A/N: So, I decided to post this prologue of this new story because it was ready, and I wanted to give you guys something to read while I battle the monster known as writer's block that insists on putting a stop to my other projects.

In the beginning, there was only ocean, until the mother island emerged; Te Fiti. Her heart held the greatest power ever known. It could create life itself, and Te Fiti shared it with the world.

But, in time, some began to seek Te Fiti's Heart. They believed if they could possess it, the great power of creation would be theirs. And one day, the most daring of them all voyaged across the vast ocean to take it.

He was a demi-god of the wind and sea. He was a warrior, a trickster, a shape-shifter who could change form with the power of his magical fishhook. And his name… was Maui.

But, without her Heart, Te Fiti began to crumble, giving birth to a terrible darkness.

Maui tried to escape, but was confronted by another who sought the Heart; Te Ka, a demon of earth and fire. Maui was struck from the sky, never to be seen again, and his magical fishhook and the Heart of Te Fiti were lost to the sea.

But, that's not all that was lost. Maui had brought another soul from the island of Te Fiti, a light from another world with incredible cosmic powers. The child, a defender of worlds beyond our own vanished along with Maui, his light lost beneath the waves.

Even now, a thousand years later, Te Ka and the demons of the deep still hunt for the Heart, and the cosmic light, hoping to possess a greater power than anyone has ever known.

A/N: So yeah, eventually this will turn into a full length story, and sorry this was so short. I'm actually kind of stalling because I'm trying to get up the courage to work on an edited version of one of my posted stories. I just don't want to start it and then not finish it. I'll do my best to finish my other projects, too.
