Disclaimer: I own nothing DKC.
NOTES: One thing I've neglected to tell you all, that would probbaly turn you away immediately, is that this story takes place in a human AU, but takes lore from both the games and the TV show. This chapter is very short, mostly because I had a lot of trouble translating the plot for it into words, but the next chapter is where hopefully the chapters will stay longer.

Prologue 2: A Warning
XxXxXxXxX
As an adult, DK very rarely dreamt, and even when he did, he couldn't remember it very well after waking up.
Tonight, however, was different. Tonight he dreamt, and in the dream a woman stood before him, everything about her a different shade of white with exception of her irises.
"Donkey, it's happening again," she whispered, fear in her eyes. "You've got to try to stop it."
"Huh?" he inquired. "What's coming? How am I supposed to prepare for it?"
"I know you've been told of the war from millenia ago," the mysterious woman said. "Long ago, the islands were one continent. A war nearly brought them to the brink of destruction, but four Mages split them into four islands, each taking one for their own. Artifacts were made to help keep three of the islands aloft after breaking from the land that prevented them from sinking."
"But how am I supposed to be prepared?"
"The artifacts will help. Each one is not only imbued with a sacrifice, but also with the magic of the Mages. You already have the Coconut, you just the other two." The entity looked down in despair. "To Aqua Reef, for there lies the Sapphire Tear. Then, to Credd Rock, resting place of the Ruby Sun. You must hurry!"
It was then DK woke up. Slightly disturbed, he began to write the information he had been given, hoping Cranky Kong or maybe Blunder Bear could help him decipher it in the morning.
