There was a... Well armies might of not been far off as small black creatures and bigger more colorful creatures of all types were trying their hardest to break through these bizarre white creatures into the castle. They seemed to gain ground too as the Heartless were more varied and had more numbers than the Nobodies defending the castle and stopping them from climbing the castle. The boy was on the other side of the battlefield, trying to cut his way through but one enemy fell another took his place and would not lighten up. "Where are you all coming from! Give me a break already," Roxas grumbled as he looked back to the castle wall, running to it and running up, slashing through a few heartless on the way up with Oathkeeper and Oblivion before landing at the top.

"With this many there is no way we can get through... Huh, is that people in the distance... Wait, that hair and cloak..., Xion?!" Roxas stepped back a bit. Now he had to find a way through this hoard. Come on, Sora took on like 1,000 of these guys at one by himself. He can do this too and faster! "Liege, some of the men in the castle are disappearing." A voice echoed in Roxas's head... Oh great, now they are behind them! "... You guys keep them busy on this end, I'll check out the rear," Roxas advises before jumping off the castle and turning around with a swift airdash into a Superglide into the castle.

Meanwhile the group could be reaching the castle's surroundings where the hoarde seemed to leave no way to go around. There was way too many to take them all on but the small ones seemed easy to dispatch in a single blow so they had to mainly worry about the generals which seemed to be the more colorful ones in the crowd.

(Everyone, there are three groups of generals to take down, you may seperate and take them out individually or strike together on one set. There are three generals per group, defense, offense and tricky. You may choose group 1, 2 or 3 each to take down. Warning: Soloing any of the teams is probably a bad idea... For numerous reasons but you may.)

Group 1: The Classics	Soldier: Offense	Air Soldier: Tricky	Large Body:Defense
Group 2: Heartless Fantasy	Wyvern: Offense	Defender: Defense	Wizard: Tricky

A dark portal emerged from the castle grounds, and from it, Xion stepped out, hood off her head. She took a deep breath and-

“ ...whoooaa, this was so cool! How did I do that?! ”

-right, yeah, her memory wasn't properly jogged still. She did remember a couple of things, mainly her combat abilities, but most of her memories were still lost. After the mild gushing about opening a dark portal was over and done with, she assessed the situation at hand. The dark creatures were swarming the castle, taking down a bunch of weird white figures. The mission brief did say the ‘Heartless’ were overthrowing the ‘Nobodies’, so...seems like she knew which side’s which! Still...where was that boy?

“ Maybe he threw himself in the thick of the battle. I should get through these ‘Heartless’ and help him out of there! ”

Drawing a deep breath, she summoned her Keyblade and advanced towards the mass of Heartless before noticing a group of...different-looking Heartless from the mass of weirdly cute critters swarming the castle.

“ Ngh...there's too much of them. Maybe taking these different types will disperse the forces…? (Please...whoever you are…hang on tight.) ”

She shifted her gear to the a certain team of Heartless - and wow, they looked...rather familiar. In fact, all of these monsters have been reeking of deja vu. Did she...fight them at some point? Well, not that it mattered right now…

The field of battle. A tumultuous ground where nothing is ever the same as it was the minute before, and your survival depends on either the swiftness of your blade, or the swiftness of your feet. Olberic Eisenberg, Knight of the fallen Kingdom of Hornburg, knew this better than most. Even with Tressa's pleadings, it was a hard choice to return to the area where he and the others were held prisoner by the infected brigands and vipers. Fortunately, the Travelers were good at remembering roads and pathways to places they once traveled, and so Tressa and Olberic arrived at the Castle shortly behind Xion. 

"It appears the small creature was right, Tressa. Monsters fighting monsters, and who are we to know whom to protect? I have an awfully ominous feeling about this battle..." Olberic sighed as he hefted his sword onto his shoulder. While not a large blade, the curved end of the unique sword of Olberic's glinted as it landed. Tressa, leaning on her spear with one hand while cupping her eyes with the other, looked back with a smile and shrug. "Ah, don't worry, Olberic! I'm sure that other girl can help us! Besides, that little Maggle guy said he'd get us some great rewards if we brought the kid back! SOOOOOOOOOO we're gonna get the kid back! Have we ever failed before?"

"Need I remind you that we found Sister Ophilia unconscious in the streets of Goldshore after her encounter with her sister?"

"...OK, fine. I'll be careful. But I'm gonna keep an eye on this girl with us! She has no memories, nothing but her name and key... sword... thing.I'll just make sure you and I don't let her get into the thi-"

Tressa jumped up, suddenly. Olberic raised an eyebrow, unsurprised as Tressa swung on her backpack and ran down after Xion, spear still in hand. Olberic followed slowly behind, shaking his head. "So, this 'Xion' is in the thick of combat, is she? Then you are one I must protect now. I swear it on my honor as a knight, and as a hero!"

(Tressa and Olberic join the fight against Team 1!)

[Blade Unlimited]

Shiya hadn't been on a mission for a loooooooong time. For good reason too. After his last mission, a phantom god had essentially performed a magical lobotomy on the mage's mind, completely deleting his powerset. For all intents and purposes, outside of his amazing personality, Shiya Kirigaya was a normal person with no special abilities to speak of whatsoever... not exactly the most useful for a mission. Still, there was only so much a person could do locked up in their home (or breaking into Chell's home) before they got unbearably bored. On a whim, Shiya accepted the first mission ad he saw one day... which led to him being here, facing a hoard of black and white creatures fighting each other. "...Gawrsh... This might've been a mistake." He mumbled under his breathe, walking alongside the black-cloaked girl and two travelers.

One of them brought up a good point. Their mission said to save some guy on the "Nobody" side and defeat the "Heartless" side... BUT THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE HELL ANY OF THOSE WERE-KUPO! "Ah screw it!" He abruptly screamed to interrupt his frustrated thought process. If he beat everything then there'd be no problem! With zero hesitation or consideration for the fact that everyone else had ran to engage team 1, the red-cloaked ex-mage dashed forward into the fray to engage group 3; screaming a battle-cry that anyone familiar with the youth wouldn't be particularly surprised about.

"LEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY JEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEENNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNKINNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNSSSS!!!"

From within his cloak, Shiya withdrew a homerun bat; raising it above his head with a confident scream as he cracked it down onto the closest monster: the Luna Bandit. "Take this!" As soon as he landed, the mage immediately went for another, heavier blow to the creature's kneecaps in hopes of disabling it. That's right, he was planning to fight a hoard of ungodly creatures with a glorified STICK.

The Luna Bandit jumped back just barely as it noticed a bat about to him. However he charged wrecklessly right into the homerun, getting sent flying. A Samurai nobody noticed the vulnerable position of the Heartless and slashed through in the air in quick succession, sheathing the blade as he landed next to Shiya, the heartless vanishing in a poof of smoke. With it's sword handle gripped it seemed to analyze Shiya for a moment before turning to face the threat of the Heartless.

(Shiya! A Samurai Nobody seems to have admired your reckless burning spirit and has decided to aide you. It can aide with one attack per turn but if it dies the Nobody forces will drop considerably)

Meanwhile, the Fortune Telling Heartless on the crystal orb did a fancy dance as it seemed to conjure magic before beckoning Shiya. He would suddenly felt a dark chill creep up on him and an evergrowing sense of solidifying in slower movements if he did not push it back.

(Shiya! The Fortuneteller is trying to curse you with a chilling dance! Roll a 13 or higher in INT to resist or you will take 20% damage and become paralyzed by the chilling magic. If you roll an 9 or below however you will also become completely frozen solid as well... Although that will not last long)

The other Heartless meanwhile breathed fire into his hand for a moment as if he was charging some powerful smash attack before going to deep fry Shiya into the ground.

(Shiya! The Fat Bandit is trying to slam you with his Fire Breather Smash, it's slow and somewhat predictable so you only need to roll above a 9 to evade, however if you were hampered or failed, then it will deal 40% fire damage directly to your life points)

Meanwhile a Soldier looking fellow kicks a Dusk into the air, followed by the Air Soldier grabbing it and piledriving it into the ground, making it vanish with the force. The Air Soldier flew up to recover but the Soldier saw the Keyblade Wielder and instinctively attacked with a powerful kick... While the Large Body scratched his head dumbfounded. They did not seem focused on Tressa or Olberic yet.

(Xion! The Soldier is attempting to hit you with a Dynamic Entry Flying Kick. Roll a 12 or higher to dodge or take 20% damage)

Shiya wound back his bat and rushed forward, getting ready to deliver what was clearly going to be the final blow on the flying shadowy enemy before it was abruptly stricken down  by... a samurai? 

"What?!" He exclaimed in shock at the sudden arrival of this mystery ally. The stick warrior stared in equal silent study at the Nobody while it analyzed him... only to be decidedly more exclamatory once it'd turned around to face down another heartless. "Wow! Thanks for stealing my kill, ya cheap noob!" Shiya "thanked" the warrior, apparently not very grateful for the new ally. Strange isn't it.

Unfortunately he didn't have much time to berate his newfound ally as a dancing enemy preparing to cast some sort of "magical" attack on him caught the exmage's attention. Watching it dance caused Shiya to feel a dark and uncomfortable chill crawling up his spine. "Nnnnope. Don't like that. YEET!" With a cry and a yeet, Shiya picked up a hefty rock he found lying on the ground before chucking it at the Fortuneteller heartless' crystal ball, throwing off it's attack successfully and evading most of it's negative effects.

(Bubble Shield: 65-10-20 = 35%)

"Woah!" Thankfully that redirection gave Shiya just enough time afterwards to notice and successfully the fatter heartless' fiery punch before he was pancaked! "You activated my trap card: 'STICK-Y SITUATION!'" Shiya spun and whipped around the tubby monster with surprising finesse; clearing to it's softer back area before wailing on it with two sufficiently pointy sticks wielded in each hand.

As Xion made her way to Group 1, she rolled away from a welcoming attack from one of the supposed commanders, sliding into her combat stance soon afterwards. Which one of these seemed the most troublesome among the trio...? Wait, that large one looked pretty powerful. Would it be better to single him out? ...Maybe so. These other two would probably become really bothersome otherwise.

Keyblade at the ready, Xion made her way towards the Soldier, thrusting at him before slashing horizontally. Afterwards, energy began to concentrate on the Keyblade, before it transferred to the black-robed girl. Moments after, that stored energy was unleashed as a spherical burst of energy that surged from her, striking any Heartless caught within the area.

“ ?! ”

Whoa, there's another thing she didn't knew she could do. Just...what was up with that? Was she just...relearning everything in the middle of battle? Or was the deep of her subconscious reaching for her combat expertise that may or may not have been? Was this...second nature to her? If this were any place other than a battlefield, she'd worry about the implications. For now, though...

Xion leaped backwards, pointing her Keyblade at the Heartless as it began to glow an eerie blue on its tip. An ice projectile suddenly shot from it, that soon splintered into small pieces that rained towards the group of Heartless.

p_1d20+2 (Xion's Blizzara! AoE, 12% damage, 50% chance of Freeze)

Landing on the ground, Xion noticed footsteps from behind her. A girl with a cap and a spear, and a burly man with a sword were coming towards her! Wasn't this the other people that 'moogle' guy hired to help...or something? Well, she hoped they were. For now, though, she needed to be careful...

"Hey, miss! Don't go in there alone! We've got your back! Olberic, take my rear!"

Tressa slips in front of Olberic and charges forward, spear extended. Olberic smiles and shakes his head, and turns to face a large group of Shadows, sword at the front. Sliding next to the girl in the black cloak with the odd key-like weapon, Tressa spun her spear, before posing beside this new girl. Looking over at the cloaked girl, Tressa flashed a warm smile, and a tip of the hat.

"Xion, right? Tressa Colzione, think we met before. Need a hand? Don't worry, this time, it's free of cost!"

Another spin of the spear, before Tressa charged in with her spear, stabbing forward with a swift, quick stab aimed at the Flying Soldier's chest.  Sure, she wasn't a trained fighter, but she'd be useful in a fight! She just had to try her best, right?

0Yxo4UP7p_1d20+1 (Tressa's Spear Jab! Deals 18% at the Air Soldier)

Suddenly, something clicked, in Tressa's head. Stepping back, Tressa slowly raised her voice, and the spear began to glow bright green. Around Tressa herself, a strong yellow aura emerged. The very air around the group of heroes began to shift, as the winds seemed to pick up and carry the glowing green lights, and form floating scythes around Tressa. Tressa's eyes glimmer, and she points the blades at the airborne Soldier, as the windy blades began to carve into the monster like a finely honed edge.

 p_1d20+2 (Tressa's crit Tradewinds! Deals a nasty 36% to the flyer!)

Turning back to Xion, Tressa nodded, before placing her hand to her chest. A white light glowed  summoning a ball of energy into her hand, and pushed it into Xion's hand. The energy surged with the black-robed girl, but unlike Tressa or Olberic, she wouldn't be able to contain the energy longer than one attack. Tressa flashed a thumbs up, before raising her spear once more.

(Xion has been granted a boon from the Orsterran Gods via Tressa's Share BP! Her next attack adds a +3 to the modifier.)

The Fortune Teller was successfully knocked off balance by the stone, stumbling on her Crystal Ball for a moment before correcting her position. The Fat Bandit was not able to match Shiya's agility as he was slapped around in the back. The Fortune Teller, finishing adjusting herself turned around just in time to be punched so hard by Shiya she flew off her Crystal Ball and onto the ground. In the next moment as she tried to recover the Samurai came down from the sky and thrusted his blade right into her midrift, the moster turning into dark fog as a heart flew into the skies... As Shiya was kill stealed again by the Samurai Nobody in... spite? Can it even feel that? Either way the Fat Bandit seemed to notice where Shiya went and turned around and attempted to breathe extremely heated breath on him.

(Shiya! The Fat Bandit is attempting to Fire Breath you! Roll a 12 or higher in DEX to avoid a nasty 100% burn and 20% damage)

The first attack of Xion's missed it's mark completely as the Soldier nimbly jumped back but he got hit by the next combo and stunned by the blast from Xion along with his pals, all just standing there in a daze... Although the air one was still somehow air borned. This left them all subject to the potent freeze that came after. Both soldiers were frozen solid, the flying one falling right into Tressa's stabbing range, being poked repeatedly before shattered into darkness and a heart that floated up on with the wind itself. The Large Body was however very not frozen, just scratching his head at being free now.

Just then the ground began to rumble, the very earth shaking violently as a noise came from the castle. Out ran the boy that headed inside earlier, dodging between the heartless, barely touching the ground as he soared and jumped out of the way of plant like stalks constantly trying to hit him from below the earth before going back down. He jumped over the other three groups of generals who got hit by the stalks, being dragged inside of them and vanishing completely. Closing in on Xion and the Octopaths, the boy threw his darker Keyblade at the back of the head of the Large Body to try and make it stumble forward a bit.

WkrJtiktp_1d20+2(Strike Raid Assault on the Large Body, 18%, adds a +1 to his next attack Modifier)

As the Large Body stumbled forward he resummoned Oblivion to his hand before performing a spinning attack with both to eradicate the Soldier into a Heart and further damage the Large Body before holding Oathkeeper straight up and declaring "THUNDER!" and called down white bolts of lightning that surged around all the surrounding Heartless and evaporating them as the wild plasma surged, although it noticably avoided making contact with Tressa, Olberic or Xion before the mysterious teen landed.

"Xion! You're still alright! I was getting concerned for you, Axel and the others when that portal opened up!" he declared with a big smile, seeming to recogonize Xion instantly. However before he could celebrate more another rumbling came and a stalk came up and devoured the Fat Bandit Shiya was working on.

"First we are going to need to deal with an old Heartless though," he said as he turned around. And the rumbling intensifies as a coffin attached to a plant bursted out of the ground and it's plant like arms emerged with it. "Focus on the arms for now. If we go right for the body it will get the jump on us instead!" he called back in advice as the Shadows still gathered around the giant Emblem Heartless... Who seemed more focused on the ones still with hearts. It let out an extremely toxic powder from it's spore that scattered across the battlefield.

“ Y-yeah, that’s me! Nice to meet you. ”

After the introductions, Xion whacked away a couple of the swarming smaller Heartless while Tressa was occupied attacking the bigger ones. Jeez, those guys were pretty persistent, weren’t they? Hopefully once they took down the big ones, things would quiet down a bit.

Xion got ready to fire off another spell, but a big rumble alerted her to something else. From the abandoned castle, came a blonde boy, probably the one they were sent here to bring him to the Life Sphere. He was pretty nimble, dodging all those stalks chasing him, and...he was closing in this way? He was! And he dismissed the surrounding Heartless with such ease…!

--Wait, he knew her? He called by her name, and he seemed to be on good terms with her. Xion inwardly cursed her faulty memory. He seemed so happy to see her, and yet…

Reunions could wait, however, as a giant Heartless appeared . A face that invoked a bit of familiarity, sure, but still, much of it was still a blank. The boy had pointed out to attack the legs for the moment and avoid striking the body.

“ All right. Let’s try either attacking all the legs at once while avoiding the body. or target a specific leg. ”

Xion got ready to fight, and then...she received a gift. A sudden surge of power coursed through her! She turned around, and saw Tressa flashing a thumbs up to her. Understanding what happened, Xion gave Tressa a smile and a nod in response before turning back to the giant Heartless. She put her Keyblade forward, as the tip of the sword began glowing blue again…

wRyL5eA9p_1d20 [Spore resistance.]

p_1d20 [She's gonna be poisoned for...5 turns.]

Despite being affected by the spores, Xion kept charging her spell. The BP Boost Tressa gave her transferred to the Keyblade, as now the entire blade had the blue glow, and the weapon in itself was coated in a yellow aura.

“ Freeze! ”

Xion fired off a supercharged Blizzara, the chunks of ice coming out faster and bigger then they would usually be.

p_1d20+5 [Xion’s BP-Boosted Blizzara! AoE, 12% damage, 50% chance of inflicting Freeze]

After that, she...coughed. But after that, she moved forward, pushing herself to gradually close the distance between her and the Leechgrave. Midway through her run, Xion twirled her Keyblade and hurled it at one of the legs. The Keyblade would move a fair distance before flying back to its user, similar to a boomerang.

Shiya stood still for a second after landing, hand raised to scratch his chin in thought... despite the fact that they were kinda in the middle of an active warzone. "What's another stick pun I can use?" ...Seriously? "Ugh, I knew I should've prepared a list or something. I'm not used to being confined to just one weapon's worth of material!" While momentarily absolved into his very non-priority predicament, the ex-mage barely turned back to notice the Fortune Teller heartless being stricken down by... that same Samurai from before?!

"Oh come on! Stop kill stealing bro!" He shouted incredulously, not at all appreciative of the help no matter how much he may or may not have needed it. With a growl, Shiya shook his fist angrily at his Nobody ally... once more too distracted to realize there was still another enemy to deal with. An enemy in particular who would begin spitting literal fire the teen's way!

"HOT HHOT -- YEOWCH!!!" Stop drop and roll, Shiya! Stop drop and roll! Shiya yelled in panic as his body erupted into flames from the attack... yeah, that was gonna smart for a while. After he'd managed to pat out of the majority of the fires on his clothing though, the scarlet sorcerer sprung back into action towards the Large Body. "Alright! Just try and kill steal this one then, jer-"

-Aaaaaand then Roxas came in and obliterated the whole lot of them.

...

Shiya threw a stick onto the ground with a huff, crossing his arms over his still slightly on fire shirt. "I was kidding! I'm gonna report the lot of you for stream sniping." Good luck with that, buddy. "You too, boyband." He sent an empty glare Roxas' way, but it'd hardly mean anything in the face of the newest monstrosity to attack the group. A darkness...plant...coffin...chain monster...

"I don't know why I get out of bed for this."

Shiya groaned as the poison spores began to somehow take root within the already burning patches of his body, but nevertheless managed to stay standing. "Tis merely a flesh wound!" He yelled out before bumrushing the main coffin body of the Leechgrave heartless. He was gonna beat the photosynthesis out of this dark plant monster with sticks! How was that for irony!?

"Who are you calling boy band? I don't even know how to play an instrument!" Roxas called out. "... Why are you using sticks, anyway? Did you lose your keyblade?... Who are you?" Roxas asked, realizing he did not recogonize him.

"W-wait, meet me? You really don't recogonize me... How is that even possible...?" He thought all of Xion's problems were over. This made no sense. He looked really down until he looked back at the rustling of the giant Heartless. Right, they can talk this over later. Right now they had to take care of the leader.

The plant monster's arms were frozen in place by Xion's move, the plant monster trying to pull them up. Only for two of it's arms to get destroyed in the blast. "Hey! I told you not to do that!" Roxas called as Shiya tried bumrushing the coffin. The coffin shook at the impact of the blows before suddenly a claw would burst out and slash at Shiya. It would then try to snatch him up and drag him inside the coffin.

(Shiya! The Graveleech is retaliating with a Grave Slash. Roll a 14 or higher in DEX or take 40 damage. It will follow this up with Grave Situation, pulling you into the coffin and hitting you repeatedly with darkness spells for an additional 40% damage. You need to roll a 14 or higher to evade it too)

Suddenly the ground would rumble from underneath Xion before a tentacle would burst up from beneath her and try to crush her inside it's grasp before attempting to pull her further in.

(Xion! Roll a 14 or higher in DEX or take 20 damage and Paralysis from the tentacle trying to drag you into the flower. Normally this also grapples but this time it won't for...)

"Oh no you don't! There is no way I am letting you do that to Xion too!" he declared.... wait, too? Regardless of implications Roxas, a cloak of light would surround both Shiya and Xion and Roxas before beams of light would come from the sky, dissipating remaining Heartless and heavily damaging the Leechgrave. The attack destroyed it's last two legs before it fell to the ground. "Alright, get it now!" he winced a bit from the lingering poisons in the spores, but hey, no pain no gain.

(Shiya and Xion! Roxas has used Magic Hour! Due to their Light Weakness, all the Leechgrave's parts take 50 damage and he is stunned for the round and all grapples are broken)

Despite Shiya's ferocity while attacking the plant-based heartless, his irresponsibility with heeding Roxas' warning would not go unpunished. Unable to retreat fast enough to withdraw from the Leechgrave's range, the wood warrior would find himself on the painful end of the stick for once. Snatched up with painful speed, Shiya could do nothing more but writhe in pain while being swept into the coffin and repeatedly damaged before being spit back out.

As he finally broke out and landed in a heap though, the admittedly hurt mage was not yet deterred. On the contrary, the pain only made Shiya even more keen to deliver it right back to that herb abomination!
