Kingdom Hearts: X-Blade Academy VOL I ( On hold, resuming around December 20th! )

Zero/One & The End of Substitution

Slater closed his eye's. He lunged so fast that the boy didn't notice. There was an HP Bar above both of them. So far Slater's was at 40, it's max. There was also a picture of his face. Then, there was the Boy, a picture of his face, and his HP. It said Critical Mode! at the top. The boy's HP had gone down by five. Slater had just noticed that their outfits were glowing green instead of blue. This happened to show their HP.

The boy fell to the ground in shock. Slater had sliced behind him. There were petals in a row on the ground. Slater walked toward's the boy. "I'm not one of those goodie-goodie student's. I fight hard!" The boy said. Slater blocked the attack toward's him with his Keyblade. They were face to face, the boy was grinning. Slater smiled too. Slater put all of his force on the Keyblade, pushing the boy down to the ground.

Slater summoned The OathKeeper, and started to whale down on the boy's Keyblade. "Gng!" He grunted. The boy backflipped back. "Freeze!" He said. Slater simply swung through the tiny chunk of ice. "Freeze!" Slater yelled back. A much bigger ball of ice flew toward's him at a greater speed. The boy screamed. It hit him, and he blew backward's to the wall. He fell down. His suit turned yellow.

Slater readied his Keyblade, and he was about to make the final blow, when the boy slashed him. "Ooh!" The crowd of student's said. It had fire on it, and it made Slater's HP go down to red. "Ready to give up?" The boy asked. "You asked for this!" Slater said. Shard's of light bursted out of Slater. His suit had turned a light, great, vivid red. Red, powerfull spark's were coming out of his hand's, and his Keyblade's were now red as well. Slater upper-slashed the boy up, and he was in the air. Slater crossed his Keyblade's. He sprung up, and had the boy in between his Keyblade's.

He closed the Keyblade's, cutting the boy. Then he air combo'd him by slashing him and using great finisher's of force, red spark's flying everywhere, the crowd looking at them astonished, and Slater beating up the kid. His HP was going down drastically, untill the boy fell down to the ground.Slater charged up both of his Keyblade's, and before the boy could get up, Slater smashed the boy with his two Keyblade's. His HP had hit zero. The crowd cheered, and brought the boy up. "Aww I lost!" The boy said. "You sure made a really good opponent." Slater said. The boy smiled. They transported to the central computer mesa.

Slater accessed the Terminal there. "You guy's ready to leave?" Slater asked. His Keyblade's de-summoned. "Huh?" A pixelated Keyblade exactly like the one's the kid's had was in his hand. "ITS YOUR TO KEEP." The same robot said. "Thank you!" Slater said. The terminal Scanned each of them, and they were surfing in data. "Woah!" Slater said. He was riding on his new Keyblade. They all appeared back at where they started. "Woah, that was awesome." One of the student's said. "Okay everyone, time to go back to the Academy." "Aww! But your the best sub ever!" The boy said to him. "Heh, thank's." Slater started to blush. They flew back to the academy.

Slater had just dropped all of the kid's off, when he noticed something. There was some sort of entrance to a hot spring in the lobby room. He went into it.

There was a beautiful graden, a tea house, bamboo, lantern's everything a good hotspring needed. He saw most of the gang in three hot tub's. "Hey Slater!" Roy said. "Oh, hey! Can i come in?" Slater asked. It was getting cold. "Yeah, go change in that bathroom over there." Roy pointed to the stall. He changed into his bathing suit, and ran back and jumped into the hot tub. "Sure is nice out here.." Roy said. "Yeah." Slater stared into the sky.

"Hey, what's that?" Slater asked. He saw a white circle drop onto his nose. "It's snow!" Slater said. "Snow? Already?" Roy said.

"Yeah!" Slater said.
