"Zexion's attacking from a distance with the Hollows. He doesn't want to give involved himself unless it's absoulutely necessary.", Aaron thought aloud. Everything was coming together.
Aaron turned to the portal. "I'm going in. Nami, you stay here. I'll be fine. Just rest.", Aaron said. Without another word, he stepped through the portal......
.....and appeared before the Throne of the Time Lord.
"Enuch.", the name appeared in Aaron's mind. Aaron's eyes narrowed. This didn't seem right, somehow.
"Welcome, Aaron, tut-tut.", Enuch said. Aaron made a slight bow. "Thank you, Enuch. I have a few questions for you.", Aaron said.
"Speak.", Enuch responded.
"Why are the world's collapsing? It can't be because of the Heartless. The Hollows have become much more common.", Aaron said.
"Yes....It is not the Heartless. The Heartless and Nobodies have all but disappeared. The Hollows devour them in their quest for power. The Heartless have retreated to Kingdom Hearts, and the Nobodies have retreated to Betwit and Between. The Hollows mantain dominance....Because Zexion created them....", Enuch said.
"Zexion created the Hollows?", Aaron asked.
"Yes, magnificent creatures....The Hollows are born in a fusion chamber that distorts space, and fuses them together. Horrible, really. It's like forcing two magnets together. You could go as far as to say that Hollows are complete beings--they have the hearts from a Heartless, and a soul from the Nobody. But, the heart and soul don't match, which is why the Hollows constantly bi-link to people. After so much exposure, the person dies, and the Hollow devours the heart. Most people don't know it's even there.", Enuch said.
"....What would happen if a Hollow found it's original heart?", Aaron asked.
"Then a Super-Hollow would be born. Thts' how your friend Kioki, Pisces, and Mamos came into being. Their masks crumble away, and they appear almost human. But they seal their powers into the weapons they carry, and upon releasing their powers, they can take their Hollow form once again with added power.", Enuch said,
"So, when we fought them, they were actually fighting under a limit?!", Aaron shouted.
"Precisely. And now, because of that girl, all worlds will end. You should kill her now, Aaron. If you really love her.", Enuch's voice turned demonic.
"what...? Why would I do that? We can still save the universe!!", Aaron shouted.
"There is no hope, unless you kill her.", Enuch stated simply.
"No...YOUR NOT ENUCH!!", Aaron shouted, drawing his sword.
"what is this treachery? Guards, seize him!!", Enuch commanded. To large creatures with black and white skin approached Aaron--one had a large jawbone underneath his face--the other was shorter, and had part of a mask over his left eye. Super-Hollows.
Aaron turned towards them, and slashed at the larger one, knocking part of the lower half of his jawbone off. The smaller one immediately rushed in, and placed his two pliant fingers to Aaron's chest. Aaron was immediately bound by a spell that disabled his movement.
"Tut-tut....This disguise is so futile.", enuch said. He stood, and a wave of darkness washed over him, as he transformed into Zexion. However, he looked different--He had long claws on his hand, and his skin had turned pale black. He had a long tail with a rattle at the end. There was part of a white mask over his mouth, that muffled his speech.
"Tsk, tsk, Aaron...You always were weak. You were never interested in power. In my quest to discover what I was, I did many experiments, using Vexen as a puppet to do my dirty work. It worked. I discovered the Hollows. As a last chance for my research, I turned myself into a Hollow, just recently...My mask is proof of it. I briefly lost my sanity, and went insane, devouring Heartless and Nobodies on a rampage...but, then I regained it by devouring a single heart....and my mask crumbled away, and I reverted to my original form, witha tail and claws. Now do you see the level of power I have attained?", Zexion asked.
It was true. Zexion not only had the power of the dark Kingdom Hearts on his side, but he also had the powers of a Super Hollow.
A scythe appeared in Zexion's hands, as black as his skin, and almost twice as tall as him. The blade was rigged,k and had a skull on the hilt.
"This is the Deathscythe. It has the interesting ability to make whatever is cut by it to experience a like-like illusion of death for 72 hours.", Zexion said. He charged, swinging the scythe back, as he swung at Aaron. Aaron raised his sword, and blocked the scyth, but was instantly thrown into the left wall.
As Aaron stood, he realized it was much more difficult to lift his sword.
"It also has the ability to make whatever it hits twice as heavy. Right now, your sword is twice as heavy as it was a moment ago. It will slowly become too heavy to lift, and you'll be defenseless.", Zexion said. He charged again, only fasted this time, and Aaron sturggled to block. As the blade hit Aaron's sword, the tip also slashed across Aaron's arm, making it heavy as well.
Zexion leapat back, and his scythe disappeared ina flash of light. Extending his arms, sveral blackish-red blades of energy appeared around him.
"devils' Dance!!", he cackled. throwing his arms wildly as he stepped along ina dance like motion, the energy blades were sent towards Aaron. Aaron would dodge or block one, but another would spin around and slash his arm. As he blocked them and got hi, he realized they had the same properties as Zexion's scythe. Both of his arms were four times as heavy than they were before, and his sword was eight times as heavy.
"how can I beat him...?", Aaron gasped.

) which world are you on? And in the event I'm interested, where's Cloud?)
