A Sorrowful Portal.

=-I walk to the roof of the grocery store and stand in the center of it. The moon hangs in the air, neither sad nor happy. Just existing surving it's purpose. From my back pocket I pull out a scroll. It glows as I perform hand signs rapidly. In bright glow, the scroll expands and forms a circle, a portal. A portal that once led to the Bursting Energy Village.-=

What I couldn't protect, what I wasn't worthy to protect.. =-The Symbol of the Burst on the back of my jacket feels as if it burn my very skin. Althought what I'm feeling is nothing but guilt and uselessness. My Keyblade rushes to my hand. I raise it to sky and stare at it.-= What made my heart summon you? Doesn't matter. =-I draw back the blade as if I was prepared to stab something.-= This blade was to help me protect the Village, that's where my heart was then, that is why you appeared to me. But now, it's gone......just as you should be. =-I stab the Keyblade into the portal and jump back. Violently the portal snaps and makes a gurgling noise. It then implodes on itself the Keyblade gone with it. A scroll, the portal let on the ground. I then walk over to the edge of the building and take a sit, looking down at the ground below.=-

=-I smile as I sit down. A blade that couldn't provide for me. I smile in hopes of the blade reaching someone with the poteintal to be a savior=-

???: Is this what you've been doing for the past year Reject? Sitting on roofs?!

*A mysterious voice echoes throughout the area*

-=Quickly jumping to my feet, I call forth Epitaph's Promise and look around, my Chakra Eye activated and Chakra flowing inside my body=-

Who's there?!!?

*I toss my hands into the air as if I were being arrested. As I do this I reveal myself from a dark orb in the roof.*

Calm down Reject. No one's after you!! *I slash at a bug that flies by with my claw. It falls to the ground in a glowing dark purple energy*

Atomsk? -=I away my blade as I start to walk toward him-=
What are you doing here?! What happened to the Proctors?! The Burst?!! -=I grab Atomsk by his shoulder eager for an answer.-= Come on, tell me.

Get off!! *I loose myself from Aeon's grip.* Calm down and you'll get an explanation. Damn, *I begin to walk around in a circle my hands behind my head.*

Let's start with the first question, I'm here because I'm a Drifter. I have no home, it's what I do. *This was intentionally a smart-ass response. Trying to piss Aeon off*

As for the second question....*I hold a silence for a bit and look to Aeon. An air of a certain seriousness fill the atmosphere* well...I'm not too sure.

*I just happen to be walking by and I notice Aeon and Atomsk so I jump on the roof* hi Aeon Hi black Aeon what cha doing

Neku? What are you doing here?? -=I look to Neku and then back to Atomsk. After his answers to my questions my stomach starts to hurt. Maybe it's the guilt of the Burst. Maybe the Proctors are dead, everyone in the Village...thump!! My head starts to pound, memories run wild through my head...things start to blur....but it all soon fades. I shake my head as I await for something else to happen=-

felt you and Atomsk's energy's up here so I came to see what's up

*I yell as I fall to my knees. I look at my claw and quickly grab it. A ominous glow barely emits from the arm. I grunt as I quickly stand up. I look to Aeon with a scowl on my face.*

Atomsk, -=I take a careful look at Atomsk's body=- What's going on? What just happened to you?
-=I look sternly at Atomsk,-= I want to know what's going on.

I think I'm the one should be asking you that question!! *I point a finger at Aeon, anger rising through my voice*

What have you been doing with yourself this past year?!

-=At a lost for words, I simply look to the ground. My memories still haven't fully returned.=-
What does that matter now? I'm asking about you. What happened to you, why'd you yell?

You and I. We're connected. *I look to Aeon.* Whatever you been doing over this past year has been affecting me.... negatively. Tell me now so that I can figure out how to stop this. *I tap my foot on the ground as I look at Aeon.* because whatever is happening to me is bound to happen to you...

I don't know where I was or what I did....my memories are gone, Atomsk. -=The little information I did have wouldn't be enough to learn anything I'm sure...so I'll keep quiet.-= I can't help you.

What the hell do you mean!?! *I rush up to Aeon and grab him by the neck* You can't remember! What kind of shit is that!? My body's on the line and you can't remember!?! Dammit, you Reject!!! *My arms begins to glow darker as an eerie energy-like smoke starts to rise. I hold my arm tight and grit my teeth as it begins to subside.* Enough of this talk....... *I extend my left hand. In a dark glow a blade is formed a Souba. I point the blade toward Aeon and smirk* Get ready!

Atomsk!! -=There is no use talking to Atomsk, he won't listen anyway. I extend my as I call forth Synchro.=- Fine let's do this your way. -=I vanish within seconds appearing above Atomsk. Synchro glowing as I release a beam downward toward Atomsk-=

Idiot!! *As the beam falls down, I spin as I slash with my Souba, releasing two close slash-waves. The waves collide with the beam, creating smoke. I then burst from the smoke at high-speed causing it to spread outward. My Souba glowing purplish-black is tightly gripped in my hand as I slash at Aeon. Darkness waves flying everywhere*

{While in the air, I start to spin releasing kicks that emit Chakra waves that cancel out the Dark Waves.} I want to find out as much as you, but this won't help anything! {After dealling with the barrage of darkness, I grip Synchro and dart toward Atomsk in a powerful Sonic Blade strike}

HAHAAHAH You are nothing!! *I raise my claw into the air and it begins to glow. A purplish-black aura surrounding it.* Try this!! *I lunge forward toward Aeon and clash with his Sonic Blade assauult. Chakra begins to swirl all around us. Seeping from the claw is a weird smokey glow. I cringe as my arm starts to hurt*

-=My head just pounds and pounds as the batle continues=-
Shiitt..... -=The attacks cause a small explosion and seperate Atomsk and I. I fall hard to the ground and cause as the dust around me was kicked up.-= arrrg....-=my head starts to hurt more as memories flood them=-

*I place my hand on the ground to recover quickly and flip to regain myself. I raise my left hand into the air as the black smoke begins to rise ever rapidly* Ke..hehehe *I begin to laugh as I activate my Chakra eye. Its red glow heavily accented by a black glowing outline.* Although this thing hurts sometimes, it has given me a few interesting things, and I'll use those things to find out what you've done to my body!!! *I reach back and then thrust forward with my left hand. My arm streches out toward Aeon. It's black glow outlined with red. The claw streches out as well attempting to grab Aeon*

-=Standing up I shake my head and finally look up to see Atomsk's arm lurching toward me.=- The hell?! -=Caught completely off guard the hand grabs me and quickly reels me in, smashing me into various structures atop the roof. I find myself in front of Atomsk's face staring at him eye to eye.=-

*I stare into the eyes of Aeon* How can you not remember anything from the past year?! *The hand and claw decrease in size back to normal with me holding Aeon by his collar. I shake him a bit.* Remember!! Dammit!! *Still holding on I grit my teeth as pain racks my arm. I try my hardest to hold on and am succesful* AEON!!!

.......-=I turn my head and look at the ground. I look to Atomsk's arm=- I can understand why you're upset. Even though we've established our two different existances, my decesion have still affected you. Honestly I didn't really mind not knowing, but now...now I have to remember. For my sake and yours. -=I clench my fist=- Please just give me some time....
