Title: Iridescent Hearts (Challenge fic)

Chapter 1's Theme and Pairing/s: Meeting; Repliku x Namine

Disclaimer: No owny Kingdom Hearts. Challenge belongs to xDarknessAngelx.

I've been losing my touch with Kingdom Hearts, and I totally blame Ib and Kagerou Project. -_- Anyway, since I'm more or less on a break from the KH fandom, the only KH fics I'll be updating will be this and Serendipity, which is almost done amg- And this will be the last challenge I'm ever taking uwu

Feel free to request a couple, be it a platonic or romantic pair! I ship a ton of things anyway. But please, no AkuRoku. Or pairings that involve Lexaeus and Vexen. uvu

Chapter takes place during CoM. Or is more like a prologue to CoM. :3


She draws and draws and draws. The blue crayon she holds in her hand rapidly becomes smaller as she draws messy lines which she pays no heed to. The blonde wordlessly smiles as she slowly sees her own image - a clumsy piece of work, but still she sees herself - on the paper. Satisfied, she places it on the white table and leans on her chair, sighing wistfully.

Namine places her hands over her lap as she steals a glance at the door. By now, she's already so used to the silence that overwhelms the room as she doodles. Other than Axel, no one really bothered to check up on her since the others very well knew that she couldn't escape on her own. Not that she really plans to do so. She never really knew if she had any other purpose for leaving this place. So she sticks around simply because she has nowhere else to go.

Though I really do want a friend...

She knows she's lonely, and just the fragmented feeling of solitude gets to her. She yearns for companionship, and for someone to appreciate her art just as much as she does, no matter how amateurish her scribbles are.

The blonde girl closes her eyes and clasp her hands together as she places them in front of her lips. She utters the same silent wish that she so badly wants since the day her existence began. It seems odd for a Nobody to hope for something with all her nonexistent Heart. Namine even doubts that her little prayer would ever come true, but it was nice to dream...

And when she finishes saying her silent hopes, the door suddenly flies open. Her eyes snap open and Namine wants to at least squeak from surprise, but is stunned to silence when a silver-haired boy walks in the room and stares at her.

When ocean blue eyes meet aquamarine orbs, Namine suddenly finds herself thankful that her one simple wish has come true.
