Kingdom Hearts: The Untold Shard

Chapter One:

The Beginning Retold

Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, Kingdom Hearts: Chain of Memories, or Kingdom Hearts II. I love them to death, but I DO NOT OWN THEM, their characters, anything. I am also not looking to make any money off of this FanFiction. It's just for my pleasure and, hopefully, yours. Plus, it may contain spoilers. I dunno.

OH! And I don't own or anything PlayStation2 or Sansa Mp3s.

We all know the story of Sora, Riku, Kairi, Donald, Goofy, King Mickey…the works. How Sora's the Keyblade Master, how Donald and Goofy and other friends have helped him along in his seemingly endless quests.

But what if the story writers created one more part to the story? A part they decided not to tell us about, because it might make the games a little long. A part about someone from our world getting pulled into theirs…

"Mom! I hope I don't have anything set down for today!" A young girl of about fourteen called upstairs to her mother the second she got home. Her long, wavy brown hair was tied into a ponytail on the back of her head, and she flipped it out of her way as she dumped her backpack at the bottom of the wooden stairs and darted up them, taking them two at a time.

She heard a sigh come from the couch in the living room. "No, dear. No Pathfinders, no nothing. Any homework?"

The girl snorted. "Please, Mom, the semester just started. Only Socials and Math ever give you homework, and you never get any on the first day," she replied casually, taking her Sansa Mp3 out of the pocket of her camouflage sweatshirt and putting it on the table by the phone. She also unclipped her cell phone from the belt around her waist that was helping to hold up her jeans and, after turning it off, placed it beside the Mp3.

"Well, you never know," Was her mother's reply.

Smiling and rolling her eyes, the girl went back downstairs to the playroom and looked around in it after shutting the door behind her. Neither her brother nor sister was there, and she smiled. Her sister was probably off with her boyfriend; her brother was over at his friend's house. And that was the way she liked it. She could play her video games in peace. She was huge on role-playing and video games, and she'd even gotten some new ones for Christmas, including Super Mario Galaxy, The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass…no, wait, she'd bought that herself in November. And, there were two other games, one of which she'd just started.

She sighed contentedly as she turned on the PlayStation2 and settled down on the couch to watch the beginning stuff for the game. As soon as she could, she flicked down to the 'Load Game' option and chose the first (and only) file:

'Location: Traverse Town.'

"Man, I love these games," She murmured to herself as she chose the file. She had been able to save in the Accessory Shop of Traverse Town but, like the young boy of her age that she was playing in the game, Sora, she had hardly a clue what was going on, though she had seen a bit more than Sora had, like King Mickey's letter and what was kind of going on at Disney Castle. But still.

As she began to play again, killing some Heartless, watching some interesting cutscenes (and continually missing Donald and Goofy, to her utter annoyance), she finally got to the point where Donald and Goofy landed on Sora. She began to giggle, but stopped outright when she saw what they had to fight immediately after: Guard Armor. She knew this because her friend had told her the name of the first boss.

However, she was always up for a good challenge. But, good challenges needed food and drink. So, she set the controller aside and started to get up for some grape juice and some apple slices. As she got up off the couch and began to walk, she accidentally tripped over the cord that was attached to the controller, and fell towards the T.V.

Sora groaned outwardly. "Why do I have to fight this now? Weren't the Heartless enough?!" A thought struck him that maybe the strange armor was a Heartless. Well, no matter: He had to defeat it with the strange companions that had just fallen on him. Though, he wasn't looking forward to it; getting landed on by two relatively heavy characters wasn't so good for you.

The Keyblade swiftly reformed in his hand, and Sora began to charge forward towards the armor, holding the blade with two hands with the hilt at his right side, down near his middle. He was just getting ready to begin attacking its hands when…

BANG!

The sound startled Sora so much he immediately stopped and looked towards the source of the small explosion-like sound. It was like he was seeing everything in slow motion: The armor's hands spinning around like a whirlpool, the young girl falling from the sky with her back towards the armor…

He could almost hear the whacking sound of one of the armor's hands connecting with the girl, sending her flying straight into the wall. She smashed into it, and then crumpled into a heap on the ground, unmoving.

Furious at the armor for hurting the girl when, chances are, she was just like him in the way that she had little idea of where she was, why she was here, and how she got here, Sora released a roar from his lips and tore towards the armor, beating on it with the Keyblade with renewed vigor. After what seemed like hours, the armor finally disappeared, defeated.

Sora looked around, and he saw with some relief that Leon and Yuffie were standing at the top of one of the stairways, looking concerned and puzzled. "Guys, I need your help! Something's wrong!" He called to them, and then motioned for them to follow him as she ran over to the girl.

Moments after Sora reached her, the two characters that had fallen on him, as well as Leon and Yuffie, had joined him. Carefully, Yuffie took her in her arms and laid her down on the ground, so she wasn't partially leaning against the wall. Sora bit his lip slightly as Yuffie looked strained. "What's wrong?"

"Sora, she doesn't look too good…that must have really hurt her, especially if she's not used to fighting…" Yuffie started.

"I just started fighting!" Sora protested angrily. "I was randomly thrust into this world!"

"I never said you weren't, Sora. You just didn't enter it like she did," She explained softly, gently picking the girl up. "Come on, Leon; let's take her back to that house. We can care for her there." Yuffie started to walk off, but Sora stopped her.

"Is she going to be okay?"

She shook her head. "I can't say yet, Sora. We'll just have to wait and see. Don't worry, we'll see to it that she gets good help, I promise." She gave Sora a reassuring smile, then continued to carry the girl off. This time, Sora didn't stop her. Instead, he turned and looked at the three remaining people.

"…Aaand…you two might be..?"

And so it went from there. Sora didn't forget about the girl, but he never found a chance to go see how she was doing. After he woke up from his one-year nap, along with Jiminy, Donald, and Goofy, as well as after seeing Yen Sid, they continued on to Hollow Bastion, obviously the only place they could go at the moment. And there, they finally found Leon, Yuffie, Cid, and the rest of the gang, including Merlin…and the girl…

Author's Note: Reviews are loved, more chapters to come! Please, don't flame me, this is my first-ever FanFiction, though you can rightfully criticize my writing. And, if you see any spelling mistakes (this does not count for different U.S and Canadian spellings) or grammatical errors, please point them out to me. I am totally obsessed with that kind of stuff. Also, to be perfectly honest, I have never played the GBA or Japanese version of Chain of Memories, and I have yet to beat Kingdom Hearts II, sadly. Other than that, I hope you enjoyed my first chapter of Untold Shard! There'll definitely be more to come later! If you're interested, I'm also planning on starting FanFictions for Naruto, Pokemon, and other things, so if you're interested, keep an eye out for me in the future!
