Hello Ladies and Germs! So I've had this idea, for quite a while and i figured why not, and wrote this! So, spoilers, there will be no smut, i may imply that there is a scene, but im not writing it. Also, this will not stick to just the disney universe. Now, ON WITH THE SHOW! Like zoinks Scoob! WRONG SHOW!
The world was at one point, blanketed by light, where all prospered, and the only saddness was the passing from this world to the next. But, as one sage foretold, this world could not last. The great Keyblade war, shattered the world into pieces. Regaining the balance. Yin, and Yang. Light and dark, must stay equal, and when the worlds remain unblanaced for too long, the universe creates something, or someone, to regain the balance. The keyblade masters of old were once this force. Protecting the worlds, the light, while keeping the darkness in check.
But over time, their teachings were corrupted, into destroying all darkness. And so, the worlds created the new balance. The Overlord. A being of balance, that most see as evil. One who can unite the worlds under one banner, master both the light, and the darkness.
Our story, begins not with a happy go lucky child, nor with three champions. This story, begins with a death.
"I know we've had our differences Xehanort, but I thank you for attending our Master's burial." Eriqus stated. "We both treasured the Master, much more than we both care to admit." Xehanort stated, his brow showing deep thought. "His body is prepared." Came a deep voice from the archway. Both Keyblade weilders turned and saw a large man with a graying short beard. "Master Yen Sid." They exclaimed. Yen Sid shook his head. "He has requested thst you, Eraqus, shall continue the legacy of our kindred." The wizard said, before ushering the two into the building.
"How did this happen?" Xehanort asked. "Our enemy tried to invade the Land of Departure." Eraqus explained. "This Overlord is either very arrogant, or very powerful." Xehanort said, rubbing his goatee. "Indeed. I fear that if we do not come together once again, the worlds will fall permanently." Yen Sid said. Eraqus's eye widened, while Xehanort's furrowed.
"Then we must bolster our forces, and defeat this beast." Xehanort stated. "Have you found the homeworld of this man?" Eraqus asked.
"I believe so. I may also have contacted a group of warriors who will join us in this battle."
Meanwhile.
"Brother. Come forward." A deep, gravely voice spoke. A tall, muscular man stepped into the light. "Yes my lord?" The Brother asked. "You must leave this place. Take what you need, and Gnarl will open the portal for your escape." The Overlord stated. "Why my lord?" He asked. "I fear our retreat at the Land of Departures put into effect the end of my reign. I may die, but i will ensure our bloodline does not, in hope's of the next Overlord being of our line." The Overlord explained. His brother nodded in sadness before approaching the Overlord. "I'll see you in the next world Brother." He said before going to his chambers.
"Evil always finds a way master." The elderly minion said. "Yes, it truly does. Gnarl, prepare the portal for my brother. I will see to our defences."
"Do you know where i will be sent Gnarl?" The man asked. "A small world, one of ocean and islands. Very out of the way, and no way of tracking you." Gnarl explained. "Good to know." The man said before approaching the portal. "Gnarl... i know you don't think highly of me. Or my brother in fact, but i wish to thank you, for imparting the lessons and knowledge you have upon us." The man said. "Ignis. I still think you should have been picked as the Overlord. Now go, continue the line." Gnarl said. Ignis nodded before stepping threw the portal. "Insufferable brat." Gnarl smirked.
Six years later.
"Push honey." Ignus said. "YOU'RE NEVER TOUCHING ME AGAIN!" His wife yelled. "Yes dear." The man said, nursing his hand. "WAAAAAAAH!" A baby cried. "It's a boy!" The nurse said. "Congratulations Ignus, Nami." The doctor said. Nami held her baby in a blanket to her chest. She baby already asleep. "What shall we name him?" She asked before the baby yawned and opened his eyes. They were a piercing blue, like looking into the sky. "How about Sora, just like his eyes." Ignis suggested. "I like it. Our little Sora."
Four years later.
"In your hand, take this key." A tall man said to Rikku. Ignis watched from the docks. "Sora, go grab Rikku." Ignis said. A keyblade. It seems my brother really did fail. I must prepare Sora. Ignis thought.
The next day. "Alright Sora. Let's go outside, I want you to see something." Ignus said to his son. "Sure dad." Sora said following his dad. Outside sat a straw figurine, and a large log. "What are these for Dad?" Sora asked. "These, are to start your training with." Ignis explained. "Training?" Sora asked.
"Yes. I want to teach you the way of the sword." Ignis explained. Sora's eye's lit up. "Really!?" Sora asked. "Yes. Now take this." Ignis said, throwing Sora a small wooden sword. "This, is your Bokken. It will teach you how to handle a sword." Ignis explained. The rest of the day Father and son trained. "Not that I'm upset by you spending time with your son, but why train him to wield a sword?" Nami asked. "You remember my past yes?" Ignis asked. Nami nodded, having been told about his life before he asked her to marry her.
"Yes. Why does that matter?" Nami asked worriely. "I saw a keyblade wielder today. He did some sort of Ritual with Sora's friend, Rikku. There's no saying what will happen. I just want him to be prepared for the future." Ignis said. Nami smiled before kissing her husband. "That sounds so noble of you." She said before the went to sleep.
Ten years later, current time.
"Why am I... falling?" Sora asked himself. All his surroundings were dark, yet he could see himself. "Don't be afraid." A voice said from the darkness. "Whose there!?" Sora demanded. "A memory, or maybe, what i once was." The voice spoke. "Sora? Is that you?" A new voice spoke before a bright light envoloped the teen. When he could see again, he was standing upon a large stain glass pillar. "Where... am I?" He spoke aloud. He looked at the mural in the glass.
The mural depicted a very yin yang style picture. On one half, a dark gauntlet with a white gemstone. The other, a white flame with black accents. In the middle, a strange key shaped blade, made of black and white metal. "Quite the weapon, isn't it?" A voice said behind Sora. Said boy whirled around to see two armored figures standing on either side of the mural.
"Who are you two?!" Sora demanded. "I, am a memory, or maybe the very essence of my being, put into spirit form." The older figure said. "That explains nothing." Sora said. "Haha, very good. I am your late uncle. Otherwise known as the Fifth Overlord. He on the other hand, is very different than i am."
The other armored figure stepped slightly forward. "Hello Sora. It's been quite a while since last we met." The teen stated. "Your voice. It sounds familiar." Sora said. "I should hope so. I've been with you for many years now." The teen stated. "Wait, are you... the heart that i helped as a child?" Sora asked. "Bingo. I'm Ventus, wielder of the Keyblade. At least I was, until I fell into a deep slumber." Ventus explained.
"Why did you fall asleep for so long?" Sora asked. "Well you see, many years ago, a powerful keyblade wielder by the name Xehanort. He split me into two people, one of light, the other of darkness. He then pitted us against each other in battle, forging the ultimate keyblade, known to some as the kyeblade. When we fought, we assimilated back together, and my heart was shattered once more. I came here, a refugee of war. and rested till my heart was healed. But I could not leave your heart, as you had forgotten me." Ventus explained. "I'm sorry. What happened to your body?"
"It's hidden in the Land of Departure, a world quite far from here, as it has changed into a place known as Castle Oblivion. My friend Aqua, a person you've met, brought me there before confronting Xehanort once more." Ventus explained. "I kinda remember that. She has blue hair, wears a kinda dress thing?" Sora asked. "That's her. There's also Terra. Big guy, long brown hair, wears tan and red clothes." Ventus described. "I saw him, but I didnt talk to him. He talked to my friend Rikku." Sora explained. Ventus nodded.
"So I know why Ventus is here, but why are you here?" Sora turned to the Overlord. "As I said, I am your Uncle. I am also the Overlord." Sora's uncle stated. "You keep saying that, but what is the Overlord?" Sora asked. "The Overlord is much like the Keyblade masters of old, and yet, quite different as well. We Overlords are tasked by the worlds themselves to maintain the balance between light and darkness. Ventus, what were the teachings laid down by your master?" The Overlord asked.
"Master Eraqus taught us always be on guard of the darkness within ourselves, and to always be wary of anyone claiming to understand the darkness." Ventus stated. "So it seems Eraqus became even more chained to the light since we last crossed blades." The Overlord stated. "You fought the master?" Ventus asked.
"I also killed his master. Not my best idea. I myself did not maintain the balance quite well, falling more towards the darkness than i did the light. But maybe that was what the worlds intended. Anyway, enough philosphy. I am here to test you, Sora, my nephew, to see if you're worthy to claim the throne as the next Overlord. Brandish your armor and weapon." The Overlord said, pulling out a large axe.
Sora thought for a moment before he was enveloped in a gray light. As it dulled, Sora wore a white cloak like armor. It has a guard over the right side of his neck that trailed down his arm till his elbow. It was somewhat organic in nature, being able to flow freely. His right arm had a bit more armor, going halfway up his upper arm. The cloak stopped a bit before his knees, protecting most of his body. His lower body was protected by a pair of dark grey Hakama pants, with black martial arts sandles. In his hand was a reverse gripped Katana.
"You look like quite the champion for balance." The Overlord said. "I guess he gets the reverse grip from me." Ventus said with a laugh. "Now, come at me with everything you've got." The Overlord said before charging at Sora. Sora dodged to the left before jumping backwards to avoid an earth crushing blow. Sora spun and slashed, being parried by the axe. "Not bad, but you still need a lot of work to be able to fulfill your destiny." His Uncle stated. "Parry! Parry! Thrust! Thrust! Dodge!" The Overlord yelled. "Lets see what you do now." He said before conjuring a fireball and hurled it at his nephew. Sora raised his blade and with a swift turn of his katana redirected the fireball. The Overlords fire like eyes widened. "Oh. Good job." The Overlord said. "Now what?" Sora asked. "Lets see how you do with ranged weapons."
The Overlord then summoned a bladed chain. The chain slamed on the ground, shooting sparks everywhere. He spun the chain around his head, scraping the ground as he sped towards his nephew. Sora grabbed his sheath with his spare hand, throwing it at his uncles hands. His uncle had to change tactics and maneuver his hands out of the way. This gavd Sora enough time to charge his uncle, katana in hand. With the sudden change of pace, the Overlord
found himself staring down the edge of Sora's Katana. "Very good Nephew. I've seen enough."
The Overlord said before the chain vanished and a wave of energy dispelled Sora's armor and Katana. "You have much to learn, but are at an acceptable level. Now Sora, When you arrive at our homeworld, find a minion named Gnarl, he will teach you from here. And, as every Overlord has had, you get this." His Uncle said before taking off his gauntlet. "This is the oldest artifact of our family. The gauntlet has .any abilites for you to use, but I'll leave them up to you to figure out." His Uncle said handing him the gauntlet.
To his suprise the gauntlet turned metalic black, while the gemstone turned from a sickly yellow to snow white. The gauntlet then reformed itself around his hand, forming a fingerless glove. "Not bad." Sora said with a smile. "Alright. Time for me to pass from this world to thr next. Last longer than I did kid." the Overlord said before vanishing into the darkness. Sora then turned to Ventus. "So what now?" Sora asked. "Now, I test you." Ventus said, summoning his keyblade. "Another fight?" Sora asked. "Nope. I am testing you to see if your heart's strong enough to weild the Keyblade." Ventus said before approaching Sora. He held the Keyblade in his hand, and offered it to Sora. Upon grabbing it, a flash of white shone. Ventus nodded before saying, "In your hand, take this Key. So long as you have the makings, the through this simple act of taking, it's weild you shall one day be. And you shall find me, friend, when you need it most. No world will contain you, only the light of your destiny will you follow. So long as you champion your friends before yourself." Ventus spoke.
With another flash of light, Sora help in a reverse grip, the same keyblade from the mural. "Two become one." Sora said. "A bit different than the traditional oath, but like that keyblade it suits you." Ventus said. "Are you going to fade as well?" Sora asked. "Nope. I'm stuck with you till we retrieve my body, and even then i may not be able to leave." Ventus said. "Oh yeah, try not to hurl on the way down." Ventus said before a flash of light and he was gone. "What did he mean DOOOOOOWN!!!?" Sora yelled as he plummeted threw the pillar.
Sora slowly opened his eyes to wince at the bright light before yawning and blinking again. "Whoa!" Sora yelled as a face suddenly appeared in his face. "I thought I might find you snoozing down here, Sora you lazy bumm." The Girl laughed. "Yeah yeah Kairi." Sora said standing up. He then noticed his hand. "So it wasn't just a dream." He whispered. "Whoa, cool glove Sora! Where did you get it?" Kairi asked. "Family heirloom." Sora said simply. "Hey, you two done lazing around? The raft's not gonna finish itself." Riku stated. "Actually, I need to talk to my dad about something. I'll be back in an hour or two." Sora said with a smile.
"Hey dad, you home?" Sora asked. "Outback Sora!" Ignis yelled. "Weren't you supposed to be at the island?" He asked his son. "Something came up. Two things actually." Sora said, causing his dad to stop what he was doing. Ignis then turned to his son. "What's up?" Ignis asked. Sora held up the gauntlet glove. Ignis's eye's widened. "Is that?" Ignis asked. "Yeah, Uncle came to me in a dream and tested my ability before giving me this." Sora explained. "And the other thing?" Ignis asked. Sora summoned his keyblade. "No way." Ignis said in disbelief. "Apparently I'm worthy to weild a keyblade, and bring the balance back in order." Sora said. "Of course. The stars, they've started to blink out. It must be why you were chosen now." Ignis hypothesised to himself.
"The stars have been dissapearing?" Sora asked. "Yes. These past few years the stars have slowly started to fade, before blinking out entirely. The balance must be upset, even more so then it use to." Ignis stated. "Your Uncle tried to fix it, but he succumbed to his inner darkness. causing more disbalance in the worlds. Since you are both the Overlord, and a keyblade wielder, it must mean you are needed more than ever." Ignis hyppthesised. "How will I master my light and darkness?" Sora asked. "Meditation, and more than likely a confrontation between you and your inner turmoil." Ignis said. Sora nodded his head before heading back to the island. "I hope you succeed where your uncle failed Sora, I really do." Ignis spoke to himself.
"Riku, Kairi! I'm back!" Sora yelled as he ran towards the raft. "There you are. I need you to collect a few things." Kairi said. For the rest of the day Sora, Kairi, and Riku collected materials to finish the raft. "How far do you think a raft will take us?" Kairi asked. "I don't know, but whatever we find will be worth it." Riku said. "Sora, what do you think?"
"Huh?" Sora asked, his train of thought lost. "You've been spacing out all day. Is everything okay?" Kairi asked. "Yeah, just a lot on my mind right now." Sora explained. "Well, what do you think of the raft?" Rikku asked. "I think, that no matter what happens to us, we should promise that we will stay friends, and that our destinys will always mix together." Sora said. The trio was silent for a time. "I guess you have been thinking a lot. Well, we should get some rest. We've still got provisions to get tomorrow." Kairi said.
The next day was in fact spent with packing and collecting. "Lets see, mushrooms, where can they be." Sora said, entering the cavern. As Sora got to the main cavern, he noticed something different than usual with the strange door. "A Keyhole?" Sora asked. Indeed, where once was but a wooden surface, now housed a large yellow keyhole. Before Sora could study it further, someone kicked a rock against the wall. "Whose there?" Sora asked. He scanned the room before finding a cloaked figure in the shadows. "Reveal yourself." Sora demanded. "I've come to see the door." The figure said, walking from the shadows. "This door?" Sora asked. "Indeed. But what do you know of it." The figure asked. "Why do you want to know." Sora asked. "One who knows nothing can learn nothing." The figure said before vanishing back into the shadows. I got a bad feeling about this. Sora thought before grabbing the mushrooms and leaving the cave.
"At least after we leave I know I can always come back here." Kairi said, staring at the sunset. "Yeah, This place will always be my hometown." Sora responded. "Let's take the raft and go! Just the two of us!" Kairi said, freaking Sora out. "What's gotten into you Kairi?!" Sora asked. "Just kidding! I couldn't do that to Riku." Kairi said with a laugh. "Never change Kairi." Sora said before joining her.
That night. "Huh." He sighed, thinking of Kairi. "Hm?" Sora said noticing something out his window. "Ah! A storm! The raft will be ruined!" Sora said before changing. "Sora! Come down here." His dad yelled. He glanced at the window before running downstairs. "What's up dad?" He asked "This storm. It's unnatural. Suit up before you head out." Ignis said, his eye's not leaving the window. Sora was suprised his dad knew he planned on leaving, but he recovered before running back upstairs to changed. When he came back he saw his father in his own armor and his mother sitting at the table. "Sora. Whatever is happening to the worlds must be happening here. It's time for you to forge your own path. I don't know what will happen to us." Ignis said. His mom stood up and walled over to Sora before hugging him. "I love you, my little Sora." She said, tears falling down her face. "I love you too mom." Sora said before walking to the door. A hand was placed on his shoulder. "Sora. I'm proud of you. Now go!" Ignis said before unsheathing his sword. Sora smiled before running to his boat. "Come get some you bastards." Ignis said.
"Riku's boat. And Kairi's!" Sora discovered. A shadow appeared from the ground, right next to him. "What the heck is that thing?" Sora asked. The shadow jumped at him, claws ready to strike before Sora raised his katana to strike. The sword struck it's target, but only fazed the strange beast. "No good. I may have to use the keyblade." Sora thought aloud. He sheathed his katana and summoned the keyblade. Five more shadows phased from the ground. "These things have a liking for the Keyblade it seems." Sora said before he effortlessly cut through each of them. "Much better. Now to find Riku and Kairi." Sora said before running off for their usual place.
"Riku! We've got to go!" Sora yelled. "No Sora! Can't you see? This may be our only chance to leave!" Riku yelled. "We may never see our friends and family again, but it's worth it! I'm not afraid of the Darkness!" Riku yelled. Suddenly a field of darkness enveloped the ground. Riku held out his hand for Sora to join him. "What about Kairi? We can't leave her!" Sora yelled. "She's coming too!" Riku yelled. Dark tendrells started to wrap around Riku. "Quickly Sora, take my hand! The portal Won't stay open forever!" Riku said. Sora didn't budge. "I don't know what happened Riku, but this isn't you." Sora said unsheathing his Katana once more. Befre either could act, the shadows around Riku's feet converged upon him. swallowing Riku before dissapearing entirely.
"I have to find Kairi!" Sora said before he ran towards the waterfall. "What is this?" Sora asked. Before the cave entrance was a large ornate door. "Kairi better be in there." He said before opening the door. Inside it was much darker than normal, and a strange whirlwind like sound could be heard. "Kairi! Come on, we need to leave!" Sora yelled. Kairi turned around slowly. She looked quite pale to Sora, and her eyes were extremely dialated. "Sora." She said slowly before trying to reach out for him. The door behind her burst open, and a large gust of sand and wind shot out, sending Kairi flying towards Sora. He reached out to grab her, but she disappeared as he hugged her tight. He was then thrown out of the cave.
"What happened!?" Sora yelled. The whole island was gone, save for the piece of sand he was standing on and a few trees. Above him was a giant orb, ungelating and changing from maroon to purple every now and then. As Sora stood there in shock, a giant shadow rose from the ground. Sora summoned his Keyblade, only to see a sword swing threw the monster's arm. "Jump Sora! The Gauntlet should send you to the keep!" Ignis yelled. "Dad!?" Sora yelled in shock. Ignis ran up to his son before throwing him off the flying island. "DAAAAD!" Sora yelled. The last thing he saw was a giant hand slamming down on his father.
"Is it him?" A voice asked. "He has the gauntlet, and he came out of a portal." The voice said. "Set him down gently, he's just a boy! Much like Master Gromgard." It spoke once again. "Uhhhh." Sora groaned in pain. "Ah, he wakes." The voice said. Sora slowly opened his eyes and saw that he was surrounded by small gremlin like beasts. "Good morning Young Master."
There ya have it folks. Im super pumped for Kingdom hearts 3. And I know, this story doesnt take place in the other Overlord timelines, but I'm making it up as i go. Now, if you have a world idea, lay it on me via review, and it may just end up in the story. I bid you all adieu!
