Elsa charged at Sora again, confident that she will be able to kill him within a few seconds yet surprisingly Sora managed to deflect all of her attacks. The two continued with this for a bit until a couple of heartless appeared next to them and attacked the two.

Both Sora and Elsa instinctively stopped fighting each other and focused on the heartless. The two easily took care of the heartless without any trouble but just as they were going to return fighting each other again, six darkside heartless appeared.

"My My, isn't this quite the development. Sora, my dear, would you like to do the honors of taking care of these outsiders or should I?"

"Allow me to handle them."

Sora spoke with confidence while approaching the six giant heartless preparing to attack him. He looked at them and smiled before jumping high while dodging the attack. As he jumps high up, he points his keyblade at one of the darkside heartless before summoning Water. He managed to summon a powerful water ball directly at one of the darkside. Once it hit, the darkside faded away with the heart appearing only for a couple seconds before fading away as well.

"Sora, my dear, why does the hearts appear? I took one of this creatures down before yet no heart appeared."

Sora looked at Elsa for a moment before looking back at the heartless, dodging each attack thrown directly at him. As he was dodging every attack, he began explaining to Elsa on the heartless. He emphasizes on the keyblade's importance that it is the only weapon known to actually be able to truly take out the heartless by the way a heart appears.

"Ah, so when a heart appears, that means it is truly taken out?"

"Yes Elsa."

"Interesting, you have sparked my interest even more." Elsa spoke without her usual menacing tone, which made Sora slightly pleased. Sora took down two more darkside heartless with one of them by jumping towards it's head and hitting it with all of his strength, causing it to disappear with a heart appearing. The second darkside was attempting to hit the ground with a close fist, alert Sora that it is trying to summon more heartless.

He went in between the attack and managed to deflect it before shouting "Thunderaga" which summoned very powerful thunder magic that destroyed the giant heartless within a couple of hits. Elsa was most impressed by this, which caused her fighting urges to take over, charging directly at one of the giant heartless. She went for the bowel area of the heartless in hopes of something happening this time yet her full strength didn't do much damage. She noticed this and quickly dodged one of the attacks directed at her direction.

As she dodged the attack, she smiled at the heartless as she moved quickly to do a barrage of attacks in hopes of one of them being the finishing blow on its bowel section. Sora handled the other darkside type heartless on his own, dodging every attack with ease before charging at one of them to take them out with one swift attack. Before he could land a hit, he noticed one of the others attempting to attack him from his side. He turned towards the direction of the attack and defended himself, taking the hit and landing on his feet unscaved.

Seems like they are getting a bit more smarter...yet I shouldn't have too much trouble.

Sora looked at the darkside heartless and charged at them once again, confident that if he uses the more powerful version of thunder then he should be able to at least take out one of the darkside heartless, leaving the other easily to take care of. Since his power was still increasing back to full strength, all he needed was to buy himself some time.


Subaru and Rem continued to cover each other with Subaru somehow able to take on some of the strong heartless with powerful magic while Rem killed the Mabeast with ease. As the two were working together, Subaru remembered that the puppy would appear at any moment. He quickly told Rem that they should probably start getting the little girl to safety to which Rem agreed. Subaru quickly ran to the little girl to pick her up and start running out of the area.
