I had recently replayed Kingdom Hearts 1 and 2 as well as watching all of Kamen Rider Decade. I decided to create a story based on the two. This will have Digimon characters, follow the overall plot of Kingdom Hearts regarding Heartless and the Door. I'll also take many elements from Kamen Rider Decade.
It was dark.
Very dark.
The only light that is shining is coming from a hole in the ground, a hole that seems to be holding a small body of water. The light that seems to be coming out of the water ripples with the liquid, making abstract bends of light all over the area. Surrounding the waterhole, a group of people stand over it, looking into the water. The darkness of the area kept their detailed appearance a mystery, but the light from the water gave off a silhouette of each of them.
"It's time, wouldn't you say?" One asked.
"But is he ready?" A female voice asked the others. "It will be a waste if he isn't prepared."
"He will be." One other said. The water then began to show an image. It was blurry, but it was able to make out a figure of a girl. "She's the key to awakening his potential. We must act fast, I sense that trouble is approaching."
Kari sat by her desk, working with a needle and thread to build something. Her desk had been scattered with many fabric materials, and many spools with different colored threads. She got a hold of the thread with her teeth and tugged it to tighten the stitching on the small item she was making. Satisfied with her work, she snipped the loose end of the thread and looked at her creation. The object was shaped as a five prong star that was no bigger than the palm of her hand. The star was designed to look like a person; the top prong having a face as well as some brown thread to resemble a messy hair. The two prongs next to the head were the arms and the lower two were the legs. The top of the first prong had a metal loop that was connected to a small chain with a clip at the end. Smiling with her work, she got up from her chair and headed out the front door.
Leaving her apartment, she pulled her cellphone out from her pocket and dialed a number. Waiting on an answer, she waited outside the entrance to her apartment. "Hello?"
"Davis? Hi, it's Kari." She answered. "Where are you?"
"I'm at the soccer field, why?" Davis asked.
"I've got something to show you." Kari answered. "I'll see you there in a minute."
"Ok, I'll be waiting."
Kari hung up and hurried to where the soccer field was. Having lived here her whole life, she knew very well where the field was. It wasn't that far of a distance, so she'd get there in a few minute or so, given her walking speed. But being excited to see Davis, she decided to jog there. That should cut the time down to maybe a minute.
"Wait." One voice spoke out as they continued to observe the events taking place in the small water hole. "This isn't right, it's too soon."
"He's not yet ready." A female voice said.
"This is bad." A male, older voice said. "Really bad, he needs to be guided."
"I'll go now then." A male, younger voice said. "He'll need to know his responsibilities sooner than expected." His image slowly faded from sight as he was walking away from the water that showed images of the terror taking place.
"Let me go with you then." The female voice said, following after him.
"Motomiya has the ball." Davis was alone on the soccer field, kicking his soccer ball around the field as if he was in a game. "He fakes a left." Davis did as he said, he made a fake to the left side, but then darted to the right. "He's got an opening..." Davis then looked ahead and saw the empty goal near. He swung his right leg back and delivered a powerful kick, sending the soccer ball towards the goal in a bending arc. "GOAL!!!" Davis threw his arms up and cheered. "Motomiya has delivered the winning goal. Listen to the crowd!" Davis then imitated the sound of spectator's cheering. "Just listen to them calling his name; Motomiya, Motomiya, Motomiya."
"Motomiya." a male voice called to him in a serious tone.
"Huh?" Davis stopped spinning on the spot. "That's new." He looked over to where the voice was coming from. Right in the middle of the field, there was someone. He looked no older than Davis and he was dressed in a strange attire. He wore red and navy blue shirt under a black and silver hooded jacket that appeared to have shoulder guards on it held together by yellow straps. He had a pair of baggy black pants that matched the jacket in color as well as design. His combat boots as well as his fingerless gloves were designed to match the clothes as well, making it seem as though the entire attire was a one uniform. His hair was quite similar to Davis, save for the fact that it was much more large and spikier than his own. "You a fan? Want my autograph?"
"Davis, it's time." He said. "Today, you're mission starts."
Davis looked at him confused. "Huh? Mission? Well, you sure aren't a fan." Davis walked over to the bleachers to grab his sports bag. "Listen, if you're trying to sign me up for another team, I..." When Davis looked back to the middle of the field, he was no longer there. "...'m not...interested..." Davis looked around the field, but he was nowhere in sight. "That was weird."
"Davis!"
Davis looked over to the direction of the voice. Recognizing the voice and the face it came form, Davis smiled brightly. "Kari." Davis opened his arms as Kari hugged him when she was in reach. Kari quickly pulled away and wiped her shirt. "Oh." Davis looked at himself. He knew why Kari was acting this way. "Maybe I should've headed home to shower after practice."
"That doesn't matter." Kari smiled. "I made you something."
While waiting for Kari to have the item present, Davis looked back to the field and saw the teenager again. "Her gift will assist you."
"What are you talking about?" Davis asked.
"What?" Kari looked up to Davis.
"That weird dude's been telling me these strange stuff." Davis pointed to the person on the field.
Kari looked at the field, but was looking very confused. "Who, there's no one there." Confused himself, Davis looked again. Sure enough no one was there. "Anyways, here it is." Before she could pull it out from her pocket, the two suddenly heard the loud clanging of metal. They both looked at the field and saw a large group of strange black and blue creatures hopping their way towards them, with their helmets bobbing up and down with their movement. "What...what are those things?"
As soon as the things moved faster towards them, Davis grabbed Kari's hand and pulled her along in a run. "Let's go!" The two ran off, down the street that was parallel to the field. As they continued to run, they saw that people on the streets were running in terror. "What the hell?" They saw the people running from more of these small black creatures, which were followed by other monsters, ones that were much larger and much more ferocious. They both watched in horror as many of the people were attacked by these monsters and killed. "Where did they all come from?" Kari asked in fear. Davis' grip on Kari's hand tightened. "We keep running, I'm not gonna let us die here." As they continued to run, a sudden explosion erupted right before them and threw the two apart. Kari was sent flying back to the park, tumbling down the hill.
Davis landed right on the hood of a car with his ears ringing as loud as the Big Ben clock tower. As Davis got off the car, he pressed his palms on his ears to muffle the outside sound and trying to reduce the ringing while closing his eyes, straining from the ringing in his ears. When he removed his hands from his ears, he found that there was no more screaming. No more sounds of terror, no more explosions. When Davis opened his eyes, he found himself standing on a tiny island. He looked around, seeing just how small it was. The island was strangle formed in a perfect circle with one palm tree right in the middle of the sandy island. While Davis continued to look around, he suddenly noticed someone on the island with him, standing right on the shore. It was the same person he saw back on the soccer field. "You, again? What do you want with me?"
"Davis, today's the day." The person said. "Why do you not have her gift?"
"Huh?" Davis looked at him puzzled. "What gift?"
The person sighed as he crossed his arms. "You don't have it yet. I didn't expect this." He then pulled the chain off his neck, tossing it to Davis. "Take this."
Davis reacted fast and caught the item. Looking at it, the chain had a pendant that was shaped like a three pronged crown. The chain was a a gunmetal gray while the crown pendant was a deep solid black. "What is this?"
"It's needed for you to have the power to fight this darkness." The person answered. "But it's only half of the power you require." He then waved his arm and created a large arched door that opened up to a rippling mirror pathway. "The girl, she holds the key to the other half. Find her." Davis slowly walked towards the doorway, but hesitated. "You can't hold back, you have to go." The person then pushed Davis through the door.
Davis stumbled as he managed to keep himself from falling by bracing himself on the wall that was in front of him. He looked around the place, finding himself right back where he started. The recognized the damaged car he flew into from that one explosion, the street that he and Kari were running through. "Kari?" He then remembered that he was separated from her. "Kari!"
Kari ran through the city with the panicking citizens, while all these dark monsters began to terrorize their homes. Everyone kept running around in panic with no concern about anyone else around them, as long as they survive, they would push their way to safety. With the crowd Kari was running with, they all found themselves in the center plaza of a large corporate building. Looking around, Kari felt that they were safe.
Suddenly, an explosion erupted from the top of the buildings. Looking up, Kari watched in horror as giant Behemoth monsters roared at them and broke the building apart. Kari ran with the panicking crowd, as many were picked off by the smaller Fiends that had found them. The plaza became filled with more of these monsters, there were some that crawled, some that flew, and some that slithered. Regardless of how they moved, they were threatening the lives of the people here. Kari managed to escape the chaos in the plaza and continued to run out in the streets and more monsters had appeared and more destruction took over the city.
She needed to find a place to hide, somewhere where she could be safe. She didn't care where it was, just as long as it would keep these monsters away. While running around looking for such a place, Kari suddenly found herself blocked from running by a small group of abnormally large and round monsters. By the looks of them, they didn't seem like the running type, but because they were big and there were many of them, running around them was going to be a problem. Also considering that their large side made them seem like a dangerous thing to be crushed by, Kari decided to find another way to escape. Running back, she was blocked by the strange monkey looking creatures that wildly bounced around, surrounding her. Feeling that escape was hopeless, Kari dropped to her knees, buried her head in her arms, and closed her eyes. She waited for them to just be done with her, but instead of feeling the pain of death, she felt nothing. Instead of hearing them attacking, she heard the screeching of the monkey monsters and some strange small explosion sound.
"Are you alright?"
Kari looked up. She found that the monsters that had surrounded her were gone, leaving her alone with one woman. She wore strange clothing; a black and blue high collar halter top with white string laces just outside of the abdomen area, two pink straps crossing across her chest, white bell sleeves that hid a large portion of her hands that wore tan fingerless gloves. Her black stockings went up her thighs, but ended a few inches away from the end of her black shorts, leaving a fair bit of space on her thighs to show some of her clean skin. She also wore two blue clothes that draped over the outside of her legs, and a white sash. Her feet were protected by armored boots that looked fit to kill.
"I said, are you alright?" The woman asked again.
"Uh..yes. Yes, I'm alright." Kari answered.
The woman offered a hand to Kari. "Here, on your feet."
Kari took that hand and she was helped back up her feet. "Thank you." She slapped the dirt off her pants, getting as much out as she could. "Who are you?" Since this woman saved her, she must know what's going on. "What are those things that are attacking everyone? What's going?" She hoped that this woman would give her some answers.
"I don't have much time to explain things." The woman said. "You must find Davis, you must give him the gift you prepared."
Kari reached into his pocket and pulled out the charm she made earlier today. "You mean this? It's just a charm I made for him, what good will this do?"
"This 'charm' is the key to unlocking Davis' hidden powers." The woman answered. The two then heard the roaring sound of more monsters. "You must go, I can guide you to him, but I cannot stay." She then began to glow in a bright blue aura. "Please, find him." Her voice echoed as she slowly disappeared from view as the blue aura also faded with her. Kari did as she was told, he continued to run, looking for Davis, with the charm tightly held in her hands.
"Kari!" Davis shouted for Kari. People continued to run around in the chaos, but on the fortunate side, there were no monsters to harm them. That didn't stop the people from being calm, Davis was almost trampled by them on more than one occasion.
Suddenly, a giant dragon-like beast flew from above and caused much more chaos. People scattered all over the place, leaving Davis to run around as well. "KARI!!" Davis continued to shout for Kari, hoping that she would hear his voice and respond. The dragon continued to make the fear worse, swooping down and picking off the people little by little. Davis had his share of blood splashed on him, but it didn't stop him from running for his life. Davis managed to get away from the mob, and away from the dragon, narrowly missing a swing from its tail. Deciding to take a different route to safety, Davis cut through the alley he dove into.
The alley wasn't exactly the best place to hide. With more than just a dragon flying overhead, the two parallel buildings were tearing the building apart, with debris falling from above and landing with a shattering effect. Just watching the large chunks break on impact made Davis knew that he didn't want to be underneath one of those. He then heard the low growl from up ahead, and it didn't sound like it came from a dog. Knowing that danger was just around the corner, Davis quickly tried to look for a place to hide. To his luck, he spotted a garbage dumpster just a few feet away. Davis quickly ran for the dumpster, running while trying to making his steps unheard. He jumped right into the dumpster and closed the top. He kept his breathing low while he heard the growling getting louder. He held his breath when he heard the growling to the point where it almost made the metal dumpster vibrate. The growl then began to fade, getting softer and softer, until he could no longer hear it through the crashing of the debris. He slowly opened the lid of the dumpster and scanned the area, making sure it was empty.
"Whew." Davis sighed in relief. Davis got out of the dumpster and continued to run. When he reached the other end, he quickly ducked behind a bus that had flipped over. He peeked inside and saw that there were still some people inside, all dead. He quickly averted his gaze, wishing not to vomit at the sight of so much blood and corpses.
While Kari ran through the city through the destruction, she suddenly began to see something out of the already un-ordinary. She began to see glowing blue auras that seemed to have the image of the woman in it. She ran towards the aura, but when she got cinches towards it, it disappeared. Looking ahead, she then saw the same aura in another location. Perhaps this was the guide that the woman was offering to give her. She followed the beacons of blue aura, which seemed to take her through the safe areas of the city where either no monsters were or where they had just left. When she reached one more glowing aura, she then spotted Davis hiding behind a flipped bus, looking to make sure the coast was clear. "Davis!"
When Davis saw Kari running towards him, he left his hiding spot, embracing Kari in a hug. "Kari, you alright?"
"Yeah, I'm fine." Kari smiled in relief, knowing that Davis was safe. "Here, take this." Kari gave the charm to Davis. "Someone told me that you would need this."
Davis looked at the charm. He didn't have much time to admire the work on it, an arrow suddenly landed right between them. Looking down, the arrow suddenly exploded, throwing the two back. Kari landed hard, but was still conscious. Davis landed on his back in a very painful impact. As he slowly got up, he saw that Kari was being surrounded by more monsters. "STAY AWAY FROM HER!!!" Before he ran towards them, he felt something strange coming from the two new items. He held the two items in his two hands and saw that they were glowing, glowing rather brightly. Suddenly the two items glowed so bright that Davis was forced to close his eyes.
When he opened his eyes, he found that the two charms were now attached to the ends of two very giant keys. The one that had Kari's charm on it, was a white key that had an angelic appearance to it. The one with the crown charm was a black key had a demonic look. As he held the two keys in his hand, he suddenly felt a strange filling of energy flowing through him. He suddenly had a flood of thought entering his mind, he suddenly knew what to do with them. "HEY!! I SAID GET AWAY FROM HER!!" He ran towards them and slashed at them with the two keys. As he struck them with a few hits, they disappeared in black smoke.
Kari looked at Davis in shock. "Davis? But...how?"
Davis then saw some of the stray ones trying to run away, and some others actually flew. "Annoying little..." Davis chased them, managing to hack down a stray. He watched as they all scattered, as if the sight of the giant keys made them run in panic. "Oh no you don't." Davis ran towards the runners and managed to catch up to them. Davis attacked them, getting in the middle of them all, followed by Davis generating three orbs of energy that surrounded him, exploded, and destroyed the monsters. When the smoke cleared, Davis looked at his weapons. "How did I know to do that?" He then quickly looked up, watching the flying monsters. "Don't think I forgot about you." He then threw his two keys at them, watching them spin as they closed in on their target. Once the keys made contact with the monsters, they suddenly began to rapidly hurl in unnatural directions, cutting the monsters down. The keys then flew back to him and he easily caught them. "How? How did I know that they would do that?" Davis looked over to Kari. "Are you ok?"
Kari stared at the two large keys that Davis was holding. "What are those? Why is my charm attached to that one?"
Davis looked at the keys again himself. After staring at them for some time, he suddenly had one word run through his mind, just one. "Key...blade."
"What?" Kari looked to Davis.
"Keyblade." Davis said again, but louder for Kari to hear. "They're called Keyblades."
"But how...how do you that? How did you do all those things?" Kari asked.
"I..." Davis looked at the weapons once more. "I don't know. I don't even know why I have these." Another explosion in the distance drew their attention. "We can talk about this later. We gotta keep running." Kari nodded in agreement and the two ran off, trying to find some shelter from all this destruction.
"Where are we gonna go?" Kari asked.
"I don't know." Davis answered. "But we need to get away from here, somewhere safe."
There you go, Chapter One. If any of you are Kamen Rider Fans, can you see the tie it has to Decade? Don't worry too much though, it won't follow the series word for word, it'll only have small elements. There's gonna be some more detail about the plot in the next chapter, but you'll have to wait for it to know what it is.
Please give a review on this story. Depending on what you say, I might keep going with this.
