Matt countered with a tremendous battle cry. He leapt foward, his powered arm seizing the monster's head, and he brought it down to the earth, attempting to crush the monster's skull.

"DIE, you BASTARD!" Matt screamed, as the sections along the Atomic Hammer opened again, generating new propulsion to accelerate and magnify his attack.

(Did i post this message before?If so,than pm me pls)

X hitted straight through the Nobody's head.A huge hole appeared at the Nobody's head.It started to stumble...than fall.A loud thump happened and X landed.He revert himself from Mickey and Roxas."So....its dead right?"Roxas peered at the Nobody."Yup...Now come on..We have to get into the city and find the Organization.."X jumped over the dead Nobody and went runing into the raining city.Roxas followed but The King stayed behind.Roxas stopped in a halt."Hey Mickey...Why aren't you moving?"Roxas asked."I sensed there is a Heartless around..."The King looked around the dark forest.Just than,another big rumbled happened and Roxas stumbled backwards."What's that!?"Roxas screamed."A Heartless!Where's X!?"King looked around desprately but X was not to be found.

X did'nt care if the King or Roxas was behind.What it matters to him is to find the Organization."So...Its been a long time when the last time I see you.."came a familiar voice from behind.

The beast's head was punched right through the stone floor. It growled crazily, then roughly pulled his head out and countered with a quick uppercut at Matt's head.

The uppercut slammed into Matt's chin. "Unh!" But just as soon as he was hit, he came right back, teeth clenched. "Nice shot!" He drew back the Atomic Hammer. "Now here's MINE!"

A few hundred pounds of heavy metal knuckle slammed down toward the beast's head.

The monster caught the attack by wrapping its arms around the Atomic Hammer. Growling, it attempted to throw the enraged teen at Hugo and Hsien-Ko.

Matt was thrown, but landed solidly on his metal fist, creating a small crater due to the impact. That didn't stop him from running right back into battle, fist chambered.

"Damn it Matt, calm down!" Hugo shouted, firing a shot at the beast.

"This coming from you!" Hsien-Ko remarked, lashing out her claws.

"Ah, shaddup!"

The beast made a defeaning roar as its opponent charged it, ignoring the attacks sent at it. It hunched down on all fours and charged Matt, snarling. At the last moment, it lunged forward, claws extended.

"I'm officially f***ing sick of you!" Matt shouted, stopping in place as he saw the beast coming.

He swung a huge upward arc with the Atomic Hammer. "DIE, you F***ER! Atomic GEYSER!"

As soon as Matt swung, an angled blast of explosive, burning energy erupted from the ground at the monster.

The monster had no chance to block or avoid the attack. The energy struck the beast head-on, crushing bones and practically liquifying organs. When the energy cleared, the beast had been reduced to a melted pile of gore.

At the monster's death, dozens of roars could be heard all throughout the island. They matched the roars of the beast the group had just slain. If they wanted to survive, they'd have to retreat... and quickly.

"That doesn't sound good!" Hugo shouted, glancing around.

"F*** this!" Matt snapped. "Let's GO, NOW!"

So the group did, hightailing it back toward the yacht before drawing further attention.

===Some time later, on another island===

Two soaked figures had washed up on a small island. As time passed, one of them stirred. R.D. pushed himself up onto all fours, coughing harshly. He looked around, and soon crawled over to the unconscious form of Alasea. He looked her over, and found that she wasn't injured, and was still breathing. He let go of a breath he didn't realize he was holding.

He sat back on his shins and looked around. Alasea's blades were stuck in the sand near them, as well as his own Phase Blade, which was still activated.

"Alright, so where the hell are we?" he asked himself.

"You seem to be stuck on an island between the one you were previously on, and the mainland," Ondal answered.

R.D. looked behind him, not even startled, and gazed on the strange apparition. He then sighed. This is not my day.

"Gun it!" Matt shouted.

"I am, I am!" Hsien-Ko said, getting the yacht ready to go.

"Do it FASTER!" Hugo snapped, waving his pickaxe around in excitement.

"I AM! Calm down!"

"When we get going we're going to sweep around the island," Matt said. "We gotta try and find R.D. and Alasea before those f***ing monsters get them."

"So, why are you here, Ondal?" R.D. asked.

"To warn you," the being replied.

"Warn me. Great," R.D. spat dryly, "Never to congratulate on a job well done. You Artisans are all the same. Never respecting those doing... your..." he trailed off.

R.D. blinked. Okay, what the hell was that?

Ondal, however, was smiling. "So, it seems they're already returning to you, just as I said."

R.D. stared at the Artisan. "Okay, so now what? That Principality brat said I had to return home. Any way off this island?" he asked.

"Yes. There was an old fishing village on this island. It's nearby. You'll be able to find a boat there."

R.D. nodded, then turned to Alasea when she groaned. She opened her eyes and looked at R.D., then passed out. R.D. frowned. "This better not be some suicide trip, Ondal," he said as he turned back around. "Ondal?"

The Artisan had disappeared.

"... dammit."

Dark Wolf disappered before the the blasts made contact.He then reappared 10 feet behind Virus,then two spheres of dark wolf energy formed in his hands,he then morphed the two spheres together making one huge ball of dark wolf energy," HOKKAIDO BLAAAAAAST!!!!!"he shot the huge blast coming right for Virus.Then with uncanny speed he teleported into the air.He then started spining with his arms streched his out at his sides faster than the speed of light.beams came out of his hands during every spin thus sending a shower of beams coming with uncanny speed heading right for Virus and including the Hokkaido blast.

Veronica shook her head.
"I-I a-assume y-y-you d-do."

"Then what are you going to do with us now?" Bryant asked, almost bored, yet not in a rush.

Matt walked onto the deck, where Hugo stood with his radar spinning at a steady rate. "Anything?"

"Nothin'," Hugo answered. "I'm beginnin' to assume the worst."

"Well, don't." Matt looked out toward the rocks they sailed by. "I know they're alive somewhere..."

===At Matt's island===

More Ruinsman beasts made their way cliffside, growling and roaring as they spotted the boat. Charging up energy, they began firing blasts of lightning and fire at the boat. Many of them fell short, but some of them overshot the yacht, and others came dangerously close to them.

===At R.D.'s island===

R.D. was busy helping Alasea walk along the beach. Between getting beaten by the monster and thrown into the ocean, she was too weak to do anything else on her own.

"So... how do you know... that there's a way off this place?" she asked R.D.

"Eh," he said, "I just do. And if not, we can make a boat or something. Shouldn't be too hard.

"And if we get attacked again?"

"Then I guess we kiss our asses goodbye, eh?"

R.D. saw Alasea's unamused stare and chuckled nervously.

"I'll take care of 'em," he reassured her, "Don't worry about it."

"You'd better."

After a few minutes of walking, the abandoned fishing village came in sight.

"We need to get out of here!" Hsien-Ko shouted out of the bridge window to her companions.

"One more pass!" Matt commanded, as he and Hugo kept the monsters busy with their own attacks.

===At Matt's island===

Many of the creatures continued attacking the boat, and their aim was improving. The blasts were hitting closer to the boat, some of them came dangerously close to hitting the two that were returning fire. But that wasn't all.

Some of the beasts started climbing down the cliff rapidly, their sharp claws easily making handholds in the rock. Then reached the water and dove in, then after surfacing, began swimming like dolphins towards the yacht.

===At R.D.'s island===

It took them another fifteen minutes to reach the village. While it was devoid of life like everywhere else he'd been, R.D. saw that it wasn't because of strange creatures or some battle. The people had simply moved on, leaving everything else in place. Including a boat.

It wasn't hard to get supplies for it, but because of Alasea's weakness, he had to do it alone. But after a while, everything was ready and the two set off into the ocean, back towards the mainland.

"Matt! We need to GO!" Hugo snapped.

"...fine." Matt looked toward the monsters in the water, and waved his hand. This silent gesture spurred waves of slicing wind to cut through the water at the beasts, overtaking them with powerful waves.

"Gun it!" Matt shouted, and the yacht sped off toward the mainland.

He settled down quietly onto the sand. Looking around, he noticed empty buildings, hold carts and stands. There were footprints in the sand. A small crate was overturned, as if someone sat on it. He walked slowly yet, with purpose. As he walked down the old dock, he looked down into the water, he saw that something had disturbed it. He stopped at the end of the dock, watching as the motorboat sped off into the distance.

"You can't run forever, Dragon."

===At sea===

"So, where are we gonna go after we get back?" Alasea asked R.D.

"Eh, I'm not sure," he replied, his brow furrowed, "I think I need to go back to where I used to live."

"... but you don't know where you used to live."

"Yeah," he sighed, "That's the problem."

"Now what's the plan?" Hugo asked Matt.

"Hell if I know..." Matt sat down on a bench on the deck. "Let's just get to the mainland, get our bearings together, and go search some more."

X spun around and saw Axel standing with folded arms.X summond out his keyblades and jumped backwards."Hey hey...I'm not here to fight...I'm here looking for my buddy Roxas,so where is he?"Axel asked.Roxas!X looked smug and said,"Hmph!U not need to that!"X grinned.Axel summond out his 2 look-like-a-so-called-beyblade and it had fire on it."Fine...If u don't tell me..you are so dead!Burn!"Axel yelled and both of his weapons was on fire up and flew striaght towards X.

"So how long is this gonna take?" Alasea asked.

"Not sure," R.D. replied, "The map we found isn't exactly the best. Matt had our good map, last I checked."

They sat in silence for several moments, the only sound being the motor of their boat. After a while, Alasea asked, "Do you have any idea where your home might be?"

"Kinda. Nothing really concrete," R.D. murmured, still looking around at the water for any conceivable threats, "I think... that'd I'd live a bit aways from people. And I'm kind of sure that it'd be around the area. The city and the woods between it and the port seemed familar."

"What do you expect to find there?" Alasea questioned further.

"Well... anything's possible. Maybe something that'll jumpstart my memory further," R.D. mused, "Maybe some stuff we could use. Clothing or armor."

Alasea looked out at the sea, "Hopefully we'll reach land soon."

"We're almost at land, guys," Hsien-Ko called to her companions on the deck.

"Good!" Matt shouted back. He currently had the dragon statue in his hands, studying it. What the hell was this thing? How could it come alive and help him in major times of need?

It took the two of them several more hours to cross the sea, but fortunately for them the trip was uneventful. They made land towards evening, and not by any nearby city that they knew of. The closest thing to them was a sparse forest, similar to the one near the port.

As R.D. stepped off the boat, he looked around at the nearby woods. It seemed... vaguely familar. He wondered how long it'd take to find his old home. He doubted he'd be able to ask another person for help... so far every place they'd been was abandoned by humans or filled with corpses.

"All right, here's the plan!" Matt commanded even as he walked down the gangplank of the stationary yacht. "Hugo, I want you to run a scan of R.D. and Alasea's lifesigns! Hsien-Ko, Mei-ling, if you find the truck we took last time, get it, but find us some car we can use or something!"

"R.D. blew up the truck," Hsien-Ko added with a raised finger.

"Whatever, just get us a car."

"What about you?" Mei-ling asked.

Matt's feet touched the concrete of the port itself. "I'm gonna run around and restock on stuff real quick. Whatever y'all do, stay in this general area, you understand?"

"I got it!" Hugo snapped. "Go on!"

The next morning, R.D. and Alasea made their way through the forest. Alasea had a vague recollection of the place, and wracked her memory for directions, and thus R.D. was content to just follow her.

It took them a while, but eventually they found their way to a freeway road. It showed signs of battle, but it wasn't like the damage that they'd seen in the city. They found a reasonably in-shape car, and after R.D. hotwired it, they made their way further inland. As they traveled, R.D. and Alasea saw just how much devastation had been caused by the growing war.

"What in God's name happened, anyway?" R.D. asked.

"I'm not sure," replied Alasea, "First there was news reports of strange occurances all over the world, and then there was this panic that the US was being invaded. No one took it seriously... and then... we started losing contact with states on the east coast. It's been a nightmare. And then... the dragon..." the girl trailed off, pale. R.D. respectfully cut off the conversation.
