Hello everyone. So I found a chapter I wrote even before the birth of Itsumo (Forever) on and it's a VERY IMPORTANT part of the story and I can't believe I forgot it! So after finding it and rewriting it, I decided to rewrite the entire story.
I know you may be upset for re-writing the story, but the original story is a bit rough and I'm pretty much throwing everything in the story that could make it dramatic. I wanted to write a story that was a little more realistic and all. I hope you all can for give me. And I hope you all can come to like the revised version.
But the show must go on, either way! Here's the first chappie of the newly revised, Itsumo (Forever).

Chapter 1: Prologue: Night Sky Sonata

"As far back as I can remember, I was seven years old and we lived on Destiny Isle and my great grandfather had died from a serious health problem. He had an enormous company in Twilight Town and an heir was needed to succeed the company. My father's father was too old to run the company and so it was decided that my father, Kazuya would be the next to take over the family company."
"Life after that became very hectic and stressful. My father worked day and night; I barely ever got to see him. I remember crying to myself at night, wishing that things would go back to the way things were before my dad inherited the company. Luckily I had my mother, Mikan there to comfort me in my time of need. Two years after my little sister Suri was born, it was decided that we were moving to Twilight Town."
"The night before our departure, I ran away from my home without anyone noticing, and I ran. I ran and ran till my lungs were about to burst. I cried silently, hating my father for making us move away from everything I had ever known or loved. Then, as I sat under a paopu tree along the beach, a soft but gentle melody echoed in the distance."
"It was a melody I had never heard before and it somehow comforted me and melted away all the anger from me. I suddenly wanted to go home and see my mom. Before leaving I looked into the distance where the music was playing and thanked the melody or the person who was playing it. After that I returned home."
"As I approached the house, there were cars all around the driveway and people running around shouting. Someone spotted me and shouted for my mother and people ran toward me. In her night gown and robe, my mother ran up to me and embraced me crying saying how worried she was. I cried with her saying how sorry I was. After that, we moved to Twilight Town and it was decided that I was the heir after my father to take over the family company."
"If I hadn't heard that melody, I would probably always hated my father. That single melody changed my life. And I wish I could've met the person who played that beautiful melody that I hold so dear in my heart."

Seven Years Later…

In the foggy morning a young boy groggily wakes up from his long night of sleep and sits up in his enormous bed. He is dressed in only pajama pants, with his chest exposed and he stretches and stands up opening his large window doors and he walks onto a balcony. A cool summer breeze ruffles his already disheveled dirty blonde hair. Looking toward the sunset he breaths in and exhales relaxed.
There is a knock on his door and a maid dressed in the usual black and white formal dress attire peeks in and sees the young man on the balcony.
"Excuse my intrusion sir, but you're mother requested I make sure that you a dressed and ready for orientation today." The maid bows respectively.
"Nah it's alright, I understand. I'll be ready within a half hour." The boy replies.
"Yes sir." The maid bows one more time and leaves the boy to himself. The boy sighs scratching his head a bit annoyed.
"Damn orientation…" He says tired.
A buzzing noise distracts him. He walks to his bedside stand and grabs his vibrating cell phone and opens it, seeing his mother calling. He picks it up.
"Good morning sweetie. Are you getting ready?"
"Yes mom, I was getting ready to get in the shower."
"Okay good. I had to leave early so could you ask the driver to drop Suri off at her ballet practice. Moe said she'd watch Suri till we come home."
"Yeah that's fine I will. I gotta let you go though mom."
"Alright I'll see you at orientation. Love you Roxas."
"Love you too mom." Roxas replies back to his mom.
Roxas presses the END button.
CHAPTER 1 END

A short and simple chapter. Yeah I know you all probably knew it was Roxas the whole time haha. Well it gave you a little more of a background about Roxas then the original story. I gotta say I like this approach to the story than the original. I'm such a fickle writer lol.
Well be sure to review and tell me how you like the story so far.
