[img=http://oi61.tinypic.com/6xq8hj.jpg] Amano: And the building was very empty...almost like a ruin... [img=http://oi59.tinypic.com/8wzb0m.jpg] Amano: I don't know if it's a coincidence but...maybe those things are behind it... As soon as Amano mentioned the heartless, many more appeared.

Abenstein, seeking for his heart, he effortlessly dispatched the group with a single slash. [img=http://oi61.tinypic.com/6xq8hj.jpg] Amano: Ah... [img=http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img543/6043/fotu.png] Ash: Don't need to worry about me. [img=http://oi57.tinypic.com/300ywew.jpg] Amano: ... Ash: Hmph! In a blink, Ash took care of the remaining ones, then he looked at Amano. [img=http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img9/628/82y.png] Ash: Do you know where i am?

Ash: Besides...I work alone. [img=http://oi58.tinypic.com/2emdagz.jpg] Amano: Bummer... [img=http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img824/9070/30w4.png] Ash: Till we meet again... And then, the Lonely Young Knight left the place, Amano couldn't help but worry about, wondering if the place he came from was overtook by the heartless, while it was possible, [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tEBCp64qOY]the answer is no.[/url] What really happened is that Ash was caught in a spatial distortion and ended up in the Isolation City.

[b]HERE I COME![/b] Jasper, in what would be a rare moment of his, pulled his sword, and then, it grew big in size, three time tall as he is, while it seems a bit umpratical, Jasper trained very hard to handle a sword of that size, so in this case, size don't really matter when you know how to handle it, being able to Dash with the speed of the flying clouds. ((Go figure, it something Sanger says in PxZ)) Jasper: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YiNtp4TwlcI&feature=youtu.be&t=1m52s]Final Attack! Zankantou Ichimonji-Giri[/url] ((Diferent from Wodan's Version)) With a might battlecry, he slashed the beast in half, and the sheer air pressure the sword made with the ground knocked the other ones away, destroying the small buildings they hit.

[img=http://imagizer.imageshack.us/a/img89/6307/pbp9.png] Barry: Everyone, split up and take a monster to kill, we can't slack off and leave this to Jasper!

Quit using the cheap-ass ammo! [img=http://oi62.tinypic.com/10ht09j.jpg] Reiji: Hey, unlike a certain someone, i'm ahead of the game. Already loaded the Anti-Spirit rounds. [img=http://oi62.tinypic.com/117a5as.jpg] Reiji: And what's this... weird feeling like they're not really here? Are they some new breed the Quake spawned?! [img=http://oi60.tinypic.com/11tpx1g.jpg] Reiji: And if we can't touch 'em, what can we do? [img=http://imageshack.us/a/img15/4089/1p0p.png] Xiaomu: Lemme point out that they're still leaving nice big footprints in the pavement.

[img=http://oi62.tinypic.com/10ht09j.jpg] Reiji: Shut up. You're walking a bit slow. Xiaomu: Did it cross your mind that i'd stop walking that way if I could? [img=http://oi59.tinypic.com/9rhopk.jpg] Reiji: What?! Don't tell me there's another Quake?! Another quake happens right behind Reiji and Xiaomu, once it stopped, it revealed three mysterious people.

You mean that blue haired girl?
