*miquelet's physical body was cold to the touch... it would almost seems as if it was dead, but this wasn't so... within her mind, miquelet's spirit could barely sense a familiar presence outside... outside of the darkness, outside of her mind, within her room, where her body lay still, not asleep, but seperated from her spirit... she poured a huge amount of her energy into a desperate attempt to reach Sora... even if he was looking, he wouldn't actually see anything... but a thin energy cord emitted itself from her forehead, like a lifeline or a safety rope... it reached towards him, and finally touched his palm... once it did, Sora would sense what appeared to be a doorway of some kind... if he were to try to pass through it, his spirit would enter miquelet's mind, where she, the light spirit and the darkness were still battling...*
*this last act drained miquelet deeply, and she felt the effects of the darkness' touch even stronger than before... her eyes started to dim, and she hoped that she woluld make it through this alright...*

Sora noticed a faint tingling in his hand. He looked at it awkwardly, than nodded, talking to himself, as the image of a doorway appeared within not the room, but within his mind. Focusing deeply, he created what seemed a mind avatar of himself. He felt a presense through his whole body, as if two entities behind it, clashing. He placed his hand on the door, cold as ice to the touch, as he pushed it open, entering into her mind.

*after Sora steps through the 'doorway', he can see the room of the mind where miquelet and the two spirits are currently... it is a large, bland looking room, with several shards of memory lying broken on the floor... the light spirit is watching the others intently, and doesn't appear to notice Sora... the darkness is trying to engulf miquelet in a deluge of it's own matter, and miquelet is trying vainly to escape it's clutches... she appears to be failing, however, as even from across the room, it is obvious the darkness is slowly winning... she doesn't even seem to have the strength left to notice Sora arriving, as an unseen doorway opened in blank space...*

Sora enters, noticing Miquelet being devoured by the darkness. He runs out about 4 steps, than the door closed shut, with even a gap in the doors as they fades back into the room. He than looks up, a burst of light just remaining there, motionless as if observing the absorbtion. He stood there, not understanding the situation. As he stood there, the words of Orb hit his mind.
...Don't think... Just act.....
With these words in his head, he rushs at full speed to Miquelet, thinking of nothing else but her safety, shouting. "Miquelet!"

*miquelet's head was just about to sink into the dark mass, when she managed to hear Sora's shout... this spurred her into a moment of action, as she opened her eyes, and looked around until she saw him, running towards her... she struggled stronger than she had before, and managed to extricate herself slightly... the darkness still had a good grasp on her, though, and it wasn't about to stop now... it noticed Sora's appearance, but didn't realize he was a threat, so it ignored him, at least for the moment... the light elemental turned and stared impassively at Sora, waiting to see what will happen...* Sora...? is that... you...?

"Hold on! I'm coming!" he shouted to her, seeing new life somehow coming into her body. Sora was slowly becoming aware of the unknown entities attention. But the only thing in his mind was Miquelets saftey. He pushed himself harder to reach her. As he approched her, he took more notice to the Darknesses mass and size, as he come within about 20 feet of Miquelet.

*seeing another get closer than it would prefer, the darkness launched a flurry of inky black tendrils at Sora... they are travelling rather fast, but not terribly so, as the darkness was just testing him... once it's attention became diverted, miquelet squirmed more, trying to get closer to Sora, at least to reach a hand towards him... this was futile, however, as the darkness was still too strong, and it had already sapped much of her strength...*

Sora smirked at the attack, as he thrusts his weight down on he left knee, going into a natural roll. One of the tendrils knocked him in the shoulder, but merely threw him off balance in the roll, and jumped back up. Sora stretched his hand out, within now 7 feet, the mass of the darkness looming over him.
Almost...there....!

*miquelet saw Sora's hand get closer, and strained to inch closer to it... slowly, so very slowly, she extricated herself from the darkness, which grudgingly gave ground millimeter by millimeter... her hand got a foot closer to Sora's, and stopped... she was reaching over as far as she could right now, if she went any farther, she'd overbalance and fall deeper into the creature's mass...*
*the darkness saw the two approach each other, and knew somehow that it should prevent that... it tried to pull miquelet back, but she managed to stay at about the same point at which she was... seeing it's plan not working, it started to recoalesce it's body back together, the tendrils and liquid mass slowly coming back together to create a more solid form, one akin to an emaciated insect, or perhaps an odd gargoyle... it held miquelet in one grossly oversized claw, and got ready to pull her back... it lashed out it's other claw at Sora, sending a rapid backhand strike aimed directly towards him...*

Sora watches the gruesome transfiguration, as he watched it pick Miquelet up in its hand. His mind and eyes focused on Miquelet, the backlash on him was no obvious to him. The hand dealt a great blow, but knock him back more than really hurting. The attack sent him about 20 feet back, as he flipped back up onto his feet. He shook his head off of the small dizziness, and began charging towards the creature of darkness once again, along with Miquelet.
Note to self: Watch out for sneak attacks, he said to himself.

*seeing Sora knocked back, the creature seemed to enjoy itself, gloating in what it assumed was already a victory... it leisurely prepared to try to crush miquelet like an egg, as she tried to pry one of it's hooked talons away from her... the palm of it's hand was over her face, so she couldn't see what had happened to Sora... as it started squeezing her, she knew something must have happened, though...* Sora...? Sora, are you alright...? Sora...?

Sora smirked as he flashed forward, right at its "feet", at speeds that would generally be about the blink of an eye, and flashed up to what would be the creatures face, and than over to its claw with Miquelet. He began to pry open the finger, as he managed to get a small peek at her face. He smiled lightly and nodded.
"I'm just fine, love." he said, pulling the finger ((no pun intended xd )) out along with her.

*as they both struggled to move the darkness' talon, it slowly gave way, allowing miquelet to slip free of it's grasp... she twisted free of it's grasp, and fell to the ground, landing on one foot and the other knee... she looked up at Sora, still on the creature's arm, and a smile broke over her face... this was the first chance that she could really see him, ever since this ordeal first began, such a while ago... this filled her with an extra amount of determination, and she knew that now was the time... with sora here, with his assistance, she couldn't afford to lose... there would be no second chances with this... she would either triumph, or she wouldn't... she dashed past the creature, to the other side of the room, and grabbed her staff from the floor, where it had been knocked some time earlier... she went into an attack posture, and called up to Sora...* are you ready...? let's do this together...
*even as all this happened, the darkness grew angry, now that it's prize had escaped... it began to enlarge itself, as it's form rippled through the entire animal kingdom, and some creatures that were only pictured in nightmares... it whipped it's arm, trying to throw Sora off, furious at him for interfering...*

Sora remained on its arm, holding onto it for dear life. He focused his thoughts hard on synthesizing a weapon of some sort, as a keyblade-like sword materialized into his hand. He quickly held the sword downwards and stabbed it into the immense and massive arm of the creature. He smiled and looked down. He pulled it out and let the natural throw of the darkness' swing throw him over to Miquelet's side. He landed on a knee and got up, getting into his attack position, as he looked over to Miquelet. He gave a small wink and smiled.
"I'm ready whenever you are... And I hope you have a plan because I'm fresh out of ideas..." he said, with a small depressing tone at the end.

*Sora's keyblade struck true, stabbing deeply into the odd flesh of the darkness... it drew no blood, however... it just made that section go extremely pale for a moment, until color, or, rather, uncoloir bled back into it from the undamaged portions of it's arm... the darkness whirled to face Sora and miquelet, and advanced steadily, as it's form continued shifting...* yes, I have one idea... since this is a realm of the mind, we are not constrained by normal physical limits... ourselves, and more importantly, our weapons, can do much more than cut... *as if to illustrate her point, miquelet closed her eyes, and her staff grew in size, until it was almost double it's original size... it didn't appear any heavier, though... as a matter of fact, it seemed almost lighter. like it weighed the same as it did, but the weight was stretched thin over the entire size...* if we both focus enough, our weapons can grow large enough to do it enough damage that it can't regenerate all of it... that will give us the chance we need...*
