Well, this is the first chapter in my fanfiction experiment (read, I've never written a successful, submittable fanfiction until this point) so we'll see where it leads. I don't own Kingdom Hearts, or any of the characters contained therein, Square-Enix does.

The first time I was summoned was the first time I saw him. He stood upon the highest cliff in the mountains of Hollow Bastion, looking very much like he owned it. The way he gestured, the tone of his voice...everything about him spoke of power.

He was a Nobody like me, but he was the first, the best, and the strongest. He called himself "Xemnas", and he was the leader of all of us. Upon seeing him, I could do little more than stare in awe, and bow my head when his gaze fell upon me from his rocky perch. He called out to us, calling us his "kindred", and he told us that our time was coming. We would claim Kingdom Hearts, and reclaim what had been taken from us; our Hearts.

He sent us to every world within our reach. Every world that the Organization had breached, we went and carried out our mission. Our mission, as explained by Xemnas, was to destroy what Heartless there were, and to goad the "Keyblade Master" into destroying what we could not.

Xemnas sent hundreds of us Nobodies to our deaths, and yet, we could do little more than follow Him in blind obedience.

He was a man deserving of the title "The Superior" if for nothing more than his charisma. Lacking emotions, he led us merely by the power of persuasion.
