A weapon appearing from nowhere should have been something a Heartless was more than familiar with, but that didn't mean that Sora had been expecting it in any way. The sudden light caused him to scamper backward, but he wasn't fast enough to completely avoid the scythe, which caught him in the chest.

Both of the humans were yelling at each other, and while the creature didn't want to give up on this piece of prey, it was clear that once again he was going to have to fight to get what he wanted.

But he was sick of running, and so he jerked away from the scythe and the chain, even though black ooze was now dripping from his chest. If this one had light on her side, then he could always target the other. Which was how he ended up making a panicked leap for Leanne.
