 Sixth Journal Entry: Training Gone Wrong

Hikaru Harada:

Main character. She has lived on the streets of Twilight Town for most of her life (at least as much as she can remember). Hikaru was a thief using her keyblade Forgotten Memories until Masters Roxas and Sora took her in their care and trained her.

Chaos:

A mysterious boy wearing organization 13's old cloak whos lived with Master Eriquas as he trained. Very obidient, anything beyond that seems to be a mystery.

Hunter:

A young girl the same age as Hikaru. Like a nobody she seemed to appear in Castle Oblivion with only foggy memories slowly coming back to her. Tough and sturdy she has great power and a temper to match.

Master Eriquas:

A legend in keyblade masters, his age seems to be near Master Yen Sid's. His keyblades power reaches far beyond Masters Roxas and Sora's.

Masters Roxas and Sora:

Both reaching their age of 20s they have worked together ever since teenage years. Not a lot of people know this but Roxas is Sora's nobody.

Faust:

A mysterious boy at the age of 13. Now realizing he used to be part of Organization 13 even more questions surface, but I guess questions can wait.

Faust and I walk around the halls as we try to find Chaos and Hunter. As I take my time I let Faust let out some energy and run ahead. I hear him sigh. "Are we ever gonna find-" He gasps and jumps behind a corner.

"What's the matter?" I asked him as I caught up. He shushed me and pointed towards the door we just walked in front of. Faust and I peak past the corner to see what's going on. The door was made of glass so you could see the music room inside, and we listened to Hunter play the piano. "Woah...she's good."

Faust shushed me again and pointed towards the other side of the room. Chaos was standing there. When Hunter stopped playing Chaos starts clapping for her, scaring her as we watched her tumble over the piano bench. "Hehe, I guess Chaos snuck in there." Faust said as we watched Chaos help Hunter up.

We could see they were talking, but Hunter's head quickly turned towards the door and saw up peaking through the corner. "Gah!" I panicked and pulled away from the corner. I looked at Faust and pulled him back too. "Faust..."

We herd the door open and Hunter yelled, "Hey!"

"...Run!" Faust and I ran down the halls before Hunter could grab us. I swear I could hear Chaos laughing when we came around. Faust was out of breathe and so was I. "Why are you so cheery?"

"No reason really." Chaos told me. "I just think you two deserve it."

"How?" Faust asked before Hunter grabbed him by a head lock. "Ah! Hikaru, save yourself!"

Everyone laughed before Hunter let him go. Faust run up behind me and gripped my arm. "Now look what you did." I told Hunter smiling.

"Pff. That was nothing." Hunter said as she crossed her arms.

Chaos cleared his throat. "Well I think it's time for us to return to the Dining Room and see what Master Eriquas plans to teach us today."

Everyone agreed and went back to the dining room. When everyone looked around to see the room was empty Hunter went over to a hanging pot. "What's this?" She said pointing at something white hanging off the pot. When she pulled it down it was an envolope.

"Huh? Where did Chaos go?" Faust asked. Chaos disappeared but we didn't worry about it.

Faust and I walked over to Hunter as she opened the envolope. Inside was a letter and she began to read it. "Good morning Students,

As I mentioned yesturday I want to test out your strengths. From your stamina to your magic I need to see what each one of you are capable of, so I've assigned Chaos to give you this test. According to Chaos' information it will be taken in the West Corridor of the castle. Good Luck."

"We were just over there." I sighed.

Hunter tossed the papers on the table. "Well we know where to go then. Let's get on with it."

Faust and I nod before we head over. When we open the corridor it was like opening a door to another world. There was a pathway that looked like it was floating on water, and the pathway made a dead end to a fountain. When looking around the room we realized just how much water was in here. On opposite sides of the fountain were waterfalls pouring out from earthy walls into the room, flowing out by a noiseless waterfall on the other side of the room. While we walked towards the fountain I looked past it to see where all the water was going but wasn't able to because of the light. The whole room was breathe taking which made it feel like a dream. "...I don't understand." Faust said. "We're being tested here?"

I look over the rounded path to see my reflection in the water. "I'm not sure."

"Hey look over there!" Hunter pointed towards one of the waterfalls as something black poared out.

As everyone followed the blob it jumped out of the water. "It's a heartless!" I yelled and summoned my keyblade. When I look back down to the waters reflection another heartless jumps out of the water and tries to attack me. I wack it and it bounced a few feet away. I back up closer to the fountain, the same as everyone. By now hundreds of heartless were coming out of the water towards us. Faust became scared and turned to hug my arm. I could tell on his face seeing those creatures tortured him. "Barrier!" I yelled as I used my keyblade to make a big barrier around us to keep the heartless outside.

Faust looks around. "You, did all this?"

"Yes but I can't keep it up for long. I can't really leave this spot either so, make a plan." I told Faust and Hunter as I struggled to keep my first barrier spell at bay.

"Okay, okay. Let me think!" Hunter yelled as she looked around.

By now the hundreds of heartless turned into thousands. "Any day!" Faust yelled.

"OK! I figured it out." Hunter started. "Non of us are really able to battle this many enemys, so I say, run for it!"

Faust sighed. "Great plan I like that plan. But how are we gonna make it to the door?"

"Guys I only have seconds..." I mumbled as sweat dripped down my face.

Hunter looks at Faust and I. "I'll cover both of you. Hikaru just make sure Faust stays with you."

I nod and let the barrier die out. Once the top of it began decaying a floor of heartless poured in. Everyone ran for their lives. I made sure Faust was always by my side as Hunter fell back more and more shooting at heartless. Faust and I made it to the door and Faust went in first. I turn around. "Hunter!?" I watch her get knocked to the floor as her hand barely hung off the edge of the walkway before a swarm of heartless engolfed her. "No!" I yelled before a wave of darkness pushed me through the door, slamming it shut as I hit the wall next to Faust.

"Hi-kar-u!" I herd him yell before I black out.

Hej.....f...fdmiodje.

"...Huh?"

mka-key-xevb. yevc-half-du!

"Stop yelling!"-

"Hikaru!"

"Huh!?" I jump up after Chaos screamed in my face. "Ow...what happened?"

I rubbed the back of my head as Chaos explained. "Faust found me and brought me here after he filled me in on what happened. And it looks like you hit your head pretty hard for you to black out like that."

"Hm." I stand up and feel something bouncing off me chest. "What is this? A necklace?"

Chaos stood up. "Yeah it's mine. It has some healing properties."

I take it off to get a better look at it. The necklace was a white jewel with a black wing holding one side and a white wing holding the other side. "Thanks but I don't need it now." I said handing it back, not really giving him a choice. When I look around the room I see a steam of darkness seep out of the door where the fountains were. When I look towards my right I see Faust bundled up in a ball watching me like Chaos was. Then it hits me like a Struggle Bat... "Hunter is still in there!"

I run to the door as I herd Chaos warm me but I didn't listen to him, I open the door and run in. The room looks completely different now. Darkness was in the air, it poisoned all the water in the room, and from the remains of the barrier I made was a barrier made of darkness that had pulsing waves of darkness that reached every corner of the room. I took an uneasy breathe, and I ran through.
