A lone figure was resting in a field of grass. It was nothing but grassy hills for miles and the only changes in scenery anywhere in the area were a little town to the east and a large damn in the south which blocked a river that lead to a beach.

The figure was sitting under a tree while some cows were grazing about 20 meters away. He was in a fairly casual outfit consisting of a green shirt with a white T-shirt underneath, green pants which had pockets and beige writing scribbled as a design all over, a wooden surfer necklace, brown shoes, a chain hanging out of his pants pocket and attaching itself to one of his 3 belts which are all crossed over one another and a long wristband that rides up to halfway up his forearm.. His hair was Black and was relatively short but was spiky all the way down to his neck where it frayed slightly.

He had an old rapier next to him which he would usually take out and practice fighting with on trees and dummies that were thrown out of his mother's studio.

He decided to get up and practice on a tree when a girl started running up to him.

She was in a blue half dress which extended down her right leg only and was held up by a belt, she was wearing white shorts underneath and had on a white shirt with blue rims and no sleeves. She had lots of bracelets on as well as a white choker with a metal ring holding it together. Her brown hair looked short and was frayed out at the back but was actually sporting two long plats down to her feet which were held together by white material wrapped around both of them. She was wearing Black knee high boots.

Girl- "Shade, shade!"

Shade looked at her and stuck his rapier in the ground. He then ran over to her.

Shade- "What is it Kuza?"

She stopped running right in front of him

Kuza- "Val, she captured this weird black thing down at the forest by the dam, she wants you to see it before she tells the mayor"

Shade thought for a moment. He had seen a weird white creature on the beach a week ago but told know one other Val the scientist researching wildlife affected by the dam, and Kuza who was his best friend since he moved from his old town 8 years earlier.

Shade- "Okay I'll go; this may explain that thing I saw before"

Kuza- "I'm going as well"

The two ran off to Myponga Village

When they arrived at the building a strange explosion occurred and a little black creature ran out of the building. Kuza tried to catch it but it escaped her and she fell flat on her face.

Val came running out of the building which had managed not to set alight but was covered in a cloud of dust. She appeared to be in her mid 20's; she was wearing a white coat over a green tank top and blue jeans and sneakers. Her hair was blonde and went down her back in a ponytail with only a few hairs hanging out making a fringe. She also wore a pair of glasses that gave her an heir of maturity, which was not the case at all with Val.

Val- "Did you see that thing Shade?"

Shade- "Yeah, what was it"

Val- "I was so close to finding out but just before I could put it to sleep it disappeared and when I checked where it went, it got into the emergency flares and set them off, god knows how"

Kuza- "Should we chase it?"

Val- "Hold on"

She went back in and pulled out a box with a screen that was blinking every few seconds

Kuza- "You tagged it?"

Val- "You learn that it's best to tag first, study later in this profession"

They all followed its signal to the forest where it went into the very centre where most people never went to.

When they emerged from the trees they saw the heartless run up to a figure that was holding a strange key shaped weapon, they couldn't see much in this part of the forest so they could only make out a male holding a key to the small pond in the middle of the area. He was in an Organization XIII cloak.

Shade- "What is he holding?"

Val- "What is he doing?"

Kuza- "Shhhhhh!"

The figure looked at them and jumped back. He shot a blast out of his weapon right at Shade which he tried to block with his rapier when all of a sudden a light surrounded his weapon and it took on the shape of the mans weapon and parried the blast.

Val and Kuza- "What!"

The man noticed the change but took little notice of it pointed his weapon at the ground, he then sent a black beam into the pond which opened up into a keyhole shape and began shattering.

The man disappeared when he jumped above the trees and the three of them noticed that the ground was shaking.

Val- "What's happening?"

Kuza looked up at the trees

Kuza- "Oh no!"

The leaves on the trees started rotting of and revealed a huge black sphere in the air above everything. Everything was covered in darkness and even the sky had gone black but with no stars or anything.

Shade- "We have to get out of here!"

The all tried running but the entire Forrest near the pond was sucked up into the sphere. Shade, Kuza and Val tried holding their hands as they were sucked up but Kuza was hit by a branch and knocked away from Shade and Val who were sucked up into the sphere.

The land under the sphere then crumbled and exploded.
