As Tera finished her quick scan she closed her eyes. Inside her head, her brain archived what she'd seen and processed as hard data, similar to recording a video onto a memory card. [indent]>run catalogue.exe >archiving data...5% >...15% >...46% >...64% >...87% >...100% >data archived [/indent] The process took only a second or two and her eyes shot back open as her companions fought the monsters. Suddenly the huge armoured thing began dissolving, even as her companions destroyed the smaller cannon things behind it. As she watched hearts slowly rise into the sky, the huge monster broke down, its parts dissolving into darkness. From the smoke appeared a large heart, surrounded by smoke and pierced by thorns. Leon fought it to no effect, but the mysterious, dark voice bade them to give in to the darkness? She'd seen firsthand the effects of that dark force when her world was devoured by it. And she would not let that control her, much less use it for her own ends. "Accept the darkness..." Tera gripped her Keyblade tighter. "No. Never in a thousand cycles. I saw my world die by the darkness. I won't let it control me." She nodded and walked forward to where her companions were. She passed Nero, but heard him muttering, doubting the Light. Tera stopped. "Listen, uh, sir. Put it behind you. These keyblades were given to us by the light. If it attracts darkness then so be it. We just have to fight it every step of the way." That said she joined Markus, Asha and Fion, standing by their sides as she too raised her key up at the shrouded heart. A beam of light burst forth from its tip and shot straight towards the heart. As she held her key steady, she saw Akira join the lineup, and the cute moogle Nii leaped onto the hand to give it a deserving beatdown. Perhaps they could save this child's life after all.
