Broken Barriers: Grey Hearts

Chapter 6: Whole and Complete

Tokoyami still had two days in control. The system they used to decide things was purely luck based, like gambling. Everyone first played chance for who went in what order, and then again for how many days. Or day, for the really unlucky.

In order it was Tokoyami for three days, Clemintine for two, Alucard for three, Zeke for five, Mors for one, Raven for two, Eran for two, Miles for five, Starlight for one, Unum for three, Core for three, Raga for six… Wait a minute…

“I had an idea.” Eclipsa said, getting Tokoyami’s attention. “You know how my heart is the optional piece to yours, right?”

“Yes. What of it?” Tokoyami asked.

“Well if we… finished that, put them together we’d be one person, but I have starfish clones, so wouldn’t that mean I could just, make a clone for each of us and we wouldn't have to wait to see a certain someone or explore, then we can just do that?”

“That...might work. I’ll tell the others, give me a moment.” Tokoyami said, his eyes glowing black and white for a while before he blinked and they were normal. “They are up for it. Will definitely help get around this obstacle.”

"Yeah, I thought the same." Eclipsa said.

"Are you sure you want this though? You didn't want this outcome originally because of how we are now."

"I know, I know but… I've been thinking lately. We are up against one vary… worrying enemy and whatever foot soldiers and allies he can get, some.might be a cake walk others might not, and I don't know if I'll be able to tell the difference. Zeke knows I hide my fears and worry with confidence and sarcasm…"

"But you promised him no more hiding your true emotions, no more masks." Tokoyami said with an understanding nod.

"I need to be more serious. I need to take this seriously, and with all of us able to be out at once we'd be a damn near unstoppable group, and in proper teams we can deal with multiple threats. Including Zeke there are twenty one people all sharing a body in you, with me that's twenty two and in groups of two that's eleven teams of powerful fighters. Each person able to summon countless Keyblades… even shift into them if needed to add extra firepower."

"I see what you mean." Tokoyami said in thought. "That plan is well thought out. How long have you been thinking about this?"

"Honestly, since I gave birth. I just kept thinking, what would be the most efficient way of both helping and fighting while also keeping my family safe. Zeke and I can do so much and I don't want to dance and avoid the issues anymore. I'm going to tackle them head on. Besides, it helps you all also, gives you your freedoms and some sense of life back."

Tokoyami said nothing, but nodded with a small smile across his...beak. "Alright then. Shall we get started then?"

"Yeah… but not here, ya know, just in case."

"Okay then, where?"

Eclipsa smiled. "I have a world in mind." Summoning Oathkeeper, Eclipsa opened a DTG(Door to Grey) and the 'duo' entered, exiting, while Tokoyami knew the world, he was surprised to see it, but he has never been there before. The Keyblade Graveyard.

"Why here?" Tokoyami asked. "I've heard the stories, but why here?"

"Irony really. This place has a dark past, but I don't think that should define the future this world can have."Eclipsa said, slithering around, taking a deep breath. "Alright, I'm ready." She said, holding out her hand.

Nodding, Tokoyami was about to reach for her hand, but stopped. "If you don't mind, there is someone else who should be out for this."

Tokoyami said, without a word becoming cloaked in darkness. A short time later, emerging from it was, Zeke. "Are you really sure about this Eclipsa?" Zeke asked.

"Yes. Like I told Tokoyami, and like I promised to you, it's time to take this more seriously, we need to work together and this way we can, we all can. And Zeke."

"Hm?" Zeke asked.

"I want you to promise me, don't hold back what you can do either. I know what you can do is scary, and it scares you, but so long as I am here, so long of all of our loved ones are here with us, you don't have reason to fear what you can do. So from now on, don't hold back, okay?" Eclipsa asked, placing both hands on Zeke's shoulders, the Naga making herself even with Zeke's eyes.

Silent for a bit, Zeke took in a large breath. "Okay Eclipsa." They said, giving the Naga a quick kiss, the Naga making it a longer passionate one, and then, Everything went white.


Grasping, Eclipsa shot upright. She felt… stronger. So much stronger, on a level she didn't, couldn't quite understand. Her heart felt… different, it felt… complete. Whole, as if parts that were missing were now there. The rush of the power sent a shiver from.the back of her neck all the way down to her tails end, and goosebumps across her skin, her upper half a coat standing on edge as pure power flooded her.

Calming herself down from the sudden power high, she looked around, seeing her love, Zeke, laid next to her on the ground in an almost blissful unconsciousness. As the dust and debris cleared. The others all began appearing around her, Alucard, Core, Umum, Tokoyami, Trixie, Starlight, all of them. Relieved, Eclipsa gave a long content sigh and a few happy giggles. Her risk payed off. Sliding over some, she lifted Zeke's head and rested it atop her long lower body. Not waking up but breathing, she began caressing Zeke's head, silently singing an all too familiar song. "When you walk away, you don't hear me say, please, oh baby, don't go. Simple and clean is the way that you're making me feel tonight… it's hard to let it go."

The softly sung song seemed to be keeping Zeke at ease, their slumber looking more relaxed, as we're the others. When the song was over Eclipsa smiled. "Is this how you have always felt Zeke? This intense, overflowing power?" She asked her still slumbering love. "It's unbelievable. I… I see why you were afraid to go all out. Makes me wonder if you even did back in our dual…" Eclipsa said in thought before shaking her head. "Doesn't matter anymore anyways. We all can, and will do so much good for everyone. Our world keeps getting bigger and more dangerous, but as long as we are all together, we will make it through this, and all that is to come."
