Hello. My Pokémon fans are probably going to get mad at me for making this story, but I couldn't resist. This is my Kingdom Hearts story, and I hope you like it. Just a fair warning, I won't be updating this story much because I need to focus on my other one a bit more, but I will be uploading. Also, I recommend going to my profile if you really understand my description of the "circular platforms." I have pictures there.
Anyway, enjoy.
'I feel like I'm falling….. Falling….. Huh?'
I felt myself shift so now I feel like I'm standing, which feels pretty weird, almost as if I was flying. Even though it was hard, I slowly opened my eyes and that's when I noticed two things that were majorly wrong. First, I actually am falling, but rather slowly. Second, I'm falling towards a small speck of light.
Before I can question anything else, like how I got here or where I was, I noticed the light was getting larger, and it started to take shape. The closer I got, the more detailed it seemed. After a few more feet, I realized it was a circular platform.
It was colored blue; dark blue around the edge of the platform and light blue and green outlining the inner circle. On the bottom left side of the platform had a woman with blue hair, a black and blue, high-collared halter top, two pink, intersecting belts over her chest, and black shorts. Where the intersecting straps are located is odd silver badge. On her arms are white bell-sleeves and tan, fingerless gloves. She also wears a small, segmented piece of armor on each of her upper arms. This lady also bears two strips of blue cloth that drape over either side of her hips, along with a smaller, white strip of cloth tied around her waist, draped in the same way. Finally, she wears pointed, armored, silver boots with a sharp "hook" on the outer side of each.
Slightly to the right of her and a little more upwards were six more circles. Two of them were blue; one was orange, and the other's light green, however, all of them have a star-shaped pendant inside. The other two circles had faces inside. The face with the light green background was a picture of a boy with spiky blond hair, and he had his eyes closed and head down. The other face with the orange background had dark brown hair, sapphire eyes, and a black shirt. He also had this worried glare look, which kind of worried me.
As I got closer to the platform and to the faces, I had this weird feeling in my stomach, as I knew these people, especially the young man, and they make me happy. But…I don't know them. I've never seen them in my life.
Finally, when I made my landing, three different objects flashed in front of me; the one to my left was a staff, like the ones magicians use. The one on my right was a black and red shield with the insignia of a mouse on the front. And finally, the object directly in front of me was a sword with a yellow handle.
'Okay,' I thought to myself, 'I'm dreaming.'
I walked up towards the sword, and a voice said to me, "The power of a warrior. Invincible power. A sword of terrible destruction. Is this the power you seek?"
I looked around to find the owner of the voice, but I was all by myself.
'Yup, defiantly dreaming.' I thought.
I looked at the sword again, and I had this small feeling of desire for it and I thought, 'Invincible power… power of a warrior.'
Since me getting bullied three times a day is normal, this sounds like a pretty good deal. I took the sword in my hand, but nothing happened. No fancy explosions or boost of strength. I felt the same, which is pretty sad.
I shook my head and I noticed something that most people will refer to as a 'problem'. The staff and the shield suddenly disappeared, and in their places stood two black little…things. I mean, to be truthful, they were actually pretty adorable. Both looked the same; both had circular heads, yellow glowing eyes, two long twisted antennas on their heads, three-fingered claws, and they were completely black.
I would've hugged one, except for two small problems. First, I had this strange fear of them, like almost traumatizing fear, and secondly, one of them tried to claw my face off.
I managed to jump away easily, but they came at me again. I dodged and dodged, but they always came back. My fear level was rising, and before I could go into shock, I did the natural thing. As one of them jumped, I swung the sword I still had in my hands as hard as I could. As soon as the sword touched the creature, it dissolved into smoke. Before I could regain back my senses, the other one attacked. I swiped my sword, and that one dissolved as well.
I looked around, hoping there weren't any more and hoping I could wake up from this dream already. Suddenly, a stairway appeared to my left. It was smooth, but it curved upwards. From my end it was still blue, but as it went higher, the color got lighter, and it became green. I looked around again, and I decided to go up the path because personally, I don't feel like fighting those creatures again.
I ran as fast as I could, and luckily for me, I made it to the second platform. Compared to the first platform I was on, this second one was a lot more cheery to say the least.
The edge of the platform is light green, and the inside is darker with white designs on them. On the right side of the platform was the blonde haired boy. His face looked completely the same, right down to where he had his head down. His attire was beyond strange; his jacket is half white and half black, making seem like a Yin-and-Yang thing. The collar of the jacket is red and pleated; and he's wearing what appears to be a grey vest with a single button and several white, angular patterns on it. He wears a third layer under this, in the form of a plain, high-necked, black shirt. He also has a chunk of dull green and grey armor on his midsection that appears to be under his vest, and another piece of armor on his left shoulder. His pants seem like caprice pants and are colored in shades of grey, black, and white. He also wears an ornate, dull green and grey piece of armor on his upper-left arm, along with a black and white checkered wristband. Similar to the blue haired girl, he has black two crisscrossed straps against his chest along with the odd silver medal where the straps intersect. His shoes seemed to be armored version of regular shoes. He is also wielding a weird Key shaped weapon. He seemed to be in a mix between sleeping and leaning against the side of the platform. And he's holding his weapon in a weird way, as if he was holding the weapon backwards.
Beside his body and a little more upwards was a large circle, and in it had seven smaller circles. Six of the circles seemed to be surrounding one circle, and the six were in a patter on blue and orange. The one circle in the middle is just green. And all have the same star pendant on them. Below the boy seemed to be a desert place, with mountains.
I walked over towards the boy's face to get a better view of him. From what I see, he seems young, about two years older than me. And the more I thought about it, the more it seems like he's sleeping.
Suddenly, I felt something behind me. I pulled the sword in front of me and prepared for an attack, but it never came. Instead, a large door stood in front of me. It was beautiful—if you can call a door that.
It was about eight feet high, and it seemed to be made of Oak wood. It was one of those doors you see at a mansion. The edges of the door were colored pale pink, and at the top was a stain glass image of what seems to be a crescent moon. The handles were surrounded by gold designs that spread in the direction the door moves in.
The same voice as I heard before spoke out, "The door has opened. It has yet to be closed. You must decide. Do you want to continue on with your journey? Or do you wish to stay here?"
Okay, creepy voice is at it again, making me choose between one thing or the other. Hmm…to be truthful, I'd rather stay put and risk the darkness creatures. But when I turned to look at the boys sleeping face, I felt a tug in my chest. I knew what I had to do.
What was my journey exactly? I had no clue, but it looks like I'm about to find out.
As I walked towards the door, the voice echoed out, "Be careful. Beyond this door lies a completely different world. But don't be afraid."
'Thanks for the good advice, Creepy Voice.' I thought back sarcastically.
I stopped walking towards it, and the voice seemed to sigh at me, "Don't stop walking…"
I giggled a bit and rolled my eyes. I decided to have one last look of the place, and my eyes lingered on the boy. I placed a small smile on my face and continued walking towards the door. As soon as I placed my hands on the door, it opened, but the other side just showed the same platform.
I walked through it and I thought bitterly, "Wow, tricked by the Creepy Voice. What's next? This platform crumbling away?"
And of course, that's exactly what happened next. The ground started shaking rather violently. I cursed and turned around to see the platform shattering and falling.
"Just great."
Then, I fell along with the shattered pieces of the platform. At first, it seemed like I was diving at seventy mile per hour towards an endless abyss, but then I started to slow down. I noticed that I was diving head first into another platform. Big surprise there.
I slowed down, so now I was falling gently. I flipped myself so now I was standing. As I got closer, the details of the platform began to show, and I felt my heart beat way too fast for my own good.
The edge of the platform was bright orange, and the inside had an orange and white design. The guy on the platform was a young man, the same man who was in that girl's platform. He looks the same, except he exchanged the worried look for a brooding look.
He was glaring straight ahead, his sapphire eyes and with his right hand he held that weird key shaped weapon, but his seems more metallic that the other ones I saw and he seems to be leaning on it.
He's wearing a skin-tight, black, high-collared shirt, showing that he is rather muscular and his pants are a hakama –which are traditional samurai pants distinguished by the large pleats. His belt is tied like an obi-sash. His hakama are dark grey near the top, with several loops for his belt and two buttons, both of which are undone. The rest of the pants are tan with a small, lighter stripe of tan on the bottom and he has dark brown and gold armored boots. He's also wearing a plain black wristband on his right arm and he's wearing amour on his left arm that reaches from his shoulder all the way to the to the bottom of his hand. His intersecting straps are like the other two, except his are red and seem more like crisscrossed suspenders. Also, instead of the other two people I've seen, his medal is gold and he doesn't hear it on his straps, but on his obi-sash.
When I saw the man's face, a tear streaked down my face. I felt myself wanting to cry, as if he was dead and I was mourning at his grave. But why? I don't know him.
Sure, he looks like me. We have the same colored skin and same face shape, but everything else is different. My hair is black and it reaches midback and I have edgy bangs to cover my stormy grey eyes. But the longer I looked at him, the more I felt the need to mourn.
To the left of his body was a dark orange circle, and inside that circle were seven more mini circles. Three of them were orange, one was green, one was blue and they all had the star pendent in them. The other two showed the faces of the blonde boy and the girl. Now that I'm seeing more details, I noticed that the girl's eyes are also sapphire blue, like her hair. The blonde boy is finally awake in this platform, and he appears to be screaming something and his eyes were blue as well. He and the girl were looking in the direction of where the young man is glaring.
Underneath the man and the circles was a castle. It was beautiful, and majestic. It was mostly colored white, but it has some colors and the castle seemed kind of… lopsided.
I landed gently and looked around, waiting for something big and dangerous to happen. Nothing seemed to happen at first, but before I could get comfortable, another voice spoke out to me. It wasn't the usual voice making me choose between this and that; this voice is much different, deeper and distinct and….familiar.
The Voice said to me, "Your time here is at an end."
I don't know why, but the waterworks started and I felt myself trying to fight back tears. I blinked them away and looked around. I expected to find nobody, but again, I was proven wrong. Behind me was the young man with dark brown hair.
He was transparent, almost like a ghost. He grinned at me and walked towards me. I've never been afraid of ghosts in my entire life, but something about this guy scared me senseless. When he was just a few feet away from me, I couldn't help but take a step back.
The man raised an eyebrow and asked, "You do remember me, right?"
The tone in his voice was light, as if he was messing around with me. My head jolted in pain, and I dropped my sword to hold my head. The man tried to grab me, but he seemed to forget that he wasn't physical, so his hand went straight through me. The pain subsided, but the feeling of sadness and desire filled its place. I looked up at the man, who was a good five inches taller than me, and I tried hard to keep the tears inside.
'Why am I crying damn it?!' I thought to myself.
I shook my head and replied, "Sorry…"
He didn't seem surprised or shocked. He simply nodded while keeping the grin on. He replied, "Yeah, I figured."
He then looked at me from head to toes. Before I could react to that he said, "You've gotten so tall…."
"I'm sorry, "I replied in a thick voice, "But who are you?"
The man smirked at me, "I'm a person from your past, present, and future."
"That explains a lot." I blurted out.
I wish I didn't say that, because as soon as I did, I covered my mouth with my hands. I expected him to get mad at me or something, but he just smiled instead.
He chuckled, "I see you still have your sarcastic side."
I looked at him straight in the eyes, and happiness seemed to fill them, but something else as well….was it guilt?
I shook that thought away and asked again, "Please. Jokes aside, who are you?"
However, the man winked at me, "Well, you used to call me Bear."
"But that's the thing, "I retorted, "I don't remember that. And I don't know you."
Suddenly, what felt like a mini earthquake happened. I looked at the man and he was giving me a sad smile. His reply was, "Your journey begins today."
The next thing I knew, everything disappeared in a swirl of colors and the sound of a thunder exploding in my ears.
