Hey there mortals. This is one of many fan-fics I'm currently writing, and is probably the one I shall lavish with the most attention.
So, I guess I'd best just get on with it now.
So, I hope you liked it!
All criticism is appreciated, but no insulting my work too much please!
I'm going to go work on Chapter 2 now, as I'm hoping to get some proper action into it!
So, I guess I'd best just get on with it now.
"There were less than that... Less than last time..."
"Stop messing about and tell us what you saw!"
"I saw... Just shadows... Seven shadows..."
----------------------------------
Kumo stood in front of his father's grave, reminiscing about when he was still alive. It was raining, just liked it always seemed to do on the anniversary of his death.
"Father... I'm sorry."
Kumo slowly walked away from the grave, trying to cheer himself up as he did.
Kumo lived on the beautiful Destiny Islands, and his best friends were called Sora, Riku, and Kairi. They always played on a small island across from the main one, where all three of them lived. There was one time, around a year ago, when all the other three vanished.
All Kumo can remember about this time is running. Running from a group of people, and somehow he managed to escape them. After this, he came back to the islands just as Kairi did, but Sora & Riku never returned until ages later...
As he got over the ocean, he realised that only Sora was there. Kumo got off his boat and ran over to him.
"Hiya!"
"Oh, hi Kumo!" Sora replied, looking happy to see him. "Where are the others?"
"I'm not sure, but I think they may be coming here soon," Kumo answered, remembering when he saw them on the way here.
Kumo and Sora simply played while waiting for Riku and Kairi, who soon arrived as well.
"Hi guys!" Kumo shouted, waving at them.
"Hi!"
“Hey there, Kumo.”
Both Kairi and Riku replied, waving back to the smiling Kumo. They then played for a short while, but their fun was destined to end soon…
As they all lay on the beach, Kairi turned to the others and said, “Do you think we’ll be able to be friends without something like… Last time happening?”
Kumo looked up to the sky and remembered that long he’d spent when he was separated from the others, just running and running. He had no recollection of whom it was he was trying to escape from, but the one time he did make a stand it didn’t turn out too well. Kumo had nearly been killed, but a stranger saved had saved his life.
After that, he asked who the person was, only to be told to try and find his way back to the Destiny Islands...
"Hey, Kumo! Snap out of it!"
Kumo shook his head from side to side, looking up to see the others staring worriedly at him.
"Uhh... What just happened?" Kumo asked, just before it happened. The ground began to violently shake, and all four of them got up and looked over towards the main island. It simply disappeared into darkness, and this soon approached the small island they were on.
"Oh no, please don't say it's happening again!" Kumo thought to himself, but that was when something odd happened. Instead of being split from the others, like last time, he could still see them while the ground shook even more and the island they were on eventually got surrounded by darkness.
Kumo fell to the ground, and when he looked up he saw two yellow eyes staring back. These eyes were attached to a pitch black, strange looking creature with attenae protruding from it's head. It lunged for him, and the only thing Kumo could think of doing is raising his arms in defense.
That's when Kumo saw a bright light fly past, and Kumo was shocked as the creature vanished. When all the darkness from the disintegrating creature had vanished, Kumo looked forward to see his saviour: it was Sora, holding a large, silver key in his hand.
He turned to Kumo and shouted "Look out!", and Kumo turned to see a few more creatures appear behind him. He jumped out of the way as Sora vanquished them, and then asked what was going on.
"I don't know, but for some reason," Sora said, destroying more of the creatures as he spoke. "For some reason, my Keyblade has come back to me!"
Kumo then remembered Sora telling him about a strange weaon that had appeared to him when the islands were destroyed last time, a weapon called the Keyblade. Before he could remember anymore however, another creature appeared and pounced for Kumo. There was another bright light, but this time it wasn't from the Keyblade...
Kumo opened his eyes and looked around. there was nobody here except for him, and he soon realised he was stood on top of something.
After his eyes adjusted properly, he could see where he was. There was a huge pillar beneath him, connected to a few others via some stairs. There was only darkness besides that. Kumo decided to see what was on the other four pillars, and wlaked towards them all. An omnipotenet voice soon spoke, however.
"Choose only one... For the wrong ones shall lead to your destruction..." Kumo looked at them all, and then decided to go up the second one from the left. He walked up the stairs as all the others vanished, believing he had chosen the right one.
When he reached the top, though, there were even more of those creatures. Kumo stared bravely at them this time, however, and something shocking soon happened.
There was a third bright light, this time in his hand.
Kumo shielded his eyes, only to have look back when the light had surpassed.
Kumo couldn't believe what he saw, because of what it was...
A Keyblade...
