I admit most of my knowledge of the Foretellers comes from wikis and videos since I have not seen in full Back Cover. This story was inspired by a story on AO3 called for Those We Masters Have Wronged by awtuscany. I may continue this depending on the feedback. Plus I wanted to sneak in Sora X Ariel as the pairing is not as popular as it once was.
How long ago was it when things seemed so simple? Ava had no idea as she spent such a long time as a spirit. When her group the Dandelions did their best to unite the Unions and rebuild the world that had splinted into so many others.
She had felt it was for naught and she saw the turmoil and struggles that the young Keyblade wielders she had recruited had to go through. They had been too young for this but it was their strong hearts and the light within their hearts that had allowed them to keep the worlds strong as the time being.
Looking back she hated it had to be necessary. She and her fellow apprentices had been duped into making all this struggle and hardship inevitable and unnecessary.
The Master of Masters, he seemed like a wise if eccentric master who was looking to protect the world and the Kingdom Hearts from the darkness. To stop the Keyblade War from happen.
Instead he had left having assigned them all different roles, roles she now understood must have been purposefully set up to cause struggles, tension and conflict among their Foretellers group.
She was sure the Keyblade War should never have happened but it did. She tried to lead her Dandelions group into stopping the war as peacefully as she could but it was not to be. It caused the world to crack into different other worlds.
All it was left was for her to try and rebuild. For the first time she found herself silently cursing her former mentor. She had no idea what possible reason the Master of Masters had for intentionally putting all this into motion or where he had gone when he had decided to up and leave but she long ago decided she did not care.
She knew whatever reasons it would never prove satisfactory to her, she lost all faith in him.
She had disbanded the Dandelions and cast her physical form aside as a spirit to rest; her spirit had taken refuge on Destiny Islands until she ended up creating a new physical form as herself.
She ended up taking a new simple life as a civilian on the island's village; she ended up falling in love with a man who she had ended up getting married to. They ended up with a son Sora who she ended up having to raise alone when her husband passed away.
Ava loved her new simple life as a mother to her son Sora. He was always so pure and innocent; he reminded her greatly of the children she trained in the Dandelions. Those bitter memories always seemed to crop up despite how hard she tried to bury them.
She raised Sora as he grew up and made friends with the children in the village. His best friend being a boy called Riku who shared a competitive rivalry with. She would call for Sora when it was time for dinner and he was in the middle of a race with Riku who would end up winning.
Then she felt a great darkness in the skies and she was growing worried about what happened. She was dreading about what happened and if it would require her needing her old Keyblade. However the event soon passed and she was relieved that Sora was unharmed by all this. She checked him over to make sure he was alright to his frustration.
There was now a new girl who ended up on the Island called Kairi who quickly befriended the two boys. They would play with the other children especially Wakka, Tidus and Selphie.
She liked to watch Sora and Riku playing with wooden sword to enjoy watching Sora live out his childhood as well as make sure they were alright. She mused that with his strong heart he could easily have his own Keyblade but shook her head at those thoughts; she didn't want to think of having to train anymore children for war.
Especially not her darling boy.
Sora was now 14 and planning to build a raft with Riku and Kairi to go out exploring, she mused that it was not likely for them to go very far anyway. However lately she had been having dreams that made her think that Darkness may be approaching again, just like before.
She tried to ignore these dreams but had to face fact that it was a possibility. Plus she didn't know what happened to her fellow Foretellers; there was a strong possibility they could have survived as spirits just like she did. Plus she had not been in contact with any of them ever since the end of the Keyblade War.
But she decided if the Darkness was coming again then she would step up and stop it from happening; especially if Sora was threatened.
She refused to lose Sora just like she had lost countless of her Dandelions.
Before going to bed she looked to the old dirty fragile remains of what was her Foretellers mask; she had let it rot due to the bad memories it had possessed. She shook her head as she put it away and went to bed.
Sora and his friends would be building their raft tomorrow...
