being stuck on the sidelines." the little black and white wolf puppy nudged his leg and whined, "And I guess you want to help also Fenrir." Fenrir barked happily at Fenik. When Finik looked back at Luna only to see her face full of worry and shock. Finik followed her gaze and saw what the problem was. Ōkami and the other were completely surrounded. The transports empty and abandoned because of the trail being to small for them.

"Fenik. Listen to Clara. I have to go. I can't let my people be cornered and turned into a target for Nightmare Moon." Luna said as she started walking out of the bridge.

*****

Me and Seresutia worked to keep the larger heartless back as our fighters tried to work their way up the mountain through the seemingly endless waves of heartless and nobodies, "This isn't good. There are too many of them for us to keep this up." Seresutia said as she got ready to attack the closest darkside.

"It wouldn't be so bad if we could just get a little space." I responded.

"Seresutia do you think that you could get me on the ground with the others?" Celestia asked, her voice coming through the coms.

"I could but our window will be short."

"Just get me into the most dense crowd of enemies." Celestia said before Seresutia's gundam moved into the mass of heartless and nobodies, and a white blurred shot from the Gundam's chest. Seresutia jumped back as beam of pure darkness blasted the spot she was standing in previously.

"Watch out for more of those beams. Nightmare will do anything she can to keep us out." I called over the main com channel. I spun and brought One up to block a whitish gray beam, "Dodge those also. I don't know who is using those but it is definitely another big hitter."

A dark blur flew past me and landed next to Celestia before a bright flash encompassed the area. When it faded it revealed a black alicorn with a black billowing mane and tail that was outlined in a dark red. The alicorn's cutie mark was an eclipse. In it's magic it held both Oblivion and Oath Keeper, "Ōkami," it said in a voice that sounded like both Celestia and Luna talking at the same time, "You need to clear a path forward. We can keep them off your back."

As I went to do just what they said something clicked inside me as my Gundam shifted into a giant wolf. Once the change was completed, tore through the battlefield tearing up group after group of heartless and nobodies. My troops followed me through the hole I made and we slowly began to push forward once more. Warnings started to flash all across my control console, I looked up to see a beam of darkness and what I assume is nothingness flying straight for me. But before it hit Seresutia blocked it from above. Her Gundam looked different also, instead of two black wings she had one, and instead of her keyblade she held an oversized katana. I shifted my focus back on clearing a path only to realize that we were at the gates for the city.

The Light and Darkness

Sorry about the wait. Between finding a new job, being trained and doing said new job and being a father it has been difficult to find time to write, but here it is. Enjoy

The Light and Darkness

Midnight looked out over the rows of tents as she flew around the camp’s perimeter, “Nothing is going how it should.” she said to herself as she glided down to a large tent. When she landed she looked at the guard in front of the flaps, “Is she showing any signs of waking?”

“Sadly no. I fear that she will never wake.”*****

“I understand that you were alone, but that didn’t mean you had to go and hit on some woman you had just met.” Seresutia stated.

“I only pointed out that she was beautiful. I hardly see how that is a bad thing.”

Before she could retort my head started throbbing and the pressure slowly increased. I brought my hands to my head as screams filled my head, “That is the twins, Oblivion and Oath Keeper.” One said inside my head as the screaming faded, “Something is wrong. With both Celestia and Luna's hearts. I don't know what yet though.”

“Ōkami wh-”

I cut Seresutia off as I summoned One and shot a beam into the main control console of the ship before the whole thing shook, “We need to finish this later.” I said before an explosion rocked the ship, “We have a war to win"

*****

Slowly all the solar guards started singing a somber song. After a moment the whole camp started singing along. Suddenly there was a bright flash an a large vessel appeared in the sky, not long after a large beam of darkness slammed into the vessel causing an explosion, “So this is where my treasonous subjects ran to.” a voice said echoing through the camp, “Heartless eliminated them and bring me Celestia.” slowly light started pulsing around the camp stopping the heartless from entering the camp, “We shall see how well that barrier protects you from a large ship falling on your head.” Nightmare stated as she fired another beam of darkness at the vessel.

“GALACTIC REFLECT!” a voice yelled before the beam slammed into Nightmare. Ships and mobile suites launched from the large vessel.

“HEARTLESS ATTACK!”Nightmare yelled, before hordes of heartless shot into the sky to incept their opponents.

As the two armies clashed, wolves could be heard howling in the distance. Nightmare looked in the direction of the howling with a look of fear. A large ground force of heartless surrounded Nightmare as wolves made of a mix of light and darkness charged at her. After a few minutes the wolves seemed to just stop as a DTL opened at the edge of the camp, and three people walk out before it closes.

*****

“Man it is good to be home.” I said as I walked out the DTL followed by Seresutia and Sarah, “Hey Nigjtmare!” I called out, “Why don't you just stop this before it gets ugly? Well uglier than it already is.” she snarled and fired another beam of darkness at me, which Sarah stepped in front of it and stopped it with her hand, “Sarah, Seresutia. I got her. Go help the others, and see what the people in the camp need and if possible get them into the CSO.” I focused and opened two DTLs, and both the Black Wing and Wolf Gundams appeared, “Sarah I want you to take the Wolf Gundam and use it once the camp is taken care of. I have a feeling that the fighting will hit the ground sooner than we would like.”

They nodded and took off into the camp, “Just you and me now doll face.” I said before having to dodge a bolder that the launched at me, “Now that is just rude.” I said before charging her. Once I got close she tried slashing me with her horn only for me to drop to my knees and summon One to block her attack. I quickly spun and kicked her in the jaw causing her to stagger back. I ran forward and started pushing her back with a series of punches and kicks.

“Enough!” Nightmare yelled as a shield appeared around her and a scythe appeared in her magical grasp, “Bow before me.” she demanded as she angled he scythe towards me.

*****

Seresutia ran through the camp giving orders to everyone that she passed, before she passed one tent and something called for her to stop. Something was calling out to her heart. Slowly she approached the tent and pulled its flaps open and gasped when she saw what was inside, Celestia laying on a cot holding a glowing Oath Keeper. Seresutia approached Celestia a rested her hand on the hoof holding Oath Keeper, “I'm sorry we didn't come back sooner. So many of our people dead and dying because of something we could have stopped if we would have noticed the signs and helped Luna.” tears started running down her cheeks, as they fell the began to glow and began healing Celestia as they fell onto her. Celestia's eyes opened and stared at Seresutia, but instead of their normal color they were glowing white.

*****

“Where am I?” Seresutia asked as she looked around and noticed that she was standing on a large circular platform with a picture of her and Celestia on it.

A ball of light came down from the darkness above and landed on the platform. As the light dissipated it revealed Celestia, uninjured and standing tall, “Now I did not expect this. To have met and be saved by a reflection of myself from a dimension so far away that we are different species. I guess that is why you and Luna clicked so well once the fighting was over.” she slowly trotted towards Seresutia, “But something is not right. You seem incomplete.” a wave of light left Celestia and washed over Seresutia and her back erupted in pain as a pair of large white wings grew, “That is it. Your angelic DNA was being repressed by the magic put on your family generations ago.”

“What are you talking about?” Seresutia asked as she spread her wings to look at them.

“To put it simply, I have met our original. And the one thing she told me is that every one of her reflections has wings. Everyone has the angelic DNA. I couldn't understand why you didn't have them. Even here with our hearts being joined you should have had them but something was blocking it and I just rest your genetic code so that there was nothing stopping your wings from growing.”

“So your saying that all the times I was called a fallen angel, that is actually what I was?”

“Yes. Now we need to get going. Our people need us and so does Ōkami. He will only be able to push Nightmare Moon so far before she stops holding back.” the whole area was enveloped in the light.

*****

Seresutia blinked her eyes as her senses returned to her. As her vision cleared she saw a smiling Celestia looking back at her, “Time to finish this.”

*****

I slid back with a grin before launching myself forward and clashing with Nightmare’s scythe, “ why don't you just give up and bow to me.” Nightmare seethed.

“Because there is no fun in doing so.” I replied before jumping back, “Firga!” I sent a large ball of fire at her only for her to raise a shield of ice in front of my attack making it fade, but I followed it to her shield and jumped through the new hole a slashed st her shoulder. She did not react fast enough and it connected. I used her moments of shock to shove One into her heart, “HEARTS SEPARATION!” Nightmare screamed as her heart ripped into two. Once the two were separated I stabbed One back into Nightmare, “SEED OF LIGHT,” I quickly put One into the heart of light “DARK IMPLANTATION.” Nightmare collapsed on the ground as a body formed around the heart of light. After a moment Luna was on the ground next to Nightmare Moon.

I turned as I heard two sets of wings behind me. Celestia and Seresutia stood in front of me. Celestia quickly ran up to me and pulled me into a hug, “You have no idea how much we missed you here.”

“I think I have an idea. Nice wings by the way. You can explain it to me later once this mess is over with. Celestia I need you to take Luna to the ship over there,” I pointed at the CSO, “Then I want you here to help me with Nightmare.” Celestia looks confused before she looked past me and saw the two alicorns on the ground, “I'll explain later.” Celestia nods before she picks Luna up in her magic and teleports away.

Nightmare slowly starts to wake up, “What did you do to me you fool?”

“Simple. I removed Luna from you and fixed both of your hearts so they wont fuse back together. Now there is no reason to pull any punches before I could do anything she glared at me and teleported away, “That could have gone very differently.”

“Yeah, but we won this battle and she knows it. She will be a little more careful about how she plays her cards from here on in.”

“And here I was hoping to end this quickly.” I looked up into the sky and watched as my forces cut through the heartless. I placed a small device by my head, “All forces are to regroup and await further orders. We have people to bring into the loop and I don't need any infighting while there is a heartless anywhere on this world once i finish there was a series of conformations as ships and gundams returned to the CSO.

“So now what?”

“Now I go face the music of pissed off women. While I try to tell everyone what exactly went on.”
