My second fan fiction since Frozen Hearts. Yay! I'm still working on my crossover story, but I thought I'd put up a new story in the meantime.
I've been looking at Puja723's guideline on how to make a Kingdom Hearts OC, so I'm really hoping I don't end up pulling a Mary Sue and that I make my OC as believable in the Kingdom Hearts world as best as I can. If I do end up pulling a Mary Sue somewhere in the story, sorry!
Anyway, I'm still kind of working some stuff out with this story so the updates will be coming later than with Frozen Hearts. Probably up to 4-5 days between each update; a week tops. Just thought I'd give you a heads up. I'll be working on some other stories to post up as well.
But enough said. Let's get this story started!
Prologue
Maleficent sat on her throne, deep in thought as she caressed her crow Diablo who perched on her staff. "Soon, my pet. I may have failed in capturing Aurora's heart, but I am certain I will not fail again and soon the other six hearts of light will be mine."
Her thoughts were interrupted when a dark corridor appeared before her and two figures walked out. "Ah, Xehanort. What a pleasant surprise," the evil fairy softly chuckled. Xehanort smiled in return and said, "Indeed it is."
Maleficent turned her attention to the boy in the mask standing next to the old master. "I assume this is your apprentice Vanitas. But who is the girl in his arms?"
Vanitas was carrying a girl of 5 years who seems to be in a deep sleep. She had short black hair that went just below her chin and slightly dark skin. She wore a tattered black dress and there were a few cuts on her arms and legs.
"She is the daughter of my recently deceased former comrade. I obtained her just before her home world was plunged into darkness and cast her into a deep slumber. When she wakes, she will no longer remember her past," Xehanort explained.
Maleficent looked at him questionably. "And what is the reason for bringing her here?"
Vanitas scoffed, "Apparently, my master intends to use this girl for something later on in the future. Though I don't know why. She doesn't really look very useful other then as a punching bag."
"Appearances can be deceiving," Xehanort said to the boy, then turned his attention back to Maleficent, "I'm afraid that I cannot look after the child until her time comes. I believe that perhaps you could raise the child until she can be of use to me."
Maleficent was crossed. "What makes you think that I would look after her? I don't see any reason in doing so."
Xehanort smiled wickedly and said, "But what if I told you that this girl can be of assistance in your plan to unlock the door?" This caught Maleficent's interests. "She is to wield a keyblade, a weapon that will surely be useful in capturing the seven lights."
Maleficent thought for a moment, then smiled coldly. "Very well. She shall be in my care for the time being." With a wave of her staff, the girl levitated out of Vanitas's arms and towards the evil fairy. She then called for a few of her thugs and had them take the girl to a chamber.
As Xehanort and Vanitas was about to leave, Maleficent called to the old man, "May I ask what is her name?"
The old man glanced behind him and simply said, "Kaida. Her name is Kaida," and left.
And scene! How do you like it so far? I know it's a bit short but it's a work in progress. :/
By the way, Kaida means "little dragon" in Japanese and I think it's pronounced "kay-dah". I hope I captured the characters well. If I'm a little bit OOC with a few of them in this chapter or in any future chapters, my bad! :(
What does Xehanort plan to do with Kaida? Who was her father? How will Kaida's presence impact the Kingdom Hearts storyline?
These questions may or may not be answered in the next chapter, so tune in when the next chapter comes out!
