The Awakening...

However long the night, the dawn will break


She opened her eyes with a groan, her mind felt fuzzy and her head pounded as if someone had taken a sledgehammer and banged it repeatedly on said brain.

Blinking she tried to see through the endless abyss of darkness clouding her vision; it cleared enough to reveal to her that the only source of light was coming from the single barred window.

Upon closer inspection she realized this wasn't her house, frowning she stared intently out the window, acknowledging the strange presence of the heart shaped moon casting an eerie glow about the city below.

"Where am I?"

She heard a chuckle to the left of her bed and her head snapped over instinctively to the direction of the noise, squinting in the inky darkness she could just make out the silhouette of someone in a thick black cloak with a hood that withheld their face from view, she inched back slightly wanting to get away from the strange person her head supplied and she almost snorted the thing could be like a mutant or something.

This move only made them chuckle further, judging from the tone it was a guy but she couldn't be sure, the man finally spoke in a voice that brought a chill to her spine, he spoke with authority and supremacy and underlined with a unmatched cruelness.

"The question is not where are you, but who are you, tell me do you remember your true name?"

She sat back confused as she tried desperately to remember her name; her family anything but her mind drew a blank.

She looked to the man in despair; he let out a deep chuckle his hood flapped in the wind as he made his way over to the bedside, letting it fall off revealing long silver hair and penetrating amber eyes.

"Very well your new name is…"

Letters rose into the air around him cloaking the room in a silver light and she watched enthralled as they rearranged themselves, exploding in a tower of light that passed through the roof becoming a shining beacon of ethereal light that could be seen from miles away.

"Xentith...interesting...My name is Xemnas"

Xentith mulled it over in her head, finding herself nodding absentmindedly, her lips tilted in a small smile and she watched as the silver haired man nodded approvingly at her.

"Very well then, tell me do you want a purpose, a place where you will be needed?"

Something in his words struck a cord in her and she drew her knees up to her chin wrapping her arms around them as she fell into deep thought.

"Yes..."

He pulled his hood back up just in time to hide his victorious smirk as he stared at his possible new addition, it all depended on her answer, he would force her if he had to,he wouldn't let them get her.

"Would you like to come with me?"

Xentith's breath hitched as she was knocked out of her thinking, on one hand she had nowhere to go, no munny no food and on the other she had shelter, food and she would be wanted, she made her choice.

"Yes"

Xemnas outstretched a hand to her and took as step back allowing her to stand, she placed her own significantly smaller hand in his own large one and they disappear in a portal of darkness.

Meanwhile in another part of the castle Xemnas and Xentith reappeared via portal, in Xemnas' office, he tugged her over slightly to the closet, she took note of the many black cloaks that hung there in all sizes and shapes.

"We shall find you some appropriate attire"

Xentith raised her eyebrow in questioning, confusion ran through her head but she wisely decided to keep silent, suddenly she felt that headache start to come back.

She took a passing glance at the closet and she found herself drawn to her reflection she stared at it in wonder.

She had fine, straight, midnight black hair that was waist-length with a side fringe covering her left eye, she had slitted amethyst eyes that looked reminiscent of a cat, her skin was as white as snow, she couldn't help thinking she looked like the shy yet sweet kid from a child's anime.

She frowned slightly noticing how Xemnas towered over her short stature easily as he placed cloak after cloak against her trying to find the right size.


"Dare to reach out your hand into the darkness, to pull another hand into the light." ~ Norman B. Rice


Xemnas frowned 'She's so small, I don't have anything that fits her, no-one does...' He placed a finger to his chin in deep thought, then it hit him like a proverbial bus 'That's it, Roxas would have one!'

Then he frowned again 'But still they would be too big for her, oh well I'll deal with this later...' he glanced at her, she looked like a ten year old, not it was worse than that, she was a ten year old.

That thought alone made him sigh, she would be a handful in the future but it was worth it he could sense the dormant powers held within her, he turned his eyes to Kingdom Hearts as it shone brightly above the desolate city, bathing it in it's light.

"What did I do to deserve this?"

It didn't answer...

Well, here is the first chapter, keep in mind I wrote this before I made my account, now this is my first OC fanfic so be warned it will be really bad.
