Kingdom Hearts 2: FES
Chapter One: Yed Sid and Philemon
A tower stands tall over the twilight. In the tower through the countless stairs that leads to the chamber of a wise wizard, with a white beard and wearing blue robes. The wizard has been meditating, about a different world. This world, once filled with millions of lights, now snuffed out like a candle in the dark of night. This world, this planet called earth, is now engulfed in an infinite night, without a sunrise.
"...This is concerning." The wizard spoke as he noticed a glowing blue butterfly flying towards his desk.
"It has been far too long, my old friend."
"Yes, it has, Master Yen Sid." The butterfly answered as it became a man with a blank white mask and brown hair in a long ponytail. The man wore the brightest of white clothes.
"I have learn what happen to the earth, but what brings you here, Philemon?" Yen Sid asked.
"...I need a favor." Philemon answered with what seemed to be worry in his voice.
"I sense that the avatar of death, Hinokagutsuchi, will appeared in this universe and plots to destroy everything, to prevent the same event from occurring, I need you to summon those who awaken their powers, those who were awake during the end of the world, into your worlds."
Yen Sid ponder silently before answering.
"It will be done, but be forewarn I do not have enough power to summon all of these warriors to the same world."
"Thank you, I also know of your own crisis, of Organization XIII, so please send the persona-user who will appear in the tower with the keyblade wielder and his friends."
"I understand, the persona user will help Sora on his journey." Yen Sid answered
"Farewell, old friend." Philemon then disappeared as Yen Sid used a spell for his friend's request. From the smoke, a young man with grey hair and wearing a black school uniform appeared.
Meanwhile in the lower part of the tower.
A brown haired boy, with blue eyes, wearing a strange red outfit, and his friends, an anthropomorphic duck in blue named Donald, and Goofy, an anthropomorphic dog-like creature, entered the tower.
"So, where is this guy?" The boy asked.
"That's Master Yen Sid, Sora." Goofy corrected the boy as he laughed.
"It's no laughing matter." The duck yelled as he whacked a small black shadowy creature with his staff.
As the three climbed the stairs, they did not noticed the ghostly figure of Philemon watching them. "Good luck, Sora."
A few minutes and dozens of enemies later.
Arriving at the door of Yen Sid's Chamber, the trio stopped to catch their breath. "Whew, That nap was not a good idea." Sora thought as he thinks back to less then a day ago. First, the trio awaken from a strange pods inside a mansion of all places, then they meet three teens, boarded a train to Yen Sid's tower, where they fought off the heartless that Pete summoned to attack the wizard. "I wonder how long we been asleep, hope Riku and Kairi are okay." However, the sound of two voices interrupt his thoughts. "To find my friends, I have to travel the other worlds?" The younger voice asked. "Huh, I don't remember that voice." Goofy whispered to Sora. "Could he a friend of Pete?" Donald asked whispering as well. "If he is, we got to hurry!" Sora yelled as he and Donald rammed the door, leaving Goofy questioning their choice of action. "Wait, fellas, I don't think this is a good idea!" However, the two felled as the door slide open.
"Looks like you arrived, Sora." The sorcerer proclaim as grey haired male turned his attention to the three. "Mr. Yen Sid, are these the guys I'm supposed to go with?" The boy who look a year or two older than Sora asked. "What do you mean Mr.!?" Donald screamed with great annoyance. "It's all right, Donald, he was sent here by an old friend of my." Yen Sid calmly proclaim. "This young man is named Yu Narukami, and his world was just destroyed by a god of darkness." Upon hearing this, Sora thought back to when his world was destroyed and his quest to find his friends, Riku and Kairi.
"Yu, to find your friends and recreate your world, you must join Sora to defeat the nobodies and the members of Organization XIII." "Organization XIII?" Sora asked.
"Ah yes, I nearly forgot to explain, Sora, do you remember the heartless that plagued your quest to find Riku and Kairi?" Yen Sid asked as Sora nodded his head."What if I told you that there is another enemy that forms when one loses their heart." "What?!" The three screamed in surprise "These creatures are called the Nobodies." The four let the wise sage continue his speech.
"There are two types of Nobodies, those with weaker hearts form the foot soldiers of the Organization, the other are those with enough strength in their hearts formed the members of the Organization XIII, though human-like in nature, their act is a simple facade."
Sora was shocked by the arrival of new enemies, however the surprises did not stop with the nobodies as Yen Sid begin to explain another threat. "However, there is another problem that plagued the worlds, for the are creatures that take the form of humans. These Shadows, are the negative emotions that manifest into beings of pure wickedness." "So, we just beat them to a pulp and they disappear, right, Yen Sid?" Sora asked.
"No, for them to disappear completely, you must accept the darkness in your heart, the dark truths that you hide." Yu answered to the amazement of Sora and Donald. "So, what if you accept the truth?" Sora asked. Yu thought to himself for a moment, then answered when an azure colored card float down to his hand. "Where did that..." Donald begin to asked before Yen Sid commanded the duck to wait. Yu noticing the card, smirked, as he crushed the card and a creature with a black trench coat and white armor appeared.
"Whaa?" Donald and Goofy screamed as creature begin to speak. "I am thou, Thou art I. I am Izanagi, part of the soul of Yu Narukami." "You're part of his soul?" Sora asked. "Yeah, this is my Persona." Yu answered as Izanagi disappeared into the grey haired teen's heart. "Persona?" Sora thought to himself when Yen Sid explained to the keyblade wielder the differences between the summons and Personas.
"Now, before you start your journey, you might want to change your outfit, a warrior can't fight if his clothes are too small for comfort." A elder female's voice spoke. From the ceiling, three wise fairies appeared, in the colors of red, blue, and green. As Sora walked with the three into another room in the tower, Yu asked the wizard about his missing friends and family.
"I'm afraid that your friends are separated in the different worlds in this universe. As for Ryotaro and Nanako Dojima, they too are in another world as well." "Who?" the guardian of the King questioned. "My family." Yu sadly answered.
Donald and Goofy looked at each other before they tried to cheer the teen up by saying the same words when they first meet Sora. "Hey, don't be sad, our vessel runs on happy faces." Donald said. "I guess no one can get as you three, huh?" Yu smiled a little as Sora walked out of the other room, now wearing a black outfit. "Huh, what did I miss?" The younger Keyblader, humorlessly asked, causing his two friends to laugh.
"You ready?" Yu asked the three as their vessel arrived in the window of the tower. "Yeah." Sora calmly answered as the four thanked the Keyblade Master as they left.
Meanwhile in the Realm of Darkness.
A lone prayer echoes through the darkness as a young man awaken. "Where am I?" "You are here." A voiced echoed in the youths head. "Tell me, who are you..." "My name is Harbor..."The youth said as his black clock rustles in the wind."
