A loud whistle caused you and [BOC] to turn towards the sound along with everyone else. The King stood unhappily in front of the door beside Prince Rex who had whistled. All fighting had stopped and the crowd parted. The guards drifted backwards towards the King so they stood behind him. His security force pulled up to stand next to him. Dhannon's eye was bruising and her shirt was burned. Racer, Carly, and Riley just looked plain beat up. Ryan wasn't even up there.

"So you're really going to betray us Ryan? After all we've been through?" Dhannon asked aloud. You looked around yourself to see Ryan standing bravely between the girl who was fighting Dhannon earlier and another guy. His glasses were gone so you could see his hypnotic almost pastel green eyes. Ryan didn't reply to her.

"You look gorgeous [Name], don't you know that it's bad luck for the groom to see the dress before the wedding though?" Rex stated at you, "Come here."

[BOC] lightly pulled you behind him. He had already picked up his weapon and he looked ready to fight again.

"I said come here." Rex commanded with more malice in his voice.

"Pfft like she's honestly gonna listen to an idiot like you." You heard Vanitas scoff.

Rex's gaze snapped to Vanitas in a glare. Vanitas took a step towards him in response and Rex seemed to flinch back some. The King chuckled and shook his head. "Son calm down." He took a step forward and smiled, "I think there's been a mistake. Let's just stop all this nonsense and talk it over hmm? Besides, I'm very interested in all of your fighting talents."

"They will not be tricked Uncle. You've stolen someone very dear to them, and they aren't likely to forget." An unfamiliar voice said. A figure in a dark clock with a hood over his head stepped forward. He pulled back his hood and you watched as the King's perfect complexion began to pale.

"W-What are you doing here?!" The King cried.

"I've come to claim what's rightfully mine." He replied.

"K-Kill him!" The King roared, "S-Somebody!"

Racer cracked his knuckles, but before he could speed towards his target Ryan threw his arms sending out a blast of air. It caught Racer and threw him out the door. Ryan did the same to Carly, Riley, and Dhannon. He used his powers again to, gently, blow a group of four plus himself out after them.

"Enough. Let's settle this now. Just me and you." The cloaked man demanded.

The King seemed hesitant but finally he nodded, "Alright Noctis. I'll fight you, but when I kill you I'll have you know that everyone in this room on your side will go to jail for the rest of their miserable lives." His gaze turned to you, "And [Name] will marry Rex."

"Fine", Noctis agreed. He tore off his cloak and you noticed his sword hanging from his hip, "When I win uncle I expect you to back down fairly. The crown becomes mine and your security force will be imprisoned."

The King chuckled and took a sword from one of the guards. Before you knew what happened a flash of red ran to Noctis and embraced him.

"Kairi?!" You cried. She didn't even seem to notice you though. Noctis gave her a brief hug, then he leaned forward and pressed his lips to hers once. Tifa walked forward and pulled Kairi away.

"It's a long story." [BOC] said noticing your confusion.

Immediately the battle began. The King lunged at Noctis, but he quickly avoided it and counterattacked. Surprisingly, the King wasnt awful. He held up fairly well for the most part. Unluckily for him though, his nephew Noctis was brilliant with a sword. Attack after attack Noctis continued to lunge for the quickly tiring King. With one final blow Noctis knocked the sword from the King's hand and held his blade to his Uncle's throat. At the sight of his father losing Rex turned and ran out the door like the coward he was.

"I win." Noctis panted. The King had his hands held up in surrender. His face was drawn angrily as he glared at Noctis. "The crown is mine."

Those fighting alongside your friends cheered loudly at hearing this. They hugged and thanked your friends. Noctis didn't drop his gaze from the King's and the King didn't move either.

Your friend's all rushed over to you and began to gush over you. Millions of questions were asked and you honestly only got to answer half of them because of how fast they were being thrown at you. You couldn't tear your eyes away from the King though. He was glaring at you intently.

"Are you ok??" Kairi asked worriedly. She stood directly in front of you with her back to the King and Noctis. You nodded and looked back up at the King and realized it wasn't you he was glaring at. It was Kairi.
