It was a sunny day, the boys are out in the woods taking a stroll.
"Nothing beats a nice stroll through the woods," Prompto said, stretching his arms.
"Yeah, but napping would be better," Noctis replied lazily.
"Exercise is indeed good for your health," Ignis pointed out.
No one said a word, all that was heard was the susurrus of the leaves in the wind and their foot steps on the ground were the only sounds.
They weren't excepting, black giant ants with huge yellow eyes, rose from the ground.
"What in the world?" Gladio says with shock.
"Hey Noct, your father is bigger than those," Prompto jokes.
The prince slaps him on the back. "You're on your own."
"No time for jokes, it's time to fight these creatures," Iggy remarks.
The four summon their weapons and fight. The wind grew violently, making the leaves and the tress blow.
The creature smacked them to the ground-the men groaned. One of them pounced on Noctis.
"Noooccttt!" Prompto shouts.
The three get off the ground and they smack the ant looking with on top of their friend, but it was too late for them to save him...
A pool of darkness surrounds the prince. "What's going on?"
"Noctis, hang tight," Iggy said in a calming tone.
But he then disappeared... he faded into darkens and the black creatures disappeared with him.
"Where is Noct?" Gladio asks with worry as he's looking around for him.
The young blonde got on his knees and he started to dig, making the sand go flying. "Come back buddy!" He cries.
The two look down at him like he's insane. "That's no way we can get him back," Ignis says.
"Then how do we get him back?" Prompto wipes his tears and he stands to his feet.
"I'm not sure, but I have a feeling that the Marshall knows about this," The British man crossed his arms over his chest.
"Where do we find him?" Gladio asks.
"I'll give him a call." Iggy pulled his phone out of his pocket and and dialed Cor's number.
It ranged a couple of times. "What's up?"
"Our friend, Noctis was taken by black ant looking things. Do you have an idea what is going on?"
"Meet me in Hammerhead, we can discuss it," Cor hung up.
Ignis put his phone in his pocket. "He's in Hammerhead."
"Wonder why he's there," Gladio responses.
...
Iggy barked the car at the gas pump, and the they all climbed out of the car. The first thing they saw was Cor. "My car is getting worked on."
"So about the black creatures," Ignis reminded him.
"Those creatures are called Heartless. They have no heart, they are nothing."
"That doesn't make any sense," Prompto said.
"Kingdom Hearts plots are not easy to understand, anyway. They take people's hearts away and the hearts go into a big heart, called Kingdom Hearts. Now the person, has no heart-they are now nobodies."
"How do we get to Noct?" Gladio asked.
"Well he's in a group called the Organization 13. They are all nobodies, their goal is to become whole, which is to have hearts of their own. Only a keyblade wielder can set Kingdom Hearts free. There is no way that you can get to him. They only way he can get into his world is that he has to get his heart back."
"How do you know all of this?" Prompto asked.
"I'm not sure, I just know."
"Whoa, you're like a god, they know everything!" Prompto shouts with a big smile.
"So what do we do now?" Iggy asks, looking up at the sky.
"Wait for Noctis to return. That's all you can do."
"Thank you for your help," Gladio said with a smile.
"Not a problem."
"How the heck is Lady Lunafreya gonna know?" Prompto wondered.
"I'll let her know," Cor replied. "You guys, go relax and don't worry about your friend, I'm sure he'll be fine."
"Alright, let's head back to the hotel," Iggy suggested.
They all said their goodbyes and they parted ways.
