A friend and I have been doing a RP for a while now, and it has been scattered across several threads on two different sites. It started as a group story (about fast food of all things ) but then it transformed into something else entirely.

 

We request that nobody join in this RP or post anything on this thread; if you wanna say how awesome we are, message us some other way.

 

Um...You're free to read this for fun if you want to, but this thread has major Birth By Sleep spoilers. And since we've been doing this for a while, we will probably refer to things we've done in the past and you will have no idea what we're talking about. So if you want to save yourself from confusion, then you probably wanna stay away. If not, hey, whatever.

 

The plot was discussed and posted on another website, but here's a quick summary of the whole thing: It's the return of Xehanort.

 

Characters:

Peanut: Sora, Namine, Leon, Aerith, King Mickey, Terra, Ventus, Xehanort, etc.

Forever Love: Riku, Kairi, Roxas, Yuffie, Aqua, Vanitus, Tron, etc.

 

I believe I've said everything that needs to be said...Forever Love, let's get this show on the road, eh?

Tron searched the database, and then he found it. "Aha! You'll find the threat in the central processor," he told Lightning then. "The capability of eliminating the threat there is higher than any other area in the database."

"Alright," Light said, furrowing her eyebrows and taking a small step back once her codes were all typed in. She was surprised Tron didn't question what she did, but she was glad, too; he didn't need to know yet what she was scheming. "Can you send me in?" She would save her friends and then go to the central processor.

"Of course," Tron replied, nodding if he could. "Step back in front of the Transporter and I'll grant you access." She would go straight to the Grid, where her friends were. She would have to help before she got to the processor to delete the virus.

Lightning didn't know what he meant by "transporter", but she turned around and glanced at the laser. That's probably it. She took a few steps towards it, though when she stopped in front of it, she asked Tron a question. "Do I need armor or anything?" She saw everybody else's clothes were different; maybe hers would be too.

"I'm glad you asked," Tron said, since he was going to explain anyway. "When you get into the Grid, I'll have altered your physical appearance by adding data. You'll be dressed in an alternate suit than those of the others, but you'll have the ability to use the Discs." She would have the element of surprise on her part, since she wouldn't be recognized.

"Disks?" Lightning asked, blinking slightly and glancing over her shoulder at the computer. She didn't know what that was supposed to mean, obviously, since she asked about it. But she was glad that she was going to be disguised; that way, none of her friends would be stubborn and stick around to help her.

"Your weapons in the Grid," Tron elaborated in more detail. "You'll understand soon enough. Now, are you ready?" There wasn't any time to lose; their friends were in trouble.

Lightning looked back to the laser in front of her, her hands by her sides curling into fists. "Yeah. I'm ready." She didn't know what it would be like to be transported into this world, but she wasn't afraid. And she wasn't going to let her wounded heart keep her from fighting for her friends. As soon as she got in, she was forcing them to take their leave.

Tron typed in a few keys, entering the code for the Transporter. "Good luck, Lightning," he said just before the laser shot out, beginning to transfer her into the Grid. She would hopefully be successful.

Lightning heard the words, calmly shutting her eyes when the beam hit her and she was transported to the data world. Whatever was in store for her there, she was ready. It was time to help her friends.

 

Ven grunted when one of the clones knocked him back closer to Aqua and Terra, the teen landing on one knee. Everyone was gathered together, surrounded. They had been fighting for a while, and he knew all of them were too wounded and too exhausted to keep this up. He blinked, though, when he saw a light in the sky, something forming. A...person? He watched them finish appearing and then drop to the ground in front of everyone, kneeling before standing between the Keybladers and the clones. Who is that?

 

Lightning stood up in front of everyone, briefly glancing down at the black suit that had red lights in it. Does that reflect my Paradigm? she thought in wonder, looking back up immediately at the clones. It was an army, and she would be an army of one to defeat them. Feeling the weight on her back, she reached back her hand and grabbed the Disk that was supposed to be her weapon.

Riku was panting heavily from battle, and he stood up straight at the new appearance. "Hey!" he called, taking a small step forward. Who was this person? Given the figure, they were female. But...where did they come from, and who were they? Why were they helping him and his friends?

Lightning didn't glance back, not wanting to see what kind of shape Riku and Ventus were in. The colors of the lines in her suit changed to a light green as she cast Cure on everyone behind her, seeing that the clones didn't know what to do with her. That was good, but she wasn't going to use that surprise for an advantage in battle. She cured her friends, so now all she had to do was create an exit route for them.

Aqua looked down, briefly seeing her body glow green from the Cure spell. What...? Who was this person? She looked to her friends briefly before she gazed at the clones, and the person that stood in between them. She still held her Keyblade in her hand, much like the others, prepared to keep fighting. There wasn't any other choice, was there?

Tron, I can't let them know who I am right now, Lightning silently thought, her Paradigm shifting yet again so she became a Ravager. Once I have a path clear, tell them to get out of here. She pulled back her disk and chucked it, casting Aero as she did. A tornado followed the path of the disk, destroying a huge number of clones that had been in its path. Okay, that's pretty cool.

Roxas could only stare in silence, not sure what to think of this situation. They were being...helped? They actually had an ally? Does Tron know about this? After all, he was the one who knew everything that went on inside Space Paranoids.

Lightning jumped up to catch the disk that boomeranged back to her, her grasp on it secure. But she instinctively reached down and pulled at it a little, surprised when it split into two disks. She smirked slightly behind her mask, seeing the clones ready for a fight. Bring it on. She threw one disk at the area in front of her, fire emanating from it as it hit the clones and made them vanish. The other disk she threw to make the path wider, for her friends' escape.

Riku grunted, seeing what was going on here. A path?! She was actually helping them flee? But...they couldn't just leave her to fight for herself!

 

"A path..." Aqua said, her eyes on the area not too far off. They could take it, since she was sure she wasn't the only one that noticed this girl was helping them escape, whoever she was.

"It leads to the place we were transported in..." Terra said, looking down the path. Tron could transport them back to the real world, but what about this stranger? She just came out of nowhere and was fighting their enemies for them. Were they really supposed to leave her alone?

"Sora, you and your friends must leave the Game Grid as soon as possible," Tron said, coming through the system to deliver details to his friends. "You have an ally within the database with you. Let them take care of the trouble for now."

 

Riku glanced up at the ceiling of the Grid, hearing what Tron had to say. They had to leave, and let all of these clones take on one person? I'm...not so sure. This doesn't sound like a good idea. Besides, who is she?

 

"Tron's right," Aqua said with a small nod, tightening her grip on her Keyblade as she looked to the boys. "Whoever's helping us, they seem to know what they're doing. And surely Leon, Cloud, and Yuffie can't handle the clones outside the database themselves. They need our help." They had to help protect the people of Radiant Garden and the Princesses. Surely they hadn't forgotten that.

"We've gotta get going, whether we like it or not," Sora said, looking around to his allies while the girl in the suit kept the path as clear as possible. But how long can she keep this up? He was concerned for her, whoever she was. He had never met her in the database before.

"Sora, quickly!"

 

"Move, now!" Aqua ordered reasonably, starting toward the path in a sprint. She kept her Keyblade in her hand, and when a clone tried jumping at her, she swiped at it, only continuing to run as it disappeared. Roxas was hot on her tail, following her lead.

Sora grunted, following Tron's order and Aqua's lead. He was right behind his Nobody, passing by the person who was fighting hard to keep the path clear. He didn't know who she was or how she got to the grid, but he was thankful.

 

Ventus ran by the person in armor after Terra did, giving his thanks as he did. He hoped he could meet this person again and thank them some other time, when things weren't so rushed. She really saved their lives.

 

Just be sure to get out of this alive, Ven, Light thought in response to Ventus's gratitude. Her work was for nothing if they didn't get out of here, and if she didn't stop the manufacturing of the manikins. She grunted when a blade hit her back, the young woman swinging around and cutting through the enemy with her disk. This isn't good.

Unlike the others, Riku hesitated a little. He took a few steps over, his eyes narrowing behind his mask as he looked to the girl that was helping them out. Something seemed...familiar about her, but he couldn't place it. He then started running, that way he could leave with his friends and not hold them back. Whoever their ally was, he was sure that she had everyone's gratitude. Thanks.

Lightning saw Riku run off down the path, and she ran behind him to cover his back, since she couldn't keep the path open any longer. And she had some business at the computer over there, once everyone was back home. She cast Thunder, taking out many clones while ignoring the injury that had nagged her for a while.

Aqua continued running at the head of the group, seeing an area up ahead. "That'll transport us, right?" she called back, making sure she was understanding everything correctly. Could they get back to Radiant Garden this way?
