O.k. so with a mixture of sheer boredom and the desire to post, I have come up with this spin-off to the r.p Kingdom Hearts: Gathering Of The Wielders. This occurs between the time period of the 1st and 2nd installments. Most of the characters are of my own original design but for those that are not, they are most likely creations of Square Enix or of a friend from the r.p and I am simply using them for my story.

About a year had gone by since I had closed the door to Kingdom Hearts and was thrown into that void of darkness. Unknown, to Kiruxen and the wielders. I had survived my fall and I now wander the cold darkness alone.

"Gah! Are we there yet?!?"

Well, almost alone anyway. As I slowly turned to look at the source of the question, a young man with short white hair and dark brown eyes, I took a deep breath to control my growing annoyance. "For the last time Xenjin, if we were there I'd tell you." I managed to avoid yelling.

He chuckled a bit as we walked on. "I know, I was just kidding. Lighten up." He'd say while favoring me with a tiny smile, as he yawned and stretched a little.

He along with me had fallen into the void and we were both there because we tried to save someone. For him it was his lab assistant Mahem, and for me it was my brother Kiruxen. We both had a small touch of emotion at that time which is almost impossible for any nobody in its own right, and now look at us. Walking toward a place I thought that I was being called toward.

"We're almost there." I said, as I looked around. It wasn't too hard to find whatever they were going toward because it was the only light in this void of darkness.

Xenjin yawned again as he continued walking. "I still can't feel it. Are you sure this is the right way? I haven't seen a single sign of…" He couldn't even finish his sentence before 50 guardian heartless appeared around them.

I growled in annoyance as I summoned my twilight katana to my hand and held it up in defense. "This enough of a sign for you? These bastards are probably heading for the source of the light too. We must be getting close."

"Maybe you're right after all…" He'd say as he activated his contacts which made his eyes glow a dark red. After detecting a weak point on all of the heartless, he summoned a purple broadsword made out of his own energy. "Let's go!" He'd yell as he began slashing the heartless apart.

I stabbed one of the guardians in the chest and then I dragged the sword across its chest diagonally which pretty much slashed it in half. I then turned toward two guardians that had begun running toward me and I held up my open hand and shot an energy blast that had turned them into dust.

Wanting to wrap up this fight, Xenjin shot me a quick nod which symbolized that it was time to use our limit that we had been working on.

Returning the nod, I lined up back to back with him and then I held up my hand and began to glow blue. A cloud appeared high above us as well as the heartless and it began to swirl.

Seeing this, Xenjin began to fulfill his part by glowing purple as he lifted us up into the air and into the center of the clouds. We both then but our hands into the air and got ready to fire.

"Brainstorm!" We both would yell loudly as we released our powers and caused several purple energy beams to rain across the slew of heartless. Needless to say, they were all obliterated by the attack. "Alright!" We both said slightly happily as we made our weapons vanish.

Once they were all gone. We both landed and I began to scope the area. Suddenly, a portal of light which was the source that we had been searching for, opened up and sucked us inside of it.

"W-what the hell?!?" Xenjin would yell as we floated through the portal. Everything was glowing and spinning.

The portal opened and spit us out and we hit the ground hard. As it closed, I stood up and looked around. We were in some large room surrounded by strange heartless. You could tell just from looking at them though, that these heartless were different from the others, were the size and build of a man in his early twenties, and they were wearing a strange silver armor with a strange symbol that looked to be a sword plunging into the top of a heart. "This is bad. Where the hell are we?" I asked as I held up my fists in a defensive manner.

"How the hell should I know?" Xenjin would reply in a surprised tone of his own. He noticed that all of the heartless had swords so he made one of his own appear. "Wherever we are, we may have to fight our way out."

Xenjin probably didn't feel it because he didn't have a heart like I did. I felt it go completely frigid with darkness for about two seconds as a presence made itself known to be behind me. I made Mercy appear into my hand just incase the stranger wanted to try something.

"Castle Oblivion…" a strange voice said from behind us as the candles grew even lighter. We turned to see a rather slender man dressed in a black suit with a black tie and even blacker hair but he had eerie golden eyes like that of a hawk. He also had a strange book in his hand that he appeared to be reading as he talked to us. "You are in Castle Oblivion…."

Who is this mysterious figure? And what's with the strange heartless and their symbols? Find out next time in "The good ol'days."
