Kingdom Hearts
...Truth behind a heart
"Heartless, mindless drones created by hearts. Nobodies, formed from the empty vessels whose heart was taken by the heartless. When both are reunited, the true form of the individual shall appear... but since a Nobody can form his own heart, what becomes of their real heart?" – D-Report 2
Prologue – Warm greetings and sweet tea
It was a warm summer's breeze that swept through the town of radiance, birds flutter and tweet there song as they pass by the joys and harmony of the people bellow. The residence of this great land help each other to rebuild their lives after its history, Radiant Garden has shined its light, casting off the darkness that once loomed over its land.
The warm glow of the sun shines over the tall structures of homes, flickers of rainbow reflect off a cool refreshing fountain as the water spouts and casts a mist over a family of three. Across the fountain stands the immense delight of Mrs. Potts cafe, a place of warm greetings and cosy chairs where visitors can enjoy a warm beverage and the sweet taste of her treats. As a regular customer for Mrs. Potts delights, Maia A delightful and vibrant girl of sixteen sits comfortably and stares into her last drops of tea. A girl of luscious violet hair and flowing black dress of vivid and strange designs lets out a sigh after her lips savour the last taste of her sweet tea. Maia has a fondness of sweet tantalising delights and was saddened that her tea was all gone.
She slumped on the glass table, her head nestled on her folded arms and her soft hair curled on her shoulders, she starred her blue glistening eyes onto her empty cup... but suddenly in the corner of her eye she glanced, a shadow among the cluster being casted of by the populace briefly caught her attention as it disappeared into the crowed. With her attention now firmly on finding this glimpse of shadow she stood up with a sudden move while clanking her chair as she rose. The sudden sounds and movement caught the brief attention of other patrons but soon continued their interest into their tea and biscuits.
Maia stood firm and tall, the sun reflecting on her violet and black palindrome that rests on her right shoulder and glistens on her shaded dress as the mist of vapour nestles onto the fabric. She takes a stance with her dark blue laced boots firmly on the ground, her hand twitches as an object approaches, but the firm glare on her beautiful face soon melts into a smile as she gleefully waves and jumps for joy at the sight of an old dear friend.
A blue jay, no smaller than the palm of her hand glides towards Maia as she reaches out with a stretch of her left finger. The blue jay with a shade of golden yellow feathers perched on Maia's finger and began to tweet as the young girl smiled with her pearly white teeth, "why hello there Azure" she giggled "what brings you out here, have you come to join me for tea" she hoped.
Maia's attention soon grasped on the ring that's securely adorned around Azure's leg, and wrapped around the ring was a piece of small paper. With her face beaming with joy slowly turning to a calm composure, she reached out to the paper with her other hand and removed it from Azure's leg. As she unravelled the paper, a crimson pentagram shone into her eyes as she was slowly lost in thought, it was magic, Words faded into Maia's mind and then faded away. She stared at Azure as she began to focus back into the world around her, and she nodded a gesture that showed she understood what must be done. With a flick of her wrist, she summoned a magic piece of paper of her own and spoke in a stern voice towards her own pentagram "mission acknowledged".
With her own message attached to Azure's ringed leg, she let the bird fly off into blue clear sky, Maia watched her friend slowly disappear with a small smile on her face knowing that she will see him again. Maia began to slowly stroll towards the fountain as she contemplates about the message Azure brought "reports of small bands of heartless in Deep Jungle" it had read. At the fountain Maia reached into her back pocket and grabbed a small amount of Munny clenched tightly in her hand, as she unravelled her hand she tilted it to allow the Munny to roll and drop into the fountain. She stared at her rippled reflection and thought of her parents and a promise she made long ago.
With her mind at ease and with a calming sigh she looked forward and gestured her hand across her palindrome, a bright light of magic enveloped her and adorned her with glistening black armour with purple trim covering her body from head to toe. Reflections of onlookers in the visor of her helmet gasp in awe in the spectacle they have just witnessed, Maia just stood perfectly still as she reached forward with her right hand and griped as if she was holding something. Another white flash of light sprang forth from her hand as a weapon of sorts appeared in her grip. It was an oddly shaped curved blade with a broken chain at the hilt, spectators gasped and whispered to each other "a Keyblade" "it's a Keyblade", inside her helmet Maia smiled as she enjoyed the attention she was attracting and she was just getting started.
Maia threw the blade into the air as the spectators stood in silent as they wondered what would happen next. In mid flight, the blade broke off from the handle and split into six perfect versions of itself and dived towards Maia, she stood perfectly still. Before the blades reached her they diverted and struck the ground behind her as the handle of the blade followed and gracefully attached itself to Maia's back, the six blades tilted its ends towards her and without warning they shot out the ground into the handle on her back. The crowd of people gasped as they had expected the worst, Maia just giggled as the six blades extended and form six beautiful metallic wings with shades of black and violet, without a moment's notice she soared into the sky with incredible speed. The crowd cheered at the spectacle until she was gone from their sight and all that remained was the six grooves in the ground were the blades struck.
In the sky Maia happily giggled with excitement from witnessing there expressions, she love to show off as much as she love to fly with the feeling of the wind gush past her and the incredible sights below her. With a happy bounce in her voice she screamed "here I come Deep Jungle" as she soared towards a portal of purple and blue energy.
Back in Radiant Garden not far from Mrs. Potts cafe, down an ally hidden in shadow an object began to form and took the shape of a small creature of darkness, a heartless with golden hollow eyes had seen the entire event.
