I don't own Kingdom Hearts, Disney, Final Fantasy, or anything Anime, Square Enix, or anything, but maybe someday. So here's Chapter 1 of my newest fanfic. Don't worry for those following my DBZ fic I'll continue updating that too and maybe give a few oneshots here and there.

Chapter 1: The Beginning

"I can't believe that you're doing this…" A freshman in high school, Zane Brants was a slim scarred boy with dark brown hair, a t-shirt, worn jeans and black sneakers, "We've been friends since we were five…" The girl next to him had a cruel expression on her face.

"So what? I need to have better friends," This girl was also a freshman by the name of Michelle Neason. She was blonde with a semi-long skirt on and a t-shirt that read Lady Gaga on it with flipflops on. "How can I be friends with you? You have no popularity." Zane's head hung low when he heard that.

"Bitch…" Michelle slapped Zane across the face but he laughed instead of frowning. "You're just like the rest… Bitch…" Zane walked off with his hands in his pockets. Truthfully, he was hurt by his former best friend's new found hatred for him.

"You knew this was coming, you fucking loser…" She yelled after him before walking off to a car.

Zane was one of the least popular kids in school for some reason or another. He got good grades, he was good at sports, but had few friends. The boy sighed with some tears slowly flowing from his eyes.

"My my my Zane, such Callous words to a lady," Zane walked past a man with a black cloak on with the arms ripped off and the hood down. The man's face was a dark tan with a long scar going across his eyes and nose. His hair was long and grew slightly over his eyes in the back and was predominantly black with very noticeable stubble on his jaw. His voice was gruff and dark with a hint of sarcasm in it "Did you get abandoned by her?" He sneered as Zane walked off.

"What of it? She doesn't care about me," The man walked up behind him and grasped his shoulder. Zane stopped long enough to now see the man in front of him.

"Give me one year and I'll return to help you. Just say my name and I will appear." Zane stopped in his tracks.

"One year?" He thought it over in his mind for a moment. "Fine. One year and no less," He turned around, tears in his eyes.

"Make her pay," The man held out his hand and Zane proudly shook it, "What's your name?"

"My name is Sirius... Brother..." He waved goodbye before walking off around the corner into the oncoming crowds.

Far away from Earth...

In a dark room only lit by the stars above seven figures sat in thrones made of black stone. Sirius walked in and kneeled down.

"My lords a new pawn is on your chess board" His head was lowered and he shook out of fear.

"Good maybe now our plans may come to fruition. It's almost as simple as playing Chess." One man said with an English accent that was nearly a whisper.

"Do we really have to use his boy?" Another man said. His voice was strong and dark.

"Of course we have to. He's the only other person that wields that one blade…" This voice was lighthearted and had a touch of deadly beauty to it.

"My daughter is right. With him and that blade, we can achieve our goal." Another woman's voice resounded in the room. It was full of power and a slight kindness.

"Can we not just go to that world and awaken them ourselves?" This voice was deep and booming with refinement.

"No we must have him…" Another booming voice resounded in the room.

"Silence…" This voice was filled with hatred and pure darkness. "We must allow him to gain that blade or else our plans are all for naught…" Sirius left the room still shaking out of fear.

One Year later…

Zane walked down the hall of his high school in Manhattan, with his bag slung over his shoulder. Beside him was a boy who was a year older then him with blonde hair that went down to his chin. His hands were behind his head without a care in the world.

"You know Zane; it is surprising that you got a D for once. I mean you escaped getting straight F's for once." The boy said in a happy voice. He wore a sleeveless shirt and a pair of jeans with white sneakers.

"I did well for once. I'm shocked…" Zane said sarcastically to his friend. "Vaan, this shows you even losers can better themselves." Zane smirked and headed into a classroom that read Ms. Felix. He sat down with Vaan near the window as the bell rang. Zane watched outside as students ran inside. On that day storm clouds rolled in and quickly it began to rain with the sound of thunder rumbling in the sky. The teacher began talking about an English report and Zane zoned out to watch the rain.

"Wonder what it's gonna do later today," His mind slowly floated around from everything in his life. His father's mysterious disappearance, the loss of his best friend, and of course his failing grades.

"Dunno, but gotta look on the bright side Zane," Zane raised his eyebrow a little, "It's Friday and in a few days we're off on a field trip!" A smirk rose on the first boys face.

"Got a good point man!" Zane looked at the entire class in a glance then saw Michelle out of the corner of his eye with her new boyfriend and entire group giggling about something. Vaan had turned his attention back to the board while Zane had gone back to his thoughts, "...Sirius..." He whispered to himself thinking about the deal he had made last year.

"Mr. Brants can you please answer the question!" Ms. Felix loomed over the boy's desk with a scowl covering her face.

"I'm sorry, what was the question again?" The class started snickering, but there was a small clap coming from the door. The class looked and saw Sirius standing there smirking.

"You know kid, you should be a little nicer." He took a seat at the teacher's desk slightly mocking her movements, "Now what is it you need me to do again Zane? Was it kill some broad for you or what?" Zane's eyes gleamed with enthusiasm. The class meanwhile got a little frightened. This man had come out of nowhere and now he was planning on killing someone. Vaan stood up from his desk very quickly and tried to tackle the now standing man, but was kicked right in the jaw.

"Man oh man kids these days are really feisty. So brother, which girl is it?" Vaan was knocked out now and the storm outside had progressively gotten worse. Zane now had a small dark purple aura glowing around him.

"Michelle Neason is her name and she's sitting in the back," Michelle shrunk down in her desk a little scared then she got up some courage.

"Zane what is he talking about? You wouldn't actually have someone kill me would you?" She chuckled nervously while silence fell on the class. Her boyfriend stood up and tried charging Zane. He was caught by a clothesline thanks to Sirius.

"Come on is that the best my brother's class has to offer for a fight?" He went back to the desk.

"I'm going to die here," She slowly got up then walked to Zane where she slapped him, "Why?"

"You abandoned me," He walked near his 'Brother' smiling a sadistic smile.

"So you want me to help you by taking care of her? Interesting, to say the least." He walked up and started drawing a heart, then lines to a bunch of different circles.

"What are you doing Sirius?" Zane and Michelle watched the enigmatic man in the cloak.

"This is a body with many different parts and at the center is a heart," Everybody in class was stunned and confused by what was happening. Michelle was scared, Zane was going crazy and Vaan was still knocked out, "Now I will send you to this part of the body." He pointed towards the lowest part of his diagram. "So Zane, Michelle do you have everything you need to go?" Sirius sat down in front of the teacher.

"Go where?" Zane's curiosity piqued.

"Midnight City of course," He started laughing and wiped a tear from his eye, "It's actually pretty funny to see this happen."

"I thought you would help me take care of her." Zane pointed towards Michelle again. She staggered back into a desk where Zane soon followed while losing the dark aura around his body.

"Why would you try to kill me!" She finally snapped and began slapping him with every ounce of strength, "YOU'RE AN ASSHOLE!" Michelle cried and screamed at the same time.

"Enough my warring couple. Now is the time when you enter the outside world and get on the path to The Heart of All Worlds… Kingdom Hearts." He held out his hand and a cloud of swirling black and purple darkness appeared in the middle of the classroom.

"What are you?…" Zane stepped back from Sirius as did the rest of the people in the classroom.

"A simple Keyblade Wielder that uses darkness. I'm human for the most part. Now, get going before I summon Rain's Might." Zane walked into the darkness scared out of his mind. "Now his woman is next."

"WHAT? I'm not his woman he's disgusting and a loser." She sat back down in her seat. Sirius snapped his fingers and out of two more of those swirling clouds appeared with two men stepping out of it. They grabbed her and threw her in the first swirling cloud of darkness, "And so begins my master's plans…"

In Zane's mind...

Zane fell through darkness with his eyes closed not knowing whether or not he was dreaming. He saw his memories fly past him. His father's face, his mother and little brother, Michelle, Vaan, and then the face of a beautiful blonde woman with a gentle smile and tear on her face.

"Your journey begins here... don't ever forget your light is nearer then you think," She told him before dissipating in a shower of light that soon turned into stars.
