Author note: I've never really done a complete fanfiction before. But I'm giving it a shot. I'm currently at work on Chapter one of this bad boy, but it might take me a while of editing, I'm my worst critic.
I of course, do not own and of these characters, though I might have some originals in here, I haven't decided yet, all others belong to Square Enix and Disney
Flurry of Dancing Flames
By: Harrison Andrew
Prologue: Red
Color fades to black as black fades away to nothing, and in the nothing there is, as is stated, nothing.
Red is no exception to this. Red is… a color of many things. But most of all, it is a wild, aggressive, and outspoken hue.
Red inspired fire, fire that can burn for ages and ages. It takes on its warpath and sends all that stands in its way to the inevitable darkness. But fire also shines a path for those in the dark.
A flame, that when it is burned up, and has lost that red inspiration, will fade, fade away to black and then to nothing.
Does fire have a soul? Does the red that inspires the fire have a soul? And who knows if nothing is nothing… for if you see nothing… then you are seeing something. That something, is nothing.
But nothings and somethings have no relevance to red. For red is a defined something, a something that dwells in the heart of everything, making it wild, and making the heart burn with fire.
This fire we know as emotions, feelings of the soul and the heart combined. Without one, a soul, or a heart, there is no emotions, so it is said. Yet if something without this soul, without this heart, if they can find what is called red… maybe it will inspire a flame and thus that flame will grow into a heart.
Nothing is known on this theory for it is only thought that a soul must have its heart to be a something.
Those without souls are known as Heartless. They are told to have no hearts and try to take the hearts of the innocent. They roam worlds searching for the heart of that world, so that they can devour it. Yet when they are destroyed a heart is released. So therefore they indeed do contain a heart. Yet they have no souls, no brains, all they know is destruction and that is all they can do.
Those without a heart are known as the Nobodies. They are the empty vessel of a victim of the darkness, roaming, living in darkness, and feeling nothing. They are the ones who are on the edge of existence and imagination. It is difficult to determine if a Nobody can find that fire, that red, and take it to rediscover their heart, or if they have been so bereft of their feelings, their emotions, that they must take orders from the evolving Nobodies.
Organization XIII is a group of Nobodies who have found the spark of that fire, yet is not enough for them, they all want more, and they all run under the rule of the darkness. Darkness rules them and darkness does not want them to receive their heart. It takes over their mind, and in turn takes what is left of them away to the world of nothing.
Nobodies must take on the challenge, must find "red", and must let it inspire the fire inside of them. Quests cannot be limited to those who have hearts, to those who have emotions. For those who don't are just as worthy to start journeys. This is his.
