Shiro's speed was incredible compared to before. He travelled all across the galaxy in mere minutes. His trace of Alicia was growing cold. However, he picked up on a small hint of her location. This hint grew quickly. From one planet to the next he was discovering more and more of the demonic and fiery power Alicia contained. In minutes she was caught.
"Found you," Shiro stated.
"You're as sharp as ever I see." Spoke Alicia with a grin.
"Sharper. We haven't seen each other since the first Great War."
"You mean the one where I killed your family? Yeah, that was quite a number of years ago."
"Three thousand four hundred eighty-two to be exact."
"Your not here with murderous intent, actually I can't even read your emotions at all. What are you here for?" She questioned.
"I'm not Lance any more. I've split with the darker half of me. I'm Shiro now. I'm here because I need you to get to the underworld. A specific portion. One where--"
"The Nava Nyx currently is right? Leon's friend Annie is there. Clearly your going to help them. But by whose orders? Last I checked Leon was asleep."
"Cloud's orders. I've been tracking you down on my own as well. I know you and Leon were together watching the eternal clock and the depths of the underworld together. I need passage to the eternal clock to wake Leon and slay Sora after he's separated from my body when he is at his weakest." Shiro explained to her.
"Wow. You really aren't the same boy I knew. You're so much colder... so much more focused. Fine I will take both you and Cloud there, but no one else. After that I will give you the power to reach the eternal clock. I shall wait there for you." She said smiling. With a wave of her hand they both appeared before Cloud. Before either could speak she waved her hand once more and they were in the underworld. "Go straight that way," she pointed to the left, "and you will find those you seek." She put her hand to Shiro's heart and fire burned his chest. He held a scream in.
