Kingdom Hearts: Saving Life in Another World

Chapter 48: Brothers in arms

Reinhard, Felt, Old Man Rom, Garfiel, and Otto all five quickly go around the city and save a couple of citizens from both the heartless and the Witch cult. Reinhard and Old Man Rom work together to take care of the witch cultists or heartless while Garfiel, Felt, and Otto make sure the citizens are alright before sending them off to go find a safe place to hideout. While they were going around the city, the group managed to take a small moment to rest.

"How are you two holding up?"

"My amazin' self's aight."

"Yeah, I'm also alright Reinhard-san. How are you and your friend doing?"

"We are alright, though I would wish for Felt-sama to not be in the battlefield with us."

Reinhard says this as he was watching Felt and Old Man Rom speak, having a bad feeling that something could happen to his lady. Garfiel and Otto both looked at each other for a brief moment before nodding, both of them understanding Reinhard's fear.

"It is understandable that you would want Felt-sama safe, being that she is a young girl and a royal candidate yet you must also keep in mind of her own choice, Reinhard-san."

"Ya, she ain't some defenseless lil' girl, she's strong'n her own right."

Reinhard looked at both Otto and Garfiel before turning towards Felt, understanding their point that his lady is capable of herself yet he still feels the need to protect her. He looks at his Dragon Sword Reid for a moment before speaking his mind in regards to what his two allies had told him.

"You both make good points, Felt-sama is capable but as her knight, I just want to protect her from any danger thrown her way."

Otto and Garfiel both nodded in understanding, Garfiel knows how the Sword Saint feels since he is the Shield of Sanctuary while Otto also understood this since he wishes to protect his friends despite him being weak. As the three continued a small conversation regarding the situation they find themselves, they all hear screams coming from a hallway nearby. Felt and Old Man Rom both approached the three boys with their weapons ready.

"We should check that out."

"Agreed."

Reinhard nodded at what Old Man Rom said and quickly the group headed towards the hallway only for something to hit Otto, Garfiel, and Old Man Rom. Reinhard was able to grab Felt and move out of the way in order to avoid the attack.

As Reinhard landed on his feet from jumping away from the attack, he set Felt down before the two watched a heartless with the main body being a decrepit, black coffin with pale gold lining while being surrounding by a large silver chain, has two large, silver nails driven partway into it and has a small hole near its top where a single, glowing yellow eye peers out.

"What the hell is that?"

"Seems like a heartless. Don't worry Felt-sama, I will protect you."

Reinhard looked at the Leechgrave for a moment before trying to pull his main sword only to see that the heartless is not worthy of the Dragon Sword Reid. This disappointed him since he wished to use his main sword yet he understood that this heartless isn't too big of a threat for him. As Reinhard was going to pull out a basic sword he brought with him, Garfiel and Old Man Rom got back up and went to face off the Leechgrave only for a couple Tentaclaws to appear out of nowhere to attack the pair.

"Da fuck!"

"Careful boy!"

Old Man Rom quickly moved towards Garfiel's position before hitting away the Tentaclaw that was attempting to attack Garfiel from his back while he was distracted. Garfiel noticed this and quickly turned towards the one Tentaclaw trying to attack Old Man Rom.
