Darkness. Our worlds have been scattered in darkness and are scattering at an alarming pace. Once all the worlds were connected and lived in peace and harmony, bathing in the glorious light that surrounded them. Unfortunately, some only wanted the light for themselves. They turned their hearts from the light and plunged into total darkness, where their hearts were swallowed completely. Wether the reason was weakness or greed, one by one, they all perished. That was never the end, though. What most people never realized was that there is always a source of light in every heart, in the deepest depths of the soul. A light that could never die, a light that was always there to guide you. However, to awaken that light, you must find the true source of happiness in your heart. And you were on a quest for that exact purpose. Ever since birth, you were gifted with great powers. You grew up with your older sister Aerith and although, you never knew your parents, you two were content with your lives and made each other strong. Everyone else didn't care about you, they all considered you a freak, but Aerith didn't care, you were her sister, and she loved you. That's why life can seem so unfair at times. Just when you think you have perfect balance in your life, chaos, always breaks out, one way or another……….

Aerith: 8, You: 6

"(y/n), come on, what is it?" Aerith asked you as you led her to the surprise you had promised. You gripped her hand tightly and pulled back a tree branch to reveal a meadow full of wildflowers. Aerith smiled warmly. "(y/n), it's beautiful." She said in her usual, smooth tone. You smiled and picked a lavender flower that was tickling at your ankle. You offered the flower to Aerith. " For you sissy." You said sweetly. She warm smile only seemed to widen. She took the flower from your hand and placed it behind her ear, in her long, chestnut hair. " Thank you." She replied with a giggle. You smiled at her. But a sudden, loud clap of thunder quickly made it fall. Aerith's gaze drifted to the sky, and she studied it carefully. "(y/n), run." She warned, the once clear, cerulean sky begging to cloud over with blackness. "Why?" You questioned suspiciously, not having the fondest idea of what was happening. " This is no ordinary storm, (y/n), now run." She instructed, her eyes yet to be removed from the dark sky. "But……" You tried to protest. As if reading your thoughts, she bent down next to you and gave you a genuine smile. " I'll be just fine, I promise." She vowed, embracing you in a hug. She gently parted from you. You, not even daring to look back, began running as fast as you could. When you felt as if you could barely go on, you slumped at the base of a palm tree. After all, you did live on an island, you could only run so far until you reached the sea. As the storm began to engulf the island, you could help but feel eerie and frightened. You had NEVER in your life seen a storm quite like this. "This is no ordinary storm, (y/n)…………" Your sister's words seemed to ring in your ear. What could she have meant by that? Eyes half-lidded, you stared aimlessly at the ground. Without warning, several black creatures seemed to rise out of nowhere. You snapped out of your thoughts and let out a shrill cry as your eyes focused on the creatures. You'd never seen such horrible things in your lifetime. They very much resembled ants. They were small and black, with twisted antennas coming out of their heads. What seemed to terrify you most about them was their eyes. Such a haunting yellow glow from them. They seemed to put you in a trance that left you virtually motionless with fear. One raised what seemed to be its arm and you knew right away that it was going to attack you. You still had yet to move, paralyzed with fear. It shook its head, almost searching around blindly for you. All you managed to do was outstretch your hand in front of you, praying that somehow it could deflect its attack. You turned your head away, facing the possibility of death. All of the sudden, you felt an intense rush of energy race out of your palm. You stared down mindlessly at your hand, electric energy gathered at your fingertips and flew towards the creatures. With one powerful impact, it obliterated every one of them. Wide-eyed, you began shaking violently. "H-how? How did I do that?" You asked yourself. 'Aerith…….. help me……….." You whined. You simply didn't understand, what was all this? Everything was happening so fast, you thought your head might explode. What was going on? Your ears perked up at the sudden sound of Aerith's distant cry. "(y/n)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She screamed. You looked ahead to see Aerith being surrounded by a black orb of energy. You couldn't just sit and do nothing any longer. She was your older sister, and she needed you right now. She reached her hand out to you, as if to make an attempt to reach you. You stood up, knees buckling, the orb completely swallowed her. "(y/n)!!!!!!! (y/n) Help me, please!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" She wailed. "Aerith!!!!!" You yelled out and began to sprint towards her. With each step, it seemed like she was getting further away from you. A sudden, sharp pain hit your arm and you clutched it. One of those……… whatever they were had just grazed your arm. But you didn't stop, you couldn't stop. You already lost your parents, you weren't going to lose your sister too. Your legs betrayed you as they stopped with constant vibration and completely gave out. You fell against the grainy sand. The blood was snaking its way out of your wound and the sand only added to your pain as it stung your opened flesh. "Aerith!!!!!!!!!!" You cried helplessly. Tears were flooding your eyes and your vision was starting to blur. You didn't know what to do anymore, you couldn't move, you couldn't think, all you could do was lie there and listen as the force field began engulfing your sister. Your breathing became quick and shallow, you were losing too much blood for your body to handle. "(y/n)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" Aerith cried. "Aerith…….." Your voice trailed off. Your world turned black and the only thing you could hear was the distant shriek of your name once more, until it all melted away. Several hours later, you woke with a gasp and began huffing with deep breaths as beads of sweat rolled off your body. You opened you eyes and sat up. "What happened? And why does my arm hurt so much?" You asked groggily. The it all registered back to you. Aerith…………… "Aerith? A-Aerith?" You questioned, looking every which way for you sister. The tears you had earlier tried so hard to fight off now rolled down your cheeks. "Aerith!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" You wailed. That's when you noticed, your home, the island, was in ruins. Fear overtook you once again. Were you the only one alive? Whatever those things were, they had taken EVERYTHING you had once held dear. You hugged your knees to your chest and wiped your eyes. Then, something caught your eye. Lying on the ground below your feet was the lavender flower that you had given to Aerith. You picked up the flower, putting it in your own hair. Hope seemed to fill the gap in your heart. You stood up, staring into the moonlit distance. Aerith wasn't dead, somehow you just knew. That's when electricity once again gathered in the palm of your hand. This time you weren't afraid. That's when you vowed to yourself, you were willing to go past your limits and beyond, but you knew there was something special about you. You vowed, you would find her………no matter what…………..

End Flashback

That was your first encounter with the heartless. You were young then, and sixteen now. You had immensely matured, as did your powers, you were getting stronger every day. Nothing was going to stop you from finding your sister, nothing. You pushed open the doors to a world known as Traverse Town. You looked around at all the different shops and café's, seemed like a nice place to stay. You turned your head to a sign that read: Third District. You smiled and walked over to the large, blue doors and once again pushed them open. (A/N: srry, but those are some big ass doors, you can't help but push them) You took in a deep breath, you hadn't the slightest clue as to where you were going. You barely had time to take one step before a whole fleet of heartless popped out of nowhere. You sighed gruffly. "Great……………."
