I'll Protect You No Matter What

What Makes A True Hero

My Pov

We ran to the boat, but it began going toward the Underdrome before we could stop him.

Hercules: "What's wrong?"

Me: "Hades is up to his old tricks. He's manipulating Auron into fighting you."

Goofy: "He's using some kind of statue."

Hercules: "You know something? That sounds kind of familiar..." We all looked at him. Hades may be using the statue to hold Auron's free will hostage."

Donald: "What do we do?"

Hercules: "See if you can find that statue. It's gotta be somewhere in the Underworld."

Zack: "We're on it!" That's when Hades suddenly appeared behind us.

Hades: "Tell me you're not thinking of leaving. You've got a match coming up."

Hercules: "I'll fight Auron in the final. One on one." Was Herc crazy?!

Hades: "Oh, you will?" Hades turned his back to us.

Hercules: "I'll draw things out to buy you guys time."

Sora: "But-"

Hercules: "Just hurry back. I know you guys can do it!"

Hades: "Congratulations! You've got a deal."

Hercules: "Thanks."

Hades: "On 1 condition! The Keyblade bearer, the Princess and their trusty friends have to meet the winner in one final clash, whaddya say?"

Hercules: "That'll drive the crowd wild..."

Hades: "It'd better. I promised the crowd the event of their afterlives." Hercules got on the boat and they went to the Underdrome.

Goofy: "Where do you think the statue could be?"

Zack: "If I had to guess, probably in Hades's Chamber."We hurried toward the chamber. I looked toward the table and saw the statue.

Me: "There it is!" Sora went to grab it, but some kind of red electricity shocked him. I tried to pull him off of it, but I got shocked too. Zack, Goofy and Donald tried to help but got shocked just like us.

Donald: "What's going on?!" That's when we started hearing Auron's voice saying multiple things.

It is not too late!

Let us turn back!

Yes, but I... I cannot accept it.

Where is the sense in all this?

But... there must be another way!

Your deaths will mean nothing!

You must live!

Me: "Poor Auron..."

Sora: "I get it. This is the stuff that belongs in Auron's heart."

Zack: "He's like other SOLDIERS. We have hard lives. We need to give back to him." We hurried back the Underworld entrance and then took the boat to the Underdrome. We got there and saw Auron had Hercules pinned down.

Me: "Auron, stop!"

Donald: "Auron, we have something that belongs to you!" Sora took out the statue and threw it over Auron. It exploded and tiny particles of light were absorbed into Auron's body. Auron stopped what he was doing and then looked toward us.

Auron: "Sora... Hikari... Zack... Donald... Goofy."

All: "Auron!" He was back to his old self.

Hades: "Why those little-! Ugh, prisoner! What happened to our mutual agreement. I can give you a clean slate, but you gotta to work with me."

Auron: "Maybe you didn't hear me. This is my story and you're not part of it." Hades was furious. He disappeared in a blaze of fire and reappeared at our level.

Hades: "That's it! This game is over. I've played by the rules so far. Okay, I confess! I was hoping Wonderboy would lose, but it was till a fair fight. C'mon, is that really so wrong?"

Sora: "Really? A fair fight?"

Hades: "Laugh, laugh, laugh all you want! Because the laughing is about to stop. Wanna know why? Because now we're gonna play by my rules." He snapped his fingers and all at once, Meg was hovering over a pool of souls.

Hercules: "Meg!"

Meg: "Hercules!"

Hades: "Hey, I warned you right at the get-go. You don't compete, you lose the girl." Hades snapped his fingers and Meg fell down. Hercules jumped after her. "Looks like Wonderboy has dropped out of the standings." Every single one of us was shooting daggers at him.

Zack: "We're still here, Hades!"

Me: "And we're going to make you pay for this!" Unfortunately, we still couldn't inflict any damage on him.

Sora: "Why can't we beat him?!"

Donald: "This is impossible!"

Auron: "Because it's his Underworld."

Goofy: "Gee, then how do we beat him?"

Voice: "I think a true hero should be able to help." We all looked to see Hercules, glowing with a heavenly aura, with Meg in his arms. "I owe you one Hades. You helped me remember what makes a true hero; the strength of his heart." Pegasus took Meg out of the Underworld.

Hades: "How dare you get a happy ending! How DARE you!" We could beat him now. Then my clothes changed. I now wore a tanktop consisting of a white chest with a gold line of tiny dangle charms, a royal blue mid-section lined in gold shaped like diamonds, and a bottom composed of dark indigo and purple with a curly gold line with rubies, sapphires, and emerald. The top was held on with dark blue-black, thin strings tying onto the back of the gold neck piece that came with a single sapphire in the center. It came with white puffed sleeves with gold mid-sections and royal blue, glittering cloth on the bottom. A layered skirt that began with a shimmering blue, lined in gold part, then the next layer was a shimmering dark purple and adorned with crescent moons and big gem markings. On the side was a light blue colored cloth attached by two parts of the skirt. My heels turned into a pair of gold sandals with silver toe and heels. There were tiny gems decorating them, and on top was a shimmery blue segment with gems and gold parts to match the lining. On my head was a thin gold band that went over the forehead with a big red diamond in the center, a silver banded tiara with gold detailing on top and a moon with gems on it. Sprouting from my back was a pair of white fan-like, feathery wings with many gold and colored gems adorning them, and silver earrings with rubies and tiny blue gems(Look at Aikatsu; Mysterious Virgo Coord).

Hercules: "Hikari!" He shot a large sphere of light into air. I flew up and into the sphere. I manifested my power into the sphere and strengthened its power. I popped out of the sphere and shot it toward Hades. It weakened whatever protected Hades from damage. We were able to attack and defeat him without much difficulty now. In the end, Hades ended up falling into the Sea of Souls. Auron thanked us fir helping him, but he said it as 'meddling'. We went back to the destroyed coliseum and saw it was night out. It looked beautiful. That's when I noticed something with the stars.

Me: "Guys, look!" They looked and we saw the stars make silhouettes of me, Sora, Zack, Donald and Goofy.

Phil: "Looks like Zeus recognizes you all as true heroes."

Zack: "At last! True herohood!" All of them were jumping for joy. Me, I just looked up and admired the view.
