Prologue: Returning to Where I Belong
Hey everyone! It's me sakuraphoenix, and I'm back! Yeah, yeah, I know, I know! I suck with updating, but cut me some serious slack! My laptop was on the fritz and it was just fixed! At least I'm updating, right? Okay, enough of this talk, it's time for the disclaimer!
Disclaimer: I do not own Kingdom Hearts, I also do not own Luz. Credit goes to Keybladeauraofpie. I do not own the hooded figure either. He belongs to my good friend infinitestories.
Enjoy!
I woke up to the sound of the waves in this place. The barrier of light was still surrounding me, thankfully. I quickly dispelled the barrier as I stared at the waves.
"How much time has passed since I've been down here? How are the worlds in the Realm of Light?" I wondered out loud
I took off the locket around my neck, and opened it. Inside was a picture of Lumen with his parents. He looks so happy with them. I wonder how he's doing.
Luz's P.O.V.
"Ah-choo!" sneezed Lumen
"Hey, you okay Lumen?" I asked
"Yeah. I think someone's talking about me." Said Lumen
It's been a few months since Lumen appeared on the island. He told us that he can't remember much about his past, nor about the world he came from. He's basically like Kairi. I felt sorry for him. I mean, he's about our age, and he can't remember much about where he comes from. At least he remembers who he is. That's good.
"Hey, have any of you two seen Sora?" Kairi asked as she ran up to us
"He said that he had something to take care of today." Said Lumen
"Well, tomorrow's the big crunch day. That's the last day we're making the raft, and the day after we're setting off. Tell Sora if you see him that 'if he doesn't get off that lazy bum of his soon, we might set off on our journey without him'." Said Kairi
"Don't worry. We'll tell him." Said Lumen
Hikari's P.O.V.
After a while of staring at the sea, I resorted to staring at the sky. I did get some Keyblade training in thanks to a few resident Heartless in the area. I still can't but help wonder, will I ever be able to return to the Realm of Light where I belong? Before I could think about it, a man in a black coat walked up. I summoned my Keyblade just to be safe, in case this was some trick by Master Xehanort. The figure stopped a few feet from me. The person didn't seem to do anything.
"Put that away kiddo, I ain't gonna hurt ya." Said the figure
The person was a male, and he sat down on one of the rocks in this place. I then dismissed Star of Roses.
"Who are you?" I asked
"Well… I can tell you that I've been here before… but unfortunately, it feels like the first. I don't know who I am or where I came from. Everything was wiped out in whatever currents of wind or waves carried me here." Said the man
"I see. I don't know how long I've been here, but it feels like I've been here for a long time in this realm, unable to escape." I said
"All I remember in whatever memories I have left… I remember a kid who was much like you… this kid fights to protect the worlds from falling into this realm." Said the man
"*Gasp* Is this person's name Ventus, Aqua, or Terra?" I asked
"None of those three. Sorry." Said the man
"I see. I knew it was too good to be true." I said
"How long has it been since I met him? Maybe centuries or more, but I remember that kid as if it were yesterday… he and his girlfriend fought against the enemies that faced them." Said the man
Impossible. Has that much time passed?
"It can't be… Lumen?" I wondered
"Perhaps. I don't recall." Said the man
"I see." I said sadly
"He was the only person I considered to be a friend, until Xehanort and Vanitas invaded." Said the man
So… this person's life was too destroyed by Xehanort. How many lives must you destroy until you get what you want?
"How sad. I'm so sorry." I said
"It's not your fault. He ruined my home and killed many innocent lives. I can't blame you for getting mad. I remember an old friend once said to me 'let go of the past, and move on'." Said the man
He then pulled out a pitch-black wayfinder. The wayfinder was white at the tips, and appeared to be made from some kind of metal.
"My girlfriend gave this to me." Said the man
"It's beautiful." I said
"This reminds me of how special to me she once was." Said the man
"I see." I said
I then pulled out the wayfinder I made with all of the different colored shells.
"I have this… to remind me of my friends, and family." I said
The purple shell then began to shine brightly all of a sudden, and it then created a door of light.
"Farewell then, friend." Said the man
"Um, yeah. I have a good feeling that I know where this portal will take me." I said
"Then take this with you." Said the man
He gave me a yellowish white wayfinder. It was the same design as his.
"This belonged to my best friend. Be sure to use it wisely." Said the man
I didn't want to take something that held an important memory to him, but… I figured that he's giving it to me for a reason.
"Thank you." I said
I then entered through the portal, and when I exited it, I was in the Realm of Light, at Destiny Islands.
"I'm… I'm home. I'm finally home." I said to myself
I felt something sharp on my hand, and I noticed that the purple shell was completely shattered. That's when I noticed that my clothes had changed. I was now in a red plaid mini-skirt with black lace, black stockings, purple sneakers, a white button-up blouse, and a translucent vest. My hair was now in low twin tails; maybe to disguise myself, I'm not so sure. My armlet was still there, and my locket was conceiled under the blouse. I also had some kind of belt on me too. My deactivated armor and wayfinders were in one of the pouches, and all of my Keychains for my Keyblades were in the other.
"The purple shell completely shattered. Something's happened to grandfather, and I don't know what." I said out loud
Done and done! Whew, this took me a while to write, but above and all, I finally have it done! Please review, check out my poll, and until next time, I'm sakuraphoenix, saying I heart you, signing off for now. Kan dao ni!
