Chapter 1: Shadows
Aqua ran down the road. She had to get away from it. The young girl ran down the dirt road, not a soul in sight, completely deserted. No houses, no people, no trees, no hiding places. Aqua looked behind her. Nothing was there. She stopped to catch her breath when it jumped out of the shadows. Aqua yelped in fear and slipped and fell on the ground. The thing got closer, its large moon shaped eyes glistening.
"Help!" Aqua cried. A young man stood beside her."Help me," She pleaded.
"Use it, you have it for a reason," The young man said.
"I don't know what you're talking about, please help me," She cryed. The monster grew in size until it was as tall as a skyscraper.
"You have a gift Aqua," The young man said."Use it." His last words echoed in Aqua's mind at different rates."Use it..Use it.....Use it."
The giant shadow bent down and punched Aqua.
"You have the Keyblade."
Aqua shot up in bed. She panted trying to think if this was reality, or a dream. She got out of bed and watched the sun rise over the horizon.
"What a strange dream," Aqua murmured to herself.
"Aqua, come down stairs and eat your breakfast. We have the festival to prepare for," Her mom said after knocking on her door.
"Coming!" Aqua said.
As she sat at the dinner table and ate breakfast, her mom and dad kept babbling."I can't believe you're ten all ready," Her dad said.
"Dad, what's the big deal," Aqua asked.
"What's the big deal? In Dancing Oceans, it is customary that when a child turns ten, they travel to the Temple of Waves to be blessed by the elders for a life full of luck," Her mom said.
Aqua sighed."And I got to do it all by myself, I know mom."
Her mom frowned." Are you all right dear?"
"I just had a bad dream," Aqua said.
Her parents looked at each other."It's probably nothing, you should go get ready," Her parents said.
Aqua went back up stairs and got dressed for the day and headed out.
"Bye honey, be back by sundown," Her parents said."Love you."
Aqua waved back."Love you too."
Aqua began her trek down the road. The temple was im a cove on the other side of the island. She walked down the dirt road, feeling that it oddly resembled the road of her nightmare. A dirt road with nothing in any direction. Aqua gulped and pushed away the awful memory and walked forward.
Aqua had been walking for some time when her nerves got the best of her, so, she did what she loved the most; cartwheeling. Aqua slowly began to forget her worries as she twilred down the road. Soon she fell to the ground and heard a low chuckle. She looked around, but nothing was there except the blue ocean on one side and the green grass on the other.
Aqua stopped dancing to pick up her pace. She heard another low chuckle, this time Aqua was sure she heard it."Who's there?"She asked. No answer. Aqua ran down the road a bit farther until she heard another low chuckle. She turned around and saw a man in black robes but his face was concealed by a hood.
"Are you an elder?" Aqua asked. The man shook his head, but said nothing.
"Then why do you wear those robes?"
The man didn't answered, but raised his hand and pointed a finger at Aqua.
Aqua frowned. She blinked and he disappeared. Startled, she turned around but the man was in her way."What do you want?" Aqua asked, trying to hide her fear.
"Show me..." Is all he said. Suddenly, those monsters from Aqua's nightmare appeared all around her. Aqua screamed and ran toward the temple that wa still a ways away but you could see the cove in the distance. She couldn't out run them though. She had to constantly look over her shoulder to avoid any unpleasent attacks from behind.
One jumped at her and Aqua cartwheeled away.'What does he mean?' Aqua thought. Thinking back to her dream, she knew what would happen next, no more shadows behind her. She didn't stop running though and saw that she was almost to the cove. Suddenly, the big monster appeared in front of Aqua, causing her to backflip so she wouldn't run into it.
The man appeared again."Show me," He said.
"Show you what?" Aqua asked.
"The key to defeat the darkness."
"The what?"
"Your Keyblade."
Aqua stepped backwards, her gaze darting from the giant and the man in the robes. Aqua looked closer and saw his eyes glittering under his hood. HIs eyes were a golden yellow, emotionless and full of rage.
"My Keyblade?"
"You have one, now use it, I grow tired of these games." The man said and gave a command to the giant and it attacked Aqua. Aqua cartwheeled out of the way and felt something click inside her mind. Her hand tickled and it appeared.
"Finally,"The man said.
'My name, is Rainfall,' The voice rang in Aqua's mind.
"Well Rainfall, let's see what we can do?" Aqua said, stabbing the giants leg and cutting through it as if the leg was butter.
After fighting the giant, it grew very aggravated and knocked Aqua to the ground.
The man laughed and the giant prepared to deliver the final blow.
Aqua closed her eyes. Nothing happened. She opened her eyes to see the man in the black robes was gone and the giant was gone. Instead, there was a young boy who looked twelve standing over her, with a Keyblade set to his side and his hand held out to help her up.
"Hi, my name is Terra, what's yours?"
