A/N: For those of you who have read "Kingdom Hearts: Light Within The Heart" here's a little something extra. A story about a young lady known as Chantal. She's living a normal life in Twilight Town. Not only that, but someone in the darkness is kidnapping mysterious people and a certain Keyblade master is on an investigation. What happens when he runs into a certain someone who gets involved?
Traverses Town.
A world were people who travel around several worlds come for rest, food, information and a little bit of some fun. At the night club in the fourth distract, a show goes on. One that the narrator here rather not say what it's about. But I can say that it's being quite an enjoyment to a lot of men. Especially one in a business gray suit.
The man leaves the bar one the show is over, laughing with delight. "What a show. So much skin those women were showing!"
As the man walks by, a mysterious figure (Not the Living Nightmare one) takes notice of him. The figure is in a purple jacket, black shirt, black shorts and purple heel boots. But she's wearing a black hood caped, so her face can't be made out.
Exhaling a frost breath, she follows the man.
The man gives an evil groan as he wonders throughout town. Distract four is a tight area, nothing but allies and allies. Anyone can get so easily lost in here. The man ends up in a deadend, and he's not too happy about it.
"Ugh! Another dead end?" He says. "I come here every Friday and I can't even find my way around this stinking town!"
It's true. He comes here every Friday for the show and he can't seem to learn his way around the allies. I blame lust distraction.
Sighing, the man turns. He makes his leave but shortly stops when he sees the female figure blocking his only way. The man and figure are at a stand still, staring at to each other until the man breaks the silence.
"Who's there?" The figure doesn't answer. She's as silent as the grave. "Get out of my way or you'll be sorry!"
The figure only breaths, then she rushes towards the man. She moves so fast the man didn't see her move. At the one second, she's just standing there and at the same time he got punched hard in the gut. The man crashes to the wall and falls to the ground.
"Okay!" He gets back on his feet and marches towards the figure. "You asked for it sweetcheeks!"
The man swings his fist, aiming for her head. The figure docks then delivers very fast punches, right in the stomach, to the man. The man groans in pain from each blow he receives. For her finishing move, the figure gives him a windmill kick, right in the face, knocking the daylights out of the man.
The man lays on the floor unconscious. The figure stands there, looking down at him. Out of nowhere, a dark corridor appears in the wall. Another man walks right out of it.
This man is in a black robe, but his hood is down. Black Glaive hand protecters. Long silver hair in the form of a ponytail and a blindfold. The man is blind.
The blind man stands right next to the figure, facing down at the unconscious person. "He is the one we're after all right: The Darkeri of Lust...Take him back to the castle. Once we capture the other two and the Demon Soul, I will be unstoppable."
The figure carries the man over her shoulders then walks to the corridor. Once she's gone, the blind man stands in front of the wall at the end of the ally. He holds his right arm out, triggering his Glaive blades to pop out of each sides of his hand. The blind man does some brutal strikes on the wall.
In ten seconds, he's finished then walks away. The marking on the wall he created is a large circle, and in that circle is a large L with and S in the end of the L.
The calling of a LeiShen.
Twilight Town is a lovely town. It's citizens are very friendly...well, mostly of them. There are others. (Hint. Hint. Seifer)
There's young lady in this town named Chantal. She is 18 years of age and is in a Hot pink shirt with the waist black that partly reveals her left shoulder, silver ruffled skirt, white shoes with black laces and black elevator heels. Her hair is straight, about as long to only reach her shoulders.
Right now she is in her room writing on her disk. Chantal is a lovely girl, but can be pretty shy sometimes.
"Chantal!" Chantal snaps out of her focus when her mother is calling her. "Time for school!"
She smiles then gets ready for school.
Hayner, Pence and Olette are right now waiting outside of Chantals house.
It's been two months since Rasputin and the Shadowmoon were defeated. All though that really doesn't have anything to do with this world or its people.
After what feels like forever, mainly to Hayner and Pence, Chantal finally comes out of the house. Everyone is excited to see her. "Chantal! Hey!"
Chantal smiles. "Hayner. Pence. Olette." Chantal approaches to her friends. "You guys didn't really have to wait for me."
"Don't be modest. We are friends." Olette says. Feeling that makes Chantal happy.
The four of them start walking to school. On the way they start having conversations. Some of them mostly talking about what to do on summer vacation. Pence was thinking about searching the three new wonders of the town he's been hearing at school. Hayner is mentioning about doing some Struggle training to beat Seifer in the tournament at the end of summer.
"So, Chantal. You gonna ask Sky to the Moonlight Dance?" Olette asks.
Chantal suddenly feels a bit nervous. The Moonlight Dance is a prom their school is having, and Sky is a tough pretty boy that Chantal is crushing on. But she never has the courage, overcome by her own shyness, to ask him out.
"Uh...umm..." She looks down like she's embarrassed, then suddenly stops. "I don't know. I mean...I want too but...I-I just don't know."
Just when things couldn't get worse, Chantal is greeted by a wicked laugh. She turns to see it's Violet. A girl who was once human, but became a vampire. How she became one, I cannot say (Just something that's happened in one of SnowEmbrace's comics)
"You...ask Sky out...to the dance?" Violet slowly approaches Chantal. "Why would the prettiest boy in town would want to go to a school dance with a loser like you!" Violet gives Chantal a pain shove.
Olette and Pence stand in between Violet and Chantal, then Hayner pushes Violet away. "Leave her alone, Violet!"
Violet is pretty mad, even glares at Hayner. "Why bother hanging out with this nerd?" He gets into Hayners face with a hostile hiss and bloody eyes then walks away.
Everyone just watches Violet until she's out of sight. Chantal looks down in shame. Olette notices and knows what she's thinking about. "Don't listen to Violet. She's just a jerk."
"Yeah...but what if she's right? I'm afraid he might say no." Chantal asks.
"Well, why don't you just go talk to him?" Pence asks.
"Yeah." Olette grabs Chantals hand then the gang continues walking. "Come on. We'll come with you and ask him out."
Meanwhile, the train runs on high speed from Sunset Terrance to the Train Station.
I am boarding on that train. Right now I am looking over a large spellbook that has the LeiShen logo on it, muttering the spells I read. This book holds the most powerful spells ever created and I am learning how to master them. But it's not just that. I am on a mission under the orders of my master.
[Flashback]
"Master Yen Sid. Are you sure?" King Mickey asks.
Yen Sid and the King are having a conversation about what is happening throughout the worlds with the seven Darkeri's. Yen Sid has a bad feeling that something dark is about to happen, but not only that, he also wonders who could be calling me. So Yen Sid has decided to summon me to his tower.
"I am certain. Whoever is behind all this is up to something, and if he's gathering the Darkeri's and calling the LeiShen, it must be bad." Yen Sid says.
"Well, that is true, but." Mickey was interrupted by the sound of the door opening and closing. Mickey turns to see that I have arrived. "Patrick!"
I just look at Mickey then I turn to Yen Sid. "You wanted to see me, master Yen Sid?"
"Indeed. Please. Have a seat." Yen Sid says.
I sit on the chair in front of Yen Sids desk. "Is this about the Shadowmoon, sir? I have already told you everything I know."
Yen Sid holds a hand out, telling me to be quiet. "I have called you here for something else." I raise an eyebrow hearing that. I wonder what this could be about. "Are you aware of the Darkeri?"
Now I'm caught by surprise to hear that. "Darkeri? ...I've read about them in one of the books at the LeiShen castle library." I slightly turn my head and whisper the next sentence. "Or what's left of it I should say..." Then I turn back to Yen Sid. "They are demons created by Chaos himself. Seven of each: Anger, Fear, Greed, Lust, Pride, Sorrow and Vengeance."
Yen Sid nods. "Indeed. Thirty years ago, your father hunted them down and defeated them. By doing so, he sealed their powers with a spell that imprisons them in human forms."
"So, they are like regular people now, only...they would still be the negative creatures they are as. Like the Anger Darkeri would be angry all the time." I ask.
"Correct. Now...there is a reason I summoned you here." Yen Sid says. "A few weeks ago, the stars tell me that the Darkeri are disappearing, one-by-one. But not only that, whenever they disappear, this appears."
Yen Sid unleashes a spell. A puff of magic smoke appears on Yen Sid's table. The smoke vanishes but what it left behind is the LS in a circle the blind man made back in Traverses town.
"The calling of the LeiShen?" I ask, surprised.
"Whenever an Darkeri disappears, this mark appears at the very location they do." Yen Sid waves his hand, causing the symbol to disappear. "I have sent Mickey to investigate the situation."
"And what did he find out?" I ask.
"Well, three days ago in Traverses Town, the Darkeri of Lust was attacked by two people. One of them was blind, and I couldn't make out the other one." Mickey says. "Once they captured him, the blind man said something about capturing the other two and being unstoppable."
That defiantly doesn't sound good. "What does he mean by that? Is he trying to break the spell that binds the Darkeri's?"
"I cannot say for certain what they are planning. But I know it cannot be good." Yen Sid says.
"So you want me to find these people and stop them." I say.
"Indeed. But be careful. The Darkeri are very dangerous." Yen Sid.
I nod, understanding. "Yes master."
I get on my feet then make my leave, until... "Now just a moment." I stop and turn back to Yen Sid. "I have something for you." Yen Sid casts a spell, causing the large spellbook the appears on the table.
I approach to the table, looking confused at the spellbook, directly at the LeiShen logo. "What's this, master Yen Sid?"
"This is the Hexicon. A powerful spellbook created by your ancestors." Yen Sid says. "It has been passed down for generations. After Rasputin's betrayal, your father wanted to keep it safe for you to have. I was instructed to give this to you once you were ready." I grab the book with both of my hands. It's a little heavy. "Use it very wisely. It holds the most powerful spells that only a LeiShen can handle. You may also use it to create new spells."
I give Yen Sid a respectful bow. "Yes, master."
[Flashback ends]
The train arrives at the station.
All of the passangers, including me, walk right out of it. I don't pay attention to where I'm going, I just have my eyes fixated on the book, learning the spells upon it.
"Fah sha ko fu. Lou ka sto ma ka?" I stop my pace and slam the book close. "Who writes this stuff?"
Sunrise High School is a large high school. It's also the only high school in Twilight Town.
Chantal and her friends are spending most of their free time, during lunch and between periods, to find Sky. Sadly, he is no where to be found. Nobody has seen him in school all day. Most of them believed he's having a sick day, but some of the students, such as Sky's close friends, knows that can't be true, otherwise they would have been told.
Something is up.
Once school was over, Chantal went to the Usual Spot with her friends. Chantal, Pence and Olette went straight to the Usual Spot. Hayner went to a store to get some sea-salt ice cream. Once he got the ice cream he meets up with his friends at the spot.
Chantal is a little bumped she didn't get the chance to ask Sky out. This time it's not because of her shyness, but because he didn't show up at school.
"It's so weird. No one knows what happened to him." Hayner says.
"I agree. You'd think Alexei would know." Pence adds.
Olette nods in agreement. "We're sorry, Chantal."
Chantal looks at Olette with a small smile. "It's all right."
"Well, why don't you just go to the dance with us?" Pence suggests. That certainly brought Chantal's attention. She thought he's asking her out as a date, but then it's been cleared out. "As a group."
"That's really sweet of you, but no thanks." Chantal says.
"Hey, at least you're not going to the dance with your dad." Olette says disappointed. Hayner, Pence and Chantal shudders in agreement.
"I don't know...I guess Sky and I aren't just meant to be." Chantal gets up. "Maybe I should go visit him."
"You want us to come?" Olette offers, knowing how this is going to turn out. But Chantal declines their offer. The second Chantal leaves, the three of them talk about how badly this is going to end.
Chantal walks on the streets of Twilight Town. She's real nervous as she walks closer to Sky's house. Just when things couldn't get any worse, someone grabs her and pulls her into the dark ally.
Meanwhile, I start walking towards this destination, on the opposite direction Chantal was. Once again, I'm looking over my Hexicon spellbook.
"'Healing Hands. A powerful handling ability granted to cure any poison or disease and heal the deepest wound. Slightest chance of even reviving a dead person, but only if the period of death is under ten minutes and the victim is under the age of 40.' Hmm." I look up wondering. "I wonder if this will fix Aqua's inability to walk." I look back into the book. "Just do the following hand gestures and say the chant...Rin. Pyo...Toh..."
I become interrupted by my studies when I hear some girl scream. I snap out of my focus and look at the direction the scream came from. To my worries, even though I'm not showing it, it came from an ally. "Oh dear. This can't be good."
Chantal is tossed, crashing against the two trash cans. The poor girl is being bullied. "Please...stop! Somebody help!"
A man in black with fiery red hair, Alexei, approaches her. He grabs her by the shirt and lefts her off her feet. "So, you like dumping people, huh? Maybe I should dump you!" He says as he tosses Chantal into the dumpster, then closes the lad shut. Clever play on words, but horrible bullying.
"Maybe now you'll think twice before breaking my cousins heart!" Alexei shouts, loud enough for Chantal to hear, then kicks the dumbster hard, obviously to startle her or hurt her hearing. Who knows.
Unfortunately for him, I heard it as well. His shouting of course. All he gets is a grip on the back of his shoulders and a slam against the wall.
"That is not cool man!" I say, glaring at Alexei.
Alexei is surprise to see me. Normally, he knows it would be Sky who defends Chantal whenever he or Violet bullies her. But instead it's another shady guy, one he has not seen in this town.
"Just who are you? Beat it, punk! This is none of your business!" Alexei says.
"Who do you think you are to decide what is my business?" I turn and toss Alexei, causing him to crash into a bunch of trash cans.
He is not happy.
"Okay! That's it!" Alexei gets back on his feet and stomps towards me. "You're asking for it, buddy!"
Alexei punches me, only I grab his wrist before he makes contact, then give it a painful twist. Alexei grunts in agony then I flip him. Alexei gets back on his feet, attacks me again. I dodge his next three punches, then block the kick. I grab him by the ankle then slam him against the dumpster. That knock some wind out of him.
Alexei lays on the ground coughing, gasping for some air. I slowly approach him until I am inches from his face. Alexei look up I just glare down at him, her fingers cracking as I form a fist. My way of trying to scare him.
Alexei groans in frustration. He gets back on his feet and walks away, only for a few feet then looks back at me. "This ain't over!" Then he continues walking off.
I just watch Alexei, making sure he doesn't do any more tricks. Once he is out of sight, I take care of someone who needs some help.
