Across worlds and time

38

Chris's p.o.v ( just before the start of the mission and where we left Riku and the others)

I was walking along a shoreline near Montuak. I came here with Percy and Harry when I first met them over four years ago now. The last few weeks had been stressful and Vanitas and Lou being together again wasn't helping any. I had been away from camp since Sora visited me in my dreams. I spent time with my dad and I wished that Sora and the others could be here right now with me they'd be able to console me some how in these times. I sighed at that notion, "I should now better than that especially since I told them what I could of the truth about me.

It more than likely widened the rift between us. I took out my wayfinder that Sora had just given me before we dove into the sleeping worlds. I hugged it close to my chest. "Gods and spirits protect them all" I prayed

Then I heard in my brain. "Hey boss don't look so gloomy" it was Snowdrop, my peaguses that I'd rescued from the Princess Andromeda three years ago

On his back was Lestra. Higher up I saw Harry, Percy, Beckenderof, and Vanitas on other pegusi. "It's time" I simply said

"Yes" Lestra said

I nodded and grabbed her hand and hauled myself up onto Snowdrop's back. We headed towards the Princess Andromeda. I really hated that ship. The plan was for us to sneek onto the ship undetected and strap on explosives to the engines. Then we get a safe distance away using the ocean Beckenderof and Lestra would set off the explosives once we got to Kairi. Van would be responsible for getting her safety while the rest of us took care of the rest of the mission. He would take her away via D.C.'s  then come back to help us finish the mission. He volunteered for this two days ago because he and Percy turned out to be partners and a very deadly combination of skills.

We soon landed on the VIP deck of the ship. We sent our pegusi back home to the stables in camp. Van went to the third level second room to the left of the chandelier which was where Kairi was being kept hidden. The rest of us made a beeline for the boiler room. Andour work began. Then ten minutes into this Van came back and started to help us with priming the bombs. "I'll get that man back for everything he did to everyone" I heard Van curse under his breath.

I rolled my eyes as I taped another glass vial of Greek fire to the control panel. Then I heard foot movement coming our way. As did the others. "How much longer do we need till there primed?" Percy asked

"Ten minutes" Beckenderof answered

"That's not enough time" Van growled

It was right they would have already have disarmed the bombs before we even got to twenty feet away from the blast zone. Percy, Harry, Van, and I shared a look knowing what we had to do. "Can you finish up here" I asked

"Yes, but..." Lestra started to say.

"Be right back" Percy said and we all ran off

Once we came to a four way fork we split up going each in different directions. I soon encountered a group telkines. I summoned my sword and slashed all of them except the one who dropped his lunch box. I spared him for two reasons. One his lunch box was cool looking and two he could raise the alarm to put all of the focus on me and give the others time to finish up.

Not two minutes later the alarms started going off and all sorts of nasties started swarming the hallways. I slashed my way through all of them.

With Van

I heard the alarms go off so either Chris, Percy, or Harry had set them off. I then came a sight that I certainly wasn't expecting to say the least. It was the seven lights and a few others. They where being escorted by a bunch of dracane somewhere. And to be honest I didn't want to find out where, so instead of continuing the act like I had to do with the old man I just went in and helped them. I uncapped shadow stalker my celestial bronze blade and slashed at the monsters and sent them back to Tarturus. "So this means we are almost even" I said to the eleven lights
