All right. This isn't the best of my stories, but I wanted to write a KH story. Please review if you read it. Thank you everyone. I do not own KH or anything in the story, except Mei Saku.
Destiny Island. She grew up there. With my friends Riku, Sora, and Kairi. They were the best of friends. Everyone knows the story of Sora. The boy who wanted to save his friend Riku. Then there is Riku, the one who was swallowed by darkness. Everyone knows their story, but does anybody know hers'? Her name is Mei Saku, and this is my story.
A cold breeze danced through the island. Leaves twirled in the wind floating down to the ground. Star shaped fruit floated on the ocean. The ocean was a pinkish yellow, reflecting the sunset in the sky.
Mei ran down to the beach with Sora and Riku. They were racing just for the fun of it. Sora, you all know what Sora looks like. Back before he had the Keyblade, back before…. Everything. Riku, who was fastest of the three beat them at the sands' edge and chuckled to himself.
"You two are too slow, how do you expect to beat me?" He scoffed, but jokingly. He only wanted to irritate Sora.
"No fair Riku! But I'll totally beat you next time!" He blurted before running off to who knows where. Probably to find Kairi. Mei walked up to Riku who turned his back and gazed at the sparkling water. He said nothing, but she knew Riku. Him being quiet meant something was bothering him. Mei stood next to him saying nothing for a few seconds.
"Riku…." Mei paused. "Something is bothering you. I can tell. What is it?"
He gazed at her with his beautiful sapphire eyes.
"Darkness Mei. I can sense something coming…. Can I tell you something?" He put his hand on her shoulder and gave a serious expression. Riku looked over at the tree house he and Sora built and saw Sora and Kairi chatting.
"Of course Riku. You can trust me" Mei said, sensing something grave in his voice.
"I saw a man yesterday. A man in a brown cloak."
"A brown cloak?" She inquired
"Yes. Something was off about him. I could… sense something dark inside of him." Riku looked back at Sora then to Mei.
"Do not tell Sora. Okay?"
Mei nodded and promised by crossing her heart. Riku smiled and gave a tight hug. After that he ran off with Sora.
Darkness… and a man in a coat. Mei wasn't sure what he meant by that, but regardless, she trusted Riku. Although the thought gnawed on her till dark. The sun vanished, but the stars appeared, twinkling so bright.
Mei sat up on my tree house looking out my window at the stars. Riku told her that each star is a world. Does she believe him? She was unsure… It just seem kind of farfetched. Yet, if it is true it would great to go see them some day.
Crash!
"What was that?" Mei looked over at the beach overlook point. That's where Riku, Kairi, Sora, and Mei would hang out and were our famous Star Shaped fruit is planted. There stood Riku, looking over at the ocean. He then turned around and looked towards the bridge. Sora. There was Sora. He looked frantic and worried.
The girl was about to head down, but stopped when she saw a dark smoke surround Riku.
"Darkness!?" Mei said as she gasped and rushed down to where the two were. Once she reached the area Sora was right next to Riku, entangled in darkness. She couldn't hear what they were discussing, but by Sora's frantic expression couldn't be any good.
Riku looked at Mei faintly, but his expression was blank. Not like the Riku she knew. Something definitely was not right. Mei ran to Riku yelling his name, but to avail. A dark wave rushed through Sora and her pushing them away from Riku. Then a dark portal appeared behind Riku. He went inside saying nothing or attempting to help his friends.
"Ri…Ku…" Was all the Mei could say before being swallowed by darkness.
The next morning Mei woke up, but not in my tree house. It looked like a small room. It was made out of cobble and wood. Decorations consisted of swords, bows, and animal heads and hides. A fire crackled in the silent room, it looked like it was lit recently. On the far right of the room, next to the fireplace was and picture…. Well tapestry. One in particular caught her eye. It was a family. A man with a bulk build and red hair. Three younger ones, triplets it looked like. An older girl with long red, curly hair. In the middle was a woman with brown hair.
It was a well stitched design of a family. Mei stood up from the bed she was lying on and walked to the tapestry. Touching and feeling the craftsmanship of the art.
"Beautiful isn't it?" Said an unknown voice in the darkness beside the bed. Mei jumped up, startled, and looked at the stranger. He wore a black cloak and his face was hidden.
"Who are you?" Mei asked still unsure on what was going on.
"You may call me-" He removed his hood, revealing his face. The man was older and wrinkles could be seen. He had white hair, at least of what was left. His eyes though, which penetrated her skin and felt like it stared right through anyone's soul was a dark yellow.
"Xehanort."
"Xehanort… Nice to meet you. My name is-"
"Mei Saku" He interrupted. "My apologies, Riku told me about you dear."
"You know Riku! Where is he? Is he okay?" She pressed Xehanort ignoring how dangerous he could possibly be.
"Yes, I know Riku. He is…safe. So is Sora. As are you Mei. Thanks to me." He said taking quite a great pleasure in that. Mei thanked him and let her guard down. He seemed like a nice guy, I mean he saved her life and all.
"I'm sorry to keep asking questions, but… where am I?" Mei asked.
"You are in another world." He said waiting for a surprised expression to appear. Soon enough he got what he wished.
"Another world! Really!" Mei looked at the glass window and saw a green field that went on for miles then after it was a forest. Below were people. She couldn't quite make out what they looked like since they were so far below.
Mei was about to pry Xehanort for more questions when the door burst open. A teenage girl with messy, curly red hair appeared wearing a torn blue dress and a bow and quiver on her back. Behind her was a more elderly woman who had an upmost displeased look on her face. Her hair was brown, but had a streak of white in it.
"Merida! What have you done!"
