Jonathan cut down a few more Shadows and the numbers of Heartless were down to two, both of them Shadows. One facing him and the other facing Sorin or were when the scimitar wielding swordsman kicked the one he was facing towards the one facing the other swordsman then charged and cut both of the creatures down. "Done. You were.... passable. But these were small fries. You'd have died if it was someone tougher, so let someone with actual experience in combat deal with them instead of getting yourself killed." He only gave Sorin a glance as he told him this then walked away from him. Jonathan walked towards Riku, a serious expression on his face. Despite his surprise at Riku following him as well, he wanted to ask why the hell he brought someone who never fought before to a dangerous place.
Unfortunately, he didn't get the chance as a growing shadow landed right on him hard. "Who the hell did that?!!" Jonathan growled angrily but couldn't get up due to the weight and because his arms were pinned down as well. He managed to glance up to find a creature encased in a spherical suit of armor with eight conical, black spikes spaced evenly over its surface. This armor is primarily colored in shades of green, with some yellow decorations on it. Its thin arms jut out of circular openings in the armor on either of its sides. Its spindly legs share a large, circular opening at the bottom of the armor, and the tips of its feet point upward. The
Morning Star was it is called retracted its arms, replacing them with two large spheres covered in spikes then spun around.
The arms hit Jonathan hard but had the added effect of freeing him from being under the heavy armored Heartless by sending him flying away to a wall. Gritting his teeth, he got up and looked extremely angry, a furious glare focused at the Heartless, as two more Morning Stars appeared, followed by five Soldier Heartless. That didn't stop Jonathan from unsheathing his sword to attack the Heartless that hit him, only for another Morning Star to hit him while the third one went after Riku. As for the Soldier Heartless... they surrounded Sorin easily.
Back to Jonathan, he was having trouble fighting the armored Heartless. Because while he was used to fighting after all, they were against tough but unarmored opponents. Morning Stars were fully armored and used to moving around without having their speed affected by the weight, meaning the new Converger was having a bit of a challenge. There was no way Jonathan would ever admit he was having trouble with a fight, at all.
