I do not own Kingdom Hearts or any characters from it, they all belong to Square Enix. This is my first ever horror romance story with XemnasxAqua.. so please no flames .

Chapter 1: Discovery of the Blue Maiden

Namine was only just a lonely quiet servant but pretty girl, always sent to the nearest graveyard in the middle of the night on a daily basis to collect nettle for further black magic purposes that the Savage Nymph (or bitchiest vixen, as the more accurate term), Larxene demanded. The full moon that shone over the eerie graveyard had lost its awful effect on her throughout the rest of her years growing up, for she had actually… felt comfortable in its cold silence that the sleeping dead six feet below her feet offered her. She wasn't exactly here to vandalize their graves, so why should they attack her? Heck, the ghosts actually preferred this gentle maiden's presence over that stupid high strung magician herself (plus, for the male perverted locals, she was younger and fits their taste of beauty even more than that stupid rude idiot).

She sighed as she walked to the nearest ominous gravestone to pluck the largest prickly plant from its roots, cringing slightly as the tiny needles stabbed into the delicate flesh of her hands. Fortunately, the young girl had gotten used to that as the years flew by. As a young witch herself, she also acknowledged the use that this green organism offers in terms of magic, so she won't complain as she usually does.

However, poor Namine struggled with all her frail strength to pull out the reluctant nettle as it stubbornly remains rooted to the ground. The teenage girl even grunted as she even used the strength in her tired legs to help in the process of pulling, regretting that she should've brought a shovel along with her to ease this surprisingly difficult task of removing this plant that absolutely refused to budge from its place.

Before the poor girl could notice though, she was already standing on her numb feet at an awkward angle, with arms fully stretched out as she almost successfully won the battle against this unwilling opponent. She gave out a cry of surprise and joy as she finally found victory in getting herself almost enough supply to satisfy the screechy woman, but failed to catch her footing as she found herself falling into the nearby freshly dug hole made for the newest occupant to join the community of the dead.

Namine winced in pain as she found herself landing back first into something rigid, knowing that she probably disturbed the newest member of this churchyard, and perhaps she might be punished by the spirit inside soon. She apologized softly as she painfully rolled herself off to the side, to only find that the coffin nails weren't even nailed in. Curiosity killed the cat as the witch couldn't help but lift the lid, feeling the relief of the itchy plant leaving her slightly bleeding hands to peek at the occupant inside.

The blonde servant gave out a surprised but quiet gasp as she accidently lets go of the lid, unknowingly letting it slide off the casket completely. Inside the coffin lay a young beautiful maiden not much older than her with short blue hair that framed her heart shaped face perfectly, with plump pink lips that somehow gave Namine the feeling that this girl would always tilt the corners upwards, no matter how agonizing the situation is. The maiden's pale skin also glowed as the moonlight shone on it, illuminating it to enhance her mystifying beauty further more.

For some reason though, the recently deceased girl wasn't actually... dead. Whilst Namine was recovering from her discovery, the maiden groans lightly as she yawns and stretches after many uncomfortable hours of sleeping within the ominous box, her thick eye lashes batting against her cheekbones like butterfly wings. Also, the tight corset of the black funeral dress that she wore on her slim body certainly did not help with offering comfort to her sore body after the long journey of feeling the container rock around within the carriage as it brought her to this depressing location. Sadly though, her sudden awakening scared the younger girl near her, causing her to scream out very loud.

During the midst of all this surprising chaos for these two maidens, a certain silver haired man smirked as he clutched a certain star shaped object tighter in his gloved hand… smiling as he continued to watch the crystal ball to broadcast more of what's happening with the interaction between the young blue haired woman attempting to calmy explain her current situation to the younger blonde girl as she continued to panic…

A/N: I've never really shipped XemnasxAqua before... hell, I even thought he was ugly before. XD But thanks to me stalking the Terra Aqua forums within the KHInsider website, I ended up getting addicted to this couple as well, for it was a darker version of Terra Aqua with many years of longing and UST going on. Actually though, I didn't really get inspiration to write something like this until I read the awesome Kiome-Yasha's RokuNami fanfiction, Whispers in the Dark. Speaking of RokuNami, this story will surely be about these two as well... though they're more of a side couple with Xion being with Roxas at times... but you'll see some different interactions that will happen down the road of this story. ;) So stay tuned, and please leave a review if ya want to :D

Yep... this introduction is short, but I actually just read that other fanfiction recently, along with the fact that it suddenly gave me plot bunnies to write something like this. I did do a fanart of XemAqua on deviantart that may be part of a scene in here.. so check it out if you want. ;) Just remove the paranthess between.

For those of you that hate OCxCanon, don't worry, this story won't have any OCs in it... though speaking of which, I do apologize if I made any mistakes on the characterizations on any characters at all .
