HIYA, PEOPLE! This is my first attempt at an extended story, so please don't be to rough on me. I'm nervous enough as it is, and just as a warning... I. Plan. Nothing.

Yes, you read correctly. In EVERY story I've ever written (but not posted) I didn't think ahead and just made things up as I went. It still turned out awesome and got a ton of compliments, so I think that I'll try that with this, too. Just for kicks, I'm gonna multi-task. Don't forget to vote in my poll, and I do take suggestions from the dear reviewers (you people) so give me my next story topic!

ME: But now, who will I get to say the disclaimer? HHHHMMM... How about you?

Riku: Don't you have me doing enough in this story already?

ME: YEP! But you're strong enough to handle one session of saying that I don't own anything Kingdom Hearts related unless it's an original idea of mine.

Riku: Well, that takes care of that.

ME: Huh?

Riku: You just gave the disclaimer yourself, so now I don't have to

ME:(blushes furiously in embarrassment) RIKU!!!!!!(makes a fist and before he can react... kicks him in the shin while he's watching my hands)

Riku: OW!

Entire KH Cast: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!! (laughter at Riku's expense)

ME: Well, I should probably let you get reading

CHAPTER 1: Awakening

It was a surprisingly warm day for Western Washington. The sun was hidden behind grey clouds that cast shadow over the entire area, but that was normal around here. However, what WASN'T normal was that the ground was bone dry instead of soaking up leftover water from the storm the previous night.

A girl woke with a start before her alarm had even begun to sound. A few minutes later...

BEEP! BEEP! BEEP!

Fifteen year-old Miyu Kazuki rolled over onto her back. Did she really want get up just yet? Today was her last day of her first year in high-school, and it hadn't gone very well. That's not to say that Miyu was an idiot. On the contrary, because her IQ was in the two-hundreds. No, she wasn't stupid. Just lazy. VERY lazy.

Her work ethic didn't match very well with the lifestyle that was set for her, though. She is an only child, and her father, Takeshi Kazuki, is constantly away in travels. The man only makes contact with his last remaining family once a month, and comes HOME once every twelve. Miyu was forced to practically raise herself since her mothers passing when she was only seven.

"Ugh, I SOOO don't wanna get up right now!" she practically growled in irritation due to the fact that it was only five o'clock in the morning. "AND WILL YOU JUST SHUT UP ALREADY?!?!?!?!" yelled the teen as her hand smashed down on her alarm clock. Miyu rolled out of her uncomfortable twin sized bed and onto the floor, tangled in what was her half-dozen blankets.

Once freed, she set to work. Gathering her clothes for the day, hairbrush, and deodorant, she bound down the long and empty hallway to the basement bathroom(1)for her daily routine to commence. A twenty minute shower in boiling hot water always made her exhaustion dissipate. Once out, she dressed in her clothes that consisted of a white spaghetti-strap tank top, a thin, black long-sleeved T-shirt over top of it. Over those two rested a grey, zip up vest with what appeared to be black ink spots and a hood, the zipper left undone so the vest was open. On her right arm was a white home-made long glove that ended just before her elbow, and on her left hand was a home-made white glove that barely reached her wrist. Both articles were fingerless. Covering her legs were a pair of dark grey skinny jeans being held up by a plain black belt. She wore a pair of Air Walks for her shoes. They were cloth high-tops that were a deep red, almost brown, color with black roses making up a majority of the shoe pattern. on the outside part of both heels was a yellow heart with the word "LOVE" printed in bold letters over top a white ribbon design. the toes of both shoes that were rubber, as well as the bottom edge, were white with a lavender tint.

Quickly, Miyu ran a brush through her hair. Her hair was one of the strangest colors you would ever see. It's main color was a dark blond with natural light blond highlights. But that isn't why her hair was strange. She also had natural crimson red streaks running through her fine hair. Unlike most teenage girls, Miyu didn't feel the urge to wear make-up. Her light colored skin was blemish free, and her turquoise eyes popped enough as it was.

Her bathroom routine was finally complete after applying her pear scented deodorant, and she slowly made her way back to her room to dispose of her light weight pajama's inside her hamper. With a glance at her clock, the girl groaned. it wasn't even six o'clock yet, and already she was ready to leave for her half day of school (she didn't need to bring her bag to school that day).

"Why doesn't it take me longer to get ready in the morning?" she whispered quietly to herself. Making Miyu jump for the third time that morning, her cell phone rang from her bedside table. Spotting the name written on the front screen of her phone, she knew who was calling (A/n Ah, the miracles of caller ID).

"Hurry your tiny but outside! I'm already there and don't feel like waiting for another forty minutes!" bellowed Miyu's best friend, Selena, from the other end of the line. Selena was... Well, she was... She was as different as any one person could get. With her tanned skin, dark blue hair and light red eyes, she stood out like a sore thumb. She had a personality to match, too.

"Just be patient," snickered Miyu from her end of the line. "I'm just grabbing me key, then I'll be outside. See ya." With that, the Line went dead. Miyu quickly grabbed a golden chain with a black key hanging off the end, clasped it around her neck, and bolted out the door.

"Jeez, you know how to take forever, don't you?" asked Selena with feigned frustration.

"Sorry," muttered Miyu while she glanced back at her house from the sidewalk. "Well, let's go then," she added to her apology.

"You look even more tired than usual," Selena noted. " Is your Insomnia getting worse?" she asked with sincere concern.

"No, it's not that. I had another strange dream again, only this time, I fell into something that looked like a black hole while all of Lacey was getting destroyed. That's when I woke up," said Miyu, her voice shaking with slight fear.

"Maybe you should talk to your da-"

"I refuse to talk to that irresponsible old man that's supposed to be my father," spat Miyu, cutting Selena off mid- sentence. She only ever used that tone when speaking of the parent who all but abandoned her.

"Sorry. I forgot again."

"It's alright, but can we hurry up and get to the school? I feel like someone's watching me, and it's creeping me out."

"Alright," agreed the girl with red eyes, glad that her BFF wasn't angry with her. "Let's go." With that said, their talk ceased. Little did the two innocent school girls know that they WERE being watched.

"Reporting in," claimed a tall figure as it emerged from a dark portal.

"What have you information have you collected?" asked a female with a deeper voice.

"That's the girl alright, and she's completely clueless, but if we don't hurry and move,it won't stay that way," the dark man stated in a monotone.

"Very well," the woman replied coolly. "you shall bring her here before tonight's sunset, understood?"

"Loud and clear," the man said as a devious smile formed on his lips.

1) MY bedroom is in the basement with a very long walk to the bathroom that's up the stairs.

Well? Whaddaya think for a first chapter? I kinda got irritated trying to describe them vividly with as little words as possible. Feel free to ask about anything that confused you or any idea's that you may have for this fic, cuz I SERIOUSLY don't plan these things ahead of time. I'll try and update this story soon, but it's like, what, 1:30 in the morning? I'm tired! When I get my newest idea's going, I'll type away AND update as soon as I'm finished. Until then, JA MATA NE!
