"I'm the Boss!" -- Fabled Countryside [Open/Complete]

[noster_nostri]

Years ago, Adam had told Sora about his world. He told Sora about the quaint little village, the wolf-infested woods, and the castle where his staff (they were really more like a family) took care of him. He had told Sora how despite it's moments of tribulation and the predators in the woods, the world was still peaceful and happy

After discovering the presence of the rose, the goals and perceptions of Beast began to alter. Suddenly, the thoughts of his friends and family were pushed aside and the only things left were to protect his territory and this peculiar object. The Darkness had begun to penetrate deeper inside of the creature ever since his human nature had fallen aside in favor of the animal's instincts. Afterall, what human could plunge into these black depths and survive? Logic was falling away... even what his exact purpose was... even over that damned glowing object he feigned after so severely. Baser instinct was in charge - no other reasons were necessary.

Adam somehow woke up alone and cold in an unfamiliar place. Everywhere he looked, he only saw black. Up, down, to the sides. That was it. It seemed his body was the only thing in existence here, and the only thing he could actually see. Holding his now human hands out in front of him, Adam was only mildly astonished that they weren't clawed and furred. Looking down, his eyes were met with pink

The shadows moved, swarming towards him. Despite the danger of him being alone, Sora couldn't help but mutter "Finally" as he raised the Keyblade. It was getting kind of freaky to be this far in the world without a single attack.

He slashed through them, spinning out his arm. The shadows evaporated into smoke and small lights as the Hearts escaped. They were easily destroyed. He stood up straight and waited to see if more would attack.

He didn't except there would be a Beast to face too.

The large beast stood at the top of the grand staircase that graced the entrance to the castle and glared down upon this new intruder. He scented the air to better get a taste for this stranger. The smell brought up no familiarity for the beast, and he crouched low, a lip curling away to bare his teeth. He had obviously been roughed up some by the black beings. Deep gashes ran down his arms and chest. Blood stained fur peeked out from under the torn and tattered cloak.

After what seemed like hours, something caught the corner of Adam's eye. Turning, he spotted a pinpoint of light, some few miles or more away. Lazily, he rose to his feet and began to walk towards this new occurence. None of his footsteps appeared to bring him closer to this light. Since he had nothing else to do, he continued to traipse on. Within moments an all too familiar smell filled his nose. It was difficult to place, but it reminded him of happy times. Adam smiled.Small clutches of Heartless - the regulars and wolves alike - rushed past the beast towards the

Sora grinned as more of the Heartless came forward. "Ha!" he said as he slashed through the first one that came near. They were no match for the Keyblade and therefore no match for him, at least that's what he knew. His movements were fluid, as he danced the dance he had learned so long ago. He made small joyful sounds as he defeated one after the other.

The Keyblade twisted and twirled in his hands. It started to slow as he concentrated. "Sorry, guys." he said as he defeated two more Heartless. "But I have to get back soon or else I'm going to have more chores."

And with that he pulled the Keyblade towards him and a dazzling light shot through his body. It pushed the Heartless away and left the room empty of the any more of them. The wave of the light settled over the room, leaving an eerie glow for a moment until it disappeared into a wispy mist.
