Windy Day (Xaldin, Open)

[Deleted]

Twilight Town was unusually packed today. People were crowding the marektplace and browsing teh shops. The tram was stuffed to the limit with people. Sunset Hill and teh Terrace were also full with pedestrians. But one place remained untouched. There were few places that were deserted, one of them being teh Sandlot.

This is where Xaldin resided.

He stood on top of one of the buildings, his arms crossed and a sharp look on his face. If anybody were to see him, they would notice that he was searching for something. His eyes would sweep from left to right often, lingering on each corner of the area for a split second before moving. And anybody (and the few) that knew him would know what he was searching for.

Competition.

Xaldin had grown bored of pacing the castle, and had bicked this area as his target. He smiled, feeling slightly sorry for the first human to enter that area.

Or at least felt as much as a Nobody could.

And he knew they would come, those pesky humans who couldn't keep their noses in their own buisness. But, just to be safe, he started to manipulate the breeze that blew through Twilight Town, causing it to become more manevolent--and stronger. What had started as a breeze had increased to a powerful gust that obviously originated from the Sandlot. He smiled again. Let those cretins come and face what was obviously more superior. Let them coem and face judgement.

Let them come to their dooms.

Avalon was strolling around Twilight Town he thought that it was unusually busy he had been here long enough to notice that this town was rather lazy, but today was different there were many people browsing shops or rushing to get to work though Avalon wondered what kind of jobs people could do in a small world like this?, though it wasn't that bad he had been staying at a local hotel even though he had a shady appearance, he was still human.

He decided to look around the town square maybe he might find someone who could teach him how to conquer the darkness inside him, he sighed deeply he remembered the night he transformed into the Dark Wolf that resided inside him due to the effects of the curse that the Dark Edge katana put on him, when he retrieved it. He will find a way to harness the power instead of fear it.

As he looked around the town square he felt a strong breeze in the air, it felt more than a simple breeze from the wind but rather a person as though it was encouraging them to follow the breeze. He saw where the breeze came from he was intrigued and ran lightly towards the desserted place known as the Sandlot.

When he arrived he saw nothing but a man in a black coat with long jet black hair which was in dreadlocks, and mysterious dark eyes. Hmm...I can feel a large amount of darkness coming from this man, maybe he has some information about how to conquer it. Avalon thought a small smile appearing on his pale face and his crimson red eyes gleamed slightly.

He approached the man he didn't bring out his katana which he normally held backhand, he kept it shiethed on his waist and asked "My name is Avalon, I can feel a strong surge of darkness coming from you. Tell me, what do you know about conquering the darkness?." He spoke in a serious tone of voice meaning that he was determined to seek his answers, and if he had to fight to get them, then so be it.

Xaldin frowned at the newcomer, glaring him down with his dark eyes. He could tell that the man was powerful, but was puzzled at why he had asked him about dominating the darkness. Bending his legs, he pushed off of the roof, floating to the ground and gently landing. "Why would you ever want to rid yourself of darkness?" he taunted the man, his lances appearing around him. "Darkness is the greatest form of power there is. So denying it...is proving that youre weak!" With that, he plucked three of his lances out of the air and jumped up, summoning 4 Dragoon Nobodies. "If yu really think you can defeat darkness" said the Whirlwind Lancer, "then beat them then me."

But, to himself, he smiled. This was going to be fun.

Avalon didn't expect the man to fight so quickly, well he wasn't fighting him specificaly instead he was facing a new enemy. They weren't heartless because they were tall, lanky and had thin sharp wings they looked somewhat like a dragon and they carried a lance as a weapon. I haven't seen these before, but they look more of a challenge than minor heartless, this could be interesting, bring em on. Avalon thought as he drew the Dark Edge katana and held it backhand ready to fight.

Avalon smirked and said in a cocky tone "Alright!, let's see what you weaklings can do!." With that he dashed towards the creature in front and was about to attack it with a horizontal slash, afterwards he followed up with two more slashes on the final slash he span into it to it in order to finish the combo, after that he flipped over them and fired several dark aura spheres at them as he was in the air.

When he landed he looked at the man straight in the eyes he could feel the dark fires within him spark, he turned around ready for the mysterious creatures to make their next move.

As the boy swung, the attacked Dragoon was able to block all but one of the swings with its spear. It did take a pretty heavy hit, but kept on fighting, ever resilient. Then the man fired off dark spheres of a sort, hitting one of his Dragoons and eliminating it. He scowled at the man, who was obviously stronger than he had first showed. The other Dragoons, at a mental command from Xaldin, began using Jump at the man, warping above him and spiraling their spears down. As for Xaldin, he began making mini cyclones in various places in the sandlot that would expand when somebody touched them and send the victim in the air.

He then waited again to see what this man could do.

[shadow117]

He was able to defeat one of them they were stronger than he thought, he didn't let down his guard and twirled his katana and returned to holding it backhand. He expected the creatures to charge at him but this time, one of them tried something different by teleporting somehow above and began to spin it's lance like a drill and attack him.

Avalon had an idea he created a dark portal on the ground and sunk through it narrowly avoiding the spinning lance, and appeared of the creature. He then put as much strength into his katana and as he was falling he delivered a powerful slash through the creature, and landed lightly on the ground. There were only two remaining, he was just getting warmed up.

"Ha!, is that the best you can do-." He couldn't finish his sentance because Suddenly he felt a great anger and rage his eyes widened for a moment he couldn't explain why he felt this much anger and hate. Before he knew it he was under the control of the darkness within his own heart, an aura of darkness appeared around his body he lifted his katana and began to send a volley of powerful dark spheres towards the remaing creatures.

Xaldin narrowed his eyes at this man, surprised. How was he able to wield that much dark energy and not be a Heartless or Nobody. He called off his Dragoons and descended, several of the orbs glancing off his air shield. His feet touched the ground as he called off his lances, transmutating into wind as they disappated. He crossed his arms and said to the man, "Enough!" The man was then held by air, which Xaldin had manipulated to hold him as strong as concrete. He approached the man and said, "How is it that you can wield this power?"

[shadow117]

Despite that he didn't know how he did it the volley of dark spheres managed to take out several of the dragon-like creatures, though what he didn't know was that the rest of them were called away thanks to the cloaked man, it took several moments for Avalon to calm down when the attack finally stopped he lowered his weapon and turned to face the man, with a serious look on his face.

"Now you see?...He said deeply"I've had this Darkness in my heart for as long as I can remember, though the power of this blade The Dark Edge it merely awakens my darkness.He paused for a moment remembering the time when he found the Shrine where the blade was kept, and the blade unlocked his true form. "I need to learn how to control the darkness without the use of this powerful blade." He raised his fist during his speech, though he wasn't exactly sure how he would control the darkness it seemed almost impossible.

He had hoped that this man would be able to give him some answers, but all that he'd done so far was fight, and he didn't have time for meaningless battles, he addressed the man "I thought that you'd have the answers but it seems that i'm wasting my time." Avalon turned to make his leave, though he still had the Dark Edge out in-case the man decided to attack him.
