Prologue
There we were sitting around a campfire like old friends, the only thing that could be heard was the cackling of the balanced fire. Hi, I'm Fira a master of the keyblade and a fanfic author… I've written multiple stories on that site Haha that's funny ain't it? Master of the keyblade. Yea, yea I know it sounds weird but this is no joke. I truly am a keyblade master, atleast in this crazed world I am. I hold and gaze upon the keyblade as I speak these words. I'm only one of the seven authors in this fic, yea I know your probably thinking what there's more of you wackos! Yea as a matter o factly there are, Utada, Raithu, Avalon, Kuro, an Kiako. I kinda blame myself for them being here in the first place I'm the one carrying the most burden here. For if anything happens to them it'll be my fault.
How I came to wield such an unrealistic blade, come to meet 7 author's that live across the earth and see a completely different world where things you'd never thought possible existed?
I dunno, hey I'm just a 16 year old author, who is searching for a way home I don't have all of the secrets to life.
But I can tell you how it all started. Interested?
Well if your still reading then I guess so right?
Location: Fira's House, Tallahassee, Florida
Time: 12:45am
Narrator: Fira
Today started out normal enough.I woke up outta bed with the help of my annoying alarm clock, ya know the digital ones that go BEEP BEEP BEEP I swear it's enough to wake up an elephant. To turn it off I would pick up my dumbbell and bam the darn thing until it cuts off. After doing so I lazily got out of bed and walked over to my window, it was Saturday no need at all to rush things. I opened the blinds pouring light into my room to reveal My Entire Dragon Ball Z, Final Fantasy and football posters. Right along with my TV, bed with spiderman sheets, dresser, mirror and computer. I walked over to my radio and cut it on to listen to rapping of Twista and Kanya West's song Slow Jamz.
I bobbed my head to the beat as I walked over to my desk and sat down to the computer. The computer was on but the monitor was off. I pressed the little button and monitor cut on, Dell's are so cool.
" Hey Fira! Fira are you awake?" My mom called from downstairs.
" Yea MOM!" I shouted as leaned back to the beat of the music.
" Well come on down I have something for ya" She replied. Right then I jumped up from my seat and dashed through my door. Downstairs, through the kitchen and into the den where my mom was sitting going through some business papers.
" Yea?" I asked.
" Here this came for you in the mail" She handed me a box about the size of a Playstation 2 disk case.
"Hey it's probably that Kingdom Hearts Final Mix I ordered on the Internet." I said taking the disk from her and opening it. On the cover was in bold letters RPG MAKER.
" What the…" As I gazed upon the word "maker" a lot o thought went through my mind. What the hell's an RPG maker?
Right now I'm starting to regret the curiosity I have.
I took the packet upstairs and into my room. I then closed my door and sat down at my desk, I opened the case to review a folded up piece of notebook paper. On the piece of paper was a note it read:
"Tired of RPG's that don't produce the proper challenge? Make one of your own with twice the intensity and twice the damage with an RPG maker!"
I rolled over on my desk chair over to my radio. I cut it off then rolled over to my computer and popped the disk in. On the front screen came up a window that had RPG Maker 0 on it. I clicked on the word start, with that various windows came up. I clicked on Character's on the characters list was awhole bunch of characters from FF7 to X2, Tales of Symphonia, Xenosaga, Kingdom Hearts, Dragon Ball Z and Legend of Dragoon. When I saw this, my mouth dropped completely. I then referred to the note again and went over the words " MAKE YOUR OWN!"
A wide grin grew amongst my face as I saw this. The only thing wrong in the picture was the graphics, it looked as if everything was on gameboy. But none the less it had Cloud in it. And any RPG with Cloud Strife in it is the RPG for me.
After about an hour of tinkering with the status I got the feel for this RPG maker. I was going through windows preparing items and the battle systems. IT was very compelling but hey what can I say? I'm a compelled guy! Why I'm at this little story why not let you guys in on what I was doing.
Battling/ Card Use
In the fights, like Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories, the entire thing is based on Cards, there are five different types of cards, Magic Cards (Blue), Attack Physical Cards (Red), Summon Cards(Green), Dark Cards(Black) and Key Cards(Gold).
Using a weapon without a card is useless, your weapon would pass right through your opponent like a ghost through a wall. Using these special cards is how you attack, you must fuse your Card with your weapon to execute an attack. But once you used that attack or even swing it once at your opponent the card disappears thus you must pull another card from your deck.
Example: My weapon of choice is the keyblade (Kingdom Key) for instance. A Heartless shows up and attacks me, it tries to hit me but I jump back dodging the blow. I run up to the heartless and attacks but the keyblade does 0 damage to the heartless. Heartless tries to strike me back but his claw goes right through me.
(See no effect cards control everything in this world, now this is how attacking goes)
Example: I pull out a card and slap the card onto the Keyblade, the card disappears and the keyblade starts to glow with a thin lining of blue aura on it.
(The card is fused with the keyblade now the keyblade isn't ghosted anymore)
Example: I run up to the heartless and attack it once, the heartless with a card attached to it's body takes the hit and counters back. After the card pops off of the keyblade and disappears and Keyblade looses it's aura.
(Don't worry about the card that disappears they reappear when your deck goes on Empty)
Got all of that… Using the Summon cards, Magic cards and Dark cards are exactly the same. With alittle differences, Just press on the Summon Card once and the Aeon appears.
Example: Utada is surrounded by heartless she then pulls out a Summon card and presses her finger on the print of the card while concentrating on the Summon creature. From a circle of light Simba appears and Roars destroying all of the heartless that surround her.
(Like that but you gotta keep in mind that summoning takes a long time to do never let yourself get surrounded and try to summon make sure your at a good distance, Using magic is the exact same way except there isn't such a long wait.)
Dark Cards however are completely different, When using a Darkness Card it's like using the Garment Grid in FFX-2 temporarily you gain powers of the Dark changing your appearance and permits you for a set time to attack without using cards. Sounds cool right? But apparently it's not because once a dark card is used your entire deck becomes useless until the battle is over so if you have to use a darkness card make damn sure your gonna win the battle before you change back.
Example: the huge heartless Darkside attacks Raithu. Raithu slams his battle-ax down and pulls out a darkness card. His hair changes from red to silver and his attire change to that of the black knight his axe then represents that of Soul Edge with the eyeball and the dark blade color. Raithu slams his axe down and dark aura travels through the ground blowing Darkside to particles. After that fearsome attack Raithu turns back hair color, armor and battle-ax in a fatigued state.
(The only time MP matters in this game is when your in Dark State when the MP reaches zero you change back to normal with MP the cards are useless. The cards don't reduce MP but it needs MP to stay useful)
Get it? Oh and Key cards are just something that the characters use to get through doors.
The World
I created this world where some of the worlds of Kingdom Hearts, Final Fantasy and Tales of Symphonia to co exist.

The only thing I need to work on is the character OC's the plot and the monsters I figured I'd just put heartless instead of monsters cause it's a hell of a lot easier and I was anxious to play this.
Little did I know that's where I messed up…I started input heartless codes to get all of them. Except one thing went wrong one thing that I thought was minor. As I typed I noticed a small black area in the side of my computer with what seemed to be Heartless with strange blue markings on it crawling out. They slowly to take over my computer screen bit by bit eating up information and damaging my Dell beyond repair. The entire monitor turned black and all at once the computer suddenly jolted black and blue bolts out. It was gonna blow I jumped down on my warm floor covering my head, as unexpected nothing happened! Everything was… normal. I looked up at the harddrive to see it hadn't blown up, but the monitor was still black. But the weird thing is that… it looked to be broken or cracked. I got up on level and placed my hand on the surface of the broken screen. From one of the cracks a card that slipped out. The card was shaped funny though, the card itself was shaped like a flat crown. On the card was a picture of 7 hearts, I rubbed the print of the card it was very smooth on my skin. Suddenly the card shot a small spark ya know that kinda spark you get when you knock to rocks together. With that on the computer screen a faint but still their picture of a door showed up. I felt the card in my hand it seemed to be vibrating, reacting to this mysterious dilated door. The card escaped from my hand and slapped onto the computer monitor. And the card seemed to have somewhat of a hole in the center it looked big enough for a rat to get in but no bigger. Like a dumb shit I sat there and just observed the hole then the wind started to pick up in my room. Which was weird cuz the AC wasn't on nor was the ceiling fan. My papers and documents started swirling around the room. I sat there in amazement of this magic show.
" Cool" I said as the card wind started to grab me. I felt myself starting to slowly lift from my chair. Then in one huge tug I seemed to fit through the hole in the card… I started flying through a huge tunnel with numbers and electric currents running past me. I laughed the entire way while yelling WOOOHOOO!
Looking back on that now… I'm such an immature little twit…
I reached the end of the tunnel where the bright light was there to greet me. I started falling from the sky, now this wasn't cool! I started scream on my way down I was headed straight for a meadow of trees. Just inches before I was about to hit the dirt my body slowed down and I landed on my butt.
" Ah man the rides over?" I asked laughing aloud. I looked around… I was… I was uh where was I anyway?
Even now I still don't know the place I first got here from?Looking around I was in a forest or jungle. What's the difference between a forest and a jungle anyway. I stood up and looked down at my attire. A tank top and blue pajama pants with some bunny rabbit footies. I stroked my dread locks and with the rubber band on my right wrist I tied my hair back. I never really had in mind what's here or what was in stored for me. I'm not the kinda kid that would think before I act! I kept walking until I came to a clearing in this clearing was a huge tree stomp on the stomp was some folded cloths, a giant key and a stack of cards that had a small strap holding them all together.
" Hey!" I looked left and right for any witnesses. " All mine!" I grabbed the cloths and they turned out to be pretty cool and they fit too! It turned out to be a white vest like jacket with blue metal shoulder pads underneath that vest I had a long sleeved blue tight thermal. On my lower body I wore shorts that were long enough to pass my knees, they were also white with yellow straps everywhere on them. And two big yellow and blue belt. On my feet I wore offally big clown like shoes, they reminded me of my air force one's back at the house. They were white, blue and yellow. As for accessories I wore white, blue and yellow gloves with a silver loop earring on my left ear and around my neck was a platinum chain with a platinum heart for a charm.
" Man I NEVER EVER EVER EVER… LOOKED SO GOOD!" I shouted.
Hey I never did, I mean I looked good most of the time but never this good.
I peered at the key and the deck of cards.
" The Keyblade!" I bursted all of a sudden, was remembering of where I saw it. I picked it up from the handle. As soon as I did I had already had the feeling I've wielded it before.
" Man the Keyblade! It's… It's really real!" I said. " Damn this is tight"
After about two weeks of eating apples and finding out about my situation. I became very lonely, I longed for someone to talk too. I was far too scared to travel anywhere do to all of the Heartless…er… Viruses going around. As I ventured through this jungle these dark creatures with blue circuit like symbols on them would attack me. I called them viruses, I know I'm in my computer something keeps shouting this out to me but for what reason is the Heartless looking like that. As daybreak hit I started to fall asleep, just before I dozed off I wished upon the stars that I would have someone anyone to share my loneliness with.
And the next morning, I had awaken to find two young ladies standing over me, one wearing a big black hat and the other looked… like one of those cat people from Mew Mew Power or whatever that anime's called.
And that's how I met… Kuro and Kiako… the very time I set my eyes on them I knew my life from here on was gonna change!
KEEP IN MIND THIS IS ONLY THE PROLOGUE!
