2nd Key Smash
Who: Sora and Luna
Content: There's a reason Sora nearly blasted his hotel room with a Thunder spell the night Bruce figured out how to work the communictor...
Location: Sora's room and his dreams
Time of Day: What passes for night here
Warnings: Violence
Sora's dreams have been running a gamut from weird to silly to mildly disturbing to outright frightening. The weird and silly ones generally dealt with his friends and the fun parts of his adventures, when they were memories intruding on his dreams. The disturbing and frightening ones dealt, not surprisingly with the battles and the bleak situations. The straight up dreams tended to be more bizarre and much rarer. Mostly, his dreams since the Keyhole started appearing in everyone's dreams were memories. Like everyone else, he was seeing the Keyhole too, and experiencing someone or something, depending upon the individual dream, keeping him away from it. The majority tended toward the worst things he'd seen, often starting with his very first glimpse of the Heartless, which had itself been in a dream.
Most of the battles his dream memories covered were with the Organization, including some he couldn't remember when he was awake. In keeping with the fact that he was dreaming and the Keyhole was an insistent presence lately, it was the members of the Organization that were keeping him away from the Keyhole most of the time, often quite violently.
On this occasion it was Xemnas, as it had been on the night Bruce had figured out how to work the communicator. An outside observer not familiar with him might note that he bore a resemblance in build and features to Terra. However, the appearance differed in that his hair was silver, his eyes golden, his skin noticeably darker than Terra's and he wore the black coat of the Organization. The battle took place at the Altar of Naught, with the Keyhole appearing in front of the heart-shaped moon in the sky. Sometimes the battlefield around them shifted, showing the Nightmarish Abyss where Sora had had his last real battle with Xemnas or the chamber in Hollow Bastion where Sora had first battled Maleficent. He had also had his first battle with Xemnas there, though he was unaware of that as yet, that memory somehow lost along with those of Castle Oblivion. Still other times, the field shifted to a huge void of gray and white that seemed to stretch out to infinity. Basically, if Sora had encountered Xemnas there, the battlefield shifted to that, even if they hadn't actually fought there.
Not surprisingly, Sora was coming off the worst in this fight, if only because the nature of nightmares dictated that it be so. Probably, it was also because this dream Xemnas was fighting as he had when they'd fought for real in the white and gray void, a battle that Sora had not fought alone in the waking world. This was where Sora ran into his biggest problem...
“Can you spare a heart?”
'Damn.' Even though he knew what that question meant, because he knew he was dreaming and he remembered what had happened when that question had been asked in the course the real battle, he still couldn't avoid the attack that followed. He tried, hence the Thundaga he shot off in a vain attempt to keep Xemnas from taking hold of him and trying to take his heart by force. Normally, this was where he woke from this nightmare because he knew Riku wasn't here to save him this time. Normally.
Sometimes it went on a bit longer, both exaggerating the pain that attack had caused him and showing him what could have happened if he had been alone for the real battle. It is in this state, with his very life force being painfully drained from him, that a visitor to his dreams might find him...

Considering that Riku still seemed bothered by it sometimes, it was probably safe to say it had been difficult, and that wasn't even counting... whatever had happened when device of Ansem's had exploded.

"Nonetheless, we shall keep that in mind. If it can be done, it must be attempted." She dismissed the matter with a nod of her head - they didn't need to make a decision right this second, when nothing indicated it would actually come to pass.
