-1Hello once more. This is a preview of my story called Kingdom Hearts: Keys of the Shinobi.

PLEASE NOTE: If you haven't played Kingdom Hearts, chances are you won't understand this preview. If you have played the game and let the title screen sit there for a while, a small demo/preview of the game would roll by. This is what would roll by if this was a game. I want to make that clear so it won't be so confusing.

If there are any inconsistencies or spelling mistakes or grammar mess-ups, let me know. I want to improve as much as I can, and constructive criticism will help. I also want your opinion on my writing style. If the writing seems a bit vague, then don't worry, it's supposed to be. But if it's too vague, then give me a heads up. Thanks.

Foreshadowing

Thinking of you wherever you are

We pray that our sorrows will end

And that our hearts will blend

Now I step forward to realize this wish

And who knows:

Maybe starting a new journey may no be so hard

Or maybe it has already begun

There are many worlds

But they share the same sky

One sky, one destiny

Three teens can be seen in a cave. One girl with red hair, whose back is turned to the viewer. There are two boys with her, one with brown hair that defies all the laws of physics. His eyes are a bright blue, like the sky. The other has silver hair that reaches a bit past his shoulder. His own eye color is as unusual as his hair, for it is a light aquamarine. They seem to be searching for something, judging by the way the girl is crouching, scanning the cave wall. The brown haired boy suddenly calls out to the other two, and motions them over. As his friends come to look, the scene shifts…

It's midday in a large town, and one could find a blonde haired teen sitting a ramen bar, eating with gusto. The owner of the restaurant says something to the boy, and they both laugh. The blonde looks up from his food as someone calls his name, and grins. His face can be seen clearly to the viewer for the first time. The teen's hair is messier than the brown haired boy's which is saying something. His eyes are just as blue as the mentioned boy, and just as bright. He has three distinctive whisker-like marks on each cheek, giving him a slight vulpine appearance. On his forehead is a headband with a meal plate on it, showing a swirling leaf in the center. A girl then sits next to him, who looks as unique as her friend. Her bright pink chin length hair was enough to turn heads, but her green eyes were even more vibrant, though not quite as much as the blondie next to her. She wears a matching headband, but wears it up to keep her bangs from falling in her eyes. She says something to him, and the boy nods. He finishes his meal quickly, pays for it, then took off, the girl following closely behind.

Again the scene shifts. It's pouring rain, and the blonde can be seen in a training ground. He repeatedly pounds at a dummy, ignoring the splinters imbedded in his skin. He finally falls back, summoning a bright blue orb of energy that looks like a contained hurricane. He smashes it into the dummy, tearing through it like paper. Once the attack is finished, the boy stops, panting. His eyes reflect immense pain and loneliness, but along with that, determination. Before he can continue, a hand lands on his shoulder. He looks to see a teenager at his age, with brown hair that defies gravity, not unlike his own. The teen's eyes are just as bright and blue as his own. They are filled with understanding, it seems the brunette can sympathize with his pain. He says something, and the blonde nods, a tired smile on his face.

Suddenly, the view changes to a fierce battle. The brunette boy holds a key-like sword in his hands, parrying a massive scale covered blade that is easily the length of his body. One could see the effort it took to stop the massive sword from cleaving him in half on the boy's face. With an unheard cry, he shoved the weapon aside and took a slash at his opponent.

Elsewhere, and perhaps elsewhen, the blonde from before dodges an explosion. His pink haired friend from the ramen bar races forward, then punches the ground with enormous strength. Boulders fly up around her as she makes a large crater. Using the airborne earth as projectiles, she kicks them up to intercept exploding missiles aimed at her comrade. She makes as many boulders as her enemy makes explosions, plus one more. She then sent the remaining boulder at her opponent. The viewer catches a glimpse of a large white bird with a black cloaked figure…

From then on the images become more fragmented, and soon are nothing more than flashes. A teen with raven hair and onyx eyes can be seen for a moment. His eyes become scarlet with three comma shape dots surrounding his pupils.

A woman is seen next, with pale, sickly green skin. Her eyes makes the viewer wonder if she is human, for the whites of the eyes are instead a pale yellow, and the irises are as black as night. No hair can be seen under the hood she wears, but two spiraling pitch black horns can be seen rising from her skull. She wears a robe that's as dark as her horns, and has a skin tight hood over her head. She holds an ebony staff with a crystal adorning it. A raven sat on her shoulder, a wicked intelligent gleam in it's eye.

Yet another man flashes past the viewer's eyes. The first thing one can notice is how pale he is. His skin is a deathly white. The second feature that seems unnatural is the man's eyes. The irises are a molten gold color, but they hold no warmth. His pupils are slitted like a cat or a reptile, and insanity can clearly be seen in his eyes. A long slimy tongue seems to slither it's way out of his mouth…

The last person seen is a man whose face is in shadow. Blood red eyes pierce the darkness, striking fear into the hearts of all. He wears a black robe adorned with red clouds, but even through the bulk of the clothing, one can see that he has a strong, lean build. The viewer can see that the man has a hair style similar to that of the blonde teenager, but no joy radiates from this man. Danger leaks from every pore on his body. Even the most battle-hardened warriors would cower in fright from this man's presence.

Two boys in separate worlds shot up from their beds, panting as if they had ran a marathon.

"What the heck?" Sora Kyoui shook his head. To calm himself down, he looked out of the window as dawn broke over Destiny Islands.

"What was that?" Naruto Uzumaki asked to himself.

"That was no normal dream," a deep voice rumbled in Naruto's mind.

'I know that!' the blonde snapped, watching the day begin in Konohagakure, outside through a bedroom window.

Both boys were rattled by what they saw in their shared dream. They had seen familiar and foreign faces. There was one thing they wanted to know above all else though.

"Who was that guy?"

"Who was that guy?"

Little did they know that their lives were fated to collide…

AN: Well, what did you think? I had a couple people go over it as well as edit it. I hope you liked the little glimpse as to what will happen in the story. If you will actually read and review the main story as well as this, I'll be extremely happy. I have some interesting twists planned for this story, I can't wait till the grand finale. Please leave me your opinions. I want to know! (And for the ones who can guess what Sora's last name means, I'll congratulate them when I post the first chapter.)
