In a cataclysm known as the Nightfall, the worlds were almost completely destroyed by a harrowing surge of darkness.
In the shadows of the ensuing chaos a new group has taken shape. Led by an Aegyl named Kalos, the 11th Hour touts an esoteric knowledge of how to combat the darkness and restore the worlds. They might be the worlds’ best chance at survival; but nobody really knows enough about them to confirm or deny their claims.
On the brink of collapse, the universe holds its breath in anticipation. Of restoration? Of destruction? It is up to individuals like yourself to decide.

Jawn had seen himself being sorounded along with the person who saved him. He put his swords away and took out his staff, knowing this was better. Getting closer to Max he went back to back with him staff at the ready and said, "Think of this as me repaying for you saving me"
than he quickly dashed around in a circular motion with the staff hitting the minute bombs coming at them and knocking them away before they had a chance to explode. Right when he got the five out the staff snapped and turned into nunchucks and he jumped into the heard of heartless once more swinging at them each one by one
Max continued pushing his way through the Heartless until he reached his warpike, picking it up and slashing it through the head of a heartless that had managed to come up behind him in a hole in his whirlwind of water.
That was when the minute bombs appeared, running after them with descending numbers over their heads. The other guy pulled a staff off of his back, standing back-to-back with Max.
"Think of this as me repaying you for saving me," he said before leaping out and running around, swinging wildly at the small heartless, knocking most of them away. However, one managed to get through his string of attacks, and Max lunged forward, stabbing out at the one minute bomb he'd missed, skewering it and turning it into black mist.
Then he looked over at where Erika was, noticing a bunch of minute bombs coming after her and a newcomer there as well....
And all of their numbers were below 3.
"Dammit!" he muttered, taking off running after them, gathering the water from nearby and using it to knock the minute bombs away from her and the new guy. She was the only real friend he'd made since his home had been destroyd, and he wasn't about to lose her.
The minute bombs he knocked away from the two exploded mid-air, away from all of them, not doing any damage at all. With that threat gone, he turned back to where the Bolt Towers were, seeing more minute bombs coming down the hallway, followed by a small number of Soldiers and a swarm of Shadows.
"We can't win this," he muttered, looking down the way they had come, seeing some shadows down that way as well. They were trapped.
Then, he heard a roar echo through the hallways that shook him down to his bones. The roar had come from the other side of the swarm of heartless. It sounded extremely close, but there wasn't anything there......
Then, a shimmer in the middle of the space behind the heartless caught Max's attention, and right before his eyes materialized a white, one-armed dragon. The dragon reared back on his back legs and swiped at the shadows and soldiers right in front of him, his claws ripping through them and turning them to black mist instantly. Then, he took in a deep breath and spewed out fire at the rest, burning them and covering them from view with fire.
Then, he closed his mouth, cutting off the furious flames, and came back down on all three of his feet as the heartless turned to this new threat.
Max took the opportunity to turn to Erika, reaching over for her.
"You okay?" he asked her,"Come on. Let's get away from these things. That's a white dragon.....he looks like he's from my homeworld. I don't know how he got here, but.....that doesn't matter. He can take those things. Trust me, I've seen them in action."
He looked over at the other guy there with her,"Think you can fight any?"

Seems that those 2 are apart of this as well. As the minute bombs came forward and the older man knocking them away he saw the other heartless coming. "We can't win this" the older man muttered. He might have been right, there wasn't much shadow in this incredibly bright lit room and would be at a disadvantage. It was then that he heard the roar, nothing there until out of nowhere what looked to be some sort of dragon destroying the heartless left and right. A bit shocked at this performance and almost didn't hear the man's question.
"Yeah, and make sure to tell her that after this my debt is paid." The man probably wouldn't understand what he meant but hopefully the girl would. "Well vigilante it would seem that it's you, me, and a giant dragon against quite a lot of heartless." After saying that he shot out the dark tendrils again but from both hands 3 piercing bolt towers while the others grabbed several minute bombs that were low in detonation count and threw them into the area of shadows and knights to get rid of them. Oh yes, Lyon was going to enjoy himself.

Even with the Reflect, the force of the bomb made her light headed as she leaned against the wall. Pushing herself off and readying to start concentrating on targets, the minute bombs before them, Lyon and Erika, were knocked away before self-destructing. Blinking to sharpen her hazy vision, she saw Max. Hearing his statement, she stared at him in disbelief with the will to not fall so easily, but the site before her was convincing enough as more heartless arrived. In battle, there were no such things as breaks.
Her eyes widdened hearing a roar as she can feel the force push against her frame. If that was a heartless, it made survival appear even slimmer by the moments and seconds. The roar was making Erika uneasy as she started to load her pistols with bullets, while doubting that the small bullets can affect something that made such big noise; it needed to come from a large body after all. A shimmer made her eyes closed, and once they re-opened there was a dragon....in the hallway.
"Oh my...," the gunslinger was in a daze watching it like a deer staring at headlights. Her muscles were too stiff to permit her to move or even twitch. Even her fingers wouldn't hook the triggers.
Hearing a familiar voice, she literally snapped out of it with wide eyes, while nodding, "Y-yeah I'm fine."
Come on. Let's get away from these things. That's a white dragon.....he looks like he's from my homeworld. I don't know how he got here, but.....that doesn't matter. He can take those things. Trust me, I've seen them in action." He spoke before looking at other guy there with her,"Think you can fight any?"
Her brows furrowed, "W-we're...where would we go?" She didn't like the idea of departing. At the corner at the end of the hall, there was a broomstick leaning over...peaking.
Jawn chuckled a bit with his staff away and blades back out. He faced some of the heartless and slashed at them eliminating them. He continued doing some movements easily killing some soldiers and shadows, and knocking a few more minute bombs away.
After jumping at a bolt tower and stabbing it right in the face as it was about to slam down he jumped over to another and got that while coming back down swinging at a circle of shadows. "I guess so, but the only question is.."
He was saying as he was stabbing through the heartless and than stabbed two bolt towers at once while kicking a minute bomb away from behind, "Can the dragon keep up" he said while finally using a fire spell that he had somehow managed to learned and got the fire surounding him destroying a group of soldiers.
Ciraph scoffed at the one with the two swords. The young one obviously had never seen a dragon fight.
"You want to know if I can keep up?" he asked, amusement in his voice,"I think a better question would be, can you keep up?"
As he finished speaking, Ciraph reared back up, pointing his open palmed front hand and aiming it at a small concentration of shadow and soldier heartless, and casting thundara on them, the powerful thunder magic ripping into them, turning them to black mist.
"Learn your place, young one," the dragon said,"Now, you two should leave. I will take care of these beasts myself. Go help the other two. They will need you to help them fight through the other Heartless."
And with that, Ciraph let out another blood-curdling roar and started spewing fire at more heartless as more shadows and soldiers came up behind him.....
********** "Over there," Max said, putting and arm around Erika to help support her on her feet. She looked like she was really shaken,"Where that broom is. The only problem we'll have is the shadows between us......."
He turned to where the other two were still fighting the other heartless.
"DAMMIT, YOU TWO, GET OVER HERE! WE CAN'T GET OUT OF HERE WITHOUT YOUR HELP!!" he screamed over at them at the top of his lungs. He turned back, seeing the shadows getting closer. He could use his spear well enough with just one hand. He'd have to leave Erika to stand on her own for a few moments to clear them.
"Since the other two aren't going to be of any help...," he said to her,"I'm going to have to fight these shadows myself. Think you can keep standing against the wall while I get rid of them?"

"Seems the dragon can take care of himself. C'mon the other two need some help." That being said Lyon rushed to where the girl and other guy seeing shadow heartless in front of them with the man handling a war pike. He unsheathed his osafune and got next to them before slashing the air sending several waves of darkness at the shadow heartless turning several of them into mist.
"Hope you're good with that pike of yours" said Lyon as he got into a defensive stance.

He said there were shadows..
Looking at their directional exit, there indeed were heartless. Erika grumbled lowly; she was seriously growing tired of seeing the inky black creatures. Their existence had caused trouble, death, carnage, and destruction. As Max yelled, Erika loaded her pistols completely, while trying to gain some control over herself and her trembling fingers.
Think you can keep standing against the wall while I get rid of them?
A brow arched and a click of her tongue followed by snort,Erika had to push herself off the wall to make the shot work correctly. Swinging her arm, she pulled the trigger curving the beam of light, "I'm not that useless."
Holy was enough to take out hinder and take out some of the heartless in a path of a crescent moon. It would generally wipe out the heartless, but Erika's exhaustion didn't bring it to its upmost ability. Using such attack straight from her heart caused the guage on Elisa to be drained completely as it main outlet was Erika.
Jawn simply decided to go along without saying anything, still holding his blade he sprinted over to them getting there with peculiar speed. Once he got there he swung his blades both at once and eliminated a groupd of shadows. Grouping up with the bunch he realized one was severely hurt and a shadow was jumping up at her from behind.
He threw one of his shuriken right at it's head to stop it and it turned to dust behind her. Than three of the shadows came up at him in a tackling motion. He grabbed one by it's tiny leg and threw it at another one, than just sent a stab at the third one as it was coming down, turning all three to a strange black smoke.
"How longer do you think they'll keep coming" he said while eliminating them in groups
"I'm not that useless," Max heard Erika say, a grin crossing his face as she sent a wave of light into the heartless.
"Glad to hear it," he said, gripping his warpike tight with both hands as the other guy who had been with her earlier came up and asked if he was good with his pike.
"I'm only good enough to survive a 3 year war against the Heartless on my world," he said, sarcasm dripping from his voice, "I don't know how good that is, but....It should do here. Now, lets start pushing forward. You," Max said, pointing to Jawn, "you have a lot of throwing weapons, right? Stay behind me and this guy here and keep hitting them from farther off, and take out any that pop up behind us. Erika, you keep picking them off from behind us and help him."
Max turned, facing the shadows which were still a little ways off now. A few were popping up from behind them, but they were manageable. What they needed to do was get out of there safely. The dragon would handle the flood of heartless behind them.
"Let's go," Max said, motioning to Lyon to come with him,"We're in front. Keep them from getting past us, that's the big thing. Let the other two actually take out the larger number of them."
Max held his spear in a defensive stance as he started moving forward, cutting down the shadows as they started leaping at him, taking them out one by one. There was about three dozen of them throughout the whole, long hallway between them and where the broom was.

"I'm only good enough to survive a 3 year war against the Heartless on my world" said the man. Good, hopefully you won't slow me down too much. By the way the name's Lyon." Lyon said smiling showing he didn't mean anything by it.
Hearing the plan Lyon nodded his head and sliced any heartless that got near him and sending waves of darkness from his sword when they stopped for a second. He didn't know how long he'd be able to keep up with the waves though, this place reeked of light and that wasn't good considering he derived his energy from the darkness around him. And with no shadow's he'd be stuck with only his dark moves.

Nodding Erika was loaded and ready to go. She would make sure that no heartless will close in from behind, or any would get behind Max or the other. The last thing they needed was the front line to be attacked in the back. Max started moving and the journey to safety has begun. He swung at the shadows that attacked from above, while shadows moved like shadows along the ground.
She truly distated shadows. Her face wrinkled waiting for the little black abomination to wiggle from the floor. As one lept from the ground to attack the front, a bullet rang and combusted it into black mist with a shine of light. With her concentration on the deceased heartless, another one lept to her right, which was ended by a pull of Eleanor. Having dual pistols were quite useless and resourceful.
As they move forward, more shadows started to crawl on the floor like insects. Chaning plans, Erika released Battle Cries as light shaped bullets curled and whisps towards the shadows crawling on the ground as the light was attracted to the darkness and corruptness of their heart.
Jawn noticed how she was using those guns and remembered the time she used one on him. She had managed perfect aim, but now it's even better than it was then. She had flawlessly exterminated heartless. Jawn felt a little inferior with his shuriken so he kicked into action.
He could see the two going in the distance and five shadows were creeping up on them. He threw one shuriken inbetween all of them. As the all circled in they were all hit, Jawn had eliminated five shadows from far away with three hits. He was proud of that fact. Now they were clear for the time being but Jawn sensed some sneaking up behind him so he swung around circular with his blade pointing in the air getting them all.
Jawn knew that the shadow's attacking method was inferior so this may be a little too easy. But the one problem was watching their back from that distance and not hitting them. He managed it for a little while longer while protecting himself as well. While he was fighting he directed a statement to Erika.
"Never thought that kid would be on our side did ya?"
He said trying to lighten the mood as they were eliminating heartless
Max rolled his eyes as Lyon talked about him not holding him back. He seemed to have a super-ego the size of the castle.
Who does this guy think he is? Some kind of God or something? he thought to himself as he kept pushing through the shadows as Erika and the other guy kept him and Lyon covered from the back, helping take out the shadows from the front as well.
Max took a momentary pause to assess their situation. They had made it about halfway through the shadows blocking their path. The small black creatures were easy to take out, but they always attacked in swarms, which more than made up for their weakness individually. In such large numbers, they could overpower almost any enemy, especially if they were caught unawares.
They kept pushing forward, Max taking out one shadow at a time as they kept pushing forward, now about three-quarters of the way through the shadows. They were almost there. Just a little further, and.....
Max felt a pit settle in his stomach as a pair of Big Body's appeared just on the other side of the dwindling number of shadows. They just stood there for a few moments before slapping their bellies and running forward toward the small group.
They were so close, nobody would have time to get out of the way.
Thinking as fast as he could, Max took his spear and braces the butt of the shaft against the floor, the spearhead pointing up, and gathered the water again, forming it into a long piece and using it to trip the big body, the large heartless falling over forward right on top of Max's spear.
The Big Body's weight carried it over and forced the spear through its usually indestructibel frontside, forming it into black mist as it fell over Max, who just stood there staring up at it, a defiant determination on his face as it faded away.

Lyon sighed when he saw the big bodies come rushing at him. He quickly ducked to the ground and stuck his fingers to the ground waiting for it to jump. At the moment it jumped and started coming down shadow tendrils shot from the ground slowing it's fall but not stopping it.
"Shit!" he muttered before 3 of the tendrils disappeared and raised his left hand grabbing the big bodies head. "Dark Surge!" at that moment his arm seemed to recoil once and the big body disappeared into a black mist. He winced when he moved his fingers. They were slightly burnt with a few blisters here and there.
"Let's hope i don't have to do that again." Lyon muttered. He increased his grip on his sword while the sheath was strapped to his belt with the lace on it. He pointed his osafune back at the heartless. "Who's next?" After all he was an impatient man.
