Enjoy! ( I used this pic because I wanted Roxas's inner darkness to look like him) Also, I'm so sorry for updating for over nearly a month. I was going through a huge writer's block and had another story I was working on pull me away. But now, I'm back.

------------------------

The sky was red in the town of Magnolia and the town looked like it had just faced a huge attack, buildings were broken down and it looked like there were some bodies crushed under rubble and buildings. There was a crimson glow in the middle of the town and Elfman had jumped up into the air and his arm glowed a gold colour and it became black and muscular.

"Beast Arm..." He exclaimed but a fiery, crimson magic claw had slammed into him and sent him flew to a building.

Mira had ran to him. "Elfman, are you okay?" she asked.

"Mira run." he weakly said.

They saw the crimson creature slowly walked up to them, crouched on all fours. The creature was blood red mixed with black streaks swirled into it and outlined in orange. It had a black mask-like face with empty glowing white eyes and mouth. Its hands and feet were clawed and mostly orange. However, the most noticeable and eye widening features were two long pointy red ears on top of its head and the four long red tails swooshing around behind it. Crimson flames blazed around its outline. It's body looked more like a fox.

Suddenly an orange-red magical circle appeared and the creature held it's breath and it's stomach grew and he was about to let out the attack.

"ROXAS!" Mira yelled. "Don't do it!" she yelled. "Don't let the power control you!?" she exclaimed.

"Nine-Tails' Howl!" Roxas exclaimed in a mixture of his voice along with a demonic voice. He shot a huge blast of crimsion fox flames from his mouth and it was speeding to both Mira and Elfman. However a figure had jumped into the fire and blocked it.

Erza had glared at Roxas in her Flame Empress Armor. "Stop it Roxas! Come to your senses!" she exclaimed.

However another Roxas who wasn't in his Nine-Tailed state had stood in front of Erza. "Erza, I'm right here!" he exclaimed. "That's not me!" however it would seem that Titania had not heard his voice and she charged towards the other Roxas and she tried to slice him but he dodged them, mostly because Erza was holding back. The other Roxas that couldn't be heard quickly realized that he would see parts of the buildings through himself, which meant that he didn't exist.

"What's going on?" he thought.

Meanwhile, the Nine-Tailed State Roxas had swung of his crimson tails at Erza which sent her to a wall and she dropped her red blade on the ground.

"T-this can't be happening." the real Roxas said in fear and he stared his shaking hands. "What is going on!?"

The other Roxas was suddenly attacked by large waterball, which pushed him back a bit. Then he was encased in ice spikes and Gray who was topless stood beside Ariel. "Calm down already, Roxas!" Ariel yelled.

"Forget it Ariel, this is why he wanted us to keep him out of the Nine-Tailed State, he can't control himself." Gray said.

"As if, the real Roxas is still in there!" Ariel exclaimed. The fox-shaped Roxas then used sheer strength alone to broke the ice off his body. Soon he let out a hollowing roar of that sent out raging winds, engulfing both Gray and Ariel.
