Chapter 1
Auralei
The setting sun captured the true beauty of Twilight Town. At least, that's what Olette felt. She was about 16 with brown hair and green wearing a orange tank top shirt with flowers on it and white caprice and tennis shoes. She and her friends were gathered in the special hangout in the back alley there, and she was ashamed of missing that sunset.
"Come on, guys!" Olette whined. "I really want to see that sunset!"
Hayner, a 16 year old blonde haired boy with brown eyes wearing a camouflage vest over a black tank top with green jean pants and tennis shoes, retaliated her. "We see the sunset every night perfectly from here. Besides if we did manage to make it to the hill, it would probably be too late." he folded his arms and stood up from the old couch that was there.
"Quit being pessimistic, Hayner!" Pence ordered. Pence was about 16, too, and he had black hair and green eyes and wore a red/white hair band along with a red and white shirt and blue jeans and tennis shoes, too. "I think it's a great idea!" He also got off of the couch and looked at Olette.
"Okay that's two for the cause. What do you think, Auralei?" Olette asked.
Auralei was 16 and had long blonde hair and blue eyes. She was sitting in the corner, between the couch and the wall. And she wore baggy black-pants that unzipped to different lengths, 4 lengths exactly (shorts, above-the-knee, caprice, and then pants), except the top zipper on the left leg was stuck so it was unzipped halfway. Then she wore a short, hooded, long sleeved jacket that also had zippers to adjust to the 4 lengths (No sleeves, short sleeves, three-quarter sleeves, and long sleeves). Under that she wore a white halter top shirt. On her feet she wore some gray and black tennis shoes, around her neck was a chain and upon it was a crown charm, and upon her hands were thin, black, finger-less gloves. She was staring at the ground and didn't answer Olette.
"Aura!" Olette got her attention.
Aura looked as if she had just been startled awake. "Oh, huh?"
"Do you want to go see the sunset?" Pence asked her. Olette looked at her intently and from the hind both of them Hayner was crossing both of his hands in front of his neck trying to give her the hint to say no.
Auralei looked at the pleading look in Olette's eyes. "Sure, I guess so." She said and in the background Hayner slapped his forehead.
Then Olette turned around to Hayner with a smile on her face. "Hah, 3 to 1, so that means we are going!" She stated then she turned around and headed out of the alley with Pence. Then she added behind her, "Meet you at the train station. The train doesn't wait for anyone!" Then they were gone.
Hayner walked over and offered his hand to Auralei. "You obviously didn't get the hint did you?" He asked.
"I guess I wasn't really inside my own head. Besides Olette was all happy and I didn't want to make her sad and besides you're always depressed or mad at someone." Auralei said taking his hand and was being hauled off of the floor.
"True." Hayner said put his hand up to his chin and smiled. "But we better get going to the train station before Olette gets mad at us now."
Auralei smiled back at him. "Okay." Then they both headed to the train station.
They came to the steps of the building in fits struggling for air. There was Olette and Pence waiting.
"There you are!" Olette said. "We've already have your tickets and the trains about to leave let's go!" She yelled and ran into the station gesturing the others after her.
The car to Sunset Square was empty, except for them. There were two on each side of the small car Pence and Auralei on one side with Hayner across from her sitting next to Olette. They were talking about something but Auralei didn't care, she was trying to remember her past that had been a blur, the first memory she remember of her life was washing up on Twilights Town's beach when she was 9. She couldn't remember anything before that. But she knew it had to deal with darkness and chaos. But it didn't matter anymore, she had friends and a good life.
Auralei was drifting off in her own thoughts when she was brought back to the train car when Hayner punched her knee.
"Hey," He said. "If were having to see this sunset I need the company of a sane person, so don't you go getting spacey on me."
Auralei smiled at Hayner and everyone else and the rest of the time she sat in silence listening to their conversation.
The train finally pulled at the train station and they all ran through the town and to the hill.
"Ahhh!" Pence whined. "We missed the sunset."
Olette thought with her arms crossed then Auralei came up with the answer.
"We can watch the moonrise!" She stated.
They all seemed to agree to that idea. So they all sat there on the edge of the hill, overlooking the train tracks, watching the sky darken and one by one as the stars came out, and finally the moon rise.
"Oooooooooh! That is so pretty!" Olette said looking up at the full moon near the center of the sky.
"Well," Hayner started getting up, stretching. "Obviously, it getting late, so I suggest we better go." Then he waited as Pence and Olette got up too.
"I agree with Hayner this time." Pence said. "We should go now."
"Yeah." said Olette. "I've had my fun." She stated.
Hayner went and stood over Auralei who was on her back looking at the moon. "Are you coming?" He asked her.
Auralei shook her head. "Sure, I'll catch up in a couple minutes."
"Okay." Aura heard Olette said and they all left her there on the hill.
She laid there for what seem like an eternity, staring at the moon on the black canvas of the sky.
Then suddenly in a far off distance she heard screams. Auralei blink and now above her face was she thought looked like a large black ant. She didn't panic for she knew that whatever it was could've hurt her. Auralei just lay there and felt a dark presence from the creature and felt that same feeling multiply around her and the screaming in the background seemed more frequent.
Then a very powerful presence engulfed that dark presence around her and dissipated it.
Only then did she dare open her eyes. In front of her stood a 16 year old boy with spiky brown hair. He wore a black jacket with short sleeves, trimmed in white which had shoulder pads that was connected with a piece of yellow material. Underneath he wore a navy blue shirt with a large, red pocket that was disconnected from his black caprice/shorts (that were kinda poofy) by a blue belt. on his hips he wore these red and black satchels that were held there by yellow belts. He wore yellow and black shoes. He was holding what looked like a gigantic key to her that had a gold handle and a silver blade.
He was facing away from her and he said something that she couldn't understand.
"What?" She asked him.
Then he turned around, and his key dissipated, to face Aura with his amazingly blue eyes. He smiled and bent down to his knees. "I had asked you if you were okay." He stated.
She sat up. "Yeah I'm okay." She said.
"That's good to know." He stood up.
"Wait! What about Hayner, Pence, and Olette?!" Auralei asked him.
"They're alright, I made sure of it. They're my friends too." Then he offered Aura his hand. She took it and she was pulled up from the ground.
Then the little black, ant-looking creatures circled around them and the boy and Auralei stood back to back. His key reappeared.
"Run now!" He yelled.
"No, I'm sorry, but I can't have you take on all of these things at once." Auralei said to him. Out of the corner of her eye she saw him smirk.
"Okay, if you insist." He said and he sliced a the head of one of the creatures that just jumped at him.
So there they stood for a couple minute slicing and, in Aura's case, kicking the creatures.
Then after all of the puny little guys were defeated Sora (yes it's Sora) and Aura relaxed for a moment when a hand of a huge monster swiped Sora across the ground and into a big rock, and he dropped his key blade were he used to stand.
Aura looked at Sora's condition and decided it was alright to pick up his key.
Sora watched in amazement as Aura swung at the monsters with his key blade. NO ONE WAS ABLE TO USE HIS KEYBLADE EXCEPT THOSE WHO WERE CONNECTED TO HIM, for example Roxas.
Aura was confounded at how the boy was able to wield this large unlocking device as a weapon. To her, at this moment, it was abnormal to be holding a gigantic key. But soon she found her rhythm in swinging it and was able to take out 10 enemies with each single slash.
But then the dark beings started to multiply exponentially, without comprehension. They gathered up around her and began to form this gigantic wave that came crashing down on her.
Sora watched in pure shock. She was able to wield this weapon like it was her own. But then the real terror in him was realized. With that amount of Heartless that toppled on top of her, that amount of darkness, she might actually die.
He watched as slowly the Heartless began compacting, most likely crushing the poor girl. She just happened to be an innocent bystander and now he was responsible for her death. If only I was a bit strongerHe thought, I might happen been able to protect her. He watched helplessly from his spots on the ground.
Then something weird happened. The Heartless wave started expanding and light filtered through the gaps between each Heartless. Sora watched as the light started to tear the Heartless to shreds. They were decimated. And the source of this power seemed to be emanating from the girl.
Swirls of black and white came from her figure and were eliminating the Heartless. Finally when all of them were defeated, the strange swirls stopped and then the girl dropped the key blade and fell to the ground unconscious. Sora got to his feet at the same time Riku came bounding up the hill.
"Sora! What happened? I saw this gigantic light and---"
"It was her!" Sora yelled, freaking out and interrupting Riku. "It was all her. She was able to use my key blade and everything. She created that light and decimated all the heartless in the area!"
"Sora, calm down!" Riku ordered him.
Sora paced a couple steps and then looked back at Riku. "Well, how do you do that when you think you're going to be responsible for the loss of someone's life and then she just………KABOOOOOOOOMS!!" He makes a gigantic exploding motion with his hands.
"Sora, just calm down." Riku said in a soothing voice. Sora began pacing with his hands behind his head taking deep breaths. After a minute he took this deep breath and then exhaled, his arms came down to his sides and he walked back to Riku.
"Better?" Riku asked.
"Much." stated Sora. "So, umm, what are we going to do with her?" He said gesturing to her body.
"Well," Riku began. "If she contains that much power as you say, then I think that we should take her in to see Mickey and Merlin."
"Good idea." Sora said and he went over picked up his key blade and then it dissipated, then he went to pick up the girl. He walked, with Riku at his side, with her cradled to his chest all the way out of Twilight Town.
