Chapter 40: The SOLDIER and The One-Winged Angel

The sun was beginning to set on another day in Jump City and the Titans for once could say that they had a pretty good day. There wasn't that much crime fighting going on today, so the team decided to spend their time in the town: they played many games at the arcade, shopped for new stuff, and a bunch of other activities. Cyborg and Beast Boy managed to beat the high scores set at the arcade, Starfire managed buy a bunch of new clothes and hair products while Robin had to carry all her bags, and Sora, Rose, and Raven found new items: Sora found new gloves to reinforce his hands and wrists so the keyblade won't fall out of his grasp so easily, Rose found more throwing knives that she could use to combine two knives to make into spinning daggers and also modify them to make them hurt and stagger more, and Raven found more spell books to practice with along with other books that she was interested in. All in all, today was a pretty good day.

"Man, can't believe time flies so fast," Beast Boy said while the team walked out of the closing mall. The sun began to set, bathing the city in a warm glow of light.

"Ah, don't worry BB. At least we set a score that's never gonna be topped," Cyborg said, clamping a comforting hand on the changeling's shoulder, making him laugh in response.

"And at least…you guys don't have…to carry any bags," Robin said, struggling with 15 bags full of stuff Starfire bought, while Starfire walked next to him with one bag.

"Oh thank you for holding all the bags, Robin! I do truly appreciate it," Starfire said.

"Any…time…Star," Robin said, struggling. Starfire walked ahead of the group while humming to herself and Robin tried to follow but eventually fell over from the weight and was buried under the bags and clothes.

"Uh, you need a hand, Robin?" Cyborg offered while he and Beast Boy looked on.

"Please," Robin groaned from the pile. Cyborg and Beast Boy began to dig him out while Sora walked with Rose and Raven.

"So, what do you guys think of explosive throwing knives?" Rose asked, observing her new blades.

"They could definitely come in handy in some situations, so I think they'll work," Sora said, looking at his new gloves which covered his palms and wrists.

"Yeah but also try to see if you can remote detonate them too. Just in case," Raven offered, reading her new spell book.

"Good point, I'll have to figure out all the configuration to that," Rose said. The team continued their way to the T-Car when suddenly a single black feather landed in front of them. Most of the team didn't notice until Sora looked down and saw it. He picked it up and turned pale at the sight while the others noticed it too.

"A black feather, where did it come from?" Rose asked.

"No idea, must've been a big bird to drop that," Cyborg said.

"No, I don't know any bird with feathers like that," Beast Boy said.

"I do but it's not a bird, Beast Boy," Sora said, scared.

"Then what is it?" Raven asked when another black feather landed next to her. The team looked around to see more feathers falling around them and they looked up to see a single figure floating in the air above them with a giant wing sprouting from his back. He was wearing a black coat, he had long, flowing, white hair and piercing, green, cat-like eyes.

"Sora…is that…?" Rose asked.

"Yeah, that's him. That's Sephiroth," Sora said, terrified.

"Good to see you again, boy," Sephiroth said, his voice putting the team on alert mode instantly. Suddenly, he vanished out of sight, making the team look around worriedly. Sora looked around with his keyblade at the ready when suddenly Sephiroth came rushing at him and tackled him away from the team.

"Huh?! Sora!" Raven said flying after the two.

"Titans go!" Robin yelled, shooting a grappling hook at a nearby roof while the others took off after Raven. Meanwhile, Sephiroth rammed Sora through multiple buildings before crashing into a rooftop. Sora found himself in a chokehold while Sephiroth raised Sora into the air.

"You will give me the keyblade, boy. Give it to me and this will end," Sephiroth said.

"No! There's no…way I'll give it to you!" Sora got out from the iron grip on his throat.

"Very well," Sephiroth said, pulling his sword out of his hilt and aimed it at Sora's chest. Sora quickly fired a Blizzaga spell in Sephiroth's face, stunning him long enough for Sora to free himself from the Fallen Angel's grip. Sephiroth brushed off the spell and raised his sword at Sora. "Do not prolong this, keyblader. Or else you and your friends will suffer," Sephiroth said.

"And for the last time, no!" Sora said, getting into his battle stance.

"Then I shall take it from you!" Sephiroth said, firing a powerful ball of Firaga, creating a huge explosion and knocking Sora to the ground. He groaned in pain when he suddenly saw Sephiroth rush at him in a blurring dash, forcing him to quickly get up and block the incoming attack but the strike from the long sword managed to knock Sora off-balance.

'Woah, he seems faster than before! And one strike managed to throw me off to. What is going on?' Sora thought to himself as he continued to block and dodge as many strikes as he could. He eventually found an opening and uppercutted Sephiroth in the chin, stopping his assault and allowing Sora to unleash a combo of his own, knocking the swordsman away. Sora threw his keyblade in a Strike Raid move but Sephiroth easily deflected it away, making it stab into the roof. Sora quickly called it back to his hand and blocked another attack but was quickly caught off guard by a quick Fira spell into his chest, knocking him to the ground. Sephiroth readied another attack when a Starbolt hit him in the shoulder, barely fazing him and he turned to see the other Titans standing behind him.

"Mess with him and you mess with us," Robin said, narrowing his eyes. He quickly threw some explosive discs but the swordsman easily cut them into pieces before they detonated. Cyborg and Starfire unleashed their projectiles at Sephiroth but he easily deflected some of them while the others didn't even faze him. Lightning zapped from his hands while a huge Thunder bolt struck the area where Cyborg and Starfire were, shocking them and taking them out of the battle. Beast Boy turned into a gorilla and tried to punch the swordsman but Sephiroth easily caught the fist with his own hand before striking him away with his sword, making Beast Boy crash into a nearby building.

"Man, that sword packs a wallop," Beast Boy groaned to himself. Meanwhile, Robin and Rose charged at Sephiroth with bo-staff and swords at the ready and attacked multiple times but Sephiroth managed to block the attacks, destroyed their weapons with simple sword swipes and blasted them away with two shadow flares while trapping them to the ground with a gravity spell. The swordsman then turned to a recovering Sora when a black, transparent bird appeared before him as it turned into Raven.

"You won't hurt him anymore," Raven said.

"Ha-ha, and what will you do?" Sephiroth said.

"This," Raven said, manipulating nearby cars and buses and throwing them at the swordsman, who easily cut through some of them and charged towards her. She quickly stopped him by shooting a raven's claw at him, which grabbed him and rammed him into a nearby building. Raven quickly took off after him and fired multiple blasts of magic at the swordsman until he was eventually shot clean through the building and crashed into the street. She landed near where he crashed to see the state he was in but with all the smoke around she couldn't see him. Suddenly, a gust of wind pushed all the smoke away while pushing Raven back a little and she looked to see Sephiroth completely unscathed while covered in a little smoke, shocking her.

"You are indeed strong," Sephiroth said, suddenly rushing towards her in a blurring dash. Thinking fast, she quickly pulled some rocks from the street and launched them towards him but the winged swordsman easily cut through the rocks and striked Raven in a single swipe, knocking her down. "But not enough to defeat me," Sephiroth said, aiming his sword to strike at her chest and dashed towards her again when Sora landed in front of her and created a Reflect spell in front of them. Sephiroth couldn't stop himself and hit the shield, defending the two heroes and knocking the swordsman away with the knock back. Sora put the shield away while he used cure to heal himself and Raven.

"Leave them out of this!" Sora yelled.

"That's up to them," Sephiroth said, suddenly rushing towards Sora and striking very quickly that the sword looked like a blur. Sora somehow managed to block most of the attacks but some strikes managed to hit his arms and legs, leaving him with some cuts until Sephiroth surrounded Sora with Shadow Flares and made them explode around him, knocking Sora to the ground. He tried to get back up but the swordsman denied him that with a kick to the chest, making Sora slide across the ground. Raven grabbed another car with her powers and threw it at the swordsman but he easily cut through it and launched a blizzard spell at her, trapping her in a block of ice. Sephiroth walked up to Sora and placed the blade's tip under Sora's chin, making him look up to the swordsman. "You are indeed a skilled keyblade wielder but your story ends here," Sephiroth said aiming his blade at Sora's heart.

"No! Sora!" Raven yelled. Sora closed his eyes and readied himself for the pain of not only the blade but also letting everyone that he has come to know and love down.

"I'm sorry everyone," Sora quietly said to himself and then-

*SWOOSH*

*CLANG*

"Well, you definitely caught up fast," Sephiroth said to someone.

"You'd really think I let you go so easily," a familiar voice said, making Sora's eyes widened. He looked up to see a man standing in front of him. He was wearing black clothes, had blonde spikey hair, and was wielding a huge sword wrapped up in bandages that was currently in a duel lock with Sephiroth's sword.

"C-Cloud?!" Sora groaned out. Said person turned around to see Sora on the ground and was shocked himself.

"Kid?!" Cloud asked in return.

"What are you doing here?!" They both asked each other. Sephiroth pushed down on the Cloud's sword, making him turn his attention back to the duel.

"What a touching reunion," Sephiroth remarked. Cloud gritted his teeth and managed to push Sephiroth back before striking at him while the winged swordsman managed to block some of the attacks. The other Titans regrouped while Raven broke free of the ice and helped Sora recover.

"Whoa, who is that guy?" Rose asked.

"That's Cloud. He's a friend of mine," Sora explained as everyone watched Cloud fight Sephiroth in amazement. The two were bouncing off the buildings, running up and down the streets and fighting at speeds that were hard to keep up with.

"Wow, for a scrawny guy, he can really move that sword," Cyborg said amazed.

"Oh please it can't be that heavy if he can wield it," Beast Boy said.

"He is quite dashing," Starfire said, awestruck while Robin's eyes widened in shock.

"He's faring a lot better than we are against Sephiroth," Raven noticed.

"It's not the first time Cloud's fought him. In fact he's been hunting him for a while. I should go help him," Sora said but winced as he held his side in pain.

"Easy Sora. You gotta rest first," Robin said. Meanwhile, the two swordsman continued to go at each other until they landed back on the streets in front of the Titans, panting and covered in cuts.

"Well, this has been interesting, Cloud. But it would seem that I require more power. I hope you understand," Sephiroth said, floating into the air.

"No!" Cloud said, leaping into the air and striking at the swordsman but it was too late as Sephiroth teleported away, leaving some black feathers behind. Cloud landed on the ground while cursing to himself.

"Cloud?" Sora asked, catching the blonde's attention. "Where did he go?" He asked.

"He's gonna try and gain more power. I have to track him down again," Cloud said, walking away to a nearby motorcycle that was hidden behind a building.

"Cloud wait. He said he was after me to get the keyblade," Sora said, making Cloud stop.

"He's trying to throw you off his trail," Robin said.

"What?" Cloud said.

"He's not trying to run anymore. He's now only after Sora's keyblade and he won't stop until he gets it," Rose said.

"How do you know?" Cloud asked.

"Because he's been here for a few weeks and we've been trying to track him down for quite some time," Raven said. Cloud eyed Sora ad the Titans for a little before letting out a breath.

"Kid, you got some explaining to do," Cloud said, making Sora laugh nervously.

(Later, back at the Tower)

"So, after your encounter with Xehanort, you came here to get your strength back and you became a part of this team?" Cloud asked after Sora explained everything.

"Pretty much, yeah if you want to simplify it," Sora said, sitting on the couch with Stitch and the others.

"And you've been here for how long?" Cloud asked.

"Let's see we formed up like a year and a few months ago so a long time," Robin said.

"I see, well just be happy that this world has different time rules or else you would've missed a lot of stuff," Cloud said.

"Wait, what do you mean by time rules?" Rose asked.

"I've been world travelling for most of my life and I've come to realize that every world has their own set of time rules: they would be set in different times and time itself would move either faster, slower, or not at all. And it looks like this world moves a little faster than the worlds we're used to, Sora," Cloud said.

"Are you talking about the other planets, like my home, Tamaran?" Starfire asked curious.

"No, I'm talking about completely different worlds," Cloud said.

"Sora, what's he talking about?" Robin asked, making Sora laugh nervously again.

"Hehehe, well Me, Stitch, and Cloud aren't from this Earth or another planet in space…but a-a different place," Sora said.

"A different place? What do you mean?" Cyborg asked.

"He means a completely different dimension. Your guys Earth is a separate world in a huge Realm called the Realm of Light. The world is just one of several other worlds in the Realm of Light," Cloud explained. Everyone but Raven was shocked at the news since she was the only one who has seen Sora's mind and knew about the other worlds but decided to keep it secret.

"But…we've traveled to space before and been to other worlds, like Starfire's. How come we haven't seen these other worlds before?" Beast Boy asked.

"Because her home planet and whatever other realms and planets you guys have been to all exists within this world. Every world has their own set of rules and realms, all unique in their own way, yet similar in others," Cloud said, surprising everyone.

"Sora, are these the other worlds that you've been talking about? And not just other planets?" Rose asked.

"Yeah, this Earth is just one of many that I've been to. Heck, my home Destiny Islands is also an Earth too. But when I got the keyblade, I was taken to a new world called Traverse Town where I met my friends, Donald and Goofy," Sora said.

"Wait, Donald and Goofy?! As in the Donald Duck and Goofy?! From the Disney movies?!" Beast Boy asked. Sora looked confused at the mention of the movies.

"Well, I did see Maleficent and Pete when we took on Blood a second time, so no surprise there," Cyborg said.

"Disney…movies? I didn't know they made movies. I should've asked Mickey for some free tickets," Sora said, rubbing his head. The rest of his team was beyond shocked though at his simple-mindedness.

"YOU KNOW MICKEY?!" Beast Boy yelled.

"HOW HAVE YOU NOT SEEN THE MOVIES?!" Robin yelled.

"WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN LIVING FOR THE PAST 100 YEARS?!" Cyborg asked loudly. Sora laughed nervously at all the questions directed towards him.

"To answer all your questions: I've been living on Destiny Islands, my home; no, I haven't seen any of the Disney movies and wow that is weird to say; and yes I know Mickey, he's the king of Disney Castle. Donald is his magician and Goofy is captain of the royal knights," Sora explained.

"MICKEY'S A KING?!" Everyone yelled.

"Yes, Mickey's a king," Cloud said, stopping all the yelling. "Yes, there are other worlds out there besides this one and animated movies are real now can we please focus on another pressing matter, involving a winged swordsman before more people are hurt?" Cloud said. Sora got up from the couch and walked up to the computer.

"He's right. We have to stop Sephiroth. Too many have suffered from him and we need to track him down," Sora said, typing away. A map of the city was brought up on the computer as cameras were accessed.

"But how can we track him down? The Sephiroth has proven himself to be very elusive," Starfire asked.

"Well, is it possible to track him down? I mean, Cloud's managed to trace him here," Rose said.

"Which, I gotta ask, did you just follow his feathers? He leaves a lot of them behind," Beast Boy said, dusting said feathers off his shoulder. Cloud stared him down, making the changeling laugh nervously.

"I was able to track him down because he's a part of me. Wherever he goes, I follow and the same goes for him," Cloud said.

"What do you mean he's a part of you?" Raven asked. Cloud sighed to himself before turning to face the team.

"Before I met Sora, I was a part of this group called SOLDIER, an elite military force under the command of the Shinra Power Company," Cloud explained.

"Hold up, you're saying a Power Company has their own private military force. That's insane!" Cyborg said.

"Insane but true. Shira had great influence in my world and practically ran everything. Anyway, Shinra decided to imbue the members of SOLDIER with powers in order to prepare them for special missions. What I didn't know was that the power…was the power of darkness and while it made us stronger, it also brought out the worst in us. Both figurately and literally," Cloud explained. Everyone was shocked and wide eyed at Cloud's story.

"Woah, talk about intense," Beast Boy said.

"So, Sephiroth is the personification of your darkness?" Robin asked.

"Yes and No. Sephiroth was a legend among the SOLDIERS but he was the most consumed by darkness and eventually he just disappeared. Now he haunts the force like a boogeyman," Cloud said.

"Well, let's put an end to this ghost story. We know he's not gonna leave the city now and he said that he would try to get stronger," Rose said.

"So what, we just search the whole city for any signs of long samurai swords and black feathers?" Beast Boy asked.

"Can you think of a better plan?" Sora asked.

"Uhh, we could wait him out," Beast Boy said.

"We don't have time for that. Any minute wasted is more time for him to get stronger, we have to track him down," Cloud said.

"We should split into teams in order to search the city faster," Starfire said.

"Sounds good, Star. We should make it teams of two. BB and I are up," Cyborg said, picking Beast Boy up from the couch.

"Rose and I work well together," Raven said, walking next to Rose.

"Robin and I will form up," Starfire said, hugging Robin's arm.

"Sounds like you it's you and me, Cloud," Sora said, smiling.

"Probably the best choice. You and I stand the best chance against Sephiroth after all," Cloud replied.

"All right team, let's go," Robin said.

"Remember, if you do find him, call us. You guys were lucky to last that long against him and I doubt he would let you all go again a second time," Cloud said. Everyone nodded in agreement and walked out of the Tower.

"So, how are we getting to the city?" Sora asked Cloud. The swordsman simply answered with a smirk.

(Later,)

"A little warning next time, Cloud!" Sora yelled from the back of Cloud's motorcycle as the swordsman drove very quickly back into Jump City. Sora held on tightly to the back handle while they got closer.

(Meanwhile, in the City)

Sephiroth slowly walked into an old warehouse as he lazily dragged his sword behind him. He took a couple more steps before darkness covered his form, turning him into a robed, hooded Heartless that stalked across the ground before falling to the ground. A pair of boots walked up to the fallen denizen as wisps of darkness were sucked into the person standing over it.

"Very well done. You played your part well," Sephiroth said, looking down at the clone. He smiled wickedly as he felt more power coming to him. "Don't worry. Your existence shall be sung in my new world when Mother and I are done. But first, I must get my hands on that boy's keyblade. You all will keep him, Cloud and their little team busy," Sephiroth said to four other Heartless clones as they responded with growls and hisses. "And when the time is right, I will take that blade and the world will be ours…Mother," Sephiroth said to a giant hooded Heartless with long hair hanging over the face while two yellow eyes peer out. A quiet roar was its only response to the One-Winged Angel.

(Later, on a rooftop in the City)

The sound of Cloud's motorcycle roared across the streets as the two spikey-haired heroes drove all over the City looking for any signs of Sephiroth.

"Man, I hate how hard it is to find this guy," Sora said.

"Welcome to my world," Cloud said. Sora groaned and pulled out his communicator.

"Any luck guys?" Sora asked. Robin and Starfire appeared on the screen.

"No luck in the Upper East Side," Robin said.

"Nothing in the UW either," Beast Boy said.

"Nada in the Lower East too," Raven said.

"Ugh, he's a guy with a wing and a long sword, why is he so hard to find?! Sora complained. The driver suddenly stopped the motorcycle and got off.

"C'mon, let's get a better view from the rooftops," Cloud said, making a leap up to the top. Sora quickly followed him to the top while Cloud inspected the city.

"Nice place. Seems pretty calm," Cloud said.

"Yeah, we have the occasional Heartless and criminals but all in all, it's a pretty nice city," Sora said. The remained in silence for a little until Sora spoke up. "Cloud, you mind if I ask you a question?" He asked.

"What's on your mind?" Cloud asked.

"How did you end up here? The last time I saw you was on Radiant Garden and you and Sephiroth just disappeared, so how did you get here?" Sora asked.

"Not really sure myself. While we were fighting, we were just going from one world to the next. I think we went to like 5-10 different worlds that it was hard to keep track. Though I do know one of those worlds was the Coliseum where we first met, but the rest we're just a blur," Cloud said.

"Oh yeah, the Coliseum! I wonder how Herc and others are doing. Hopefully, I'll see them again soon," Sora said. Cloud narrowed his eyes at the mention of Hercules, the hero he was hired to kill.

"Anyway, we eventually ended up in this world and we actually remained here for a good long while until Sephiroth just took off out of nowhere," Cloud said.

"He must've sensed my power here and came after me," Sora concluded.

"Yeah, so I tracked him all the way here, hoping to finish this," Cloud said.

"And we will finish it together," Sora said, with a determined look. Cloud laughed to himself while adjusting his hair.

"Always, the optimist, huh," Cloud asked.

"Well, can't imagine myself being anything else," Sora said, joining the laugh. The two continued to look around when something flew past them at high speeds and they looked to see Sephiroth flying over them before taking off again.

"Sephiroth!" Cloud yelled, jumping after him while Sora pulled out his communicator.

"Guys, we found him in the Lower West side and are in pursuit. Meet up with us as soon as you can!" Sora said, following Cloud.

"What? We're following him now too!" Beast Boy said.

"As are we," Starfire answered.

"Same over here," Rose said.

"What?! Cloud wait!" Sora said. The swordsman came to a halt as Sephiroth stopped in the air too. "The others just said they're chasing him right now too!" Sora said. Cloud turned back to face Sephiroth as he landed on the ground.

"He's been known to cast illusions. He must be trying to throw us off," Cloud said, pulling out his Buster Sword.

"Not exactly, Cloud," Sephiroth's voice said behind them and they turned to see another Sephiroth floating over them before landing on the roof. Two other Sephiroth's surrounded the two as the rest of the Titans caught up.

"Uh, giant sword dude, I think you forgot to mention that there was more than one," Beast Boy said as everyone grouped up.

"It's amazing what the darkness can offer to someone, Cloud. If only you could see it that way," The four Sephiroth's said at the same time.

"Ah, I hate when they talk like that!" Cyborg said, reading his cannon.

"Any ideas?" Raven asked.

"The clones shouldn't be as strong as the real deal. We should be able to take them but stay together. Don't let them separate us!" Cloud said. The Sephiroth's charged at the group but Sora and Raven quickly put up shields to defend the team as the rest went on the offensive. Cloud, Robin, and Starfire took on one Clone with Cloud dueling him and Robin and Starfire supporting him with explosive discs and starbolts; Beast Boy turned into a cheetah and rushed at a clone while Rose and Cyborg backed him up with sonic cannon blasts, and sword strikes, leaving Sora and Raven with two clones to deal with, who were currently unleashing bolts of shadow flares on the two shields.

"Raven, keep the shield up. I'll deal with the clones," Sora said.

"Ugh, you sure?" Raven said, struggling.

"Yeah, besides," Sora said, grabbing her hand as a bright light engulfed him. When the light faded, Sora's clothes were now blue with magic symbols on his shorts and his hood was up. "You always have my back," Sora said, smiling, as blue aura surrounded him.

"Is that a magic form?" Raven asked.

"Yeah, it's called my Wisdom Form," Sora said, blushing.

"Right, we'll see if it makes you smarter," Raven said smiling. Sora nodded and floated out of the shield and fired multiple shots of magic at the clones, catching their attention. He blasted multiple balls of energy at the clones but they teleported out of the way and next to him so they could slash at him but he quickly created two shields at his side to protect himself and knocked them back before shooting one clone out of the sky with a light beam. The other tried to stab him in the back from behind but Sora quickly turned and blocked the stab with his keyblade and dueled with the clone. Meanwhile, the clone Sora knocked down got up and saw Raven focusing on the shield to protect the others from the two other clones and quickly rushed at her.

"Raven!" Rose said, quickly blocking the sword and holding it back as best she could. Sora crashed next to them and quickly blasted the clone away while blocking another sword strike with his keyblade. Rose quickly ran over and kicked the clone away while Sora and Raven blasted the second through the roof. Meanwhile, Cloud and Robin managed to disarm the clone they were fighting and Cloud smashed the clone into the ground with his Braver move. The last clone knocked Beast Boy to the ground and was about to blast him with a Firaga spell but Starfire tackled into him, knocking him away. Cyborg and Starfire readied their projectiles and fired at the same time, destroying the clone. Everyone let out a breath and regrouped.

"So, he has clones now?! Anything else we need to know about what this guy can and can't do, sword guy?!" Beast Boy asked.

"I have a name and it's not the first time he's used clones or illusions against me," Cloud said holstering his sword.

"Than that makes him more dangerous, yes?" Starfire asked.

"Illusions I can understand but he must've gotten help from something for the clones," Raven said.

"Alright, lets head back to the Tower and recover. Se we'll be ready for what comes next," Robin said.

"Sounds good, I'll get the T-Car," Cyborg said. Sora looked around when he noticed something.

"Wait, where's Rose?!" Sora asked, catching everyone's attention.

"Last I saw her she was taking a clone all…a-" Raven said coming to a realization. Sora's eyes widened as he ran over to where Rose last was and saw only her broken swords and communicator on the ground. Tears began to run from his eyes and fell to his knees.

"ROSE!" Sora yelled, his voice echoing across the city.

(Meanwhile, in an abandoned warehouse)

The clone dropped an unconscious Rose to the ground while Sephiroth walked up to them.

"Your service is well appreciated," Sephiroth said, sucking the darkness out of the clone, destroying it. "And now to play with his heart," He said with a smirk.

(Later, back at the Tower)

"She was right there. Why didn't I help her. No, because he had to have clones. Oh, I can't wait till I get my hands on him and," Sora rambled to himself as he paced back and forth across the ground. Cloud and the other Titans watched him go back and forth in front of the window while tears streamed from his eyes and his body shook. When they found out Rose was missing, they searched the whole city but they couldn't find her anywhere, making Sora even more worried.

"Wow, he's really taking this hard," Beast Boy said.

"I cannot blame Sora. He cares for Rose and now she is in the hands of a madman," Starfire said worried.

"I know he cares but he needs to get his head in the game. Sephiroth is still out there," Cloud said.

"C'mon man she just got kidnapped. Can't we give him a break?" Cyborg said. Cloud sighed but nodded his head. Raven kept her eyes on Sora ever since they got back but she couldn't stand seeing him like this. She walked over to him and stood in front of him but Sora didn't seem to notice her.

"Sora, Sora," Raven said but still no response. She eventually grabbed him by the shoulders and turned him to face her, snapping him out of his rambles. "Sora! We will find her, ok. We will save her and we will stop Sephiroth but you need to focus," Raven said, placing her hands on Sora's face to calm him down. He started taking deep breathes and wiped his eyes clean.

"Yeah, yeah, you're right. T-thank you, Rae," Sora replied, smiling. Raven smiled back as the two found themselves lost in each other's eyes.

"Uh, guys," Robin said, breaking them out of their look-off. "We still have a one-winged swordsman to stop. So what's the plan now?" Robin asked. Sora quickly wiped the rest of the tears away and walked up to the team.

"Uh, well I'm not really sure what to do now. He's never taken someone I cared about before," Sora said, scratching his head.

"I'll go scout out Sephiroth and see if I can find him. You and your team should stay here in case Rose escapes and comes back," Cloud said, walking to the door.

"Cloud, wait!" Sora said, running up to him and placing a communicator in Cloud's hand. "Take this with you. In case you need help, okay?" Sora said. Cloud nodded and walked out, while the rest of the team stayed in place.

"So, what we just wait here?" Beast Boy asked.

"Yep, just in case Rose comes back. She's gotten out of similar situations before. And Cloud has a better chance of finding him alone," Sora said.

"Well, in that case, is anyone hungry?" Cyborg asked.

"I could eat," Beast Boy said.

"Well, I'll go train," Robin said.

"As will I. Ooh, Sora may I train with my keyblade to help you fight the Sephiroth?" Starfire asked, surprising Sora.

"Oh uhm sure. Star, just be careful alright. When he finds out you have one, he'll probably focus on you too," Sora said.

"Of course, Sora. I will be prepared," Starfire said, flying away. Raven and Stitch walk up to him while everyone else busied themselves.

"You doing ok?" Raven asked.

"Trying to be. I can't help but worry, ya know?" Sora said, trying to smile. Raven smiled to response and hugged him. Sora returned the hug, comforting each other. "Are you ok? A lot's happened today?" Sora asked.

"I'm okay. I kinda already knew about the whole different world and Disney thing but everything else is pretty crazy," Raven said, surprising Sora.

"What? How'd you know about the other worlds?" Sora asked.

"When I went into your mind to help with the hallucinations," Raven said.

"Oh," Sora responded, his face falling into a funny pout, making her laugh. "Well, thanks for keeping it a secret," He said.

"Well, it seemed like a pretty big deal, so I waited until you wanted to tell us," Raven said before a smile appeared on her face. "So,…you think it might be possible that we could go to Halloween Town sometime?" Raven asked.

"Uh, I don't see why not," Sora said. Raven smiled more and hugged him tighter.

"Thank you, Sora," Raven said.

"Anytime, Raven," Sora said.

(Later)

Everyone was spread out across the Tower doing different activities waiting for any news from Cloud but so far there was no news. Sora and Raven were now in the training room, practicing their magic and moves. He was currently in his Wisdom Form and was making sure everything was 100%.

"So, how does it feel?" Raven asked.

"It feels good. Just like old times," Sora said, changing back to normal.

"Definitely a good form to use from a distance," Raven said but saw that Sora wasn't really paying attention. "Hey, Cloud will find him and then we'll save her alright," Raven reassured him.

"I know but I can't help but worry. I mean he hasn't contacted us yet. What's taking him so long?!" Sora said, worried. Suddenly, a loud bang was heard from the roof, scaring the two.

"What was that?" Raven asked.

"I dunno but let's go look," Sora said. Raven grabbed his hand and flew up to phase through the roof and on to the top. They looked around until they saw a figure lying on the roof. They ran over to them until they saw who it was. "ROSE!" Sora said, running over to her and picking her up. He looked at her to see that she was covered in cuts, bruises, her clothes were nearly torn up and she was barely breathing. "Oh my gosh, Rose! Wake up please! Wake up!" Sora begged while new tears ran from his eyes.

"Guys, we found Rose. Get the emergency room ready," Raven said into her communicator before closing it and walking to Sora. "Sora, c'mon we gotta her to the emergency room," Raven said, placing a comforting hand on his shoulder. Sora looked up at her and picked Rose up.

"R-right, let's go," Sora said, walking back into the Tower with Raven behind him. The entered into the emergency room where the others were waiting for them as Sora placed Rose on the nearest bed while Cyborg placed some scanners onto her body.

"Woah," Beast Boy said, shocked.

"Rose…," Starfire replied, worried. Robin placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. Stitch landed on Sora's shoulder and looked at Rose, concerned.

"Is Rose?" Stitch asked, pointing at her.

"S-she's gonna be alright, Stitch," Sora said.

"Sora, help me heal her," Raven said. Sora nodded while they walked to her.

"No wait, look," Cyborg said, pointing at Rose. The team looked to see that the wounds on Rose were slowly healing themselves.

"She's healing. But…how?" Robin asked.

"Slade must've done something to her cells so that she could heal," Cyborg said.

"So, she's gonna be ok?" Beast Boy asked, hopeful. Raven walked up to her and placed her hands on Rose's head.

"Physically yes, but I don't know if I can wake her," Raven said. Sora walked up the bed and placed his hand in Rose's.

"I'm so sorry, Rose. I should've been there," Sora said, sitting down next to the bed. The door to the room opened as Cloud walked in.

"I uh heard you found her," Cloud said, walking up to Sora and placing a hand on his shoulder. "I'm sorry, kid," Cloud said. Sora nodded in confirmation as a silence engulfed the room.

"We'll give you guys a moment," Robin said as everyone but Sora and Cloud left the room.

"W-why? Why did he go after her?" Sora said, crying.

"My only guess…was to make you angry. Make you predictable," Cloud said.

"He- he was already attacking the people of the city and that was getting to me. He didn't have to hurt Rose!" Sora said.

"To him, hurting people is simply getting your attention. Hurting the people closest to your heart is what he considers truly pain. He did the same thing to me," Cloud said, leaning against the wall.

"W-What do you mean?" Sora asked. Cloud sighed a little before speaking.

"When I was in SOLDIER, I had a friend and mentor, Zack Fair. He was my only friend in SOLDIER actually," Cloud said, pulling out his Sword. "I based my sword off his original one but added some changes to it. He said his sword came from his mentor and that it held all his dearest memories. I was a beginner at the time but he was there to back me up when I needed it. But that's when everything went wrong," Cloud said.

"What happened?" Sora asked.

"Zack and I found out the secret to the power Shinra gave us. It came from a dark creature that was classified as Jenova and Shinra experimented with it for their own purposes. We also found out that Sephiroth was heavily injected with Jenova's cells and was technically created from her. Sephiroth found out too and went on a crazed rampage, destroying a nearby town and killing several people," Cloud said, shocking Sora.

"Oh my gosh!" Sora replied.

"Zack, Tifa and I attempted to stop him and we managed to succeed, only temporarily though," Cloud said.

"Tifa? You mean that punching girl?" Sora asked.

"Yeah, her. But Zack got hurt in the process and he wasn't able to go on any longer. And eventually, Sephiroth was reborn from my darkness and came back to haunt me," Cloud said, casting his eyes to the ground. Sora nodded in understanding before placing something in Rose's hands and walked up to Cloud.

"Then let's finish this, here and now," Sora said and Cloud nodded in agreement. The door suddenly opened, as the Raven walked in.

"We found him," She said, and the they ran out of the room. Rose remained motionless as the orange and black seashell charm in her hand glistened from the light in the room.

(Later, in the middle of the city)

The team arrived in the middle of the city with the T-Car and Cloud's motorcycle as they walked out to a very crazy sight.

"What the heck is that?!" Beast Boy asked. In the middle of the city was Sephiroth flying in the air and the very tall hooded creature standing beneath a giant green and blue ball of energy.

"What are they doing?" Robin asked.

"They're going to destroy the city! We have to stop them now!" Cloud said, pulling the bandages off his sword. Sephiroth turned to face the team and smiled.

"Mother, deal with their little team," Sephiroth said. The creature growled and in response and suddenly teleported in front of the team. Cloud then suddenly grunted and held his head in pain.

"Cloud, you alright?" Sora asked.

"It can't be," Cloud said. The creature burned the hood off, revealing a mutated, grotesque, creature with tentacles, two deformed wings out of its back, no legs, it was colored black and blue and a skeletal head with two yellow eyes peering down at them.

"What is this beast?" Starfire asked, summoning her keyblade in a burst of flames.

"Jenova. The darkness behind Shinra," Cloud said. Jenova roared and fired two dark beams of energy at the team but Raven quickly put up a shield to protect everyone.

"Cloud, Sora, go deal with wing boy. We got this thing," Cyborg said, readying his cannon. Cloud nodded and jumped after Sephiroth.

"Okay, you guys be safe," Sora said, gliding after Cloud.

"Titans Go!" Robin yelled as the team charged at Jenova. Robin threw explosive discs while Cyborg fired his cannon and missiles from his shoulders. They hit their mark while Starfire flew forward and began to slice at the creature's tentacles but it eventually grabbed her and threw into a building. Raven chanted a spell and used whips of magic to slice at Jenova while Beast Boy turned into a T-Rex and took a bite out of one of the wings. Jenova roared and froze Beast Boy in time before grabbing him with its tentacles and throwing him at the others, making them scatter and Beast Boy land with a crash. Meanwhile, Sora and Cloud charged at the winged swordsman and clashed blades with him.

"You're gonna pay for what you did to Rose!" Sora yelled, gritting his teeth.

"And how is the lady fairing?" Sephiroth asked smugly.

"Like you care! Sora responded, taking a few swings while Cloud attacked as well but Sephiroth managed to block the attacks and knock the two away onto a nearby roof. The two quickly recovered only for Sephiroth to teleport right in front of them and take multiple swings at them. They blocked as many as they could before they were driven to the edge of the roof. Sora quickly made a Reflect spell and drove Sephiroth back and Cloud unleashed a Cross-Slash on him, staggering him. The winged swordsman quickly recovered and unleashed powerful pillars of fire underneath the two, sending them into the air before being knocked through the roof and into the building by the long sword. They quickly recovered and moved out of the way of a downward from the diving Sephiroth and Sora retaliated with a Strike Raid, distracting him long for Cloud to preform a powerful thrusting move, driving the swordsman back. Sephiroth smiled to himself as powerful winds began to flow around before he swung his sword. Powerful gusts of wind were unleashed from the strike and they knocked Sora and Cloud out of the building and onto the street. Meanwhile, the team continued to fight with the Jenova Heartless but it proved to be quite the difficult foe as it managed to regenerate lost limbs, freeze them in place and deal powerful damage to them.

"It is quite resilient," Starfire said.

"Yeah, whatever, we take off, it grows back like nothing," Beast Boy said.

"We have to keep at it, it can't keep regenerating for long," Robin said. Jenova roared before suddenly more tentacles were summoned from the ground shocking everyone.

"You wanna take that back?" Raven asked.

"Hey, at least it gives us more targets," Cyborg cheered, firing his cannon as Robin created his signature sword. Back with Sora, he and Cloud were struggling with Sephiroth's powerful magic spells. He now infused himself with Fire and with every strike or move, flames followed. Sora quickly summoned a huge Pirate Ship attraction and used the Water cannons to put the fire out and stun Sephiroth while also ramming him with the front of the ship. The swordsman recovered and easily cut through the attraction and knocking Sora to the ground.

"Sora!" Cloud said, running to the keyblade wielder's defense but Sephiroth threw his sword to the ground near him as it released a red and black aura in a wide area. Cloud suddenly felt all his energy leave his body and was very close to death as he fell to the ground. Sephiroth grabbed his sword and walked over to the still recovering Sora and stabbed him in the shoulder. Sora screamed in pain as he was lifted into the air as he dropped the keyblade to the ground. Sephiroth walked over to the keyblade and grabbed it from the ground and inspected it.

"Such power, in such an interesting weapon. I cannot wait to discover all its secrets," Sephiroth said. Suddenly, the keyblade disappeared from his hand and returned to Sora's. "You will give it to me," Sephiroth demanded.

"Never…," Sora said.

"Do you not see? You have lost. Your friends will lose," Sephiroth said as the Titans struggled with Jenova's tentacles. "You have no one else and your city will be destroyed. Everything you fight for will end in failure. Why do you keep going?" Sephiroth asked. Sora coughed as he stared at Sephiroth.

"Because…I fight for my friends. I fight for the light. And no matter what happens, My power will always be with my friends and theirs…will always be with me!" Sora said as his eyes glowed white. Suddenly, he exploded with energy, knocking Sephiroth back as his clothes changed white and he floated into the air. Sephiroth's eyes widened as Sora was now in his Final Form as his Kingdom Key keyblade and the Fenrir keyblade floated behind him. "My friends are my power and I'm theirs!" Sora declared. Cloud's eyes widened at the power Sora had and quickly gave himself a Phoenix Down and recovered as he split his swords into separate blades and a blue energy enveloped him.

"Let's end this Sephiroth!" Cloud said. Sephiroth glared at them as a red energy enveloped him as the three took off into the air and clashed in an incredible display of swordplay, colors, and magic. Meanwhile, the team managed to destroy some of the tentacles but the Heartless proved to be more elusive due to its teleporting powers.

"We need to slow it down!" Robin said, trying to slice at Jenova with his sword but it teleported away as a tentacle smacked him away. The others were struggling to get close to Jenova due to the tentacles when a giant ball of energy appeared out of nowhere, freeing the team. They looked up to see a woman with long, brown hair and rust colored eyes, wearing a black, leather tank top, a black, leather skort that reaches to the ground with two ribbons tied to her legs, black leather gloves on her hands and black and white shoes. The woman put her hands on her hips as the team looked at her in shock, while Beast Boy's eyes turned into hearts.

"Hey, looks like you guys needed some help," the woman said.

"And what's your name, little lady?" Cyborg asked.

"Tifa. And have you guys seen anyone with spiky hair? I've been tracking them down for a while," Tifa asked. The team simply pointed up at the sky and she looked up to see Sora, Cloud, and Sephiroth fighting each other at insane speeds in front of the huge sphere of energy. "Woah, wait…is that Sora?" Tifa asked.

"Better question? Are you seeing anyone lately?" Beast Boy asked, smiling.

"Try having your chances crushed later. We still have that thing to deal with," Raven said as Jenova roared again.

"Tifa, you should get to safety. We'll-huh?" Robin asked as Tifa ran ahead of him and blocked a tentacle attack with a somersault, stunning Jenova. Tifa took that opportunity to unleash multiple expert punches and kicks while yellow energy came from her fists.

"Still think you have a chance?" Cyborg asked Beast Boy, crossing his arms. Beast Boy sunk at the sight of Tifa's fighting skills.

"Let us help her out!" Starfire asked charging in with the Titans behind her. They worked together to destroy the rest of the tentacles and finally destroy the beast with a final strike from Starfire's keyblade. Jenova roared before dissipating in a burst of darkness. Meanwhile, Sora, Cloud, and Sephiroth clashed over and over in the skies before finally crashing back onto the ground. The three combatants took a breath from exhaustion as all three were covered in sword strikes.

"Cloud!" Tifa yelled and said spiky haired person turned to see Tifa and his eyes widened.

"Tifa?! How'd you get here?" Cloud asked.

"I followed you. How do you think I got to Radiant Garden?" Tifa asked in response and Cloud nodded his head in understanding. Sephiroth looked to see the group surrounding him.

"Mother?...No, No!" Sephiroth said, suddenly teleported up into the air and raised his hand to the sky. "Your city, your friends, will all perish!" Sephiroth said as multiple asteroids suddenly came falling from the sky along with the giant sphere.

"What do we do against that?!" Beast Boy asked. Sora quickly created a huge Reflect shield around the city in order to protect it from the asteroids. The shield gained little cracks from the asteroids as the sphere got closer.

"Cloud! When the asteroids are gone, you have to deal with Sephiroth. I'll hold the sphere for as long as I can. Raven, I'll need your help!" Sora said.

"Got it!" Cloud said.

"Ok!" Raven said. The asteroids eventually stopped as the sphere hit the shield. Sora held it back but it eventually began to push him back until Raven added her powers to the mix. The two held it back while Cloud got out of the shield and leaped towards Sephiroth as he made his swords surround the winged swordsman.

"Omnislash!" Cloud said as he used his multiple swords to strike at Sephiroth at multiple angles until he eventually put his swords back together and slashed downwards, knocking Sephiroth into the sphere. "Sora now!" Cloud said. Sora nodded as he pushed the shield upwards and into the air along with Sephiroth and the shield. He continued pushing until he considered it was safe before shooting two powerful beams of light, causing the shield and sphere to explode, creating a massive explosion that could be seen all across the world and nearly blinding the team. When the lights died down, they looked up to see two figures slowly falling to Earth. As they got closer, they saw that it was Sora and a damaged Sephiroth falling.

"He made it!" Cyborg cheered. Raven looked closer to see Sora's clothes change back to black as he continued to fall.

"But he's still falling!" Raven said, quickly flying up to the air and caught Sora with her powers. Meanwhile, Sephiroth, while damaged, still managed to land softly thanks to his burned wing. Raven placed Sora on the ground next to the team and they saw that he was unconscious.

"That was a amazing display of power he showed," Starfire said in awe.

"Yeah, remind me to never make him angry," Beast Boy said. Cloud smiled in response and when Tifa walked up to him but it faded when he saw Sephiroth kneeling on the ground. He was about to walk over to him but Tifa grabbed his hand to stop him.

"Cloud, wait…please," Tifa begged.

"It's alright, Tifa," Cloud said. Tifa slowly nodded and let him go as Cloud walked up to the fallen legend. "It's over Sephiroth. It all ends here," Cloud said. Sephiroth looked up to him and smiled.

"For now. But I will return. I…will always remain a part of you, Cloud," Sephiroth said.

"And I'll be ready. For now, return to my heart," Cloud said. Sephiroth continued to smile as he vanished in a burst of darkness that faded away into the night sky. Cloud let out a satisfying breath before walking back to the others. "It's over. Thank you, everyone for your help," Cloud said before suddenly being bear-hugged by Tifa.

"I'm glad it's over," Tifa said.

"Me too," Cloud said, hugging her back. Suddenly, a groan made everyone turn to see Sora awake and rubbing his head.

"Ugh, remind me to never take a sphere like that to the face," Sora said, making everyone laugh. "Did we win?" He asked.

"Yeah, we won," Robin said. Sora smiled before laying back on the ground, letting out a breath.

"C'mon, we better take him home before he falls asleep," Raven said.

(Later, back at the Tower)

Sora, Cloud, and Tifa were standing on the roof of the Tower, looking out to the city.

"I got to hand it to ya, Sora. This is a nice place. Has a good amount of action while still being a cool city," Tifa said.

"And you have a good team too," Cloud said.

"Yeah, definitely a good place for me to get my strength back," Sora said.

"Are you sure you didn't want to come back with us? We could drop you off wherever you want," Tifa asked.

"No, not yet. Yeah, I'm strong but I think I still have a lot to learn. But be sure to tell the others I said hey, would ya?" Sora asked.

"Of course," Tifa said.

"By the way, how are you guys getting home?" Sora asked when suddenly the sound of a ship flying overhead made him look up to see a red and black ship with dual propellers built on to them.

"Cloud! Tifa! You guys ready to go?" The pilot said over an intercom. Sora's eyes widened at the sound of it.

"Wait, is that Cid?!" Sora asked.

"Yeah, he was a pilot before he became Radiant Garden's computer wiz," Tifa said.

"Well I'll be, is that Sora? How are ya doing, kid?" Cid asked and Sora responded with a thumbs up. Tifa walked up to Sora and placed her hands on his shoulders.

"You take care, Sora. Will we see you again?" Tifa asked.

"Count on it," Sora said smiling. Tifa smiled and walked over to the flying ship. Cloud walked over to Sora.

"Thanks for the help, Sora. Really, I mean it," Cloud said.

"Anytime, Cloud. You take of yourself, alright?" Sora said.

"You do the same," Cloud said before tossing a keychain to Sora who caught it. Sora looked down to that it was a symbol of a wolf, similar to Cloud's pendent. Cloud smiled and began to walk to the ship.

"Ya know, I'm still open for that rematch!" Sora said. Cloud turned his head to Sora and saw a smile on the keyblade wielder's face.

"Still passing on it," Cloud said, running his hand through his hair and boarded the ship.

"Take care, Sora. Hopefully, we'll see ya soon," Cid said as the ship flew off into the air before suddenly warping away. Sora smiled and began to walk back inside the Tower. He made his way to his room when Raven walked up to him.

"Hey, Rae. Whassup?" Sora asked.

"We got a little surprise for you. C'mon," Raven said, grabbing his hand and dragged him to the Ops room where the others were.

"What's going on guys?" Sora asked.

"We thought that it would be important to educate you," Starfire said.

"Educate me? In what?" Sora asked. His answer was a huge pile of Disney movies, ranging from Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs to Pirates of the Caribbean.

"Hey! Aladdin, Jack, Mulan, Simba, Ariel. Hey, look Stitch its you!" Sora said as Stitch crawled up to him and smiled upon seeing himself.

"So, you really have met all these people?" Cyborg asked.

"Uh-uh, they're all really great people. I wonder how they're all doing," Sora said.

"So, how is this going to work?" Robin asked.

"Simple, we're gonna watch every single movie that Disney ever made so that Sora is caught up," Beast Boy said.

"Uh, BB, that would days or even weeks to do. And we don't have that much time for that," Cyborg said.

"How about this? We just watch the movies that have the people Sora knows. That should make it easy for us," Raven said.

"Sounds good with me," Sora said. Stitch put in the first movie and everyone got comfortable on the couch as the beginning of Snow White played.

"This is really strange but so far I like it," Sora said.

"You'll get used to it," Raven said. The two were so engraved in the movie that they didn't notice that their hands were together and their shoulders rested together.

And that's the end, guys! Whew, that took forever! I'm so sorry for the holdup guys, classes have started back up and I've been working a lot too.
