Where are you Going? (Open)

This wasn't how anything was supposed to go as planned. Nothing at all could have matched up to what had been happening on not just this world, but many others out there. The death and destruction was nice, but this wasn't her handy work, nor the work of her teacher. She knew what it was causing all of the Heartless to run amok. It had an annoying influence that had attempted several passes at her own mind and independence, however, Holly was far too fortified mentally for that. There was something she needed done, which is why there was this Holly here and then the many others of her spread to the worlds afflicted with Heartless. She will observe, learn and figure out who is worth their salt in this universe.

Her yellow eyes extended to the darkening sky, rain was likely going to fall? She hadn't felt the rain on her skin in so long, ever since she grew weaker and couldn't handle much of the elements any longer, the woman retreated behind barriers, servants, plus other methods of shielding herself. Maybe today would have been her day to thoroughly enjoy the world for what it was worth... Too bad it was worthless to begin with, the enjoyment she'd have only momentary and not everlasting. Nothing ever lasted forever in this universe anyways, but while she was still alive, she'd bring about the ruin of lives and worlds on her own terms. No one would take that honor from her.

Once again, that was why she was here. She stayed away from the large battlefields taking place. Stationing herself on a route that lead to those battles, Holly sat upon a patch of overgrowth she created herself and flipped through the pages of a book. Her slender frame was hugged by the vegetation she grew, with she herself appearing quite exotic for an ancient world such as that. A light grimace was on her features, for she hated the thing responsible for all this...

In contrast to the only other heartless not participating in the carnage, Kadasha was mad for another reason. Nobody told her about this attack! Not even a memo, not even a tap on the shoulder asking if she were going, invited or not, and what was worse was that it seemed this attack was planned ahead of time, and wasn't just a spur of the moment decision. And that aggravated her to no end. Why did they get all the fun? Why wasn't she invited? Surely her master would have known about it, since some of his other servants joined in as well, so why didn't they even tell her about it?

Down below, she could see the tiny Shadows destroying everything and looking like they were having so much fun doing it too. Why were those weaklings there, and not her? She could take fifty, no a thousand of them on without breaking a sweat, and they were just... just---

She just wanted to bring out her bow and just put an end to those weaklings. But after a deep breath, she thought that it wasn't worth it. But then again, she did want to try something out... With a mischievous chuckle, she drew her bow. The arrow loaded onto it had a twisted tip with a hollow center where a reddish light glowed faintly. After choosing her aim, she let it fly at the speed of a bullet. It landed around a clump of lesser heartless and exploded on impact. It was a considerable explosion of darkness, and she couldn't help but laugh excitedly that it worked. "Perfect! I should use those more often."

There was another presence that had showed up in the world, a dark one that was eerily familiar. Familiar due to its weakness and ability to grow, much like the rest of the others down there, yet still very weak. Holly's interest had been peaked considerably to which she decided that she'd home in on this little signal of darkness. Where she was going the energy had stood out in the sense that, it was unique among all the little bits of darkness that littered the world. Holly's body faded into the dark much like how it appeared...

Only to pop up behind the pig-tailed, red-eyed girl, who fired off her projectiles toward their own brethren. Naturally, the silver-haired Heartless Witch would have chastised that action but something about the entire situation had her doubt those below. They worked with another agent who played the game of heart hunting, albeit on their own terms, and were becoming quite a bit of a nuisance. Holly wanted the girl to keep firing upon the shades below, so she could see their reaction in response to her assault. Then and only then, would she believe that "it" had something to do with all of this. "Yes, continue to use more of it. Practice your aim, since you seem to be off a bit."

Holly commented, before she came up behind the girl. Both of her hands had angled and fixed the young woman's stance, plus her aim. "Now fire." She'd instruct with a smile.

She watched the lesser heartless scramble to make sense of the explosion, unbeknown to them that the perpetrator was just outside the city, appreciating her own handiwork. She loaded up another arrow and looked around for another cluster to rain terror upon. But instead, she almost dropped her explosive arrow as someone suddenly spoke from behind her. Kadasha stiffened for she feared her master had sent someone to chastise her for her actions. But this presence wasn't like his...

Before she knew it, the other person took her arms and positioned them herself in order to "fix" her stance, and even had the audacity to order her to fire. As if! The heartless broke free of the grip and turned to face the pale-faced heartless woman who so rudely interrupted her playtime. "What do you think you're doing?!" she asked angrily. "Did I ever ask for your help?!"

Now that was something she hadn't expected from the young lady. A raised eyebrow had her questioning if it was a good idea to even let that thing continue living, after the outburst she just had. Amused at the same time, Holly had raised a hand up and started to form an energy ball of pure destruction, it seemingly intended to crash right into the face of the young Heartless in front of her. Before that happened, however, the silver-haired woman had moved her hand off to the side of the lesser beings and fired it off. The ball of energy shot off with an amazing speed and had instantly collided with a group, before it detonated and exploded. Heartless were displaced, knocked into the air and incinerated (those closest to the blast). "I wanted to come and play too. Thought you needed a bit of help with it." Holly smiled, trying the more kiddish approach to it.

"What's your name, young one? Mine is Holly and from what I can tell, you don't seem to have much regard for those who are akin to us. You know, the ones who are down there, giving their measly existence to capture the hearts of those pathetic warriors."

Kadasha twitched when she thought she was suddenly being attacked, but the other woman diverted the ball of darkness when it was mere inches away from her face. She was taken by surprise by the amount of power behind that ball, as shown by the tremendous explosion upon impact. The young heartless wouldn't lie, she envied that kind of power, but that didn't mean she was going to get all buddy-buddy with the other woman. She didn't like her. She didn't like the way she stood there, feeling all powerful. And she especially didn't like that feeling of superiority coming from her.

So once she got over the shock of being nearly disintegrated, her face reverted to a frown directly aimed at the woman. "Well if you must know, Holly, my name is Kadasha, and you're right. I don't care for those of them down there, and I most certainly don't care for you either. So enjoy flaunting your massive amount of power, because soon, I'll rise up to trump yours, and every other hotshot heartless out there!"

"You're an interesting little thing, aren't you...?" The Heartless Necromancer asked aloud, before she turned her eyes over to the battlefield of their brethren. "You want to rise up and trump my power, yet you're like a bigger version of the Shadows down there." Holly said sharply, a smirk on her lips. Those eyes of hers had traveled to the corner of their sockets, gazing over her shoulder towards Kadasha. "Your one saving grace, is that you're intelligent enough to NOT be like those below. That's why I came to you. I want you to rise in power, truly I do, but... I don't think you have the ability to learn and grow. Not even on your own."

There was a sigh of feigned disappointment, as she shrugged. The woman turned her back to Kadasha and started walking off. "Whenever your method of surviving stops working, come find me. You know where I'll be." She said in reference to the Realm of Darkness, but in actuality, for the time being she'd be in her original spot. Besides that child that she just encountered, there may have been others to gauge and test.

She just scoffed at the notion of being on the level of those pipsqueak shadows. What a demeaning thing to say to a future ruler of the Heartless! But fine, she can talk like that all she wants. She'll show her. She'll show them all how powerful she can be. Then she, and everyone else who thought she would amount to nothing would eat those words. She'll make sure of it.

Holly, as far as the young heartless could tell, was offering her help in her rise to power, which was an offer she didn't plan on buying. She's only saying that, then turn on her when her power starts to threaten her... Yes, that is how it is for those in power. Kadasha wasn't falling for any of that.

The woman told her to look for her when her "method of survival" stops working, then disappeared as if to look like a mysterious mentor who would supposedly lead her down a path. To that, Kadasha simply chuckled and turned her attention back to the chaos. "It's not just about survival..." She looked around to make sure no one was there before taking a faded pendant out from underneath her clothing. "It's about finding, and patching out the ways you die, no matter how many times it may take. Isn't that right, master?"

She put the pendant away and drew her bow again, spotting much bigger prey a little deeper into the city. "I'll show them all!" One after another, she let the arrows fly, hitting clusters of heartless until either she got bored, one of her 'colleagues' showed up to reprimand her or those other heartless decided to come to her for a heavy kiss from Booper.
