The volley struck Raez, casting a large cloud of dust around him. Before the cloud of particles settled, the sound of a snap could be heard. Flaming energy began to swirl into an orb all around the arena. The orbs grew until one eventually erupted, destroying part of the stage with it. Almost like a chain reaction, the others began to explode as well.

Zack tried his best to avoid the explosions, but he eventually got hit by one. He got propelled backwards until he finally hit the ground. Slowly he got back up.

"Give up, Keyblade Wielder. I'm not here to kill you." urged Raez. Although he didn't like Light Realmers, it wasn't his job to kill Zack, at least not for today.

"I'm...not...giving up...just yet." Zack said right before he collapsed from utter exhaustion.

"You're exhausted. You're fighting an opponent you can't defeat and you can barely stand." stated the Heartless. "Throw away the match, or throw away your life." He readied his Burning Rage, preparing for the kill blow.

"...Ok fine. You're right... I'm done..." Zack said. He got up and walked off the broken stage. Apparently didn't train enough... Zack thought to himself. Maybe I'll go watch the championship round and see how Raez does.

Raez desummoned his claymore then left to go to the final battle. His mission was almost complete. He entered the final arena, Hercules was standing opposite of him.
"Good job of making it this far." congratulated the god.
"Thank you, now, there's just one thing I need from you."
"What's that?"
"Your HEART!" he roared as he lunged for the hero, his hand covered in fiery Darkness.

Zack, who had just climbed into the stands, was startled by Raez's announcement. Did he just say what I thought he said?! Where's he from?! ...Should I help the champion? Zack decided that if the situation got really bad, he'd offer some assistance.

The Heartless's attack was deflected and he was punched in the left side of the head, knocking off his eyepatch, revealing a long scar running down his eye. Raez stumbled before standing straight up again. He turned back toward the hero. Burning Rage returned to the Dark Realmer's hand. He opened his shut left eye, revealing his emblem.
"Wh-what's wrong with your eye?!" gasped Hercules.
"Nothing is wrong with it." replied the Third solemnly. "I don't have time to explain. But I can tell you one thing. I'm here to kill you and take your heart." He snapped and more of the explosive orbs formed around the arena. As the orbs did their jobs, sending the god bouncing around the stage, he released several volleys of dark fireballs, scalding whatever they hit. The audience grew frantic and tried to rush to their hero's help, only for Raez to make walls of dark fire between the arena and the stands. He summoned several Crimson Jazzes to dissuade any that were feeling bold.

Ok, it got worse. thought Zack as he summoned Lionheart and rushed to the stage. However, he was stopped short by a wall of dark fire and many Crimson Jazzes. Now what? Then an idea popped into his head. This might work, but there's also a possibility of it not having any effect or even making the situation worse. Zack tried hard to see through the flames, but he couldn't see anything past them. Please hit your mark. he thought to himself as he threw Lionheart through the flames in a blind attempt to hit Raez.

Raez felt the blow and was startled by it, stumbling forward a few steps. He turned toward the Keyblader. "Kill them all." he ordered his underlings. The Crimson Jazzes turned their attention toward Zack, as well as a small group of Fiery Globes jumped out of the fire wall.

Zack caught Lionheart as it came back through the wall of dark flames. Then he noticed the Crimson Jazzes, as well as some Fiery Globes, seemed to be mainly targetting him. I guess I did hit my mark. he thought as he jumped away from them and started casting Blizzard spells to get rid of them.

"Now. Time to die, god." said the Heartless solemnly. He lifted his free hand. The fire that made up the walls joined together and swirled up into Raez's palm, forming a giant, spinning, dark fireball.

Zack noticed the sudden disappearance of the dark, fiery barriers as they concentrated in a dark fireball in Raez's outstretched hand. Zack quickly made an opening in the Heartless using Blizzard and rushed in, hoping to jump in front of Hercules and deflect the dark fireball with Lionheart.
