Thinking of you...

Wherever you are.

We pray for our sorrows to end,

And hope that our hearts will blend.

Now I will step forward and realize this wish...

And who knows,

Starting a journey may not be so hard...

Or maybe it has already begun.

There are many worlds,

But they share the same sky...

One Sky

One Destiny

KINGDOM HEARTS II

The Darkness of the Heart

.Prelude.

Long ago, a time before my own, there was a man who set out to find a natural phenomenon. "The Darkness of the Heart". His name was "Ansem". He was a scientist like no other. Instead of searching for the answers of the worlds he knew through theory and science, he choose to study the emotions of people. Their hearts and everything in between. Unknowing that this would lead to the biggest mistake he could ever imagine. It led to my father.

One day while Ansem was out searching for people to conduct his experiments, he found a young boy. The boy was in a somewhat coma. And in sympathetic actions for the young boy he built a machine. He called it "The Crystal".It was a chamber designed to control a coma for one year. At the end of its grace period the chamber would open and the coma would be lifted. Ansem placed the boy inside the chamber and left him there.

One year came and went...

When Ansem opened the chamber the boy awakened from his slumber. Remembering only his name he gave Ansem his life and agreed to become Ansem's apprentice. "Xehanort became" a great help to Ansem. And together on their homeland of "Radiant Garden" they created The Door To Darkness. This machine was a success. It sought out the darkness in ones heart and transformed it into a being made purely of darkness. Ansem and Xehanort named the creatures a "Heartless". The machine may have been a success but at a terrible cost. The persons life. Their limbless body also remained. Until it for some reason "snuck" off somewhere. However, Ansem and Xehanort refused to let it bother them. They guessed it was part of the process...how wrong they were. Still they named the beings "Nobodies". Are they really...nothing...or are "we" something more. For a while, the Heartless were controlled. Until personal intentions came into play. For some unknown reason, Xehanort gained the feeling that the heartless and him had some connection. He began to abuse the machine. Creating Heartless left and right. Creating different types. Stronger Heartless. Dangerous Heartless. In the end, Xehanort was completely consumed by the darkness. Thats when the trouble began. When Xehanort's Heartless arose, Ansem had no choice but to go into hiding. Seeing this Xehanort's heartless assumed the name Ansem, and continued his experiments.. He began to track his experiments progress through a system of reports.

However, what no one knew was the fate of the bodies that were transformed into Heartless. They believed that the Nobodies vanished from existence. But Xehanort's Nobody along with the others lived on. However some hearts were so strong that they maintained a human form...rather than the limbless bodies they usually assumed.

Xehanort's Nobody "Xemnas" lived on.

Xehanort was a being made from darkness. And before Ansem found him, he was once a great warrior He along with three others were known as "Chasers". These, beings were powerful beings. They were the creators of the strongest weapon imaginable. The Keyblade was a weapon with the powers to unlock anything. Xehanort and the other's created this weapon in case their plan should back fire. You see, When Ansem and Xehanort created the Heartless, it was not the first time. It was simply a prophecy repeating it self. Every once in a while the Keyblade's they created would choose a new few, and those few would have to unlock the door to and close "Kingdom Hearts".

Kingdom Hearts was a door containing the Heartless. In doing this, the current Keyblade wielders would have to choose a path. This path, metaphorically shown by a field with 4 paths, leads to the persons ultimate life. There are 4 paths. 2 to light. These paths lead a good life in which happiness was certain. 1 to darkness. This led to the destruction of ones life...but would lead to..."a deep sleep". And 1 to Dawn. This would lead someone whose intentions were good but clouded by darkness to the light.

As you can guess, Xehanort was lead down the path of darkness. And he was also placed in the deep sleep...by Ansem The Wise. We now call him Ansem The Wise to separate him from Xehanort's Heartless. This road led to Xehanort to what is called "The Keyblade War". This is where he failed us all. He had one last show of redemption..and he gave it all up.

Years Later...

Ansem finished his reports and sought out Kingdom Hearts under the false belief that it was Darkness. Thought Kingdom Hearts contained all the Heartless. But thats not important. What is important is who stopped him. A boy named Sora became the new keyblade master. He and his friends Riku, and Kairi sought out to find new worlds. Only to have their own swallowed by the escaped heartless before their departure. Sora acquired the keyblade and began his gradual way down the road to light. While Riku accepted the darkness in hopes of saving Kairi, whose heart was captured by Heartless. Riku's body was captured by Ansem, and he spiraled down the road to dawn. While Kairi even though she was captured by darkness also spiraled down the road to light. On his journey to find and save Kairi, Sora was turned into a heartless. However, his love fir Kairi changed him back. But...a Nobody was still created. One who goes by the name of Roxas...my father. Kairi had changed back to...but a Nobody was also created...Namine...my mother. After Sora stopped Ansem, the troubles began with the return of an old friend names Xemnas. He, my father, 11 others and the distant but unwilling help from my mother created Organization XII.

However, My "Uncle Sora" stopped them again. Now, everything is over...and i lay here next to my best friends Ephen and and Emil. They're brother and sister...but man is Emil pretty...Don't judge me. My names Karma. I live in the newly built Radiant Garden...and this is how my life was turned upside down...
