This is a KH fanfiction, yes, but it's introducing my OC, Kirox. Follow his tale, and watch the adventure unfold! Sorry, it's so short, I'm also doing this for a english grade, and it had a 1k word limit
Disclaimer: I do not own KH or Final Fantasy 7! Even though I wish I did, I don't. If I did, then Zack Wouldn't die!*cries* Okay, let's get started:
After stealing the man with spiky black hair's wallet, the dirty blond headed boy ran. Dashing through the marketplace of Midgar's Sector 7 slums, he hid in the best spot he knew. "I don't want to steal, the boy thought to himself, but I have no choice." After hiding for about ten minutes, the boy slipped out from his hiding place, only to find the black haired man glaring at him. "Run, run away!" the boy thought to himself, but before he could, the man grabbed his shoulder and locked the boy in an inescapable grasp. "There you are," the man hissed at him, clearly angry. "Zack, we talked about this." another voice said, belonging to the young woman standing beside him, unnoticed by the boy. "Hi Aerith." He said timidly. She walked up to them, hiding her small smile at his mannerisms, compared to his usual attitude and boastfullness. "Why did you steal Zack's wallet, Kirox?" She asked. Embarressed, he lowered his eyes. "A monster ate mine." he whispered, ashamed.
"Then why did you steal his? You could have earned it back with time." "That's the thing. I needed the money now." the boy, Kirox, responded. "But why steal mine?" the man, (Zack was his name?) questioned. "Because you looked like you had enough. Unfortuonataly, I was wrong. Dead wrong." "Hey!" Zack yelled, angry. "but why did you need the money at all?" Aerith questioned gently. "My mom. She's very sick, and we can't afford medicine. I would be able to, but those stupid monsters ate it." he said. 'Well, that's a sad story, kid. Tell you what, I'll go get your wallet back." Zack said. "I'll give 'em a taste of this!" He said, pulling out a dangerous looking sword and waving it around. Kirox immediatly ducked, "Watch out!" He says, barely avoiding it. "Watch where you're swinging that!" He yells at Zack. "Put the sword down, Zack." Aerith calmly tells him. "Fine... but where are the monsters?" Zack responds. "In the park." Kirox tells him, pointing in the direction that the park was. "I'll be back." Zack said, running off in the indicated direction.
-5 minutes later-
Zack ran back, his sword bloody. He handed Kirox his wallet, which was soaked with stomach acid and was covered in burns from it. "Here you go." He said, and then held out his hand for his wallet, which Kirox immediatly handed to him. 'Thank you for getting my wallet back, even if it is a little damaged. at least the money's safe." "Geez, you're welcome. No need to give me a reward or anything."Zack responded sarcastically. "Zack!" Aerith said, elbowing him. "What! I said he didn't have to!" He replied. As they went on, uncountiously flirting, Kirox smiled to himself, then walked away. As he did, he thought to himself, "Zack, huh? I'll ask Aerith more about him when I see her next." He decided to himself.
-4 years later-
"Hey Aerith! What's up?" Kirox, now 16, asked her, walking into the abandoned church where she grew flowers. To his suprise, he saw her crying. "What's up?" he asked her. The 16 year-old had just joined the soldier program, after learning from Aerith that that was where Zack had gotten so strong from. He'd sworn to himself that he'd get strong enough that he would be able to protect anyone, and help those who couldn't help themselves. He'd gotten his first mako injection, and his brown eyes were beginning to turn sky blue, the same as everyone in the SOLDIER program. Aerith was shocked because of the unfamliar eyes, then remembered something Zack had said before he'd gone on his final mission, 4 years ago. That had been the last time she'd seen him. *flashback*
"Like my eyes?" he'd asked, sitting with her in the park. "Yeah, why?" She remembered asking him. "Mako infused. Proof of a SOLDIER."*end flashback*
With a start, Aerith realized she hadn't respondeed to Kirox. "Zack... Died." kirox's eyes opened in shock. "What! That's impossible!" he protested. "Unfortuonetaly, it is." "How?" Kirox asled, his gaze pleading."I don't know. Tsung came by, and told me that he was killed by Shinra." "What!" Kirox yelled, jumping up from a croutch. "I'm quitting SOLDIER. When I get back." he muttered darkly. "You cant!" Aerith told him. "And why not?" He demanded a response from her."Because, Zack would've wanted you learn how to defend yourself, and others." "You're right." He admitted. "But I'll avenge him. I'm just gonna collect powerfull materia! And soon, I'll be first class, like Zack was." She laughed at his cheerfullness, and eternal optimism. You're more like him every day... She thought to herself, thinking back at Zack's similar personality. Hopefully what happened to him won't happen to you.
Well, that's off to a start! I (hopefully) Will update soon! Review, and Kirox will give you a cookie! With Sora on it! *Eats a cookie*
