What were those words he had once said? Weiss couldn't remember. He remembered little. Vincent. That man had beaten him, in all his forms, in all his power and glory, he knew that much. But just how powerful were the two of them? He asked himself this as he floated through the darkness, through the abyss of End of the World. As he floated, shrouded in darkness, he tried to remember what memories he had lost, but to no avail. Suddenly, the words, as if prompted on by some unseen, some unknown force, flooded into his mind.
"The pure will be "spared" for the cause, while the tainted will be hunted down and exterminated. They shall be slashed, strangled, and slaughtered. Beaten, stabbed, and crushed. Garroted and impaled. Shot and executed without mercy. The time has come to cleanse this world."
Why had he said this? Weiss didn't know. Images began flashing in his head, Images of a data-like Hojo. Hojo wanted to take control of Omega, to cleanse... To cleanse the world? It mattered not anymore, both Omega and Hojo were gone. But where was he? What was this abyss of lost souls and worlds called? And how did he end up here?
"Open your eyes brother." Nero's voice rang out through the darkness.
"Open my eyes? Aren't they open right now? I thought I was floating in darkness."
"You were." Nero replied to his brother. "But no more. Open them."
"Open my eyes. To what? What will I see? Some strange and desolate world? Will I see something that will return my missing memories? Will I see you, my brother?"
"All that and more dear brother."
Weiss opened his eyes. No longer was he floating in darkness, but he was being engulfed in a bright light.
"Brother!" Nero shouted.
"What's happening to me!!!" Weiss screamed as everything disappeared. He lost consciousness.
"Awaken." a voice whispered in his head.
Weiss opened his eyes, and slowly got up. He looked around. Darkness, but there were what appeared to be floating pillars around him. He looked down at his feet. He saw the image of Snow White, though he knew not who it was. He realized this was not stone, but glass.
"Are you ready to begin your journey?"
"My journey? For what?"
"Revenge. A quest for power." the voice replied.
Suddenly all of Weiss' missing memories poured into his head, like a river going over the edge of a cliff, a waterfall. Hojo possessed him. Used his body to destroy the world. He used his brother too, he tricked Nero into believing it was what Weiss wanted. Then Vincent came and ruined everything for Hojo. He beat everything Hojo threw at him. He even beat Nero and Weiss, who had fused and joined Omega, to always be together.
"Power. If it rivals that of what I once had, it will not be enough, but it will be a start. I wish to make Vincent pay, and if Hojo is still around somehow, I wish to make him pay, for deceiving my brother, for harming him, and for separating us."
The voice laughed. "Then begin your dive to the heart. You will regain your lost strength here. And maybe more. But you will grow in strength, even outside of this place. Only at a slower pace."
"Power is power, I will take what I can get." He walked toward the nearest pillar, and stepped off the edge. A colored stair appeared underneath his foot. He took another step, then another, and another, each time another step of a different color appearing under his foot. Finally he reached the next pillar.
He saw three pedestals. One with a shield, one a staff, and one a sword. As if by instinct, he grabbed the sword. He then grabbed the staff, and slammed the two together. A flash of bright light, and then the staff was gone. The sword changed into one of his "gunblades". He grabbed the shield, and it too began a "gunblade".
Black portals began to appear all around him, and out of them, crawled hundreds of Shadow Heartless. He shot five of them, then proceeded to kill the others by slashing them. He slashed and he slashed, but instead of getting slower, weaker, tired, he got faster, stronger, and became more energized. He let out a "battle cry", and twenty of the Heartless near him were destroyed. The remaining Heartless all jumped at him.
Four energy balls fired out of Weiss. Each one cut through a dozen Heartless, then vanished. He crouched down, then jumped into the air. He let loose a multitude of shots from his gun, destroying twenty or so Heartless. The rest jumped at him. He slashed at each one, leaving naught but a slight trace of their existence as they burst into wisps of darkness. He landed, and walked to the last pillar. On it, stood a man in a brown cloak. He waved his hand, and a giant Heartless appeared.
Weiss ran at his new opponent, and jumped. He slashed at the wrists, then the arms, the chest, and finally the head. It, like all the others, burst upon defeat. He landed.
"You are ready Weiss."
"I'm just getting warmed up. Are you sweating?" Weiss replied with a sneer.
"The figure shook its head. I am Heartless, I do not sweat."
A door appeared behind Weiss, and opened. However whatever was on the other side was made invisible because of the bright light that poured out from it.
"Go Weiss. Join your brother."
"My brother. Nero, we will be together soon. And then nothing will keep us apart ever again. Not even Vincent. But know this, I will get my revenge for what he and Hojo did to you, for what they did to us." He walked through the door, and was engulfed by the light.
The figure, now alone laughed. It removed the hood, to reveal Xehanort's Heartless.
"I wonder if he will be as easy to possess as Riku was. He has been corrupted by darkness. Though I will let him have his revenge, for I don't have the strength to hold him just yet. Weiss seeks power, and I will help him get it."
"Weiss! Wake up!" Nero yelled.
Weiss opened his eyes, and rolled over. He was surrounded by darkness once more. But this time he was not alone. He saw his brother floating above him.
"Nero my brother. Shall we go?"
