Hey everyone! It's my first story actually published so I hope you like it. I DO NOT own any Kingdom Hearts characters, or content. It's all Tetsuya Nomura and Square-Enix. So…. Yeah… enjoy!

"I can't believe how long I've been here," says Aqua as she walked along the shores of the Realm of Darkness. She still wonders alone, unaware that it's been thirteen years since she placed Ventus in his resting place inside Castle Oblivion and saved Terra from being lost to the darkness. Her wayfinder has lost its glow, its light… The only light that had kept her going this long. When she sat down to rest, she rose her knees to chest and hugged them close. Looking out at the dark water and the bright silver moon at the distance, she began to recall her time when she and Terra first met.

[Flashback yays]

In Land of Departure, the bell of the castle began to ring as a visitor approached the castle. Master Eraqus held out a hand to his young pupil as a sign to stop their current train. As he walked towards the front doors, his twelve year old pupil watched from the balcony of the main room, or indoor training area. Eraqus opened the door to a young girl with long braided hair, in her right hand a keyblade and her body looked beat up, her clothes, a white blood stained tank top and a shot shirt, were ripped and torn to hell.

"Goodness Child what has cause you this much torment," asks Eraqus as he picks up the girl and carries her in. The girl held on and passed out in the Master's arm. "Terra, get a room set up for this young lady." Without hesitating or questions Terra did as he was told. He goes to an empty guest room and begins changes the bed sheets to fresh one, and sets a bowl of warm water with a rag hanging from it. Eraqus approached the room and laid the unconscious girl in bed and tucked her in.

Terra looked up at his Master. "Master, are we gonna take her in," he asked with a worried expression on his face. Eraqus smiled and ruffled his pupil's brown hair making him grin. For some reason, that always seemed to make Terra feel a bit better even if it was a little.

"Of course Terra," replied Eraqus with a gentle smile, "she needs our help now and seems like she has no where else to go."

"Is she gonna train with me? She has a keyblade too," Terra eagerly said with a smile on his face. Eraqus chuckled a bit then looked at the girl.

"Well it's her choice Terra," he says, "just like it was your choice when your received your keyblade. We'll see when she wakes ok?" Terra nodded with his grin still on his face. Eraqus goes to the kitchen to make lunch since Terra can't cook worth shit. Bake and Bar-B-Que is his forte when it comes to any form of cooking.

Terra sat on the edge of the bed watching girl sleep. He then noticed her cuts and scraps. 'She must've gone through a lot getting here' he thought grabbing a damped towel from the bowl of water that he had set up earlier. He slowly removed the covers and began wiping away the dried up blood. He then noticed a letter for Master Eraqus. The brunette placed the letter to the side and continues cleaning the sleeping girl. Once finished, he proceeded to deliver the letter to Master Eraqus, who was setting up the table for lunch.

Terra approached him handing over the letter. "Master, I was cleaning her wounds and I found this. I'm sorry I took it but seemed important." Eraqus nods and takes the letter and opens it.

"Dear Eraqus, She's destined to do great things. The light has granted her a keyblade for a reason. Sorry we couldn't go with her but our world is falling into darkness, please look into this. I hope you can take her in… I only wish I could-" There it stopped due to bloodstains on the paper. Eraqus frowned and sighed sadly as he starts walking towards the girl's room. Terra looked at the letter and notices and barely readable last sentence. "Take care of my Aqua-" Terra looked sad and rushed to his Master's side.

Upon arriving they see the girl sitting up looking around out the window. Eraqus looked relieved and approached her. She turned her head to see them and smiles gently. Terra nodded making the girl smile and wave a little bit.

"Are you Aqua," asked Master Eraqus as he sat down on the edge of the bed. The girl, Aqua, nodded and he continued, "My name is Master Eraqus and the young man over there is Terra Yokete."

"Nice to meet ya," smiled Terra. Aqua blushed light

"You too Terra," she replied then looked at Eraqus, "Master, did you get my mom's letter?" Eraqus gave a small nod.

"I'll happily take you in," says the Master. Aqua smiles and hugs him in relief.

"Thank you so much," cheered Aqua. Terra cheered as well and goes to her taking her hand.

"You want a tour," says Terra holding her hand causing the Aqua to blush. Aqua looked at Eraqus who replied to Terra's question with a small smile and nod, then got out of bed and went with Terra. Eraqus watched them run off and chuckled lightly then looked outside.

"Your not alone," he says softly, "neither of you two have to be alone anymore…"

Aqua tears and gets up from the shores dusting off the sand on her shorts and legs. She looked at her dull wayfinder and grinned.

"Terra," she says softly, "I won't give up on you… or on myself. When I return to the Realm of Light, I'll find you and tell you how I really feel…"

There you have it. *chuckles* crappy ending but it'll get better I promise.
