Aqua looked to Eligius curiously, unsure what to make of that question... "Uh... Yes... I do... Why?" It was at that that she felt a substansial increase in darkness in the area nearby. "O-Oh my! Th-that power-!!" She felt herself shudder. The power she was feeling almost matched the power of that mysterious canine heartless she met in the Realm of Darkness before she encountered that mysterious man...
It didn't take long for FP to quickly pick up on what Eligius and Aqua was feeling either.
CRACK-OW!!!!! A barrage of lightning strikes struck down on the town itself as a HUGE creature, bigger then any of the homes in the town appeared letting out a gutteral roar which seemed to cause the skies themselves to cloud over. The creature was huge, with a quadroped-like body shape, huge horns on either side of it's mouth, and a giant horn on it's forehead. Despite that however, the creature looked somewhat rounded and simplistic....
.................................
".... UH...." FP looked a bit intimidated.
"O-Oh my god..." And so was Aqua.

Eligius, on the other hand, was just out-and-out freaked out. "H-Holy shit! A... A... BEHEMOTH!" He switched Keyblades, Phrygian Mode appearing in his hand. "I asked because I have a spell that requires me to be revived after I use it. Just needed to make sure it was an option." He grit his teeth.
He stared down the Behemoth, his Scholar's Insight working to try and analyze it... though his doing so made the Behemoth target him; it charged at him and he had to use Flowmotion to keep ahead of it. "Your Majesty! Master Aqua! Aim for its horn! That's its weak point! GYAH!" While he shouted to them, the Behemoth caught up with him and swatted him to the side with a toss of its head; the Keyblade Knight slammed into a nearby building's wall.

The two females WINCED when they saw that. "OUCHIES.... THAT HAD TO HURT." FP said amidst her wince. Aqua nodded before turning to where Eligius had been sent flying. "Hope he's okay..."
"After a hit like that, I better go check on him." Aqua looked at the giant creature. "You're majesty, you can move very fast. Do you think you can distract this creature for a few seconds so I can check on Eligius?" FP smiled and gave Aqua a thumbs up.
"Leave it to me! Just don't take too long!"
And with that, FP jetted off towards the beast, circling around the Behemoth's feet with a trail of flames, surprising the beast somewhat. Seeing her chance she climbed up the Beast's back leg and up it's back. "HAH!!!!" She then blasted a jet of flames at the horn-
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
It didn't seem to like that too much and tried to shake FP off, but she held on zealously.
With Aqua, she rushed to the building where Eligius was, quickly entering before finding a nearby staircase to climb. "Huff-huff-! Eligius!!! Eligius!!!" She called as she climbed up steps as quickly as she could, her armored boots clanking against the stairs as she climbed. Eventually she found a room that had a huge gaping hole in the wall.
After a few seconds of looking, she quickly found Eligius...

The young man was barely conscious. "M-Master Aqua... nngh..." He slowly tried to stand up. "C...Cura..." A green light enveloped him and he stood up fully, though shaky. "That thing is powerful... A strong enough hit to the horn should stun it for a while..."

"A powerful blow will stun it?! Then how are we supposed to get rid of it?? If we let this thing wander around, the entire island is going to be in jeopardy!" Aqua was quite panicked. This heartless' defenses were pretty sturdy from what she could tell. And FP's attacks to it, melting it's horn, was making it more mad with each passing second.
FP let out screams as she held on for dear life. "HEEEEEELLLLP!!!!!!"
Aqua looked to Eligius. "Have you fought one of these before?? I've fought a giant heartless myself, but that one was powerful and fast. This one is a walking mountain! We need a plan!"

"Nngh... I've never fought one of these before but I think if we stun it, we'll be free to whale on it's horn for a while; that's its weak point." He took a few deep breaths. "If nothing else, Thousand Needles should be able to pierce its defenses as well. I'll go attack for a bit. Can you charge up Megaflare again?"
He jumped out of the hole, using Flowmotion to make his way to the Behemoth; he spun around on a nearby lamp post before using a Buzz Saw attack on its horn, the giant Heartless giving noises of pain.

Aqua quickly nodded at this. "O-Okay, understood!"
When Eligius came to FP's rescue, she had quickly let go of the horn and was sent flying down the street. She was spared however thanks to the confetti that lttered the ground. With each thud, the confetti she landed on lit on fire instantly, cushioning her landing. By the time she finally stopped, she had lit a good amount of the streets aflame and she was quickly getting back up, absorbing the flames from the confetti. "I'm okay!!"
"HAAAAAH!!!!!" Aqua jumped down from the hole in the building, using the windows as handholds, before reaching the ground. "Ready anytime Eligius!! Just give me the word!"
"RAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!" At that moment, FP came roaring in flying in and aiming straight for the Behemoth. "HERE I COOOOME!!!!!!"

"Now! Thousand Needles!" He thrust a hand outward, launching the needles into the Behemoth's skin, using up almost all of his MP left; he was knocked away as well, looking pretty beaten up.

"I GOT IT I GOT IT!!! TRY THIS FREAK!!!!" The Behemoth was more then pissed that it's horn was so thoroughly weakened by that annoying mage's attacks that it didn't see FP circle around climb up it's back and then turned into a flaming projectile....
BAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!!! The behemoth let out a loud pained howl as FP DRILLED into the horn, making the beast lumber forward clumsily and dazedly, flopping onto it's stomache as it tried to recover. With FP, she shot off the Behemoth and landed next to Aqua. "YEAH!"
Aqua was quick to look to the princess. "Go and check on Eligius!! I'll handle things from here!!" FP let out a little whine before she rushed off to do just that. The princess knew better then to question Aqua...
But still, what happened next was going to be AWESOME!
The look of focus and contempt was great on the Keybladers face as she shuffled through her spells, ready to use every single one. She was going to shake the island itself if that was what it was going to take.
"STOPGA!!!"
The behemoth froze in place.
"TRIPLE BLIZZAGA!! FISSION FIRAGA!!! TRIPLE FIRAGA!!! GLACIER!!! FIRAGA BURST!!!!"
She let off spell after spell, never once letting up, all of them trained on the Behemoth's horn and face. It was like the master said, sometimes the most obvious weakness is one's eye. All of the attacks doing a great amount of damage. Firaga Burst continued firing out a great amount of magical flames, blasting the downed Behemoth repeatedly. "RAGING STORM!!!!" At that word, three HUGE pillars of fire erupted around Aqua and she slammed into the Behemoth's face continually racking up the damage.
----------------------------------------------------------
[I'm going to be having Aqua use 'Ars Praecantatio' to finish off the Behemoth. So here's a good lead in to get Eligius back in.]
As all of this went on, FP zoomed through the city and quickly found a downed Eligius on the ground. "Oh boy.... M-Mr. Eligius! Are you okay? Come on get up!"

The Keyblade Knight was conscious but in pretty bad shape. He didn't even have the MP left to cast Cure, so he stabbed his Keyblade into the ground, attempting to use it as a brace to help him get up.
"Nngh... Your Majesty... are you alright?"
He was breathing heavily, looking pretty beaten up; he kept himself upright using his Keyblade.

FP winced at the poor shape Eligius was in, but motioned to where Aqua was. "No worries though! Looks like Miss Aqua is going to handle the giant monster!"
When Eligius looked, he found that FP KNEW what she was talking about.
"STOPGA!!!" When it looked like the Behemoth was going to move again, Aqua refreshed the Stop spell and kept right on going, releasing spell after spell with ferocious abandon. She could feel the beast growing weaker, she just needed to finish this before it could find some way to turn this all around.
It came to her.
Eraqus' keyblade glowed brightly in her hand as she prepared herself. "ARS......."
She jumped.
"PRAECANTATIO!!!!"
The Behemoth never had a chance. She showered the horn with powerful swipes of the keyblade which was powered by several magical elements. With each swipe other smaller blades made of several elements appeared, homed in, and stabbed the monster's horn without mercy, as Aqua continued her onslaught. A water slice canceled out electricity, an earth slice smashed into the horn with the force of mother Gaia, a Fire slice almost scorched the horn to ashes, and the ferocious combo just continued on and on...
Until...
"Haaaaaaaaa-AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!" Aqua lifted up, keyblade reeled back over her head, magical elements of all kinds focusing in on the keyblade....
BAAAAAAAAAAM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Before she slammed it into the Behemoth's horn....
The Stopga spell dissipated....
Only for the Behemoth's horn to crack and disintegrate from the sheer force of the barrage it suffered through.
"Wooooow." Yep, the fire princess was VERY impressed.

Eligius' eyes were widened and his mouth was gaping as the behemoth dissipated completely, a large heart flying away. He looked at Aqua, still wideyed. 'Holy shit, I think I'm in love...'
"T-That... was amazing... what was that technique you used at the end? I've... I've never seen anything like that... you wrecked that thing like it was nothing! ...Oh! That probably took a lot of magic power... here..."
Eligius trusted Aqua to revive him, so... "Transfusion!" He took his Keyblade and sliced his left hand with it, a magic aura infusing his blood, which dripped down, the magic going and revitalizing Aqua fully, both vitality and Magic power. As that happened, Eligius collapsed, as was the norm when he used that spell.

Aqua let out a lot of huffs and pants as she tried to catch her second wind, however, her body was just EXHAUSTED by this point. She was barely standing really. "Puh-please, th-that was n-nothing..." She said as she wobbled and quickly caught a nearby street lamp to remain upright.
Maybe it was that sign that provoked Eligius into using Transfusion...
Either way, when the spell was finished, Aqua easily found her second wind, and her body was no longer aching from exhaustion. In fact she felt as if she was ready to take on the Heartless army once more. "I... Wow... Thank you Eligius, that was-"
'Thud'
"Aqua!! Miss Aqua!!"
Aqua quickly turned to find Eligius passed out on the ground. In an instant, the keyblader rushed over to check up on him, while FP herself was in a panic. "Wh-what just happened?? He just used that sp-spell and then he passed out!!"
Where the fire princess was freaking out though, Aqua was calmly and carefully looking over Eligius' form. Hmmm, looked like he was just unconscious. Though the blood leaking from his hand was a worry.
Better worry about that first. "Cura." The healing on the hand didn't need much, and the Cura was successful in fully healing the cut. However, the scar itself remained. Nothing could get rid of scars after all, not even healing spells. With a deep breath, she looked to the peacefully sleeping Eligius... Aqua smiled a bit, nodding in approval.
"A brave young man to be sure... Almost reminds me of Ven in a way."
Flame Princess looked to Aqua quizzically as she said this, before noting the woman holding her keyblade over Eligius. "... Raise."
There was a bright flash as a column of light streamed down from the heavens and engulfed Eligius... When it dissipated-

Eligius jumped back up to his feet, looking a little better than he'd been when he used the spell. He smiled slightly. "Thank you, Master Aqua. You look better; I'm glad the spell worked. Sorry if I made you worry... Transfusion is another Blue spell... I basically sacrifice all my non-vital non-magic energy to fully restore someone." He looked down at the scar on his hand... "Mmm... a use of Vampire on something should fix that right up... this isn't the first time I've used Transfusion." He thought to himself for a bit; despite how low his magic power was, he thought he had enough MP to cast an Osmose spell... so if he didn't get a chance to rest and restore that he'd need to keep that in mind.
"Still... what was that technique you used at the end, Master Aqua? Ars... something? That was incredible!"
Now that he thought about it, the Keyblade Knight remembered watching his Master and his Master's brother spar once... What did they call their techniques? Ars... Solarum? Ars Nocticum? Something like that...
He turned to FP. "Also... are you alright, Your Majesty?"

Aqua let out a sigh when Eligius, rather enthusiastically really, hopped up, thanking her for helping him up. Before she could ask however, the man apologized and gave her a quick rundown on what 'Transfusion' supposedly did. "I see.... Well... I'm glad to know that you're okay regardless." Honestly Aqua could live with Eligius having a scar, so long as he was still alive and healthy-
Oh?
"Oh! Th-that attack?" She thought a moment, wondering whether or not she should tell him. After a moment she let out a sigh; supposed it was too late now. "That attack was one of my specialty attacks called Ars Praecantatio. It's a powerful keyblade flurry attack that rivals the attacks in the Shotlock move counters." She shrugged. "I happened to discover that move on my own during my own adventures in the Realm of Darkness. I can't begin to count how many times that move has saved my life."
Aqua noted that Eligius looked to FP to check on her. The princess blushed but confirmed all was well with her. "Don't worry, sir Eligius. I am okay. Managed to get out of that unharmed thanks to you two!"
