Would Ventus and Vanitas be able to interact with the others, or all of this simply a nightmare that each person has to come to their own terms with?

"Tch..even in the afterlife you won't go down without a fight. That's just like you, Chrom...just what is it you all want from me, hm? My death will result in nothing for you..." Michael states, his demeanor now quite different from how it once was, even getting into a more defensive form of fighting, aiming to simply disarm his enemies and knock them down.
Sensing this feeling of being gnawed on, Vanitas becomes slightly distracted, his attacks not as forceful as they originally were planned out to be. "So tell me, just how did I end up here of all places? I imagined fighting you in front of your friends and humiliating you." He inquires.
Noticing that his opponent was holding back, Ven quickly took advantage and utilized his next blow to knock Vanitas back a fair distance, allowing them both some breathing room as he decided to answer his question. "This woman, Jessica, drew you here. I don't know why, but I guess she believes that all of us fighting will set her free somehow.." He responds.
"Really now? Man, I despise you, but I despise being someone's pawn even more.." He takes this moment to look up towards where Jessica currently is, glaring at her from underneath his helm.

Michael grins as he draws his own sword, seeing nothing but enemies in his path. "For Risen, you sure do talk a lot! I'll make this quick!" With that being said, the tactician charges, utilizing his sword with fatal accuracy, meeting their rage with his own dragon-stemmed wrath.
"Well now, isn't this interesting? I suppose what you did long ago DID have a positive outcome. It has made me even stronger! Go ahead, get angry. I'll take all of the power I can get!" Vanitas remarks as a dark aura rolls off of his body, Ventus' negative emotions giving him a pretty good advantage. Without hesitating, he runs toward his lifetime rival, attacking at a speed that would be rather difficult to counter.
"Taunt me all you want! I'll finish what I started this time!" Ventus responds, their blades clashing already. Sparks fly, the blows rather intense. This is no doubt the beginning to a very heated battle.

Opening his eyes to the vivid horrors before him, Michael simply smirks. "Jessica, I simply think it would be better if we discussed your terms than have you waste your time with these mindgames." he remarks, keeping a cool head about all of this. Showing weakness now could spell the end for him.
Unlike his tactician friend, Ven is having a hard time grasping the current situation. "There's no way you're back...when I was brought back, you no longer existed!" He claims in disbelief, clutching the hilt of his blade tightly. Hearing this fallen part of him laugh made him angry.
Vanitas was back alright; and he felt better than ever, laughing to his heart's content. "Sorry Ventus, but it seems all of your hard work didn't pay off. This whole time, I've simply lurking in the shadows, waiting for the right moment to strike. It appears that time has finally come!" He quickly summons his own Keyblade, more prepared than he's ever been for a fight.

"Well well, this day just keeps getting more interesting. Wouldn't you agree?" Michael inquires aloud as he removes his hood, closing his eyes and getting into a defensive stance, ready to make use of his ties with a certain dragon if need be.
"Yup! I just hope we can talk this out for once though..." Ven responds, not very eager to start a fight, but summons his Keyblade nonetheless, preparing for the possible battle to come.

Having done nothing but stand there for only God knows how long, the two soldiers quickly snap back to reality at hearing that familiar name.

"Well...guess you were right about one thing, Ven." Michael admits, deciding to vent this slight twinge of anger by breaking the remaining boards off of the window so he can climb through and follow the surviving child.
"I hope the streak doesn't stop there!" Ven responds, following suit. This kid was the best lead they had at the moment. It would be even better if he were alive. However, beggars can't be choosers. For the moment, all they could was follow the echo of the child's soul and what he did during his last moments in the land of the living.

Ven's usually good mood is only slightly dulled by this sudden feeling of anger. For Michael, he simply feels annoyed over the fact that this wave of negative emotions is making it hard to concentrate. The two search around what remains of the house for any other clues as to what could have happened. The tactician's first guess was a barrage of fireballs or perhaps ammo from a trebuchet that was lit on fire. Ven believed this wreckage might've been brought down by a dragon or an angry spirit. The possibilities to them were endless.

Hehe, you were probably expecting someone else to respond, but consider me an unofficial co-GM of this RP. The GM herself is currently restarting her computer, so I'm filling in for her in the meantime. ^^

"Hey, you feel that? I think a new adventure is calling our names!" Ventus remarks as he hops down from a tree branch he'd been resting on earlier. "That, or a trap. Either way, I suppose this is worth investigating. We better practice extreme caution.." Michael responds, pulling on his hood as he opens up a Corridor of Darkness that would lead them both to the outer limits of the area in question. "I have a feeling that someone will have already beat us there, as usual." Ven comments before entering the Corridor. "You might be right...only one way to find out." Michael states before entering himself, the Corridor closing behind them and reopening what only feels like minutes later.
